"Elie, I take your point that you think it's both sides, but let me just say the data, respectfully, disagrees with you. According to government and independent analysis, since 2001, 85% of political deaths have been from right-wing extremists. There was a study posted on the DOJ about right-wing extremism being one of the biggest issues in America. Of course, it quietly disappeared when Donald Trump came into office, submitted Cross."
"When you think about the big right-wing attacks that have happened in the past 10 years or so, there was the Dylann Roof shooting in Charleston. There was the Tree of Life Synagogue attack. There was The El Paso Walmart incident. There were the 2020 arrest of the 13 men who attempted to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer. So every time I hear people say it's both sides, there is no data to back that up, and there's not even a lot of anecdotal evidence to say that."
Government and independent analysis indicate that since 2001, 85% of political deaths resulted from right-wing extremists. A DOJ study identifying right-wing extremism as a major threat was posted then removed after Donald Trump became president. Notable right-wing attacks cited include the Dylann Roof shooting in Charleston, the Tree of Life Synagogue massacre, the El Paso Walmart attack, and the 2020 plot to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer. The position asserted is that outspoken racists are solidly aligned with the MAGA movement and that failing to acknowledge this allows the threat to be overlooked. A contrasting point accepts the data but notes political violence has targeted figures across the spectrum.
