Bohannan and Wettach’s 5 Days of Silence

A new report exposes Democrat Travis Terrell for cheering on dangerous rhetoric and highlights the silence of his opponents, Christina Bohannan and Taylor Wettach, who still refuse to condemn it. 

In case you missed it, over the weekend the Johnson County Board of Supervisors Chair defied Governor Reynolds’ order to lower flags in honor of Charlie Kirk. Instead of showing respect, Travis Terrell celebrated the move, calling it “courageous.” 

Now five days later, Travis Terrell’s fellow Democrats Christina Bohannan and Taylor Wettach are still silent. They ‘re silence sends a clear message: they’re willing to tolerate rhetoric that fuels political violence. 

“Silence is compliance. Christina Bohannan and Taylor Wettach’s unwillingness to condemn this dangerous rhetoric tells you everything you need to know about their values.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Emily Tuttle

Democrat Candidate in Iowa Echoes Violent Rhetoric, Opponents Stay Silent

Travis Terrell, a Democrat running in the three-way primary for Iowa’s 1st Congressional District, has once again proven he’s unfit for public office—this time by defending the Johnson County Board Chair’s blatant refusal to obey Governor Kim Reynolds’ order to lower flags in honor of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

While Terrell’s fellow Democrats, Christina Bohannan and Taylor Wettach, have stayed silent on the issue, Terrell went a step further: issuing a divisive and inflammatory statement, doubling down on the Board Chair’s defiance. The message was clear—he sees political violence as something to rationalize, not reject.

[…]

Even worse, Bohannan and Wettach’s refusal to condemn Terrell or defend the Governor’s authority shows just how far left the Democratic Party has drifted. When Democrat candidates can’t even bring themselves to speak out against the refusal to lower a flag for a slain conservative, it’s no longer about politics—it’s about basic decency.

As NRCC Spokeswoman Emily Tuttle put it: “Silence is compliance. Christina Bohannan and Taylor Wettach’s unwillingness to condemn this dangerous rhetoric tells you everything you need to know about their values.”

Iowans should take note: The radicals aren’t just running—they’re being protected.
