As I noted on Saturday, the talking points immediately went out among the left to blame the Buffalo mass shooting on Tucker Carlson and people on the right.
CNN’s S.E. Cupp continued that on Sunday with a bad take on the shooting.
The toxic garbage being pushed by MAGA, Q, Fox, and even many GOP members of Congress has REAL consequences. But these are the same people who’ll insist right-wing extremism ISN’T a threat to our natl security — it isn’t even REAL, they say. It was very real in Buffalo today.

This is slanderous to millions of people — Fox and MAGA aren’t pushing shooting people or white supremacism. And I think people on the left see Q in their sleep and are far more obsessed with it than anyone on the right. So, let’s not even pretend that Cupp or CNN is objective journalism here.
Further, let’s address the alleged manifesto of the Buffalo shooter. The manifesto said that he identified himself previously as a communist, but now sees himself more as “mild-moderate authoritarian left.”
According to PJ Media, later in the manifesto, it says:
“I would prefer to call myself a populist. But you can call me an ethno-nationalist eco-fascist national socialist if you want, I wouldn’t disagree with you.” He also repeatedly attacks capitalists, and rejected the conservative label because, he wrote, “conservativism is corporatism in disguise, I want no part of it.”
As we previously noted, the manifesto also included an anti-Semitic meme attacking Fox News.
So, not what S.E. Cupp is suggesting. But, let not S.E. Cupp be confused by facts. She works for CNN, the home of fake news.
But where has Cupp been when dealing with inflammatory rhetoric from the left? Or other attacks that might not fit her narrative? Our own Joe Cunningham pointed out that she’s predictably silent.
How about when it came to a Bernie bro targeting the GOP baseball practice? Crickets.

Floyd Corkins attacking the Family Research Council? Nothing.
Please stop pretending to give a shit about dangerous rhetoric.

Thanks, Joe. Let’s carry that a little further.
How about where was she on Waukesha? Her one tweet about that was something that wasn’t true, ignoring the racial animus that the defendant had posted in that case.

How about something very recent and pertinent to the leftist pushing pro-abortion rage — the firebombing of a pro-life group? I checked various search options for anything related to that and found nothing from Cupp, who claims to be pro-life. I scrolled through her timeline and didn’t see any posts about the left trying to intimidate SCOTUS into doing their will in regard to Roe. Indeed, the only post I found that even referenced the protests was a post she retweeted that claimed that reports about Justice Alito having to leave his home were wrong.

As we reported, it was true that Alito had to leave his home. Chalk up another one for Cupp.
Can we ever forget how CNN and some of the other liberal media described the leftist riots in 2020 as “mostly peaceful” — even as flames were shooting out of the building behind them?
So please, leftists and fake conservatives. Take it somewhere else. Because no one is buying this schtick.
