A Republican campaign volunteer was brutally beaten by people who said Republicans 'weren't allowed' in their area, Florida GOP Senator Marco Rubio said on Monday morning.
The canvasser was clad in Rubio's campaign gear and that of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the senator said.
'Last night one of our canvassers wearing my T-shirt and a Desantis hat was brutally attacked by 4 animals who told him Republicans weren’t allowed in their neighborhood,' Rubio wrote on Twitter.
'He suffered internal bleeding, a broken jaw & will need facial reconstructive surgery.'
It's not immediately clear whether law enforcement is investigating the alleged incident, or what led up to it.
Growing political divisions have led to a surge in online and real life confrontations that have enveloped both lawmakers and everyday Americans.
The Department of Homeland Security has sent out multiple bulletins this year alone that warn of increased threats against federal employees and others in the political sphere.
All the while, violent rhetoric is becoming normalized language to invigorate the voter base.
Donald Trump said earlier in October that Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell 'has a death wish' over the Kentucky Republican's vote to fund the government and avoid a shutdown.
And Democrat Rep. Tim Ryan, who is running for an open Senate seat in Ohio, said on MSNBC last month that Americans must 'kill and confront' the MAGA Republican movement

If the Republicans pull down some good numbers in November, then the radical left will be out in streets seeking revenge. Stay safe out there.
Yeah, it’s Trump’s fault. Orange man bad!
“See the documentary by Babylon Bee.”
A documentary in the Bee? Hell has frozen over!
biden’s Sept 1 hate speech is what gave the criminals permission to beat up the Republican guy.
A while back I had an interaction with a Beto supporter (on my job). I didn’t feel any urges to do him violence. I wasn’t even rude to him. We had a perfectly civil interaction.
In fact, I felt sorry for him. ( I also thought he was about half a bubble off level,which didn’t surprise me.)
Americans may want to start carrying when they go in these far left foreigner neighborhoods.
I am so sick of MSM and the Democrats claiming Conservatives are violent when it is their foot soldiers killing and maiming Americans day in and day out. They need to be held accountable.
This article is a good example of the BS they peddle.
Where the HELL was it???
“Donald Trump said earlier in October that Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell ‘has a death wish’ over the Kentucky Republican’s vote to fund the government and avoid a shutdown.“
ANTIFA REPLACED THE KLAN In the DEMOCRAT PARTY!
We all here know what they look like, down to the color of their skin, down to the texture of their hair, down to the hair style itself. We know.
You do realize the Bee “documentary “was fake and satire?
Is that a pic of the victim?
Rubio saud ge was wearing a Rubio shirt
Never mind. I had a brain collapse
The answer just seems obvious to me, canvassars start concealed carrying in that neighborhood and move in teams rather than as individuals. If someone wants to start something well good luck to them at that point.
find the perps and sue them for everything they got, and everything they will ever have.
Or just stomp on their melons until you see brains, blood and piss where their heads were.
Did Little Marco really just call them “animals”?
Stung by the BEE!
