It was Charlie’s lie to obfuscate the fact that the attacker who tried to kill Nancy Pelosi, but ended up nearly killing Paul Pelosi instead, was a right-winger.

Where were all the think pieces about toning down the rhetoric then? Did right-wingers hold a minute of silence for Paul? Did they swear revenge on the attacker and everyone on the same side of the political aisle?

Or did they laugh and make homophobic jokes?
