MARA Holdings, Inc. Completes $850 Million Offering of Zero-Coupon Convertible Senior Notes due 2031Donald Trump reacted Monday to the news that special counsel Jack Smith asked a federal judge to dismiss his election subversion case against the president-elect. On his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump posted in part: "These cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought. Over $100 Million Dollars of Taxpayer Dollars has been wasted in the Democrat Party's fight against their Political Opponent, ME. Nothing like this has ever happened in our Country before." Trump then went on to call out Fulton County (Georgia) District Attorney Fani Willis , New York Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for their cases against him. Concluding, Trump said, "It was a political hijacking, and a low point in the History of our Country that such a thing could have happened, and yet, I persevered, against all odds, and WON. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" On Monday, Smith moved for dismissal of the indictment against Trump without prejudice in a six-page filing with U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan , who then dismissed the case. Legal analysts pointed out the wording "without prejudice" means that in the future the case could be retried. In a post on X (formerly Twitter ), former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade wrote: "As expected, Jack Smith has filed a motion to dismiss Trump Jan 6 case on grounds that a sitting POTUS cannot be under indictment. But without prejudice, meaning the case can be brought again. Of courses there may be no appetite in 2029, but this preserves that option." Trump's White House communications director, Steven Cheung, also reacted to the news on Monday. "Today's decision by the DOJ [Department of Justice] ends the unconstitutional federal cases against President Trump, and is a major victory for the rule of law," he wrote in a statement sent to Newsweek by Trump's transition team. Trump was indicted in 2023 on charges involving interference with the results of the 2020 presidential election, leading up to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Vice President-elect JD Vance reacted to the news on X saying, "If Donald J. Trump had lost an election, he may very well have spent the rest of his life in prison. These prosecutions were always political. Now it's time to ensure what happened to President Trump never happens in this country again." Update: 11/25/24, 5:31 p.m. ET: This article was updated to include JD Vance's X post and additional background.

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Tulsa fired football coach Kevin Wilson on Sunday and will elevate wide receivers coach Ryan Switzer on an interim basis for the remainder of the season. The Golden Hurricane lost to South Florida 63-30 on Saturday, dropping their record to 3-8. The school's decision concludes Wilson's two-year tenure with a 7-16 record, including 3-12 in American Athletic Conference play. “With the rapidly evolving landscape of college athletics, we know the importance of positioning our football program and athletic department to thrive and excel in the upcoming years,” athletic director Justin Moore said in a statement. “Our standard will be to play in bowl games every season, compete for conference titles, and build a program that everyone connected to the Golden Hurricane will be proud of." Wilson spent six years as Indiana’s head coach, going 26-47 from 2011 to 2016. He then joined Urban Meyer’s staff at Ohio State and stayed on under Meyer’s successor, Ryan Day, before taking over at Tulsa. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

AP college football: and The Associated PressMIDTOWN, Manhattan -- A suspect is on the loose in what police called the "brazen" targeted attack of Brian Thompson , the CEO of major insurance group UnitedHealthcare who was fatally shot outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel ahead of an investor conference on Wednesday. The masked gunman appeared to be lying in wait outside the Hilton hotel in what police said was a "premeditated" attack. The shooter arrived at the scene about five minutes before Thompson before shooting the victim in the chest around 6:40 a.m., police said. Video captured the moment the gunman walked up behind the CEO, pointed his gun at him and fired. A witness fled as Thompson stumbled and fell to the ground. The gunman then walked closer to Thompson, firing more times before fleeing. The suspect fled on foot into an alley, where a phone was recovered, according to NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny. He then fled on a bike and he was last seen riding into Central Park at 6:48 a.m., police said. Police released photos of the suspect holding a firearm and on a bike. They also released photos of the suspect in a mask in an undisclosed location. He was described by police as wearing a light brown or cream-colored jacket, a black face mask, black and white sneakers and a "very distinctive" gray backpack. Detectives have retrieved a water bottle and candy wrapper from the area where he was apparently waiting and are currently running tests and analyses to determine if there are any usable fingerprints or DNA, law enforcement sources said. At the same time, NYPD detectives are working with the U.S. Marshals Service to try and track down the shooter and with the FBI, which has the most sophisticated technology for retrieving usable data from cell phones, sources said. The victim's hotel room has already been accessed by investigators, whose top priority is determining Thompson's most recent conversations and movements, sources said. The working theory among detectives right now is that the shooting was carried out by someone who is not a professional killer because too many "mistakes" were made, sources said. Hitmen typically don't carry cell phones to their hits and the shots were fired from a distance that would be considered "too far" away from the victim, the sources said. At this point, detectives are trying to determine whether Thompson was targeted because of some type of personal conflict or as a result of his work as an insurance executive, sources said. The killer apparently had some knowledge of Thompson's schedule on Wednesday and the fact that he would be arriving at the Hilton well before the company meeting was to begin, the sources said. Police are interviewing Thompson's colleagues and family about any potential specific threats, Kenny said. Thompson , 50, was in New York City for the UnitedHealthcare investors conference, which was scheduled to start at 8 a.m. The conference was being held at the Hilton outside of which he was shot, but he was not staying there, police said. UnitedHealthcare's parent company, UnitedHealth Group, the largest health insurer in the world, said in a statement, "We are deeply saddened and shocked at the passing of our dear friend and colleague Brian Thompson." "Brian was a highly respected colleague and friend to all who worked with him," the company said. "We are working closely with the New York Police Department and ask for your patience and understanding during this difficult time. Our hearts go out to Brian's family and all who were close to him." Police urge the public to call Crime Stoppers with any information. A $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible.

Allen used his athleticism, creativity and a statistical quirk to become the first quarterback ever credited with a passing, rushing and receiving touchdown in the same game in Buffalo’s win over San Francisco. Winston showed off his propensity for big plays — and big blunders — when he became the first player ever to throw for at least 400 yards, four touchdowns and two pick-6s in the same game in a loss for Cleveland at Denver. It was a weekend of firsts for the two quarterbacks. [...]

Morgan Rogers’ fourth goal of the season, an Ollie Watkins penalty and Matty Cash’s finish put Villa 3-0 up after 34 minutes. Mikkel Damsgaard pulled one back for Brentford in the second half but the damage had been done as Villa ended their eight-match winless run in all competitions. Emery was relieved to end the unwanted streak but quickly turned his attention to the next fixture against Southampton on Saturday. “We broke a spell of bad results we were having,” the Villa boss said. “We started the first five or 10 minutes not in control of the game but then progressively we controlled. “Today we achieved those three points and it has given us confidence again but even like that it’s not enough. We have to keep going and think about the next match against Southampton on Saturday. “The message was try to focus on each match, try to forget the table. How we can recover confidence and feel comfortable at home. Today was a fantastic match.” Tyrone Mings returned to the starting line-up in the Premier League for the first time since August 2023. Emery admitted it has been a long road back for the 31-year-old and is pleased to have him back. He added: “Mings played in the Champions league but it’s the first time in the league for a year and three months. “I think he played fantastic – he might be tired tomorrow but will be ready for Saturday again. “It was very, very long, the injury he had. His comeback is fantastic for him and everybody, for the doctor and physio and now he’s training everyday.” Brentford fell to a sixth away defeat from seven games and have picked up only a solitary point on the road this season. They have the best home record in the league, with 19 points from seven matches, but they have the joint worst away record. Bees boss Thomas Frank is confident form will improve on the road. He said: “On numbers we can’t argue we are better at home than away, but on numbers it’s a coincidence. I think two of the seven away games have been bad. “The other games we performed well in big spells. I’m confident at the end of the season we will have some wins away from home.” Frank felt Villa should not have been given a penalty when Ethan Pinnock brought Watkins down. He added: “I want to argue the penalty. I don’t think it is (one). I think Ollie kicked back and hit Ethan, yes there is an arm on the shoulder but threshold and all that – but that’s not the reason we lost.”

Swiss National Bank Reduces Position in Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ:MAT)NoneAdani Group is facing fallouts on several fronts as investors and partners rethink ties with the Indian conglomerate in the wake of bribery and fraud accusations by U.S. authorities. Projects and investments tied to the Indian conglomerates' businesses spanning across the world have come under the spotlight, following the indictment of its billionaire founder on bribery and fraud charges. Adani Group is facing fallouts on several fronts as investors and partners rethink ties with the Indian conglomerate in the wake of bribery and fraud accusations by U.S. authorities. 24/7 San Diego news stream: Watch NBC 7 free wherever you are Projects and investments tied to the Indian conglomerates' businesses spanning across the world have come under the spotlight, following the U.S. indictment of its billionaire founder on bribery and fraud charges last Thursday. "The US indictment is likely to constrain the group's access to new financing in the near term, particularly in the offshore capital markets, Leonard Law, a senior credit analyst at Lucro Analytics told CNBC. The group has denied any wrongdoing . The allegations are "more serious" than those from short-seller Hindenburg Research's report in 2023, and the legal proceedings are likely to be protracted , he added. Fitch Ratings has put several dollar bonds issued by Adani Group companies on its negative ratings watchlist, which means the bonds could potentially be downgraded. The action reflects higher corporate governance risk and "potential contagion risk" that could affect access to funding and liquidity. Money Report Walmart pulls back on DEI efforts, removes some LBGTQ merchandise from website Gold plunges 3% as Trump Treasury pick and potential Israel-Hezbollah truce fuel risk-on mood Following the bombshell indictment last week, which triggered a selloff in the conglomerate's stocks, Kenyan president William Ruto scrapped airport and electricity deals worth about $2.5 billion with the group, Reuters reported. French energy giant TotalEnergies, on Monday suspended new investments linked to Adani Group and claimed it was not informed of the investigation into the alleged corruption scheme. "Until such time when the accusations against the Adani group individuals and their consequences have been clarified, TotalEnergies will not make any new financial contribution as part of its investments in the Adani group of companies," the French company said. Shares of the French oil major, which owns a 19.75% stake in Adani Green Energy and a 50% holding in joint ventures with Adani Green, fell 2.4% on Monday. The U.S. International Development Finance Corp has said it would review its prior agreements to lend $553 million t o a Sri Lankan port development that's backed by the Adani Group. "DFC is aware of the recent allegations related to Adani and is actively assessing the ramifications in light of the recent DOJ announcement," an official with the development agency said in a statement. The New York Federal Prosecutors last week indicted Adani and seven other people on charges of paying about $265 million in bribes to Indian government officials to secure solar energy contracts that could yield more than $2 billion of profits over 20 years. The charges also included misleading U.S. and international investors about the its compliance with antibribery and anticorruption practices, while raising more than $3 billion in capital to fund these energy contracts. In an escalation of its stateside legal battle, Gautam Adani, chairman of Adani Group, and his nephew, Sagar Adani, were reportedly summoned by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over their involvement in the alleged bribery. The Adani group representatives did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comments on Tuesday. The company had earlier said the U.S. authorities' accusations were " baseless " and that it will seek "all possible legal recourse." Meanwhile, India's opposition leader Rahul Gandhi has already called for Adani's arrest , according to domestic media . Indian securities watchdog is reportedly probing whether the Adani group failed to disclose information regarding the U.S. DOJ's investigation into its bribery charges. Proceedings in the country's parliament were suspended on Monday after disruptions from lawmakers who demanded a discussion on the Adani's corruption allegations. A fresh petition has also been filed in the Indian Supreme Court seeking a probe into the bribery charges by the Indian authorities , according to local media. Adani Group had spent the bulk of last year attempting to move past a scathing report by the short-seller Hindenburg Research that accused it of financial misconduct and stock manipulation. Shares of the Indian group's flagship firm Adani Enterprises has declined over 20% as of Tuesday since the notice of indictment, while the company in the eye of the storm Adani Green Energy has lost more than 35%. Adani Power has shed around 15% while Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone shares price dropped 11% since then.
