i mean, this reminds me of right after sandy hook, when lawmakers on capitol hill were trying to come up with some kind of bipartisan background check bill and i remember those families coming up to the hill and meeting with senators, many of whom had already made their positions very public on where they stood. the hope is that a personal story, meeting with someone changes your world view, makes you take a step back from the political moment and make a different decision. i just don't think that that's what we've seen happen in the aftermath of some of these meetings. >> and jamie, one of our colleagues caught up with senator joe manchin, who is, in cases like this, the person that democrats should go to first if you're trying to get the votes of the caucus. and he was asked if this is the time at which there needs to be some filibuster reform. if not for voting rights, if not for some of the infrastructure bills, for this commission. he said, quote, that he is, quote, not ready to destroy our

violence . he has called on them to do so time and time again, but we know what's been happening on capitol hill, a house bill passed a background check bill, which faces a steep hill in the senate. so the white house has been in this situation where unfortunately time and time again, there have been these mass shootings, president biden has called on congress to do something. >> kaitlan, thank you. during the commercial break, i was trying to figure out what mass shooting this has been, and there were so many, so according

second, he was working for the american people every dog gone day. the president had a good win today on the trade deal with mexico and canada. i think it was good for the country. i'm glad pelosi did it too because it shows that the democrats aren't obsessed with just impeaching this guy. but he needs a lot more than that. i mean it. free advice, mr. president. join the gun bill. he said before he'd support a background check bill on guns. support it now. support the democrats on things that maybe child care, maybe roads and bridges. i mean he could actually get a lot of stuff done right now and maybe the trade deal begins to open it. maybe he'll watch this after his therapy session tonight in hershey and change his entire approach to the presidency. >> we'll see. thanks very much. appreciate it. coming up next, the attorney general's attack on the fbi. the inspector general's report, and as painful as it is to say, his attack on the truth itself. keeping 'em honest, next. i am all about living joyfully.

background check bill as well. >> do you think that can happen on the senate side? are you hearing that that could happen? >> we are going to continue -- we had a vigil earlier this week for the sandy hook victims just to remind the senate that this issue persists and that we're not going to rest until there's action. so it better happen, chris. my point is, yes, we have to hold the president accountable. we're doing that. that's not the only thing we're doing here. >> i guess one of the questions that's been raised is about walking and chewing gum at the same time, for lack of a better term, that impeachment is going to involve a lot of time, a lot of energy, certainly a lot of political energy. you mentioned some of the issues that are out there. there's also this little thing about the budget, about funding things. are you concerned about getting everything done. >> we're going to do everything we have to do on the house side. over 250 bills are bipartisan

reason i'm going to vote for you and not vote for you and you will get the action that you are demanding. it took 19 members of congress for us who are a rated by the nra, for us to support candidates to run against them. the 19 were replaced by people who understood that we just cannot continue to kill our young people and that we have to do something and that they are responsible. the gun safety champions that we helped elect flipped control from the house to the democrats and i'm happy to say that under nancy pelosi's leadership, one of the thing is the new house did was to pass a strong background check bill. unfortunately we have a president who bows down to the extremists who run the nra and cannot tolerate that. i believe we need a president who has a track record of taking on the nra and winning. you say why do i think i can do it? because i've done it. today i just want to touch on a

the background checks law that's already in place and requires that everyone who buys a gun be subject to it. i was at an event last night celebrating 25 years from the brady background check bill passed. all we want to do is make sure everyone is sunt to it. it wasn't helplessness. it was action with the leadership of lucy mcbath whose entire life is dedicated to honor the memory of her son jordan who was taken from her, from our world far too soon. there's real leadership that led to significant action. there's only helplessness is the helplessness that mitch mcconnell says he feels because the president won't allow him to bring up a bill. the senate needs to act on this. and there's so much more we can do. we can fund programs and communities to help address gun violence. we can have extreme protection orders. there's things that just -- they're not partisan. they're not partisan. and we need to just get them done.

puzzle that will hopefully be put together in the next hour or so when the sheriff and others address the media. >> andy, hold on for a second. we want to bring in connecticut senator chris murphy who's been at the forefront of the fight for gun control since the shooting in shoetown, connecticut, in 2012 -- newtown, connecticut, in twoi2012, sandy hook. what is your reaction? >> i was down on the senate floor coincidentally trying to offer a motion to bring up the background check bill for a vote in the senate at the very moment that news was breaking of this shooting. it is just another reminder of the cost of our total, complete inaction in the united states senate. when i got to my office, i had one of the sandy hook family members there, due to meet with me, who had to take a break, who couldn't sit down and have a conversation because he was obviously so emotional reliving

found a way to court, the supreme court is allowing the lawsuit to go forward. maybe the makers of these assault weapons are going to be finally held accountable in a court of law. >> if 90% of the american public supports a background check bill and that is not taken up in the senate, do you think that that alone along with the shootings we've seen, will be enough for the voters it to change the balance of power in the senate in 2020? >> i mean, you saw about 30 seats change hands from republicans that were a rated by the nra to democrats who are voting for things like background checks and assault weapons ban. that was a remarkable, very quick change in the composition of congress on matters related to gun policy. and i think that that trend is going to continue. i really think that republicans will lose control of the senate and will never get back into power in the house of representatives unless they start supporting these common sense interventions. i think that's why you see republicans starting to move.
