University of Michigan regent's home vandalized

Another home of a University of Michigan leader was vandalized over the weekend, including the spray-painting of a vehicle with a pro-Palestinian slogan, an official said Monday.

The UM Board of Regents said the Huntington Woods home and vehicle of attorney and UM Regent Jordan Acker, who is Jewish, were both vandalized Sunday night.

The board said someone threw a mason jar through one of his home's windows and spray-painted the words "Divest and Free Palestine" on the SUV of Acker, who has been on the board since 2019 and whose term ends at the finish of 2026.

Acker also said an unknown person spray-painted a vehicle at his home.
The incident comes about six months after vandals targeted Acker's Southfield law office. They spray-painted the words "Free Palestine" and "Divest Now" on the building. The law firm said the attack was being investigated as a hate crime.

everywhere they go. When will they screw up the courage to confront Trump and his minions on their extreme anti Pal policies.
