Judicial Watch Experts Tom Fitton and Chris Farrell Available to Discuss IG Report on DOJ/FBI
Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report will be released to the public on Thursday
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that its key spokespeople, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton and Director of Investigations and Research Chris Farrell will be available to discuss the long-anticipated report from the Department of Justice Inspector General regarding the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of classified information through her unsecure, non-state.gov email system.
In a letter to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz said that he planned to release a report on Thursday, June 14.
The report is expected to address many issues concerning the FBI under former Directors James Comey and Andrew McCabe, as well as the Justice Department under former Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
Judicial Watch’s investigations and lawsuits are the proximate cause for uncovering Clinton’s illicit email system and have been at the forefront of the search for information on the actions of Comey, McCabe and Lynch. For example:
Topping the list of possible questions is: will IG Horowitz recommend serious consequences or even criminal referrals for the preferential treatment given to Clinton and her aides?
How will the report handle James Comey’s infamous exoneration memo written months before Clinton’s FBI interview, as well as Loretta Lynch’s and former President Bill Clinton’s “tarmac meeting?”
How will the “insurance policy” and other texts of FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page be addressed?
Was President Obama personally involved in directing the DOJ’s decisions leading up to the Clinton-DNC, anti-Trump dossier and Mueller investigation?

A weekly report on education news and commentary you won’t find anywhere else — from the nation’s leading voice on education innovation and opportunity.
MASS MILESTONE. Recalling amazing milestones in educational change (something that all too many today think is too hard to pursue) the Pioneer Institute reminds of the 25th anniversary of the landmark 1993 Massachusetts Education Reform Act (MERA), the act which ushered in standards, testing and charter schools. “People should remember Governor Weld's extraordinary K-12 education leadership,” writes Jamie Gass, director of Pioneer’s Center for School Reform.
“…in MERA's early years, state educrats repeatedly tried revolt-of-the-clerks tactics to subvert the law's intent. When these flaky functionaries promulgated draft English standards that included Ebonics, Weld and legislative leaders responded by radically overhauling the state education governance structure to hold the bureaucrats accountable.”
“[Weld] appointed his former gubernatorial rival and firebrand Boston University President, John Silber, to chair the state Board of Education. Just as Weld had planned, Silber fed misbehaving state educrats bucketsful of cod liver oil. It was Weld's tough-minded board appointees who redirected the policy conversations on standards, testing, accountability, and charter schools. (Happy Silver Anniversary, MERA. It was CER’s first year in business and we remember the work well!)
EDTECH IS THE MEANS, NOT THE END. An accomplished edtechie takes the case to Forbes.com this week in “EdTech Should Be Only A Means, Not An End, For Your Local Schools” –about EdTech and what it means, or should, and the danger of it becoming a fad defined more by owning the latest in hardware bells and software whistles, and less by its true value. Adam Geller, Founder & CEO of Edthena sums it all up nicely with this simple question: “Why is the conversation about the classroom technology we want to possess instead of about the student learning we hope to see?” And answered with this equally simple statement: “The goal for students isn't technology-centered learning. It is problem-centered learning using various types of high-tech and low-tech tools.”
Agreeing agreeably even if we don’t always agree. The New York Times kicked up some dust last week when it ran a piece titled “Charter Schools Have a Betsy DeVos Problem,” (see last week’s Newswire for our take on the matter). But you don’t have to be a DeVos or Trump supporter to see the danger in that argument. To wit, Minnesota’s Joe Nathan – a self-described Paul Wellstone-Hubert Humphrey liberal and student community organizer Saul Alinsky – who while noting his disagreement with the EdSec on many issues, pointed out the value of left-right coalitions in winning approval of important ideas (Joe was a leading force in crafting nation’s first public charter school law in Minnesota). “Isn’t one of the longtime lessons of America that broad coalitions can help produce progress, though coalition members disagree on many things?” Joe concluded, and to which we say “Bravo!” That’s what happens when you put kids first, and adult egos away. Thank you, Joe, for reminding us and the Times that we can agree to disagree on some things and still be united on education opportunity. That’s why Joe Nathan is one of CER’s 25th Anniversary Silver Honorees for his commitment always putting principle ahead of politics.
NEVADA PRIMARY NOTES. Educational choice is at the heart of the Nevada gubernatorial primary. Democrats Steve Sisolak, who served on the state Board of Regents, and Chris Giunchigliani, a special education teacher for more than 30 years, are vying for their party’s nomination for governor to replace Gov. Brian Sandoval, while Republicans will choose between (among others) Attorney General Adam Laxalt, and State Treasurer Dan Schwartz.
Schwartz has vowed to “not sign a single bill until he has a parental choice [funding] bill on his desk,” while Sisolak has said he’d donate his salary to charity until the schools are “turned around.” Laxalt, whose father was Senator Paul Laxalt and a respected leader by both parties in the 80s, is far ahead in the race. His edreform pedigree is that he successfully defended the constitutionality of the state’s school choice program and Schwartz wrote the regulations for it. (Laxalt’s campaign is actually using the Dems’ education experience against them pointing out that “…both tout themselves as education champions based on their long political careers and involvement in education, while at the same time complaining about how broken our education system — the one they’ve been overseeing for decades — remains today.” Point taken.). Serving as a backdrop for all of this on the Democratic side, is the discord between the statewide teachers union and the Clark County affiliate which has extended to its gubernatorial endorsements. Although Giunchigliani served as the president of both the Clark County Education Association (1983–87) and the Nevada State Education Association (1987–91), she only secured the endorsement of the latter, with the local union endorsing Sisolak instead and going on the attack against one of their own.
One question for Nevada voters, as posed by the 74, is not whether Sandoval’s successor will continue to prioritize education, but how and by how much.
Our question however, is a bit more pointed.
Which candidate will be the leader in ensuring that personalized, educational opportunities are not only protected and advanced but multiplied? Only time will tell. But one thing is certain - Nevada’s rapidly rising enrollment and too few great educational opportunities threaten its economic health and the welfare of countless families.
They don’t call it “Real Clear Policy” for nothin’. Friend, colleague, fellow edreform pioneer (and honorary co-chair of CER’s Silver Anniversary Summit) Gov. Jeb Bush, and Steve Klinsky, Founder and CEO of Modern States Education Alliance, offer a compelling plan that would lower the cost of tuition (by up to 25 percent) and create an immediate “on ramp” to college for students.

BREAKING. CER announced last week its illustrious first Co-Chairs of the October 25-16th Silver Anniversary Summit & Celebration, “Opportunity, Innovation & the Road to ONE America,” taking place Miami, FL. Check it out! The event co-chairs will lead the summit in developing strategies that fuse together collective efforts in education reform and innovation across every juncture. The summit will be a unique chance to mix and mingle with the leading lights of modern education reform, and most importantly, to learn about how to advance opportunity and innovation in the 21st century.
You can always use a Reality Check. This week Jeanne talks with Carol D’Amico Executive Vice President of Mission Advancement and Philanthropy with Strada Education Network (SEN). Carol’s background as a nationally recognized expert in designing and leading strategies related to higher education, workforce development and business-led involvement with education reform has led her to her unique position at SEN where, since 2013, she has played a leading role in developing national and state-based philanthropic initiatives involving the higher education, business and workforce development sectors. Listen online at edreform.com/realitycheck.
The AFT: coming to a town near you. One might call her an “uninvited co-conspirator” but that would be mean. Still, what else can you say about AFT president Randi Weingarten who last week inserted herself into Rhode Island politics by travelling to Providence to lobby for a $250 bond issue and to buddy up with the Providence Teachers Union which is stewing over stalled contract negotiations – which we’re sure Randi’s will help resolve given her calming presence wherever she goes.
Don't forget! Meet us in Miami Oct. 25-26 for our Silver Anniversary Summit + Celebration. More info at edreform.com.
=================
After SIX months of being completely SOLD OUT of our first batch, my BioTrust partner Josh and I are very excited to announce that our breakthrough Ageless Glow™ skin rejuvenating serum is available once again... but hurry, our first batch sold out in a few days and this "second chance" opportunity likely won't last much longer.
That's right, we’re searching for men and women who are “over 40” and suffer from visible signs of aging—like crepey “chicken skin” on your neck, face, arms, hands, and chest, crow's feet, laugh lines, sun damage, dark spots, or bags under your eyes. If you meet this criteria, please read this email completely and reply immediately. Inventory is very limited, and I'm certain all of our new bottles will be claimed within a few hours.
You see, for the last three years, there is one product that our newsletter subscribers have been DEMANDING over and over again: a science-backed, NATURAL anti-aging serum that truly works to quickly revitalize aging skin to a youthful, taut, smooth, and glowing condition
For years, we’ve promised a full release of this product, but we ran into big challenges, and have been sold out for far too long. For that we apologize, and we hope we can make it up to you today.
The truth is, we originally went through 23 prototypes of Ageless Glow™ over the years, and my family, some of our BioTRUST team members, and I have all been real-life guinea pigs for the product.
But to be honest, until earlier this year, I was going to cancel this product launch because we couldn't come up with a NATURAL anti-aging serum that truly worked and demonstrated a dramatic reduction in visible signs of aging in as few as 7 days or less.
In fact, Josh's mother Barb is a Registered Nurse in Iowa, and here was her reply after trying prototype #23:
“Josh, okay… WOW! Your sisters and I all LOVE this version. It’s nearly odorless and isn’t oily. I used it for only a week on half of my face, and there is a very noticeable difference in my wrinkles. One side of my face looks younger, but the other… like an old leather purse. Now I’ve got to even it out. I even used it on my ‘turkey neck’ and saggy arm skin, and all of it is noticeably lifted, firmer, and tighter. Can I use this on my upper cleavage area to clear up the sun damage? Please send more. I want your dad to use it. He’s looking old as dirt!” —Love Mom
(Yes, Josh's mom is now forcing his father to use Ageless Glow™ daily… and he’s getting great results, too. So is Josh at age 44. There’s nothing wrong with guys wanting to look and feel younger, too.)
So, after three years, we were FINALLY on to something BIG with prototype #23, and it’s not just our families confirming the results. It’s backed by a great deal of scientific studies conducted on REAL people like YOU and I to boot.
This is why 6 months ago we FINALLY gave our team at BioTRUST the green light to make our first 1,000-bottle pilot run of this amazing anti-aging serum Ageless Glow™ and take it through our industry-leading Quality Control Testing and GMP-certified manufacturing process so it becomes "BioTRUST Approved and Certified."
And even better, my Inventory Director, Scott Young (fitting last name for this product), just informed me that our second limited production run of Ageless Glow™ will be received at our warehouse today, and we will be packing up shipments for anyone who missed out the first time, along with everyone who has been waiting patiently for more to arrive so they can re-order!
But before we get into the exciting details of what’s in Ageless Glow™, I want to first share what’s NOT.
The truth is, most of today’s top-selling, celebrity-endorsed anti-aging serums are stuffed with potentially toxic ingredients like parabens and phthalates, which are often hidden and not listed in their formulas. Unknowingly, good folks from around the world are lathering these toxins all over their faces and bodies, which can result in a whole host of adverse effects.
For example, in a recent article published in the Washington Post, health columnist Jill Adams wrote, “Phthalates and parabens can interfere with the body’s hormones, most notably reproductive hormones such as estrogen and testosterone. The possible health risks could include chronic diseases, cancers, and a host of developmental disorders and fertility problems...”
What’s more, parabens appear to be potent inhibitors of mitochondrial function. The mitochondria are often described as the “powerhouses” of cells, as they are responsible for creating energy from the food we eat and store. Without proper mitochondria function, you feel tired and lethargic even when you get enough sleep. (Sound familiar?)
What’s more, phthalates can impair thyroid function which can lead to increased fat storage. Are you eating right and exercising but still can’t lose weight? Maybe it’s because of the phthalates hidden in your favorite products.
What’s more, parabens appear to be potent inhibitors of mitochondrial function. The mitochondria are often described as the “powerhouses” of cells, as they are responsible for creating energy from the food we eat and store. Without proper mitochondria function, you feel tired and lethargic even when you get enough sleep. (Sound familiar?)
I would NEVER let my mom or family members use products that had these dangerous ingredients.
Now that you know what’s not in Ageless Glow™, you may very well be wondering what is. For starters, Ageless Glow™ is a completely non-GMO, hypoallergenic formula that’s safe for sensitive or oily skin, and it’s made with only the finest natural ingredients and does not clog your pores or cause acne.
Even more, you can feel good about using Ageless Glow™ because:
*It contains safe and effective ingredients, which are free from toxicity and contamination concerns, and it is not tested on any animals.
*It has transparent labeling, and all ingredients are fully and accurately disclosed.
*It is free from toxic fragrance blends, synthetic fragrances, and dyes.
*It is manufactured in a top-tier GMP-certified facility.
*It undergoes rigorous testing for and is free from contaminants and potentially dangerous bacteria, molds, yeasts, and fungi.
So now we know Ageless Glow™ is safe, but is it truly effective at overcoming the primary causes of aging skin? I’m talking about:
1. The loss of collagen, which results in wrinkles and lines
2. A decrease of elastic fibers in connective tissue, which causes drooping and sagging skin
3. Sun damage and discoloration
4. Dehydration, which leaves the skin looking crepey, dry, and itchy
You bet it is!
The secret to Ageless Glow™ is in its FOUR breakthrough, science-backed, NATURAL ingredients, which help lift your skin while reducing the visible signs of aging—starting in just the first 7 days. BioTRUST’s expert product developers have literally scoured the globe to find and purchase these powerful anti-aging ingredients.
Let’s review the effectiveness of each of these now:
1. MAJESTEM™ – It Lifts Sagging Skin
MAJESTEM™ is an extract of Leontopodium alpinum, or Edelweiss, a rare herb that grows on mountain ranges in the Pyrenees, the Alps, and the Himalayas. It is a rare and strictly protected plant, and because of its unique star-like appearance, it is often called The Queen of the Mountain.
Traditionally, Edelweiss has been used in folk medicine to help control key biomarkers of aging, and recent research has shown that concentrated extracts possess powerful protective effects associated with signs of premature aging from sun exposure (i.e., photoaging) and more including:
*Providing visible face and neck lifting action
*Tightening sagging neck skin
*Lifting the cheeks
*Smoothing out crow’s feet wrinkles
*Combatting against oxidative stress (e.g., pollution, UV radiation)
In a series of clinical studies, 34 women (ages 41 – 71), who presented visual signs of aging (like saggy skin on their necks and faces and crow’s feet wrinkles), applied a cream containing 2% MAJESTEM™ (the same amount in Ageless Glow™) twice daily on their faces and necks for 6 weeks.
After just 3 weeks, the researchers found that sagging skin on the women’s neck significantly tightened, sculpting and restoring a youthful neck line.
After 6 weeks, they found that the women’s cheeks had been lifted and their tear troughs (i.e., “eye bags”) had been reduced. What’s more, the researchers also reported that the women’s crow’s feet wrinkles had been significantly reduced and smoothed out.
Pretty incredible results in a short amount of time!
In a separate 3-week study, 106 volunteers used MAJESTEM™ and reported these results:
*86% of the participants reported softer skin
*83% reported more comfortable skin
*82% said they would you MAJESTEM™ again
*79% of the participants said they were satisfied overall
*74% said that they felt their skin was more moisturized
*67% reported that their skin felt firmer and more toned
Amazing results over just 3 weeks!
The next ingredient in Ageless Glow™ is…
2. SENESTEM™– The Collagen Stimulator
SENESTEM™ is an extract of Plantago lanceolata (Plantain), a perennial plant from Eurasia with oval, ribbed short-stemmed green leaves. Research indicates its collagen-synthesizing effects help:
*Reduce visible signs of aging and smooth the skin
*Improve skin density and thickness
*Brighten age-related pigment spots
In a placebo-controlled study, 56 women with visible signs of aging (including loose skin and pigmented age spots) applied a cream containing 2% SENESTEM™ (the same amount in Ageless Glow™) to their faces and the back of their hands twice daily for two months. Compared to the placebo group, in as little as one month, the researchers found that the participants using SENESTEM™ experienced:
*Significant improvements in skin firmness, thickness, and elasticity on the back of their hands
*Significant smoothing of crow’s feet wrinkles
*Significant reductions in pigmented age spots on their hands
Next up in Ageless Glow™ is…
3. Squalane—Nature’s Greatest Moisturizer
Squalene is an oil produced naturally in the body. It’s key to having supple, young-looking skin that is soft to the touch. However, squalene production decreases naturally with age, slowing down drastically after age thirty, resulting in dry, wrinkled skin.
In a study published in the Journal of Dermatological Science, researchers from the Department of Dermatology at Juntendo University in Tokyo found that application of a squalene-based skin rejuvenator dramatically increased hydration and improved skin barrier function.
This is why we added squalane to Ageless Glow™; it’s a super moisturizer that absorbs quickly without a greasy film, leaving your skin glowing and soft to the touch.
4. Sodium Hyaluronate—The Wrinkle Eraser
Sodium Hyaluronate (SH) has been added to Ageless Glow™ because it’s been shown to hydrate the skin and accelerate the repair of damaged skin. In fact, one gram of SH can hold up to 6L of water! It soaks up moisture like a sponge.
As a result, SH users often report that it “plumps” the appearance of wrinkles, leaving smooth skin behind.
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 40 healthy female participants showing mild to moderate signs of skin aging applied a topical SH-based cream or a placebo to their faces once daily for 30 days. After just 7 days of application, there were significant reductions in skin sagging on the face and cheek bones as well as decreases in wrinkle depth and volume. After 30 days, wrinkle volume decreased by 26.3% and wrinkle depth decreased by 21.8%.
Wow! Wrinkle volume decreased by over 26% in just 7 days! The study participants got incredible results.
Now It’s Your Turn!
These studies show impressive results with the natural ingredients found in Ageless Glow™. We know the ingredients work in studies and in the lab, and even better, the first round of "real world" feedback from users just like you is in, with rave reviews!

Here is how it works:
1. Be one of the first to secure your order of Ageless Glow™ today at the special discount link below.
2. Ageless Glow™ is shipped in a sealed airless pump container. Once it arrives, apply it twice daily—once in the morning (before applying makeup) and once at night—to your face, neck, hands, arms, chest, or wherever fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, or photoaging occurs.
3. After 30 days of use, please shoot us an email with your results so we can continue to get the word out about the remarkable skin rejuvenating, anti-aging effects of Ageless Glow!
And it's very likely that you'll want to email us earlier... After all, Ageless Glow has been shown to produce results you can see and feel in as little as 7 days… with even greater results occurring over continued use.
What’s more, Ageless Glow™ is nearly odorless with only a subtle, fresh scent from a bouquet of natural, nontoxic ingredients, including orange peel oil, sunflower seed oil, Rosa canina flower oil, cranberry seed oil, and jojoba leaf extract. So you don’t have to worry about a strong scent.
By now you may be curious about the price of Ageless Glow™, and that's a good question. When this product is released on our main website later in 2018, it will be listed at $79.
If you are familiar with elite anti-aging creams, this is a very attractive price point for a natural, premium anti aging serum that really works.
What’s more, if you compare this price to expensive and potentially dangerous cosmetic procedures like face or neck lifts, chemical peels, injections and laser treatments it’s a far safer (and MUCH less expensive) solution.
However, if you are one of the first to order before our limited second shipment sells out, you can get Ageless Glow™ today at up to $30 OFF the regular price, while supplies last.
Again, the price for a full 30-day supply will be $79, but today you will have the opportunity to invest just $49 per airless pump container as a VIP subscriber, saving up to $30 and nearly 40% per bottle, and we will even include FREE SHIPPING within the United States.
However, to avoid disappointment, you're going to need to act right away. I'm not kidding when I say we only have a relatively small amount of this second production run, and this announcement is going out to over 2 million readers.
Once it's gone, a “sold out” notice will appear at the link below, and we will not be getting more in until the end of the year, when we can obtain enough of these rare ingredients to do a larger production run.
With that in mind, here’s what to do now:
Simply click on the special VIP link below and select the number of containers of Ageless Glow™ you want to order to use on all your trouble areas.
Because of the limited supply and discount, each participant is only allowed to order a maximum of 3 containers. If you use Ageless Glow™ only on your face, one container will last 30 days.
However, if you want to use it on other areas, like your arms, necks, upper-chest, or hands, you’re going to need to get 2 or 3 containers for a 30-day supply. What’s more, as mentioned, Ageless Glow™ will sell out again this week and we won’t be getting more in until early 2018... so it makes sense to stock up today so you have enough to last you for continued use and even more impressive results.
Again, this breakthrough natural formula is only available at a $30 discount with FREE shipping to VIP readers of this email. Ageless Glow™ is not available at our regular website or anywhere else online.
In the end, the research-backed ingredients in this skin rejuvenating serum translates to ALL of these incredible benefits for you. Ageless Glow™…
