Opinion:
SUMMARY ORDER
Pro se plaintiff Miankanze Bamba appeals from the dismissal of his amended complaint raising claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971), pursuant to Fed. R.Civ.P. 12(b)(1), 12(b)(2), and 12(b)(6). We assume the parties' familiarity with the underlying facts, the procedural history of the case, and the issues on appeal.
When reviewing the dismissal of a complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction or lack of personal jurisdiction, we review factual findings for clear error and legal conclusions de novo. See Marvel Characters, Inc. v. Kirby, 726 F.3d 119, 128 (2d Cir.2013) (personal jurisdiction); Liranzo v. United States, 690 F.3d 78, 84 (2d Cir.2012) (subject matter jurisdiction). We review de novo the dismissal of the complaint pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6), accepting the complaint's factual allegations as true and drawing all reasonable inferences in plaintiffs favor. See Famous Horse Inc. v. 5th Ave. Photo Inc., 624 F.3d 106, 108 (2d Cir.2010). While pro se complaints must contain sufficient factual allegations to meet the plausibility standard, see Harris v. Mills, 572 F.3d 66, 71-72 (2d Cir.2009), we are obliged to construe a pro se complaint liberally "to raise the strongest arguments [it] suggest[s]," Walker v. Schult, 717 F.3d 119, 124 (2d Cir.2013) (alterations in original; internal quotation marks omitted). Here, an independent review of the record and relevant case law reveals that the district court properly dismissed Bamba's claims. Thus, we affirm for substantially the same reasons stated by the district court in its thorough July 24, 2012 decision.
We have considered all of Bamba's arguments and find them to be without merit. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court. Furthermore, we GRANT defendants' motion to strike Bam-ba's extra-record material, and we DENY Bamba's motion for permission to file a sur-reply in opposition to defendants' motion to strike extra-record material.
