GOP Blocks Bill to Stop people on NO FLY LIST from buying guns legally

Senate Republicans on Thursday rejected an amendment to the ObamaCare repeal bill that would have tied it to a separate fight on blocking suspected or known terrorists from being able to buy guns. 
Senators voted 45-54 on procedural hurdle for the measure from Sen. Dianne Feinstein. 
 
The California Democrat's proposal, which she has also introduced as a separate piece of legislation, would allow the attorney general to block the sale or transfer of a gun or explosive to a suspected or known terrorist if the individual is believed to use the weapons in an act of terrorism.
