After the tragic assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller appeared on Fox News’ Hannity, vowing to use federal authority to “dismantle” violent left-wing organizations. However, during a similarly timed appearance on CNN, Sen. James Lankford (R-OK), an infamous RINO, decided to countersignal Mr. Miller and rejected the tactic of cracking down on the left.
For some reason, the Republican Senator, right in the wake of the horrific slaying of all-star MAGA commentator and vote driver Charlie Kirk, chose to focus not on leftist radicals who have attacked the right, but on 30-year-old examples of Right-wing violence. Naturally, he was skewered for attacking those he claimed to be on his side instead of the more relevant tragedy.
In any case, the irritating RINO claimed, “Well, I would say if there’s someone preparing to be able to take out an aggressive act against someone or to be able to violate the law, that is the role of law enforcement to be able to protect Americans.”
Still not playing to the Demcorats, Lankford claimed, “We need to be careful in how we talk about this, whether it is talking about white nationalists and preparing to be able to attack and to be able to carry an attack, or to somebody like a Timothy McVeigh that hated the government intensely and in my state, 30 years ago, murdered 168 people in Oklahoma City.”
“Or whether it is a leftist group that is interested in actually attacking a pro-life center that we saw several years ago, or whether it’s carrying out some other act of terrorism or trying to be able to intimidate people,” he said, unable to take a strong stand.
Still not done, he whined, “We should have equal, equal application of the law to say, ‘If you’re choosing to be able to carry out an aggressive, violent act, that should be something that we actually try to interdict anytime that we possibly can.'”
Concluding his irritating comments, the Senator stated, “Again, thinking something, talking about something, is very different than carrying out that action. We have freedom of speech, but you do not have the freedom to be able to plan, prepare and carry out an attack against another American, no matter what your ideology.”

Reacting to the clip, one user stated, “Sen Lankford is asked to respond to Stephen Miller’s comments about law enforcement aggressively pursuing leftwing organizations that foment violence. He immediately goes into “both sides” mode and leads off his reply talking about white supremacy.”
Watch the clip here:
For context, the cowardly RINO was responding to comments from White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, who pointed to the “domestic terrorism movement” in the U.S. and promised to “take on” “radical left organizations” that are “fomenting” violence.
Wrapping up his comments, he noted, “Under President Donald Trump’s leadership, I don’t care how – It could be a RICO charge, a conspiracy charge, conspiracy against the United States, insurrection – but we are going to do what it takes to dismantle the organizations and the entities that are fomenting riots, that are doxxing, that are trying to inspire terrorism and that are committing acts of wanton violence. It has to stop.”
