Original Note:
Rep. Taylor's office reported the altered flag to Capitol Police as vandalism. It features a swastika visible only in photos due to an optical illusion. Similar flags were distributed to multiple congressional offices; origin and intent under investigation. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/15/capitol-police-investigating-swastika-in-gop-congressional-office-00609704 https://www.foxnews.com/politics/optical-illusion-swastika-flags-distributed-multiple-congressional-offices-prompt-investigation-sources
