Republican Representative Steve Scalise, the House Majority Whip, and two Capitol Police were shot during baseball practice on Wednesday morning.

Scalise was shot in the hip and tried to drag himself off the field after he was shot.

The shooter, James T. Hodgkinson was a Bernie supporter who was obsessed with Trump-Russia conspiracy theories. He is now dead.

Jake Borsch tells TGP that Hodgkinson was a very unstable man who had the police called on him numerous times for ‘rapid gunfire’.

Police showed up to Hodgkinson’s home after he allegedly shot at his daughter’s boyfriend’s feet and threatened him.

TGP: “Did Hodgkinson ever threaten his neighbors?”

Borsch: ‘We had our tires slashed on two of our cars in the fall right before the Presidential election.’

Borsch went on to explain that his tires and his dad’s tires were slashed while parked in his driveway. He often had pro-Republican signs on his lawn, such as a Republican Mayoral candidate.

Borsch: ‘The police were called many times to his home, but they had no urgency, they didn’t take his threats or gunfire seriously. He didn’t lose his firearms license even after he shot at his daughter’s boyfriends feet.’

TGP: “Was he married? Did he live alone?”

Borsch: ‘He was married, but left his wife a couple months ago.’

Divorce papers have not been filed, however; Hodgkinson relocated to Alexandria, VA a few months ago reportedly living in a car with one gym bag full of his belongings.
