The Philadelphia home of one of the defense attorneys for former President Donald Trump during his impeachment trial was vandalized Friday evening.
After spending hours on the Senate floor, attorney Michael van der Veen returned home to find broken windows and the word “TRAITOR” spray-painted on his driveway, The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

“My home was attacked,” van der Veen said on Fox News Saturday. “To answer your question, my entire family, my business, my law firm are under siege right now.”
And demonstrators assembled outside of van der Veen’s downtown Philadelphia office, calling him a “fascist” and chanting, “When van der Veen lies, what do you do? Convict. Convict.”
