FYI, there are a ton of anti-abortion, evangelical Christians in the NGO/Non-profit community who are absolute bleeding heart liberals. I’m related to a couple of them and used to be one myself.

I agree with part of the premise you’ve presented (over and over, and over) - one would typically associate the conservative ideals with Republican politics. However, that’s not the full picture.

If this guy was as involved in the humanitarian non-profit community as he wants everyone to believe - that theory becomes much murkier.

why did he first shoot liberal Hoffman who voted WITH his fellow Democrats?

It is my understanding that Hoffman did not vote on the bill.

You're upset and don't want him in the Democratic party. We get it, but he's all yours.

Would it change your mind if he DID vote on the bill...and he voted WITH fellow Democrats AGAINST the bill? I hope so, but there's lots of irrationally about this.

"The “theory” of Hortman’s killing was further undercut by the vote of Democratic Sen. John Hoffman — who was also targeted by the suspect — against rolling back MinnesotaCare for undocumented Minnesotans."

I'm fully MAGA and don't care what, if any parry he's in. Lies don't help our cause. Rep. Hortman wasn't shot to enforce Democrat party discipline.

Not sure what political affiliation he has. Do know he had "No Kings" protest flyers with him. How many MAGA/Republicans have "No Kings" protest flyers in their vehicle? I'd argue none.

If the media could tie him to MAGA, they would run with than information everywhere. The fact that they are not, leads me to believe he has more links to democrats than MAGA/Republicans.
