in chattanooga, tennessee, sunday morning, two people were shot and killed and at least 14 others wounded near a downtown night club. i m tired of standing in front of you talking about guns and bodies as if there are families whose lives have been shattered forever because once again we had people deciding to resolve their issues with firearms. another shooting overnight at a bar, this one in mess a, arizona. that left two people dead and two more injured. saturday night, at least three people were killed and 11 others injured in a shooting in philadelphia. police say several gun men fired into a crowd there. we re absolutely devastated, devastated by this incident. and we mourn the lives lost and the dozens and dozens of lives affected by this tragedy. that s not all. a drive-by shooting at a graduation party in south carolina left one woman dead and eight people injured, including a child. police say they have recovered about 60 shell casings from the scene so fa
washington, president biden acknowledged his own power is limited. i can t outlaw a weapon. i can t change the background checks. i can t do that. the best hope of senate working group is diving in with a source telling nbc news that the group feels a new urgency. they have met twice in person, continued to text and e-mail and will meet again virtually tomorrow. but there maybe one key voice standing in the way. the top republican in the senate, mitch mcconnell. as one of our guests latest put it, he s behind a deade s long effort to block gun control. so what is really on the table? lths dive right in with white house correspondent carol lee, washington post bureau chief ashley parker is also senior political analyst. thanks to both of you. carol, you re one of the reporters who wrote a story with the headline inside a biden white house adrift and it points to the texas shooting as a horrific reminder the president has not successfully pushed congress to pass legisla
