Clyburn Blames ‘Rightward Drift’ for Murders

Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) blames the “rightward drift” in the United States for the atrocity at a Charleston church, where a young white man shot and killed nine African American members of a Bible study group, CNS News reports.

Said Clyburn: “I’ve been saying for some time now, my friends in the Congressional Black Caucus will tell you, I’ve been saying to them that there’s this rightward drift in the country that I think is going too far. And people get emboldened by all of this.”
