“Yeah, it’s actually quite extraordinary. I want you to know that my team reached out to Sen. Chuck Schumer’s office, uh, to check on what he may know about who shot Ashli Babbitt. We have not heard back from Chuck Schumer’s office. We did send a note and called. What do you think? Do you know Mr. President?” – Fox News host Maria Bartiromo, in a phone interview with Trump today.

Maria Bartiromo not only blamed the Democrats for Ashli Babbitt’s death but a Jewish Democrat at that, doubling down in anti Semitic rhetoric promulgated by conspiracy theory Republicans! https://t.co/3c7Udh5XWv

I’ve been reporting on the meaning of Ashli Babbitt to the far right for a few months now. Trump’s interview with Maria Bartiromo about the shooting this morning was a big escalation of the story’s weaponization.
