Politicos have been in an uproar over his being the new executive director of their republican party. state democratic spokesman says matt mowers spent years working under disgraced aides of chris christie and what dirty tricks they taught him and what plans he has to use them in new hampshire. so far the republican party responded to statements defending matt mowers in a general sense, not mentioning the fact he used to work for chris christie. does matt mowers hold on to that political job in the new hampshire republican party? probably depends on whether his name surfaces again in a more damning way in more subpoenaed documents we expect to get once the assembly investigation moves forward. that s not the only state republican party reeling from the scandal. new jersey, itself, they already lost their new party chairman for the republican party in new jersey. the day before the bergen record published the e-mail for governor christie s governor chief of staff that said time
Trip. he went out west for a two-day tour of our nation s nuclear arms installations. he stopped in new mexico to check on a nuclear weapons vault. he also got to visit his home state of nebraska where he visited a missile launch control center making him the first defense secretary in 30 years to venture down 60 feet below ground into one of the totally enclosed capsules from which america s military missileers can launch our nation s giant intercontinental nuclear missiles. secretary hagel also went to cheyenne, wyoming, to the air force base there, visited with the men and women whose job it is to guard and maintain the 150 missiles and nuclear warheads we have stockpiled at f.e. warren. he was primarily there to give the officers a pep talk. to deliver a moral boosting speech. to a division of the air force lacking in morale for white some time. there have been a series of high profile firings of top nuclear division commanders.
yes. so i had to wait until that. my ideas were that the transportation committee did a fabulous job under chairman wisniewski. and to continue that work, i think it had to be moved to a special committee because it s no longer a transportation issue. it s about public safety and about abuse of power. so we wanted to make sure we armed this committee with all the tools and resources to make it something that we can get to the bottom of this because we re a legislative body and we make laws, and if laws were broken, we want to see how we can correct this. because those positions are still there. they ll be filled by other people. we want to make sure this tdoes not happen again. in terms of the relationship between the different parts of government in new jersey, i was looking at the legislation today that s creating the special investigatory body and it s explicit about how this moved just beyond the port authority, moved beyond just a transportation issue. there have been questions raised

Ecstasy and synthetic pot which i m too much of an old person to even understand. the reason we got an updated statement on this, from the air force today, is because it s not just a drug ring investigation anymore. while investigating the drug problem at the air force base in montana, one of the three bases that guard and maintain our stockpile of nuclear weapons in the air force, air force officials also say they stumbled upon what they re calling evidence that dozens of officers at that base, the rank of captain or lieutenant, dozens of officers have been cheating on their certification exams. these are the tests the launch officers are required to take monthly to ensure their ability to do their job. their job taking care of nuclear weapons. some of the officers were caught sharing answers via text message, while they were taking their exams. in all, 34 officers have reportedly been implicated. 34. those 34 officers have had their security clearances immediately suspended. and they have been stripped of their nuclear certification pending the results of the
