Father of accused killer of Israeli diplomats is closely acquainted with Illinois Democrat

More about Papa Eric Rodriguez here and here.
[American Thinker] Once again, we see that there aren’t too many degrees of separation between deranged political (accused) killers and congressional Democrats. I wonder if that says anything about the modern party? Nah, they’re all just coincidences! Again...and again...and again....

Recall that Luigi Mangione’s grandfather was reportedly "a friend of the Pelosi family" and now, we learn that Elias Rodriguez’s dad is a close acquaintance of Chuy García, a very socialist "activist" lawmaker from the suburbs of Chicago with an affection for Saul Alinsky—in 2015, the Chicago Reader detailed García’s very close friendship with Lola Navarro, a "disciple" of Alinsky, and revealed that he had also been friends with Rudy Lozano, another Machiavellian left-wing "activist" of the day. Politico also ran an article praising García, noting that he belongs to the "reform-minded activist wing" of the Democrat party.

Anyway, here’s the story, from an article at the New York Post today:
