Your Virtual Front Page, Thursday, June 27, 2013

A bit late in the day, but here goes:

  1. Senate approves bill to overhaul immigration (WashPost) — That’s one miracle, comprehensive immigration reform getting through the Senate. Now we need a bigger one for the House to pass anything remotely like it.
  2. Boston Bombing Suspect Is Indicted on 30 Counts (NYT) — He’s charged in four deaths, including that of the police officer.
  3. View of what Bull Street neighborhood might look like emerges (thestate,com) — The story says “What the proposed Bull Street neighborhood might look like became a litter clearer Thursday…” Presumably that will be fixed in the print version.
  4. Obama rules out barter for Snowden (BBC) — He also says, “I am not going to be scrambling jets to get a 29-year-old hacker.” Which is a pretty good line. Meanwhile, The Guardian is still acting like what Snowden has to disclose is a big freaking deal, playing it above all actual news in the world.
  5. Live: Results of Senate votes on Haley vetoes (thestate.com) — I can’t tell whether they’re still at it or not…
  6. Voyager 1 is still in the sun’s embrace (WashPost) — Meanwhile, in news from the outskirts of our solar system…

    Obama DESPERATELY wants an immigration bill to sign on July 4th. It will be a classic dog-and-pony show.

    It’s all a sham. There’s no chance many illegals will fork over the thousands of dollars in back taxes they owe (yes, the OWE taxes for any income they have earned while here).

    I don’t think it will happen, though. Boehner has been cut off at the knees.
