Four (4) New Permits; CLR Reports Several Very Nice Wells In Camp Oil Field -- January 19, 2016

Just some of the headlines we woke up to after a 3-day weekend:

• Gun background checks hit record number in President Obama's year of the war on guns.
• In President Obama's last year of presidency, the New York Times notes the epidemic of drug overdose deaths.
• US budget deficit to widen for first time since 2009.
• Murders jumped 6% in first half of 2015, FBI says.
• Old story, recycled: these numbers terrify GM, Ford. 
• EPA jumps right on an oil company within minutes of an "allegation." But if we're talking contaminated water going to a poor African-American community, e-mails show EPA officials knew as far back as February 2015 that Flint, Mich., residents may be drinking water with high levels of lead - NBC News
• if a retired general has been shown to divulge "secret information" to a lover/biographer, he will be demoted retroactively; meanwhile, e-mails from Hillary Clinton's home server contained information classified at levels higher than previously known, according to document obtained by NBC News, and this, too, will, be ignored by the administration and she hasn't even been interviewed by the FBI yet
