"The Democratic strategist from New Jersey who came under fire for tweeting the hashtag "#HuntRepublicans" shortly after last week's congressional shooting sparred on air with a Fox News host over the matter Tuesday night. James Devine, a longtime Democratic operative from Union County who once ran for mayor of Rahway, appeared on Tucker Carlson's show to speak about the comments he published on Twitter last Wednesday after a shooter opened fire on Republican members of Congress who were practicing in Virginia for an upcoming congressional baseball game.
