TODAY'S TALKING POINTS The FBI seized Hillary Clinton's emails. Officials investigating the former secretary of state to see if she sent or received classified information on an unsecured system reportedly discovered that two emails on Clinton's private server were marked above top secret. Clinton, who has maintained that nothing on her server was classified when she saw it, agreed Tuesday to hand over her email server to investigators.  The officer who fatally shot an unarmed Texas football player was fired. Arlington Police Officer Brad Miller reportedly "used poor judgement and made a tactical error" while responding to a burglary call that resulted in the shooting of 19-year-old Christian Taylor.  In Ferguson, police released surveillance footage Tuesday they say shows Tyrone Harris pulling a gun from his waistband before he was shot by officers. Iraq’s parliament OK’d an intense government overhaul plan. Reform measures passed Tuesday aim to eliminate the corruption within the political system that began during government restructuring after the U.S.' 2003 invasion.

Amnesty International recommended the decriminalization of sex work. The human rights group's endorsement marks a historic policy shift on those involved in often-stigmatized adult consensual sex work.

While this test is required for many veterans, it isn’t for combat vets. Nearly 19,000 applications have been listed as “pending” for periods between one month and five years. After the five-year mark, combat veterans lose their eligibility for free health care.
