The morning after an apparent lone-wolf terrorist attack in Manhattan by a 29-year-old native of Uzbekistan, President Donald Trump sent a flurry of tweets that seemed to blame Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer for lax immigration policies. Schumer took to the Senate floor to fight back, calling on the president to rescind proposed cuts to anti-terrorism funding.
