As we first alerted you just a few weeks ago, Congressman Glenn Grothman faced a hostile crowd at his in person town hall just outside Oshkosh. Then this past Saturday, Weed was confronted by a protester at a rally in Suamico for Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimmel. The person making the scene was removed by law enforcement. I encourage people to bring the temperature down. That's what I will do in leading through that process. But I was thankful there was law enforcement there. It's very unfortunate. (02:01–02:13)
