Scalding–hot takes abounded yesterday after a Somali student carried out a “car-and-knife” attack at Ohio State University. Today’s a new day, but the party’s still going strong:

Never mind that Abdul Razak Ali Artan railed against America and espoused Islamist rhetoric. Or that IS has claimed responsibility for the attack. What matters is that we point our fingers at Donald Trump and other people who had nothing to do with what happened.
Disgusting that this is your default reaction. #fakenews

you know what causes hate? Being attacked, stabbed and then being told the victim is the problem. #fakenews #disgrace

Never mind the students at OSU who were actual victims of REAL Somali Jihad hate.
