From The Political Insider Facebook page (LIVE):
If schools are mandated to be gun free zones, violence and danger are given an open invitation to enter. Almost all school shootings are in gun free zones. Cowards will only go where there is no deterrent!

Very strong improvement and strengthening of background checks will be fully backed by White House. Legislation moving forward. Bump Stocks will soon be out. Highly trained expert teachers will be allowed to conceal carry, subject to State Law. Armed guards OK, deterrent!…….

….On 18 to 21 Age Limits, watching court cases and rulings before acting. States are making this decision. Things are moving rapidly on this, but not much political support (to put it mildly).

As The Wall Street Journal reports:
The former adult-movie star who accepted $130,000 from President Donald Trump’s lawyer would return the money in exchange for being released from a contract barring her from discussing an alleged sexual encounter with Mr. Trump, according to a letter from her attorney.
The letter Monday to Trump attorney Michael Cohen said Stephanie Clifford, the former actress, would pay Mr. Trump the money by Friday if he and Mr. Cohen agree to end the contract, halt an arbitration proceeding against her and allow Ms. Clifford to speak “openly and freely about her prior relationship with the President and attempts to silence her.”
Mr. Cohen and his attorney, Lawrence S. Rosen, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on the letter from the lawyer for Ms. Clifford, known professionally as Stormy Daniels.
The White House couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.
Previously, the White House has denied any sexual relationship between Mr. Trump and Ms. Clifford and refused to answer questions about the nondisclosure agreement.
In the letter, Ms. Clifford’s attorney, Michael Avenatti, said she would wire the money to an account designated by Mr. Trump if the settlement offer is accepted. The letter was first reported by the New York Times.
As part of any new deal, Mr. Trump and Essential Consultants LLC—the Delaware corporation Mr. Cohen formed to make the $130,000 payment–wouldn’t take any action to prevent a recent 60 Minutes interview with Ms. Clifford from airing, according to the letter.
If the Messrs. Trump and Cohen accept the deal, Ms. Clifford would drop a lawsuit filed last week against Mr. Trump, seeking to declare the nondisclosure agreement invalid because Mr. Trump didn’t sign it, the letter says.
The Wall Street Journal in January reported that Mr. Cohen had paid Ms. Clifford $130,000 in October 2016, shortly before the presidential election, in exchange for her signing a nondisclosure agreement about her allegations of a sexual encounter with Mr. Trump in 2006.
