Racist, Transphobic nutcase Paul Gosar spreads lies about the TX shooter.

Extremist Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Arizona) deleted a disturbing and offensive tweet Tuesday that falsely claimed the gunman who killed more than 20 people at a Texas school was a “transsexual leftist illegal alien.”

Gosar, an anti-immigration hardliner who routinely cozies up to white nationalists, was apparently promoting a false claim circulating on right-wing networks. Users shared images of a trans person unrelated to the attack claiming they were the shooter.

This is your typical Fascist nutcase. They’re obsessed with creating a boogeyman, and, anything bad that happens is because of them. It doesn’t matter if the tweet was deleted - it served its purpose in terrorizing two communities that are already consistently terrorized by the GQP.
