Name is on social media...clearly a MAGA hate crime. I wonder if the perp will be sent to El salvador tomorrow, or if Trump pardon's him and puts him in the cabinet.

They arrested a subject. No name yet.

I assume we can already consider this an act of terrorism> It's just a matter of whether it's purely domestic or a combination of domestic and foreign (e.g. foreign funded). Time will tell. He's Jewish and a candidate for being president one day. He is a threat to vision of extremists. The world has gone mad.

Considering the attack was on a Jewish governor and his family, I think we’re still talking about left wing derangement.

Considering he’s a Democrat who almost became Kamala’s VP pick and MAGA hate him, I think it’s RWNJs.

Time will tell presumably, but Trump did appoint Shapiro to the bipartisan Council of Governors just a few weeks ago. Given that, it’s hard to imagine some RWNJ getting all worked up now and setting fire to the governor’s house while he and his family slept, on Passover no less.

Folks on the left, on the other hand . . .

No, it's not at all hard to imagine. We've seen a lot of right wing extremists commit violent attacks including arson, incendiary and explosive devices. In July 2022 a right wing extremist torched a Planned Parenthood clinic in Kalamazoo. In 2021, clinics in Knoxville and Toledo were torched. In 2020 right wing Boogaloo Bois were found to have committed arson attacks in Minneapolis, Portland and elsewhere during the Floyd protests. There are also numerous recent instances of right wing extremists committing arson attacks on synagogues and mosques and other targets in recent years. For example, ballot drop boxes and so on.. You must not have access to comprehensive news sources if you find it so "hard to imagine."

Oh my God. Hours after Passover, and with children in the house? That’s an assassination attempt.

It is. Someone tried to kill the whole family.

I haven't seen this reported anywhere else yet.

It’s been on WTOP and other outlets.

Horrible. Also how did someone get so close to his home? He is Governor and I would think there is security everywhere!! Glad he and his family are okay!!

The fire started around 2AM while the governor and his family were IN THE HOUSE. Wouldn't this be attempted murder in addition to property damage?

PS. Let's not jump to conclusions about who did this, folks.

I think this is very disturbing.
