and David Javier Salazar-Quintero, based in Camp Pendleton, Calif., were arraigned Monday in federal court on charges of transporting undocumented immigrants 'for financial gain,' accused of taking jobs from 'recruiters' and following instructions from unknown people in Mexico to make extra cash on the side. They are among several active- duty U.S. troops charged or convicted in recent years of helping immigrants cross the border in exchange for money, highlighting how smugglers have sought to offer the shield of a uniform or credentials to assist desperate immigrants on the journey north." Footage shows hate crime being committed at Glenelg High School THE BLACK EXPERIENCE IN AMERICA: -- "A black principal, four white teens and the `senior prank' that became a hate crime," by Jessica Contrera: "This was the last day of the year for the class of 2018 at Glenelg High School. There was going to be an awards ceremony, a picnic, that end-of-a-journey feeling that always made [Principal David Burton] so proud of his job. But as he was on his way to work at 6:25 a.m., the assistant principal had called, agitated and yelling about graffiti. 'It's everywhere,' he kept saying, so Burton had leaned on the gas and rushed the last few miles. ... He turned a corner and saw something written in large capital letters on the sidewalk: 'BURTON IS A NIGGER.' He paused only for a moment, looking at the words, trying to comprehend that all of this was real. Later, school district officials, county administrators and prosecutors would have a name for what happened here. They would repeat it, condemn it and vow to prevent it from occurring again. Hate crime." -- A white man who called 911 on a black man in his building apologized for his actions, explaining that they were informed by a tragic family history — his father was murdered after confronting a EFTA00043103

The man, Christopher Cukor, called the cops on Wesly Michel, a man who was going up to a friend's apartment in the same building without using the call box. The video of their encounter went viral online. (Eli Rosenberg) -- Elijah Al-Amin, a black teenager, was stabbed to death at a convenience store in Arizona by a white man, allegedly because he was playing rap music in his car.

(NBC News) -- The Chicago Defender, the legendary newspaper read by generations of black Americans, printed its final copy. The newspaper will cease its print editions after today but will continue its digital operation. (New York Times) -- A graphic artist who went viral for calling out Google's lack of a doodle celebrating Juneteenth was contacted by the search giant about a job. Davian Chester created his own Google doodle to celebrate the holiday marking the end of slavery, which quickly spread across social media and attracted the company's interest. Chester said he is still in talks with Google about the job, but in the meantime, his hometown of Columbus, Ga., has put up a billboard of the doodle. (Allison Klein) Tom Steyer: 'Fundamental Change' I Campaign 2020 2020 WATCH: -- Billionaire activist Tom Steyer formally entered the Democratic presidential primary with an announcement video outlining his pledges to reduce corporations' political influence and address climate change. Chelsea Janes reports: "In January, when he EFTA00043104
Page 143 / 1000
announced he would not run for president, Steyer said that rather than entering the race he would turn his attention fully to pressuring members of Congress to start impeachment proceedings against [Trump]. ... On Tuesday, as he announced his presidential bid, Steyer did not mention impeachment or Trump, although the president was briefly seen in the video. Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, was also seen in the video being led down a hallway in handcuffs. ... Steyer will have one week to accumulate 65,000 donors to qualify for the second Democratic debate, which will take place at the end of the month." -- Biden told a voter he'll "go further" than cutting incarceration by 50 percent. BuzzFeed News's Katherine Miller reports: "In a video shared ... by the ACLU, Biden tells a man, Keith Albert, who identifies himself as an ACLU voter, that he'd `go further than' cutting incarceration by half. `Would you commit to cutting incarceration by 50%?' Albert asks Biden. `More than that. We can do it more than that,' he responds. Last month in Concord, New Hampshire, another self- identified ACLU voter asked if Biden would `commit to cutting the prison population overall, and specifically the federal prison population, in half' — a slightly different wording." -- CNN announced its rules for the next Democratic presidential debates. From CNN's Mark Preston: "The upcoming Democratic presidential debates will feature opening and closing statements and two hours of debate time each night ... While candidates will not officially learn if they make the Detroit stage until July 17, Tuesday's call with the 20-plus Democratic campaigns was held to help them prepare for the debate should their respective candidates qualify, a CNN spokesperson said." The rules include: • Colored lights will be used to help candidates manage their remaining response times. • A candidate attacked by name by another candidate will be given EFTA00043105

30 seconds to respond. • There will be no show of hands or one-word questions. • A candidate who constantly interrupts others will have their time reduced. • Questions posed by moderators will appear on the screen for viewers. -- The DNC announced that the third debate, which will be hosted by ABC News and Univision, will be held in Houston. -- Democrats are increasingly focused on portraying Mitch McConnell as a villain in a bid to win back the Senate and energize liberals. IM Costa reports: "That effort gained new momentum on Tuesday as Amy McGrath, a retired Marine lieutenant colonel and combat pilot, announced she would challenge McConnell (R-Ky.) and blamed him for turning Washington into `something we despise' in a campaign video that drew millions of views. While McGrath faces a steep climb against McConnell in ruby-red Kentucky, which President Trump carried by 30 percentage points in 2016, she is expected to raise significant funds from national Democrats and provide the party with a relentless and high-profile opponent." -- Though Sen. Pat (R-Kan.) won't make an endorsement in the Republican primary race to replace him, he said former Kansas secretary of state Kris Kobach faces a "very difficult" path to the Senate. The Kansas City Star's Bryan Lowry reports: "'It seems to me if you have just lost a statewide race, that the chances of you winning another statewide race would be very difficult,' told reporters. 'I have not talked to Kris about this. I did talk to him earlier, but that was all about allegedly being the head of DHS. But the votes weren't there.' ... Kobach's campaign manager Steve Drake rejected ' analysis of the race and also hit back against the criticism from national EFTA00043106

Republicans. ... Kobach's entry could ramp up efforts to recruit Secretary of State Pompeo into the race." -- The RNC is threatening to withhold support from candidates who refuse to use the party's newly established online fundraising tool, WinRed, as tensions over the future of the party's grass-roots fundraising efforts reach a breaking point. Politico's Isenstadt reports: "The moves illustrate how Republican leaders are waging a determined campaign to make WinRed the sole provider of its small donor infrastructure — and to torpedo any competitors. On Monday, the RNC sent an eight-page cease-and-desist letter to Paul Dietzel, a Republican digital strategist who earlier this month launched Give.GOP, a fundraising platform that includes a directory through which donors can give to party candidates and organizations. In the letter, RNC chief counsel Justin Riemer writes that while Give.GOP has a page inviting donors to give to the RNC, the committee hasn't yet received any funds from the platform or received any outreach from it. Riemer also accuses Dietzel of using the committee's trademark and logo without its permission." -- Sarah McBride, a transgender activist who made waves after speaking at the Democratic National Convention in 2016, is now running for Delaware state Senate. Deanna Paul reports: "If she wins the 2020 race to succeed Sen. Harris McDowell, who is retiring at the end of his term, McBride will be the state's first elected transgender senator. ... Now serving as national press secretary for the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest LGTBQ lobbying group, she has continued to be a force for the movement through the Trump-Pence administration, which she called `one of the most explicitly anti-LGBTQ administrations in history' during a 2018 interview."

THE NEW WORLD ORDER: -- Mexican Finance Minister Carlos Urzila abruptly resigned, dealing a major blow to President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's government. Mary Beth Sheridan reports: Urziia quit after accusing Lopez Obrador's government of making decisions "that were not grounded in evidence and of naming officials who were ignorant of economics. ... L0pez Obrador has sought to woo the business community by pledging a balanced budget and a stable peso, even as he has launched ambitious social programs to help youth and the poor. But the peso immediately slid after Urztla announced his resignation on Twitter, falling more than 2 percent, to about 19.3 pesos to the dollar. It later recovered some ground after L0pez Obrador named a U.S.- educated technocrat, Arturo Herrera, as Urzua's replacement." -- Iran's release after four years in prison of a Lebanese businessman was meant to be seen as an opening for U.S.-Iranian talks. But the gesture wasn't enough for Washington. Reuters's Lesley Wroughton, Jonathan Landay and Arshad Mohammed report: ""It was a missed opportunity," one U.S. source said of Nizar Zakka's June 11 release and the U.S. decision not to pursue talks. 'We should have explored whether there was something there.' A second source — who is familiar with Iran's thinking and spoke on condition of anonymity — said Iran freed Zakka as a signal it wanted to cool tensions that have fueled fears of a war, and described his release as `a goodwill gesture.' ... Iranian officials declined to discuss whether it was an overture, or what concessions Tehran wants from Washington." -- The Pentagon's transition plan underscores an upheaval in leadership.

Richard V. Spencer, when the White House formally submits Esper's nomination to the Senate for confirmation. Under a federal law known as the Vacancies Act, Esper, who has been serving as Army secretary since 2017, is required to step aside while the Senate considers his nomination for the top Pentagon job. When he will do so is not clear, as the requirement will be activated only when the White House officially transmits his nomination to the Senate. Pentagon chief of staff Chewning, speaking to reporters at the Pentagon, said the White House was expected to convey Esper's nomination 'shortly.'" -- The Pentagon said it spent at least $1.2 million on Trump's Fourth of July celebrations. CBS News's Kathryn Watson reports: "That figure does not represent the full cost of the event to taxpayers, but it does include the cost of flying hours and transportation for tanks and fighting vehicle platforms. Funding for the demonstrations, a Pentagon spokesman says, came from the services' training budgets for flying hours, and additional funds were used for the transportation of equipment. The Pentagon noted it's spent comparable amounts, if not more, on other events. The Pentagon noted that San Francisco Fleet Week cost $1.8 million in 2017, and Los Angeles Fleet Week cost $1.6 million."

(Bandar Al-Jaloud/Saudi royal palace/AFP/Getty Images) NEVER FORGET JAMAL KHASHOGGI: -- After journalist Jamal Khashoggi was killed at the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul, a number of lobbying firms and think tanks in Washington began making a rare move: They publicly severed ties with Saudi Arabia. Months later, however, the country's efforts to continue influencing U.S. policy remain strong. Beth Reinhard, EFTA00043109

Jonathan O'Connell and Tom Hamburger report: "Since fall 2018, high- powered lobbyists and lawyers have reaped millions of dollars for assisting the kingdom as it works to develop nuclear power, buy American-made weapons and prolong U.S. assistance to the Saudi-led coalition waging war in Yemen, foreign lobbying records show. One Washington-based communications firm — whose parent company initially expressed concern when Khashoggi disappeared — recently reported collecting nearly $19 million for what it says was several years of work for the Saudi government. A New York-based public relations firm run by a former Clinton administration appointee signed on in February to represent a Saudi interest for as much as $120,000 a month, filings show. The firms representing the kingdom operate under wide political cover provided by Trump. ... "Saudi Arabia is one of the highest-spending countries seeking to influence U.S. policy, ranking ninth in an analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics that reviewed the flow of foreign money from 2017 to the present. Roughly 20 firms are registered to lobby for Saudi interests, compared with more than 25 before Khashoggi's death, foreign lobbying filings show. ... At least five firms did end up cutting business ties with Saudi interests in the fall: Glover Park Group, BGR Group, Harbour Group, CGCN Group and Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, filings show. Among the lobbying firms still representing Saudi interests are Hogan Lovells, which has been paid $1.6 million since fall; and McKeon Group, led by Howard `Buck' McKeon, a former Republican chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, which has received $600,000. Two law firms are offering advice on the kingdom's efforts to build nuclear power plants: Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, which got nearly $1.9 million between August 2018 and January; and King & Spalding, which received $946,000 in November." -- Saudi Arabia invited Reporters without Borders, a global press freedom group, to the kingdom. Kareem Fahim reports: "The four- EFTA00043110
Page 149 / 1000
person delegation visited in April and met with senior Saudi officials, including the public prosecutor and the minister of justice, according to Christophe Deloire, who spoke publicly about the visit for the first time. The delegation's members demanded a thorough investigation of the killing of Khashoggi and pressed for the 'unconditional and immediate release' of at least 30 journalists that Reporters without Borders says are unfairly imprisoned in the kingdom, Deloire said. The invitation was the first from the Saudi government to RSF and the level of access the delegation was given was extremely rare, he said." -- The Saudi princess who has been accused of ordering her bodyguard to assault a workman in Paris has gone on trial in absentia. From the BBC: "Princess Hassa bint Salman - Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's sister - faces charges of complicity to violence with a weapon and complicity to kidnap. Her bodyguard ... is also on trial. ... [Both] deny wrongdoing. ... Egyptian workman Ashraf Eid told police that, in September 2016, he was working in the Saudi king's apartment on the exclusive Avenue Foch in Paris when he went to take pictures of the bathroom on his mobile phone so that he could remember where items were placed before he started. However, the princess suspected him of wanting to sell images he had taken of her in the mirror and called the guard, French reports say. ... According to one French account, the workman accused the princess of saying: 'This dog must be killed, he doesn't deserve to live. You'll see how you speak to a princess, how you speak to the royal family.' Mr Eid told police the bodyguard beat him up, binding his hands and forcing him to kiss the princess's feet." -- Nicki Minaj canceled a concert in Saudi Arabia after better "educating herself on the issues." Helena Andrews-Dyer reports: "Just one week after her performance at the Jeddah World Fest was announced, Minaj said in a statement that 'after careful consideration' she could no longer participate.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg testifies on Capitol Hill last year. (Andrew Harnik/AP) THE BRAVE NEW WORLD, BROUGHT TO YOU BY BIG TECH: -- Trump summoned Republican lawmakers, political strategists and social media stars to the White House to discuss the "opportunities" of the Web in a summit that critics said could empower online provocateurs. Tony Romm, Michael Scherer and Amy B Wang report: "The high-profile gathering follows months of attacks from Trump claiming that Facebook, Google and Twitter ... secretly censor right-leaning users, websites and other content online, a charge of political bias that the tech giants strongly deny.. ... But Trump hasn't invited any of the major tech companies, people familiar with the White House plans say, opting instead to grant a powerful stage to people who have a track record of sending inflammatory tweets and videos and posting other troubling content that social media sites increasingly are under pressure to remove. Among the expected attendees are James O'Keefe, the founder of Project Veritas, which has released secretly recorded videos of subjects, including a Google executive, in an attempt to paint them as politically biased. Another invitee, Ben Garrison, has published cartoons that have drawn sharp rebukes from the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center for including hateful text and imagery." -- Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Google executives will testify to Congress next week as part of the House's antitrust investigation.

(Amazon founder . Bezos owns The Post.) -- Twitter will ban posts that dehumanize people based on their religion. Hamza Shaban reports: "The update builds on Twitter's existing policies that bar the promotion of violence, threats and harassment against people in protected groups. But the company has acknowledged that what many people consider abusive tweets may not actually violate Twitter's rules. New policies banning dehumanizing language are an attempt to close that gap, Twitter said. ... Twitter won't automatically flag offending posts, but will review them when they are reported by users. The company said it will require that dehumanizing posts are removed from the platform, starting Tuesday." -- Netflix has lost two of its most popular shows — "Friends" and "The Office" — as old media companies begin to flex their streaming muscles. CNBC's . Sherman reports: "Disney, AT&T's WarnerMedia, and Comcast's NBCUniversal are all launching direct-to- consumer streaming services by the first quarter of 2020. And they're all coming after Netflix. Sure, there will be enough consumer dollars to go around for Netflix to keep its massive subscriber base, 155 million globally, growing. But there's little doubt that part of the motivation of legacy media companies embracing subscription streaming services is to capture some of Netflix's valuation — or bring CEO Reed Hastings' behemoth back down to earth."

Harris: "Ross Perot died early Tuesday morning at 89, an event that surely left many Americans with an embarrassed thought: Wait, what? ... I am pretty sure I thought he was already dead. The contrast between the quietude of Perot's last aging years and the blaring trumpets of his 20th- century business and political career is so stark it takes some effort now to recall how large this cocksure Texas bantam once loomed. ... But for people who on occasion (perhaps several times a week) respond to the news in the Trump era by thinking to themselves, I can't believe this is happening, Perot's story is a useful reminder that norm-shattering, cult- of-personality politics is not an exclusively recent phenomenon."

The Regional staff could not provide justification for additional expenses directly related to the Epstein incident.

We did however provide utilization of the project code for the travel expenses of the after action team. I've advised all the Regional Comptrollers, due to priority spending directed by DOJ, such as FSA spending, we would re-evaluate our budget status during the first week of September to see if any additional funding can be provided.
