Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley urged top Democrats to condemn political violence across the nation, claiming that those who do not are contributing to it through their “language.”
Whatley’s comments come after the headquarters of the New Mexico Republican Party was the target of vandalism and arson on Sunday, which included the phrase “ICE=KKK” spray-painted outside the building. Whatley argued that political violence is “absolutely” on the rise across the country, including the attacks on Tesla dealerships, and claimed it is a “direct result” of “incitement” by Democratic lawmakers.
