An arson and vandalism attack on the New Mexico Republican Party headquarters has ignited bipartisan condemnation of political violence.
The incident occurred early Sunday morning, with investigators reporting graffiti comparing ICE to the Ku Klux Klan and significant smoke damage to the building. Republicans have accused Democrats of fostering a climate that encourages such acts through inflammatory rhetoric. GOP leaders, including RNC Chairman Michael Whatley, are calling on Democrats to explicitly denounce political violence.
The event has intensified the national debate over political discourse and its potential consequences.

Political violence is never okay—full stop. But it's pretty rich hearing the GOP complain about "inflammatory rhetoric" after years of Trump rallies and January 6th.
