Jonathan Turley Rips Democrats For ‘Endorsing Most Extreme Possible Actions’
Story by Mariane Angela • 21h

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley criticized the Democratic Party on Fox News Friday for what he said is a dangerous turn towards extremism.

Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley initiated an investigation into a California-based Democratic Party organization, alleging potential financial support for violent protests during the recent Los Angeles riots. During an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle,” Turley said that the party’s actions are driven by unchecked rage, which he said fuels extreme decisions and actions.
 

“It’s as if they’ve become a party of Jacobins, that they are endorsing the most extreme possible actions. I just wrote a book on the age of rage, and this is what rage does,” Turley told host Laura Ingraham. “It gives you a license to do things and say things you would not ordinarily do or say.”

Turley also pointed out the addictive nature of rage.

“And what these people won’t admit, what they won’t admit tomorrow, is that they like it and that they need it and that it’s contagious and it’s addictive. That’s what rage is,” Turley added.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
