News Wrap: Trump defends planned rally in Tulsa on June 19

In our news wrap Friday, President Trump defended his plans for a campaign rally on June 19 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The day, known as Juneteenth, commemorates the end of slavery, and Tulsa was the site of a white-on-black massacre in 1921. Also, the drive to reform policing in the United States is gaining momentum. New York state has moved to ban chokeholds and release police disciplinary records.
