A far-left extremist group based in Brooklyn has marked the 117th anniversary of the assassination of a sitting U.S. president by posting a message on social media commemorating the killer.
“Anarchist Leon Czolgosz made history carrying out a famous attack on the US political establishment today in 1901. #IGD,” the anarchist group known as The Base tweeted.
