8/27/25 - Mental Illness and Violence: A Deep Dive into the Minneapolis Shooting

On Wednesday’s Mark Levin Show, the gunman responsible for the shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis has been identified as transgender Robin Westman. Westman opened fire through the stained-glass windows during a celebratory mass, killing two children and injuring 17 others, including 14 kids. A manifesto reveals his psychotic obsession with mass shooters and includes anti-Semitic statements about "filthy Zionist Jews."  It’s sickening that people will inject their politics into this event. Evil and sick individuals will commit harmful acts regardless of circumstances. Former prosecutors and left-wing mayors blame society or weapons, but that blame leads nowhere.  What’s happening is the attack on faith. Faith is pushed out of the classroom and the public square. For a mayor to say don’t talk about prayer, he’s missing the point. Faith has turned a lot of people around; there can never be enough prayer. Also, Lt Gov Winsome Earle-Sears calls in to discuss her race for Virginia Governor. She highlighting her statewide election experience and the Republican administration's successes—like low taxes, returning $9 billion to taxpayers, and reducing regulations—she pledged to eliminate the car tax, end sanctuary cities, deport illegal criminals, support police, and promote liberty over forced unionization.  Her opponent Abigail Spanberger is a proud progressive who supports open borders, sanctuary policies, defunding police, and radical measures. Later, Sen Chuck Schumer and Democrats are blocking President Trump's nominees, confirming only 135 out of over 1,000 senior-level appointments through dilatory tactics. Republicans are eyeing rule changes or recess appointments, because this defies voters' mandate.
