Gawker: Hillary Clinton One-Ups Donald Trump by Actually Releasing Her 2016 Personal Financial Disclosure (http://gawker.com/hillary-clinton-one-ups-donald-trump-by-actually-releas-1777302424)

"Clinton released the actual filing just hours after Donald Trump released a statement describing his. 'I filed my PFD, which I am proud to say is the largest in the history of the FEC,' Trump claimed. 'Despite the fact that I am allowed extensions, I have again filed my report, which is 104 pages, on time.'"
CNN: Poll: Clinton up double-digits on Sanders in NJ (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/19/politics/hillary-clinton-bernie-sanders-donald-trump-new-jersey-poll/index.html)

"Clinton leads Sanders 54% to 40% among likely voters in New Jersey's Democratic primary, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday. Six percent of Democrats say they are undecided and 15% say they could change their mind before the contest."

New York Times: Benghazi Panel Chief Nullifies a Key Republican Theory, Democrats Say (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/18/us/politics/benghazi-panel-chief-nullifies-key-republican-theory.html)

"The chairman of the House select committee investigating the 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya, said on Tuesday that military reinforcements could not have reached the besieged diplomatic outpost in time to prevent the killings of four Americans, including Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens."

Gawker: There Is Now Officially No Reason to Believe the Benghazi "Stand Down" Conspiracy Theory (http://gawker.com/there-is-now-officially-no-reason-to-believe-the-bengha-1777432729)

"Republican legislators and the various American filter feeders that populate YouTube's comment section have long clung to the theory that Hillary Clinton intentionally delayed (or blocked) military reinforcements that could've saved the American embassy in Benghazi. Today, that theory should be over forever."

New York Daily News: Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton both fewer than 100 delegates shy of securing nominations; both are likely to seal the deal on June 7 (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/trump-clinton-100-delegates-shy-securing-noms-article-1.2641277)

"The former secretary of state is likely to reach her magic number on June 7, when a huge slate of primaries (in California, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico and the Dakotas) will put up for grabs more than 800 delegates.

"Even if Clinton were to lose every remaining contest, she will still get to the mark, because the delegates are all allocated proportionally, based on each election's results."

NEW YORKER: A NARROW BUT SIGNIFICANT WIN FOR HILLARY CLINTON IN KENTUCKY (http://www.newyorker.com/news/john-cassidy/a-narrow-but-significant-win-for-hillary-clinton-in-kentucky)

"Since no exit polls were carried out in Kentucky, it's hard to make precise statements about how Clinton managed to eke out a victory there. The returns showed that she defeated Sanders in urban areas, which are more racially diverse. In Jefferson County, the most populous county in Kentucky, which contains Louisville, the largest city in the state, Clinton's margin of victory was an impressive seventeen percentage points. Sanders came out ahead in many other areas, particularly those with coalfields. Of the state's hundred and twenty counties, he won eighty-two. But he couldn't quite overcome Clinton's advantage in the major population centers."
