Fifty one degrees in Boston. It's eleven o'clock. Good morning,
Happy Friday. I'm Nicole Davis. Here is what's happening. We
have a mixed bag for the weather this holiday weekend.
Tomorrow looks pretty good, but then we have a nor'easter
on the way on Sundays, scooting up from the southeast.
Rain shows up around Sunday afternoon. Monday all but a
(00:31):
wash out at this point. We're gonna watch it all
weekend for you. We'll get a closer look at the
forecast coming up in just about three minutes. New York
Attorney General Letitia James is now fighting back against her
indictment on fraud charges. James claims it is retribution for
winning a fraud case against the Trump organization back in
twenty twenty two.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Will fight these baseless charges aggressively.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
James responded to being charged with one count of bank
fraud and one count of making false statements to a
financial institution related to a home purchase in Virginia.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
President's own public statements make clear that his only goal
is political retribution.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
CBS News Legal contributor Rebecca Royfei notes the indictment comes
after Trump demanded the Justice Department go after foes, including James,
and put a hand picked prosecutor in place.
Speaker 5 (01:15):
It looks like she is now currently doing his bidding.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Acting US Attorney Lindsay Halligan said the charges quote represent
intentional criminal acts. Michael Toscano, CBS News Washington.

A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from deploying
the National Guard in Illinois for two weeks.
Speaker 5 (01:30):

Department of Homeland Securities assessment of recent events in the
Chicago area to be unreliable, so for now, National Guard
units already in the area cannot operate on the mission
they were assigned. Democratic Governor J. B. Pritsker says he'll
keep fighting the Trump administration. President Trump says.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Crime members in Chicago they're through the roof, and I
have a governors stands up every day and tells us
how wonderful Chicago is.

who were furloughed. Details from CBS's Michael Wallace.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
A Bureau of Labor Statistics is recalling some people so
it can publish the Consumer Price Index for September. The
government needs that key inflation report to calculate the annual
cost of living adjustments to Social Security payments, which have
to be announced by November first. CBS News Business analyst
Jill Slessinger says the Federal Reserve needs the CPI as
it considers another interest rate cut.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Without those data points, the Fed is flying blind.

Michael Wallace, CBS News.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
For the rest of the afternoon, We're looking good out there.
It's warming up after a pretty chilly start to the day.
We will be getting up into the upper fifties. Mostly
sunny skies out there. Cool breeze could make it feel
a little bit colder then for tonight, mostly clear early.
We have a little bit of a cloud cover situation overnight,
but nothing too crazy to worry about alone. Near fifty
(02:58):
in Boston, Oh forties if you're inland. Then tomorrow the
pick of the weekend for sure, mix of sun and
clouds in a high in the mid sixties. Sunday, we
start off dry, but then increasingly throughout the day you're
gonna notice rain moving in from the south to the north,
and we've got a nor'easter bringing all this in. We've
got heavy rain on Sunday night, lots of gusty wind
(03:21):
out there as well, could have some coastal flooding, beach
erosion as well, some wind damage possible. On Monday, we
have a high year sixty, and then on Tuesday things
will start to get better, but we will have lingering
rain and drizzle, lots of breezy weather out there as
well too, and we've got a high still close to
sixty temperatures right now, we've got fifty two in Beverly
(03:43):
right now, forty six in Bedford south of Boston, forty
nine in Taunton. In Boston right now at eleven oh five,
it is partly cloudy and we're at fifty one degrees.

sides have agreed to the first phase of the President's
peace plan, with Israel's government ratifying it overnight. Here's ABC's

Speaker 6 (04:12):
Hamas set to release the twenty living hostages early next
week and the remains of twenty eight others who perished
in return, Israel releasing more than one thousand Palestinian prisoners
and pulling back its troops in Gaza to an agreed uponline.
The big question, then, what the President's twenty point plan
had called for Hamas to disarm and for Gaza to
(04:33):
be governed by an a political Palestinian committee overseen by
an international Board of Peace, with Trump as its chairman.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanking President Trump and a
national address this morning praising his efforts to develop the
plan for the return of the hostages. There are seventy
two hours for the hostages to be returned by Hamas
and for Israel to release about two thousand Palestinian protesters. Meantime,
in Boston, new charges have been filed to against protesters
(05:00):
arrested earlier this week during that pro Palestinian rally right
by the Common. Suffolk County DA's office reports thirteen protesters
in all have now been charged with anarchy. The office
says this is connected to the quote violent imagery and
rhetoric used to promote that rally. This is a felony
in Massachusetts and could lead to three years in prison.
(05:21):
And if you want an alternative to the halftime show
at next year's Super Bowl, well you'll get one.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
Turning Point USA, the organization founded by the late Charlie Kirk,
says it will host its own halftime show for anyone
offended by the NFL selection of Bad Bunny to entertain
