Alyssa Farah Griffin Condemns Hypocrisy of Conservatives Calling to Take Down the Rhetoric'

"When we talk about all the political violence over the past couple years attempts on the president's life while he was campaigning, we watched Charlie Kirk, [Nancy] Pelosi's husband We've watched all these people and over and over. We did have some people step out and say, We've got to bring it down.' I would argue that's why Marjorie Taylor Greene has changed a little bit. She owned her part and said we've got to do better."

"Oftentimes, in the era of Donald Trump, he says something that is outrageous and inflammatory like the language he used in these tweets and distracts from a very important conversation that should be had. I'll start with what Sarah said. To so many of my friends on the right who were rightfully angry after Charlie Kirk's assassination and talked about the need to take down the rhetoric, that matters just as much when it is the right that is ratcheting up the rhetoric."

Alyssa Farah Griffin urged conservatives to show equal outrage over President Donald Trump's calls for execution of Democratic lawmakers as they did over threats against Charlie Kirk. Trump called for six Democratic lawmakers to face execution after they posted a video reminding troops they must disobey illegal orders. Sarah Haines contrasted inflammatory rhetoric with measured statements from military veterans emphasizing refusal of illegal orders. Haines cited past political violence and urged lowering heated language. Griffin warned that incendiary remarks distract from substantive conversations and insisted that rhetoric should be condemned consistently across the political spectrum.
