According to a photo posted to Twitter by Florida-based Jan. 6 insurrectionist Brandon Leslie, the building now features the words “Eat Shit Fascists” on the outside entry of the building, which is located in a strip mall in Casselberry, Florida.
“Biden called Republicans fascists and days later the Seminole GOP office is vandalized,” said the U.S. Capitol trespasser in a tweet.
The Seminole County Republican Party could not be reached for comment, and their office is closed today. However, the group posted about the incident on its Facebook page, saying “Our office was vandalized this weekend, our answer to hate, clean up and move on. “
It’s unclear exactly when this incident occurred, but notably today is the first day of trial for Seminole County GOP Chairman Ben Paris, and his alleged involvement in a “ghost” candidate voter fraud scheme from 2020.
Paris is also the former mayor of nearby Longwood.
The incident also seems to fall shortly after neo-Nazis were waving flags again in the Tampa Bay region of the weekend. Photos from a neo-Nazi demonstration in downtown Tampa last month showed them waving swastikas flags, as well as “DeSantis Country” flags.
