The son of Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.) said he was assaulted by “socialists” while painting advertisements for an upcoming event on the campus of North Carolina State University.

Jack Bishop, 19, a freshman, said he and members of Turning Point USA were on campus on Nov. 11 painting advertisements for an event called Culture Wars when a group of Young Democratic Socialists of America “rolled up on us with spray paint and proceeded to spray my eyes, neck/head, and torso.”
