The first thing I did was check my brother’s FB page to make sure he hadn’t left town. People have become unhinged.
Note:It couldn’t be him. He has no car or drivers license or money.

Fifty shots were reportedly fired from near 3rd base with Congressman at 2nd base.

Despite the seriousness of the situation I couldn't help laugh at this. It has a "Tinkers-to-Evers-to-Chance" ring to it.

Senator Werner might be considered the democrat whipping up the anti republican fervor in the inane interrogation of Attorney General Sessions.

How’s about we rename the “Gabby Giffords” the “Steve Scalise”?

“They thought that kind of odd...”

Hindsight is 20-20, but, considering the latest activities of left-wing revolutionary scu&bags, it should have been considered a hint by those attending.

IMHO

The war has started.

Communist terrorist attacks encouraged by democrat leaders and the press.

Trump needs to declare a state of emergency and take matters in hand.

Neah.
This will likely be a Bernie supporter. They’re even less stable than Hillary! supporters.
And, according to the media, it will be Trumps fault for creating such a hostile environment, and the Republicans fault for their opposition to gun control.

Fifty shots were reportedly fired from near 3rd base with Congressman at 2nd base ... so surely the first responders arrived from 1st base.

@rebeccagberg

The man was wearing running clothes, asked [Jeff] Duncan: “Are those Republicans or Democrats out there practicing?” Per source familiar.

Rep Ron Desantis on Fox Business, says he and another member left a few minutes before the shooting and were stopped in the parking lot and asked if the people on the field were Republicans or Democrats. The other member with him told the guy, “Republicans”.

The big question is “Where was Tanya Harding at the time of the shooting?”

ABC News is claiming that shooter is wounded for last 30 min, not dead! Two conflicting reports, so I wonder??
