Today’s dramatic shooting attack on Congressmen during an early morning baseball practice appears to have been politically motivated.
According to RealClearNews reporter Rebecca Berg, “Rep. Jeff Duncan plans to give a statement to police regarding a conversation he had with the shooter before leaving practice early” and she notes that “The man was wearing running clothes, asked Duncan: “Are those Republicans or Democrats out there practicing?””
