A panel on Fox Business Network ripped the FBI Friday over its refusal to release the manifesto of the alleged shooter who killed six people at a Nashville school.
“If this were a white national shooter, it would have been released, if it was a pro-life activist, it would have been released, if it was a Trump supporter, it would have been released immediately,” Pete Hegseth said. “People who’ve seen these documents, based on reporting say they are a dangerous and dark distillation of the motives of the shooter, which I’m sure the presumption that it would lead to a backlash of anti-trans hate which is what they said from the beginning. They somehow made the perpetrator in that group the victim from the beginning.”
Audrey Hale, a 28-year-old female shooter who identified as transgender, killed three children and three adults at Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, before being engaged and fatally wounded by law enforcement March 27.
“Six innocent people were murdered in cold blood by a trans killer,” Clay Travis of Outkick.com added. “They turn the story into a couple of local members of the state house legislature who were not in that legislature for a day or two, and they made them the victims as opposed to the people here.”
