Conservative influencer and pro-life advocate, Savannah Craven Antao says she has already felt the sting of political violence—and fears it won’t be the last time. In an interview with Fox News Digital, she recalled being attacked on the streets of New York earlier this year, saying the assault left her with her “whole face cut open.”
“A lot of the time I’m met with violence and that led to me being brutally assaulted on the street back in April,” Craven Antao said. She tied her experience to the broader climate of hostility against conservatives, especially following the assassination of activist Charlie Kirk. “A difference of opinion is something that they’re willing to not only call you names over, assault you over, but then now we see, kill you over.”
Craven Antao credits her faith and Kirk’s influence for keeping her committed to speaking out. Quoting 2 Timothy 3:12—”all who want to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted”—she said the left’s violence is “nothing surprising.”
Her attacker walked free after Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s office dropped the case due to a missed filing deadline, a decision critics see as yet another example of soft-on-crime policies protecting violent offenders.
Still, she refuses to back down. “My goal is just to continue [Charlie Kirk’s] legacy and continue to try to save our country,” she said, warning conservatives to “be prepared for everything” as political violence escalates.
