miss allen over there isn't checking lesson plans. she's getting graded on her green investments with merrill. a-plus. still got it. (whistle blows) your money never stops working for you with merrill, a bank of america company. ♪ ♪ your money never stops working for you with merrill, aleve x. its revolutionary rollerball design delivers fast, powerful, long-lasting pain relief. aleve it, and see what's possible. good to be with you. i'm katy tur. another hard ta in uvalde. the first of 21 funerals will start tomorrow. 21 funerals because a deranged

psychopath, which is what senator cruz called him, was able to legally buy an assault rifle more than 1600 rounds of ammunition, and then walk freely into an elementary school because he wanted to kill kids. there are two small funeral homes not enough to handle a massacre. that means funeral directors, morticians and volunteers from across texas are now there to help. among them are facial reconstructionists, because, yes, it was that bad. and making it even worse, just how long the cops waited to go in. they waited an hour outside that classroom before they finally confronted the gunman. more than an hour while some of those kids were still fighting for their lives. including the daughter of one family who spoke with state senator roland gutierrez.

>> their little girl had been shot in the back with one bullet. through the kidney area, she likely bled out, according to the first responder. who should know what would have happened had officers showed up timely? had they gone in timely. >> the dallas morning news pribted the timeline of what happened on its front page over the weekend. the headline was "please send the police now." which is what a young girl inside one of the classrooms begged a 911 operator. the timeline starts a at 11:30 when a teacher calls 911 and reports a car crash and a man with a gun. then it goes through minute by minute detail when he begins shooting, how many rounds, the multiple 911 calls from inside classrooms, five calls alone from one little girl. it details when the police showed up. 11: 3 and when they finally went

into the classroom and killed the shooter at 12:50. it also shows that the shooter was still shooting as late as 12:36 while the police were outside the door waiting. at the request of uvalde's mayor, the justice department say it is will review what the police did and did not do and back from his visit from uvalde on sunday, president biden said it makes no sense for anyone to purchase a weapon that can fire 300 rounds. but he admitted there's only so much that he can do alone. >> i can do the things i have done and executive action i will continue to take. i can't outlaw a weapon. i can't change the background checks. i can't do that. >> we're going to talk about those legislative efforts later this hour, but we begin in uvalde, where there are still

victims being treated in local hospitals. joining me now is sam brock and liz mclaughlin. also is julie ainsly and in washington is josh letterman. sam, i want to begin with you. tell me what it's like there today for anyone who may be intentionally turned over the news over the weekend. >> you can just picture right now people at home shaking their heads as you're reading through that tiktok timeline of what happened. it's a combination right now of the deepest levels of grief and utter infuruation at the response from law enforcement and the state of affair when is it comes to accessing firearms. a few minutes ago i was in a grocery store where they are handing out candles. they are trying to shine a light on what's happening. tell me if this makes sense. the city police department, that agency here for the city

government, the city council, the chief of police for the school district, who was allegedly the person who made the decision to reclassify to barricade situation. none of them have said a word in about five days. noo one has heard a peep. i saw a campaign flier for city council sitting on the ground right near the school. he's theoretically supposed to be sworn in tomorrow, but no one has heard from him or seen from him since last tuesday in the hours after the massacre. people are demanding answers specifically when it comes to law enforcement standing as you outlined in the hallways or outside of the school for more than an hour. they first entered at 11:35. the gunshots were off at 11:33. 12:50 is when the gunman was killed. i spoke to a gentleman who lived a half mile away from the school. here's what he had to say. >> our uvalde police department let us down. a lot of our children got shot because of their incompetence.

you took an oath to protect and serve. did they forget about that something? this crazy madman slaughtered our children while police were outside. >> reporter: in the wake of tragedies like parkland and santa fe, the commission on law enforcement updated its guidance for active shooter situations with a clear priority of life. number one, innocent civilians, number two, first responders, and the language could not be more clear. it says if you're not willing to sacrifice your life for innocent, maybe as a first responder, you should be considering a career choice, which is not to say necessarily that's the situation now. but this community, all of the mourning going on, why did the law enforcement presence not act more forcefully when it had a an opportunity to save lives. what went wrong here. this goes to the core of the

incident report and review with the justice department. >> also we see the parents being physically held back by the police officers. another big question why did they do that? why did they tell them it was under control, when the guy was still shooting. there are still victims of this shooting in the hospital. what do we know about them and what their condition is? >> reporter: when the shooting happened, about 15 were sent to a local hospital here. uvalde memorial, and then four were sent to san antonio for higher care. one has been released. one a 66-year-old believed to be the grandmother of the shooter, the first victim of the shooting, shot in the face. she is in the hospital still, but was in serious condition. now in fair condition. so that's good news. there's one 10-year-old girl in good condition there. one 9-year-old in good condition, but a 10-year-old is in serious condition. so they are very much still

fighting for life here. there could be more casualties on the way. we're just waiting to hear. >> what about the news conference we watched over with the governor on the stage in the theater with all the law enforcement around him and all the city officials. they were patting each other on the back saying law enforcement did a good job here. so many more lives could have been lost if it wasn't for the actions of those officers at the school that day. what are they saying now? >> reporter: it seems like it's an utter contradiction now when you look a at the fact that the response that governor abbott received after those remarks was nothing but scorn because people can't comprehend the context for making remarks and why the stance is that the gun lobby gets to control what poliies in

this country as kids are dying in schools. this just does not jive for 90% of the american population. so as you talked about, the governor making comments about how it could have been worse. please tell that to the family members of the kids whose 19 crosses are over my shoulder who said this is a scar they are going to wear on their hearts not for days or weeks or months, for years. go fwok newtown. how are those families doing. with the tragedy they had to absorb ten years ago, they are not over that. no one impacted by gun violence like this is ever going to fully recover. so for someone who is in elected office to make comments like that that is so tone deaf to the pain that communities are feeling right now is hard to comprehend. the only thing i can come back with is the american population continues to vote lawmakers into office who have that perspective. until that changes, we're going to be continuing to see this happen over and over again. >> i was so struck by it could

have been so much wose as if 19 kids dead and 2 teachers dead wasn't awful to begin with. and how it seemed callous to say it could have been worse when it was already so bad. the justice department is reviewing. what does that mean? what happens at theened of their review if it they find that they did not act a as they should have? >> that's right. it will be a critical incident review. it might be best to temper our expectations in terms of that review. it was done. it's been launched at the request of the may your after this national outrage that sam has so eloquently pointed out. this has really risen to the level that federal government does need to get involved to do an independent review of what happened during those critical minutes. but what might happen here is it's not likely to go to more than a report. it would outline practices that should have been follow, best

practices should they want to improve, better training, who made what call when, we're hoping it will get into a level of detail with answers. but criminal referrals could be a ways off unless they find neglect or infringement upon the civil rights of people inside here, which could be. but more likely, it's not going to be akin to what we have seen in the past. there's a use of force by a police department that's deemed excessive or thal might refer the entire police department to come under the you of an independent monitor. that's done differently. that's through a civil rights investigation. this would be done a at a different level and would probably just result in a report. but there's so many questions here. they do have a lot of per view to get in and interview people. one thing they may be asking their federal partners is what those customs and border protection officers were told. we understand that they arrived at the school 30 minutes before

they finally went in because they were told by locals not to go in. these are people trained much like the special forces. why would you not allow that level of personnel to go in? these are the questions we hope they will be answering, but as far as criminal referrals, a lot of people might be pleading for that. it might not happen through the process like this. >> it says a lot there are people who swore a duty to protect who weren't willing to go in because the guy had an ar-15 weapon shooting multiple rounds. it's reasonable for someone to be scared for their own life. what does it say about the ability to stop a bad guy with a gun when the good guys aren't going in for over an hour? josh, the president was there over the weekend. he laid a wreath alongside the first ldy. he gave a few remarks. today, though, or yesterday coming back from uvalde, he told

reporters there's in all reality only so much he can do as the executive. what is he doing behind the scenes to try to push lawmakers on capitol hill? senator murphy says he feels somewhat optimistic about something. what is the white house doing right now? >> what the white house thinks that president biden can do all on his own, he's already done for the most part. including that executive order he signed last month cracking down on ghost guns. officials believe if anything serious is going to happen, it has to be in congress. now president biden so far since the shooting in uvalde has kept a pretty hands-off approach to the discussions on the hill. in part because he wanted to focus on consoling the families on the ground there. in part because officials want to give running room to law makers to figure out what compromise might be doable without putting more pressure on it publicly from the white house. we do expect that this week president biden will start to get more involved in sensing

what republicans might be willing to do and whether there's some way he can be a force to help that actually come about before the momentum from this shooting starts to fade. but the big question everyone is going to be watching this week is president biden going to sort of offer platitudes about this? is he going to say i'm calling on congress to do something and leave it there? or is he going to do what a president does when he flies around the country, maybe to communities hit hard by gun violence in the past and build support for a piece of legislation to campaign for something the way he would if this were a central priority. that's something that gun violence advocates are watching to see whether president biden will put that kind of political muscle into this effort this coming week. >> 19 kids dead. 2 teachers. josh letterman, thank you. thank you all. appreciate it. still ahead, will this time

be different? we were just talking about this. what senator murphy says he's optimistic about on gun legislation. we'll get the detail there is. and the military equipment joe biden said he will not send ukrainian forces and why. also pack your patience. despite rising prices, lots of us are still traveling this weekend and this summer, which means expect a mess on the roads and at the airport. and at the airport g his youngest down the aisle, which to his bladder, feels like a mile. yet he stands strong, dry, keeping the leaks only to his eyes. depend. the only thing stronger than us, is you. ♪ limu emu ♪ and doug. ♪ harp plays ♪ only two things are forever: love and liberty mutual customizing your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need.

it's nearly been a week since the school shooting and two weeks since the buffalo supermarket shooting. despite away senator murphy says about serious bipartisan talks on gun reform, americans have heard widely contrasting opinions from lawmakers on both sides about the path forward. senior capitol hill correspondent garrett haake has more.

sfwlr this morning a renewed push for stricter federal gun laws. >> i can tell you i sense a different feeling among by colleagues. it is time for us to do something. america is sick and tired of political excuses. >> reporter: senator chris murphy leading bipartisan talks to try to find a path forward. >> it's inconceivable we have not passed significant federal legislation trying to address the tragedy of gun violence in this nation. since sandy hook we have seen worst slaughter. >> reporter: some of the proposals being discussed, red flag laws, which allow police to seek court orders to take gun was from people who may pose threats, strengthing background chex, more money for school security and increasing mental health resources. >> it's a package that really in the end could have a significant downward pressure on gun violence and break the law. that's the most important thing we could do is show that progress is possible.

>> reporter: but texas republican congressman dan crenshaw says a lot of gun proposals are misguided. >> they infringe on rights of gun owners. they probably wouldn't have the outcome you're hoping for. >> reporter: that sentiment echoed at the nra convention in houston over the weekend. >> in the wake of these tragedies, the various gun-control policies being pushed by the left would have done nothing to prevent the horror that took police. absolutely nothing. >> reporter: but in a visit yes, john voight a long-time republican, says there needs to be new qualifications to buy guns. >> we must identify every individual for their credentials, for their mental capacity to bear arms. there should be proper qualifications for gun ownership and proper testing. one should only own a gun if they are qualified and schooled. >> that was garrett haake rt reporting. joining me is peter baker and

also jake sherman. so jake, you just heard dick durbin say a moment ago he feels like now is different. chris murphy has said the same. is it different? >> i happen to line up with poet of them. i'm not sure why. i feel as if we have got ton a point where more republicans are in the room. more republicans are expressing openness about these talks. i will say peter will remember this, but back in the obama administration, obama tried to go out and build public support by going to districts and trying to essentially shame republicans into supporting some gun control legislation. thatten didn't work. i don't think that biden is going to have a big role here. i know you talked about that in your previousing isment. it seems as if the white house according to the democrats i

have spoken to would be wise to step away as they have done so far and allow talks to kind of take place without external involvement. but i think they have gone pretty modest at the outset. red flag laws, and background check system. i think those things would -- if they happen speedily, if talks progress over the next week, they really could garner widespread support. it just has the makings for that right now at the moment. >> i want to ask about an open door for legislation down the line. but i want to catch on to one point you made a moment ago ab the white house taking a backseat. here's what president biden said about whether he's had any conversations with republicans about gun legislation. >> i've not been in the

negotiating room with the republicans yet. i deliberately did not engage in a debate about that with any republicans when we were down consoling the families in texas. i know that makes no sense to something that can underground. but the constitution. i can do the things i have done and any executive action i will continue to take, but i can't outlaw a weapon. i can't change the background checks. i can't do that. >> so peter s this what jake was talking about? the learning from experience in what happened after sandy hook that maybe the best way to do things is to let the senators work this out themselves? >> there are certainly moments when a president realizes that his presence in these negotiations would only hurt

rather than help. sometimes it helps to see lawmakers take things in their own hands and figure out their own dynamics and own compromises. i'm not as optimistic as jake there's going to be change here. we have heard this story before. we heard it after sandy hook and parkland. we heard it after el pa so and orlando and any number of incidents in which there seemed to be momentum ask then it fizzles out. we are incredibly short-term and something ls will could along. they are going to have a bipartisan deal on some sort of legislation following george floyd. there's no bipartisan deal. the bipartisan deal on the electoral count act. there's an agreement thatten wasn't very helpful on the day of january 6th. there's so little room in washington right now for room on of great emotional power to the

base like guns and gun rights. that i think all the pressure mounts against this despite whatever optimism there might be be at the moment. >> your colleague at "the new york times" had an article about why republicans don't get on board for this sortover thing. it boils down to 10% of the country. this hard core republican voters who will vote a lawmaker out of office for voting on any sort of gun legislation. ask that these republican lawmakers feel beholden to them. then it make mess think of what steve kerr said, the coach of the golden state warriors, back after this happened he got angry at the podium and said the reason the 50 republican senators won't vote is they want to hang on to power. it strikes me as here's the perfect example of that. >> we hold on to power is another way of zrveing your constituents. >> but it's not the majority of

the constituents. it's the ones that do reiably go out and vote. >> obviously, you have seen the two parties in which democrats represent districts that are strongly for gun control. but republicans represent district where is they are not. they are ept aring the constituents, particularly the one who is are more likely to vote in those states and districts. they haven't been punished for imposing gun control. those who went along with it have felt the sting of a backlash from their base they are reacting to the public that they serve around them and not to the broader national audience, which polls show does support gun control, but to the specific district and state thas represent. >> it's so interesting. i was reading an article today with a gentleman named richard small, who was a man from texas with an ar-15. he said any time you'd asked

whether he think there should be gun control in the past or give up az ar-15, he would say no way. no way but he said he saw a picture of oneover the little boys that got killed last week and he said it looked like his grandson. and he said something in him snapped and he handed over the weapon. he was done with his ar-15. and i wonder is that so cynical to think that's what it's going to take that they have to see somebody they know or love be the victim of this to want to see things get amended? >> joe manchin got criticized for this ask. he said after this shooting, he can't get his grandchildren out of his head. and the fact that they are in school and they are at risk of gun violence. i agree with everything peter just said. for the record, i think that if

you're betting on this, if you're making a wager on whether this would happen, you have to wager no because that's the obvious answer. but here's what i would say. there are four or five republicans in that room right now, so there are four or five people going to presumably be involved in a deal coming together. there are two republicans who are not running for reelection. then there's just some people along the edges who have surprised me in how they talk about the need or their interest in gun control. and this is very modest. the red flag system, which is grants to states, so to encourage them to start red flag laws, so it's not talking about an assault weapons ban or banning high capacity magazines. they are talking about something very modest at this point. and that's the only reason why and you know me to be a very big

skeptic so that's the only reason i'm more optimistic this time around. >> thank you both for being with us today on this holiday as evidenced by your facial hair. thank you so much. i appreciate it. coing up, the johnny depp and amber heard trial is in the hands of the jury. wooir going to have a round up for those who have not been paying teengs this on what exactly is going on. also, russia intensifies its offensive in ukraine. what ukrainian forces are doing to slow them down in the donbas. g stolow them down in the donbas. miss allen over there isn't checking lesson plans. she's getting graded on her green investments with merrill. a-plus. still got it.

similar ones in donbas to free ukrainians from nazi rule. but thr no nazis here. the local mayor says that's an excuse for a land grab russian forces bombed the train station now nothing moves. russia is trying to steal this rich agricultural area by squeezing ukrainians out. russia has bombed out power and running water. ukrainians remaining in the village about half the population survived by cooking on open fires. the village school is no more. this 11-year-old used to go to clss here until the russians dropped a bomb about a week ago. >> what do your parents tell you about why this is happening? >> reporter: his favorite subject was health and fitness. he knows something a about it. he suffers from anemia, but there's no medicine for him now.

the hospital and pharmacies are all closed. without his pills, he sometimes feels weak and nauseous. while we spoke, he had one of those nauseous moments becoming more frequent. >> is that your stomach? >> reporter: his friends have mostly all gone. at home he's with his mother and brother in their apartment well kept despite it all. his mother doesn't understand why russia which is such is a big country needs more land. >> reporter: his family also have a small garden on the edge of the village. he has planted most of the vegetable patch himself, but some days the gardening is difficult when he's feeling weak. thankfully the dill grows quickly. and today there are some radishes too. the food helps them resist and hang on. they don't want to leave.

as tough as it is now, this will always be their home. >> so much suffering all over the world. that was richard engel. joining me is the former ambassador to russia and msnbc international affairs analyst. also hah lean cooper, an msnbc political contributor. i want to talk about something the president said about long-range missiles and not wanting to arm them with missiles that can reach russia. can you sort that out for me? >> hi, katy, thank you for having me. it's this tortuous thing that this mags has wrapped itself in since the start of the war, this idea of the defense and offensive weaponry. this is the reason why they

didn't get behind the idea of giving migs to ukrainians buzz of what one defense official described it to me at the time a mig could get to moscow in 18 minutes or something. and they don't like the idea of anything that could actually reach deep into russian territory. but that whole straight jacket that the administration had been putting itself in had been loosening up as the weeks have gone on and i think we can expect to continue to see it loosening, but this is something they say as part of their effort to, as they say, not provoke vladimir putin into escalating the war further. whether or not you could make the argument that he's escalated this pretty high to begin with. so the administration had for the last few months been

loosening up its definition of what would be escalatory. that's a constant discussion within the biden administration that is a questions that on the minds of white house officials of what will provoke putin into using other methods or chemical weapons, doing something else. he hasn't done that yet. so this is kind of one of those self-imposed straight jackets the administration puts itself in. >> you had a reaction to this news you tweeted it. i want you to expand. some want to increase arms as it means to hasten a diplomatic solution. not arming ukraine prolongs the war. >> yes, that's the logic. and you're exactly right, they have had a very tortured debate from officials in the biden administration. i think there's a way to resolve it, by the way. you just sign an agreement with

president zelenskyy. he has a lot of authority and legitimacy. sign a formal agreement saying we will not use these weapons in rush y. that's a better solution than sitting and in washington and trying to modulate and calculate exactly what we want ukrainians to do on the battlefield. and number two, this threat of escalation, we have been talking about this for over three months. we keep hearing that we do this, we do that, we do this or that, president putin is going to escalate. and yet what is the evidence about? if the escalation is going to take place inside ukraine, shouldn't we trust the ukrainians to know their security interest better than we do? >> you sound frustrated. >> i just think it's a losing strategy. there will only be an end to this war in throw different stet naur owes, one, putin conquers all of ukraine.

two, ukraine pushes russia out of ukraine. or three, there's a stalemate on the battlefield. to me, option two and option three are the ones that we should be supporting and the way you do that is to give the ukraines they need to achieve one of those two outcomes. >> ambassador, thank you very much for being with us. i appreciate it. coming up, what is behind a string of sudden flight cancellation this is memorial day weekend. and what is it port trend for the summer? first, what to expect as a jury begins deliberations in the johnny depp and amber heard trial. trial.

one, more than 39 million people are traveling more than 50 miles at least, according to aaa. and nearly 7 million are flying according to the tsa. or at least that's what they want to be doing. staffing shortages and high demands mean a lot of flights have been canceled. consider this, it's only 2:52 in the afternoon. also consider that it could be an omen for what to expect this summer. joining us from newark international airport is emily. why all of the cancellations, why all the shortages? >> reporter: for a number of reasons, and largely because airlines are reeling from the pandemic. we've been seeing the number of flight cancellations and delays tick up, exceeding more than 400 flight cancellations in the u.s. today. but believe it or not, passengers are faring a little better today than they did earlier over the memorial day weekend, when airlines had to

contend with bad weather and then those continued staffing shortages. experts say that this rocky start to the summer travel boom is a sign of what's to come. frustrated flyers trying to get back home after thousands of flight delays and hundreds of cancellations put a damper on the weekend. darrell berg had no choice but to drive to his destination. are you worried about your trip home now? >> oh, absolutely. as much as i didn't mind the seven-hour drive, i'm not going to enjoy that again. >> reporter: bad weather and staffing issues to blame for the chaos, experts warn to buckle up for a bumpy summer ahead. >> nothing would keep me from traveling. >> reporter: travel is booming. nearly 7 million hit the skies, rivalling prepandemic numbers. but airlines are still operating at a lower capacity, and have

summer travel. first and foremost, book your flight early to lock in the price. but also the flight itself, as we mentioned. we talked about how those airlines are reducing their summer schedules. another thing to keep in mind, be flexible in your travel day. even by pushing your day forward or backwards, that could save you big bucks. consider alternate destinations. that will save you time and money. and we keep re-emphasizing this one, pack your patience. katie? >> emily, thank you. it trips me up to see andy gross as a spokesman for aaa. he used to produce these stories you're on right now. thank you so much. and hi, andy, if you're watching. next hour, the justice department is reviewing the police response in uvalde. what to expect and not to expect from the doj. and covid cases on this memorial day are five times higher than last memorial day.
