There are two stories here. Once is the ongoing wave of vandalism and domestic terrorism by left-wing nutjobs and the other is the silence of Democrats. Neither of these stories is really breaking news at this point, but I haven't stopped caring and I don't think our readers have either.
So on that note, let's just go over a few acts of vandalism and the people who've been either identified as suspects or already arrested. Apparently these people don't understand that Tesla's have lots of cameras.
In Boston, a woman was captured on video throwing a brick through the window of a Tesla.

This happened on Sunday. Boston PD is now looking for the suspect. Something tells me she won't be too hard to identify.

He apparently confessed when questioned by police. Not much doubt about the politics that motivated him.

Here's one from Columbus, Ohio. Don't know if this person has been caught yet.

Unfortunately, I could go on. There are many more examples of people who haven't been arrested yet but who probably will be soon. You can see a bunch of them on this X account.
Meanwhile, the Democrats who have inspired all of this have said almost nothing about it. AOC has been asked about it twice and has replied that Republicans say all sorts of things about her. But of course she has called out others for "stochastic terrorism" in the past.
Questioned by Fox News Digital, "Squad" member and leading Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York refused to answer whether she believes Democrats’ inflammatory rhetoric against Elon Musk has any connection to the violent attacks and vandalism against Tesla owners and dealers across the country...
Though she would not comment on the acts of terror against Tesla owners and workers, Ocasio-Cortez, considered one of the country’s leading Democratic voices, has previously accused her Republican opponents of engaging in "stochastic terrorism," using inflammatory language to incite violent action, by criticizing her, which she said prompted her to hire security.
Speaking on CNN in 2023, she said, "It’s uncomfortable serving with people who engage in what many experts deem stochastic terrorism, which is the incitement of violence using digital means and large platforms so that individuals themselves may not be the one that’s wielding a weapon.
Few national Democrats have criticized the wave of arson and vandalism. It's almost as if they know the vandals are on their side.
