Question: Text of declassified GOP memo targeting FBI's Russia probe

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

House Republicans on Friday released a formerly classified memo regarding the early stages of the FBI’s investigation into the Trump campaign and Russia. The four-page document, dated Jan. 18, 2018, was written by Republican members of the House intelligence committee under the subject line “Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Abuses at the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.”
The White House declassified the memo over the objections of the Justice Department and sent it to the intelligence committee chairman, Republican Rep. Devin Nunes, for immediate release.
Here is the text of the memo:
Purpose
This memorandum provides Members an update on significant facts relating to the Committee’s ongoing investigation into the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and their use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) during the 2016 presidential election cycle. Our findings, which are detailed below, 1) raise concerns with the legitimacy and legality of certain DOJ and FBI interactions with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), and 2) represent a troubling breakdown of legal processes established to protect the American people from abuses related to the FISA process.
Investigation Update
On October 21, 2016, DOJ and FBI sought and received a FISA probable cause order (not under Title VII) authorizing electronic surveillance on Carter Page from the FISC. Page is a U.S.citizen who served as a volunteer advisor to the Trump presidential campaign. Consistent with requirements under FISA, the application had to be first certified by the Director or Deputy Director of the FBI. It then required the approval of the Attorney General, Deputy Attorney General (DAG), or the Senate-confirmed Assistant Attorney General for the National Security Division.
The FBI and DOJ obtained one initial FISA warrant targeting Carter Page and three FISA renewals from the FISC. As required by statute (50 U.S.C. 1805(d)(1)), a FISA order on an American citizen must be renewed by the FISC every 90 days and each renewal requires a separate finding of probable cause. Then-Director James Comey signed three FISA applications in question on behalf of the FBI, and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe signed one. Then-DAG Sally Yates, then-Acting DAG Dana Boente, and DAG Rod Rosenstein each signed one or more FISA applications on behalf of DOJ.
Due to the sensitive nature of foreign intelligence activity, FISA submissions (including renewals) before the FISC are classified. As such, the public’s confidence in the integrity of the FISA process depends on the court’s ability to hold the government to the highest standard — particularly as it relates to surveillance of American citizens. However, the FISC’s rigour in protecting the rights of Americans, which is reinforced by 90-day renewals of surveillance orders, is necessarily dependent on the government’s production to the court of all material and relevant facts. This should include information potentially favourable to the target of the FISA application that is known by the government. In the case of Carter Page, the government had at least four independent opportunities before the FISC to accurately provide an accounting of the relevant facts. However, our findings indicate that, as described below, material and relevant information was omitted.
1) The “dossier” compiled by Christopher Steele (Steele dossier) on behalf of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Hillary Clinton campaign formed an essential part of the Carter Page FISA application. Steele was a longtime FBI source who was paid over $160,000 by the DNC and Clinton campaign, via the law firm Perkins Coie and research firm Fusion GPS, to obtain derogatory information on Donald Trump’s ties to Russia.
a) Neither the initial application in October 2016, nor any of the renewals, disclose or reference the role of the DNC, Clinton campaign, or any party/campaign in funding Steele’s efforts, even though the political origins of the Steele dossier were then known to senior DOJ and FBI officials.
b) The initial FISA application notes Steele was working for a named U.S. person, but does not name Fusion GPS and principal Glenn Simpson, who was paid by a U.S. law firm (Perkins Coie) representing the DNC (even though it was known by DOJ at the time that political actors were involved with the Steele dossier). The application does not mention Steele was ultimately working on behalf of — and paid by — the DNC and Clinton campaign, or that the FBI had separately authorized payment to Steele for the same information.
2) The Carter Page FISA application also cited extensively a September 23, 2016, Yahoo News article by Michael Isikoff, which focuses on Page’s July 2016 trip to Moscow. This article does not corroborate the Steele dossier because it is derived from information leaked by Steele himself to Yahoo News. The Page FISA application incorrectly assesses that Steele did not directly provide information to Yahoo News. Steele has admitted in British court filings that he met with Yahoo News — and several other outlets — in September 2016 at the direction of Fusion GPS. Perkins Coie was aware of Steele’s initial media contacts because they hosted at least one meeting in Washington D.C. in 2016 with Steele and Fusion GPS where this matter was discussed.
a) Steele was suspended and then terminated as an FBI source for what the FBI defines as the most serious of violations — an unauthorized disclosure to the media of his relationship with the FBI in an October 30, 2016, Mother Jones article by David Corn. Steele should have been terminated for his previous undisclosed contacts with Yahoo and other outlets in September — before the Page application was submitted to the FISC in October — but Steele improperly concealed from and lied to the FBI about those contacts.
b) Steele’s numerous encounters with the media violated the cardinal rule of source handling — maintaining confidentiality — and demonstrated that Steele had become a less than reliable source for the FBI.
3) Before and after Steele was terminated as a source, he maintained contact with DOJ via then-Associate Deputy Attorney General Bruce Ohr, a senior DOJ official who worked closely with Deputy Attorneys General Yates and later Rosenstein. Shortly after the election, the FBI began interviewing Ohr, documenting his communications with Steele. For example, in September 2016, Steele admitted to Ohr his feelings against thencandidate Trump when Steele said he “was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being president.” This clear evidence of Steele’s bias was recorded by Ohr at the time and subsequently in official FBI files — but not reflected in any of the Page FISA applications.
a) During this same time period, Ohr’s wife was employed by Fusion GPS to assist in the cultivation of opposition research on Trump. Ohr later provided the FBI with all of his wife’s opposition research, paid for by the DNC and Clinton campaign via Fusion GPS. The Ohrs’ relationship with Steele and Fusion GPS was inexplicably concealed from the FISC.
4) According to the head of the FBI’s counterintelligence division, Assistant Director Bill Priestap, corroboration of the Steele dossier was in its “infancy” at the time of the initial Page FISA application. After Steele was terminated, a source validation report conducted by an independent unit within FBI assessed Steele’s reporting as only minimally corroborated. Yet, in early January 2017, Director Comey briefed President-elect Trump on a summary of the Steele dossier, even though it was — according to his June 2017 testimony — “salacious and unverified.” While the FISA application relied on Steele’s past record of credible reporting on other unrelated matters, it ignored or concealed his anti-Trump financial and ideological motivations. Furthermore, Deputy Director McCabe testified before the Committee in December 2017 that no surveillance warrant would have been sought from the FISC without the Steele dossier information.
5) The Page FISA application also mentions information regarding fellow Trump campaign advisor George Papadopoulos, but there is no evidence of any co-operation or conspiracy between Page and Papadopoulos. The Papadopoulos information triggered the opening of an FBI counterintelligence investigation in late July 2016 by FBI agent Pete Strzok. Strzok was reassigned by the Special Counsel’s Office to FBI Human Resources for improper text messages with his mistress, FBI Attorney Lisa Page (no known relation to Carter Page), where they both demonstrated a clear bias against Trump and in favour of Clinton, whom Strzok had also investigated. The Strzok/Lisa Page texts also reflect extensive discussions about the investigation, orchestrating leaks to the media, and include a meeting with Deputy Director McCabe to discuss an “insurance” policy against President Trump’s election.

Question: At Least 18 Dead After Gunmen Seize A Cafe For Hours In Burkina Faso

represent this text to find a news title for it!

Gunmen stormed an upscale cafe overnight in Burkina Faso's capital, Ouagadougou, strafing the building with bullets and barricading themselves inside for hours. By the time security forces reclaimed the restaurant around dawn Monday, at least 18 people had been killed and eight others wounded, according to local authorities.
The West African nation's communications minister, Remis Dandjinou, told reporters Monday that by daybreak, two of the attackers had been killed and several foreign nationals were among the dead. In separate statements, officials in Paris and Ankara confirmed the victims include a French citizen and Turkish citizen, while another Turk was injured in the violence.
While Burkinabe officials blamed Islamist militants for the attack on the Turkish cafe, no one group immediately claimed responsibility.
"I salute the bravery of our security and defense forces whose engagement allowed us to neutralize the terrorists," Burkinabe President Roch Marc Christian Kabore said in a statement, as translated by CNN.
"The struggle against terrorism is a lengthy fight," he added. "That is why I am calling for vigilance, solidarity and unity of the whole nation to face up to the cowardice of our enemies."
In a news conference Monday, Dandjinou detailed the night's bloody events, which opened when he says about three to four militants rolled up to the cafe on motorcycles around 9 p.m. local time. They opened fire on an outside seating area outside then moved indoors, where The New York Times notes a family had been celebrating a 9-year-old boy's birthday.
The newspaper reports the boy was hospitalized with injuries from the attack.
For Burkinabes, the attack on Aziz Istanbul cafe, which is popular with foreigners, prompts bitter memories of another bloody episode just over 18 months ago. In January last year, militants conducted an hours-long raid on a luxury hotel and a cafe just blocks away from Aziz Istanbul, ultimately killing some 30 people before being dislodged by security forces.
Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb, a militant group based in the region, claimed responsibility for that attack — as well as another deadly assault just months before in neighboring Mali.
Islamist groups have been active for years in the Sahel region, which includes Mali and Burkina Faso. As groups linked to al-Qaida have carried out attacks in the area, the Times points out that the United Nations peacekeeping mission to Mali "has become one of the most dangerous in the world."
The French government — which controlled Burkina Faso, then called Upper Volta, as a colony until 1960 — says President Emmanuel Macron met with Kabore on Monday to discuss the circumstances of the latest attack.
The pair of leaders also reaffirmed their commitment to the formation of an international security force in the Sahel region to "continue the fight against terrorist groups."

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — A capital murder charge has been dismissed against a North Texas man in the death of his 2-year-old daughter, after prosecutors learned her then-5-year-old brother said he caused her death.
Anthony Michael Sanders was accused of smothering his daughter, Ellie Mae, at their home in the Fort Worth suburb of Watauga in 2015. Investigators believed Sanders held his hand over her mouth out of anger for her interrupting his computer games.
Jailed since April 2016, Sanders denied responsibility. He said he found his daughter not breathing after his son reported she wouldn’t wake up.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports prosecutors recently learned the boy told his mother he was responsible. Investigators say the boy cried as he told them he accidentally rolled a heavy pillow onto his sister’s face while they played and it was too heavy for him to move.

Question: Bipartisan legislation could bring more competition to rural Western Slope health care markets

It's an issue that's been studied to death, but the problem seems very clear: Health insurance premiums on the individual marketplace on Colorado's Western Slope are insanely high and part of a trifecta of economic forces crippling small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Coupled with the high cost of living and tight housing market, health insurance rates for everyone who doesn't get their insurance through their employers — more than 50 percent of people statewide — are prohibitively high.
"What people are coming to realize on both sides of the aisle down here (at the State Legislature) is that this health insurance cost is never going to go away, so it's about time we start looking at the fundamental problems and not be so partisan about it," said Democrat Dylan Roberts, who represents Eagle and Routt counties.
Roberts is a prime House sponsor — along with Rep. Marc Catlin, R-Montrose — of HB-1384, a bipartisan bill that passed out of the House Health, Insurance & Environment Committee by an 8-5 vote on Tuesday, April 17, and to the House Appropriations Committee, which voted 8-5 on Monday, April 23, to send it along to the House floor.
“We have some of the best care in the world; we just don’t have access to it.”Chris RomerVail Valley Partnership Recommended Stories For You
On the Senate side, the bill is sponsored by Kerry Donovan, D-Vail, and Don Coram, R-Montrose.
There are currently 14 counties in Colorado, including Roberts' original home of Routt County (he now lives in Eagle), that have just one health insurance company available on Connect for Health Colorado, the state's individual-market health-insurance exchange. Eagle County has two companies available on the state exchange: Anthem and Kaiser.
If it passes both the House and Senate and is signed into law by Gov. John Hickenlooper, HB-1384 directs both the state Department of Health Care Policy and Financing and the Division of Insurance to come up with three different health insurance plans using the state's existing health care infrastructure in an effort to create more competition in those underserved counties.
The three plans need to be submitted to the legislature by February of next year, which would give lawmakers the rest of the next legislative session (ending in May 2019) to pick a plan and run a bill that would then finally begin lowering rates by generating more competition.
Plan Options
One of the plans the bill requires a proposal for is an option to allow Coloradans to purchase a health insurance plan through the state's Medicaid department. It's hoped a so-called "public option" in Colorado would create competition and drive down rates for private plans.
Right now in Eagle County, insurance brokers say a family of five pays about $2,800 a month for an Anthem plan or $2,000 a month for a Kaiser plan on the individual market — much less if they can keep their income below certain levels and qualify for Advanced Premium Tax Credits under the Affordable Care Act. But those income levels are very low for a expensive place such as Vail.
"Congress could help stabilize these insurance costs, but that's unlikely to happen anytime soon," Roberts said. "Many middle-class families must choose between paying for health insurance and paying for housing, child care or college tuition. This bill will set forth detailed options for how we can bring badly needed competition to the market."
The second plan his bill requires the two state departments to study is a public-private partnership plan modeled after the federal Children's Health Insurance Program, or CHIP.
And the third option the bill studies is what Roberts dubs a regional or community-based co-op plan that would allow small companies to band together to negotiate a group plan with a private insurance company. Sponsored by a chamber or business association, the group would then have the increased buying power of a much larger company such as Vail Resorts.
"This model works in other places like Wyoming and Missouri, and we're trying to see if we can duplicate it in Colorado," said Chris Romer, of the Vail Valley Partnership. "But there are a lot more rules in Colorado that make it harder, and at the federal level, they're trying to make it easier and we as a state are pushing back on it. That doesn't make a lot of sense."
ALL SOLUTIONS NEED TO BE EXPLORED
Romer said he's talked to Colorado's Interim Insurance Commissioner Michael Conway, who last month wrote a letter to the U.S. Department of Labor opposing rule changes that would make "multiple-employer welfare groups" easier to set up. Conway's concern is the plans would allow for coverage exemptions that pull healthy people out of other plans.
Romer said all possible solutions need to be explored aggressively to bring down health insurance costs on the Western Slope.
"In an environment with an already high cost of living and with employee retention challenges increasingly reliant on entrepreneurs, health care and housing are two issues that are the straws that break the camel's back in terms of being able to truly grow and scale an entrepreneurial business here," Romer said. "We have some of the best care in the world; we just don't have access to it."
Roberts said the $360,000 price tag for the bill is what generated the five "no" votes in committee, but that's the cost of the two state departments hiring accountants and the economists to do the actuarial analysis of the three plans. And he points out the current budget has the money to come up with a legislative solution for one of the Western Slope's most intractable problems.

The head of Ukraine's security services, Vasyl Hrytsak, told reporters the "murder" had been staged to expose Russian agents.
"According to information received by the Ukrainian security service, the killing of Russian journalist Arkady Babchenko was ordered by the Russian security services themselves," Mr Hrytsak said.
Mr Babchenko was reportedly found by his wife bleeding at the entrance to his block of flats, shot several times in the back, and died in an ambulance.
The journalist apparently did not tell his wife that the murder had been staged. "Special apologies to my wife," he said. It was not clear exactly how the fake murder was staged.

Question: Man guilty of killing ex-neighbors who reported he squatted

EVERETT, Wash. (AP)  A man was convicted Wednesday of killing his former neighbors and hiding their bodies in the woods northeast of Seattle after one of them told authorities he was squatting at the house he sold following a devastating landslide.
A jury found John Reed, 55, guilty of first-degree murder in the death of Patrick Shunn, 45, and second-degree murder in the death Monique Patenaude, 46, and the Daily Herald reported . He faces life in prison.
Prosecutors said Reed killed Patenaude and then fatally shot Shunn several hours later as he arrived home on April 11, 2016, near Oso, a small community that was the site of the nation's worst landslide in 2014.
Reed had an ongoing feud with the couple and threatened to shoot them after they cut brush next to his property in 2013, according to prosecutors. Deputies described Reed as an aggressive neighbor.

After the landslide, Reed sold his property to the county under a flood-mitigation program. Several weeks before Patenaude was killed, she reported that Reed had been illegally squatting, according to charging documents.
Reed testified last week that he shot Patenaude and Shunn in self-defense after the couple confronted him at his former property. He claimed he "panicked" and had his brother, Tony Reed, help him bury the couple's bodies and stash the couple's vehicles.
The brothers fled to Mexico after the slayings. Mexican authorities arrested John Reed more than two months later.
Tony Reed had already turned himself in and led detectives to the couple's gravesite. He was sentenced to 14 months in jail after pleading guilty to rendering criminal assistance.
Prosecutors decided not to seek the death penalty against John Reed. He also was convicted of unlawful possession of a firearm after a trial that lasted over two weeks in Snohomish County Superior Court.

Question: Premier League: Manchester City's Pep Guardiola says he wouldn't give up on title if he was in United's position

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title.

Manchester City: Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has said his team would not concede defeat in the Premier League title race if they were in the same position as Manchester United.
United manager Jose Mourinho conceded the title to runaway leaders City for the first time on Friday with the 20-times champions running second, 15 points behind City with 13 games left.
Asked ahead of City's trip to seventh-placed Burnley on Saturday if he would give up in Mourinho's position, Guardiola said: "No, I don't think so. That is not going to happen.
"We have shown even in our two defeats this season that we will try until the very end. We play every game to give sense to what we are doing. I know the 15-point distance is quite big at the moment. It's the same gap from six games ago.
"In football and in sport, anything can happen. You are good today but tomorrow you are bad. The most important thing we have done is to focus. In my experience, until everything is done, you have to be prepared for anything to happen."
City have endured a hectic season having progressed to the Champions League last 16, the FA Cup fifth round and the League Cup final apart from dominating the league and Guardiola said he would rest his players following the Burnley game.
"After the game against Burnley until next Wednesday the players will be resting," Guardiola added.
"The players can do whatever they want, they can travel or whatever. If they want to go and find some sunshine or stay here in Manchester, they can do what they like. They are free."

Pep Guardiola's New Year’s resolution for 2017? Stop conceding early goals.
Man City have let in six goals in the first 15 minutes in the Premier League this season and Liverpool were the latest to benefit.
The worst thing was, the Reds profited from a wasteful free-kick from Yaya Toure and 17 seconds, were 1-0 up after yet another Aleksandar Kolarov mistake.
It was deja vu and the perfect way to sum up City’s struggles in 2016.
City will face a different challenge when Burnley visit the Etihad and Guardiola will have prepared his side for an avalanche of second balls after their struggles in the reverse fixture in November.
Leroy Sane and skipper Vincent Kompany remain out, but Nolito could come back into contention after being left out of the squad against Liverpool.
In other news, Guardiola has confirmed that Gabriel Jesus has landed after officially becoming a City player.

Question: ‘Pizzagate’ gunman says in video he’s standing up for kids

WASHINGTON (AP) — A man who walked into a Washington pizzeria with an assault rifle to investigate internet rumors dubbed “pizzagate” recorded a message on his drive from North Carolina telling his daughters the world is corrupt and he’s standing up for children like them.
The recording from Edgar Maddison Welch’s cellphone was obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press ahead of his sentencing set for June 22.
In the 2 ½ minute recording, Welch speaks to a dashboard-mounted camera as he drives with one hand on the steering wheel along a tree-lined highway, telling his “girls” that he loves them “more than anything in this world.”
“I can’t let you grow up in a world that’s so corrupt by evil without at least standing up for you, for other children just like you,” he said. He tells them he wants to protect people who can’t protect themselves.
Welch, who is from Salisbury, North Carolina, pleaded guilty in March to interstate transportation of a firearm and assault with a dangerous weapon. Prosecutors will drop a third charge, possessing a firearm during a crime of violence, which had carried a mandatory minimum prison term of five years.
As part of his guilty plea Welch has acknowledged entering the Comet Ping Pong restaurant Dec. 4 with an AR-15 assault rifle and a revolver. He also acknowledged driving to the restaurant from North Carolina to investigate a conspiracy theory about Democrats harboring child sex slaves there. Patrons fled when they saw Welch enter the restaurant, and when he encountered a locked storage closet he fired multiple times. No one was injured.
Prosecutors, who are calling for Welch to spend 4 ½ years in prison, said in court documents that the video shows Welch “was lucid, deadly serious, and very aware that his planned confrontation would likely leave him dead or in jail.”
Welch’s attorney Dani Jahn, argued that he should be sentenced to 1 ½ years in prison. She wrote that Welch, who previously worked as an emergency medical technician and volunteered in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake, is an involved parent to his 7-year-old stepdaughter and 4-year-old daughter.
In his 1-page, handwritten letter filed with the court Tuesday but dated June 2, Welch wrote that he “came to D.C. with the intent of helping people I believed were in dire need of assistance, and to bring an end to a corruption that I truly felt was harming innocent lives.” He wrote that he wanted to apologize and that he acted without considering the repercussions of his actions or the possible harm.
“It was never my intention to harm or frighten innocent lives, but I realize now just how foolish and reckless my decision was,” he wrote.

Question: Men's Matters group pays emotional visit to Bletchley Park

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

A men’s charity provided one of its members with an emotional trip last week as it visited a Second World War codebreaking site.
Men’s Matters sent twenty members to Bletchley Park, where British and Allied experts worked to crack German communications. They travelled with Sir Michael Parkinson, the charity’s patron.
One of its members, 86-year-old Alan Smith, of Maidenhead, had a friend who worked at the facility during the war.
Gerald Openshaw, who died a few years ago, was employed in such secrecy that even his wife had no idea where he worked.
Alan was helped in finding Gerald’s memorial brick, which is part of a wall that bears the names of people who served at Bletchley.
He said: “I felt very emotional when we found Gerald's brick and great pride when he was referred to as a ‘veteran’.”
The trip, which took place on Thursday, April 19, is part of the anti-loneliness charity’s new programme of activities, which includes visits to Parliament and Thames boat trips.

Question: Comey book sells more than 600,000 copies in first week

NEW YORK — James Comey’s “A Higher Loyalty” had a very big opening week.
Flatiron Books announced Tuesday that sales topped 600,000 copies, a number that includes print, audio and e-books. The former FBI director’s memoir has been one of the year’s most anticipated releases. It includes his accounts of investigating Hillary Clinton’s emails and of his awkward encounters with President Donald Trump.
Comey, fired by Trump a year ago, has likened the president to a crime boss who values personal loyalty over service to the country. Published April 17, “A Higher Loyalty” is the hottest political book since Michael Wolff’s million-selling “Fire and Fury,” which came out in January.
Both books were published by imprints of Macmillan.

Washington
JAMES Comey's memoir surged to the top of Amazon's bestseller list over the weekend after US President Donald Trump attacked the former FBI director in a string of angry tweets - and the book isn't even published yet.
A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership, due for release on April 17, had already been hovering in the top-20 in the months since it went up for preorder.
But it got an unexpected bump when Mr Trump lashed out at Mr Comey, jumping from No 15 on Saturday morning to No 1 by Sunday evening.
sentifi.com Market voices on:
Mr Trump's decision to fire Mr Comey last May reemerged in the news after attorney general Jeff Sessions, acting on Mr Trump's stated wishes, fired former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe on Friday night shortly before Mr McCabe's planned retirement.
Mr Trump tweeted his satisfaction with the move, accusing "Sanctimonious James Comey" of covering up "lies and corruption" in the FBI and leaking information to the media. He also blasted special counsel Robert Mueller's probe of Russian interference in the 2016 election, which was triggered by Mr Comey's ouster, saying there should never have been an investigation.
(The Washington Post's Glenn Kessler gave a detailed breakdown of the inaccuracies and misleading statements in Mr Trump's weekend tweetstorm, which also targeted other officials.)
Among other things, Mr Trump criticised Mr Comey's practice as FBI director of writing memos about his conversations with the president. "Can we call them Fake Memos?" Mr Trump tweeted.
Mr Comey is expected to discuss the substance of some of his meetings with Mr Trump in A Higher Loyalty, though almost nothing about the book's contents has been revealed publicly.
Mr Comey responded to some of Mr Trump's attacks on Saturday with what read like a subtle plug for the memoir.
"Mr President, the American people will hear my story very soon. And they can judge for themselves who is honourable and who is not," he tweeted.
As of early Monday morning, A Higher Loyalty still held Amazon's No 1 spot, trailed by Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin's War on America and the Election of Donald Trump by Michael Isikoff and David Corn.
Also in the top-10 were A Wrinkle in Time, Madeleine L'Engle's fantasy novel that was recently released as a blockbuster film, and A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking, the renowned theoretical physicist who died last week.
There's never been any doubt about Mr Comey's book flying off the shelves. Intrigue has been building since last summer when his literary agents revealed he had begun work on a manuscript.
Mr Comey has occasionally teased the book on social media. He recently tweeted a picture of himself recording the audiobook version, along with the caption "Lordy, this time there will be a tape," a reference to Mr Trump's false suggestion that he had recorded his interactions with Mr Comey.
The last inside account of the Trump administration, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, created a frenzy in Washington when it dropped in early January. The book by Michael Wolff, which was riddled with gossip and inaccuracies, debuted at No 1 on the New York Times bestseller list and remains the list's top-selling hardcover nonfiction book.
The publisher of Mr Comey's memoir, Flatiron Books, says Mr Comey will share "never-before-told experiences from some of the highest-stakes situations of his career" and offer an "unprecedented entry into the corridors of power".
Flatiron is taking extraordinary precautions to prevent any leaks, as Politico reported last week. Rather than circulating print drafts, the publisher is using a password-protected electronic system allowing only those involved in the project to access it. The book is also being stored under a code name, and warehouse workers who ship it will be asked to sign nondisclosure agreements, according to Politico. WP

Question: Samson the Mini-Horse, the perfect pet when you're short on stable space

Samson the dwarf miniature horse carries himself with all the pride and class that one would expect of an equine three-times his size. Standing about two-feet tall and weighing in at 150 pounds, he slowly paces around his James Island home, stepping out of his custom-built stable to greet anyone who might be passing by. With a shock of white hair crowning his head, Samson has a quiet, yet confident disposition, always prepared to take a snack from the hand of anyone generous enough to offer.
Miniature horses such as Samson, also known as Sam to his friends, first became commonplace in the royal courts of Europe, according to the International Museum of the Horse. Bred from "regular-sized" horses for nobility in the 1600s, miniature horses eventually made their way to America and were used to pull carts within the cramped confines of coal mines. Fortunately, these pint-sized equines were replaced by mechanical equipment, freeing them up to become pets for the special few who see the benefit of a horse you can easily transport in your mini-van.

Sue Brikmier, Samson's owner, remembers holding him in her arms shortly after he was born. As a young girl, Brikmier had always liked horses and remembers begging her father for a pony of her own. As she grew up, Brikmier's desire to own a horse faded — at least until she met Samson.
"He's the perfect size for my yard," Brikmier says as she pats Samson on his back. "He's not for anything but loving."
Miniature horses affected by dwarfism can live up to 50 years, surviving about one-third longer than large horses. Nearing his 10th birthday, Samson is roughly equivalent to 35 years of age in human years, according to the Guide Horse Foundation. Realizing the longevity of her pet of choice, Brikmier jokes that she'll have to put Samson in her will depending on how long he's able to romp around her backyard.
With short legs and a wide belly that pokes out on the sides, Samson eats Raisin Bran and food pellets. Although he's not a fan of carrots, Samson won't pass up the occasional sweet or peppermint. On Halloween, Samson will walk up the street and snack on candy collected by kids in the neighborhood. He's also likely to climb up into Brikmier's lap if she lets him.
"He doesn't do a lot of horse things," Brikmier says of Samson, as her two small dogs, Sadie and Yoda, frantically race around the yard and bark at anything they might perceive as a threat.
When it comes time for Samson to stretch his legs and see the sites around the neighborhood, Brikmier simply straps on a dog leash and strolls him around the block. While there aren't any definite plans to find another miniature companion for Samson, Brikmier already has the perfect name picked out for a female counterpart: Delilah.
"He's not timid," Brikmier says, her yard full of sunflowers and "Horse Crossing" signs, the front door bearing a life-sized decal of Samson. "He doesn't know whether he's a horse, a dog, or a person."

Move over Wilbur and Babe.
Instead, meet Boomer.
“He loves to cuddle when we watch TV and he comes up and sits in our lap,” Glenda Underwood, Boomer’s owner, said.
Boomer is a Juliana Mini Pig who loves his Cheerios and….
“He loves to be forked,” Underwood said.
Underwood is originally from Pullman. Glenda and her husband currently live in California, but love to come to Coeur d’Alene with their rock star pig.
“He has almost 900 followers on Instagram now,” Underwood said.
Boomer’s Instagram is filled with pictures of him and his best friend, Bodie, adventuring.
But the precious pig is more than just an Internet celebrity.
“We got him for our son for his birthday because he wanted to have an animal to sleep with him at night so he's his emotional support pig,” she said.
And she’s going to take it one step further.
“We would like to have him be a therapy pig, maybe take him to the children's hospitals or the retirement homes,” Underwood said.

Question: Steelers wrap up AFC North title, set up showdown with Pats

Represent this text to find a news title for it:

PITTSBURGH — Ben Roethlisberger's record-setting day finished with a carry just as valuable as any of the franchise-record 66 passes he threw.
As the Pittsburgh Steelers poured onto the Heinz Field turf to celebrate a frantic 39-38 victory over Baltimore that wrapped up their third AFC North title in four years, Roethlisberger grabbed the familiar No. 50 jersey of injured linebacker Ryan Shazier and joined in the party.
An emotionally draining week for the Steelers ended with Shazier recovering from spinal surgery in a nearby hospital but still very much in the middle of things. Just like always.
"We love our brother," Roethlisberger said. "We wanted to get this one for him, and I'm glad we did."
Barely.
The Steelers (11-2) blew an early 14-point lead and found themselves trailing by 11 going into the fourth before exploding for 19 points over the final 15 minutes, the last three coming on Chris Boswell's 46-yard field goal with 42 seconds left.
"I think championship teams find ways to win," Roethlisberger said.
Having an offence that is starting to peak after a sleepy start certainly helps. Roethlisberger threw for 506 yards and two scores to become the first player in NFL history to go over 500 yards passing three times in his career. Antonio Brown caught 11 passes for 213 yards to fuel an MVP candidacy that no longer feels so far-fetched, including gains of 57 and 34 yards in the fourth to spark Pittsburgh's comeback and running back Le'Veon Bell finished with 125 total yards and three scores.
"It's an amazing feeling, especially for Ryan Shazier," Brown said. "One of our brothers couldn't be out here today. Obviously, he is watching."
Shazier suffered his injury in the first quarter of a victory over Cincinnati last Monday. He underwent surgery on Wednesday and Roethlisberger visited him on Thursday.
"When you walk in and see him and see the smile and give him a huge, it really has taken that weight off and let us breathe a little easier," Roethlisberger said.
The Steelers have done their best to let Shazier know is very much a part of their run. Linebacker James Harrison borrowed a page from Shazier's pregame routine and warmed up shirtless even with the temperature hovering around freezing. Shazier's helmet and jersey spent the game on the bench and several Steelers wore cleats with a special design featuring Shazier's face and the popular #Shalieve hashtag.
"It was very emotional," linebacker Arthur Moats said. "Any time you can bring something to him that brings him some type of joy, some type of happiness, that's good. At the end of the day we're just trying to make sure he's good."
RAVENS ROCKED
Baltimore (7-6) meanwhile, saw its surge back to contention blunted after its defence spent the fourth quarter fruitlessly chasing Brown from one side of the field to the other.
"This is going to sting for a while," Ravens safety Eric Weddle said. "Especially the guys on defence because we care so much and we hold ourselves to a high standard."
The Ravens certainly didn't meet it after giving up 545 yards to the Steelers. Pittsburgh scored on its last four possessions. It's not like the Steelers were taking advantage of a short field. All eight of their scoring drives went at least 50 yards, including two of 80 or more.
"I think in the fourth quarter the defence dropped the ball tonight," linebacker Terrell Suggs said. "That's kind of been our thing all year, consistency."
SUPER SHOWDOWN
The win sets up the AFC game of the year next Sunday when Tom Brady and the defending Super Bowl champion New England Patriots visit. New England beat the Steelers twice last season, including a lopsided 36-17 blowout in the AFC title game.
"We're going to give respect where respect is due now," Pittsburgh centre Maurkice Pouncey said. "But they're not Superman. They lost this season, right?"
ALL-AROUND EFFORT
Brown, Bell and Roethlisberger hardly did it alone. Boswell has hit four game-winning field goals in the final minute in four of Pittsburgh's past five games. Tight ends Jessie James and Vance McDonald combined for 14 receptions for 149 yards. Even fullback Roosevelt Nix got in on the act, scoring his first career touchdown on a 1-yard reception in which he basically pulled the ball off Baltimore safety Tony Jefferson's chest as they tussled in the end zone.
"AB is gonna do what he do, I'm going to do what I do, Ben's gonna do what he do," Bell said. "But it's the guys who don't get the credit always that are the ones making the plays."
UP NEXT
Baltimore: Needs to win out if it wants to reach the post-season . The good news? Their final three opponents are a combined 8-34, including the 0-13 Cleveland Browns, who the Ravens visit next Sunday.
Pittsburgh: The Steelers have beaten Brady at Heinz Field just once in his career, a victory in the 2011 regular season.

Question: California regulator proposes regulating Uber like tour buses, limos

By Heather Somerville
California regulator proposes to regulate Uber like tour buses, limos
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Uber Technologies Inc should be classified as the same type of transportation as limousines and tour buses, a California regulator said on Monday in a proposal that could change how the ride-hailing company is regulated in its home state.
A commissioner for the California Public Utilities Commission, who had been tasked with investigating and formulating a proposal on regulating Uber, said in her proposed decision that the San Francisco-based company should be classified as a charter-party carrier, a transportation category known as TCP.
The category includes services offering pre-arranged transportation that do not necessarily involve a smartphone app, such as a sightseeing tour, and the services must comply with certain licensing, insurance and inspection requirements.
As part of the proposal, Uber would be required to pay three years of back fees, the maximum allowed under state law, although the decision published Monday did not specify an amount. There will be a period for public comment before the commission votes on the proposal.
The proposal found that Uber qualified as a TCP because it "exercises extensive control" over its drivers and passengers, and is not merely a technology company but rather is integral in the transportation of people. Uber built the software for hailing a ride, it calculates fares and bills riders, and conducts criminal background checks on drivers and inspections on vehicles.
The decision does not pertain to San Francisco-based Lyft Inc, Uber's biggest rival in California.
A spokesman for the CPUC declined to comment on the details of the proposal or its regulatory implications. An Uber spokesman said the company was still reviewing the proposal and plans to file a response.
The decision comes the day after a crash in Arizona in which an Uber self-driving car hit and killed a woman crossing the street, marking the first fatality caused by an autonomous vehicle.
It was not immediately clear how Uber's business would be affected if the commissioner's proposal is enacted, but TCPs have specific requirements for alcohol and drug testing and workers' compensation that could affect Uber's relationship with its independent contractor drivers.
The ruling said Uber has been operating as a TCP since at least October 2010, around the time it started in San Francisco.

A large shareholder of NTN Buzztime, which provides trivia games/electronic check-out technology to restaurants and bars, is considering a proxy fight after the Carlsbad company rejected his efforts to join its board of directors.
Sean Gordon, who owns nearly 9 percent of NTN’s shares, began seeking a board nomination in January because he was frustrated with the company’s lagging financial performance and stalled roll out of additional services to Buffalo Wild Wings.
“In 2014 they announced this heroic move forward with Buffalo Wild Wings where they were going to start doing menu/order/pay, jukebox music and promotional game playing,” said Gordon. “But this deployment has been delayed for one reason or another. It is now April 2018 and it is still not deployed.”
Gordon believes he can help the company improve its sales strategy, among other things, so it’s not so reliant on Buffalo Wild Wings, which makes up more than 40 percent of its $21.3 million in annual revenue.
NTN’s board rejected Gordon’s request to have his name put on the ballot as a board candidate at NTN’s upcoming annual shareholder meeting, which hasn’t been scheduled yet but typically takes place in June.
The company contends Gordon failed to meet stockholder nomination requirements in its bylaws.
“He did not meet the criteria for the proposal,” said NTN Chief Financial Officer Allen Wolff. “I would hope that he doesn’t (launch a proxy contest.) We have been very forthcoming in talking with him as well as other investors. Hopefully he has a chance in the future to either meet the requirements or continue to give us support from the sidelines.”
Gordon believes he has met the criteria. He is in discussions with his lawyers about whether to initiate a proxy battle.
“In their corporate bylaws they have numerous hurdles set up where you have to jump through the perfect hoop that is on fire with three tigers on the other side and come out safely,” he said, adding that he believes he has done that “to the best of my ability.”
The potential proxy fight comes as NTN tries to keep its shares from being delisted from the NYSE American stock exchange.
In March, it was notified that its $5.5 million in shareholder equity doesn’t meet the NYSE American minimum threshold. It has until March 2019 to boost shareholder equity, which could involve raising additional capital that could be complicated by a proxy fight.
Founded in 1985, NTN provides an interactive trivia game network to 2,730 restaurants and bars on a subscription basis – competing with privately held rivals E al Carte and Ziosk. It has struggled financially for years and hasn’t been profitable under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles since 1994, said William Gibson, an analyst with Roth Capital Partners.
The company’s turnaround strategy under Chief Executive Ram Krishnan centers on adding menu ordering, check-out and other services via tablet computers to its trivia game platform. It also aims to bring NTN to new markets such as senior centers, casinos and car dealerships.
During a 2016 investor conference, Krishnan predicted the company would have 10,000 subscriber sites in five years.
But the growth strategy hasn’t gained momentum so far. Revenue fell 4 percent last year as NTN lost 114 subscriber locations. NTN has narrowed its losses by cutting costs. Still, it lost $1.1 million last year. Its stock price has plunged more than 30 percent over the past 12 months.
NTN inked a deal with Buffalo Wild Wings to roll out expanded services including menu ordering, song and TV programming requests and bill pay beginning in 2015. But only 28 of the chain’s restaurants are using the system so far.
Part of the delay stems from Buffalo Wild Wings’ long running battle with an activist shareholder that resulted in its CEO leaving. Buffalo Wild Wings was sold in February to a holding company that owns Arby’s Restaurants.
The new owner has put the NTN project on hold while it gets up to speed.
“We have had challenges just in the ownership structure of Buffalo Wild Wings,” said Wolff, NTN’s chief financial officer. “We have done a lot to craft a solution around their requirements. We have brought it to market for them. What happens now is really up to the new ownership.”
Gordon said NTN has “put all its eggs in one basket” by being so focused on the delayed Buffalo Wild Wings deal.
“Every public announcement they say it’s Buffalo Wild Wings’ fault,” said Gordon a former managing director at Barclays Capital. “I don’t buy it. Maybe in time they can finally sign a long-term deal and deliver what they promised. But they have given up other opportunities, burned through a lot of cash and misguided the company along the way.”
Other shareholders also have complained about not being able to ask questions during quarterly conference calls and annual meetings, which are conducted online only.
“They would not let me speak on the conference call because I was labeled a hostile shareholder,” said Art Wirth, a retiree who has owned NTN shares for nearly 10 years. “I wasn’t hostile. All I wanted was to get results after so many years of the same people there not producing.”
David Zilberg, who objects to NTN’s executive compensation levels when the stock price is down, said the company got a restraining order against him after he repeatedly contacted management to complain.
“When it is unpleasant for them to hear, they shut you off,” said Zilberg, who owns about 30,000 shares.
NTN’s board met with Gordon in 2016 to discuss his increased participation in the company but decided it wasn’t a good fit, said NTN’s Wolff.
“We continue to keep an open and hopefully constructive dialog with Sean and other investors,” he said. “We are focused on really transitioning the company from a one dimensional entertainment product and business to a multi-dimensional platform company.”

Question: Is this the end of the road for IGA?

IGA stores might not have a future if the Government starts to target the way supplier Metcash behaves.
IGA stores might not have a future if the Government starts to target the way supplier Metcash behaves.
THE future of your local IGA has just got a lot more cloudy. The Government has signalled it will crack down on the struggling supermarket system even as it loses market share to Aldi, Coles and Woolworths.
Before we see why your IGA could be in strife, we need to look at how IGAs work.
You probably know the I in IGA stands for independent. What you might not know is that almost all IGAs depend on a big grocery wholesaler called Metcash. Metcash supplies them with the groceries they sell (except in Tasmania, it's different down there). But Metcash is now in the Government's sights, and that could squeeze the local IGA.
Metcash always seems to be a few years behind the big two supermarkets. You might remember a few years back Coles and Woolworths got in big trouble for the way they were treating their suppliers.
There was a ruckus and a Grocery Code of Conduct was set up to prevent it from happening again. The Grocery Code is a weird law - you have to agree to be part of it, but once you agree, it applies like any law. Aldi, Coles, Woolies all agreed to abide by the system and it has apparently made a positive difference. Their suppliers are happier now.
But Metcash opted out of the Grocery Code. And now the Government is after them. It commissioned a review on how the Grocery Code is working, and the draft report singles out Metcash for its behaviour towards the farmers and food manufacturers that fill IGA shelves.
"The review received complaints from suppliers concerning the conduct of Metcash, including issues relating to unilateral demands, forensic accounting practices to offsetting amounts owed without the supplier's consent, failure to comply with promotional terms, and requiring payments above reasonable costs to conduct study tours," the draft report says.
"The review identified ongoing issues between the wholesaler and its suppliers. Metcash should become a signatory to the Grocery Code."
The draft report could change, and even then the Government doesn't have to accept the recommendations. But it seems very likely Metcash will soon find itself with its back to the wall.

The narrow aisles of the IGA were once a big part of Australians' grocery shopping lives. But that has changed and IGA is slowly becoming a victim of our enthusiasm for Aldi. Metcash now has around 7 per cent market share and dropping.
Is this end for your local IGA?
The review outlines the problem - Metcash and IGA are behind the times.
"With increased price competition, independent retailers and Metcash have faced a steady decline in their turnover over the past five years. Questions have also been raised about whether its traditional wholesale model remains suitable for adapting to changes in consumer habits," the review says.
ADVANCE FAIRLY
Everyone would agree that Metcash should treat suppliers fairly. But IGAs already struggle to compete on price with the big chains. Forcing Metcash to sign up to the code might make its groceries even pricier, and accelerate the decline of the humble IGA.
So it would be no surprise if Metcash wants to avoid the code. I asked Metcash spokesman Steve Ashe whether Metcash would still be viable if it had to sign up to the code, and if IGAs would have to shut down. He didn't answer those questions directly, but he didn't exactly show enthusiasm for fully signing up to the code.
"Our model is based around partnering and working closely with our suppliers. We believe we already comply with the parts of the Code that relate to us, and would consider signing up to components of the code that do not, lead to an adverse impact on the competitiveness of our independent retailers," he said.
Metcash can try to duck and weave, but the review suggests the Government should just shirt-front them if they do.
"In the event Metcash continues to remain outside of the Grocery Code, the Review recommends that the Government introduce a separate mandatory code of conduct containing the same substantive terms as the current Code (together with any amendments adopted as a consequence of Government accepting recommendations in this Report) with targeted application to Metcash," the review says.
That struck me as a fairly harsh approach, and actually made me wonder how much influence Coles, Woolworths and Aldi might have had on this report. Nevertheless, it seems the Government will soon be on the warpath, and the threat of a mandatory code might be enough to force Metcash to sign up "voluntarily".
CAN'T WE ALL GET ALONG?
Treating your suppliers badly to get cheap prices is the easy way to get cheap prices, but not the only way. Aldi is renowned for having excellent supplier relationships and very low prices, and its market share rose from 7 per cent in 2014-15 to 9 per cent in 2017-18. It goes to show both sides can be happy if you're willing to do things differently.
The question is whether Metcash can do things differently, or if it is stuck in the mud. With Kaufland arriving soon and Costco expanding, competition in the Australian grocery sector is only getting more intense. For IGA to go on and thrive, Metcash and IGA need to shake things up, urgently.

Question: Federal Reserve to punish Wells Fargo for fake account scandal

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

The Federal Reserve is punishing Wells Fargo.
The Fed said late Friday that it will restrict the bank's growth in light of "widespread consumer abuses," including its notorious fake-accounts scandal.
Wells Fargo won't be allowed to get any bigger than it was at the end of last year until the Fed is satisfied that it has cleaned up its act.
"We cannot tolerate pervasive and persistent misconduct at any bank," outgoing Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen said in a statement. Friday is her last day on the job.
Wells Fargo will replace three board members by April and a fourth by the end of the year. In addition, the bank must improve its risk management.
The bank agreed to the Fed's conditions under what's known as a consent decree.

In a statement, Wells Fargo said it is "confident" it can meet the Fed's requirements.
Wells Fargo has admitted that its workers responded to wildly unrealistic sales goals by creating 3.5 million potentially fake accounts. The bank has also said it forced up to 570,000 customers into unneeded auto insurance.

Protestors made some noise this morning in downtown Des Moines, outside a Wells Fargo stockholders meeting.
The protesters are blasting the bank over its business practices. Federal regulators recently slapped the bank with a $1 billion fine for loan abuses. Wells Fargo President and CEO Tim Sloan apologized in a video statement released last October.
“I am deeply sorry for the unacceptable sales practices in our retail bank and other mistakes that we’ve made. There is simply no excuse for what happened,” Sloan said. He echoed those remarks this morning. Sloan told investors that rebuilding trust is the company’s top priority. The protestors are calling for Wells Fargo to fire Sloan and the company’s entire board of directors.
In Iowa alone, Wells Fargo has around 16,000 employees.

Question: 6 Unanswered Questions After Michael Flynn's Resignation

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title

After multiple public statements from the White House, there are still numerous unanswered questions surrounding Michael Flynn's Monday-night resignation from his position as national security adviser.
Flynn is under fire for a discussion he had with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak on the day that the U.S. announced sanctions for cyber hacking that took place during the U.S. election.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer characterized the resignation as being about "eroding trust" between President Trump and Flynn, rather than a legal issue, and he said it was Trump's decision to have Flynn step down. House Speaker Paul Ryan also said the resignation was Trump's call. Those accounts contradict earlier remarks from White House adviser Kellyanne Conway, who said the move was Flynn's.
Here are six the questions we still have about the events:
1. What exactly did Flynn say about U.S. sanctions in his call with Kislyak?
Spicer maintained Tuesday that Flynn being asked to step down was about "trust" and that there was "nothing wrong or inappropriate" about Flynn's call with the ambassador. There is a transcript of the call produced by the intelligence community, NPR has confirmed. It shows there was discussion about the sanctions. "Still, current and former administration officials familiar with the call said the transcript was ambiguous enough that Mr. Trump could have justified either firing or retaining Mr. Flynn," the New York Times reported.
Flynn briefed Vice President Pence before Pence made a round of TV appearances Jan. 15 in which he denied Flynn discussed the sanctions in the call. White House press secretary Sean Spicer said on Jan. 13 that Flynn told him the call was to convey Christmas greetings, condolences for a plane crash that killed members of a Russian Military choir, Russian talks about the war in Syria and logistics for a post-inauguration call between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In his resignation letter, Flynn apologized for giving the vice president and others "incomplete information regarding my phone calls with the Russian Ambassador."
2. Did Flynn's conversation influence Russia's decision not to retaliate with sanctions of its own?
The Obama administration announced sanctions on Dec. 29 in response to findings that Russia used cyberattacks during the presidential campaign in an effort to assist Trump. The administration expected Russia to retaliate, but it never did. At the time, Trump tweeted glowingly about Putin's decision not to react.
3. Why wait until now to ask for a resignation?
NPR's Carrie Johnson reports that the White House knew Flynn's public statements didn't match what occurred.
Johnson reports that former acting Attorney General Sally Yates, since fired over her stance to not enforce Trump's travel ban, told White House Counsel Donald McGahn about the call's actual contents. Spicer said Tuesday that the Justice Department notified White House counsel on Jan. 26 and that the president was notified immediately.
Spicer said that the White House has been "reviewing and evaluating this issue on a daily basis" for a few weeks and that Flynn has been questioned on multiple occasions.
As the Washington Post notes, though, on Friday Trump gave reporters the impression that he "was not familiar with a Washington Post report that revealed that Flynn had not told the truth about the calls."
4. Who was behind the initial leak?
Who was the first person to share that Flynn had spoken to the Russian ambassador? Trump himself asked Tuesday morning in a tweet, "Why are there so many illegal leaks coming out of Washington?" Spicer echoed concerns about the leak in his briefing.
The Washington Post's Callum Borchers has three theories on "why the Trump White House keeps leaking":
They can't help but gossip,
It's all distraction, getting media to pay attention to "who has power, rather than what the people in power are actually doing," or
Bait for negative coverage so that it can continue to "cast the media as a political opponent."
But it's also possible, if not likely, that the leaks on this issue came from the intelligence community or Justice Department. That could mean that there are people in the government and national-security infrastructure who had genuine concerns about Flynn and how Trump's White House is being run.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., blasted the leaks in a hallway interview on Tuesday, NPR's Susan Davis reports.
"Here's what I know: Gen. Flynn did not break the law talking to the Russia ambassador, in fact that's his job," Nunes said. "Who did break the law is whoever recorded this, unmasked it and leaked it, that is clearly multiple violations."
5. Who will replace Flynn?
Spicer said in a briefing Tuesday afternoon the president is "currently evaluating a group of strong candidates."
Three are thought to be the leading contenders:
Ret. Lt. Gen. Joseph Kellogg , the acting national security adviser, named with Flynn's resignation;
, the acting national security adviser, named with Flynn's resignation; Ret. Vice Adm. Robert Harward , the former deputy director of CENTCOM during the Obama administration. He's a former Navy SEAL who grew up in Iran; and
, the former deputy director of CENTCOM during the Obama administration. He's a former Navy SEAL who grew up in Iran; and Ret. Gen. David Petraeus, the former CIA director in the Obama administration who was sentenced to two years probation and had to pay a $100,000 fine for sharing classified information with a woman he was having an affair with. His probation expires in April.
Also in the running is John Kelly, who was recently confirmed as Trump's homeland security secretary, NPR's Tom Bowman reports.
But, Bowman reports, the smart money is on Harward for now.
6. Will Trump continue to speak with Flynn anyway?
Trump is known to pick up his cell phone. And Flynn is someone who was one of Trump's closest and most trusted national-security advisers during the campaign.
Flynn surely has that number. And there's some precedent for it. Trump has continued communication with other former aides and adviser, including Corey Lewandowski, who was was fired as Trump's campaign manager in June.

Question: Judiciary Democrat's rebuttal to Nunes memo accuses House GOP of obstructing Russia probe

(CNN) The top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee is refuting the Republican memo alleging FBI abuses of surveillance authority, accusing House Republicans of being "part and parcel to an organized effort to obstruct" special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe.
New York Rep. Jerry Nadler released an analysis Saturday as a rebuttal to the Republican memo, spearheaded by House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes, which was released Friday.
Nadler, who has viewed the classified materials that form the basis of the Republican memo, argues the FISA court had "probable cause" to believe Page was "an agent of foreign power" and that nothing in the Nunes memo proves that the government did not have enough evidence beyond the dossier to seek a FISA warrant.
The Nunes memo accuses the FBI of abusing its authority in applying for a FISA warrant to conduct surveillance on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. It also alleges that then-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe told the House Intelligence Committee that the surveillance warrant would not have been sought without the disputed opposition research dossier on Trump and Russia written by ex-British intelligence officer Christopher Steele.
Nadler's analysis called that claim "deliberately misleading and deeply wrong on the law," noting that the Nunes memo itself says the FBI counterintelligence investigation was triggered by information on Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos in July 2016, before the Page FISA application was filed.

Here's what's behind the disputed four-page document and its potential fallout The buildup is over, and the memo is out. So what does the newly released four-page document from House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes and his committee staff mean for the Russia investigation, key figures at the Justice Department and President Donald Trump?
Did the Nunes memo undermine its own core argument? Beyond the controversy over the timing, wisdom and true purpose of its Friday release, the Republican memo alleging anti-Trump corruption at the FBI and Justice Department contains one remarkable detail that undermines its core assertion.

Analysis: The memo's most interesting part is Trump's reaction On Friday, we finally got the much-promised memo crafted by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) that allegedly blows the top off of the "deep state" conspiracy within the Justice Department aimed at discrediting Donald Trump's presidency.

The USA is sweltering through what will likely be its hottest May on record, according to a preliminary analysis of weather data.
National Weather Service meteorologist Victor Murphy said May 2018 should break the record set in May 1934 during the Dust Bowl.
The heat has been particularly noteworthy in the central U.S., including the upper Midwest and northern Plains, where temperatures have run some 5-8 degrees above average, according to weather.us meteorologist Ryan Maue.
On Monday, the temperature in Minneapolis soared to a record 100 degrees, the city's earliest 100-degree reading on record, buckling roads, straining air conditioners and triggering air quality alerts.
Other cities seeing record-breaking heat over the past few days include Chicago, Milwaukee, Green Bay and Des Moines, Radiant Solutions reported.
Overall, in just the past few days more than 1,900 heat records have been broken or tied, weather.com said.
According to PRISM, the avg. monthly temp for the CONUS for May is 64.6F, thru 5/28. #NCEI shows the all-time CONUS record being 64.71F in May 1934. With blast furnace temps across much of CONUS next 2 days, the Dust Bowl era record should fall. pic.twitter.com/O1OmDd2VsZ — victor murphy (@wxmanvic) May 29, 2018
For folks in the Midwest, the crazy heat of May follows what had been an unusually cold April. In fact, for two states in the Upper Midwest — Iowa and Wisconsin — it was the coldest April since records began in 1895, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.
The Twin Cities saw their fourth-coldest April on record. Meteorologist Peter Mullinax of Planalytics said that Minneapolis' weather whiplash from April to May was the biggest on record, a rebound of almost 30 degrees.
Nationally, April 2018 was the USA's coldest April in 21 years.
Record-breaking snow also accompanied the cold in many areas, wreaking havoc with baseball schedules and seriously delaying the onset of spring.
During April, the average U.S. temperature was 48.9 degrees, which was 2.2 degrees below average, "making it the 13th-coldest April on record and the coldest since 1997," NOAA said.
Final weather data for May will be out in early June.
Entire Lower 48 USA has above average temperature for May 2018 except for rainy Florida and oddly enough California.

Question: Fisherman Finds Marijuana Brick Off Florida Coast

CBS News reported Tuesday that Florida native Jorge Bustamente and his parents were fishing off the coast of Pompano Beach, Florida, to celebrate his birthday when he reeled in a brick of marijuana.
Bustamente was enjoying his celebratory fishing trip when he first spotted an unidentified object floating in the weed line next to his boat. Upon pulling it out of the water, he discovered he was holding a large brick of marijuana. According to Newsweek, the weed line is “a massive gathering of seaweed or seagrass known for being a fishing hot spot.” This package, however, was not the type of seaweed he was expecting to find in the ocean.
Bustamente posted a photo of himself and his unexpected present on Instagram, jokingly captioning it, “Got an early birthday gift from Pablo Escobar…. Found it off Pompano floating in the weed line.” Pablo Escobar, however, the infamous Colombian drug kingpin, is renown for his illegal distribution of cocaine into the United States, and not so much weed.
Bustamente began his birthday fishing trip searching for Mahi Mahi and Kingfish, but was gifted with an even better story to tell, calling this experience a trip he “won’t forget for a long time.”
After posting his surprising find to Instagram, Bustamente contacted the Coast Guard about his discovery. While medical use is permitted, recreational marijuana use is still illegal in Florida, so Bustamente had to turn over his “gift” to the proper authorities. The Coast Guard confirmed that the substance was, in fact, a kilogram, or two pounds, of cannabis in tightly wrapped plastic and immediately contacted the Drug Enforcement Administration. It is still unknown where the brick came from or how long it was left floating in the water.
While finding illegal substances lost at sea is not a common occurrence, it is certainly not a phenomenon. Mass amounts of marijuana were discovered on the shore of West Beach in Santa Barbara back in April, according to CBS Los Angeles. Additionally, several parcels of the same substance were found off the Carlsbad Coast, all of which “were tied together with rope and tape.” Meanwhile, two smuggling ships were caught in the Caribbean carrying 2,600 pounds of cannabis. The drug-smugglers were stopped by the local Coast Guard in March and ended up detaining seven of the passengers on board the ship.

Question: 9-year-old shoots sister to death over video game controller

Represent this text to find a news title for it

A 9-year-old boy retrieved a gun from his parents' bedroom and shot his 13-year-old sister to death, authorities said, after the two got into an argument over a video game controller.
The incident occurred over the weekend in rural Monroe County, Mississippi, as the children's mother was preparing lunch in the kitchen, the country sheriff said.
"He wanted the controller, and I guess he knew where to find the gun," Sheriff Cecil Cantrell told CNN.
The boy grabbed a handgun, which was kept in a nightstand next to the bed, and shot the sister in the back of the head, the sheriff said.
"This is the first time I've ever dealt with any child that was shot like that," Cantrell said. "And I hope I never deal with it again."
The girl was taken to Le Bonheur Children's Hospital in Memphis, where she was pronounced dead Sunday.
The case is still under investigation and authorities have not filed charges.
"We are talking to the district attorney," Cantrell said.
