You might remember Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and her intelligent and pointed questioning of national security aide Fiona Hill and David Holmes, our diplomat in Ukraine as they testified before the House Intelligence Committee on Nov. 21, 2019 in the public impeachment hearing of President Trump. She was magnificent.
For her efforts, Stefanik has become the latest target of leftist intolerance and hatred for anyone who disagrees with their brand of politics.
Stefanik was coming out of the grocery store with her husband when she found a note on their car. “Rot in hell FASCIST PIG,” the note read, obviously written by a cowardly leftist. She tweeted the following:
My husband and I went grocery shopping this morning before district events and enjoyed chatting with constituents throughout the store.Stefanik really pissed people off on the left and other anti-Trumpers when, during the impeachment hearings in the House, she challenged Intel Chair Adam Schiff’s effort to cut off her ability to speak when yielded time by Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), the ranking member on the Committee.

She earned a lot of praise for the way she handled herself and for standing up to the grandstanding Schiff. However, it made her a target for those on the left.
She called on her opponent, Tedra Cobb, to condemn the action. While Cobb said it was wrong, she didn’t specifically condemn such actions and she even suggested it was somehow the same as Stefanik calling her “Taxin’ Tedra,” which is clearly a political criticism.
Cobb tweeted:
@EliseStefanik you’re right, that type of discourse is damaging and wrong.Stefanik responded to Cobb's tweet:
I think it’s time you joined me in pledging not to name call in this campaign. I’d love to work with you to set a better example for #NY21. https://t.co/Gl0rTr3SMW

This is not a condemnation.Then we have "Screamin' Howard" Dean, the lunatic ex-Democratic presidential candidate and obviously a crap-monger who tweeted:
Here is my opponent equating “Taxin” with “ROT IN HELL FASCIST PIG”
One is a policy difference (you have voted numerous times to raise taxes) the other is a vicious, vile, sick attack.
They are not the same and voters know it. https://t.co/DGmmWHcwZW

I don’t condone this, but “as ye sow, so shall ye reap”. There is no excuse for the note writer or for you. You are a shame to your district and to a democratic United States. https://t.co/k1rQL6rgnAFor more on the moron [Dean] check out the video below.

Low-functioning Democrats like Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) have encouraged harassment of GOP officials. Waters told the left to get up in their face when you see them and “push back,” let them know they “aren’t welcome anywhere.” She was referring to the notion of harassing Republicans who are out in public places such as restaurants.
