Two top Senate Democrats are calling for President-elect Donald Trump's potential appointees to be required to disclose any communications they had with Boris Epshteyn, a longtime Trump adviser, after allegations recently surfaced that Epshteyn was soliciting financial payments in connection to their efforts to secure government appointments. "All nominees appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee should immediately act to retain all communications with Mr. Epshteyn, provide those materials to the Committee well in advance of their hearing date, and be prepared to testify regarding any discussions with Mr. Epshteyn about receiving a potential appointment in the incoming administration," Democratic Sens. Richard Durbin of Illinois and Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island wrote in a letter shared with CBS News and the conservative publication Just the News . The letter was addressed to Republican Sens. Lindsay Graham of South Carolina and Chuck Grassley of Iowa, and also copied to Trump's transition team leader Susie Wiles. It asks that the senior Republicans require any Trump appointees who come before the Judiciary Committee for confirmation to "preserve and produce to the Committee any communications with Mr. Epshteyn." The senators wrote that "questions remain regarding whether any nominees made promises or other assurances to Mr. Epshteyn as a condition of his support." A transition source called the letter a "pathetic Lawfare tactic." Epshteyn previously told CBS News he was honored to be working for President-elect Trump and that the allegations against him were patently false. "These fake claims are false and defamatory and will not distract us from Making America Great Again," Epshteyn said in his statement. Graham's office said it would defer comment to Grassley, the incoming Judiciary Committee chairman. A spokesperson for Grassley said in a statement, "Committee members will have the opportunity to ask nominees questions on these issues when they come before the Senate for a hearing." Late last month, the New York Times reported that attorney David Warrington, who will be Trump's incoming White House counsel, conducted a review into the allegations against Epshteyn and concluded that Epshteyn had solicited payment from at least two people. The Times reported that Warrington recommended that Trump keep his distance from Epshteyn. Last month, CBS News reported that Trump's transition team was grappling with internal strife over Epshteyn's conduct related to possible candidates for positions in the Trump administration. At least one Republican politician, former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens , alleged in a sworn declaration to the transition team that "Mr. Epshteyn's overall tone and behavior gave me the impression of an implicit expectation to engage in business dealings with him before he would advocate for or suggest my appointment to the President." "This created a sense of unease and pressure on my part," said the declaration, which was first obtained by the online publication Just the News and shared with CBS News. Greitens and his attorney, Timothy Parlatore, authenticated the one-page document to CBS News. Parlatore, who has been critical of Epshteyn in the past, confirmed to CBS News that the declaration was submitted in connection with the internal investigation being conducted by Warrington, who also served as general counsel to the Trump campaign. The Trump transition team confirmed it had conducted a review and now intended to move on from the issue, as first reported by CNN . "As is standard practice, a broad review of the campaign's consulting agreements has been conducted and completed, including as to Boris, among others," said transition spokesman Steven Cheung at the time. "We are now moving ahead together as a team to help President Trump Make America Great Again."

Consideration was given to recruiting women into Northern Ireland’s new police force on a 50:50 basis with men to address their “severe under-representation”, declassified files have revealed. However, legal advice was that a policy that half of new recruits to the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) should be women was “not viable”, a memo from 2002 said. Stormont officials did seek legal advice that year on whether the new force’s policy of recruiting 50% of all officers from the Catholic community could be challenged as discriminatory towards ethnic minorities. Details are contained in documents held at the Public Record Office in Belfast . Hundreds of the files are being opened for public viewing under the 30/20 year rule. The majority of the files deal with events in 2003, although some are from earlier years. The PSNI replaced the RUC in 2001 following a number of reforms proposed by Lord Patten. Catholics had been under-represented in the RUC, so a 50:50 recruitment policy ran for the first decade, meaning one Catholic recruit for every one person from a Protestant or other background. A file shows an exchange of emails between civil servants in the Office of the First Minister/Deputy First Minister (OFMDFM) following a PSNI human rights conference hosted in October 2002. One of the emails was seeking further information on comments at the conference about recruiting people from ethnic minorities to the force. A responding email said: “It’s all about the Patten formula of 50/50 recruitment: 50% Roman Catholic and 50% Protestant and Others. Minority Ethnics fall into the Others. “The issue, at present, is that most applicants still fall into the latter category (around 65% from memory) so this increases the competition within this grouping and makes the candidate less likely to be successful – this could therefore disadvantage Minority Ethnics. “Joe (Stewart) suggested that options could be to move Minority Ethnics to the Roman Catholic Category or alternatively create a 3rd category, say of 2%. “The issue needs further consideration including how any requirement for change could be progressed.” Another email adds: “When the Race Directive was being negotiated, we drew NIO’s (Northern Ireland Office) attention to the 50/50 recruitment policy and suggested they might want to take this up as we thought it could potentially be discriminatory on the grounds of race (likely to be proportionally more non-RC ethnic minorities than RC). “NIO did not not pursue.” Within the file there are clippings from media reports at the time where concern is being raised about the impact of 50:50 recruitment on police numbers after then PSNI chief constable Hugh Orde announced he was axing the force’s band due to resource pressures. Another internal email was then sent on December 12 under the title “50/50 Recruitment and Race”. It says: “Consideration was also given to including women on a 50-50 basis but legal advice at the time was that this was not viable despite their severe under-representation in the police force.” It says the “50:50 split Catholic/non-Catholic has recently survived a legal challenge”. The email continues: “There may still be a point (although unpopular to argue) that the percentage ethnic minority is too small to claim disadvantage/indirect discrimination – ironically the higher the percentage population of ethnic minorities, the stronger would be the claim for advantage/indirect discrimination because the lower the chance of recruitment to the PSNI (ie because the larger the share of the non-Catholic pool). “Interestingly, a stronger challenge could be brought by a young person for age discrimination whom statistics consistently show is more likely to be not religious and so in the ‘non Catholic’ pool. “Politically, there could be difficulties because there is a high profile agenda in GB at present to recruit ethnic minorities into the police service post-Macpherson/Lawrence.” There is also a draft note seeking legal advice on the issue which states that the 50:50 recruitment policy “would seem to be incompatible with the implementation of the (Race) Directive”.

WASHINGTON − President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son Hunter Biden , who was convicted of federal gun charges and tax evasion, rocked the political world with Republican lawmakers and President-elect Donald Trump criticizing him for the move. Biden’s pardon came after months of presidential and White House denials that Hunter Biden's convictions would be wiped clean. But Biden isn’t the only president to use a pardon to erase a family member's federal conviction. He joins a short list of others who have taken similar actions - including Trump himself. More: Hunter Biden pardon 'unprecedented' and 'very unusual,' experts say Donald Trump pardoned Jared Kushner's father President-elect Donald Trump during his first term pardoned Charles Kushner, father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, after he was convicted of preparing false tax returns, retaliating against a cooperating witness , and making false statements to the Federal Election Commission in 2005. Sign-up for Your Vote: Text with the USA TODAY elections team. Trump said at the time that Charles Kushner was devoted to philanthropic organizations and causes, which overshadowed his conviction. More: Trump links Hunter Biden's pardon to Jan. 6 rioters Charles Kushner was prosecuted by Chris Christie , who later was elected governor of New Jersey and was a top Trump ally until Jared Kushner reportedly blocked him from being names White House chief of staff. Trump, now president-elect, has named Charles Kushner the next U.S. ambassador to France . More: Who did Donald Trump pardon? What to know about Charles Kushner, Steve Bannon, other top allies Bill Clinton pardoned his brother Former President Bill Clinton on his last day in office on Jan. 20, 2001, pardoned his half-brother Roger Clinton, who spent one year in prison on drug charges, according to the Washington Post.

Forces including Greater Manchester, West Midlands and the Metropolitan police recorded sharp increases in antisemitic offences in the weeks after the outbreak of the conflict in the Middle East in October last year. The same forces then saw an increase in Islamophobic offences after the knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport in July that left three young girls dead and several more injured, and led to violent disorder in towns and cities across the country. The figures, obtained by the PA Media news agency using freedom of information requests, show that Greater Manchester police recorded an average of 13 antisemitic offences a month from January to September 2023, rising to 85 in October and 68 in November before falling back over the following months. The same force recorded an average of 39 Islamophobic offences a month from January to July 2024 before a sharp jump to 85 in August, with numbers dropping again in September. Similarly, antisemitic offences recorded by West Yorkshire police averaged six a month in earlier 2023, rising to 44 in October before falling again. Islamophobic offences averaged 39 a month in 2024 before rising to 94 in August and then dropping to 73 in September. The Metropolitan police changed the way it records hate crime at the end of February 2024, but under the previous method an average of 54 antisemitic offences a month were logged in 2023, jumping sharply to 517 in October, 411 in November and 228 in December, while under the new method an average of 116 Islamophobic offences were recorded in 2024, rising to 190 in August. Methods for capturing hate crime are not consistent across police forces, so the data cannot be used to compare directly the number of offences between different areas, or provide an overall total for the whole country. However, most forces recorded clear year-on-year increases in the total number of these crimes. Dave Rich, a spokesperson for the Jewish charity the Community Security Trust (CST), said the figures were consistent with the organisation’s own data. “The increases are even more shocking when set against the relatively small size of the Jewish communities in some of these places,” he said. “This kind of anti-Jewish hatred should be unacceptable to all, and we will continue to work closely with police and the CPS up and down the country, alongside local Jewish communities, to reduce the impact of this hatred.” Iman Atta, the director of Tell Mama, which monitors anti-Muslim hate, said the organisation was not surprised by the findings. She said: “Anti-Muslim hate or Islamophobia spikes repeatedly when there are international issues and when there is far-right agitation, extremism, continued finger-pointing at a political level against Muslims. Yet we are not seeing the action needed to tackle this problem. In fact, we are seeing anti-Muslim hate or Islamophobia being treated as though it is not the significant problem it is.” Diana Johnson, the Home Office minister for policing, fire and crime prevention, said the statistics were “deeply troubling”. She said: “We are determined to stamp out the toxic vitriol which is spread by a minority of people, and perpetrators of hate crime should be in no doubt that they will face the full force of the law.”
The Latest: Former President Jimmy Carter is Dead at age 100
Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States, and his wife Rosalynn shared an extraordinary love story that spanned nearly eight decades. Their journey together began in the small town of Plains, Georgia, where their lives intertwined long before romance blossomed. Their enduring partnership, which weathered personal challenges, political triumphs, and a lifetime of public service, stands as a testament to their unwavering devotion. The couple's story started when Jimmy and Rosalynn were children. Rosalynn Smith was born in 1927, two years after Jimmy. Their families were neighbours, and Rosalynn became close friends with Jimmy's sister, Ruth. Remarkably, Jimmy's mother, Lillian, assisted in Rosalynn's birth, further cementing the connection between the two families. It wasn't until 1945, during Jimmy's summer leave from the U.S. Naval Academy, that romance sparked between them. A 20-year-old Jimmy invited 17-year-old Rosalynn on a date to the movies, where he stole a kiss. The very next morning, he confidently told his mother: 'She's the one I'm going to marry.' Despite initially rejecting his first proposal to honour a promise to her father to finish college, Rosalynn eventually accepted Jimmy's proposal, and they married on 7 July 1946. Their wedding, held in their hometown, marked the beginning of what would become the longest marriage in U.S. presidential history. The Carters quickly settled into life as a military family, moving between assignments in Virginia, California, Hawaii, and Connecticut. Rosalynn's resilience and adaptability became evident early in their marriage, traits that would later define her role as a political partner. In 1953, following the death of Jimmy's father, the Carters returned to Plains to take over the family peanut farm. Although Rosalynn initially resented uprooting their lives, she soon found herself playing a vital role in the farm's operations. This collaboration laid the foundation for their enduring partnership, which extended to Jimmy's burgeoning political career. Jimmy's rise in politics saw him serve as a Georgia State Senator, Governor, and ultimately President of the United States. Rosalynn was instrumental in these successes, tirelessly campaigning for her husband and advocating for mental health awareness and women's rights. Following Jimmy's presidency, the couple dedicated their lives to humanitarian efforts. They co-founded The Carter Center, an organisation focused on global human rights and disease eradication. Their work with Habitat for Humanity saw them build and renovate over 4,300 affordable homes worldwide, cementing their reputation as champions of public service. Jimmy credited Rosalynn as his greatest partner, often writing poetry about her and highlighting her critical role in his accomplishments. Their ability to balance individual interests with shared goals strengthened their bond over the decades. In their later years, the Carters remained committed to one another despite health challenges. Rosalynn passed away peacefully on 19 November 2023, at the age of 96. Jimmy followed just over a year later, on 29 December 2024, at the age of 100.Popular Aberdeen sandwich shop goes on the marketSuper Micro’s stock is having a historic week — but it’s still 70% off its highs
Eagles try to cast aside perceived Hurts-Brown relationship issues ahead of Steelers showdown PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The guy on the Philly sports talk radio station had something to say, and he started to vent about the perceived strained relationship between star quarterback Jalen Hurts and standout wide receiver A.J. Brown. Dan Gelston, The Associated Press Dec 12, 2024 3:02 PM Dec 12, 2024 3:05 PM Share by Email Share on Facebook Share on X Share on LinkedIn Print Share via Text Message Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (1) scores a touchdown during the first half of an NFL football game against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, Dec. 8, 2024, in Philadelphia. (AP Photo/Matt Slocum) PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The guy on the Philly sports talk radio station had something to say, and he started to vent about the perceived strained relationship between star quarterback Jalen Hurts and standout wide receiver A.J. Brown. Why weren’t these two Pro Bowl Eagles on the same page? Why had their personal and professional relationship changed even with Philadelphia enjoying tremendous success? It was football gossip usually ripe for a hot-take host or fed-up fan to stir up on the air — only in this instance, the temperature check came from inside the locker room. Normally respected team leader Brandon Graham, who is sidelined with a triceps injury, noted in a radio appearance that “ things have changed ” between Hurts and Brown in the wake of a stale passing game in last week’s win over Carolina. An apologetic Graham walked back his comments. Hurts and Brown both insisted their relationship was cool in front of media hordes more appropriate for the Super Bowl. As for the rest of the Eagles, they were ready to squash the so-called controversy. “We are moving on,” offensive lineman and Christmas song crooner Jordan Mailata said. “It is the Pittsburgh Steelers this week. Not the A.J. Brown and Jalen Show. It is the Pittsburgh Steelers. That’s it.” Oh yeah, the Steelers! Lost in the brouhaha ignited in a Philly sports bar is the fact that sitting — and winning — on the western side of Pennsylvania are the Steelers (10-3). Unlike most matchups in series history, this one Sunday at the Linc comes with the tantalizing appeal of a potential Super Bowl preview. The Steelers have won seven of eight, and the Eagles (11-2) have won nine straight and could clinch the NFC East with a win and a Washington loss or tie. It's the first time the teams — among the original eight NFL teams — will play each other when they both have a double-digit win total. Both teams are in strong position for a playoff run — the Eagles led by Saquon Barkley and his pursuit of Eric Dickerson's NFL season rushing record; Russell Wilson and the soft-schedule Steelers atop the AFC North in large part thanks to six wins against teams that currently have losing records. “I do like playing really good people, I think there's growth in it,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. “You've got to get the job done. But man, I think there's significant growth in pitting your collective talents and skills versus big-time opponents and they're certainly that.” Will the drama out of Philly this week affect the Eagles? They certainly don't think so and neither do the oddsmakers — the Eagles are 5 1/2-point favorites, per BetMGM. “What I’ve noticed about this football team is they’re so locked in and determined to get better each day,” Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said. “We don’t really want anyone else talking to us about anything other than the Pittsburgh Steelers.” Good luck with that, Coach. Maybe playing the Steelers on Sunday at home can snap the Eagles out of their offensive malaise. Hurts threw three TD passes to Brown in a 35-13 win in 2022. Barkley watch Barkley leads the NFL in rushing with 1,623 yards, 216 yards ahead of Baltimore’s Derrick Henry. He is averaging 124.8 yards per game. At that pace, and with one more game to play than Dickerson had, he would become the top single-season rusher in NFL history. He needs 483 yards over the final four games to top Dickerson’s 40-year-old record. Barkley is on pace for 2,122 yards, which would put him just 17 yards beyond Dickerson’s 2,105 in 1984. Barkley doesn’t need much of a reminder from his 2020 performance when, while playing for the New York Giants, he ran into a Pittsburgh defense that seemed reminiscent of its famed Steel Curtain. The Steelers held Barkley to 6 yards on 15 carries. Bye, George The Steelers will have to find a way forward against the NFL’s toughest defense without wide receiver George Pickens, who will miss his second straight game with a hamstring injury. Pittsburgh survived last week against Cleveland, with Mike Williams and Scotty Miller — afterthoughts of late — coming off the bench to make an impact. While Tomlin believes “the strength of the pack is the pack,” the reality is the Steelers don’t have anyone who can stretch the field like Pickens, who leads the team in receptions (55) and yards (850) by a wide margin. It’s a challenge, but considering the way Wilson has spread the ball around — eight players caught passes against the Browns — he won’t lack for options. “Everybody in the receiver room has a different skill set, different strengths,” Calvin Austin III said. “The coaching staff knows that and they know how to put us in position to be able to show that.” Playoff preview The cross-state trip to Philadelphia, where the Steelers haven’t won in nearly 60 years, is the start of an 11-day stretch in which Pittsburgh faces three teams likely bound for the playoffs. While Tomlin is leaning into the “nameless, gray faces” mantra he uses for every opponent, his players know facing the Eagles, Ravens and Chiefs in such a short period is a litmus test for what’s to come in January. “That’s why I’m in the league, period,” linebacker Patrick Queen said. “When you sign up to play football, you want to play at the highest level. ... I love to play the game the right way. I think these next few games is going to show that and it starts with the Eagles.” ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl Dan Gelston, The Associated Press See a typo/mistake? Have a story/tip?
