Asked by a radio host whether he could assure that the meeting would remain safe and that “nobody is going to get hurt,” Eisen answered bluntly.

“No,” he said. “I don’t know, because what we’re doing today is uncharted. It hasn’t been done. It’s not me doing it. It’s the Michigan Party, Republican Party. I’m just here to witness.”

A spokesperson for the Michigan Republican Party told the Detroit Free Press on Monday that he is “unaware of what Rep. Eisen is referring to.”

In a statement, Michigan state House Speaker Lee Chatfield (R) and Speaker-elect Jason Wentworth (R) condemned any suggestion of violence. They said that Eisen had been removed from his committee posts as a result of his comments.

“We as elected officials must be clear that violence has no place in our democratic process,” Chatfield and Wentworth said. “We must be held to a higher standard. Because of that, Rep. Eisen has been removed from his committee assignments for the rest of the term.”
