Watching President Joe Biden extol his record during Thursday’s State of the Union address was more than the parents of murder victim Laken Riley could stand, a GOP congressman said.
Riley, 22, was killed last month on the Athens, Georgia, campus of the University of Georgia. Jose Ibarra, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela who had a child endangerment charge against him in New York state and a shoplifting charge against him in Georgia, has been charged with killing Riley.
Republican Rep. Mike Collins of Georgia posted on X that he invited Riley’s parents.
“I invited Laken Riley’s parents to the State of the Union address, but understandably, they have chosen to stay home as they grieve the loss of their daughter,” he wrote.
However, Collins said he is still sending a message he hopes Biden will see.
they should show up at trump rallys to bury Biden !!
