California Governor Gavin Newsom is catching heat after appearing to mock calls for prayer following the tragic school shooting in Minnesota. The Guv's social media post, hinting at the children being shot while praying, has sparked major backlash. Alabama Governor Kay Ivey didn't mince words, calling Newsom's comments "evil" and firmly stating, "Prayer works, Governor." She emphasized the faith of the victims and their families, stressing their need for prayers during this difficult time. Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki piled on, declaring that "Prayer is not freaking enough." Her comments echo a sentiment that prayer alone isn't sufficient to address the ongoing problem of school shootings. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) didn't hold back either, labeling Newsom "ridiculous" and accusing both Newsom and Psaki of attacking religion during a time of tragedy. Even former Trump White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt chimed in, calling Psaki's remarks "incredibly insensitive and disrespectful" to people of faith.
