5am – A/B/C ORLANDO MASS SHOOTING: Can Anything Be Done To Prevent This From Happening Without Infringing Our Rights?
5am – D Clinton Email Had Classified Marking at Time It Was Sent. Hillary Clinton, from the moment her exclusive use of personal email for government business was exposed, has claimed nothing she sent or received was marked classified at the time. But a 2012 email released by the State Department appears to challenge that claim because it carries a classified code known as a “portion marking” – and that marking was on the email when it was sent directly to Clinton’s account. The “C” – which means it was marked classified at the confidential level – is in the left-hand-margin and relates to an April 2012 phone call with Malawi’s first female president, Joyce Banda, who took power after the death of President Mutharika in 2012. “(C) Purpose of Call: to offer condolences on the passing of President Mukharika and congratulate President Banda on her recent swearing in.” Everything after that was fully redacted before it was publicly released by the State Department — a sign that the information was classified at the time and dealt with sensitive government deliberations. A US government source said there are other Clinton emails with classified markings, or marked classified, beyond the April 2012 document.
5am – E Latest On The Orlando Shooter:
• Here’s What We Know About the Suspected Orlando Club Shooter Omar Mateen: Omar Mateen, 29, has been identified as the suspect in Sunday’s massacre that left at least 50 dead and more than 50 others wounded at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. It is the worst mass shooting in U.S. history. Mateen, of Port St. Lucie, Florida, is reportedly a U.S. citizen, but his parents were born in Afghanistan. Law enforcement officials told ABC News that Mateen was “on the radar” of U.S. officials for a period of time. During a Sunday press conference, an FBI official confirmed that Mateen first drew the attention of the FBI in 2013 when he made “inflammatory” remarks to coworkers about possible terror ties. He came under scrutiny a second time in 2014 due to a connection to a suicide bomber. Both investigations were inconclusive and no further action was taken. FBI agent Ron Hopper said investigators have “suggestions that individual has leanings towards” radical Islamic terrorism. However, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) told CNN on Sunday that local police informed him that Mateen pledged allegiance to the Islamic State.

That means defeating international terror groups, working with allies and partners to go after them wherever they are, countering their attempts to recruit people here and everywhere, and hardening our defenses at home,” she said. The former secretary of state specifically commented on the attack of an LGBT nightclub during Pride Month. “To the LGBT community: please know that you have millions of allies across our country. I am one of them. We will keep fighting for your right to live freely, openly and without fear. Hate has absolutely no place in America,” she said. She concluded her statement with a call for stricter gun control reforms, saying the incident “reminds us once more that weapons of war have no place on our streets.” According to a campaign press release, Clinton’s June 15 campaign event in Green Bay, Wisconsin will be postponed. President Obama was scheduled to attend.

But in 2012, sick of being disappointed by the Obama White House and growing more certain of her conservative beliefs, Dash decided to endorse Mitt Romney for president on Twitter. The backlash was swift and brutal.
• In There Goes My Social Life, Stacey Dash tells her whole story—how she survived a traumatic childhood, navigated Hollywood, educated herself, and became a conservative. She opens up about her relationships with mentor Bill Cosby, costar Richard Pryor, and friend Russell Simmons.
