More details have emerged about the Wednesday night shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, that has left two staffers from the Israeli Embassy dead. The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) held a press conference a short time ago and revealed that 30-year-old Elias Rodriquez of Chicago, Illinois, had been taken into custody by law enforcement officials on suspicion of carrying out what increasingly looks like a brutal act of anti-semitism.

Chillingly, multiple sources report that Rodriquez was heard chanting, "Free, free Palestine!" while in custody.

Chris Wray’s FBI spent 4 years telling us that “white supremacy” was the biggest terror threat to the nation. He was silent on the two biggest actual threats: transgender ideology and pro-Hamas ideology

DUH, of course it was anti-semitism - we are promoting it on college campuses.

All those keffiyeh-wearing Pali-flag waving sollegians are accessories.

Round up RICO!

Where is this place “Illinoise” to which the DC police chief refers?

I’m waiting to hear two things. He was on our radar, and secondly, we are still trying to determine his motivation. I wonder how he got to DC?

Democrats kill people they don’t like.

They even yell out why, when doing the killing.

In D.C., thankfully, for them, Democrats get away with just about any crime they commit.

95% of voters in D.C. are Democrats. Sadly, they target the few conservatives and independents, and foreign visitors, to kill.

It is not a place. It is the sound made by Chicago terrorists who commit murders and make the Left happy.

“Wednesday night shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC, that has left two staffers from the Israeli Embassy dead”

I suspect some planning was involved since its was “two staffers from the Israeli Embassy” that were killed.

So do South African non-Boers, but I digress.

Let law enforcement crack some of these college demonstrator’s skulls. Start with the professors in their ivory towers. That’s the only way this BS stops

He basically surrendered after the shooting.

Meanwhile the police and FBI are congratulating themselves on what a great job they are doing.

They did nothing to prevent this, or stop it.

There definitely was an attempt to downplay certain threats, and to highlight others in the Wray era.

IMHO, just from the superficial information we have thus far, this shooter is an idiot.

My guess, people like him spin further and further out of control with their idiot feelings, based on their idiot friends, idiot filled venues (a protest for example), reading their idiot news, on their idiot censored and biased social media where they get all their news from in meme format.

Now the idiot should be euthanized or put behind bars, forever.

The fact that he's an idiot does not matter. There's a high price to pay when stupid.
