U.S. Park Police say they are investigating “criminal activity" after thousands of anti-Israel agitators descended on Washington, D.C.’s Lafayette Square over the weekend.
The protest descended into chaos after some demonstrators turned their attention to the statues in Lafayette Square just outside the White House and vandalized them with spray paint and graffiti. Brianna Herlihy is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
Other demonstrators turned their attention to park rangers working the area, shouting "F--- you, fascist!" and "Piggy, piggy, oink, oink!" Water bottles were aggressively thrown at rangers. One man wearing a Hamas headband held up a bloody face mask that depicted Biden and shouted, "Down, down occupation!" Another demonstrator lit an American flag on fire.
