00:00I'm here to draw attention and to condemn another outrageous attack that was aimed at the Jewish community here in the United States, specifically Boulder, Colorado.
00:14Yesterday, a deranged individual took a homemade flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to attack individuals marching for the release of Israeli hostages held by terrorist group Hamas.
00:36This deranged individual allegedly yelled the words, Free Palestine.
00:44He yelled this during the attack.
00:48Reporting suggests that the individual may have overstayed his visa that the Biden administration gave him and was then in the country illegally.
01:01This is the third high-profile attack on the Jewish community in the last two months.
01:09This sort of hate is completely unacceptable in our society, and of course we all know it needs to stop.
01:20I commend FBI Director Patel for quickly responding and launching a full investigation into this targeted attack.
01:32I trust that the FBI and the law enforcement will do their job and swiftly find justice for these victims.
01:43I yield the floor and suggest the absence of a quarrel.
01:46We'll call the roll.
