The senseless massacre in New Zealand stirs a global debate about hate, racism and the internet. President Trump condemns the murders but draws criticism for what he didn't say, and for ignoring the facts when asked if he sees white nationalism as a rising threat.

Plus, the president ignores a mini-Republican revolt and issues his first veto - vowing broad and bipartisan opposition in Congress won't stop him from building a border wall.

And the historically diverse 2020 Democratic field keeps growing - Beto O'Rourke jumps in, and New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand makes it official and drops the "exploratory" label.

Today's panel: Julie Hirschfeld Davis with the New York Times, CNN's Manu Raju, Toluse Olorunnippa of the Washington Post, and Lisa Lerer of the New York Times. via Knit
