Married musicians Beyonce, left, and rapper Jay-Z, during an April 4, 2013
trip to Cuba, and President Obama.APYou generally don't want to get into
a rap rivalry with Jay-Z.But the White House on Thursday challenged the
mega-artist after he released a track suggesting he got "White House clearance"
for his controversial trip to Cuba with wife Beyonce.Jay Carney, President
Obama's press secretary, categorically denied the claim -- reiterating that
the Treasury Department handles clearance."I guess nothing rhymes with Treasury,"
Carney joked, before clarifying: "The White House, from the president on
down, had nothing to do with anybody's ... travel to Cuba. That
is something that Treasury handles."Jay-Z released the track Thursday shortly
after returning from Cuba, a trip that drew criticism from Cuban-American
lawmakers in Congress who questioned how the couple got permission to travel
to the communist-run island.The rapper boasted at length about the visit,
suggesting Obama was involved."I done turned Havana into Atlanta," he rapped.
"Boy from the hood, but got White House clearance."He continued: "Politicians

Malloy, said the governor is committed to job creation, but additional gun
restrictions were paramount following the shooting deaths in December of
20 children and six educators at an elementary school in Newtown."On this
particular issue he's been clear: We need to prioritize public safety and
this bill will improve public safety," he said.The law adds more than
100 firearms to the state's assault weapons ban and creates what officials
have called the nation's first dangerous weapon offender registry and eligibility
rules for buying ammunition.Malkowski said he's received many emails from
customers "fed up with Connecticut.""They urged us to pick up and leave,"
he said.Malkowski said he spoke Tuesday with Texas economic development
officials trying to lure the company, which was founded in 2003 and
employs more than 200 employees."It's something we'll strongly consider,"
he said, adding that leaving Connecticut would be difficult. "If you're
a lawyer with a laptop, that's one thing," he said. "It's not
something we're going to do easily."Jonathan Scalise, owner of Ammunition
Storage Components, also of New Britain, said he's received offers from
