Description
First up, the hosts discuss what we’re learning about the Apalachee High School mass shooting and look at whether there will be a new effort by Democrats in the Legislature to roll back the permissive gun laws that the GOP-dominated General Assembly approved.  Then, Republican consultant Brian Robinson and Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson join the podcast to talk about how the shooting is affecting the presidential race.  Plus: Democratic state Rep. Shea Roberts discusses her red flag legislation, which didn’t get a hearing last session.
