Barack Obama: I Never, Ever Blamed Violence on My Enemies Nor Did I Use My Power to Punish Them

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson

Barack Obama breaks his silence on Charlie Kirk's assassination by blaming President Trump for fueling political violence and by declaring Charlie's ideas "wrong":

"I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn't embracing them. I wasn't empowering them. I wasn't putting the weight of the United States government behind extremist views."

"I didn't know Charlie Kirk. I was generally aware of some of his ideas. I think those ideas were wrong."

"I've noticed that there's been some confusion, I think, around this lately, and frankly, coming from the White House and some of the other positions of authority that suggest, and I guess even before we had determined who the perpetrator of this evil act was, that somehow we're going to identify an enemy, we're going to suggest that somehow that enemy was at fault."

Mary Katherine Ham recalls the townhalls about Obamacare in 2009, and how Obama and his minions portrayed the right as savage and violent.

In fact, the majority of the violence at these townhalls were due to leftists and antifa-types attacking the righties who just came to make their voices heard.

Dissent, formerly the highest form of patriotism, had suffered a precipitous decline in repute since the beginning of the Obama administration, a decline that in August deepened into a nosedive.

Stead and the thousands of other Obamacare critics flooding town halls to make their dissent known had been called "extremist mobs" by the Democratic National Committee, pawns of the insurance industry by Senator Dick Durbin, "un-American" by Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer, "brownshirts" by Representative Brian Baird of Washington, "manufactured" and "Astroturf" by White House press secretary Robert Gibbs, "evilmongers" by Senator Harry Reid, accused of "fear-mongering" by the president, and been deemed "political terrorists" by Representative Baron Hill of Indiana.

...

That’s the full list of documented violence from the August meetings. In more than 400 events: one slap, one shove, three punches, two signs grabbed, one self-inflicted vandalism incident by a liberal, one unsolved vandalism incident, and one serious assault. Despite the left’s insistence on the essentially barbaric nature of Obamacare critics, the video, photographic, and police report evidence is fairly clear in showing that 7 of the 10 incidents were perpetrated by Obama supporters and union members on Obama critics. If you add a phoned death threat to Democrat representative Brad Miller of N.C., from an Obama-care critic, the tally is 7 of 11.

Speaking of Dick Durbin: the longtime socialist is retiring and thus telling the left to tone down their violent rhetoric won't hurt him. I don't believe he wants to make this statement. I think Democrat leadership asked him to make this statement so they can point to the one Democrat calling for the left to stop celebrating murder.

They get the best of both worlds: They can point to this one Democrat condemning the glorification of violence, while not angering their Murder Cultists themselves.

This makes room for Democrats still running for re-election to continue agitating for violence against ICE officers:

This Democrat congressman continues pushing the "assassin was MAGA" lie:

Dave Min @DaveMinCA

Now that the Charlie Kirk assassin has been identified as MAGA, I'm sure Donald Trump, Elon Musk and all the insane GOP politicians who called for retribution against the "RADICAL LEFT" will now shift their focus to stopping the toxic violence of the RADICAL RIGHT.
