Robert \u201cRobin\u201d Westman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On Wednesday, Minneapolis was rocked by a horrific act of violence that left two innocent children dead and 17 others wounded inside Annunciation Catholic Church and School during morning Mass.<\/p>\n

The shooter, identified as 23-year-old Robert \u201cRobin\u201d Westman, a biological male who transitioned at age 17, opened fire on worshippers in what the FBI now confirms was a domestic terror attack.<\/p>\n

FBI Director Kash Patel previously announced that the FBI is investigating the shooting as domestic terrorism and a hate crime targeting Catholics.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

On Thursday, Patel announced that the investigators have gathered overwhelming evidence proving this was no random act of violence but a targeted attack fueled by leftist radical ideology and anti-religious hatred.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we continue to investigate yesterday\u2019s barbaric attack from Robert Westman, the male subject, our teams have gathered information and evidence demonstrating this was an act of domestic terrorism motivated by a hate-filled ideology,\u201d Patel wrote.<\/p>\n

According to Patel, the shooter left behind a manifesto filled with disturbing anti-Catholic and anti-religious screeds. Among the discoveries:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cSubject left multiple anti-Catholic, anti-religious references both in his manifesto and written on his firearms<\/p>\n

Subject expressed hatred and violence toward Jewish people, writing \u201cIsrael must fall,\u201d \u201cFree Palestine,\u201d and using explicit language related to the Holocaust<\/p>\n

He wrote a an explicit call for violence against President Trump on a firearm magazine\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThe FBI investigation is still ongoing. We will employ all of our counter-terror tools to ensure this is fully investigated and deterred. And as promised, we will continue to update when able,\u201d Patel added.<\/p>\n

In YouTube videos posted around the time of the attack, the shooter presented a journal and an arsenal of weapons with disturbing inscriptions<\/a> such as \u201cKill Donald Trump\u201d along with antisemitic, anti-Catholic, and racist slurs.<\/p>\n

The writings referenced past mass shooters (e.g., Adam Lanza, Anders Behring Breivik, Brenton Tarrant), depicted violent fantasies, and contained suicidal ideation.<\/p>\n

The Gateway Pundit<\/a> reported earlier that Westman confessed to regretting his transition and blaming the \u201cbrainwashing\u201d that convinced him he was a woman.<\/p>\n
