Friends say Minnesota shooting suspect was deeply religious and conservative

'Grounds for expulsion': GOP senator accused of 'mocking' the murder of two Dems
(Raw Story) U.S. Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT), an ally to President Donald Trump, is in hot water over a social media post. Lee on Sunday took to X and posted a photo of a man accused of posing as a police officer and shooting two Democratic lawmakers and their spouses.
