Supreme Court strikes down Texas abortion access law In a dramatic ruling, the Supreme Court on Monday threw out a Texas abortion access law in a victory to supporters of abortion rights who argued it would have shuttered all but a handful of clinics in the state. The ruling will have reverberations on the presidential election, where the fate of the Supreme Court has been front-and-center after the death of Scalia in February. Senate Republicans have refused to act on President Barack Obama's nomination of Judge Merrick Garland, leaving the court with eight justices. Monday's ruling signals that even if Republicans were to name that replacement, the court still has a five-justice majority that could rule against abortion restrictions. And if Hillary Clinton were to win, the majority could even grow. President Obama and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton tweeted about this most recent law. Hillary said "SCOTUS's decision is a victory for women in Texas and across America. Safe abortion should be a right—not just on paper, but in reality. -H". While President Obama said that he was pleased with the newly passed law. Even though I am totally against abortions, I think the decision to make abortion safer is way better that just going in one way and coming out another. With the recent decision this may hurt some candidates this election term.
Why 2017 could be the year Georgia Republicans embrace Medicaid expansion. (Or not.) More Georgia Republican lawmakers than ever want to expand the Medicaid program next year. They don’t know what shape it will take, how much it will cost or whether they have enough support to force a vote. But they say it is past time for Georgia to begin accepting tens of billions in federal money to expand coverage to more than 600,000 low-income residents. They face the same objections that thwarted past attempts. But backers point to recent developments that could play to their advantage. And Gov. Nathan Deal and other GOP leaders haven’t shut the door on the idea. “I still have the same concerns. And you won’t see anyone advocating a wholesale Medicaid expansion,” Deal said in an interview. “But I do think there will be variations that will be discussed, and I look forward to talking to members of the General Assembly.” I feel that the republicans pushed towards healthcare it would be more beneficial especially since a lot of people are in Georgia without any type of insurance. Passing a law to expand Medicaid would be extremely helpful and show our progression in caring for the greater good instead of the richer half of the world.
Accused Macon Mall shoplifter pulled knife on Macy’s workers, warrant says A 34-year-old Macon man allegedly pulled a knife on two Macy’s employees earlier this month. Carlos Delmara Shelley, of Mosley Avenue, was arrested about 2 p.m. Friday on multiple warrants involving thefts over the last two months at Macon Mall. Just before 9 p.m. on June 13, Shelley is accused of armed robbery after allegedly pointing a knife at Macy’s employees as he stole $2,000 worth of clothes, according to a warrant. Five days later, Shelley allegedly stashed seven pairs of Carter’s infant shirts and shorts under his shirt and ran out of the store. In May, Shelley allegedly took more than $2,000 worth of Levi’s he concealed in a duffel bag, and he was later charged with shoplifting and criminal trespass. The warrant says Shelley had already been ordered to stay away from the J.C. Penney store in the shopping center on Eisenhower Parkway.

Accused Macon Mall shoplifter pulled knife on Macy’s workers, warrant says cont.
Carlos Shelley
From reading the article I don’t know what they have charged him with but it’s safe to say he will be charged. Most likely he will be charged with shoplifting, simple assault, and disorderly conduct just to name a few. He’ll probably be denied bond and spend about 3 + years in jail. You would think that African American men would realize that this is what the government wants from you. I am disappointed in his actions but sadly he is going to have to pay the consequences and of course they will not go light in your sentencing. After this hopefully Mr. Shelley will get his self together and be a better man for his family and the younger generations.
Do you #Regrexit? UK voters voice doubt over referendum choice
From Brexit to #Regrexit -- an online petition demanding a second referendum on Britain's decision to leave the EU has passed 3 million signatures. By Sunday morning, 3,048,000 people had signed the petition on the official UK Parliament website. That number takes it well over the 100,000-signature threshold needed to force a debate on the issue by members of Parliament. A rush to sign the petition caused the website to crash temporarily due to the high volume of traffic Saturday. The petition, set up by William Oliver Healey. Thursday’s referendum had a turnout of 72.European reaction to Brexit vote .Ben Hewlett, a Conservative MP, confirmed on Twitter than the petition would be discussed by the House of Commons petitions Select Committee Tuesday. That news came as some voters who had backed the "Leave" campaign took to twitter to register their regret -- adopting the #Regrexit hashtag. People thought that their vote wasn’t going to matter too much. When David Cameron resigned a lot of people were left distraught. Finally the reality is actually hitting in and the regret is setting in. A lot of people wish they had the opportunity to vote again. Places in southwest England voted to leave the EU hope the government ministers will keep getting funding equal to its previous EU allocation. I don’t know much about politics but they should set up rules to make sure that the transition is smooth if they decide to leave EU. If they decide to keep things how they are they may have to set up policy and procedure to keep the majority happy to prevent any breakdowns or riots that may happen.
