Doha, Qatar CNN —For 12 seasons, Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes penned one of the most fabled stories in the history of Formula One. Hamilton will embark on an intriguing chapter with Ferrari, while Mercedes will begin a new era spearheaded by George Russell. We’ve gone through so many highs and lows together,” Hamilton told CNN Sport in Qatar in a US and UK exclusive interview ahead of this weekend’s Grand Prix there, the penultimate race of his Mercedes career. A superb showing in Las Vegas helped lift the mood on a frustrating year for Hamilton and Mercedes. Hamilton was put through the same training used to prepare the Inspiration4 and Polaris Dawn crews for commercial spaceflight missions.

News that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's plans to hike tariffs on imports from China, Canada and Mexico sent ripples across global markets Tuesday. Asian markets traded broadly lower , but Chinese stocks held up surprisingly well. Peter Boockvar, chief investment officer at the U.S.-headquartered Bleakley Financial Group, said China is better prepared to cope with tariffs than in 2016. Referencing the impact of the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration in 2016, Boockvar said it was "negative, not a benefit" in aggregate. 'A lot of value' Beyond the U.S., Boockvar said Asian markets including China, Japan, Singapore and Vietnam were offering "a lot of value."

WASHINGTON — A former FBI informant whose false claims about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden were at "the heart" of the Republican impeachment inquiry against the president has now been indicted on tax charges. Alexander Smirnov, the former FBI informant charged with lying to the FBI about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter, has now been indicted on 10 separate tax-related charges. The charges against Smirnov, who had been a confidential human source for the FBI since 2010, were brought by David Weiss, the special counsel on the Hunter Biden case, which resulted in convictions on gun charges in June and tax charges in September. Before Smirnov was indicted, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said his claims were "the heart" of Republicans' impeachment inquiry against the president. Prosecutors said Smirnov was "actively peddling new lies that could impact U.S. elections after meeting with Russian intelligence officials" in Nov. 2023.

It said it expected $2.50 in adjusted earnings per share, versus expectations of $2.65 per share. Dell's AI server sales are reported in the company's Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG), which includes AI servers, storage, networking components, and traditional servers. The strongest part of Dell's ISG business was its Servers and Networking subsidiary, which includes AI systems. The overall ISG unit is more profitable, thanks to sales of pricier AI systems.

Week 12 saw plenty of heavy favorites face underdogs, but it didn’t prove as simple as many thought. Barkley rushed for 109 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in the Eagles’ Week 1 victory over the Green Bay Packers. While that still might be the case, it’s not been smooth sailing for the Texans through 12 weeks of the season. He has struggled behind a porous offensive line and that affected the running game on Sunday with Mixon only having 22 yards on 14 carries. The Seahawks currently lead the division having gotten the favorable tiebreaker thanks to their Week 12 home victory over the Cardinals.

CNN —“Demure,” a word that went viral over the summer, has been named Dictionary.com’s 2024 word of the year — beating out other contenders like “brainrot,” “brat,” and “weird.”In an announcement Monday, the site said that the word experienced a “meteoric rise in usage” in 2024 — up 1,200% between January and August — a spike that was largely attributed to TikToker and beauty influencer Jools Lebron’s popularization of the phrase “very demure, very mindful” in a series of satirical videos that shook the internet. “That’s the joke!”The satire is clearest in a clip in which the TikTok star asserts that she’s going to behave in a demure, mindful way while going out on the Las Vegas Strip. I don’t dog-ear pages, I put in a bookmark,” RuPaul said in a video promoting online bookstore Allstora. Lebron, who is transgender, said that the fame from her “demure” videos has helped her finance the rest of her transition. “Brat,” another word that has taken on new meaning in 2024, was named Collins Dictionary’s word of 2024 for being one of the most talked about words on and offline.

While it would set a new record as well (keep in mind, those figures aren’t adjusted for inflation), this holiday season might be a little more muted than last.

Formula 1 announced Monday that it has approved the entry of GM and Cadillac as a new team on the grid, bringing a storied American car maker into the pinnacle of motorsport. But the added promise from GM to become a “works” team — building both a car and a power unit — led to a breakthrough. It will be the first time since 2016 that F1 has had more than 10 teams on the grid. One of those existing teams, Haas F1, is owned by American Gene Haas with headquarters in North Carolina.

☆ The US is on the cusp of a nuclear renaissance. One problem: Americans are terrified of the waste
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-25 | by ( Ella Nilsen | Bill Weir | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +11 min

This is one of several misconceptions about nuclear energy: America’s nuclear waste is not buried in a mountain or tucked at the bottom of a deep, rocky cavern. That is almost entirely because Americans are by and large opposed to living anywhere near nuclear waste, and suspicious of governments’ or utilities’ attempts to assuage nuclear fears. The byproduct of nuclear energy is still associated with atomic bombs or nuclear meltdowns. On the threshold of America’s nuclear energy renaissance, federal officials are pleading with communities to say yes to storing spent fuel. No state has yet raised its hand to store the country’s nuclear energy waste, despite the lucrative deals it could foment.
