American Flag With Swastika Is Found in Republican Congressman’s Office

Representative Dave Taylor of Ohio condemned the symbol as “vile” and said his office was investigating with the U.S. Capitol Police.

A Republican congressman from Ohio said on Wednesday that his office and the U.S. Capitol Police were investigating after an American flag that had been altered to depict a swastika was found in his Capitol Hill office.

A photo of the flag, which was obtained and reported by Politico, shows that some of its red and white stripes had been arranged into the shape of a swastika. Politico reported that the image was taken during a virtual meeting that included a member of Representative Dave Taylor’s staff.

“I am aware of an image that appears to depict a vile and deeply inappropriate symbol near an employee in my office,” Mr. Taylor said in a statement. “The content of that image does not reflect the values or standards of this office, my staff or myself, and I condemn it in the strongest terms.”

His office said the flag, which appeared to be pinned to a cubicle wall, was “vandalism.”

Mr. Taylor is a first-term congressman representing a district east of Cincinnati. Upon learning of the image, he said in the statement, he “immediately” opened an investigation alongside the U.S. Capitol Police. The investigation is continuing, and “no further comment will be provided until it has been completed,” he said.

In response to an email seeking comment, the Capitol Police said its public information office was closed because of the government shutdown. The department did not immediately respond to a phone message.

A spokeswoman for Mr. Taylor did not immediately respond to a request for comment.[/QUOTE}

I mean, they're not trying to hide it, Trump's boy Musky did two Nazi salutes in public after he got elected.

The problem is that at least 40% of the population is sympathetic to Nazis and that may be an undercount

These newer Republicans aren't trying to hide it and seem to want to be bold about it rather than wanting to become career politicians with money and power

 

[O.T.I.S.]

This country is obsessed with losers

Almost feels like a lost cause. Anyone who has shyt going for themselves needs to come up with an exit strategy… like I ALMOST had.

Check the sig..

Hate to sound like a downer, but if the last 10 years have not been enough of an alarm for you, then you are a fukking retard and are done out here. When you get to a point where people feel comfortable to put shyt like that up, we have let things go way too far. But like always, voting does not matter/both sides/Kamala was not FBA/etc.... .
