House Speaker Mike Johnson slammed California Gov. Gavin Newsom for his "anti-Christian rhetoric" in the aftermath of the deadly shooting in Minnesota.
Johnson, speaking during his first press conference since lawmakers returned from an extended recess, noted that the Democrat governor had taken personal jabs at him in recent weeks and accused Newsom of "shamelessly" mocking the victims of the Annunciation Catholic School shooting, where two children were killed and 17 people injured during morning Mass.
The Louisiana Republican pointed to Newsom’s post on X in response to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, who condemned former White House press secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki’s comments criticizing the outpouring of "thoughts and prayers" and lack of focus on gun control.
Leavitt slammed Psaki's comments as "incredibly insensitive and disrespectful" to Americans of faith.
