FULL TITLE:
Rep. Steve Scalise says recovering from congressional baseball shooting was like rebuilding Humpty Dumpty
Scalise was shot with a 7.62mm SKS rifle. The shooter had a 9mm pistol with him but it was not used. So much for accuracy in the reporting.
Notice no mention of the shooter as “left-wing extremist” or “alt-Left” or even “Democrat activist”...
Rep. Scalise thanks his security detail in the article. I think there are still a lot of unanswered questions about what level of security they were providing while sitting in their vehicle some distance away from the ball field.
James Thomas Hodgkinson had participated in the Bernie Sanders presidential campaign during the 2016 United States presidential election...
He wrote 27 letters to the editor of the Belleville News-Democrat between March 2008 and September 2012 on various political and economic topics, many of which were anti-Republican.[55]
On May 22, 2017, Hodgkinson wrote “Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It’s Time to Destroy Trump & Co.” ...
He belonged to numerous politically-oriented Facebook groups, including those named “Terminate the Republican Party,” ...
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, which took over the investigation, said on June 14 that it was too early to ascribe a motive for the shootings. [!?!?!?!?!?!?]

I saw this on TV. He still has a lot of trouble walking. Two canes and hobbling from side to side.
Poor NYDN writers. They’re so anti-gun that they don’t even know the weapon Scales was shot with. They say it was a 9 mm bullet that wounded him when it was a 7.62 mm bullet fired from a SKS rifle that used 7.62 x 39 ammo. His injuries would’ve been a lot less severe from a 9 mm pistol bullet.
Powerful testimony from this man. He thanks his bravery security detail, the Army Ranger medic and prayers from everyone. #GodlyTestimony. I had to watch it, even though it was CBS.
I'd say that was faked emotion by Lyin' Ryan...at best.
Glad he’s back. He’s fortunate to be exempt from Obamacare.
Caught the episode this morning. Scalise rally looks good all things considered. By the Grace of GOD he continues to stand.
I think we’re all glad he’s doing so much better.
And for the left it was a one day story.
House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) reportedly became emotional when he saw his longtime colleague at the Capitol on Thursday...
Sad that he made it through?
What could one real man and Ryan possibly have in common?
And P Trump saved him from the Seth Rich Dr Death
Even brought his own personal doctor
Pence went the next morning
Wonder why SWAT went to Pelosi’s before going to the ball field
God bless and protect Steve Scalise, his family and loved ones, this nation and the whole world. Amen.

Note the difference in coverage and Congressional reaction for Steve Scalise versus that Gabby Giffords chick
Can we get Steve Scalise as the new Speaker of the House?
