USA Network's Mr. Robot's Season Finale Delayed a Week Because of Today's Shooting

“The previously filmed season finale of Mr. Robot contains a graphic scene similar in nature to today’s tragic events in Virginia,” reads an official statement from USA. “Out of respect to the victims, their families and colleagues, and our viewers, we are postponing tonight’s episode. Our thoughts go out to all those affected during this difficult time.”

On Edit:

This is a great show, and I'm a little surprised that it does not get as much discussion on DU as it deserves.

Bernie just does not get it. He simply does not get it.

Bigots are going to tune out your economic message for the simple reason that ALL Americans would benefit. They don't want that. They don't want Single Payer, free college tuition, more infrastructure spending, etc. if it means that non-White people will get them too.

Bigots don't care about income inequality. That's why they say things like Trump, a billionaire, is one of them. Meaning, HE'S WHITE.

They would rather live in poverty with no healthcare, no education, no jobs, a bad environment so long as Blacks and Latinos have less than them.

Jeb was terrible. An empty suit.

Had nothing compelling to say. Didn't look presidential at all. Acted like he was entitled to the nomination. Reminds me of the rich kids in class who never really tried.

CNN: Could Koch brothers take out Donald Trump?


Donald Trump wasn't invited to address some 450 top conservative donors who gathered here at a lush oceanfront hotel for a policy-focused retreat hosted by the Koch brothers and their powerful political network.

So the real estate magnate turned to Twitter on Sunday to mock rivals -- former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and former Hewlett Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina -- who were given entrée to potential backers at the luxurious gathering.

"I wish good luck to all of the Republican candidates that traveled to California to beg for money etc. from the Koch Brothers," Trump tweeted Sunday. "Puppets?"
