Stop the misinformation. Fact check yourself.

You have claimed that “the left” is responsible for political violence in America. The data says otherwise. • The Anti-Defamation League’s annual reports show that the overwhelming majority of extremist killings in the United States over the past decade were committed by right-wing extremists. In both 2023 and 2024, ADL found that 100% of extremist-related murders were tied to the far right. • The Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Threat Assessments (2020, 2024, 2025) all identify white supremacist and racially/ethnically motivated violent extremists as the most persistent and lethal domestic threat. • Research from the Center for Strategic & International Studies confirms that since 2014, far-right attacks and plots have far outpaced those from the far left. • Even the Washington Post’s analysis of open-source and court data found that right-wing terrorism and plots “greatly eclipsed” left-wing incidents and caused more deaths. This isn’t partisan spin — it’s the record established by government agencies, independent think tanks, and long-running extremist tracking organizations. If you continue to repeat the false claim that left-wing violence is the greater threat, you are ignoring the evidence, misleading the public, and undermining national security policy. I urge you to stop spreading misinformation and start addressing the documented threat of right-wing extremist violence in America.
