[Daily Caller] WASHINGTON, D.C.‐Former Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos told Tucker Carlson on Tuesday that he suspects the Obama administration spied on other 2016 presidential primary campaigns.
Papadopoulos, whose meeting with Australian diplomat Alexander Downer was used to open the FBI’s July 31, 2016 counterintelligence probe, says he believes he was being monitored long before he joined the Trump campaign.
"In November of 2015, upon the same month that I was going to the Ben Carson campaign‐because people forget that I was on Carson’s campaign before I joined Trump’s campaign‐I was living in London and I had been approached by high-level State Department officials and even the CIA in London," Papadopoulos said.

He continued, "They invited me to the U.S. embassy to meet with me and to basically probe me and to get to know why I’m joining the Ben Carson campaign and what the Ben Carson campaign was really all about. And the man who invited me was David Kovatch, who still works at the U.S. embassy in London. I think he’s directing the Energy Department over there. So clearly, by November 2015, I don’t think that Trump’s campaign was the only one that was under surveillance, quite frankly."
277 pages of newly released FBI files related to Hillary Clinton hit the Internet on Tuesday, although the Bureau hasn't placed the file on its FOIA page yet
The IT expert who set up Clinton's private email server told the FBI that supposedly 'secure' rooms in the Clintons' homes were sometimes left open
He said the same was true about safes inside the facilities, which are intended to be hardened against unwanted visitors and electronic signals
The files reveal that Clinton's aides at one point 'lost most of' the emails related to her private server as she transitioned out of the State Department
Server contained hundreds of classified documents and was a regular target for foreign hackers; Huma Abedin emailed an 'omg' at news of one of them in 2011
Files also reveal that the FBI lost its notes of a 2015 meeting with the Intelligence Community Inspector General on an unspecified Clinton-linked topic

"At what point did you actively decide to subvert the FOIA Act? Or is your defense that you are too incompetent to have ever worked in the government?"
[NJ2AS] The Attorney General of New Jersey responded to the United States Supreme Court's demand to provide a response justifying New Jersey's draconian "justifiable need" requirement. NJ responded to the Supreme Court on the last day of the deadline about why they should not strike down New Jersey's may-issue laws. So far it is a hoot. Apparently NJ doesn’t completely ban carry because police officers and military members are allowed to carry WHILE ON DUTY.
According to Attorney General Grewal the "justifiable need" standard does not violate the Constitution because government agents are allowed to carry firearms while on duty and it is hypothetically possible for someone to get a carry permit so it is ok. New Jersey has a population of 9,000,000 and issued approximately 1,200 permits in 2017. Our undercover investigations exposed that every single police department we visited turned us down when we attempted to apply for a conceal carry permit because it is only available to armed guards, judges, politicians, and their friends.

The entire intent of the 2nd amendment is for people to be armed so they can fight the government if they get out of control. This reads like only the government can carry while on duty. This is the polar opposite of the intent of the second amendment....

[Free Beacon] New Jersey senator Cory Booker (D.) announced a slate of new gun bans and gun-control measures on Monday in his race to win the Democratic presidential nomination for 2020.
In what amounts to a collection of the strictest gun-control policies instituted in deep blue states over the past several decades, Booker's proposals span from outright bans on certain guns to requiring the implementation of theoretical technology. He wants to require federal licensing of all gun owners, limit how many firearms Americans can buy, and direct the IRS to investigate the National Rifle Association.
"Cory's plan is the most sweeping gun violence prevention proposal ever advanced by a presidential candidate. To make justice a reality for all, we have to end the epidemic of gun violence and invest in communities that have been shattered by the trauma left in its wake. To do that, we need to adopt a plan that introduces aggressive gun safety measures ‐ the most forward-leaning this country has ever seen," a release from Booker's campaign said. "Cory's plan would: Keep guns out of the wrong hands. Hold gun manufacturers accountable. Bring the fight to the NRA."

Sure thing snortacus.
Yeah, usually everyone and the food channel weigh in after a shooting at a school, wondered why I didn't hear anything about it until late last night, and then at the water hole and not from the tv.

I hate these silly headlines. It makes it sound like he has already banned guns and introduced gun control measures. Nope. He has announced that he intends to once (if, very much if) he becomes president. Headlines do matter. A lot of people only scan the articles at best, then move on.
