Lindsay?The world is all waiting and watching for that, Tom, thank you.We turn now to the search for suspects after at least 12 people were shot during a festival in Toledo, Ohio.People were seen running for cover as gunfire erupted.Disturbing moments at the scene, people crouching in fear as others tried to aid the injured.

We are not moving forward with the fund.

Not moving forward ever correct, but Trump still defending the plan.

I think the weaponization fund is a great idea.
