Ep. 67 | Minneapolis Shooting Exposes Media Bias: Trans Shooter, Failed Gun Laws, and Christian Attacks


Listen Later

Meseidy and Rachel dive deep into the tragic Minneapolis school shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church that left 2 children dead and 17 injured. While the mainstream media tiptoes around the facts, we're giving you ALL the details they don't want you to know about. From the shooter's transgender identity and manifesto filled with trans regret, to the buried 2018 mental health welfare check that nobody's reporting on - we've got the receipts.

Plus, we're calling out the disgusting attacks on Christians and people of faith by politicians like Minneapolis Mayor Frey and Jen Psaki, who are more concerned with shaming "thoughts and prayers" than addressing the real issues. You'll also hear about Minnesota's strict gun laws that didn't prevent this tragedy, and how Tim Walz denied funding requests to harden religious schools just two years ago.

This episode will red-pill you on just how far the media will go to protect their narrative. Heaven forbid you notice the patterns.

Episode Highlights
  • The Shooter's Trans Identity & Regret - New York Post obtained translated journals revealing the 23-year-old shooter expressed "trans regret," writing "I'm tired of being trans, I wish I never brainwashed myself."
  • Buried 2018 Mental Health Check - Scripps News FOIA revealed police conducted a mental health welfare check on the shooter in 2018 when he was just 15 - something no other outlet is reporting.
  • Politicians Attack Christians for Praying - Minneapolis Mayor Frey and Jen Psaki launched disgusting attacks on "thoughts and prayers," essentially telling grieving Catholic families to shut up about their faith.
  • Minnesota's Gun Laws Didn't Work - Despite having background checks, red flag laws, and strict storage requirements, none of Minnesota's Democrat-backed policies prevented this tragedy.
  • Walz Denied School Security Funding - Two years ago, religious schools begged Tim Walz for security funding after Nashville, but were denied while Minnesota became a "trans refuge state."
