When the dining room of an Ohio great-grandmother's favorite restaurant closed because of staffing shortages, she grabbed an apron without hesitation.
"I was here opening day and have been a regular," Bonnie August, 81, told CNN, at the Culver's restaurant in Findlay. "I have my favorites as far as custard, I think we all do. And I watch the flavor of the day and list and pick those days to meet with friends."
Danielle Doxsey, owner of the franchised fast-food outlet, said an influx of business and a shortage of staff forced her to close the dining room. "We didn't want to overwhelm the staff," she explained.

White House officials are heaping blame on DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro over her office’s criminal investigation into Fed Chair Jerome Powell, faulting her for blindsiding them with an inquiry that has forced the administration into a dayslong damage control campaign, four people familiar with the matter told CNN.

The aircraft used in the US military’s first strike on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean, a strike which has drawn intense scrutiny and resulted in numerous Congressional briefings, was painted as a civilian aircraft and was part of a closely guarded classified program, sources familiar with the program told CNN. Its use “immediately drew scrutiny and real concerns” from lawmakers, one of the sources familiar said, and legislators began asking questions about the aircraft during briefings in September.

“It is a grind,” the head of the Justice Department’s criminal division said in an email. “While we certainly encourage aggressive overachievers, we need reviewers to hit the 1,000-page mark each day.”

A new classified legal opinion produced by the Justice Department argues that President Donald Trump was not limited by domestic law when approving the US operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro because of his constitutional authority as commander-in-chief and that he is not constrained by international law when it comes to carrying out law enforcement operations overseas, according to sources who have read the memo.
