Egypt has deported Liliane Daoud, British-Lebanese TV host for her critical views of al-Sisi

Ms Daoud's 10-year-old daughter, an Egyptian national, was at their home when her mother was led away by police. Officers reportedly confiscated Ms Daoud's mobile phone and British passport.
There was no formal explanation for Ms Daoud's deportation, but a security official told the Associated Press (AP) that her residency permit had expired.
Shortly before her arrest, Ms Daoud had written on Twitter: "I am announcing the official termination of my contract with OnTV after five years that began in 2011."
Ms Daoud's lawyer, Zyad el-Elaimy, said her first comment after landing in Beirut was that she would challenge the decision.
"It's the first time someone is deported in this fashion in Egypt," Mr Elaimy told AP by telephone from Cairo.
The Egyptian authorities, he added, were "not prepared to hear any diverse voices or to hear anyone who is supportive" of the 2011 uprising that toppled longtime President Hosni Mubarak.

I think it makes sense that her chances of winning nationally are pretty identical to her chances of winning Pennsylvania

fun stuff that was in the horrible dead Zika bill:

Democrats opposed the bill, which they complained was negotiated between Senate and House Republicans with little input from them and was loaded with "poison pill" riders that cut health programs, restricted funding for birth control services from Planned Parenthood, weakened clean water laws and blocked a ban on displaying the Confederate flag at U.S. military cemeteries.

it will never be over:
In a statement late Tuesday evening — hours after GOP leaders released their 800-page analysis of the 2012 terrorist attacks in the Libyan city — the committee said it would be proceeding with a new interview of a military official who claimed on Facebook that he might have knowledge of the incident.

In April, the Pentagon made an extraordinarily public protest to the committee’s “multiple and changing requests,” in what the committee leaders described as an orchestrated effort to undermine the investigation’s integrity. In that letter, the Defense Department’s top liaison to Capitol Hill called the interview of the military official — who claimed to have been a mechanic at an airbase in Europe the night of the Benghazi attack and said that planes could have reached Benghazi before the violence ended — unnecessary.

“The department maintains that locating these types of individuals are not necessary since such claims are easily dismissed by any one of the multiple high-level military officials already interviewed," the Defense official said.

Trump has slid from +3 in the Fox poll immediately following wrapping up the nomination to -6. He's only getting 74% of GOP voters against Hillary after 6 weeks of being the nominee (vs. 82% post Indiana). 51% of Republicans prefer someone else to be the nominee.

Reallllly need him to step in a big pile of shit in the next week to possibly precipitate action now that the poll #s are all pointing in the same direction (annihilation).

Slow news day, so in Maine the Republican nominee for President of the Ufuckingnited States of America returns to endorsing our engagement in war crimes (waterboarding).

I'd pay to watch McCain beat the bloody hell out of the ridiculous, revolting coward on national teevee

Rs, you MUST rescind/revoke totally say "no ever-fucking way, what were we thinking?" to this filthy shitbag's ever running as your party's nomination. In fact you really ought to be thinking about denouncing him from the stage of your convention and calling for his deportation.

People suggest drumpf's kids & family are "wonderful" - his idiot sons are idiots, and his women... I imagine if left standing in a warm sun, they might give off the aroma of cheap patio furniture.

If any of them had any spine they'd tell the old man he's a repulsive blot on humanity to his face

it's true, I detest any drumpf

Why don't you do a repayment plan?

That sounds like a repayment plan to me. I tried to set one up and that's about what they wanted.

I guess so. I don't think I've ever put a percentage of monthly income to what I pay. Now I feel bad man too.
