'The MAGA Republicans are a domestic terrorist cell':
ex-Breitbart staffer.
Former Breitbart staffer operative, Kurt Bardella, labeled the MAGA Republican caucus as so far to
the extreme that they're dangerous.
The level of lawlessness seen by MAGA Republicans has included the attempted
insurrection,
voter fraud,
a kidnapping attempt,
bombing plots,
assassination threats,
threats against the National Archives,
threats against IRS agents,
threats against judges,
reporters,
FBI agents,
and a slew of elected officials.
"Let's be clear. The Republican Party, the MAGA Republicans are a domestic terrorist cell operating
in America," said Bardella.
"This is a group of people who have decided that it
is acceptable to use violence and threats of violence to try to achieve the political means.
That it's okay to threaten law enforcement to stop them from doing their job and anytime you have people dedicated to using violent rhetoric,
to incite violence against other people —
that's terrorism.
That's what we're seeing from the Republican Party."
Christina Greer, associate professor at Fordham University, agreed with the assessment, saying that President Joe Biden is finally realizing that the far-right groups are domestic terrorists and that it's his responsibility to call it like it is.
"This is the Republican Party," she said.
"This is who they are. It could no longer hide behind tax breaks. If you are in for a penny you are in for a pound.
You are supporting, aiding and abetting people or threatening journalists and other citizens, threatening other politicians. Threatening law enforcement.
It is all part and parcel.
If you're in the Republican Party this is what you stand for.
