Chris Cox, the NRA’s top strategist, was met with raucous applause when he announced to the estimated 80,000 people gathered here for the group’s annual leadership forum on Friday that the nation’s biggest and most influential gun-rights organization was officially backing the presumptive Republican nominee.

Yeah, nra stooges at their conventions will raucously applaud just about anything wayne lapierre-head & ted nugent & the rest of the nra clown car yells out at it's sucker dome.

warning readers, this might break your heart in many pieces, as it did mine (cough cough): “You can endorse anyone you want including the lying, progressive, anti-gun democrat DJ Trump, but you don't get to tell your dues paying membership ‘get over it,’” posted David Davis, who said he was ending his 30-year membership. “I didn't leave the NRA, the NRA left me.”

(PS, my heart broke since I was laughing so hard I couldn't stop)

Maybe I'm jimmy come lately on this, but an update on the co-conspirator release which was supposed to have happened a week ago (see rachel maddow). It was delayed because of one John Doe who filed to have it delayed since he was named & felt he would suffer irrevocable damage to his reputation (hmmm, who comes to mind as john doe? Christy, what am I thinking?)

Unsealed filings in the George Washington Bridge lane-closing case show federal prosecutors sided with media organizations in seeking a public hearing for an unidentified person trying to block the publication of a list of unindicted co-conspirators.
3rd Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the June 6 oral arguments in Philadelphia are to be open. A person identified as John Doe has challenged a judge’s order to release the list of co-conspirators and had sought to have the hearing closed.
The appeals court also ordered filings made under seal last week to be unsealed by noon Monday after a request by the media organizations fighting for the list to be released, including The Associated Press.
In its filing, the U.S. attorney’s office in Newark wrote that if it is unable to answer any question during the June 6 arguments because of grand jury secrecy or privacy concerns, it would answer the question privately, in a sealed submission. It said John Doe could do the same “if his personal circumstances bear on any issue this Court will be addressing.”
In previous court filings, Doe has said his reputation will be damaged and he will be branded a criminal if the list is released.
