MUNCIE, Ind. — After her disastrous Friday night town hall in Westfield, Indiana, Republican Victoria Spartz held a second town hall on Saturday morning in Muncie. She addressed another crowd that was fed up with the non-answers she provided Hoosiers.<\/span>

<\/span>Before Spartz even took the microphone, she was met with boos and jeers from the crowd.<\/span><\/p>

Attendees demanded to know why Sparts has allowed the billionaire coup of Elon Musk’s DOGE, which has laid off tens of thousands of workers from various government departments and agencies.<\/span><\/p>

“I’m really worried about what’s happening… Spartz fully supports Trump. She fully supports DOGE… overall we’re sliding towards fascism,” said Holly Hannauer, a local Muncie resident who attended the town hall.<\/span><\/p>

Spartz claimed that if Musk hadn’t created DOGE, she would have been the one to spearhead the initiative. When one attendee questioned the constitutionality of DOGE’s creation, Spartz replied that it was well within the President’s discretion.<\/span><\/p>

“They don’t need [congressional approval] because they do just a favor to the country,” Spartz said. “We need to be good with your money.” The crowd erupted in chants: “Tax the rich!”<\/span><\/p>

Another attendee, Morgan Mullins, stood up and demanded accountability for the “blood” paid by the working class due to the administration’s attacks on working-class families. “You talk about money? You [Spartz] have said yourself that all the people pay in blood… I came today and yesterday to break bread with you, I bought bread, because I don’t want to yell, I want to be nice.” Mullins said.<\/span><\/p>

Immediately after, she was dragged and then carried out of the meeting by multiple police officers and refused re-entry.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Mullins represented the views and backgrounds of many constituents who came to the town hall. She felt the need to speak out after attempting to reach Spartz’s offices multiple times, to no avail.<\/span><\/p>

“We live paycheck to paycheck, and I know that we struggle, and if we struggle, then I know that other people are struggling,” Mullins said. “I know that people are dying, and I just can’t sit here and be complicit with it anymore. I have a privilege and I need to use it.”<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
