Solanum I think for the first one.
Solidago for the second.

Maybe Solanum carolinense. I get them here quite a bit in Western NY. I don't see any thorns on this one which would be unusual for Solanum carolinense but we could not see the underside of the leaves - one of its thorniest locations.

This is a common weed in one of my vegetable beds and I find quite a variety in their thorniness. Also the thorniness varies with age too. Young plants seem less thorny than the veterans coming back from roots I haven't managed to pull completely out.

Compare and see what you think.
