The NBC Bay Area's Investigative Unit has learned a criminal investigator for the DA’s office, Magen Hayashi, testified Thursday that she was ordered by her own co-workers – attorneys inside the district attorney’s office – to withhold evidence, and said she believed she would have been fired if she refused.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has sacked the head of the state statistics agency, according to a decree published Saturday, after releasing data showing last year's inflation rate hit a 19-year high of 36.1 percent. Sait Erdal Dincer was just the latest in a series of economic dismissals by Erdogan, who has sacked three central bank governors since July 2019. Erdogan has railed against high interest rates, which he believes cause inflation – the exact opposition of conventional economic thinking. The 2021 inflation figure released by Dincer angered both the pro-government and opposition camps. The opposition said it was underreported,...

San Francisco updated its COVID-19 Health Order Thursday to exempt boosted individuals from its indoor mask mandate. Office workers, gym members and individuals in other “stable cohorts” will not be required to wear masks indoors if they are “up to date” on their COVID-19 vaccinations, according to a rule that will be officially adopted Feb. 1.

The supply chain for electric-vehicle batteries is uncomfortably dependent on China—for now, at least Competing with a much better-established Chinese industry isn’t an obvious proposition for investors, even with subsidies thrown in. That leaves U.S. car makers tentatively leading even the upstream supply-chain push, in alliance with the Energy Department. The future of EVs is often assumed to depend on solving consumer problems such as slow charging infrastructure and range anxiety. Instead, they could be slowed down more by the conundrum of building the foundations of a battery industry.

3,000 people live there-middle of nowhere-expensive to maintain. The last war over the place cost the Limeys $500k per person to save. They're keeping it just to prove a point. Think Guantanamo without credible threats to change. Now the Brits have cut down their military where another rescue mission would be impossible. All this based on principle. At this point any 'solution' to this dilemma will not happen without the bigger issue of 'saving face'. There is a way out and it will have to involve the US.

Officers showed up on Fifth Avenue by the thousands to honor Rivera, whose funeral was held at New York City’s historic St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Rivera and Mora were ambushed while walking down a hall...

New Hampshire Senate president Chuck Morse didn't let a powerful winter storm get in the way of his formal U.S. Senate campaign launch. The longtime business owner and Republican state lawmaker declared his candidacy at an outdoor kickoff event in front of his florist, nursery and garden center in southern New Hampshire on Saturday morning, just a major nor'easter was smashing into New England.

Washington, D.C. – D.C. locals are ready for another winter spent in masks telling Fox News they believe extending the indoor mask mandate is a good idea despite potential harms to local business. Days before the indoor mask mandate was set to expire, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser extended the order through February 28. The Mayor noted in her address that despite COVID-19 cases falling in the district, hospitals remain under duress.

Here are some of my thoughts on the billing of electricity with respect to homeowners with solar panel installations. The topic is complex. My suggestions are intended to be possible improvements and not perfections. There are a number of components that could go into the computation of a solar panel homeowner's bill: the capital cost of the related non-solar backup capacity, the cost of the utility lines dedicated to the customer, the cost to collect payment, the fuel cost of the electricity and credit for the electricity supplied to the grid by the customer. A CUSTOMER'S USAGE-BASED SHARE of the...

The misery index is traditionally inflation rate plus U-3 unemployment rate. The RENTER misery index is the Zillow Rent Index YoY + U-3 unemployment rate to demonstrate the hardship of renters because of soaring home prices. Notice that because of rising home prices, the Renter misery index has overwhelmed the improvement in unemployment. As I typically do, I will now include The Fed’s balance sheet (as a proxy for Fed stimulus and supporting Federal government expenditures). Yes, you can see that The Fed and Federal government are responsible for our modern day “Grapes of Wrath.” If we look at the...

Jim Justice (R) what she thought of his governing in the state, saying in a fiery tweet on Friday, “I’d say his dog’s a– would make a better Governor than him!” The Grammy Award-winning singer tweeted a photo of West Virginia's rankings in areas such as health care, the economy and infrastructure, showing the state's overall rank in the country at 47th place. The screenshot of the rankings was apparently sourced from U.S. News & World Report.

The University of Pennsylvania is considering a lawsuit if Lia Thomas is barred from competing in the upcoming NCAA women’s swimming championship, according to a report. A swimmer on the Penn women’s team, speaking on the condition of anonymity, claimed to Fox News that administrators were considering legal action if Thomas is prohibited from participating in the championship. “I have a feeling that if USA Swimming changes their rules, they will be filing a lawsuit for Lia to swim, but they wouldn’t do that for us,” she said. “That’s just really upsetting.” The swimmer said she had “heard that from...

Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Friday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that former President Donald Trump owed his testimony to the House Select Committee investigating the riot at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Raskin said, “Well, first of all, the public record as you’ve just shown it with the tweets, with his statements makes very clear what Donald Trump was up to. The whole name of the game was to put coercive pressure on Pence to ‘do the right thing’ by which Trump meant step outside of his constitutional role and declare unilateral unconstitutional powers to reject the electoral...
