A Florida supporter of former Republican President Donald Trump was arrested Friday after he spray-painted a Pinellas County house with several pieces of bigoted far-right, pro-Trump graffiti.

He was so incensed by his arrest he began "kicking and screaming" at law enforcement.


Among the defacements 32-year-old Geoffrey Pearson Holtman painted on the house and nearby vehicles were the word "Trump," a swastika, several racial slurs and the phrase "Let's Go Brandon"—a right-wing catchphrase against Democratic President Joe Biden that stands for "F'k Joe Biden."

According to local news station WFLA, Holtman behaved so bizarrely during his arrest, police took him to the hospital to make sure he was not experiencing a medical issue.

While transferring Holtman from a patrol car to a transfer van, police reported he refused to speak, move or open his eyes, so they took him to the hospital.

After he was medically cleared, Holtman began screaming at and kicking the police officers as they transferred him back to the police van. A struggle ensued in which police had to physically pick Holtman up while immobilizing his feet to get him back into the vehicle.

Holtman did $5000 worth of damage to the woman's house, garage door and decor in her front yard, as well as to a car and an RV parked nearby, spraying racist and anti-semitic graffiti on both and shattering one of the car's windows.

Since being taken into custody, he's been charged with three counts of criminal mischief and one count of resisting law enforcement without violence--a curious charge given Pearson's physical attacks against the officers.

On Twitter, people were shocked by the incident and the resulting charges, with many wondering if hate crime charges may be forthcoming given a swastika was among the things Pearson painted.










While others saw yet another example of how white people are treated more leniently by police than Black people.


Though the FBI has reported a steady uptick in hate crimes across the country in recent years, including in Florida.

On October 7, Loomer shared a photo on X that was allegedly taken at a Department of Motor Vehicles office in New York City. The MAGA influencer also tagged NYC's progressive Democratic Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani's personal X account.

Susan Collins Dragged After GOP PAC Boosts Her Campaign In The Wrong Portland

On July 4, 1786, the city of Portland, Maine, was officially founded with its newly-minted name. Almost 60 years later in 1845, Maineiac Francis Pettygrove won a coin toss against Asa Lovejoy and named their soon-to-be incorporated city in Oregon Portland after the largest city in his home state of Maine.

Since then, Portland, Oregon, has swelled to a city of approximately 675,000 people while its namesake boasts a population of just 70,000. In 2026, when people hear Portland, they think of Oregon instead of the original city in Maine.

CNN Just Visited A Struggling MAGA Store—And It Spells Bad News For Trump

CNN correspondent Elle Reeve returned to Whitey Taylor's Trump Town USA in Boones Mill, Virginia, for the first time since visiting in 2023, and her segment shows that business for the Donald Trump-themed shop has collapsed as more MAGA followers break away from the president.

Reeve, in a segment for Anderson Cooper 360, reported that "things aren't what they used to be" for the store. She spoke with Taylor, who revealed that the store, which used to make $12,000 to $15,000 in sales per day now only makes between $1,500 - $2,000 per day. On occasion, Taylor will hit $3,000 in sales if he's lucky.

JD Vance Blasted After Sharing His Absolutely Mind-Numbing Definition Of 'Socialism'

According to Merriam-Webster, socialism broadly refers to economic and political systems centered on collective or government ownership and control of the means of production.

Not exactly a concept requiring a Ph.D. to explain. One would think Vice President JD Vance, a Yale Law School graduate whose party practically uses the word as punctuation, could manage a working definition.
