The Republican leaders of the House Judiciary and Oversight committees announced Friday they have wrapped up their review of the FBI's handling of the Hillary Clinton and Russia investigations, and raised concerns about the "thoroughness and impartiality" of the investigations.In a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker and Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz, House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte reiterate prior criticisms of the investigation. Among those critiques are former FBI Director James Comey's handling of the decision not to prosecute Clinton, as well as charges of political bias by now-former FBI agent Peter Strzok and former FBI lawyer Lisa Page.The lawmakers repeat their call for a special counsel to be appointed to investigate decisions made during both investigations and also what they call the "disparate way these two investigations were seemingly conducted."Notably, Goodlatte and Gowdy argue that special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation must be "trusted by Americans," writing "there has been no effort to discredit the work of the Special Counsel. Quite the opposite, whatever product is produced by the Special Counsel must be trusted by Americans and that requires asking tough but fair questions about investigative techniques both employed and not employed." 1444

'Tis the season to shop till you drop, but before you pull out your wallet, check out these tips on saving some cash.No, it’s not through couponing or searching for deals online. It starts with what you do when you walk through the doors of a store. Whether you're aware of it or not, a store is laid out in a very specific way to get you to spend more.Those huge shopping carts are always conveniently placed right as you walk in, but the small baskets seem harder to find. The store's hope is that you'll fill up that shopping cart with more items than if you had a small basket. Gone are the days of stores playing elevator music to create a sense of calmness. Now, it’s all about upbeat music to create a happy atmosphere, hoping you want to stay and shop longer. Just like speed bumps on a road, stores place tables, clothing racks and other obstacles around businesses to get customers to slow down and look at more items. How about those big signs that say, “buy one, get the next one half off?” Seems like a great deal, that is if you’re planning on buying two. If you only need one, buying another half off is still getting you to spend more than you were planning.And when you're ready to try on clothes, don't be tricked by the sale rack that’s usually placed right by the dressing rooms. It's one last chance for stores to get you to pick up more items. Oh and here's one last tip: you're going to see a lot of discount signs with 10, 20 maybe even 50% off an item, but consumer experts say nothing is a deal unless it's 30% off or more. 1561

The US Food and Drug Administration announced Wednesday it is investigating a possible connection between e-cigarette use and seizures in younger users.In a public notice the agency reported "a recent uptick in voluntary reports of adverse experiences with tobacco products that mentioned seizures occurring with e-cigarette use (e.g., vaping)" signaling "a potential emerging safety issue."Since June 2018, the FDA said it has "observed a slight but noticeable increase in reports of seizures" connected with e-cigarette use."After examining poison control centers' reports between 2010 and early 2019, the FDA determined that, between the poison control centers and the FDA, there were a total of 35 reported cases of seizures mentioning use of e-cigarettes within that timeframe," the notice says. "Due to the voluntary nature of these case reports, there may be more instances of seizure in e-cigarette users than have been reported."FDA commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb released an accompanying statement explaining why the agency was releasing the information."We want to be clear that we don't yet know if there's a direct relationship between the use of e-cigarettes and a risk of seizure. We can't yet say for certain that e-cigarettes are causing these seizures," he said."We're sharing this early information with the public because as a public health agency, it's our job to communicate about potential safety concerns associated with the products we regulate that are under scientific investigation by the agency. This also helps encourage the public to voluntarily report additional adverse events that can better inform our work." 1656

Three more parents pleaded guilty in federal court on Wednesday, the latest to fall in what authorities called the largest collegiate admissions scam ever prosecuted.Gregory Abbott, founder and chairman of a food and beverage packaging company, his wife, Marcia Abbott, and Peter Jan Sartorio, the founder of a frozen burrito company, all went before a federal judge to formally enter their pleas to conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud.Prosecutors said evidence included recorded phone calls and emails that show all three communicating directly with the mastermind of the scheme, William Rick Singer, to get their children guaranteed path into the prestigious college of their choice.As part of their plea agreements, prosecutors are recommending the Abbotts serve 12 months and a day in prison, while Sartorio would serve between zero and six months.Prosecutors said the Abbotts paid Singer a total of 5,000 in purported donations to his foundation to inflate their daughter's scores on both the ACT and SAT exams. Mark Riddell, who has also plead guilty for his role in the scam, corrected her test scores for the ACT in March and then for the SAT subject tests in October."Do you know how she did on her own," Gregory Abbott was heard on a recorded phone call asking, according to prosecutors. "Yeah, I do. She scored in the mid-600s," replied Singer.The Abbott's daughter scored 800 on the math portion and 710 on the literature, both scores out of a possible 800, prosecutors said.In court in Boston on Wednesday, the Abbotts they understood the scores would be corrected but did not know the details of how it would happen. "I didn't know the system. I didn't know how things were implemented," Marcia Abbott said.Meanwhile, Sartorio, a packaged food entrepreneur, paid Singer ,000 in cash to have Riddell correct his daughter's ACT exam in June 2017, prosecutors said.After the exam, Singer, who was now working with the federal government, answered a call from Sartorio and told him the Key Worldwide Foundation (KWF), the charity that fronted as a means to collect payment for the scheme, was being audited.Singer told Sartorio that he wouldn't show up in the alleged audit because he paid cash but wanted to "touch base" in case the IRS reached out to Sartorio."All I know is I paid bills that were sent to me, invoiced," Sartorio said, according to a criminal complaint.Sartorio's attorney, Peter Levitt, told the judge, "Like the Abbotts, Mr. Sartorio didn't know the details or the information about payments Mr. Singer made to other people."Attorneys for the Abbotts and Sartorio declined to comment after court.On Tuesday, two other parents appeared in court to plead guilty.Gordon Caplan, a former partner and co-chairman of international law firm Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP, pleaded guilty to paying ,000 as part of a scheme to cheat on his daughter's ACT.Agustin Huneeus Jr., a California vineyard owner, 2978
