Jen Psaki rounds up the latest reporting in the investigation of a shooting in Washington, D.C. that has left two members of the West Virginia National Guard in critical condition. Ken Dilanian, MS NOW justice correspondent, shares new reporting on Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the 29-year-old Afghan national who came to the U.S. through a program for Afghan citizens after the United States ended involvement in Afghanistan.

Hakeem Jeffries, top Democrat in the House, reacts to the shooting of two members of the National Guard in Washington, D.C., and discusses with Jen Psaki the possibility of getting enough votes for a discharge petition to force a vote on health care subsidies. A discharge petition would overrule Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson the same way House Democrats with a handful of Republicans forced a vote on the release of the Epstein files.

Donald Trump won Tennessee's 7th Congressional District by 22 points last year, so Republicans may have expected an easy win in a special election coming this Tuesday, December 2. Instead, new polling shows the Democratic candidate, Aftyn Behn, all but closing the gap with Republican opponent Matt Van Epps. Behn talked with Jen Psaki about the success of her campaign and what she is hearing from voters.
