director james b comey on the investigation into hillary clinton s personal email system as released by the f b i good morning i m here to give you an update on the f b i s investigation of secretary clinton s use of a personal email system during her time as secretary of state after a tremendous amount of work over the last year the f b i is completing its investigation and referring the case to the department of justice for a prosecutive decision what i would like to do today is tell you three things what we did what we found and what we are recommending to the department of justice this will be an unusual statement in at least a couple ways first i am going to include more detail about our process than i ordinarily would because i think the american people deserve those details in a case of intense public interest second i have not coordinated or reviewed this statement in any way with the department of justice or any other part of the government they do not know what i am about to say i want to start by thanking the f b i employees who did remarkable work in this case once you have a better sense of how much we have done you will understand why i am so grateful and proud of their efforts so first what we have done the investigation began as a referral from the intelligence community inspector general in connection with secretary clinton s use of a personal email server during her time as secretary of state the referral focused on whether classified information was transmitted on that personal system our investigation looked at whether there is evidence classified information was improperly stored or transmitted on that personal system in violation of a federal statute making it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way or a second statute making it a misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from appropriate systems or storage facilities consistent with our counterintelligence responsibilities we have also investigated to determine whether there is evidence of computer intrusion in connection with the personal email server by any foreign power or other hostile actors i have so far used the singular term email server in describing the referral that began our investigation it turns out to have been more complicated than that secretary clinton used several different servers and administrators of those servers during her four years at the state department and used numerous mobile devices to view and send email on that personal domain as new servers and equipment were employed older servers were taken out of service stored and decommissioned in various ways piecing all of that back together to gain as full an understanding as possible of the ways in which personal email was used for government work has been a painstaking undertaking requiring thousands of hours of effort for example when one of secretary clinton s original personal servers was decommissioned in the email software was removed doing that didn t remove the email content but it was like removing the frame from a huge finished jigsaw puzzle and dumping the pieces on the floor the effect was that millions of email fragments end up unsorted in the server s unused or slack space we searched through all of it to see what was there and what parts of the puzzle could be put back together f b i investigators have also read all of the approximately emails provided by secretary clinton to the state department in december where an email was assessed as possibly containing classified information the f b i referred the email to any u s government agency that was a likely owner of information in the email so that agency could make a determination as to whether the email contained classified information at the time it was sent or received or whether there was reason to classify the email now even if its content was not classified at the time it was sent that is the process sometimes referred to as from the group of emails returned to the state department emails in email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received eight of those chains contained information that was top secret at the time they were sent chains contained secret information at the time and eight contained confidential information which is the lowest level of classification separate from those about additional emails were to make them confidential the information in those had not been classified at the time the emails were sent the f b i also discovered several thousand emails that were not in the group of that were returned by secretary clinton to state in we found those additional emails in a variety of ways some had been deleted over the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or were connected to the private email domain others we found by reviewing the archived government email accounts of people who had been government employees at the same time as secretary clinton including officials at other agencies people with whom a secretary of state might naturally correspond this helped us recover emails that were not among the produced to state still others we recovered from the laborious review of the millions of email fragments dumped into the slack space of the server decommissioned in with respect to the thousands of emails we found that were not among those produced to state agencies have concluded that three of those were classified at the time they were sent or received one at the secret level and two at the confidential level there were no additional top secret emails found finally none of those we found have since been i should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional emails were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them our assessment is that like many email users secretary clinton periodically deleted emails or emails were purged from the system when devices were changed because she was not using a government account or even a commercial account like gmail there was no archiving at all of her emails so it is not surprising that we discovered emails that were not on secretary clinton s system in when she produced the emails to the state department it could also be that some of the additional emails we recovered were among those deleted as personal by secretary clinton s lawyers when they reviewed and sorted her emails for production in the lawyers doing the sorting for secretary clinton in did not individually read the content of all of her emails as we did for those available to us instead they relied on header information and used search terms to try to find all emails among the reportedly more than total emails remaining on secretary clinton s personal system in it is highly likely their search terms missed some emails and that we later found them for example in the mailboxes of other officials or in the slack space of a server it is also likely that there are other emails that they did not produce to state and that we did not find elsewhere and that are now gone because they deleted all emails they did not return to state and the lawyers cleaned their devices in such a way as to preclude complete forensic recovery we have conducted interviews and done technical examination to attempt to understand how that sorting was done by her attorneys although we do not have complete visibility because we are not able to fully reconstruct the electronic record of that sorting we believe our investigation has been sufficient to give us reasonable confidence there was no intentional misconduct in connection with that sorting effort and of course in addition to our technical work we interviewed many people from those involved in setting up and maintaining the various iterations of secretary clinton s personal server to staff members with whom she corresponded on email to those involved in the email production to state and finally secretary clinton herself last we have done extensive work to understand what indications there might be of compromise by hostile actors in connection with the personal email operation that s what we have done now let me tell you what we found although we did not find clear evidence that secretary clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive highly classified information for example seven email chains concern matters that were classified at the top access program level when they were sent and received these chains involved secretary clinton both sending emails about those matters and receiving emails from others about the same matters there is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in secretary clinton s position or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation in addition to this highly sensitive information we also found information that was properly classified as secret by the u s intelligence community at the time it was discussed on email that is excluding the later emails none of these emails should have been on any kind of unclassified system but their presence is especially concerning because all of these emails were housed on unclassified personal servers not even supported by security staff like those found at departments and agencies of the u s government or even with a commercial service like gmail separately it is important to say something about the marking of classified information only a very small number of the emails containing classified information bore markings indicating the presence of classified information but even if information is not marked classified in an email participants who know or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it while not the focus of our investigation we also developed evidence that the security culture of the state department in general and with respect to use of unclassified email systems in particular was generally lacking in the kind of care for classified information found elsewhere in the government with respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors we did not find direct evidence that secretary clinton s personal email domain in its various configurations since was successfully hacked but given the nature of the system and of the actors potentially involved we assess that we would be unlikely to see such direct evidence we do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial email accounts of people with whom secretary clinton was in regular contact from her personal account we also assess that secretary clinton s use of a personal email domain was both known by a large number of people and readily apparent she also used her personal email extensively while outside the united states including sending and receiving emails in the territory of sophisticated adversaries given that combination of factors we assess it is possible that hostile actors gained access to secretary clinton s personal email account so that s what we found finally with respect to our recommendation to the department of justice in our system the prosecutors make the decisions about whether charges are appropriate based on evidence the f b i has helped collect although we don t normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors we frequently make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors about what resolution may be appropriate given the evidence in this case given the importance of the matter i think unusual transparency is in order although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of factors before bringing charges there are obvious considerations like the strength of the evidence especially regarding intent responsible decisions also consider the context of a person s actions and how similar situations have been handled in the past in looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of classified information we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts all the cases prosecuted involved some combination of clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information or vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of intentional misconduct or indications of disloyalty to the united states or efforts to obstruct justice we do not see those things here to be clear this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences to the contrary those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions but that is not what we are deciding now as a result although the department of justice makes final decisions on matters like this we are expressing to justice our view that no charges are appropriate in this case i know there will be intense public debate in the wake of this recommendation as there was throughout this investigation what i can assure the american people is that this investigation was done competently honestly and independently no outside influence of any kind was brought to bear i know there were many opinions expressed by people who were not part of the investigation including people in government but none of that mattered to us opinions are irrelevant and they were all uninformed by insight into our investigation because we did the investigation the right way only facts matter and the f b i found them here in an entirely apolitical and professional way i couldn t be prouder to be part of this organization

the surface in presidential politics until something or someone pushes them to the surface that something early in this cycle is indiana s religious freedom restoration act which republican gov mike pence who is considering a run for president in signed into law last week it has caused a firestorm of criticism from those who say the law could lead to discrimination against gays and lesbians including businesses like apple and angie s list the ncaa which is hosting the men s college basketball final four in indianapolis and even other states like connecticut which banned state paid travel to indiana pence seemed surprised by the backlash and has had some difficulty explaining his position other potential candidates have leapt to his defense and some like florida sen marco rubio went further than the indiana governor supporters say indiana s law is similar to the federal religious freedom restoration act passed in as is often the case in controversies however the facts have become muddled and conflated so what are the facts how are the two laws different and how have politics on both sides shaped the response seeking clarification and a fix as the contenders weigh in on tuesday pence said there has been misunderstanding and confusion and mischaracterization of this law but he said he is seeking clarification and a fix to the law with legislation that makes it clear that this law does not give businesses a right to deny services to anyone on monday though the law became part of the presidential campaign with republican presidential candidates weighing in after a sunday show performance from pence that raised more questions pence sidestepped half a dozen specific questions about whether the law could lead to discrimination against gays and lesbians former florida gov jeb bush contended that facts had not been established and once they are people aren t going to see this as discriminatory at all wisconsin gov scott walker backed the law and said through a spokesman that it was about the right for americans to exercise their religion and act on their conscience texas sen ted cruz said the law is giving voice to millions of courageous conservatives rubio though did something the other candidates did not he more directly addressed the charge that businesses could discriminate against gay and lesbian couples gay rights advocates for example say if a gay or lesbian couple wanted a flower arrangement or cake for a reception a florist or caterer could lawfully choose not to fill the order if he has a religious objection rubio said he thinks businesses should have that right the issue we re talking about here is should someone who provides a professional service be punished by the law because they refused to provide that professional service to a ceremony that they believe is in violation of their faith he said on fox news monday i think people have a right to live out their religious faith in their own lives most conservatives including pence have mostly not addressed that charge head on instead they say the law is unfairly maligned after all other states have similar laws and even democrat bill clinton signed a federal religious freedom restoration act into law as president hillary clinton for the record tweeted sad this new indiana law can happen in america today we shouldn t discriminate against ppl bc of who they love the white house on tuesday blasted pence and others who falsely suggest the two laws indiana s and the federal one are the same that is not true white house press secretary josh earnest said at the white house daily briefing he cited the spirit of the law as well as the text he said the law was an effort to protect the religious liberty of religious minorities based on actions that could be taken by the federal government on the other hand the indiana law is much broader earnest continued it doesn t just apply to individuals or religious minorities it applies to and i m quoting here a partnership a limited liability company a corporation a company a firm a society a joint stock company or an unincorporated association so this obviously is a significant expansion of the law in terms of the way that it would apply his is a much more open ended piece of legislation that could reasonably be used to try to justify discriminating against somebody because of who they love first let s start with how and why the law came to be the federal law stemmed from an oregon native american man who lost his job in after testing positive for drugs he had used peyote as part of a religious ritual the fix to that problem became the federal rfra introduced by soon to be senate minority leader chuck schumer then a house member from new york a companion bill passed the senate and was introduced by the late sen ted kennedy nineteen states in addition to indiana have since enacted their own rfras but as the atlantic notes just south carolina and texas have similar variations to indiana s and neither seems to go quite as far indiana vs federal law what do they say the federal rfra states that government shall not substantially burden a person s exercise of religion even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability the indiana law also states a governmental entity may not substantially burden a person s exercise of religion even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability that is the federal law states except when it is in furtherance of a compelling governmental interest and is the least restrictive means of furthering that compelling governmental interest indiana also states the exception as is in furtherance of a compelling governmental interest and is the least restrictive means of furthering that compelling governmental interest but that s where the similarities end the federal law does not go so far as to define a person indiana s law does and a person by its standard is not what you might think section of the indiana code includes people churches and corporations in that definition as related to whether why or who can sue the federal law says the indiana law goes further in section it states that a person in this case meaning an individual church limited liability company etc whose exercise of religion has been substantially burdened or is likely to be substantially burdened by a violation of this chapter may assert the violation or impending violation as a claim or defense in a judicial or administrative proceeding regardless of whether the state or any other governmental entity is a party to the proceeding so in other words while the federal law states that a person can sue the government for a grievance indiana makes a point of stating that it doesn t matter if government is involved josh blackman a constitutional law professor at south texas college notes in national review that while some read the federal provision as pertaining only to government it has actually split federal courts private parties he points out had brought suits against corporations for example he d c circuit held that the catholic university of america could raise rfra as a defense against a sex discrimination claim brought by a nun and the equal employment opportunity commission alike that said the indiana law explicitly wipes away any ambiguity support for gay rights has increased dramatically over the past decade since former president george w bush proposed a ban on same sex marriage during his presidential re election campaign support for same sex marriage has reversed in a majority of the country percent was against it while percent was in favor according to gallup now it s exactly the opposite with percent saying they re in favor of same sex marriage and percent saying they re against it what s more in percent said gay or lesbian relations were morally wrong in percent said it was morally acceptable while just percent said it was wrong that is a huge cultural and political shift in a relatively short time it s something republican pollster whit ayres likens to approval of interracial marriage in the to in his book and beyond how republicans can elect a president in the new america he points out citing gallup numbers that in some percent of americans disapproved of interracial marriage twenty five years later percent approved with the lines crossing when the country split about evenly in it looks similar to gay marriage ayres told reporters at a breakfast meeting tuesday sponsored by the christian science monitor the values of young people i believe this is where we are headed as a country he added we are headed to where a political candidate who is perceived as anti gay will never connect with people under years old but going inside the numbers helps explain why both sides are singing very different tunes on the indiana law for example gallup found that in democrats are in favor of same sex marriage as were almost percent of independents but the opposite was true for republicans with percent opposed as of that makes it difficult to get through a republican primary being too strongly in favor of gay rights with a significant portion of the base considering themselves social values religious voters that s a challenge said ayres who is advising rubio he points out that republicans under support same sex marriage a pew poll in in fact found percent of young republicans in favor so while times are changing with republicans on gay rights they are doing so more slowly than the more rapid change taking place in the country at large

know the answer to that question tuesday night s debate featured a master class on lying from the lying liar who lies about her lies former secretary of state hillary clinton she spoke for approximately minutes and aside from her opening statement i m hillary clinton virtually every word that exited her mouth was untrue but because hillary appeared to be lady with mild socialist depression in a full blown socialist insane asylum nobody laid a glove on her thus it is left to us to debunk her various obfuscations and untruths here we go i have spent a very long time my entire adult life looking for ways to find the ways for each child to live up to his or her god given potential well unless you re an unborn child then get ready for a trip down the sink yes finally fathers will be able to say to their daughters you too can grow up to be president technically you ll have to marry a president first however actually i have been very consistent anderson cooper asked hillary about her shifting positions on issues ranging from the iraq war to same sex marriage to the trans pacific partnership she then dropped that whopper hillary has been one of the least consistent major party candidates in american history she then dropped a series of lies about her own positional changes and then she finally concluded that she had a range of views but they are rooted in my values and my experience those values are becoming president and her experience is reading the polls i did say when i was secretary of state three years ago that i hoped it would be the gold standard it was just finally negotiated last week and in looking at it it didn t meet my standards this is plainly untrue here s what she said in about the tpp this tpp sets the gold standard in trade agreements to open free transparent fair trade the kind of environment that has the rule of law and a level playing field she didn t hope it would be the gold standard it was the gold standard naturally politifact labeled this statement half true that means it s a huge glaring lie i m a progressive but i m a progressive who likes to get things done how to find common ground and i have proved that in every position that i ve had even dealing with republicans who never had a good word to say about me honestly nope as senator from new york hillary accomplished virtually nothing her name was attached to exactly zero legislation her only major impact on policy came in the form of hillarycare which drove republicans to massive electoral victory in when i think about capitalism i think about all the small businesses that were started the media drooled over the exchange between hillary and bernie over capitalism but there is no distinction between the economic philosophy of sen bernie sanders and that of hillary clinton she said she wanted to use government to force companies to share profits with the workers a line straight from the marxist playbook she said she wanted the wealthy to pay their fair share which meant everything she said she wanted paid family leave universal college tuition availability and a bevy of other free goodies it was pretty straightforward to me that was going to give immunity to the only industry in america everybody else has to be accountable but not the gun manufacturers there is no special immunity for gun manufacturers the protection of lawful commerce in arms act of was designed to prevent ultra leftist jurisdictions from twisting tort law to make gun manufacturers liable for public nuisance in the way that manufacturers are liable for their pollution the law does not stop lawsuits against manufacturers or dealers from being sued if they knowingly sell a product to a criminal they can still be sued for design flaws or negligence well first of all we got a lot of business done with the russians when medvedev was the president and not putin there s no doubt that when putin came back in and said he was going to be president that did change the relationship nonsense putin was always the leader of russia even when medvedev was his puppet hillary knew putin ran the country when medvedev was president medvedev for example was president when russia invaded georgia in hillary handed the russians a reset button anyway hillary also advocated for taking on bashar assad the same man she once called a reformer i think while you re talking about the tough decision that president obama had to make about osama bin laden where i was one of his few advisers or putting together that coalition to impose sanctions on iran glomming onto the kill of osama bin laden in order to explain her vote for the iraq war was simply nonsensical but the idea that she put together the coalition to impose sanctions on iran is simply untrue international sanctions against iran have been on the books for decades and hillary was integrally involved in negotiating the end of those sanctions as well as letting iran enrich uranium we had a murderous dictator gadhafi who had american blood on his hands as i m sure you remember threatening to massacre large numbers of the libyan people our response which i think was smart power at its best is that the united states will not lead this hillary reportedly manufactured the libyan genocide story out of wholecloth and overrode us intelligence in order to push that narrative if libya was smart power at its best it would be incredible to find out what smart power at its worst would be well other than syria ukraine iran libya became a haven for terrorists because we deposed a dictator who posed no threat to us the notion that iraq was a disaster area of american foreign policy but libya is a great success story is patently insane hillary s lies about libya didn t end there i ll get to that hillary said this with regard to benghazi she never did of course her response mirrored her response in benghazi by the way i ll get back to that she said to our libyan staff then proceeded to do nothing i think it has to be continued threat from the spread of nuclear weapons nuclear material that can fall into the wrong hands i know the terrorists are constantly seeking it and that s why we have to stay vigilant but also united around the world to prevent that hillary said the spread of nuclear weapons represented the chief threat to the united states she also negotiated the iran nuclear deal the statement that people around the world are united to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons is a plain lie given the acceptance of the iran deal which makes iranian nuclear development inevitable well i ve taken responsibility for it i did say it was a mistake what i did was allowed by the state department but it wasn t the best choice and i have been as transparent as i know to be turning over pages of my e mails asking that they be made public and you re right i am going to be testifying i ve been asking to testify for some time and to do it in public which was not originally agreed to lies lies and more lies she did not take responsibility for her email scandal any more than she took responsibility for benghazi she said she took responsibility but never admitted to having done anything wrong her email scheme was not allowed by federal law but she was the head of the state department and thus waived rules for herself she may have been as transparent as she knows how to be but that transparency involved setting up a private server loading it with classified information and then deleting some emails she only asked to testify after congress demanded she testify fortunately none of this mattered since bernie sanders intervened to hand her his testicles in a jar by saying nobody cared about her emails this inequality challenge we face we have faced it at other points it s absolutely right it hasn t been this bad since the but if you look at the republicans versus the democrats when it comes to economic policy there is no comparison the economy does better when you have a democrat in the white house and that s why we need to have a democrat in the white house in january if democrats are so great at economics why is inequality as bad as it has been in a century and saying that democratic presidents preside over good economies seems to neglect the fact that bill clinton for example presided over a republican congress we have to deal with the problem that the banks are still too big to fail we can never let the american taxpayer and middle class families ever have to bail out the kind of speculative behavior that we saw in this debate hillary clinton also backed dodd frank which legally enshrines too big to fail bailouts are now mandated by federal law thanks to hillary clinton and democrats and democratic policy loves bailouts they are huge fans of crony capitalism endless bailouts through stimulus packages and taxpayer giveaways i think that it was necessary to make sure that we were able after to put in place the security that we needed and it is true that it did require that there be a process what happened however is that the bush administration began to chip away at that process and i began to speak out about their use of warrantless surveillance and the other behavior that they engaged in hillary clinton voted to reauthorize the patriot act in and hillary s supposed leadership against bush era abuses of the patriot act didn t stop president obama from expanding the use of surveillance far beyond what bush ever did well i can t think of anything more of an outsider than electing the first woman president but i m not just running because i would be the first woman president well i would not ask anyone to vote for me based on my last name false and false california has had a paid leave program for a number of years and it has not had the ill effects that the republicans are always saying it will have california uses employee payroll taxes to finance paid family leave that means all the costs of the program are hidden rather than explicit businesses leave california and employment declines because of its high tax rates businesses hire fewer women if forced to pay higher taxes in order to do so they don t mind having big government to interfere with a woman s right to choose and to try to take down planned parenthood they re fine with big government when it comes to that i m sick of it republicans want to defund planned parenthood that s not big government that s small government further it s not big government to protect human life through force of law any more than it is big government to have murder laws on the books i know we can afford it because we re going to make the wealthy pay for it that is the way to get it done this myth repeated ad nauseum by democrats is truly reprehensible rich people cannot pay for all the utopian programs proposed by the left as john stossel points out if the irs grabbed percent of income over million the take would be just billion both bernie sanders and hillary clinton worshipped at the altar of denmark last night but denmark has lower corporate tax rates than the united states and far higher taxes on the middle class you pay a percent tax on cars in denmark everyone socialism isn t built on the backs of the rich it s built on the backs of everyone who earns and that includes the middle class well in addition to the nra the health insurance companies the drug companies the iranians the iranians are not hillary s enemies they love her for entire list of lies go to breitbart newshillary s a liar but democrats don t care because liars prosper in a world where hard work and honesty are punished in the name of equality and the great socialist utopia

trump on friday charged that the women accusing him of sexual misconduct fabricated their stories to damage his campaign after two more women came forward with allegations that he had groped them the new accusations were made by a contestant on his reality tv show the apprentice who cited a incident and by a woman who described an incident from the early with the allegations against trump dominating the campaign opinion polls show trump trailing democratic rival hillary clinton a reuters ipsos opinion poll taken oct and released on friday showed trump behind clinton by percentage points among likely voters in the nov election trump has spent more and more time at his rallies denying allegations of groping since a video from became public a week ago showing him bragging about groping and making unwanted sexual advances on friday in addition to his denials he suggested that he never would have found two of the women who have made allegations attractive summer zervos who competed on the fifth season of the apprentice in appeared at a news conference with celebrity attorney gloria allred in los angeles saying trump kissed her touched her breast and tried to get her to lie down on a bed with him during a meeting about a possible job he put me in an embrace and i tried to push him away i pushed his chest to put space between us and i said come on man get real he repeated my words back to me get real as he began thrusting his genitals zervos said zervos said she thought trump was going to take her to dinner to discuss a job but the meeting took place in his bungalow at the beverly hills hotel i wondered if the sexual behavior was some kind of test and whether or not i had passed by rejecting it she said but trump later offered her a job at a golf course for half the salary she had requested trump released a statement denying her allegations i vaguely remember ms zervos as one of the many contestants on the apprentice over the years to be clear i never met her at a hotel or greeted her inappropriately a decade ago trump said that is not who i am as a person and it is not how i ve conducted my life at his last event of the day on friday in charlotte trump suggested that his accusers were fabricating their stories for publicity or to damage his campaign it s not hard to find a small handful of people willing to make false smears he said trump said the women may be motivated for financial reasons or political reasons or the simple reason they want to stop our movement earlier friday the washington post published an interview with a woman who said trump put his hand up her skirt in a crowded new york nightclub in the early in an unwanted advance he did touch my vagina through my underwear absolutely kristin anderson said in a video interview on the newspaper s website it wasn t a sexual come on i don t know why he did it it was like just to prove that he could do it she told the newspaper anderson could not be reached for comment trump s white house campaign has been scrambling to recover from the release a week ago of the video while trump said the video was just talk and he had never behaved in that way several women subsequently went public with allegations of sexual misconduct against the new york real estate magnate going back three decades national opinion polls have shown that women voters have been fleeing trump in large numbers putting his campaign in free fall late on friday the trump campaign put forward a british man who disputed the account of one of the accusers jessica leeds leeds who is now said trump groped her on a flight to new york in or around her account was published in the new york times earlier this week and she has since been interviewed on cnn the new york post reported that the man anthony gilberthorpe contacted the trump campaign after leeds went public with her story and said he was sitting near leeds and trump in first class on the same flight i was there i was in a position to know that what she said was wrong wrong wrong said gilberthorpe who is now and would have been a teenager at the time trump had been promising that he would soon provide information showing the allegations against him were false gilberthorpe is known in britain for his claims that he provided underage boys to british politicians for sex parties in the trump mocked leeds on friday believe me she would not be my first choice that i can tell you he said he called natasha stoynoff a reporter who wrote in people magazine that trump kissed her and pinned her against a wall a liar and told the rally to check out her facebook page you ll understand many republicans have sought to distance themselves from trump the most senior of them house of representatives speaker paul ryan angered trump when he announced this week he would no longer campaign for trump or defend him but would focus on trying to preserve the republican majorities in both the house and the senate in the election ryan gave a campaign speech in madison wisconsin on friday without mentioning trump s name once he urged college students to look beyond the ugliness of the presidential campaign to focus on issues such as tax and healthcare reform the kind of election we really want to have it s not the one we re necessarily having right now ryan said urging students to take the high ground trump on friday also accused mexican billionaire carlos slim the top shareholder in the new york times company of helping to generate the reports of sexual misconduct he said slim as a donor to the clinton foundation charity and who holds a percent stake in the times has an interest in helping clinton s white house campaign arturo elias slim s spokesman and son in law said slim had absolutely no contact with the newspaper s reporters or editors on their trump campaign coverage and zero contact with the paper s news operations new york times publisher arthur sulzberger jr said in a statement carlos slim is an excellent shareholder who fully respects boundaries regarding the independence of our journalism he has never sought to influence what we report trump s allegation about slim was the latest chapter in a running series of skirmishes he has had with mexico and mexicans trump kicked off his campaign last year accusing mexico of sending rapists and drug dealers to the united states and promised to build a wall along the southern u s border and said he would make mexico pay for

Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Categorize the news article into one of the 2 categories: True False Input: why ted cruz could have a real shot at the gop nomination perhaps the clearest sign that ted cruz is seriously challenging donald trump s dominance in the republican primary race is that trump has started attacking him up until recently the two have been operating in a state of detente if not outright kinship through all the controversial statements trump has made in this campaign including his call last week to ban muslims from entering the u s cruz has steadfastly avoided saying anything critical of trump instead criticizing reporters for asking him to pass judgment on trump s positions in an interview with npr last week cruz was asked about the proposed muslim ban and simply said i disagree with donald on that but behind closed doors cruz was recorded saying last week that voters are asking themselves who am i comfortable having their finger on the button in audio obtained by the new york times he added that it s also a question of judgment a challenging question for trump cruz said he also lumped in retired neurosurgeon ben carson who has sunk in polls after making serious missteps in statements about foreign policy after that audio was released trump called out cruz on twitter a short time later cruz denied in a tweet that he had any issue with trump but the dam appears to have broken since then trump has called cruz a maniac and at an event in south carolina over the weekend he tried to undermine cruz s base of support among evangelical christian conservatives based on the fact that cruz is the son of a cuban immigrant i do like ted cruz but not a lot of evangelicals come out of cuba in all fairness trump said in reality a poll conducted this year showed that percent of cuban residents are evangelical that was a targeted attack since trump has plenty of reason to worry about cruz s position in iowa with its large base of evangelical voters a des moines register bloomberg poll released sunday conducted by venerable iowa pollster j ann selzer showed cruz opening up a point lead over trump in that state with percent of evangelicals backing cruz cruz also received the most coveted endorsement from an evangelical leader in the state last week there was good news for cruz nationally over the weekend as the latest nbc news wall street journal poll showed him jumping into second place behind trump percent to percent but does cruz have a path to the nomination the short answer is yes for casual observers of politics cruz might fit the mold of past candidates like rick santorum and mike huckabee hard core conservatives popular with the religious base of the gop who won iowa but just couldn t pull together enough support to overcome establishment candidates like john mccain and mitt romney but cruz has some key fundamentals on his side for one thing he dominates the evangelical wing of the gop and has strong support among tea party backers he s been able to raise money and build a campaign organization more effectively than huckabee or santorum the latest fundraising reports released in october showed cruz with more cash in the bank than any other gop candidate with million neither santorum in the cycle nor huckabee in the cycle reported more than million cash on hand at any point in the campaign in states like iowa and south carolina cruz has held a massive event with thousands of supporters in attendance called the rally for religious liberty it s a potent theme this year since the u s supreme court legalized same sex marriage it s also something cruz has played up in his day job leading the charge on capitol hill to pull federal funding for planned parenthood part of the explanation of why cruz is so well poised is also the anti establishment moment we are in cruz is very unpopular among his colleagues in washington in a typical election that could make it hard to raise money and solidify a campaign but in a gop primary race where washington is as good an enemy as hillary clinton herself cruz is making the most of it one of the consistent jokes in his stump speech goes like this i spent most of last week in washington d c so it is great to be back in america another thing cruz has going for him is the primary calendar where you can see his path shaping up first up is iowa on feb where he s now leading the pack if he wins there he goes into new hampshire with low stakes no one expects cruz to do well in new hampshire on feb so he can t lose the expectations game there then there s south carolina on feb where the vote is split among evangelical military and establishment republicans trump is leading there now but if cruz comes out of iowa with a win and the wind at his back he could have a real shot in south carolina where he held one of those large rallies last month and is locking up the endorsements of pastors both will help in turning out evangelical voters in the state if cruz were to win or even come in a strong second in iowa and south carolina he would go into super tuesday on march with the big mo mentum it s dominated by southern states this year which in the past have been marginalized in the primary calendar even though they have become the deep red heart of the republican party this year many southern states banded together to set their primaries on this single day and create a regional superprimary forcing candidates to spend more time campaigning in the south regardless of how the politics of were shaping up that arrangement was likely to give a strong conservative like ted cruz an important early boost and a whole bunch of delegates that day includes the gop primary in texas cruz s home state texas delegates are more than percent of the total that a candidate needs to win the republican nomination though they will be awarded proportionally as opposed to winner take all this is all to say ted cruz has a path to the nomination that runs through iowa and south carolina and could carry through the southern primaries on super tuesday of course others could easily spoil that the candidate many in the republican establishment and beltway pundits are awaiting to challenge trump is florida sen marco rubio his campaign is trying to make a big play this week as he barnstorms early voting states including nevada where the gop candidates will meet for their next debate tuesday nevada where rubio lived for a time as a child and maintains ties with the large mormon community is the only early voting state where he looks poised to succeed at this point of course there s his home state of florida as well another big prize with delegates that will be awarded on a winner take all basis on march but that s getting awfully late in the primary calendar to spark momentum behind a campaign for now rubio is solidly in the second tier and is looking to make a surge like it appears cruz is doing now but despite what rubio might do or what cruz is doing you can t pretend donald trump isn t still dominating the race even if he doesn t retake the lead in iowa he s ahead in new hampshire and south carolina he s also been campaigning consistently in the south if there was any doubt that trump had a serious path to the nomination it was dispelled this week by a report in the washington post that several top establishment republicans including rnc chairman reince priebus huddled in washington to figure out what to do to stop trump should he get to the republican national convention in cleveland next summer with a sizable chunk of delegates at this point it s impossible to say what would prevent that from happening except maybe just maybe it could be ted cruz

creator scott silveri grew up in a home much like the one in speechless with a nonverbal brother with cerebral palsy and other health issues it s a story that i ve been wanting to tell as long as i ve been writing said mr silveri who has written and been a producer for friends and other shows not so much focused on doing a story about disability i was really interested in doing a family show and exploring how one family member with a disability affects everybody else and turns them into the specific kind of weirdos that they become it is largely unexplored territory for decades enduring tv characters with a disability were rare name one from the medium s first years ironside says practically everyone name five more not so easy when such characters did turn up they were frequently used as objects of pity or as catalysts that allowed characters to learn an obvious lesson or feel better about themselves making matters worse was that often actors would tackle these roles with embarrassing gusto people who saw rosie o donnell playing a mentally challenged woman in the tv movie riding the bus with my sister still haven t stopped cringing things have improved in recent years characters with disabilities are still underrepresented on tv the census bureau says one in five americans have a disability with half of those describing the condition as severe but credible ones have been built into the wire switched at birth legit breaking bad and more yet here is a blunt truth some disabilities are more telegenic than others who doesn t love a high school kid singing in perfect harmony and to proud mary sure artie of glee was a delight now take away his singing ability and his wheelchair dexterity and make him able to communicate only by laboriously aiming a laser pointer at a communication board that s jj that is a difficult character to make appealing and putting him in network prime time in a central role is as bold in its way as television s first single mother or black lead or transgender story line was a ago abc took a similar risk with life goes on about a family with a down syndrome child a role played by chris burke who has down syndrome that show though was a drama which is what outsiders might expect disability equals struggle equals nothing but pain and misery we insiders hate that yes having a serious disability or caring for someone who does is hard but hardship doesn t define that life just the other day i laughed a couple of times and so did my daughter who has rett syndrome mr silveri said the no reaction he has had from inside families when they hear about the show has been please tell me it s a comedy the casting of an actor with a disability has caused its own buzz but mr fowler won t merely be playing himself he has a milder form of cerebral palsy than his character he can speak for instance and had to study up on how jj would move and use his device could an actor without a disability have done the same as credibly for mr fowler there s no question living every day with the challenges of a disability allows me to bring a rawness to the character and bring him to life with my unique perspectives he said in an email interview if actors with special needs will be pulling for the show so will a lot of parents of children with disabilities ms driver is keenly aware of carrying those hopes it gives me goose bumps thinking that she said to actually represent a body of people whose story hasn t been told that s very gratifying though i ve been writing as us one thing you learn quickly when you have a child with a disability is that there is no disability community the opinions aspirations and beliefs within that world are as wildly divergent as in the population at large so i won t presume to say what we want speechless to accomplish only what i d like i hope it gives another especially hard kick to the door that has made characters and actors with disabilities so scarce on tv and i hope it helps break down the sense of isolation that envelops families like the dimeos many people still either stare or look away when they see someone like jj i don t expect that those reactions will ever disappear maybe speechless will make them a little less common

Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Categorize the news article into one of the 2 categories: True False Input: in a tent in lebanon surrounded by snow syrian refugees ammar and khadija were married by a tribal leader from their homeland in a wedding they would soon come to regret what they had hoped would be a milestone on the path back to normal life became the start of a bureaucratic nightmare one year on it shows no sign of ending for them their newly born son or for many other refugees from syria whose misery at losing their homes has been compounded by a new fear they may never be able to return it is a dilemma with knock on effects for stability in lebanon sheltering more than a million syrian refugees and potentially for other countries in the middle east and europe they may flee to if tension spills over after they had agreed their union with the sheikh in the insulated tent that had become home to khadija s family the newlyweds both spent months digging potatoes in the bekaa valley one of lebanon s poorest districts to make ends meet only after they had a baby boy khalaf did they realize the wedding had been a mistake when the couple went to register his birth at the local registry they were told they could not because they had no official marriage certificate without registration khalaf is not entitled to a syrian passport or other id enabling him to go there without proper paperwork he also risks future detention in lebanon asked why they did not get married by an approved religious authority ammar and khadija looked at each other before answering we didn t know laws and legislation seem very remote from the informal settlements in the northern bekaa valley where syrian refugee tents sit on the rocky ground amongst rural tobacco fields marriages by unregistered sheikhs are common but hard to quantify because authorities often never hear of them for whereas in syria verbal tribal or religious marriages are easy to register lebanon has complex and costly procedures you first need to be married by a sheikh approved by one of the various religious courts that deal with family matters who gives you a contract then you have to get a marriage certificate from a local notary transfer it to the local civil registry and register it at the foreigners registry most syrians do not complete the process as it requires legal residency in the country which must be renewed annually and costs although the fee was waived for some refugees this year now they have had a child ammar and khadija also need to go through an expensive court case the casual work ammar depends on picking potatoes onions or cucumbers in five hour shifts starting at am pays lbp a day not enough to live on let alone put aside one bag of diapers costs liras he said sally abi khalil country director in lebanon for uk based charity oxfam said percent of syrian refugees do not have valid residency one of the main reasons why they do not register their marriages alongside the issue of the sheikhs babies born to couples who didn t register their marriage risk becoming stateless she said d reutersnews refugees can only legally make money if they have a work permit which requires legal residency a catch situation partially tackled in february when the fee was waived for those registered with the unhcr prior to and without a previous lebanese sponsor lebanon s directorate general of personal status took another step to help the refugees on september when it issued a memo which waived the parents and child s residency prerequisite for birth registration it said but if you are married by an unauthorized sheikh which includes all syrian sheikhs the process is more complicated made worse by a clock ticking over the fate of your offspring whose birth has to be registered within a year in registering marriages the biggest problem we faced was the sheikh said rajeh a syrian refugee speaking for his community in a village in southern lebanon in syria the child would be ten years old and you can register him in one day if the one year deadline is missed in lebanon parents have to open a civil court case estimated to cost more than one hundred dollars and still requiring legal residency which ammar and khadija who met in the informal settlement do not have legal residency becomes a requirement in lebanon at the age of at that point many syrians pull their children from school and do not let them stray far from the house or neighborhood for fear they will be stopped and detained more than half of those who escaped the syrian conflict that began in are under years old and around one in six are babies and toddlers said tina gewis a legal specialist from the norwegian refugee council politicians pressured by some lebanese saying the country has carried too much of the burden of the refugee crisis are pushing harder for the return of the displaced to syria raising the stakes since documentation is required for repatriation if they have used an unauthorized sheikh couples are encouraged to redo their marriages said sheikh wassim yousef al falah beirut s sharia islamic law judge who said the court s case load had tripled with the influx of syrian refugees but that is not an option for ammar and khadija because a pregnancy or the birth of a child rules that option out gewis said that in any case new marriages risked complicating future inheritance or other legal issues and costs were prohibitive with courts charging up to to register even straightforward marriages by an approved sheikh ziad al sayegh a senior advisor in lebanon s newly formed ministry of state for displaced affairs said beirut was keen to help the refugees overcome their difficulties we don t want them to be stateless because if you re stateless you have a legal problem that will affect the child and affect the host country he said

optimistic he says see and why shouldn t bill gates be an optimist he s one of the richest men in the world he basically invented the form of personal computing that dominated for decades he runs a foundation immersed in the world s worst problems child mortality malaria polio but he can see them getting better hell he can measure them getting better child mortality has fallen by half since to him optimism is simply realism but lately gates has been obsessing over a dark question what s likeliest to kill more than million human beings in the next years he ticks off the disaster movie stuff big volcanic explosion gigantic earthquake asteroid but says the more he learns about them the more he realizes the probability is very low then there s war of course but gates isn t that worried about war because the entire human race worries about war pretty much all the time and the most dangerous kind of war nuclear war seems pretty contained at least for now but there s something out there that s as bad as war something that kills as many people as war and gates doesn t think we re ready for it look at the death chart of the century he says because he s the kind of guy that looks at death charts i think everybody would say there must be a spike for world war i sure enough there it is like million and there must be a big spike for world war ii and there it is it s like million but then you ll see this other spike that is as large as world war ii right after world war i and most people would say what was that well that was the spanish flu no one can say we weren t warned and warned and warned a pandemic disease is the most predictable catastrophe in the history of the human race if only because it has happened to the human race so many many times before in a paper on the anthropology of infectious disease marcia inhorn and peter brown estimated that infectious diseases have likely claimed more lives than all wars noninfectious diseases and natural disasters put together infectious diseases are our oldest deadliest foe and they remain so today in a good year flu kills over americans says dr thomas frieden director of the centers for disease control and prevention in a bad year it kills over five times that if we have a pandemic it will be much worse people think the flu wasn t so bad but more than american kids died from each new year seems to bring its own sensational candidate for the next pandemic in of course it was the ebola outbreak which killed more than people and sent much of america into hysterics this year a particularly infectious form of bird flu has ripped through states killing or forcing the slaughter of million birds public health authorities are forcing the grisly massacre because the more birds around for the flu to infect the more chances the flu has to mutate and reassemble itself into a form that can infect humans it isn t just the news that carries warnings the culture is thick with our fear of infectious disease zombies for instance are everywhere world war z was a best selling book and a blockbuster movie the walking dead has become one of television s most popular shows and zombies are a metaphor for infectious disease when i was a kid i watched aids go from an obscure arcane curiosity to a global pandemic max brooks author of world war z told the cdc what drove me crazy was that unlike the black death or the spanish influenza aids could have simply been stopped by a pamphlet a couple dos and don ts a little education and clear headed leadership and it might have ended up as a footnote in a virologists medical text if that s not zombies i don t know what is the cdc has even released a document titled preparedness zombie apocalypse the point obviously isn t that the cdc expects a zombie apocalypse around the corner it s that since a zombie apocalypse is simply an infectious disease apocalypse talking about how to avoid becoming a zombie is a safe way for people to talk about how to protect themselves from pandemic disease when confronted with real anxiety a lot of people shut down brooks said for them planning for an actual crisis is just too scary too paralyzing to think about make it a zombie attack though then there s some psychological padding pandemic disease is something our culture thinks about knows about fears it s so topmost on our minds and in our nightmares that we ve created an elaborate metaphorical architecture so we can talk about it even with people who are too scared to talk about it we think about it so much it seems almost ridiculous that we aren t ready but we re not not even close just look what happened with ebola ron klain was an odd choice for ebola czar klain entered the obama administration as vice president joe biden s chief of staff this was itself notable klain was chief of staff to vice president al gore too making him the only person to serve in that position for two different vice presidents he quickly proved himself an exceptional fixer for the obama administration with a mix of policy political and bureaucratic chops that everyone agreed was rare and so when president obama needed someone to coordinate the us government s response he turned to klain and klain did his job after a few early botched cases the ebola outbreak ended on american soil ebola became what americans were used to it being someone else s problem but talk to klain today and he doesn t sound like a guy exulting in victory he sounds scared he doesn t think ebola showed that america s response can work he thinks it showed how easily it could fail you can t use the word lucky or fortunate about something like ebola that killed people klain says but it was the most favorable scenario for the world to face one of these things ebola is very difficult to transmit everyone who is contagious has a visible symptom it broke out in three relatively small countries that don t send many travelers to the us and those three countries have good relationships with america and were welcoming of western aid with a pandemic flu the disease would be much more contagious than ebola klain continues the people who are contagious may not have visible symptoms it could break out in a highly populous country that sends thousands of travelers a day to the us it could be a country with megacities with tens of millions of people and it could be a country where sending in the airborne isn t possible ebola klain thinks shows how unprepared the world was for a disease that it s known about for decades and that comparatively speaking spreads pretty slowly a person infected with ebola can be expected to pass the disease on to two people barring effective countermeasures epidemiologists call this the reproduction number two is not that high as these things go the sars virus had a reproduction number of four measles has a reproduction number of what happens when the world faces a lethal disease we re not used to with a reproduction number of five or eight or what if it starts in a megacity what if unlike ebola it s contagious before the patient is showing obvious symptoms past experience isn t comforting if you look at the flu in klain says it had spread around the world before we even knew it existed behind gates s fear of pandemic disease is an algorithmic model of how disease moves through the modern world he funded that model to help with his foundation s work eradicating polio but then he used it to look into how a disease that acted like the spanish flu of would work in today s world the results were shocking even to gates within days it s basically in all urban centers around the entire globe he says that didn t happen with the spanish flu the basic reason the disease could spread so fast is that human beings now move around so fast gates s modelers found that about times more people cross borders today than did so in and any new disease will cross those borders with them and will do it before we necessarily even know there is a new disease remember what ron klain said if you look at the flu in it had spread around the world before we even knew it existed gates s model showed that a spanish flu like disease unleashed on the modern world would kill more than million people in days we ve created in terms of spread the most dangerous environment that we ve ever had in the history of mankind gates says the science fiction writer william gibson has a good line the future is already here it s just not evenly distributed and nowhere is that truer than in health care according to the world health organization the united states spends more than per person per year on health care eritrea spends less than traditionally americans thinks of that as eritrea s problem but if a highly infectious highly lethal new disease presents in eritrea and the world is slow to learn about it then it will quickly become america s problem this is of course what happened with ebola if it had made its first appearance in the united states it likely would have been caught and contained quickly but as my colleague julia belluz wrote the countries where the outbreak began happen to be three of the poorest in the world and it took them at least three months to even realize they were harboring an ebola outbreak by the time ebola was recognized it was already out of control and so for the first time it made its way to american shores when i ask the cdc s frieden what s needed to catch these diseases early he doesn t hesitate the most effective way to protect people is basic public health infrastructure he says that means laboratories for finding specimens getting them tested and discovering what s spreading it means field epidemiologists it means emergency operation centers and you need to have that available day in and day out if we ve learned anything it s that you want an everyday public health system you can scale up for an emergency not a system you only use in case of emergencies the good news is this kind of system isn t all that expensive basic public health infrastructure is fairly cheap around a dollar per person per year there s no magic here says frieden in uganda you have motorcycle couriers picking up specimens from hundreds and hundreds of health care centers all over the country they then send them to centralized centers the expense isn t huge the difficulty often isn t money it s priorities these aren t sexy investments it doesn t cost nearly as much as building a fancy hospital in your capital says frieden with evident frustration but if you can find the disease and test it then modern technology really does come into play we can rapidly decode the basic structure and pathways of new diseases in ways that were unimaginable even a few decades ago and that means we can come up with a response much more rapidly the bad news you need a government that works sighs frieden pandemic infections present three basic problems of governance the first is countries that don t want to admit they need international help because they don t want to admit they have a problem in the first place guinea did not want to declare an ebola epidemic gates says because in terms of investors and travel it s a death sentence and it wasn t just guinea or even just ebola as michael specter wrote in the new yorker the second is countries that can t admit international help either because the state is too weak and fragmented to effectively coordinate with international actors or because the state is hostile to the organizations that would need to come in and offer relief imagine an outbreak that begins in syria right now and you get the idea the third problem is that no one really trusts the efficacy of the international institutions that would most naturally coordinate the response there is no other way to say this the world health organization s ebola performance was a disaster the who s slow response to ebola has been universally condemned reported the guardian the director general s committee which can declare a public health emergency was not convened until august eight months after the first cases and five months after public warnings from médecins sans frontières whose doctors were on the front line germany s chancellor angela merkel is now leading an effort to reform the organization but similar mistakes during the sars crisis and have led to similar calls for who reform and little has happened this isn t just an issue of bureaucratic incompetence the who is underpowered for the problems it s meant to solve about percent of its funding comes from voluntary donations and there s no mechanism by which it can quickly scale its efforts during an emergency the who s member countries could fix this by giving the who more reliable permanent funding or even more reliable emergency funding mechanisms but so far no suggestions along those lines have gained much traction the result is that the who that will face the next major disease outbreak is likely to be quite similar to the who that faced ebola and and sars as a senior us delegate to the world health assembly told vox are we sure can do better next time no whether through the who or some other mechanism most experts agree that the world needs some kind of emergency response team for dangerous diseases but no one knows quite how to set up that team that s what we re lacking in the global system a battalion of people in white helmets says klain but who will own it control it pay for it deploy it those are the tricky things this is in stark contrast to war which is not necessarily more deadly to the human race but is much better planned for when you talk about war gates says there are all these rules about how the government can seize various ships but when an epidemic comes along who is supposed to survey the private capacity and go out there and grab all these things look at what happened during ebola gates continues where was the equivalent of the military reserve where you get on the phone and you said to people now come and they had been trained and they understood how to work together people who want to volunteer do we pay them what do we do with them after they come back when people might have this fear that they ve been exposed are employers going to take them back what are the quarantine rules it was completely ad hoc this is what s so maddening about the modern fight with epidemic disease unlike in past eras humanity has the tools it needs to protect itself but global travel has far outpaced global governance or even global disease response diseases move much faster than governments this is the hole in the global system klain says and no one really knows how to fix it

had a cigarette but nearly every day stacey then smoked marijuana with her fiancé s blessing she began taking a few puffs in her first trimester to quell morning sickness before going to work at a sandwich shop when sciatica made it unbearable to stand during her shifts she discreetly vaped marijuana oil on her lunch break i wouldn t necessarily say go smoke a pound of pot when you re pregnant said stacey now a mother in deltona fla who asked that her full name be withheld because marijuana is illegal in florida in moderation it s o k many pregnant women particularly younger ones seem to agree a recent federal survey shows as states legalize marijuana or its medical use expectant mothers are taking it up in increasing numbers another example of the many ways in which acceptance of marijuana has outstripped scientific understanding of its effects on human health often pregnant women presume that cannabis has no consequences for developing infants but preliminary research suggests otherwise marijuana s main psychoactive ingredient tetrahydrocannabinol or thc can cross the placenta to reach the fetus experts say potentially harming brain development cognition and birth weight thc can also be present in breast milk there is an increased perception of the safety of cannabis use even in pregnancy without data to say it s actually safe said dr torri metz an obstetrician at denver health medical center who specializes in pregnancies ten percent of her patients acknowledge recent marijuana use in the federal survey published online in december almost percent of said they had used marijuana in the past month in compared with percent in by comparison roughly percent of pregnant women ages to acknowledge using alcohol in the previous month young were particularly likely to turn to marijuana roughly percent of to said they had used pot in the past month in compared with percent of women ages to evidence on the effects of prenatal marijuana use is still limited and sometimes contradictory some of the most extensive data come from two sets of researchers in pittsburgh and in ottawa who have long studied children exposed to thc in the womb in pittsburgh born to mothers who had smoked one joint or more daily in the first trimester showed a decreased ability to understand concepts in listening and reading at age children exposed to thc in utero were more impulsive than other children and less able to focus their attention most troubling children of mothers who used marijuana heavily in the first trimester had lower scores in reading math and spelling at age than their peers prenatal exposure can affect the adolescent pretty significantly said dr lauren m jansson the director of pediatrics at the center for addiction and pregnancy at the johns hopkins university school of medicine several studies have found changes in the brains of fetuses to weeks old linked to maternal marijuana use in male fetuses who were exposed for instance researchers have noted abnormal function of the amygdala the part of the brain that regulates emotion even early in development marijuana is changing critical circuits and neurotransmitting receptors said dr yasmin hurd a neuroscientist and the director of the addiction center at icahn school of medicine at mount sinai in manhattan those are important for regulation of emotions and reward even motor function and cognition it is already well documented that the developing brains of teenagers can be altered with regular marijuana use even eventually reducing i q the effects are not dramatic but that doesn t mean they are not important said jodi gilman an assistant professor of psychiatry at harvard medical school who studies adolescent users of cannabis it could make the difference between getting an a and getting a b you could imagine that a similar subtle effect may be present in those who were exposed prenatally to marijuana she added the american academy of pediatrics and the american college of obstetricians and gynecologists both advise against prenatal cannabis use because of its links to cognitive impairment and academic underachievement but many state and federal agencies avoid the topic of five federal agencies only the national institute on drug abuse had any information about prenatal marijuana use on its website as of last february according to a study published online in december in the journal substance abuse only state health departments did until recently the centers for disease control and prevention offered nothing i don t think public health officials should be alarming people said marian jarlenski the study s lead author and an assistant professor at the university of pittsburgh graduate school of public health they just have to say there have been studies done and there is some risk in a statement c d c officials expressed concern about memory and attention problems among children exposed to thc in utero while current evidence on health consequences is inconsistent some studies have found risks associated with marijuana use during pregnancy such as low birth weight or preterm birth the agency said dr marie mccormick a pediatrician and the chairwoman of a new report on cannabis from the national academies of sciences engineering and medicine said smoking cannabis does confer in terms of birth weight the same risk as cigarettes some of the gathering evidence is reassuring so far prenatal cannabis exposure does not appear to be linked to obvious birth defects that s why some providers and lay people alike think there s no effect said dr erica wymore a neonatologist at children s hospital colorado but she warned just because they don t have a major birth defect or overt withdrawal symptoms doesn t mean the baby s neurological development is not impacted most research in this area was done when the drug was far less potent marijuana had percent thc in while in it was just percent according to the national institute on drug abuse all those really good earlier studies on marijuana effects aren t telling us what we need to know now about higher concentration levels said therese grant an epidemiologist and director of the university of washington s fetal alcohol and drug unit we need to do a whole lot more research now there are two additional problems with studies of maternal cannabis use research is often based on reports by pregnant women instead of say tests of urine or the umbilical cord and they consistently underreport their use researchers know of underreporting because samples reveal discrepancies and pregnant women who roll joints also tend to smoke tobacco or drink alcohol it can be hard to tease out the risks of cannabis itself few realize that thc is stored in fat and therefore can linger in a mother s body for weeks if not months it s not known whether the fetus s exposure is limited to the hours a woman feels high the american college of obstetricians and gynecologists advises clinicians to ask pregnant women about marijuana use and to urge them to quit to find out whether that s happening dr judy chang an at the university of pittsburgh and her colleagues recorded more than first visits with pregnant patients medical staff were more likely to warn patients that child protective services might be called if they used marijuana the researchers found than to advise them of potential risks when admitted to marijuana use almost half of obstetric clinicians did not respond at all pregnant women aren t eager to discuss it either because they are afraid of legal repercussions or a lecture depression anxiety stress pain nausea and vomiting were the most common reasons women reported using marijuana in a survey of mothers getting federal nutrition help in colorado roughly percent were pot users a third were pregnant women are thinking of this as medical marijuana in that they are treating some condition said elizabeth nash a policy analyst at the guttmacher institute who researches substance abuse in pregnancy if you re going to consider it like medicine she said then treat it like medicine and talk to your doctor about it stacey s son just had his first birthday he s walking talking and and she isn t worried about his development she still smokes pot indeed her son plays on a rug emblazoned with a marijuana leaf but the severe cramps that plagued her before pregnancy are easing now i don t have to smoke as much anymore she said

hexagonal storm four times the size of earth crowning saturn s north pole including a clearly defined eyewall based on its size and movements scientists have concluded that it s a vast cloud pattern generated by a gigantic perpetual hurricane spinning at the center of the planet s north pole scientists estimate that this storm has been raging for decades maybe even centuries each side on the northern polar hexagon is approximately km long and the whole structure rotates once every hours and minutes a day on saturn in just four years saturn s hexagon has changed its color from blue to gold when saturn s north pole gears up for next year s summer solstice saturn s hexagon is a six sided structure that spans roughly km miles in diameter and extends about km miles down into the planet s dense atmosphere because saturn does not have land masses or oceans on its surface to complicate weather the way earth does its conditions should give scientists a more elementary model to study the physics of circulation patterns and atmosphere said kevin baines an atmospheric scientist at nasa s jet propulsion laboratory pasadena calif who has studied the hexagon with cassini s visual and infrared mapping spectrometer the last visible light images of the entire hexagon were captured by nasa s voyager spacecraft nearly years ago the last time spring began on saturn after the sunlight faded darkness shrouded the north pole for years much to the delight and bafflement of cassini scientists the location and shape of the hexagon in the latest images match up with what they saw in the voyager pictures the longevity of the hexagon makes this something special given that weather on earth lasts on the order of weeks said kunio sayanagi a cassini imaging team associate at the california institute of technology it s a mystery on par with the strange weather conditions that give rise to the long lived great red spot of jupiter the hexagon was originally discovered in images taken by the voyager spacecraft in the early it encircles saturn at about degrees north latitude and has been estimated to have a diameter wider than two earths the jet stream is believed to whip along the hexagon at around meters per second miles per hour early hexagon images from voyager and ground based telescopes suffered from poor viewing perspectives cassini which has been orbiting saturn since has a better angle for viewing the north pole but the long darkness of saturnian winter hid the hexagon from cassini s visible light cameras for years infrared instruments however were able to obtain images by using heat patterns those images showed the hexagon is nearly stationary and extends deep into the atmosphere they also discovered a hotspot and cyclone in the same region as observed by nasa s voyager and cassini spacecraft each point of the hexagon appears to rotate at its center at nearly the same rate that saturn rotates on its axis along the rim of the hexagon a jet stream of air is blasting eastward at speeds of km h mph while we re pretty confident that we know what saturn s hexagon is the big mystery is how it got there in the first place once you have a giant whirlpool of air it s relatively easy to keep it spinning but the force you need to get it wound up in the first place is a whole lot more difficult to explain it s fascinating that the cassini spacecraft could have observed two completely different colors in the hexagon between november and september the best hypothesis is that this is what it looks like when saturn changes seasons with a year that lasts earth years saturn changes seasons only once every seven years and the increased sunlight over the past three years could explain the golden haze the color change is thought to be an effect of saturn s seasons in particular the change from a bluish colour to a more golden hue may be due to the increased production of photochemical hazes in the atmosphere as the north pole approaches summer solstice in may inside the hexagon there are fewer large haze particles and a concentration of small haze particles while outside the hexagon the opposite is true kunio sayanagi a cassini imaging team associate at hampton university explained back in the hexagonal jet stream is acting like a barrier which results in something like earth s antarctic ozone hole but since saturn reached its equinox in august the point where the sun is directly over saturn s equator it s been gradually exposed to more and more sunlight which means that for the past three years aerosols have been produced inside of the hexagon and around the north pole making the polar atmosphere appear hazy and golden when photographed last month other effects including changes in atmospheric circulation could also be playing a role nasa explained this week scientists think seasonally shifting patterns of solar heating probably influence the winds in the polar regions nasa scientists have an investigation underway to figure out what s actually going the daily galaxy via nasa jpl caltech space science institute hampton university source the daily galaxy

lawmakers in the house agreed friday to significant changes to medicaid that could impose work requirements on medicaid beneficiaries in some states and limit federal funds for the program as republican leaders tried to rally balking lawmakers behind legislation to repeal the affordable care act i want everyone to know i m percent behind this mr trump said at the white house where he met with house members in the conservative republican study committee at a news conference hours later the president predicted it s going to be passed i believe i think substantially and pretty quickly on capitol hill the outlook was far less clear the house is tentatively scheduled to vote thursday to repeal president barack obama s signature domestic achievement exactly seven years after mr obama signed it into law as some lawmakers came out for the measure some others in the house and senate were stepping forward to oppose it fundamentally i don t believe this proposal provides an adequate option for insurance access nor does it address costs representative john katko republican of new york said in a statement on friday further i am confident the proposal would harm hospitals across my district the concessions to conservatives are significant and politically risky the obama administration refused to allow work requirements saying they were not consistent with the goals of medicaid the health program for people several republican governors have expressed interest in imposing such requirements on certain medicaid beneficiaries adults without minor children the medicaid expansion has created a perverse incentive for states to provide benefits to adults at the expense of the elderly the blind and the disabled representative gary palmer republican of alabama said this week a work requirement would help states focus their limited resources on the truly needy the president and house conservatives also agreed to allow states to choose one block grant to fund their medicaid programs the initial house bill would end medicaid as an entitlement to health care replacing that with an allotment to the states for each medicaid beneficiary if instead states accepted payments they could gain more control over spending and more freedom to administer the program and define eligibility and benefits critics say that would restrict access to medicaid in states with conservative governments it is not clear how the federal government would calculate the amount of block grants nor is it clear which states if any might accept that option the nonpartisan congressional budget office has already estimated that under the house bill the number of people without health insurance would be million higher than expected next year and would be million higher by the medicaid adjustments could nudge that number even higher a problem for many senators the one republican senator up for next year in a true swing state dean heller of nevada said on friday that he opposed the bill in its current form another republican senator joni ernst of iowa was noncommittal another likely change republicans said would be to restructure the tax credits offered under the bill to help people buy private health insurance republican lawmakers had expressed concern that the tax credits as originally devised by house leaders were insufficient and could produce huge increases in premiums for some people age to the changes in medicaid provisions of the bill could help win over conservative house members who have expressed concern or outright opposition to the bill for multiple reasons mr palmer voted against the house bill in the budget committee on thursday on friday he emerged from the white house in favor of it we ve never had an opportunity to do anything like this mr palmer said later this will be the most significant entitlement reform that we ve seen representative mark walker of north carolina the chairman of the republican study committee said other members were on board as well on balance and with the changes we agreed to in the bill s final text i can vote for it he said after the meeting in the oval office mr trump s level of engagement has been a major question mark as congressional leaders have tried to sell the proposal in the face of stinging opposition from a number of directions his show of support for the house plan on friday provided a lift for house leaders who have been on the defensive all week over their bill and the persistent conservative opposition to it conservative holdouts who still have objections to the bill may reconsider if they come under more pressure from the president these changes definitely strengthen our number but also show that president trump s now said the house majority whip representative steve scalise of louisiana who was at the white house meeting and recounted how mr trump voiced his support for the measure representative bradley byrne republican of alabama said the changes in the bill were having the intended effect i can tell you from the private conversations i m having with people support for the bill has built dramatically over the last hours he said friday but the changes were not enough to sway the house freedom caucus which reiterated its opposition on friday changing the bill to win over such conservatives risks alienating more moderate members of the house and the senate who worry that the measure could cause millions of people to lose health coverage the republican governors of four states that have expanded medicaid under the affordable care act arkansas michigan nevada and ohio sent a letter to congressional leaders this week rejecting the house bill as written senator susan collins republican of maine said on thursday that she opposed the house bill explaining that it would not do enough to help older people afford insurance we don t want to in any way sacrifice coverage for people who need it the most she told the portland press herald house republican moderates may be loath to take a difficult political vote if they are convinced the measure will die in the senate if i hear one more senator tell me that this is dead on arrival i think my head s going to explode said representative charlie dent a moderate republican from pennsylvania that certainly is not something many members of the house find very appetizing voting for something that will go nowhere in the senate the house democratic whip representative steny h hoyer of maryland predicted that while the bill might be approved by the house it will not become law under the affordable care act states have expanded medicaid providing coverage to millions of adults the federal government has been paying more than percent of the costs for the newly eligible beneficiaries republicans say this has taken the program away from its original purpose democrats contend that work requirements could increase the number of uninsured limiting access to health care without significantly increasing employment

decisive win in new york s presidential primary first it s the acknowledgment of a big run for trump this week and next during which the gop frontrunner will amass delegates at a faster clip than any of the other three republicans in the race in the process stretching his lead over texas sen ted cruz and pumping up the volume that the republican nomination is deservedly the donald s regardless of where the delegate tally stands going into july s national convention in cleveland trump s argument will look good on paper at least after new york he s two thirds of the way to the delegates required by the gop and a guaranteed first ballot win in cleveland for argument s sake let s give trump roughly of the delegates up for grabs next tuesday all the action occurring in his mid atlantic backyard of connecticut delaware maryland pennsylvania and rhode island once the five states holding gop contests in may apportion their combined delegates trump s total should enter four digit territory per this associated press breakdown a first ballot scenario remains feasible if he s smart trump will use the rest of april and may to keep driving home one word inevitability backed up by this exit poll data showing that an overwhelming number of new york republicans saying the candidate with the most primary votes should be the party s nominee now the other takeaway from new york the sinatra question to paraphrase that other chairman of the board if trump can make it there winning big in the empire state in a closed republican primary can he make it anywhere with three fifths of a primary electorate that hasn t bought into his candidacy the answer no not in every primary at least and stay tuned may will not be the friendliest of months for trump what with a first tuesday primary in indiana that could spell more midwestern trouble perhaps a repeat of his meltdown in wisconsin after that a winner take all contest in nebraska that likely will go to cruz draw a line from texas to north dakota and it runs through states cruz has won finally oregon and washington awarding their delegates proportionally not much of a buzz there however there is an opportunity for trump to take a major step forward in a way having nothing to do with bean counting and convention arcana and that would be courting those skeptical republicans still waiting for a trumpian pivot from angry rhetoric and juvenile social media insults to a more dignified tone and statesmanlike persona the news that broke on the same day as new york s results that trump is shaking up his senior campaign staff and empowering his team to spend aggressively to win in may and june is a first step in that direction the next step breaching divides within the gop according to the latest nbc news wall street journal poll percent of republican primary voters say they could be satisfied with trump as the gop nominee the good news it s better than the percent trump received back in the march exit polls not so good it cries of work to be done specifically shoring up support among conservatives uneasy of trump s past policy inconsistencies and his unwilling in this campaign to take on entitlement spending and the federal budget dragon four years ago conservatives accounted for percent of that year s presidential turnout the highest share since pollsters first began recording that statistic back in percent of them voted for mitt romney four years previously conservatives were percent of the turnout only percent voted for john mccain in theory cruz has a chance of repeating those percentages if not improving on them can trump only if he starts speaking the language such is the unusual nature of this republican contest in late april of after republican primaries and caucuses had voted romney had distanced himself from the field to the point where he could travel to new hampshire and deliver this speech with an eye on the general election romney promised a new campaign to unite every american who knows in their heart that we can do better the beginning of the end of the disappointments of the obama years and the start of a new and better chapter that we will write together trump s not in that position at present and he may not be until the final night of the republican national convention then again he s not the only candidate going through hard times these days the same nbc wsj poll that gave trump a historically awful percent positive percent negative approval rating and had hillary clinton weighing in at percent positive percent negative cruz recorded a percent positive percent negative kasich came in at percent positive percent negative vermont sen bernie sanders the democratic socialist and clinton s chief tormentor these days received grades of percent positive percent negative suggesting that the american electorate is not only sour on the political class but sorely in need of a week in caracas for a reality check on how a socialist county fares under bernie vision will trump take advantage of may s light pace to transition from temper tantrums to a style more tempered it s the practical thing to do especially when confronted with national poll numbers that for now at least are practically awful bill whalen is a research fellow at stanford university s hoover institution where he analyzes california and national politics he also blogs daily on the election

the cause was complications of cancer mr buchla was an instrument builder musician and composer he conceived his instruments including a modular synthesizer as tools for creating previously unheard sounds and gave them names like the music easel thunder or simply the buchla box his inventions were prized for the flexibility and richness of the sounds they produced and the possibilities they suggested mr buchla disliked the term synthesizer which suggested to him a synthetic imitation of existing sounds he was best known for the many devices he designed for his own company buchla associates but in a career he also helped build and sometimes ran the grateful dead s sound system in the worked on nasa projects and devised early transistorized hearing aids and navigation devices for the blind at least one sound from a buchla instrument has been heard worldwide the pop and pour sound created by the composer suzanne ciani and used in countless advertisements in the mr buchla s instruments represented what became known as the west coast philosophy of electronic music more experimental and less commercial breaking away from tradition and virtuosity i always figured that if i made something that was too popular that i was doing something wrong and had best move on mr buchla told trevor pinch and frank trocco the authors of analog days the invention and impact of the moog synthesizer and i ve always enjoyed being on the edge in the early the robert moog who died in and mr buchla arrived independently at the idea of the modular synthesizer an instrument assembled from various modules that controlled one another s voltages to generate and shape sounds voltages could control pitch volume attack timbre speed and other parameters interacting in complex ways mr buchla began designing his first instrument in but it was not completed until the first moog prototype was unveiled in on the east coast mr moog built synthesizers that could be played from a keyboard a configuration that working musicians found familiar and practical mr buchla in san francisco wanted instruments that were not necessarily tied to western scales or existing keyboard techniques to encourage unconventional thinking his early instruments deliberately omitted a keyboard a keyboard is dictatorial he said when you ve got a keyboard it s hard to play anything but keyboard music while the modules of moog synthesizers had straightforward names out of electrical engineering oscillators to generate tones filters to modify them mr buchla s instruments had modules with more colorful names like multiple arbitrary function generator quad dynamics manager and for his noise generator source of uncertainty i have always been outside and i ve chosen to remain there he said in a interview with polyphony magazine i ve been an experimentalist since really early childhood mr buchla was born in south gate calif on april and grew up in that state and in new jersey he studied piano and discovering a knack for electronics began building radio sets he studied astronomy music and physiology at the university of california berkeley and graduated as a physics major in while at

administration in the early and he made music building string instruments and sound sculptures his composition cicada music calls for approximately performers mr buchla grew interested in musique concrète an experimental technique using recording tape to manipulate sounds and worked at the san francisco tape music center as both a composer and a technician in with from a rockefeller foundation grant made to the tape music center the composers morton subotnick and ramon sender commissioned mr buchla to build his first instrument the original buchla box it included a module that would transform both and popular music called a sequencer it vastly expanded the concept and functionality of a tape loop by generating and repeating a chosen series of voltages enabling it to control a recurring melody a rhythm track or other musical elements it would become an essential tool of electronic dance music mr subotnick used a buchla series modular electronic music system to create silver apples of the moon a album commissioned by nonesuch records the composer vladimir ussachevsky ordered three for the studios of the electronic music center now the computer music center at columbia university that order led mr buchla to start his instrument factory in a berkeley storefront so small that the instruments were often assembled out on the sidewalk the buchla box also supplied sound for the writer ken kesey s acid tests the freewheeling multimedia happenings at which attendees including mr buchla used lsd mr buchla was at the electronic controls for sound and visuals at the trips festival in san francisco in a pinnacle of the psychedelic era in his book the electric acid test tom wolfe wrote about the buchla electronic music machine screaming like a logical lunatic after building part of the grateful dead s sound system in the he sometimes mixed the band s live shows adding electronic sounds from his buchla box cbs licensed mr buchla s designs in for a division it owned at the time but the partnership did not last mr buchla s instruments were not geared toward a mass market he returned to developing and manufacturing instruments on his own as the began he saw possibilities in minicomputers inventing hybrid electronic instruments beginning with his series electronic music box mr buchla was the technical director from to at the california institute of the

for educational institutions including stony brook university on long island and the norwegian center for electronic music in oslo by the end of the he had invented a keyboard instrument the touché and an electronic cello interface his buchla series included a video display mr buchla was a consultant to the contemporary music organization ircam institute for research and coordination in in france and he received a national endowment for the arts fellowship to design instruments and write music for a electronic orchestra during the he turned to designing midi controllers alternatives to keyboards that send signals from a physical performance to a synthesizer one controller the thunder had plates that responded to contact pressure and location another the lightning had wands responding to motion and gesture and the marimba lumina played with mallets responded to velocity position and contact each of its four mallets could be assigned its own sound mr buchla consulted for other instrument companies including oberheim for which he designed the oberheim and moog which manufactured his pianobar which employed sensors placed on a piano s keys and pedals to translate a pianist s performance into midi signals as the century began there was a surge of interest in modular analog synthesizers a backlash against predictable sterile digital sounds mr buchla revisited his series from the updating it as the yet his business ran into financial problems and in as mr buchla struggled with cancer he sold the company to audio supermarket which changed its name to buchla electronic musical instruments and made mr buchla its chief technical officer only to fire him in mr buchla had a stroke in in he sued buchla electronic musical instruments to regain control of the company contending that he had not been fully paid for the sale that he was terminated without good cause and that the company had failed to use reasonable business efforts to reach sales targets the
