FBI Confirms Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting Was Domestic Terrorism

FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed on Thursday that the tragic shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis which left two children dead and 17 others injured was an act of domestic terrorism fueled by anti-Christian and antisemitic hatred, marking one of the most ideologically driven school attacks in recent U.S. history.

Patel stated that 23-year-old Robin Westman, the biological male who identified as transgender, left behind a manifesto, disturbing video recordings, and explicit writings filled with anti-Catholic, anti-Jewish, and anti-Trump rhetoric.

“Subject left multiple anti-Catholic, anti-religious references both in his manifesto and written on his firearms,” Patel wrote on X. “Subject expressed hatred and violence toward Jewish people… and wrote an explicit call for violence against President Trump on a firearm magazine.”

Here’s what investigators have confirmed so far:

• Westman’s weapons and journals featured phrases like “Where is your God?” and “6 million wasn’t enough” a grotesque reference to the Holocaust.

• The shooter wrote that he was “tired of being trans,” and admitted, “I wish I never brain-washed myself.”

• FBI has classified the attack as both a hate crime against Catholics and an act of domestic terrorism.

This wasn’t just a random act of violence it was a premeditated assault on faith, children, and American values.

Westman’s manifesto reportedly included vile antisemitic language, including slurs and explicit threats like. “If I will carry out a racially motivated attack, it would be most likely against filthy Zionist Jews.”

And yet, legacy media outlets and progressive politicians remain largely silent on the shooter’s identity, motives, and ideology just like they were after the 2023 shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville, where another trans-identifying shooter targeted a Christian elementary school, murdering three children and three adults.

Instead of focusing on the victims, Left-wing commentators and even elected officials have rushed to lecture Americans about “gun control” and dismiss the role of prayer. California Governor Gavin Newsom and MSNBC host Jen Psaki both chose to mock those offering thoughts and prayers to grieving families.

Meanwhile, the FBI is treating this as a full-scale counter-terror investigation.

“We will employ all of our counter-terror tools to ensure this is fully investigated and deterred,” Patel said.

That’s what should be happening. What shouldn’t be happening is the media blackout around the shooter’s transgender identity and hate-fueled ideology. If this were a MAGA-supporting white male with a “Christian nationalist” manifesto, the press would already be calling it an “insurrectionist terror cell.”

But because the killer was trans, filled with anti-Catholic and anti-Jewish hatred, and spewing rage against President Trump, the narrative gets buried or outright ignored.

Let’s be clear: this was a hate crime, a religious targeting, and a terrorist attack. And it demands national attention, not political spin.
