(CARTOON) #justsayin takes a look at Gov. Bryant and HB 1523
This week, Ford Williams takes a look at Gov. Phil Bryant and HB 1523, in which a federal appeals court said Thursday that Mississippi can enforce a law that allows merchants and government employees cite religious beliefs to deny services to same-sex couples, but opponents of the law immediately pledged to appeal. A three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a judge’s decision that had blocked the law. Gov. Bryant is a staunch supporter of the bill. Ford is a sophomore at the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) in Savannah, Georgia, and a 2016 honors graduate of Jackson Academy where he was named Most Talented and selected to the Hall of Fame.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE BECOMES AN ISSUE IN MIDTERMS – James Hohmann: “Republicans face a gender gap in November’s midterms that Democrats are trying to widen with claims of a GOP ‘war on women.’ So in recent days, several Republican candidates have countered by releasing ads on a topic generating headlines thanks to the Ray Rice scandal: domestic violence.

Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, said it would be a "good time" to have a hearing and he suggested he would consider looking at bump stocks. "I'm not an expert on bump stocks, [but] all things that make America safer and don't infringe on the Second Amendment, count me in," Graham said. In an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Rep.
