former president donald trump was at the center of an attempted coup. plus, the president of uk ukraine pleads for a modern defense system as russia pummels the country. we are live with more. it is being called an important step in the right direction. a bipartisan group of u.s. senators say they have reached an agreement, in principle, on gun safety legislation. the deal includes more funding for things like mental health and school safety resources. a so-called red flag provision and enhanced review process for buyers under the age of 21, and penalties for so-called straw purchasing. the proposal has support from 10 republicans and would be critical to defeat a filibuster in the senate. if the deal becomes law, it would be the biggest gun reform legislation in decades, by far. that sneers, just 19 days after a gunman opened fire inside an elementary school involving in uvalde texas, killing 19 children and two teachers. listen to this. since that tragic day, there have
