Trump has repeatedly blamed the media and what he calls “fake news” reporting for Saturday’s massacre. This is White House spokesperson Sarah Huckabee Sanders speaking Monday.

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders: “No, the president’s not placing blame.”

Jonathan Karl: “That’s what he did this morning.”

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders: “The president’s not—is not responsible for these acts. Again, the very first action that the president did was condemn these heinous acts. The very first thing that the media did was condemn the president and go after him, try to place blame—not just on the president, but everybody that works in this administration.”

Meanwhile, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway blamed “anti-religiosity” for political violence. She was speaking on “Fox & Friends” Monday.

Kellyanne Conway: “The anti-religiosity in this country, that is somehow in vogue and funny to make fun of anybody of faith, to constantly be making fun of people who express religion—the late-night comedians, the unfunny people on TV shows—it’s always anti-religious. And remember, these people were gunned down in their place of worship, as were the people in South Carolina several years ago.”

This comes as the man arrested for Saturday’s mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue appeared in court Monday. Robert Bowers faces 29 charges, including 11 counts of using a firearm to commit murder and two hate crimes. Saturday’s shooting has been described as the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in U.S. history.
