NO WORD ON THEDRIVER OF THE CAR.PRESIDENT BIDEN ANNOUNCINGSEVERAL EXECUTIVE ORDERS TODAYAIMED AT PREVENTING GUN VIOLENCEFOLLOWING A STRING OF MASSSHOOTING FROM GEORGIA TOCOLORADO TO CALIFORNIA ..

APOSSIBLY TONIGHT IN TEXAS..BUTWILL IT THEY HOLD UP IN COURT?WOULD THEY PREVENT THE NEXT MASSSHOOTING?

OUR JOEST.

GEORGE WORKING TO GET YOUANSWERS TO ALL THESE QUESTIONS.AFTER RECENT MASS SHOOTINGS INATLANTA, COLORADO AND CALIFORNIAPRESIDENT BIDEN ISSUING 6EXECUTIVE ACTIONS ON GUNCONTROL..

MOST SIGNIFICANTLY, HEIS REQUIRING THE JUSTICEDEPARTMENT TO ISSUE NEW GUIDANCEWITHIN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS ON"GHOST GUNS,’ STABILIZING BRACESAND RED FLAG LAWS.

AND THAT THEPRESIDENT IS ONLY ISSUINGEXECUTIVE ORDERS THAT WILLWITHSTAND LEGAL CHALLENGES.RIGHT NOW, THE SUPREME COURT ISVIEWED AS VERY SUPPORTIVE OF 2NDAMENDMENT RIGHTS.

AS FOR WHETHERMORE IS ONE THE WAY, THE WHITEHOUSE APPEARS TO HAVE MOREFLEXIBILITY THAN CONGRESS, WHERETHE ISSUE REMAINS POLARIZING ANDON THIS TOPIC A LA
