The White House on Monday walked back President Donald Trump's support for raising the age to purchase a rifle from 18 to 21, now saying the idea is "still being discussed" and "a final determination and legislative piece has not been determined on that front".
Press secretary Sarah Sanders is slated to brief reporters at the White House on Monday, as political debates over immigration, firearms and the latest developments in the special counsel's Russian Federation probe continue to rage in Washington.
During a 75-minute event on Monday, Trump called on Florida Gov. Rick Scott to outline the steps he is taking to respond to the February 13 shooting in Parkland, Florida.
Trump says, "You don't know until you're tested, but I think I really believe I'd run in there even if I didn't have a weapon, and I think most of the people in this room would have done that, too".
Earlier on Monday, the Supreme Court rebuked President Donald Trump's ongoing effort to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, as it is now applied.
The president is again finding fault with officers who didn't stop the Florida gunman who carried out the massacre earlier this month.

Lesnar was suspended by the USADA for testing positive for banned substances following his fight with Mark Hunt at UFC 200 . There has been plenty of talk surrounding Lesnar as his current contract with World Wrestling Entertainment nears its end.
Trump criticized the Broward County Sheriff's Office in the wake of reports that they hesitated to enter the school to engage the gunman. Trump says that while "our nation is heartbroken", the USA needs "to have action" on measures related to school safety and gun violence.
Melania Trump says she has been "heartened" to see children "across this country" speaking out after the deadly shooting at a Florida high school.
Says Trump: "We can't have our kids shot up in schools". The president went above and beyond what previous administrations have done and offered on that program.
"I don't think that was the point he was making", Sanders said. The governors are in Washington for their annual winter meeting.
The appeal came when Trump had lunch with the leaders on Sunday.
