The New York Giants granted quarterback Daniel Jones' request for release on Friday, letting their former franchise quarterback go after six seasons. Jones signed a massive $160 million contract two seasons ago, but the situation eventually reached a point where both sides felt it was best to part ways. Jones was respectful to the team in a statement on Thursday following his experience playing on the scout team at practice, and the team returned that respect on Friday when it announced his release. ESPN personality Elle Duncan referenced Jones' speech to the organization in her "Taking the Elle" segment on Thursday's edition of SportsCenter, and the team wasn't happy about how she did it. ESPN's Elle Duncan on Daniel Jones' farewell to Giants fans: "You guys think he had this saved in his notes since like 2020? In all seriousness, DJ, I could have saved you like 90 seconds. A rewrite: I'm sorry you paid me $108 million for one playoff win. And I look forward to... pic.twitter.com/CF8Ix8M9M9 “We normally reserve ‘Taking the Elle’ for Fridays but Giants quarterback Daniel Jones just did something so inexplicable that we made an exception," Duncan said, mocking jones with her tone and inflection. “After being benched this week, Jones took to the podium to say goodbye to the franchise and fans, but with, like, seven games left in the season.” Pat Hanlon, the Giants' vice president of communications, voiced his displeasure with how Duncan handled the matter on the show. "That an ESPN personality would mock Daniel Jones’ statement today is mind boggling," Hanlon said. "Given what has happened at that company over past few years, tone deaf," he said, referencing the multiple rounds of layoffs that have taken place at the company. Al Bello/Getty Images Duncan doubled down on her statement, arguing that the Giants treated Jones with far less respect by benching him and adding him to the scout team. "You want to call me disrespectful to Daniel Jones? Am I more disrespectful than the Giants making him a scout team safety?," she asked on social media. Am I more disrespectful than all of those same fans that are in my mentions right now who booed him mercilessly for the last six seasons? I stand by everything that I said." “There have been some great times, but, of course, we all wish there had been more of those,” Jones said on Thursday, addressing the media in what turned out to be his final day as a Giant. “I take full responsibility for my part in not bringing more wins. No one wanted to win those games worse than me. I gave everything I had.” Once Jones clears waivers, he'll be free to sign with any team around the league. We've seen former backups revitalize their careers on new teams after failing in their first destinations, like Baker Mayfield, Geno Smith and Sam Darnold. Time will tell if Jones will add his name to that list, but it's clear that some individuals in the Giants organization will still root for him after he leaves.

The community groups were supposed to clear out by 5 p.m. Friday, but there were no moving trucks in sight. Rémy Robitaille, director of Solidarité Ahuntsic, which represents the 13 groups in the building, said they haven’t budged because they simply don’t have anywhere else to go. Robitaille said the organizations provide vital services for immigrants, refugees and seniors, as well as food bank services and French language classes for newcomers — a total of 25,000 people each year. It will take an emergency eviction order from a judge to expel the 13 groups, which he said they would contest in court. “Who will give those services?” he said Friday. “We expect a reaction from the government.” The Centre de services scolaire de Montréal, which owns the building, said it has rented out the space to organizations serving the community but now needs the building to provide urgently needed French language courses for newcomers. It added that it needs to relocate French language services offered at William-Hingston Centre in Parc-Extension, another neighbourhood farther east, because of renovations to that building. “In order to fulfil our primary mission of providing schooling, and to avoid a disruption in services in the absence of another real estate solution to accommodate all our students, we must regain full possession of the building,” the CSSDM said in a statement. It also accused Solidarité Ahuntsic of refusing to sign a lease since 2018. Robitaille responded by saying the CSSDM raised the monthly rent for the whole building from about $8,000 to $24,000 — an increase the community groups have refused to pay. Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough Mayor Émilie Thuillier said she has tried to help them find another location over the past year, with no luck. Thuillier, Ahuntsic-Cartierville MP Mélanie Joly and other elected officials have called on the Quebec government to allow the 13 organizations to stay in the building for five more years. “The services they offer to the residents of the riding are essential to ensuring the social safety net of the sector. In a context of inflation, food insecurity and housing crisis, many citizens resort to the assistance offered by these resources,” Joly said in a press release in May. “What we’re saying to the government is that we want five years more so that the 13 organizations can stay in the building while we are constructing another one,” Thuillier said, explaining that the borough has already identified a new location suitable for a community centre nearby but it will not be ready to house the organizations for a few years. In the meantime, the mayor is asking the provincial government to give the CSSDM more funding so that it can rent spaces elsewhere for its French courses. Thuillier added that French language classes are currently offered in the building but that its state of disrepair means there will be a three-to four-year wait for those courses if the school service centre does take over.

The move of M&M is expected to impact around 8% of total revenue, compared with the previous financial year. The company is, however, determined to add other customers to compensate for the loss of business resulting from the development and remains optimistic about achieving this goal particularly given its recent defence foray, the Hyderabad-based firm said in a filing. Machine tools and auto components and defence divisions are two business segments of the company. As part of the auto components business, it manufactures cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, connecting rods and forgings. The company operates through five manufacturing units in Hyderabad and 1 in Pune. Following the October 30 sanctions list, in which its name figured with a clutch of other entities from India, Lokesh Machines said it was in the process of reaching out to the OFAC, after becoming aware through media reports, to gather more information and provide clarifications, including that it has been exporting machines to Russia since 2011. “Our machines are being sourced by distributors who stock these or further sell. None of our distributors are featured on any sanctions list. The news articles stated we have been sanctioned for supplying Russia with technology and equipment that could be used for military operations. It must be noted that we are not aware of any machines being used or dealt with any sanctioned entities or individuals,” the company had said in a filing. In India, Lokesh Machines is the first private firm to manufacture and supply small arms to elite forces like the Indian Army, NSG, Assam Rifles, and BSF.

It also carries what could be vast implications for the Trump administration's policies on issues including taxes and the regulation of artificial intelligence, not to mention clashing mightily with the notion that Trump's brand of populism is all about helping the working man. Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison. Photo / Getty Images The presence of the Silicon Valley crew during critical moments also reflects something larger. Silicon Valley was once seen as a Democratic stronghold, but the new generation of tech leaders – epitomised by Musk – often has a right-wing ideology and a sense that they have an opportunity now to shift the balance of power in favour of less-fettered entrepreneurship. Brian Hughes, a spokesperson for the presidential transition, said Trump and Musk are "great friends and brilliant leaders". "Elon Musk is a once-in-a-generation business leader, and our federal bureaucracy will certainly benefit from his ideas and efficiency," he said. This article is based on interviews with more than a dozen people with insight into the transition, including people who have participated in the process. Most spoke on condition of anonymity to preserve their relationships with Trump. Innovation and deregulation The tech leaders in Trump's orbit are pushing for deregulation of their industries and more innovative use of private sector technologies in the federal Government, especially the defence industry. About a dozen Musk allies took breaks from their businesses to serve as unofficial advisers to the Trump transition effort. Broadly, the group is pushing for less-onerous regulation of industries such as cryptocurrency and AI, a weaker Federal Trade Commission to allow for more deal-making and the privatisation of some government services to make Government more efficient.

More than 2,800 FBS scholarship players put their names into the portal last season, according to On3 Sports.
