Like many politicians with national ambitions, she has written a book about her life and her vision for the country. It’s called “True Gretch” (she told me that’s a play on the 1969 John Wayne classic “True Grit”). The book is coming out just as the presidential election is heating up, and she’s also raising her profile as a co-chair of Biden’s re-election campaign. I want to get the elephant out of the room: You’re releasing this memoir in the middle of the 2024 election cycle. It’s going to feel very dark at times, with the political rhetoric and this important election coming up.

Ilya Sutskever, the OpenAI co-founder and chief scientist who in November joined other board members to force out Sam Altman, the company’s high-profile chief executive, has helped found a new artificial intelligence company. The new start-up is called Safe Superintelligence. It aims to produce superintelligence — a machine that is more intelligent than humans — in a safe way, according to the company spokeswoman Lulu Cheng Meservey. Dr. Sutskever, who has said he regretted moving against Mr. Altman, declined to comment. She said that as it builds safe superintelligence, the company will not release other products.

The departure of the company’s chief product officer adds to a “wall of worry” Raymond James analysts said. Choe joined Lululemon more than seven years ago and became chief product officer in 2018, according to her LinkedIn. “I think that there’s a lot of people out there who believe that she was the person behind the scenes and was the most instrumental to Lululemon’s success,” Nikic said. Lulu has been “hyper aware” of dupe culture, Nikki Neuburger, then its Chief Brand Officer, previously said in an interview with CNN Business. However, Lululemon wasn’t stocked enough in these smaller sizes, which could have led these younger shoppers to competitors, Nikic said.

CNN —As we near the end of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month, I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed. Regina Kim Courtesy Regina KimBut too often, efforts to honor the contributions of Asian Americans, however well-intentioned, fall short because people fail to differentiate between Asian Americans and Asian communities outside the US. A recent study by the Asian American Foundation found that over half of Americans can’t name a single famous Asian American. This may be one reason why so many Americans can’t name any Asian Americans of note. The media needs to make a conscientious effort to seek out, identify and spotlight Asian Americans — and not just during AANHPI Heritage Month.

Since Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, killing more than 1,000 Israelis and capturing more than 200 hostages, Israel’s response has been swift and brutal. Most of Gaza’s infrastructure has been destroyed, and international pressure is mounting on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war, and to avoid a new war with Iran. In this moment, I wanted to talk to one of Netanyahu’s most vocal critics inside Israel: Yair Lapid. He briefly became prime minister of Israel in 2022 — at the time, The Atlantic deemed him “the man who could end the Netanyahu era” — and he remains a member of the Knesset. After Oct. 7, he refused to join Netanyahu’s war cabinet.

A group of stocks are about to form a chart pattern that suggests investors are bearish: the worrisome death cross. A death cross encompasses a price chart pattern that emerges when a stock's 50-day moving average slips below its 200-day moving average. Moreover, a death cross is also touted as a predictor of a forthcoming bear market pattern. CNBC used data from FactSet to screen for stocks that are approaching a death cross, and found four names including fast-food giant McDonald's and athleisure brand Lululemon . McDonald's is once again flashing a death cross signal.

Trump filed his claim for immunity on March 7, less than three weeks before the scheduled trial date at the time. When he tried last May to move his trial to federal court, his legal filings referred to his belief that he was entitled to immunity from prosecution. Even if Trump had filed his motion in September, his immunity claim faced other serious hurdles.

Disappointing sales outlooks from Lululemon and Nike prompted CNBC's Jim Cramer on Friday to wonder whether the big athletic apparel makers are ceding ground to lower-priced competitors. "Nike, Lulu — are these companies that are just charging too much when others are coming underneath them with good product? Shares of Lululemon tanked more than 16% Friday after issuing light current-quarter and full-year guidance after the closing bell Thursday. The company's finance chief said weaker U.S. traffic and a challenging consumer environment has led to the "broad-based" slowdown.

Her father, the director Roberto Rossellini, was a giant of Italian cinema.

Even among all Americans, Trump seems to be doing better. Instead of leading many voters to distrust Trump, the legal cases are leading voters to distrust the legal system. It’s important for the public to feel that the Trump prosecutions are legitimate. For many Americans, all of these distortions validate their sense that the Trump prosecutions are partisan.
