The unforutnately named Matt Gertz has a article linked here.EW: Fox News is the Republican Party. Here are over 400 examples proving it.
My comprehensive, by the numbers effort to explain how Fox News went from a GOP propaganda outlet to the most powerful player in Republican politics over the last five years.

Even if the lawmakers acknowledge mental health problems, they didn't take them seriously. In response to the Sutherland Springs church shooting, Donald Trump, said at a press conference that "I think that mental health is a problem here. Based on preliminary reports, this was a very deranged individual with a lot of problems over a very long period of time. We have a lot of mental health problems in our country, as do other countries, but this isn't a guns situation ... we could go into it but it's a little bit soon to go into it."
He acknowledged the mental health problem, but never tried to do anything about it.
Devin Patrick Kelley, the Sutherland Springs church shooter, was already a convicted felon who was admitted to a mental hospital for violent behavior. He was charged with assaulting his wife and fracturing his toddler stepson's skull. He was convicted of those charges.
Devin Kelley was brought before a general court-martial on four charges: assault on his wife, aggravated assault on his stepson, two charges of pointing a loaded gun at his wife, and two counts of threatening his wife with an unloaded gun. In November 2012, Kelley pleaded guilty to two counts of Article 128 UCMJ, for the assault of his wife and stepson. In return, the weapons charges were dropped. He was sentenced to 12 months of confinement and a reduction in rank to Airman Basic. He appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, but was unsuccessful. In 2014, he was dismissed from the Air Force with a bad conduct discharge.
The background checks did not prevent him from legally purchasing guns and ammo.
The backround check didnt stop him from getting a gun because of a mess up on the Air Force for not reporting the conviction. Had they the back round check would have stopped it. But may because of a case like this have the back round check include conviction and charges in a military court also. So if it is not reported then they could still turn up in a back round check?

Beware to not link this kind of event and mental illness…
Terrorists do such things and they are not ill… they believe they do the right thing…
For my part, whatever the motive of the killer, there’s no reason to have a gun if it’s no for sport or hunting…

So, church shooter was a Taiwan hatred thing, based on his residing there years ago, and perhaps the China/Taiwan thing. So sayeth his notebooks, apparently. Brave pastor and congregants, IMO.
In 2021 firearms were the No. 1 cause of deaths for children ages 1-19.

The GOP leadership and Focus on the Family is outraged and taking immediate action to change gun laws and stop the needless violence.

Church shooter had himself a bag of Molotov cocktails, and seems to have planned this out. Glad he didn't bust them out, it could have been even worse.
I'm shocked. The GoP are putting out so much legislation to stop youth being harmed by Trans athletes and hormone blockers because they care about the Children here! That's what they are saying their motivations are and we should just trust them and question the motives of everyone else. /s
The GOP are going to point fingers at everyone they even think is responsible. Video games, Rap Music, The Dems for being so soft on crime.
All the whole they are ignoring that they and their fake News station have been spouting and enabling racists and white supremists for years. They wont say one word about that. But they will yell about the liberal media planting false flags and how we may never know the real reason for the shooting in Buffalo and the Damn Dems are looking to blame white people again.

So not content with stripping civil rights, the illegitimate court is now legalizing an easy method for bribery.The Supreme Court on Monday ruled in favor of Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas in a case involving the use of campaign funds to repay personal campaign loans, dealing the latest blow to campaign finance regulations.
The court said that a federal cap on candidates using political contributions after an election to recoup personal loans made to their campaign was unconstitutional.
