Now they did it quietly on page 35 of their data on domestic terrorism document, that was released last Friday night... but hey - give them a gold star for making the right call after almost 4 years.
The FBI quietly admitted Friday that the 2017 Alexandria, Virginia, baseball field shooting that nearly killed Rep. Steve Scalise has been classified as “domestic terrorism” carried out by a “domestic violent extremist” targeting Republicans after the bureau previously classified it as “suicide by cop.”
The revelation appears in the middle of an appendix on page 35 of a 40-page FBI-DHS report released on Friday titled “Security Strategic Intelligence Assessment and Data on Domestic Terrorism.” In a section describing approximately 85 different “FBI-Designated Significant Domestic Terrorism Incidents in the United States from 2015 through 2019,” the Alexandria baseball field shooting appears, with the FBI categorizing the perpetrator as a “Domestic Violent Extremist” and describing the incident thusly: “An individual with a personalized violent ideology targeted and shot Republican members of Congress at a baseball field and wounded five people. The subject died as a result of engagement with law enforcement.”
...
Hodgkinson, an avid liberal and supporter of Democratic presidential primary candidate and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, was killed by law enforcement. He had posted on Facebook that “Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co.” and joined other groups such as "Terminate The Republican Party" and "Join The Resistance Worldwide!!"
Thanks for posting this. Convenient for the left how quiet both the FBI and mainstream media are being on this. Oh look, leftists can be terrorists....shhhhhhh, we need to keep this quiet.

About time. I wonder how much push the rank and file in the FBI had to do to get this out past the corrupt heads?
It'll probably take four years for them to finish the investigation into the Biden* bus/Trump train bumper car fiasco, too. (that the Biden* bus and aide car caused)
The FBI has ZERO credibility, and them calling someone else a 'domestic terrorist' is absurd, (FBI has little room to talk in that dept)...
From the days of the FBIs founding, they have always been most interested in THEIR best interests! They are well known for gathering dirt on people, and storing it away until they can use it to their advantage...if anyone is a domestic terrorist...its the FBI. lol

When was this a question? I didn't need the FBI to tell me that.
