Summary
Today, we tackle the heartbreaking tragedy in Minneapolis where a transgender shooter unleashed chaos at a church, claiming innocent lives. Eric Eggers and Peter Schweitzer fill in for Sean and dive deep into the aftermath, pointing out how the left is quick to politicize such events to push their gun control agenda. They highlight the failure of leaders like Governor Tim Walz, who ignored requests for increased school security, prioritizing political narratives over the safety of our children. We also examine the role of mental health and the need for real solutions that protect our kids rather than just attacking our Second Amendment rights.

| 0:50.9 | about gun policy. |
| 0:53.5 | And, you know, there's a lot of details that the identity of the shooter has been elevated |
| 0:58.9 | and there's lots of other circumstances that I think are worth kind of noticing. |
| 1:03.6 | But it's part of the larger conversation about, you know, our tragedies like this preventable. |
| 1:08.6 | What we know now that Tim Walts, the governor of Minnesota, who by the way, when the left is decrying gun policy, remember Tim Walts was picked to be vice president last year by Kamala Harris in part because of his appeal to alleged gun owners and gun people that wanted to use those. |
| 1:25.4 | And we saw how poorly that went. |
