Holy SHite

Speaking on the 4-4, Diaz- Balart just said 'Had Alito been alive...' - clearly he meant Scalia.

Breaking - Armed man 'opens fire at German cinema'

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jun/23/armed-man-opens-fire-at-german-cinema-kinopolis-viernheim
<snip>
A masked man with a gun and ammunition belt opened fire in a cinema complex in the small western German town of Viernheim, near Frankfurt and barricaded himself inside, German media have reported.

Bild daily and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported that elite police were on their way to the scene.

The Darmstaedter Echo said 20 to 50 people had been injured, though initial reports suggested the injuries may have been caused by tear gas.

Police were not immediately available to comment.

More details soon …

Donald Trump faces wall of opposition as he returns to Scotland

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jun/23/donald-trump-faces-wall-of-opposition-as-he-returns-to-scotland
<snip>
When Susie and John Munro bought their cottage 35 years ago they had a clear view of Girdle Ness lighthouse in Aberdeen 10 miles south and the rugged, towering dunes which became their kids’ playground. All they can see now is an earth wall built by Donald Trump for “the world’s greatest golf course”, to hide their home from sight.

The berm, which reaches four metres-high and sits opposite their front door, entirely blocks out the horizon and the sea. A hefty locked gate blocks the public road they once used to reach the beach. In heavy rain, say the Munros, the road now floods. At times, they say Trump’s security staff sit in 4x4 vehicles watching their movements.

“He has just ruined it for us here. He has just hemmed us in,” Susie Munro said. “He just did what he pleased and the council just turned a blind eye.” And in a reference to his presidential campaign pledge to deal with immigration, she says quietly: “Mr Trump likes his walls.”

What happens when a gun lobby refers to the elected representatives

as criminals and terrorists for participating in a sit-in?

They must be widely condemned.

Just an observation

The Reagan Revolution was buried with Scalia - the worm has turned. Watching them defend Don the Con is not helping them either. Heart attacks are coming and strokes too - ReTHUG stress is palpable.

Yes it will take time to see some of the changes but this was a significant victory and the demands for gun regulations are not going away.

Back to the Dem feed on both CSpan and GEM$NBComcast

Every network should be carrying John Lewis

These corporate fuggers have so sense of history or a man or woman's genuine worth - I detest them
