Mint Press journalist Randi Nord arrested in connection with Oak Park synagogue vandalism

A former Mint Press News journalist has been arrested in connection with the spray-painting of a swastika onto a synagogue in Oak Park, Illinois.

Randi Nord was reportedly charged with ethnic intimidation, a felony carrying a maximum penalty of two years in prison, and malicious destruction of a building, a misdemeanor with a maximum penalty of 93 days in prison and a fine three times the value of the destruction.

Mint Press News responded by stating: “Mint Press News condemns the displays of hate drawn on the Royal Oak Synagogue by Randi Nord, a former writer that contributed to MintPress in 2018 on a freelance basis.”

The far-left news outlet has repeatedly attacked Zionism and labelled the creation of a Jewish state a racist endeavour.

According to the International Definition of Antisemitism, “denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination”is an example of antisemitism. 

Mint Press News has since reportedly erased Ms Nord’s name from her articles on their website, rather than deleting the content.
