Shocking video footage shows two arsonists attempting to light a Washington State House Republican campaign office on fire.
Republican Rep. J.T. Wilcox posted the video of the 4 AM, Monday morning attack on Twitter. One of the masked individuals is seen hammering the office door glass before the other throws a flare inside the building.
Wilcox said, “Early this morning a window was smashed and a lit flare was tossed into the office of my seatmate, Andrew Barkis. The building also houses the office of the House Republican election campaign. Fortunately the flare landed on a masonry floor and the building survived.” Early this morning a window was smashed and a lit flare was tossed into the office of my seatmate, Andrew Barkis.

The building was not successfully lit on fire due to the flare landing on a stone floor. The office space holds Representative Andrew Barkis’ office and also the office of the House Republican Organizational Committee.
The Democrat governor of Washington state, Jay Inslee, condemned the violent acts late Monday night.
“Such attempts at violence are abhorrent. We’re thankful no one was hurt. Hopefully law enforcement is able to identify these individuals before they inflict any more harm,” Inslee tweeted.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
