The shooter in this morning’s attack at the Republican Congressional Baseball Game practice has been identified by the Washington Post as James T. Hodgekinson, 66, of Belleville, Illinois. Hodgkinson owns a home inspection business. Five people, including Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA), were injured in Wednesday morning’s shooting in Alexandria, Virginia.
The shooter asked Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) whether the practice was for the Republicans or the Democrats prior to opening fire.
A Facebook page for a “James T. Hodgkinson” of Belleville, features an image of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) as the cover photo, and an image praising “democratic socialism” as his main profile image.
One good thing; Hodgkinson was shot to pieces and killed by Alexandria police.
He wanted to ‘terminate the Republican party’:
The shooter who was killed during gunfire at practice for a congressional baseball game Wednesday morning was from Belleville.
The shooter was James T. Hodgkinson of Belleville, who belonged to a number of anti-Republican groups, including one called “Terminate the Republican Party.”
President Donald Trump said Hodgkinson died during gunfire exchanged with congressional security workers.
Hodgkinson, 66, owned a home-inspection business. Hodgkinson was a licensed home inspector from 1994 to 1997, when his license expired, according to records from the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. He also held a license from 2003 to 2016, but it was not renewed.
Two days ago, Hodgkinson posted an angry tweet about President Donald Trump on Facebook.
“I Want to Say Mr. President, for being an ass hole you are Truly the Biggest Ass Hole We Have Ever Had in the Oval Office,” he wrote on Facebook.
The Left is the biggest hate group on the planet.
