Starbucks cancels North Philly community store
Starbucks has pulled the plug on plans to open a selective community store in North Philadelphia. Why it matters: It's the second time the Seattle-based coffee giant has bailed on promises to open the neighborhood-focused store in an underserved neighborhood in the city. State of play: Starbucks blamed construction costs for not moving forward with the delayed community store in North Philly, which was originally supposed to open last year, per a company spokesperson. Starbucks' community stores are designed to reflect the culture and character of the neighborhood they're based in, and each has a space for community events and programming. The company also commits to hiring diverse construction contractors for such stores. Context: Starbucks has backed off its 2022 pledge to open 1,000 community stores globally by the end of the decade. And last year, the company shut down a community store in Trenton, New Jersey. Starbucks was also slated to open a community store in West Philly's ParkWest Town Center shopping plaza by 2021, but that plan was scrapped during the pandemic. Meanwhile, Starbucks is expected to open three new stores in Philly proper by the end of the summer. That includes the long-proposed Fishtown location at 1405 Frankford Ave. — located mere steps away from Philly-born La Colombe Coffee Roasters ' flagship store.

Intel CEO fires back at Trump's demand to resign
Intel's top executive fired back at President Donald Trump, who demanded his resignation over reported conflicts of interest earlier this week. Chief Executive Officer Lip-Bu Tan bemoaned 'misinformation' being spread about his track record and said he was committed to the company after Trump called for him to step down due to his reported ties to Chinese firms. Back in April, Reuters exclusively reported that Tan had invested at least $200 million in hundreds of Chinese advanced manufacturing and chip firms, some allegedly linked to China's military. The CEO's public letter came the same day that Trump criticized those reported investments in a post on his platform, Truth Social. The president called for Tan to "resign, immediately," adding that there was "no other solution to this problem." "I know there has been a lot in the news today, and I want to take a moment to address it directly with you," Tan's letter begins. 'I want to be absolutely clear: Over 40+ years in the industry, I've built relationships around the world and across our diverse ecosystem – and I have always operated within the highest legal and ethical standards,' Tan wrote in a Thursday, Aug. 7 letter addressed to Intel employees. Senator questioned Intel CEO's ties to Chinese firms The backlash and response came after Republican Sen. Tom Cotton sent a letter to Intel questioning Tan's ties to Chinese firms and a recent criminal case involving his former firm, Cadence Design Systems. The Arkansas lawmaker, U.S. Army veteran and attorney cited Reuters' past reporting regarding Tan's investments, some of which were made through a venture firm or holding companies. Cotton previously asked the chair of the Fortune 500 company's board to respond to questions about Tan's ties to China, including investments in the country's semiconductor companies and others with connections to its military. 'There has been a lot of misinformation circulating about my past roles at Walden International and Cadence Design Systems,' Tan wrote in the Aug. 7 letter. "My reputation has been built on trust – on doing what I say I'll do, and doing it the right way. This is the same way I am leading Intel." "We are engaging with the Administration to address the matters that have been raised and ensure they have the facts," the letter continues. "I fully share the president's commitment to advancing U.S. national and economic security, I appreciate his leadership to advance these priorities, and I'm proud to lead a company that is so central to these goals." The newly appointed CEO went on to tell employees Intel is making progress and backed by its board, whose members are "fully supportive of the work we are doing to transform our company, innovate for our customers, and execute with discipline." President Trump orders federal law enforcement officers to patrol Washington, D.C. streets Intel announced layoffs in April In a continuation of Intel's struggles in recent years, the California-based company in April announced plans to lay off thousands of employees as part of a company-wide cost-cutting push orchestrated by Tan. At the time, USA TODAY reported, the CEO alluded job reductions that could "span several months.' Contributing: Kathryn Palmer and Russ Wiles with The Arizona Republic, part of the USA TODAY Network.

Massachusetts sheriff arrested on charges of pressuring cannabis company to over stock purchase
BOSTON (AP) — A sheriff in one of Massachusetts' largest counties was charged Friday with allegedly pressuring a Boston-based cannabis firm to sell him stock in the company. Sheriff Steven Tompkins, 67, who oversees about 1,000 employees in the Suffolk County Sheriff's Department, is facing two counts of extortion. He was taken into custody in Florida and had his first appearance there. He will appear in Boston federal court later. 'Elected officials, particularly those in law enforcement, are expected to be ethical, honest and law abiding — not self-serving,' U.S. Attorney Leah Foley said in a statement. "His alleged actions are an affront to the voters and taxpayers who elected him to his position, and the many dedicated and honest public servants at the Suffolk County Sheriff's Department. The people of Suffolk County deserve better.' No one from the sheriff's department could be reached for comment and an attorney for Tompkins did not respond to a request for comment. According to the court documents, Tompkins first pressured the unnamed company for stock as it was considering launching an initial public offering in 2020. The company, according to the documents, feared Tomkins could undermine the company's partnership with a sheriff department program that referred released inmates to work there. It feared that could put the company's operating license risk as well as the timing of its initial public offering. In November, 2020, Tompkins allegedly wired $50,000 from his retirement account to an account controlled by the company to purchase the stock. After the initial public offering, the stock value increased significantly. But when it began to fall a year later, Tompkins alleged demanded his money back and, despite, the decline in the stock's value, the company gave him a full refund. Among the evidence in the court document was five checks written to Tompkins, with a note they were for a loan repayment. Tompkins has run afoul of the law before. In 2023, Tompkins paid a fine of $12,300 for violating conflict of interest laws after he created a position in his department for his niece and for asking his subordinates to run personal errands for him. If found guilty on the extortion charges, Tompkins could face a sentence of up to 20 years in prison on each count, three years of supervised release and a fine of $250,000.
