... According to arrest documents, at 9.30pm on Saturday surveillance video appeared to show Mordechai Brafman, 27, getting out of his truck and opening fire with a semiautomatic handgun at a vehicle as it passed. Brafman allegedly fired 17 times, striking one victim in the left shoulder and grazing the other’s left forearm.
While in custody, Brafman spontaneously told detectives that while he was driving his truck, “he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both”, arrest documents said.
Law enforcement officials did not confirm if the victims were in fact Palestinians and the Miami Herald reported that they were actually two vacationing Israelis, naming them as Ari Rabey and his father.
Ironic Moron.
... The outlet reported that as of Monday afternoon, Brafman, the alleged shooter, was being held at the Miami-Dade correctional center on two counts of attempted second-degree murder.
Throw away the key.
Ironic victims. Deport the homicidal bigots. Great minds . . . I had not read down this far when I wrote the preceding:
The Council on American-Islamic Relations’ Florida chapter has called for federal hate crime charges in the shooting.
“It is deeply ironic and telling that both the alleged pro-Israel perpetrator and the pro-Israel victim in the Miami Beach shooting reportedly hold racist anti-Palestinian views,” said Cair’s national executive director, Nihad Awad, on X.
Yup.
“This just the latest example of the hate targeting the Palestinian-American community in this country and Palestinians in their homeland. Policymakers in our nation should stop fomenting the anti-Palestinian hate that led to the genocide in Gaza and to hate crimes in America.”
, but good luck with that. The Zionist lobby and their allies are very powerful here.
Lament the murder, not the murdered.

... Steube has previously been clowned for his efforts to rename U.S. coastal waterways after Trump while other GOP lawmakers have looked to kiss the president’s ring by rolling out proposals to rename D.C.’s airport after him, to add his face to Mount Rushmore or to put him on a $250 bill....

WMATA is not a vanity project for Donald Trump to steamroll. It’s the backbone of our nation’s capital. When will House Republicans stop trying to suck up to Donald Trump and start focusing on lowering the cost of living?

Republicans are laser-focused on the issues that matter to Americans:
Kicking Americans off their healthcare
Taking food away from American families
Renaming the DC metro after their dear leader
Virtually everyone I know who visits DC, regardless of who they are, agrees that WMATA is the best metro system in the country. Kick rocks, buddy.
You could not be more wrong. WMATA is the best run transit system in the US and has just been getting better & more efficient for years. Leave our beautiful metro out of your culture war bullshit.
I didn't think it was possible, but you've managed to do something even dumber than renaming water.

The extent to which MAGA politicians are willing to debase themselves to fluff Trump's ego is truly astounding. Kim Jong Un would be jealous.
