Three weeks ago we wrote about the FBI classing the shooting at the House Republicans baseball team practice which wounded several and resulted in the death of the shooter as “suicide by cop.” Today the Washington Examiner reports the FBI have reclassified it as “domestic terrorism” done by “a domestic violent extremist.” However:
