New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Directed Supporters to Zeldin Campaign Event Hours Before Failed Attack

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul sent out a press release urging her supporters to “RSVP” to her Republican challenger Rep. Lee Zeldin’s upcoming campaign stop, just hours before a man rushed the stage at one of Zeldin’s events in a failed attack.

While Zeldin spoke at a campaign event in Fairport, New York, a man reportedly rushed the stage with a weapon in an apparent attempt to stab him on Thursday evening. Fortunately, Zeldin grabbed the attacker’s wrist long enough for other event attendees to step in and subdue the attacker.

However, as people like GOP strategist Arthur Schwartz and New York GOP Chairman Nick Langworthy pointed out, Hochul’s campaign sent out a press release just hours before the failed attack on Zeldin that blasted out the time and location of several of Zeldin campaign’s upcoming stops.

Hochul claimed that Zeldin and his team would spread “dangerous lies, misinformation, and his far-right agenda at these campaign events.”

“‘Big Lie’ Lee and his entourage of extremists kick off the statewide ‘MAGA Republican’ Bus Tour, which will make stops across the state peddling dangerous lies, misinformation, and his far-right agenda,” Hochul’s release read.

The New York governor also claimed that Zeldin “will be joined by top anti-abortion advocates, NRA enthusiasts, and a cast of extremist groups.”

Hochul urged her supporters to “RSVP to hear about Zeldin’s ‘Election Integrity Task Force,’ and his recent election fraud scandal in which his campaign photocopied over 11,000 duplicate petition signatures.”

“You sent your supporters after him. And they came,” Schwartz tweeted.

“Governor, you seemed to suggest there should have been vigilante violence by inaccurately describing that campaign event as filled with ‘far-right extremists,'” Andy Ngo tweeted. “That is the same language and dog whistle used by Antifa militants to urge comrades to injure or kill targets.”

The guy who tried to stab Zeldin is already out of jail, he posted no bond based on NY’s bail reform laws

Yet it is Sen Hawley’s “dangerous rhetoric” that puts “trans” (i.e., perverts) people at risk of violence

“his dangerous lies, misinformation, and his far-right agenda”

Like I said, Hillary 2.0 “Far right agenda” = Getting rid of the absolutely insane no bail law, firing DA’s that refuse to do their job, refunding the police.

Zeldin had to hold off his own attacker. He doesn’t have Armed security?

I just read that.

So attempted assassination is now a minor offense. The Democrats and the left need to be wiped from the political landscape.

I heard that, absolutely utterly freakin’ insane beyond all that is insane. Attempted murder of a political candidate and they treat it like he littered.

If the crap I saw going on at my polling place on primary day is any indication, I don’t think Deep State is too worried.

Hochul could personally hand the next perp a weapon and Deep State can still ensure she wins.

It sounds like Hochul was using ‘trigger’ phrases to activate someone from the Demonicrats’ collection of deranged terrorists and assassins.

Makes me wonder if she paid the thug to do this. I wouldn’t doubt it, she has that insane Pelosi look.

Maybe Hochul is an anti-Semite.

Violent crazy Democrats spurred on by their leaders.

The Left in America did this back in the 1920s, too.

Blew up Wall Street. People forget.

I don’t see a difference between what Harridan Hochul did and what Trump allegedly did on Jan 6.

Is anyone else starting to think the larger progressive plan is to keep turning up the pressure on the American people until the right finally responds in kind and then impose martial law to quell the “mostly peaceful” rioting on the right and when, as they expect, that doesn’t work they will call in the blue helmets(along with the Chinese army) to impose a “new and more workable government” to at last spread liberty and freedom to All Americans once again, progressive leftist style, where we truly will have Nothing and be happy...or else?

Probably time for vigilante justice.

“..The guy who tried to stab Zeldin is already out of jail, he posted no bond based on NY’s bail reform laws...”

From now on, they need to be killed there right on the spot....with their own weapon.
