Senator Aric Nesbitt, a Republican member of the Michigan Senate, posted a series of statements on October 19, 2025, addressing concerns about national security and political violence. In his initial post, Nesbitt called for prayers regarding the President’s safety, stating, "Pray for the President’s safety. We can’t tolerate this insanity." (October 19, 2025).

Later that day, Nesbitt emphasized the importance of law enforcement and criticized Democratic leaders. He wrote, "Law and order must be upheld. It’s time for Democrats to put America FIRST, stop promoting violence and stop protecting criminals." (October 19, 2025).

In a subsequent post on the same date, Nesbitt asserted, "The left has fully embraced domestic terrorism." (October 19, 2025).

Nesbitt's remarks come amid ongoing national debates over political rhetoric and public safety. The issue of violence connected to political discourse has been a subject of bipartisan concern in recent years. As a state senator from Michigan, Nesbitt has previously spoken out on issues related to law enforcement and public safety.

The comments reflect broader tensions between Republican and Democratic leaders over how best to address incidents of violence and ensure national security.
