As you know, there’s horrible news out of Pittsburgh where a man is in custody after killing several people and wounding many others, including police officers, at a synagogue.
Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas attempted to push some of the blame in a predictable direction:
Yup. “Nationalism” and “globalism” are all code words for antisemitism. https://t.co/EPXYajZibv

Little is known about the shooter at this point but that’s obviously not stopping the blame machine from doing its thing.
That's the stupidest thing I've read all morning. Of course the day is young.

Didn't Farrakhan just refer himself as being "anti-termite, not anti-Semite?" Just last week?? pic.twitter.com/ggZsNWad6Y

If the killer this morning murdered ppl in Israel and claimed he supported Palestinian "liberation" your side would be calling him a freedom fighter. Don't pretend now you guys have condemned anti-Semitism https://t.co/bbYRXKD1uY

It’s worth noting that Trump’s son-in-law is Jewish and the president’s daughter, Ivanka, converted.
