Former U.S. President Trump found guilty on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records during his trial at Manhattan Criminal Court May 30th 2024 in New York City. Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, was convicted last month on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in the historic case. The probation interview is required by the court as part of the former president's pre-sentencing report. Judge Juan Merchan, who is presiding over the hush money case, permitted Blanche to be present for the probation interview over a video call after prosecutors did not object. Some legal experts noted that holding a probation interview over a video conference call is unusual but having the former president in a New York probation would also be unprecedented.

Renowned psychotherapist, author, podcast host and speaker Esther Perel has one, central message that she hopes her work communicates: "The quality of your relationships determines the quality of your life." This applies not only to your personal life, but your professional one, too. "You love your job in part, in large part, because you love the people that you're working with and you feel loved by them," Perel said. The process of making friends at work can seem less straightforward than making friends in your personal life. Still, you can forge meaningful bonds at work if you make consistent efforts to engage with your co-workers.

The heirs to Walmart founder Sam Walton have added $53.7 billion to their combined wealth this year. Only Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has seen a larger increase in his net worth on Bloomberg's Billionaire Index. AdvertisementIt's no secret that Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang has had an explosive year so far when it comes to his personal net worth. Huang has more than doubled his fortune since January, adding more than $62 billion as the chipmaker's stock is up 40% year-to-date. And while Mark Zuckerberg saw the second-highest growth in individual wealth in 2024, according to Bloomberg's Billionaire Index, the combined gains seen by the Walmart heirs outpaced the Meta CEO.

Jackson valued the four tickets at $3,711.84, according to her annual disclosure form, which covered all of 2023. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson disclosed receiving concert tickets from pop superstar Beyoncé, one of several notable items revealed Friday in the high court's latest financial disclosure reports. The Beyoncé tickets may have been the flashiest gifts given last year to a member of the nation's most powerful court, but they were not the only ones. The most recent justice to join the high court also disclosed more income from a book than any of her colleagues last year, the filings showed. Jackson is the only justice on the court who was nominated by President Joe Biden.

Thomas received 103 gifts with a total value of more than $2.4 million between 2004 and 2023, the judicial reform group Fix the Court said in a report Thursday. Fix the Court's analysis found that Alito accepted 16 gifts worth a combined $170,095. Counting those gifts, Thomas' total two-decade haul is valued at nearly $4.2 million. The value and number of gifts Thomas received also eclipsed those accepted by eight retired or dead Supreme Court justices whose tenures overlapped his service on the court, which began in 1991. Antonin Scalia, a conservative justice who died in 2016 while on the court, accepted 67 gifts worth about $210,000 during his tenure, which began in 1986.

Stock splits like Nvidia's don't matter, or do they? With its stock hovering around $1,200 a share, Nvidia's 10-for-1 split kicks in after Friday's market close. Clearly, employee compensation in the form of stock options becomes far more manageable. Options The impact of stock splits is clearly felt in the options market – whether that is good or bad, well, it depends on the investor. Bottom line Stock splits don't have any impact on a company's underlying business fundamentals — and, therefore, our determination on whether a company is investable.

If you want to see into the future of car making, the Formula One rulebook has often been a good place to start. But the sport's new regulations suggest that car makers are not pinning all their hopes on electrification. In 2026, F1 cars will be powered by hybrid engines with a 50:50 split between electric-power and internal combustion; crucially, the combustion engine will be powered by synthetic e-fuels. Another is Audi, which left Formula E in 2021 to join F1 in 2026, the same year that the German automotive company will stop producing new combustion engine cars and only release electric vehicles. One of the products Audi is ramping up is synthetic e-fuels, which use renewably-generated electricity to break water into hydrogen and oxygen before combining them with carbon dioxide.

New York prosecutors told a judge they oppose a request by former President Donald Trump to lift the gag order on him in his criminal hush money case. The Manhattan District Attorney's Office asked Judge Juan Merchan to keep the gag order on Trump in place "at least through the sentencing hearing" for the former president next month, and "the resolution of any post-trial motions." Trump's lawyers earlier this week asked Merchan to vacate the gag order, arguing that the grounds for it no longer exist because the trial had concluded, with Trump being convicted on all 34 felony counts. But prosecutors in their new letter to Merchan said the gag order was "based not only on the need to avoid threats to the fairness of the trial itself ... but also on the Court's broader 'obligation to prevent actual harm to the integrity of the proceedings.'

Walmart on Wednesday said it will offer new training programs and certifications to fill high-demand roles across its business, such as HVAC technicians, opticians and software engineers. The retail giant aims to retain market share gains, particularly in the grocery department, during a period of high inflation. Walmart also kicked off a $9 billion project to upgrade and modernize more than 1,400 of its stores, representing more than a quarter of the total Walmart stores across the country. The company's total annual compensation for the median employee was $27,642 in the most recent fiscal year, according to the company's 2024 proxy report. Those skilled trade jobs pay between $19 and $45 per hour, said Lo Stomski, the company's chief talent officer.

The incredible oblivion of Judge Marvin Isgur

On a mild Houston day in March 2021, Judge Marvin Isgur prepared to oversee the only case on his docket that morning. In October 2023, the Fifth Circuit Court rebuked Judge David Jones but said that his longtime colleague, Judge Marvin Isgur, had been "unaware" of Jones' inappropriate relationship. "But only Judge Isgur knows what he knew or didn't know about the relationship." Much of this work was in cases before either Judge Isgur or Judge Jones. Isgur can continue to hear the case, he ruled, writing in the December 2023 opinion that lawyers for the creditor "failed to demonstrate much other than that former Judge Jones and Judge Isgur are close friends."

Two years later, abortion rights remain a major issue in the 2024 election. Vice President Kamala Harris has taken the lead in the Biden campaign's push to highlight abortion rights on the campaign trail. The Senate filibuster requires a de facto 60-vote majority for legislation that would enshrine nationwide abortion rights protection into law. AdvertisementSome legal experts have also questioned whether Congress has the power to guarantee abortion access. Project 2025, an unofficial partnership of right-wing think tanks, has outlined an ambitious series of plans to curtail abortion rights if Trump wins in November.
