By ERIC TUCKER, JILL COLVIN, ALANNA DURKIN RICHER and LINDSAY WHITEHURST (Associated Press) MIAMI (AP) — Donald Trump improperly stored in his Florida estate sensitive documents on nuclear capabilities, repeatedly enlisted aides and lawyers to help him hide records demanded by investigators and cavalierly showed off a Pentagon “plan of attack” and classified map, according to a sweeping felony indictment that paints a damning portrait of the former president’s treatment of national security information. The conduct alleged in the historic indictment — the first federal case against a former...

Trump charged over classified documents in 1st federal indictment of an ex-president

By ERIC TUCKER, JILL COLVIN and MICHAEL BALSAMO (Associated Press) MIAMI (AP) — Donald Trump said Thursday that he was indicted for mishandling classified documents at his Florida estate, a remarkable development that makes him the first former president in U.S. history to face criminal charges by the federal government that he once oversaw. The indictment carries unmistakably grave legal consequences, including the possibility of prison if he’s convicted. But it also has enormous political implications, potentially upending a Republican presidential primary that Trump had been dominating and...

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on June 9, 2023. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, National News, News, Uncategorized.

By JENNIFER PELTZ and ROB GILLIES (Associated Press) NEW YORK (AP) — Images of smoke obscuring the New York skyline and the Washington Monument this week have given the world a new picture of the perils of wildfire, far from where blazes regularly turn skies into hazardous haze. A third day of unhealthy air from Canadian wildfires may have been an unnerving novelty for millions of people on the U.S. East Coast, but it was a reminder of conditions routinely troubling the country’s West — and a wake-up call about the future, scientists say. “This is kind of an astounding event” but likely to become...

Jokic, Murray, Nuggets kick sand in Heat’s faces, with 109-94 victory giving Denver 2-1 NBA Finals lead

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on June 8, 2023. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, NBA Finals, Sports.

MIAMI — Homecourt advantage proved fleeting for the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals. What was gained with Sunday’s victory at Ball Arena was relinquished Wednesday night at the Kaseya Center, with a 109-94 loss to the Denver Nuggets in the Game 3 of the best-of-seven series. That puts the Nuggets up 2-1 going into Friday’s Game 4 back on the Heat’s court, with each team with up to two remaining home games. Essentially accused by coach Michael Malone of cowering in Game 2, the Nuggets basically arrived to South Florida and kicked sand on the Heat’s faces, closing with a 58-33 rebounding advantage.

MIAMI – Observations and other notes of interest from Wednesday night’s 109-94 NBA Finals loss to the Denver Nuggets: – The problem is the same as it seemingly has been during the Bam Adebayo era: – When it comes to Heat defensive length in the power rotation, it’s Bam or bust. – And with a high-IQ opponent such as Nikola Jokic, it means getting past Adebayo is a free pass to the rim. – As it often was Wednesday night. – Because for all the bulk that Kevin Love adds to the mix, he is ground bound. – And for all the athleticism Caleb Martin can provide, he is 6-5. – It was a factor in Game 1. –...
