Raskin acts clueless when pressed on Democrats' anti-Trump rhetoric following WHCD shooting

"I talk about the policies of this administration, the authoritarianism," Raskin said. "I don't personalize it."

During the interview, Raskin also defended the role of the press and criticized what he described as past attacks on media institutions.

"I hope that this investigation is done with complete openness and transparency," Raskin said.

"I had just come in the room a few minutes before," Raskin said. "Suddenly there's loud booms, crashing sounds, plates, silverware, everything flying all over the place."

Raskin said he immediately thought about Kennedy's family history after the assassinations of her father, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, and uncle, President John F. Kennedy.

Blanche said Sunday that the alleged shooter was refusing to help investigators. He also said authorities believe the suspect traveled from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., by train and that additional charges and details were expected after formal filings.

"From what we've learned in our preliminary investigation, he's not actively cooperating," Blanche said.

Federal authorities have not yet released a full motive as of Sunday morning.
