‘F**k DJT’: Alleged Antifa radical accused of trying to burn down Republican headquarters

An alleged Antifa sympathizer was arrested and is facing federal charges after she was accused of attempting to set fire to a Republican Party headquarters building in Texas.

On Jan. 14, Grace Carol Brown, 22, broke a window at the Comal County Republican Party Headquarters in New Braunfels, Texas, court filings claimed. She allegedly threw a backpack through the broken window and unsuccessfully attempted to climb inside.

Brown ‘also expressed support for, and agreement with the anti-government principles espoused by the domestic terrorist organization “ANTIFA.”’

After failing to enter the building, Brown “lit a rolled magazine on fire and threw it through the broken window,” the indictment claimed.

She allegedly left behind a note that read, “Report this: I burned down the Nazi Party of NB’s office. F**k DJT,” presumably referring to President Donald Trump.

“F**k ICE,” the note continued. “Liberty or die.”

The note Brown allegedly left included an image of three arrows, which the indictment claimed was an “anarchist symbol associated with the domestic terrorist organization ANTIFA.”

Inside Brown’s backpack, authorities discovered one container of ethanol, two containers of gasoline, a lighter, and matches, according to court filings.

Brown was charged with one count of actual and attempted malicious damage by fire to property involved in interstate or foreign commerce. The indictment listed Comal County Republican Party Headquarters as a victim, as well as two other businesses, an auto sales business and a storage company, that were also housed in the same building.

The indictment claimed that Brown “displayed antipathy towards the goals and activities” of the Comal County Republican Party Headquarters. It stated that she also displayed antipathy toward Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Trump, and the U.S. government’s actions against illegal immigration.

She allegedly referred to ICE and Trump as “Enemies of The US Constitution.”

Brown “also expressed support for, and agreement with the anti-government principles espoused by the domestic terrorist organization ‘ANTIFA,’” the indictment claimed.

Authorities arrested Brown on Jan. 22. If convicted, she faces five to 20 years in federal prison.

The Comal County Republican Party and Brown’s attorneys did not respond to a request for comment.
