Cernovich: Congressional Republicans Are To Blame For Where We Are With Normalized Sectarian Violence

Mike Cernovich blames Congressional Republicans for doing nothing as sectarian political violence has been normalized over the last decade:

MIKE CERNOVICH: The murder of Charlie Kirk is not remotely surprising, although it is tragic. Everyone is trying to collect their thoughts on this, but there are a few people who are responsible and need to take accountability. They need to be called out, and I consider chief among them congressional Republicans. The way of life of a MAGA person-myself included-has been the specter of political violence, knowing any day you could be attacked. These are not abstract concerns. You can see footage, hundreds of clips, from people who went to the San Jose Trump rally in 2015. The Chicago Trump rally was shut down. The DeploraBall, at the inauguration held in 2017. Even when congressional Republicans were almost mass-murdered in the Scalise shooting-the congressional baseball shooting, however you call it-Republicans refused to take action or do anything. That leads me to wonder if they are in the service of the demons, in the service of the same people who are trying to destroy the country. Because that’s what it looks like to me. We see what happens after January 6. We see what Democrats can do. We see what the government can do using lawful means. And nothing has happened. We’ve seen Republicans in Congress spring to action when college kids are debating Israel. Right? Which-don’t get me wrong, shared enemy. I don’t like those leftists either. I’m glad they’re being deported. But I haven’t seen the world stop after the murder of Charlie Kirk the way the world had to stop because some left-wing, blue-haired girl flipped the phone of an adult male with an IDF shirt. Oh, we’ve got to stop the presses for that. But when you can’t even be a Trump supporter without facing people trying to kill you-and there are cases, like the one in North Dakota where a teenage boy was run down, and prosecutors claimed it wasn’t politically motivated even though the kid was a prominent Trump supporter and was talking about Trump. So that’s where we are. I’m seeing congressional Republicans sort of give Hallmark memories and a Hallmark sentimentality. But that isn’t what we need or want at this point. We need to know if they’re going to take action. Because it really concerns me what will happen if RICO isn’t used to shut down Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Reid Hoffman, Steve Jobs’ widow, and the ex-wife of Jeff Bezos. It really upsets me if they aren’t defrocked and defunded immediately. Because I do not want to live in a world-nor do I think you do-and I don’t care, billionaires, I don’t think anybody wants to live in a world where you have normalized sectarian violence. I’m against it. Republicans in Congress, though-I hold you responsible.
