Brad Paquette, a Michigan state representative, posted a series of tweets on September 10, 2025, addressing recent national events and expressing support for conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.
In his first post at 18:51 UTC, Paquette wrote, "Our nation is entering a nightmare."
An hour later, at 19:49 UTC, he added, "God be with this man."
Shortly after, at 20:02 UTC, Paquette referenced Charlie Kirk in a third tweet: "Charlie Kirk has been an example for all of us who know and appreciate the immense value of discussing the hard matters that confront the nation face to face.
The American cause is defended and improved through reasonable discourse.
This is a horrific tragedy."
Paquette's comments come amid ongoing national debates and public incidents involving prominent political figures. As a Republican member of the Michigan House of Representatives since 2019, Paquette has previously voiced strong opinions on matters related to civic engagement and free speech.
Charlie Kirk is known as the founder and president of Turning Point USA, an organization that advocates for conservative values among students across the United States.
