The Stages of Grief

(Cartoonist - John Darkow)

In other news, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) says he will not even talk to a supreme court nominee because Mitch McConnell is 5 years old.

Meanwhile, the CDC now says up to 14 out of 90 (so far) Zika virus cases in the U.S. can be linked to sexual activity which is apparently far more than they expected.

And finally, I'm sure it won't come as a big surprise but congressional Republicans have already come out against President Obama's plan to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

A lot of useful idiots in the media have faintly praised the president for "finally" releasing a plan today without immediately acknowledging that Congress has blocked closure every single year of his presidency. I don't expect this year will be any different.
