Derrick Van Orden: “It's been reported that two Israeli diplomats were shot…”

“… and that the violent political rhetoric that has been delivered over the last 48 to 72 hours by my Democrat colleagues have affected Americans across this country and the globe. It's been reported that two Israeli diplomats were shot leaving an event at the Jewish museum in Washington, D.C. by someone that yelled, free, Free Palestine.
