美国对全球刑事法院实施新制裁

此举旨在通过瓦解该法庭，阻止其开展调查，尤其是针对以色列的调查。

作者：马修·李（MATTHEW LEE）和莫莉·奎尔（MOLLY QUELL）

华盛顿 —— 特朗普政府周五对国际刑事法院（ICC）实施了全面的新制裁，将其作为瓦解该法庭行动的一部分，原因是该法庭对美国及其盟友（尤其是以色列）展开调查。

此举引发了包括美国盟友在内的全球谴责。

美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥（Marco Rubio）在周五宣布了这些制裁。此前，诺贝尔和平奖授予了南非法学家纳维·皮莱（Navi Pillay），她曾任国际刑事法院及其他国际法院的法官；由于她对加沙的调查结果，以色列谴责了此次获奖选择。特朗普总统一直渴望获得该奖项。

美国官员坚称，制裁的时机纯属巧合，且制裁措施已筹备数月。

“我们将禁止与这个流氓法院进行交易，切断其资源，使其失去针对我们运作的能力，”鲁比奥在发布于社交媒体的一段视频演说中表示。“美国和美国人民不受这个虚假 ICC 的管辖。”

制裁措施切断了该法院与美国金融服务、技术公司的联系，甚至禁止其使用美元。制裁为与该法院有业务往来的美国公司和个人设定了六个月的期限，用于终止相关业务。

总部位于海牙的国际刑事法院是全球首个永久性战争罪法庭，它谴责这一步骤是对法治和国际秩序基础的攻击。而就在两天前，鲁比奥在雅典卫城前的一次演讲中似乎还认同这些主题。

“这是一次企图阻碍司法进程，并防止法院履行其创建初衷的行为，”该法院在 [见 ] 中表示。

潮位上升与洪水预示“瑞秋”即将抵达

作者：汉娜·弗莱（HANNAH FRY） 和 林荣刚（RONG-GONG LIN II）

周五，从纽波特海滩（Newport Beach）到长滩（Long Beach）的沿海社区受到巨浪引发的严重洪水袭击，与此同时，南加州正准备迎接热带风暴“瑞秋”（Tropical Storm Rachel）的到来，预计该风暴将于周日凌晨在加利福尼亚州与墨西哥边境附近登陆。

“瑞秋”的到来可能带来强风、降雨以及更具破坏性的沿海洪水。根据国家气象局的数据，如果目前的风暴轨迹保持不变，“瑞秋”的影响将主要集中在圣地亚哥县。然而，受该系统影响，奥兰治县和洛杉矶县预计仍将出现大范围降雨和局部沿海洪水。

“尽管热带风暴‘瑞秋’的中心将远在洛杉矶县以南，但最初来自南方、随后与西方涌浪叠加的显著海浪，将导致从现在起直到周二期间出现沿海洪水隐患，并在周日达到顶峰，”国家气象局首席气象学家阿里尔·科恩（Ariel Cohen）表示。

圣地亚哥国家气象局办事处周五对圣地亚哥县的大部分地区（包括圣地亚哥、丘拉维斯塔、卡尔斯巴德和欧申赛德等地区）发布了罕见的热带风暴预警，这意味着在接下来的 48 小时内，该地区某些地方可能会出现热带风暴级别的强风。它 [见 Storm A6]

公司正大肆收购 $4-billion 虐待赔偿金

受困于延迟的受害者正承受损失，用洛杉矶县未来的赔付款项换取预付款

该男子原以为只有他的律师和家人知道他针对洛杉矶县提起诉讼一事，他称自己在青少年时期于少年管教所内遭受了性虐待。

作者：Rebecca Ellis

这起以化名提交的案件，是去年县政府官员在一项历史性的 $4-billion 性虐待赔偿协议中解决的数千起案件之一。他要求在讨论这次虐待时保持匿名，并表示这是他最深藏心底的秘密之一。

因此，今年秋天，当他接到一家佛罗里达州公司的电话，且对方似乎对他的一切了如指掌时，他感到非常困惑。

这个不请自来的推销员提供了一项交易：该公司将预付一笔现金，以换取代收他未来的赔付款项，这些款项原定在未来五年内分期支付。

根据《洛杉矶时报》审阅的通话录音，该男子说：“我真的很想知道，你们是怎么拿到我的号码的？这是一件非常机密的事情。你们绝不应该知道我的名字，更不用说我的电话号码了。”

他说他从未得到答案。相反，销售人员向他提出，如果他能找到其他同样愿意出售赔付款的人，将向他支付 $200 的推荐费。

起诉洛杉矶县的受害者们表示，这类邀约已变得无处不在。通过 Facebook 消息和陌生拜访电话，[见 Parents, A14]

用“人造遮荫”填补洛杉矶缺乏树木的空白

市府在酷暑热浪中测试弹出式顶篷和帐篷

GENARO MOLINA 洛杉矶时报 一名男子正走向胡佛娱乐中心（Hoover Recreation Center）的遮荫处，那里的一顶顶篷覆盖了操场。

在经历了洛杉矶市中心有记录以来最热的夏天以及随之而来的长期热浪后，本周末气温终于开始下降。上周六，当博览公园（Exposition Park）的气温达到 103 度时，一串红黄相间的布帆被拉在路灯之间，以提供少许遮荫。

这些布帆横跨在卢卡斯叙事艺术博物馆（Lucas Museum of Narrative Art）与体育馆（Coliseum）之间的道路上，为数千名前往南加州大学（USC）返校美式足球赛的人群提供了缓解。

“在遮荫棚下确实大不一样，”名为 ShadeLA 的一年期合作项目的共同负责人 Edith de Guzman 表示，“在外面走感觉很痛苦，但一旦进入遮荫帆下，我们就待了几个小时，感觉是可以忍受的。”在加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）和南加州大学（USC）的领导下，ShadeLA 与市、县及其他团体合作，保护洛杉矶免受烈日暴晒。

2019年以来洛杉矶警察局（LAPD）诉讼费用高达 4.8亿美元

警员失职、交通事故和职场不公引发“核弹级裁决”。

作者：LIBOR JANY 和 SEAN GREENE

洛杉矶警察局（LAPD）的法律账单在不断累积。

在过去的七年半里，洛杉矶市已支出近 4.8亿美元 以结束涉及警察局的法律纠纷，其中包括过度使用武力的指控、关于交通事故的诉讼，以及由据称在举报失职行为后遭到报复的员工所提起的案件。

随着洛杉矶财务问题的恶化，激增的法律成本在近年来受到了更严厉的审查。该市在 2025 年面临 10亿美元 预算缺口，但在采取各项削减成本措施后，仍设法为LAPD拨出资金，以便在未来一年招聘 500 多名新警员。

根据《时报》对市检察官数据的分析，LAPD每年的诉讼成本从 2019 到 2025 年增长了一倍多。赔付金额在 2024 年达到顶峰，当时该市花费 1.786亿美元 解决了 300 多起与警察相关的诉讼和民事索赔，随后在 2025 年下降至略高于 1亿美元。

《时报》审阅了数百页的法院文件，并分析了通过公共记录请求从市检察官办公室获取的数据，显示自 2019 年 1 月以来共有近 2,000 笔赔付。

在今年前六个月中，该市已支付了 2030万美元 用于涉及LAPD警员的法律和解金和法院判决金。近期几起巨额裁决未计入该总额，因为它们尚未获得市议会的批准。

市审计长肯尼斯·梅希亚（Kenneth Mejia）表示，LAPD赔付成本的激增使资金匮乏的城市失去了用于修复道路和人行道等紧迫需求的资金。

公开执行计划引发厌恶

五角大楼意图直播处决胡德堡枪击手的计划引发两党愤怒。

国防部长皮特·海格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）在确认计划于12月 3 日直播对胡德堡大规模枪击手尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（Nidal Malik Hasan）执行军事枪决时，称对于针对美国军人的“激进伊斯兰恐怖袭击”，这是一种“无需多虑”的惩罚。

“我们将确保人们能够观看，确保它是公开的，因为人们需要明白，这类行为会带来严重的后果，”海格塞斯在接受 Real America's Voice 网络的采访时表示。

而全美乃至全球的其他人士——包括民主党人和共和党人、人权专家、法律学者以及军事和宗教领袖——谴责此举是野蛮地倒退回将处决视为娱乐的时代，并认为作为世界领先的民主国家，美国正在采用一种在现代仅由独裁政权和恐怖组织实施的惩罚形式。

“哈桑应该面临死刑，但将他的处决公开并进行直播？简直令人作呕，”参议员汤姆·蒂利斯（Thom Tillis，共和党-北卡罗来纳州）在 X 上写道。“公开处决是像伊朗和阿富汗这样的压迫性独裁政权所做的事。这不应该发生在美利坚。”

“我绝对支持死刑判决，但直播处决是圣战分子所做的事。美国比这更好，”众议员奥斯汀·斯科特（Austin Scott，共和党-佐治亚州）写道。

前国际刑事法院法官、南非原住民获和平奖

罢工仍在继续。

纳维·皮莱在诺贝尔奖公布后在纽伦堡论坛上发表讲话。 DANIEL KARMANN DPA

作者：STEFANIE DAZIO, JAMEY KEATEN 以及 KOSTYA MANENKOV

奥斯陆 —— 纳维·皮莱（Navi Pillay）是一位出生于南非的法学家，曾任联合国人权事务高级专员。她的职业生涯跨度极大，从捍卫被监禁的纳尔逊·曼德拉的权利，到领导一个认定以色列在加沙实施种族灭绝的小组。周五，她获得了诺贝尔和平奖，奖项委员会表示，她的努力在国际法遭受攻击之际促进了国际法的发展。

她的获胜无疑将被视为对特朗普总统和以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的高调谴责，两人此前均拒绝接受她领导的联合国加沙委员会的调查结果。这两位领导人还对国际法院（ICJ）和国际刑事法院（ICC）持高度批评态度。皮莱曾在两家机构工作。

在挪威公布奖项数小时后，特朗普政府对国际刑事法院实施了广泛的新制裁，将其作为瓦解该法庭的行动的一部分，原因是该法庭对美国及其盟友（包括以色列）展开了调查。

在该奖项设立 125 周年之际，挪威诺贝尔委员会试图“提醒世界，国家和国际法治是我们为确保和平及以非暴力方式解决冲突而建立的系统的基石。和平需要正义，”委员会主席约根·瓦特内·弗里德内斯（Jørgen Watne Frydnes）表示。

法官们“守护着秩序与混乱之间那条纤细的红线”，而世界需要具有“勇气、远见和决心的法学家，而纳维·皮莱在法官任上的工作中展现了这些品质”。

在以色列和种族隔离时期的南非等地，皮莱及其同行处理了一些世界上最痛苦、最敏感的法律问题，以及最脆弱的群体。

85 岁的皮莱在参加德国纽伦堡的一个论坛时得知了这一消息，当年对纳粹战犯的审判在纽伦堡帮助奠定了国际法的基础。在奖项公布时，她正身处当年举行审判的同一房间内。

她表示，削弱国际刑事司法公正的努力“危及了自纽伦堡以来艰苦取得的进步，并可能让我们回到一个由权力而非法律决定谁的苦难更重要的世界”。

领导了认定加沙发生种族灭绝的调查

皮莱曾担任由联合国支持的人权理事会设立的“被占领巴勒斯坦领土和以色列调查委员会”主席。该委员会在一年前得出结论，认为以色列对加沙的种族灭绝负责，且具有摧毁加沙巴勒斯坦人的特定意图。

在周五得知获奖后，皮莱最早发表的评论之一就涉及加沙。她在掌声中表示：“那里正在发生的是种族灭绝。”

该委员会还发现，以色列总统、总理及前国防部长“煽动了种族灭绝行为的实施”。以色列自该委员会 2021 年成立以来一直拒绝与其合作，并坚决否认这些指控。

皮莱多次反驳那些指责她反犹或对哈马斯在以色列发动的袭击视而不见的批评者。在她的领导下，该委员会还发布报告，指责哈马斯在 2023 年 10 月 7 日的袭击中犯有战争罪并违反了国际人道法。

在去年接受美联社（Associated Press）采访时，她回忆起自己在故乡南非反对种族隔离制度期间，如何与一些犹太律师密切合作，并提到自己在 2008 年至 2014 年担任联合国人权 chief 期间曾受邀访问以色列。

在严酷的种族隔离制度下长大，影响了皮莱对人权和法律的兴趣。从曼德拉担任总统开始，南非政府就公开将种族隔离时期非白人面临的处境与巴勒斯坦人的苦难相类比。

“我们深知，如果没有巴勒斯坦人的自由，我们的自由是不完整的，”曼德拉在种族隔离结束后不久说道。

诺贝尔奖的公布正值加沙的另一个关键时刻，就在哈马斯领导的 2023 年袭击周年纪念日两天之后，那次袭击导致约 1,200 人死亡并引发了战争。此后，已有超过 74,000 名巴勒斯坦人被杀，其领土遭到毁灭性破坏。周六标志着一项脆弱的停火协议生效一周年，而以色列

内塔尼亚胡在 X 上写道，诺贝尔委员会将最高荣誉授予一名“将职业建立在编造并传播针对唯一犹太国家的血祭诽谤之上的偏执狂”，这表明该委员会“已经失去了道德指南针”。

该奖项是在以色列选举前不到三周公布的，内塔尼亚胡正努力在这次选举中维持权力。

再次聚焦美国与国际刑事法院的不和

皮莱的获奖以及美国的新制裁，使人们重新关注特朗普与国际刑事法院（ICC）之间持续的不和，皮莱曾在 2003 年至 2008 年期间担任该法院法官。

美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥在一段视频演讲中表示，政府将“禁止与这个流氓法院进行交易，切断其资源，并削弱其针对我们采取行动的能力”。

制裁措施封锁了国际刑事法院作为机构在美国管辖区内的任何资产，并为美国公司和个人设定了六个月的期限，以终止与该法院的所有业务。

在鲁比奥宣布消息后，诺贝尔委员会没有立即回复寻求评论的电子邮件。

皮莱目前在联合国最高法院——国际法院（International Court of Justice）担任临时法官，参与针对缅甸的持续种族灭绝案件。

当国家在法院 15 名法官的常任小组中没有代表时，可以任命一名其选择的专家。冈比亚于 2019 年发起诉讼，在指控缅甸对罗兴亚少数群体实施种族灭绝时选择了皮莱。

在南非种族隔离时期的年轻律师生涯中，皮莱的部分工作包括为被关押在罗本岛的政治犯（包括后来获得诺贝尔和平奖的曼德拉）确立关键权利。

种族隔离结束以后，曼德拉任命皮莱为该国首位担任高等法院法官的非白人女性。

去年由反对派领导人获奖

去年，委内瑞拉反对派领导人玛丽亚·科里纳·马查多（María Corina Machado）因致力于实现该南美国家的民主转型而获得诺贝尔和平奖。

在美国推翻时任总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗（Nicolás Maduro）后不久，马查多将她的诺贝尔奖章交给了特朗普。但这在很大程度上是一个象征性的举动：诺贝尔委员会表示，荣誉本身无法转移。

在特朗普的第二个任期内，他曾公开表达过对获得诺贝尔奖的渴望，但同时也表示怀疑委员会是否会向他颁奖。

“他们一直以来可能不倾向于把奖项给像我这样的人，”特朗普周三告诉记者。

胡塞武装声称袭击沙特机场导致 3 人死亡

作者：SALLY ABOU ALJOUD 和 CARA ANNA

贝鲁特 —— 沙特民航局周五表示，在针对利雅得哈立德国王国际机场及一架沙特航空公司飞机的袭击中，三名沙特公民死亡，其中一名为航空公司飞行员。数名“不同国籍”的人员受伤。

周四的袭击是沙特阿拉伯自上周末该国及邻国也门盟军对也门受伊朗支持的胡塞武装发起大规模军事攻势以来，最致命的一次袭击。

此次袭击也标志着伊朗战争最新战线的重大升级，这场战争使油价和金融市场持续波动。

联合国特使汉斯·格伦德伯格（Hans Grundberg）告诉联合国安理会，也门局势依然“高度不稳定”，在已经面临严重人道主义危机和粮食不安全状况的国家中，平民承受了升级暴力带来的沉重打击。

前往沙特阿拉伯的航班被取消

根据航班追踪网站 FlightAware 的数据，截至周五下午，在周四已有数百架航班被取消后，至少有 124 架往返利雅得的航班被取消。

由于中东局势，印度航空（Air India）、迪拜航空（FlyDubai）、汉莎航空集团（Lufthansa Group）和巴基斯坦国际航空公司（Pakistan International Airlines）等航空公司暂停了未来几天往返利雅得及其他沙特机场的航班。

欧盟航空安全局扩大了关于沙特领空的指导意见，指出胡塞武装有能力打击沙特境内更深处的目标（包括利雅得），并且“更加关注航空基础设施”。最新的指导意见补充道，“反复发生的导弹和无人机袭击，以及防空系统的启动，增加了将民航飞机误认为目标的风险，同时也带来了与导弹和无人机飞越、拦截活动以及坠落碎片相关的风险。”

也门胡塞武装声称发动袭击

沙特方面的声明称，周四的第一次袭击针对的是机场设施，而第二次袭击击中了飞机。声明未指明责任方，但胡塞武装声称使用弹道导弹袭击了该机场。

汉莎航空是暂停往返沙特机场航班的航空公司之一。

沙特航空集团（Saudi Group）在声明中表示，死者中包括哈穆德·阿里·阿尔-卡尔萨米（Hamoud Ali Al-kalthami）机长。这似乎是新攻势开始以来，首次确认针对沙特国家航空公司的袭击。另一份沙特航空集团的声明称，其一架飞机在地面时受损，机上无乘客。

航空声明还提到，沙特公民和其他国籍人员的伤势“从轻伤到重伤不等”。沙特航空集团随后表示，机场的运营活动已恢复正常。

联军轰炸也门首都

也门首都萨那的居民在周四深夜至周五期间听到了剧烈的爆炸声，胡塞武装与沙特领导的部队之间的激烈战斗仍在继续。

胡塞武装管理的卫生部发言人阿尼斯·阿尔-阿斯巴希（Anees al-Asbahi）在X平台上表示，沙特领导的联军昨夜对萨那发起的两次袭击造成六人受伤，其中包括一名儿童。

沙特当局尚未确认对萨那的袭击。

沙特驻也门大使穆罕默德·阿尔-贾比尔（Mohamed al-Jabir）周五在X平台的一篇帖子中声称，曼德海峡已从胡塞武装的残余势力中被“清除”。他未提供进一步细节。

周五，抗议者聚集在也门多个由胡塞武装控制的城市，谴责沙特阿拉伯及其支持者。

与此同时，包括科威特和巴基斯坦在内的沙特盟友谴责了对利雅得机场的袭击。科威特外交部表示，该王国的安全是科威特及海湾阿拉伯国家合作委员会（GCC）国家安全中“不可分割的一部分”。

巴基斯坦表示，根据与沙特阿拉伯和土耳其签署的一项新共同防御协议，其将向沙特阿拉伯提供军事能力以对抗胡塞武装。外交部发言人萨贾德·海德尔·汗（Sajjad Haider Khan）告诉记者，驻扎在沙特阿拉伯的该国军队不会进入也门攻击受伊朗支持的胡塞武装，而将保卫该王国的领土。

利雅得机场多次成为目标

沙特首都的机场近日遭到重复攻击。本周，胡塞武装向全球航空公司发出警告，提醒其在沙特领空运营可能产生的后果，他们将该领空描述为其军事行动的剧场。

周三，沙特官员表示，胡塞武装声称对利雅得和阿布哈（Abha）机场发起的袭击已造成三人死亡。

沙特阿拉伯面临着来自胡塞武装日益增加的攻击，后者在今年早些时候针对沙特对其实施的封锁而宣布对该王国实施封锁。

该王国已寻求包括美国在内的盟友支持。

特朗普总统对扩大美国在中东的军事参与表现出不情愿，且目前尚未命令美军恢复对反政府武装的袭击。

去年，美国曾开展为期近两个月的对胡塞武装空袭行动，旨在开通红海的国际航道。

此前，为了回应以色列对加沙地带实施的封锁，胡塞武装通过自身袭击使该水道中断了数月。在美军消耗了数亿美元的弹药后，特朗普停止了袭击。

本周早些时候在利雅得与沙特王储穆罕默德·本·萨勒曼（Mohammed bin Salman）会面的康涅狄格州参议员克里斯·默菲（Chris Murphy）周四告诉记者，他担心沙特方面对于此次军事行动缺乏明确的最终目标。

7.7级地震袭击巴拿马，引发人员疏散

作者：胡安·萨莫拉诺 (JUAN ZAMORANO) 以及 阿尔玛·索利斯 (ALMA SOLÍS)

巴拿马城 —— 周五上午，一次 7.7 级强震袭击了巴拿马，导致首都建筑剧烈摇晃，引发人员疏散，震感远至邻国哥伦比亚。

美国地质调查局（USGS）表示，此次地震的震中位于中部埃雷拉省偏远社区皮塔洛萨-阿里巴（Pitaloza Arriba）西南约 6 英里处。震源深度为 6 英里。USGS 最初报告地震等级为 8 级，随后将其修正为 7.6 级，之后又修正为 7.7 级。

巴拿马城的居民明显感到惊恐，他们聚集在室外等待关于地震影响的消息。随后发生了余震，USGS 记录到两次震级分别为 5.8 级和 5.5 级的余震。

“我们感觉震感非常强烈。厨房里的东西被震倒了，但我们没事，虽然我们非常害怕，”来自地震发生地埃雷拉省的 60 岁居民罗森多·多明格斯（Rosendo Domínguez）在接受美联社电话采访时表示，“所有人都跑到了室外，很害怕。”

国家气象局周五针对巴拿马、哥伦比亚、厄瓜多尔、尼加拉瓜和危地马拉的海岸线发布了海啸预警。

巴拿马总统何塞·劳尔·穆利诺（José Raúl Mulino）呼吁保持冷静，他在 X 上写道：“发生的事情不应被用来制造恐慌或混乱。”

国家民防局的奥马尔·史密斯（Omar Smith）在 Telemetro Reporta 新闻频道上表示，损失集中在中部的韦拉瓜斯省、埃雷拉省和洛斯桑托斯省。他表示，以数百栋摩天大楼著称的首都尚未收到损坏报告。

当地新闻机构播出的视频显示，在中部科克莱省的佩诺诺梅市（Penonomé），一座天主教大教堂坍塌，一家酒店的部分外墙掉落在了一辆汽车上。目前尚未收到人员伤亡报告。

巴拿马位于“环太平洋火山带”上，这是一个环绕太平洋盆地、长达 25,000 英里的火山和断层线弧形地带，全球大多数地震均发生于此。

巴拿马民防局表示，正在调查震中附近地区的可能损失。

东耶路撒冷英国领事馆被降级

法律问题。

英以争端源于被视为非法占领的约旦河西岸定居点。

作者：卡拉·安娜（CARA ANNA） 及 吉尔·劳莱斯（JILL LAWLESS）

耶路撒冷——以色列周四表示，英国驻东耶路撒冷领事馆已“停止履行”该职能，20名工作人员将离开该国，这加深了这两个密切盟友之间数十年以来最大的外交裂痕。

领事馆外的标志已被拆除，但英国方面表示，该建筑仍保持开放，核心工作人员将继续提供“至关重要的服务”并与巴勒斯坦人合作。英国政府表示，在寻求重建其人员编制期间，不会通过驱逐以色列外交官来采取报复行动。

这场争端始于上个月，当时英国禁止与被占领的约旦河西岸以色列定居点进行贸易。联合国及国际社会的大部分成员认为所有定居点均属非

“以色列将不再对针对其的外交攻击视而不见，”以色列外交部长吉迪昂·萨尔（Gideon Saar）在一份声明中表示，并补充说该建筑将继续由一个由7名外交官组成的“工作组”运行，且活动范围“非常有限”。包括总领事在内的20名英国外交官将离开以色列。

英国外交大臣埃德·米利班德（Ed Miliband）在一份声明中表示，在与以色列政府讨论后，该建筑“将被称为英国驻耶路撒冷代表团”，且将有一支小型外交团队继续在那里工作。

“我们将在接下来的几个月里努力重建我们的存在，”米利班德说。

“这将确保我们维持长期以来的英国存在，以及英国在支持‘两国方案’中所扮演的角色，”米利班德补充道。

英国此前曾威胁，如果领事馆被关闭，将驱逐以色列外交官，但表示目前不会这样做，因为英国正与以色列就扩大代表团规模进行谈判。

与此同时，中东事务大臣斯蒂芬·多蒂（Stephen Doughty）告诉 Times Radio：“我们的外交官将能够开展其重要工作，例如处理与巴勒斯坦人的关系，以及为访问该地区的英国国民提供支持。”

米利班德明确表示，英国“不接受以色列政府有权关闭驻耶路撒冷英国总领事馆的法律权利，该领事馆已在那里存在了近200年。”这位外交大臣补充说，英国政府重申其观点，即东耶路撒冷“是被占领土”。

英国和以色列继续保持密切的国防和安全合作，但由于以色列在加沙与哈马斯武装组织战争中的行为，以及英国去年决定承认巴勒斯坦国，两国的外交关系有所恶化。

上个月宣布禁止与被占领的约旦河西岸以色列定居点贸易，标志着英国对这一长期盟友的立场显著强硬。

中东事务大臣多蒂表示，英国与以色列拥有“强有力且持续的关系”。

以色列在1967年的中东战争中占领了约旦河西岸以及加沙和东耶路撒冷，这些领土是巴勒斯坦人希望用于建立未来国家的地区。自那时起，以色列政府建立了大量定居点，居住着超过500,000名犹太定居者。许多定居点看起来像发育完全的郊区。

在总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡领导下的现任政府是以色列历史上最民族主义和宗教色彩最浓的政府，该政府将约旦河西岸视为犹太人的圣经和历史故土，并将定居点视为维持安全的关键。

鲁比奥拒绝就吉尔福伊尔指控发表评论

马克·希费尔拜恩（MARK SCHIEFELBEIN） 综合照片 美国驻希腊大使金伯利·吉尔福伊尔（Kimberly Guilfoyle）本周与国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥（Marco Rubio）拥抱。

作者：马修·李（MATTHEW LEE）

雅典 —— 美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥断然拒绝就一份新报告发表评论，该报告指称美国驻希腊大使金伯利·吉尔福伊尔在就职前存在不当且可能违法的行为。

鲁比奥告诉记者，他不会讨论《华尔街日报》一篇文章中的指控。该文章称，吉尔福伊尔在确认听证会之前，曾要求一名特朗普总统的捐赠者兼支持者为其支付一笔 $100,000 信用卡账单，并承诺如果对方支付，将允许其接触政府官员。

他在离开希腊前发表了讲话，呼吁欧洲国家回归他所描述的文明之根。

鲁比奥表示，他已知晓周三晚间发表的《华尔街日报》报告，但不知道其是否属实，且不会对此做出回应。

“你们到处走动，认为只要某个消息源告诉了你们某些事情并且你们报道了，那就是真理。这不是真理。对我来说这不是真理。这不是我们做事的方式，”他在飞机舱门前说道，而吉尔福伊尔在旁观看。

在周三与希腊外长举行的联合新闻发布会上，鲁比奥表示在访问外国期间不会回应这些指控，但他补充道：“只需说我们的使馆在这里工作出色。我们的大使在这里一直是一位强有力的大使。”

众议院外交事务委员会和参议院外交关系委员会的两名最高级别民主党人已要求对吉尔福伊尔展开调查，但鲁比奥并未表示是否准备启动调查。

国会民主党人此前已经在调查《华尔街日报》上月报道的指控，该报道称吉尔福伊尔在担任美国驻希腊最高使节期间行为不当。

《华尔街日报》报道称，吉尔福伊尔在一次招待会上告诉宾客，美国如果愿意，可以削弱希腊政府；她还推销了一家特定希腊建筑和能源公司的商业利益，并允许该公司的说客参加私人外交会议。

吉尔福伊尔曾是福克斯新闻频道（Fox News Channel）的主持人和加利福尼亚州检察官，曾与特朗普之子小唐纳德（Donald Jr.）订婚。她否认有任何不当行为，鲁比奥此前也曾为她辩护。

极右翼获胜令移民质疑在德生活

马蒂亚斯·施拉德（MATTHIAS SCHRADER）美联社 乌尔里希·西格蒙德（ULRICH SIEGMUND）领导德国选择党（AfD）在萨克森-安哈尔特州赢得胜利。

柏林——自从极右翼、反移民的德国选择党上个月赢得一场地区选举以来，奥拉·阿克拉斯（Ola Akhras）和她的丈夫每天都在讨论是否应该回到叙利亚。

这对夫妇与两个年幼的女儿住在马格德堡。周二，萨克森-安哈尔特州新当选的州议会在此举行了首次会议。此前，德国选择党（AfD）取得了迄今为止最好的选举结果，使其处于强有力的地位，有望组建二战以来德国首个由极右翼领导的地区政府。

在首次会议期间，拥有 83 个席位的议会选举 AfD 的托比亚斯·劳施（Tobias Rausch）为议长。这一职位传统上由最大政党担任，被视为初步的象征性胜利。该州下一任州长预计在 12 月之前不会选出。

“情况很糟糕——我们在这里建立了生活，我们真的很喜欢这里，但现在我们觉得不再受欢迎了，”阿克拉斯说，她于 2018 年从霍姆斯逃往德国。她能说流利的德语，在当地医院担任医生，目前正在完成内科专科培训。

戴着希贾布（hijab）的阿克拉斯表示，她在工作中感到被认可，但最近在购物时遇到了敌意，并且不再觉得晚上出门是安全的。自选举以来，这种不归属感已变得难以承受。

“我们的孩子在这里永远不会被认可为德国人，”她说。

现在的社会氛围与十年前截然不同。当时在总理安格拉·默克尔的领导下，德国欢迎了超过 100 万来自叙利亚、伊拉克和阿富汗等战乱国家的移民。许多人建立了新生活，学习了语言并找到了工作。

然而，随着德国的经济问题——增长缓慢、高通胀、能源价格上涨——日益恶化，公众对新移民的情绪也随之恶化。AfD 和其他移民批评者将国家的这些问题归咎于移民。

这个成立 13 年的政党在德国前共产主义且经济较弱的东部各州（包括萨克森-安哈尔特州）支持率增长尤为迅速。不过，它在国家层面的影响力也在持续扩大。它是议会中最强大的反对党，并在近期的民调中领先。

AfD 上个月在萨克森-安哈尔特州的胜利，凸显了该党在利用不满情绪方面的技巧。在总理弗里德里希·梅尔茨（Friedrich Merz）不得人心的联邦政府努力扭转德国顽固低迷的经济局面之际，AfD 捕捉到了远超其限制移民这一核心主题之外的议题。

该党的强劲表现令移民以及那些认为德国在经历纳粹过去的恐怖后已对民族主义免疫的德国人感到不安。

AfD 是否会在萨克森-安哈尔特州组建下一届政府仍不确定——在 9 月 6 日的选举中，它距离过半数席位还差 3 个。但许多移民和难民担心，如果这个极右翼政党成功领导州政府，它可能会尝试履行其竞选承诺，其中包括增加并加快驱逐出境速度，以及限制寻求庇护者的准入。

目前还没有数据显示选举后种族主义事件是否增加，但萨克森-安哈尔特州移民组织网络的执行主任温德拉·德雷斯勒（Undra Dressler）表示：“咨询中心极其繁忙，电话响个不停，咨询预约已全部订满，人们非常需要咨询和支持。”

“我们知道有人已经离开了，有人在考虑离开，也有人做出了坚决反对离开的决定，他们说：‘我要留下。我不接受这些条件。现在比以往任何时候都更需要我参与其中’，”德雷斯勒说。

那些决定留下的人之一是穆罕默德·阿尔达巴格（Mohamad Aldabagh），一名来自霍姆斯的药剂师，他在2015年叙利亚内战最激烈时期逃往德国。那一年，数十万人乘坐简陋的橡胶艇跨越地中海，希望在欧洲找到一个更安全的未来。

“在德国生活的过去10年是一段非常美好的经历，”34岁的阿尔达巴格说道。他有两个年幼的孩子，在马格德堡的一家药店工作。“我在这里重建了我的生活，我不会让任何人把它从我身边夺走。”

尽管他表示自己也经历过种族主义，但他认为像他这样以及在德国工作的许多外国医生这样的技术工人是必需的，社会承担不起虐待他们的代价。

虽然德国选择党（AfD）在萨克森-安哈尔特州的纲领并未完全拒绝劳动力移民，但它在招募外国工人方面采取了高度筛选的方法。

马格德堡-施滕达尔应用科学大学（Magdeburg-Stendal University of Applied Sciences）社会与健康服务教授拉希姆·哈吉（Rahim Hajji）表示，该党明确建议避免招募其描述为“文化异质”的工人，并终止一项旨在支持外国技术工人融入的州政府计划。

“这提出了一个根本性的问题，”哈吉说。“一个人口老龄化且劳动力短缺日益严重的国家，如果大幅限制其愿意招募的国际工人池，将如何满足其对技术工人的需求？”

根据研究德国移民情况的 Mediendienst Integration 组织的一项调查，截至今年8月，萨克森-安哈尔特州医院中超过 1 / 4 的医生（即 27.1%）不具备德国国籍。

“我们希望为这里的社会福祉做出贡献，”阿尔达巴格说。“我们是被需要的。我们不是这个国家的害群之马。”

随后他停顿了一下，补充道：“但如果我们不再获得尊重，那么我们将搬到另一个 AfD 势力没那么强的州。”

查尔斯国王为安德鲁偿还债务

作者：丹妮卡·基尔卡（DANICA KIRKA）

伦敦 —— 由于前安德鲁王子（Prince Andrew）与被定罪的性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）有关联，被强制搬出温莎城堡附近的一处皇室房产，查尔斯三世国王支付了$2 million以偿还其弟弟欠下的费用。

一名熟悉此次付款的人士周五表示，查尔斯从其私人收入中向其弟弟（现名为安德鲁·蒙巴顿-温莎）出借了这笔资金，以确保皇室地产局（Crown Estate）能按时收到款项。

这一披露是在管理皇室财产的皇室地产局表示，由于房产处于破旧状态，蒙巴顿-温莎被收取了$2.400 万，同时因提前交还租约而获得了$400,000的补偿金。这使他留下了$2 million的债务，由国王支付。

皇室地产局在周五公布这些数字的同时宣布，蒙巴顿-温莎已完全搬出皇家小屋（Royal Lodge）。这是一座位于伦敦西侧温莎城堡附近、被公园绿地环绕的拥有30个房间的宏伟住宅。他于2月离开了该小屋。

皇室地产局是一家由议会设立的独立公司，负责管理遍布整个英国的庞大房产组合。这些房产在名义上由君主在世期间拥有，但其运营是为了纳税人的利益。

皇室地产局在一份声明中表示：“皇家小屋的租约已经结束，我们现在的重点坚定地放在其未来的用途，以及通过提前收回该房产为国家创造额外财务价值的机会上。”

去年，由于君主试图保护王室其他成员免受蒙巴顿-温莎与爱泼斯坦关系持续引发的丑闻影响，查尔斯剥夺了其弟弟的王子头衔，并命令他离开皇家小屋。与此同时，美国司法部（DOJ）公布了调查爱泼斯坦的数百万页文件，揭露了其与前王子之间此前不为人知的联系细节。

蒙巴顿-温莎继续居住在皇家小屋对许多人来说是一个尤为敏感的问题，因为他无需为该房屋及其周围99.5英亩的土地支付租金。

2003, 年，这位前王子签署了一份为期75年的皇家小屋租约。当时他仍是王室的在职成员，代表其母亲伊丽莎白二世女王出席公共活动，并担任英国特别贸易代表。租约要求蒙巴顿-温莎花费$10 million翻修该房产，并支付一次性款项$1.300 万。

皇室地产局表示，如果蒙巴顿-温莎在头25年内交还租约，他有权获得翻修费用的补偿。

现年66, 岁的蒙巴顿-温莎在2011年放弃了贸易特使的职务，并因人们对其与爱泼斯坦关系的担忧，在2019年退出了所有王室职责。

在2月搬出皇家小屋后，蒙巴顿-温莎搬到了英格兰东部桑德林厄姆庄园（Sandringham Estate）的一处住宅，该庄园由国王私人拥有。

就在几天后，蒙巴顿-温莎因涉嫌在担任特别贸易特使期间向爱泼斯坦提供敏感信息，涉嫌职务犯罪被捕。警方对这位前王子进行了11小时的审讯，并在皇家小屋及其在桑德林厄姆的新家进行了搜查。

蒙巴顿-温莎否认与爱泼斯坦的关系存在任何不当行为。

特朗普与普京达成协议采购俄罗斯柴油

周三，卡森市一家壳牌加油站显示的柴油价格为每加仑 \$7.95。

为了在期中选举前应对燃料价格，美国多年来对莫斯科施加的压力被逆转。

作者：MICHELLE L. PRICE 和 COLLIN BINKLEY

华盛顿 —— 特朗普总统表示，他已达成一项从俄罗斯采购柴油的协议。这标志着美国多年来因俄乌战争而对莫斯科施加压力的政策发生了惊人逆转，也是在美国期中选举前试图解决高燃料价格的一种尝试。

特朗普周五在社交媒体上表示，他在与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京的一次电话会议中达成了这项协议，此前预计他将在电话中讨论俄罗斯境内一起疑似鼠疫病例。

相反，特朗普表示，俄罗斯将立即供应超过 300,000 吨柴油，随后在 11 月再供应 500,000 吨，并在“紧随其后”的时间供应 100 万 吨。他写道，俄罗斯在此之后将在“短时间内”再交付 300 万 吨。

特朗普的这一令人震惊的宣布，发生在他上个月签署一项广泛的俄罗斯制裁法案之后。该法案旨在打击俄罗斯的能源经济等领域，而这些领域为其对乌克兰的战争提供了资金。

“伟大的农民、牧场主和卡车司机，是我的最高优先级。”

白宫没有回答关于谁为俄罗斯柴油买单，以及根据协议供应的燃料何时可用的问题。

由于伊朗战争颠覆了能源部门，全球汽油价格飙升。根据 AAA 的数据，美国周五的柴油全国平均价格为每加仑 \$6.23，此前在 9 月 22 日曾触及 \$6.52 的历史最高纪录。

克里姆林宫周五发布的一份普京声明称，在通话期间，他与特朗普“重点关注了解决乌克兰危机的前景”，并讨论了“围绕伊朗的情况以及双边关系的各个方面”。

普京表示，俄罗斯“确认其准备向美国和全球市场供应石油及石油产品”。“我相信这将对整个全球经济产生积极影响。”

普京在声明中表示，两国领导人同意保持联系。

泽连斯基在网上发表的一篇长文中对该协议做出反应，称俄罗斯将以“进一步的恐怖和背信弃义”来回报。他将其定性为对战争的投资，使其得以延长。

他说：“这正中俄罗斯下怀 —— 让它能杀掉更多人，发动更长时间的战争，更加不尊重美国，并给世界带来更大的损失和破坏。”

弗吉尼亚州众议员、联合经济委员会资深民主党人唐·拜尔（Don Beyer）称特朗普的宣布“令人愤怒”。

拜尔在 X 平台的一份声明中说：“这就是我们向任何愿意倾听的人发出的警告：在涉及俄罗斯的问题上，特朗普一点也不值得信任。希望他能利用扩大后的关税权力来帮助乌克兰是一个错误。现在他正在取消对俄罗斯化石燃料的制裁。”

特朗普上个月签署的法律预想对俄罗斯官员、银行以及影子油轮船队实施制裁，并禁止所有新的美国对俄投资以及处理主权债务。

该法律还指示特朗普对俄罗斯石油或天然气的前五大进口国征收高达 100% 的关税，但对于进口量低于俄罗斯天然气出口量 15% 且已采取重大措施减少此类进口的国家除外。

根据美国能源信息署的数据，美国自 2022 年起就未进口俄罗斯石油或天然气，当时拜登政府因莫斯科入侵乌克兰而禁止此类进口。

共和党人曾竞相拥抱特朗普，而现在不再如此

据乌克兰驻华盛顿大使馆发布的一份声明，乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基称其为“一个软弱的决定，不幸的是，这是一个由强大合作伙伴做出的软弱决定”。

特朗普在宣布该协议时，其特使史蒂夫·威特科夫（Steve Witkoff）和女婿贾里德·库什纳（Jared Kushner）正与乌克兰官员在迈阿密会面，讨论一项试图结束俄乌战争的提案。

“我认为我们的团队简直被当作了烟雾弹。这绝对是不公平的。这绝对不是合作伙伴之间应该对待彼此的方式，”泽连斯基说。

鉴于国会通过的一项两党法律指示政府针对俄罗斯石油和天然气的主要进口商，特朗普的举动使白宫本月对俄罗斯实施制裁的可能性产生疑问。

特朗普在宣布时并未提及制裁或俄罗斯的战争，而是表示：“为美国人降低价格，尤其是我们的”

亚特兰大 —— 不久前，佐治亚州州长候选人里克·杰克逊（Rick Jackson）曾热切地将自己与椭圆形办公室里的那位亿万富翁同行相类比。他承诺要成为一个“带有南方口音”的唐纳德·特朗普。在一次夏季集会的舞台上，杰克逊指着总统宣布：“我将成为这个男人最喜欢的州长。”

然而，在本周与民主党对手的辩论舞台上，杰克逊只有在凯莎·兰斯·博托姆斯（Keisha Lance Bottoms）提到特朗普时才讨论他。并且他向观众保证，他将“敢于面对任何人”。

杰克逊在重新调整定位方面并非孤例：全美范围内竞选参议院、美国众议院和州长职位的共和党候选人在选举日前的辩论中，正在回避特朗普总统或公开与其保持距离。

这些策略——与共和党人从竞选网站上删除特朗普信息的做法类似——是最新的迹象，表明由于选民对通货膨胀、伊朗战争及其他事务的沮丧，特朗普的地位下降了多少。这种动态凸显了许多共和党人在试图构建超越特朗普核心支持者的获胜联盟时所面临的危险选择。

共和党民调专家保罗·舒（Paul Shu-）表示，“共和党现在正面临着自身党内的选民投票率问题”，并且必须赢得最关心经济的“无党派选民”。

火车照片：在Oct. 9的A版中，一篇关于圣克莱门特海岸沿线铁路线未来的文章配图说明称，照片显示的是太平洋冲浪者号（Pacific Surfliner）。而照片中的火车实际上来自BNSF铁路公司。

马克（Shumaker）说：“你必须有某些重大举措才能改变这种叙事。”但他解释说，这意味着“在伊朗取得重大胜利”以及经济上的剧烈改善——而这些并不是任何共和党中期选举候选人在辩论讲台后能够强行推动的事情。

关于伊朗、关税与言论的走钢丝

记录在案

一些共和党人正采取与总统相左的特定立场。

密歇根州参议院候选人迈克·罗杰斯（Mike Rogers）在周四与民主党人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德（Abdul El-Sayed）的辩论中表示，他已私下敦促白宫与加拿大达成贸易协议，并结束总统实施的关税。加拿大是密歇根州最大的贸易伙伴，对于许多五大湖地区和中西部州而言亦然。

就在几天前，罗杰斯发布了一则新广告，他在其中表示：“我们知道加拿大不是我们的敌人。我们需要立即结束关税战。”

这与罗杰斯早先较为笼统的表态有明显不同，他此前在赞扬特朗普的“美国优先”经济议程的同时，仅表示关税并非“通用”的解决方案。

另一位密歇根州共和党人，众议员汤姆·巴雷特（Tom Barrett），此前已通过投票支持一项旨在维护国会对伊朗军事行动权限的战争权力决议，从而违背了总统的意愿。但在其所在的密歇根州中部选区与民主党人威尔·劳伦斯（Will Lawrence）辩论时，巴雷特在周一又对特朗普在内布拉斯加州的言论提出了批评，特朗普在当地暗示了伊朗攻击圣地亚哥和洛杉矶的可能性。

总统在论证中提到这些城市，旨在说明由于他的伊朗战争而导致油价上涨是确保国家安全所必须付出的“微小代价”。但民主党人抓住了这些言论，其中一些人坚称特朗普是在号召伊朗攻击美国城市。

当被问及特朗普的措辞是否可以接受时，巴雷特有机会重复白宫的解释——即特朗普只是随口提到一个他正试图防止的最坏情况——但他并未进行辩护。

“不，”他干脆地回答道。

反映出复杂的选举平衡，大多数共和党人试图将自己与总统区分开来，但并未明确指出与总统之间存在任何坚定的分歧。

接纳，随后反击

在竞选参议员席位期间，爱荷华州美国众议员艾希莉·欣森（Ashley Hinson）在周三与民主党人乔什·图雷克（Josh Turek）的辩论中，试图调和她早前承诺在国会参议院担任特朗普盟友的立场。她表示，在信守承诺的同时保持跨党派合作将“非常容易”——“跨党派”正是她竞选活动中一直强调的一个热门词汇。

“当这对爱荷华州很重要时，我会成为唐纳德·特朗普总统的盟友，但对于那些对我们州不利的事情，我会反击他——他知道这一点，因为我经常和他交流，”她说。“无论谁在白宫，无论谁在执政，无论谁掌握权力，这一点都成立。”

这与杰克逊在佐治亚州采取的路径相同，他通过接纳即将离任的佐治亚州州长布莱恩·肯普（Brian Kemp）来逐渐远离特朗普。肯普是一名与总统发生过冲突的共和党人，冲突始于特朗普关于自己在2020年总统大选中赢得佐治亚州的虚假指控。

“我会像布莱恩·肯普那样，敢于面对任何人，”杰克逊说。

另一位共和党众议员、来自纽约的迈克·劳勒（Mike Lawler）特意点名提到了一位民主党同事——新泽西州的乔什·戈特海默（Josh Gottheimer），并讨论了他们将共同推进的法案。这是他用来证明自己能够挑战特朗普及党派路线的论据之一。

“当我同意总统的观点时，我会直说。当我不同意总统的观点时，我也会直说，”他在结束陈词中说道。

与此同时，欣森提到了她在众议院参与起草并由拜登总统和特朗普总统共同签署成为法律的法案。

但在被问及总统向部分美国人发送《平价医疗法案》返现支票，并承诺如果共和党在期中选举后继续控制众议院和参议院将发放$5,000奖金时，她避免了对特朗普进行批评。

她表示，她“非常深切地关注”确保国会维持财政拨款权，并认为“在现有财力范围内更好地生活”至关重要。

尽管共和党人做出了这些努力，但民主党人继续用关于特朗普的攻击和反驳向他们密集炮轰。最激烈的时刻出现在民主党人凯特·康利（Cait Conley）反复声称劳勒总是与特朗普投票一致时。

“无论你多少次说100%的时间，”这位国会议员回答道，“这在事实证明上是错误的。”

ICE执法人员称枪击事件中自身处于危险之中

市长佐兰·马姆达尼（Zohran Mamdani）抵达现场，就ICE执法人员在布朗克斯区枪击一名男子一事向媒体发表讲话。 CHARLY TRIBALLEAU 官员称，纽约一名男子在驾车且车内有一名5岁儿童时，颈部中弹。

华盛顿——一名美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）高级官员周五表示，联邦移民执法人员在纽约向一名多米尼加男子开火，是因为该男子将车开向执法人员的车辆，他们认为自己的生命受到了威胁。

ICE执法与遣返行动部门负责人马科斯·查尔斯（Marcos Charles）表示，这名28岁的男子被纽约市警方确认身份为奥斯卡·贝尔加尔（Oscar Belgal），在ICE执法人员试图逮捕他时，其颈部被“轻微”击中。当局尚未公布贝尔加尔的伤情细节。

查尔斯在华盛顿与美国国土安全部部长马克韦恩·马林（Markwayne Mullin）共同举行的新闻发布会上表示，当该男子试图驾车逃离时，执法人员利用车辆将其拦截，但该男子向他们加速冲撞。国土安全部表示，此次新闻发布会旨在讨论“庇护城市政策带来的危险后果”。

查尔斯说：“我们的执法人员根据训练，在认为自己、搭档以及公众的生命处于危险之中时，运用训练采取了开火措施。”

官员们表示，枪击发生时，贝尔加尔的5岁儿子就在车内。

马林表示，ICE特工当时不知道车内有孩子，但贝尔加尔“心知肚明”，且通过试图逃避执法人员而选择让男孩陷入风险。

查尔斯表示，贝尔加尔与一个使用轻便摩托车和武器的抢劫团伙有关，去年被判定犯有重罪盗窃罪，并被判处五年缓刑。他补充说，今年9月ICE试图逮捕他进行遣返时，他曾逃避执法。

代表贝尔加尔处理一起待决毒品案件的法律援助协会（Legal Aid Society）周五呼吁对此次枪击事件进行“全面且透明”的调查，要求涉事执法人员承担责任，并要求结束“ICE在纽约市日益升级的部署”。

在上述毒品案件中，贝尔加尔对贩卖麻醉品的指控表示不认罪。法律援助协会未作进一步评论。

纽约市市长佐兰·马姆达尼和纽约州州长凯西·霍楚（Kathy Hochul）均为民主党人，两人在周四晚间表示，他们已向马林和特朗普总统施压要求释放贝尔加尔，但未获成功。他们还敦促政府立即公布ICE执法人员在枪击时的执法记录仪视频，并停止在市内的移民执法行动。

马林表示，贝尔加尔被拘留在纽约市外的一处“高度安全”的拘留设施中，但拒绝透露具体地点。

代表贝尔加尔的律师周四晚上提交了一份紧急请愿书，要求释放他。听证会定于周五下午举行。

马林还确认，ICE执法人员佩戴了已启动的执法记录仪，但未说明相关视频何时公布。根据该机构的政策，如果“确定符合机构的最佳利益”，执法记录仪视频可在72小时内公布。

周五，纽约市警方公布了其执法人员在枪击发生后抵达现场的视频。该部门此前表示，其人员未参与逮捕，且枪击发生时不在现场。

视频显示，一名市警在混乱的现场应对，贝尔加尔坐在地上，双手被反绑在身后，头部向一侧倾斜，周围被几名官员包围。视频显示执法人员将贝尔加尔抬起并将其放入一辆黑色SUV中。警方表示，他被送往医院。

当SUV在街区倒车时，可以听到一名执法人员说：“快加压，快加压。”

纽约市警察局局长杰西卡·蒂施（Jessica Tisch）表示，贝尔加尔（Belgal）当时正准备驶入一个停车位，一名身着便装的联邦执法人员拔枪靠近，随后另一名同样未着制服的联邦执法人员也跟了上来。贝尔加尔开始将车向前开，其中至少一名执法人员开了7发子弹，击中了该男子左耳下方。

抗议者和当地官员谴责这次枪击事件，认为它是特朗普政府打击移民行动所带来危险的一个典型例子。

“对于我们今天所看到的这一切，没有任何理由可以使其正当化，”马姆达尼（Mamdani）周四晚在枪击现场表示。

他指出，包围车辆的联邦执法人员穿着建筑工背心并戴着口罩，这使得人们很难将他们识别为移民执法人员。

马林（Mullin）在周五的新闻发布会上花费了大量时间批评马姆达尼以及纽约市在与美国移民海关执法局（ICE）合作方面的限制。这位于1月份就职的民主党人限制了当地与移民执法行动的合作，并多次呼吁废除ICE。

“庇护城市的政治人物为犯罪活动的滋生创造了环境，而不是为了让美国公民获得安全，”马林说道。

他表示，ICE已要求纽约当地官员扣留14,000多人，以便联邦执法人员将其接管并安置在移民拘留中心。

“沉默。我们得到的答复是绝对的沉默，”这位秘书说。“他们为什么要将这些人重新释放到街头？”

“我们是在执行国家的法律。我们没有在挑挑拣拣，”马林继续说道。“为什么这会有争议？我们都应该希望街道上维持法律与秩序。”

在特朗普的第二个任期内，国土安全部经常指控嫌疑人试图用车辆冲撞执法人员或以其他方式构成威胁，并以此作为开火的正当理由。

但其他涉及移民执法人员的枪击事件证据有时让这一理由受到质疑。

在1月7日明尼阿波利斯市勒妮·古德（Renee Good）被枪击身亡的事件中，国土安全部官员最初声称，在古德试图用车辆将其撞倒后，一名ICE执法人员为了自卫而开火。但从多个角度拍摄的视频挑战了政府的说法。

7月10, 在休斯顿，一名墨西哥国民洛伦佐·萨尔加多·阿拉乌霍（Lorenzo Salgado Araujo）在开车送建筑队前往工作现场时，被ICE执法人员枪击身亡。国土安全部坚称萨尔加多·阿拉乌霍冲撞了一辆ICE车辆，但其车内的三名男子对这一说法提出了异议。

去年在芝加哥郊区，移民执法人员枪击导致墨西哥国民西尔韦里奥·维列加斯·冈萨雷斯（Silverio Villegas González）死亡，执法人员称该男子开车冲向他们并用车辆拖拽了一人，导致其“严重受伤”。但当地警察的执法记录仪视频显示，枪击维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的特工在事后走来走去，并称自己的伤势“没什么大碍”。

南加州迎来降雨，沿海面临洪水风险

周五，当海浪冲击海堤时，工人们在卡皮斯特拉诺海滩（Capistrano Beach）的一栋房屋周围放置沙袋和胶合板。

[风暴报道，接 A1 页]

这是加利福尼亚州第二次发布热带风暴预警。

气象局办公室表示，即将到来的风暴可能会损坏门廊、遮阳篷、车棚、棚屋和未固定的移动房屋，并折断巨大的树枝，从而构成安全风险。该局警告称，桥梁和其他高架道路的驾驶条件十分危险。

加州大学农业与自然资源气候科学家丹尼尔·斯温（Daniel Swain）表示，目前在圣地亚哥海岸外约 800 英里处旋转的“瑞秋”在接近西海岸时实际上会增强，这一预测是不寻常且显著的。

通常情况下，一旦风暴进入东热带太平洋较冷的水域，它们会显著减弱。但海洋热浪和厄尔尼诺现象——导致海水温度比正常高出 10 到 13 度——为“瑞秋”提供了更有利的环境。

斯温在周五的一次简报会上说：“值得注意的是，这是一个不寻常的事件，它是由加州海岸外提前到达的低压槽与目前加州海岸外创纪录的温暖……海水温度共同促成的。”

周五上午，南加州居民提前感受到了“瑞秋”抵达后将出现的情况。

在新港滩（Newport Beach）的巴尔博亚半岛（Balboa Peninsula），街道在涨潮期间被至少一英尺深的水淹没，警方建议居民和驾驶员避开该区域。即使是在一个经常发生水浸（尤其是在厄尔尼诺期间）的社区，这次洪水依然令人震惊。

“这是我在半岛生活 20 年来见过的最糟糕的情况，”市议员乔·斯塔普尔顿（Joe Stapleton）表示。

官员们表示，巨大的涌浪（规模是最初预测的两倍）冲破了在 The Wedge 建立的 20 英尺高的堤坝，并冲毁了从 21 街到 6 街的道路。

新港滩市发言人乔治亚·里奥斯（Georgia Rios）说：“这次涌浪如此之高，是非常前所未有的。我们知道由于热带风暴‘瑞秋’会出现高涌浪，但结合厄尔尼诺现象，这在纽波特确实形成了一种合力。”

该市周五宣布进入局部紧急状态，并敦促居民领取沙袋，以便在周末保护他们的房屋。市政工作人员正在抽干街道上的积水，重建海滩堤坝，并打开潮汐阀以帮助减轻水分侵入。

“这甚至还不是预期的最糟糕情况，”里奥斯说。“预测周日伴随降雨情况会变得更糟。”

在拉古纳海滩（Laguna Beach），海岸公路（Coast Highway）和百老汇大街（Broadway）被巨浪和涨潮的水淹没。主海滩（Main Beach）通常是沙地——当地人经常聚集在这里在沙滩上散步和打沙滩排球——现在变成了汪洋大海。

在圣奥诺弗雷州立海滩（San Onofre State Beach），冲浪者和游客进入该地点的道路受损，导致出现大量停车问题。该海滩近年来经历了严重的海岸侵蚀，倡导者表示今年冬天可能会遭受沉重打击。

在长滩（Long Beach），本季已连续遭受一系列远距离飓风的沉重打击，强力海浪摧毁了半岛上大段的木板路，导致几栋房屋出现严重的结构性损坏。视频显示，海浪猛烈冲击保护海滨房屋的护岸。

该市此前已被异常活跃的、由厄尔尼诺驱动的飓风季所困扰，在劳动节周末遭受了飓风“玛丽”（Hurricane Marie）的破坏，上个月又遭受了飓风“波罗”（Hurricane Polo）的打击。

“我们几乎连续经历了三场风暴，”该市发言人拉斯·马丁（Laath Martin）表示。

官员们已对两处房产贴上了红色标签（禁止进入），其中包括一栋包含三个单元的双拼住宅。在“瑞秋”抵达之前，另有三栋建筑因在飓风“玛丽”中受损而被贴上了黄色标签（限制进入）。

随着居民们准备迎接一个可能感觉极其漫长的周末，长滩市已经分发了 7,500 多个沙袋。

“很难准确预测会发生什么，但仅根据预报，我们正在为进一步的破坏做准备，”马丁说道。

降雨时间

预报员表示，在整个南加州，降雨概率最高的时间段在周日上午至周一晚上之间。在洛杉矶县，预计降雨量为轻至中度，该地区大部分地区的降雨量在约0.25英寸到1英寸之间。根据奥克斯纳德（Oxnard）气象局办公室的数据，圣盖博山脉（San Gabriel Mountains）的降雨量预计会更多一些。

降雨强度可能在每小时0.25英寸或更低，因此不太可能出现碎片流和山体滑坡。

“周日晚些时候可能会出现几场雷阵雨。但我们预计不会出现长时间的过度降雨，”科恩（Cohen）在周五表示。

奥兰治县和圣地亚哥县的降雨量预计会更多，沿海地区在周末至下周初的降雨量将在0.5英寸到1英寸之间。包括大熊湖（Big Bear）和朱利安（Julian）在内的高海拔地区，降水量可能高达1.5英寸。

虽然预计来自“瑞秋”残余的热带水分仅会给南加州大部分地区带来轻雨，但莫哈韦沙漠（Mojave Desert）和内陆帝国（Inland Empire）可能会出现更显著的降水。

气象局警告称，圣地亚哥、埃尔卡洪（El Cajon）、丘拉维斯塔（Chula Vista）、埃斯孔迪多（Escondido）、棕榈泉（Palm Springs）和二十九掌市（Twenty-nine Palms）等地出现导致山洪爆发的过度降雨概率为中等，即 40%。中等风险意味着很可能发生多次山洪，且许多溪流可能会泛滥。时尚谷（Fashion Valley）附近的圣地亚哥河有可能达到轻微洪水水位。

在欧申赛德（Ocean-side）、圣克莱门特（San Clemente）、拉古纳尼格尔（Laguna Niguel）、里弗赛德（Riverside）、圣贝纳迪诺（San Bernardino）、拉斯维加斯以及加州与亚利桑那州边界地区，这种情况发生的概率为 $15\%$；而在亨廷顿海滩（Huntington Beach）、圣安娜（Santa Ana）、长滩（Long Beach）、安纳海姆（Anaheim）、波莫纳（Pomona）、维多利亚维尔（Victorville）、巴斯托（Barstow）以及亚利桑那州大部分地区和犹他州南部等地，概率为 $5\%$。

风力

圣地亚哥县的热带风暴预警意味着风速可能达到 39 mph 至 57 mph。“请立即采取行动，在风力变得危险之前完成准备工作，”气象局表示，“请为有限的风灾做好准备。”

其他潜在的损害来源可能包括根系较浅的树木，它们可能会折断或被连根拔起，“尤其是在通常没有强风的沿海和山谷地带”。

气象局还对圣地亚哥县海岸外的危险海况发出了警告。

“强风将导致海况危险，可能会导致船只倾覆或受损，并降低能见度，”气象局表示，“热带风暴级别的强风最早可能在周六晚上开始，但最可能发生在周日白天。”

洪水风险

在接下来的几天里，沿海洪水将仍然是该地区最令人担忧的问题，尤其是对于包括长滩、马里布和穆古角在内的向南开放的海岸线。据气象局称，涌浪不仅会带来海水入侵的可能性，还会带来危及生命的巨浪（部分地区高度在 3 到 6 英尺之间）以及离岸流。

预计南加州的潮位将比在没有厄尔尼诺现象导致的异常温暖海水影响下的正常预期高出 1 英尺到 1.5 英尺。预报员表示，高潮位、巨浪、凯尔文波以及高达 40 mph 的风速都可能导致沿海洪水，但目前断定其严重程度还为时过早。

“尽管传统的热带风暴直接影响主要集中在洛杉矶地区以南，但从长滩、圣佩德罗，一直到马里布、祖马海滩地区和卡塔利娜岛的人们，尤其是面向南和西的海滩，需要意识到，特别是周日，沿海洪水的担忧将会升级，部分地区可能会出现严重损坏，”科恩说道。

针对文图拉、洛杉矶、奥兰治和圣地亚哥县发布的沿海洪水咨询（警告海滩停车场、木栈道和道路可能发生洪水，预计会出现局部道路关闭以及轻微的海岸侵蚀）预计将持续到周二下午。

针对圣地亚哥县发布的热带风暴预警是该州历史上第二次发布此类警告。第一次是 2023 年针对热带风暴“希拉里”发布的，当时该风暴已退化为后热带

“希拉里”当时仍给该地区带来了打破纪录的降雨，导致街道被冲毁、房屋受损以及大范围停电。它在圣贝纳迪诺县引发了泥石流，淹没了科切拉谷，并损坏了死亡谷国家公园的道路。

圣地亚哥气象局办公室的气象学家米格尔·米勒表示，这一次真正的问题将是沿海洪水。

“我们现在的水位已经很高，而且每天早晚都会出现高潮位，在此基础上我们还面临巨浪，”他说。“所有这些因素叠加在一起，而且我们在最近几周已经看到，即使没有巨浪，仅仅是高潮位就已经让海水进入了通常不会进入的地方。”

与此同时，预报员表示，这次厄尔尼诺现象成为现代记录（可追溯至 76 年前）中最强一次的可能性正在增加。

厄尔尼诺更新

周四，美国国家海洋和大气管理局的气候预测中心表示，出现历史性、打破纪录的厄尔尼诺现象的可能性目前为 83%，高于上个月发布的 75% 的概率。

这种气候模式通常每两到七年出现一次，其特点是赤道太平洋中部和东部的海水升温，从而引发大气变化，进而影响全球天气。

在南加州，强厄尔尼诺现象通常与高于平均水平的降雨量相关。一些最强的厄尔尼诺年份，如 1982-83 年和 1997-98 年，给全州留下了大片破坏。

但并非所有年份都是如此。2015-16 年的厄尔尼诺季节并没有带来增加的降雨，但导致了创纪录的海岸侵蚀。

“从大局来看……太平洋中的所有这些暖水意味着有更多的能量可以传递到大气中，从而产生随之而来的风暴系统，”水资源部的州气候学家迈克尔·安德森在周四的一次加利福尼亚州自然资源局网络研讨会上表示。

“这些冬季风暴可以利用的能量是我们见过的最多的一次，这就是为什么我们要密切关注，”他补充道。

飓风“伊赛亚斯”携带风雨袭击美国墨西哥湾沿岸

周五，随着飓风“伊赛亚斯”（Isaias）在向阿拉巴马州海滩和佛罗里达州狭长地带（Panhandle）冲刺的过程中增强，美国墨西哥湾沿岸的房主们为发电机加满了油，在浴缸中蓄满了水，并购买了最后的应急物资。

这场3级风暴已发展成一场重大飓风——这是异常平静的大西洋飓风季中的首场重大飓风——预计将于周五晚上登陆。

预报员警告称，在风暴向内陆移动并向北将强风和暴雨带至亚特兰大之前，可能会出现严重的风暴潮、破坏性大风、洪水，甚至可能是龙卷风。

热带风暴级别的强风在正午前后开始袭击墨西哥湾海岸线，而在此数小时后，“伊赛亚斯”预计将在阿拉巴马州海岸的莫比尔湾（Mobile Bay）与佛罗里达州狭长地带的德斯廷市（Destin）之间登陆。这一低洼沿海地区以其点缀着度假屋、滨水酒吧和海鲜小屋的粉白色沙滩而闻名。

佛罗里达州巴拿马市的居民周五冒雨填充沙袋以保护房屋。

“我的意思是，这就是这种自然灾害的特性。这就是佛罗里达，”在消防部门工作的科利斯·斯通（Corliss Stone）说道。

许多人将在家面对“伊赛亚斯”

根据国家飓风中心的数据，最大的担忧之一是风暴潮，其高度可能达到 6 到 9 英尺。风险最高的地区包括佛罗里达州的彭萨科拉海滩和墨西哥湾群岛国家海滨。

与丈夫住在佛罗里达州海滨社区湾风（Gulf Breeze）的安妮·佩措尔德（Anne Petzold）表示，他们社区的所有人都计划在原地等待风暴过去。这对夫妇安装了飓风窗 shutters，清理了院中任何可能变成飞行物的物品，并准备了两台发电机。

“每个人都尽力而为，大家会询问是否需要帮助——请求帮助，提供帮助。一切都很好，”她说，“这只是另一次冒险。”

邻居杰·布拉泽尔（Jay Brazzell）说，他对照清单完成了待办事项，包括储备冰块和汽油。他决定留在原地，因为“伊赛亚斯”不像他经历过的其他飓风那样强大。

“我的意思是，我没有安装挡板，”69 岁的布拉泽尔说，“我已经经历过 9 次飓风了。”

国家飓风中心表示，预计整个狭长地带西部、阿拉巴马州南部和密西西比州南部将出现危险情况。周五上午沿海地区开始降雨，下午早些时候热带风暴状况开始增强。

为了表明警告的严重程度，根据该公司网站显示，佛罗里达州狭长地带的数十家 Waffle House 餐厅已关闭。这家深受喜爱的南方连锁店以在恶劣天气中保持营业而闻名，因此被视为衡量风暴严重程度的基准。

佛罗里达州州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯（Ron DeSantis）警告居民，预计会出现停电、汽油短缺以及桥梁和公路关闭的情况。

该中心表示，截至傍晚时分，风暴中心位于彭萨科拉以南约 90 英里处，正向北东北方向移动，最大持续风速为 115 英里 / 小时。3 级风暴被视为重大飓风，能够造成毁灭性破坏。

整个地区可能被大雨浸透

飓风中心表示，一旦“伊赛亚斯”（Isaias）登陆，预计其强度将减弱，直到周六下午被降级为热带风暴。

尽管如此，预计该风暴在向内陆移动时将带来强降雨，从阿拉巴马州南部到佐治亚州西南部，周末期间预计降水量将达到 4 到 8 英寸甚至更多。

自 2024 年“米尔顿”（Milton）摧毁佛罗里达州墨西哥湾沿岸以来，“伊赛亚斯”将成为首个袭击美国东部的飓风。预计该风暴在周末期间还将给东南部大部分地区带来强降雨和潜在洪水，随后在周一前影响中西部和东北部部分地区。

“伊赛亚斯”导致该地区大量航班停飞

从密西西比州的奥申斯普林斯（Ocean Springs）到佛罗里达州狭长地带（Panhandle）西部已发布飓风警告。多个县宣布强制撤离，阿拉巴马州的莫比尔（Mobile）实施从周五晚上到次日早晨的宵禁。

这场风暴导致包括德斯廷-堡沃尔顿海滩机场（Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport）在内的多个狭长地带机场周五的大部分航班停飞。与此同时，特朗普总统取消了周六前往塔斯卡卢萨（Tuscaloosa）观看佐治亚大学与阿拉巴马大学足球赛的计划。他表示不希望干扰应急响应工作。

行业专家表示，预计“伊赛亚斯”将避开墨西哥湾沿岸最大的石油工业中心，但如果停电导致炼油厂停止原油加工，燃料价格可能会上涨。

在阿拉巴马州海岸外的屏障岛——道芬岛（Dauphin Island），市长杰夫·科利尔（Jeff Collier）表示，他不认为会出现重大破坏，“但与此同时，这些情况非常多变，稍微的一点偏移，或者最后一刻强度的增加——我们必须为最坏的情况做好准备。”

与此同时，在太平洋地区，飓风“西蒙”（Simon）在周五升级为 2 级飓风，预计在周末登陆墨西哥之前将进一步增强。

热带风暴“瑞秋”（Rachel）预计将在本周末给墨西哥北部和南加州带来强风和强降雨。

“一场娱乐大众的恐怖电视节目”

[直播，见A1] 美国天主教主教会议表示，这将“进一步破坏我们国家的道德结构，并成为其人民良心上的污点”。

阿巴拉契亚州立大学刑事司法教授、《死亡国家》（Death Nation）一书作者马修·罗宾逊（Matthew Robinson）表示，他对这些计划感到“震惊”。“在我看来，这似乎是为了娱乐。”他表示，最后一次军事执行死刑是在1961年，最后一次通过枪决执行死刑是在1945年。

哈桑（Hasan）曾是一名陆军精神科医生兼少校。2009年，他携带一把带有激光瞄准器的手枪进入德克萨斯州军事基地的医疗大楼，大喊“Allahu akbar”（阿拉伯语，意为“真主至大！”）并开火，导致13人死亡，32人受伤。此后，他曾表示如果被执行死刑，他将成为一名“烈士”。

特朗普总统多年来一直是死刑的公开支持者，但此前也曾批评伊朗等地的公开处决。他已签署批准执行哈桑的死刑，但尚未对赫格塞斯（Hegseth）的计划做出回应。白宫未回应置评请求。

天主教徒副总统JD·万斯（JD Vance）周五表示，人们应该记住哈桑“残忍地谋杀了许多无辜的人”。但他也表示，他不会观看执行死刑的直播，并对该计划“是否真的会实施”表示怀疑。

在本任期就职的第一天，特朗普签署了一项行政命令，要求联邦机构恢复死刑的显著地位。今年4月，美国司法部（DOJ）宣布已采取措施实现这一目标，包括“扩大议定书”以将枪决纳入其中。

五个州允许通过枪决执行死刑：爱达荷州、密西西比州、俄克拉荷马州、南卡罗来纳州和犹他州。美国最高法院多次驳回了认为此类处决等同于“残酷且不寻常的惩罚”的申诉，而后者根据宪法第八修正案是被禁止的。南卡罗来纳州去年通过枪决执行了三名男子的死刑。

去年，当最高法院拒绝一名阿拉巴马州囚犯请求使用枪决而非氮气窒息法处决时，自由派大法官索尼娅·索托马约尔（Sonia Sotomayor）——以及大法官埃琳娜·卡根（Elena Kagan）和凯坦吉·布朗·杰克逊（Ketanji Brown Jackson）——表达了反对意见，她写道：“博伊德（Boyd）请求的是最基本的仁慈：通过枪决死去，这将在几秒钟内杀死他，而不是通过长达四分钟的痛苦窒息。宪法应当赋予他这份恩典。”

上周，田纳西州囚犯克里斯塔·派克（Christa Pike）在原本应是致命的巴比妥类药物戊巴比妥注射中幸存。近年来，其他州在执行注射死刑方面也遇到了困难。

针对赫格塞斯关于哈桑计划的大部分批评并非集中在杀人方式上，而是在于其直播行为。

死刑信息中心执行主任罗宾·M·马赫（Robin M. Maher）表示，该中心“没有关于任何处决被直播的记录”，并且“不知道有任何法规或先例允许军事处决在互联网上直播或以其他方式广泛向公众开放”。

福克斯新闻评论员

霍华德·库尔茨（Howard Kurtz）写道：“我感觉到左右两派都感到厌恶，这并非是因为杀死一名死囚——尽管在现代社会枪决显得极端——而是因为五角大楼要将其直播，将其变成一场娱乐大众的恐怖电视节目。这就是美国吗？”

埃默里大学历史学副教授、《执行自由：美国死刑的文化生活》（Executing Freedom: The Cultural Life of Capital Punishment in the United States）一书作者丹尼尔·拉尚斯（Daniel LaChance）表示，美国最后一次公开处决发生在1936年，当时一名被判定强奸的黑人男子在肯塔基州被绞死——在大多数州放弃这一做法后，肯塔基州当时仍允许公开处决。

LaChance 表示，那次执行在“所有描述中都是一场怪诞的狂欢”，并且“有点像在 20 世纪复活的角斗士比赛，人群粗鲁且大声叫喊”。他说：“那是一场惨剧。”

LaChance 指出，特朗普政府试图再次将死刑变成一场公开的奇观，这与数十年来关于该问题的思考相悖，但却符合特朗普自身关于犯罪与惩罚的特质。

“他的整个品牌就是这种民粹主义、反精英主义。当执行死刑在 20 世纪初转移到监狱深处时，它们实际上变成了由专家运行、在少数专业人士和神职人员面前进行的官僚事务，”LaChance 说。“这是对公众以其名义执行惩罚之观看权的剥夺，部分原因是有些精英认为公众无法承受这种奇观，认为他们会行为不端，认为这会产生更多混乱，而死刑的设计初衷恰恰相反：是为了产生秩序。”

法庭速写图中心人物尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（NIDAL Malik Hasan）于 2009 年在德克萨斯州胡德堡杀害 13 人，导致 32 人受伤。

对国防部长皮特·海格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）计划的批评重点不在于执行方式——枪决——而在于将杀戮过程进行直播供公众观看。 AL DRAGO 彭博社 BRIGITTE WOOSLEY 美联社

LaChance 表示，特朗普显然认为自己是在抵制精英主义和专业主义，并给予人们他们想要的东西，尽管许多学者提出的问题是，这样做会“增加人们的嗜血欲望”，还是会迫使他们感到厌恶——并最终降低对这类惩罚的支持。

耶鲁法学院教授军事司法课程的尤金·菲德尔（Eugene Fidell）表示，特朗普多年来一直公开思考用枪决处死人的问题，因此海格塞斯使用该方法的计划并不令人惊讶。然而，决定直播杀戮显然让许多人感到“沮丧”。他说：“即使是那些认命于死刑、在宗教或其他方面对死刑没有顾虑的人，对此也感到非常不安。”

菲德尔表示，“残暴”已成为特朗普政府整体的一个“运作原则”，从决定在白宫举办终极格斗（Ultimate Fighting）锦标赛，到在全国范围内采取的移民策略，以及现在计划直播执行死刑——菲德尔说，这与威慑未来的犯罪“毫无关系”。

他说：“这里存在一种病态，这与法律程序剥夺生命时应当具备的尊严完全不符。”

阿巴拉契亚州立大学的罗宾逊（Robinson）说，周五早上他的一个学生问，当孩子们像看电子游戏一样调台观看执行死刑时会发生什么，罗宾逊表示他认为他们确实会这么做。他说这个想法令人震惊——而且不仅仅是对他而言。

“我想世界其他地方，文明世界，在看到这一点后会有和我一样的反应，”他说。“他们会感到震惊。”

弗吉尼亚州一县就计划建设的拱门提起诉讼

ALEX WONG Getty Images 7月1日，位于华盛顿国家广场上总统计划建设的凯旋门（Triumphal Arch）的复制品。

华盛顿 —— 弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿县委员会（Arlington County Board）周四提起诉讼，反对建设凯旋门，成为第一个针对特朗普总统计划建设的纪念碑采取法律行动的政府机构。

该诉讼提交至弗吉尼亚州东区法院，批评计划在纪念圆环（Memorial Circle）开展的项目在未经过完整审查程序的情况下推进速度过快。

诉讼称：“负责纪念圆环等国家公园土地项目的机构——国家公园管理局，正全速推进导致地面破坏的施工。尽管该机构声称尚未就建设拱门做出最终决定，并自称正处于常规的决策过程中，但这种仓促的流程似乎只是一个借口，旨在为按照总统反复下达的指令建设拱门提供正当理由。”

诉讼请求停止“该机构在建设拱门方面狂热的进度”，以确保遵守《国家环境政策法》的要求，并进行适当的分析和测试。

阿灵顿县委员会主席马特·德·费兰蒂（Matt de Ferranti）在声明中表示：“阿灵顿县委员会提起此次诉讼，是因为我们的社区将从这个令人震惊且违法的拟议项目中遭受最大的损失。”他补充说，该县在审查过程中一直秉持诚意，并指出该项目将给该县及其居民带来“严重、独特且广泛的负面影响”，但这些影响却被忽视了。

纪念圆环位于波托马克河以西的联邦公园土地上，跨过纪念桥后紧邻阿灵顿县。

该县在诉讼中由法律倡导组织“民主前行”（Democracy Forward）代表。

白宫发言人戴维斯·英格尔（Davis Ingle）表示，特朗普政府和白宫一直“严格遵守所有程序和法律要求，并确信这起毫无根据且旨在拖延的诉讼将被驳回”。

他补充说，这座拱门将成为世界上最标志性的地标之一。“它将提升退伍军人、阵亡者家属以及所有美国人在阿灵顿国家公墓的参观体验。”

在此诉讼提起的一天前，空乘人员协会-CWA主席萨拉·尼尔森（Sara Nelson）表达了担忧，认为这座250英尺高的拱门加剧了多项安全问题；她表示，自2025年1月波托马克河上空发生导致67人死亡的致命坠机事故以来，这些问题一直未得到解决。尼尔森还批评了特朗普将拱门打造为“顶级军事综合体”的计划，称其能够部署无人机和狙击手并储存弹药。

尽管该拱门已获得美国美术委员会（U.S. Commission of Fine Arts）的初步批准（该委员会成员均由特朗普任命），但三名退伍军人和一名建筑历史学家已在华盛顿联邦法院提起诉讼，称该项目需要获得国会批准。该诉讼的法官表示，政府在开展任何与拱门建设相关或为其做准备的活动之前，必须提前48小时通知法院。

在特朗普重塑这座城市的过程中，这座拱门是他在华盛顿周边开展的多个项目之一，这些项目涵盖了从翻修一座著名的公共高尔夫球场，到威胁拆除约翰·F·肯尼迪表演艺术中心。

佛罗里达州在未给出解释的情况下取消死刑执行

作者：大卫·费舍尔（David Fischer）

迈阿密 —— 佛罗里达州州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯（Ron DeSantis）在就任以来首次撤回死刑执行令，在一名男子原定于美国最繁忙的死刑执行室被注射致死药剂前几天，取消了对其的死刑执行。

这位共和党州长在其最后一个任期内积极地使用死刑。他周四签署了一封信函，撤回对威廉·李·汤普森（William Lee Thompson）的死刑执行令。这名 74 岁的囚犯原定于周二因 1976 年绑架并谋杀萨莉·伊韦斯特（Sally Ivester）而被执行死刑。

原定于同一天执行的第二起佛罗里达州死刑仍将照常进行。63 岁的詹姆斯·罗伯逊（James Robertson）对一级谋杀罪认罪，并放弃了所有上诉。2008 年，在两人同为迈尔斯堡（Fort Myers）以北的夏洛特惩教机构（Charlotte Correctional Institution）的室友期间，他勒死了弗兰克·哈特（Frank Hart）。罗伯逊告诉调查人员，他杀死对方是为了能被转移到死囚牢。

德桑蒂斯在信中没有提供撤回汤普森死刑执行令的原因，但上个月曾暂时暂停其执行，以等待精神评估。然而，佛罗里达州监狱官员此前仍在为下周可能执行汤普森的死刑做准备。

汤普森的律师布里·莱西（Bri Lacy）表示，他们对这一结果感到宽慰。

“汤普森先生患有认知障碍且健康状况在恶化 —— 在死刑即将执行的情况下，这两点都令人深感担忧，”莱西在电子邮件中写道。“既然汤普森先生不再处于死刑执行令之下，我们希望佛罗里达州惩教局（FDOC）能将其转移到合适的医疗机构，并提供他所需的护理。”

此举发生在美国对死刑关注度日益提高之际。

在田纳西州，克里斯塔·派克（Christa Pike）上周在接受了两剂致死剂量的戊巴比妥后，在一次死刑执行尝试中幸存。周四，五角大楼宣布，对胡德堡枪击案凶手尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（Nidal Malik Hasan）的行刑队执行过程将进行直播。

汤普森将继续留在佛罗里达州的死囚牢中，未来可能会有新的死刑执行令签署。

德桑蒂斯的一位发言人没有立即回复寻求评论的电子邮件。

佛罗里达州去年执行了 19 起死刑，创下了该州自 1976 年恢复死刑以来的记录。7 月，佛罗里达州成为近十年来首个在一天内执行两名囚犯死刑的州。

总统重启将库克移出美联储的努力

作者：克里斯托弗·鲁加伯（CHRISTOPHER RUGABER）

华盛顿 —— 特朗普总统周五通过成立一个“调查委员会”来调查美联储理事丽莎·库克（Lisa Cook）在抵押贷款申请中涉嫌作虚假陈述的指控，从而开启了将其解雇努力的新篇章。

特朗普在一份书面备忘录中表示，此次调查将包括 11 月 5 日在白宫举行的一场听证会，库克“应当”出席并回答委员会的提问。备忘录称，听证会将不对外公开，但将公布记录文本。

特朗普要求库克在委员会面前作证的这一非同寻常的要求，可能会再次引发人们对美联储独立性受威胁的担忧。总统曾要求央行降低关键利率，但就在上个月，在特朗普今年早些时候任命的主席凯文·沃什（Kevin Warsh）的领导下，美联储反而提高了利率。

特朗普试图将库克从美联储由 5 人组成的理事会中解雇，这在央行 113 年的历史上，是首次出现总统寻求撤换美联储理事的情况。

“作为总统，我的职责是确保法律得到忠实执行，包括解雇那些不能被信任地讲述真相并遵守法律的下属，”特朗普在备忘录中写道。

库克的律师阿比·洛威尔（Abbe Lowell）和诺姆·艾森（Norm Eisen）表示，他们正在考虑让库克出席 11 月 5 日的听证会。

“我们已经与白宫接触，以评估所提议的程序是否有可能是真实的，而不仅仅是一个走形式的勾选练习，”洛威尔和艾森在一份声明中表示。“库克理事欢迎有机会陈述事实，以便她能洗清自己的名声，并证明解雇她没有法律依据。”

特朗普最初在 2025 年 8 月试图解雇库克，理由是她涉嫌抵押贷款欺诈，在 2021 年的抵押贷款申请中将两处房产申报为她的“主要”住所。主要住所的抵押贷款通常可以获得较低的利率或其他优惠条款。

马克·希费尔本（MARK SCHIEFELBEIN）美联社 美联储理事丽莎·库克否认有任何不当行为。

洛威尔和艾森此前曾表示，库克犯了一个“无意之错”，并且在其他文件中确实将其中一处房产称为度假屋。

“无意之错并非欺诈，总统及其三分之一的内阁成员应该知道这一点，因为据报道他们也做了同样的事情，”洛威尔和艾森在 8 月份表示。

特朗普及其部分经济顾问将强制加息归咎于美联储更广泛的利率设定委员会，该委员会总共包括 12 名投票成员和 19 名官员。作为理事会成员，库克也是该委员会 12 名投票成员之一。9 月 16 日通过的加息投票结果是一致通过的。

此举是在最高法院 6 月份的一项裁决之后做出的，该裁决认定，在特朗普去年试图解雇库克后，她可以保留其职位。该裁决包含一个脚注，称只要给予她适当的通知和回应指控的机会，没有什么能阻止特朗普“再次尝试”。

库克否认有任何不当行为，且尚未被指控任何罪行。

无家可归者的动荡

特朗普政府正将资金从“住房优先”方案中转移，而该方案曾是联邦无家可归者政策的核心

作者：劳拉·昂加尔（LAURA UNGAR）和杰夫·马尔维希尔（GEOFF MULVIHILL）

肯塔基州路易斯维尔 —— 光线透过一座旧教堂的彩色玻璃窗洒进来，照亮了疲惫的男人们聚集的长白桌。约翰尼·亨德森（Johnny Henderson）很高兴能得到休息。这位 71 岁的老人只有一只手臂，患有心脏病且视力有问题，前一天晚上他睡在街头。

亨德森是圣约翰中心（St. John Center）男性日间避难所的常客。其他常客还包括一名坐在轮椅上且患有前列腺癌的曾祖父，一名患有四种精神障碍的 54 岁人士，以及一名使用助行器且佩戴着写有“跌倒风险”警告标志的医院手环的 66 岁老人。

在“住房优先”（Housing First）方案下，他们 all 都是获得政府补贴的永久公寓的潜在候选人。该模式基于这样一种信念：人们在解决其他问题之前，需要一个稳定的居住地。但这一在十多年来一直处于联邦政府政策核心的方案，在特朗普总统的政府领导下正在消失。服务提供者和倡导者表示，这场剧变威胁到了美国一些最脆弱人群的生命。

“住房就是医疗保健，”圣约翰中心执行主任拉尚·马丁（Ra'Shann Martin）说道，他的组织除了提供日间避难所外，还提供住房和外展服务。“人们无家可归的时间越长，身体就变得越脆弱。”

全美依赖联邦资金的住房组织现在不得不勉强做出调整，以遵守新的政府政策。新政策倾向于“治疗优先”（Treatment First）方案和短期“过渡性”住房 —— 他们担心这些变化会将具有极端健康风险的人重新推回街头，或让像亨德森这样的人继续留在街头。

在肯塔基州科宾（Corbin）等社区，计划中的住房项目已被取消。在加利福尼亚州圣克鲁斯县（Santa Cruz County）等地，可供无家可归者使用的住房在减少。而在路易斯维尔等城市，非营利组织正考虑将部分永久住房改为临时住房，其中包括圣约翰中心的 200 套公寓中的大部分。

美国无家可归者人数呈上升趋势

根据美国住房与城市发展部（HUD）汇总的一项估计，去年全美有近 750,000 人无家可归。这一数字较 2024 年略有下降，但比 2019 年增加了 31%。

被视为“长期无家可归”的人群比例——即患有残疾且无家可归状态持续一年或以上，或多次重复出现无家可归情况的人群——自 2019 年以来也有所上升。目前该人群约占总数的四分之一。

研究显示，总体而言，大约一半的无家可归成年人患有残疾，高达三分之二患有精神疾病，且 2 / 5 的人患有物质使用障碍。残疾、心脏病和糖尿病的发病率比普通人群高出两到三倍。

在路易斯维尔，外展专家安吉尔·西瓦多（Angel Sivado）表示，这些统计数据在她服务的人群中得到了体现，他们的生活条件使得自我照顾、就医或坚持药物治疗变得极其困难。

在最近的一天，她将一辆圣约翰（St. John）的面包车停在一家快餐店附近，然后徒步进入森林，去探访一对住在帐篷里的夫妇。随后，她和一名同事走向高速公路旁被树木环绕的营地，在汽车的低沉轰鸣声中大喊着“外展服务！”。

他们的主要工作之一是引导客户完成申请住房的流程。

“他们不仅仅是无家可归者，他们更是人，”西瓦多说，“他们是某个人的儿子，是某个人的母亲，是某个人的女儿。”

偶尔，西瓦多也能体会到胜利的喜悦。在回家之前，她停在市中心的一座立交桥下，去看望 66 岁的詹姆斯·迈尔斯（James Myers），他失明且患有充血性心力衰竭，目前正在接受前列腺癌治疗。她告诉他，他很快就能住进公寓。

“我累了。我的意思是，街头生活会把你击垮，我觉得它让我老了好几岁，”他站在他那把破旧的吉他旁说道，“我迫不及待想离开街头。”

其他人则没那么幸运。圣约翰中心的常客亨德森（Henderson）在一次火车事故中幸存，但失去了一只手臂，并导致了长达数年的阿片类药物成瘾。最近，他一直在与心脏病、眼睛问题、脊柱手术和听觉幻觉作斗争。

“我会在户外睡觉时死掉的，”他哽咽着说，“但我无处可去。”

每个走向无家可归的路径都是独特的。确定“最佳”解决方案取决于用于评判何为最佳的视角。

如果目标是减少整体无家可归人数、帮助人们进入就业市场、尽可能少地花费纳税人的钱、改善健康状况——或者仅仅是为了维持生命，那么答案可能会有所不同。

“住房优先”（Housing First）理念由纽约的一家非营利组织在 20 世纪 90 年代率先提出，并自 2013 年起成为联邦无家可归政策的核心。如今，大约有 173,000 个面向长期无家可归者的“永久支持性住房”床位，以及 235,000 个面向包括退伍军人在内的其他人群的床位。这些是配备了自愿服务的长期公寓。在扣除某些费用后，租客通常必须将其收入的 30% 用于支付房租和水电费。

研究一致表明，“住房优先”计划能让人们稳定地拥有住房。一些研究称，该计划的效果优于其他模式，包括倾向于对成瘾和严重精神疾病实施强制服务的“治疗优先”（Treatment First）模式。但关于健康结果的调查结果则不一。

去年，特朗普签署了一项行政命令，要求停止联邦政府对“住房优先”政策的支持。他提出的 2027 财年预算要求取消主要用于“住房优先”计划的联邦倡议。该政府倾向于提供最长两年的住房，在此期间，相关人员将被要求接受治疗。

“‘住房优先’辜负了我们最脆弱的群体，并助长了成瘾，”美国住房与城市发展部（HUD）在电子邮件中表示，“HUD 提出的改革旨在解决无家可归的根本原因，并推进康复、自立以及驱动问责制的竞争。”

许多“住房优先”（Housing First）政策的反对者认为，成瘾治疗和心理健康治疗等服务不应是可选的。

“这就是‘住房优先’与‘非住房优先’之间最大的区别，”西塞罗研究所（Cicero Institute）公共安全政策主任德文·库尔茨（Devon Kurtz）表示。库尔茨还担心，永久支持性住房正变成一种“一刀切的方法”，甚至包括那些更适合通过过渡性住房获得帮助的人群。

服务提供者承认，过渡性住房对某些人来说是一个不错的选择，例如那些在被驱逐后重新振作的人。但他们表示，大多数长期无家可归的人无法在两年内理顺生活，并且可能会再次陷入无家可归的境地。

“如果你想逐步减少由联邦政府资助的社会服务，那没问题，”提供永久性和过渡性住房的路易斯维尔圣文森特·德·保罗会（St. Vincent de Paul Louisville）首席执行官兼执行主任詹妮弗·克拉克（Jennifer Clark）说道，“但你不能进行大规模的剧烈变革和大幅削减，对一切采取‘砍掉’的方式，然后认为这对一些真正需要帮助的人不会产生后果。”

58岁的约翰·富兰克林（John Franklin）表示，过渡性住房对他不起作用。他曾在街头度过了近14年，与严重的酒精依赖作斗争，花了很长时间才适应正常生活。作为一名喉癌幸存者且患有心力衰竭，他现在依靠残疾补贴生活，无法想象必须全额支付房费或在街头生存的情况。

“我撑不下去的，”富兰克林说。他在路易斯维尔郊区的一套永久支持性公寓里与他的橙色虎斑猫莫（Moe）共同生活，“这里是我的避风港。”

提供住房及其他援助

菲利普·西夫金（Phillip Sieveking）的永久支持性公寓门外的欢迎垫上写着“甜蜜之家”，在经历了数年流浪生活后，这句话对他而言弥足珍贵。

西夫金住在圣约翰·希汉登陆地（St. John's Sheehan Landing），这是一个拥有 80 套带家具的一居室公寓的综合体，还设有诊所空间、食品储藏室、会议室和一个社区花园，他将大部分业余时间用于打理花园。

这位前厨师患有糖尿病，但在无家可归期间未能得到妥善治疗。医生不得不截除了他一条腿的一部分。在最近的一个早晨，他戴上假肢，拿起拐杖，缓慢地走向花园，查看玫瑰、向日葵和蔬菜的情况。

他将自己的改变归功于个案管理师，对方鼓励他坚持医疗护理，并指导他办理残障补贴和食品补贴的申请流程。他还参加综合体内的会议，包括一场居民在进行艺术创作的同时讨论健康与戒瘾的会议。

“他们帮我，你知道的，从一个无家可归者变成了社会的一员，”47 岁的西夫金说道，“我觉得能在这里生活很幸运。”

在新泽西州，塔蒂亚娜·维莱兹（Tatiana Velez）自 2021 年起一直住在永久支持性住房中，此前她不久与卡姆登联盟（Camden Coalition）取得了联系，该组织为具有复杂健康和社会需求的人群提供服务。

因抢劫罪在监狱中度过 18 年后，她曾在废弃建筑中生活，并与阿片类药物作斗争数年。维莱兹从未签署过租赁合同，也没有开过银行账户，直到 30 多岁后期，她得知自己怀孕了，并决定准备做出改变。

“我以前不知道有遮风挡雨的屋顶是什么感觉，也不知道支付账单是什么感觉，”维莱兹说道，她目前领取针对心理和教育残障的残障补贴。

现在，她与 5 岁的女儿以及一只名为“雪球”的曾流浪的猫共同住在郊区的一套一楼公寓里。墙上挂着一张学前班毕业证书。

政策变动冲击社区

在住房与城市发展部（HUD）试图重新调整其针对无家可归者的资助计划，以使其符合政府青睐的政策后，一个由地方政府和无家可归者倡导者组成的联盟提起诉讼。一名联邦法官此前支持了他们的主张。但本月，一家上诉法院表示政府可以继续推进。

与此同时，特朗普提出的预算方案要求取消一项耗资 $4-billion 的“连续护理”（Continuum of Care）计划，该计划在 2024 年向 6,500 个项目提供了资金。当时，超过 60% 的资金用于永久支持性住房，且大部分用于维持现有工作。仅有 1% 的资金用于过渡性住房。

特朗普拟议的变动使得无家可归者组织措手不及，他们正竭力研究如何调整住房策略，以便能够继续获得联邦资金。

“过去两年就像是一场心理战，我们试图弄清楚如何应对这些迫在眉睫的变动，”圣约翰（St. John）机构负责人马丁说道。

圣克鲁兹县住房健康负责人罗伯特·拉特纳（Robert Ratner）博士表示，失去永久支持性住房资金将加剧由另一项联邦计划——疫情时期的紧急住房券——逐步退出所引发的问题。那些即将失去住房券的人被优先安排进入可用住房，这意味着该县现在无法帮助那么多无家可归者。

丹佛的德洛丽丝项目（Delores Project）也出现了类似的动态，该项目服务于女性以及跨性别和非二元性别者。项目负责人预计，已经在其园区内获得永久住房的人员将会留下来，因为他们无法获得搬出至社区的住房券。这将意味着新人的名额会减少。

在路易斯安那州，该州住房机构申请将联邦资金从租金补贴转向建立一个拥有 200 张床位的避难所，且该避难所对参与者有严格的要求。这一尝试被负责资金管理的地方联盟否决，但当地住房倡导者担心这预示着未来的趋势。

一些社区看到计划中的项目被取消。18 个月来，“美国志愿者协会中西部分会”（Volunteers of America Mid-States）与东肯塔基大学等机构合作，在科宾（Corbin）开展一个永久支持性住房项目，该项目原计划包括儿童护理和大学课程机会。“那个项目现在已经夭折了，”首席执行官詹妮弗·汉考克（Jennifer Hancock）说道。

许多非营利组织领导人感到被迫转向过渡性住房。在路易斯维尔，圣文森特·德·保罗（St. Vincent de Paul）和凤凰健康中心——无家可归者医疗保健中心（Family Health Centers-Phoenix Health Care for the Homeless）正考虑将部分永久支持性住房公寓转换为过渡性单元。圣约翰机构在将其 120 套社区公寓转换为过渡性住房后，将仅剩下希汉登陆地（Sheehan Landing）。

对于像亨德森这样的人来说，结果是什么？随着年龄增长和病情恶化，他们在街头流浪的时间将更长。

“住房办公室的那位女士告诉我，她说：‘亨德森先生，你的心脏里装了支架。你只有一只眼睛和一只手臂。总得得发生点什么才能帮你。’”

但他说，在“生命只剩下一点点”的情况下，这件事可能无法及时发生。

航班遭遇严重湍流导致9人受伤，被迫紧急降落

作者：Josh Funk

周五，一架哥伦比亚航空（Avianca）航班遭遇严重湍流，被迫在迈阿密紧急降落，导致9人受伤。

迈阿密-戴德消防救援局表示，该飞机于周五凌晨3点后不久降落，一名伤势严重的人员被紧急送往创伤中心，另有七人由救护车送往当地医院。航空公司表示，共有9人（包括3名机组人员和6名乘客）受到湍流影响。

美国联邦航空管理局（FAA）表示，这架空客A320客机当时正从哥伦比亚麦德林飞往纽约约翰·F·肯尼迪国际机场，随后被迫转向迈阿密。

哥伦比亚航空表示，未受伤的乘客已重新预订其他航班，以继续前往纽约的行程。该航空公司表示，“客户和员工的安全是，并将始终是我们运营的基石。”

飞行过程中由湍流导致严重受伤的情况较为罕见，但科学家表示，随着气候变化改变喷流，这种情况可能会变得更加普遍。国际航空运输协会（IATA）表示，去年其收到的关于湍流事件的报告数量激增了25%以上。

去年夏天，一架达美航空（Delta Air Lines）航班在怀俄明州上空遭遇雷暴引起的湍流，导致24人被送往医院。国家运输安全委员会（NTSB）表示，乘客和乘务员被甩到天花板上，随后又被摔回地板，接着再次被弹起。当时安全带指示灯处于关闭状态，因此部分乘客正站起身，且机组正在提供饮品，此时飞机遭遇了湍流。

至少20名乘客就该事件对达美航空提起诉讼，认为航空公司本可以避开该恶劣天气。

FAA建议乘客尽可能全程系好安全带，以防止意外湍流带来的伤害。

GENARO MOLINA 洛杉矶时报

美国对世界法庭实施新制裁

美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥（周三在雅典出现）宣布的制裁措施引发了谴责。

[接 A1 页 ICC 报道]

一份声明称：“这是对法治以及国际法律秩序基石的攻击，它打击了一个简单的原则，即没有任何人凌驾于法律之上。”

法院院长、美国盟友日本公民赤根智子（Tomoko Akane）也为法院辩护。她在声明中表示：“这不仅仅是为了捍卫一个单一的机构，而是为了维护基于法治的国际秩序。”

联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯（António Guterres）的发言人斯特凡·杜贾里克（Stephane Dujarric）谴责了美国对国际刑事法院（ICC）的制裁，称这一决定给“我们共同追求的国际刑事司法带来了沉重打击”。

杜贾里克在声明中表示：“对国际罪行追究责任并为受害者提供司法公正，是我们对和平、安全、人权和基本自由的全球承诺之核心。”

鲁比奥表示，美国的盟友应当加入美国的行动。他说：“如果他们不加入，美国将继续其瓦解 ICC 的行动，将其逐一拆除，直到美国人不再受到威胁为止。”

美国盟友政府的初步反应绝大多数是负面的。

加拿大、丹麦、德国、法国、意大利、日本、荷兰和英国在一份联合声明中表示：“作为 ICC 的坚定支持者，我们对美国宣布将对该法院实施制裁感到遗憾并强烈反对。”

声明称：“我们将继续共同努力支持法院至关重要的工作，维护基于规则的国际体系，并推进问责制。”八个签署国中有七个是北约成员国，而日本与美国拥有单独的条约同盟关系。

人权组织也谴责了美国的举动，并呼吁各国予以反对。

人权观察（Human Rights Watch）执行主任菲利普·博洛皮翁（Philippe Bolopion）表示：“创建 ICC 是为了确保没有任何人，无论多么强大，能凌驾于法律之上。重视人权和问责制的政府应当谴责这一令人愤慨的举动，并迅速采取行动保护 ICC。”

大赦国际（Amnesty International）高级主任埃里卡·格瓦拉-罗萨斯（Erika Guevara-Rosas）表示：“这次生存威胁式的攻击必须失败。各国必须采取具体行动来抵制这些措施的实施，并积极保护法院。”

法院所在地荷兰已为此举动准备了数周。减轻制裁的一种可能措施是欧盟的“阻断条例”（blocking statute），该条例可用于防止欧洲公司遵守美国措施，从而保护欧洲法院工作人员。

欧盟表示，其打算与 ICC 合作并采取“任何必要措施”以确保其能够继续工作。荷兰总理罗布·杰滕（Rob Jetten）告诉记者，他对制裁感到失望，但很高兴“过去几个月的所有外交努力都取得了成效”，确保了制裁不会立即生效。

今年已有多个国家退出该法院，包括委内瑞拉和乍得。南太平洋岛国瑙鲁（Naoero）是最近宣布退出的一国。

美国在历任总统政府领导下，自 ICC 成立以来一直对其持批评态度。

克林顿政府签署了创建该法庭的《罗马规约》，但从未将该条约提交参议院批准，理由是担心这可能会侵犯美国主权。

美国在乔治·W·布什总统的第一任期之初“撤回”了对《罗马规约》的签署，但在该法院于2002年成立后承认了其存在，并发起了一场全球推动，旨在让成员国签署豁免协议，从而使美国士兵、官员及其他人员免于被移交给国际刑事法院（ICC）起诉。

在奥巴马总统任职期间，美国对国际刑事法院的敌对政策有所缓解，华盛顿向该法院的调查人员提供了情报和其他信息，以协助潜在的起诉工作，其中最显著的是针对乌干达反政府武装领导人约瑟夫·科尼的起诉。

在特朗普的第一任期内，美国重新转向对抗方式，并对国际刑事法院的个别官员实施了制裁，尽管其规模均不及周五采取的措施那样广泛。

ShadeLA 扩大该地区的遮荫方案

[接 A1 页“遮荫”报道] 街道照明。

为了应对酷暑而快速搭建一些遮阳篷似乎显而易见。但德古兹曼（De Guzman）表示，在遮荫方面，该市在历史上几乎完全专注于植树。ShadeLA 正在推动一项战略转变，将快速的临时遮荫（如弹出式遮阳篷和帐篷）以及永久性遮荫结构（如公交候车亭）纳入其中，以填补树木无法生长区域的空白。

“树木仍然是我们最喜爱且首选的绿化方式，因为它们带来了建筑基础设施无法提供的多种益处，”加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）的合作推广研究员德古兹曼说道。“但我们也充分意识到，在某些社区，由于缺乏空间，植树根本无法实施。”此外，树木生长需要很长时间。该市城市林业部门持续的预算削减，加上迅速增强的热浪，促使倡导者们寻找其他解决方案。

从理论上讲，遮阳篷、雨篷和其他形式的“建筑遮荫”可以立即搭建，并且仍能将地表温度降低数十度。

它们不像树木那样通过释放水蒸气来主动冷却空气，但如果使用合适的材料，它们可以阻挡阳光照射到地面，使空间感觉更凉爽。

这些设施也一直存在，是我们遮荫基因的一部分。记者萨姆·布洛赫（Sam Bloch）在他的书《遮荫：被遗忘的自然资源的承诺》（Shade: The Promise of a Forgotten Natural Resource）中写道，地中海城市自古罗马时代起就有在购物区和公共生活中心搭建柱廊和拱廊的传统，以使行人感到凉爽。布洛赫说：“几百年前西班牙人第一次来到洛杉矶时，也采取了类似做法。”

但随着空调的出现、让人们远离街道的汽车，以及更难搭建遮荫设施的宽阔大道，我们失去了这项艺术。重新引入建筑遮荫的尝试包括在整个洛杉矶范围内长期延迟部署的公交候车亭，以及 2023 年被广泛嘲讽的“La Sombrita”试点计划——在该计划中，市交通部门搭建了一些穿孔金属片，其遮荫效果几乎与电线杆相当。

如今在洛杉矶，正午时分来自树木和建筑结构的平均遮荫率仅为 24%。在贫困率较高且有色人种较多的社区，遮荫率更低。

人造遮荫在城市的个别小区域确实会出现：餐厅外的遮阳伞、秋千上方设有防紫外线遮阳篷的操场，或者停车场设有雨篷的医疗诊所。

但在不同管辖区和机构之间办理许可手续非常复杂，而且在公共空间中没有

一名骑行者走过胡佛娱乐中心（Hoover Recreation Center）的遮荫操场。

一种统一且简化的实现方式。“在整个洛杉矶，植树有一套标准流程，但我们还没有一套针对建筑遮荫的路线图，”ShadeLA 的另一位共同负责人、南加州大学（USC）Dornsife 公共交流中心气候与可持续发展总监米歇尔·巴顿（Michelle Barton）说道。

为此，该团体正在推动政策变革，并开展其他小型试点，以帮助该市在 2028 年奥运会之前快速部署遮荫设施。去年，它与洛杉矶地铁（Los Angeles Metro）举办了一场学生设计比赛，最终在英格尔伍德市中心站（Downtown Inglewood station）外搭建了一个临时遮荫结构。在世界杯期间，它在南洛杉矶的哈佛公园（Harvard Park）搭建了一个大型弹出式帐篷，随后市公园工作人员将其移至其他地方使用。目前，该团体正寻求建立一个此类帐篷的借用库。

布洛赫表示，上周末在博览公园（Exposition Park）进行的试点是市长埃里克·加塞蒂（Eric Garcetti）任期内讨论过但从未付诸实施的一个想法的“概念验证”。

“它们在降温方面的效果没有树那么好，但遮阳帆在某种程度上具有树木永远不具备的灵活性，”布洛赫说道。“如果市政府知道接下来一周会很热，就可以把它们挂起来，然后在那之后再拆掉……对于那些试图快速实现遮阳的场所来说，这应该是一个极具吸引力的选择。”

信徒重返美国最古老的黑人教堂之一

一座建于1776年的建筑在重建后将弗吉尼亚州社区团结在一起。

作者：南希·江（NANCY JIANG）

弗吉尼亚州威廉斯堡 —— 周五，美国最古老的黑人教堂之一的重建仪式举行并受到庆祝。在该教堂建立之初，信徒们在弗吉尼亚州建造集会所之前曾秘密集会。

数百名居民聚集在一起，为威廉斯堡第一浸信会教堂（First Baptist Church of Williamsburg）的原址举行社区范围的重新奉献仪式。该教堂由被奴役的以及自由的非裔美国人在1776年建立，旨在反抗禁止他们集会的法律。

1805年，原教区居民利用回收的砖块和搜集到的材料建造了教堂建筑，被称为“非洲浸信会集会所”（African Baptist Meeting House）。1834年的一场龙卷风摧毁了教堂，该教堂于1856年重建。一个世纪后，由于该建筑与当时小镇的18世纪美学风格不符，活历史博物馆“殖民威廉斯堡基金会”（Colonial Williamsburg Foundation）将其改造成了停车场。

此后，这座16英尺乘32英尺的教堂被重建。此前，考古学家在2021年发现了教堂的原始地基以及62座与该会众相关的坟墓。

第一浸信会教堂的牧师雷金纳德·F·戴维斯（Reginald F. Davis）周五告诉美联社：“今天的意义和它所展示的是，黑人历史就是美国历史，我们是全国其他地区的榜样。”

戴维斯表示：“一座历史可以追溯到《独立宣言》签署时期的教堂，你无法将我们从美国历史中抹去，因为我们在国家的开端和形成过程中一直存在。”戴维斯目前领导着一个拥有215名成员的会众，他们在位于苏格兰街的一座20世纪教堂中礼拜，距离原址不到一英里。

几十年来，殖民威廉斯堡基金会一直没有讲述这座教堂作为非裔美国信仰传统先驱的历史。18世纪居住在威廉斯堡的2,000多人中，超过一半是黑人，其中只有少数是自由身。但近年来，该博物馆恢复了教堂的传统，首先便是周五举行的建筑250周年庆典。

殖民威廉斯堡基金会的社区参与经理珍妮丝·卡纳代（Janice Canaday）表示：“我想让他们知道我们一直在这里。当殖民威廉斯堡基金会第一次开门、在修复期间，甚至在那之前，我们有时就在场，但无法发声。”

她说：“这是一次夺回，是对叙事权的夺回。”

从过去到现在

周五，活动以一场游行开始，象征着这个历史悠久的会众如何延续几代人为教育、信仰和自由而战。

在戴维斯的祈祷以及弗吉尼亚州参议员玛米·洛克（Mamie Locke）和博物馆讲解员詹姆斯·英格拉姆（James Ingram）发表讲话之前，拿骚街纪念合唱团（Nassau Street Remembrance Choir）的表演奠定了基调。英格拉姆在26年间一直扮演高万·潘弗莱特（Gowan Pamphlet），后者是原教堂建筑建成时的第一浸信会牧师。

英格拉姆去年告诉美联社，潘弗莱特是“像弗雷德里克·道格拉斯（Frederick Douglass）这样的人的先驱，而道格拉斯又是像马丁·路德·金（Martin Luther King Jr.）这样的人的先驱”。

潘弗莱特曾是一名被奴役的酒馆工人，在法律禁止非裔美国人大规模集会（因担心奴隶起义）的情况下，他宣讲平等。英格拉姆将接力棒交给了新的潘弗莱特扮演者布兰登·李（Brandon Lee），后者在奉献仪式上首次亮相。

“我们简直太欣喜了”

除了发现原教堂的地基外，考古学家还挖掘出了 62 名社区成员的坟墓。对三组遗骸进行的 DNA 检测和骨骼分析将其与非洲浸信会礼拜堂（African Baptist Meeting House）的会众联系了起来。

但口述传统是此次发现的首个线索，关于祖先被埋葬在该地区的传说引导了此次搜寻。

“我们知道这座建筑就在这里，并且知道后面可能有墓地，”殖民地威廉斯堡（Colonial Williamsburg）建筑保护与研究主任詹妮弗·威尔科斯基（Jennifer Wilkoski）说道。

当教堂的原始结构在 2021 年被发现时，戴维斯（Davis）称其为“对一个民族人性的一次重新发现”。

“我们简直太欣喜了，那些曾经被埋葬并被遗忘的人们，现在被挖掘出来，并得到了作为人类应有的认可，”他说。“在我们的历史中有如此多事物被抹除的情况下，现在是一个揭示我们历史的绝佳时机。”

建设工作已接近尾声

这座在原址上重建的礼拜堂保留了其原始特征。考古学家和殖民地威廉斯堡的建设团队使用松木和白橡木构建了这座新教堂，并还原了诸如原始半圆形砖阶等细节。

威尔科斯基表示，原教堂的建筑材料证明了会众的随机应变能力，其中可能包括拥有建造教堂所需技能的木匠。

现代翻新工程包括一套用于应对弗吉尼亚州炎热夏季的 HVAC（暖通空调）系统、一张用于讲道的翻新祭坛桌，以及百叶窗和手工吹制玻璃窗。去年，殖民地威廉斯堡曾考虑采用无玻璃窗，但随后为了安装冷却 HVAC 系统而不得不重新考虑。

“这不是教堂的彩色玻璃，但我们称之为修复玻璃，就像 18 世纪和 19 世纪初那样的手工制品，”威尔科斯基说。

教堂的收尾工作将在接下来的几个月内完成，其中将包括一个符合 ADA（美国残疾人法案）标准的无障碍坡道。

戴维斯表示，这座礼拜堂建筑是对“我们这些仍在努力让美国成为一个更完美联邦的人”迟到已久的认可。

福克斯新闻记者领衔争取新闻自由之战

曾遭到特朗普攻击的杰奎·海因里希，如今在为她的网络竞争对手们而战。

即便是在特朗普总统青睐的媒体机构中，福克斯新闻（Fox News）也未能免于被他用来形容所有他不喜欢的女性的惯用词汇。

“她可以非常刻薄，”这就是特朗普最近对这家保守派倾向网络的资深白宫记者杰奎·海因里希的描述。

总统从不掩饰，他也曾对她的配偶——宾夕法尼亚州共和党温和派众议员布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克（Brian Fitzpatrick）发表过严厉措辞。“她的丈夫一直对我投票反对，”特朗普曾说，“你能想象吗？”

这种双管齐下的攻击并没有困扰海因里希，她作为白宫记者协会（WHCA）主席，正领衔反对特朗普对 CNN、MS NOW 和 Politico 的禁令。当特朗普在 7 月的白宫记者协会晚宴上发表侮辱性言论时，海因里希只是耸了耸肩，微笑着面对。

“你进入新闻业并不是为了让你报道的对象喜欢你，”海因里希在最近的一次电话采访中表示，“只要我在履行我的职责——获取故事并公正、完整地讲述它，其余的事情就真的不需要我操心。这可能不是我最后一次让他不快。不过，总统仍然接听我的电话。”

随着海因里希在与白宫关于新闻自由的最新博弈中传递公开和私下的信息，她的韧性正面临考验。特朗普禁止这三家媒体进入白宫区域，因为他认为这些媒体一直在进行负面报道。

一名联邦法官发布了临时禁令以阻止这一举措，称其为观点歧视，且违反了这些媒体的宪法第一修正案权利。但政府继续阻止 CNN 进入时刻跟随总统的新闻池。更多的法庭听证会将在后续举行。

在过去的 10 天里，海因里希发表了谴责禁令的公开声明，监督法律程序，并与白宫进行秘密沟通，试图让特朗普撤销决定。在报道总统以及共同主持周末节目《周日简报》（The Sunday Briefing）之余，这成了她的第二份工作。

高管和记者在私下表示，由一名来自特朗普友好媒体的人员领导该组织，以恢复那些被总统视为敌对媒体的记者证，是非常有帮助的。白宫记者协会的存在是为了维护并促进其来自 300 家新闻机构的 900 名成员进入白宫的渠道。

但对于海因里希来说，第一修正案的论点超越任何媒体机构的政治倾向，这是符合逻辑的。如果特朗普的禁令维持原判，那么下次民主党人进入椭圆形办公室时，保守派新闻机构可能会发现自己面临类似的限制。

“当你赋予总统选择谁可以向他们提问的权力时，你就缩小了空间，”海因里希说，“它缩小了视角，并将同样的权力移交给下一届政府，而他们将只让自己被那些赞同、支持或对其行为友好的人包围。”

进步派倾向的 MS NOW 的共同主持人、前白宫记者协会主席尤金·丹尼尔斯（Eugene Daniels）表示，在他任职期间，来自福克斯新闻和更偏右的 Newsmax 的组织成员一直支持第一修正案和新闻准入问题。

“我们的许多新闻机构在内心深处明白，在某个时间点，情况可能会反过来，”丹尼尔斯说，“这种团结至关重要。”

丹尼尔斯与海因里希也相识多年，两人曾在科罗拉多州科罗拉多斯普林斯的一家电视台共事，他认为她完全有能力推动白宫记者协会的事业。

“她对白宫记者在报道任何一位总统时所扮演的角色都有清醒的认识，”他说。“她非常强韧，自从我们相识以来一直如此。在坚持正确的事情方面，她10 toes down（绝不退缩）。”

海因里希对新闻原则的尊重甚至延伸到了她的个人生活中。五年前，当菲茨帕特里克第一次邀请她约会时，他不得不等待好几周才得到答复。海因里希向她的福克斯新闻（Fox News）上司确认，尽管她不再负责报道国会，但与一名民选官员约会是否构成利益冲突。

“他非常有耐心，”海因里希说。这对夫妇于6月在纽约的圣帕特里克大教堂结婚。

海因里希是福克斯新闻——该频道本周将迎来开播30周年——的一批记者之一，他们的报道并不遵循该频道评论员和主持人的倾向。

2020年，在特朗普就其输给乔·拜登的选举发表关于选票欺诈的虚假主张时，海因里希对此进行了报道，而该网络的评论员、主持人及嘉宾则继续对选举结果表示怀疑。她的报道激怒了塔克·卡尔森和肖恩·汉尼蒂等主持人，他们担心她的工作会疏远那些忠于总统的观众。

消息人士称 Netflix 计划裁员 5%

据知情人士透露，由于这家流媒体巨头面临日益激烈的竞争以及留住订阅用户的压力， 计划进行一轮大规模裁员。

美泰建设水上乐园以应对芭比娃娃销售下滑

BRIAN VAN DER BRUG 洛杉矶时报 2023年“芭本海默”的夏天帮助美泰（Mattel）的芭比产品线重新激发了人们的热情。

作者：ELLA CHAKARIAN

随着芭比娃娃销售额的下滑，美泰正寻求利用其角色和游戏来建立一个新的收入来源：水上乐园。

这家位于埃尔塞贡多（El Segundo）的公司一直试图寻找更多方法，将其备受喜爱的玩具阵容转化为更大的盈利点。前首席执行官伊农·克雷兹（Ynon Kreiz）曾主导一项旨在提升美泰知识产权收益的计划，但在投资者感到失望之际，他刚刚离职。

随着前康泰纳仕（Condé Nast）首席执行官罗杰·林奇（Roger Lynch）接任美泰掌门人，他继承了一套正处于困境的战略，即旨在将美泰的玩具和游戏组合转化为娱乐特许经营权和体验项目，从而在玩具货架之外产生收入。

为了减少对芭比的依赖，美泰最新的赌注之一是其首个“Wonder室内水上乐园”，计划于2027年底在内布拉斯加州的贝尔维尤（Bellevue）开业。

该公园预计占地约100,000平方英尺，并配备可伸缩屋顶以实现全年运营。目前，该项目正在一个旨在促进奥马哈（Omaha）南部郊区旅游业的综合用途区域内建设。

计划中的部分景点包括一个芭比活动池和一个风火轮（Hot Wheels）滑道塔。

公园还将设有一条漂流河，游客可以漂浮在由美泰游戏（Mattel Games）启发而设计的场景中，包括UNO、拳击机器人（Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots）和神奇8号球（Magic 8 Ball）。

美泰的一位发言人表示，公司正在探索将此类互动体验带到“传统目的地市场之外”的机会。

在内布拉斯加州以外，该公司还计划在佛罗里达州、伊利诺伊州和北卡罗来纳州建设水上乐园。

“我们看到了一个真正的机会，可以将传统上集中在主-

要市场的那种沉浸式娱乐，以一种可扩展的、全年运营的形式带给更多社区，”美泰首席消费者产品与体验官纳塔莉亚·普雷莫维奇（Natalia Premovic）在新闻稿中表示。

美泰在公园领域的其他野心起步较为坎坷。

在亚利桑那州，首个美泰冒险公园（Mattel Adventure Park）的原开发商退出了该项目，由一家相邻的度假村接手。

在堪萨斯州，一个主题公园原定于2026年亮相，但获得了正式的运营期限延期，至2031年5月。

这家玩具公司正在尝试不同的方法，希望能够复制2023年电影《芭比》的巨大成功。

这部构成了“芭本海默”夏天有趣的一半的电影，在票房上获得了近15 亿美元 billion的收入，并重新激发了人们对这个拥有60多年历史的芭比娃娃的热情，带动了超过$150 million的娃娃及其他相关产品的销售。

今年，公司希望通过一部与其肌肉动作人偶“宇宙巨匠”（Masters of the Universe）相关的电影再次迎来收入激增。

然而，这部电影未能像《芭比》那样主导夏季市场。尽管制作预算约为1.7亿美元，但其全球票房收入不足1.2亿美元。

在第二季度，美泰报告净亏损$1800 万，而去年同期净利润为$53.400 万，尽管销售额有所增长。净销售额增长了10%，但玩具产品的表现参差不齐。

娃娃类产品的账单金额下降了5%，其中芭比的总账单金额下降了16%。由于费雪价格（Fisher-Price）需求下降，婴儿、幼儿和学前儿童产品的账单金额下降了11%。

风火轮、游戏和动作人偶的销售额有所增长。

克雷兹的离职正值投资者对公司的战略和整体表现日益失去耐心之际。

由于担心公司计划如何驱动增长，美泰股价今年一度下跌超过35%，但在近期出现潜在收购传闻后，股价反弹超过30%。

周五，股价上涨约1%，交易价格在$17附近。

但海因里希表示，在2023年2月的一份法律摘要披露这些对话之前，她对此并不知情。（卡尔森在两个月后被福克斯新闻解雇。）自2020年以来，她已被晋升四次。

“我的上司从未干涉我的报道，”她说道。

37岁的海因里希曾在乔治·华盛顿大学学习国际事务，并希望在国务院发展职业生涯，但随后在华盛顿的MSNBC和WRC-TV实习，引导她走上了新闻业道路。在几家地方电视台工作后，她于2018年成为福克斯新闻在纽约的记者。在2021年转岗负责白宫报道之前，她曾报道过国会和2020年总统竞选。

海因里希在新英格兰地区长大，她将自己的家庭描述为政治观点多元。她年幼时父母离婚，她的生活在三个环境之间切换：新罕布什尔州保守的父亲、缅因州政治立场温和的母亲，以及来自佛蒙特州支持伯尼·桑德斯的继父。她认为这种成长环境为她的职业生涯提供了极佳的训练。

“在同一个家庭的两顶屋檐下，既有‘不自由，毋宁死’，也有社会主义，”她说道。“我们培养出了一种非常敏锐的倾听能力。我认为这是新闻业最重要的部分之一，即能够充分地倾听并理解他人的观点，从而能以公正且完整的方式将其描述给他人。”

一旦海因里希解决了目前与白宫的冲突，她将不得不筹划该协会的年度晚宴。（由于一名枪手试图进入华盛顿希尔顿酒店的宴会厅，今年的活动被提前终止并重新安排了时间。）

海因里希表示，即便总统对媒体持有公开的敌意，他仍将被欢迎参加2027年的活动。

“在过去的115年里，我们每年都会邀请总统，这一点不会因为特朗普总统而改变，”海因里希说。“我们在这里维护法律、规范和传统，并且打算保持下去。”

AI 竞赛变幻莫测，华尔街押注芯片

Meta 快速增长的 AI 智能体 Muse 的吉祥物与首席执行官马克·扎克伯格一同亮相。

作者：RYAN VLASTELICA

华尔街专业人士表示，尽管 Meta Platforms Inc. 的 Muse 似乎已经接过了接力棒，但对于股票投资者而言，芯片制造商仍然是参与顶尖人工智能智能体竞赛的最佳方式。

“领导地位几乎就像一场‘抢烫手山芋’的游戏，”Tema ETFs 的投资策略主管 Paisley Nardini 表示，该公司持有 Meta 股份并管理着 38 亿美元 billion 的资金。“我已经听到有人开玩笑说，几周后我们就会为了其他东西而忘记 Muse。”

智能体能够处理多步骤任务，例如预订或管理财务。它们的流行在市场中引起了波动，因为投资者在权衡哪些产品可能成为企业和消费者的首选，同时也在评估它们可能对传统商业模式产生的颠覆性影响。

然而，在这些疑问之中，已经明确的一点是，这些新型智能体比上一代 工具（主要以聊天机器人形式存在）需要更多的计算能力。这意味着，市场对芯片制造商以及 基础设施领域其他相关股票的需求将持续存在。自 ChatGPT 在近四年前首次亮相以来，这些领域一直是布局这一新兴技术的首选方式。

“与其试图猜测哪家公司最终会拥有最好的智能体，我们更希望拥有智能体的整体基础，即无论哪家公司领先都能获益的股票，”Lear Investment Management 的首席投资官 Rick Lear 表示。其集中投资组合专注于预计将从智能体兴起中获益的公司，如英伟达（Nvidia Corp.）、美光科技（Micron Technology Inc.）和电力公司 Williams Companies。

他说：“技术领先地位一直在来回切换，但如果智能体整体能够普及，我们将需要更多的芯片、更多的内存、更多的电力和更多的基础设施。无论我们是从 Meta 处于领先地位转变为再次糟糕不堪，这一点在普遍意义上都是成立的。”

基础设施股票在今年很大程度上驱动了市场。在标准普尔 500 指数涨幅最大的 10 家公司中，有 9 家与该主题相关。芯片制造商表现尤为强劲，费城半导体指数上涨了 81%，这主要受到美光、马威尔科技（Marvell Technology Inc.）、英特尔（Intel Corp.）和超微半导体（Advanced Micro Devices Inc.）等 概念股的推动。

周四开盘后不久，芯片指数一度下跌 2%。

Meta 上个月推出了其 Muse 个人 助手，迅速获得了巨大的下载量和好评。这使得 Facebook 的母公司在 9 月份表现火爆，该股上涨 27%，创下近四年来的最佳单月表现。OpenAI 随后推出了自己的新产品 Dots，与 Alphabet Inc. 的 Gemini Spark 和 SpaceXAI 的 Grok Bot 一起进入 智能体市场。

Muse 的流行表明 情绪变化之快，势头往往会转向最新或最热门的产品。虽然 Meta 目前处于高位，但由于人们认为其在 上投入了数百亿美元却收效甚微，它在今年上半年陷入苦战。与此同时，Alphabet 从今年早些时候被认为是 领导者，到最近则受到了更多审视。

这种剧烈的波动正是为什么如此多投资者认为 基础设施股票比智能体竞赛中的公司更可靠的赌注。

“如果你试图押注 Meta、Alphabet、苹果或其他人谁将成为 智能体的最大赢家，那么现在看来就像是在抛硬币，”Tema ETFs 的 Nardini 表示。“基础设施是一种更直接的获益方式，因为从长期时间维度来看，对智能体的需求将驱动对这些产品的需求。”

这正迅速成为一种共识观点，促使分析师提高对 AI 基础设施收益的预期。根据彭博智能（Bloomberg Intelligence）的数据，该行业预计在 2027 年的净收入将增长 63%，而营收将跃升 54%。而在 7 月底，当时的预测是利润增长低于 48%，营收增长 32%。

对 2028 年的预估也在同步上调，这表明华尔街预计这一趋势将在未来几年内持续。

不断演进的智能体（agents）是该论点的核心部分。花旗集团（Citigroup Inc.）分析师阿蒂夫·马利克（Atif Malik）认为，包括处理器、内存和网络芯片在内的不同类型的半导体也可能从其开发中获益。他在 10 月 6 日的一份研究报告中估计，到 2030 年，CPU 芯片的总潜在市场将以 60% 的复合年增长率增长。

“这就是为什么基础设施方案非常有意义，”纳尔迪尼（Nardini）说道。“Meta 不会永远占据主导地位。领导地位可能会在 6 个月内发生变化。但不会改变的是对芯片的需求。”

达美航空因战争导致燃料价格高企而下调利润预期

作者：Sri Taylor

达美航空（Delta Air Lines Inc.）下调了全年收益预期，因为中东战争引发的高额喷气燃料价格继续动摇美国航空公司，尽管强劲的旅行需求帮助该航空公司抵消了部分增加的成本。

这家总部位于亚特兰大的航空公司周五表示，预计 2026, 的调整后每股收益为 $5.10 至 $5.60，远低于其在 7 月份确认的 60 亿美元.50 至 $7.50 范围。达美航空表示，预计今年将比 2025 多承担 60 亿美元 billion 的燃料成本。

“我认为这对任何人来说都不意外，这完全是因为燃料价格上涨，”首席执行官埃德·巴斯蒂安（Ed Bastian）在谈到新区间时表示。“如果这种情况持续走高且时间更长——我认为会这样——作为行业内的优质航空公司，我们拥有最强的定价能力来应对这一点。”

纽约盘前交易中，该公司股价下跌。作为首家公布季度业绩的美国主要航空公司，投资者将达美航空视为行业的风向标，尤其是在成本上升以及进入关键的假期旅行季节时，面对票价上涨，需求能维持强劲多久仍存在疑问。

达美航空报告的第三季度调整后每股收益为 $1.72，低于彭博社调查的分析师平均预期的 $1.82。调整后营收同比增长约 16%，达到 176 亿美元 billion，大致符合预期。

该航空公司表示，调整后的燃料支出同比增长 62%，达到 41 亿美元 billion，其中比 7 月份的预测增加了超过 5亿美元。

“我们继续看到非常强劲的需求，并且我们认为这种需求将在第四季度和明年年初得以维持，”巴斯蒂安说。

即使预计机票价格将上涨，他认为旅行需求也不会减弱。

“在消费经济中，即使价格点较高，航空旅行仍然是一个相对划算的选择，”他说。“机票价格仍比通货膨胀率低 10 个百分点。”

该航空公司报告的调整后税前利润为 15 亿美元 billion，与去年同期基本持平，因为较高的票价和增长的优质营收帮助缓冲了燃料成本的影响。

优质营收增长了 18%，而与美国运通公司（American Express Co.，达美航空联名信用卡的独家发行商）长期合作伙伴关系带来的营收增长了 15%。

对于第四季度，达美航空预测调整后每股收益为 $1.15 至 $1.65，营收同比增长约 20%。

该航空公司预计营业利润率为 7% 至 9% 和综合燃料价格约为每加仑 $4.25，这表明高昂的能源成本在年底前将继续拖累收益。

达美航空日益依赖高付费客户及其利润丰厚的忠诚度计划来驱动营收。该公司近期扩大了独家 Delta One 休息室网络，进一步细分了商务舱舱位，并深化了与 SkyMiles 计划相关的合作伙伴关系。

除传统主舱机票销售以外的营收（包括优质座位、忠诚度及其他业务）占本季度调整后营收的 61%。

更快的机上 Wi-Fi 是达美航空及其竞争对手试图吸引优质旅客的方式之一。

由于达美航空选择了亚马逊（Amazon.com Inc.）的 Leo 卫星互联网服务而非 SpaceX 的 Starlink，该公司最近发现自己陷入了与埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）的公开争端中。巴斯蒂安在 5 月份表示，亚马逊的产品在价格显著低于 Starlink 的情况下提供了更好的带宽。

马斯克多次批评巴斯蒂安，在上周 X 平台一个账号传播了被归于巴斯蒂安名下的未经证实评论后，马斯克称这位达美航空高管“将因此丢掉工作”。

“我非常有信心我们在 Wi-Fi 方面做得很好，而且我不会在那个问题上上当，尽管我很想这么做，”巴斯蒂安说。“Starlink 是一款伟大的产品，我们很了解它。”

达美航空的主要竞争对手——联合航空控股公司（United Airlines Holdings Inc.）、美国航空集团（American Airlines Group Inc.）和西南航空公司（Southwest Airlines Co.）都在采用 Starlink，其中美国航空宣布计划将其服务扩展至其全部 1,000 多架主干线机队。

草莓农户重新探索蒸汽法以替代化学药剂

作者：HAVEN DALEY

资深草莓农户罗德·科达（Rod Koda）在他位于加利福尼亚州的农场里，有几排植株在通常的收获季结束之后仍能持续结果。

他表示，得益于蒸汽处理，这些位于太平洋沿岸、绿意盎然的田块今年产出的有机草莓数量几乎是其他地块的两倍。在科达种植有机草莓之前，这些丰产地块经过了蒸汽处理，这是一项旨在寻找替代化学熏蒸剂（用于杀死土传病害和杂草）的项目的一部分。

“差异非常明显，”科达说道。

几十年来，蒸汽一直被用于温室，而加利福尼亚州的研究人员一直致力于将这项技术应用于太平洋沿岸种植草莓（该州关键作物之一）的露天田地。这是更广泛推动计划的一部分，旨在帮助有机农户提高生产力，并减少化学药剂的使用，因为环境倡导者认为这些药剂会对农场工人及居住在田地附近的人群构成健康风险。

加利福尼亚州草莓委员会（California Strawberry Commission）主席里克·汤姆林森（Rick Tomlinson）表示，研究人员正在改进这项技术，以便能更快地投入应用。他指出，该行业一直在研究其他替代方案，包括通过切断氧气来杀死土壤病害，以及培育更具抗性的植株。

“从根本上说，土壤中存在这种病害，如果你没有解决方案，就相当于在赌博，总有一天你会因此破产，”汤姆林森说，“因为它能摧毁整个田块。”

美国 10 分之 9 的草莓产自加利福尼亚州。

农业专家表示，由于草莓生长在靠近地面的位置，且果实柔软多肉，极易染病，因此草莓种植者长期依赖化学熏蒸剂。参与该项目的加州大学圣克鲁兹分校（UC Santa Cruz）研究员珍妮·布鲁姆（Jenny Broome）表示，在种植前使用机器向土壤中注入蒸汽，可以杀死关键的土传病害和杂草，并提高作物产量。

布鲁姆表示，去年秋天有四位加州种植者参与了试验。她指出，在科达的农场中，经过蒸汽处理的地块产出的浆果更多，且受尖顶镰刀菌枯萎病（一种真菌病害）的影响较小。

她认为，蒸汽法可能也适用于种植其他高产作物的田地。目前的挑战在于如何让蒸汽法对农户而言具有成本效益，该技术的支持者正试图提高处理机器的运行速度。

特斯拉更改欧洲品牌名称

这家汽车制造商在其欧洲网站上将其系统命名为“特斯拉辅助驾驶”（Tesla Assisted Driving）。

作者：理查德·克劳（Richard Clough）

特斯拉公司（Tesla Inc.）正在淡化其“全自动驾驶”（Full Self-Driving）的品牌名称，以帮助其驾驶辅助系统在欧洲获得批准，从而使公司与这个被批评为具有危险误导性的名称保持距离。

近日，这家汽车制造商已开始在其欧洲网站上使用“特斯拉辅助驾驶”这一名称。

该网站的美国版本则继续对该技术使用“全自动驾驶（监督版）”（Full Self-Driving (Supervised)）。

特斯拉的驾驶辅助品牌名称长期以来一直是与监管机构、安全倡导者以及部分特斯拉客户之间的争论焦点，后者认为该名称给人一种完全自动化的印象，尽管驾驶员仍必须保持警觉并准备好接管车辆。

首席执行官埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）也因对特斯拉车辆能力做出过于激进或毫无根据的声明而受到批评。

去年，加利福尼亚州车辆管理局（California Department of Motor Vehicles）曾威胁要暂停特斯拉在该州的销售，理由是其驾驶辅助技术的营销涉嫌误导。

在该公司采取“纠正措施”后，当局撤回了威胁，这些措施包括逐步淘汰其 Autopilot 品牌，并明确规定在何时必须对全自动驾驶（也称为 FSD）进行驾驶员监督。

FSD 是特斯拉汽车业务的重要财务驱动力，该系统通常每月向驾驶员收取 $99。这同时也是马斯克努力将这家汽车制造商重塑为一家开拓自动驾驶车辆和机器人技术的前沿科技公司的关键。

特斯拉目前正寻求将 系统引入欧洲，而欧洲在接纳该技术方面一直较为缓慢。

荷兰监管机构在 4 月批准 时强调，该版本比美国使用的版本更具限制性，并在一份声明中表示，“配备 监督版的车辆并非自动驾驶”。

该公司继续在欧洲大陆的其他国家寻求批准。

食物残渣处理公司旨在肥沃土壤，并以此获利

像 Scrap Soils 这样的食物浪费收集公司有助于将可食用食物从垃圾填埋场转移出来，并减少甲烷的产生。 JOSHUA A. BICKEL 美联社

作者：Alexa St. John

每周一，里基·布兰丁（Ricky Blanding）都会驾驶他的福特 Ranger 皮卡车，沿着一条精心规划的路线在底特律周围行驶。

布兰丁在车内穿梭，从门廊和餐厅收集桶装的食物残渣，将这些残渣堆放在车斗的垃圾桶中，然后将它们运送到堆肥场。

布兰丁是 Scrap Soils 的首席执行官。该公司是全美许多新兴的食物浪费收集服务公司之一，旨在帮助将食物从垃圾填埋场转移出来，并让堆肥变得更加便捷。对于那些无法在家里进行堆肥、居住在没有市政路边回收服务的城市，或者无法前往投放点的人来说，这项服务尤为重要。

将剩余的咖啡渣、蛋壳、胡萝卜叶等进行堆肥，可以减少进入垃圾场产生强效温室气体甲烷的食物量。这最终也有助于为园艺爱好者和城市农民创造健康的土壤。

专家表示，像 Scrap Soils 这样的公司是清理更广泛食物生态系统的重要组成部分。气候解决方案非营利组织 Project Drawdown 的研究员艾米莉·卡西迪（Emily Cassidy）表示，堆肥具有双重效益：既能减少垃圾填埋场的甲烷排放，又能在堆肥过程完成后将养分还给土壤。

“由于甲烷在短时间内对气候的影响如此之大，我们能减少多少甲烷，就相当于在气候变化面前拉了多少次紧急刹车，”卡西迪说。

她表示，除了缓解气候变化，堆肥还能改善当地的粮食生产。

“这是我们能看到自己在造福环境的一种方式，因为我们提取了食物，然后用这些养分来补充土地，”她说。

底特律的家庭和餐厅参与其中

布兰丁是一名 34 岁的底特律本地人，他在 2020 年共同创立了 Scrap Soils，旨在为解决全州范围内的食物浪费问题贡献本地力量，而这一问题也反映了全球的情况。据估计，食物浪费是密歇根州垃圾填埋场甲烷的主要来源，并导致该州产生数百万公吨的二氧化碳当量排放。

在底特律，有 70 多户家庭和企业注册了 Scrap Soils 的每周回收服务。与在自家后院腾出空间或开车前往城市投放点相比，这是一种更简单的堆肥方式。家庭回收服务每月 $15 起，而企业根据数量每月支付 $60 或更多。

这些商业客户之一是位于底特律西南社区的 Grand Porter 餐厅。

“我们使用大量的鸡蛋，所以主要是鸡蛋残渣、蛋壳和纸板。我们将所有的面包碎、陈旧的面包碎都放在这里，”该餐厅的执行主厨卢·哈默（Lou Hammer）指着一个装有食物浪费袋的大桶说道，“还有一些番茄蒂、一些牛油果皮，可能还有其他一些东西。”

在谈到回收服务时，她说：“这不需要额外的努力。反正这些东西本来就要装进袋子里，现在只是装进绿色的袋子里而已。”

厨余垃圾转化为优质土壤添加剂

在完成每周时长九小时、里程超过100英里的路线后，布兰丁（Blanding）将废弃物送到Scrap Soils的合作伙伴——位于底特律的圣域农场（Sanctuary Farms）。在那里，苹果核、腐烂的南瓜、玉米皮和其他厨余垃圾被堆肥处理成可供购买的优质土壤添加剂。

“食物浪费不仅成为了问题，”布兰丁说，“它也是解决气候变化中诸多问题的方案。”

该公司最终计划购买一辆更大的卡车，以及用于堆肥的自有土地和设备。目前，该公司正在筹集资金，以获得州政府的配套拨款。

这一过程并非没有挑战。随着布兰丁寻求规模扩大，他遇到了质疑，认为一个资源有限的小团队无法产生重大影响。像Scrap Soils这样的公司还面临着包括提高知名度以及让人们真正注册并承诺参与在内的挑战。

与此同时，强调哪些可以堆肥、哪些不可以，以及如何正确操作（例如在将果皮放入桶中之前撕掉产品标签）也是成功的关键。

“运输者的角色非常重要，而关于堆肥的教育同样至关重要，”布兰丁说。

他补充道：“能够持续获得更多的参与和更多的合作伙伴，这些因素将极大地帮助我们将这个微小的尝试扩展为真正可以规模化的事业。”

城市倡议随需求增长

尽管存在障碍，其他独立堆肥计划和公司仍在扩张。例如丹佛堆肥集体（Denver Compost Collective）、纳什维尔的Compost Co.，以及在亚特兰大和北卡罗来纳州城市罗利、达勒姆和阿什维尔运营的Compost Now。

数百个市政府监管着食物垃圾的收集或投放计划以实现堆肥，尽管这一数量远低于全国数以千计的普通垃圾处理计划，这表明仍有增长空间。堆肥与回收类刊物《BioCycle》在2023年的一份报告中指出，美国有400个由市政府支持的居民食物垃圾收集计划，其中230个提供路边收集服务。

对于许多美国城市来说，堆肥将在更广泛的气候计划中发挥关键作用，这将激励更多城市开始对其进行投资。

例如，底特律的气候战略要求到2050年消除其市政温室气体排放。除了提高住宅和建筑的能源效率以及增加清洁出行外，其实现目标的策略之一是实施一项三年计划，将$15%的垃圾从垃圾填埋场分流。

底特律在去年启动了首个市政厨余垃圾投放倡议，仅设一个中心站点。数百名居民注册参与，在家里装满桶并将其送到市府站点。Scrap Soils是该市教育宣传活动的合作伙伴。

该市计划通过在更多地点提供投放箱以及在市政建筑现场进行堆肥来扩大其努力。

“堆肥和回收真的是人们进入可持续发展领域的便捷入口，是个人支持城市可持续发展目标和地球目标可以采取的一步，”底特律可持续发展总监特普菲拉·鲁什丹（Tepfirah Rushdan）表示。“当我们将所有系统（包括废弃物处理流）转向不同的运作方式时，看到人们参与其中令人兴奋。”

观点 艾莉森·墨菲（ALISON MURPHY）客座撰稿人 为什么我们不应期望幸存者举报强奸

在每一个阶段，个人和系统都有可能让你失望。看看康奈尔大学的“简·多伊”（Jane Doe）就知道了。

在我接受培训的芝加哥强奸危机中心，我们并不称其为刑事司法系统。我们称之为刑事法律系统：因为正义虽然是人们向往的目标，但极少能真正实现。作为一名急诊室倡导者，我被教导绝不能向幸存者施压要求其向警方举报，而应简单地概述他们的选择，并支持他们所做的任何决定。

康奈尔大学的案例正是我们采取这种方法的典型原因。我们深知举报过程对幸存者的要求有多高，而最终真正获得正义的人又是多么之少。

康奈尔大学案例的细节令人心碎且似曾相识：一名无法表达同意的大学生，遭到兄弟会成员的袭击。警方让她失望了，他们将创伤后的正常反应视为不可靠的证据，因此删除了她证词中的关键部分。地区检察官让她失望了，拒绝审查进一步的证据。她的大学让她失望了，允许许多袭击她的男性回到校园。

由于康奈尔大学学生的不懈报道以及随之而来的公众压力，简·多伊的案件现已重启。但在纽约州，这名幸存者将面临的举证责任——该州要求幸存者证明自己在整个袭击过程中处于身体无助状态（换句话说，即失去意识）——仍将使定罪变得极其困难。

无论是这个案例，还是其中涉及的诸多系统性失效，都并非特例。研究表明，在许多已举报的性侵案件中，警方未能完成最基本的调查。根据强奸、滥用和袭击全国信息网络（RAINN）的数据，在熟人之间发生的性侵案件中（这类案件占性侵事件的绝大多数），警方在约 80% 的案件中拒绝调查短信和电子邮件等关键证据。

在康奈尔大学简·多伊的案例中，这些证据——警方似乎未能请求获取或转交给地区检察官——包括一张群聊截图，其中她的半意识身体被像免费比萨一样被提供，以及一名涉嫌强奸者在次日早晨发来的一条短信，含糊地为“事情的发展过程”道歉。或许正是由于这种制度性的忽视，4 out of 5 的加害者从未被起诉；而在 80% 被归类为“成立”（即很有可能发生）的性侵案件中，仅有 8% 最终导致定罪。

面对这些令人悲哀且熟悉的客观事实，人们不愿举报难道奇怪吗？我们很难期待有不同的结果，尤其是考虑到他们为了举报而必须承担的巨大个人代价。

对于那些足够幸运、从未经历过这一过程的人，以下是举报性侵时通常会遇到的情况。如果你前往急诊室，你将被提供一项性侵法医检查（俗称“强奸检材包”），在此过程中，你将被要求脱掉衣服并将其作为证据上交，你的裸体将被拍照，你的头发将被梳理，指甲将被刮取以获取 DNA 证据，且你的肛门、口腔、阴道和 / 或生殖器将被插入棉签。你将被要求回答详细且具有侵入性的问题，首先是由一名护士询问——如果你居住在要求使用性侵检查护士（SANE）的州，该护士至少接受过如何敏感地提问的培训——然后是由一名警察询问，而警察很可能没有接受过此类培训。

里克·鲍默（Rick Bowmer）美联社 举报强奸就像承担了一份兼职且无薪的工作，去证明自己的清白。

如果你的案件有所进展，你将不得不一遍又一遍地回答这些问题。你会被要求回忆起围绕该事件的细微细节，且要求的准确度之高，是我们大多数人对一个普通的周二都无法企及的，更不用说对自己生命中最痛苦的一天了。你会被问及你的感情状态、性经历以及药物使用习惯。如果案件进入审判阶段，你必须在观众面前再次回答所有这些问题，面对的是一方面是站在你这边的地区检察官（D.A.），另一方面则是辩护律师——后者的职责就是让陪审团怀疑证词，而其副作用是，有时你最终会开始怀疑自己的现实。

这个过程可能会持续数年，在此期间，你会被要求暂停生活，以便为访谈、听证会和审判日期留出时间，而这些日程

安排却在不断变动，根据除你之外每个人的日程表而调整。

在这个过程的每一个阶段，人们或系统都有可能让你失望，而统计学上的可能性是，其中之一确实会发生。在过程结束时，如果你属于那 8% 的一部分，这个过程可能会导致定罪，而袭击你的人可能会受到监禁形式的惩罚。或者，他可能只被判处六个月并受到轻微警告，因为他拥有一个前途光明的未来。

我说这些并不是为了打消人们举报的念头，而是为了概述当我们要求幸存者举报时，我们要求他们付出的代价。因为性侵犯与其他犯罪不同。武装抢劫的受害者通常不需要被要求证明自己的清白。而当我们期望甚至要求受害者举报时，我们实际上是在要求他们去做这件事：承担一份兼职且无偿的工作，去证明自己在一次发生在自己身上的犯罪中是清白的。

如果我们打算继续要求受害者承担举报的负担，那么我们欠他们最起码的支持：在每个州强制规定获得 SANE（性侵犯护士检查员）护士以及医院和法律倡导者的权利；对警察部队（包括校园警察）进行创伤知情询问的培训；资助受害者在袭击后的惨痛余波中生存所需的各项服务：从帮助他们申请保护令的法律支持，到紧急住房，再到心理和生殖

健康服务。

在那之前，我们欠幸存者一种自主权，让他们决定什么对自己最有利，并且如果他们决定不举报是对自己最好的选择，我们不应对他们施压或不信任他们。

作为一名童年性侵幸存者，当时我没有足够的词汇来描述发生在我身上的事情，无法告诉我的父母，更不用说警察了。我有时在想，如果我当时开口会发生什么。我想知道这是否能阻止后来我被告知他继续实施的那些袭击（尽管我没有证据证明这些袭击，就像我没有证据证明我自己的经历一样）。

我花了近二十年的时间才从那次袭击中恢复。但我在想，如果我当时举报了，还需要多久才能恢复：除了多年来反复出现、让我感到解离且变得陌生、不再像自己的焦虑、恶心、噩梦和闪回的伤疤外，我还必须面对一个占据了我整个青春期并让我一次又一次遭受二次创伤的法院程序的伤疤——而这一切仅仅是为了那 $8 的可能性，即袭击我的人能受到任何形式的惩罚。

当我想到这一点时，我感到的不是没有开口的遗憾：而是解脱。

查理·里德尔（CHARLIE RIEDEL）美联社 特朗普周一的言论遭到了加利福尼亚州领导者的谴责。

这番言论很难洗白

关于 10 月 7 日的《特朗普对加州的抨击达到新极端》

当记者引用他人话语时，会使用方括号来标出那些隐含但未被说出的词语。这或许有助于理解特朗普周一在集会上所说的话。

大多数人将他的话理解为：“他们（伊朗）可以摧毁一座城市。[如果那样的话]，那就让他们摧毁洛杉矶吧。让他们摧毁圣地亚哥吧。[反正那是加州，没什么损失。] 这是一个非常小的代价。”加州州长加文·纽森（Gavin Newsom）显然也是这样理解的，因此他称特朗普“精神错乱且危险”。他的听众也是这样理解的，因为他们知道他多么鄙视我们这个州。这就是为什么他在说这话时，人们发出了笑声，因为他们中的许多人同样持有这种鄙视。

但白宫通讯主任史蒂文·张（Steven Cheung）声称，特朗普的演讲“显然”是指伊朗战争是为了保护我们的美国城市免受核攻击，而特朗普的意思是：“他们可以摧毁一座城市。[但不能]让他们摧毁洛杉矶。[不能]让他们摧毁圣地亚哥。这[段高油价时期]是为了拯救我们的城市而付出的非常小的代价。”

所以，就像在《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中一样，“真”意味着“假”，“是”意味着“否”。这让我想起路易斯·卡罗尔笔下的蛋头先生（Humpty Dumpty）说过的话：“当我使用一个词时，它的意思就是我选择让它代表的意思。”

正当我们觉得特朗普总统不太可能再说出或做出任何事情来进一步证明其傲慢、轻率和鲁莽之时，他竟然暗示，如果伊朗给洛杉矶或圣地亚哥带来死亡和混乱，那也没什么大不了的。无论持有何种政治倾向，什么样的美国总统会建议外国势力轰炸这个国家的任何一座城市或城镇？

乔·马丁（JOE MARTIN） 西雅图

：

史蒂文·张在试图解释并掩饰特朗普关于伊朗“可以摧毁一座城市，让他们摧毁洛杉矶，让他们摧毁圣地亚哥。这是一个非常小的代价”的言论时，由于过度地“洗白”，恐怕已经累瘫了。

我绝不以任何形式将其仅仅视为一个玩笑。这是对这些城市公民以及整个加利福尼亚州的一种卑劣且残酷的姿态。我认为这是一种制造针对我们的敌意的策略。

文图拉

： ：

作为一名圣地亚哥居民，在特朗普最近的胡言乱语中，我感到最令人心寒的是，当他说“让他们摧毁洛杉矶，让他们摧毁圣地亚哥”时，他的听众在欢呼。即便白宫的清理小组设法“澄清”了这些言论，但得知一些美国同胞会为我的被毁灭而欢呼，这依然令人极度不安。如此极端的恶意对我们国家的福祉而言并非好兆头。

弗吉尼亚·海德（VIRGINIA HYDE） 圣地亚哥

首先，我想代表我的州，就最近在内布拉斯加州的一场集会上，人们对特朗普轻率地将伊朗可能“摧毁”洛杉矶或圣地亚哥称为“一个小代价”而发出的笑声，向洛杉矶人和圣地亚哥人道歉。在我的一生中，从未听过任何一名当选官员发表如此令人厌恶的言论，更不用说美国总统了。

我想让你们知道，并非所有内布拉斯加州人都像那些在特朗普集会上大笑和欢呼的人一样。我们中的许多人与你们一样，对我们国家及其领导层的现状感到痛苦，并渴望我们能再次拥有一位称职且强大的领导人。我希望这封信能让洛杉矶和圣地亚哥的市民们安好，我衷心祝愿你们的城市以及美利坚合众国一切顺利。

马特·拉特杰（MATT RATHJE） 内布拉斯加州，林肯

:

这一次的感觉比平时更具有针对性。我们都见过特朗普发表过很多冒犯性的言论，但在这次发言中，他真的变本加厉了。

总统表示，他认为我的死亡，以及所有在洛杉矶和圣地亚哥地区阅读此文的人的死亡，在他与伊朗的战争中是令人遗憾但可以接受的损失。他甚至没有费心使用那个陈旧的“我只是在开玩笑”的辩护理由。

归根结底，一名总统真正有两项职责：不要让我们丢脸，不要让我们丧命。他在第一项上完全失败，并且在第二项上正竭尽全力地搞砸。

顺便提一句：那些为这段话欢呼的内布拉斯加州好公民们需要重新审视他们的人生选择。

广告建议令人反感

关于 10 月 4 日的《希尔顿因挑衅性广告面临抵制》

史蒂夫·希尔顿（Steve Hilton）那则带有性暗示的政治广告确实为他赢得了一些关注。其叙事方式——一名强势的年轻女性告诉另一名羞怯的女性“把手给我”、“闭上眼睛”以及“剩下的交给我来做”——即便没有卧室般的灯光布置，也绝对是非常大胆的。这能改变选票吗？加尔瓦里礼拜堂奇诺山分会（Calvary Chapel Chino Hills）的创始人、具有影响力的保守派福音派牧师杰克·希布斯（Jack Hibbs）认为该广告“令人作呕”，但尽管如此，他仍宣布将投票给希尔顿。

对我而言，更令人不适的元素是性暗示与肢体引导（甚至是强迫）的结合，在镜头前，强势的一方在肢体上引导另一方的选票选择。这看起来像是一个人在操纵另一个人的投票。这种操纵投票的隐喻难道不会让希尔顿、希布斯牧师和共和党感到不安吗？对我来说确实如此。

更多住房，更多用水

关于 10 月 8 日的《水费大幅上涨》

人们不禁在想，如果水在南加州是如此稀缺的商品，那么为什么政治家们还在推动更高密度、更多数量的住房建设？增加更多水资源似乎应该是建设更多住房的基础要求。

也许一些有前瞻性的政治家会放弃那个通往无名之地的子弹火车，而将这笔钱投资于一条从北加州通往南加州的水管。更好的是，开始在太平洋沿岸寻找海水淡化厂的选址。

新数据表明 LAPD 案件赔偿金额高昂

城市赔付金额增加

[LAPD，见 A1 页]

[...OMITTED...]

LAPD 诉讼案

自 2019. 以来，洛杉矶已支付了近 4.8亿美元。交通碰撞、警员涉入的枪击事件以及员工投诉位居榜首。

自 2019, 洛杉矶在警员涉入的枪击事件诉讼中支付了约 1.05亿美元，其中 60% 的总额是在 2024 年支付的。

■ 诉讼赔付总额（单位：百万美元） ☑ 警员涉入的枪击赔付 “你们街道的路灯熄灭了，一年都没人修理。这就是为什么你们的人行道得不到修理，或者你们的动物收容所人员不足或资金匮乏的原因，”梅希亚（Mejia）说道。其办公室目前正在对该市的风险管理策略进行审计，结果将于今年公布。

洛杉矶市检察官办公室 SEAN GREENE 洛杉矶时报 仅显示总额超过 1500万美元 的类别。洛杉矶市检察官办公室

专家们仍在分析涉及警察的法律赔付激增的原因——这一现象远不止于洛杉矶。

今年，一家法律辩护组织发现，纽约市自 2019 以来已支付超过 7.96亿美元 用于和解涉及警察渎职指控的诉讼，其中包括 2025. 的 1.17亿美元。据当地新闻报道，在芝加哥，该市解决警察诉讼的支出有望超过去年的 2.52亿美元，其中大多数原告是基于错误证据而被送入监狱的人员。

在洛杉矶，这种激增发生在市检察官海迪·费尔德斯坦·索托（Hydee Feldstein Soto）任职期间。她将成本上升归咎于在她上任之前办公室处理各类诉讼的方式，以及所谓的“核弹级裁决”（nuclear verdicts）这一全国性法律趋势。

“这个系统正以一种不健康的方式膨胀，我认为这创造了起诉和达成天方夜谭式和解的激励机制，”费尔德斯坦·索托在今年接受《时报》采访时表示。她表示，她的办公室会对每个索赔案件进行逐案评估，决定何时选择和解比进入审判更有意义，因为在审判中，陪审团可能会基于情绪或对事件的不同认知做出裁决。费尔德斯坦·索托多年来一直游说修改州法律，以限制“非经济性”损害赔偿。

费尔德斯坦·索托的批评者认为，她近年来采取了强硬手段，除非显然该市在法庭上可能会败诉，否则拒绝和解。

这种强硬立场导致了复杂的结果。在一些如果愿意和解本可以避免的陪审团裁决中，该市败诉了。但它也在几起备受关注的案件中获胜，包括今年一起裁决，陪审团判定一名警员不对 2021 年一名 14 岁女孩的死亡负责，该女孩是在北好莱坞一家百货商店与嫌疑人匆忙对峙期间被一颗误射的子弹击中身亡的。

市检察官办公室在给《时报》的一份声明中表示，虽然它正在通过“一切可能手段”积极努力遏制不断上升的诉讼成本，但它无法“控制针对该市提起诉讼的数量、时间或索赔金额”。

“本办公室也无法控制这些债务所谓的根源：市检察官办公室不对洛杉矶警察局（LAPD）的政策或人员负责，”该声明称，并补充说，在过去的四个预算年度中，针对该市提起的诉讼数量每年增长约 20%，使该办公室的资源承受巨大压力。

加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校（Cal State San Bernardino）刑事司法副教授扎卡里·鲍威尔（Zachary Powell）表示，尽管数据表明警察使用武力的情况自 2020 年以来有所减少，但公众已经“比以往任何时候都更加关注警察的滥权行为和操守”。

“我认为人们在陪审团审理过程中也会提出更多问题，”他说。

他表示，其他解释还包括全州范围内警察问责措施的通过，以及疫情期间积压的案件终于到了处理期限。

《洛杉矶时报》的分析发现，涉及警员的数百起交通意外法律战占据了所有赔付金额的近四分之一。自 2019 年以来，该市已为数千起事故索赔支付了 1.25亿美元，其中近三分之一源于警员在撞上另一辆车或行人之前，被认定未能在交叉路口停止或让行的案件。与追捕相关的索赔以及源于警员违规左转的诉讼也让该市损失了数百万美元。

其他法律成本则可追溯到数年前，在某些情况下甚至可追溯到数十年前。

该市目前每月仍向克拉伦斯·钱斯（Clarence Chance）支付 $7,410。钱斯在 20 世纪 90 年代初因一起导致其被误判入狱 17 年、为未曾犯下的谋杀罪服刑的错误逮捕案而获得了一笔巨额赔偿。2021 年，洛杉矶警察局炸弹小组在处置没收的烟花时出现失误，导致一个街区的部分区域被夷为平地，随后有近 4000万美元 赔付给了房屋受损的民众。

最大的赔付类别之一是自 2019 年以来在警察枪击相关索赔上花费的 $104.600 万——根据《洛杉矶时报》的分析，其中超过四分之三涉及被报道为受药物影响或处于精神健康危机中的人员。分析发现，在警察枪击持有刀具等锐利武器的人员后，共支付了约 $38.400 万。在此期间，涉及帮派专职警员的枪击事件给该市造成了近 $400 万 的损失。

数十起诉讼仍在审理中，包括与去年以来处理大规模亲移民抗议活动相关的索赔，这可能会让纳税人在未来承担更多巨额赔付。在过去七年半里，警察在应对人群时使用硬泡沫弹药、骑警及其他战术已使该市损失至少 2200万美元——其中略多于一半源于该部门对 2020 年因乔治·弗洛伊德被谋杀而引发的大规模抗议活动的应对。

此类总额可能并不总是包含在达成和解后协商的律师费，或者在案件上诉时产生的费用。

曾起诉该部门的民权律师乔纳森·埃文斯（Jonathan Evans）认为，巨额赔付表明公众对精神健康问题的意识提高是一个因素。他表示，意识到这一点后，各市政府同意的和解金额比以往年份更高。

“使用致命武力的决定正受到更严格的审查，”他说。

近年来，数千万美元的市资金流向了因性骚扰、种族歧视和报复等职场不公而起诉的不满警察。

自 2019 年以来，至少有 27 名洛杉矶警察局员工获得了陪审团裁决或市府和解的百万美元以上赔偿；更多的人获得了五位数或六位数的赔偿金。

为了遏制未来的法律成本，该部门去年请回了一位前高级官员阿里夫·阿里坎（Arif Alikhan），由私人捐款支付其每月 $20,000, 的薪水，旨在研究如何减少昂贵的诉讼数量。阿里坎未回应请求评论的电话。

该部门维持着一套早期干预系统，根据风险因素对警员进行标记，例如平民投诉量相对较高、频繁使用武力，以及涉及可预防的交通事故或追捕行动。该系统用于确定这些警员是否需要额外培训，或者是否应该被重新分配岗位或被纳入绩效改进计划。

在洛杉矶警察局（LAPD）内部，部分警员以及基层工会“洛杉矶警察保护联盟”认为，市政府应该更强硬地反击那些毫无可信度的指控，而不是选择和解。他们表示，最常被起诉的警员往往来自特种部队，这些部队执行的是该部门及大多数公众所希望的积极警务工作：打击帮派、毒品和枪支。

代表那些因举报遭到报复而起诉该部门的警员的律师们，驳斥了局长吉姆·麦克唐纳（Jim McDonnell）及其他人的说法，即部分警员为了获得巨额赔偿而夸大其指控。

他们表示，如果说有什么问题的话，持续的大额赔付是根深蒂固的种族和性别偏见以及纪律执行不一的结果——而且是由于洛杉矶警察局不愿从过去的诉讼中吸取教训。

劳工律师格雷格·雅库比安（Greg Yacoubian）表示，目前的系统几乎没有动力去改变，因为诉讼成本是由纳税人承担的，而不是由涉嫌违规的警员及其上司承担。

“犯错的人永远感受不到压力，”雅库比安说道。

性侵受害者出售延迟到账的县政府赔偿金权利

罗伯特·戈蒂尔 (ROBERT GAUTHIER) 洛杉矶时报 麦克拉伦大厅 (MacLAREN HALL) 曾是由洛杉矶县运营的一家儿童收容所，一直是多起诉讼的对象。

卡琳·斯蒂尔 (CARLIN STIEHL) 洛杉矶时报 塔米·罗杰斯 (TAMMY ROGERS) 是麦克拉伦大厅儿童虐待事件的幸存者，她于 2025 年 9 月接受采访。

[赔偿金，接 A1 页] 私营公司正向那些愿意签署协议转让预期和解金权利的受害者提供一次性款项，在此过程中，受害者有时会损失很大一部分赔偿金。

“他们就像水中的鲨鱼一样在盘旋，”和解协议中的另一位索赔人詹姆斯·特平 (James Turpin) 表示，他称一家融资公司的代表在 Facebook 上给他发了消息。

许多参与者表示，由于案件陷入延迟和欺诈指控的泥潭，他们渴望获得任何可能的资金，以便继续生活。虽然部分受害者将在今年秋季收到首批款项，但负责该和解协议中大部分索赔的两家律师事务所的赔偿金发放已被暂停，以等待调查，导致数千人处于悬而未决的状态。

“时间太久了，我厌倦了一遍又一遍地回想起那些事，”德博拉·伊索姆·史密斯 (Deborah Isom Smith) 说道，她出售了源自其对麦克拉伦大厅索赔的赔偿金，该收容所曾由县政府运营，因虐待行为而臭名昭著。“我只想过自己的生活。”

融资公司们正随时准备提供帮助。

“大家好，我知道等待洛杉矶的和解金很艰难，”自由和解融资公司 (Liberty Settlement Funding) 的一名代表在麦克拉伦大厅受害者的 Facebook 群组中写道。“完全没有压力——我们只是来提供帮助的。”

据协调这些案件的首席原告律师之一雷·鲍彻 (Ray Boucher) 称，在过去的几个月里，全美有 180 多名受害者已采取行动，将他们的赔偿金出售给大约十几家不同的公司。

购买了许多赔偿金的洛杉矶和解融资公司 (LA Settlement Funding) 首席法律官弗雷德里克·洛夫 (Frederick Love) 表示，他们的交易“定价尽可能紧凑，以向卖家提供最大利益”。他表示，折扣率在 9% 到 11% 之间。

根据法院文件，大多数受害者将获得相当于其出售金额约 80% 的一次性款项，而有些人的处境则要糟糕得多。

根据法院文件，一名加迪纳 (Gardena) 男子签署了一份合同，将其 90,400 美元的赔偿金以 25,000 美元的价格出售。代表融资公司 Datura Capital 的一名律师表示，该利率是一个错误，在修正后的利率下，该男子将获得约 72% 的赔偿金。

“我并非轻率地这样做，而是有紧迫的需求，”该男子在 8 月 26 日的一份声明中写道。“医生告诉我患有慢性肾病，需要立即治疗。否则我没有资金支付这笔费用。”

在加利福尼亚州，法官在认定出售和解赔偿金符合索赔人的最大利益后，需要批准该交易。申请文件中通常详细列出了受害者现在需要资金的各种原因：面临无家可归、大学学费、房屋首付款。

代表约 1,700 名原告的 ACTS 律师事务所合伙人鲍里斯·特雷宗 (Boris Treyzon) 表示，他最近出庭敦促法官拒绝一项出售申请。

“这些利率简直疯了，”特雷宗说。

代表这些案件原告的律师表示，合同中留下了关键的未决问题，包括谁负责支付律师费（在这些案件中，律师费通常会吞掉约 40% 的赔偿金），以及如果受害者最终获得的资金多于最初协议中的预期金额将如何处理。

洛杉矶和解融资公司的洛夫表示，他的公司仅购买受害者在和解金中的份额，并称“任何超过被转让部分的款项”将归还给原告。

洛杉矶县的一位发言人在一份声明中表示，这些贷款公司是第三方削减预留给性虐待受害者补偿资金的最新案例。在名为第 218 号议会法案（Assembly Bill 218）的州法律变更后，该县面临诉讼浪潮，该法案允许人们就数十年前发生的虐待行为提起诉讼。

“激进的金融公司利用脆弱的 AB 218 受害者进行‘现钱计划’（payday now scheme），这再次表明系统未能针对加利福尼亚州公共实体面临的日益严重的问题设置适当的护栏，”该县在声明中表示。“无论是拿走受害者和解金高达 50% 的原告律师，还是通过收取费用提供快速付款的和解公司，这种持续为了利润而抽走纳税人资金的行为，从根本上违背了 AB 218 的初衷。”

内弗塔西亚·伯勒斯（Neffertashia Burroughs）表示，她在青少年时期在少年管教所遭到虐待。她说她对这笔交易并不满意，但看不到其他选择。与许多受害者一样，她说这起案件揭开了旧伤口，而且她已经厌倦了付款时间表似乎每个月都在变动。

她说，她正处于被驱逐出境的边缘，有时没有足够的钱喂养孩子。

“我正努力治愈自己，但却被困在一个似乎由延迟、不确定性和重复借口组成的系统中，”她在电子邮件中写道。“我精疲力竭了。”

其他人则表示，他们觉得利率尚可，但对大量来自公司的电话感到不安，因为这些公司不愿解释他们是如何获得其联系方式的。几乎所有的性虐待诉讼都是以化名提交的。

“所以请帮我理解你们是怎么拿到我的信息的，”克里斯塔·哈巴德（Krista Hubbard）给一家总部位于佛罗里达州迈阿密湖（Miami Lakes）的融资公司销售人员发短信道。“如果我得不到答案，必要时我会要求审计你们公司。”

“祝您生活愉快，”该销售人员回复道。

滑雪者对厄尔尼诺充满期待，但大雪并非必然

作者：杰克·多兰（Jack Dolan）

虽然许多加州人正准备迎接由正在发展的厄尔尼诺现象带来的几个月阴雨连绵和洪水灾害，但数百万户外运动爱好者却在庆祝可能迎来史上最伟大的冬季。

如果你是一名滑雪者或单板滑雪者，你的社交媒体动态可能正充斥着对一个载入史册的赛季的兴奋预测。那些可能让平原地区陷入水患的大气河风暴，同样可以轻而易举地在更高、更寒冷的海拔地区带来打破纪录的积雪。

这意味着像猛犸山（Mammoth Mountain）这样的度假村——其 11,000 英尺的山顶使其成为加州最高的滑雪区——在本季有很大机会中大奖。在太浩（Tahoe）地区，海拔 10,000 英尺的天堂度假村（Heavenly）可能也会表现不错。

上个月，当州长加文·纽森（Gavin Newsom）在其厄尔尼诺状态紧急声明的物资准备清单中加入除雪设备时，谨慎的乐观情绪变成了毫无保留的喜悦。

全州各滑雪度假村的营销总监们一定欣喜若狂：紧急状态，宝贝！

很难责怪他们有些过度兴奋。

洛杉矶对大文豪的颂歌，这座桥梁即将迎来百年之庆

洛斯费利斯（Los Feliz）居民庆祝深受喜爱的莎士比亚桥

作者：克里斯托弗·雷诺兹（CHRISTOPHER REYNOLDS）

没有什么比对市政基础设施的喜爱更深沉了。

那是20世纪末，我的妻子玛丽·弗朗西丝（Mary Frances）和我搬到了洛斯费利斯。我们很快了解到，我们所在的社区角落被称为富兰克林山（Franklin Hills），而且几乎每次向东出行，我们都会经过一座带有八个尖顶小塔的有趣小桥。

那座桥就是莎士比亚桥（Shakespeare Bridge）。

玛丽·弗朗西丝在附近的伊万霍小学（Ivanhoe Elementary）任教，20多年来，她每个上学日都要跨过这座桥两次。我们的女儿格蕾丝（Grace）在那里就读六年，通常由我担任司机，陪她跨过这座桥。

我们在各种天气下、在不同时段，无论是步行、骑车还是开车，都曾多次跨越它，期间聊过学校、工作、家庭，以及最近国家和世界的破碎状态。

现在，这座位于富兰克林大道（Franklin Avenue）与圣乔治街（St. George Street）交汇处的桥梁即将迎来其100周年纪念日，一场周六的社区庆祝活动正在筹备中，届时将举行街道派对和游行。随着那一天的临近，我不禁在想，一座有趣的小桥在邻居们的生活中能变得多么重要。

它最初被称为富兰克林大道桥，由市土木工程部门的J.C. 赖特（J.C. Wright）在20世纪20年代中期设计。那时，一个二十多岁的漫画家名叫沃尔特·迪士尼（Walt Disney）刚搬到这个社区，而一个街区外的维塔格拉夫工作室（Vitagraph Studios）正处于从默片向有声电影的转型期。

这座桥是由一项引发争议的邻里市政摊派资金支付的，全长262英尺，宽30英尺——与帕萨迪纳的科罗拉多街桥（Colorado Street Bridge）等地标相比，它简直微不足道 [见 Bridge, B2]

我们生活在由市政厅录音泄密丑闻所塑造的世界中

如果我需要让自己保持谦卑——如果我的头脑中充斥着成为下一个史蒂夫·洛佩兹（Steve Lopez）或比尔·普拉斯基（Bill Plaschke）的宏大愿景——我会翻出那份秘密录音的文字记录。四年前，《时报》披露该报道后，这份记录颠覆了洛杉矶的政坛。

四年前《时报》披露了该报道。这就像是现代版的《奥兹曼迪亚斯》（Ozy-mandias），只不过要粗俗得多，远没有那么富有诗意，而且比雪莱（Shelley）能写出的任何东西都更能警示人们不要傲慢。

“对我们来说，关键是要行使我们的权力，”时任市议员吉尔·塞迪略（Gil Cedillo）在与该市三位最有权势的政治人物进行的一小时对话中途说道。

哦，他们确实行使了——而且完全不是他们预想的方式。

有毒ICE喷雾将迎来赔偿金

作者：安德里亚·卡斯蒂略（ANDREA CASTILLO）

华盛顿 —— 在从加利福尼亚州的一家移民拘留设施获释六年之后，威尔弗雷多·冈萨雷斯·梅纳（Wilfredo Gonzalez Mena）睡觉时必须用枕头把背撑起来，几乎呈坐姿，以避免呼吸困难。

他将自己持久的医疗问题归咎于他在阿德兰托（Adelanto）美国移民海关执法局（ICE）处理中心被拘留的10个月时间（直到2020年9月）。该中心位于洛杉矶东北约60英里处。在拘留期间，警卫几乎全天候地向他及其他被拘留者喷洒一种旨在防御COVID-19的浓缩消毒剂。

冈萨雷斯·梅纳是2023年就使用该清洁溶液提起的一项集体诉讼中的六名原告之一。根据里弗赛德（Riverside）一名联邦法官于9月25日初步批准的一项拟议和解协议，他预计将获得六位数的赔偿金。该和解协议适用于2020年3月11日至2020年9月30日期间在阿德兰托设施被拘留，并接触了名为HDQ Neutral的消毒剂的约2,700人。

“在你最意想不到的时候，你会感觉到雾气，”冈萨雷斯·梅纳说，“他们像对待动物一样喷洒我们。”

阿德兰托设施由GEO集团运营，这是一家总部位于佛罗里达州的私营监狱公司，多年来因其移民拘留设施的条件而面临批评。该公司还抵制加利福尼亚州旨在加强对其设施监督并向公众通报健康与安全缺陷的法律。

根据和解协议，GEO集团和生产HDQ Neutral的Spartan Chemical Co. Inc.公司承认，HDQ Neutral —— [见Spray, B2]

希尔顿攻击对手为“移民”引发轩然大波

贝塞拉表示，他那在美国出生的父亲在边境两侧生活的经历是他感到自豪的一点。

萨克拉门托 —— 在过去的一周里，州长候选人史蒂夫·希尔顿（Steve Hilton）通过攻击他的对手哈维尔·贝塞拉（Xavier Becerra）将父母描述为“移民”的行为，制造了他最喜欢的那种媒体骚乱。

尽管贝塞拉的母亲玛丽亚（Maria）出生在墨西哥，但他的父亲曼努埃尔（Manuel）于1928年出生在萨克拉门托。不久之后，贝塞拉的祖父母带着年幼的家人回到了墨西哥，曼努埃尔在那里长大，直到青年时期返回美国工作。

正如我的同事古斯塔沃·阿雷利亚诺（Gustavo Arellano）在一篇必读专栏中所说，对于加利福尼亚州的墨西哥裔美国人群体来说，这种在边境两端往返的情况在过去几十年甚至几个世纪里一直是常态而非例外。阿雷利亚诺解释说，曼努埃尔·贝塞拉出生在美国土地上的运气可能给了他某种优势，但这并没有让他减少一个移民的身份，尤其是在萨克拉门托的墨西哥人口低于2,500人，且种族主义依然被公开实践并被令人不安地接受的时代。

然而，希尔顿利用曼努埃尔·贝塞拉的美国公民身份，将年轻的贝塞拉贴上谎言者的标签，指称他涉嫌通过将自己虚构为移民之子，以便在这个移民之州获得身份政治的加分。对于大多数选民来说，贝塞拉的一位或两位父母是否符合移民资格可能看起来像是琐碎的小事，但希尔顿的指控触动了左翼和右翼的神经 —— 包括我自己在内，因为我是一名南亚移民的女儿。

挖掘希尔顿攻击的表象，你会发现这涉及的事情远不止曼努埃尔·贝塞拉的公民身份 —— 这是一个掩饰拙劣的“狗哨”信号，暗示一个“好”移民应该如何表现，以及我们应该

ICE拘留人员将因有毒喷雾获得赔偿

艾伦·J·沙本 (ALLEN J. SCHABEN)，洛杉矶时报 阿德兰托（Adelanto）美国移民海关执法局（ICE）处理中心的工作人员在2020年曾多次向拘留人员喷洒一种旨在防御COVID-19的浓缩消毒剂。

[接B1页“喷雾”] 该物质被归类为杀虫剂——可能导致包括起疱、化学灼伤、呕吐、永久性眼睛损伤以及呼吸道、喉咙和胃部损伤在内的症状。

和解协议称，这些调查结果现在可由未被列为原告的集体成员使用，他们可以提起自己的诉讼。

GEO集团和美国国土安全部均未回应置评请求。在诉讼提起后，GEO集团否认了相关指控，并表示在所有拘留中心，清洁产品的使用均安全可靠，且符合制造商指南和卫生标准。

当时，GEO集团的一位发言人称这些指控是“一场激进的、具有政治动机的活动的一部分，旨在攻击[美国移民海关执法局]承包商，废除ICE并结束联邦移民拘留”。

该公司随后将HDQ Neutral更换为另一种清洁产品。

代表前拘留人员的总部位于洛杉矶的民权非营利组织“审判影响项目”（Trial Impact Project）的律师称此次和解是一次胜利。

执行主任萨拉·哈吉（Sara Haji）提到了其他针对医疗忽视、报复以及食物和水标准低下等指控的待决诉讼。她说，每一项诉讼都指向同一个问题。

哈吉表示：“当像GEO这样的公司选择和解而不是在审判中为自己辩护，并且承认其到处喷洒的杀虫剂会导致严重的健康问题时，这应该让我们所有人警觉，并关注被拘留者一直向我们讲述的关于移民拘留日常残酷真相的事情。”

诉讼指控称，当GEO集团的员工在设施内部喷洒HDQ Neutral时，该公司对拘留人员进行了“长达数月的投毒”。在疫情之前，工作人员将其作为清洁产品使用。但随着COVID-19的传播，他们开始在广大区域内喷洒这种浓缩溶液，“直接喷向空气和所有类型的表面”，诉讼称。

诉讼声称，被拘留的移民很快开始出现相关反应，包括流鼻血、头痛和眩晕。

斯巴达化学公司（Spartan Chemical）警告称，不当接触会导致拘留人员所经历的这类影响。长期接触与哮喘有关，且在针对动物的实验室研究中，与生殖问题和出生缺陷有关。

2021, 美国环境保护署发现GEO集团因误用HDQ Neutral而违反了联邦法律。报告发现，工作人员和拘留人员被指示在设施内部使用该杀虫剂，频率最高可达每30分钟一次，且在没有适当通风的情况下，稀释率为每加仑水2盎司，这是消毒剂允许使用量的两倍。

2020, 9月，一名联邦法官命令GEO集团停止在阿德兰托设施使用HDQ Neutral，并写道，该产品的使用“冷酷地无视了阿德兰托拘留人员的安全”。

在诉讼证据开示期间公布的超过100,000页的文件中，有一封该设施一名护士写给温迪·巴卡（Wendy Baca）的电子邮件，巴卡当时是Wellpath公司（当时提供医疗服务的公司）在阿德兰托设施的代理医疗服务管理员。护士写道，患者在就诊时伴有头痛、皮疹和水疱，“我们认为，这是由于使用的喷雾化学品造成的”。

护士写道：“一些警员在用处理化学品的同一副手套接触皮肤后，也报告‘有灼烧感’。请调查此事，以免我们危及到我们试图保护的每一个人。”

巴卡对该护士的担忧表现出不屑。她将这封电子邮件转发给了 GEO 集团的安全主管，要求其对此进行调查。

“请同时也提醒他们，不要把金属物体插入灯座，不要拿着剪刀奔跑，或者做任何通常凭常识就能避免的事情，”她写道。

马克·安东尼·费雷蒂兹（Mark Anthony Ferretiz）曾是 GEO 集团的一名厨师主管，在阿德兰托设施工作了 14 年，直到 2025 年 3 月离职。他在一份声明中写道，他的团队被告知要像使用“来苏尔（Lysol）”一样喷洒那种红色化学药剂。

“使用时我能感觉到嘴里有喷雾的味道，而且肺部感觉沉重，”他写道。

在某个时间点，该设施的安全经理请来了 HD Supply 公司的工作人员，向员工讲解 HDQ Neutral。在得知该化学药剂的喷洒频率后，其中一名工作人员告诉费雷蒂兹，那是“鼠药”，并且说“那样做会害死人的”。

多年后，像冈萨雷斯·梅纳（Gonzalez Mena）这样的前被拘留者表示，他们至今仍承受着后果。这位前长途卡车司机表示，他在被拘留期间健康状况恶化得非常严重，以至于之后由于视力及呼吸问题，他无法通过必要的体检评估。

为了维持生计，他转向了在线转售。

“我的妻子说，在我被释放后，我再也不是以前那个人了，”他说。“我患上了抑郁症，经常梦见自己还在那里，在那个地方，我想逃出来。”

罕见狂犬病浣熊病例引发警告

作者：凯伦·加西亚（KAREN GARCIA）

在发现 50 多年来的首例狂犬病浣熊病例后，洛杉矶县卫生官员提醒居民及其宠物在接触野生动物时注意安全。

洛杉矶县公共卫生局周一宣布，在西湖村（Westlake Village）的一个后院发现了一只患病的浣熊，但该动物并未对人表现出攻击性，而攻击性通常是感染狂犬病动物的典型行为。

在动物附近的一个工作场所，有几个人以及一只狂犬病疫苗接种记录齐全的狗可能接触到了该疾病。

“在浣熊身上检测到狂犬病是一个重要的提醒，即绝不要触摸、处理或喂食任何野生动物，即使它们看起来很健康，”洛杉矶县卫生官员蒙图·戴维斯（Muntu Davis）博士表示。“请始终与野生动物保持安全距离，如果您遇到看起来生病、受伤或行为异常的动物，请联系当地的动物管制部门。”

根据美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的数据，该工作场所的四个人正在接受狂犬病暴露后预防接种——这可能包括一剂人类狂犬病免疫球蛋白和狂犬病疫苗。

该犬类目前处于隔离状态，官员表示其情况良好。

根据加利福尼亚州公共卫生部的说法，狂犬病是一种罕见但严重的疾病，可以感染人类和动物的大脑。

感染的动物可以通过咬伤将狂犬病传播给另一只动物或人，但这并非唯一的传播方式。

只要感染动物的唾液或组织进入体内，就可能发生暴露，例如通过咬伤、抓伤，或接触伤口以及口、鼻、眼。

州卫生部门表示，在加利福尼亚州，蝙蝠和臭鼬是最容易感染狂犬病的动物。

洛杉矶县上一次检测到患有狂犬病的浣熊是在 1973 年，当时该地区仍存在臭鼬变异株狂犬病。自 1979 年以来，该县再未检测到该特定毒株。

官员表示，最近一次确认感染狂犬病且非蝙蝠的动物是 2014 年在长滩（Long Beach）发现的一只感染了蝙蝠毒株狂犬病的臭鼬。

公共卫生官员正在调查这只浣熊感染的是哪种狂犬病毒株。

公共卫生官员在新闻稿中表示：“根据目前对洛杉矶县狂犬病发生情况的了解，这只浣熊很可能是感染了来自蝙蝠的狂犬病。不过，公共卫生局正在等待随后的变异株检测结果，这可能需要几周时间。”

洛杉矶县的狂犬病暴露更常见地与感染狂犬病的蝙蝠有关。狂犬病蝙蝠的检测数量每年有所波动，但洛杉矶县在十多年来一直呈现稳步上升趋势。

今年到目前为止，洛杉矶县已确认有创纪录的 70 只狂犬病蝙蝠。

研究蝙蝠的专家表示，虽然居民应保持谨慎，但从这些飞行生物身上感染狂犬病的概率仍然非常低。

根据州公共卫生部门的数据，在美国和加利福尼亚州，极少有人类感染狂犬病。全美每年报告的人类死亡病例少于 10 例。自 1980 年以来，加利福尼亚州共有 17 人报告感染狂犬病，最近的一例发生在 2024 年。一名感染狂犬病的康特拉科斯塔县（Contra Costa County）居民于 2012 年去世。

我们能否将这座洛杉矶大桥比作夏日？

莎士比亚大桥横跨富兰克林山（Franklin Hills）社区的一处峡谷，背景是洛杉矶市中心。

国会图书馆 这座桥有八座塔楼。建筑资料将其风格称为哥特复兴式。

[Bridge, from B1] [Bridge, from BI] 位于博伊尔高地（Boyle Heights）与洛杉矶市中心艺术区之间的第六街大桥。其三个开放式拱肩采用波特兰水泥建成。

没人知道“莎士比亚”这个绰号从何而来，但市府官员在1974年将这座桥指定为洛杉矶第126号历史文化古迹，并在20世纪90年代对其进行了加固，以更好地抵御地震。至关重要的一点是，市府工作人员保留了那些迷人且完全没有必要存在的塔楼——在我看来，这些塔楼值得为其单独写一首十四行诗。

“在那个年代，人们在设计这些东西时是花心思的，”市议会助手汤姆·拉邦格（Tom LaBonge）在1988年告诉本报，而在此之后几年，他成为了包含这座大桥在内的该选区的议员（2001-15年）。

自2017年起，邻居们在桥下照料着一座莎士比亚大桥花园。这些邻居（即富兰克林山居民协会，FHRA）还出资维护附近交通岛的景观。

富兰克林山居民协会主席艾莉森·华莱士（Alison Wallace）表示，在大桥建成时，洛杉矶“正逐渐成为一座城市”，“我们试图让自己看起来像样，于是人们兴建了所有这些令人惊叹的公共工程。”

华莱士说，结果就是这座桥梁缓解了社区之间的连接，并“帮助我们成为了一个共同体”。

许多建筑资料将其风格称为哥特复兴式。有些人则看到了摩尔风格的影响。研究员泰格·申克曼（Tiger Schenkman）赞美其具有“活泼且不合时宜的美感”。在《洛杉矶建筑指南》中，作者大卫·盖巴德（David Gebhard）和罗伯特·温特（Robert Winter）认为，大桥华丽的末端“在渴求着圣徒雕像”。

然而，大桥见到的不是圣徒，而是大量的演员和电影剧组。这座桥出现在电影《再次死亡》（Dead Again, 1991）、《我爱你，伙计》（I Love You, Man, 2009）、Netflix剧集《没人想要这个》（Nobody Wants This, 2025年）以及HBO剧集《我爱洛杉矶》（I Love L.A., 同样为2025年）中。我最喜欢的片段是1971年《曼尼克斯》（Mannix）一集中的追逐戏——以2026年的标准来看，节奏慢得令人心焦，而且拍摄时间远在富兰克林山居民协会拆除市府的黑色沥青中隔带并种植绿植之前。

考虑到它在社区中的名气，当我听到竟然如此之少的洛杉矶人知道这座桥时，我感到很惊讶。当查理·瑞安（Charlie Ryan）和汤姆·韦斯特（Thom Vest）在今年年初开始提供“详解洛杉矶”步行导览时，他们原以为迪士尼历史将是其洛斯费利斯（Los Feliz）行程中的热门部分，但这座大桥很快成为了另一个核心元素。

瑞安说，因为报名参加洛斯费利斯之旅的人大多住在其他地方，他们从未走过这座桥，“也不知道它的存在”。“在我带的所有团中，这个景点带给人们的惊喜是最多的。”

但许多住在附近的人与这座桥有着深厚的联系，包括查理·米姆斯（Charley Mims）和雪莉·米姆斯（Shirley Mims），他们于2000年10月21日在那里结婚。

在仪式开始时，雪莉从大桥西端走向东端，查理在那里等待着她。（他们仍住在该社区，并计划参加百年庆典。）

“当你看到这座桥并走过它时，”我的邻居戴夫·麦克唐纳（Dave McDonald）前几天说，“你会觉得回到了家。它就像一座欢迎的灯塔。”

“这是真正的当地人的出行方式，”马特奥·奇佐拉（Matteo Chizzola）说，他四年前搬到洛杉矶，两年前定居在洛斯费利斯。去年，当奇佐拉决定开始经营一个类似成年人版街角柠檬水摊的抹茶摊时，他选择了富兰克林大道和塔尔马奇街交汇处的一块人行道，距离大桥仅两个街区。

“它既美丽又古怪，”他说，“如果你在正确的时间，比如日落时分去，那景色简直不可思议。”

奇佐拉表示，他在周五到周日的摊位经营并没有让他发财，但“这成了能让我展露灿烂笑容的事情”。

他将出席这座桥的百年庆典游行，随行的还有受邀的当地名流，包括卖水果的维克多（他在马歇尔高中附近的一个街角工作了十多年）以及希尔赫斯特大道上深受喜爱的 Yuca's 餐厅的多拉·埃雷拉。

有时，当玛丽·弗朗西斯和我一起在社区散步时，我们会停在桥的中段。向南远眺，可以看到市中心的城市天际线。在桥下的干涸河床（正式名称为 Sacatela 河床）中，可以看到沿莫农街和迈拉大道的私人住宅和院子。你还能看到洛杉矶国际学校（1960年建）的洛斯费利斯校区，这是现代主义建筑师约翰·劳特纳设计的唯一一座学校。

此外还有装饰物。

每隔几个月，玛丽·弗朗西斯就会加入由已故邻居克里斯·布特尔发起的传统，与 FHRA 董事会成员及其他志愿者一起布置装饰：情人节挂心形装饰，圣帕特里克节挂三叶草，六月挂起骄傲月和六月节旗帜，在 7 月 4 日前挂起美国国旗和装饰彩带，以此类推。

大多数这类“换装”都是无缝衔接的。但在 2023 年 6 月，有人撕毁了骄傲月旗帜。邻居们迅速将其补上。旗帜再次被撕毁。邻居们再次补上。这种拉锯战持续了数周。一名嫌疑人被逮捕，获释，随后再次被捕。

“一个月的时间里，几乎每天如此。人们真正团结了起来，”华莱士说。那个破坏者肯定不是故意的，但华莱士认为，他最终让这个社区达到了前所未有的团结。

由 FHRA 组织的周六桥梁庆典将以中午从马歇尔高中（另一个社区哥特复兴式地标）前往大桥的游行开始，届时将有行进乐队、几辆老爷车以及一场宠物狗装扮游行。

在这次短途步行结束之后，莫农街尽头、正对着桥底的位置计划在下午 1 点到 4 点举行派对。届时将提供点心、饮料，有现场音乐、儿童手工、充气城堡，还有几名身着莎士比亚时代服装的演员，以及邻里间亲切互动的场景。

我将全程参与。在这样的时代，每一座桥都值得庆祝。

美国国家航空航天局（NASA）的 SpaceX Crew-12 任务在周四以一次溅落宣告结束，其回收舱安全地溅落在洛杉矶海岸附近，结束了在国际空间站近八个月的任期。

NASA 官员在的一份声明中表示，四名机组人员在空间站内生活和工作了 237 天——在飞行超过 1 亿 英里的同时推进了科学研究，并绕地球运行了 3,792 圈。

官员表示，机组人员在接受医疗筛查后，预计将飞回位于休斯顿的 约翰逊航天中心。

SpaceX Crew-12 任务于 2 月 13, 发射，机组人员在一天后与空间站对接。

机组人员包括 宇航员 Jessica Meir 和 Jack Hathaway，欧洲航天局宇航员 Sophie Adenot 以及俄罗斯航天国家集团（Roscosmos）宇航员 Andrey Fedyaev。

根据 的说法，这是 Meir 和 Fedyaev 的第二次任务，也是 Hathaway 和 Adenot 的第一次任务。官员表示，Meir 完成了四次太空行走——使其职业生涯总数达到七次，成为 女性宇航员中该项记录排名第三的人。

Adenot 完成了三次太空行走，同时成为首位进入轨道前哨站外部的法国女性。

局长 Jared Isaacman 表示，机组人员还帮助推进了将使未来探索以及地球受益的重要研究。

研究工作包括测试干细胞生产、创建并测试静脉注射液体，以及研究引起肺炎的细菌如何导致长期的心脏损伤。机组人员还进行了

ICE拘留中心被曝存在霉菌和幼虫

一名监督员发现阿德兰托中心的政府管理在很大程度上未遵守规定。

作者：RUBEN VIVES

在加利福尼亚州最大的移民拘留中心，一名独立法院监督员首次记录了持续存在的违规行为，其中包括淋浴间内的霉菌和蚋类幼虫、破裂且磨损的床垫、延迟的探视以及一个不足以追踪残障安置情况的系统。

另一名被指派检查阿德兰托美国移民海关执法局（ICE）处理中心医疗条件的监督员告诉法院，其被阻止进入该设施并无法查阅医疗记录。

该报告出炉前三个月，一名联邦法官曾命令该设施进行全面改革，并任命了两名法院监督员来评估那里的情况。

该命令是一项由被拘留者就设施条件发起的集体诉讼的一部分，要求政府提供24小时清洁饮用水、营养且卫生的餐食、适当的医疗护理、整个设施内充足的卫生条件（包括霉菌治理），以及每天至少4小时的户外活动时间。

法院监督员凯莉·瓦斯科（Kellie Wasko）的报告断言，政府在很大程度上仍未遵守法院的命令。该报告重点关注了设施中被称为“东区”和“西区”的两栋建筑。在访问期间，瓦斯科记录到这两栋建筑中的1,708名被拘留者可以使用清洁饮用水和卫生用品，且设施保持清洁。

与此同时，她发现被拘留者使用的自来水经常是温水，且该设施正使用一个水龙头为东区建筑的饮水机补水。另一栋建筑则没有使用适当的过滤系统。

报告称，她还观察到西区“每个普通人群淋浴间”都有霉菌，以及“地板上有幼虫”。她表示东区没有霉菌问题，但浴帘破损且长了霉菌和霉斑。

瓦斯科还观察到空气通风系统需要清理。

“被拘留者告诉我，他们觉得有人总是因为通风管中飘出的颗粒而感冒或生病，”瓦斯科在报告中写道。

她表示，她正在等待带有卡路里数值的菜单，以及访问营养师的报告，以确定被拘留者是否获得了营养餐食。她还提到，该设施正致力于改善户外娱乐时间。

在周三提交给法院的文件中，被拘留者的律师请求联邦法官因政府违反命令而判定其构成民事蔑视，并要求对每项违规行为处以每日$500的罚款，直到问题得到解决。他们请求法官在周二举行听证会。

律师表示，被拘留者抱怨有三到七小时没有水喝，且只能使用尝起来有金属味、闻起来有鱼腥味的自来水。

他们称，至少有一名男子在9月中旬晕倒并因脱水住院，且餐食最早在凌晨4点供应。他们指控工作人员用油漆覆盖霉菌而非将其清除，且户外时间依然受限，法院监督员证实了这些指控。

“政府已经拥有了所有合规的机会，但它选择了不这样做，”代表原告的主要律师事务所 Public Counsel 的主管律师丽贝卡·布朗（Rebecca Brown）表示。“这是对联邦法院命令的蔑视，而且人们因此被送进医院。”

“我们要求政府立即遵守法院的命令，如果它不这样做，我们将请求法院追究其责任。”

在周三提交给法院的文件中，政府告诉法院其正在合规，并开始提供监督员提出的未完成请求。

在给《洛杉矶时报》的电子邮件回复中，一名未具名的美国国土安全部发言人表示，“任何关于阿德兰托ICE处理中心存在劣质条件的指控均不属实。”

“所有被拘留者均获得了适当的膳食、饮用水、医疗救治，并有机会与其家属及律师沟通，”该声明称。“美国移民海关执法局（ICE）的拘留标准高于大多数关押美国公民的美国监狱。”

国土安全部官员表示，其工作人员使用的饮用水与阿德兰托市的居民及企业所使用的水相同。

“我们在该设施的工作人员也与非法移民共同饮用该水源，”该发言人写道。“员工和非法移民可以通过饮水机和冷却水桶 24 / 7 全天候使用该供水系统。”

周三提交的文件标志着围绕该设施环境以及政府未能遵守法院指令的法律斗争进一步升级。

在该设施中，至少有 4 人死亡，目前有近 1,800 人被拘留于此。家属指控该设施的护理不足导致了其亲属的死亡。联邦机构对这些指控予以否认。

阿德兰托设施近期由美国国土安全部（DHS）从私营监狱巨头 GEO 集团（GEO Group Inc.）手中收购。该设施因其环境以及对被拘留移民的对待而长期受到审查，联邦和州政府的监督报告记录了关于被拘留者安全、医疗护理以及隔离措施使用的重复性担忧。

2018 年，监察长办公室的一份联邦报告在发现严重违规行为后，敦促美国移民海关执法局（ICE）对该设施及 GEO 集团的管理进行全面审查。违规行为包括过度限制被拘留者的隔离，以及警卫未能阻止被拘留者用编织床单制作“绞索”。

去年，加利福尼亚州司法部的一份报告发现，包括阿德兰托在内的该州六家私营移民拘留设施在提供囚犯心理健康护理方面不足，需要更好的自杀预防策略，并且对患有心理健康疾病的被拘留者使用了不成比例的武力。

最近，由 ICE 发布后又删除的一批文件显示，该机构自己的调查人员多次发现，人们在美国移民拘留中心因接受低于标准的医疗护理而死亡。

据最早报道该发现的《旧金山纪事报》称，这些内部报告曾短暂出现在该机构的公共记录库中随后被删除，报告调查了 2019 年 9 月至 2026 年 1 月期间在 ICE 监管下死亡的 33 人，其中包括在阿德兰托死亡的人员。

被拘留者和移民权利团体越来越多地通过法院以及绝食等抗议活动，对阿德兰托的环境提出质疑。

今年 1 月，移民权利团体和被拘留者对联邦政府提起了一项联邦集体诉讼，这导致了 7 月份的法院命令。

该月，美国地方法院法官桑夏因·S·赛克斯（Sunshine S. Sykes）批准了一项重新提交的初步禁令申请，命令相关机构对拘留中心进行全面整改。

赛克斯表示，她批准该申请是因为被拘留者在主张政府侵犯其宪法权利和残障权利的诉求上很可能获得成功。

除了改善设施环境外，她还禁止政府将被拘留者置于行政隔离状态，除非出于安全威胁之必要或由被拘留者本人要求。移民倡导团体表示，这种做法仍在继续。监督员的报告则称政府正在遵守该命令。

根据法院命令，为了确保合规，赛克斯命令 ICE 提供访问权限，允许“两名合格的、独立的第三方监督员在本次诉讼期间或直到法院命令终止前”进入监督。

“法院在发布命令时表达得非常明确，认定美国移民海关执法局（ICE）未能履行其确保被拘留人员安全的最低义务。ICE 现在不仅没有遵守禁令，反而通过未能执行多项要求（包括提供清洁饮用水这样最基本的事项），在蔑视司法系统和美国公众，”该诉讼的共同代理律师、人道移民权利联盟执行主任安吉丽卡·萨拉斯（Angelica Salas）表示。

“一个真正履行其宪法义务的政府没有理由害怕公众监督，”同样担任该诉讼共同代理律师的移民辩护法律中心诉讼与倡导主任阿尔瓦罗·M·胡尔塔（Alvaro M. Huerta）表示。“就在上周，又有一人在 ICE 拘留期间死亡，使得在现任政府领导下的死亡人数达到了创纪录的 58 人。ICE 必须立即遵守法院的命令。这关乎人类的生命。”

本周，在极端高温之中，来自不同信仰团体的数十名神职人员完成了一场从阿德兰托设施到洛杉矶的 96 英里朝圣，呼吁结束他们所称的残酷移民政策，并要求关闭所有拘留中心。

好莱坞圣斯蒂芬教堂的杰米·爱德华兹-艾克顿（Jaime Edwards-Acton）牧师表示，此次朝圣是为了让人们关注在阿德兰托及其他设施中死亡的人员。

“我们行走 96 英里，是为了让那些名字在法院呈请书之外的地方被提及，”爱德华兹-艾克顿说。“而且，因为仍有近 2,000 人被拘禁在内部，他们还没有死去，他们的生命仍值得我们为之奋斗。”

音频泄露丑闻让洛杉矶变得更好

时任市议会议员的凯文·德莱昂（KEVIN DE LEÓN）在音频泄露事件导致缺席两个月后，于2022年12月9日返回议事厅。 Myung J. Chun 洛杉矶时报

[接B1页 Arellano] 分别担任市议会主席和洛杉矶县劳工联合会负责人的两人，因在录音中发表种族主义和恐同的胡言乱语而迅速辞职。而当时任期即将届满的塞迪略（Cedillo）以及市议员凯文·德莱昂则拒绝下台，这玷污了他们此前作为进步派领袖而赢得的声誉。

他们试图创造的那个洛杉矶——一个拉丁裔以牺牲黑人社区为代价而崛起，且任何阻碍者都会被碾碎的地方——从未实现。而揭露他们阴谋的这段录音，最终摧毁了那种让太多自私的权力攫取者（包括这四个人在内）获得职业成功的族裔政治手段。

他们之间对话的文字记录现在读起来就像预言——而我们因此受益匪浅。

这场讨论发生在2021年10月，地点在洛杉矶县劳工联合会总部。讨论的大部分内容都在抱怨，尽管拉丁裔居民人数远超黑人，但洛杉矶的拉丁裔多数议会选区以及县内其他一些城市却由黑人领导人代表。

“他妈的，在我看来，所有的席位都应该是拉丁裔的，”赫雷拉（Herrera）说道，他赞扬了一个“我们自己的拉丁裔小党团”的崛起，并认为该党团应该永久掌权。

他和其他人预言，心怀怨恨的黑人政治家在离职前会试图破坏未来的拉丁裔领导人，从而造成马丁内斯（Martinez）所说的“一无所有的贫困拉丁裔选区”。

她指的是重新划分选区的提案，该提案将从南洛杉矶的第9选区（该市拉丁裔比例最高的选区，由黑人议员库伦·普莱斯 [Curren Price] 代表）中切除像纪念体育场（Coliseum）和博览公园（Exposition Park）这样的资产。

“所以他们他妈的在坑CD 9未来的拉丁裔，”德莱昂抱怨道，“这就是多么傲慢，简直太傲慢了。”

但结果并非如此。

第9选区没有失去任何资产。黑人领导人意识到了形势，因此在今年没有派出强有力的黑人候选人来接替任期届满的普莱斯。

这为两名拉丁裔——埃斯图阿尔多·马扎里戈斯（Estuardo Mazariegos）和何塞·乌加特（Jose Ugarte）——进入大选创造了空间。无论11月谁获胜，市议会的黑人成员人数将在63年来首次少于三人。

马扎里戈斯和乌加特都表示，音频泄露丑闻中那些反黑人的阴谋激励他们开展竞选，将黑人和拉丁裔居民视为一个统一的选民群体，这反映了南洛杉矶真实的生存状态，而非城市其他地方的拉丁裔所想象的样子。

在《时报》于2022年10月抛出音频泄露这枚重磅炸弹后，马扎里戈斯参加了第一次市议会会议。他记得塞迪略偷偷窥视愤怒的观众，然后暂时回到了议会的后室。

“任何社区都不应该为了让另一个社区获得权力而失去权力，”马扎里戈斯说，如果他获胜，他将成为第一位在议会任职的中美洲移民。“当我们共同建设时，我们的力量才会增长。”

曾是普莱斯高级助手之一的乌加特表示赞同。他认为，作为一名拉丁裔议员在南洛杉矶领导的最佳方式是“尊重前辈，谦卑地倾听当今工作者，并理解当[黑人和拉丁裔居民]共同前进时，第9选区才是最强大的。”

乌加特（Ugarte）出生于墨西哥瓦哈卡州，如果他胜选，将成为洛杉矶首位原住民市议员。考虑到瓦哈卡人曾遭受一些最恶毒的侮辱，这将是对那段音频泄露事件一个极具讽刺意味的收尾。马丁内斯将他们描述为“矮小黝黑的人”，并且是 feos——丑陋的。塞迪略（Cedillo）开玩笑说他们是“小家伙”，而埃雷拉（Herrera）则嘲讽他们是“印第安人”（indios）。

现在谁在笑？

“丑陋四人组”还花时间抱怨尼蒂亚·拉曼（Nithya Raman），当时她正处于市议员第一年任期的尾声。2020年，她击败了一名在任议员，成为首位民主社会主义者市议员。

在录音期间，竞争对手正试图通过重新划定边界来削弱拉曼的权力，正如德莱昂（De León）所描述的那样，将她的选区“放入搅拌机中，左右切碎”。

“她不是我们的盟友，”塞迪略说，“她不会帮我们的。她的选区不是我们可以依赖的选区。”

得给塞迪略和他那些 pendejo 伙伴们一点信用：他们当时已经将拉曼和其他民主社会主义者视为一股新兴力量，尽管他们同时在贬低美国民主社会主义者（DSA）的机会。德莱昂称拉曼的政治主张“仅仅关乎她个人”。埃雷拉将当时还名不见经传、旨在取代市议员米奇·奥法雷尔（Mitch O'Farrell）的工会组织者雨果·索托-马丁内斯（Hugo Soto-Martínez）斥为“孩子”。努里·马丁内斯（Nury Martinez）在咯咯笑着谈论这位首次参选者对塞迪略的挑战时，漫不经心地读错了尤尼塞斯·埃尔南德斯（Eunisses Hernandez）的名字。

如果塞迪略和德莱昂没有如此深信自己的政治生命永恒，他们本可以帮助

遏制 DSA 的崛起，而这正是让洛杉矶自由派领导人如此苦恼的事情。然而，埃尔南德斯在 2022 年的一场震惊选举中击败了塞迪略，而索托-马丁内斯在秋季获胜。另一位民主社会主义者伊莎贝尔·胡拉多（Ysabel Jurado）则在 2024 年击败了德莱昂。

这些胜利为 DSA-LA 支持的候选人马里莎·罗伊（Marissa Roy）今年强力竞选市检察长铺平了道路。马扎里戈斯（Mazariegos）也得到了 DSA-LA 的背书，该组织目前支持拉曼竞选市长，对抗在任的凯伦·巴斯（Karen Bass）。

该组织应该给塞迪略和德莱昂送上红玫瑰花束，作为对他们协助其崛起之举的感谢（gracias）。我们所有人都应该感谢这四个人，因为他们加速了孕育他们的旧拉丁裔政治机器的崩溃，而这些机器让这座城市在部落主义中停滞太久。

现在，拉丁裔政治家必须凭借他们为所有洛杉矶市民服务的资历来竞选，而不仅仅是凭借他们的拉丁身份（latinidad）。索托-马丁内斯和埃尔南德斯在 6 月的初选中直接赢得连任，因为他们的选民欣赏他们那种关注生活质量问题而非意识形态革命的“下水道社会主义”方法。与此同时，“奇卡诺恐龙”（Chicanosauruses）在敦促拉丁裔支持巴斯时，正随着权力的削弱而喘息。这个信息似乎没有产生效果：最近一项伯克利 IGS / 时报的民调发现，45% 的拉丁裔选民支持拉曼，而支持巴斯的比例为 21%，34% 未决定。

拉丁裔选民盲目相信拉丁裔领导者的日子已经一去不复返了。在马丁内斯及其团队证明了种族政治的愚蠢之后，为什么还要费心？

在录音开始不久，马丁内斯抱怨说，选民和媒体似乎总是原谅陷入丑闻的黑人政治家，而拉丁裔却没有得到同样的对待。

“他们永远不会罢休，”她抱怨道，“他们永远不会为我们翻篇。”

洛杉矶确实翻篇了。现在，“丑陋四人组”唯一的遗产就是他们那段对话的“巨大残骸”——引用《奥兹曼迪亚斯》（Ozymandias）的结尾——被永远地遗弃在腐朽之中。

希尔顿可耻的攻击

[接B1页Chabria] 处理那些“坏”的人。对我来说，这就是事情变得复杂的地方：我同意希尔顿的观点，即出生在美国是一件大事，成为公民是一个自豪点。这确实很重要。但我也同意阿雷利亚诺的观点，即希尔顿的攻击是卑劣的。

在这两点之间，隐藏着在这个紧张且丑陋的时刻关于美国移民的真相，以及加利福尼亚州在理解这一问题上与美国其他地区的差异之大——以及为什么这种差异至关重要。

加州的拉丁裔通过人数、历史和艰苦努力，建立起了政治和社会权力，其规模在全美几乎没有其他移民群体能够企及。在“黄金之州”的这种独特地位，使得我所称的“移民神话的魔幻现实主义”得以繁荣，这对过去和现在的几代人来说是一份美好的礼物，但在这个伟大国家的其他地区，这种神话并没有得到同样广泛的认可。

我坚信，并不存在所谓的“真实”移民故事。

许多（如果不是大多数的话）移民在离开时都留下了痛苦——也许是家人，也许是战争或虐待。但如果仅凭希望来平衡这种沉重的负担，并将其传递给后代、向陌生人解释，这太沉重了。因此，移民故事随着时间的推移而被淡化，创伤变成了冒险，冰冷的事实被模糊成了有趣的迷思。

这并不意味着讲述者在撒谎。这让他们显得像个凡人。

在我父亲的神话中，他会告诉你，他前往美国的旅程始于汉弗莱·鲍嘉。青少年时期，他会逃课去印度北部艾哈迈达巴德的一家电影院看《卡萨布兰卡》等黑白电影，那是很久以前的事了，当时电影放映中还需要中场休息来更换胶片卷。他被白色礼服和酷飒的金发女郎所迷住，开始申请美国的大学奖学金——最终凭借其在滑雪方面的“天赋”获得了一所犹他州学校的全额奖学金，尽管他声称自己精通这项运动，但实际上从未尝试过。

我的姑姑和叔叔们对这个我父亲热爱讲述的故事有的质疑，有的接纳。我不知道这有多真实，但我知道这一点：我父亲前往美国的旅程并非始于鲍嘉。它始于卡拉奇市，在英国人在地图上划线创建巴基斯坦之前，那里还属于印度。战争爆发了，印度教徒杀害穆斯林，穆斯林杀害印度教徒。我父亲当时还是个孩子，在人群中与祖父走散了。他眼睁睁地看着暴徒杀害了他的祖父，然后独自步行数百英里逃往安全地带。他最终在难民营与家人团聚，但他的印度永远消失了。

取而代之的，是他对鲍嘉式美国的向往。当他最终到达这里时，他将过去埋在犹他州的积雪之下，成为了一个优秀的滑雪者，甚至加入了滑雪巡逻队，并且在近 35 年的时间里从未提及过他的祖父。

就像几乎每个移民的子女一样，我既热爱我父亲的真相，也热爱他的神话，因为两者结合在一起，就是我家庭和美国的故事。但我父亲是印度人，并且

GENARO MOLINA 洛杉矶时报

ZAKEYA BROOKINGS 拥抱共和党州长候选人史蒂夫·希尔顿。 民主党候选人哈维尔·贝塞拉上周在里弗赛德向选民发表竞选演说。 GINA FERAZZI 洛杉矶时报

最终定居在俄亥俄州，那里与加利福尼亚州截然不同。那时那里没有规模较大的印度社区（尽管后来规模显著增长，包括跟随我父亲而来的数十名家庭成员），而且除了同化之外，对任何其他东西都几乎没有容忍度。我父亲对此并不在意。他最想要的就是成为美国人——尽管他在数十年间一直持有绿卡，直到在第一个特朗普政府时期的恐惧促使他申请了公民身份。

就像贝塞拉的父亲一样，对于我的父亲来说，成为一名移民是一种心态，一种经历，而非一种官方身份。如果我的父亲在加利福尼亚州，也许他会保留更多印度人的身份。如果贝塞拉的父亲在俄亥俄州，也许他保留的过去会更少。

这两种观点都没有让这两个人变得更像或更不像美国人——但这两个人讲述的关于自身身份的不同神话，定义了加利福尼亚州与美国其他地区之间的差异。

希尔顿对贝塞拉父亲的攻击从来不是针对加利福尼亚观众的，因为在这里，拉丁裔在地理和身份上的流动性体验占据着中心舞台。他的攻击始终是针对俄亥俄州以及福克斯新闻（Fox News）这类地方的，在那些地方，对同化的期待依然占据主导地位（问问斯普林菲尔德的海地人就知道了），而且希尔顿的媒体受众——以及他在11月落败后（他几乎肯定会落败）的未来——就身处其中。毕竟，希尔顿多年来一直主持自己的保守派电视节目。

希尔顿对加利福尼亚州棕色皮肤移民的攻击看似脱离实际，实际上是对其支持者的深思熟虑的迎合——

那些倾向于选择“好”的、恭顺的、心怀感激的移民（就像希尔顿自己那样），而非那些对自身身份的每一个部分都感到自豪且自信的加州拉丁裔的右翼美国人。

很抱歉，加州拉丁裔们，但这次移民问题上的 MAGA 时刻与犯罪记录甚至法律地位无关。这完全关乎态度，而 MAGA 讨厌你们拥有如此强烈的态度。希尔顿的攻击精准击中了其右翼群体的痛点，因为对他们而言，不将美国公民身份置于核心位置就是对美国的拒绝，而这种背叛正是他们并不那么隐秘地担心所有移民都共同拥有的特质。

而这里的反转在于——MAGA 是对的；移民确实很复杂。

我的父亲可能是那些“好”移民中的一员，拥抱美国的一切，对自己的过去保持沉默。但他始终对自己的家庭和出身深感自豪，并将这种自豪传承了下来——许多其他“好”移民也是如此。

在完全拥抱美国人身份的同时，也珍视移民的神话与真相，这是可能的，甚至很普遍。在热爱这个国家的同时，心中也保留着另一个国家，无论是大声地还是安静地，这都是可能的。不存在唯一的移民经历，也不存在成为真正美国人的唯一方式。希尔顿作为一名移民以及移民之子，肯定知道这一点。

但当移民看到复杂性时，MAGA 的追随者看到的只有背信弃义和不忠，这让他们感到恐惧和愤怒——从而使其容易被那些能够将其粉饰、扭曲到恰好显得合理的人所利用。

而希尔顿非常擅长让自己显得合理。

前一谜题答案

桥牌

作者：弗兰克·斯图尔特 (FRANK STEWART)

亨利七世的财政大臣约翰·莫顿 (John Morton) 认为，如果一个人生活优渥，说明他有大量资金可以捐赠；如果他生活俭朴，则说明他一定有私房钱。这就是所谓的“莫顿之叉”（Morton's Fork）。

莫顿的名字在“莫顿之叉政变”中得以延续：即你强迫对手处于一个无论选择哪个选项都会失败的局面。

在今天的四 spades（四 spades 约局）中，西家出方块 A 和 Q，希望建立第二个方块 tricks。南家计算出有九个 tricks —— 六个主牌，一个方块，两个梅花 —— 并且意识到，只要能猜中哪个防守方持有梅花 A，他就总能成功。在第二轮 Trick 中，他从明手出了一张低方块，推迟了弃

咨询埃里克

亲爱的埃里克：我的父亲去世了，我为他举行了一个小型的追思会。这次经历对我来说很痛苦，因为我父亲并不是个很好的人。

在仪式上，我遇到了我的同父异母姐姐，由于我已经 43 年没见过她，我没认出她来。

她来参加葬礼是为了确认她的父亲已经死了，并就她母亲（我的继母）的事情与我对质。

我的继母将她对丈夫的愤怒和沮丧发泄在我身上。她经常扇我耳光，对我并不友善。

在葬礼上，我的同父异母姐姐告诉我，我精神不稳定，而关于被扇耳光的记忆都是谎言。我愤怒至极。

我的继母在不久后去世，于是我送了一大束花和一张卡片。随后我在一个储物单元里整理时，发现了许多继母的照片（得体且美丽的肖像照），我把这些照片寄给了我的同父异母姐姐。

我非常愤怒，我的同父异母姐姐竟然来到一个她所憎恨之人的葬礼上，就为了“纠正”我的认知。我想写封信告诉她我的看法。我还发现了她们母亲一些极其淫秽的色情照片，在我那份体贴的礼物中我没有包含这些。现在我觉得想把这些照片寄给她。那位圣洁的母亲其实并不那么圣洁。我脑子里充满了愤怒的想法。您有什么建议吗？

一张 A 的“千言”卡片，以及他手中的将牌。

如果南家将梅花 A 判定在西家，他接下来可以出梅花 4。如果西家拿走 A，南家将赢得第三轮梅花技巧；如果西家出小牌，明手（dummy）的 K 获胜，随后南家在方块 K 上弃掉梅花 Q，并在两轮红心和一轮方块中失手。

如果庄家认为东家持有梅花 A，南家可以出将牌给明手，然后回出梅花 3，达到同样的效果。

南家的打法是在猜测吗？

西家没有参与开标，他已经展示了方块 A-Q-J，且为了他的加倍（double）肯定持有另一张 A。如果西家持有梅花 A，南家将成功，因为东家将持有红心 A。危险在于西家持有红心 A。

亲爱的 Words：把照片扔掉吧。寄出它们不会让你感觉更好，也不会治愈你童年时受到的伤害。

你的成长过程中充满了创伤，这不是你的错。你的同父异母姐姐似乎仅仅为了指责你而来到葬礼，这很不公平。从你的讲述来看，这似乎并不是针对你个人的。试着将家庭中的许多方面视为与你无关，这可能会有所帮助。

你的同父异母兄弟姐妹与他们的母亲有自己的关系，并认同他们所相信的任何叙事。这种叙事对他们来说似乎并未完全奏效，因为你的姐姐觉得在 43 年后有必要接触你，以纠正你的叙事。即使写信，这也是你无法改变或影响的事情。

给她写信可能会有帮助，但请先写几个草稿。你可能会发现，写作的过程本身才是你真正需要的，而不是将其寄出。

亲爱的埃里克：我的女儿婚姻幸福，有两个可爱的孩子。我的女婿是五个孩子中的一个。

最近，我的女婿意外发现他被排除在母亲的遗嘱之外。

他的父亲在他们结婚前六个月去世。此前

如果南家从明手出第一张梅花，你就可以直接击溃防守方。

从未发生过任何会导致如此伤人且令人震惊之决定的冲突或情况。

尽管他的母亲就住在附近，但她对孙辈几乎不感兴趣。我的女儿和女婿一直努力让她参与节日、生日等活动。

他无法抹除或理解他现在所获知的关于她遗嘱的情况。他是否应该在为时太晚之前告诉她，并询问她原因？

被遗忘者

亲爱的“被遗忘者”：是的，他应该这样做，哪怕仅仅是为了获得在她去世后将无法得到的明确答复。

他的目标不应该是说服她修改遗嘱。他的目标应该是尽可能地理解他母亲的想法，并确定他们的关系中是否存在某种他未察觉的阻碍或冒犯。

他可以这样开始对话，用一些简单的话，比如：“我不小心看到了这份文件，而我没有被提及这一事实似乎向我传递了一个信号。这是你打算传递的信号吗？如果是这样，我们能否利用这段时间详细谈谈，好让我明白原因？”

CSC 调查可能的违规行为

诺瓦克·德约科维奇向胡伯特·赫尔卡奇回球，后者在 87 分钟内击败了这位 24 次大满贯冠军。 SHI TANG Getty Images

电讯报道

大学体育委员会（CSC）正在调查 5 到 10 所“四大强力会议”（Power Four conference）成员学校在向球员支付款项方面可能存在的违规行为。

根据率先报道该查询情况的 CBS 体育网，相关问题涉及可能违反每所学校 $21.500 万 的球员分成支出上限，以及允许球员规避该上限的第三方付款。

一名熟悉调查过程的人士周五告诉美联社，CSC 已向 5 到 10 所学校提出了询问，但这并不确认正在进行全面调查。由于相关案件尚未公开，该人士在匿名条件下发表评论。

CSC 的主要职能之一是监督与所谓“关联实体”（即与各自学校开展业务的人员和公司）达成的第三方交易，以确保这些交易的估值公平且具有正当的商业目的。

由于体育部门利用第三方 NIL（姓名、形象、肖像权）来规避上限，据报道，部分学校今年在美式足球阵容上的支出高达 5000万美元。

CBS 体育网的报道基于多个匿名来源以及公开记录请求。该报道未点名被调查的学校，与美联社沟通的人士也未透露学校名称。

等等。

德约科维奇在上海赛事中出局

诺瓦克·德约科维奇在经历了北京的胜利后，在上海遭遇震惊，在直落两盘的情况下负于胡伯特·赫卡赫。

这位 24 次大满贯冠军在持续 87 分钟的第二轮比赛中以 6-4, 6-3 告负。

此前在上海大师赛中，美网亚军本·谢尔顿在庆祝 24 岁生日之际，通过击败丹尼尔·阿尔特迈尔成功晋级，头号种子亚历山大·兹维列夫也同样晋级。谢尔顿以 6-3, 7-6 (6) 战胜了阿尔特迈尔。但德约科维奇的出局成为了头条新闻，此前他在本周早些时候赢得了中国公开赛，这是他职业生涯的 102 个冠军。

“北京很棒，但在这里出局太早了，不过没关系，”德约科维奇说。“我在北京度过了愉快的一周，我期待能稍微休息一下，为室内赛做好准备。”

艾莉丝·梅尔滕斯以 7-6 (0), 6-3 击败伊加·斯瓦泰克，锁定中国公开赛半决赛席位。梅尔滕斯的这次晋级意味着她在北京已经击败了三位大满贯冠军，此前她先后战胜了叶莱娜·奥斯塔彭科和科科·高夫。她用 1 小时 50 分钟的时间直落两盘，击败了六次大满贯冠军、种子排名第 8 的斯瓦泰克。“有时你就是会在某项赛事中逐渐进入状态，”梅尔滕斯说道，这是她自 2021 年以来首次进入 WTA 1000 赛单打半决赛。

在一次混乱的排位赛中，马克斯·维斯塔潘夺得了一级方程式新加坡冲刺赛的杆位，而乔治·罗素则抓住机会缩小了与积分榜领先者基米·安东内利之间的差距。维斯塔潘比罗素快 0.120 秒。

佛罗里达老将前锋布拉德·马尚需要六周时间从左腿伤势中恢复，主教练保罗·莫里斯确认，他应该能在 11 月的某个时间恢复在美洲豹队的比赛。... 32 岁的后卫马特·邓巴表示，在效力于五支球队、经历了 13 个 NHL 赛季后，他决定退役。邓巴最后效力于匹兹堡企鹅队，此前曾在明尼苏达、达拉斯、亚利桑那和坦帕湾效力。

布里安娜·斯图尔特和纽约自由队正在将注意力从第二场比赛以及加时赛最后几秒是否拥有暂停的混乱中转移出来。这位自由队球星知道，纠结于她与裁判的讨论以及裁判在给记者的汇总报告中所说内容之间的差异是没有意义的。“我真的不想过多谈论这件事，我的主要焦点是第三场比赛，但我可以这么说，球员和裁判之间需要有尊重，而为了获得尊重，你需要建立信任，”斯图尔特说。... 前湖人队球员勒布朗·詹姆斯在今年夏天以自由球员身份加盟费城，开启他创 NBA 纪录的第 24 个赛季，他在 76 人队的首秀中贡献了 10 分、5 次助攻和 4 个篮板，球队在季前赛中以 118-104 负于迈阿密。

基思·米切尔以 6 杆低于标准杆的 65 杆，与首轮领先者雅各布·布里奇曼共同领跑 PGA 湾流经典赛（Baycurrent Classic）积分榜。在阳光明媚的一天，布里奇曼在位于日本神奈川的横滨乡村俱乐部以 68 杆完赛，加上他首轮的 63 杆。格兰特·福雷斯特以一个柏忌开局，但在第二轮表现强劲，凭借 6 个小鸟球在马德里举行的西班牙公开赛中取得了 1 杆的领先优势。福雷斯特以 4 杆低于标准杆的 67 杆领先于乔尔·吉尔巴赫和康纳·赛姆。在冠军赛中，瑞安·阿莫尔以 9 杆低于标准杆的 63 杆，在佛罗里达州棕榈海岸海滨度假村举行的 Constellation Furyk and Friends 赛事首轮中，以 1 杆优势领先于保罗·戈多斯和罗德·潘普林。

南加州大学 (USC) 报告

特洛伊人在宾州州立大学的压力下寻求沉稳

作者：乔丹·普恩特 (JORDAN PUENTE)

排名第 19 的南加州大学 (USC) 拥有更好的战绩、全国排名以及比宾州州立大学 (Penn State) 更出色的天赋。

然而，当特洛伊人 (5-1, 2-1) 在本周六（太平洋夏季时间下午 4:30）前往“快乐谷”参加一场预计将吸引超过 109,000 名球迷的“白色风暴”比赛时，尼塔尼狮 (3-2, 0-2 大十联盟) 却被看好能以 $1\frac{1}{2}$ 分的优势获胜。

为什么？

特洛伊人在赛季开始前被预期将在林肯·赖利 (Lincoln Riley) 任期内首次进入大学橄榄球季后赛，但他们在应对压力方面一直较为吃力。

大一防守端卢克·瓦夫尔 (Luke Wafle) 表示，特洛伊人已经为狂热的观众做好了准备，他们利用全新的先进音响系统播放噪音，使得在练习期间很难听到声音。

“那个扬声器声音很大，”瓦夫尔说。“你在整个校园里都能听到。他们第一次进行声音测试时把我吓到了，当时我正走出教室。”

他说，教练们一直在向防守球员提供如何应对球迷噪音的技巧。

线卫塔梅尔·罗宾逊 (Ta'Mere Robinson) 从宾州州立大学转学到南加州大学，拥有在最高分贝的快乐谷比赛的经验。他说，沟通是带走胜利的关键。

“每个人的注意力都必须集中，”罗宾逊说。“我们将扬声器开到了最大，所以我们已经为此做好了准备。”

南加州大学从未在宾州州立大学获胜，曾在 1993 年以 21-20 告负，并在 1994 年以 38-14 告负。

特洛伊人必须在应对观众噪音之外做得更多，才能在那里取得他们的首场胜——

利

旗帜之战

违规罚款在南加州大学的问题清单中排名很高。特洛伊人在上周对阵华盛顿队的比赛中被判了 9 次违规，导致他们损失了 94 码，其中包括一次非法阵型罚款，这帮助了哈士奇队通过一次长距离达阵传球得分。

在逆转获胜后，赖利表示特洛伊人必须展现出更强的纪律性。

“这一点必须改进，”他说。

南加州大学在全国排名第 82 位，场均 6.83 次违规。在起用那些来自排名第 1 的招募班级的大一新生时，出现一些错误在所难免，但这些违规发生在对南加州大学极其糟糕的时刻——延长了对手的进攻推进，并摧毁了特洛伊人冲向达阵区的努力。

防守压力

上周，加里·帕特森 (Gary Patterson) 在新闻发布席指挥防守，而赛季开始时他是在场边指挥。

这是特洛伊人为提高防守端的沟通、速度和执行力所采取的众多努力之一。

截锋贾基姆·斯图尔特 (Jahkeem Stewart) 表示，没有球队在赛季开始时能执行得完美无缺，但他期待在对阵宾州州立大学时有所进步。

“我们正慢慢开始达到我们想要的状态，”斯图尔特说。“我们打得很有凝聚力，我觉得进入这个周末我们必须保持这种凝聚力。”

帕特森是一位以防守稳健著称的名人堂教练，他本应帮助赖利解决特洛伊人最大的弱点，但转变过程并不迅速，也不顺畅。

然而，防守端的许多方面在对阵华盛顿队时取得了突破，南加州大学记录了赛季最高的 5 次擒杀，而此前前五场比赛仅有 8 次。

斯图尔特表示，自由发挥将帮助防守端在成功的基础上进一步提升。

“尤其是作为防守线，关键词就是自由发挥和共同作战，”斯图尔特说。“我们还没有达到想要的状态，尤其是作为防守线。我们希望在赛季结束时成为全国最好的防守线之一。”

斯图尔特说，看到在德克萨斯基督教大学执教 22 个赛季的帕特森信任他的防守线球员去完成进攻，这感觉很棒。

“[帕特森]是一位伟大的教练，”斯图尔特说。“他工作勤奋，我们只要汲取他的工作精神，我们将成就伟大的事业。”

迈阿瓦迎接挑战

特洛伊人限制敌对观众影响的最佳方式就是在进攻端打好。四分卫杰登·迈阿瓦（Jayden Maiava）在每场比赛中都适应了不同的接球手组合，他必须在压力之下自信地运行进攻。

“[丹尼斯]·西蒙斯（Dennis Simmons）教练在让队员们做好准备方面做得非常好，”迈阿瓦说道，并指出接球手组一直在应对伤病问题。“我们要有‘接替者顶上’的心态，而且我们都认同同一个目标，那就是赢得比赛。”

迈阿瓦在对阵华盛顿队的比赛中，赛季码数最低（245码），达阵传球最少（一个），他深知自己在对阵宾夕法尼亚州立大学时需要打出好表现。

“绝对要带来能量，”他说。

许多人仍对公爵队输给鸭队的比赛记忆犹新

[UCLA, from B12] 新环境。”

除了国家排名，以及这两支前 Pac-12 竞争对手之间的悠久历史和两队争夺大学橄榄球季后赛（College Football Playoff）的机会之外，许多球员和助理教练在跟随主教练鲍勃·切斯尼（Bob Chesney）加盟棕熊队之前，仍对去年 12 月俄勒冈队在公爵队首次参加季后赛时将其淘汰的记忆记忆犹新。

鸭队在面对希奇勒（Hitschler）的防线时拿下的 51 分和 514 码总码数，让希奇勒感到不服输。

“我们将继续保持激进，继续寻找方法为我们的进攻创造机会，以便在有利的球场位置拿到球，”希奇勒说。“但我们必须处于最佳状态，因为无论四分卫是谁，他们都会让你付出代价。他们会让你为你的错误买单，并且他们总能找到方法创造出他们一贯拥有的爆发力，我们必须限制他们。”

尽管俄勒冈队的四分卫丹特·摩尔（Dante Moore）——他在季后赛面对希奇勒的防线时取得了 313 码传球码数和 5 个总达阵——因 9 月 26 日对阵南加州大学（USC）时遭受的头部受伤而被判定无法参加周六的比赛，但鸭队的迪兰·赖奥拉（Dylan Raiola）并非典型的替补。

他在担任内布拉斯加大学首发球员的两年里传球 4,819 码并完成 31 次达阵，随后在鸭队首秀中 11 传 11 中并有 3 次达阵传球；之后在纪念体育场 41-27 击败南加州大学的比赛中，他在接替摩尔后贡献了 289 码和两次达阵传球。

“当你看到他上场完成那场比赛并做出那些表现时，你会发现这两个人之间没有巨大的差距。他们都非常、非常出色，”切斯尼说。“迪兰显然在南加州大学那场比赛的最后阶段有机会让自己处于一个能赢得队友信任的位置，而队友也能对他产生信心。我认为他的传球时机很准，精度很高。他让那些球员能够去争抢球，我相信现在该计划对他有很强的认同感。”

虽然赖奥拉是一名经过验证的传球手，但周围的武器增强了他的影响力。在后场，希奇勒称迪尔·希尔二世（Dierre Hill Jr.）和乔登·戴维森（Jordon Davison）为全美最强的跑卫组合。虽然棕熊队到目前为止与一些强大的后卫正面交锋，但他们尚未面对像希尔和戴维森这样的一二号组合，这可能会给原本坚固的冲球防线带来麻烦。

赖奥拉的武器库包括强力的接球手，尤其是鸭队排名前两位的外接手达科里恩·摩尔（Dakorien Moore）和埃文·斯图尔特（Evan Stewart），两人合计贡献了 512 码和 7 次达阵。

切斯尼将斯图尔特称为对位上的“噩梦”，并补充说俄勒冈队将通过让他出任槽位（slot）并为希奇勒的防线制造错位，以多种方式将球传给他。切斯尼还表示，达科里恩·摩尔的极速使他能够撕开防线深处，鸭队将毫不犹豫地尝试长传，测试棕熊队的后防线。

如果棕熊队像对阵普渡大学（Purdue）时那样被情绪左右——当时四分卫瑞安·布朗（Ryan Browne）传球 378 码并完成两次达阵——那么希奇勒的后防线可能会度过艰难的一天。

棕熊队最大的头疼可能来自身高 6 英尺 5 英寸的近端锋贾马里·约翰逊（Jamari Johnson），他在对阵南加州大学时接球 7 次，获得 159 码，尤其是考虑到 UCLA 的三名首发角卫身高都低于 6 英尺。

“我们去年面对过这位近端锋，他很特别。他们在切换不同的人员配置方案方面做得非常好，如果你使用更大的阵型，他们会把你拉开。他们会尝试利用那个近端锋寻找对位机会，”切斯尼说。“他能接住周围所有的球；他绝对惊人。”

随着爆发力十足的鸭队进攻组准备在主场奥岑体育场（Autzen Stadium）作战，棕熊队能否信任战术手册可能是最重要的。

“无论我们在哪里，足球就是足球，”五年级进攻线球员霍尔·施密特（Hall Schmidt）说道。“我们没有对付俄勒冈队的神奇药水，但我们绝对拥有彼此，并且拥有我们将要使用的工具。”

罗纳尔多·博拉尼奥斯（RONALDO BOLAÑOS） 洛杉矶时报 斯库特·杰克逊（SCOOTER Jackson）和加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）在与普渡大学的比赛中表现得充满激情；有时甚至过于激情。

东契奇与里夫斯在湖人获胜中展现默契

作者：布罗德里克·特纳（Broderick Turner）

卢卡·东契奇（Luka Doncic）与奥斯汀·里夫斯（Austin Reaves）之间的纽带极其真实。

尽管周四晚上只是一场季前赛，但东契奇和里夫斯证明了为什么他们能组成 NBA 中最具活力的后场组合之一。

在对阵萨克拉门托国王队的第一次进攻中，湖人这对组合就实现了联动：里夫斯在东契奇切入篮下时为其传球，东契奇在得分的同时被对方犯规。

在湖人队于 Crypto.com 竞技场以 114-110 获胜的比赛中，两人均出场 25 分钟。东契奇 16 投 6 中，砍下 23 分。里夫斯在缺席前两场比赛后迎来了他的首场季前赛，他 7 投 2 中得到 8 分，并贡献 8 次助攻和 5 个篮板。

东契奇和里夫斯都给球迷带来了令人兴奋的时刻。东契奇的高光时刻出现在第二节，他接到了桑德罗·马穆凯拉什维利（Sandro Mamukelashvili）的传球，命中了一记 31 英尺外的单脚三分球，后者贡献了 19 分。

里夫斯的时刻出现在第二节末段，他通过一次漂亮的犹豫步动作冻结了防守球员埃马纽埃尔·夏普（Emanuel Sharp），随后沿着底线轻松上篮得分。

湖人队主教练 JJ·雷迪克（JJ Redick）解释了为什么东契奇和里夫斯在共同比赛期间关系如此密切。

“他们之间有很好的化学反应，”雷迪克说，“我认为这只是他们彼此欣赏的自然方式。他们喜欢一起打球。我认为让他们在一起意味着场上自动拥有了两名持球者。我觉得这是目前 NBA 中被低估的一部分……即在任何时候场上都有两到三名持球者。”

甚至东契奇的喋喋不休也回到了赛季中期的状态，他在第三节还剩 6 分 48 秒时被判一次技术犯规。

等等。

中锋沃克·凯斯勒（Walker Kessler，手指伤势）和后卫科林·塞克斯顿（Collin Sexton，下肢伤势）均连续第三场缺席季前赛，而前锋扎伊尔·威廉姆斯（Ziaire Williams，未公开伤势）连续第二场缺席。卡梅隆·卡尔（Cameron Carr，下肢伤势）、道尔顿·克内克特（Dalton Knecht，未公开伤势）和亚瑟·卡卢马（Arthur Kaluma，下肢伤势）也未出场。凯斯勒是湖人队从犹他爵士队引进的重要球员，他一直在治疗在训练期间撞击篮板后导致的手指伤势。“我们明天得检查一下。……这并不令人担心。他会在季前赛中出场的，”雷迪克说。雷迪克表示，威廉姆斯有“一些酸痛，但并不是我们担心的那样”。……湖人队签下了 6 英尺 10 英寸的前锋拉斐尔·卡斯特罗（Rafael Castro），随后裁掉了前锋威廉·凯尔三世（William Kyle III）。

守护者队延续生命，回归威廉姆斯

电讯报道

面对连续第二天被淘汰的危机，何塞·拉米雷斯（José Ramírez）和克利夫兰守护者队再次做出回应。

“这支球队所做的一切，正是我们擅长的，”这位全明星三垒手说道。

拉米雷斯击出本垒打并打入三分，克利夫兰在周四晚上以 9-5 击败芝加哥白袜队，将他们的美国联盟分区系列赛（ALDS）推向周六的决定性第五场比赛。胜者将在周一与坦帕湾光芒队交手，开启美国联盟冠军赛（ALCS）。

帕特里克·贝利（Patrick Bailey）也击出了本垒打，而第二场比赛的先发投手加文·威廉姆斯（Gavin Williams）从牛棚出战，拿下了最后三个出局数。在季后赛主场遭遇两场失利后，守护者队在芝加哥连续第二天获胜。美国联盟中区冠军球员乔·阿德尔（Jo Adell）在第六局的六分攻势中击出了一支两分单打。

“这支球队全年都在给出回应，”经理斯蒂芬·沃格特（Stephen Vogt）表示，“我们经常讨论这一点——我们会反击。”

沃格特在周五宣布，威廉姆斯将担任第五场比赛的先发投手。虽然这位右投手按照常规休息时间本就计划在第五场投球，但沃格特表示，第四场比赛对牛棚的高度依赖是一个考量因素。

威廉姆斯表示，赛后他经过沃格特的办公室，告诉这位执教第三年的经理他已经准备好出战了。

“现在身体感觉很好。我整个上午都在训练室里，进行调整。但实际上这就像平常的一天，”威廉姆斯说道。他在常规赛中取得了 14-8 的战绩，并以 248 次三振领跑美国联盟。

克利夫兰队正寻求成为自 20ff 纽约洋基队对阵（没错，正是对阵）克利夫兰队以来，首支在五场三胜制季后赛系列赛中从 0-2 落后局面反超的球队。在五场三胜制的季后赛系列赛中，获得 2-0 领先的球队在 93 次中赢得了 83 次。

又是“酿酒师军团”对阵“蓝色军团”

[道奇队，接B12版]

雅各布·米西奥罗夫斯基（Jacob Misiorowski）是国联赛扬奖（Cy Young Award）的热门人选，他将担任国联冠军赛（NLCS）第 1 场的先发投手。

“我只想要混乱，”道奇队棒球运营总裁弗里德曼（Friedman）说道。

当天深夜，酿酒师队晋级，锁定了一场绝对能带来“混乱”的重赛。

道奇队和酿酒师队在九年内第四次在季后赛相遇。上赛季，道奇队在国联冠军赛中横扫了密尔沃基队。

通常在对阵像道奇队这样的大市场球队之前，酿酒师队经理帕特·墨菲（Pat Murphy）会利用“下位者”的叙事，声称他怀疑对手叫不出他多少球员的名字。但由于成为了常年的季后赛竞争者，并在过去两个赛季中创下了大联盟最佳战绩，酿酒师队在几年前提拔墨菲时可能拥有的那种匿名性已经消失了。

即便在交易掉顶尖投手弗雷迪·佩拉尔塔（Freddy Peralta）之后，密尔沃基队也比上赛季成为了一支更完整的球队。

失去天才球员并没有阻止酿酒师队连续四次夺得国联中区冠军。他们不断地与顶尖球员告别——包括赛扬奖得主科宾·伯恩斯（Corbin Burnes）、终结者德文·威廉姆斯（Devin Williams）和游击手威利·阿达梅斯（Willy Adames）——然后进一步提高他们的胜场数。

许多球员保持不变，不过酿酒师队在交易截止日与圣路易斯队的交易中加入了前道奇队投手达斯汀·梅（Dustin May）和救援投手乔乔·罗梅罗（JoJo Romero），此前他们在争夺塔里克·斯库巴尔（Tarik Skubal）的竞争中落败。几名球员也取得了重要的进步。

最大的影响因素是雅各布·米西奥罗夫斯基，他本赛季在大联盟中拥有最低的防御率（1.80），是国联赛扬奖的热门人选。去年作为一名新秀，这位快球右投手在季后赛中被 relegated 到牛棚，直到国联冠军赛。今年，他担任了分區系列赛第 1 场的先发，并将担任国联冠军赛第 1 场的先发。经理戴夫·罗伯茨（Dave Roberts）周五表示，道奇队将在国联冠军赛第 1 场由斯库巴尔先发，第 2 场由山本由伸（Yoshinobu Yamamoto）先发。

酿酒师队长期以来一直以打出稳健的棒球著称，从投球、防守到跑垒。但人们对他们的诟病在于进攻阵容缺乏爆发力。

但这并不重要。一垒手杰克·鲍尔斯（Jake Bauers）迎来了职业生涯最佳赛季，在全队本垒打数（26）、上垒率（.389）和上垒加长打率（.873）方面均领先。在上次国联冠军赛中受腿筋伤势困扰的杰克逊·丘里奥（Jackson Chourio）击出了职业生涯最高的 25 支本垒打，并在长打率（.487）方面领跑全队。虽然酿酒师队可能无法在长打上胜过道奇队——本赛季他们的本垒打数少了 50 支——但他们拥有一套令人头疼的阵容，多盗了 90 个垒包。酿酒师队的战绩（103-59）也优于道奇队（100-62），因此系列赛将于周日在密尔沃基开始。迹象表明，这次系列赛将比去年更具竞争性。根据 Baseball Prospectus 的 PECOTA 排名，酿酒师队进入季后赛时的世界大赛夺冠概率（18.5%）甚至高于道奇队（16.7%）。

道奇队 certainly 不会轻视这场对决。他们确保没有低估排名第 3 的勇士队。

“外界有时会犯的错误就是低估某些球队，”季后赛老将基克·赫尔南德斯（Kiké Hernández）在道奇队庆祝国联分區系列赛（NLDS）胜利时说道。“我们知道前方有艰巨的任务。[勇士队]是一支打得非常出色的球队，拥有很强的势头，而且投球状态非常好。他们拥有非常优秀的牛棚，各种类型的投手，而对我们来说幸运的是，他们的先发投手有点不足，所以他们不得不过度消耗牛棚，而这一点最终对我们产生了有利影响。”

道奇队在系列赛回到洛杉矶进行（如果必要的话）的第 5 场之前就结束了比赛。因此，他们得以提前几天将注意力转向酿酒师队。

“我们球队的优势在于轮换，”弗里德曼说道。“因此，即使我们无法对其进行重置，我们仍然认为这将是我们的优势。但能够按照我们想要的方式进行排兵布阵，无疑是有利的。能够休息几天并为周日的比赛养精蓄锐，也非常有帮助。”

随后，混乱开始了。

势头强劲的酿酒人队寻求队史首冠

GENE J. PUSKAR 美联社 布莱斯·图朗（BRICE TURANG）在常规赛中打入 102 分之一。这位来自科罗纳的球员在安打数和打点数方面也领跑密尔沃基队。

[酿酒人队，见 B12]

上赛季是棒球界胜场数最多的球队，但未能突破道奇队的阻碍，而道奇队在季后赛系列赛中从未输给过酿酒人队。

在周日与道奇队进行国联冠军赛（NLCS）第一场比赛之前，关于酿酒人队的九件事需要了解。

温馨的穹顶主场

棒球界没有哪支球队的主场表现比酿酒人队更好，他们在美国家庭球场（American Family Field）的可伸缩屋顶下赢得了 55 场比赛。在这里，主场优势不仅仅在于最后击球：在分区系列赛的第一场比赛中，教士队失去了一个领先的全垒打，因为泰·弗朗斯（Ty France）在第九局的飞球击中了屋顶缆绳，掉进了杰克逊·丘里奥（Jackson Chourio）的手套中，成为了第二名出局球员。

这对道奇队来说是个坏消息，因为该系列赛的前两场在密尔沃基进行。自 8 月 30 日以来（包括季后赛），酿酒人队在主场仅输过一次。在常规赛期间，密尔沃基的投手在主场拥有大联盟最佳的球队防御率（3.17）和最低的对手打击率（.213），而其击球手在主场拥有最高打击率（.270）并得分最多（447 分）。

酿酒人队在密尔沃基的打击率高出 23 个百分点，他们在此打入了近三分之二的全垒打，并多得 62 分。

熟悉的对手

道奇队和酿酒人队在季后赛中第四次相遇——全部发生在 2018 年之后。道奇队横扫了去年秋天的国联冠军赛以及 2020 年的外卡系列赛。

2018 年的国联冠军赛竞争更为激烈，道奇队凭借科迪·贝林格（Cody Bellinger）和亚西尔·普伊格（Yasiel Puig）的全垒打在第七场比赛中反超获胜，挺进世界大赛，但随后被波士顿红袜队击败。

速度之王

赛扬奖热门雅各布·米西奥罗夫斯基（Jacob Misiorowski）在大联盟中防御率（1.80）和三振数（174 $^{2 / 3}$ 局中 252 次）领先，拥有最低的 WHIP（0.80），并在国联中以 16 胜排名第二。他还是历史上唯一一名职业生涯投球速度达到 100 英里 / 小时或以上的次数超过 1,000 次的投手——而且他是在一个赛季内完成的，在 2026 年达到 100 英里 / 小时或以上的次数达 1,000 次，在 6 月对阵小熊队的一次先发中最高时速达到 105.5 英里。

此外，他在主场（包括季后赛）的战绩为 13 胜 1 负，在其短暂的职业生涯中对阵道奇队的战绩为 2 胜 1 负。在常规赛中，只有两名面对过米西奥罗夫斯基两次以上的道奇先发投手（大谷翔平 .286 和特奥斯卡·埃尔南德斯 .250）对阵这位右投的打击率高于 .167，尽管道奇队在去年秋天国联冠军赛的第三场比赛中击败了他。

出色的布莱斯

如果说米西奥罗夫斯基是密尔沃基投手阵容中的王牌，那么进攻则由前科罗纳圣地亚哥高中之星布莱斯·图朗主导。他是大联盟中仅有的三名在常规赛中至少获得 102 分并贡献 100 次打点的球员之一。他还领跑酿酒人队的安打数（156 次）、二垒安打数（37 次）和打点数（100 次），并打出了职业生涯最佳的 .268 / .366 / .450 slash line。他的全垒打数也首次突破 20 支。

作为 2018 年选秀的第一轮秀，图朗也是一名出色的野手，他在 2024 年赢得了金手套奖，并在本赛季领跑国联的防御替代值（WAR），在二垒仅出现 6 次失误的同时，完成了联盟最高的 91 次双杀。图朗的父母都是明星运动员，他的父亲布莱恩（Brian）曾在西雅图水手队效力两个赛季，而他的母亲凯莉（Carrie）是一名垒球外野手兼投手，曾两次代表长滩州立大学参加女子大学世界系列赛。

进攻火力持续输出

进攻端并非只有左打的图朗在发力。另外两名酿酒人队球员（外野手丘里奥和一垒手杰克·鲍尔斯）的得分均超过 90 分，而鲍尔斯和捕手威廉·孔特雷拉斯的打点数则突破了 85 次。

耐心的酿酒人队让对方投手倍感压力，因为在每轮打席的投球数上，密尔沃基队在全联盟排名第一；同时，该队的保送数在大联盟中排名第二，场均 4.1 次。酿酒人队在高压局面下的表现同样出色，在得点圈有人的情况下，其打击率 / .上垒率 / .长打率达到了 .276 / .363 / .435，位居大联盟之首。

强大的投手群

米西奥罗夫斯基是今年夏天唯一入选国联全明星队的酿酒人队投手，但他绝非队内唯一的明星投手。先发投手凯尔·哈里森和洛根·亨德森均赢得了 11 场比赛，其中亨德森在 18 次先发中创下了 2.47 的防御率。

密尔沃基队的整体防御率为 3.51，在国家联盟中排名第一——比道奇队低 0.04——其 1,544 次三振数排名第二。只有道奇队将对手的打击率控制在比酿酒人队的 .218 更低的水平。

在牛棚方面，终结者特雷弗·梅吉尔在 33 次机会中完成了 30 场救援；亚伦·阿什比在 74 次救援出场中取得 13 胜 3 负，防御率为 3.00；查德·帕特里克在 51 场救援比赛中取得 7 胜 3 负，防御率为 3.59。事实上，墨菲从牛棚中获得的胜场数（48 场）比棒球界任何一位经理都要多。密尔沃基队在 76 次机会中完成了 55 场救援，领跑国联。

哦，队长！我的队长！

现年 34 岁的克里斯蒂安·耶利奇来自千橡市，他是大联盟最年轻阵容之一中年龄最大的球员。他也是目前最顶尖的球员之一，但却从未参加过世界大赛。

耶利奇曾三次入选全明星队，两次获得打击王，曾获 MVP 且赢得过金手套奖。他唯一尚未实现的是赢得冠军戒指。在他的履历中，甚至没有一次世界大赛的参赛记录。

毫无疑问，年龄正在影响着耶利奇，他的合同还剩两年。本赛季他的 .235 打击率是他完整赛季中的最低值，而出场的 118 场比赛也是他 14 年职业生涯中最少的场次之一。但他的领导力依然不可或缺，这就是为什么他在常规赛最后一周被任命为球队历史上首位队长。目前只有另外两名球员获得过此项荣誉。

“有时，领导力是通过潜移默化习得的，而非教出来的，”墨菲说道，“他的行为方式，他的处事态度，引导了那些年轻人。”

这并不是说他在场上没有做出巨大贡献。在分區系列赛第二场第九局，他的一次保送和一次盗垒点燃了密尔沃基队的绝杀胜利。

丰富的人生阅历

墨菲是一个棒球终身从业者，在 56 岁第一次穿上大联盟制服之前，他所经历的磨练比一名工会水管工还要多。墨菲曾在两个组织的小联盟低级别联赛以及两支独立球队中投球，随后退役成为玛丽维尔、克莱蒙特-马德、圣母大学和亚利桑那州立大学的大学教练。他还曾率领荷兰国家队获得欧洲冠军，并获得了 1988 年首尔奥运会的参赛资格。

他的重大转机出现在 2015 年，当时圣迭戈教徒队将他从埃尔帕索的三 A 队提升，接替巴德·布莱克担任临时经理。一年后，克雷格·康塞尔聘请他担任酿酒人队的板凳教练。当康塞尔在 2024 赛季前接任 Cubs 经理一职时，现年 67 岁的墨菲被任命为接任者。

在经历了 293 场常规赛胜利和三次季后赛之旅后，这位棒球终身从业者距离世界大赛仅差四场胜利，那将是他一生中最重要的一次旅程。

“我认为这只是一种对目标的不懈追求，”墨菲在接受 Yahoo Sports 采访谈到他的漫长旅程时表示，“我想成为某个重要的人。我想变得特别。”

仅有一顶王冠的小镇

在所有与酿酒人队（Brewers）一样资深的大联盟球队中，教徒队（Padres）是唯一一支尚未赢得过世界大赛冠军的球队。两支球队均成立于1969年，不过酿酒人队在首个赛季时是以“飞行员队”（Pilots）之名在西雅图比赛，随后被一名名为巴德·塞利格（Bud Selig）的密尔沃基汽车经销商在破产法院收购，他将球队迁至威斯康星州并将其更名为酿酒人队。

塞利格后来担任了23年的棒球专员，但他未能帮到他的酿酒人队。酿酒人队仅在1982年进入过一次世界大赛，并在七场比赛后输给了圣路易斯红雀队。密尔沃基在之后的四分之一个世纪里都没有再次进入季后赛，期间他们更换了两次分区和一次联盟，于1998年从美国联盟跳槽至国家联盟。

密尔沃基曾庆祝过世界大赛冠军，只不过那并非酿酒人队赢得的。勇士队（Braves）于1953年从波士顿迁至该市，随后赢得了两次国家联盟冠军，并在1957年的世界大赛中，凭借一名名为汉克·亚伦（Hank Aaron）的23岁外野手击出的三支本垒打，击败了洋基队。

九年后，勇士队迁往亚特兰大，并带走了他们的奖杯，使密尔沃基成为了一个知识问答题的答案：请说出目前唯一一个曾赢得过世界大赛，但其现有的特许经营球队尚未夺冠的大联盟城市。

周四结果

迈克·迪特卡（MIKE DITKA），1939-2026

名宿近端锋曾率领熊队

[ 迪特卡，见 B12]

“傲慢且固执” 傲慢且固执 在长达 12 年的名人堂球员生涯中，迈克·迪特卡（Mike Ditka）在 1966 年对阵格林贝的比赛中完成了一次接球，他彻底改变了近端锋这一位置。 美联社

[2014, 1985] 在经历了 12 年的球员生涯后，他于 1988 年入选职业橄榄球名人堂。其职业生涯包括五次入选职业碗（Pro Bowls）、427 次接球、43 次达阵以及 5,812 码的接球码数。

迪特卡作为教练赢得了两次超级碗冠军，作为球员赢得过一次，他革新了近端锋的位置，将其从一个主要负责掩护的角色转变为能够对接球产生威胁的角色。

迪特卡以其火爆的个性而闻名，他还将自己的名气从赛场延伸到了荧幕，与威尔·法瑞尔（Will Ferrell）共同主演了电影《踢球与尖叫》（Kicking & Screaming），在片中他饰演他自己。不过，他不再是执教夺冠的熊队，而是帮助执教一支青少年足球队——但他的竞争精神依然如故。他还多次在电视节目中亮相，包括《干杯》（Cheers）、《洛杉矶法律》（L.A. Law）和《随行》（Entourage）。

迪特卡 1939 年 10 月 18 日出生于宾夕法尼亚州卡内基。1961 年，他成为芝加哥熊队的首轮选秀球员。当时的球队由熊队创始人、总裁兼主教练乔治·哈拉斯（George Halas）领导，后者在 1982 年给予了迪特卡他的首个 NFL 主教练职位。

迪特卡毕业于匹兹堡大学，在那里他同时打篮球和棒球，并在橄榄球项目中获得了全美荣誉。他迅速成为熊队阵容中的主力，连续首发 84 场比赛。他凭借 56 次接球、1,076 码接球码数和 12 次达阵被评为年度最佳新秀，成为首位在新秀赛季达到 1,000 码接球码数的近端锋。

他还获得了 1961 年至 1964 年的全 NFL 荣誉，并在前六个赛季中五次入选 NFL 职业碗。迪特卡于 1986 年入选大学橄榄球名人堂。

这位近端锋最终成为了教练，最著名的是率领 1985 年的芝加哥熊队。这支球队是 NFL 历史上最强的球队之一，战绩为 15 胜 1 负，总得分 456 分，仅失 198 分。那年的熊队也极具个性，大胆地录制了一段名为《超级碗洗牌》（The Super Bowl Shuffle）的说唱风格视频，并在常规赛期间发布。

但这不仅仅是账面上的强势赛季——在 1980、1981 和 1982 年经历负胜率之后，迪特卡被认为带领熊队重回巅峰并恢复了光彩。他将球队重新打造成为球迷热爱、对手畏惧的队伍。

“我认为这就是哈拉斯先生一直以来想要的样子，”迪特卡 1985 年告诉《时报》，“他想要一支具有某种个性的球队，一支由，你知道，粗犷、强悍的家伙组成的球队，一支不向任何人低头且能反击的球队。”

在纽奥良举行的第 XX 届超级碗中，迪特卡和球队以 46-10 击败新英格兰爱国者队，为芝加哥带来了胜利。

凭借 85 年的球队获得 NFL 年度最佳教练，迪特卡是仅有的两名在球员、助理教练和主教练三个身份上都赢得过超级碗的人之一。

“我相信迈克·迪特卡在很多方面都代表了我们，”当时的线卫兼队长迈克·辛格莱特里（Mike Singletary）告诉《时报》，“我们知道他执教芝加哥熊队并不是因为他需要一份工作。熊队对迈克·迪特卡来说意义重大。这支球队是他的一部分。”

不过，他在芝加哥的时光并非全部是光鲜亮丽。迪特卡在以教练身份回归熊队时并未立即受到欢迎，他的脾气成为了他与老板之间紧张关系的来源。他在 1985 年曾有一次酒驾（DUI）定罪，并在 1988 年心脏病发作。

在他的任期内，他面临着关于其鲁莽性格和在场边爆发情绪的投诉，尤其是与几名球员以及防守协调员巴迪·瑞安（Buddy Ryan）的关系动荡，后者在赢得超级碗赛季后离开，成为费城老鹰队的主教练。但迪特卡似乎并不介意接受这种名声。

“曾有一项针对 200 名 NFL 球员的[杂志]调查，他们表示最不想效力的教练首先是[汤姆]·兰德里，并列第二的是唐·舒拉和我。我感到受宠若惊。这真是极大的赞美，”迈克·迪特卡在 1986 年的自传中写道。

迪特卡深陷争议之中，他曾公开表示华盛顿队不应更改其“红皮队”（Redskins）的队名，且因 2016 年批评科林·卡佩尼克及社会正义抗议活动的言论而面临抵制，随后他对此表示道歉。

尽管如此，他的名字仍铭刻在 NFL 的历史上。

“迪特卡既骄傲又固执，”前《时报》体育专栏作家迈克·道尼写道。“他既平庸又傲慢……他随心所欲。但他恢复了芝加哥熊队的声誉，让他们成为了赢家，并让他们变得值得观看。”

在球员生涯期间，他在 1963 年 11 月 23 日对阵钢队的一场比赛中完成了一次标志性的 63 码接球奔跑，这次进攻在 NFL 的“100 个最伟大回合”中排名第 69 位。这次精彩表现帮助熊队在第四节 17-14 落后的情况下最终以 17-17 打平；该队随后赢得了 NFL 冠军。

1967 年，他被交易至费城老鹰队，随后在 1969 年被交易至达拉斯牛仔队。在牛仔队期间，迪特卡两次进入超级碗，1971 年遭遇失利，并在次年最终获胜，他在那场 24-3 击败迈阿密海豚队的比赛中攻入了最后的达阵。

1972 年退役后，迪特卡以助理教练身份加入牛仔队。1977 年，他再次随队捧起超级碗奖杯，并一直留任直到加入芝加哥熊队。

这位名人堂成员与芝加哥的纽带再次被切断，这次是因为在经历了一个 5-11 的赛季后，他在 1993 年被解雇。但在随后的岁月里，他拒绝脱下那身海军蓝与橙色的球衣，因为他在 11 个赛季中取得了 106-62 的战绩，并带领熊队 7 次进入季后赛。

“是的，我被熊队解雇了，但这就是生活，”迪特卡 2013 年在访问芝加哥训练场时说道。“我从未停止过支持熊队。我有权像任何人一样成为熊队的球迷。我曾在冠军球队中打球，也曾执教冠军球队。”

熊队在 2013 年退役了迪特卡的 89 号球衣。

他在 NFL 的参与范围扩展到了赛场之外，开始尝试电视评论，甚至在 1994 年和 1996 年获得了体育艾美奖“杰出体育人物”的提名。

迪特卡在 1997 年至 1999 年期间在 NFL 担任过最后一次主教练，执教新奥尔良圣徒队。在经历了两个 6-10 的赛季后，圣徒队交易掉了所有选秀权——外加 2000 年的一个首轮选择权——以提升顺位选择跑卫里基·威廉姆斯。但该队在 1999 年的战绩为 3-13，迪特卡在赛季结束后被解雇。

在新奥尔良经历了 15-33 的执教记录后，他的教练生涯最终战绩为 121-95。

“我曾登上过山顶并见识过那里，”迪特卡 2004 年告诉《时报》。“我也曾跌到山底并见识过那里。我不想再处于两者之间任何地方了。”

然而，职业橄榄球界并未就此与他告别，他随后在《NFL 今日》、《周一之夜橄榄球》和《体育中心》等节目中担任广播和电视播报员。他对橄榄球的热情从未消减，这在他 2021 年创办的 X Football（女子对抗橄榄球竞赛联盟）中可见一斑。

他对芝加哥的影响不仅限于体育场大门；他是“迪特卡餐厅集团”的合伙人，该集团 1997 年在芝加哥市中心开设了第一家牛排馆，以其招牌菜“Da Pork Chop”而闻名。虽然原店于 2020 年关闭，但目前在伊利诺伊州奥克布鲁克和匹兹堡仍有分店。

在佛罗里达州短暂居住后，迪特卡和他的妻子戴安娜在 2024 年底重新在芝加哥扎根。

“我出生在宾夕法尼亚州，在匹兹堡长大，但芝加哥是我的家……也是我的生命，”迪特卡告诉《芝加哥太阳时报》。

工作人员及电讯报道

当坦帕湾队的跑卫巴基·欧文（Bucky Irving）用一次跑球创下职业生涯新高并彻底击败达拉斯牛仔队时，他已经完成了自 2024 年新秀年以来的首场 100 码比赛。

来自劳恩代尔高中（Lawndale High）的非选秀新秀贾隆·丹尼尔斯顶替球队核心四分卫贝克·梅菲尔德（Baker Mayfield）出战，在仅第二次首发中，他不仅在场边欣赏风景，还通过个人努力为海盗队赢得了本赛季的首场胜利。

欧文跑球 165 码，其中包括一次 72 码的跑球，为坦帕湾队锁定胜局的达阵创造了机会，且他本人两次得分。海盗队在周四晚上以 24-16 击败了主场作战的牛仔队。

丹尼尔斯在上半场给欧文传了一次达阵球，在指挥进攻端零失误且达拉斯队出现多次失误的情况下，他 25 传 19 中，传球 189 码，海盗队总共跑球 241 码。

丹尼尔斯目前在顶替梅菲尔德，后者因投球手拇指脱臼，预计将至少缺席一场比赛。

“六个月前，如果你告诉我我的首场胜利会是在周四晚上的 [亚马逊] Prime 足球赛中，我不知道该怎么回答你，”丹尼尔斯说道。

“就像我一直说的，经历所有的起伏、糟糕与美好，经历每一种情绪，因为到头来，这会让你变得更强。”

巴克利、史密斯缺席伦敦比赛

由于腿筋受伤，费城老鹰队的跑卫萨昆·巴克利（Saquon Barkley）和接球手德冯塔·史密斯（DeVonta Smith）被判定无法参加周日在伦敦对阵杰克逊维尔美洲豹队的比赛。

巴克利在上周 24-20 输给公羊队的比赛早期伤到了右腿筋，且整个星期都没有参加训练。史密斯本周同样没有参加训练，将连续缺席第二场比赛。

电击队将斯莱特列入伤病预备名单

电击队将左截锋拉肖恩·斯莱特（Rashawn Slater）列入伤病预备名单。斯莱特于周四接受了手术，以治疗他在周日输给西雅图海鹰队的比赛中遭受的高位踝关节扭伤。斯莱特将至少缺席接下来的四场比赛。他有资格在第10周回归，届时电击队将于11月16日对阵巴尔的摩乌鸦队。斯莱特因左膝髌腱断裂缺席了整个2025赛季。此外，安全卫德文·詹姆斯二世（Derwin James Jr.，腿筋）、接球手昆廷·约翰斯顿（Quentin Johnston，胸部）和布伦嫩·汤普森（Brenen Thompson，股四头肌）以及后卫卡约德·阿沃西卡（Kayode Awosika，腓骨）被宣布无法参加周日的比赛。

又一轮“酿造”

MLB最强的密尔沃基在主场势不可挡

作者：Kevin Baxter

在帕特·墨菲（Pat Murphy）担任经理的三年里，密尔沃基队每赛季平均胜场数为97场，位居棒球界之首，其中今年夏天创下了队史纪录的103场胜利。然而，酿酒人队尚未赢得过国家联盟冠军，而他们可以通过在去年秋天国联冠军赛的重赛中击败道奇队来结束这一干旱。

当然，道奇队赢得了那次系列赛。面对一支随着赛季推进而变得更强的球队，这种自信可能会变得至关重要。密尔沃基队不仅拥有大联盟中最好的整体战绩（103胜59负）和并列最好的主场战绩（55胜26负），而且在下半赛季（44胜22负）以及九月份（18胜6负）的战绩也同样名列前茅。

道奇队获得重赛机会，但再次横扫难度极大

周三晚上，道奇队击败亚特兰大勇士队晋级国家联盟冠军赛后，在更衣室里，一群记者围在安德鲁·弗里德曼（Andrew Friedman）身边，但这并没有给庆祝活动泼冷水。

坦纳·斯科特（Tanner Scott）将倒扣的啤酒瓶塞进弗里德曼的衬衫里。亚历克斯·弗里兰（Alex Freeland）将啤酒灌进他的嘴里，洒了他一脸。埃里克·劳尔（Eric Lauer）组织了一次偷袭，他先宣布要去洗澡，然后突然从侧门现身。

弗里德曼始终在微笑。当被问及在国联冠军赛中更愿意面对密尔沃基酿酒人队还是圣地亚哥教士队时，他的眼神中似乎闪烁着更强烈的光芒。[见道奇队，B10]

刚烈且激情的教练，曾率领“85年熊队”

作者：June Hsu

胡须。飞行员太阳镜。熊队针织背心。虽然迈克·迪特卡（Mike Ditka）的造型极具标志性，但其作为球员和教练的经历才真正让他的名字在NFL历史上永垂不朽。

迪特卡，首位入选职业橄榄球名人堂的近端锋，以及传奇的1985年芝加哥熊队教练，已经去世。他享年86岁。其家人在周五的一份声明中宣布了他的死讯。

“我们怀着深切的悲痛宣布，我们深爱的丈夫、父亲、祖父和朋友迈克·迪特卡离开了我们，”家人表示。“虽然世人将迈克视为名人堂球员、传奇教练以及芝加哥熊队第20届超级碗冠军队的领袖，但我们知道他是我们家庭的核心。迈克将被无限思念，永远被铭记。”

“迈克·迪特卡在很多年里都是橄榄球的缩影，”NFL专员罗杰·古德尔（Roger Goodell）在声明中说。“他将激情、真实感和鲜明的个性带入到他所做的一切之中。”

凭借“铁迈克”（Iron Mike）、“教练”（Da Coach）和“锤子”（The Hammer）等绰号，迪特卡[见迪特卡，B11]

棕熊队被敦促不要让情绪或鸭队失控

当排名第 21 的加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）周六下午在奥岑体育场（Autzen Stadium）对阵排名第 13 的俄勒冈大学时，防守协调员科林·希奇勒（Colin Hitschler）希望棕熊队能在“带着激情比赛”与“情绪化比赛”之间找到平衡。

“重大场合往往能激发球员们额外的潜能，但当你做得稍微多了一点，就容易做得过头，”希奇勒说。“橄榄球是一项艰苦的运动，但你不能让它变得比现在更难。有时当你过于紧绷，就容易犯大错。回顾普渡大学的那场比赛，我们确实有点太紧绷了，情绪有些激动。……必须带着激情比赛，但不能情绪化地比赛。我们在成长和理解这一点方面处于良好状态。但这是一个全新的氛围，一个 [见 ]

设计真正经久耐用的户外空间

户外生活不再是一种奢侈的配套设施，而是住宅核心面积的一部分。根据美国国家厨房和浴室协会（National Kitchen and Bath Association）的数据，超过 $75\%$ 的千禧一代现在认为户外厨房是必不可少的，而那些能获得最高溢价的房屋，正是那些将室内与室外无缝融合的住宅。买家期望这些空间能够全年运作，而不仅仅是在天气宜人的那三个月里。

为现实而设计时会有什么改变

在观察过去十年户外项目的老化情况后，我学到了这一点：五年后看起来最好的空间，并不一定是那些使用顶级材料建造的空间。而是那些有人深思熟虑过天气在特定场地中实际如何流动空间。

像水一样思考

适当的排水对于管理您特定场地中水的流向至关重要，然后设计能够引导水流而非将其困住的过渡地带和细节。我见过美丽的 IPE 木甲板被毁掉，不是因为材料本身，而是因为边缘细节形成了完美的微小积水区。

朝向并非可选

凤凰城一个朝西的户外厨房，在材料思考上与西雅图一个朝北的有顶门廊完全不同。下午阳光强烈的区域，使用会膨胀的材料会承受严重的 thermal stress（热应力），饰面失效更快，而深色着色剂则可能导致翘曲。

保护并非装饰

屋檐、凉亭和覆盖区域不仅仅是为了遮荫和美观——它们在延长材料寿命方面发挥着实际作用。即使只有部分覆盖的甲板，其表现也将远超完全暴露在外的相同甲板。

建筑师们忽略的材料革命

我们正看到新一代的工程材料，它们真正实现了低维护美学的承诺。我指的是由稻壳等农业废弃物制成的生物基产品，这些原本会被焚烧或填埋的材料，被转化为性能优于传统建筑材料的产品。

目标不仅是韧性，更是与元素的和谐。当户外空间被设计成与环境同步运作时，它们会演变成房屋的功能性延伸，而非美学上的负担。

New U.S. sanctions on global criminal court

Action is part of effort to dismantle tribunal over its investigations, especially of Israel.

BY MATTHEW LEE AND MOLLY QUELL

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration on Friday imposed sweeping new sanctions on the International Criminal Court as part of its campaign to dismantle the tribunal over investigations into the United States and its allies, notably Israel.

The move drew rebukes from around the world, including from U.S. allies.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the sanctions Friday, after the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to South African jurist Navi Pillay, who has been a judge at the ICC and other international courts and whose selection for the prize was condemned by Israel for her investigative findings on Gaza. President Trump has coveted that prize for himself.

U.S. officials maintained that the timing was coincidental and that the sanctions had been in the works for months.

"We will ban transactions with this rogue court, cutting off their resources and crippling its ability to operate against us," Rubio said in a video address posted to social media. "The United States and the American people are not subject to the jurisdiction of this fake ICC."

The sanctions cut the court off from U.S.-based financial services, technology companies and even using U.S. dollars. They set a six-month timeline for U.S. companies and individuals that have business with the court to wind that business down.

The Hague-based ICC, the world's first permanent war crimes tribunal, denounced the step as an attack on the rule of law and the foundations of international order, themes that Rubio had appeared to embrace only two days ago in a speech in front of the Acropolis in Athens.

"It is an attempt to obstruct the course of justice and to prevent the court from doing what it was created to do," the court said in [See ICC, A9]

Rising tides, flooding herald Rachel's arrival

BY HANNAH FRY AND RONG-GONG LIN II

Coastal communities from Newport Beach to Long Beach were hit by significant flooding from large waves on Friday as Southern California braces for the arrival of Tropical Storm Rachel, which is expected to make landfall near the California-Mexico border early Sunday.

Rachel's arrival brings the potential for strong winds, rain and more damaging coastal flooding. If the current storm trajectory continues, Rachel's effects will be felt mostly in San Diego County. However, Orange and Los Angeles counties are still forecast to see widespread rain and isolated coastal flooding as a result of the system, according to the National Weather Service.

“Even though the center of Tropical Storm Rachel will be well south of Los Angeles County, the significant swell in the ocean coming initially from the south, and then also phasing with a swell from the west, will bring coastal flooding concerns from any time from now through Tuesday, peaking on Sunday," said National Weather Service Meteorologist-in-Charge Ariel Cohen.

The National Weather Service office in San Diego on Friday issued a rare tropical storm watch for most of San Diego County, including areas like San Diego, Chula Vista, Carlsbad and Oceanside, meaning that tropical storm-force winds are possible somewhere in the area over the next 48 hours.

Companies are buying up \$4-billion abuse settlement

Victims beset by delays are taking a loss, trading L.A. County's future payouts for cash up front

The man was sure only his lawyers and family knew about his lawsuit against Los Angeles County over sexual abuse he says he endured inside a juvenile hall as a teenager.

By Rebecca Ellis

The case, filed under a pseudonym, was one of thousands resolved by county officials last year in a historic \$4-billion sex abuse settlement. He asked to remain anonymous to discuss the abuse, which he said was among his most closely held secrets.

So he was bewildered this fall to receive a phone call from a company in Florida that seemed to know all about it.

The unwanted cold caller offered a deal: In exchange for a lump sum of cash up front, the company would collect his future payouts, which are set to come in installments over the next five years.

"I'm really curious, like, how you got my number?" said the man, according to a recording of the call reviewed by The Times. "This is a very confidential matter. There is no way that you should know my name, let alone my phone number."

He says he never got an answer. Instead, the salesperson offered him a \$200 referral fee if he could find others to sell their payouts, too.

Offers like these, victims suing L.A. County say, have become inescapable. Over Facebook messages and cold calls, [See Parents, A14]

Filling in L.A.'s treeless gaps with 'built shade'

City puts pop-up canopies, tents to the test in blistering heat wave

BY BLANCA BEGERT

GENARO MOLINA Los Angeles Times
A MAN heads toward shade at the Hoover Recreation Center, where a canopy drapes the playground.

Temperatures are finally cooling off this weekend, after a long heat wave that followed the hottest summer on record in downtown Los Angeles. Last Saturday, when it was 103 degrees at Exposition Park, a string of red and yellow cloth sails were strung between streetlights to offer a bit of shade.

The sails, bridging the road between the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and the Coliseum, provided relief for some of the thousands of people headed to USC's homecoming football game.

"It really made a difference to be under it," said Edith de Guzman, co-director of the year-old collaboration called ShadeLA. "It felt miserable to be out walking, but once we were under the shade sails, we hung out for a couple of hours, and it was doable," she said. Led by UCLA and USC, ShadeLA partners with the city, county and other groups to shield Los Angeles from the blazing sun.

LAPD lawsuits since 2019 cost \$480 million

Officer misconduct, traffic accidents and workplace injustices fuel ‘nuclear verdicts.’

BY LIBOR JANY AND SEAN GREENE

The LAPD's legal bills keep piling up.

The city of Los Angeles has shelled out nearly \$480 million over the last seven and a half years to end legal disputes involving the Police Department, including claims of excessive force, litigation over traffic accidents and cases filed by employees who allegedly faced retaliation after reporting misconduct.

The soaring legal costs have come under greater scrutiny in recent years as Los Angeles' financial problems have gotten worse. The city faced a \$1-billion budget shortfall in 2025 but, after various cost-cutting measures, managed to set aside funding for the LAPD to hire more than 500 new officers in the coming year.

The LAPD's annual lawsuit costs more than doubled from 2019 to 2025. The payouts peaked in 2024, when the city spent \$178.6 million to resolve more than 300 police-related lawsuits and civil claims, before dropping to just over \$100 million in 2025, according to a Times analysis of city attorney's data.

The Times reviewed hundreds of pages of court documents and analyzed data from the city attorney's office released through a public records request showing nearly 2,000 payouts dating to January 2019.

Through the first six months of this year, the city has paid out \$20.3 million in legal settlements and court judgments involving LAPD officers. Several recent big-dollar verdicts aren't included in that tally because they hadn't yet been approved by the City Council.

The surging cost of LAPD payouts is depriving the cash-strapped city of money for pressing needs such as fixing roads and sidewalks, City Controller Kenneth Mejia said.

Public execution plan draws disgust

Bipartisan outrage over Pentagon intent to livestream killing of Ft. Hood shooter.

BY KEVIN RECTOR AND ANA CEBALLOS

In confirming his plans to livestream Ft. Hood mass shooter Nidal Malik Hasan's military execution by firing squad on Dec. 3, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called it a "no brainer" punishment for a "radical Islamist terror attack" on U.S. service members.

"We'll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it's public, because people need to understand [that] there are serious consequences for these types of things," Hegseth said in an interview with Real America's Voice network.

Others across the country and around the world — Democrats and Republicans, human rights experts, legal scholars and military and religious leaders — condemned it as a barbaric throwback to an era when executions were cast as entertainment, and as the world's leading democracy adopting a form of punishment carried out in modern times only by authoritarian regimes and terrorist organizations.

“Hasan should face the death penalty, but making his execution public and streaming it? Beyond disgusting,” Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) wrote on X. “Public executions are what oppressive dictatorships like Iran and Afghanistan do. It should not be happening in America.”

“I absolutely support the sentence of death, but livestreaming executions is what jihadists do. America is better than that,” Rep. Austin Scott (R-Ga.) wrote.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said that “the livestreaming of an execution is tantamount to a public execution and would breach the absolute prohibition of torture.” The head of [See Livestream, A7]

NAVI PILLAY speaks at the Nuremberg Forum after the Nobel announcement.
DANIEL KARMANN DPA

BY STEFANIE DAZIO, JAMEY KEATEN AND KOSTYA MANENKOV

OSLO — Navi Pillay, a South African-born jurist and former U.N. human rights chief whose career has spanned from defending the rights of an imprisoned Nelson Mandela to leading a panel that found that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for efforts that the award committee said promoted international law as it comes under attack.

Her win is sure to be seen as a high-profile rebuke of President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who have both rejected the findings of the U.N. commission she led on Gaza. The leaders also have been highly critical of the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court. Pillay has worked at both.

Hours after the award was announced in Norway, the Trump administration imposed sweeping new sanctions on the International Criminal Court as part of its campaign to dismantle the tribunal over investigations into the United States and its allies, including Israel.

On the 125th anniversary of the prize's inception, the Norwegian Nobel Committee sought "to remind the world that the rule of law, national and international, underpins the system we have set up to ensure peace and resolve conflicts nonviolently. Peace requires justice," committee Chairman Jørgen Watne Frydnes said.

Judges “guard the thin red line between order and chaos,” and the world needs jurists “of courage, vision and determination, qualities that Navi Pillay demonstrates in her work on the bench.”

In places such as Israel and apartheid-era South Africa, Pillay and peers took on some of the world's most painful and sensitive legal issues and most vulnerable populations.

Pillay, 85, received the news while attending a forum in Nuremberg, Germany, where the trials of Nazi war criminals helped lay the foundations of international law. She was in the same room where the trials were held when the prize was announced.

She said efforts to weaken international criminal justice “endanger the progress painstakingly made since Nuremberg, and they risk returning us to a world in which power, rather than law, determines whose suffering matters.”

Led inquiry naming genocide in Gaza

Pillay chaired the Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel, which was created by the U.N.-backed Human Rights Council. The commission concluded a year ago that Israel was responsible for genocide in Gaza with a specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza.

Gaza was among Pillay's first comments Friday after hearing she had won. "What's happening there is genocide," she said to applause.

The commission also found that the Israeli president, prime minister and former defense minister “have incited the commission of genocide.” Israel, which has refused to cooperate with the commission since it was established in 2021, has strenuously denied the accusations.

Pillay has repeatedly rebuffed critics who accused her of antisemitism or turning a blind eye to the Hamas attacks in Israel. Under her leadership, the commission also issued reports accusing Hamas of war crimes and violations of international humanitarian law during its Oct. 7, 2023, attack.

In an interview with the Associated Press last year, she recalled how she worked closely with some Jewish lawyers in the fight against apartheid in her native South Africa and was invited to Israel as the U.N. rights chief from 2008 to 2014.

Growing up under the harsh system of segregation influenced Pillay's interest in human rights and the law. Starting with Mandela's presidency, South Africa's government has openly compared the situation faced by nonwhite people during apartheid to the Palestinians' plight.

“We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians,” Mandela said soon after apartheid ended.

The Nobel announcement came at another critical time for Gaza, just two days after the anniversary of the Hamas-led 2023 attack that killed about 1,200 people and sparked the war. More than 74,000 Palestinians have been killed since, with their territory devastated. Saturday marks a year since a fragile ceasefire took effect, while Israeli

Netanyahu wrote on X that the Nobel committee “has lost its moral compass” by awarding its highest honor to “a bigot who built her career around inventing and propagating blood libels against the one and only Jewish state.”

The award was announced less than three weeks before Israel's election, in which Netanyahu is fighting to stay in power.

Renews focus on U.S. feud with ICC

Pillay's win and the new U.S. sanctions bring renewed attention to Trump's ongoing feud with the International Criminal Court, where Pillay was a judge from 2003 to 2008.

In a video address, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the administration would “ban transactions with this rogue court, cutting off their resources and crippling its ability to operate against us.”

The sanctions block any assets the ICC as an institution has in U.S. jurisdictions and set a six-month timeline for American companies and individuals to wind down any business with the court.

The Nobel committee did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment following Rubio's announcement.

Pillay currently serves as an ad hoc judge at the International Court of Justice, the highest court of the United Nations, in the ongoing genocide case against Myanmar.

When countries do not have a representative on the court's permanent, 15-judge panel, they can appoint an expert of their choice. Gambia, which launched the proceedings in 2019, selected Pillay when the country accused Myanmar of committing genocide against the Rohingya minority group.

During her time as a young lawyer in apartheid South Africa, part of Pillay's work involved establishing key rights for political prisoners being held on Robben Island, including Mandela, who later won the Nobel Peace Prize.

After apartheid ended, Mandela appointed Pillay to be the country's first non-white woman to serve as a High Court judge.

Opposition leader won last year

Last year, Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado won the Nobel Peace Prize for her struggle to achieve a democratic transition in the South American nation.

Machado gave Trump her Nobel medal shortly after the United States ousted then-President Nicolás Maduro. But it was largely a symbolic gesture: The Nobel Committee has said the honor itself cannot be transferred.

In Trump's second term, he has been outspoken about his desire for the Nobel but has expressed doubts that the committee would ever award him the prize.

“They have a reputation for maybe not giving it to people like me,” Trump told reporters Wednesday.

3 killed in attacks Houthis claimed on Saudi airport

BY SALLY ABOU ALJOUD AND CARA ANNA

BEIRUT — An airline pilot was among three Saudi citizens killed in attacks targeting Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport and a Saudi airlines plane, the kingdom's civil aviation authority said Friday. Several people "of different nationalities" were wounded.

Thursday's attacks were the deadliest in Saudi Arabia since the kingdom and allied forces in neighboring Yemen launched a major military offensive against Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels last weekend.

The attacks also marked a significant escalation on the latest front in the Iran war, which has kept oil prices and financial markets volatile.

U.N. special envoy Hans Grundberg told the U.N. Security Council that the situation in Yemen remained “highly fluid,” with civilians bearing the brunt of escalating violence in a country already facing dire humanitarian conditions and food insecurity.

Flights to Saudi Arabia canceled

By Friday afternoon, at least 124 flights to and from Riyadh had been canceled after hundreds more were canceled a day earlier, according to flight-tracking site FlightAware.

Air India, FlyDubai, Luft-hansa Group and Pakistan International Airlines were among the airlines that suspended flights to and from Riyadh and other Saudi airports for the next few days because of the situation in the Middle East.

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency has expanded its guidance on Saudi airspace, noting the Houthis' ability to strike targets deeper inside the kingdom, including Riyadh, and a "greater focus on aviation infrastructure." The latest guidance adds "recurrent missile and drone attacks, together with the activation of air-defense systems, create an increased risk of misidentification of civil aircraft, as well as risks associated with missile and drone overflights, interception activity and falling debris."

Yemen's Houthis claim the attack

The first attack on Thursday targeted airport facilities, while the second struck the aircraft, the Saudi statement said. It did not identify those responsible, though the Houthis claimed to have targeted the airport with a ballistic missile.

LUFTHANSA was among airlines suspending flights to and from Saudi airports.

Among the dead was Capt. Hamoud Ali Al-kalthami, the Saudi Group said in a statement. It appeared to be the first confirmed attack on the Saudi national carrier since the new offensive began. A separate Saudi Group statement said one of its aircraft was damaged while it was on the ground, with no passengers on board.

The aviation statement also said the injuries to Saudi citizens and people of other nationalities “ranged from minor to serious.” The Saudia Group statement later said operational activities at the airport had returned to normal.

Coalition bombards Yemen's capital

Residents in Yemen's capital of Sanaa heard heavy explosions overnight and into Friday as intense fighting between the Houthis and Saudi-led forces continued.

Anees al-Asbahi, spokesperson for the Houthi-run Health Ministry, said on X that two of the overnight strikes on Sanaa by the Saudi-led coalition injured six people, including a child.

Saudi authorities have not confirmed the strikes on Sanaa.

Mohamed al-Jabir, the Saudi ambassador to Yemen, in a posting on X on Friday claimed that the Bab el-Mandeb Strait had been “cleansed” from Houthi remnants. He didn’t provide further details.

Protesters gathered in several Houthi-held cities in Yemen on Friday to denounce Saudi Arabia and its backers.

Meanwhile, Saudi allies, including Kuwait and Pakistan, condemned the attack on the Riyadh airport. The Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry said the kingdom's security was “an inseparable part of the security” of Kuwait and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries.

Pakistan has said it's making its military capabilities available to Saudi Arabia to fight the Houthis under a new mutual defense pact with Saudi Arabia and Turkey. Foreign Ministry spokesman Sajjad Haider Khan told reporters that the country's troops stationed in Saudi Arabia would not enter Yemen to attack the Iran-backed Houthis but would defend the kingdom's territory.

Riyadh airport repeatedly targeted

The airport in the Saudi capital has come under repeated attack in recent days. This week, the Houthis warned global airlines about the potential consequences of operating in Saudi airspace, which they described as a theater for their military operations.

On Wednesday, Saudi officials said Houthi-claimed attacks on airports in Riyadh and Abha had killed three people.

Saudi Arabia faces mounting attacks from the Houthis, who declared a blockade of the kingdom earlier this year in response to one imposed on them.

The kingdom has sought support from allies, including the United States.

President Trump has shown reluctance to expand

U.S. military involvement in the Middle East and, for now, has not ordered American forces to resume strikes against the rebels.

The U.S. last year carried out a nearly two-month airstrike campaign against the Houthis in an effort to open international shipping lanes in the Red Sea.

The Houthis had disrupted the waterway for months with their own attacks in response to Israel mounting a blockade on the Gaza Strip. Trump halted strikes after the U.S. military burned through hundreds of millions of dollars in munitions.

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy, who met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Riyadh earlier this week, told reporters Thursday that he was concerned the Saudis lacked a clear endgame for the military campaign.

Magnitude 7.7 quake shakes Panama, prompting evacuations

BY JUAN ZAMORANO AND ALMA SOLÍS

PANAMA CITY — A powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck Panama on Friday morning, shaking buildings in the capital, prompting evacuations and sending tremors as far as neighboring Colombia.

The quake was centered about six miles southwest of the remote community of Pitaloza Arriba, in the central province of Herrera, the

U.S. Geological Survey said. It struck at a depth of six miles. USGS initially reported the quake as magnitude 8, then revised it to 7.6 and later to 7.7.

Visibly shaken residents of Panama City gathered outside as they waited for news of the quake's impact. Aftershocks followed, with the USGS recording two measuring 5.8 and 5.5.

"We felt it very strongly. It knocked things over in the kitchen, but we're OK, though we're very scared,"

Rosendo Domínguez, 60, who is from Herrera province, where the earthquake struck, told the Associated Press by phone. "Everyone is outside, scared."

The National Weather Service issued a tsunami warning Friday for the coasts of Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Nicaragua and Guatemala.

Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino called for calm, writing on X: "What happened should not be used to cause alarm or disor-

der."

Omar Smith of the National Civil Protection Service said on the Telemetro Reporta news channel that damage was concentrated in the central provinces of Veraguas, Herrera and Los Santos. He said there were no reports of damage in the capital, which is known for its hundreds of skyscrapers.

Video aired by local news outlets showed a Catholic cathedral collapsing and part of a hotel's facade falling onto a car in the city of

Penonomé, in the central province of Coclé. No casualties were immediately reported.

Panama lies along the "Ring of Fire," a 25,000-mile arc of volcanoes and fault lines around the Pacific Basin, where most of the world's earthquakes occur.

Panama's Civil Protection said it was investigating possible damage in regions near the epicenter.

Zamorano and Solís write for the Associated Press.

The new Saudi-led offensive aims to retake territory the Houthis seized a month ago along Yemen's western Red Sea coast and the strategic Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Their presence there threatens a crucial alternative shipping route to the Strait of Hormuz, where Iranian attacks on ships have curtailed traffic.

British Consulate in East Jerusalem is downgraded

legal.

U.K.-Israel dispute stems from West Bank settlements regarded as illegal occupation.

BY CARA ANNA AND JILL LAWLESS

JERUSALEM — Israel said Thursday that the British Consulate in East Jerusalem has “ceased to function” in that capacity and that 20 staffers will leave the country, deepening the biggest diplomatic rift between the close allies in decades.

The sign outside the consulate was taken down, but Britain said the building remains open and a core staff will continue to deliver “vital services” and work with Palestinians. The U.K. government said it would not retaliate by expelling Israeli diplomats as it seeks to rebuild its staff.

The dispute began last month when the United Kingdom banned trade with Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. The United Nations and much of the international community consider all settlements il-

“Israel will no longer turn its cheek to diplomatic attacks against it,” Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said in a statement, adding that the building would continue to operate with a “task force” of seven diplomats and a “very limited” scope of activity. Twenty British diplomats will leave Israel, including the consul general.

British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband said in a statement that the building “will be known as the U.K. Mission, Jerusalem” after discussions with Israel’s government, and a small team of diplomats would continue to operate there.

BARRICADES block the road leading to the British mission in East Jerusalem.
MAHMOUD ILLEAN Associated Press

“We will work in the coming months to build back up our presence,” Miliband said.

"This will ensure that we maintain our long-standing British presence and the U.K.'s role in support of a two-state solution," Miliband added.

Britain had threatened to expel Israeli diplomats if the consulate was closed but said it would not do so for now because it's in talks with Israel about expanding the mission.

Meanwhile, “our diplomats are going to be able to carry out their important work in relation to, for example, relations with the Palestinians, but also supporting British nationals visiting the area," Middle East Minister Stephen Doughty told Times Radio.

Miliband made clear that Britain does “not accept that the government of Israel has the legal right to close the British Consulate General in Jerusalem, which has been there for nearly 200 years.” The foreign secretary added that the U.K. government reiterates its view that East Jerusalem “is occupied territory.”

The U.K. and Israel continue to have close defense and security cooperation, but diplomatic relations have deteriorated over Israel's conduct of the war with the Hamas militant group in Gaza and Britain's decision last year to recognize a Palestinian state.

Last month's announcement of the ban on trade with Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank marked a significant toughening of Britain's stance toward a longtime ally.

Doughty, the Middle East minister, said the U.K. has “a strong and ongoing relationship with Israel.”

Israel captured the West Bank, along with Gaza and East Jerusalem, in the 1967 Mideast war, territories the

Palestinians want for a future state. Since then, the Israeli government has built scores of settlements that are home to well over 500,000 Jewish settlers. Many settlements resemble fully developed suburbs.

The current government under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the most nationalist and religious in Israel's history, views the West Bank as the biblical and historical homeland of the Jewish people and sees the settlements as key to maintaining security.

Rubio refuses to comment on Guilfoyle allegations

U.S. AMBASSADOR to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle embraces Secretary of State Marco Rubio this week.

BY MATTHEW LEE

ATHENS — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio flatly refused to comment on a new report alleging that U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle engaged in improper and possibly illegal conduct before taking up her post.

Rubio told reporters that he would not discuss the allegations contained in a Wall Street Journal article that said Guilfoyle had asked a donor and supporter of President Trump to pay a \$100,000 credit card bill just before her confirmation hearing, promising him access to administration officials if he did.

He spoke before leaving Greece, where he delivered a speech calling for European countries to return to what he described as their civilizational roots.

Rubio said he was aware of the Wall Street Journal's report, which was published late Wednesday, but had no idea if it was true and he would not address it.

"You guys walk around thinking that because some source told you something and you reported it, it's the gospel. It's not the gospel. It's not the gospel for me. That's not the way we do things," he said at the foot of his plane as Guilfoyle looked on.

At a joint news conference with the Greek foreign minister on Wednesday, Rubio said he would not address the allegations while visiting a foreign country but added, “Suffice it to say our embassy here is doing a great job. Our ambassador has been a strong ambassador here.”

The top two Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs and Senate Foreign Relations committees have called for an investigation into Guilfoyle, but Rubio would not say if he was prepared to open one.

Congressional Democrats already were looking into claims reported last month by the Wall Street Journal that Guilfoyle acted improperly while serving as the top U.S. envoy to Greece.

The Journal reported that Guilfoyle told guests at a reception that the U.S. could undermine the Greek government if it chose to, promoted the business interests of one particular Greek construction and energy company, and allowed its lobbyist into private diplomatic meetings.

Guilfoyle, a former Fox News Channel host and California prosecutor who was once engaged to Trump's son Donald Jr., has denied any wrongdoing and Rubio has defended her before.

Far-right win has migrants questioning life in Germany

MATTHIAS SCHRADER Associated Press
ULRICH SIEGMUND led the AfD to victory in Germany's Saxony-Anhalt state.

BY KIRSTEN GRIESHABER

BERLIN — Ever since the far-right, anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany party won a regional election last month, not a day goes by without Ola Akhras and her husband discussing whether they should go back to Syria.

The couple live with their two young daughters in Magdeburg, where Saxony-Anhalt's newly elected state legislature met Tuesday for the first time since the Alternative for Germany, or AfD, surged to its best result yet and put the party in a strong position to form Germany's first far-right regional government since World War II.

During its first sitting, the 83-seat legislature elected Tobias Rausch from AfD as its speaker, a job that traditionally goes to the largest party and was considered an initial symbolic victory. The state's next governor is unlikely to be chosen before December.

"It's bad — we've built our lives here, we really loved being here, but now we don't feel welcome anymore," said Akhras, who fled Homs for Germany in 2018. She speaks fluent German and works as a doctor at the local hospital, where she is completing her specialist training in internal medicine.

Akhras, who wears a hijab, says she feels appreciated at work but has lately encountered hostility while shopping and no longer feels safe leaving home in the evening. Her sense of not belonging has become overwhelming since the election.

"Our children will never be recognized as Germans here," she said.

The mood in society is very different from a decade ago, when Germans welcomed more than a million migrants from war-torn countries such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan under Chancellor Angela Merkel. Many built new lives, learned the language and found work.

However, as Germany's economic problems — slow growth, high inflation, rising energy prices — have worsened, public sentiment toward the newcomers has deteriorated. The AfD and other critics of immigration have blamed migrants for the country's problems.

The 13-year-old party has gained support particularly rapidly in Germany's formerly communist and economically weaker eastern states, including Saxony-Anhalt. However, it also continues to gain on the national level. It is the strongest opposition party in Parliament and leads recent polls.

The AfD's victory in Saxony-Anhalt last month underlined the party's skill in capitalizing on discontent with issues well beyond its core theme of curbing immigration as Chancellor Friedrich Merz's unpopular national government struggles to turn around Germany's stubbornly sluggish economy.

The party's strong showing has unsettled migrants and those Germans who thought the nation was immune to nationalism after the horrors of the Nazi past.

It remains uncertain that AfD will form the next government in Saxony-Anhalt — it fell three seats short of a majority in the Sept. 6 election. But many immigrants and refugees fear that if the far-right party succeeds in heading the state government it could try to implement its campaign promises, which include more and faster deportations as well as restrictions on the admission of asylum seekers.

There are no figures yet showing whether racist incidents have increased since the election, but “counseling centers are extremely busy, the phones are ringing off the hook, counseling appointments are fully booked, and people are in great need of counseling and support," said Undra Dressler, the executive director of the Saxony-Anhalt State Network of Migrant Organizations.

"We know of people who have left, people who are considering it, and people who have made a conscious decision against it and say: 'I'm staying. I won't accept these conditions. Now more than ever, I'm going to get involved,' ” Dressler said.

One of those determined to stay is Mohamad Aldabagh, a pharmacist from Homs who fled to Germany in 2015 at the height of Syria's civil war. That year, hundreds of thousands crossed the Mediterranean on flimsy rubber boats in hopes of finding a safer future in Europe.

"It's been a very good experience living in Germany over the past 10 years," said Aldabagh, 34, a father of two young children who works at a pharmacy in Magdeburg. "I've rebuilt my life here, and

I won't let anyone take that away from me."

Although he says he has experienced racism as well, he believes that skilled workers like him or the many foreign doctors working in Germany are needed and that society can't afford to treat them badly.

Although the AfD program for Saxony-Anhalt does not reject labor migration altogether, it takes a highly selective approach to recruiting foreign workers.

The party explicitly proposes refraining from recruiting workers it describes as “culturally foreign” and ending a state program designed to support the integration of foreign skilled workers, says Rahim Hajji, a professor of social and health services at Magdeburg-Stendal University of Applied Sciences.

“This raises a fundamental question,” Hajji said. “How is a state with an aging population and growing labor shortages supposed to meet its demand for skilled workers if it substantially restricts the pool of international workers it is willing to recruit?”

As of this August, more than 1 in 4 doctors, or 27.1%, in Saxony-Anhalt's hospitals did not have German citizenship, according to a survey by Mediendienst Integration group, which researches migration in Germany.

“We want to contribute to the well-being of society here,” Aldabagh said. “We are needed. We are not the black sheep in this country.”

He then paused and added: "But if we don't get respect anymore, then we'll move to another state where AfD isn't as strong."

King Charles pays off debt for Andrew

BY DANICA KIRKA

LONDON — King Charles III paid \$2 million to cover costs owed by the former Prince Andrew, his younger brother, after he was forced to move out of a crown-owned home near Windsor Castle due to his links to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Charles lent the money to his brother, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, out of his private income to ensure that the Crown Estate was paid on time, a person familiar with the payment said Friday.

The revelation came after the Crown Estate, which manages crown properties, said Mountbatten-Windsor was charged \$2.4 million due to the dilapidated state of the property and received a credit of \$400,000 as compensation for the early surrender of his lease. That left him with a debt of \$2 million, which the king paid.

The Crown Estate released the figures on Friday as it announced that Mountbatten-Windsor had fully vacated the Royal Lodge, a stately 30-room home surrounded by parkland near Windsor Castle, west of London. He left the lodge in February.

The Crown Estate is an independent company established by Parliament to manage a vast portfolio of properties throughout the United Kingdom that is nominally owned by the sovereign during his lifetime but is operated for the benefit of taxpayers.

"The lease for Royal Lodge has ended and our focus now is firmly on its future use and the opportunities to generate additional financial value for the nation from its early return," the Crown Estate said in a statement.

Charles stripped his brother of his princely title and ordered him to leave Royal Lodge last year as the monarch sought to shield the rest of the royal family from the continuing scandal of Mountbatten-Windsor's relationship with Epstein. The moves came as the U.S. Justice Department released millions of pages of documents from its investigation into Epstein, revealing previously unknown details about his links to the former prince.

Mountbatten-Windsor's continuing residence at Royal Lodge was a particularly sensitive issue for many people because he paid no rent on the house and surrounding 99.5 acres.

The former prince signed a 75-year lease on Royal Lodge in 2003, when he was still a working member of the royal family, attending public events on behalf of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, and serving as Britain's special trade representative. The lease required Mountbatten-Windsor to spend \$10 million on renovating the property and make a one-time payment of \$1.3 million.

Mountbatten-Windsor was entitled to compensation for the renovation expenses if he surrendered the lease within the first 25 years, the Crown Estate said.

Mountbatten-Windsor, 66, gave up his role as trade envoy in 2011 and stepped away from all royal duties in 2019 because of concerns about his relationship with Epstein.

After he moved out of Royal Lodge in February, Mountbatten-Windsor moved to a home on the Sandringham Estate in eastern England, which is privately owned by the king.

Just days later, Mount-batten-Windsor was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office related to allegations that he gave sensitive information to Epstein during his time as special trade envoy. Police questioned the former prince for 11 hours and conducted searches at Royal Lodge and his new home in Sandringham.

Mountbatten-Windsor has denied any wrongdoing related to his relationship with Epstein.

Trump strikes deal with Putin for Russian diesel

THE PRICE of diesel fuel is shown as \$7.95 per gallon at a Shell gas station in Carson on Wednesday.

Years of pressure on Moscow are reversed to counter fuel prices ahead of midterms.

BY MICHELLE L. PRICE AND COLLIN BINKLEY

WASHINGTON — President Trump said that he has struck a deal to obtain diesel from Russia, a stunning reversal of years of U.S. pressure on Moscow over its war with Ukraine and an attempt to address high fuel prices ahead of the U.S. midterm elections.

Trump said on social media on Friday that he struck the deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin in a phone call in which he was expected to discuss a suspected case of plague in Russia.

Instead, Trump said that Russia will immediately supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel, followed by an additional 500,000 tons in November and 1 million tons “immediately thereafter.” Russia will deliver an additional 3 million tons “within a short period of time” after that, he wrote.

Trump's shocking announcement comes after he signed a sweeping Russia sanctions law last month that aimed at clamping down on Russia's energy economy, among other areas, that fuel its war against Ukraine.

Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority."

The White House did not respond to questions about who was paying for the diesel from Russia and when the fuel being supplied under the agreement would become available.

Gas prices globally have surged as the war in Iran upends the energy sector. The national average for a gallon of diesel in the U.S. was \$6.23 on Friday, according to AAA, after hitting a record \$6.52 on Sept. 22.

A statement from Putin, released by the Kremlin on Friday, said that during their call he and Trump dedicated “significant attention to the prospects of resolving the Ukrainian crisis” and also discussed “the situation around Iran and various aspects of bilateral relations.”

Russia "confirmed its readiness to supply oil and oil products to the American and global markets," Putin said. "I am confident that this will have a positive impact on the entire global economy."

The two leaders agreed to continue contacts, Putin said in the statement.

Zelensky, in a lengthy post online reacting to the deal, said Russia would repay it “with further terror and perfidy.” He cast it as an investment in the war, allowing it to be prolonged.

"It plays into Russia's hands — allowing it to kill more, wage war for longer, have even less respect for America, and inflict even greater losses and damage on the world," he said.

Rep. Don Beyer of Virginia, the senior House Democrat on the Joint Economic Committee, called Trump's announcement “infuriating.”

“This is what we warned anyone who would listen: Trump isn't the slightest bit trustworthy when it comes to Russia,” Beyer said in a statement on X. “Giving him expanded tariff powers in hopes he would use them to help Ukraine was a mistake. Now he's lifting sanctions on Russian fossil fuels.”

The law Trump signed last month envisions sanctions on Russian officials, banks and a shadow fleet of tankers and bans all new U.S. investment in Russia and the handling of sovereign debt.

It also directed Trump to impose tariffs of up to 100% on the top five importers of Russian oil or natural gas, with an exception for countries that import less than 15% of Russia's natural gas exports and have taken significant steps to reduce those imports.

The U.S. has not imported Russian oil or gas since 2022, when the Biden administration banned such imports because of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called it “a weak decision, unfortunately, a weak decision by strong partners,” according to a statement released by the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington.

Trump announced the deal as his envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner were meeting with Ukrainian officials in Miami to discuss a proposal to try to end the Russia-Ukraine war.

"I believe our team is simply being used as a smoke-screen. And that is certainly not fair. It is certainly not how partners should treat each other," Zelensky said.

Trump's move casts doubt on the likelihood of the White House imposing sanctions on Russia this month, given that a bipartisan law passed by Congress directs the administration to target the top importers of Russian oil and gas.

Trump, in his announcement, did not address the sanctions or Russia's war but said, "Lower prices for Americans, especially our

By Bill Barrow

ATLANTA — Not long ago, Georgia gubernatorial nominee Rick Jackson eagerly compared himself to his fellow billionaire in the Oval Office. He promised to be Donald Trump “with a Southern tone.” And sharing a summer rally stage, Jackson pointed at the president and declared, “I’m going to be this man’s favorite governor.”

On the debate stage this week with his Democratic opponent, however, Jackson discussed Trump only when Keisha Lance Bottoms brought him up. And he assured his audience that he'd "stand up to anybody."

Jackson is not alone in his recalibration: Republican nominees for Senate, the U.S. House and governor's offices across the country are sidestepping President Trump or openly distancing themselves as they debate before election day.

Those tactics, not unlike Republicans scrubbing Trump from their campaign websites, are the latest signs of how much Trump's standing has fallen because of voters' frustration with inflation, the Iran war and other matters. And the dynamics highlight the perilous options many Republicans face as they try to stitch together winning coalitions that go beyond Trump's core supporters.

“Republicans right now are facing a voter turnout problem” in their own party, said GOP pollster Paul Shu-

maker, and must win “unaffiliated voters” who care most about the economy.

“You have to have something significant to change this narrative,” Shumaker said. But, he explained, that means “a significant victory in Iran” and seismic economic improvements — not something any Republican midterm candidate can force from behind a debate lectern.

A tightrope on Iran, tariffs and rhetoric

FOR THE RECORD

Some Republicans are taking specific positions at odds with the president.

Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers said in his debate Thursday with Democrat Abdul El-Sayed that he'd urged the White House privately to reach a trade deal with Canada and end the president's tariffs. Canada is Michigan's largest trading partner, as it is for many Great Lakes and Midwestern states.

Days before, Rogers unveiled a new ad in which he said, “We know that Canada is not our enemy. We need to end the tariff war — now.”

That's a noticeable departure from Rogers' earlier, less specific statements praising Trump's "America First" economic agenda while saying tariffs are not a "one-size-fits-all" solution.

Another Michigan Republican, Rep. Tom Barrett, already had bucked the president by voting for a war powers resolution intended to assert congressional authority over military actions in Iran. But debating Democrat Will Lawrence in their central Michigan district, Barrett added a criticism of Trump's rhetoric Monday in Nebraska, where he floated the possibility of Iran attacking San Diego and Los Angeles.

The president mentioned those cities as part of his argument that higher gas prices because of his Iran war are a “small price to pay” to keep the country safe. But Democrats seized on the remarks, some insisting that Trump was calling for Iran to attack U.S. cities.

Barrett was asked whether Trump's words were acceptable. Given the opportunity to echo the White House explanation that Trump was off-handedly mentioning a worst-case scenario he was trying to prevent, Barrett offered no defense.

“Nope,” he said flatly.

Reflecting the complex electoral balance, most Republicans have attempted to separate themselves without naming any firm difference with the president.

Embracing, then pushing back

Running for a promotion to the Senate, Iowa U.S. Rep. Ashley Hinson tried in her debate Wednesday against Democrat Josh Turek to reconcile her earlier promises to be a Trump ally in Congress's upper chamber. She said it would be "really easy" to keep her word and still be bipartisan — a buzzword she's already been featuring in her campaign.

"I'll be President Donald Trump's ally when it is important for Iowa, but I will push back on him — he knows this, because I talk to him regularly — on things that are wrong for our state," she said. "That's true no matter who's in the White House. That's true no matter who is governing and who has the gavel."

That's the same path Jackson took in Georgia, as he pivoted away from Trump by embracing departing Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican who has clashed with the president, starting with Trump's false claims that he won Georgia in the 2020 presidential election.

“I will stand up to anybody, just like Brian Kemp has done,” Jackson said.

Another Republican House member, Mike Lawler of New York, made a point of name-checking a Democratic colleague, New Jersey's Josh Gottheimer, and discussing bills they'd work on together. It was part of his argument that he's able to challenge Trump and the party line.

"When I agree with the president, I say it. When I disagree with the president, I say it," he said in his closing remarks.

Hinson, meanwhile, referenced bills she's worked on in the House that have been signed into law by both President Biden and Trump.

But she also avoided criticizing Trump when asked about the president sending Affordable Care Act rebate checks to some Americans and promising a \$5,000 bonus after the midterm elections if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate.

She said she “cares very deeply” about making sure Congress maintains the power of the purse and thinks it’s important to “live better within our means.”

Regardless of the Republican efforts, Democrats have continued peppering them with attacks and retorts about Trump. The most heated moments came when Democrat Cait Conley repeatedly said Lawler always voted with Trump.

“No matter how many times you say 100% of the time,” the congressman answered, “it’s provably false.”

ICE officers say they were in danger in shooting

Officials say man in New York was struck in neck as he drove with 5-year-old inside.

BY REBECCA SANTANA AND PHILIP MARCELO

WASHINGTON — Federal immigration officers opened fire on a Dominican man in New York because he drove his car into officers' vehicles and they believed their lives were in danger, a senior Immigration and Customs Enforcement official said Friday.

The 28-year-old man, whom New York City police identified as Oscar Belgal, was shot “superficially” in the neck as ICE officers attempted to arrest him, said Marcos Charles, head of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations. Authorities have not released details of Belgal’s condition.

Officers used their vehicles to block the man as he attempted to drive away, but he accelerated toward them, Charles said during a news conference with U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin in Washington. The Department of Homeland Security said the news conference was about the “dangerous consequences of sanctuary city policies.”

"Our officers, using their training and believing that their life and the life of the partners and the general public were in danger, used their training and fired weapons," Charles said.

Belgal had his 5-year-old son in the car with him when the shooting happened, officials said.

Mullin said that ICE agents didn't know the child was in the car but that Belgal "was aware" and chose to put the boy at risk by trying to evade officers.

Belgal was associated with a robbery crew that used mopeds and weapons, and was convicted of grand larceny last year and sentenced to five years of probation, Charles said, adding that he evaded officers in

September when ICE tried to arrest him for deportation.

The Legal Aid Society, which was representing Belgal in an ongoing drug case, called Friday for a “full and transparent” investigation of the shooting, the officers involved to be held accountable and an end to “ICE’s escalating presence in New York City.”

Belgal has pleaded not guilty to narcotics-sale charges in the drug case. The Legal Aid Society did not comment further.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, both Democrats, said late Thursday that they had pressed Mullin and President Trump to release Belgal, but to no avail. They also urged the administration to immediately release ICE officers' body camera footage of the shooting and to halt immigration enforcement operations in the city.

Mullin said Belgal was being held in a “highly secured” detention facility outside New York City but declined to say where.

Attorneys representing Belgal filed an emergency petition Thursday night calling for his release. A hearing was scheduled for Friday afternoon.

Mullin also confirmed ICE officers were wearing body cameras that were activated but didn't say when any of that footage would be released. Under agency policy, bodycam video can be released within 72 hours if "determined that it is in the best interests of the agency."

On Friday, New York City police released footage from its officers as they arrived at the scene following the shooting. The department previously said its officers were not involved in the arrest and not at the scene when the shooting happened.

The video shows a city officer responding to a chaotic scene where Belgal — sitting on the ground with his hands behind his back and head drooping to one side — was surrounded by several officials. The video shows officers lifting Belgal and placing him in a black SUV. Police said he was taken to a hospital.

“Yo put pressure. Put pressure,” an officer can be heard saying as the SUV reverses down the block.

New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Belgal was pulling into a parking space when a federal officer in plainclothes approached with his gun drawn, followed by another federal officer who also wasn't in uniform. Belgal started to pull the car forward, and at least one of the officers fired seven rounds, hitting the man below his left ear.

Protesters and local officials decried the shooting as an example of the dangers of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.

"There is no justification for what we have seen today," Mamdani said late Thursday at the scene of the shooting.

Federal officers who surrounded the vehicle wore construction vests and masks, making it difficult to identify them as immigration officers, he said.

Mullin devoted much of Friday's news conference to criticizing Mamdani and New York City's limits on cooperation with ICE. The Democrat, who took office in January, has restricted local cooperation with immigration enforcement operations and repeatedly called for the abolition of ICE.

“Sanctuary politicians, they create an environment for criminal activity to thrive, not for the American citizens to be safe,” Mullin said.

ICE has asked local officials in New York to hold on to more than 14,000 people for federal officers to collect and place in immigration detention, he said.

“Silence. Absolute silence is what we have gotten back,” the secretary said. “Why would they release these individuals back onto the streets?”

“We’re enforcing our nation’s laws. We’re not picking and choosing,” Mullin continued. “Why is that controversial? We should all want law and order on our streets.”

During Trump's second term, Homeland Security has often accused suspects of attempting to ram officers with vehicles or otherwise pose a threat and using that as justification for opening fire.

But evidence from other shootings involving immigration enforcement officers has sometimes called into question that rationale.

In the Jan. 7 shooting death of Renee Good in Minneapolis, Homeland Security officials initially claimed an ICE officer opened fire in self-defense after Good attempted to run him over with her vehicle. Videos filmed from multiple angles challenged the administration's narrative.

On July 10, ICE officers fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston as the Mexican national was driving his construction crew to a job site. Homeland Security maintained Salgado Araujo rammed an ICE vehicle, but the three men inside his vehicle disputed the narrative.

Last year in a Chicago suburb, immigration officers fatally shot Silverio Villegas González after they say the Mexican national drove at them and dragged one with his car, causing “serious injuries.” But body camera videos from local police showed the agent who shot Villegas González walking around afterward and dismissing his own injuries as “nothing major.”

Rain arriving in SoCal with coastal flooding risk

low by the time it reached California.

WORKERS put sandbags and plywood around a Capistrano Beach home Friday as a wave hits the seawall.

[Storm, from A1]

only the second time a tropical storm watch has been issued in California.

The incoming storm could damage porches, awnings, carports, sheds and unanchored mobile homes, and snap off large tree branches, posing a safety risk, the weather service office said. It warned of hazardous driving conditions on bridges and other elevated roadways.

Predictions that Rachel, currently spinning about 800 miles off the coast of San Diego, will actually strengthen as it approaches the West Coast is unusual and remarkable, said UC Agriculture and Natural Resources climate scientist Daniel Swain.

Typically, once storms enter the cooler water in the eastern tropical Pacific they weaken significantly. But a marine heat wave and El Niño conditions — bringing ocean temperatures 10 to 13 degrees higher than normal

— have provided a more conducive environment for Rachel.

“It’s notable that this is an unusual event that’s being made possible by both coincidence of this early arriving low-pressure trough off the coast of California and the record warm ... ocean temperatures off the coast of California right now,” Swain said during a briefing Friday.

On Friday morning, Southern Californians got a preview of what's to come with Rachel's arrival.

Streets on the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach were flooded with at least a foot of water during high tide, with the police department advising residents and motorists to avoid the area. The flooding was remarkable even in a neighborhood that has been prone to regular water inundations, particularly during El Niño.

“This is the worst I’ve seen it in my 20 years on the Peninsula,” said Councilman Joe Stapleton.

Water from a massive swell — double the size that was initially predicted — blasted through 20-foot berms erected at the Wedge and washed out roads from about 21st Street to 6th Street, officials said.

"This swell was very unprecedented coming up that high," said Georgia Rios, a spokesperson for the city of Newport Beach. "We knew we were going to have a high swell due to Tropical Storm Rachel, but along with El Niño it really has been a combination force here in Newport."

The city declared a local emergency Friday and urged residents to pick up sandbags to protect their homes over the weekend. City crews are pumping out water on the streets, rebuilding beach berms and opening tide valves to help mitigate water intrusion.

“This is not even the worst that is expected,” Rios said. “It’s forecast to get even worse on Sunday with rain.”

In Laguna Beach, Coast Highway and Broadway was inundated with water from big waves and high tide. The typically sandy sections of Main Beach — where locals often gather to walk along the sand and play beach volleyball — were transformed into a sea of water.

At San Onofre State Beach, the road that surfers and beachgoers use to access the spot was damaged resulting in a myriad of parking issues. The beach has been undergone significant coastal erosion in recent years and advocates say it could be hit hard this winter.

In Long Beach, which has been hit hard this season by a series of back-to-back distant hurricanes, powerful waves crumbled large sections of the boardwalk on the peninsula and left several homes with severe structural damage. Video showed waves slamming against the bulkhead that protects beachfront homes.

The city has already been besieged by an unusually active, El Niño-fueled hurricane season, taking damage from Hurricane Marie over Labor Day weekend and Hurricane Polo last month.

“We’ve had three storms back pretty much back to back to back,” said Laath Martin, a spokesperson for the city.

Officials have red-tagged two properties, including a duplex with three units. Three buildings have also been yellow-tagged after sustaining damage from Hurricane Marie ahead of Rachel's arrival.

Long Beach has already distributed more than 7,500 sandbags, as residents prepare for what could feel like a very long weekend.

"It's hard to predict exactly what will happen, but just based on forecasts, we're preparing for more damage," Martin said.

Rain timing

Across Southern California, the highest chances of rain are between Sunday morning and Monday night, forecasters say. In Los Angeles County, rain is expected to be light to moderate, ranging from about a quarter of an inch to an inch across much of the region. A bit more rain is expected in the San Gabriel Mountains, according to the weather service office in Oxnard.

Rain rates are probably going to be a quarter of an inch per hour or less, making debris flow and landslides unlikely.

"There will be a couple thunderstorms out and about, especially later on Sunday. But we're not looking at any long duration excessive rainfall," Cohen said on Friday.

A bit more rain is expected in Orange and San Diego counties with coastal areas receiving half an inch to an inch over the weekend and into early next week. Higher elevations, including Big Bear and Julian, could get up to an inch and a half of precipitation.

While tropical moisture from the remnants of Rachel is expected to deliver only light rain to much of Southern California, the Mojave Desert and the Inland Empire could see more significant precipitation.

The weather service is warning that there is a moderate, or 40% chance, of excessive rainfall that could lead to flash flooding in places like San Diego, El Cajon, Chula Vista, Escondido, Palm Springs and Twenty-nine Palms. A moderate risk means that numerous flash floods are likely, and that many streams may flood. There is a potential that the San Diego River near Fashion Valley could reach minor flood stage.

There's also a $15\%$ chance of that occurring in Ocean-side, San Clemente, Laguna Niguel, Riverside, San Bernardino, Las Vegas and the California-Arizona border; and a $5\%$ chance in places like Huntington Beach, Santa Ana, Long Beach, Anaheim, Pomona, Victorville, Barstow, and most of Arizona and southern Utah.

Wind

The tropical storm watch in San Diego County means that there is a potential for winds of 39 mph to 57 mph. "Act now to complete preparations before the wind becomes hazardous," the weather service said. "Prepare for limited wind damage."

Other potential sources of damage could include shallow rooted trees that could snap or uproot, “especially in coastal and valley locations that don’t typically experience strong winds.”

The weather service also warned of hazardous seas off the San Diego County coast.

“Very strong winds will cause hazardous seas, which could capsize or damage vessels and reduce visibility,” the weather service said. “Tropical storm-force winds could begin as early as Saturday night but are most likely to occur during the day Sunday.”

Flooding risk

Coastal flooding will remain the biggest concern for the region in the coming days, particularly for south-facing shores including Long Beach, Malibu and Point Mugu. Swells will not only bring the potential for water intrusion, but also life threatening surf, ranging from 3 to 6 feet in some areas, and rip currents, according to the weather service.

Tides in Southern California are expected to be 1 foot to 1.5 feet above what would ordinarily be expected without the abnormally warm ocean temperatures wrought by El Niño. The high tides and surf, a Kelvin wave, and winds up to 40 mph could all contribute to coastal flooding, forecasters say, though it's too soon to say how severe.

“Even though the main traditional tropical storm direct impacts will be well south of the Los Angeles area, folks from Long Beach, San Pedro, all the way up through Malibu, Zuma Beach area and Catalina Island, especially south to west-facing beaches, need to be aware that especially Sunday we will see an escalation in coastal flooding concerns, with the potential for some major damage in some areas,” Cohen said.

A coastal flood advisory for Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties — warning of the potential for flooding in beach parking lots, boardwalks and roads, with isolated road closures expected, along with minor coastal erosion — is expected to remain in effect through Tuesday afternoon.

The tropical storm watch issued for San Diego County is only the second time in state history such a warning has been issued. The first was for Tropical Storm Hilary in 2023, which had degenerated into a post-tropical

Hilary still brought record-breaking rain to the region, resulting in washed out streets, damaged homes and widespread power outages. It unleashed debris flows in San Bernardino County, flooded the Coachella Valley and damaged roads in Death Valley National Park.

This time around, the real problem will be coastal flooding, said Miguel Miller, a meteorologist with the weather service office in San Diego.

“We’ve got water that’s already high and then we’re going to have periods of high tides each morning and evening and then on top of that we have high surf,” he said. “We have all these things stacking up on each other and we’ve already seen in recent weeks how just the high tides, even without the large surf, is putting water into places where it doesn’t usually go.”

This comes as forecasters say odds are increasing that this El Niño will be the strongest in the modern record, which goes back 76 years.

El Niño update

On Thursday, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center said the chance of a historic, record-breaking El Niño is now 83%, up from the probability of 75% issued last month.

The climate pattern typically emerges every two to seven years and is marked by the heating of ocean waters in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific, which spurs changes in the atmosphere that can affect weather around the world.

In Southern California, strong El Niños are generally associated with higher-than-average rainfall. Some of the strongest El Niño years, like in 1982-83 and 1997-98, left a swath of devastation across the state.

But not all of them turn out that way. The 2015-16 El Niño season didn't deliver elevated rainfall, but resulted in record coastal erosion.

“From the big picture standpoint ... all that warmth in the Pacific Ocean means there is a whole lot more energy available to convey to the atmosphere to create those storm systems that come along,” Michael Anderson, a state climatologist with the Department of Water Resources, said during a California Natural Resources Agency webinar on Thursday.

"There is all the energy we have ever seen available for these wintertime storms to make use of, and that's why we want to pay attention," he added.

Hurricane Isaias lashes U.S. Gulf Coast with wind and rain

Homeowners gassed up generators, filled bathtubs with water and bought last-minute supplies along the U.S. Gulf Coast on Friday while Hurricane Isaias gained strength as it charged toward the beaches of Alabama and the Florida Panhandle.

The Category 3 storm has grown into a major hurricane — the first of an unusually quiet Atlantic season — and was expected to make landfall Friday night.

Forecasters warned of a significant storm surge, damaging winds, flooding and possibly even tornadoes before the storm loses steam as it moves inland and delivers strong winds and rain well north into Atlanta.

Tropical storm-force winds began to lash the Gulf shoreline around midday, hours before Isaias was expected to make landfall between Mobile Bay on the Alabama coast and the city of Destin in the Florida Panhandle. The low-lying coastal area is known for its powdery white sand beaches dotted with vacation homes, waterfront bars and seafood shacks.

Residents in Panama City, Fla., braved the rain while filling sandbags Friday to protect their houses.

“I mean, it’s just the nature of the beast. It’s Florida,” said Corliss Stone, who works for the fire department.

Many will brave Isaias at home

One of the biggest concerns is a storm surge that could be as high as 6 to 9 feet, according to the National Hurricane Center. Places most at risk include Florida's Pensacola Beach and the Gulf Islands National Seashore.

Anne Petzold, who lives with her husband in the Florida beach community of Gulf Breeze, said everyone in their neighborhood planned to ride out the storm. The couple installed hurricane shutters, picked up anything in their yard that could turn into a projectile and have two generators ready.

“Everybody does what they can do, everybody asks if they need help — they ask for help, they offer help. All good,” she said. “It’s just another adventure.”

Neighbor Jay Brazzell said he went through a checklist of things to do, including stocking up on ice and gasoline. He decided to stay put because Isaias isn't as powerful as other hurricanes he's experienced.

“I mean I’m not boarding up,” said Brazzell, 69. “I’ve been through, this being, the ninth hurricane.”

Dangerous conditions were expected throughout the western panhandle, southern Alabama and southern Mississippi, the National Hurricane Center said. Rain began falling along the coast Friday morning, and tropical storm conditions were picking up in the early afternoon.

In a sign of how serious the warnings are, dozens of Waffle Houses in the Florida Panhandle were closed, according to the company's website. The beloved Southern chain is known for staying open through severe weather and is a measuring stick of a storm's severity.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis warned residents to expect power outages, gasoline shortages and closures of bridges and highways.

As of early evening, the storm was centered about 90 miles south of Pensacola and moving to the north-northeast, with maximum sustained winds of 115 mph, the center said. Category 3 storms are considered major hurricanes and are capable of causing devastation.

The whole region could be soaked

Once Isaias comes ashore, it is expected to weaken until it is downgraded to a tropical storm by Saturday afternoon, the hurricane center said.

Still, heavy rain is forecast as it moves inland, with 4 to 8 inches or even more expected through the weekend from southern Alabama to southwestern Georgia.

Isaias, which will be the first hurricane to hit the eastern U.S. since Milton tore up the Gulf Coast of Florida in 2024, also is expected to bring heavy rain and potential flooding to much of the Southeast over the weekend, and then to parts of the Midwest and Northeast into Monday.

Isaias grounds many flights in the area

A hurricane warning was in place from Ocean Springs, Miss., to the western Florida Panhandle. Several counties announced mandatory evacuations and Mobile, Ala., imposed a curfew beginning Friday evening until morning.

The storm grounded most Friday flights at several panhandle airports, including all flights into and out of Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport. President Trump, meanwhile, scrapped his plans to attend Saturday's football game between the University of Georgia and the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. He said he didn't want to disrupt the emergency response.

Isaias was expected to miss the oil industry's biggest hubs along the Gulf Coast, but fuel prices could rise if power outages shut down refineries for processing crude, industry experts said.

On Dauphin Island, a barrier island off the Alabama coast, Mayor Jeff Collier said he didn't expect major damage, "but at the same time, these things are very fickle and a little jog here or there, or some last-minute increase in strength — we just have to be prepared for the worst."

Meanwhile in the Pacific, Hurricane Simon became a Category 2 hurricane on Friday and was expected to strengthen further before making landfall in Mexico this weekend.

Tropical Storm Rachel was expected to bring heavy winds and rain to northern Mexico and Southern California this weekend.

'A horrifying TV show to entertain the masses'

[Livestream, from A1] the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said it would "further undermine the moral fabric of our nation and be a blight on the conscience of its people."

Matthew Robinson, a criminal justice professor at Appalachian State University and author of a book on U.S. capital punishment titled “Death Nation,” said he was “appalled” by the plans. “It strikes me as meant to be entertaining.” He said the last military execution was in 1961, and the last by firing squad was in 1945.

Hasan was an Army psychiatrist and major who in 2009 entered a medical building on the Texas military base with a lasersighted handgun, shouted "Allahu akbar" — Arabic for "God is great!" — and opened fire, killing 13 people and injuring 32 others. He has since spoken of being a "martyr" if executed.

President Trump, an outspoken proponent of the death penalty for years but also a past critic of public executions in places like Iran, has signed off on Hasan's execution but not addressed Hegseth's plans. The White House did not respond to a request for comment.

Vice President JD Vance, who is Catholic, said Friday that people should remember that Hasan “brutally murdered a lot of innocent people.” But he also said he would not watch a livestream of the execution, and expressed doubt that it is “actually going to happen.”

On his first day in office this term, Trump issued an executive order requiring federal agencies to restore the death penalty to prominence. In April, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that it had taken steps to do so, including by “expanding the protocol” to include firing squads.

Five states allow execution by firing squad: Idaho, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Utah. The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly turned down appeals contending such executions amount to “cruel and unusual punishment,” which is barred under the 8th Amendment. South Carolina executed three men by firing squad last year.

When the Supreme Court last year rejected an Alabama inmate's request to be killed by firing squad rather than with nitrogen hypoxia, liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor — joined by Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson — dissented, writing, "Boyd asks for the barest form of mercy: to die by firing squad, which would kill him in seconds, rather than by a torturous suffocation lasting up to four minutes. The Constitution would grant him that grace."

Last week, Tennessee inmate Christa Pike survived what was meant to be a lethal injection of the barbiturate pentobarbital. Other states have also struggled with executions by lethal injection in recent years.

Much of the criticism of Hegseth's plan for Hasan has centered not on the method of killing, but on the livestreaming of it.

Robin M. Maher, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center, said the center has “no record of any execution being livestreamed” and is “not aware of any regulation or precedent for a military execution to be livestreamed on the internet or otherwise made widely available to the public.”

Fox News commentator

Howard Kurtz wrote: “I’m sensing revulsion on the left and right, not so much for killing a death row prisoner — although firing squad seems extreme in the modern age — but for the Pentagon to live-stream it, turning this into a horrifying TV show to entertain the masses. Is this America?”

Daniel LaChance, an associate history professor at Emory University and author of the book “Executing Freedom: The Cultural Life of Capital Punishment in the United States,” said the last public execution in the U.S. occurred in 1936, when a Black man convicted of rape was hanged in Kentucky — which still allowed public executions after most states had abandoned the practice.

That execution was “by all accounts a grotesque carnival” and “sort of like a gladiatorial contest brought to life in the 20th century, where the crowd was surly, shouting,” LaChance said. “It was a debacle.”

That the Trump administration is seeking to turn capital punishment into a public spectacle once more, LaChance said, is out of line with decades of thinking on the issue, but in line with Trump's own ethos about crime and punishment.

“His whole brand is this kind of populist, anti-elitism. And when executions moved into the bowels of prisons in the early 20th century, they were really becoming bureaucratic affairs, run by experts, carried out in front of a small group of professionals and clergy,” LaChance said. “It was a denial of the public’s right to see a punishment that was carried out in their name, in part because there were elites who thought that the public couldn’t handle this kind of spectacle, that they were misbehaving, that it would generate more disorder when an execution is designed to do the exact opposite: to generate order."

NIDAL Malik Hasan, center in a court sketch, killed 13 people and injured 32 at Ft. Hood, Texas, in 2009.

CRITICISM of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's plan centers not on the method of execution — firing squad — but on livestreaming the killing for the public to see.

Trump clearly thinks he is pushing back against elitism and expertise and giving people what they want, LaChance said, though the question many scholars have is whether doing so will “increase people’s blood-thirst” or force them to recoil — and ultimately decrease support for such punishments.

Eugene Fidell, who teaches military justice at Yale Law School, said Trump has publicly mused about killing people by firing squad for years, so Hegseth's plans to use that method should not be surprising. However, the decision to livestream the killing is clearly a source of "dismay" for many. "Even people who are resigned to the death penalty, who don't have religious or other scruples about the death penalty, have real heartburn over this," he said.

Fidell said “brutality” has become an “operating principle” for the Trump administration broadly, with its decision to host an Ultimate Fighting tournament at the White House, its immigration tactics across the country and now its plans to livestream an execution — which Fidell said has “nothing to do” with deterring future crime.

"There's a pathology going on here that is so out of keeping with the dignity that ought to characterize the taking of a life as a result of a legal process," he said.

Robinson, of Appalachian State, said a student of his asked Friday morning what would happen when children tune in to watch the execution, which Robinson said he believes they will do, as if it's a video game. He said the idea was appalling — and not just to him.

"I imagine the rest of the world, the civilized world, will see this and have the same response that I did," he said. "They'll respond with shock."

Virginia county sues over planned arch

A REPLICA of the president's planned Triumphal Arch on the National Mall in Washington on July 1.

BY GARY FIELDS

WASHINGTON — The Arlington County Board in Virginia filed a lawsuit Thursday opposing the construction of the Triumphal Arch, becoming the first governmental body to take legal action against President Trump's planned monument.

The lawsuit, filed in the Eastern District of Virginia, criticized the speed at which the project slated for Memorial Circle has moved without going through the full review process.

"The National Park Service, the agency responsible for projects on national park land such as Memorial Circle, is proceeding full-speed toward ground-disturbing construction," the lawsuit said. "Although the agency has claimed that a final decision to construct the Arch has not yet been made and purports to be engaged in a routine decisional process, that rushed process appears to be a pretext designed to shore up justifications for building the Arch in accordance with the President's repeated marching orders."

The lawsuit asks that “the agency’s feverish pace toward construction of the arch” be halted to ensure that the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act be followed and proper analysis and testing be done.

"The Arlington County Board has filed this lawsuit because our community has the most to lose from this egregious and unlawful proposed project," Arlington County Board Chair Matt de Ferranti said in a statement. He added that the county has acted in good faith in the review process, pointing out the "severe, unique, and wide-ranging negative impacts" the project will have on the county and its residents, only to see them ignored.

Memorial Circle sits on federal parkland west of the Potomac River across the Memorial Bridge and immediately adjacent to Arlington County.

The county is being represented in the lawsuit by legal advocacy group Democracy Forward.

White House spokesman Davis Ingle said the Trump administration and White House have been “fastidiously compliant with all procedural and legal requirements and are certain this meritless and dilatory lawsuit will be dismissed.”

The arch will become one of the world's most iconic landmarks, he added. “It will enhance the visitor experience at Arlington National Cemetery for veterans, the families of the fallen, and all Americans alike.”

The lawsuit came a day after the Assn. of Flight Attendants-CWA President Sara Nelson expressed concerns that the 250-foot arch compounds multiple safety issues that she said have gone unaddressed since a deadly January 2025 crash over the Potomac River that killed 67 people. Nelson also criticized Trump's plan to turn the arch into "a top grade military complex" able to host drones and snipers while storing ammunition.

Though the arch has received early approval from the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, whose members were all tapped by Trump, a group of three veterans and an architectural historian sued in federal court in Washington, saying the project needs to be approved by Congress. The judge in that lawsuit said the administration must give the court 48 hours before undertaking any activities related to or in preparation for construction of the arch.

The arch is one of several projects around Washington that Trump has undertaken as he remakes the city, from renovating one of its storied public golf courses to threatening to demolish the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

Florida execution called off without explanation

By David Fischer

MIAMI — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has withdrawn a death warrant for the first time since taking office, calling off a man's execution just days before he was scheduled to die by lethal injection in the nation's busiest death chamber.

The Republican governor, who has aggressively used the death penalty in his final term, signed a letter Thursday withdrawing the death warrant for William Lee Thompson. The 74-year-old inmate had been set to die Tuesday for the kidnapping and murder of Sally Ivester in 1976.

A second Florida execution scheduled for the same day is still set to take place. James Robertson, 63, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and waived all appeals in the 2008 strangling of Frank Hart while the men were cellmates at Charlotte Correctional Institution, north of Fort Myers. Robertson told investigators he killed the other man so he could be moved to death row.

DeSantis did not provide a reason in the letter for withdrawing Thompson's death warrant but had temporarily stayed his execution last month pending a psychiatric evaluation. Florida prison officials, however, had still been preparing for Thompson's potential execution next week.

Thompson's attorney,

Bri Lacy, said they're relieved by the result.

“Mr. Thompson suffers from dementia and his health is failing — both of which were gravely concerning with an impending execution,” Lacy said in an email. “Now that Mr. Thompson is no longer under a death warrant, we hope FDOC [Florida Department of Corrections] will relocate him to an adequate medical facility and provide the care he needs.”

The move comes at a time of escalating attention on the death penalty in the U.S.

In Tennessee, Christa Pike survived an execution attempt last week despite receiving two lethal doses of pentobarbital. On Thursday, the Pentagon announced that the firing squad execution of Ft. Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan would be livestreamed.

Thompson will remain on Florida's death row, and a new death warrant could be signed for him in the future.

A spokesperson for De-Santis did not immediately return an email seeking comment.

Florida carried out 19 executions last year, a record in the state since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. In July, Florida became the first state in nearly a decade to execute two prisoners in one day.

President renews effort to remove Cook from Fed

BY CHRISTOPHER RUGABER

WASHINGTON — President Trump opened another chapter in his effort to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Friday by establishing a “committee of inquiry” to investigate allegations that she made false statements in mortgage applications.

The inquiry will include a hearing at the White House on Nov. 5, Trump said in a written memo, that Cook "shall" attend to answer questions from the committee. The hearing wouldn't be public but a transcript would be published, the memo said.

Trump's extraordinary demand that Cook testify before the committee will probably renew concerns about threats to the Federal Reserve's independence. The president has called for the central bank to cut its key interest rate, but just last month, the Fed raised it instead, led by Chairman Kevin Warsh, whom Trump appointed earlier this year.

Trump's attempts to fire Cook from the Fed's seven-member board of governors represent the first time in the central bank's 113-year history that a president has sought to remove a Fed governor.

"As President, it is my job to ensure the laws are faithfully executed, including by firing subordinates who cannot be trusted to tell the truth and follow the law," Trump wrote in the memorandum.

Cook's attorneys, Abbe Lowell and Norm Eisen, said they were considering having Cook appear at the Nov. 5 hearing.

“We have engaged with the White House to evaluate whether the process proposed has a possibility of being a genuine one and not simply a box-checking exercise,” Lowell and Eisen said in a statement. “Governor Cook welcomes the opportunity to present the facts so she can clear her name and demonstrate there is no legal basis to fire her.”

Trump initially tried to fire Cook in August 2025 after alleging she had committed mortgage fraud by declaring two properties to be her “primary” residence in mortgage applications in 2021. Mortgages on primary homes can often receive a lower interest rate or other beneficial terms.

MARK SCHIEFELBEIN AP FEDERAL Reserve Governor Lisa Cook has denied any wrongdoing.

Lowell and Eisen have previously said Cook committed an “inadvertent error” and did refer to one of the properties as a vacation home in other documents.

“An inadvertent error is not fraud, as the President and a third of his Cabinet should know because they reportedly did the same thing,” Lowell and Eisen said in August.

Trump and some of his economic advisors have blamed the Fed's broader rate-setting committee, which includes 12 voting members and 19 officials in total, for forcing the rate hike. As a member of the board of governors, Cook is also one of the 12 voting members of the committee. The vote to lift rates Sept. 16 was unanimous.

The move follows a Supreme Court ruling in June that Cook could keep her job after Trump sought to fire her last year. That ruling included a footnote that said nothing prevented Trump from “trying again” as long as she was given proper notice and an opportunity to respond to the charges.

Cook has denied any wrongdoing and has not been charged with a crime.

Upheaval for the unhoused

Trump administration is shifting dollars away from ‘Housing First’ approach that has been at the heart of federal homelessness policy

BY LAURA UNGAR AND GEOFF MULVIHILL

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Light streamed through stained-glass windows in a former church, illuminating long white tables where weary men gathered. Johnny Henderson was glad for the rest. The 71-year-old — who has one arm, heart disease and vision problems — slept on the street the night before.

Henderson is a regular at the St. John Center men's day shelter. So are a great-grandfather in a wheelchair who has prostate cancer, a 54-year-old with four psychiatric disorders and a 66-year-old with a walker who wears a hospital bracelet warning "fall risk."

All are potential candidates for permanent, government-subsidized apartments under a “Housing First” approach, a model rooted in the belief that people need a stable place to live before addressing other problems. But the approach that’s been central to federal government policy for more than a decade is disappearing under President Trump’s administration. The upheaval, providers and advocates say, threatens the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the nation.

“Housing is healthcare,” said St. John Executive Director Ra'Shann Martin, whose organization provides housing and outreach in addition to the day shelter. “The longer people stay unhoused, the more fragile they become.”

Housing organizations across the U.S. that depend on federal funds are now reluctantly making changes to comply with new government policies that favor a “Treatment First” approach and short-term “transitional” housing — changes they fear will push people with extreme health risks back on the street or keep others, such as Henderson, there.

Planned housing projects have been scrapped in communities such as Corbin, Ky. Less housing is available for homeless people in places such as California's Santa Cruz County. And in cities such as Louisville, nonprofits are looking at making some permanent housing temporary, including most of St. John's 200 apartments.

U.S. homelessness numbers trend up

Across America, nearly 750,000 people were homeless last year, according to an estimate compiled by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. That number is down slightly from 2024 but up 31% from 2019.

The portion considered chronically homeless — having a disability and long-term or repeated episodes of homelessness of at least a year — has also risen since 2019. It's now about a quarter of the total.

Overall, research shows, roughly half of homeless adults live with a disability, up to two-thirds have mental illness and 2 in 5 have substance use disorder. Rates of disability, heart disease and diabetes are two to three times higher than in the general population.

In Louisville, outreach specialist Angel Sivado said such statistics are reflected in the people she serves, whose living conditions make it extremely difficult to care for themselves, get to doctors or keep up with medications.

On a recent day, she parked a St. John van near a fast-food restaurant and hiked into the woods to visit a couple living in a tent. Later, she and a colleague walked toward encampments surrounded by trees just off a highway, yelling "outreach!" over the low roar of cars.

One of their main jobs is to shepherd clients through the process for getting housing.

“They’re not just homeless people; they’re people,” Sivado said. “They’re somebody’s son. They’re somebody’s mother. They’re someone’s daughter.”

Occasionally, Sivado savors a victory. Before heading home, she stopped under a downtown overpass to see James Myers, 66, who is blind, has congestive heart failure and is undergoing treatment for prostate cancer. She told him he should be in an apartment soon.

"I'm tired. I mean, the streets will beat you down, and I think they put a few years on me," he said, standing near his busted guitar. "I can't wait to get off the street."

Others are not so lucky. Henderson, the St. John regular, survived a train accident that cost him an arm and led to a years-long opioid addiction. Recently, he's been dealing with heart disease, an eye problem, spinal surgery and auditory hallucinations.

"I'm going to die sleeping outdoors," he said, choking up. "But I got nowhere to go."

Each person's path to homelessness is unique. Determining the "best" solutions depends on the lens used to judge what's best.

The answer may be different if the goal is reducing overall homelessness, helping people into the job market, spending as little taxpayer money as possible, improving health outcomes — or just keeping people alive.

The Housing First idea was pioneered by a New York nonprofit in the 1990s and has been at the heart of federal homelessness policy since 2013. Today, there are roughly 173,000 “permanent supportive housing” beds for chronically homeless people, and 235,000 for other populations, including veterans. These are long-term apartments paired with voluntary services. Tenants often must contribute 30% of their income, after certain expenses, to rent and utilities.

Studies have consistently shown that Housing First programs keep people stably housed. Some research says they do so better than other models, including “Treatment First,” which favors mandatory services for addiction and serious mental illness. But findings on health outcomes have been mixed.

Last year, Trump signed an executive order calling for an end to federal support for Housing First policies. His proposed budget for fiscal 2027 calls for eliminating the federal initiative that goes mostly to Housing First programs. The administration favors housing lasting up to two years, during which people would be required to get treatment.

“Housing First has failed our most vulnerable and enabled addiction,” HUD said in an email. “HUD’s proposed reforms seek to address the root causes of homelessness and advance recovery, self-sufficiency, and competition that drives accountability.”

Many opponents of Housing First policies don't think services such as addiction and mental health treatment should be optional.

“That is the biggest difference between Housing First and not Housing First,” said Devon Kurtz, the director of public safety policy for the Cicero Institute. Kurtz is also concerned that permanent supportive housing was becoming a “one-size-fits-all approach,” including for populations better served by transitional

housing.

Service providers acknowledge that transitional housing is a good option for some people, such as those getting on their feet after evictions. But they say most chronically homeless people can't pull their lives together within two years and would probably wind up homeless again.

"If you want to gradually work on reducing social services that are funded by the federal government, OK," said Jennifer Clark, chief executive and executive director of St. Vincent de Paul Louisville, which offers permanent and transitional housing. "But you cannot make a huge sweeping change and big cuts and take an ax to everything and think that there aren't going to be consequences for some people who are really in need."

John Franklin, 58, said transitional housing wouldn't work for him. He spent nearly 14 years on the streets dealing with severe alcoholism, and it took a long time to adjust to normal life. He now gets by on disability, as a throat cancer survivor with heart failure, and can't imagine either having to fully pay for housing or surviving the streets.

“I could not make it,” said Franklin, who shares a permanent supportive apartment in suburban Louisville with his orange tabby, Moe. “This is my safe haven.”

Providing homes and other help

The welcome mat outside Phillip Sieveking's permanent supportive apartment says "Home Sweet Home," a sentiment precious to him after a couple of years on the streets.

Sieveking lives at St. John's Sheehan Landing, a complex with 80 furnished one-bedroom apartments and a clinic space, a food pantry, meeting rooms and a community garden that he spends much of his free time tending.

The former chef has diabetes but didn't take care of it while homeless. Doctors had to amputate part of one leg. On a recent morning, he put on his prosthetic, grabbed his crutches and slowly made his way to the garden to check on the roses, sunflowers and vegetables.

He credits his caseworker with encouraging him to keep up with medical care and navigate systems for getting disability and food benefits. He also attends meetings at the complex, including one where residents discuss wellness and sobriety while working on art projects.

“They have helped me, you know, go from being homeless to being a part of society,” said Sieveking, 47. “I feel blessed to be here.”

In New Jersey, Tatiana Velez has been in permanent supportive housing since 2021, soon after connecting with the Camden Coalition, which serves people with complex health and social needs.

After spending 18 years in prison for robbery, she had lived in abandoned buildings and struggled with opioids for a couple of years. Velez had never signed a lease or opened a bank account when, in her late 30s, she learned she was pregnant and decided she was ready to make changes.

“I didn’t know what it was to have a roof over my head or pay the bills,” said Velez, who receives disability payments for psychological and educational disabilities.

She now shares a first-floor suburban apartment with her daughter, 5, and a formerly homeless cat named Snowball. A preschool graduation certificate hangs on the wall.

Policy changes rock communities

After HUD tried to rework its homelessness grants to fit the administration's favored policies, a consortium of local governments and advocates for homeless people sued. A federal judge agreed with them. But this month, an appeals court said the administration could move ahead.

Meanwhile, Trump's proposed budget calls for eliminating the \$4-billion Continuum of Care program, which in 2024 awarded money to 6,500 projects. At that time, more than 60% went to permanent supportive housing, mostly to continue existing efforts. Just 1% went to transitional housing.

Trump's proposed changes have left homelessness organizations scrambling to figure out how to alter their housing strategies so they can keep getting fed-

eral money.

"It's like psychological warfare the last two years, trying to figure out how to navigate these changes that are looming right over us," Martin, the St. John director, said.

Dr. Robert Ratner, director of housing for health in Santa Cruz County, said losing permanent supportive housing funds would exacerbate problems caused by the winding down of another federal program: pandemic-era emergency housing vouchers. People set to lose those vouchers are being prioritized for available housing, meaning the county can't help as many people who are homeless now.

A similar dynamic is playing out at the Delores Project in Denver, which serves women and transgender and nonbinary people. Program leaders expect people already in the permanent housing on their campus will stay because they won't have access to vouchers to move out into the community. That will mean fewer spots for new people.

In Louisiana, the state housing agency applied to redirect federal money away from rental assistance and toward the establishment of a 200-bed shelter with strict mandates for participants. That effort was rejected by local coalitions in charge of the money, but local housing advocates worry it's a harbinger of what's to come.

Some communities are seeing planned projects nixed. For 18 months, Volunteers of America Mid-States worked with Eastern Kentucky University and others on a permanent supportive housing project in Corbin that would have included childcare and access to college classes. "That project is now dead," said CEO Jennifer Hancock.

Many nonprofit leaders feel forced to shift toward transitional housing. In Louisville, St. Vincent de Paul and Family Health Centers-Phoenix Health Care for the Homeless are looking at converting some permanent supportive housing apartments into transitional units. St. John would be left with only Sheehan Landing after converting its 120 community apartments to transitional housing.

The result for people such as Henderson? More time on the streets as they grow older and sicker.

"The lady in the housing office told me, she said, 'Mr. Henderson, you got a stent in your heart. You got one eye and one arm. Something's going to have to happen for you.'

But with “just a little life left,” he said, it may not happen soon enough.

Severe turbulence injures 9 on flight, forcing an emergency landing

By Josh Funk

Nine people were injured when an Avianca flight encountered severe turbulence and had to make an emergency landing in Miami on Friday.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue said that one person was rushed to a trauma center with severe injuries and seven others were taken to area hospitals in ambulances after the plane landed shortly after 3 a.m. Friday. The airline said nine people — three crew members and six passengers — were affected by the turbulence.

The Federal Aviation Administration said the Avianca flight was en route from Medellin, Colombia, to John F. Kennedy International

Airport in New York when the Airbus A320 had to divert to Miami.

Avianca said the unhurt passengers were rebooked on other flights to continue their trip to New York. The airline said “the safety of our customers and employees is, and will remain, the foundation of our operations.”

Serious injuries from in-flight turbulence are rare, but scientists say they may be becoming more common as climate change alters the jet stream. The International Air Transport Assn. said the number of reports it received about turbulence incidents surged more than 25% last year.

Last summer, 24 people were taken to the hospital after a Delta Air Lines flight encountered turbulence caused by a thunderstorm over Wyoming. The National Transportation Safety Board has said passengers and flight attendants were thrown into the ceiling before being tossed back to the floor and then up again. The seat belt sign was off at the time, so some passengers were up and drinks were being served when that plane hit the turbulence.

At least 20 passengers have filed lawsuits against Delta over that incident, arguing the airline could have avoided the severe weather.

The FAA recommends that passengers stay buckled whenever possible to protect against unexpected turbulence.

Funk writes for the Associated Press.

U.S. imposes new sanctions on world tribunal

THE sanctions announced by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, shown Wednesday in Athens, drew rebukes.

[ICC, from A1]

a statement. “It is an assault on the rule of law and on the very foundations of the international legal order which strikes at the simple principle that no one stands above the law.”

The court's president, Tomoko Akane, a citizen of U.S. ally Japan, also defended the court. "This is not just about defending a single institution, but about safeguarding the international order grounded upon the rule of law," she said in a statement.

Stephane Dujarric, a spokesperson for United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, condemned the U.S. sanctions against the ICC, saying the decision dealt a “a serious blow to our collective pursuit for international criminal justice.”

“Accountability for international crimes and delivery of justice to victims are central to our global commitment to peace, security, human rights and fundamental freedoms,” Dujarric said in a statement.

Rubio said U.S. allies should join in the U.S. actions. "If they do not, the United States will continue its campaign to dismantle the ICC, piece by piece, until Americans are threatened no longer," he said.

The initial response from governments allied with the United States was overwhelmingly negative.

"As committed supporters of the ICC we regret and strongly disagree with the announcement of sanctions to be imposed upon the court by the United States," Canada, Denmark, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands and the

United Kingdom said in a joint statement.

“We will continue to work together to support the court's vital work, uphold the rules-based international system, and advance accountability,” the statement said. Seven of the eight signatories are NATO members, and Japan has a separate treaty alliance with the U.S.

Human rights groups also decried the U.S. move and called on countries to

oppose it.

"The ICC was created to ensure that no one, no matter how powerful, is above the law," said Philippe Bolopion, executive director at Human Rights Watch. "Governments that value human rights and accountability should condemn this outrageous move and take swift action to protect the ICC."

“This existential attack must fail,” said Erika Guevara-Rosas, an Amnesty International senior director. “States must take concrete action to resist the imposition of these measures and actively protect the Court.”

The court's host country of the Netherlands has been preparing for weeks for the move. One possible measure to mitigate sanctions is the EU “blocking statute,” which could be used to protect European court staff by preventing European companies from complying with the U.S. measures.

The European Union said it intends to work with the ICC and take “any necessary measures” to ensure it can continue its work. Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten told reporters he was disappointed in the sanctions but happy that “all the diplomatic efforts over the past few months were effective” in ensuring the sanctions are not effective immediately.

A number of countries have withdrawn from the court this year, including Venezuela and Chad. The South Pacific island nation of Naoero was the most recent to announce it would quit.

The United States under successive presidential administrations has been critical of the ICC since its founding.

The Clinton administration signed the Rome Statute under which the tribunal would be created but never submitted the treaty for Senate ratification, citing concerns it could infringe on U.S. sovereignty.

The U.S. “unsigned” the Rome Statute at the beginning of President George W. Bush’s first term in office, but acknowledged the court’s existence after it was created in 2002 by mounting a global push to get members to sign waivers that would exempt U.S. soldiers, officials and others from being referred for ICC prosecution.

During President Obama's tenure, the hostile U.S. policy toward the ICC eased and Washington provided the court's investigators with intelligence and other information to assist in potential prosecutions, notably that of Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony.

During Trump's first term, the U.S. shifted back to an antagonistic approach and imposed sanctions on individual ICC officials, although none as sweeping as Friday's measures.

ShadeLA broadens the region's approach to shade

[Shade, from A1] of Street Lighting.

Stringing up some quick canopies in response to baking heat seems obvious. But De Guzman said that when it comes to shade, the city has historically focused almost exclusively on tree planting. ShadeLA is promoting a shift in strategy to include quick, temporary shade, such as pop-up canopies and tents, plus permanent shade structures, such as bus shelters, that can fill the gaps where trees aren't growing.

“Trees are still our favorite and preferred way of greening because they bring multiple benefits that built infrastructure really cannot,” said De Guzman, a cooperative extension researcher at UCLA. “But we’re also very aware of the fact that in some communities, trees are a nonstarter because there isn’t the space.” Trees also take a long time to grow. Ongoing budget cuts to the city’s urban forestry division plus rapidly intensifying heat waves have advocates looking for other solutions.

Canopies, awnings and other forms of “built shade” can be erected immediately, in theory, and still reduce surface temperatures by tens of degrees.

They don't actively cool the air the way trees do by releasing water vapor, but with the right materials, they block the sunlight from reaching the ground and make a space feel cooler to be in.

They've also been around forever and are part of our shade DNA. In his book "Shade: The Promise of a Forgotten Natural Resource," journalist Sam Bloch writes about the tradition dating to early Roman times of erecting porticos and arcades in Mediterranean cities to cool pedestrians in shopping areas and centers of public life. "When the Spanish first came to L.A. hundreds of years ago, they did some of that too," Bloch said.

But with the advent of air conditioning, cars that kept people off the streets and wide avenues that are harder to sling shade across, we've lost the art. Attempts to reincorporate built shade have included the chronically delayed rollout of bus shelters across Los Angeles and the widely mocked 2023 "La Sombrita" pilot program in which the city's transportation department erected perforated pieces of metal that cast about as much shade as electricity poles.

Today in L.A., the average amount of shade at noon from trees and built structures is only 24%. There's less in neighborhoods with high poverty rates and more people of color.

Human-made shade does pop up in small pockets across the city: umbrellas outside a restaurant, a playground with UV-protective canopies over the swings or a health clinic with awnings over its parking lot.

But navigating permitting across different jurisdictions and agencies is complicated, and there's no

A BICYCLIST walks past the Hoover Recreation Center's shaded playground.

one, streamlined way to make it happen in public spaces. "There's a standard process for planting trees across Los Angeles, but we don't have that road map for built shade," said Michelle Barton, ShadeLA's other co-lead and the climate and sustainability director at USC Dornsife Public Exchange.

To that end, the group is pushing for policy changes and working on other small pilots to help the city deploy shade quickly ahead of the 2028 Olympics. Last year, it held a student design competition with Los Angeles Metro that resulted in a temporary shade structure outside the Downtown Inglewood station. During the World Cup, it erected a big pop-up tent at Harvard Park in South L.A. that city parks staff has since used elsewhere. It's now seeking to build a lending library of such tents.

Bloch said the pilot in Exposition Park last weekend was “proof of concept” for an idea discussed under Mayor Eric Garcetti’s tenure but never brought to life.

“They’re not as effective at cooling, but those shade sails are nimble in a way that trees never will be,” Bloch said. “If the city knows it’s going to be hot, string them up for the week and then take them down.... It should be an attractive option for places trying to quickly shade themselves.”

Congregants return to one of America's oldest Black churches

Reconstruction of 1776 building unites Virginia community.

BY NANCY JIANG

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — The reconstruction of one of the nation's oldest Black churches, where congregants gathered in secret before building a meeting house in Virginia, was celebrated Friday.

Hundreds of residents gathered for a community-wide rededication of the original First Baptist Church of Williamsburg, which was established in 1776 by enslaved and free African Americans in defiance of laws that prevented them from congregating.

In 1805, its original parishioners built the church house, known as the African Baptist Meeting House, with recycled bricks and materials they scrounged. A tornado in 1834 destroyed the church, which was rebuilt in 1856 before it was turned into a parking lot a century later by the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, a living history museum, be cause it didn't match the 18th century aesthetic of the town at the time.

Since then, the 16-foot-by-32-foot church has been reconstructed, after archaeologists in 2021 uncovered the church's original foundation, as well as 62 graves linked to the congregation.

“What this day means and shows is that Black history is American history, and we’re an example for the rest of the nation,” Reginald F. Davis, pastor of First Baptist, told the Associated Press on Friday.

"A church that has a history that was during the signing of the Declaration of Independence, you cannot erase us out of American history because we have been at the outset and formulation of the nation," said Davis, who leads the current 215-member congregation in a 20th century church on Scotland Street, less than a mile from the original site.

For decades, Colonial Williamsburg didn't tell the story of the church's history as a pioneer of Black American faith traditions. More than half of the 2,000 people who lived in Williamsburg in the 18th century were Black, with few of them free. But in recent years, the museum has resuscitated the church's traditions, starting with Friday's celebration of the building's 250th anniversary.

“I wanted them to know that we were always here, where when the doors of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation first opened, the restoration, and even before then, we were sometimes present, but not able to speak,” said Janice Canaday, community engagement manager at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation.

“This is a reclamation, a reclaiming of the narrative,” she said.

From past to present

On Friday, the event began with a procession symbolizing the ways the historic congregation has continued a multigenerational fight for education, faith and freedom.

The mood was set with a performance by the Nassau Street Remembrance Choir, before an invocation from Davis and speeches from Virginia state Sen. Mamie Locke and James Ingram, a museum interpreter who has for 26 years portrayed Gowan Pamphlet, First Baptist's pastor when the original church structure was built.

Ingram told AP last year that Pamphlet was “a precursor to someone like Frederick Douglass, who would be the precursor to someone like Martin Luther King Jr.”

Pamphlet, an enslaved tavern worker, preached about equality in the face of laws that prohibited large gatherings of African Americans out of fear of slave up-risings. Ingram handed the mantle off to the new Pamphlet interpreter, Brandon Lee, who debuted at the dedication.

'We were just so elated'

In addition to discovering the original church's foundation, archaeologists uncovered the graves of 62 community members. DNA tests and bone analyses for three sets of remains linked them back to the African Baptist Meeting House congregation.

But it was oral tradition that served as the first hint in the discovery, where stories of ancestors buried in the area led to a search.

“We knew the building was here, and we knew that there were maybe burials behind it,” said Jennifer Wilkoski, director of architectural preservation and research at Colonial Williamsburg.

When the church's original structure was discovered in 2021, Davis called it “a rediscovery of the humanity of a people.”

“We were just so elated that those people who had been buried and forgotten, have now been unearthed and given the recognition as human beings, as they should have been,” he said. “It’s a wonderful time to shed light on our history in light of the erasure of so many things within our history.”

Construction is nearly finished

The meeting house reconstruction, built at its original site, honors its original character. Archaeologists and Colonial Williamsburg's construction team modeled the new church out of pine and white oak woods, and re-created details like the original half-round brick steps.

Wilkoski said the materials for the original church demonstrated the resourcefulness of the congregants, who probably included carpenters with the skills necessary to build the church.

Modern renovations include an HVAC system for Virginia's hot summers, a refreshed altar table for sermons, shutters and handblown glass windows. Last year, Colonial Williamsburg considered glassless windows but has since had to reconsider to build the cooling HVAC system.

"It's not church stained glass, but we call it restoration glass, handmade like they would've had in the 18th and early 19th century," Wilkoski said.

Finishing touches on the church will wrap in the next few months and will include an ADA-accessible ramp.

Davis said the meeting house structure is overdue recognition for “those of us who are still working to make America a more perfect union.”

Fox News reporter leads fight for press freedom

JACQUI HEINRICH, 37, is leading the fight against President Trump's ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico.
Fox News

Jacqui Heinrich, who's been attacked by Trump, goes to bat for her network's rivals.

BY STEPHEN BATTAGLIO

Even Fox News, one of President Trump's preferred media outlets, isn't exempt from his go-to term for any woman he dislikes.

“She can be so nasty,” was how Trump recently described the conservative-leaning network’s senior White House correspondent, Jacqui Heinrich.

Never one to hold back, the president has also had harsh words for her spouse, Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, a moderate Republican congressman. "Her husband votes against me all the time," Trump once said. "Can you imagine?"

The double-barreled attacks don't bother Heinrich, who as president of the White House Correspondents Assn. is leading the fight against Trump's ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico. When Trump delivered his insult at the WHCA's dinner in July, Heinrich just shrugged and smiled.

"You don't get into journalism to be well liked by the subject that you're covering," Heinrich said in a recent phone interview. "As long as I'm doing my job, which is to get the story and tell it fairly and fully, the rest of it is not really my business to care about. It's probably not the last time I'll upset him. The president still takes my calls."

Heinrich's durability is being put to the test as she delivers the public and private messaging on the latest battle with the White House over press freedom. Trump banned the three outlets from the White House grounds because of what he believes is their constant negative coverage.

A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order to block the move, calling it viewpoint discrimination and a violation of the outlets' 1st Amendment rights. But the administration continues to prevent CNN from serving in the press pool that follows the president at all times. More court hearings are ahead.

Over the last 10 days, Heinrich has issued public statements condemning the ban, monitored the legal proceedings and held back channel conversations with the White House in an effort to get Trump's decision reversed. It's a second job on top of covering the president and co-hosting a weekend program "The Sunday Briefing."

Executives and journalists say privately that it's helpful to have someone from a Trump-friendly outlet lead the organization to restore the press credentials of outlets the president views as hostile. The WHCA exists to maintain and facilitate access to the White House for its 900 members across 300 news organizations.

But for Heinrich, it's logical that 1st Amendment arguments transcend any political leanings of any media outlet. If Trump's ban stands, conservative news organizations could find themselves facing similar restrictions the next time a Democrat is in the Oval Office.

"When you empower the president to select who is allowed to ask them questions, it shrinks the room," Heinrich said. "It shrinks the perspective and it hands over that same authority to the next administration, who will surround themselves with only voices that approve of or are supportive or friendly toward what they're doing."

Eugene Daniels, a co-host at the progressive-leaning MS NOW and a former White House Correspondents Assn. president, said the organization's members from Fox News and the further right-leaning Newsmax were always supportive of 1st Amendment and press access issues during his tenure.

"A lot of our news organizations understand intrinsically that at some point the shoe could be on the other foot," Daniels said. "The solidarity matters."

Daniels has also known Heinrich since the two worked together years ago at a TV station in Colorado

Springs, Colo., and believes she is well-equipped to push the WHCA's cause.

“She’s clear-eyed about the role of White House correspondents in covering any president,” he said. “She is very tough and always has been since we’ve met. She stands 10 toes down when it comes to what’s right.”

Heinrich's respect for journalistic principles has even extended to her personal life. When Fitzpatrick first asked her out on a date five years ago, he had to wait several weeks for an answer. Heinrich checked with her Fox News bosses to see if dating an elected official was a conflict even though she was no longer assigned to covering congress.

"He was very patient," Heinrich said. The couple were married at New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral in June.

Heinrich is among the correspondents at Fox News — which this week will mark 30 years on the air — whose reporting doesn't adhere to the leanings of its opinion hosts and commentators.

In 2020, Heinrich reported on Trump's false claims of voter fraud in the election he lost to Joe Biden, while commentators, hosts and guests on the network continued to raise doubts about the results. Her reporting angered hosts such as Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity, who were concerned that her work was alienating viewers loyal to the president.

Netflix plans to cut 5% of its workforce, sources say

earlier, even as content spending climbed.

BY WENDY LEE

Netflix plans a substantial round of layoffs as the streaming giant faces rising competition and pressure to retain its subscribers, according to people familiar with the job cuts.

The cuts are expected to affect $5\%$ of the company's workforce, which could be 800 employees, according to one of the sources who was not authorized to comment. The job losses will affect the creative team including those working on features, the source said.

Netflix declined to comment. The planned cuts are believed to be the biggest at the Los Gatos company since 2022. The news was first reported by news outlet Puck.

Netflix has been under scrutiny from investors over how much time its subscribers spend on the streaming service. View hours rose only about 2% in the first half of 2026 compared with a year

“Overall we’re not growing as fast as I want us to, and we’re working on making that move faster,” said Netflix co-Chief Executive Ted Sarandos at the Bloomberg Screentime event last week.

Carlson called on Fox News Media Chief Executive Suzanne Scott to fire Heinrich in a text that came to light three years later when Dominion Voting System filed its defamation suit against the network. Dominion claimed Fox News deliberately aired false statements about the company's role in the 2020 election, settling the suit for \$787 million.

Netflix has noted how engagement can be measured in different ways. For example, its investment in live programming helps spur significant subscription sign-ups, even though it represents a small percentage of watch time on the streaming service, the company has said.

But some investors remain skeptical about the company's future growth. Rival YouTube remains the leader in streaming viewing hours in the U.S. on TVs, representing 14.2% versus Netflix's 7.8% in July, according to Nielsen. Netflix stock has also declined 43% compared to a year ago. On Friday, the stock closed at \$70.30, down about 2%.

Netflix last conducted major layoffs in 2022 after the streamer reported subscriber losses for the first time in more than a decade. In May that year, the company laid off 150 workers and dozens of contractors and part-time workers in areas including its social media teams. The following month, it laid off 300 people or roughly 3% of its staff.

In August, Netflix made changes to its gaming division by closing its Hollywood-based gaming studio Night School and said it was in the process of closing its Helsinki-based gaming studio Moonloot.

Mattel building water parks to counter slow Barbie sales

BRIAN VAN DER BRUG Los Angeles Times
THE SUMMER of “Barbenheimer” in 2023 helped revitalize excitement around Mattel’s Barbie line.

BY ELLA CHAKARIAN

With Barbie sales slipping, Mattel is looking to its characters and games to build a new revenue stream: water parks.

The El Segundo company has been trying to find more ways to turn its roster of beloved toys into bigger moneymakers. Former Chief Executive Ynon Kreiz, who spearheaded a campaign to upgrade earnings from Mattel's intellectual properties, just stepped down amid investor disappointment.

As Roger Lynch, the former CEO of Condé Nast, takes over as Mattel's chief, he inherits a struggling strategy to turn Mattel's portfolio of toys and games into entertainment franchises and experiences that generate revenue away from the toy aisles.

One of the latest bets to reduce dependence on Barbie is Mattel's first Wonder Indoor Waterpark, which is slated to open at the end of 2027 in Bellevue, Neb.

The park is expected to cover roughly 100,000 square feet and have a retractable roof for year-round operation. Construction is underway in a mixed-use area designed to boost tourism in Omaha's southern suburbs.

Some planned attractions include a Barbie activity pool and a Hot Wheels slide tower.

It will also feature a lazy river that floats past scenery inspired by Mattel Games, including UNO, Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots and Magic

8 Ball.

A Mattel spokesperson said the company is exploring opportunities to bring such interactive experiences “beyond traditional destination markets.”

Outside Nebraska, the company is planning water parks in Florida, Illinois and North Carolina.

"We see a real opportunity to take the kind of immersive entertainment traditionally concentrated in ma-"

jor markets and bring it to more communities in a scalable, year-round format," Natalia Premovic, Mattel's chief consumer products and experiences officer, said in a news release.

Mattel's other park ambitions have had rocky starts.

In Arizona, the original developer for the first Mattel Adventure Park exited the project and a neighboring resort took over.

In Kansas, a theme park was originally slated to debut in 2026 but received a formal operating deadline extension to May 2031.

The toy company is trying different things in hopes of repeating the huge success of the 2023 “Barbie” film.

The movie that was the fun half of the “Barbenheimer” summer took in close to \$1.5 billion at the box office and revitalized excitement around the 60-something Barbie, sparking more than \$150 million in sales from dolls and other related products.

This year, the company hoped for another revenue rush from a movie tied to its buff action figures, "Masters of the Universe."

The movie failed to dominate the summer like "Barbie." It generated less than \$120 million worldwide despite a production budget of about \$170 million.

In the second quarter, Mattel reported a net loss of \$18 million, compared with net income of \$53.4 million a year earlier, even as sales rose. Net sales were up 10%, but toy performance was mixed.

Dolls billings dipped 5%, with Barbie gross billings falling 16%. Infant, toddler and preschool billings dropped 11% on lower Fisher-Price demand.

Hot Wheels, games and action figures sales grew.

Kreiz's departure came as investors grew increasingly impatient with the company's strategy and wider performance.

Mattel shares had fallen more than 35% this year on concerns about how it planned to drive growth, before rebounding more than 30% recently amid reports of a potential takeover bid.

The stock price climbed around 1% Friday to trade near \$17.

But Heinrich said she was unaware of the conversations before they were revealed in a legal brief in February 2023. (Carlson was fired from Fox News two months later.) She has been promoted four times since 2020.

"My bosses never interfered with my reporting," she said.

Heinrich, 37, studied international affairs at George Washington University and wanted to pursue a career in the State Department before internships at MSNBC and WRC-TV in Washington led her to journalism. After working at several local TV stations, she became a Fox News correspondent in New York in 2018. She covered Congress and the 2020 presidential campaign before moving to the White House beat in 2021.

Heinrich was raised in New England in what she describes as a politically diverse family. Her parents divorced when she was young, and she split her time between a conservative father in New Hampshire, a politically moderate mother in Maine and a Bernie Sanders-supporting stepfather from Vermont. She believes her upbringing was excellent training for her profession.

“It was ‘Live Free or Die’ and socialism all under two roofs but one family,” she said. “We have developed a really keen ability to listen. I think that’s one of the most important parts of journalism, is hearing and understanding someone’s perspective enough that you can describe it to someone else in a way that is fair and complete.”

Once Heinrich gets past the current conflict with the White House, she'll have to plan the association's annual dinner. (The event was cut short and rescheduled this year after a gunman attempted to enter the ballroom at the Washington Hilton.)

Heinrich said that even with the president's open hostility toward the press, he will be welcomed to the event in 2027.

“We have invited the president every single year for the last 115 years and that's not going to change just because of President Trump,” Heinrich said. “We uphold laws, norms, and traditions around here and we intend to keep it that way.”

Seeing AI race in flux, Wall Street bets on chips

A MASCOT for Muse, Meta's fast-growing AI agent, is displayed with Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg.

BY RYAN VLASTELICA

Wall Street pros say chip-makers remain the best way for equity investors to play the race for the top artificial intelligence agent even as Meta Platforms Inc.'s Muse seems to have seized the baton.

“Leadership is almost like a game of hot potato,” said Paisley Nardini, who helps oversee \$3.8 billion as head of investment strategy at Tema ETFs, which owns Meta shares. “I’m already hearing people joke about how we’ll forget about Muse for something else in a couple weeks.”

AI agents handle multi-step tasks such as making reservations or managing finances. Their popularity has created waves in the market as investors weigh which products are likely to emerge as favorites for businesses and consumers — while also assessing the disruptive effects they could have on traditional business models.

Amid those questions, however, what's become clear is that these new agents require more computing power than the previous generation of AI tools, which largely took the form of chatbots. That means there should be continuing demand for the shares of chipmakers and other areas of the AI infrastructure landscape, which have been the favored ways to position for the emerging technology since ChatGPT debuted nearly four years ago.

“Rather than trying to play which company will wind up with the best agent, we want to own the foundation for agents overall, the stocks that will work regardless of which company is in the lead,” said Rick Lear, chief investment officer at Lear Investment Management, whose concentrated portfolio focuses on names it expects to benefit from the rise of agents, such as Nvidia Corp., Micron Technology Inc. and power company Williams Companies.

“Tech leadership keeps going back and forth, but if agents take off overall, we will need a lot more chips, more memory, more power, more infrastructure,” he said. “That will be true universally, regardless of whether we go from Meta being the best to stinking again.”

AI infrastructure stocks have largely driven the market this year. Of the top 10 gainers in the Standard & Poor's 500 index, nine have exposure to the theme. Chipmakers have been particularly strong, with the Philadelphia Stock Exchange Semiconductor Index jumping 81%, fueled by AI plays like Micron, Marvell Technology Inc., Intel Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc.

The chip index was down as much as 2% shortly after the open on Thursday.

Meta debuted its Muse personal AI assistant last month and quickly garnered huge download numbers and rave reviews. That contributed to a scorching September for Facebook's parent, with the stock's 27% gain representing its best month in nearly four years. OpenAI followed with its own new product, Dots, joining Alphabet Inc.'s Gemini Spark and SpaceXAI's Grok Bot in the AI agent market.

Muse's popularity shows how quickly AI sentiment can change, with momentum often shifting to the latest or buzziest product. While Meta's riding high now, it struggled in the first half of the year due to the perception that it was spending tens of billions of dollars on AI with little to show for it. Meanwhile, Alphabet has gone from being considered the AI leader earlier in the year to coming under scrutiny more recently.

That kind of whipsaw is why so many investors see AI infrastructure stocks as more reliable wagers than the companies in the agent race.

"If you're trying to bet on whether Meta, Alphabet, Apple or someone else will be the biggest winner of AI agents, right now that looks like a coin flip," Tema ETFs' Nardini said. "Infrastructure is a more straightforward way to reap the benefits, because demand for agents will drive demand for these products over a long-term time horizon."

This is swiftly becoming a consensus view, prompting analysts to raise their expectations for AI infrastructure earnings. The sector is expected to post net income growth of 63% in 2027 on a 54% leap in revenue, according to Bloomberg Intelligence. At the end of July, the projection was for an increase of less than 48% in profits on a 32% rise in revenue.

Estimates for 2028 have been moving higher as well, a sign that Wall Street expects the trend to be durable over several years.

Constantly evolving agents are a key part of that thesis. Different kinds of semiconductors—including processors, memory and networking chips—could also get a boost from their development, according to Citigroup Inc. analyst Atif Malik. He estimates the total addressable market for CPU chips will grow at a 60% compound annual rate through 2030, according to an Oct. 6 research note.

“That’s why the infrastructure approach makes a lot of sense,” Nardini said. “Meta won’t hold the torch forever. Leadership will change in six months. What won’t change is the demand for chips.”

Delta lowers profit outlook, citing high fuel prices amid war

By Sri Taylor

Delta Air Lines Inc. reduced its full-year earnings outlook as high jet fuel prices stemming from the war in the Middle East continue roiling U.S. airlines, even as strong travel demand helps the carrier offset some of the added costs.

The Atlanta-based airline said Friday that it expects adjusted earnings of \$5.10 to \$5.60 per share in 2026, well below the \$6.50 to \$7.50 range it reaffirmed in July. Delta said it expects to absorb \$6 billion in additional fuel costs this year compared with 2025.

"I wouldn't call that a surprise to anyone, it's all because of higher fuel prices," Chief Executive Officer Ed Bastian said of the new range. "If this continues to go higher for longer — which I think it will — as the premium airline in the industry we have the best ability to be able to price for that."

Shares fell in premarket trading in New York. As the first major U.S. carrier to report quarterly results, investors see Delta as a bellwether for the industry at a time of rising costs and questions about how long demand will remain strong in the face of rising ticket prices entering the crucial holiday travel season.

Delta reported adjusted third-quarter earnings of \$1.72 per share, lower than the \$1.82 expected on average among analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Adjusted revenue rose about 16% from a year earlier to \$17.6 billion, roughly in line with expectations.

The carrier said adjusted fuel expenses jumped 62% to \$4.1 billion year-over-year, including more than \$500 million in additional costs compared with its July forecast.

“We continue to see very strong demand, and we see that being sustained in the fourth quarter and the start of next year," Bastian said.

He also didn't see travel demand tapering off even as airfares are expected to climb.

“Air travel, even with a higher price point, is still a relative bargain in the consumer economy,” he said. “Airfares are still 10 points lower than inflation.”

The carrier reported adjusted pretax income of \$1.5 billion, basically flat from a year earlier, as higher ticket prices and growing premium revenue helped cushion the affect of fuel costs.

Premium revenue increased 18%, while revenue from its long-standing partnership with American Express Co., the exclusive issuer of Delta's co-branded credit card, rose 15%.

For the fourth quarter, Delta forecast adjusted earnings of \$1.15 to \$1.65 per share and revenue growth of about 20% from a year earlier.

The carrier expects an operating margin of 7% to

9% and an all-in fuel price of approximately \$4.25 per gallon, signaling that elevated energy costs will remain a drag on earnings through year's end.

Delta has increasingly leaned on higher-paying customers and its lucrative loyalty program to drive revenue. It recently expanded its network of exclusive Delta One lounges, further segmented its business-class cabins and deepened partnerships tied to its SkyMiles program.

Revenue outside of traditional main cabin ticket sales, including premium seating, loyalty and other businesses, accounted for 61% of adjusted revenue in the quarter.

Faster in-flight Wi-Fi is one of the ways Delta and rival carriers are trying to lure premium travelers.

Delta recently found itself in the middle of a public spat with Elon Musk after the carrier selected Amazon.com Inc.'s Leo satellite internet service instead of SpaceX's Starlink. Bastian said in May that Amazon's product offered better bandwidth at a significantly lower price than Starlink.

Musk has repeatedly criticized Bastian, saying last week the Delta executive “will lose his job over this” after an account on X circulated unverified comments attributed to Bastian.

“I’m very confident that we’re doing just fine here on Wi-Fi, and I’m not going to take any bait there, as much I’d like to,” Bastian said. “Starlink is a great product, we know it well.”

Delta's main competitors — United Airlines Holdings Inc., American Airlines Group Inc. and Southwest Airlines Co. — are embracing Starlink, with American announcing plans to expand the service to its entire mainline fleet of more than 1,000 aircraft.

Strawberry farmers revisit steam as alternative to chemicals

BY HAVEN DALEY

Longtime strawberry farmer Rod Koda has rows of plants on his California farm that are still producing fruit well after the harvest would typically end.

The fields brimming with green near the Pacific Coast have produced nearly twice the amount of organic strawberries this year as other plots thanks to steam, he said. The bountiful plots were treated with steam before Koda planted his organic strawberries as part of a project aimed at finding an alternative to chemical fumigants used to kill soil-borne diseases and weeds.

"It's a very noticeable difference," Koda said.

Steam has been used for decades in greenhouses, and researchers in California have been working to adapt the technology to the fields where strawberries, one of the state's key crops, are grown near the Pacific Coast. It's part of a broader push to help organic farmers become more productive and reduce the use of chemicals that environmental advocates say pose a health risk to farmworkers and those who live near the fields.

Rick Tomlinson, president of the California Strawberry Commission, said researchers are tinkering with the technology so it can be applied faster. The industry has been working on other alternatives, including cutting off oxygen to kill soil disease and developing more resistant plants, he said.

“Fundamentally, there's this disease in the soil and if you don't have some solution, you're just rolling the dice and one of the years you're going to end up bankrupt,” Tomlinson said, “because it can wipe out the entire field."

Nine out of 10 strawberries grown in the U.S. come from California.

Strawberry growers have long relied on chemical fumigants because the fruit is grown close to the ground and is soft and fleshy, making it susceptible to disease, farm experts said. Using a machine to inject steam into the soil before planting can kill key soil-borne diseases and weeds and improve crop productivity, said Jenny Broome, a UC Santa Cruz researcher working on the project.

Four growers in California participated in the trials last fall, Broome said. On Koda's farm, the steam-treated plots produced more berries and saw less damage from fusarium wilt, a fungal disease, she said.

Steam might also work on fields used for other high-yield crops, she said. A challenge is making steam cost-effective for farmers, and proponents of the technology are trying to speed up the machines used in the process.

The stock market finished its record-setting week with gains on Friday, even as other financial markets remained indecisive.

The Standard & Poor's 500 index climbed $0.6\%$ for its first gain since setting its all-time high three days earlier. The Dow Jones industrial average added 423 points, or $0.8\%$ , and the Nasdaq composite rose $0.6\%$ .

The strength came as oil prices continued to vacillate because of uncertainty about when the war with Iran will allow the global energy industry to return to normal. The price for a barrel of Brent crude bounced between \$102.50 and \$105 before settling at \$104.72, up 0.4%.

Treasury yields flipped up and down in the bond market following their own sharp moves earlier in the week. The yield on the 10-year Treasury eventually climbed to 5.24% from 5.22% late Thursday.

Tesla changes branding in Europe

The automaker is using ‘Tesla Assisted Driving’ for its system on European websites.

By Richard Clough

Tesla Inc. is backing away from its Full Self-Driving branding to help secure approval for the driver-assistance system in Europe, distancing the company from a name that has drawn criticism as dangerously misleading.

The automaker has begun using the name “Tesla Assisted Driving” on its European websites in recent days.

The U.S. version of the same site is continuing to use “Full Self-Driving (Supervised)” for the technology.

Tesla's driver-assistance branding has long been a point of contention with regulators, safety advocates and some Tesla customers, who say the name gives the impression of full autonomy even though drivers must still be alert and ready to take control of their vehicles.

Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk has also been criticized for making overly aggressive or unfounded claims about Tesla vehicles' capabilities.

Last year, the California Department of Motor Vehicles threatened to suspend Tesla's sales in the state over allegedly misleading marketing of driver-assistance technology.

Authorities backed down after the company took “corrective action,” including phasing out its Autopilot branding and specifying when Full Self-Driving — also known as FSD — must have driver supervision.

FSD is a significant financial driver for Tesla's automotive business, which typically charges drivers \$99 a month for the system. It's also key to Musk's efforts to refashion the carmaker as a tech-forward company pioneering autonomous vehicles and robotics.

Tesla is now seeking to bring the FSD system to Europe, which has been slow to embrace the technology.

When Dutch regulators in April approved FSD, they emphasized that it was a more restrictive version than what is used in the U.S. and said in a statement that “a vehicle with FSD Supervised is not self-driving.”

The company continues to seek approval in other countries across the continent.

Food scrap firms aim to enrich soils, themselves

FOOD waste collectors like Scrap Soils help divert edibles from landfills and cut down on methane production.
JOSHUA A. BICKEL Associated Press

By Alexa St. John

Every Monday, Ricky Blanding drives his Ford Ranger pickup truck around Detroit along a carefully planned route.

Blanding hops in and out of the truck, grabbing buckets of food scraps from porches and restaurants, piling those scraps into bins in the truck bed and driving them to a composting site.

Blanding is the CEO of Scrap Soils, one of the many budding food waste collection services across the country helping to divert food from landfills and make composting more accessible. It's especially important for those who can't compost at home, who live in cities without municipal curbside pickup or who can't get to a drop-off location.

Composting leftover coffee grounds, eggshells, carrot tops and more reduces the amount of food that goes into dumps where it produces the potent greenhouse gas methane. It also ultimately helps create healthy soil for gardeners and urban farmers.

Experts say companies like Scrap Soils are an important part of cleaning up the broader food ecosystem. Emily Cassidy, research associate at climate solutions nonprofit Project Drawdown, said composting offers the dual benefits of reducing landfill methane emissions and, once the composting process is complete, returning nutrients to soil.

“Because methane has such a big impact on the climate in a short amount of time, the more we can reduce methane, it is like pulling the emergency brake on climate change,” Cassidy said.

Beyond mitigating climate change, composting can also improve local food production, she said.

“That’s a way that we can see that we’re benefiting the environment, because we're taking food and then replenishing the ground with those nutrients," she said.

Homes, restaurants take part in Detroit

Blanding, a 34-year-old native Detroiter, co-launched Scrap Soils in 2020 to play a local part in solving a statewide food waste problem that mirrors what's happening around the globe. Food waste is a huge source of methane in Michigan landfills, estimates say, and accounts for millions of metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions in the state.

In Detroit, more than 70 homes and businesses are signed up for Scrap Soils' weekly pickups. It's an easier way to compost than making space in one's backyard or driving to a city drop-off site. Home pickups start at \$15 per month, while businesses pay \$60 per month or more, depending on volume.

One of those commercial customers is the Grand Porter restaurant in the Southwest neighborhood of Detroit.

“We go through a lot of eggs, so mostly egg scraps, eggshells and the cardboard. We put all of our bread scraps, stale bread scraps, in here,” said Lou Hammer, the restaurant’s executive chef, pointing to a large bin with bags of food waste inside. “Some tomato tops, some avocado skins. Probably a few other things in there too.”

"It doesn't take any extra effort," she said of the pickup service. "This was going to go in a bag anyway. It's just going to go in a green bag instead."

Scraps converted to rich soil additive

After completing his nine-hour, more than 100-mile weekly route, Blanding drops off the waste at Scrap Soils' partner, Sanctuary

Farms in Detroit. There, apple cores, rotted pumpkins, corn husks and other scraps are composted into a rich soil additive that's available for purchase.

“Food waste has not only become the problem,” Blanding said, “but it’s also the solution to so many issues in climate change.”

The company ultimately plans to purchase a larger truck, as well as its own property and equipment for composting. It's fundraising to meet a matching grant through the state.

That hasn't been without challenges. As Blanding seeks to grow, he's come up against skepticism that a small team with limited resources can make a big impact. Companies like Scrap Soils also face challenges including gaining visibility and getting people to actually sign up and commit.

At the same time, emphasizing what can and cannot be composted, and how to do it correctly — such as removing produce stickers before putting a peel in the bucket — is key to its success too.

"The role of a hauler is very important, and education around composting is also very important," Blanding said.

“Being able to continue to get more engagement and more partnership, those things go far in helping us to expand this tiny effort into something that actually can scale,” he added.

City initiatives grow with demand

Despite hurdles, other independent composting programs and companies are expanding. Examples include the Denver Compost Collective, Nashville's Compost Co. and Compost Now, which operates in Atlanta and the North Carolina cities of Raleigh, Durham and Asheville.

Hundreds of municipal governments oversee food waste pickup or drop-off programs to allow for composting, though a much smaller number than the thousands of ordinary waste programs nationwide, indicating room to grow. A 2023 report by BioCycle, a publication on composting and recycling, identified 400 municipally supported residential food waste collection programs in the country, 230 of which offered curbside pickup.

For many U.S. cities, compost will play a key role in broader climate plans, incentivizing more of them to start investing in it.

Detroit's climate strategy, for instance, calls for eliminating its municipal greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Along with accelerating energy efficiency in homes and buildings, and increasing cleaner mobility, one of its strategies to get there is a three-year plan to divert $15\%$ of waste from landfills.

Detroit started its first municipal food scrap drop-off initiative this past year with a single central site. Hundreds of residents registered to participate, filled buckets at home and dropped them off at the city's site. Scrap Soils was a partner in the city's educational campaign.

The city plans to expand its efforts by offering drop-off bins in more locations as well as on-site municipal building composting.

“Composting, recycling, those are really easy entryways into sustainability for people, one step that you can do as an individual to support the city's sustainability goals and goals for our planet,” said Tepfirah Rushdan, Detroit's director of sustainability. “As we make this transition to different ways of doing all of our systems, including our waste streams, it's exciting to see people participating.”

Voices ALISON MURPHY GUEST CONTRIBUTOR Why we shouldn't expect survivors to report rape

At every stage, there are opportunities for people and systems to fail you. Just look at Cornell's Jane Doe.

A T THE RAPE crisis center where I was trained in Chicago, we didn't refer to the criminal justice system. We called it the criminal legal system: because justice, while aspirational, is rarely achieved. As an emergency room advocate, I was taught never to pressure survivors to report to the police, but simply to outline their options and support whatever choice they made.

The Cornell case is a prime example of why we took that approach. We knew exactly how much the reporting process asks of survivors, and how few actually receive justice at the end of it.

The details of the Cornell case are devastatingly familiar: a college student, unable to consent, assaulted by fraternity members. Failed by the police, who treated normal aspects of trauma as evidence of unreliability, and therefore left out key parts of her testimony. Failed by the district attorney, who declined to review additional evidence. Failed by her university, who allowed many of the men who assaulted her back on campus.

Thanks to relentless reporting of Cornell students and the resulting public pressure, Jane Doe's case has now been reopened. But the burden of proof this survivor will face in New York — a state that requires a survivor prove they were physically helpless (in other words, unconscious) for the entirety of an assault — will still make a conviction extraordinarily difficult.

Neither this case, nor the many systemic failures it involves, is extraordinary. Research suggests that in many reported sexual assault cases, police neglect to do the bare minimum of investigating. According to RAINN, police decline to investigate key evidence like texts and emails in about 80% of sexual assault cases between people who know each other, which accounts for the vast majority of sexual assaults.

In the case of the Jane Doe from Cornell, this evidence — which police appear to have failed to request or pass along to the D.A. — included a screenshot of a group text during which her semi-conscious body was offered up like free pizza, and a text from one of her alleged rapists the next morning, apologizing vaguely for “how things went down.” Perhaps as a result of this institutional neglect, 4 out of 5 perpetrators are never charged, and of the 80% of cases where sexual assault is categorized as founded — in other words, as likely to have happened — only 8% of them result in conviction.

Is it any wonder, given these sadly familiar facts, that people are reluctant to report? We can hardly expect any different, especially given the enormous personal costs they are asked to undergo in order to do so.

For those fortunate enough to have never been through the process, here is what one can generally expect when reporting a sexual assault. If you go to the emergency room, you will be offered a sexual assault forensic exam (colloquially known as a "rape kit"), during which you will be asked to undress, giving your clothes up as evidence, have photos taken of your naked body, have your hair combed and your nails scraped for DNA evidence, and have Q-tips inserted in your anus, mouth, vagina and/or genitals. You will be asked detailed and invasive questions from first a nurse — who, if you live in a state that requires the use of Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners, will at least be trained in how to ask them sensitively — and a police officer, who likely will not.

Rick Bowmer Associated Press
REPORTING RAPE is like taking on a part-time, unpaid job of proving one's own innocence.

You will have to answer those questions again and again if your case progresses. You will be asked to recall minor details surrounding the incident with an accuracy that most of us don't have about a normal Tuesday, much less the most traumatic day of our lives. You will be asked about your relationship status, your sexual history, your substance habits. If your case goes to trial, you will have to answer all of these questions again in front of an audience, from both the D.A., who is on your side, and the defense attorney, whose job it is to make the jury doubt your testimony, with the side effect that you sometimes end up doubting your own reality.

This process may last years, during which time you will be asked to put your life on hold to make room for interviews, hearings and trial dates, the schedules

LETTERS of which are constantly shifting according to everyone's calendar but yours.

At every stage of this process, there are opportunities for people or systems to fail you, and the statistical likelihood is that one of them will. At the end of it, if you are part of the 8%, this process may result in conviction, and the person who assaulted you may receive punishment in the form of a prison sentence. Or he may be given six months and a slap on the wrist, because he had a promising future.

I say all this not to discourage people from reporting, but to outline the costs of what we ask of survivors when we demand that they report. Because sexual assault is not like other crimes. Victims of armed robberies are not typically asked to prove their own innocence. And when we expect and even demand that victims report, we are asking them to do just that: to take on a part-time, unpaid job of proving their innocence in a crime that happened to them.

If we are going to continue to ask victims to take on the burden of reporting, then we owe it to them to provide the bare minimum of support: mandating the right to SANE nurses and hospital and legal advocates in every state, training police forces — including campus police — in trauma-informed questioning, funding services that victims need to survive the harrowing aftermath of assault: from legal support to help them file for orders of protection, to emergency housing, to mental and reproductive

health services.

Until then, we owe survivors the agency to decide for themselves what is best for them, and not to pressure or disbelieve them if they decide that what is best for them is to not report.

As a child sexual assault survivor, I did not have the vocabulary about what happened to me at the time in order to tell my parents, much less the police. I wonder sometimes what would have happened if I had spoken up. I wonder whether it would have prevented the assaults I was later told that he went on to commit (though I have no proof of them, no more than I have proof of my own).

It took me the better part of two decades to recover from the assault. But I wonder how much longer it would have taken if I had reported: If in addition to the scars of anxiety, nausea, nightmares, and flashbacks that recurred for years, leaving me disassociated and unfamiliar to myself, I would've also had to contend with scars from a court process that took up my adolescence and retraumatized me over and over—all for an $8\%$ chance that the person who assaulted me would receive any consequences at all.

When I think about that, it's not regret that I feel for not speaking up: It's relief.

TRUMP drew condemnation from California leaders for his remarks on Monday.

It's hard to spin this comment

Re “Trump’s bashing of California hits a new extreme,” Oct. 7

WHEN journalists quote people, they use square brackets to indicate words that are implied but not spoken. This might be useful in understanding Trump's words at a rally on Monday.

Most people understood him to say, “They (Iran) can take out a city. [If so, then] let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. [It's California, so no big loss.] This is a very small price to pay.” This is clearly how Gov. Gavin Newsom understood it when he called Trump “deranged and dangerous.” But it is also how his audience understood it, because they know how he disdains our state. That is why they laughed when he said it, because many of them share that disdain.

But White House communications director Steven Cheung claimed that “clearly” Trump’s speech meant that the Iran war is to protect our U.S. cities from nuclear attack, and that what Trump meant is, “They can take out a city. [But don’t] let them take out Los Angeles. [Don’t] let them take out San Diego. This [period of high fuel costs] is a very small price to pay [for saving our cities].”

So, like in “Alice in Wonderland,” “true” means “false” and “yes” means “no.” This reminds me of the words of Lewis Carroll’s Humpty Dumpty, who said, “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean.”

Just when it seems unlikely that President Trump could say or do anything to further demonstrate his audacity, thoughtlessness and recklessness, he suggests that it would be no big deal if Iran caused death

and havoc to Los Angeles or San Diego. What kind of American president of any political persuasion suggests that any foreign power bomb a city or town in this country?

The search for pejora-

tives describing Trump's character was exhausted long ago. If there is any elected Republican official remaining with a semblance of courage and integrity, now is the time to loudly proclaim their outrage and demand the resignation of this foolish and dangerous man.

JOE MARTIN Seattle

:

Steven Cheung must have fallen down after all the spinning he did in an attempt to explain away and smooth out Trump's comment that Iran "can take out a city, let 'em take out Los Angeles, let 'em take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

I do not in any way, shape or form consider this just a joke. It is a mean and cruel gesture to the citizens of those cities and the whole state of California. I consider this to be a strategy to create animosity toward us.

Ventura

: :

As a San Diego resident, what I found most disheartening about Trump's latest verbal ramble was that his audience cheered when he said "let 'em take out Los Angeles, let 'em take out San Diego." Even if the White House mop-up crew manages to "clarify" the remarks, it's most disconcerting to know that some of my fellow Americans would cheer my obliteration. Malice this extreme doesn't bode well for our country's well-being.

VIRGINIA HYDE San Diego

: :

I first want to apologize to Angelenos and San Die- gans on behalf of my state for the laughter that broke out recently at a Nebraska rally at Trump's flippant remarks about Iran possibly "tak[ing] out" L.A. or San Diego as "a small price to pay." Never in my lifetime have I heard such an abhor- rent statement from an elected official, let alone the president of the United

States.

I want you all to know that not all Nebraskans are like the people who laughed and cheered at Trump's rally. A lot of us are distressed, like so many of you, at the current state of our country and its leadership, and ache for us to have a competent and strong leader once again. I hope this letter finds the citizens of L.A. and San Diego well and I wish nothing but the best for your cities and the United States of America.

MATT RATHJE Lincoln, Neb.

:

This one felt more personal than usual. We've all seen a lot of offensive material coming out of Trump, but in this, he has really upped his game.

The president says he considers my death, and the deaths of everyone in the L.A. and San Diego areas reading this, a regrettable but acceptable loss in his war with Iran. He didn't even bother to use the old “I was only joking” defense.

When it comes down to it, a president really has two jobs: Don't embarrass us, and don't get us killed. He is a complete failure on the first one, and doing his level best to blow the second one.

Side note: The good citizens of Nebraska who cheered at this remark need to rethink their life choices.

Ad's suggestion is offensive

Re “Hilton faces backlash over provocative ad,” Oct. 4

Steve Hilton's sexually charged political ad certainly got him some attention. The narrative — with one assertive young woman telling a bashful second woman “give me your hand,” “close your eyes” and "I'll do all the work" — was decidedly edgy even without the boudoir lighting. Was it vote-moving? Pastor Jack Hibbs, the influential conservative evangelical founder of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, found the ad "grotesque" but nonetheless proclaimed that he will still vote for Hilton.

The more salacious element to me is the combination of sexual suggestion and physical guidance, even coercion, with the assertive partner physically guiding the other's ballot choice on camera. It appears that one person is manipulating another's vote. Isn't that vote-manipulation metaphor disturbing to Hilton, Pastor Hibbs and the GOP? It is to me.

More housing, more water use

Re “Water bills have ballooned,” Oct. 8

One wonders, if water is such a scarce commodity here in Southern California, then why are politicians pushing for higher-density housing and more of it? It seems like adding more water resources should be a foundational requirement for building more housing.

Perhaps some forward-looking politicians will dump the bullet train to nowhere and instead invest that money in a water pipeline from Northern California to Southern California. Better yet, start looking for water desalination plant sites on the Pacific coast.

Experts are still untangling the reasons for the explosion of legal payouts involving police — which stretches far beyond L.A.

This year, a legal defense organization found that New York City has paid more than \$796 million since 2019 to settle lawsuits involving accusations of police misconduct — including \$117 million in 2025. In Chicago, the city is on track to blow past the \$252 million spent last year to resolve police lawsuits, mostly involving plaintiffs who went to prison based on faulty evidence, according to local news reports.

In Los Angeles, the surge has come under the watch of City Atty. Hydee Feldstein Soto, who has blamed the rising costs on the way the office handled litigation of all kinds before her administration — as well as a national legal trend of so-called nuclear verdicts.

"The system is getting inflated in a way that is unhealthy and it creates, I think, incentives to sue and to do pie-in-the-sky settlements," Feldstein Soto said in an interview with The Times this year. She said her office evaluates each claim case by case, deciding when it makes more sense to settle rather than go to trial, at which juries can issue decisions based on emotion or differing perceptions of what occurred. Feldstein Soto has lobbied for years to change state law to limit "non-economic" damages.

Feldstein Soto's critics contend that she has pursued a hard-line approach in recent years, refusing to settle except in cases where it is clear the city is likely to lose in court.

That tough stance has led to mixed results. The city has lost some jury verdicts that could have been avoided if it had been willing to settle. It has also prevailed in several high-profile cases, including this year when a jury ruled that an officer was not liable for the 2021 death of a 14-year-old girl killed by a wayward bullet fired during a hasty confrontation with a suspect at a North Hollywood department store.

The city attorney's office said in a statement to The Times that while it is proactively working to curb rising litigation costs “by every means possible,” it could not “control the number, timing or claimed damages of lawsuits filed against the City.”

“Nor does the Office have control over the alleged root causes of these liabilities: the City Attorney’s Office is not responsible for LAPD policies or personnel,” said the statement, adding that the number of lawsuits filed against the city has risen by roughly 20% in each of the last four budget years, straining the office’s resources.

Zachary Powell, an associate professor of criminal justice at Cal State San Ber-

nardino, said that although data suggest that use of force by police has decreased since 2020, the public has become “much more aware of police abuses and conduct than they ever were before.”

"I think people also ask a lot more questions in a jury setting," he said.

Other explanations, he says, are the passage of statewide police accountability measures and the fact that a backlog of cases from the pandemic years is finally coming due.

The Times' analysis found that hundreds of legal battles involving officer-involved traffic incidents make up nearly a quarter of all payouts. Since 2019, the city has paid \$125 million for the thousands of accident claims, just under a third of which stemmed from cases in which officers were found to have failed to stop or yield at crossings before crashing into another vehicle or a pedestrian. Pursuit-related claims and suits stemming from cases in which officers made improper left turns have also cost the city millions.

Other legal costs date back years — and in some cases decades.

The city is still paying \$7,410 a month to Clarence Chance, who in the early 1990s was awarded a large payment over a wrongful arrest that led him to spend 17 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit. Nearly \$40 million has gone to people whose homes were damaged after the LAPD bomb squad botched the detonation of seized fireworks and leveled part of a city block in 2021.

One of the biggest payout categories was \$104.6 million spent since 2019 on claims related to police shootings — more than three-fourths of which involved people who were reported to be under the influence of a substance or in the midst of a mental health crisis, according to The Times' analysis. Roughly \$38.4 million was paid out after police shot someone wielding an edged weapon, such as a knife, the analysis found. Shootings involving gang officers cost the city nearly \$4 million in that span.

Dozens of lawsuits remain pending, including claims related to the handling of mass pro-immigration protests since last year, probably putting taxpayers on the hook for more large payouts in the future. Police use of hard foam projectiles, horse-mounted officers and other tactics against crowds have already cost the city at least \$22 million in the last seven and a half years — just over half of which stemmed from the department's response to the 2020 mass protests over the murder of George Floyd.

Such totals may not always include lawyer fees that are negotiated after a settlement is reached — or if a case is appealed.

Jonathan Evans, a civil rights attorney who has sued the department, thinks the big payouts show that greater public awareness of mental health issues is a factor. Recognizing this, he said, municipalities are agreeing to higher settlements than in years past.

"The decision to use lethal force is being more heavily scrutinized," he said.

Tens of millions of city dollars have in recent years gone to disgruntled police officers who sued over workplace injustices such as sexual harassment, racial discrimination and retaliation.

Since 2019, at least 27 LAPD employees have won million-dollar-plus jury verdicts or settlements from the city; many more have seen five- or six-figure pay-days.

To clamp down on future legal costs, the department last year brought back a former senior official, Arif Alikhan — at a monthly salary of \$20,000, paid for by a private donation — to study how to reduce the number of costly lawsuits. Alikhan did not respond to a call requesting comment.

The department maintains an early intervention system that flags officers based on risk factors, such as a relatively high volume of civilian complaints, frequent use of force, and involvement in preventable traffic collisions or pursuits. The system is used to determine whether they need additional training or should be reassigned or placed on a performance improvement plan.

Within the LAPD, some officers and the Los Angeles Police Protective League, the rank-and-file union, argue that the city should fight back harder against claims with no credibility instead of settling. They say officers who are most often sued tend to come from specialized units that do the type of proactive policing that the department and most of the public want: targeting gangs, drugs and guns.

Attorneys who represent officers who have sued the department over whistleblower retaliation dismiss the claim by Chief Jim McDonnell and others that some officers are exaggerating their claims in pursuit of a big payday.

If anything, they say, the continued large payouts are a product of entrenched racial and gender bias and inconsistent discipline — and the LAPD's unwillingness to learn its lessons from past lawsuits.

Greg Yacoubian, a labor attorney, said there is little incentive for the current system to change because the costs of lawsuits are passed on to taxpayers — not the officers involved in misconduct and their bosses.

"The person responsible for the error never feels the pinch," Yacoubian said.

Sex abuse victims sell rights to delayed county payouts

ROBERT GAUTHIER Los Angeles Times
MacLAREN HALL, a former children's shelter run by L.A. County, has been the subject of multiple lawsuits.

CARLIN STIEHL Los Angeles Times
TAMMY ROGERS, a survivor of child abuse at Mac-Laren Hall, sits for an interview in September 2025.

[Payouts, from A1] private companies are offering lump sums to victims who are willing to sign over the rights to their anticipated settlement money, sometimes sacrificing a significant chunk of the payout in the process.

“They’re circling like sharks in the water,” said James Turpin, another claimant in the settlement, who said a representative from a funding company messaged him on Facebook.

Many involved say they're desperate to get whatever money they can and move ahead with their lives as the case has gotten bogged down by delays and fraud allegations. While some victims are getting their first payments this fall, two law firms behind the bulk of the claims in the settlement have had their payouts paused pending probes, leaving thousands in limbo.

“It’s been too long and I’m tired of reliving that over and over again,” said Deborah Isom Smith, who sold her payout stemming from her claim related to MacLaren Hall, a former county-run children’s shelter notorious for abuse. “I just want to go live my life.”

The funding companies are standing by to assist.

“Hi all, I know waiting on your LA settlement money is tough,” wrote a representative from Liberty Settlement Funding on a Facebook group for victims of MacLaren Hall. “No pressure at all — just here to help.”

Over the last few months, more than 180 victims across the country have moved to sell their payouts to about a dozen different companies, according to Ray Boucher, one of the lead plaintiff attorneys coordinating the cases.

Frederick Love, chief legal officer for LA Settlement Funding, which has bought many of the payouts, said their transactions were “priced as tightly as possible to provide the maximum benefit to the sellers.” He said the discount rates range from 9% to 11%.

Most victims will get a lump sum equivalent to about 80% of the amount they're selling, according to court filings, while some are poised to fare far worse.

One Gardena man signed a contract to sell \$90,400 of his payout for \$25,000, according to court filings. An attorney representing the funding company, Datura Capital, said the rate was a mistake, and the man will get about 72% of his payout at the corrected rate.

“I am not doing this lightly and there is an urgent need for doing so,” the man wrote in an Aug. 26 declaration. “I was told by the doctors that I have chronic kidney disease and need treatment right away. I don’t have the funds for this otherwise.”

In California, a judge

needs to approve the sale of a settlement payout after finding it in the best interest of the claimant. The filings typically detail various reasons the victims need the money now: looming homelessness, college tuition, a down payment on a house.

Boris Treyzon, a partner at ACTS Law, which represents about 1,700 plaintiffs, said he's appeared in court recently to urge a judge to re-

ject a sale.

"The interest rates are insane," Treyzon said.

Lawyers representing plaintiffs in these cases say the contracts leave critical questions unanswered, including who is responsible for paying attorney fees — which typically gobble up about 40% of the payouts in these cases — and what happens if a victim ends up getting more money than anticipated in the initial deal.

Love, of LA Settlement Funding, said his company is only buying the victims' portion of the settlement and said "any payments that are in excess of that being assigned" will go back to the plaintiff.

A spokesperson for L.A. County said in a statement that the loan companies are the latest example of third parties chipping away at funds set aside to compensate victims of sexual abuse. The county faced the deluge of lawsuits after a change in state law, known as Assembly Bill 218, allowed people to sue over abuse that took place decades ago.

“Aggressive finance firms exploiting vulnerable AB 218 victims for a payday now scheme is yet another failure of the system to put appropriate guardrails on the ever-ballooning problem facing California public entities,” the county said in a statement. “The ongoing siphoning of taxpayer dollars for profit, whether from plaintiff attorneys who are taking up to 50% of a victim’s settlement or settlement firms offering fast payment for a fee, is fundamentally against the original intent of AB 218.”

Neffertashia Burroughs, who said she was abused in a juvenile hall as a teenager, said she isn't happy with the deal, but doesn't see another option. Like many victims, she said the case has opened up old wounds and she's tired of the timeline for payment shifting seemingly every month.

She's on the brink of eviction, she said, and sometimes does not have enough to feed her children.

“I am struggling to heal myself while remaining trapped in a system that seems to consist of delays, uncertainty, and repeated excuses,” she wrote in an email. “I am exhausted.”

Others say they feel the rates are decent, but are perturbed by the flood of calls from companies who won't explain how they got their contact information. Nearly all the sex abuse lawsuits are filed under pseudonyms.

“So help me understand how you guys got my information,” Krista Hubbard texted a salesperson with a funding company based in Miami Lakes, Fla. “If I need to, I will have your company audited if I cannot get an answer.”

“Have a nice day,” the salesperson responded.

Skiers hyped for El Niño, but a jackpot of snow isn't guaranteed

By Jack Dolan

While many Californians are bracing for a miserable few months of rain and floods courtesy of the developing El Niño, millions of outdoor enthusiasts are celebrating the possibility of the greatest winter ever.

If you're a skier or snowboarder, your social media feed is probably bursting with giddy predictions of a season for the ages. The parade of atmospheric river storms that could soak flatlanders could just as easily deliver record-breaking powder at higher, colder elevations.

Which means resorts such as Mammoth Mountain, whose 11,000-foot summit makes it the highest ski area in California, stand a real chance of hitting the jackpot this season. In the Tahoe area, Heavenly, at 10,000 feet, could fare pretty well, too.

Cautious optimism gave way to unrestrained joy last month, when Gov. Gavin Newsom included snow-removal equipment on the long list of supplies to gather and have ready in his El Niño state of emergency declaration.

Ski resort marketing directors across the state must have swooned: State of Emergency, baby!

It's hard to blame them for going a little over the top.

Ski resorts hope to bounce back

Paltry snow across the American West last winter dealt a crippling blow to resort towns whose economies depend heavily on tourism.

The “snow famine” hit particularly hard in California which, despite its reputation as a beach destination, is home to the most skiers and snowboarders in the United States — more than 2 million, according to industry data.

Neighbors celebrate beloved Shakespeare Bridge in Los Feliz

BY CHRISTOPHER REYNOLDS

There is no love like municipal infrastructure love.

It was late in the 20th century when my wife, Mary Frances, and I moved into Los Feliz. Quickly we learned that our corner of the neighborhood was known as Franklin Hills, and that just about every eastward outing would take us across a funny little bridge with eight pointy turrets.

That bridge was the Shakespeare Bridge.

As a teacher at nearby Ivanhoe Elementary, Mary Frances crossed the bridge twice every school day for more than 20 years. As a student there, our daughter Grace crossed it for six years, usually with me as chauffeur.

We've crossed it at all hours in every kind of weather, on foot, on bikes and in cars, talking about school, work, family and, lately, the fractured state of the nation and world.

Now that bridge on Franklin Avenue at St. George Street is near its 100th anniversary and a neighborhood celebration Saturday is in the works, complete with a street party and procession. As the day approached, I found myself thinking about how large a funny little bridge can become in the lives of its neighbors.

Originally it was the Franklin Avenue Bridge, designed by J.C. Wright of the city's civil engineering department in the mid-1920s, when a twentysomething cartoonist named Walt Disney was new to the neighborhood and the Vitagraph Studios, a block away, were transitioning from silent films to talkies.

Paid for by a controversial city assessment of neighbors, the bridge is 262 feet long and 30 feet wide — a pip-squeak compared with landmarks such as Pasadena's Colorado Street Bridge or [See Bridge, B2]

Payouts coming over toxic ICE spray

BY ANDREA CASTILLO

WASHINGTON — Six years after he was released from a California immigrant detention facility, Wilfredo Gonzalez Mena has to sleep with his back propped up by pillows, nearly in a seated position, to avoid gasping for air.

He blames his lasting medical issues on the 10 months he spent in custody until September 2020 at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center, about 60 miles northeast of Los Angeles, during which guards sprayed him and fellow detainees nearly around the clock with a concentrated disinfectant meant to guard against COVID-19.

Now Gonzalez Mena, who is one of six named plaintiffs in a class-action lawsuit filed in 2023 over the use of the cleaning solution, is expected to get a six-figure payout as part of a proposed settlement in the case, which was given preliminary approval on Sept. 25 by a federal judge in Riverside. The settlement applies to around 2,700 people detained at the Adelanto facility between March 11, 2020, and Sept. 30, 2020, who were exposed to the disinfectant called HDQ Neutral.

"When you least expected it, you would feel the mist," Gonzalez Mena said. "They would spray us like we were animals."

The Adelanto facility is operated by the GEO Group, a Florida-based private prison corporation that has faced criticism for years over conditions at its immigrant detention facilities. The company has also pushed back against California laws seeking to increase oversight of its facilities and inform the public about health and safety shortcomings.

Under the settlement, GEO Group and Spartan Chemical Co. Inc., the company that manufactures HDQ Neutral, acknowledged that HDQ Neutral — [See Spray, B2]

Hilton causes a stir with ‘immigrant’ attack on his rival

Becerra says his U.S.-born father's story of living on both sides of the border is a point of pride.

SACRAMENTO ver the last week, guberna- torial candidate Steve Hilton has created the

exact kind of media kerfuffle he loves best by attacking his rival Xavier Becerra for Becerra's description of his parents as "immigrants."

Although Becerra's mother, Maria, was born in Mexico, his father, Manuel, came into the world in Sacramento, in 1928. Soon after, Becerra's grandparents moved their young family back to Mexico, where Manuel was raised until he returned to the U.S. as a young man to work.

As my colleague Gustavo Arellano said in a must-read column, this border back-and-forth has been more the norm than the exception for California's Mexican American population for decades, if not centuries. Manuel Becerra's luck at being born on U.S. soil may have given him an advantage, but it didn't make him any less of an immigrant, Arellano explained, especially in an era when Sacramento's Mexican population was below 2,500 and racism remained openly practiced and disturbingly accepted.

Hilton, however, has seized on Manuel Becerra's U.S. citizenship to brand the younger Becerra a liar, allegedly falsely framing himself as the son of immigrants to gain identity-politics points in a state of immigrants. Whether one or both of Becerra's parents qualifies as an immigrant might seem like minutiae to most voters, but Hilton's accusation has thumped on the nerves on both the left and right — including my own, as the daughter of a South Asian immigrant.

Scratch the surface of Hilton's attack and it becomes about something far more than Manuel Becerra's citizenship — it's a thinly veiled dog whistle about how a “good” immigrant behaves and how we should

ICE detainees to get payouts over toxic mist

ALLEN J. SCHABEN Los Angeles Times STAFF at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center repeatedly sprayed detainees with a concentrated disinfectant that was meant to guard against COVID-19 in 2020.

[Spray, from B1] which is classified as a pesticide — can cause symptoms including blistering, chemical burns, vomiting, permanent eye damage and damage to the respiratory tract, throat and stomach.

Those findings can now be used by class members who weren't named plaintiffs and may pursue their own lawsuits, the settlement says.

Neither GEO Group nor the Department of Homeland Security responded to requests for comment. After the lawsuit was filed, GEO Group denied the allegations and said cleaning products are used safely and securely, in accordance with the manufacturer's guidelines and sanitation standards, at all detention centers.

At the time, a GEO Group spokesperson called the allegations “part of a radical politically motivated campaign to attack [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] contractors, abolish ICE and end federal immigration detention.”

The company later swapped HDQ Neutral for a different cleaning product.

Lawyers from the Los Angeles-based civil rights nonprofit Trial Impact Project who are representing the former detainees called the settlement a victory.

Executive Director Sara Haji referenced other pending lawsuits addressing allegations such as medical neglect, retaliation and substandard food and water. Each one points to the same problem, she said.

“When a company like GEO settles instead of defending itself at trial, and when it admits that the pesticide it sprayed everywhere can cause serious health problems, it should cause us all to sit up and pay attention to what detained people have been telling us about the everyday cruelty of immigration detention,” Haji said.

The lawsuit alleged that GEO Group engaged in a “months-long poisoning” of detainees when its employees sprayed HDQ Neutral inside the facility. Before the pandemic, staffers had used it as a cleaning product. But as COVID-19 spread, they began spraying the concentrated solution across wide areas, “directly into the air and on all types of surfaces,” the lawsuit said.

Detained immigrants quickly began experiencing the effects, the lawsuit claimed, including nosebleeds, headaches and dizziness.

Spartan Chemical warns that inappropriate exposure can cause the types of effects detainees experienced. Long-term exposure has been linked to asthma and, in laboratory studies on animals, reproductive issues and birth defects.

In 2021, the Environmental Protection Agency found that GEO Group had violated federal law by misusing HDQ Neutral. The report found that staff and detainees were instructed to apply the pesticide inside the facility as often as every 30 minutes, without proper ventilation and at a dilution rate of 2 ounces per gallon of water, which is double the amount allowed for disinfectant use.

In September 2020, a federal judge ordered GEO Group to discontinue use of HDQ Neutral at the Adelanto facility, writing that it had been used “with a callous disregard for the safety of Adelanto’s detainees.”

Among the more than 100,000 pages of documents released during discovery for the lawsuit was an email from a nurse at the facility to Wendy Baca, who was acting health services administrator at the Adelanto facility for Wellpath, the company providing its medical care at the time. The nurse wrote that patients were arriving with headaches, rashes and blisters, “we believe, due to the chemicals being used to spray.”

"Some of the officers have also reported 'feeling burned' after touching their skin with the same gloves that were used to handle the chemical. Please look into this so we do not endanger everyone we are trying to protect," the nurse wrote.

Baca appeared dismissive of the nurse's concern. She forwarded the email to GEO Group's chief of security, asking him to look into it.

“Please also remind them not to put metal into light sockets, run with scissors, or anything usually avoided with a little common sense,” she wrote.

Mark Anthony Ferretiz, a former GEO Group cook supervisor who worked at the Adelanto facility for 14 years until March 2025, wrote in a declaration that his team was told to spray the red chemical “like Lysol.”

"I could taste the spray in my mouth when I used it, and it felt heavy in my lungs," he wrote.

At some point, the facility's safety manager brought men from HD Supply to talk to the staff about HDQ Neutral. After learning how often the chemical was being sprayed, one of the men told Ferretiz that it was "rat poison" and that "you're going to kill someone like that," he said.

Years later, former detainees such as Gonzalez Mena say they're still living with the fallout. The former long-haul truck driver said his health deteriorated so significantly while he was detained that, afterward, he could no longer pass the required physical assessment because of his vision and breathing issues.

To make ends meet, he has turned to online resale.

"My wife says that after I was released, I didn't go back to being the same person," he said. "I've had depression and I often dream that I am there, in that place, and I want to get out."

Rare rabid raccoon case sparks warning

BY KAREN GARCIA

Los Angeles County health officials are reminding residents and their pets to be safe around wild animals, after finding the first rabid raccoon case in more than 50 years.

A sick raccoon was discovered in a Westlake Village backyard but was not aggressive toward people, behavior that is commonly associated with rabies-infected animals, the Los Angeles County Public Health Department announced Monday.

A few people at a worksite near the animal and a dog — that was up to date on its rabies vaccination — were potentially exposed to the disease.

"The detection of rabies in a raccoon is an important reminder to never touch, handle or feed any wild animals, even when they appear healthy," said Dr. Muntu Davis, health officer for Los Angeles County. "Always keep a safe distance from wildlife and contact your local animal control if you encounter an animal that appears sick, injured or is behaving unusually."

Four people at the work-site are receiving rabies post-exposure prophylaxis — which can include a dose of human rabies immune globulin and a rabies vaccine, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The canine is under quarantine and officials say it's doing well.

Rabies is a rare but serious disease that can infect the brains of both people and animals, according to the California Department of Public Health.

An infected animal can pass rabies to another animal or to a person through its bite, but that's not the only way it can be transmitted.

Exposure can occur any time saliva or tissue from the infected animal enters the body, such as through a bite or a scratch, or contact with a wound or the mouth, nose or eyes.

In California, bats and skunks are the animals that most often get rabies, according to the state health department.

The last known rabid raccoon in Los Angeles County was detected in 1973, when a skunk variant of rabies was still present in the area. That particular strain has not been detected in the county since 1979.

Officials say the last animal confirmed to have rabies that wasn't a bat was a skunk infected with the bat strain of rabies in Long Beach in 2014.

Public health officials are investigating which rabies strain the raccoon was infected with.

“Based on current knowledge of rabies occurrence in Los Angeles County, it is likely this raccoon was infected with rabies from a bat,” public health officials stated in a news release. “However, Public Health is awaiting subsequent variant testing, which can take several weeks.”

Rabies exposure in L.A. County is more commonly linked to rabies-infected bats. Rabid bat detections can vary year-to-year, but Los Angeles County has seen a steady upward trend for more than a decade.

So far this year, there have been a record-breaking 70 rabid bats confirmed in Los Angeles County.

Experts who study bats say that, although residents should practice caution, the odds of getting rabies from the flying creatures remain very low.

Rabies infects very few humans in the United States and California, according to the state public health department. Fewer than 10 human deaths are reported each year in the nation. Since 1980, rabies has been reported in 17 people in California, most recently in 2024. A Contra Costa County resident who became infected with rabies died in 2012.

Shall we compare this L.A. bridge to a summer's day?

SHAKESPEARE Bridge spans a Franklin Hills neighborhood ravine with downtown L.A. in the background.

Library of Congress
THE bridge has eight turrets. Architectural sources call its style Gothic Revival.

[Bridge, from B1] [Bridge, from BI] the 6th Street Bridge between Boyle Heights and downtown L.A.'s Arts District. Its three open-spandrel arches were made using Portland cement.

Nobody knows where the Shakespeare nickname came from, but city officials designated the bridge as L.A.'s Historic-Cultural Monument No. 126 in 1974 and retrofitted it in the 1990s to better withstand earthquakes. Crucially, city staffers preserved those charming and entirely unnecessary turrets, which deserve their own sonnet, if you ask me.

“Back then, people put some thought into these things,” City Council aide Tom LaBonge told this newspaper in 1988, years before he became councilman (2001-15) for the district that includes the bridge.

Since 2017, neighbors have tended a Shakespeare Bridge Garden beneath the span. The neighbors (a.k.a. the Franklin Hills Residents Assn.) also pay to keep up the landscaping on the nearby traffic island.

When the bridge went up, L.A. “was becoming a city,” said Alison Wallace, president of the FHRA. “We were trying to look legit, and people were adding all of these amazing public works.”

The result, Wallace said, was a span that eased connections between neighborhoods and “helped us become a community.”

Many architectural sources call its style Gothic Revival. Some see Moorish influence. Researcher Tiger Schenkman has hailed its “perky, anachronistic beauty.” In “An Architectural Guidebook to Los Angeles,” authors David Gebhard and Robert Winter suggest that the ornate ends of the bridge “cry out for sculptured saints.”

Instead of saints, however, the bridge has seen a lot of actors and film crews. The bridge turns up in the movies "Dead Again" (1991) and "I Love You, Man" (2009), the Netflix series "Nobody Wants This" (in 2025) and the HBO series "I Love L.A." (also 2025). My favorite clip is a chase sequence from a 1971 "Mannix" episode — excruciatingly slow-paced by 2026 standards, and shot long before the FHRA tore out the city's blacktop median and planted greenery.

Given all of its neighborhood fame, it surprised me to hear how few Angelenos know about the bridge. When Charlie Ryan and Thom Vest started offering LA Explained walking tours early this year, they expected the Disney history would be a popular part of their Los Feliz itinerary, but the bridge quickly emerged as another central element.

Because most of those who sign up for the Los Feliz tour live elsewhere, they have never crossed the bridge “and don’t know it’s there,” Ryan said. “Out of all the tours that I do, it’s the one that brings the most surprise to people.”

But plenty of those who live nearby have deep connections with the bridge, including Charley and Shirley Mims, who got married there on Oct. 21, 2000.

To open the ceremony, Shirley strolled from the west end of the bridge to the east, where Charley was waiting. (They still live in the neighborhood and plan to be at the centennial party.)

"When you see the bridge and cross it," my neighbor Dave McDonald said the other day, "you feel like you're home. It's like a welcoming beacon."

"It's a real local's way of getting around," said Matteo Chizzola, who moved to Los Angeles four years ago and settled in Los Feliz two years ago. Last year, when Chizzola decided to start selling matcha from a sort of grown-up street-corner lemonade stand, he chose a patch of sidewalk at Franklin Avenue and Talmadge Street, two blocks from the bridge.

"It is beautiful and it's weird," he said. "If you go at the right time of day, at sunset, it's an incredible view."

Chizzola said he isn't getting rich running the stand, Fridays through Sundays, but "it has become something that puts a huge smile on my face."

He'll be on hand for the bridge's centennial parade, along with invited local luminaries, including Victor the fruit guy (who worked a corner near Marshall High School for more than a decade) and Dora Herrera of the much-loved Yuca's restaurant on Hillhurst Avenue.

Sometimes, when Mary Frances and I are on a neighborhood walk, we stop midspan. In the distance to the south, you see the downtown skyline. In the arroyo below the bridge (officially the Arroyo de Sacatela) you see the private homes and yards along Monon Street and Myra Avenue. You also see the Los Feliz campus of the International School of Los Angeles (1960), the only school designed by modernist architect John Lautner.

Then there are the decorations.

Every few months, in a tradition started by departed neighbor Chris Boutelle, Mary Frances joins a team of FHRA board members and other volunteers who put up hearts for Valentine's Day, shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day, Pride and Juneteenth flags in June, American flags and bunting in the lead-up to July 4, and so on.

Most of these costume changes are seamless. But in June 2023, someone tore down the Pride flags. Neighbors quickly replaced them. They came down again. Neighbors replaced them again. The back-and-forth went on for weeks. A suspect was arrested, released, then re-arrested.

“It was almost every day for a month. People really came together,” said Wallace. The vandal surely didn’t mean to, but Wallace contends that he wound up uniting the neighborhood as never before.

The Saturday bridge celebration, organized by the FHRA, will begin with a noon procession to the bridge from Marshall High School (another neighborhood Gothic Revival landmark), featuring a marching band, several vintage cars and a costumed dog parade.

At the end of that short walk, there's a party planned from 1 to 4 p.m. at the end of Monon Street, right under the bridge. There will be snacks, drinks, live music, kid crafts, a bouncy house, a handful of actors in Shakespearean garb and seads of neighbors being neighborly.

I'll be there for all of it. In times like these, every bridge needs celebrating.

Space station crew splashes down off coast after mission

later.

The astronauts were onboard for 237 days, completing 3,792 orbits around Earth.

By Ruben Vives

A nearly eight-month stint aboard the International Space Station came to a splashing end for NASA's SpaceX Crew-12 on Thursday, when their recovery vessel safely splashed down off the coast of Los Angeles.

The four crew members spent 237 days living and working inside the space station — advancing scientific research while traveling more than 100 million miles, completing 3,792 orbits around Earth, NASA officials said in a statement.

The crew is expected to fly back to the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston following medical screenings, officials said.

The SpaceX Crew-12 mission launched Feb. 13, and the crew docked with the space station a day

The crew consisted of NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, European Space Agency astronaut Sophie Adenot and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev.

It was the second mission for Meir and Fedyaev and the first for Hathaway and Adenot, according to NASA. Officials said Meir completed four spacewalks — bringing her career total to seven, the third-most by a woman at NASA.

Adenot completed three spacewalks while also becoming the first French woman to venture outside the orbital outpost.

NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said crew members also helped advance important research that will benefit future explorations, as well as the planet.

The research work included testing stem cell production, creating and testing IV fluid, and studying how the bacteria that cause pneumonia can lead to long-term heart damage. The crew also conducted

nutrition-focused research and examined how physical characteristics may affect blood flow during space-flight to help keep astronauts safe and healthy on future missions.

“NASA’s activities supporting the International Space Station — transporting crew, conducting impactful research, and maintaining critical national assets — enable the science, engineering, and risk-reduction needed for future missions across the solar system,” said Dana Weigel, manager of NASA’s Low

Mold, larvae reported at ICE facility

A monitor finds the government largely out of compliance at Adelanto center.

BY RUBEN VIVES

Mold and gnat larvae in shower rooms, cracked and worn-out mattresses, delayed visitations and an inadequate system to track disability accommodations were among the ongoing violations documented for the first time by an independent court monitor at California's largest immigration detention center.

A second monitor assigned to inspect the medical conditions at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center told the court it was prevented from accessing the facility and medical records.

The report comes three months after a federal judge ordered sweeping reforms at the facility and appointed two court monitors to assess conditions there.

The order, part of a class-action lawsuit filed by detainees over conditions at the facility, required the government to provide 24-hour access to clean drinking water, nutritious and sanitary meals, proper medical care, adequate sanitation throughout the facility, including mold remediation, and at least four hours of daily outdoor time.

Court monitor Kellie Wasko's report asserts that the government remained largely out of compliance with the court's order. The report focused on two buildings of the facility dubbed East and West. During her visit, Wasko documented that the 1,708 detainees in the buildings had access to clean drinking water and hygiene products, and that the facility was kept clean.

At the same time, she found the tap water detainees used was often lukewarm, and the facility was using a spigot to refill water coolers for the East building. The facility was not using the proper filtration system in the other building.

She also observed mold in “every general population shower room” of the West building as well as “larvae on the floors,” according to the report. She said there were no mold issues in the East building but that the shower curtains were torn and had developed mold and mildew.

Wasko also observed that the air ventilation system needed cleaning.

"The detainees tell me that they feel someone is always getting cold or sick because of the particles coming from the ducts," Wasko wrote in her report.

She said she's waiting for menus with caloric values, as well as reports from the visiting dietitian to determine whether detainees are receiving nutritious meals. She said the facility is also working to improve outdoor recreation time.

In Wednesday's court filing, attorneys for the detainees asked a federal judge to hold the government in civil contempt for violating the order and to impose daily fines of \$500 for each violation until they are addressed. They asked a judge to hold a hearing Tuesday.

The attorneys said detainees have complained about going three to seven hours without water, and about having access only to tap water that tastes like metal and smells like fish.

They said at least one man collapsed in mid-September and was hospitalized for dehydration, and meals have been served as early as 4 a.m. They alleged workers painted over the mold instead of removing it, and that outdoor time remains limited, allegations the court monitor confirmed.

"The government has had every opportunity to comply, and it has chosen not to," said Rebecca Brown, supervising attorney at Public Counsel, the main law firm representing the plaintiffs. "That is defiance of a federal court order, and people are being hospitalized because of it.

“We demand that the government comply with the court's order now, and we are asking the court to hold it accountable if it does not.”

In a court filing Wednesday, the government told the court it was complying and that it was starting to provide outstanding requests from the monitors.

In an email response to The Times, an unidentified spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security said “any claim that there are subprime conditions at Adelanto ICE Processing Center are false.”

“All detainees are provided with proper meals, water, medical treatment, and have opportunities to communicate with their family members and lawyers,” the statement read. “ICE has higher detention standards than most U.S. prisons that hold actual U.S. citizens.”

Homeland Security officials said their staff uses the same water as residents and businesses in the city of Adelanto.

"Our staff members at the facility also consume the water alongside illegal aliens," the spokesperson wrote. "Employees and illegal aliens have access to this water supply 24/7 through water fountains and coolers."

Wednesday's filing marks the latest escalation in the legal fight over conditions at the facility and the government's lack of compliance with the court's directives.

At least four people have died at the facility, where nearly 1,800 people are being held. Families alleged inadequate care at the facility contributed to their relatives' deaths. The federal agencies have disputed those claims.

The Adelanto facility, which was recently purchased by DHS from the private prison giant GEO Group Inc., has faced longstanding scrutiny over its conditions and treatment of detained immigrants, with federal and state oversight reports documenting repeated concerns about detainee safety, medical care and the use of segregation.

A 2018 federal report by the Office of Inspector General urged Immigration and Customs Enforcement to conduct a full review of the facility and GEO Group's management, after finding serious violations, including overly restrictive detainee segregation and guards who failed to keep detainees from hanging braided sheet "nooses."

Last year, a report from the California Department of Justice found that the six privately operated immigration detention facilities in the state, including Adelanto, fell short in providing inmates mental health care, needed better suicide prevention strategies and used disproportionate force against detainees with mental health conditions.

Most recently, a trove of documents published and later removed by ICE shows that the agency's own investigators repeatedly found that people died in U.S. immigration detention centers after receiving substandard medical care.

The internal reports, which briefly appeared in the agency's public records library before being removed, examined the deaths of 33 people in ICE custody between September 2019 and January 2026, including deaths at Adelanto, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, which first reported the findings.

Detainees and immigrant rights groups have increasingly challenged conditions at Adelanto in court and through protests such as hunger strikes.

In January, immigrant rights groups and detainees filed a federal class action lawsuit against the federal government, which led to the court order in July.

That month, U.S. District Judge Sunshine S. Sykes granted a renewed motion for a preliminary injunction, ordering the agencies to make sweeping changes at the detention center.

Sykes said she granted the motion because the detainees were likely to succeed on claims that the government violated their constitutional and disability rights.

Beyond addressing conditions at the facility, she barred the government from placing detainees in administrative segregation unless needed for security threats or requested by a detainee. Immigrant advocacy groups said the practice continues. The monitor's report said the government was complying with that order.

To ensure compliance, Sykes ordered ICE to provide access to “two qualified, independent, third-party monitors for the duration of this litigation or until terminated by court order,” according to the court order.

"The court was crystal clear in issuing its order, finding that ICE is not meeting its bare minimum obligations to keep the human beings in its custody safe. Rather than complying with the injunction, ICE is now thumbing its nose at the justice system and the American public by failing to follow numerous requirements, including things as basic as providing clean water," said Angelica Salas, executive director of Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, a co-counsel in the lawsuit.

“A government that is actually meeting its constitutional obligations has no reason to fear public scrutiny,” said Alvaro M. Huerta, director of litigation and advocacy at the Immigrant Defenders Law Center, also a co-counsel in the lawsuit. “Just last week another person died while in ICE custody, bringing the death toll to a record-breaking 58 people under the current administration. ICE must immediately comply with the court’s orders. Human lives are at stake.”

This week, amid extreme heat, dozens of clergy members from different faith groups completed a 96-mile pilgrimage from the Adelanto facility to L.A. and called for an end to what they say are cruel immigration policies and for the closure of all detention centers.

The Rev. Canon Jaime Edwards-Acton of St. Stephen's Hollywood said the pilgrimage was to bring awareness about the people who have died at Adelanto and other facilities.

“We are walking 96 miles, so those names are spoken somewhere other than a court filing,” Edwards-Acton said. “And because nearly 2,000 people are still inside who have not died, and whose lives are still ours to fight for.”

Audio leak scandal changed L.A. for the better

KEVIN DE LEÓN, then a City Council member, returns to chambers Dec. 9, 2022, after a two-month absence in wake of the audio leak.
Myung J. Chun Los Angeles Times

[Arellano, from B1] president of the City Council and head of the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor, respectively, quickly resigned for their roles in the racist, homophobic drivel on the recording. Cedillo — who was finishing out his term — and Councilmember Kevin de León refused to step down, besmirching their well-earned reputations as progressive lions.

The L.A. they sought to create — where Latinos ascend at the expense of the Black community, and anyone who gets in the way is crushed — never came to be. And the recording that exposed their machinations ultimately destroyed the type of ethnic politicking that made the careers of too many self-serving power grabbers, including this quartet.

The transcript of their back-and-forth now reads as prophecy — and we're far better for it.

Much of the discussion, which happened in October 2021 at the headquarters of the L.A. County Federation of Labor, was devoted to whining that L.A.'s Latino-majority council districts, and some cities elsewhere in the county, were represented by Black leaders instead of Latinos, even as Latino residents far outnumbered Black ones.

“F—, the way I see it, all of the seats are Latino,” said Herrera, who hailed the rise of a “little Latino caucus of our ... own” that he felt should reign permanently.

He and the others predicted a future in which vengeful Black politicians would try to sabotage future Latino leaders on their way out of office, creating “poor Latino districts with nothing,” as Martinez put it.

She was referring to redistricting proposals that would chop off assets such as the Coliseum and Exposition Park from South L.A.'s District 9 — the most Latino district in the city, represented by a Black council member, Curren Price.

“So they f—a future Latino for CD 9,” De León whined. “That’s how arrogant, just how arrogant it is.”

That's not what ended up happening.

District 9 didn't lose any assets. Black leaders saw the writing on the wall and didn't run a serious Black candidate to replace the termed-out Price this year.

That created space for two Latinos — Estuardo Mazariegos and Jose Ugarte — to make it to the general election. No matter which candidate wins in November, the City Council will have fewer than three Black members for the first time in 63 years.

Both Mazariegos and Ugarte say that the anti-Black scheming of the audio leak villains inspired them to run campaigns focusing on Black and Latino residents as one constituency, reflecting how life is actually lived in South L.A., not how Latinos from elsewhere in the city imagine it to be.

Mazariegos attended the first City Council meeting after The Times dropped the audio leak bombshell in October 2022. He remembers Cedillo peeking at the angry audience and temporarily returning to the council's back room.

“No community should have to lose power for another to gain it,” said Mazariegos, who would become the first Central American immigrant to serve on the council if he were to win. “Our power

grows when we build it together."

Ugarte, formerly one of Price's top aides, agreed. He argued that the best way to lead in South L.A. as a Latino council member is “with respect for those who came before us, the humility to listen to those doing the work today, and the understanding that District 9 is strongest when [Black and Latino residents] move forward together.”

Born in Oaxaca, Mexico, Ugarte would become L.A.'s first Indigenous council member if he wins. That would be a rich coda to the audio leak, considering that Oaxacans received some of the nastiest insults. Martinez described them as "little short dark people" who were feos — ugly. Cedillo joked that they were "little ones," while Herrera cracked that they were "indios."

Who's laughing now?

The Feos Four also spent time kvetching about Nithya Raman, who was finishing her first year on the council. In 2020, she had upset an incumbent to become the first democratic socialist council member.

At the time of the recording, rivals were trying to diminish Raman's power by drawing boundaries that would put her district "in the blender and chop [it] up, left and right," as De León described it.

“She’s not our ally,” Cedillo said. “She’s not going to help us. Her district is not a district we can count on.”

Give credit to Cedillo and his pendejo pals: They were already seeing Raman and other democratic socialists as an emerging force, even while downplaying the Democratic Socialists of America's chances. De León said that Raman's politics were "about just her as an individual." Herrera dismissed Hugo Soto-Martínez, then a no-name union organizer aiming to unseat Councilmember Mitch O'Farrell, as a "kid." Nury Martinez blithely mispronounced Eunisses Hernandez's name while cackling about the first-time candidate's challenge to Cedillo.

If Cedillo and De León weren't so convinced of their own political immortality, they could have helped

check the DSA's rise that has so vexed L.A.'s liberal leaders. Instead, Hernandez beat Cedillo in a shocking upset in 2022, while Soto-Martínez won in the fall. And fellow democratic socialist Ysabel Jurado took out De León in 2024.

Those triumphs paved the path for DSA-LA-backed candidate Marissa Roy to make a strong run for city attorney this year. Mazariegos is also endorsed by DSA-LA, which is backing Raman for mayor against incumbent Karen Bass.

The group should send Cedillo and De León bouquets of red roses as gracias for assisting their ascendancy. All of us owe the foursome a thanks for hastening the demise of the old Latino political machines that birthed them and kept the city stuck in tribalism for too long.

Now, Latino politicians must run on their bona fides for all Angelenos, instead of just their latinidad. Soto-Martínez and Hernandez won reelection outright in the June primary because their constituents appreciated their sewer socialism

approach, focusing on quality-of-life issues instead of ideological revolution. Meanwhile, Chicanosauruses are wheezing with diminished power as they urge Latinos to back Bass. The message doesn't seem to be landing: A recent Berkeley IGS/Times poll found that 45% of Latino voters favored Raman to Bass' 21%, with 34% undecided.

Gone are the days when Latino voters blindly believed Latino leaders. Why bother, after Martinez and her crew proved the folly of ethnic politics?

Near the start of the recording, Martinez complained that voters and the media always seemed to forgive Black politicians caught up in scandal, while Latinos didn't get the same treatment.

“They’re never done,” she complained. “They never close a chapter on us.”

L.A. did close the chapter. Now, the Feos Four's only legacy is "that colossal wreck" of their conversation, to quote the finale of "Ozymandias," left to rot forever.

Hilton's shameful attack

[Chabria, from B1] handle the “bad” ones. Here’s where all that gets messy for me: I agree with Hilton that being born in the U.S. is a big deal, and being a citizen is a point of pride. It does matter. I also agree with Arellano that Hilton’s attack is despicable.

Somewhere between those points are truths about immigration in America at this fraught and ugly moment, and just how different California is from the rest of the country when it comes to understanding the issue — and why that matters.

California's Latinos, through numbers, history and hard work, have built political and social power on a scale that few, if any, other immigrant groups anywhere in the U.S. have managed. That unique position in the Golden State has allowed for what I call the magical realism of immigration myths to flourish, a wonderful gift to generations past and present that does not have the same widespread acceptance in other parts of this great country.

I firmly believe there is no such thing as a “true” immigration story.

Many, if not most, immigrants are leaving something painful behind — maybe it's family, maybe it's war or abuse. But carrying that burden forward with nothing more than hope to balance it, passing it on to future generations, explaining it to strangers, is too much. So immigration stories get softened over time, with trauma turning into adventure and hard facts blurred into entertaining myths.

That doesn't make the tellers liars. It makes them human.

In the case of my father's myth, he would have told you that his journey to America started with Humphrey Bogart. As a teen, he'd cut school to watch black-and-white movies such as "Casablanca" in a theater in Ahmedabad in northern India, so long ago that there was an intermission to change the film reels. Enamored of white tuxedos and cool blonds, he started applying to scholarships for college in America — eventually winning a full ride at a Utah school for his skiing acumen, a sport for which he claimed great skill but in reality had never tried.

My aunts and uncles variously dispute or embrace this tale, which my father loved to tell. I don't know how true it is, but I do know this: My father's journey to the U.S. did not begin with Bogart. It began in the city of Karachi, which was in India until the British drew a line on the map and created Pakistan. War broke out, with Hindus killing Muslims and Muslims killing Hindus. My father, a kid, got lost in a crowd with his grandfather. He watched as a mob killed his grandpa, then escaped by himself walking hundreds of miles to safety. He was eventually reunited with his family in a refugee camp, but his India was gone forever.

In its place, he dreamed of Bogart's America. And when he finally got here, he buried his past under the Utah snow, became such a good skier he was on ski patrol, and didn't mention his grandpa for nearly 35 years.

Like nearly every child of an immigrant, I love both the truth and the myth of my dad because combined they are the story of my family and of America. But my father was Indian and

GINA FERAZZI Los Angeles Times

eventually settled in Ohio, much different than California. There was no larger Indian community back then (though it's grown significantly, including dozens of family members who followed my father), and little tolerance for anything but assimilation. That was fine by my father. He wanted nothing more than to be American — though he would remain a green card holder for decades, until fear under the first Trump administration pushed him to get citizenship.

Just as for Becerra's dad, being an immigrant was a state of mind for mine, an experience, not an official status. Had my dad been in California, maybe he would have kept more of his Indian identity. Had Becerra's dad been in Ohio, maybe he would have kept less of his past.

Neither viewpoint made either man more or less American — but the different myths these two men told about who they were define the difference between California and the rest of the country.

Hilton's attack on Becerra's dad was never meant for a California audience, where the Latino experience of fluidity in geography and identity holds center stage. It was always meant for places such as Ohio, and Fox News, where the expectation of assimilation still reigns supreme (just ask the Haitians of Springfield) and where Hilton's media audience — and his future — resides after he loses in November, which he almost certainly will. Hilton, after all, was the host of his own conservative television show for years.

What seems like an out-of-touch attack by Hilton on brown immigrants in California is actually thoughtful pandering to his people —

the right-wing Americans who prefer “good,” deferential, grateful immigrants (like Hilton himself) over the confident California Latinos who take pride in every part of their identity.

Sorry, California Latinos, but this MAGA moment in immigration has nothing to do with criminal records or even legal status. It's all about attitude, and MAGA hates that you have so much of it. Hilton's attack hits the target with his right-wing crowd because, to them, not centering his father's U.S. citizenship is a rejection of the United States, a treachery they not-so-secretly fear all immigrants share.

And here's the twist — MAGA is right; immigrants are complicated.

My dad may have been one of the “good” immigrants, embracing all things American and quiet about his past. But he always held deep pride in his family and his origins, and he passed that on — as do so many of the other “good” immigrants.

It's possible, common even, to fully embrace being American while also valuing the myths and truths of immigration. It's possible to love this country while also keeping another one in your heart, loudly or quietly. There is no one immigrant experience, no one way to be a real American. Hilton, an immigrant and the son of immigrants, surely knows this.

But where immigrants see complexity, MAGA followers see only perfidy, disloyalty, and that makes them afraid and angry — and ripe for the exploitation of those emotions by someone who can sugarcoat it, twist it, just enough to seem reasonable.

And Hilton is excellent at seeming reasonable.

Skiers hyped for El Niño, but epic snow not certain

[Snow, from B1]

term risks to their hobby and the multibillion-dollar industry it sustains.

All of which fuels the urge for resorts and an ever-growing legion of mountain lifestyle influencers to sell El Niño like it's El Savior.

Things grew to such a fever pitch, even Powder Magazine, a publication that depends on ski industry advertisers, recently pumped the brakes with the headline, "Skiers beware, the El Niño hype train has officially left the station."

In fact, the historical record is pretty slushy.

Best year for snow was during La Niña

Two of the last three so-called Super El Niños — when the surface temperature of the water in the eastern and central Pacific Ocean rises exceptionally high and produces powerful storms — resulted in disappointing snowfall in California's High Sierra.

The most recent one in 2015-16 — dubbed “Godzilla” — generated the hoped-for storms but they veered off course, dumping rain on the Pacific Northwest instead of snow in California.

And the best year on record? When the snowpack in the southern Sierra reached a record-shattering 300% of average and a June ascent of Mt. Whitney looked more like an Everest expedition than a California hike?

That was during a three-year La Niña — the opposite of El Niño — when Pacific Ocean temperatures were unusually cold.

HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19). Fates favor your focus on one key partnership, and all you have to do is dare to ask for what you want.

Taurus (April 20-May 20). The wishing phase is over, and you can skip the waiting phase altogether. Now you can make your lists and start checking off the small actions.

Gemini (May 21-June 21). It's like the cosmic breeze has blown the dust off an old favorite, and you're inspired to take it out for a spin.

Cancer (June 22-July 22). You've longed for relationships to settle into a place where you don't feel pressured. It's naturally happening.

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE

BRIDGE

BY FRANK STEWART

John Morton, King Henry VII's treasurer, believed that if a man lived well, he had much money to give, and if he lived frugally, he must have money stashed. That was "Morton's Fork."

Morton's name lives on in the “Morton's Fork Coup”: You force an opponent to play in a position where he has only losing options.

At today's four spades, West leads the ace and queen of diamonds, hoping to build a second diamond trick. South counts nine tricks — six trumps, a diamond, two clubs — and sees that he can always succeed if he guesses which defender has the ace of clubs. He plays a low diamond from dummy at Trick Two, deferring a dis-

ASKING ERIC

Dear Eric: My father died and I held a small memorial service for him. It was traumatic as my dad was not a great guy.

I was confronted at the ceremony by my half sister, whom I did not recognize as I hadn't seen her for 43 years.

She came to the funeral to make sure her father was dead and to confront me about her mother (my step-mother).

My stepmother took out her anger and frustration with her husband on me. She slapped me often and was not kind.

At the funeral my half sister told me that I was emotionally disturbed and that my memories of being slapped were lies. I'm livid.

My stepmother died shortly after and so I sent a huge bouquet and a card. I then went through a storage unit and found many pics of my stepmother (tasteful, lovely portraits), and I sent them to my half sister.

I'm so angry my half sister came to the funeral of a man she hated to set me straight. I wanted to write her a letter telling her what my perspective was. I found obscenely pornographic images of their mother also which I did not include in my thoughtful gift. Now I feel like sending them to her. The saintly mother was not so saintly. I'm having a lot of angry thoughts. Any ideas?

A THOUSAND WORDS card on the ace, and ruffs in his hand.

If South places the ace of clubs with West, he can next lead his four of clubs. If West grabs the ace, South wins a third club trick; if West plays low, dummy's king wins, and South discards the queen of clubs on the king of diamonds and loses in all two hearts and one diamond.

If declarer thinks East has the ace of clubs, South can lead a trump to dummy and return the three of clubs for the same effect.

Is South's play a guess?

West, who didn't open the bidding, has shown the A-Q-J of diamonds and surely has another ace for his double. If West has the ace of clubs, South will succeed since East will have the ace of hearts. The danger is that West has the ace of hearts.

Dear Words: Throw the photos away. Sending them is not going to make you feel better, nor is it going to heal the harm that was done to you as a child.

There was a lot of trauma that surrounded your upbringing and that's not your fault. It's not fair that your half sister came to the funeral seemingly only to chastise you. From your telling, it seems that wasn't really about you. And it might be helpful to start to think of many aspects of your family as not really about you.

© 2026 Tribune Content Agency

Your half siblings had their own relationship with their mother and have signed on to whatever narrative they believe. It doesn't seem to be fully working for them as your sister felt the need to approach you after 43 years to correct your narrative. That's not something you can change or impact, even with a letter.

Writing her a letter might be helpful but write a few drafts first. You may find that the process of writing is actually the thing you need rather than sending of it.

Dear Eric: My daughter is happily married with two beautiful children. My son-in-law is one of five children.

Recently my son-in-law accidentally discovered that he is excluded from his mom's will.

His dad died six months before their wedding. There

If South leads the first club from dummy, you can stick a fork in the defense.

has never been any conflict or circumstance that would initiate such a hurtful and shocking decision.

Although his mother lives nearby she shows little to no interest in her grandchildren. My daughter and son-in-law have always made the effort to include her in holidays, birthdays, etc.

He cannot unsee or comprehend what he now knows regarding her will. Should he tell her and ask her why before it's too late?

LEFT OUT

Dear Left Out: Yes, he should, if only to get clarity that he wouldn't be able to get after she dies.

His goal shouldn't be to convince her to revise her will. His goal should be to understand, as best he can, where his mother is coming from and to determine whether there is some blockage or offense in their relationship of which he isn't aware.

He could begin the conversation by saying something simple like, "I accidentally saw this document and the fact that I'm not mentioned seems to send a message to me. Is that a message you're intending to send and, if so, can we take this time to talk it through so that I understand?"

CSC probes possible rules violations

WIRE REPORTS

The College Sports Commission is looking into possible rules violations at between five and 10 Power Four conference schools regarding payments to players.

According to CBS Sports, which first reported the existence of the queries, the questions involve potential violations of the \$21.5 million per school spending cap that schools can share with players, along with third-party payments to players that allow them to circumvent the cap.

The CSC had asked questions at between five and 10 schools, though that does not confirm a full-scale investigation is taking place, a person familiar with the investigation process told the Associated Press on Friday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the cases have not been publicly disclosed.

Among the CSC's main functions is to monitor third-party deals with so-called “associated entities” — people and companies that do business with their respective schools — to make sure they are fairly valued and that they have a valid business purpose.

With athletic departments using third-party NIL to circumvent the cap, some schools are reported to be spending up to \$50 million on their football rosters this year.

CBS Sports based its reporting on multiple unidentified sources, along with public records requests. It did not name the schools under investigation, nor did the person who spoke to AP.

Djokovic falls in Shanghai event

Novak Djokovic went from triumph in Beijing to a shock in Shanghai after a straight-sets loss to Hubert Hurkacz.

The 24-time Grand Slam winner was beaten 6-4, 6-3 in a second-round match that lasted 87 minutes.

Earlier at the Shanghai Masters, U.S. Open runner-up Ben Shelton celebrated his 24th birthday by advancing with a victory against Daniel Altmaier and top-seeded Alexander Zverev also progressed. Shelton was a 6-3, 7-6 (6) winner against Altmaier. But Djokovic's exit was the big story, coming after his victory in the China Open earlier this week, his 102nd career title.

"Beijing was great and a very early exit here but it is OK," Djokovic said. "I had a great week in Beijing and I look forward to resting a little bit and get ready for the indoors."

Elise Mertens beat Iga Swiatek 7-6 (0), 6-3 to book her place in the semifinals of the China Open. Mertens' run has now seen her beat three Grand Slam winners in Beijing, following victories against Jelena Ostapenko and Coco Gauff. She took 1 hour and 50 minutes to see off six-time Grand Slam winner and No.8-seed Swiatek in straight sets. "Sometimes you just grow into a tournament," said Mertens, who is through to her first WTA 1000 singles semifinal since 2021.

Max Verstappen snatched pole position for the Formula One Singapore sprint race in a hectic qualifying session while George Russell seized a chance to make up ground on standings leader Kimi Antonelli. Verstappen went fastest by 0.120 of a second from Russell.

Florida veteran forward Brad Marchand will need six weeks to recover from his left leg injury and should be able to resume play with the Panthers sometime in November, coach Paul Maurice confirmed. ... Defenseman Matt Dumba, 32, said he is retiring after 13 NHL seasons with five teams. Dumba last played for the Pittsburgh Penguins, with stints in Minnesota, Dallas, Arizona and Tampa Bay.

Breanna Stewart and the New York Liberty are moving on from Game 2 and the confusion of whether they had a timeout in the waning seconds of overtime. The Liberty star knows that it won't do any good to dwell on the discrepancy between her discussion with the officials and what they said in a pool report to reporters. "I really don't want to talk much about this, my main focus is Game 3, but what I will say is you want to have respect between players and refs in order to have respect you need to build trust," Stewart said. ... Former Laker LeBron James, who joined Philadelphia this summer as a free agent for his NBA-record 24th season, had 10 points, five assists and four rebounds in his 76ers debut, a 118-104 pre-season loss to Miami.

Keith Mitchell shot a six-under 65 to share the top of the leaderboard at the PGA's Baycurrent Classic with first-round leader Jacob Bridgeman. Bridgeman finished with a 68 on a sunny day to go with his opening 63 at the Yokohama Country Club in Kanagawa, Japan. Grant Forrest began with a bogey, but finished the second round strong with six birdies to grab a one-stroke lead in the Spanish Open in Madrid. Forrest had a four-under 67 to lead Joel Girrbach and Connor Syme. In Champions, Ryan Amour shot a nine-under 63 to open a one-shot first-round lead over Paul Goydos and Rod Pampling in Constellation Furyk and Friends at Hammock Beach Resort in Palm Coast, Fla.

USC REPORT

Trojans seek poise amid pressure at Penn State

BY JORDAN PUENTE

No. 19 USC has a better record, a national ranking and more talent than Penn State.

And yet the Nittany Lions (3-2, 0-2 Big Ten) are favored to win by $1\frac{1}{2}$ points when the Trojans (5-1, 2-1) visit Happy Valley on Saturday (4:30 p.m. PDT) for a “white-out” game expected to draw more than 109,000 fans.

Why?

The Trojans entered the season expected to make the College Football Playoff for the first time during Lincoln Riley's tenure but have struggled to handle pressure.

Freshman defensive end Luke Wafle said the Trojans are prepared for the electric crowd, using their new state-of-the-art sound system to blast noise that made it difficult to hear during practice.

“That speaker gets loud,” Wafle said. “You can hear it across campus. It scared me the first time they were doing sound checks. I was walking out of my class.”

He said coaches have been giving defensive players tips on how to deal with fan noise.

Linebacker Ta'Mere Robinson transferred from Penn State to USC and has experience playing in Happy Valley at peak volume. He said communication is key to leaving with a win.

“Everybody’s eyes will have to be right,” Robinson said. “We got the speakers all the way up, so we are ready and prepared for that.”

USC never has won at Penn State, losing 21-20 in 1993 and 38-14 in 1994.

The Trojans have to do more than navigate crowd noise to post their first vic-

tory there.

Battle of the flags

Penalties rank high on USC's list of problems. The Trojans were called for nine last week against Washington that cost them 94 yards, including an illegal formation penalty that helped the Huskies score on a long touchdown pass.

After the comeback win, Riley said the Trojans have to show more discipline.

“That’s got to get better,” he said.

USC ranks 82nd nationally with 6.83 penalties per game. There were bound to be some mistakes while featuring freshmen who were members of the No.1 recruiting class, but the penalties have come at terrible moments for USC — extending opponents' drives and crushing the Trojans' push to reach the end zone.

Defensive pressure

Gary Patterson directed the defense from the press box last week after operating on the sideline to start the season.

It is one of many efforts the Trojans have made to improve their communication, speed and execution on defense.

Tackle Jahkeem Stewart said no team opens the season executing perfectly, but he expects improvement against Penn State.

“We are slowly starting to be where we want to be,” Stewart said. “We play connected, and I feel we must play as connected going into this weekend.”

Patterson, a Hall of Fame coach known for stout defenses, was supposed to help Riley address the Trojans' biggest weakness, but the turnaround hasn't been swift or smooth.

However, many aspects of the defense enjoyed breakthroughs against Washington, with USC recording a season-high five sacks after having just eight through its first five games.

Stewart said that playing free will help the defense build on its success.

“Especially as a D-line, the big word was play free and play together,” Stewart said. “We aren’t where we want to be, especially as a D-line. We want to be one of the best D-lines in the country at the end of the season.”

Stewart said it's been great to see Patterson, who coached at Texas Christian for 22 seasons, trust his defensive linemen to make plays.

"[Patterson] is a great coach," Stewart said. "He's a hard worker, and us just feeding off his work, we are going to do great things."

Maiava embraces the challenge

The best way for the Trojans to limit the impact of a hostile crowd is to play well on offense. Quarterback Jayden Maiava has adapted to different groups of receivers each game and will have to run the offense with confidence under pressure.

“Coach [Dennis] Simmons has done a great job of getting the guys ready,” Maiava said, noting the receivers group has coped with injuries. “Next-man-up mentality, and we’re all bought into the same goal that we just want to win.”

Maiava, who had his fewest yards (245) and touchdown passes (one) of the season against Washington, knows he needs to play well against Penn State.

“Definitely bringing the energy,” he said.

Dukes' loss to Ducks fresh in many minds

[UCLA, from B12] new environment."

Aside from the national rankings, the long history between these former Pac-12 rivals and both teams' chances to contend for the College Football Playoff, the memory of Oregon knocking James Madison out of the Dukes' first playoff appearance last December remains fresh for many of their players and assistants who followed coach Bob Chesney to the Bruins.

And the 51 points and 514 total yards the Ducks garnered against Hitschler's defense left a chip on his shoulder.

“We’re going to continue to be aggressive and continue to find a way to create opportunities for our offense to get the ball in a positive field position,” Hitschler said. “But we got to be on top of our game because they will make you pay no matter who it is at quarterback. They are going to make you pay for your mistakes, and they’re going to find a way to create the explosives they always have, and we got to limit them.”

Although Oregon quarterback Dante Moore — who tallied 313 passing yards and five total touchdowns against Hitschler's defense in the playoff — was ruled out for Saturday because of a head injury suffered against USC on Sep. 26, the Ducks' Dylan Raiola is not a typical backup.

He threw for 4,819 yards and 31 touchdowns in two years as Nebraska's starter, then went 11 for 11 with three touchdown passes in his

Ducks debut before stepping up with 289 yards and two touchdown passes after replacing Moore in a 41-27 win over USC at the Coliseum.

"When you watch him come in and complete that game and do what he did, there's not a giant drop-off between the two of those guys. They're both really, really good," Chesney said. "Dylan obviously had a chance at the end of that USC game to really put himself in position to gain confidence in his teammates and teammates to gain confidence in him, and I thought he was on time. I thought he was accurate. He let those guys compete for footballs, and I'm sure there's a lot of buy-in in that program right now in him."

While Raiola is a proven passer, his impact is amplified by the weapons around him. In the backfield, Hitschler touted Dierre Hill Jr. and Jordon Davison as the best running back duo in the country. While the Bruins have gone toe-to-toe with formidable tailbacks thus far, they have yet to face a one-two punch like Hill and Davison, which could pose problems for an otherwise staunch run defense.

Raiola's arsenal includes potent pass catchers, particularly the Ducks' top two wideouts, Dakorien Moore and Evan Stewart, who have combined for 512 yards and seven touchdowns.

Chesney tabbed Stewart as a matchup “nightmare,” adding that Oregon is going to get him the ball in a multitude of ways by utilizing him in the slot and creating mismatches for Hitschler's defense. Chesney also said that Dakorien Moore's extreme speed allows him to take the top off the defense, and that the Ducks will not be afraid to take shots downfield, testing the Bruins' secondary.

And if the Bruins let emotions get the best of them, like they did against Purdue — when quarterback Ryan Browne threw for 378 yards and two touchdowns — then it may be a long day for Hitschler's secondary.

The Bruins' biggest headache could be 6-foot-5 tight end Jamari Johnson, who caught seven passes for 159 yards against USC, particularly with all three of UCLA's starting cornerbacks shorter than 6 feet.

"The tight end we faced last year, and he's special. They do a really good job of getting into different personnel packages, and then if you go to a bigger group, they're going to spread you out. They're going to try to find a matchup with that tight end," Chesney said. "He can catch everything in his general vicinity; he's absolutely phenomenal."

With an explosive Ducks offense set to perform in the friendly confines of Autzen Stadium, the Bruins trusting the playbook may be most important.

“Football is football no matter where we are,” fifth-year offensive lineman Hall Schmidt said. “We don’t have a magic potion for Oregon, but we definitely have ourselves, and we have the tools that we’re going to use.”

Doncic and Reaves show why they click in Lakers' win

By Broderick Turner

The bond between Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves is as real as it gets.

And though it was just a preseason game Thursday night, Doncic and Reaves showed why they form one of the most dynamic back-courts in the NBA.

The Lakers duo linked up on the first play against the Sacramento Kings, with Reaves passing to Doncic as he cut to the basket before scoring while being fouled.

Both played 25 minutes, with Doncic scoring 23 points on six-for-16 shooting during the Lakers' 114-110 win at Crypto.com Arena. Reaves, who played in his first preseason game after missing the first two, had eight points on two-for-seven shooting, eight assists and five rebounds.

Both Doncic and Reaves gave the fans something to be excited about. Doncic's moment came in the second quarter when he drilled a 31-foot, one-legged three-pointer off a pass from Sandro Mamukelashvili, who contributed 19 points.

Reaves' moment came late in the second quarter when he had a nice hesitation move that froze defender Emanuel Sharp, allowing Reaves to waltz along the baseline for a layup.

Lakers coach JJ Redick explained why Doncic and Reaves have been so close in their time playing together.

"There's good chemistry with each other," Redick said. "I think it's just the natural way they like each other. They like playing together. I think having them together means there's automatically two ballhandlers on the court. I think that's like an underrated part of the NBA now ... having two to three ballhandlers on the floor at all times."

Even Doncic's chatter was in midseason form, as he picked up a technical foul with 6 minutes 48 seconds left in the third quarter.

Etc.

Center Walker Kessler (finger) and guard Collin Sexton (lower body) both missed their third straight preseason game, while forward Ziaire Williams (undisclosed) missed his second straight. Cameron Carr (lower body), Dalton Knecht (undisclosed) and Arthur Kaluma (lower body) also didn't play. Kessler, the Lakers' big acquisition from the Utah Jazz, has been nursing a finger injury he sustained after hitting the backboard during practice. "We've got to check in tomorrow. ... It's not concerning. He'll play in the preseason," Redick said. Redick said Williams had "some soreness, but it's not anything that we're concerned about." ... The Lakers signed 6-foot-10 forward Rafael Castro, then waived forward William Kyle III.

Guardians stay alive, go back to Williams

WIRE REPORTS

Facing elimination for the second consecutive day, José Ramírez and the Cleveland Guardians responded once again.

“What this team is doing is only what we know how to do,” the All-Star third baseman said.

Ramírez homered and drove in three runs, and Cleveland beat the Chicago White Sox 9-5 on Thursday night to send their American League Division Series to a decisive Game 5 on Saturday. The winner plays the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday to start the ALCS.

Patrick Bailey also went deep and Game 2 starter Gavin Williams came out of the bullpen to get the last three outs as the Guardians won in Chicago for the second straight day after beginning their postseason with two losses at home. Jo Adell hit a two-run single in a six-run sixth inning for the AL Central champions.

“This team has answered all year,” manager Stephen Vogt said. “We talk about it — we punch back.”

Williams will get the start for Game 5, Vogt announced Friday. While the right-hander was lined up to pitch Game 5 on usual rest, Vogt said the bullpen-heavy Game 4 was a factor.

Williams said he walked by Vogt's office after the game and told the third-year manager he was ready to go.

"The body feels good right now. I've been in the training room all morning, just figuring it out. But it's just a normal day really," said Williams, who went 14-8 during the regular season and led the AL with 248 strikeouts.

Cleveland is looking to become the first club to come back from a 2-0 deficit in a best-of-five playoff series since the 20ff New York Yankees against, well, Cleveland. Teams with a 2-0 lead in a best-off-five postseason series have gone on to win 83 of 93 times.

It's Brew Crew vs. Blue Crew again

[Dodgers, from B12]

JACOB Misiorowski, the favorite for the NL Cy Young Award, will start Game 1 of the NLCS.

"I just want chaos," said Friedman, the Dodgers' president of baseball operations.

Later that night, the Brewers advanced, locking in a rematch that certainly could deliver chaos.

The Dodgers and Brewers are meeting in the playoffs for the fourth time in nine years. Last season, the Dodgers swept Milwaukee in the NLCS.

Usually before playing a big-market team like the Dodgers, Brewers manager Pat Murphy leans into the underdog narrative by saying he suspects the opponent can't name many of his players. But by becoming perennial playoff contenders, and posting the best record in the majors over the last two seasons, the Brewers have given up whatever anonymity they may have had when they promoted Murphy a few years ago.

Even after trading away top pitcher Freddy Peralta, Milwaukee is a more complete team than last season.

Losing talented players hasn't stopped the Brewers from winning the last four NL Central titles. They keep saying goodbye to top players — including Cy Young winner Corbin Burnes, closer Devin Williams and shortstop Willy Adames — then raise their win total.

Many of the players remain the same, although the Brewers added former Dodgers pitcher Dustin May and reliever JoJo Romero in a trade with St. Louis at the deadline, after losing in the Tarik Skubal sweepstakes. Several players also took important steps forward.

The biggest difference-maker has been Jacob Misiorowski, who had the lowest earned-run average (1.80) in the majors this season and is the favorite for the NL Cy Young Award. As a rookie last year, the flamethrowing right-hander was relegated to the bullpen in the postseason until the NLCS. This year, he started Game 1 in the division series and he'll start Game 1 of the NLCS. The Dodgers will start

Skubal in Game 1 and Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 2 of the NLCS, manager Dave Roberts said Friday.

The Brewers have long hung their hat on playing sound baseball, from pitching and defense to baserunning. But the knock on them has been the lack of thump in their lineup.

No matter. First baseman Jake Bauers had a career season, leading the team in home runs (26), on-base percentage (.389) and on-base-plus-slugging percentage (.873). Jackson Chourio, who was hobbled by a hamstring injury in the last NLCS, hit a career-high 25 home runs and led the team in slugging percentage (.487). And though the Brewers likely won't outslug the Dodgers — they hit 50 fewer home runs this season — they have a pesky roster that stole

90 more bases. The Brewers also had a better record (103-59) than the Dodgers (100-62), so the series will begin in Milwaukee on Sunday. Signs point to a more competitive series than last year. The Brewers even entered the postseason with better World Series odds (18.5%) than the Dodgers (16.7%), according to Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA standings.

The Dodgers certainly won't take the matchup lightly. They made sure not to underestimate the No. 3-seed Braves.

"The mistake that the outside perspective kind of gets sometimes is to underestimate certain teams," playoff veteran Kiké Hernández said as the Dodgers celebrated their NLDS victory. "And we knew we had a tough task ahead of us. [The Braves are] a team that was playing really good baseball, had a lot of momentum, and they were throwing the ball really well. They had a really good bullpen, a lot of different kinds of arms, and, fortunately for us, they were a little bit short on starting pitching, so they had to tax their bullpen to a point where it paid off for us."

The Dodgers ended the series before it returned to Los Angeles for an if-necessary Game 5. So they got to turn their attention to the Brewers a couple of days early.

"The strength of our team is our rotation," Friedman said. "And so even if we weren't able to reset it, we still feel like it would be a strength of ours. But to be able to line it up the way we want to, certainly advantageous. To be able to have a few days off our feet and rest up for Sunday, also really helpful."

Then the chaos begins.

Surging Brewers seek franchise's first title

GENE J. PUSKAR Associated Press
BRICE TURANG scores one of his 102 runs in the regular season. The Corona product also led Milwaukee in hits and RBIs.

[Brewers, from B12]

was baseball's winningest team last season but couldn't get by the Dodgers, who have never lost a playoff series to the Brewers.

Here are nine things to know about the Brewers heading into Game 1 of the NL Championship Series with the Dodgers on Sunday.

Dome sweet home

No team in baseball was better at home than the Brewers, who won 55 times beneath the retractable roof at American Family Field, where the home-field advantage includes more than just batting last: in the opening game of the division series, the Padres lost a go-ahead homer when Ty France's ninth-inning fly ball hit a roof cable and dropped into Jackson Chourio's glove for the second out.

And that's bad news for the Dodgers since the series opens with two games in Milwaukee, where the Brewers have lost just once since Aug. 30, including playoffs. Milwaukee pitchers had the majors' best team ERA (3.17) and lowest opponents' batting average (.213) at home during the regular season while its hitters had the highest average (.270) and scored the most runs (447) at home.

The Brewers batted 23 points higher in Milwaukee, where they hit nearly two-third of their homers and scored 62 more runs.

Familiar foes

The Dodgers and Brewers are meeting in the postseason for the fourth time — all since 2018. The Dodgers swept last fall's NLCS and a 2020 wild-card series.

The 2018 NLCS was a little closer, with the Dodgers rallying to win Game 7 on homers from Cody Bellinger and Yasiel Puig, advancing to a World Series where they were thumped by the Boston Red Sox.

Fast company

Cy Young favorite Jacob Misiorowski led the majors in ERA (1.80) and strikeouts (252 in 174 $^{2/3}$ innings), had the lowest WHIP (0.80) and was second in the National League with 16 wins. He's also the only pitcher in history to throw more than 1,000 pitches at 100 mph or faster in his career — and he did it all in one season, hitting 100 or more 1,000 times in 2026, topping out at 105.5 mph in a June start against the Cubs.

Plus he's 13-1 at home, including the postseason, and 2-1 against the Dodgers in his short career. Only two Dodgers starters who have faced Misiorowski more than twice (Shohei Ohtani, .286 and Teoscar Hernández, .250) are hitting better than .167 against the right-hander in the regular season, although the Dodgers did beat him in Game 3 of the NLCS last fall.

Brice is nice

If Misiorowski is the ace of Milwaukee's pitching staff, the offense runs through former Corona Santiago High star Brice Turang, who is one of just three major leaguers to score at least 102 runs and drive in 100 in the regular season. He also led the Brewers in hits (156), doubles (37), RBIs (100) and slashed a career-best .268/.366/.450. He topped 20 homers for the first time in his career too.

A first-round pick in the 2018 draft, Turang is also a splendid fielder, winning a Gold Glove in 2024 and leading the NL in defensive wins above replacement this season, making just six errors while turning a league-best 91 double plays at second base. Both of Turang's parents were star athletes, with his father, Brian, playing two seasons with the Seattle Mariners while his mother Carrie, a softball outfielder and pitcher, played twice in the Women's College World Series for Long Beach State.

More where that came from

The offense doesn't stop with the left-hand-hitting Turang. Two other Brewers (outfielder Chourio and first baseman Jake Bauers) scored more than 90 runs and Bauers and catcher William Contreras topped 85 RBIs.

The patient Brewers made opposing pitchers work since no team saw more pitches per plate appearance than Milwaukee, which was second in the majors in walks, averaging 4.1 a game. The Brewers were good in high-leverage situations too, slashing an MLB-best .276./.363/.435 with runners in scoring position.

Well-armed and dangerous

Misiorowski was the only Brewers pitcher to make the NL All-Star team this summer, but he's hardly the team's only star pitcher. Starters Kyle Harrison and Logan Henderson both won 11 games with

Henderson posting a 2.47 ERA in 18 starts.

Milwaukee's staff ERA of 3.51 was best in the National League — 0.04 better than the Dodgers — and its 1,544 strikeouts were second-best. Only the Dodgers held opponents to a lower batting average than the Brewers'.218.

In the bullpen, closer Trevor Megill saved 30 games in 33 chances while Aaron Ashby went 13-3 with a 3.00 ERA in 74 relief appearances and Chad Patrick was 7-3 with a 3.59 in 51 games as a reliever. In fact, Murphy got more wins from his bullpen, 48, than any manager in baseball. Milwaukee's 55 saves — in 76 opportunities — led the NL.

O Captain! My Captain!

At 34, Christian Yelich of Thousand Oaks is the oldest player on one of the youngest rosters in the majors. He's also one of the best active players who has never played in a World Series.

Yelich is a three-time All-Star, two-time batting champion, former MVP and a Gold Glove winner. What he hasn't done is win a ring. He doesn't even have a World Series appearance on his resume.

There's no question age is catching up with Yelich, who has two years left on his contract. His .235 average this season was his lowest in a full season and his 118 games played was among the fewest in his 14-year career. But his leadership remains invaluable, which is why he was named the franchise's first team captain during the final week of the regular season. Only two other current players have been so honored.

“Sometimes, leadership is caught and not taught,” Murphy said. “The way he acted, the way he carried himself, he led those young people.”

That's not to say he hasn't made huge contributions on the field. His one-out walk and stolen base in the ninth inning of Game 2 of the division series sparked Milwaukee's walk-off win.

A life well lived

Murphy is a baseball lifer who paid more dues than a union plumber before finally pulling on a big-league uniform for the first time when he was 56. Murphy pitched in the low minors for two organizations and for two independent teams before retiring to become a college coach at Maryville, Claremont-Mudd, Notre Dame and Arizona State. He also managed the Dutch national team to a European championship and a spot in the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

His big break came in 2015, when the Padres promoted him from their triple-A team in El Paso to take over for Bud Black as interim manager. A year later Craig Counsell hired him as bench coach for the Brewers, and when Counsell took the Cubs' managerial job ahead of the 2024 season, Murphy, now 67, was named his replacement.

Two-hundred and 93 regular-season wins and three playoff trips later, the baseball lifer is four wins away from the World Series, which would be the trip of a lifetime.

“I think it was just the relentless pursuit of something,” Murphy told Yahoo Sports of his long journey. “I wanted to be somebody. I wanted to be special.”

Town with just one crown

The Padres are the only major league team that's been around as long as the Brewers and has yet to win a World Series. Both teams were established in 1969, although the Brewers played their first season in Seattle as the Pilots before being acquired in bankruptcy court by a Milwaukee car dealer named Bud Selig, who moved the team to Wisconsin and renamed them the Brewers.

Selig later served 23 years as baseball commissioner but he couldn't help his Brewers, who made their only World Series appearance in 1982, losing to the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games. Milwaukee did not get back to the postseason for another quarter-century, by which time they had changed divisions twice and leagues once, jumping from the American League to the National League in 1998.

Milwaukee has celebrated a World Series title, it just wasn't won by the Brewers. The Braves, who moved to the city from Boston in 1953, won two NL pennants and beat the Yankees in the 1957 World Series behind three home runs from a 23-year-old outfielder named Hank Aaron.

The Braves moved to Atlanta nine years later, taking their trophy with them and leaving Milwaukee as the answer to a trivia question: Name the only current big-league city that has won a World Series while its current franchise has not.

THURSDAY'S RESULT

MIKE DITKA, 1939-2026

Hall of Fame tight end led Bears

[ Ditka, from B12]

'PROUD AND HEADSTRONG'
PROUD AND HEADSTRONG During his 12-year Hall of Fame playing career, Mike Ditka, making a catch against Green Bay in 1966, revolutionized the tight end position.
Associated Press

[2014, 1985] inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1988 after a 12-year playing career that featured five Pro Bowls, 427 receptions, 43 touchdowns and 5,812 receiving yards.

Ditka, who won two Super Bowls as a coach and one as a player, revolutionized the tight end position, transforming it from a primarily blocking-focused role to one that could pose a threat in receiving.

Notorious for his fiery personality, Ditka also took his stardom from field to screen, starring alongside Will Ferrell in “Kicking & Screaming,” in which he played himself. Though instead of coaching the championship-winning Bears, he helps coach a youth soccer team — but his competitive spirit remains the same. He also made several TV appearances, including in “Cheers,” “L.A. Law” and “Entourage.”

Born in Carnegie, Pa., on Oct. 18, 1939, Ditka was a first-round draft pick of the Chicago Bears in 1961. The team at the time was helmed by Bears founder, president and head coach George Halas, who later bestowed Ditka with his first NFL head coaching job in 1982.

Coming from the University of Pittsburgh, where he also played basketball and baseball and received All-America honors in football, Ditka immediately became a mainstay in the Bears' lineup, going on to start 84 straight games. He was named rookie of the year with 56 catches for 1,076 yards and 12 touchdowns, becoming the first tight end to reach 1,000 yards receiving in his rookie season.

He also earned All-NFL honors from 1961 to 1964 and made the NFL Pro Bowl five times in his first six seasons. Ditka was enshrined into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1986.

The tight end eventually became a coach, famously leading the 1985 Chicago Bears. The team, one of the best in NFL history, went 15-1 and scored 456 points while giving up just 198. The Bears had plenty of personality that year as well, audaciously recording a rap-styled video called “The Super Bowl Shuffle” that was released during the regular season.

But it was not only a strong season on paper — Ditka is credited with leading the Bears back to relevance and luster after losing records in 1980, 1981 and 1982. He built them back to a team fans adored and competitors feared.

"I think that's the way Mr. Halas always wanted it," Ditka told The Times in 1985. "He wanted to have a ballclub with a certain personality, a team made up of, you know, rough, tough guys, a team that didn't take any crap from anybody and could dish it out."

Ditka and the team brought triumph to Chicago in Super Bowl XX in New Orleans with a 46-10 win against the New England Patriots.

Winning NFL coach of the year with the '85 team, Ditka is one of only two who have won a Super Bowl as a player, assistant coach and head coach.

"I believe Mike Ditka represents us, in more ways than one," then linebacker and captain Mike Singletary told The Times. "We know he's not coaching the Chicago Bears because he needed a job. The Bears mean something to Mike Ditka. The team is part of him."

His time in Chicago wasn't all glitz and glamour, though. Ditka wasn't immediately welcomed back to the Bears as a coach, with his temper a source of strain between him and the owners. He also had a DUI conviction in 1985 and suffered a heart attack in 1988.

Throughout his tenure, he faced complaints about his hotheaded disposition and outbursts on the sideline, notably having tumultuous relationships with several players and defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan, who left after the Super Bowl-winning season to become the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. But Ditka didn't seem to have an problem embracing his reputation.

"There was a [magazine] poll of 200 NFL players who said the coaches they would least like to play for were, first, [Tom] Landry and, tied for second, Don Shula and me. I was flattered. What a great compliment," wrote Mike Ditka in his 1986 autobiography.

Ditka was entrenched in controversy, having been outspoken about Washington not changing its name from the Redskins, also facing backlash for comments he made in 2016 criticizing Colin Kaepernick and social justice protests, later apologizing.

Despite it all, his name is etched in NFL history.

“Ditka was proud and headstrong,” wrote former Times sports columnist Mike Downey. “He was common and condescending.... He did as he pleased. But he restored the reputation of the Chicago Bears, made them winners and made them watchable.”

During his playing career, he made an iconic 63-yard catch-and-run against the Steelers on Nov. 23, 1963, which stands in 69th place on NFL's 100 Greatest Plays. The highlight helped the Bears to a 17-17 tie after being down 17-14 in the fourth quarter; the team later went on to win the NFL championship.

In 1967, he was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles and then to the Dallas Cowboys in 1969. During his time with the Cowboys, Ditka made it to two Super Bowls, with a loss in 1971 and finally a win the following year in which he scored the final touchdown in a 24-3 win against the Miami Dolphins.

After retiring in 1972, Ditka joined the Cowboys as an assistant coach. He got his hands on the Super Bowl trophy once again in 1977 with the team and stayed on until joining the Chicago Bears.

The Hall of Famer's ties with Chicago were once again severed, this time with his firing in 1993 following a 5-11 season. But he refused to shed the navy and orange in the years after he went 106-62 and led the Bears to seven playoff appearances in 11 seasons.

"Yeah, I was fired by the Bears, but that's life," Ditka said during a visit to Chicago's practice field in 2013. "There has never been a time I was not a Bears fan. I have a right to be a Bears fan as much as anybody. I played on a championship team and I coached a championship team."

The Bears retired Ditka's No. 89 in 2013.

His involvement with the NFL expanded off the field as he explored TV commenting, even earning Sports Emmy nominations for outstanding sports personality in 1994 and 1996.

Ditka did have one more head coaching stint in the NFL from 1997 to 1999 with the New Orleans Saints. After two 6-10 seasons, the Saints traded all of their draft picks — plus a first-round selection in 2000 — to move up and select running back Ricky Williams. But the team went 3-13 in 1999 and Ditka was fired after the season.

He finished his coaching career 121-95 after the 15-33 stint in New Orleans.

"I've been to the top of the mountain and I've seen it," Ditka told The Times in 2004. "And I've been to the bottom of the mountain and I've seen that too. I don't want to get anywhere between them anymore."

Professional football would not see the last of him, however, as he went on to do radio and TV broadcasting for programs such as “The NFL Today,” “Monday Night Football” and “Sports-Center”. His passion for football would never fade, apparent in his launch of X Football, women’s tackle football competition league, in 2021.

And his mark on Chicago was not confined to the stadium gates; he was a partner in Ditka's Restaurant Group which first opened a steakhouse in downtown Chicago in 1997, boasting its signature dish, "Da Pork Chop." While the original location closed in 2020, there are still locations in Oakbrook, Ill., and Pittsburgh.

After a short stint living in Florida, Ditka and his wife, Diana, replanted roots in Chicago at the end of 2024.

“I was born in Pennsylvania and raised in Pittsburgh, but Chicago is my home . . . and it is my life,” Ditka told the Chicago Sun Times.

NFL REPORT

Rookie Daniels stuns Dallas

JULIO CORTEZ Associated Press
ROOKIE quarterback Jalon Daniels screams after leading Tampa Bay to a 24-16 upset of the Cowboys.

STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS

Bucky Irving already had his first 100-yard game since his rookie year in 2024 when the Tampa Bay running back finished off the Dallas Cowboys with a run that gave him a career high.

Jalon Daniels, the un-drafted rookie from Lawn-dale High filling in for franchise quarterback Baker Mayfield, enjoyed the view while doing plenty himself to get the Buccaneers their first win of the season in just his second start.

Irving ran for 165 yards, including a 72-yard run to set up the touchdown that put Tampa Bay ahead for good while scoring twice himself, and the Buccaneers beat the host Cowboys 24-16 on Thursday night.

Daniels threw a touch-down pass to Irving in the first half while directing a turnover-free offense and amid several Dallas miscues, finished 19 of 25 for 189 yards as the Buccaneers had 241 yards rushing.

Daniels is filling in for Mayfield, who's expected to be out at least one more game with a dislocated thumb on his throwing hand.

“Six months ago, if you would have told me that my first win would have been on a Thursday night, [Amazon] Prime football game, I don't know what I would have told you,” Daniels said.

“Like I keep saying, through all the highs and lows, the bads, the goods, go through every single emotion because at the end of the day, it makes you better.”

Barkley, Smith out of London game

Eagles running back Saquon Barkley and receiver DeVonta Smith were ruled out of Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London because of hamstring injuries.

Barkley hurt his right hamstring early in last week's 24-20 loss to the Rams and didn't practice all week. Smith also didn't practice this week and will miss his second straight game.

Chargers put Slater on injured reserve

The Chargers placed left tackle Rashawn Slater on injured reserve after he underwent surgery Thursday to address a high-ankle sprain he sustained in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Slater will miss at least the next four games. He is eligible to return Week 10, when the Chargers face the Baltimore Ravens on

Nov. 16. Slater missed all of 2025 with a ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee. In addition, safety Derwin James Jr. (hamstring), receivers Quentin Johnston (chest) and Brenen Thompson (quadricep) and guard Kayode Awosika (fibula) were ruled out for Sunday.

—JOAQUIN RUIZ

Etc.

The Vikings listed their top two receivers, Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, as questionable and ruled out starting left tackle Christian Darrisaw for Sunday. ... Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty is questionable for Sunday's game at New England with ankle and foot injuries. ... The Baltimore Ravens ruled out quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) and edge rusher Trey Hendrickson (finger) for their game at Atlanta because of injuries. ... Bears quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday at Green Bay.

Another round of Brews

MLB-best Milwaukee is able to pour it on at home

By Kevin Baxter

Milwaukee has averaged a baseball-best 97 wins a season in Pat Murphy's three years as manager, topped by a franchise-record 103 victories this summer. What the Brewers haven't won is a National League pennant, a drought they could end by beating the Dodgers in a rematch of last fall's NL Championship Series.

The Dodgers won that series, of course. And that bit of confidence could prove important against a team that got better as the season wore on. Milwaukee not only had the best overall record (103-59) and a share of the best home record (55-26) in the majors, but it had the best record in the second half (44-22) as well as in September (18-6).

But if the Brewers have the numbers on their side, the Dodgers have history: Milwaukee [See Brewers, B10]

Dodgers get rematch, but a repeat of sweep is tall order

BY MADDIE LEE

A growing scrum of reporters around Andrew Friedman, who was in the locker room after the Dodgers defeated the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday night to advance to the National League Championship Series, didn't put a damper on the celebration.

Tanner Scott stuck upside-down beers in Friedman's shirt. Alex Freeland dumped beer into his mouth and all over his face. Eric Lauer coordinated a sneak attack, announcing that he was heading to the showers before reappearing from a side entrance.

Friedman never stopped grinning. And it appeared he had even more of a glint in his eye when asked whether he'd rather take on the Milwaukee Brewers or San Diego Padres in the NLCS. [See Dodgers, B10]

MIKE DITKA, 1939-2026

Fiery, intense coach led '85 Bears

By June Hsu

Mustache. Aviator sunglasses. Bears sweater vest. Though Mike Ditka's look may be iconic, his time as a player and coach is what cemented his name in NFL history.

Ditka, the first tight end to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and coach of the legendary 1985 Chicago Bears, has died. He was 86. His family announced his death in a statement Friday.

"It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, Mike Ditka," The family said. "While the world knew Mike as a Hall of Fame football player, legendary coach, and leader of the Chicago Bears' Super Bowl XX championship team, we knew him as the heart of our family. Mike will be missed beyond measure and remembered forever."

“Mike Ditka epitomized football over so many years,” NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. “He brought intensity, authenticity, and an unmistakable personality to everything he did.”

With nicknames "Iron Mike," "Da Coach" and "The Hammer," Ditka was [See Ditka, B11]

Bruins urged not to let emotions, or Ducks, run wild

By Connor Dullinger

When No. 21 UCLA faces off against No. 13 Oregon on Saturday afternoon at Autzen Stadium, defensive coordinator Colin Hitschler wants the Bruins to toe the line between playing with emotion and playing emotional.

“Big-time environments tend to bring a little extra out of your guys, and when you do a little bit extra, you tend to do too much,” Hitschler said. “Football is a hard game, but you can’t make it harder than it already is. Sometimes when you press, you tend to give up big mistakes. In the Purdue game, looking back, we definitely pressed a little bit too hard and got a little emotional. ... Got to play with emotions, but we can’t play emotional. We’re in a good spot of growing and understanding that. But this is a new atmosphere, a [See UCLA, B9]

Designing Out- door Spaces That Actually Last

Outdoor living isn't a luxury amenity anymore. It's core residential square footage. More than $75\%$ of millennials now consider outdoor kitchens essential, according to the National Kitchen and Bath Association, and the homes commanding the highest premiums are the ones that blur interior and exterior seamlessly. Buyers expect these spaces to function year-round, not just during the three months when the weather cooperates.

What Changes When You Design for Reality

Here's what I've learned watching outdoor projects age over the past decade: The spaces that look best after five years aren't necessarily the ones built with premium materials. They're the ones where someone thought hard about how weather actually moves through a site.

Think Like Water

Proper drainage is crucial for managing where water wants to go on your specific site, then designing transitions and details that move it along rather than trap it. I've seen beautiful IPE decks destroyed not by the material itself, but by edge details that created perfect little moisture pockets.

Orientation Isn't Optional

A west-facing outdoor kitchen in Phoenix needs completely different material thinking than a north-facing covered porch in Seattle. Areas with intense afternoon sun will experience serious thermal stress with materials that expand, finishes fail faster, and dark stains that can cause warping.

Protection Isn't Decoration

Roof overhangs, pergolas and covered areas aren't just about shade and aesthetics – they're doing real work extending material life. A deck under even partial cover will dramatically outperform an identical exposed deck.

The Material Revolution Architects Are Missing

We're seeing a new generation of engineered materials that actually deliver on the promise of low-maintenance aesthetics. I'm talking about bio-based products made from agricultural waste streams like rice husks, materials that would have been burned or landfilled, transformed into products that outperform traditional building materials.

The aim isn't resilience alone but harmony with the elements. When outdoor spaces are designed to work in rhythm with their environment, they evolve into functional extensions of the home rather than aesthetic obligations.
