Damn the graffiti, full steam ahead! This is likely the only statue of Admiral Farragut in the whole country, whereas MLK has a statue, bust, relief, or mural in every major city and in many small ones, too, not to mention dozens of streets, schools, and libraries named after him.

The Polish ambassador in Washington Piotr Wilczek has called on the White House and the National Parks Service to restore the monument quickly to its original state.

“I am disgusted and appalled by the acts of vandalism committed against the statue of Thaddeus Kościuszko in DC, a hero who fought for the independence of both the US and Poland,” he wrote on Twitter.
