Sources confirm that revolutionaries murdered many officials, governors and police in 1905-1906, but the specific tallies are not supported. Source [5] reports 20 governors killed in 1905 plus three more in 1906, which exceeds the claimed 15 governors and mayors, while the 267 security-official figure is not matched by any source and no source mentions 12 bishops.
What was said
… What these Jewish leftist and Jewish nationalist groups wanted to do was exactly what the Soviets did a few years later. You can tell they wanted to do that because between 1905 and 1906, they were murdering governors and mayors. I think you wrote 15 governors and mayors, 267 security officials, which would have been some form of police, and 12 bishops. Okay, so, I mean, this is echo. I look at this and I immediately start thinking of the Spanish Civil War, because that was just multiplied by hundreds, by thousands, basically. …

Contradicts. A journal article reports that 20 governors were killed in 1905 alone and three more in 1906, plus the St. Petersburg mayor and the Warsaw Governor-General, which exceeds the claimed count of 15 governors and mayors.[2]
Contradicts. Other sources give different tallies for officials killed, such as 790 military, gendarme and police killed and 864 wounded, and 2,640 officials killed from 1906 to 1909, none of which match the claimed 267 security officials for 1905-1906.[3][4]
Supports. Multiple sources describe a wave of revolutionary assassinations of officials, police and governors in 1905-1906, supporting the general premise of the claim.[1][3][4][5]
Context. No source addresses the killing of 12 bishops by revolutionaries in 1905-1906, so that element is unverified.
