Fox’s Jessica Tarlov took Republicans to the woodshed over their blatant hypocrisy when it comes to right-wing violence vs left-wing violence during a segment on this Monday’s The Five. While discussing Sen. John Fetterman’s interview with Maria Bartiromo over the weekend, where Fetterman said he’s not changing parties, but did his usual routine of late of crapping all over other Democrats, Tarlov’s cohost Lawrence Jones asked her about Fetterman’s statement on everyone “toning down” the rhetoric.
JONES: Jessica, is the base driving this? Is this why there can’t be moderation right now? Is it because the base wants fighters?
TARLOV: Well, the base wants fighters, but the base doesn’t want people to die. Those are very separate issues. And the conversation that Fetterman was having with Maria and something that he posted on Twitter, which the deputy White House press secretary did as well, was this chart that Axios published about this rise in left-wing violence, and the right was gleefully tweeting it, ignoring the fact that the right-wing violence was much larger than the left-wing violence, which is the truth about it.
Here’s the chart she was referring to, which you’ll never see actually shown on Fox:
