ANNAPOLIS, MD—During an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union today, Governor Larry Hogan discussed the wave of violence and harassment against Asian Americans, his family’s experiences, and the need for leaders across the country to speak out.
First Lady Yumi Hogan is a first-generation Korean-American and the first Korean-American First Lady in the United States.

“It really has been a serious problem. My wife, my three daughters, my grandkids are all Asian. They’ve felt some discrimination personally, but they also have close friends—friends of my wife from church, some of my daughters’ friends—who’ve really been treated pretty terribly.
“Hate crimes in general were down 7%, but it was up 150% in the Asian community, and it’s outrageous, it’s unacceptable, and I think it was great that President Biden brought this up. It’s something I’ve been focused on.
“We feel it personally with my daughter, who’s sometimes afraid to come visit us; with people who had best friends that were harassed at the grocery store or being called names, and people yelling about the ‘China virus’ even though they’re from Korea and born in America.
“It’s something we have to get under control, and I wish more people would be speaking out, and I appreciate the president’s remarks.”
Well demand an investigation larry..democrats colluded with china to set us up with this virus…then the first thing you do is run to your family ties and make a deal for faulty test kits… i admire all races based on character. But draw the line on crimnals of all races.
$9M faulty crap
Hogan wannabe Hero’s no one in Maryland likes you!!
You are just the less of two EVILS!!
You poll as about as much of Karmala has!!
Hogan is trying so hard my goodness. Can someone please tell him he will never be President and will get destroyed. Instead of speaking with tapeworm how about get Maryland’s the vaccines.
This fat head is full of chit. What will be next to find a camera and blab. I wish someone would speak out against this want to be politician that I regret voting for.
Funny no one seems concerned about hate crimes against white people which take place in our schools, streets and by the media every day ! What about that Larry Lockdown
How about the wave of violence and harassment against white people
Umm wtf are you talking about lol these lunatics must have a crisis of the day list … all lies of course
Stricter punishment and quit acting like a Democrat and not lock them up with very strict punishment INSTEAD OF LETTING THEM BACK OUT TO ROAM THE STREETS AND CONTINUE THEIR CRIMINAL WAYS.
Your policies are JUST ANOTHER WAY IN VIOLATING FEDERAL ELECTION LAWS by using this method to BUY VOTES.
Big Head liberal POS!!! Never mentioned that it is a black problem not a white problem!
This guy is no good to the core!!
He such a liar
STFU you traitor youve made it obvious you dont work for us!!
Can wait to you join omally in obscurity
What a WORTHLESS Governor!! Who cares about you or your slanted eye family!!
Bing bing bang bang!!!!?
Like all white commies he’s stealing victim hood from a minority
Step daughters
They married non Asians
It’s sad that this guy had the opportunity to move Maryland to the right, but instead he changed after he was elected into some crazy left wing politician where truth doesn’t matter anymore. He just keeps saying anything that keeps the liberals happy. So So stupid!
He doing what the his lodge tells him….another useful idiot
Larry should pay more attention to things. Crime is rising against all races, especially whites. You know, white privilege, white supremacy? They all lead to crimes against those that are in fact white. I cannot wait for this looser to leave office.
He is not a member of the lodge and never has been. The lodge that you know absolutely nothing about is selective. That’s why you are not in it and never will be.
Be careful if you Keep it up larry..your deception and lies for the luciferians it Will cause your cancer to reappear
You know, I’m just going to vent for a second.
Who in blazes is doing the hiring at WMDT?
FYI advertisers on 47 –
You won’t be getting my business because I can no longer stand to watch the endless parade of losers that the station is hiring.
That’s a promise.
Hogan needs to be impeached has done zero for Md citizens everyday he has to have media attention. It is something about him that makes him think he is going to be our next president. Trying serving his last term & really do something that we need like getting schools opened through out the state, getting all jobs open. Do the job your supposed to do and stay away from cameras. How about addressing you work and stop trying to be up Biden’s butt.
Ditto!
Big Head Larry needed to place his Ocean City Property on the market, in large part because he crashed tnearly all buisness with his Draconian Democrat bullchit.
No one likes you Larry, and soon your LARGE State police escorts come to and End.
You become a person like us who need to work for a living.
You se Big Head Larry, Progressive Democrats are funded by the Globalists…., and WE THE PEOPLE outnumber Y’all.
..
Yes Big Head, you greatly disappointed all who voted for you , and when the investigations are completely done on voter fraud…
maybe you can ask President Trump if you can be hired to clean his toilet.
More gaslighting by CNN and Lockdown Larry jumps right on their bandwagon! There are many reasons people dislike you and your family, Larry. You victimized us all with your RINO ways knowing your population voted for a real 2A Republican.
You and your family are not the victims here.
And NOT one word about his buddy cumo executing 15 THOUSAND elderly people!!!!!!
NOT one word about his own tyrannical orders that destroyed every small business and the livelihoods of EVERY citizen in MD. He happily played and went along with the corrupt scheme of the communist destroying this Country….and there is a price to be paid. But, I will agree the retaliation should not be taken out on asian americans, but instead on every person tied to the corrupt administrations that ARE responsible for these crimes and treason against Americans.
Hey Larry why have you never spoken out against Asian discrimination at liberal universities like Harvard ???
You have to see what Larry is really doing … He understands Americans see China as our biggest enemy and threat so he’s giving them victim hood status …. Larry the Red is a traitor
This is interesting , he gets upset when it affects him or his family.
I can’t stand Hogan either but these anti-Asian comments reflect why conservatives are assumed to be racist and why I have to be careful who I let know I am a conservative- nice to see all of you equal opportunity haters out there.
Disgusting; I should probably stop reading this site and stick to Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson who speak truth objectively and with intelligence
Several points:
Hogan has been a major disappointment regarding championing Republican values, policies and agenda.
He married someone who is an American citizen of Asian descent, and apparently from time to time some of her family members have been insulted in some way, shape or form. That shouldn’t happen.
Hogan’s Ancestry DNA profile must have strains of McCain and Romney in it. As a useful idiot, currently the toast of the MSM, he’s become as big an attention whore as Markle
Clearly Larry should be in touch with Oprah’s booking agent. I’m laying in extra Kleenex!
hey Larry get the feeling nobody likes you lol
