Flooding from the remnants of Hurricane Ida obliterated the Project Veritas office in Mamaroneck, New York, the group announced Friday.

Photos of the office shared Friday by Daily Beast reporter Will Sommer show destruction including overturned furniture, scattered books, major flooding outside the building, and a ruined stuffed alpaca that the group uses as a mascot.

Project Veritas, founded by James O'Keefe, is known for running undercover operations targeting liberals and selectively editing videos. O'Keefe posted a video Friday asking for donations to help rebuild the headquarters.

Cities across the Northeast have been damaged by the storm which traveled northeast Wednesday night into Thursday morning.

Major flooding and some rare tornadoes plagued the area, with the current death toll from the extreme weather up to 46 as of Friday.
