At least two people have been killed in an attack at a U.K. synagogue
The attack took place outside a synagogue in Manchester. Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the attack "appalling" and "all the more horrific" for taking place on Yom Kippur, Judaism's holiest day.

Congressional Democrats need a bulletproof budget bill plan, and vests. I would help fundraise for bodyguards and bulletproof vests if that’s what Congressional Democrats need to stand up to the GOP thugs.
