The Justice Department is conducting a review into the Uvalde school shooting which left 19 pupils and two teachers dead. President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden have visited Texas to pay their respects at a makeshift memorial to the Robb Elementary School victims. There's been blistering criticism of the police response as the massacre unfolded and gun control legislation is again being hotly debated. Ron says former President, Donald Trump and other Republicans are on the defensive but also quite defiant at same time.
