“Heartbreaking news out of Florida,” Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) tweeted. “Jane and I send our prayers to the school, the community, and the victims of this tragedy.”
“$3,061,941.00 from the NRA to make sure Americans buy guns,” Kimmel writer Bess Kalb tweeted, quoting the Texas Republican.

“In the 2015-2016 election cycle alone, GOP candidates took $17,385,437 from the NRA,” Kalb noted, quoting a tweet from Republican National Convention chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel.
“This is NOT counting the $21 million given to President Trump,” she added.

Trump says his life was better before he became president.
I understand. My life was also better before he became president.

“There is no doubt that the Russian military knew all about the attack in Deir Ezzor,” U.S. officials who monitor Syria told Bloomberg.
“Any Russian mercenaries, whether they are in Ukraine or Syria, work for the Russian government,” said Evelyn Farkas, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense for Russia, Ukraine and Eurasia during the Obama administration.
The report added: “For a cynic like Putin, whose air force has bombed other enclaves of U.S.-supported rebels in Syria, the inability of the U.S. to stop a NATO ally, Turkey, from attacking another ally in Afrin is a sign of weakness. The assault last week on Deir Ezzor with mercenaries was a chance to again probe for a U.S. response.”
What is truly perplexing is Trump’s decision to keep the incident under wraps and shy away from directly blaming Russia for the incident.
Russia needs to be held accountable and be told that an attack by its mercenaries will be treated as an attack by its armed forces.

EASY SOLUTION FOLKS . . . VOTE THEM OUT!!!
The thirteen Republican Senators who worked behind closed doors to rewrite the House’s American Health Care Act, received a combined $2,776,012 in campaign contributions from the health insurance and pharmaceutical manufacturing industries between November 2010 — the year Obamacare was passed — and November 2016, according to nonprofit journalism outfit MapLight.
The 13 lawmakers drafting the Senate legislation to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act received an average of $214,000 in campaign contributions – nearly double the amount received by colleagues excluded from the process, according to a MapLight analysis.
Orrin Hatch topped the list, bringing in nearly half a million dollars, followed by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who brought in $433,400.
Here’s a list of campaign contributions from insurance and pharmaceutical manufacturing industries to the senators drafting the secret health care bill:
- Orrin G. Hatch – $471,560
- Addison “Mitch” McConnell – $433,400
- Rob Portman – $382,100
- Patrick J. Toomey – $354,616
