AOC’s Bronx Office Vandalized Because She Apparently Isn’t Anti-Israel Enough

Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Bronx office was vandalized by pro-Palestinian activists late Sunday night after she voted against a proposed amendment cutting U.S. funding for Israel.

The congresswoman’s office in the East Bronx was covered in red paint, along with a sign reading, “AOC funds genocide in Gaza,” according to the New York Post. Images published by the Post show various paint splatters over the front of the building and the sidewalk as well.

A self-proclaimed anti-Israel group, Boogie Down Liberation Front, appeared to take credit for the incident. “The Bronx is sick and tired of people like AOC and Ritchie Torres using 🇺🇸US as a stepping stone for their own political careers,” they said in a statement given to the Post that was published on X by an independent journalist.

“The Bronx stands with the people of Palestine and we denounce the hypocrisy of AOC who voted to fund Israel’s ongoing genocide and starvation campaign in Gaza. FUCK AOC!” they continued.

The incident comes days after she broke ranks with her fellow progressive “Squad” Democratic members and voted alongside 421 other House representatives against funding cuts to the Israeli Defense Forces.

Ocasio-Cortez’s office did not respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation
