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.

“They got physical with multiple people, including hitting them with cameras,” a witness at the scene said. “His campaign manager was assaulted by being pushed aggressively into a pillar.”
 
He's right; non-MAGA conservatives need to leave the Republican Party. Doesn't matter if they join the Democratic Party or form their own but they need to leave the cesspool that is today's GOP.

 
Your link doesn’t show what happened in the video. So need that to make a judgment. I respect Crenshaw for service but he disgusts me in government and seems he is filling his wallet to sell us out. He has become a disgusting American. That said need to see how this violent action happened. See the left excuses it, real conservatives and libertarians actually believe in hard sentences for creating violence.

Oh, so that justifies what happened?

That's nice.o_O:unsure::wacko::whistles:
 
Yup, bogus as I thought. From what I saw it was the other doing the pushing.
 
If you watch the video you can see the people surrounding Crenshaw just about knock over the photographer.

They shoulda' gotten out of his damn way; instead, they crowd his space. What's he supposed to do, stand there and take it?

Because photographers are known for being violent 😂

No, because they were pushing and shoving, trying to get to him, that's why they got shoved outta' the way.

The only shoving shown in that video was from the people that did not like being yelled at with questions. That said even though they didn’t start anything and we’re not threatening them it felt like a leftist democrat tactic and I don’t like it. But they did nothing wrong from what you showed.

Oh, you mean the ones getting in their faces, those people?
