violence stalks every corner of the nation on any given day. in the last 28 hours in chicago at least 21 people were shot and seven died. last night four people were shot and one died in denver. five people shot in a park in louisville, kentucky. two are dead, four injured after a shooting in gary, indiana. in georgia a man shot and killed himself after killing his wife and daughter and injuring his granddaughter. it s a lot every weekend here that we cover on cnn about these mass shootings. let s go to our capitol hill unit, eva, it doesn t go as far as some gun safety advocates would like. but what do we know about the provisions in this agreement and how it would work. this is modest proposals but still could be quite consequential if the red flag law provision is adopted for instance, it would provide funding to help states create new red flag laws. this allows law enforcement to keep guns away from people found by a judge to pose a threat to themselves or others. but i
Undermine joe biden s victory. cnn chief legal analyst jeffrey toobin joins me now. jeffrey, great to see you. trump s mindset is key here how hard is it to prove what he was thinking. what do you make of the witness list we re seeing for tomorrow? it looks like a big day of reckoning for the big lie. what really jumps out at me about the witness list is they are all republicans or republican-affiliates because there s one former fox news journalist. and this, i think, continues a theme that the committee started in its first hearing, which is look, don t believe us democrats, believe the republicans. republicans are the ones, whether it was bill barr or ivanka trump, and here you have bill septian, bill ginsburg, probably the most experienced
Across the country. that s why the fbi we heard them say they have concerns, certainly this summer, over some of these groups and perhaps some of the violence we can expect. shimon prokupecz, we know you ll stay on top of it. thank you very much. coming up it s not just a problem here on earth. pollution is also becoming a problem in space. if we don t get ahead of it, it could change the night sky. those detailils next. you re live in the c cnn newsroom. didates, whose resumes onon indeed match your job criteria. visit indeed.com/hire and get started today. daddy, is that where we re from? well, actually, we re from a lot of places. see, we re from here, and the. give dad a gift worth sharing, at ancestry.com my name is monique, i m 41, and i m a federal contract investigator. as a single parent, i would run from football games to work

A democratic aide telling cnn the national instant criminal background check system would have to contact state and local law enforcement to search for any disqualifying mental health or juvenile records. it also includes federal investments in mental health as well as school security programs, jim. i think one of the things that stands out really almost above anything in this proposal is the fact this is such a bipartisan agreement. you have a number of republican senators who have signed onto this, it and makes it sound like, potentially, this could actually get through, which would be huge. hugely significant. we haven t seen this type of reform in several decades. but it doesn t include some provisions that gun reform advocates have been calling for for years. so more wide-spread background checks as well as a ban on these assault weapons, military style weapons we have seen in so many of the tragic mass shootings.
