Description

Another mass shooting has happened in the country, this time in northern California at the Gilroy Garlic Festival.  19- year old Santino William Legan opened fire at the festival killing 3 and injuring at least 12 others. Police were on the scene quickly exchanging fire with the gunman and killed him.  It was all over in about a minute.  Barry Holtzclaw, managing editor at the Gilroy Dispatch joins us for what we know.

Next, while we want to know everything we can about why these tragedies happen, it is important not to lose sight of the victims.  While many were injured, the three deaths are heartbreaking because of how young the victims were.  They are 6-year old Stephen Romero, 13-year old Keyla Salazar, and 25- year old Trevor Irby.  My producer Brooke Peterson joins us for more.

Finally, another shakeup in the Trump administration as the Director of National Intelligence, Dan Coats, is resigning.  Texas Representative John Ratcliffe has been tapped to take over the post.  Ratcliffe is a fierce defender of the president and attracted attention for his stern questioning of Robert Mueller.  Morgan Chalfant, national security reporter at The Hill, joins us for who John Ratcliffe is.
