This is Ken Martin, Chair of the Democratic National Committee.
Watch my full statement on last night’s special election to fill the seat left vacant after the murder of my friend, Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman, my thoughts on the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and why this moment demands unity, courage, and leadership.
As I previously said, “We need to come together to denounce the violence happening in our country and make clear what this moment calls for: courage and respect.”
Thank you.
Ken




There’s no “coming together” with fascists, Ken.
Most tragically of all, we have a president who subscribes to none of your noble sentiments, but rather the opposite, a man who is cruel and corrupt, who promotes chaos and condones violence against his enemies. God help us all, and save us from Donald Trump.
