“We see it on Fox News, we see it on the internet but we also we see it from our commander-in-chief,” O’Rourke said. “And he is encouraging this. He doesn’t just tolerate it, he encourages it, calling Mexicans immigrants rapists and criminals.”
The Texas Democrat said that Trump’s racist rhetoric “doesn’t just offend us,” it also “encourages the kind of violence that we’re seeing, including in my home town of El Paso yesterday.”
Tapper asked O’Rourke if he agreed with Gov. Jay Inslee (D)’s charge that Trump is a “white nationalist.”
“Yes, I do,” the former congressman replied.

EL PASO, Texas (AP) — The shooting that killed 20 people at a crowded El Paso shopping area will be handled as a domestic terrorism case, federal authorities said Sunday as they weighed hate-crime charges against the gunman that could carry the death penalty.
A local prosecutor announced that he would bring capital murder charges against the suspect, saying the assailant "lost the right to be among us."
The attack on Saturday morning was followed less than a day later by another shooting that claimed nine lives in a nightlife district of Dayton, Ohio. That shooter was killed by police.
Investigators were focusing on whether the El Paso attack was a hate crime after the emergence of a racist, anti-immigrant screed that was posted online shortly beforehand. Detectives sought to determine if it was written by the man who was arrested. The border city has figured prominently in the immigration debate and is home to 680,000 people, most of them Latino.
Using a rifle, the El Paso gunman opened fire in an area packed with as many as 3,000 people during the busy back-to-school shopping season. More than two dozen people were wounded, some with life-threatening injuries, police said.
Federal officials were treating the attack as a domestic terrorism case, according to the U.S. attorney.
The Justice Department was weighing federal hate-crime charges that would carry the death penalty, according to a person familiar with the department's decision-making process. The person was not authorized to speak on the record and spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press.
Despite initial reports of possible multiple gunmen, the man in custody was believed to be the only shooter, police said.
Two law enforcement officials who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity identified him as 21-year-old Patrick Crusius. Authorities did not release his name at a news conference but said he was arrested without police firing any shots. He is from Allen, which is a nearly 10-hour drive from El Paso.
There was no immediate indication that he had an attorney.
Police say more than two dozen people were wounded in the attack at a shopping area about 5 miles (8 kilometers) from the main border checkpoint with Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. Many of the victims were shot at a Walmart.
"The scene was a horrific one," El Paso Police Chief Greg Allen said, adding that many of the 26 people who were hurt had life-threatening injuries.
The shooting came less than a week after a 19-year-old gunman killed three people and injured 13 others at the popular Gilroy Garlic Festival in California before dying of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Adriana Quezada said she was in the women's clothing section of the Walmart with her two children when she heard gunfire.
"But I thought they were hits, like roof construction," Quezada, 39, said of the shots.
Her 19-year-old daughter and 16-year-old son threw themselves to the ground, then ran out of the store through an emergency exit. They were not hurt, Quezada said.
Relatives said a 25-year-old woman who was shot while apparently trying to shield her 2-month-old son was among those killed, while Mexican officials said three Mexican nationals were among the dead and six more were wounded.
Residents quickly volunteered to give blood to the wounded. President Donald Trump tweeted: "God be with you all!"
Democratic presidential candidate and former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke, who is from El Paso and was at a candidate forum Saturday in Las Vegas, appeared shaken after receiving news of the shooting in his hometown.
He said he heard early reports that the shooter might have had a military-style weapon, saying we need to "keep that (expletive) on the battlefield. Do not bring it into our communities."
In the document that was posted online shortly before the shooting, the writer expressed concern that an influx of Hispanics into the United States will replace aging white voters, potentially turning Texas blue in elections and swinging the White House to the Democrats.
The writer was also critical of Republicans for what he described as close ties to corporations and degradation of the environment. Though a Twitter account that appears to belong to Crusius included pro-Trump posts praising the plan to build more border wall, the writer of the online document says his views on race predated Trump's campaign and that any attempt to blame the president for his actions was "fake news."
Though the writer denied he was a white supremacist, the document says "race mixing" is destroying the nation and recommends dividing the United States into territorial enclaves determined by race. The first sentence of the four-page document expresses support for the man accused of killing 51 people at two New Zealand mosques in March after posting his own screed with a conspiracy theory about nonwhite migrants replacing whites.
El Paso Mayor Dee Margo said he knew the shooter was not from the city.
"It's not what we're about," the mayor said at the news conference with Gov. Greg Abbott and the police chief.
In the hours after the shooting, authorities blocked streets near a home in Allen associated with the suspect. Officers appeared to speak briefly with a woman who answered the door of the gray stone house and later entered the residence.
El Paso County is more than 80% Latino, according to the latest census data. Tens of thousands of Mexicans legally cross the border each day to work and shop in the city.
Trump visited in February to argue that walling off the southern border would make the U.S. safer, while city residents and O'Rourke led thousands on a protest march past the barrier of barbed wire-topped fencing and towering metal slats.
O'Rourke stressed that border walls have not made his hometown safer. The city's murder rate was less than half the national average in 2005, the year before the start of its border fence. Before the wall project started, El Paso had been rated one of the three safest major U.S. cities going back to 1997.

The #DaytonShooter murdered his sister and her boyfriend. He murdered white and black people. Men and women. Not likely that he had a political motive. Stop ascribing things where they are not warranted or known.
Left tries dishonesty in bid to turn El Paso shooter into a Republican
We already know that the left is trying to pin the El Paso and Dayton mass shootings, done by madmen, to something President Trump instigated. The El Paso killer, in a meandering, inchoate "manifesto" with a mix of pro- and anti-Trump ravings and negative words for Democrats, based a strange combination of hate for migrant surgers and weird obsessions with automation, was essentially rooted in greenie ideology, as John Lott notes here. Easy enough for leftists to pin on Trump, and most did. As Thomas Lifson noted earlier today, one of the worst of them was here.
But then there are the ones for whom the argument wasn't good enough. Some tried to put their thumbs on the scale to falsely create a narrative that this freak was a conservative addicted to guns and Trump, and they did dishonest things to change "the narrative." Apparently picking and choosing from the madman's ravings wasn't good enough, they needed to alter the facts. (I touched on that matter earlier today here).
There’s virtually no doubt that Kavanaugh is eager to expand the Second Amendment, and little doubt that the Supreme Court is now in much more of a hurry to hear big guns. Many future gunmen may soon enjoy broad rights to purchase the kinds of weapons used to commit mass murder in El Paso and Dayton.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) told Fox News that video games are to blame, following the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton this weekend.
Said McCarthy: “To have a game of shooting individuals and others, I’ve always felt that is a problem for future generations and others.” --------- Democrats Pressure McConnell to Bring Senate Back
“A growing number of Democrats are calling on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to cancel the chamber’s August recess so that they can take up gun control legislation in the wake of two mass shootings this weekend,” NBC News reports.
“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called on the Republican leader to end the chamber’s break to vote on a universal background check bill after the two shootings – one in Dayton, Ohio and another in El Paso, Texas – left at least 29 dead and 53 injured in a matter of just 13 hours. The Senate is currently in recess until September.” __________
Trump Remains Out of Sight
“As the nation reeled from two mass shootings in less than a day, President Trump spent the first hours after the tragedies out of sight at his New Jersey golf course, sending out tweets of support awkwardly mixed in with those promoting a celebrity fight and attacking his political foes,” the AP reports.
“Trump was to return to Washington on Sunday evening, at which point aides said he would likely address reporters, but the nation did not glimpse the president in the immediate aftermath of a shooting in El Paso, Texas, that killed at least 20 people and, hours later, and one in Dayton, Ohio, that claimed at least nine lives. Never seemingly comfortable consoling a nation in grief, Trump will be carefully watched for his response as authorities investigate whether the El Paso shooter left behind an anti-immigration manifesto that echoes the president’s hardline rhetoric about the border, again inviting comparison to his predecessors who have tried to heal the country in moments of national trauma.”
Beto O’Rourke told CNN that President Trump was responsible for shooting incidents yesterday added that he believes Trump is a white nationalist.
Said O’Rourke: “There is an environment of it in the United States. We see it on FOX News, we see it on the Internet. But we also see it from our commander in chief. He is encouraging this. He doesn’t just tolerate it; he encourages it, calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals, warning of an invasion at our border, seeking to ban all people of one religion.”
He added: “Folks are responding to this. It doesn’t just offend us, it encourages the kind of violence that we’re seeing, including in my home town of El Paso yesterday.” ____________

Extra Bonus Quote of the Day
“My question for is… we’re city number 250, how many cities have to go through mass shootings before somebody does something to change the law?” — Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley, quoted by NBC News, on a mass shooting in Dayton last night.
Texas General Land Office Commissioner George P. Bush (R) called on all Americans to stand against “white terrorism” after a gunman who espoused white supremacist views in a manifesto killed at least 18 in El Paso, The Hill reports.
Bush, son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R), said Saturday evening that “white terrorism” was a “real and present threat that we must all denounce and defeat.”
He added: “I believe fighting terrorism remains a national priority. And that should include standing firm against white terrorism.” _________________
Quote of the Day
“America is under attack by lethal, violent, white nationalist terrorism. The President of the United States is condoning white nationalism. White nationalism is one of the evils that is motivating and inspiring at least some to go kill Americans.” — Mayor Pete Buttigieg, quoted by the Daily Beast, in the wake of today’s deadly shooting in El Paso, Texas. ___________
GOP Offers Prayers After Shooting, Democrats Want Action
Washington Post: “Across the country, lawmakers took to cable television and Twitter to react to the mass shooting, with Republicans offering prayers and condemnations of the violence without mentioning guns and Democrats going a step further to decry yet another missed opportunity to address the nation’s gun laws. It was similar to what these lawmakers said less than a week ago, when a 19-year-old opened fire with an assault-style rifle at a food festival in Gilroy, Calif., killing three people and wounding 12 others.” ___________ Pray that God will give us sensible gun restrictions. Trump and the Repugs won't.
Quartz: “North Korea has made headlines of late for launching new missiles, showing off its latest submarines, and publicly executing prisoners. Less noticed, it’s also recently released stamps featuring US president Donald Trump with Kim Jong Un.” ____________ North Korea released stamps featuring US president Donald Trump with Kim Jong Un as thanks to Trump for letting them have missiles and for letting white supremacists have automatic weapons.
I see according to his comment on the other thread this morning that he is sharing an IP address with you. I figure he must have moved from New Mexico to California to help you out and let you stay with him. Nice guy!
Oddly, his second comment was from a different part of the country. Figured he must have been traveling this morning.

"THIS AMERICAN CARNAGE STOPS RIGHT HERE AND STOPS RIGHT NOW" Trump in 2017
said...
So Much for Ending American Carnage
Walter Shapiro: “In his 2017 inaugural address, Donald Trump railed against “crime and gangs and drugs that have stolen too many lives” in the inner cities. Then Trump declared, in words that now echo with bitter irony, ‘This American carnage STOPS RIGHT HERE AND STOPS RIGHT NOW.'”
“There is no way to know with absolute certainty how much of the current wave of ‘American carnage’ is directly due to Trump’s own words and his embrace of white nationalist themes. But even the Trump squad of gleeful apologists at Fox News would find it hard to argue that the president has lived up to his inaugural claim.”
CBS News: 29 people killed in two mass shootings in less than 14 hours.
The Great Unraveling of America
Will Bunch: “When things fall apart, they shatter into a million pieces. I can’t tell you yet exactly how the bloodshed in El Paso is related to a mass murder in Dayton, or to the social dysfunction right here in Philadelphia that caused someone to spray bullets into a crowd of people shooting a hip-hop video, or into a crowded block party in Brooklyn the night before that. I can’t explain why people tweeting about El Paso couldn’t use the hashtag #WalmartShooting because it was already in use for a man who’d just murdered two employees at an outlet in Mississippi.”
“All I know is that it’s all starting to feel like the same event — a Great Unraveling of America. The feeling only grew worse when I read that the authorities in El Paso believe some of the wounded may not go to local hospitals … because they’re so afraid of our immigration cops. It seemed like one more sign that conditions in this country — the violence, the fear, the embrace of racism and xenophobia from the highest levels, and the long slide into neo-fascism — have become intolerable. And yet — with the blood of El Paso and Dayton not yet dry — far too many are still tolerating this.”
Sydney Morning Herald: “In time, we will learn exactly what drove the suspect to carry out today’s mass shooting, but what we know for sure is the United States finds itself in the midst of a domestic white nationalist terrorism crisis.”
AS NATION REELS FROM TWO MASS SHOOTINGS, WHERE IS TRUMP?
BRIDGEWATER, N.J. (AP) As the nation reeled from two mass shootings in less than a day, President Donald Trump spent the first hours after the tragedies out of sight at his New Jersey golf course, sending out tweets of support awkwardly mixed in with those promoting a celebrity fight and attacking his political foes.
Trump was to return to Washington on Sunday evening, at which point aides said he would likely address reporters, but the nation did not glimpse the president in the immediate aftermath of a shooting in El Paso, Texas, that killed at least 20 people and, hours later, one in Dayton, Ohio, that claimed at least nine lives.
Never seemingly comfortable consoling a nation in grief, Trump will be carefully watched for his response to an anti-immigration manifesto that police say the El Paso shooter left behind, again inviting comparison to his predecessors who have tried to heal the country in moments of national trauma.
In recent weeks, the president has issued racist tweets about four women of color who serve in Congress, and in rallies has spoken of an "invasion" at the southern border. His reelection strategy so far has placed racial animus at the forefront in an effort that his aides say is designed to activate his base of conservative voters, an approach not seen by an American president in the modern era.
Trump has also been widely criticized for offering a false equivalency when discussing racial violence, notably when he said there were "good people on both sides" after a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that resulted in the death of an anti-racism demonstrator.
The shootings will likely complicate that strategy, and Democrats who are campaigning to deny Trump a second term were quick to lay blame at the president's feet.
"You reap what you sow, and he is sowing seeds of hate in this country. This harvest of hate violence we're seeing right now lies at his feet," Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey said on NBC's "Meet the Press." ''He is responsible."
Social media photos show that Trump stopped by a wedding at his Bedminster club on Saturday night.
The motive for the Dayton shooting, which happened at a popular nightlife area, was not immediately known. But Democrats pointed to the El Paso attack and blamed Trump for his incendiary rhetoric about immigrants that they say fosters an atmosphere of hate and violence.
The El Paso police chief said Sunday that a racist, anti-immigrant screed posted online shortly before the shooting has been linked to the man arrested in the attack on the border city. The writer expresses concern that an influx of Hispanics into the United States will replace aging white voters, potentially turning Texas blue in upcoming elections and swinging the White House to the Democrats. Federal prosecutors say they're treating the shooting as a domestic terrorism case.
Trump's language about immigrants, and his hardline policies, loomed over the El Paso shooting.
He has described groups of immigrants as "infestations," declared in his campaign kickoff that many of those coming from Mexico were "rapists,"deemed a caravan of Hispanic migrants as invaders and wondered why the United States accepted so many immigrants from "s---hole countries" like Haiti, El Salvador and African nations. Critics also point to his campaign proposal to ban all Muslims from entering the United States, his suggestion that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States and his administration's efforts to curtail asylum and separate immigrant children from their parents at the border.
The president has also repeatedly been denounced for being slow to criticize acts of violence carried out by white nationalists, or deem them acts of domestic terrorism, most notably when he declared there were good people on "both sides" of the 2017 deadly clash in Charlottesville. The number of hate groups has surged to record highs under Trump's presidency, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.
"He is encouraging this. He doesn't just tolerate it; he encourages it. Folks are responding to this. It doesn't just offend us, it encourages the kind of violence that we're seeing, including in my home town of El Paso yesterday," former Rep. Beto O'Rourke, a 2020 Democratic contender, said on CNN's "State of the Union." ''He is an open, avowed racist and is encouraging more racism in this country. And this is incredibly dangerous for the United States of America right now."
Other Democratic candidates also slammed Trump's lack of response.
"We must come together to reject this dangerous and growing culture of bigotry espoused by Trump and his allies," tweeted Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont. "Instead of wasting money putting children in cages, we must seriously address the scourge of violent bigotry and domestic terrorism."
And Pete Buttigieg said Trump is "condoning and encouraging white nationalism." "It is very clear that this kind of hate is being legitimized from on high," Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, said in an interview on CNN.
The top Democrat in the Senate, Chuck Schumer, urged Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to call an emergency session to put a House-passed bill on universal background checks up for debate and a vote "immediately."
White House officials said there were no immediate plans for Trump to address the nation after the shooting. Other presidents have used the aftermath of a national tragedy to reassure citizens, including when George W. Bush visited a mosque less than a week after the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks to stand up for Muslims in the United States and when Obama spoke emotionally after mass shootings in a Sandy Hook school and Charleston church.
Trump has struggled to convey such empathy and support, and drew widespread criticism when he tossed paper towels like basketballs to hurricane victims in Puerto Rico. He has also, at times, seemed to welcome violence toward immigrants. At a May rally in Panama City Beach, Florida, Trump bemoaned legal protections for migrants and asked rhetorically, "How do you stop these people?"
"Shoot them!" cried one audience member.
Trump chuckled and said "Only in the Panhandle you can get away with that statement."
The only leaders in our government screaming hateful rhetoric are all Democrats.
You're all really awful people & enormous liars. ---------------- The racist hoax against @realDonaldTrump is just as big a lie as the Russia hoax was. ---------------- (Maxine Waters)This is the same woman who told her supporters to get into the faces of Trump supporters(At the gas station, at the mall, at restaurants) and she has the nerve to talk about "inciting violence"
In the entire country there aren't more than 10K "white supremacists" and though I realize math isn't this persons friend, for her to say the @GOP is relying on that number as a base, is more than just a lie, it's hate speech, and I'm SICK of the left getting away with this BS.
The LIES from the "pastor" and others is truly disgusting and will be held accountable by a higher power.
They couldn't take down President Trump so now they're trying to taking us down - by ridiculously labeling all us Trump supporters - white supremacists.
As “#WhiteSupremacistTerrorism” is trending now in the aftermath of a shooting, remember the KKK in the 1920s was nearly 4% of the population of . Today, the KKK is .0018%- ALL of whom are disavowed by the vast majority of Trump supporters. Don’t fall for this progressive trap.
Leftist lies are stoking this, will be hell to pay

Too bad he didn't fall on his fat face......asshole...
Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell tripped and fell Sunday at his Kentucky home and broke his shoulder, issuing a statement announcing he’d be working from home. “This morning, Leader McConnell tripped at home on his outside patio and suffered a fractured shoulder," said spokesman David Popp in a statement to NBC News. “He has been treated, released, and is working from home in Louisville.” The announcement came as calls rose for Congress to cut short its recess and vote on a bill requiring background checks for firearms purchases.
Connor Betts: Twitter Posts on Being a Leftist, Guns
Connor Betts, the Dayton, Ohio mass shooter, was a self-described “leftist,” who wrote that he would happily vote for Democrat Elizabeth Warren, praised Satan, was upset about the 2016 presidential election results, and added, “I want socialism, and I'll not wait for the idiots to finally come round to understanding.”
Gee, the lo iq lefties here were calling him a white supremist. Guess we'll hear crickets about him now. The antifa flags will be at half mast again too.
Trump Mulled Declaring State of Emergency In Baltimore
Jonathan Swan: “Nobody knew it was coming, nobody knew how to handle it, and a week later, senior White House officials have their fingers crossed that the president won’t turn their week upside-down once again with another tweet about a Fox and Friends segment. As the week has unfurled, people inside and outside the White House described to me how a few pokes of a keyboard by the leader of the free world sent some of Washington’s most powerful political players scrambling for cover.”
“In at least one conversation with senior aides and another discussion with an outside ally, Trump entertained the idea of declaring a state of emergency in Baltimore — an extraordinary action that would potentially open up new federal powers and funding… The idea would be to say that the living conditions in Baltimore were unacceptable and that people were suffering because their Democratic representatives let them down. So Trump would take action to fix things.”
“Trump also discussed declaring a state of emergency in other cities controlled by Democrats, including San Francisco and Detroit.”
Jennifer Rubin: “In sum, we are awash in hate crimes and white nationalist-inspired mass murders. We have a president whose words inspire and bolster perpetrators of these heinous acts. That makes Trump not only a moral abomination, which no policy outcome can offset, but a threat to national security. Those encouraged by his words in recent years kill more Americans than Islamist terrorists.”
“If that is not justification for bipartisan repudiation of this president and removal from office at the earliest possible moment I don’t know what is. Those who countenance and support this president for his white-grievance mongering are not merely ‘deplorable’ but dangerous.”
Trump Deletes Tweets Referring to Migrant ‘Invasion’
Samuel Robinson reports that tweets from President Trump that contain forms of the word “invasion” when referring to migrants at the Southern border are being deleted.
“Mexico on Sunday threatened to take legal action against the United States for failing to protect its citizens after this weekend’s mass shooting in the border city of El Paso,” NBC News reports.
“Of the 20 people gunned down at a Walmart at the Cielo Vista Mall, at least three were Mexican citizens, and Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard promised Mexico City will act.”

Okay media you’ve got yourselves an important test: you need to report the below about the Dayton terrorist as prominently as the El Paso terrorist. If you don’t, it just proves you’re full of it & playing politics with tragedies
Ryan Saavedra @RealSaavedra
Heavy(.)com found the Twitter account of the alleged Dayton attacker
His account promoted:
-Bernie Sanders -Elizabeth Warren -Antifa -leftism -socialism -Satan -Strong anti-ICE rhetoric -He called the terrorist who attacked the ICE facility in Tacoma a "martyr"
Local news report: Dayton killer “was expelled from school after officials found a notebook where he reportedly wrote a list of people who he wanted to rape, kill and skin their bodies.”
Replying to @DavidAFrench “Hi, I’m going to exploit a heinous crime by a mentally ill moron for political gain. So let’s go ahead and lump this insane killer in with everyone who leans right, because that will help the candidates I like in the next election. I’m David French, and I politicize tragedy.”
remind me of the POS "pastor". as CHT says:
Yes, mass shootings are a tragedy. No, it's not Trump's fault.
If your take on this is to blame the President, then go fuck yourself. Really, literally go fuck yourself. Take something long and cylinder and shove it up your ass!

EL PASO, Texas (AP) — The shooting that killed 20 people at a crowded El Paso shopping area will be handled as a domestic terrorism case, federal authorities said Sunday as they weighed hate-crime charges against the gunman that could carry the death penalty.
A local prosecutor announced that he would bring capital murder charges against the suspect, saying the assailant "lost the right to be among us."
The attack on Saturday morning was followed less than a day later by another shooting that claimed nine lives in a nightlife district of Dayton, Ohio. That shooter was killed by police.
Investigators were focusing on whether the El Paso attack was a hate crime after the emergence of a racist, anti-immigrant screed that was posted online shortly beforehand. Detectives sought to determine if it was written by the man who was arrested. The border city has figured prominently in the immigration debate and is home to 680,000 people, most of them Latino.
Using a rifle, the El Paso gunman opened fire in an area packed with as many as 3,000 people during the busy back-to-school shopping season. More than two dozen people were wounded, some with life-threatening injuries, police said.
Federal officials were treating the attack as a domestic terrorism case, according to the U.S. attorney.
The Justice Department was weighing federal hate-crime charges that would carry the death penalty, according to a person familiar with the department's decision-making process. The person was not authorized to speak on the record and spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press.
Despite initial reports of possible multiple gunmen, the man in custody was believed to be the only shooter, police said.
Two law enforcement officials who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity identified him as 21-year-old Patrick Crusius. Authorities did not release his name at a news conference but said he was arrested without police firing any shots. He is from Allen, which is a nearly 10-hour drive from El Paso.
There was no immediate indication that he had an attorney.
Police say more than two dozen people were wounded in the attack at a shopping area about 5 miles (8 kilometers) from the main border checkpoint with Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. Many of the victims were shot at a Walmart.
"The scene was a horrific one," El Paso Police Chief Greg Allen said, adding that many of the 26 people who were hurt had life-threatening injuries.
The shooting came less than a week after a 19-year-old gunman killed three people and injured 13 others at the popular Gilroy Garlic Festival in California before dying of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Adriana Quezada said she was in the women's clothing section of the Walmart with her two children when she heard gunfire.
"But I thought they were hits, like roof construction," Quezada, 39, said of the shots.
Her 19-year-old daughter and 16-year-old son threw themselves to the ground, then ran out of the store through an emergency exit. They were not hurt, Quezada said.
Relatives said a 25-year-old woman who was shot while apparently trying to shield her 2-month-old son was among those killed, while Mexican officials said three Mexican nationals were among the dead and six more were wounded.
Residents quickly volunteered to give blood to the wounded. President Donald Trump tweeted: "God be with you all!"
Democratic presidential candidate and former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke, who is from El Paso and was at a candidate forum Saturday in Las Vegas, appeared shaken after receiving news of the shooting in his hometown.
He said he heard early reports that the shooter might have had a military-style weapon, saying we need to "keep that (expletive) on the battlefield. Do not bring it into our communities."
In the document that was posted online shortly before the shooting, the writer expressed concern that an influx of Hispanics into the United States will replace aging white voters, potentially turning Texas blue in elections and swinging the White House to the Democrats.
The writer was also critical of Republicans for what he described as close ties to corporations and degradation of the environment. Though a Twitter account that appears to belong to Crusius included pro-Trump posts praising the plan to build more border wall, the writer of the online document says his views on race predated Trump's campaign and that any attempt to blame the president for his actions was "fake news."
Though the writer denied he was a white supremacist, the document says "race mixing" is destroying the nation and recommends dividing the United States into territorial enclaves determined by race. The first sentence of the four-page document expresses support for the man accused of killing 51 people at two New Zealand mosques in March after posting his own screed with a conspiracy theory about nonwhite migrants replacing whites.
El Paso Mayor Dee Margo said he knew the shooter was not from the city.
"It's not what we're about," the mayor said at the news conference with Gov. Greg Abbott and the police chief.
In the hours after the shooting, authorities blocked streets near a home in Allen associated with the suspect. Officers appeared to speak briefly with a woman who answered the door of the gray stone house and later entered the residence.
El Paso County is more than 80% Latino, according to the latest census data. Tens of thousands of Mexicans legally cross the border each day to work and shop in the city.
Trump visited in February to argue that walling off the southern border would make the U.S. safer, while city residents and O'Rourke led thousands on a protest march past the barrier of barbed wire-topped fencing and towering metal slats.
O'Rourke stressed that border walls have not made his hometown safer. The city's murder rate was less than half the national average in 2005, the year before the start of its border fence. Before the wall project started, El Paso had been rated one of the three safest major U.S. cities going back to 1997.

Leftists Change Shooter Patrick Crusius’s MyLife Page after Saturday Shooting from Democrat to Republican
@CarmineSabia
The #DaytonShooter murdered his sister and her boyfriend. He murdered white and black people. Men and women. Not likely that he had a political motive. Stop ascribing things where they are not warranted or known.
Left tries dishonesty in bid to turn El Paso shooter into a Republican
We already know that the left is trying to pin the El Paso and Dayton mass shootings, done by madmen, to something President Trump instigated. The El Paso killer, in a meandering, inchoate "manifesto" with a mix of pro- and anti-Trump ravings and negative words for Democrats, based a strange combination of hate for migrant surgers and weird obsessions with automation, was essentially rooted in greenie ideology, as John Lott notes here. Easy enough for leftists to pin on Trump, and most did. As Thomas Lifson noted earlier today, one of the worst of them was here.
But then there are the ones for whom the argument wasn't good enough. Some tried to put their thumbs on the scale to falsely create a narrative that this freak was a conservative addicted to guns and Trump, and they did dishonest things to change "the narrative." Apparently picking and choosing from the madman's ravings wasn't good enough, they needed to alter the facts. (I touched on that matter earlier today here).

There’s virtually no doubt that Kavanaugh is eager to expand the Second Amendment, and little doubt that the Supreme Court is now in much more of a hurry to hear big guns. Many future gunmen may soon enjoy broad rights to purchase the kinds of weapons used to commit mass murder in El Paso and Dayton.
Speculation of the insane.

Top Republican Blames Video Games for Shootings
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) told Fox News that video games are to blame, following the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton this weekend.
Said McCarthy: “To have a game of shooting individuals and others, I’ve always felt that is a problem for future generations and others.”

Democrats Pressure McConnell to Bring Senate Back
“A growing number of Democrats are calling on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to cancel the chamber’s August recess so that they can take up gun control legislation in the wake of two mass shootings this weekend,” NBC News reports.
“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called on the Republican leader to end the chamber’s break to vote on a universal background check bill after the two shootings – one in Dayton, Ohio and another in El Paso, Texas – left at least 29 dead and 53 injured in a matter of just 13 hours. The Senate is currently in recess until September.”

Trump Remains Out of Sight
“As the nation reeled from two mass shootings in less than a day, President Trump spent the first hours after the tragedies out of sight at his New Jersey golf course, sending out tweets of support awkwardly mixed in with those promoting a celebrity fight and attacking his political foes,” the AP reports.
“Trump was to return to Washington on Sunday evening, at which point aides said he would likely address reporters, but the nation did not glimpse the president in the immediate aftermath of a shooting in El Paso, Texas, that killed at least 20 people and, hours later, and one in Dayton, Ohio, that claimed at least nine lives. Never seemingly comfortable consoling a nation in grief, Trump will be carefully watched for his response as authorities investigate whether the El Paso shooter left behind an anti-immigration manifesto that echoes the president’s hardline rhetoric about the border, again inviting comparison to his predecessors who have tried to heal the country in moments of national trauma.”
O’Rourke Says Trump Is a White Nationalist
Beto O’Rourke told CNN that President Trump was responsible for shooting incidents yesterday added that he believes Trump is a white nationalist.
Said O’Rourke: “There is an environment of it in the United States. We see it on FOX News, we see it on the Internet. But we also see it from our commander in chief. He is encouraging this. He doesn’t just tolerate it; he encourages it, calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals, warning of an invasion at our border, seeking to ban all people of one religion.”
He added: “Folks are responding to this. It doesn’t just offend us, it encourages the kind of violence that we’re seeing, including in my home town of El Paso yesterday.”

He added: “I believe fighting terrorism remains a national priority. And that should include standing firm against white terrorism.”

Washington Post: “Across the country, lawmakers took to cable television and Twitter to react to the mass shooting, with Republicans offering prayers and condemnations of the violence without mentioning guns and Democrats going a step further to decry yet another missed opportunity to address the nation’s gun laws. It was similar to what these lawmakers said less than a week ago, when a 19-year-old opened fire with an assault-style rifle at a food festival in Gilroy, Calif., killing three people and wounding 12 others.”

So Much for Ending American Carnage
Walter Shapiro: “In his 2017 inaugural address, Donald Trump railed against “crime and gangs and drugs that have stolen too many lives” in the inner cities. Then Trump declared, in words that now echo with bitter irony, ‘This American carnage STOPS RIGHT HERE AND STOPS RIGHT NOW.'”
“There is no way to know with absolute certainty how much of the current wave of ‘American carnage’ is directly due to Trump’s own words and his embrace of white nationalist themes. But even the Trump squad of gleeful apologists at Fox News would find it hard to argue that the president has lived up to his inaugural claim.”
CBS News: 29 people killed in two mass shootings in less than 14 hours.
The Great Unraveling of America
Will Bunch: “When things fall apart, they shatter into a million pieces. I can’t tell you yet exactly how the bloodshed in El Paso is related to a mass murder in Dayton, or to the social dysfunction right here in Philadelphia that caused someone to spray bullets into a crowd of people shooting a hip-hop video, or into a crowded block party in Brooklyn the night before that. I can’t explain why people tweeting about El Paso couldn’t use the hashtag #WalmartShooting because it was already in use for a man who’d just murdered two employees at an outlet in Mississippi.”
“All I know is that it’s all starting to feel like the same event — a Great Unraveling of America. The feeling only grew worse when I read that the authorities in El Paso believe some of the wounded may not go to local hospitals … because they’re so afraid of our immigration cops. It seemed like one more sign that conditions in this country — the violence, the fear, the embrace of racism and xenophobia from the highest levels, and the long slide into neo-fascism — have become intolerable. And yet — with the blood of El Paso and Dayton not yet dry — far too many are still tolerating this.”
The View from Australia
Sydney Morning Herald: “In time, we will learn exactly what drove the suspect to carry out today’s mass shooting, but what we know for sure is the United States finds itself in the midst of a domestic white nationalist terrorism crisis.”

AS NATION REELS FROM TWO MASS SHOOTINGS, WHERE IS TRUMP?
BRIDGEWATER, N.J. (AP) As the nation reeled from two mass shootings in less than a day, President Donald Trump spent the first hours after the tragedies out of sight at his New Jersey golf course, sending out tweets of support awkwardly mixed in with those promoting a celebrity fight and attacking his political foes.
Trump was to return to Washington on Sunday evening, at which point aides said he would likely address reporters, but the nation did not glimpse the president in the immediate aftermath of a shooting in El Paso, Texas, that killed at least 20 people and, hours later, one in Dayton, Ohio, that claimed at least nine lives.
Never seemingly comfortable consoling a nation in grief, Trump will be carefully watched for his response to an anti-immigration manifesto that police say the El Paso shooter left behind, again inviting comparison to his predecessors who have tried to heal the country in moments of national trauma.
In recent weeks, the president has issued racist tweets about four women of color who serve in Congress, and in rallies has spoken of an "invasion" at the southern border. His reelection strategy so far has placed racial animus at the forefront in an effort that his aides say is designed to activate his base of conservative voters, an approach not seen by an American president in the modern era.
Trump has also been widely criticized for offering a false equivalency when discussing racial violence, notably when he said there were "good people on both sides" after a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that resulted in the death of an anti-racism demonstrator.
The shootings will likely complicate that strategy, and Democrats who are campaigning to deny Trump a second term were quick to lay blame at the president's feet.
"You reap what you sow, and he is sowing seeds of hate in this country. This harvest of hate violence we're seeing right now lies at his feet," Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey said on NBC's "Meet the Press." ''He is responsible."
Social media photos show that Trump stopped by a wedding at his Bedminster club on Saturday night.
The motive for the Dayton shooting, which happened at a popular nightlife area, was not immediately known. But Democrats pointed to the El Paso attack and blamed Trump for his incendiary rhetoric about immigrants that they say fosters an atmosphere of hate and violence.
The El Paso police chief said Sunday that a racist, anti-immigrant screed posted online shortly before the shooting has been linked to the man arrested in the attack on the border city. The writer expresses concern that an influx of Hispanics into the United States will replace aging white voters, potentially turning Texas blue in upcoming elections and swinging the White House to the Democrats. Federal prosecutors say they're treating the shooting as a domestic terrorism case.
Trump's language about immigrants, and his hardline policies, loomed over the El Paso shooting.
He has described groups of immigrants as "infestations," declared in his campaign kickoff that many of those coming from Mexico were "rapists,"deemed a caravan of Hispanic migrants as invaders and wondered why the United States accepted so many immigrants from "s---hole countries" like Haiti, El Salvador and African nations. Critics also point to his campaign proposal to ban all Muslims from entering the United States, his suggestion that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States and his administration's efforts to curtail asylum and separate immigrant children from their parents at the border.
The president has also repeatedly been denounced for being slow to criticize acts of violence carried out by white nationalists, or deem them acts of domestic terrorism, most notably when he declared there were good people on "both sides" of the 2017 deadly clash in Charlottesville. The number of hate groups has surged to record highs under Trump's presidency, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.
"He is encouraging this. He doesn't just tolerate it; he encourages it. Folks are responding to this. It doesn't just offend us, it encourages the kind of violence that we're seeing, including in my home town of El Paso yesterday," former Rep. Beto O'Rourke, a 2020 Democratic contender, said on CNN's "State of the Union." ''He is an open, avowed racist and is encouraging more racism in this country. And this is incredibly dangerous for the United States of America right now."
Other Democratic candidates also slammed Trump's lack of response.
"We must come together to reject this dangerous and growing culture of bigotry espoused by Trump and his allies," tweeted Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont. "Instead of wasting money putting children in cages, we must seriously address the scourge of violent bigotry and domestic terrorism."
And Pete Buttigieg said Trump is "condoning and encouraging white nationalism."
"It is very clear that this kind of hate is being legitimized from on high," Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, said in an interview on CNN.
The top Democrat in the Senate, Chuck Schumer, urged Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to call an emergency session to put a House-passed bill on universal background checks up for debate and a vote "immediately."
White House officials said there were no immediate plans for Trump to address the nation after the shooting. Other presidents have used the aftermath of a national tragedy to reassure citizens, including when George W. Bush visited a mosque less than a week after the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks to stand up for Muslims in the United States and when Obama spoke emotionally after mass shootings in a Sandy Hook school and Charleston church.
Trump has struggled to convey such empathy and support, and drew widespread criticism when he tossed paper towels like basketballs to hurricane victims in Puerto Rico. He has also, at times, seemed to welcome violence toward immigrants. At a May rally in Panama City Beach, Florida, Trump bemoaned legal protections for migrants and asked rhetorically, "How do you stop these people?"
"Shoot them!" cried one audience member.
Trump chuckled and said "Only in the Panhandle you can get away with that statement."

The announcement came as calls rose for Congress to cut short its recess and vote on a bill requiring background checks for firearms purchases.

Trump Mulled Declaring State of Emergency In Baltimore
Jonathan Swan: “Nobody knew it was coming, nobody knew how to handle it, and a week later, senior White House officials have their fingers crossed that the president won’t turn their week upside-down once again with another tweet about a Fox and Friends segment. As the week has unfurled, people inside and outside the White House described to me how a few pokes of a keyboard by the leader of the free world sent some of Washington’s most powerful political players scrambling for cover.”
“In at least one conversation with senior aides and another discussion with an outside ally, Trump entertained the idea of declaring a state of emergency in Baltimore — an extraordinary action that would potentially open up new federal powers and funding… The idea would be to say that the living conditions in Baltimore were unacceptable and that people were suffering because their Democratic representatives let them down. So Trump would take action to fix things.”
“Trump also discussed declaring a state of emergency in other cities controlled by Democrats, including San Francisco and Detroit.”
‘There’s No Excuse for Supporting This President’
Jennifer Rubin: “In sum, we are awash in hate crimes and white nationalist-inspired mass murders. We have a president whose words inspire and bolster perpetrators of these heinous acts. That makes Trump not only a moral abomination, which no policy outcome can offset, but a threat to national security. Those encouraged by his words in recent years kill more Americans than Islamist terrorists.”
“If that is not justification for bipartisan repudiation of this president and removal from office at the earliest possible moment I don’t know what is. Those who countenance and support this president for his white-grievance mongering are not merely ‘deplorable’ but dangerous.”
Flashback Exchange of the Day

The audience of thousands cheered and Trump smiled.
