CNN Anchor Asks Trump Official About Anti-Trans Claims Amid Catholic School Shooting

Keilar refuted Gorka's claim by citing CNN data showing only 3 of 32 school shootings since 2020 involved transgender shooters, emphasizing 96% were non-transgender men.

  • Sebastian Gorka and CNN host Brianna Keilar debated mass shootings linked to transgender people during State of the Union on September 1, 2025.
  • Gorka claimed transgender shooters drive a surge, but Keilar cited the U.S. Secret Service report showing 96% of 172 attackers between 2016 and 2020 were non-trans.
  • Keilar highlighted that, according to CNN’s data, there have been 32 major school shootings since 2020 with fatalities of four or more, and only three of these incidents involved shooters who were transgender, challenging Gorka’s emphasis on the assailant’s gender identity.
  • Gorka claimed Keilar had a predetermined agenda and accused him of presenting false information live, while Keilar countered by rejecting Gorka's assertions, stating that his claims were based on inaccurate information.
  • The exchange highlights conflicting views on causes of mass shootings, with data disputing trans shooters as a major threat and underscoring the need for evidence-based policy.
