Officials in texas Say Supreme CourtJustice Antonin Scalia died of natural causes. The 79yearold was found unresponsive saturday at a resort in west texas. Officials determined he died from a heart attack. And say an autopsy will not be performed. A private plane carrying scalias body left texas last night for virginia, where scalia will be buried. A bitter battle is brewing over when to replace the leading conservative on americas most powerful court. President obama says he intends to nominate a successor for justice scalia. But as cnns ryan nobles explains republicans are already putting up roadblocks. A moment of silence for justice scalia. It did not take long for the death of Supreme CourtJustice Antinon Scalia to get political in the republican president ial primary i think it is up to Mitch Mcconnell and everybody else to stop it. Its called delay, delay delay. One by one the gop candidates payed homage to the conservative lion and predicted that any obama nominee to replace him would be unsuccessful. There is no doubt in my mind that barack obama will not have a consensus pick when he submits that person to the senate. But president obama is pushing forward. Promising to nominate someone quickly and warning Senate Republicans to not play politics with the court. There will be plenty of time for mine for me to do so and plenty of time for the senate to fulfill its responsibility to give that person a fair hearing and timely vote. These are responsibilities that seriously as should everyone. Senate majority leader Mitch Mcconnell called on the president to wait. And leave the decision in the hands of the voters and the winner of the race for the white house. Rank and file republicans like Linsdey Graham said any obama nominee will have a rough time being confirmed. The practical consequence is that no one will be appointed that is not a consensus choice, and as the president and Senate Leaders squabble it will be against the backdrop of an increasingly divisive president ial election. Elections have consequences. Hillary clinton rushed to support obamas right to pick republicans in the senate and on the campaign trail have already pledged to blblk any replacement that constitutionalists to the court. With the future of the Supreme Court and the white house in the balance. That was ryan nobles reporting. Well have much more on Justice Scalias death ahead this morning on sunrise.

To pimp a butterfly is on the top of almost every critics lists. Expects lamar to win multiple times, especially in rap categories. But to miss out on the nights biggest prize. I dont see how taylor swifts 1989 could not win album of the year. Nats 1989 sold more than 5 million copies. And spawned 5 hits. Including bad blood, which had lamar as a featured presence. If people are voting along the line of commercial success and industry influence, taylor has it made, because like, that album dominated.
