So we have a Muslim ban to keep out jihadists and want to build a wall to keep out criminals from Latin America, what are we we doing to prevent right wing terrorists?

Every terrorist murder in the US last year was linked to right-wing extremism, according to a new report.

At least 50 people were killed by an attacker connected to right-wing extremism in 2018, an increase of 35 per cent from the previous year, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) found.

The rise means nearly three-quarters of extremist murders in America in the past decade can be linked to right-wing domestic terrorism, more than three times as many as those committed by Islamists.

The figures should “serve as a wake-up call to everyone about the deadly consequences of hateful rhetoric,” said the ADL, a New York-based organisation with monitors antisemitism and other hate crime.
