Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders hosted an event at the governor’s mansion this week, which featured Erika Kirk, the widow of the late Charlie Kirk. As attendees left the event, they were harassed by a group of protesters, and the situation quickly devolved into chaos.
These protesters are an example of what the left is doing all the time now. They show up at events to cause trouble and instigate violence. What were they even protesting? Erika Kirk’s mere presence at the event?
