“The Devil,” a U.S. fugitive who was featured on “America’s Most Wanted,” has been captured in Mexico, the United States Marshals Service said. Antonio Riano, 62, was arrested Thursday in his hometown of Zapotitlan Palmas, State of Oaxaca, Mexico, officials said, where he was found to be working an ironic job. “When Riano was arrested in Mexico he was found to be working as a local police officer,” the agency said in a press release on Thursday. Afterwards, he fled the United States allegedly to avoid prosecution. After being captured, Riano was flown from Mexico City to Cincinnati, then transported to the Butler County Jail.

CNN —A Manhattan jury found Donald Trump guilty of all 34 charges of falsifying business records Thursday, an unprecedented and historic verdict that makes Trump the first former president in American history to be convicted of a felony. And if he defeats President Joe Biden in November, he will be the first sitting president in history to be a convicted felon. The verdict in the hush money trial was announced after jurors deliberated for nearly 12 hours over two days. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg speaks to the media after a jury found former President Donald Trump guilty on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, on Thursday, May 30, in New York. “There’s only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: At the ballot box,” Biden wrote on X, linking to a fundraising page.

Mr. De Niro said that Mr. Trump had engaged in a “coward’s violence” after the 2020 election. The news conference was the sort of thing the Trump campaign would have done from the beginning if the political situation were reversed. The Biden campaign has rarely discussed that case or the verdict against Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump has sought to tie together all four of his pending criminal cases and has argued baselessly that Mr. Biden is behind them all. Steven Cheung, a Trump campaign spokesman, said the Biden campaign was “making a political mockery” of the criminal case with its appearance.

In an unprecedented trial, Mr. Trump is spending most of this week, and much of the coming month or two, in a Manhattan courtroom facing criminal charges. In 2020, he narrowly defeated Mr. Trump in Pennsylvania by about 80,000 votes. “I went to school here, right?” Mr. Trump, a graduate of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, reminded his audience. They say it is imperative that Mr. Biden campaign in western Pennsylvania, as well as swing areas like Erie County, which Mr. Biden flipped in 2020. Mr. Trump said last week that he would not, reversing a position he held during his term in the White House.

☆ Inside Biden’s 2024 campaign media strategy that bypasses the Beltway press

In fact, Biden has engaged in a number of interviews this year, particularly with the Black and Hispanic press. “People in D.C. and New York may not always see it,” Michael Tyler, the Biden campaign communications director, told me by phone. The campaign argues that it adds up to media playbook that is inclusive of new media entities and other platforms with broad reach. “Number of times Jason Bateman has done a sit-down interview with President Biden: 2. Some of Biden’s hesitation to speak with the traditional news media likely stems from his frustration with how members of the press have covered him and his campaign.

news analysisWhen it comes down to it, a lot of Democrats wish President Biden were not running this fall. Image Supporters greeted President Biden as his motorcade left the airport in Brownsville, Texas, earlier this week. Some privately say that Georgia and Arizona may be out of reach, requiring Mr. Biden to sweep Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Mr. Biden, 81, is just a little older than Mr. Trump, 77, and both have exhibited moments of confusion and memory lapses. After his annual physical this past week, Mr. Biden’s doctor pronounced him “fit for duty.” But polls show that more of the public is unsettled by Mr. Biden’s advancing years than Mr. Trump’s.

☆ Hamas: What to know about the group and its strategy
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-09 | by ( Nadeen Ebrahim | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +8 min

CNN —The brazen attack by Palestinian militant group Hamas on Israel that began on Saturday will be seen as a turning point in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict with far-reaching repercussions, analysts say. Israel pledged revenge, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing “mighty vengeance.” Hamas said it was prepared for all scenarios. Palestinian Hamas militants attend the funeral of their comrade in the southern Gaza Strip in August 2017. The Israeli military said Monday that Hamas had taken “dozens” of hostages and Hamas has said it has abducted more than 100 people. Hamas’ large-scale offensive shows that the group knows that the coming war may be an existential one, experts say.

Michael and Isis’ sister were part of the same extended friend group at college, so he was intrigued to meet Isis. But Isis’ sister was, at first, less convinced.

☆ FASB to Expand Use of Accounting Method to More Tax-Credit Investments
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-19 | by ( Mark Maurer | ) www.wsj.com time to read: +4 min

The Financial Accounting Standards Board is moving to permit companies to apply a certain accounting method to more tax-credit investments, enabling them to record similar spending in a consistent way. Federal and state governments offer tax-credit programs to encourage investment in areas such as affordable housing, community development and clean energy. In recent years, more businesses have invested in renewable-energy tax credits as investors push them to boost corporate sustainability efforts. PREVIEWThe FASB, which sets accounting standards for U.S. companies, on Wednesday voted to allow companies to use this amortization method for any tax-credit investments that meet certain criteria. Bank of America Corp. said in October it was concerned that the proposal was too narrow and that it wouldn’t meet the FASB’s goal of having similar accounting rules for similar tax-credit structures.
