Rosie O'Donnell wrongly identified the Minnesota school shooter as a MAGA supporter. She initially claimed on TikTok that the 23-year-old shooter, Robin Westman, was a MAGA Republican, linking the shooting to the political right. This claim was met with backlash, leading O'Donnell to issue multiple apologies on social media, admitting she hadn't thoroughly researched the facts before making her statement. Westman, who held anti-Trump views and expressed hatred towards various groups, killed two children and injured eighteen others before taking their own life.
