The New York state Republican Party's headquarters experienced vandalism for the second time this month, with swastikas and a provocative message displayed. GOP leaders criticized Democrats, claiming their rhetoric fuels a climate hostile to civility and invites violence. Chairman Ed Cox urged a rejection of political violence, framing the vandalism as an assault on democracy and decency. Congressman Mike Lawler supported Cox's stance, linking escalating political unrest to statements made by prominent Democrats, which he argued encourage hostility against Republicans.
Vandals taped swastikas to the doors and windows of the GOP's offices and a message that read, 'If this is not what you stand for, prove it.'
New York GOP chairman Ed Cox blasted the 'hateful vandalism,' saying it 'invites political violence and threatens the wellbeing of our employees and guests.'
