PBS NewsHour reports:



White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is expected to address the deadly shooting in Las Vegas in Monday’s news briefing. Earlier today, President Donald Trump called the Las Vegas shooting that left at least 58 people dead and more than 500 wounded an “act of pure evil.”

The president also ordered flags to be lowered to half-staff at public buildings, military posts and the White House until Friday. Mr. Trump, joined by the first lady, will also lead a moment of silence later today on the White House grounds in honor of the victims in the mass shooting.
