President Trump on Sunday expressed his condolences to the victims of a mass shooting at a church in Texas.

“May God be w/ the people of Sutherland Springs, Texas. The FBI & law enforcement are on the scene. I am monitoring the situation from Japan,” Trump tweeted shortly after reports of the incident.
