MedStar Washington Hospital Center says the Louisiana congressman is back in intensive care because of new concerns for infection. Scalise was in serious condition Wednesday night.
Scalise and four other people were injured last month when a gunman opened fire on a Republican baseball practice in nearby Alexandria, Virginia. U.S. Capitol Police and other officers returned fire and killed the gunman.
The congressman was struck in the hip and the bullet tore into blood vessels, bones and internal organs. He has undergone several surgeries and had been upgraded to fair condition.
Washington Medical Center has a good reputation I hope he recovers.
A causality of the violent leftists. So sad
If this had been reversed, and it had been a Democrat that was targeted and shot, the left would not stop roaring about it day after day, the media would not stop reporting on it, and blaming Republicans and their supporters, and the newspaper headlines would be nonstop. But because it’s a Republican, and Democrats are to blame, everyone is silent. What disgusting hypocrisy.
