Hillsdale County Republicans spark backlash with ‘Insurrection Anniversary’

he HCRP’s “Insurrection Anniversary” took place during its monthly meeting on Jan. 6, according to party secretary Jon Smith. The event, which took place at 6 p.m. in Sozo Church Hillsdale, featured several speakers who attended the Stop the Steal rally.

“They are setting up to establish a celebration of Jan. 6, 2021, which I think is horrible,” Shirkey said to Jackson TV. “Nobody should be celebrating what happened on Jan. 6 2021, but they’re doing it.”

Hillsdale County Republicans took 104 people and two buses to the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Smith said.

The public reacted negatively to the event, according to Smith.
