Dan Crenshaw & Staff Physically Assaulted by Right Wing Attackers Shouting ‘Eyepatch McCain’ at TX GOP
Mediaite ^ | June 18, 2022 | Caleb Howe

Posted on 06/18/2022 12:41:03 PM PDT by Fuzz

Rep. Dan Crenshaw and his staff were violently confronted at the Republican Party of Texas convention a short time ago, when far-right social media activist Alex Stein and others whom witnesses described as Proud Boys began shouting “eyepatch McCain” at him – an attempted insult coined by Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson.

A witness to the incident tells Mediaite that in addition to Stein and others being escorted out of the building, some arrests were made at the scene.

You can always tell who is a closet democrat by the way the press treats them and presents the narrative.

This interaction was certainly a lot less than how the press confronts true conservative representatives each time they question them on any issue. Crenshaw certainly wasn't attacked. And, what's with the sudden “Proud Boys” being everywhere, with the media conveniently nearby to video anything they do and everywhere they go? I know of no conservatives that act in such a manner. But these guys certainly check off all the boxes of the leftist's stereotypes of conservatives. It's almost as if there was a casting call.

Why is it OK Trump was there, twice - The only President since Clinton to do so, but not OK for anyone else? I’m not a fan of Crenshaw, but equally not a fan of hypocrisy.

Is being shouted at considered a “violent confrontation”?

It is to the stupid snowflake generation.

Even politely disagreeing with a snowflake is “assault”.

Words and speech, like Eyepatch McCain, are violence.

Words like F*ck Trump are just regular speech.

Depends on how high your feelers are on getting butthurt. I guess the air from shouted words could be fetid enough to gag a person, but violently hurt them? no.

Crenshaw is my incoming Congressman. I'm keeping an eye on him; I wonder how well he'll adapt to Kevin Brady's old district?

We'll see if he gets primaried in 2024.

And notice how the article tried to implicate Tucker Carlson in this? The left is really coming hard after Fox News.


I’m going to guess Tucker or his staff picked the “eyepatch” smear off twitter or FR. It was definitely was in wide circulation before he was using it.

Well, they probably shouldn’t have done it. But I understand.

How is yelling violent? Is Crenshaw such a pussy he needs cops to defend him from yelling?

said, "notice how the article tried to implicate Tucker Carlson in this?"

Eye Patch McCain doesn't Tucker as he said. The left is all in with Eye Patch McCain.
“Like, I hate Tucker Carlson. I despise him. But he didn’t cause this, right?” Crenshaw told The Hill. “Like, I think he’s a gross human being. Doesn’t mean that his rhetoric caused it. This was caused by a legitimately crazy person.”
