Via The Hill:
Vice President Pence on Wednesday condemned the recent vandalism of a Jewish cemetery in St. Louis.
“On Monday morning America awoke to discover that nearly 200 tombstones were toppled in a nearby Jewish graveyard,” Pence said Wednesday.
“Speaking just yesterday, President Trump called this a horrible and painful act. And so it was. That along with other recent threats to Jewish community centers around the country, he declared it all a sad reminder of the work that still must be done to root out hate and prejudice and evil,” he continued.
“We condemn this vile act of vandalism and those who perpetrate it in the strongest possible terms.”
