Right-wing extremists have carried out nearly all politically motivated killings in the last 25 years. Here’s an incomplete list, with some international cases included for their influence on U.S. attacks.
I have also included a list of left-wing extremist murders from the same time period.

America has beautiful cancer, the best in the world. I love our cancer, it's so great. Other countries, not good countries, refuse to buy our cancer, it's very unfair.
The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food.
The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of what are called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

This from the same clown who spent the better part of a decade bashing the Democratic Party’s left - people like Bernie Sanders and AOC. Now he's repackaging their positions and pitching them as his own bold, original ideas. That’s been Carville’s M.O. forever. He’s a weathervane.

30 years of climate summits. Billions spent. Conferences, speeches, promises. And we’ve achieved nothing. In fact, we're moving backwards.
This is a failure of leadership, a total collapse of political will, and a damning indictment of the entire COP process. Nothing less than a disgrace.
