President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden offered comfort Sunday to a city gripped by grief and anger as they paid respects at a memorial to 19 students and two teachers slain during a mass shooting at a Texas elementary school.

The visit to Uvalde was Biden's second trip in as many weeks to console a community in mourning after a staggering loss from a shooting. He traveled to Buffalo, New York, on May 17 to meet with victims' families and condemn white supremacy after a shooter espousing the racist"replacement theory" killed 10 Black people at a supermarket.

After visiting the memorial, Biden arrived for Mass at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, where some of the families of those who were killed worship. Near the church, a teacher held up a sign that said,"Mr. President, thank you for coming. I'm a teacher." "It's more than mourning," she said."We want change. We want action. It continues to be something that happens over and over and over. A mass shooting happens. It's on the news. People cry. Then it's gone. Nobody cares. And then it happens again. And again."

The Justice Department announced Sunday it will review the law enforcement response and make its findings public.

He didn’t even know where he was

Yes do something, but what about the schools? Isn't it their responsibility to make sure children and teachers are safe in the first place? I don't understand why the door was unlocked? God bless the people that tried to help, but the 'do soething' starts with us as a community.

Where's the 'Boos' at ?

Slooooowwww response to everything. Thought it wouldn’t get any worse than Trump.

I bet he didn’t even know where he was or what happened. Had his handlers walk him like a toddler

I hope he sees the window units Robb elementary still is using for the Texas heat. They desperately need a new school. Still not visiting Waukesha then? These people and disasters go hand in hand
