"We disrupted this fundraiser because we refuse to give a moment's peace to the people bankrolling racial violence," the group said in a statement cited by the outlet.
该组织还表示，它与明尼苏达州的民主-农民-劳工党（DFL）无关。

“恐吓、犯罪行为和种族主义言论在明尼苏达州政治中没有立足之地，”普莱查什写道。

“共和党人辩论思想，我们欢迎DFL站出来也这样做，”他补充道。“他们每保持沉默一小时，都在说明一些事情。他们的沉默令人震耳欲聋。”德穆思在八月赢得明尼苏达州共和党州长初选，将在十一月的选举中对阵民主党提名人克洛布查尔，以接任州长蒂姆·沃尔茨的职位。
"Republicans debate ideas, and we'd welcome the DFL to show up and do the same," he added. "Every hour they stay silent says something. Their silence is deafening." Demuth, who won Minnesota's Republican gubernatorial primary in August, will face off against Klobuchar, the Democratic nominee, in November's election to succeed Gov. Tim Walz.
