The Washington Post reports that James T. Hodgkinson, the suspect in the Alexandria shooting that wounded Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) and three others at a Republican baseball practice Wednesday morning campaigned for Bernie Sanders in the 2016 presidential election. The Post and other outlets have identified the suspect as James T. Hodgkinson, a 66-year-old man from Belleville, IL who reportedly owns a home inspections business.

The Post‘s Robert Costa interviewed a man who says that he and Hodgkinson campaigned for Sanders in Iowa:

Charles Orear, 50, a restaurant manager from St. Louis, said in an interview Wednesday that he became friendly with James T. Hodgkinson, whom law enforcement officials identified as the shooter, during their work in Iowa on Sen. Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign. Orear said Hodgkinson was a passionate progressive and showed no signs of violence or malice toward others.

Hodgkinson had reportedly moved to Alexandria recently.

You should add this to every thread you can. I posted it on my FB page.

Patriots are on this page slamming them. It looks like it has turned into a Pro Trump group for all the memes they are posting.

WHY DONT WE KNOW MORE ABOUT SHOOTER by now? I want to know about his wife. Is he s member of any church, or has he ever been? From the little I’ve read, some clues point to his having help or support. How long was he in DC?
