My friend and lodestar Victor Davis Hanson is back on the case. He returns with a few words about the battle of the Twin Cities:
Victor Davis Hanson RETURNS: Surgery, Cancer Battle, and Minnesota’s ‘Hypocritical Insurrectionists’
There is “no coherent principle” to the left’s ongoing “utterly hypocritical” “insurrectionary movement” in Minnesota, argues Daily Signal senior contributor @VDHanson in his first post-surgery video appearance.
Nearly five years ago, these same people lambasted Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed 14-year Air Force veteran who was shot and killed by the U.S. Capitol Police on Jan. 6, 2021.
The left cheered as hundreds of demonstrators were arrested for allegedly assaulting officers and carrying firearms.
Meanwhile, they said it was perfectly OK for somebody like Alex Pretti “to go to a demonstration with a military-grade semiautomatic weapon, with extra clips, and just stick it in his waistband, visible sight of anybody, and then get into a brawl with law enforcement officers,” Hanson continues….
Thank you, VDH. We are grateful for your return. We will file it under Answered Prayers.
