Trump’s Hush Money Trial: What To Expect

Jury selection will begin on Monday in the first of former President Donald Trump’s four pending criminal cases, kicking off the search for a panel of New Yorkers to decide whether the way Trump handled a hush money payment to cover up an alleged affair constituted a felony. It will be an extraordinary moment in U.S. history, the first time any former president has faced criminal trial and possible jail time. It will also, in all likelihood, be a circus. Unlike his recent civil trials, Trump is required to be in the courtroom while New York prosecutors lay out their case. That means he will have to sit and listen to expected witness testimony from Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal attorney, and Stormy Daniels, a porn star who claims she had an affair with Trump during his time on “Th...

Japanese Investors Return to Overseas Real Estate With Lessons Learned From the 1990s

TOKYO—Big Japanese investors stumbled disastrously into the U.S. commercial real-estate market in the late 1980s, when they bought high-profile properties like New York’s Rockefeller Center not long before the market fell hard.Now some Japanese institutional investors and real-estate companies are back—but this time it isn’t about flaunting trophy purchases. It is about diversifying portfolios for the long term and getting good bargains while the market is slumping.Copyright ©2024 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

The Welfare-Industrial Complex Is Booming

Dec. 31, 2023 11:23 am ETDrill into the nation’s 3.7% unemployment rate, and you’ll find a growing welfare-industrial complex beneath the seemingly strong labor market. Government, social assistance and healthcare account for 56% of the 2.8 million net new jobs over the past year, and for nearly all gains in blue states such as New York and Illinois.The tens of thousands of migrants pouring into big cities need to be tended to. So do the hundreds of thousands of drug-addled and mentally ill homeless living on the streets. Progressive government doesn’t do anything on the cheap. America’s welfare state has thus become a proverbial Big Dig, and it keeps getting bigger.Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Rejects Ban on Noncompete Agreements

Updated Dec. 23, 2023 10:34 am ETALBANY, N.Y.—New York Gov. Kathy Hochul vetoed legislation that would have banned noncompete agreements for employees, after business groups warned such a measure would push jobs out of state.Hochul, a Democrat, said Friday that she supported eliminating noncompete agreements for low and middle-income workers. She had floated a compromise with Democratic lawmakers in Albany in which noncompete clauses would remain for higher-paid employees but a flurry of negotiations, including through Friday, ended without a deal.Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
