From New York, the greatest city in the world, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! Our road trip takes us today to Macy's in Herald Square, where all Macy's stores and their associates were closing until the end of the month at the end of business today.
Some stories talked about on today's show were:
1. The governors of New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey said Monday they have agreed to close bars, restaurants, movie theaters and casinos starting at 8 p.m. Monday. The governors said essential businesses like supermarkets and gas stations will be able to stay open after 8 p.m. All nonessential businesses must close in New Jersey and Connecticut.
2. A Florida man charged with conspiring with associates of Rudy Giuliani to make illegal campaign contributions claims prosecutors shouldn't get to keep electronic evidence he mailed to lawyers. Prosecutors disagree. Prosecutors filed papers Monday in Manhattan federal court saying they legally obtained a hard-copy notebook and electronic devices belonging to David Correia.
3. Tom Brady is poised to leave the New England Patriots. Brady posted on social media “my football journey will take place elsewhere.” The comments by the 42-year-old quarterback were the first to indicate he would leave the franchise he’s led to six Super Bowl titles, and the only professional football home he has had.
