"My prayers are with the victims and their families during this very painful time. A shooting is devastating for families under any circumstances; to have two families endure this crisis on the eve of Thanksgiving is especially heartbreaking. "Early news reports indicate the Guardsmen may have been targeted. While we wait for further information, it appears the President’s unwarranted decision to deploy National Guard troops to DC unwittingly put these troops in danger. I again call on the President to end his needless deployment of troops in our cities and to personally apologize to the Guardsmen and their families." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
