Moreno’s soulless tweets an outrage
After a weekend of presidential self-glorification failure, “No Kings” success and escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, there was a political assassination in Minnesota.

GOP members of Congress have shared some thoughts on social media.
Mike Lee of Utah showed us his lack of humanity and seems unapologetic about it. Of course, our own Sen. Bernie Moreno backs up this atrocious excuse of a human by blaming the extreme left. That’s how you make Ohio proud, Bernie.
A gunman with a list of Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota murders two people in their home and attempts to assassinate four others. There might have once been a moment when this act would have been met with universal condemnation, but no more.
Today, we have legislators pointing fingers at the ideology of their political opponents, blaming unconscionable actions on one side while ignoring the same behavior among their own.
When confronted by his ignorance, Sen. Lee did the most Republican thing by running away from cameras to hide. Bernie Moreno showed his allegiance by dodging questions about the soulless tweets.
Calling the gunman an extreme leftist based on an appointment from a Democratic governor while failing to acknowledge numerous tweets of the killer, espousing the Republican agenda and attending a number of Trump rallies.
That’s how you research, Bern!
When you clapped back at a reporter with the, “You guys call Trump a dictator and Hitler so what’s the problem?” that was nearly flawless deflection.
Then yelled out how you already answered the question you did not answer before you ran away like Josh Hawley on Jan. 6. Perfection.
Ohio proud, Ohio strong, right senator?
