Rubio is considering running for reelection despite saying he's done. The Orlando massacre and the weak field has Republicans begging for him to stay.
Could he win?
Does Florida wants a candidate who doesn't really want the job?
Who knows? The race is still TOSS UP and the Democrats are hoping to embarrass Republican once again.
Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL) and Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) and about half a dozen Republicans are competing candidates for the open seat being vacated by the most thirstiest senator in the state.
Marco Rubio, the failed Republican candidate for president had the backing of most of the establishment. He had a halo around his head. The Republicans were banking on either Jeb Bush or Marco Rubio securing the nomination.
Unfortunately, Donald Trump stepped into the arena and knocked Little Marco out.
Rubio went back to Florida in disgrace. Now this terrorist attack in Orlando has gotten major attention. The Republicans fear this controversy could help Democrats win a crucial seat.
Rubio is seriously considering running. Rep. David Jolly (R-FL), the freshman lawmaker who replaced coke boy Trey Radel was a favorite among the Republicans. But with little name recognition and lack of interest, Jolly decided to bow out clearing the way for Rubio to jump in if he choose to.
Rubio has the worst voting record in the senate. Since he started in 2011, the Republican has been gearing up for a presidential bid.
The Three Stooges stand firm in guns, name calling and all out bitching. Chris Cox, Donald Trump and Wayne LaPierre go to GOP Sundays to deny facts. Sen. Jeff Session (R-AL) comes along for the ride.
Ignorance continues to be a part of American culture. We are numb to gun violence. Everyday 20 to 50 people are killed by firearms. About 3,000 people are killed by firearms.
U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch heads to GOP Sundays to discuss the Orlando massacre, Hillary Clinton's emails, and the president's gun control proposals.
Congress continues to hold a moment of silence and their prayers with the
There's not enough prayers to stop this.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
Donald Trump goes to GOP Sundays to discuss his falling poll numbers, his upcoming appearance at the oldest gun lobbyist group the National Rifle Association and why he is being criticized by fellow Republicans.
The NRA president and spokesman for the group go to GOP Sundays to defend their stance on firearms. Chris Cox, the president of the the NRA-ILA and chairman Wayne LaPierre both appear on GOP Sundays to complain about the president and Lynch.
Mind you that LaPierre is an idiot and he couldn't even say her name right.
Wayne LaPierre says that "Janet" Lynch and her gun grabbing losers at the Justice Department ain't going to take his gun.
The Brady Foundation teams up with the victims of gun violence to head to Virginia with the intentions of protesting the NRA's stubborn views on gun violence.
Also the old tired argument of the "good guy with the gun".
In the wake of an active shooting, the good guy with a gun wouldn't be even capable of stopping a threat given the mass shooter having an automatic firearm. The law doesn't see a "good guy" with the gun. They see a threat. Even if you disarm the threat, the law might mistake you as a threat or you could end up injuring a victim. You will likely face criminal charges if you kill an innocent victim.
The good guy with a gun argument is stupid. You can't predict the motivations of a mass shooter.
Trevor Noah and Jordan Klepper knocks down the argument of a "good guy" with the gun.
Man gunned down while sharing his life on social media.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
It's easy to purchase a firearm without any questions. The inept Republican-controlled Congress refuses to act in the wake of senseless gun tragedies. House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) are total failures as leaders.
They fear the NRA more than the victims of gun violence. They rather try to blame the president for gun violence and terrorist attacks.
Gun sales are up everytime there's a mass shooting. The Orlando massacre is officially a week in.
While the junk food media zeros in on Orlando, other areas in the United States have seen a spike in gun violence.
Between March and September, it starts to get warmer. Gun violence begins usually around late March when the people shed their coats and embrace the sun. On sunny days, gun violence increases.
People with access to firearms can use them on anyone. A bullet doesn't care what it hits. It's always going to hit a target.
Chicago is well on its way to another deadly summer. The mass shootings in the third largest city is a contribution towards domestic terrorism. Gang violence is terrorism as well. The Chicago Police are releasing the name of the victim. They say he had ties to domestic terrorists.
A man was shot in the head and chest at point blank range while he was sharing his life on social media. He was livestreaming on Facebook when a person comes out of nowhere and pops him within seconds.
As the man drops, you hear the screams of people while the camera is rolling.
Antonio Perkins became an internet sensation for all the wrong reasons. He was gunned down while filming with his friends in Chicago's North Lawn District.
The 14-minute video featured the man hanging out when six minutes later, gun shots were heard. Antonio drops to the ground and people start screaming. The shooting happened in the dusk hours so it's hard to capture the suspects on the video.
Facebook expressed its condolences to the family of Antonio Perkins and told the junk food media that the video had to be pulled because it violated the terms of service.
Social media has taken off as of lately. An Islamic State follower murdered two French cops and posts it on social media. Then a group of teen livestreamed on Periscope a girl being raped in Ohio.
Even some of the victims of the Orlando massacre filmed the event for video clicks. Instead of exiting the building some would film the guy gunning down innocent victims.
Now like all concern trolls, conservatives automatically blame someone else other than the shooter.
No outrage over the Ohio woman and man who livestreamed the rape of a girl.
To conservatives he's just another dead NIGGER who probably deserved his own death.
Already a hour since the video went viral, the word vomit of Obama and #BlackLivesMatter came up. Since President Barack Obama has a home in Chicago and the #BlackLivesMatter focuses on police reform, according to conservatives, they attack the cops and ignore Black on whatever crime.
Of course, the conservatives lie about the president and the movement. The president is actively talking about gun violence and Chicago. The #BlackLivesMatter movement hasn't ignored gun violence. They are having a gathering today in the wake of this senseless tragedy.
And it will be ignored by the junk food media. Once it splashes on The Drudge Report, WorldNetDaily or Colin Flaherty's shithole, it's covered only for the fact it was a Black man being killed and Obama doesn't care.
To the conservative trolls, it's just another dead NIGGER from CHICONGO!
Wondering if the boy who was killed by an alligator became a pissing match between conservatives who send their condolences to the family of the boy while chastising the family of another boy who gotten into a zoo enclosure and was dragged by a gorilla.
No one seems to point out that the man was enjoying life when this cold hearted killer murdered him with no remorse.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Antonio Perkins.
Trump calls for boycott of APPLE after they dropped the endorsement of the Republican Convention.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the brand isn't going to be a part of the Republican National Convention. This comes as blow to the Republican Party's outreach to individuals.
Republicans fear they could lose the Congress if Donald Trump continues on with the divisive rhetoric. In July 18-21, the Republican National Convention will in Cleveland, Ohio and Donald Trump will accept the nomination for the party. Many Republicans fear that Trump could damage the brand for a generation. His attacks on fellow Republicans and those who distance themselves from him has made the party lose confidence in their chances.
The Color of Change is hoping that companies see Donald Trump as the bigot he is. They want national brands to back out of sponsoring the event.
Walmart and Coca-Cola both backed out of both conventions.
The distancing from Trump is a sign of problems awaiting the party. The party's far right politicos and agitators are driving the party off the cliff.
Washed up actor Scott Baio is a canceled sitcom. He's going after the president for not saying "radical Islam". Saying he supports terrorism.
Washed up celebrity Scott Baio calls President Barack Obama a terrorist.
You may remember Baio who played Chachi from Happy Days and Charles from Charles in Charge.
No, you don't!
Well here's some real shit going on! Baio is a big time Republican. He's certainly in the tank for Donald Trump. He's pretty damn sure about the president being a sympathizer towards the Islamic State.
The washed up celebrity went on Fox Business Network to give his two cents on the Orlando massacre.
Baio kept calling "Lester" for some reason—that Obama is either dumb, a Muslim, or a Muslim sympathizer. "I don't think he's dumb," Baio clarified. The erstwhile Bob Loblaw also wondered if Obama's secret goal is to “totally eliminate the United States as it was created and founded and the way it is now?”
Baio was in the news sometime ago. He posted on social media a racist tweet about First Lady Michelle Obama. He said that he was snubbed by Hollywood after this. Many in the industry pretty much wiped him like toilet paper and flushed him down the toilet.
Of course the president doesn't mince words when it comes to fighting terrorism. He said that the Republican Party and their conservative allies have often used their tongues instead of brains.
Calling the threat "radical Islam" isn't going to make the threat go away. Yet, Republicans and conservative agitators (i.e. Softball Hannity) would waste their time blaming the 1.6 billion worshippers of the Muslim faith.
Baio is a piece of shit. He seriously believes the first Black president is a "MUSLIM".
Damn shame that Baio isn't hiding in an Indiana trailer park like his former co-star Erin Moran.
Here's the list of washed up celebrity Trump supporters.

Wonder what the conservatives are going to complain about once Obama's out of office?
Would you want your child to have a rope around their neck and the school saying that this was a playful accident?
In Texas, there was a shocking incident that occurred in Waco. A young Black girl was roped by three White boys and they tried to drag her around. Now the parents are shocked by this event and are planning on suing the school for negligence.
Now the little girl got a scar that's so noticeable, the law is getting involved in this.
Live Oak Classical School is being sued for a $3 million in damages for allowing this to happen.
The New York Times report that the school is denying that race was a factor to this incident.
Lawyers for the girl, who is identified in court papers filed on Monday only as K.P., said evidence suggested that race played a role in the episode, which occurred during an overnight outing in April by students from the Live Oak Classical School in Waco. The girl was 12 at the time.
But while lawyers for the girl and the school agree that something happened to the student, they disagree about virtually everything else — whether what occurred had been a deliberate act, the severity of her injuries, who was to blame and if race was a motivation.
The girl’s mother, Sandy Rougely, said in an interview on Thursday that she thought her daughter was wearing a necklace when she first saw her after the trip. She said when she learned that the marks had been caused by a rope, “that just tore me into pieces.”
“It looked like somebody ripped my daughter’s neck off and stitched it back together,” Rougely said. The marks are still visible, she added.
Rougely said she took her daughter to an emergency room, where she was treated for severe rope burns, and the police were called.
Lawyers for both sides said the Blanco County Sheriff’s Office was investigating. Sheriff’s officials could not immediately be reached.
According to the lawsuit, the girl had transferred in 2014 from a public school to Live Oak, which has about 400 students in junior kindergarten through 12th grade and affirms the principles of Christianity. It is made up predominantly of white children, the suit says. Rougely said her daughter had a partial scholarship to attend the $7,000-a-year school.
The girl had been flourishing in fifth grade, the suit said, but in sixth grade, she reported that her classmates would not talk to her and physically bullied her. She was pushed to the ground, and a classmate kicked and shoved her when a teacher was not looking, court papers said. Rougely said school officials blamed her daughter, and when the mother met with administrators and counselors, she felt rebuffed.
It was against this backdrop that the girl and 21 other students went on the trip to a bucolic property near Johnson City, TX., for an end-of-year school trip on April 28.
The lawsuit said the episode occurred at a swing: a disc-shape basket hanging from a tree with a separate rope that the children pulled to lift the swing higher. The girl said she had been pulling on the rope but then became tired and stood to the side. She then felt the rope around her neck, and she was “violently jerked” to the ground.
“When it got around my neck, no one helped me, so I had to pull it off by myself,” she said in an interview with The Dallas Morning News.
Innocence lost on this day. The Charleston massacre marks a milestone.
It's been one year since the tragic mass shooting at the Mother Emanuel AME church in Charleston, South Carolina. On this day, a terrorist would enter the predominantly Black church and massacre nine worshipers. One included a pastor who was a state senator.
Now we're in the first week since the massacre in Orlando and yet nothing has changed on the gun issue.
Every mass shooting in the United States sparks a rise in gun sales. The NRA and Republican lawmakers continue to push the good guy with a gun narrative. It's a pathetic way to ignore the real issue facing our country.
GUN VIOLENCE.IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
Terrorist find it very easy to acquire firearms. They know that Republicans are weak on legislation to stop them. They openly encourage potential madmen to find straw buyers and lapse laws.
Even in the wake of the Orlando tragedy, we skirted past the previous murderer. This guy lived in North Carolina and had deep seated hatred towards Black people. He told his friend that he's going to start a race war. The friend thought he was joking. Turns out he wasn't and he carried out the massacre on a Wednesday night while church as doing nightly service.
The terrorist managed to escape. He managed to make it to North Carolina before he nabbed by the law.
Now this terrorist is facing federal hate crime and state murder charges. The feds proposed the Death Card if he's found guilty of all nine counts of murder.
This terrorist is innocent until proven guilty.
The one thing good that came out this situation was the remove of the losing flag from the state house grounds. The terrorist had posted on social media his love for the losing flag. It took a lot of pressure from the junk food media to make the losing flag history last year. #BlackLivesMatter, the NAACP, President Barack Obama, and the world forced Republican governor Nikki Haley to denounce the losing flag.
In July, the flag went down. It spread like wildfire. The flag was removed from many institutions and state houses.
No remorse.
To this day, the issues of gun violence are often met with little or no action from the Republican controlled Congress. Ever since the first shooting under the president's watch, Congress has been slow on getting legislation through.
Hopefully, this could spark the flame to kick the Republicans back to the minority.
As a majority, they have wasted too much time trying to stop the president. The president has been all to nice to the Republican majority and the NRA. He gave them all they wanted and yet they haven't done nothing for him.
Mass shootings are an everyday thing here in the United States.
Mind you if the shootings in Charleston, Umpqua Community College, San Bernardino and now Orlando doesn't spark discussion on gun control, what will?
How about a member of Congress being shot! Oops, Gabby Giffords was shot at point blank range.
Giffords barely survived a shooting in the head. She is permanently disabled. She was a staunch gun supporter but after this, she turned into one of the leading voices in the gun control movement.
Nothing changed that day! Nothing has changed so far. It's already being ignored now that the victims are being buried. What happens next? Another mass shooting....or perhaps an animal attacking a child.
World News Today continue to cover the Orlando shooting.
I made it back to Ohio. I was in Niagara Falls and Toronto. I also made a few stops in Buffalo, Cleveland, Akron and Columbus, Ohio.
I am been on an Instagram fixation. I have posted a bunch of pictures of my travels. If you want to like my pictures visit my profile page.
