President . Mr. Scalise weve got to lay out the case for just what is at stake in this election. I think it has become more clear what is at stake. If you want a balanced federal budget, electing a republican president is the only way to do it, because on the democrat side, Bernie Sanders is talking about everything being free for everybody. That was obamacare. That did not work out that well. Hillary clinton is agreeing with that. Thats not going to work out well. If you want to save medicare from bankruptcy, we have a plan for that. They do not have a plan for it. If you want to know the direction of the Supreme Court, just go no further than the people running for president to see what that direction would be. The country is going to decide this. The people of america are going to decide this, but we are going to continue to show just what is at stake and there is everything on the line, from the direction of the legislative branch, the executive branch, and the judicial branch.

Burwell. The Little Sisters of the poor and their copetitioners faced a dilemma that the religious freedom restoration act is not allowed. They can in here to their religious beliefs and pay millions of dollars in taketies, or, they can steps that they believed to be are morally and religiously objectionable, that the government believes it is necessary for them to provide contraception coverage through their Health Care Plans. Thegovernment concedes sincerity of these religious beliefs, but attempts to recast them as an objection to the very act of opting out. With all due respect, that is simply and demonstrably not true. Can you explain to me, the many of them felt that general believe they were pacifists, that if they pacifists, that would mean other people would serve for them. They were going to jail and many of them were going to jail. Jail lessng to important to some . Or less important than paying a financial penalty . I dont think it is, but let me sick to the Conscientious O

One and only prince. Rarely does a musician cross so many cultural lines. That is his essence and the magic of prince. Take a look, a purple glow across the bay area. San Francisco City hall lit up to honor prince. He recorded his first album in the late 1990s. He shattered all musical boundaries. We celebrate prince today. Like her listeners, she is having a tough time dealing with the loss of a music legend. I was hoping that it was a rumor. I was hoping that prince would call a controversy. But she had to break the news on the air this morning that musical genius, prince was gone. That was hard, because im a fan and i was trying to not break down. I was trying to be professional and tell everyone what was going on. What is tougher, she just saw him during his recent visit in the bay area. She went to his shows. And i got to meet prince. I got to shake his hand and we talked about music and we talked about rhythm. Princes visit also included a warriors game, where he had courtside se
