Special counsel Jack Smith resigned from the Justice Department on Friday after submitting a final report on President-elect Donald Trump to Attorney Gen. Merrick Garland. The two-volume report examines Smith's allegations that Trump sought to undermine the 2020 election results and held back classified documents after he left the White House, despite neither case ever going to trial. The Trump camp is seeking to block the Justice Department from making the report public in the final days of Joe Biden's presidency. | Trump's Nominees Set for Hearings This Week Senate confirmation hearings kick off this week for many of President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet picks.

Hegseth will face scrutiny over allegations about his personal life but continues to have Trump's support.

James Howells, 39, offered to fund the excavation and share 25% of the proceeds with Newport City Council; however, the court ruled against him, citing environmental risks and the council's ownership of landfill contents. Howells says his ex-girlfriend mistakenly discarded the hard drive in 2013. It's now buried under 10,000 to 15,000 tons of waste, part of a landfill containing 350,000 tons overall. Howells expressed frustration, saying the decision denied him a chance to present his case and left him with "nothing." | |  | | ➤ Vice President-elect J.D.
