If you're talking to somebody who is "Charlie Kirk this, and Charlie Kirk that" and you have to remind them about Melissa Hortman then probably you're wasting your time.

This just breaks my heart. The trump administration puts no value on human lives. Nothing will come out of this man’s term of any value to the human race it is all about money.

Only a truly despicable White Christian Nationalist would murder the Hortmans and their golden retriever Gilbert. I hope this corrupt MAGA DOJ prosecutes the alleged perpetrator to the full extent of the law.

What a remarkable woman Melissa Hortman was and how much this exceptional individual meant to the quality of the state of Minnesota and the country. Words cannot express what so many of us feel with the enormous loss of her and Mark and her beloved Gilbert. We can only continue to honor her work.

I'm sorry for your loss. Reading the article made me think I would have loved to be her friend. I'm so glad this piece brought her back into the minds of not just her colleagues and friends, but to all of us who never got to meet her, but still grieve the loss of a fine human being.

MAGA is literally the dictionary definition of a terrorist organization. They control their party leaders with threats of, and have actually committed acts of....political violence MAGA literally practices terrorism Nuff said.

Thank you for writing this, it was so well done. The three of them should still be here. It’s so crushingly sad and infuriating. I’m glad to know more about who she was as a person, but it makes it that much more heartbreaking at the same time. It’s just unfathomable. My heart aches for their family

I'm shocked at how little attention this horrible assassination has garnered in comparison to the admittedly terrible fraud in MN. The fraud will be used to try to drum Tim Walz out of office.

Yes, very true! And Walz is rolling over like Biden did. He is poised to lose to Lundell. Melissa did all the work for the things Walz takes credit for, the free lunches, etc. He merely signed the bills. A Mamdani needs to step up now to stop this takeover. Walz is a dnc corp dem.

Walz won't lose to Lindell, who's distant 4th in even Republican polls. But he very well could lose to the current speaker of the house, Lisa Demuth (R). Like Biden, Walz shouldn't have run again and instead spent this last term mentoring someone new.

What a beautiful soul who was loved by all. My heart still breaks for her children (especially), her family and everyone who knew her. Melissa, Mark and Gilbert…. RIP 😢
