Sunday Morning Bobblehead Thread
June 19, 2016

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads, Step-Dads, and Do-Dads (a catch-all for anyone being a father figure by doing) out there in C&L land!

And shout out to Hal Boedeker, TV guy at the Orlando Sentinel. Hal reliably reports on the guests and content of the Sunday shows consistently every week. Given that his city has had the most painful week of all, I wanted to say thanks, Hal, for what you do, and wishing you and your fine city peace and healing.

Here's the line up for this morning:

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch does a Full Ginsburg, discussing the Orlando Shooting.

ABC's This Week: Lynch, and House Homeland Security Committee Chair Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas. Jonathan Karl speaks with Donald Trump on the campaign trail on his response to Orlando.

Plus, the Powerhouse Roundtable has staff writer for The Atlantic Molly Ball, ABC News contributor and ESPN senior writer LZ Granderson, National Review editor Rich Lowry, and Republican strategist and pollster Kristen Soltis Anderson.

Gotta wonder if Putin will endorse Trump this morning. Not entirely kidding.
