Running the operations is Brian O. Walsh, president of Future45. In 2010, Walsh directed a $26 million campaign at dark money nonprofit American Action Network an effort that succeeded in helping Republicans gain control of the House. Walsh left the American Action Network in January.
Weiser, former chairman of the Michigan Republican Party, is chairman of Future45.

Tenn. School Wins Right to Ban Gays and Women Whove Had Sex: This Is Who We AreThe waiver allows the school to ban LGBT students and anyone else who does not fit their religious ideology.
By David Edwards / Raw Story December 10, 2015
A Tennessee university has been granted the right by the federal government to ban students who go against their interpretation of Christianity.
Carson-Newman University President Dr. Randall OBrien told WVLT that he had filed for a Title IX exemption from the federal government because his attorney recommended it.
The waiver allows the school to ban pregnant students, women who have had an abortion, single mothers, LGBT students and anyone else who does not fit their religious ideology.

Woman who shot at shoplifters vows to 'never help anybody again' after conviction

The Washington Post
Tatiana Duva-Rodriguez thought she was doing the right thing when she pulled out her pistol and fired at a pair of shoplifters as they fled from a Home Depot near Detroit.
She wasn't, at least in the eyes of the law.
On Wednesday, a Michigan judge sentenced Duva-Rodriguez to 18 months of probation and stripped the 46-year-old of her concealed gun permit.

In the wake of two terror attacks, two gun rights groups in Texas have decided now is a good time for a mock mass shooting.
Come and Take It Texas and DontComply.com are planning the emphatic demonstration on the campus of University of Texas in Austin on Saturday.
The groups will "take to the streets armed with rifles and pistols on display followed by a crisis performance," according to a press release posted on Facebook.

Two men took their dispute outside a Michigan toy store to settle the argument with firearms.
An employee at Toys R Us in Flint Township said she heard multiple gunshots about 5 p.m. Monday while working the cash register, reported MLive.
I heard the gunshots. It was about three or four of them. One of the managers came to the door and was, like, Theyre shooting. Lock the store down,' said cashier Tequila Roberson. It basically happened in front of my register from the outside.

Thank God the "good guys with guns" didn't kill any innocent bystanders in the parking lot with a stray bullet...this time.
