U.S. media reported that the words “Where’s my money” and “Mitch (McConnell) killed the poor” were written on the front door and windows of U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell’s home in Louisville, Kentucky.
According to local news channel WAS11, the Louisville Metro Police Department said the incident occurred around 5 a.m. local time on the 2nd. It’s unclear if anyone was home at the time.
McConnell described the graffiti as “bigoted temper play,” saying, “The politics of vandalism and resorting to fear have no place in our society.
In a statement, McConnell said, “I have spent my entire career fighting for the First Amendment and defending peaceful protest. I thank every Kentuckian who has participated in the democratic process, whether they agree with me or not.
But this (situation) is different,” McConnell added. The politics of deliberate destruction and fear have no place in our society,” he added.
He added, “My wife and I have never been intimidated by this kind of viciousness. We just hope that our neighbors in Louisville are not inconvenienced by this kind of bigoted temper play.
