YOUNGKIN FIRES EVENTBRITE




ICYMI: Governor Glenn Youngkin joined the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show to
share his response to Eventbrite kicking Riley Gaines off their website while
continuing to list pro-Hamas events.



“Let's just first recognize that a Hamas terrorist group invaded Israel and
conducted barbaric attacks on women and children and killed nearly 1,400
Israelis, and they need to be condemned. There's no place to sit on a fence
here – you're either condemning it or you're condoning it,”said Youngkin. “And
the fact that Eventbrite continues to carry events around Hamas is
unbelievable. But then, on top of that, to proactively terminate an agreement
with Riley is beyond belief.”

“When a company decides it's going to make statements on political and social
issues, they have to live with the consequences. And the blowback here has been
warranted,”Youngkin continued. “I think it results in the kind of action that
I've taken. I have told our political committee that we will no longer use
Eventbrite. The governor's office is no longer using Eventbrite. I would ask
your listeners, do not respond, or RSVP to an invitation from Eventbrite. Just
stop using them.”







“What should happen to companies that take these kinds of stances? The
customers can fire them. And, in our case, we fired them,”Youngkin said.

over its censorship

Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) directed his political committee and office not to
use Eventbrite, an online platform in which users host and schedule events, in
the wake of the platform's alleged censorship.



Eventbrite came under harsh criticism from conservatives after it removed an
event scheduled by Riley Gaines, an activist advocating the protection of
women's sports from transgender women. While the online event platform censored
Gaines, it has not taken action to remove events in support of the Hamas
terrorist group.

aftermath the start of their terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians.
