Senator Kevin Cramer

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.

What orders? The internet videos I saw of Ashli being shot did not contain audio of any orders. They showed a hand holding a pistol to Ashli's left as she climbed through the window, then there was the sound of a shot, then Ashli fell back into the room.
Has anyone here heard audio of the cop warning Ashli before he shot her? If so, please provide a link, because I do not believe that it happened.
North Dakotans ... please, remove this person from office.
WTF would say something like that? Imagine the outrage if his daughter was talked about like this? The POS who pulled the trigger is a coward who murdered a woman in a Trump cape. I can easily see how a government can murder millions and feel threatened by anyone who challenges a regime. A Iranian woman was murdered the same way hit in the neck bleeding out quickly during the Green Revolution years ago.
“Republican Senator Says He Is “Grateful” That Ashli Babbitt Was Killed By Capitol Police”
This fits well with the NY Times op-ed a few days ago which referred to the protestors as “enemies of the state”.
The bad news is that it’s true.
He’s demonstrating an inability to just be seen & not heard !
Another example of a politician who likely was talked into saying something (Then too weak for the job!) or felt he had to say something (Too stupid for the job !) when the smartest thing would have been to say nothing !
Agreed. 🙂
These treasonous RINOs are nothing but cancers on the body politic that need to be cut out and removed.
For six years under the purple lipped knuckle dragger, these turds made promise after promise of what they’d do if we just gave them a republican president. We did, and they promptly stabbed him and us in the back. It’s turds like this waste of skin that will ensure the democraps keep control of Congress forever.
