Emanuel became the target of anti-Semitic vandals over the weekend who spray painted the word 'Nazis' on a fence outside the house in Michigan.
Emanuel, 63, a Jewish-American who was formerly the mayor of Chicago and is considered one of former President Barack Obama's closest confidantes, was not home at the time of the incident which occurred in the beach community of Union Pier, around 75 miles north of the Windy City.
'Our family is very proud of how our friends neighbors and the community have rallied to our support and in a singular voice in condemning hatred and bigotry,' Emanuel said in a brief statement.
Reformed Neo-Nazi leader Jeff Schoep told ABC Chicago that anti-Semitic groups have become 'emboldened' by mass demonstrations denouncing Israel. Speaking about the attack on Emanuel's home, Schoep said it's 'intended to be insulting. It's extremely hateful and vile, and that's the intention behind it.'
The graffiti attack was also condemned by the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Uh huh
In Japan, his longstanding West Wing ties are seen as an advantage by the government of Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, which is eager to tighten bonds with Washington, a senior Japanese official told Reuters in September.
Emanuel and his wife, Amy Rule, have maintained a retreat in Union Pier for decades.
A day earlier, Neo-Nazis marched unopposed on Wisconsin's state capitol waving swastika flags, performing Hitler salutes and leaving onlookers shaking with fear. Around 20 members of the self-styled 'Blood Tribe' group halted outside a former synagogue chanting 'Israel is not our friend' and 'there will be blood' as state police looked on.
By the end of October, the ADL said that anti-Semitic attacks were up 400 percent in the US since October 7 compared against the same time period last year.
Government officials met American-Jewish leaders last month to discuss steps to counter what a White House official described as an alarming uptick in reported instances of antisemitism on university campuses.
