Radical Democrats hate it when someone points out inconvenient patterns.
They’ll do anything to change the subject when the facts don’t fit their narrative.
And Ilhan Omar got caught red-handed after Sebastian Gorka dropped one truth bomb about transgender violence.
Sebastian Gorka exposes the pattern everyone’s afraid to discuss
White House official Sebastian Gorka appeared on CNN’s "State of the Union" and did something that sent Democrats into full panic mode.
He told the truth about transgender mass shooters.
And Ilhan Omar’s reaction proved she knows exactly what’s happening – she just doesn’t want anyone talking about it.
The Minneapolis Catholic school shooting left two students dead after gunman Robin Westman opened fire during Mass at Annunciation Catholic School.¹
Westman’s twisted manifesto included antisemitic and anti-Israel rhetoric, plus "kill Donald Trump" scrawled on one of the shooter’s gun magazines.
But here’s the detail that has Democrats scrambling to change the subject.
Westman confessed he was "tired of being trans" and made several references to his transgender identity throughout his manifesto.
Gorka connected the dots that everyone else is too scared to mention.
"In just a couple of years, we have seen seven mass shootings involving people of transgender nature or who are confused in their gender identity," Gorka stated. "That is inordinately high."²
He called it what it is – terrorism with an ideological motive.
"It’s not about the sexual proclivities of the individual. It’s the fact that nobody seems to notice a very disturbing pattern towards violence," Gorka explained.³
The numbers don’t lie, and that’s exactly why Omar had to step in with damage control.
Omar’s desperate attempt to shut down the conversation backfires
When Omar followed Gorka on the same CNN program, she immediately went into deflection mode.
"It’s really unfortunate that we have people, you know, like him, speaking on this," Omar told host Brianna Keilar.⁴
Notice how she didn’t dispute the facts – she just attacked Gorka for bringing them up.
"He talked about their transgenderness, and then he says that shouldn’t really matter," Omar continued. "These people are all over the place because they want to deflect from the reality," she continued, "which is that, there was, someone who came into that school, through the window, and assassinated two beautiful angels, as they prayed."⁵
Wait, who’s deflecting here?
Gorka laid out specific numbers about a disturbing trend, and Omar’s response was to call him names and demand he stop talking.
"This is not the moment to point fingers," Omar argued, before immediately pivoting to her standard talking points about banning assault weapons.⁶
Of course it’s not the moment to point fingers – not when those fingers might point toward sacred leftist ideology.
Look, here’s what’s really happening. Gorka spelled out a pattern that any honest person can see. The 2023 Nashville school shooting that killed six people, including three 9-year-old children? Transgender shooter. The 2022 Colorado Springs gay bar shooting that killed five? The gunman identifies as nonbinary. A 2019 Denver-area high school shooting? Transgender attacker. A 2018 shooting at a Maryland distribution center? Also transgender.⁷
Seven mass shootings by people struggling with gender identity issues in just a few years.
Seven mass shootings by people struggling with gender identity issues in just a few years.
That’s not random. That’s a pattern.
But Omar can’t let anyone discuss this pattern because it threatens the entire transgender movement that Democrats have staked their political future on.
Here’s what should make you furious. When asked directly if the shooter’s transgender identity should be investigated as a potential motive, Omar gave the most weaselly answer possible.
"I’ve always said it’s really important for us to look at every factor, so that we can understand what happened, what signs were missed and have the ability in the future to prevent these kinds of senseless deaths," she said.⁸
Translation: Yes, we should investigate it, but I’m going to attack anyone who actually does.
This is the same playbook they used when they buried the Nashville shooter’s manifesto for months because it didn’t fit their narrative. They’ll investigate everything except the one thing that might actually matter.
The pattern Gorka identified isn’t going away just because Omar wants to change the subject. Seven mass shootings by transgender individuals in a couple of years tells us something important about the mental health crisis surrounding gender identity issues.
But Democrats would rather let more children die than admit their radical gender ideology might be contributing to violence.
That’s not compassion – that’s political cowardice at its worst.
And Omar just proved she’s more interested in protecting her woke agenda than protecting American children.
