President Barack Obama has been briefed by his homeland security and counterterrorism adviser about the shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando that left about 20 people dead and 42 wounded.

The White House said Sunday, several hours after the incident, that Obama has been briefed and has asked for regular updates as the FBI and other federal officials work with Orlando police on the case.

Press secretary Josh Earnest said in a statement that the president has directed federal officials to provide "any necessary assistance to pursue the investigation and support the community."

Just into our newsroom – this image of the Orlando perpetrator found in a recent food ad for islam approved meals during ramalamadingdong. The White House has just announced that this individual was a Trump supporter. President Obama has cancelled his golf game for today and will immediately fly to Florida to console the shooters family.

No It’s time to round up the Muslims in America and help them expose the radicals in their midst...that means any and all Imams who preach hate about America. If Muslims won't/can't because of threats to their families...then Law enforcement will track down those Muslims and deport them IF they haven't broken a law....otherwise.......

The Real Estate industry need to stop selling land to Muslim organizations...you don't aid your enemy...we are still the jihadists in our own country....to heck with that!

Orlando PD Chief John Mina visited Obama about 6 weeks ago.

Seems like the jihadist’s name and family info was released fairly quickly—suggests he was already known to the Authorities-—while Grimmie’s shooter’s ID was withheld and background info almost nonexistent.

But on the bright side—this one can’t be pinned on “right wing Christians.”

At first glance, I thought it was “The Late President Obama”. Then my eyes focused.

“President Barack Obama has been briefed by his homeland security and counterterrorism adviser about the shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando that left about 20 people dead and 42 wounded”

How long until Obummer lectures us not to jump to any conclusions?

You can be sure that Hillary and Obama are looking a way to exploit this tragedy for political purposes. Yes, by nightfall they will turn this on Trump. A complicit media will run with it.

Muslims trump gays. They’re at the top of the political correctness tree.

They’re being defended on DU and it’s classified as a hate crime, NOT islamic terrorism.

The last thing a liberal will say, before their head is cut off is, “But I’m on your side”.

Obama was warned that releasing Moslem terrorists from Guantanamo would cause more terrorist attacks.

But, he thinks that he’s smarter than the rest of the world combined, so he released terrorists.

This attack is the foreseeable result of Obama’s actions.

This massacre belongs to Obama.

Recall all the Predator Drones Obama tasked to watch out for Right Wing terrorism

Overhaul all the A-10s that Obama wanted to scrap

Promise every soldier their personal oil well at the end of the day

Lock the journowhores in a freight container, and stay the hell out of the US Armed Forces' way.

I wonder if he is eating during sun up hours?

If so he should visit northern Alaska soon, sun stays above the horizon above the Arctic Circle for something like 37 straight days.
