As Democrats put the heat on the Senate majority leader to take up gun-control legislation, protesters are showing up to his front door in Kentucky while he's on August recess. And in the wake of two mass shootings, the spotlight isn't going away. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi asked Trump on Thursday to order the Senate back to Washington to vote on gun-control legislation.
