Wisconsin Politicians Respond to Charlie Kirk Assassination

Frederica Freyberg:
Reaction in Wisconsin to the assassination of Charlie Kirk in Utah this week was swift and unified. Democratic Governor Tony Evers saying, “Violence against anyone because of their political beliefs is wrong. Violence against others is wrong. Violence is never the answer for resolving our differences or disagreements.” Wisconsin Republican Party Chairman Brian Schimming said, “The political violence that we have seen in recent years must come to an end. As Americans, we need to stand against these violent attacks.”

Charlie Kirk:
Donald Trump is on a rescue mission to revive your birthright.

Frederica Freyberg:
An ardent Donald Trump supporter, Kirk was a prominent figure in Wisconsin battleground campaigns, delivering remarks at last summer’s Republican National Convention and at GOP rallies across the state. Lawmakers at the state Capitol late this week discussed increased security following the assassinations of Kirk and of a Minnesota state legislator and her husband in June.
