JUST IN: Gun violence terrorism survivor Gabby Giffords:

President Trump and Majority Leader McConnell "must call the Senate back from August recess immediately. We cannot afford to wait another day for lawmakers to address this horrific national public safety threat."
Giffords: “It’s been 158 days since the US House of Representatives passed the Bipartisan Background Checks Act. How many more lives will be lost before Majority Leader McConnell and President Trump take the next steps to sign that lifesaving legislation into law?”
Sen. Sanders: "Mitch McConnell should bring the Senate back into session immediately to pass HR 8, the gun safety bill that has already passed the House. That's a first step to addressing our serious gun violence epidemic."

Amid rise in white supremacist domestic terrorism, US federal law enforcement doesn't have the same toolkit to fight domestic terror that it can use to fight international terror, legal experts and ex-FBI agents say. on.msnbc.com/2KoRh7N
Following the 9/11 attacks, the US government took an aggressive stance toward preventing and punishing acts of Islamist-inspired violence inside US borders, defining it as "international terrorism."

In contrast, there is no domestic terrorism statute.
Cases involving white supremacists are typically not prosecuted in US federal courts under terrorism statutes because they don't involve "foreign terrorist organizations."

They often land in state courts, becoming drug, fraud or murder cases.
