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.

Adventurism sets back this movement of ours. This is what a revolutionary spirit without theory to back it up does. ADL is already using this as casus belli to silence pro-Palestine voices. CIA and Mossad are popping champagne bottles as we speak. And all they lost were two ultimately expendable Zionist bureaucrats. This is a fucking disaster.
