A coalition of radical left-wing groups, including organizations with ties to prominent Democratic figures and donors, has publicly endorsed Elias Rodriguez, the Chicago man who confessed to murdering two Israeli diplomats, Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky, outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C.
Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN) refused to comment Thursday when asked about what federal authorities are calling a terrorist attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C.
Yaron Lischinsky, a Christian staffer at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., was gunned down alongside his soon-to-be fiancée, Sarah Milgrim, during a pro-Israel event on Wednesday night. The shooter reportedly yelled “Free Palestine” before opening fire outside the Capital Jewish Museum. Authorities are investigating the murders as a targeted terrorist act driven by antisemitic hate.
