Brad Paquette, a Michigan state legislator, posted several comments on his X (formerly Twitter) account on September 14 and 15, 2025. His posts addressed topics ranging from education to media coverage and recent political violence.
On September 14, Paquette shared an endorsement of another post, writing “This is well said.” On the same day, he made a statement regarding the current social climate in schools and broader society: “We saw it coming even before the attempts on Trump’s life. Children in schools have been taught the language of warfare… that ‘allies’ affirm the delusions about sex. Only hate filled enemies will oppose it… even though love speaks the truth. Trans rage is real.”
On September 15, Paquette commented on local media coverage by posting “Bold headline from MLive.”
Paquette’s remarks come at a time when debates over gender identity education and political violence are prominent in national discourse. As a Republican representative for Michigan’s 78th district, he has previously taken public stances on educational policy and cultural issues.
MLive is a major digital news outlet serving Michigan communities with statewide news coverage (https://www.mlive.com/about-us/). The reference to “attempts on Trump’s life” alludes to recent incidents involving threats or attacks against former President Donald Trump.
