Actor and Uvalde native Matthew McConaughey makes an emotional plea at the White House for bipartisan action on guns, but some conservative Senate Republicans are publicly rejecting a provision that would incentivize states to enact red flag laws. Bill Avera is a Texas police chief who oversees a police force just like the Uvalde school district. As Texas officials remain silent, he tells Laura why he thinks there’s a delay in getting answers about the police response and accountability for the decisions made during the Robb Elementary School shooting.

Plus, the DHS issues a warning of heightened extremist domestic threats due to misinformation, potential violence around the SCOTUS abortion ruling and online forums encouraging Uvalde copycat attacks.
