Fox News
Over a dozen state representatives from Texas are demanding Congress include the rhetoric used against Trump in their assassination attempt investigation.
State Rep. Ellen Troxclair, R-Texas, spearheaded a letter to the committee and Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., Wednesday, requesting they also look into "grotesque depictions of President Trump and the tens of millions of fellow Americans that support him as ‘enemies’ or ‘threats to democracy’ ahead of the assassination attempt." Aubrie Spady is a Writer for Fox News Digital.
"Americans deserve answers," the lawmakers wrote, first thanking the committee for opening an investigation into the deadly incident. "At minimum, we need to understand how the attempted assassination was able to occur and what will be done to ensure it does not happen again."
