OCONOMOWOC, WI – Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05) issued the following statement in response to a Wisconsin teen accused of murdering his parents and plotting to assassinate President Donald Trump.

“I want to thank the FBI and local law enforcement for their quick, coordinated response to stop another plot to assassinate the President. We grieve for the two innocent individuals who were killed in connection with this plot. My prayers are with their loved ones as they endure this unimaginable loss,” said Congressman Fitzgerald.

“Unfortunately, this incident reflects a dangerous trend. Reckless political rhetoric—especially from the Left—continues to inflame tensions and, in some cases, encourage violence against our elected officials. I will continue to stand with law enforcement and support efforts to ensure the safety of our communities and elected officials,” Fitzgerald concluded.
