CNN —From his seaside Florida resort, Donald Trump is holding a casting call to fill the toughest job in Washington: attorney general. Current and former Justice officials anticipate eventual departures in some parts of the department and employees being sidelined and forced out. The Justice Department is also charged with defending administration actions in court, covering issues from health care to the environment to gun control. “Attorney General Jeff Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes,” he wrote in a Twitter post in July 2017. Trump told Fox Business in 2020 that Barr should indict Obama, Biden and others because of the Russia investigation.

"This can be a great way for people to boost their retirement savings," certified financial planner Jamie Bosse, senior advisor at CGN Advisors in Manhattan, Kansas, previously told CNBC. This can be a great way for people to boost their retirement savings. How much older workers save for retirementThe 401(k) catch-up contribution change is "very good" for older workers who want to save more for retirement, said Dave Stinnett, Vanguard's head of strategic retirement consulting. Some 35% of baby boomers feel "significantly behind" in retirement savings, according to a Bankrate survey that polled roughly 2,450 U.S. adults in August. "But not everyone age 50 or older is maxing out [401(k) plans] already," Stinnett said.

President-elect Donald Trump raised eyebrows when he decided to hold a campaign rally in the Bronx in late May. Results so far show Trump winning more than 27% of the vote in the Bronx, shrinking his margin of defeat there significantly. Not only did the Teamsters decline to endorse, Murtaugh noted, but they also released polling in swing states, including Pennsylvania, that showed Trump winning over large numbers of their members. ‘We have no easy path here’For one Democratic policy aide, the biggest concern was movement among younger voters. And what happened [Tuesday] was a Louisville Slugger baseball bat going upside the head of the Democratic Party for not telling people the truth.

Rudy Giuliani (C) arrives at the New York court following a judge's order compelling his appearance in the defamation case filed by Georgia election workers in New York, United States on November 07, 2024. "All the property must be turned over to the receiver and if not, I will hold him in contempt," the judge told Caruso, whose client was by turns angry, animated and frustrated during the proceeding. "The vast majority of physical property, we have no idea where it is," Nathan said at Thursday's hearing. Nathan alleged that Giuliani has opened secret bank accounts and created limited liability companies on the heels of the defamation verdict last year. Before he entered court Thursday, Giuliani fumed over a judge's order that he show up in person saying it is "like a political persecution."

Caroline Ellison, the star witness in the prosecution of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, reported to a low-security federal prison in Connecticut on Thursday, according to a spokesman for the Bureau of Prisons. The federal Probation Department had recommended that Judge Lewis Kaplan sentence Ellison to three years of supervised release, with no time behind bars. Kaplan allowed Ellison to remain free on bail until surrendering to prison either on or after Nov. 7. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison in March and also was ordered to pay $11 billion in forfeiture by Kaplan. Both Bankman-Fried and Ellison had faced the same statutory maximum sentence of about 110 years in prison for their crimes.

Being elected president will likely result in the federal criminal cases against him being dismissed, while his state criminal cases could at the least be frozen until after he leaves office. Trump’s legal team, meanwhile, is evaluating its next steps for how to get all four criminal cases resolved, and plan to argue soon that all of the cases “must stop immediately,” according to a source directly involved in the discussions. Here's a look at where the various legal cases against Trump stand — and how they could be affected by his victory. They argue that some of the evidence presented to the grand jury and at the criminal trial should not have been allowed in the wake of the high court's ruling. Trump's victory likely won't impact his pending appeals of the civil judgments against him that total more than $550 million.

AdvertisementDonald Trump will use his new status as president-elect in a renewed effort to challenge his upcoming sentencing on his Manhattan hush-money conviction, legal experts predicted Wednesday. A US District Court judge rejected that effort in September, and it remains under appeal by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. "Any of those tracks can get you to the US Supreme Court pretty fast, if that's his goal," Paradis said. REUTERS/Jane RosenbergA 'unique place in this nation's history'Merchan addressed the unique circumstances of prosecuting, trying, and sentencing Trump in September, when he agreed to delay the sentencing for a second time. "A state judge is now potentially setting himself up to sentence the most powerful federal officer in the world."

CNN —While Florida generally makes it challenging for people in the state with felony convictions to regain their voting rights, former President Donald Trump will have no issue casting a ballot for himself today in Palm Beach. The first former US president convicted of a felony, Trump is scheduled to be sentenced on November 26. Under Florida law, if a voter has an out-of-state conviction, Florida will defer to that state’s laws for how a felon can regain his or her voting rights. For other Floridians with felony convictions, the rules are not so simple. A successful 2018 ballot initiative restoring voting rights to those who had completed the terms of their sentence was gutted by state Republican lawmakers.

They are also trying to take possession, at the court’s direction, of Giuliani’s 26 luxury watches and a 1980 Mercedes-Benz he kept in Florida. The expensive furniture Giuliani had used in real estate photos of the property earlier this year was moved out four weeks ago, he said. Josh Ritchie/Bloomberg/Getty Images“We note that broadcasts, such as those described above, currently provide Mr. Giuliani’s only source of earned income,” Giuliani’s attorney, Kenneth Caruso, told the court. Moss and Freeman’s team have already complained to the judge about Giuliani using the car on Tuesday, submitting to the court the photos. Separately, Giuliani’s lawyers say the property that was in the Manhattan apartment is now in a storage facility on Long Island, but Freeman and Moss’ team say they are struggling to get access to the items there, too.

TGI Fridays, an American casual dining chain, said on Saturday that it has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after grappling with prolonged financial challenges and a collapsed deal with UK-based Hostmore. Privately owned by TriArtisan Capital Advisors, TGI Fridays has been a beloved dining destination since its inaugural bar opened in Manhattan, New York, over five decades ago, in 1965. TGI Fridays, owner and operator of 39 domestic “Thank God it’s Friday!” restaurants, said it maintains operations across its corporate-owned ‘happy hour’ dining places in the U.S., adding that it has secured a financing commitment to support operations. Rohit Manocha, executive chairman of TGI Fridays, said: “The primary driver of our financial challenges resulted from COVID-19 and our capital structure. Hostmore, which operated TGI Fridays in Britain through its unit Thursdays (UK), saw its shares crash 90% after the news, and later announced its intention to enter administration, overwhelmed by debt.

TGI Fridays files for bankruptcy

New York CNN —TGI Fridays Inc., the American casual dining chain, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Saturday. The bankruptcy affects TGI Fridays’ parent company, which operates 39 restaurants, and not the franchisees that control the remaining locations. TGI Fridays is privately owned by TriArtisan Capital Advisors, a private equity firm, so financial results aren’t released. In September, TGI Fridays’ operations in the United Kingdom also ran into trouble. TGI Fridays joins Red Lobster and Buca di Beppo chains, both of which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in recent months.

Lawyers for Mr. Adams had argued that the prosecution’s case fell short of meeting the federal definition of bribery. They pointed to a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that raised the bar for prosecutors to bring corruption cases. Legal experts who reviewed the indictment against Mr. Adams have said that the ruling could present a challenge for prosecutors. He discounted the defense’s argument that because Mr. Adams was Brooklyn borough president when he reached out to the fire commissioner about the consulate building that the act could not be described as bribery. Mr. Scotten noted that the outreach occurred in late summer of 2021, after Mr. Adams had won the Democratic mayoral primary and was all but certain to be New York City’s next mayor.
