The Michigan GOP Headquarters was vandalized with explicit graffiti twice in two separate incidents on Saturday morning and Monday night, according to a press release from the group.
“FUCK ICE” was spray painted prominently on the front of the building Saturday, the statement said. Another overnight attack Monday left an additional “FUCK ICE” message in conjunction with multiple “FUCK COX” statements, degrading the current chair of the Michigan GOP, Laura Cox. A campaign sign for John James, a Republican who recently announced a senate bid, was also defaced.
Cox was an ICE agent before she entered the political arena. It is alleged that her past in immigration enforcement may have sparked this explicit affront, Tony Zammit, Michigan GOP spokesman, told The Daily Caller News Foundation.
“Like children who don’t get their way, these criminals seek to bully those they disagree with, rather than engage in a civil discussion,” Cox said in a the press release, “These radical thugs choose to intimidate through graffiti and anonymous nighttime attacks, rather than contest their ideas in the press, in the public square and in the polling places.”
Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman for the Republican National Committee, was the former chair of the Michigan GOP. She expressed her outrage on Twitter and stood with Cox, saying, “Instead of senseless vandalism and rhetoric comparing ICE detention facilities to concentration camps, Democrats should work to secure our border and reform our broken immigration system.”
