From Breitbart: Pro-Palestinian radicals vandalized the constituency office of Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-NY) in New York City early Tuesday, smashing windows, smearing the façade with red paint, and painting “Free Gaza” on the sidewalk outside.
The attack occurred shortly after October 7, the anniversary of the Hamas terror attack in Israel. There had been anti-Israel protests in New York City all day, with some demonstrators celebrating terrorism as a form of “resistance.”
The New York Post, which obtained surveillance video of the attack, reported Wednesday:
The footage shows two thugs — wearing hoods and surgical masks — beginning Tuesday’s rampage by lifting a roller door that had been protecting the workplace of the lawmaker, who has been targeted before over his support for the Jewish community.
Pro-Palestinian protesters were seen outside Rep. Adriano Espaillat’s district office in Washington Heights on Monday.
