**Disturbing Revelations: FBI Faces Scrutiny Over Labeled Domestic Terrorism Incident**
In a shocking turn of events, a new House Intelligence Committee report has brought to light the FBI's alarming mishandling of the 2017 congressional baseball shooting that nearly took the life of Representative Steve Scalise.
This investigation reveals that the FBI initially classified the leftist attack as a "suicide by cop" incident rather than a politically motivated act of domestic terrorism.
The shooter, James Hodgkinson, an outspoken supporter of Senator Bernie Sanders, aimed specifically for Republican lawmakers during a practice session in Alexandria, Virginia.
The report's findings are a consequence of relentless efforts by Republican lawmakers to uncover the truth behind Hodgkinson's motivations.
Despite clear evidence and Hodgkinson’s online postings expressing anti-Trump sentiments, the FBI remained steadfast in its refusal to recognize the attack as domestic terrorism for years.
The report highlights how the FBI's classification downplayed the ideological animosity towards conservatives evident in Hodgkinson’s actions.
The situation illustrates an apparent bias within the FBI, particularly during the tenure of former Acting Director Andrew McCabe.
Contrasting the FBI's stance, both the Department of Homeland Security and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence labeled the shooting as domestic violent extremism, pointing to a failure by the FBI to follow the facts.
It wasn't until 2021, following significant pressure from GOP lawmakers, that the agency reclassified the shooting as domestic terrorism, quietly acknowledging that Hodgkinson was indeed a "domestic violent extremist."
Scalise himself has been vocally critical of the FBI's handling of the incident, stating, "This report definitively shows the FBI completely mishandled the investigation into the Congressional baseball shooting."
He urged the new FBI Director Kash Patel, appointed by former President Donald Trump, to take further steps toward accountability in the agency, ensuring that political bias no longer overshadows the mission of truth and justice.
The escalation of this issue comes at a time when conservative voices are rallying for transparency and reform within the FBI.
Patel, recognizing the urgent need for change, is taking steps to restore public trust in the FBI, highlighting his commitment to addressing both historical missteps and present challenges like the rise of dangerous networks threatening American families.
As this situation unfolds, conservatives across the nation remain vigilant, advocating for an FBI that adheres strictly to objective facts, free from political bias, as America navigates a complex landscape of governance and law enforcement.
