Mark McCloskey Officially Announces Senate Campaign
19th May 2021
Mark McCloskey, the St. Louis attorney who gained national attention after he and his wife pointed weapons at Black Lives Matter protesters outside his home last summer, announced his campaign for the U.S. Senate Tuesday.
“God came knocking on my door disguised as an angry mob. It really did wake me up,” he told Fox News “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” while making his announcement to run in the race to fill the seat of retiring Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., who is not running for reelection when his term expires in 2022.
“It seemed to me that people have to stand up. Each and every one of us needs to stand up and say we are not sheep, we are a free people,” McCloskey further commented.
