it is clear greg abbott has just reached an all new low. they were just people.man beings and he refuses at every step along the way in his policy, his goal is to dehumanize people, dehumanize latin americans, dehumanize hispanics. that is what he has done for the last several years. certainly, the last you days was a culmination of all that hatred that he spews. it is part of why we are broken as a nation. we certainly need to come back together and understand we are all in this together. i think the sheriff said it best. he did not see color. he saw five people who lost their lives, including the little boy. in a previous interview, he mentioned how tragically and what damage the bullets from the ar-15 did to their bodies. those are the same images i've seen from uvalde. people need to understand what is really going on in this nation and we need to fix it. amy: yesterday in the state legislature, can you talk about what the legislature was doing with setting up memorials for the people dead in uvalde as the parents were asking for what they considered a much m

i am used to greg abbott not being compassionate.'t think he has a compassionate bone in his body. we will keep moving forward and keep working for these families in uvalde and all texans. >> congresswoman escobar, a state representative from your district coauthored a recent op-ed titled, we have gun laws, we aren't using them. writes, quote, take someone convicted of domestic violence assault, in most cases nothing is done about it besides a brief warning, even if that. prohibited possessor's are on the honor system here. he is now sponsoring legislation at least requiring those prohibited from possessing firearms to sign affidavits that weapons are out of their possession. that bill is currently pending in committee. do you think the state legislator will move forward, even on this small step? >> i hope so. one of the things that we need to acknowledge is there is not one single solution to addressing what has become a national nightmare. a national nightmare that only occurs in our country because we are a country awash in guns.

also congratulations on "abbott elementary."hat a fantastic show about the philadelphia schools and the amazing teachers and kids inside. i wanted to ask you started with what is happening right now, what you are demanding as you go to the picket line. brittani: we are demanding that this industry be one that can sustain a career. it is as simple as that. we have a consistently profitable business, but right now, the actions of the studios seem to only care about wall street, chasing a rabbit they will never catch. in that pursuit, they are running over the workers of the industry. amy: explain exactly how it works. people want to these tv shows and movies nonstop but have little idea of what goes into making them. and why exactly streaming -- you talk about creating a gig economy. explain what you mean. brittani: the studios have devalued our contributions. they have shifted the industry to prioritize streaming while not following that up with the actions of making sure that our pay reflects those changes. a lot of the ways tha

but under your leadership, governor abbott, texas has become a killing field. some of the deadliest mass shootings have taken place in texas including in uvalde where 19 children and two adults were killed despite the presence of 317 police officers, and it is you, governing abbott, who has pushed for dangerous policies that weaken your state's gun crime laws. you signed permitless carry into law in 2021. less than two years after mass shootings in el paso and odesa which left 30 people dead. while you're obsessed with demonizing latino migrants and the border bogeyman, which you have called an invasion, no racism there, i'm sure, and you blame president biden for that so-called invasion, you, governor abbott, have ignored an actual invasion, the invasion of death culture into your party and state. like how in an average year, nearly 4,000 people die by gunfire in texas. and your state's gun laws which are so weak a person can buy a gun and carry it concealed in public without passing a criminal background check or taking firearms training. texas even allows so

you know, we played the kind of string of sound bites from governor abbott. he's consistently raised and tried to bring up. when it comes to mental health, do you feel like governor abbott, the republicans in the house and senate have done enough, given that they focus on this issue every time one of the shootings happens? >> unfortunately, you know, it appears that using mental health is just a shield in order to not address the issue of what's actually killing the people. that shooter at the allen outlet mall, he could have been as deranged as he wanted to have been but without that ar 15 or some other firearm, he problem bhi co -- probably could not have inflicted the amount of damage and killed as many people as quickly as he did. and, so, the issue, the very real issue is we have to take some common tesense approach to gun control legislation nlt i agree, we have to help people with mental health. we have to make our nation healthier. we're not doing enough. but we also have to do something about what's actually killing the people. that is these guns. th

i'm concerned by the lack of inspection at the abbott facility. i'm not saying that you're the only onehe to blame but between the fall of 2019 and 2021 there was just not a lot of inspections. the fda's resiliency roadmap claims that the agency prioritized and i quote mission-criticaldi inspections during the pandemic and according to the fda, the criteria for the mission-critical inspections is a product is usedd to treat a serious disease or medical condition and there is no substitute. is that partially correct? >> that is my understanding. >> survey product with no substitute to me that sounds like baby formula other than mother's breast milk but some mothers can't breast-feed for whatever reason. inspections are alsoo mission-critical when there is anbr evidence of serious adverse events or outbreaks of a foodborne illness. and again, that sounds to me like the w abbott plan. >> at the time there was no evidence of outbreaks or illnesses. at the time when the routine surveillance inspections were not in progress. >> can you repeat that one m

it's particularly rich coming from texas greg abbott.pril last year governor abbott took a look at the state agency in texas that's specifically tasked with overseeing mental health services in that state. last april governor greg abbott slashed their budget by over $200 million. less than a month later when a gunman killed 19 little girls and two teachers at a school in texas. governor abbott attributed that massacre in uvalde to the mental health challenge. he said as a reaction to the uvalde shooting texas should prioritize mental health right after he had cut $200 million from the agency that controls mental health services in his state. here's a different idea. a new texas poll shows that a vast majority of texas citizens including nearly two-thirds of texas republicans support new gun control legislation in that state. and governor abbott may not be listening to that feedback, but at least a sliver of the republican dominated legislature in texas might be. surprising as this may be to hear, today a republican controlled committee i

there is a back and forth with the chicago mayor and greg abbott of texas. abbott blamed the immigration crisis on biden's open border policies, and chicago is saying hey, stop sending busses of migrants to our city, we don't have the resources. k.j.p., and abbott told chicago to take their complaints to the white house. k.j.p. was asked about that a moment and responded with this, morgan, listen. >> it's unfortunate that governor abbott continues to play politics with migrants and with the american people. what he's doing, that's what it looks like, like a political stunt instead of trying to address the situation or maybe get the congressional members and senators in his state to actually ask them to work with us on truly dealing with the problem, with trying to figure out how do we deal with immigration reform instead of doing that he plays politics. >> sandra: she says abbott is playing politics. you know what, morgan, the reality for the cities of the influx of migrants, economic perilous situation and chicago has been very specific, you can find out th

but we know it happened because of abbott's account. abbott described it. they walked in mind, they waited. when lincoln saw these two black doctors abbott's word that lincoln eagerly approach them and put out his hand and shook augusta's hand. at that, mary lincoln looked over she did not like what she saw in this. she sent her son robert over to intervene. robert goes to his father and said are you really going to allow this innovation? the president turns to his side and said why not? at that, robert slinked back over to his mother. lincoln turned back to augusta come shook his hand again and then check abbott'sd items. the two black doctors with the beautiful east room of the white house for the way abbott describedgi it you can imagine e adrenaline was russian they could try to pretend they're enjoying the music and looking at the artwork. they were just everything they could to can keep their composure but they spent 30 minutes walking through the east room of the white house, the crowd of white visitors gathered in a hollow circle around them and mov

abbott describe it, they walked in line, they waited and when lincoln saw these two black doctors abbott's word is lincoln eagerly approached them and put out his hand and shook agusta's hand. mary lincoln looked over and she did not like what she saw in the man she sent her son robert over to intervene, robert goes to his father and says are you really going to allow this innovation and the president turns to his son and says why not? at that, robert slinked back over to his mother, lincoln turned back to agusta, shook his hand again and then shook abbott's hand at the two black doctors went to the beautiful east room of the white house have a way abbott describe it, you can imagine their adrenaline was rushing, they tried to pretend they were enjoying the music and looking at the artwork but they were just doing everything they could to keep their composure and as they spent 30 minutes walking through the east room of the white house the crowd of white visitors opened up in a hollow circle around them and moved around as they walked. people who saw this were astounded by what they saw. l

exactly what augustine decided to do in february of 1864, the another black doctor named anderson abbott to come up who happens to be doctor that augustine had trained at trinity medical school, they decided to go to reception at the white house thp president first lady on regular evening perceptions and anyone who wanted to come up ago and it didn't take the president's hand pretty inept this point, only white americans had to this in the decided, to push the boundaries as of it whenever i've been on their uniforms which are actually show up white house and as they approach, they hear the beautiful music wafting out of the building and they go in through the door they take up their cross and they give up to the service and a big get in line to shake the president said we know what happens because anderson abbott, left an account of this and actually people in the lincoln forum member for several years, published at account last year in while this is not new for you but is new for the first numbers but we know what happened because of abbott's account. in the habit describing how they wo

we are currently monitoring the remarks from governor greg abbott in austin. those remarks about title 42. if we get anymore information or details about the two tragedies that occurred down in texas, in governor abbott's state, we'll certainly bring that to you. ed will stick by as well. >> one of the first responders on the scene on saturday in texas in that tragic mass shooting was a former army and police officer. his name is steven spainhauer and he was rushing to the mall after he got a call from his son who worked at the h&m, after the gunman opened fire. thankfully, his son, freddy, 23 years old, was not harmed. steven joins us now. >> good morning, poppy. >> really a terrible morning for you, your entire state, and this country. as you understand it, you found a child alive with a mother dead, protecting that child. is that right? >> yes, i did. it's pretty horrific, what i saw. i didn't go with the intent of being a first responder or helping anybody, i went to find my son. i was surprised when i drove into the mall that it was -- the parking lot was

governor abbott and the republicans will not do anything. the weekend refocusing this conversation on mental health resources. we heard from him this morning where he said there are still questions about why and how this happened and once they get that information, it will inform the steps and measures that the state of texas will make moving forward. senator roland gutierrez who represents uvalde and several family members of those victims plan to be at the state capitol calling on action for gun reform as we look ahead to the anniversary of that horrific shooting as well here. mika. >> priscilla thompson, live in allen, texas, thank you so much for that report. there have been 201 mass shootings in the u.s. this year. we're not even halfway through the year, according to the gun violence archive, which defines a mass shooting as an incident in which four or more people are injured or killed. in texas alone, there have been 17 this year. a reporter from the austin american statesman highlighted some of the most high profile shootings in the

he tags the nra. >> yeah, that is not surprising for governor abbott.ssociation. they put profits over people's lives. a few sessions ago, governor greg abbott reduce the age to purchase cigarettes from 18 to 21. i reported that. there have not been republicans who are willing to raise the age to purchase military style assault weapons. how many more people do we have? how many parents and fathers and mothers and sisters and brothers? how many more? enough is enough. you cannot quantify profits over people. that is what they are simply doing. they are not allowing any common sense legislation to be voted on the house floor. those uvalde families waited hours and hours to testify. they were opposed by the nra. they would rather continue their assault on women's reproductive rights, banning books, the assault on the lgbtq community and legislation which harms black and brown people, but absolutely nothing for common sense gun reforms. we are making it easier to purchase guns, not harder. we are doing nothing, absolutely nothing. the people need to stand u

how is this greg abbott's fault targeting him as a racist? >> that's the claim.ew york city, chicago, denver, los angeles, one other, i guess eric adams is asking why not jacksonville, florida or ft. worth, texas or oklahoma city with republican mayors. isn't this using the poor immigrants shipping them to make a political statement much like they did in martha's vineyard? >> if there were coordination that would be one thing. willy-nilly or arbitrarily or at the opinion of the -- of greg abbott they're going to cities that he believes are, you know, the kind of cities where amnesty is granted illegals where they get to live their lives and dumping them in new york without any coordination. i am opposed to that. if there were coordination or some kind of way to say okay, next thursday you will be get x and so much. >> dana: isn't that the federal government's responsibility? >> as eric adams makes very clear if they will not do the job the city mayors will do it. ad hoc solution. >> bill: we don't know what's happening in these other cities. remember the dark of

that is abbott's lieutenant governor, who was one of the pioneers of the door control movement. remember that one? it was asserting that guns were the issue at the heart of school shootings in our country, the number of doors these school has is the real danger. if only we could guard the doors. to be clear, we are not saying these individuals are responsible, but these people have worked to create the environment that we are seeing in texas. no doubt about it. and that environment is one where guns seem to matter more than human life. joining me now is democratic congressman -- of texas. congressman, thank you so much for making time tonight. i know that your state is in mourning once again, just after the horrible events in cleveland, texas. now, your reckoning with another mass shooting, this time in allen, texas. how are you doing? how are your constituents doing? how do texans wake up every day in that state with all of this grief and tragedy and heartbreak? >> yeah, you know, the first thing that i thought of was that allen is not far from fort worth, where my family and i

2014, greg abbott was first elected. got reelected in 2018 and then 2022, after uvalde, he is running against beto o'rourke who was a passionate advocate for stricter gun safety laws. he creamed beto o'rourke. if you look at the exit poll in texas in 2022, was gone safety the number one issue? no. inflation was. was it a number? to know, abortion wise. number three? no, immigration was. gun policy in texas was the fourth most important issue, the most important issue to only 12% of the voters there. that is the answer to the question. the only way that there is moral courage required on the part of some of these people to do the right thing another vast majority of people want to see. but the truth is, until people start to lose elections because they defy the will of the people, they will not -- greg abbott is an object lesson is someone who has flaunted the vast majority of texans want, but they don't care enough to voted out on that issue. until they start doing that, he's going to keep flaunting. >> reverend, we saw

this is not governor abbott's fault.ows a vast majority of americans blame the federal government, not the state government, for the immigration problems. it is a federal problem. which is curious, by mayorkas goes on tv, saying we did the right thing on day one, we introduced legislation, and congress never did anything, so therefore he can't do anything either? jessica tweeted this weekend, which i pointed out as well, it's graduation season, they're graduating as a doctor, a girl here illegally for a long time, studied oncology, wants to be a farmepharmacist, no, you have t, deporting her. biden put migrants on planes in the middle of the night to fly them around the country. abbott is saying, they're going around the country. she's crying uncle. she should call uncle biden. >> judge, what are your thoughts? >> you know what's so amazing, the arrogance of a mayor to say how dare you governor abbott to send these people to chicago. she's pleading, it's not fair. they'll have an uncertain future if they come to chicago.

greg abbott, i mean, it's just absolutely discussing that greg abbott puts up tweets saying that texas is only number two in the states that have purchased new guns. said he is ashamed, they need to be number one. he changes law after law after law that makes it easier for people that are unqualified, untrained, emotionally unmoored, and they get guns. untrained. he says, "i'm embarrassed." this is in 2015. "texas number two in the nation for new gun purchases, behind california. let's pick up the pace, texans." of course, he wants the nra to know he is being a good boy. he wants the nra to know he is a faithful servant, that he is going to care more about the gun lobby than children that get killed in his own state. by the way, this is about guns. the whole, you know, it's not guns that kill people, it's people that kill. oh, really? let's look at the last ten years. as guns have continued to skyrocket in the past ten years, as gun laws have become stupider, more dangerous and more deadly, look at firearm mortality in the state of texas. it has skyrocketed. it co keeps going up. the s

and governor abbott may not be listening to that feedback.slature might be. surprising as this might be to hear. today a republican-controlled committee in the texas house advanced a bill that would raise the age limit for buying an assault rifle. the same weapon that was used in allen and the uvalde shooting. it would raise the minimum age to buy a gun like that from 18 to 21. it passed a republican-dominated house committee in texas. now, the bill has a long way to go. it has to clear the louse and the republican-controlled senate before making to it governor abbott's desk. i should tell you, he has made it abundantly clear he has stated that he has no intention of ever signing such a bill. he said any bill that would raise the age minimum to buy an assault weapon would be, quote, unconstitutional and therefore could never support it. watch this space. how to grow more vibrant flowers: step one: feed them with miracle-gro shake 'n feed. that's it. miracle-gro. all you need to know to grow. ♪ ♪ ♪ cargurus. shop.buy.sell.online. your best def
