Senator Kevin Cramer of North Dakota called 14-year Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt a “criminal” and said he’s “grateful” for the Capitol Police Officer who killed the unarmed protestor on January 6th for “not complying” with his orders from the other side of a barricaded door while fielding questions on a radio show.
Senator Kevin Cramer’s remarks came after North Dakota residents phoned into “The Jay Thomas Show” to talk with their elected official. One caller urged Cramer to divulge the identify of the Capitol Police Officer who shot and killed an unarmed election integrity protestor, Ashli Babbitt, on January 6th from the opposite side of a barricaded door within the United States Capitol building.
“I’m quite sure – this is my gut feeling – that everybody knows the name of the guy that shot her,” the caller said, before asking Cramer to “be the one to leak his name.” Cramer asked the caller, “Why would I do that?” The caller replied that the American people “have a right to know.”
Cramer continued to refuse to name the officer who shot and killed Babbitt, telling the caller that Babbitt was a “criminal” who was shot for “not complying with officers,” before questioning why the American people would need to know the name of the “innocent” officer and eventually claiming that even he, as a United States Senator, has no idea who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt.

North Dakota can do better than that. I expect that kind of talk from a New Jersey or Massachusetts Republican.
I was on a media site debating what happened to her - the Left is THRILLED she was killed...it was right out of books that I read on Stalin - she deserved to die because she misbehaved (per the Left).
I really thought our side wasn’t quite as bloodthirsty.
Also, it would be interesting to find out how the phone calls are running in his office...
North Dakota has TWO Assistant Democrat Senators.
Hoeven voted for amnesty in 2013.
He’s up in 2022 and needs to be replaced.
Cramer and all the other Bush League Republicans are NOT on our side.
Assassinated at point blank range for the 'crime' of 'not following orders'...
I wonder how that would fly if the victim had been black - or a white antifa? I suspect Sen. Cramer would be 'cancelled'. But an unarmed white woman - a vet? Yeah shoot her in the face so even her mother can't see her to say goodby...
The bastard is unfit to walk in the Capitol.
Even if I agreed with him I wouldn’t say something like that as it’s completely tasteless.
Vichy RINO Party member.
There, fixed it.
The Cowardly Senator would have said anything if the person was not white- He would have secretly applauded the killer because he obviously lusts after forcing the country to being under Stasi rule— but kept his mouth shut because the only people he truly loathes, and whom he apparently thinks deserve to be murdered even if they are unarmed, are white republicans that ‘get uppity’-
If only she had been burning down a business they’d have loved her.
At the very least, he should be censured by the Senate.
You should be so proud.
Not one red cent to the RNC until this kind of back stabbing is dealt with. Starve them out.
Want to know why the Democrats always come out on top?
Well just imagine a DEM Senator, saying…….”the Capitol City protest on January 6th was simply, a mostly peaceful event, with Republicans doing their civic duty to support their outgoing President”. The murder of this woman needs to be fully investigated and the shooter prosecuted.
IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN, EVER.
Cramer and all the other Bush League Republicans are NOT on our side.
..........
Yes, and every presidential candidate in 16 was one who had fooled the voters for years, except Trump.
I Know there’s no recall mechanism for federal reps. Wonder if there’s one at the state level in North Dakota.
It would be nice to see the people and state legislature ask this scumbag to resign. If they don’t and there’s a mechanism recall every member of the state legislature until they’re all on board.
What a POS?
I see your true colors shining through...
RINOs like this is why it is so hard for Republicans to win elections anymore.
