Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.) denounced both “shameful” vandalism that occurred outside his Capitol hill office and antisemitic demonstrations that occurred in Chicago on Independence Day, accusing the perpetrators of empowering Hamas terrorists.

“My Capitol office was vandalized yesterday in a vile act of hate in which the posters of the more than 100 people still held hostage in Gaza (including 8 Americans) were ripped from the wall, shredded and tossed across the hallway,” Schneider, who is Jewish, posted Friday on X.

“This was a shameful act on any day, but especially on July 4, our country’s Independence Day. Sadly, it was but one of many hateful, un-American actions that took place across the country on the day we celebrate freedom and democracy,” he said.
