Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's district office in New York was vandalized over the weekend by a group of pro-Palestinian activists angry over her recent vote to maintain U.S. defense funding for Israel.
The incident occurred days after Ocasio-Cortez broke from several fellow progressive "Squad" members and voted against an amendment introduced by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) to slash $500 million in aid to Israel's air defense systems, according to the New York Post. The amendment failed in a 6–422 vote but exposed divisions on the left over how to address U.S. support for Israel amid the ongoing war in Gaza.
