NEW: Bomb Squad Visits The Home Of Top Biden Administration Official

A local bomb squad was deployed to the Washington, D.C. home of National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on Monday morning in response to an unruly protest.

The Western Journal reports that a ““small amount of manure” was thrown at Sullivan’s house and a “suspicious package” was left behind after The People’s Forum, a left-wing group that has organized previous anti-Israel protests, took responsibility to the crime.

Labeling Sullivan a “war criminal,” an antiwar activist threw the manure at Sullivan’s home from the window of a passing car, leading to a suspicious package response by the U.S. Secret Service, a law enforcement official confirmed to POLITICO. Local police were dispatched to the scene to clean up the mess.

The official confirmed that an ongoing investigation will review red lights and traffic cameras to identify the culprit. A spokesperson for the National Security Council referred questions to the Secret Service which told the Washington Post that a perimeter had been set up around Sullivan’s West End neighborhood home. The “report of a suspicious package” came in around 8:30 a.m. later that morning.

“The Metropolitan Police Department’s Explosive Ordinance Disposal team responded and declared the scene as safe,” declared Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi. “The incident is under investigation.”

Sullivan was the victim of another lapse in security in April 2023 when an intoxicated man entered his home, according to the New York Post. Sullivan at the time politely asked the confused man to leave before alerting his round-the-clock security team.

On Christmas last year, pro-Palestinian agitators surrounded Sullivan’s home in a mass protest over the Biden administration’s refusal to call for a cease-fire in Israel’s ongoing war with Hamas.

Sullivan, 47, has been the top national security deputy to President Joe Biden since he took office, accompanying the Democrat on overseas junkets and providing counsel on top foreign policy matters. His targeting is the latest sign that far-left activists are stepping up their calls for peace in the Middle East less than one day after the United Nations Security Council approved a resolution calling for a ceasefire in which the U.S. abstained, Reuters reported.

John Kirby, the White House’s national security spokesman, said at a briefing that the U.S. initially worked to broker a resolution it could support before backing away and that the administration continues to support an end to the conflict.

“Today, as you all know, we abstained on the U.N. Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza until the end of Ramadan and the release of all the hostages. Our vote does not — I repeat — does not represent a shift in our policy,” Kirby said according to a White House transcript.

“We’ve been very clear, we’ve been very consistent in our support for a ceasefire as part of a hostage deal. That’s how the hostage deal was structured and the resolution acknowledges the ongoing talks.”
