Rep. Gallego's office contacts U.S. Capitol Police after home was targeted by Patriot Movement AZ

The office of U.S. Rep. Ruben Gallego contacted the U.S. Capitol Police after members of a right-wing group, Patriot Movement AZ, posted photos and video of the Arizona congressman's Phoenix home on social media and protested outside his property.

Members of the group posted several images on Twitter said to be Gallego's house, along with messages attacking him for opposing a border wall while living in a gated community, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which reported the posts to Gallego's office.

By Wednesday night, the tweets had been taken down, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Members of the group also posted a video on Facebook of themselves standing outside Gallego's gated community in Phoenix.

I live on an unpaved road and my GATE to my property is always open (unless the horses get out of the pasture.) Who would have known that he would decide to live with the rich people? I do know why "they" are protesting, it is because he is both a DEMOCRATIC & a MINORITY. The GATE does keep the undesirables out but "guess" are always welcomed.........CHEERS
