Gawker is reporting that Benjamin Cole, Aaron Schock’s senior adviser for policy and communications, resigned this afternoon after a series of racially-charged Facebook posts—including one in which he compares black people to zoo animals—were obtained and published by ThinkProgress.

In another since-deleted post, Cole writes that he “thinks they should build a mosque on the White House grounds,” in an apparent dig at Obama.
