New Huma Abedin Emails Reveal Additional Instances of Clinton Sending Classified Information through Unsecured Emails, Special Favors for Clinton Donors - Judicial Watch

New Huma Abedin Emails Reveal Additional Instances of Clinton Sending Classified Information through Unsecured Emails, Special Favors for Clinton Donors - Judicial Watch:

 "The emails, were obtained in response to a court order from a May 5, 2015, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed against the State Department after it failed to respond to a March 18 FOIA request (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00684)). The lawsuit seeks:

All emails of official State Department business received or sent by former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin from January 1, 2009 through February 1, 2013 using a non-“state.gov” email address.
The records contain 29 previously undisclosed Clinton emails – of a total of which is now at least 288 emails that were not part of the 55,000 pages of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department. "

Every bad idea metastisizes into a worse idea-----Fab Cab trolley would circulate in Ferndale, Royal Oak, NW Detroit

Fab Cab trolley would circulate in Ferndale, Royal Oak, NW Detroit:

Metro-Detroit's overall bus system is spotty and costs a few bucks. But in these upscale areas, watch for a free trolley ride.

 Mass transit it sure isn't — but the allure of a free trolley ride seems contagious.

After the success of trolleys in the Grosse Pointes and Troy for high-spending diners, shoppers and tourists, a fresh trolley plan is in the works for southeast Oakland County and the edge of Detroit. It would stop for Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, the Detroit Zoo and the Livernois corridor of Detroit from 8 Mile south to the University of Detroit Mercy.

 “We have this concept we call Fab Cab,” said Jordan Twardy, Ferndale’s economic development boss and mastermind of the plan. Like trolleys in the Grosse Pointes and Troy, it would link key destinations with free ridership on a rubber-tired trolley car, augmented if demand is strong by SMART’s small connector buses that seat 12 to 15 people. The new service would roll from 10 a.m. until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.
...Pleasant Ridge officials voted recently to allocate $10,000 for the first year of the service. Ferndale is set to approve $130,000 later this month “to really get this started,” Twardy said. The Detroit Zoo is being asked to allocate $30,000, and shares for Royal Oak and Detroit are pegged at $50,000 apiece.
In Troy...The free service "has been very, very successful," city public affairs director Cindy Stewart said Monday. It is being subsidized by Troy businesses, she said.
...The success of local trolleys is evidence that "many communities are chomping at the bit for more transit service," said Megan Owens, executive director of the nonprofit group of mostly bus riders called Transportation Riders United.
...For the first few years, dollars from local governments — including Detroit — would support the free rides, but after that the hope is for commercial sponsors and advertising on the buses to pick up the tab for Fab Cab, the documents said..."
