| Posted: 10 Sep 2019 07:19 AM PDT I am David Chipman. I spent 25 years as a special agent for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). I stopped the illegal flow of guns from Virginia to New York, was on the ATF SWAT team, and served as Special Agent in Charge of ATF's Firearms Programs. Now I work with former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords to save lives from gun violence. We do a lot of cool things. Yesterday we put out a video featuring some of the top Democratic candidates for president. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXQ-5nTpQbc&feature=youtu.be Ask me anything.

| Discussion Thread: North Carolina Special Congressional Elections (Tuesday, September 10, 2019) Posted: 10 Sep 2019 05:03 AM PDT Introduction Today, voters in two Congressional Districts in North Carolina head to the polls in special elections to fill seats in North Carolina's 3rd and 9th districts. The 3rd district was left vacant following the death of the late Congressman Walter Jones in February of this year, while the North Carolina State Board of Elections had unanimously refused to certify the results of last year's election in the 9th district and ordered a new election, following an investigation suggesting that then-winner Mark Harris had employed an independent contractor to commit election fraud to alter the outcome of the election. If you're a North Carolinian in that neck of the woods and haven't yet done so, please take the time to vote! North Carolina also has same day voter registration if you aren't yet registered. Polls are open from 6:30AM to 7:30PM. Elections North Carolina 3rd District: NC-03 has a Cook Partisan Voting Index (PVI) of R+12. President Trump carried this district by a 61-37 margin over Hillary Clinton in 2016. * Democrat: Allen Thomas (former mayor of Greenville) * Republican: Greg Murphy (state representative) North Carolina 9th District: NC-09 has a PVI of R+8. President Trump carried this district by a 54-43 margin over Hillary Clinton in 2016. * Democrat: Dan McCready (businessman) * Republican: Dan Bishop (state senator) Results* North Carolina State Bureau of Elections Note from the ModeratorsThis is a test of Reddit's new chat discussion view.

| Posted: 10 Sep 2019 09:15 AM PDT "President Trump fired John R. Bolton, his third national security adviser, on Tuesday amid fundamental disagreements over how to handle major foreign policy challenges like Iran, North Korea and Afghanistan. Mr. Trump announced the decision on Twitter. "I informed John Bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the White House. I disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions, as did others in the Administration, and therefore I asked John for his resignation, which was given to me this morning. I thank John very much for his service. I will be naming a new National Security Advisor next week.' - NY Times" (edited) Submissions that may interest you[link] [comments]  | ||
