Republican Cowardice Can’t Be Ignored — Carmela Ciliberti sent the below letter to Pennsylvania State Rep. John Lawrence (R-13) challenging him to explain why he found it in himself to condemn the Jan. 6, 2021 protests at the Capitol but let the attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh pass by with out a peep.
That’s a fair question. The suspicion is that condemning the protests got him brownie points with the establishment and their media pets, and that he saw no gain in expressing concern about the real political violence involving Justice Kavanaugh.
Or the real political violence agains Steve Scalise and Rand Paul for that matter.
You know, this political violence strongly tilts in one direction. Even at the Jan. 6 protest, the only ones killed were protestors.
Carmela ran an unsuccessful challenge to the establishment-favored incumbent in the May primary.
