Parkland mom speaks with Congresswoman Greene

Linda Beigel Schulman, who lost her son, teacher Scott Beigel, in the Parkland, Florida, high school shooting in 2018, says Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene told her she doesn't believe major school shootings were staged, but refuses to say so in public.
