The shooting took place late Wednesday outside the Capital Jewish Museum, which was hosting an American Jewish Committee event at the time of the incident.

US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem announced the deaths in an X post, saying, “We are actively investigating and working to get more information to share.”

The suspect, identified as 30-year-old Elias Rodriquez of Chicago, Illinois, "chanted 'Free, free Palestine,’ while in custody," she added.

I'm very conflicted on this. On the one hand, it is a good thing when genocide collaborators die, that's two less to worry about, but on the other, this could serve as a catalyst for further Zionist crackdowns on free speech.

The man who got shot had an active Twitter account. Very stand-up guy. Such a shame he got killed.

Won't find me weeping for an active defender of genocide being put in the cemetary.
