Rep. Steve Scalise calls the takeover of the Capitol 'domestic terrorism' in must-read thread on political violence

Steve Scalise, who was almost killed in 2017 when a crazed left-wing activist opened fire on a practice for the annual Congressional baseball game, served up this must-read thread this morning on why “Republicans and Democrats alike must have the moral clarity to call out violent rhetoric whenever it’s spoken, not just when it’s politically convenient”:

He did not mince words and called what happened at the Capitol “domestic terrorism”:

And he called for an end to “selectively condemning” violence:

“Both the politically-motivated gunman who shot me on a baseball field and the anarchists who rioted at the Capitol were radicalized by extreme rhetoric” and “It would be naive to think that either of these actions occurred in a vacuum”:
