Brandon City Officials Take Down Anti-Biden Slogan on Welcome Signs

City officials in Brandon are not happy with those who defaced the west-central Minnesota city’s welcome signs on the edge of town.

Brandon City Clerk Deb Grommesh says someone added the words “Let’s Go” to the welcome signs which were discovered Monday.

The slogan “Let’s Go Brandon” stems from a NASCAR broadcast where fans were chanting “—- Joe Biden.”

Grommesh said “we understand and embrace freedom of speech, but we will not tolerate damage or alteration to government property.”

Douglas County Emergency Manager Julie Anderson says six signs were altered with plywood or cardboard.

Anderson says the signs have been restored and were not damaged permanently.

Anderson says there will not be a criminal investigation because the signs weren’t actually damaged.
