阿联酋称：有人策划 9 / 11 式飞机袭击

据称副驾驶旨在袭击大型机场以最大化伤亡人数

作者：马修·海·布朗（MATTHEW HAY BROWN）

阿联酋方面表示，一名被指控上周用斧头袭击机长并企图劫持飞往以色列商业航班的迪拜飞航（FlyDubai）副驾驶，计划将飞机撞向本古里安国际机场的客运航站楼。

据官方运营的阿联酋通讯社报道，阿联酋总检察长哈马德·赛义夫·阿尔-尚西（Hamad Saif al-Shamsi）周五表示，这名被确认为 29 岁阿曼国民的副驾驶哈曼·阿尔-哈马米（Hamam al-Hammami）从 9 / 11 的基地组织袭击中汲取了灵感。尚西表示，他曾利用之前的两次飞行来侦察航线和机场。

尚西的报告称，哈马米经历了长达十年的激进化过程，这引发了人们对其如何避开迪拜飞航筛选措施的质疑。尚西表示，调查人员发现，哈马米在进入这家国有航空公司时“符合专业和安全就业要求”，“在这些程序过程中没有出现任何迹象显示其具有极端主义倾向或实施恐怖阴谋的意图”。

9月 30 日乘坐迪拜飞航 1073 号航班的乘客表示，哈马米用驾驶舱内配备的应急工具——破拆斧袭击了机长，并使这架波音 737 Max 8 飞机俯冲。机长斯米特·马奇哈尔（Smit Machchhar）头部受了危及生命的重伤，但成功打开了驾驶舱门，使乘客能够制服哈马米。当时机上还有 2 名负责返程飞行的飞行员。详见 A12 页“袭击事件”

特朗普升级罢免美联储理事丽莎·库克的行动

作者：凯瑟琳·多伊尔（KATHERINE DOYLE）和贾斯汀·朱文纳尔（JUSTIN JOUVENAL）

唐纳德·特朗普总统升级了针对美联储理事丽莎·库克（Lisa Cook）的斗争，成立了一个委员会来评估其盟友对她提出的抵押贷款欺诈指控。

根据一份日期为10月7日的备忘录，该委员会将向特朗普报告“是否有‘正当理由’罢免库克理事”。委员会将在计划于11月5日在白宫举行的一次闭门听证会上审议证据。

白宫除了备忘录文本外，没有立即回应置评请求。

特朗普去年将抵押贷款指控作为罢免库克的理由，这是该机构历史上总统首次尝试罢免在任的美联储理事。

库克对此提起诉讼，最高法院在6月发布了一项紧急裁决，阻止特朗普在没有正当理由的情况下立即将库克从美联储中除名，直到关于其被尝试罢免的诉讼在法院中审理完毕。国会创建美联储是为了使其独立于总统，以便其能够做出——例如提高利率——这类在政治上可能不受欢迎的决定。

在辩论过程中，部分大法官对政府关于库克犯有抵押贷款欺诈的指控表示怀疑。然而，由首席大法官约翰·罗伯茨（John G. Roberts Jr.）撰写的 5-4 裁决留下了可能性，即如果总统拥有正当理由并给予库克挑战其被解雇决定的机会，库克仍可能被罢免。

罗伯茨指出，《联邦储备法》规定美联储理事只能因“正当理由”被罢免，但法律并未为罢免如何运作提供清晰的路线图。

美联储 7 人理事会中的一个空缺将创造一个潜在机会，以倾斜共和党任命者的平衡，取代一名任期至 2038 年的拜登政府任命的理事。

在裁决之后，特朗普在社交媒体上表示，他将“立即采取适当行动”解雇库克。

普京将开启柴油供应阀门

分析人士称，短期影响可能有限

作者：迈克尔·比恩鲍姆（MICHAEL BIRNBAUM）和埃文·哈尔珀（EVAN HALPER）

唐纳德·特朗普总统表示，俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京已同意向全球市场供应柴油。此举可能会在一定程度上缓解价格压力，但在实际上使华盛顿与莫斯科结盟，并站在乌克兰及其对俄罗斯能源基础设施进行轰炸的对立面。

特朗普在社交媒体上吹捧与普京的一次“非常成功的讨论”（普京近几周一直在升级对乌克兰城市平民的白昼袭击），他写道：“俄罗斯将立即向美国和全球市场供应超过 300,000 吨柴油，11 月期间再供应 500,000 吨，随后立即供应 1,000,000 吨。”

这项协议的宣布，反映了特朗普在期中选举前不到一个月，在应对能源价格问题上的挣扎，能源价格已成为其政党面临的一个重大问题。

分析人士表示，涉及的数字仅占美国每日柴油生产和消费的一小部分，短期内的价格影响可能会很有限。俄罗斯此前一直没有出口任何柴油，旨在将其保留用于战争，因为在许多俄罗斯城市，加油站的排队队伍延伸了几个街区。

诺贝尔奖授予前法官后，特朗普对国际刑事法院实施制裁

作者：苏珊娜·乔治（SUSANNAH GEORGE）

特朗普政府周五对国际刑事法院（ICC）实施了激进的制裁，就在此前几小时，该法院的一位前法官被授予诺贝尔和平奖。

尽管特朗普政府多次与国际刑事法院发生冲突，并认为该机构腐败且不合法，但此次行动标志着与这个调查战争罪及其他反人类罪行的全球司法机构之间的冲突显著升级。

这些制裁旨在将该法院与全球金融体系隔绝，并威胁要惩罚那些继续与该法院开展业务的国家。

该法院在的一份声明中称，这些制裁是“对法治的攻击”，并承诺“任何人不应因服务于正义事业而受到惩罚。历史将审判这一时刻”。

国务卿马可·鲁比奥（Marco Rubio）在发布到社交媒体的一段视频中表示，此举旨在结束该法院对美国主权的威胁。

男学生被赋予任务：勇敢发声反对强奸

作者：凯西·帕克斯（CASEY PARKS）

2026 年大选

塔拉里科在跨性别权利立场上陷入澄清困境

作者：娜塔莉·艾莉森 (NATALIE ALLISON)

去年，当詹姆斯·塔拉里科 (James Talarico) 寻求德克萨斯州参议院民主党提名时，他将自己长期以来对 LGBTQ+ 权利的支持列为党内选民在激烈的初选中应选举他的理由之一。

这位来自奥斯汀的州代表多年来一直为德克萨斯州的跨性别者和其他少数群体奔走，反对共和党通过“洗手间法案”以及禁止跨性别女孩参加女子体育赛事等尝试。

但自从成为民主党近 30 年来在德克萨斯州赢得参议院席位的最佳机会以来，塔拉里科在涉及跨性别权利的一些过去言论上开始保持距离，包括体育参与以及未成年人获得性别转换医疗服务的机会。他在一个倾向于共和党的红州面临压力，而他资金充足但深陷丑闻的共和党对手——总检察长肯·帕克斯顿 (Ken Paxton) 已向选民投放了大量针对这些立场的广告。全美范围内的民主党人日益将跨性别权利视为一个需要谨慎对待的话题。

在寻求 LGBTQ+ 团体和其他盟友的支持时，塔拉里科就他在参议院将采取的行动做出了具体承诺。

在初选竞争期间，他至少两次以书面形式承诺，如果当选将支持《平等法案》（Equality Act）——该法案由 LGBTQ+ 权利倡导者推动，旨在修订 1964 年的《民权法》，禁止基于性别、性取向和性别认同的歧视。

但塔拉里科在镜头前并未讨论过同一项承诺—— 详见 A5 页关于塔拉里科的报道

民主党的担忧：民调是否低估了共和党？在过去三次总统大选中，调查结果均未命中目标。本报民调专家就偏差问题以及如何解读中期选举民调回答疑问。

上个月在达拉斯举行的共和党大会上，唐纳德·特朗普总统在登台时向支持者问候。

作者：斯科特·克莱门特（SCOTT CLEMENT）

民调显示，在选举日到来前不到一个月，民主党处于强势地位。

JULIO CORTEZ / AP

在国会的全国支持率方面，民主党领先约 8 个百分点，高于他们赢得众议院多数席位可能需要的 3.5 个百分点的差距。在六个由共和党把持的席位竞争中，民主党参议院候选人至少保持微弱领先，这超过了他们赢得该议院控制权所需的四个席位。

但这是否是一个幻象？共和党人希望民调高估了民主党获得的支持，正如在过去三次总统大选中那样。

共和党民调专家帕特里克·鲁菲尼（Patrick Ruffini）指出，平均而言，从 2018 到 2024 年，在爱荷华州、密歇根州和俄亥俄州，此阶段的民调将民主党参议院候选人的支持率高估了 6.2 个百分点，而这些州在今年都有激烈的参议院竞争。另外，State Navigate 的民调专家查兹·纳蒂科姆（Chaz Nuttycombe）表示，在爱荷华州的一个立法选区，农村地区的共和党人没有参与他们的调查，他称这可能是“今年爱荷华州民调的‘玉米地里的金丝雀’（预警信号）”。

在任何选举之前，都无法得知民调会高估民主党还是共和党，但了解近年来民调为何失准、民调专家如何调整以及今年的数据呈现出什么情况，有助于为今年秋季设定预期。

近期选举中民调的记录如何？

所有民调都存在由抽样误差幅度所代表的随机误差，但在理想情况下，在一次给定的选举中，它们对每个政党的高估程度应该是大致相当的。然而，根据 Silver Bulletin 的分析，在过去的 14 个联邦和州长选举周期中，民调系统性地高估民主党或共和党，平均偏差为 2 个百分点。

最糟糕的周期是 2020 年，当时民调平均将民主党候选人的支持率高估了 4.7 个百分点，高于 2016 年的 3 个百分点偏差和 2024 年的 2.9 个百分点误差。在唐纳德·特朗普总统 2018 年的首次中期选举和乔·拜登总统 2022 年的中期选举中，选举调查相对准确，系统性误差小于 1 个百分点。

是什么导致近期选举中民调低估了特朗普？

这些选举中民调误差最可能的原因是非响应偏差（nonresponse bias）。当一个政党的支持者参与民调的可能性低于另一个政党的支持者，且民调专家无法检测到这一模式并予以修正时，民调就会低估该候选人的支持率。

特朗普将民调视为“操纵”体制的一部分并对其猛烈抨击，由于他在受教育程度较低、公民参与度较低和社会信任度较低的选民中具有独特的吸引力，这给民调带来了特别的挑战。这些群体参与调查的可能性较低。虽然民调专家可以通过教育程度对样本进行加权，但这并不总是足够的。

民调专家还推论，新冠疫情发挥了

在使 2020 年民调变得尤为不准确的过程中发挥了作用。民主党人对感染的担忧程度更高，且更有可能留在家里，这可能使他们更有时间回答选举民调。

民调公司在采取什么措施来应对党派性不响应（partisan nonresponse）的威胁？

近年来，许多民调机构采取了措施来对抗不响应偏差。越来越多的民调机构（包括《华盛顿邮报》）使用选民档案来抽取调查样本。这些档案构建自官方注册选民数据库，并在大多数州包含可靠的党派倾向指标。

此外，许多民调机构根据人口统计属性、党派认同、投票率以及最近一次总统大选中的投票选择对样本进行加权。这些改变显然是为了纠正民调中特朗普选民代表性不足的问题。

这些调整的效果如何—。

《邮报》密歇根州民调显示，自2024年以来党派参与度未出现一致性偏移

今年民主党人的联系难度增加，但在接听者中，完成访谈率有所上升。共和党人的偏移情况则呈现抵消状态。

党派倾向是根据选民登记数据库中的过往初选投票率和其他指标推断而出的。 来源：华盛顿邮报-沙尔学院（Washington Post-Schar School）针对密歇根州登记选民的民调；2026 poll Sept. 10-14, 2024 poll Oct. 24-28.

这些调整是否有效？

根据过往总统大选投票情况及其他政治变量进行加权，被广泛认为降低了2020 to 2024, 间的民调误差，美国民意研究协会（American Association for Public Opinion Research）的一份事后分析报告（我也是该报告的共同作者）也证实了这一点。在《邮报》的州选举民调中，针对过往总统大选投票的加权平均降低了1.6个百分点的偏差。

选民文件抽样（voter-file sampling）的日益普及，还使民调机构能够更好地监测不同群体的响应率，并测试更多提高准确性的方法。

今年民主党人参与民调的程度是否高于共和党人？

民调通常不报告各群体的响应率数据，但华盛顿邮报-沙尔学院9月份针对密歇根州选民的民调提供了一个观察模式如何变化的窗口。

今年，在选民文件中被识别为民主党人的选民，无论通过短信还是人工电话访谈，其成功联系率均低于共和党人。

但在成功联系的选民中，民主党人完成访谈的可能性更高。且与2024年的一次类似民调相比，民主党人的完成率在今年有所上升，而共和党人的完成率则保持稳定。

民主党人较高的完成率可能表明他们今年对投票更感兴趣。虽然《邮报》的调查通过加权来修正党派响应率的差异，但民调仍利用过往投票率以及询问选民投票概率的调查问题来产生“可能投票者”的估算。

核心结论

民调机构采取了一系列措施来对抗无响应偏差，这可能降低了今年出现重大民调误差的风险，但无法完全排除这种可能性。正如共和党民调专家鲁菲尼（Ruffini）所言，民调在不同地区的准确度可能有所不同。同样，也没有保证民调一定会高估民主党人：如果今年秋季特朗普选民的投票率骤降，那么那些确保选民构成与2024年投票数相匹配的民调可能会低估民主党人。

在解读民调结果时，一种策略是设想如果民主党或共和党被高估了3个百分点，结果会如何。如果民调高估了民主党该幅度，他们可能仍将赢得众议院但失去参议院。如果民调高估了共和党该幅度，民主党可能会迎来一场“海啸”般的胜利。

民调达成共识的部分

德克萨斯州的西班牙裔选民正在向左转——在出口民调显示特朗普赢得了德克萨斯州55%的西班牙裔选民两年后，新数据显示西班牙裔选民可能会推动民主党在众议院和参议院获胜。

库克政治报告（Cook Political Report）和TelevisaUnivision对德克萨斯州西班牙裔选民的一项调查发现，在可能投票的西班牙裔选民中，民主党参议员候选人詹姆斯·塔拉里科（James Talarico）以63%对30%领先于共和党人肯·帕克斯顿（Ken Paxton）。《纽约时报》 / 锡拉学院（New York Times / Siena College）和福克斯新闻（Fox News）的独立民调也发现民主党领先约30个百分点。

库克-TelevisaUnivision的民调还发现，在德克萨斯州南部的三个关键国会选区中，西班牙裔选民对民主党众议员候选人的支持率高出14个百分点。《邮报》的特奥·阿尔姆斯（Teo Armus）和费德里卡·科科（Federica Cocco）采访了该地区的西班牙裔选民，他们曾投票给特朗普，但现在对驱逐出境带来的经济影响感到沮丧。

美国雨水排放系统无法应对此次厄尔尼诺现象

全国许多排水系统 过于陈旧且规模不足

[...OMITTED...]

作者：埃琳·道格拉斯（ERIN DOUGLAS）

当下雨时，水渠、桥梁、管道、沟渠和涵洞理应将水引导至街道下方。但美国大部分雨水基础设施并非为气候变暖带来的更剧烈的降雨而建——现在专家警告称，持续的超级厄尔尼诺现象将进一步暴露全国范围内的这些风险。

“厄尔尼诺现象似乎只是在加剧我们已经看到的趋势，”州洪水管理协会（Association of State Floodplain Managers）执行主任查德·伯金尼斯（Chad Berginnis）表示，“我们需要确保在设计[基础设施]时，能够应对这些更为极端、强烈的降雨事件。”

目前的雨水系统尚未准备就绪，而近期的风暴已经暴露了这些缺陷。

非营利研究机构 Headwaters Economics 的一项分析发现，在全美 600 万 多个涵洞中，约三分之二位于设计标准过时的州。（涵洞允许溪流在道路下方通过。）美国土木工程师学会的另一项分析在 2025, 给美国的雨水基础设施打出了“D”级，并指出更换老化基础设施的需求往往超过了当地的执行能力。

在美国西南部，厄尔尼诺现象已经导致季风季节更加潮湿，考验着排水基础设施。

在纳瓦霍国（Navajo Nation），9月中旬发生的山洪导致三人死亡并引发了人员疏散。上周，波罗飓风（Hurricane Polo）的残余部分带来了更多降雨。纳瓦霍国应急行动中心运营负责人兼交通部项目主管希拉·克莱德（Sheila Clyde）表示，在过去一个月中，有 500 多个区域的土路受损。

克莱德表示，洪水冲毁了涵洞，其中一些涵洞已经使用了数十年。她指出，仅在新墨西哥州墨西哥泉（Mexican Springs）一段 15 英里的道路上，就有 9 处管道被冲毁。

“雨势一旦到来，就非常猛烈，”克莱德在谈到降雨时说道，并补充说全面修复道路可能需要两个月的时间。

工程专家表示，在某些情况下，雨水基础设施的设计标准已经过时数十年。这些标准通常依赖于历史降雨总量，而没有考虑到近期的观测结果，也没有考虑到气候变暖背景下的未来预测。

“我们目前拥有的大多数涵洞并非为我们将要面对的洪水而建，”Headwater Economics 的土木工程师、该机构社区洪水韧性项目负责人布里奇特·米切尔（Bridget Mitchell）说道。

米切尔表示，根据项目的规模和复杂程度，更换涵洞以更好地适应更大量的降雨，每个涵洞的成本可能在数千到数百万美元之间。她认为这些成本是值得的：这些涵洞将减少维护需求，使用寿命延长数十年，且比灾难响应的成本更低。

尽管如此，全美许多市政当局没有资金来更换老化且不足的雨水基础设施，即使是在大城市也是如此。

圣迭戈市雨水部门主任托德·斯奈德（Todd Snyder）表示，该市雨水基础设施的资金需求超过 50 亿美元 billion。该市的大多数排水渠、地下管道和泵站都是在半个多世纪前安装的，当时建筑较少，混凝土覆盖量也比现在少得多。

“圣迭戈从那时起增长了很多，”斯奈德说道，并补充说该市一直在竞相清理水道中的碎片，以便更好地应对地表径流。加利福尼亚州正准备应对潜在的残酷影响，因为厄尔尼诺预计将带来一个异常潮湿的冬季。

“如果你将此与我们因气候变化而看到的剧烈风暴相结合……[那么]我们会有大量被认为尺寸不足的基础设施，”斯奈德补充道。

他表示，那里只有约 17 percent 的地上雨水通道能够承受每年发生概率为 1 percent 的洪水——即所谓的 100-year 洪水。

在新墨西哥州南部，上周发生的山洪冲破了堤坝，并导致一座大坝面临崩溃风险，从而引发了人员疏散。在遭受干旱袭击的西部地区，这种带来伤害而非帮助的水患显得尤为具有毁灭性。

“我们确实需要这些水分，”墨西哥大学助理教授、研究径流的水文学家格哈德·舍纳（Gerhard Schoener）表示，“问题在于它们一次性全部到来了。”

ICE枪击事件引发特朗普政府官员与纽约市的新一轮冲突

当局称 一名多米尼加男子 在纽约利用汽车冲撞车辆

作者：TIM CRAIG, DAVID NAKAMURA, SILVIA FOSTER-FRAU 以及 TED HESSON

纽约——人们在人行道上行走，孩子们放学回家，街道上挤满了汽车，就在这时，两名穿着牛仔裤和卫衣的男子拔出枪，冲向一辆灰色的本田车。

片刻之后，枪声撕裂了空气。

周五公布的警方视频显示，行人纷纷俯身躲在人行道上或四处奔逃。一名背着书包的女孩用手捂住嘴。不久后，一名警员被拍到抱着一名惊恐万分的5岁男孩。一名28岁的男子颈部出血，被紧急送往医院。

周四下午，一名美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）官员枪击一名多米尼加男子的事件，震惊了纽约市马布尔希尔（Marble Hill）社区的居民，并引发了市领导人与特朗普政府官员之间关于ICE在市内的战术和存在的新一轮冲突。

在周五上午的新闻发布会上，国土安全部长马克韦恩·马林将该男子奥斯卡·贝尔加尔（Oscar Belgal）描述为一名有长期犯罪记录的侵略者，称其利用汽车冲撞了两辆政府车辆，随后向警员加速冲撞。他表示，开枪的ICE官员当时并不知道贝尔加尔的儿子也在车内。

马林将责任归咎于纽约官员，指责他们未能配合移民执法部门接管因州和地方犯罪而被捕的无证移民，从而“危及公众安全”。

与此同时，纽约官员谴责ICE官员在住宅街道上对一名带着幼童驾驶且未携带武器的男子动用武器。纽约市长佐兰·马姆达尼（Zohran Mamdani，民主党）表示，该机构正在全国范围内“播种混乱与恐怖”，破坏公共安全，应当被废除。马姆达尼和州长凯西·霍楚尔（Kathy Hochul，民主党）希望ICE暂停在该州的执法行动。

马林表示，执法行动不会暂停，贝尔加尔将面临刑事起诉。

“他知道车里有个孩子，却选择高速加速，”马林在华盛顿举行的新闻发布会上说道，其身旁站着ICE的高级官员。“他是个罪犯，是个暴徒，是个帮派分子。人们应该愤怒的是他危及一名5岁孩子。”

一名联邦法官周五暂时禁止ICE驱逐贝尔加尔。贝尔加尔在医院接受治疗后被转移至新泽西州。他的律师表示，他随后被送回纽约，目前被关押在布鲁克林的一家拘留中心。

“无论一个人是否有犯罪记录，在下午时分枪击一名后座坐着儿子的父亲，这既不合法也不正确，”贝尔加尔的律师哈罗德·索利斯（Harold Solis）说道。“这不是我们在这个国家解决法律纠纷的方式。我们是在这样的建筑里解决纠纷的。”

纽约市拥有相关政策，限制当地执法部门与联邦官员共享某些信息，或在移民未被判定犯有暴力犯罪的情况下执行拘留请求。该州还设有政策，防止联邦当局在没有法院命令或搜查令的情况下访问移民的机动车和驾驶执照记录。

马林表示，自总统唐纳德·特朗普去年就职以来，ICE已在纽约发出了14,766份拘留请求，以接管纽约监狱中的人员。但他表示，该州并未配合。“我们从纽约州得到的只有沉默，”他说。

马林表示，他周四晚上与马姆达尼进行了交谈，市长请求他释放贝尔加尔，这促使特朗普告诉马姆达尼，如果当地警方愿意对贝尔加尔提起刑事指控，政府将把监管权移交给当地警方。

“市长说，‘我们没有拘留他’，”马林说。

马姆达尼没有立即回应置评请求。

39岁的卡门·佩德罗萨说，她当时正走在马布尔希尔大道上，看到贝尔加尔在打电话，告诉对方有人在跟踪他。他走得很快，大声说话，儿子就在他身边。她说，当几名身穿便装的男子步行靠近时，他带着孩子跳进了车里。佩德罗萨说，贝尔加尔试图逃跑并转弯，但似乎没有撞击任何 ICE（美国移民及海关执法局）的车辆。

佩德罗萨在一次采访中表示，就在那时，警员们开始开枪。

“他们先是射击车头，然后射击车尾。孩子当时在车里——谢天谢地，孩子没被击中，也没有发生类似的事情，”她说，并补充道贝尔加尔的 SUV 发生了碰撞，ICE 警员以粗暴的方式将他带离。

“他实际上并没有反抗，”她说，“他们只是把他拖出来，扔在地上。他说，‘我在流血’。”

旁观者的视频片段显示，贝尔加尔被铐在人行道上， 警员在附近，其中一名穿着黄色建筑工人风格背心的警员拿着一支步枪。可以听到一些旁观者在愤怒地向 警员大喊。

由纽约市警察局（NYPD）摄像头拍摄并于周五公布的其他视频显示了事件发生前后的瞬间，但没有显示警员向贝尔加尔车辆开枪的画面。

根据住宅监控摄像头显示，贝尔加尔在消防栓前停下时，一名身穿便装的 警员拔枪靠近驾驶员侧窗。另一名警员从同一侧靠近其大灯附近。此时，贝尔加尔的车向前移动并离开了画面。随后，警方发现了七枚弹壳。

贝尔加尔的车被发现与道路垂直停放，挡风玻璃受损，后窗破碎。纽约市警察局局长杰西卡·蒂施在周四的新闻发布会上表示，一辆由 拥有的灰色四门轿车前左侧面板受损，下底盘完全脱落。

周五，一名联邦法官就贝尔加尔律师提交的请愿书举行了听证会，要求将其从 的拘留中释放，并指控特朗普政府在没有搜查令的情况下逮捕他，侵犯了他的权利。（他的律师将其称为奥斯卡·贝尔加尔，并承认其姓氏有多种拼写方式。在纽约市的法院文件中，其姓名拼写为 Belgal。）

在听证会上，美国助理检察官布兰登·沃特曼被要求提供逮捕贝尔加尔的法律依据。

“遗憾的是，我目前对此没有确切的答案，”沃特曼回答道，“这是一个 正在向我反馈的问题。这里存在犯罪记录。”

在随后的新闻发布会上，贝尔加尔的律师表示，他告诉他们体内仍有一颗子弹。

和国土安全部因激进的执法手段面临广泛的公众愤怒。今年 1 月，在明尼阿波利斯的一次行动高峰期间，联邦警员枪杀了两名美国公民。自 7 月以来，已有两名移民被向其车辆开枪的 警员射杀。

特朗普政府官员一直坚称，他们的目标是通过针对“最恶劣之辈”——即犯有暴力犯罪或重复犯罪的无证移民——来进行执法，从而确保美国人的安全。但逮捕数据显示，许多被捕者仅涉及民事移民违规。根据《华盛顿邮报》的一项分析， 在 7 月逮捕的所有人员中，超过一半没有犯罪记录。

蒂施和马姆达尼在周四晚些时候告诉记者，那些 ICE 执法人员没有穿着表明其执法人员身份的服装，并称至少有一名执法人员携带了一把长枪。

“他们穿着建筑工背心，戴着遮住脸的口罩。没有任何合理的方法能将他们识别为 ICE 特工，”马姆达尼说。“当时学校刚刚放学，街上挤满了家庭成员和孩子。”

马林表示，执法人员当时是对贝尔加尔执行一项标准的卧底行动，此前执法人员曾在 9 月尝试逮捕贝尔加尔但未成功，随后他逃离了。

马林说，ICE 执法人员“在靠近车辆时表明了身份并下达了合法指令”。“更不用说他知道自己被通缉。他已经逃跑过一次……我知道他知道自己的日子快到头了。”

马林表示，当局认为贝尔加尔与一个帮派有关联，该帮派涉嫌参与了去年一起枪击美国海关和边境保护局执法人员的事件。

在谈到贝尔加尔时，马林说：“这个家伙是个暴徒——是最糟糕中的最糟糕，我们竟然给这个案件如此多的关注，真是可耻。”

当局表示，贝尔加尔在美国生活了三年，被指控犯有包括重窃罪、抢劫罪以及使用危险武器盗窃在内的罪行。

在采访中，认识贝尔加尔的人将他在美国的经历描述为动荡不安，包括参与斗殴、贩毒和抢劫他人。法院记录显示，去年他的房东向法院起诉，要求他支付近一年的欠租，并指责他的居住状态“有毒”。

其他人则分享了更美好的回忆。42 岁的玛丽亚·桑塔纳说，贝尔加尔曾在曼哈顿上城的一栋公寓楼里住了好几年，但在过去一年内搬到了布朗克斯。桑塔纳将贝尔加尔描述为一个“非常友好的家伙”，他会清理大楼前的垃圾，帮助邻居寻找停车位，并帮老年居民提购物袋。

“有一次，有个男人因为停车位要跟我打架，他走下来说：‘嘿，那是个女人，’”桑塔纳回忆道。“他保护了我，而他甚至不认识我。”

众议员阿德里亚诺·埃斯派亚拉特（纽约州民主党）表示，他周四晚上探访了贝尔加尔 5 岁的儿子及其母亲。他表示，家人告诉他，贝尔加尔当时从学校接儿子，将孩子安置在后座的安全座椅上，随后在前往拜访当地亲友的途中被枪击。

孩子在身体上没有受伤，但埃斯派亚拉特说，家人告诉他，孩子“被这次经历吓到了”。

这位立法者表示，他此前并不了解贝尔加尔涉嫌的犯罪记录，但无论如何，在白天的住宅区中心向其车辆开火的决定让许多人陷入了危险。

“全国任何一个社区都会对这种事情发生在社区中心感到震惊，”埃斯派亚拉特说。“如果非要说谁的话，他们才是那些让我们的社区陷入危险的人。”

范斯与鲁比奥对吉尔福伊尔信用卡指控的询问不予理会

美国副总统 JD 范斯和国务卿马可·鲁比奥在周四拒绝谴责美国驻希腊大使金伯利·吉尔福伊尔。此前有指控称，吉尔福伊尔在准备接受参议院确认听证会期间，曾要求一名特朗普的捐赠者为其支付 $100,000 的信用卡账单。

范斯在周四于华盛顿举行的新闻发布会上表示，在就此事“提供真实看法之前，他希望了解完整的情况”。他说：“我不喜欢那样，但我不知道你具体在说谁。”

周四在雅典市外的一座机场，鲁比奥对有关这位美国大使的提问不予理会。他补充道：“我们不在外国机场的停机坪上通过新闻发布会处理这些事情。”

关于信用卡账单的指控是围绕吉尔福伊尔产生的最新争议。吉尔福伊尔曾是一名媒体名人及检察官，去年被提名并确认担任美国驻希腊大使。

吉尔福伊尔在 2024, 年底分手前曾与总统唐纳德·特朗普的长子小唐纳德订婚。由于与白宫关系密切，她成为了雅典的一位高知名度人物，并受到希腊右翼政府的礼遇。但这位美国大使一直被报道称生活方式过于奢靡，且经常对员工发脾气。

对吉尔福伊尔提出最新指控的捐赠者埃里克·德特斯（Eric Deters）是肯塔基州的一名前国会候选人，他表示自特朗普 2016 年首次参选以来就一直支持他。

德特斯向《邮报》提供了一批文件、电子邮件和短信，称他在几个问题上寻求政府的帮助，并在吉尔福伊尔被确认担任大使之前请求她利用其关系。 《华尔街日报》率先报道了德特斯的指控。

在发给德特斯请求支付信用卡款项的一条短信中，吉尔福伊尔据称写道：“如果你把钱汇给美国运通（American Express），任何地方都不会显示，只会显示……请帮帮我。”该消息似乎包含一个 PDF 文件，其中包含如何向美国运通支付账单的说明。德特斯最终没有支付这笔账单，并写道，如果不“离婚”他就无法做到这一点。

涉嫌发送的消息还表明，吉尔福伊尔试图用她接触特朗普政府高层官员的机会进行交易。德特斯表示，在过去几年中，他向吉尔福伊尔支付了 $300,000 的演讲费，因为他希望政府在税务问题以及追捕一名被指控保险欺诈并逃往巴基斯坦的俄亥俄州医生方面施加影响。

根据涉嫌发送的消息，吉尔福伊尔在多个时间点似乎意识到这种情况可能触及伦理底线，她经常告诉德特斯不要留下任何书面记录，并警告他可能会让她失去大使职位。

她在一条涉嫌发送的消息中写道：“简直是噩梦，你真的会让我的大使之职化为乌有，停止写信。”

德特斯表示，他从 2020 年吉尔福伊尔出席肯塔基州一个名为“自由节”（Freedom Fest）的活动时开始与她合作。现在他已坚决与她决裂，周四多次在媒体上露面，称她是一个“骗子”，并表示他们的关系是“权钱交易”。

美国国务院、白宫以及吉尔福伊尔的律师均未回应置评请求。

关于吉尔福伊尔的指控在一定程度上掩盖了鲁比奥访问雅典的消息，他在机场受到了美国大使的热烈欢迎。周三，这位美国最高外交官在卫城前发表了一场备受瞩目的演讲，试图将特朗普的“美国优先”精神置于西方文明的历史之中。

“我们正处于一个转折点——不仅是我国历史的转折点，更是我们整个文明的转折点，”他说道。

众议院和参议院外交关系委员会的民主党议员上周致信鲁比奥，要求国务院调查针对吉尔福伊尔的指控，并向国会提供最新进展。

众议院外交事务委员会民主党最高级别议员、纽约州代表格雷戈里·米克斯写道，如果指控被证明属实，吉尔福伊尔应当被撤职。

范斯对枪决将进行直播表示怀疑，称若真直播则不会观看

副总统 JD 范斯周五向记者发表讲话。 SAMUEL CORUM / POOL / 作者：MAEGAN VAZQUEZ, NATALIE ALLISON 以及 IAN DUNCAN

副总统 JD 范斯周五表示，他不会观看计划中对胡德堡枪击手尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（Nidal Malik Hasan）的直播处决，并对此次处决是否会播出表示怀疑。

周四，五角大楼表示，哈桑将被枪决，且该过程将进行直播供公众观看。这将是美国军方首次在互联网上直播处决过程。哈桑的执行日期定于 12 月 3 日。

范斯是一名天主教徒，此前曾表示支持死刑。在空军二号专机上，记者询问他如何将自己的信仰与五角大楼决定直播杀戮的决定相调和。他强调哈桑“残忍地谋杀”了无辜的人，但补充道：“如果最终真的直播，我不会观看。”

这位副总统还对直播是否能真正实现表示怀疑。

“我不确定这是否真的会发生，”范斯说，“让我们拭目以待吧。”

范斯的言论标志着特朗普政府的高级官员首次对五角大楼公开处决的决定表现出某种不安。

周五早些时候，美国联邦通信委员会（FCC）主席布伦丹·卡尔（Brendan Carr）表示，关于是否可能在电视网络上播出此次处决，他将听从五角大楼的决定。

卡尔在 CNBC 的《Squawk Box》节目中表示，潜在的直播超出了 FCC 的监管权力范围。五角大楼尚未表明此次处决将在电视上播出，各大网络电视台也未表示计划传输该信号。但如果没有相关限制，广播公司仍可能接收直播信号。

当被问及如果五角大楼官员希望播出，FCC 是否会允许时，卡尔回答道：“最终，我们将听从赫格塞斯（Hegseth）秘书及其关于如何推进此事的决定。”

Instagram 和 Facebook 的母公司 Meta 自 2019 年起就禁止在其平台上直播死刑。TikTok 的一名发言人则提及了其关于暴力内容的政策，该政策规定，该视频分享服务不允许描绘“某人死亡的瞬间”。

Meta、YouTube 和 X 没有就如何将相关政策应用于哈桑处决的直播或后续片段的问题做出回应。

联合国和国际特赦组织迅速谴责了直播哈桑处决的计划。美国天主教主教会议（范斯有时在公开场合与其持有不同意见）也将此次处决的直播称为“对死亡文化的野蛮推广”。

在华盛顿，一些共和党人也表示反对这一举措。

来自北卡罗来纳州、即将退休的共和党参议员汤姆·蒂利斯（Thom Tillis）周四在 X 上写道，哈桑“应该面临死刑”，但将其处决公开化并进行直播是“令人极其厌恶的”。

“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，”他说，“这不应该发生在美利坚合众国。”

犹他州参议员约翰·柯蒂斯（John Curtis）和佐治亚州众议员奥斯汀·斯科特（Austin Scott）均为共和党人，他们也反对该计划，并敦促赫格塞斯重新考虑。

唐纳德·特朗普总统本周批准了对哈桑执行枪决。哈桑曾是一名美国陆军精神科医生，2009 年在德克萨斯州胡德堡的士兵准备处理中心枪击了数十人。在应对袭击的警员将其击中后，哈桑因部分瘫痪而使用轮椅。

特朗普在任期间支持联邦政府使用死刑，并扩大了执行方式。他周五表示，计划处死哈桑是合理的。

“我们要给一个人执行死刑……通过行刑队，而且他罪有应得，”特朗普在周一假期前的哥伦布日活动上表示。

虽然少数国家仍执行公开死刑，但美国政府批准的死刑执行长期以来一直不对公众开放。

根据非营利组织死刑信息中心（Death Penalty Information Center）的数据，哈桑的被处决将标志着美国自1961年以来首次执行军事死刑。该组织称，军方最后一次已知的行刑队处决是通过“步枪齐射”在1945年11月9日完成的。

总部位于华盛顿的技术传播顾问努·韦克斯勒（Nu Wexler）表示，科技行业在决定如何应对在网上分享处决片段的尝试时，不应感到困难。

“平台没有义务仅仅因为国家制作了某种场面就去放大这种国家奇观，”韦克斯勒说。“对于一些圣战网络来说，哈桑是一个殉道者形象，每一段被保留的剪辑都是宣传的原材料。无论五角大楼如何施压，该行业已经知道应该如何处理这种情况。”

除了少数仍允许国家批准公开处决的国家外，恐怖组织也一直将自己杀人的片段作为宣传和恐吓的工具。

2014年，伊斯兰国（Islamic State）推广了以处决方式杀害美国记者詹姆斯·福莱（James Foley）的视频。曾在当时被称为 Twitter 的公司工作的韦克斯勒表示，那个时刻促使该行业在删除违禁内容方面变得更加积极。

关于公开处决的须知，以及为何美国停止了这一做法

美国国防部宣布将对计划中对福特胡德枪击案凶手尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（Nidal Malik Hasan）的处决进行现场直播，这颠覆了数十年来关于死刑的既定惯例。

如果付诸实施，这将是已知美国当局首次向公众直播处决过程的视频。根据死刑信息中心（Death Penalty Information Center）的数据，这也将是美国数十年来首次公开处决，也是自1961年以来美国军方的首次处决，以及自第二次世界大战以来首次通过枪决执行的军事死刑。

这一公告引发了许多法律和伦理问题，包括此类活动将如何广播以及谁有权观看。

那么，美国最后一次执行公开处决是什么时候？还有哪些国家在这样做？以下是相关须知。

美国最后一次公开处决是什么时候？

1936年在肯塔基州对雷尼·贝西亚（Rainey Bethea）的绞刑被广泛认为是美国最后一次高关注度的公开处决，尽管随后在1937年的密苏里州还发生过一次公开处决。

根据监测资本刑罚的非营利组织死刑信息中心（DPIC）称，贝西亚是一名黑人，在承认强奸并杀害一名70岁的白人女性利希亚·爱德华兹（Lischia Edwards）后，因强奸罪被公开绞死，尽管他从未被指控谋杀罪。

DPIC表示，为了避免因预计的人群过多而损坏法院草坪，这次绞刑是在肯塔基州欧文斯伯勒的一个停车场内执行的。

据估计，当时有高达20,000人目睹了他的死亡。现场的一张照片显示，大批人群围在绞刑架周围观看，当时的报道将其描述为一种狂欢节般的氛围。

目击者瑞秋·艾博特（Rachel Abbott）在2016年告诉西肯塔基大学（WKU）公共广播电台，她记得自己五岁时观看过这一幕，并在多年后为此做噩梦。“每当想起这件事，我依然会流泪，”她说。

次年还发生了一次公开处决，罗斯科·“红”·杰克逊（Roscoe “Red” Jackson）在密苏里州被绞死。根据美联社当时的一篇报道，大约有500名镇民观看了这次绞刑。DPIC将杰克逊的绞刑认定为美国最后一次公开处决。

为什么美国停止了公开处决？

DPIC认为，在美国，围绕贝西亚绞刑所产生的奇观效应促使了公开处决的终结。

科罗拉多大学博尔德分校的荣休教授、处决专家迈克尔·L·拉德莱特（Michael L. Radelet）告诉美联社，随着处决演变成大众娱乐活动，且越来越多的人目睹了失败的绞刑，人们的担忧日益增加，从而导致了政策的改变。

但在某些高关注度案件中，处决过程仍然允许大量人员观看。2001年，俄克拉荷马城爆炸案凶手蒂莫西·麦克维（Timothy McVeigh）被执行注射死刑，选定的人员可以通过闭路电视（CCTV）观看。

虽然约有2,000名幸存者和亲属有资格观看，但大多数人选择不看。据《邮报》当时报道，大约有230人选择观看。在选择观看的人中，许多人将其描述为一次令人难忘但并不令人满意地经历，有些人表示，看到他的死亡看起来毫无痛苦，这让他们感到愤慨。

哪些国家仍执行公开死刑？

大赦国际表示，关于全球执行死刑数量的公开记录十分有限，部分国家将此类数据视为国家机密。

根据该组织最新的死刑报告，2025年至少执行了17起公开死刑，其中包括在阿富汗执行的6起和在伊朗执行的11起。伊朗国家媒体还报道了2026年在伊朗执行的两起公开死刑，这两起死刑涉及两名被指控在反政府抗议期间杀害四名警察的男子。美联社报道称，伊朗的公开死刑通常针对政治犯，并在公共广场上执行，使用安装在卡车上的起重机作为绞刑架。

媒体报道和联合国还记录了索马里的公开死刑，而人权观察组织和英国议员则发表声明谴责沙特阿拉伯的公开死刑。

大赦国际在2009年的一份报告中表示，该组织还收到了关于朝鲜执行公开死刑的报告。

围绕公开死刑有哪些争议？

周四，国防部长皮特·海格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）表示，他希望人们能够观看哈桑（Hasan）的死刑执行过程，“因为人们需要明白，这类行为会带来严重的后果。”

英国伯明翰城市大学的人权教授乔恩·约克（Jon Yorke）质疑，将采取什么样的保障措施来确保儿童无法看到相关内容。

他在一次采访中表示：“我的直觉反应是，这让我们回到了中世纪，”并称美国人目睹此类事件是“适得其反”的。

约克表示，停止公开死刑的决定还与维护死亡尊严的概念相关，而直播将破坏这一点。他说：“国家不应被视为在采取与罪犯相同的暴力和创伤行为。”

尼达尔·哈桑：注定被处决的前陆军少校

胡德堡枪击者。

他被判定犯有何罪？

在特朗普政府批准对其执行枪决并表示将向公众直播后，尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（Nidal Malik Hasan）的预定执行日期成为了全国新闻头条。

前陆军精神科医生 尼达尔·哈桑

如果该计划得以实施，这可能标志着美国在经历了自 20 世纪 30 年代以来就再未出现公开处决后，一次非同寻常的回归。

那么，尼达尔·哈桑是谁？他被判定犯有何罪？以下是关于这位胡德堡枪击者的相关信息。

尼达尔·哈桑是谁？

尼达尔·马利克·哈桑当时是一名陆军少校兼精神科医生，他在 2009 年在德克萨斯州胡德堡（Fort Hood）发动了一场枪击暴行，导致 13 人死亡，32 人受伤。

杀戮发生在胡德堡的士兵准备处理中心，当时部队在部署前往阿富汗之前在那里进行体检。

哈桑是一名在美国出生的穆斯林，原定也部署前往阿富汗。据《邮报》当时报道，在事件过程中，他大喊“Allahu akbar!”（意为“真主至大”），并用手枪瞄准士兵。

在被军事警察制止之前，他发射了 200 多发子弹，目前他胸部以下瘫痪。

在为期 22 天的军事法庭审理中，哈桑被判定 13 项预谋谋杀罪和 32 项预谋谋杀未遂罪成立。

法庭获悉，他精心策划了这次袭击，在当地靶场进行训练，并在电脑上研究圣战。

他的死刑判决是由 13 名高级军官组成的小组一致通过的。根据军事规则，如果其中一名成员提出反对，他将被判处终身监禁。

在审判期间，哈桑担任自己的律师，没有传唤证人，也没有提供证词。在开庭陈述中，他表示他决定在一次他认为是以美国对抗伊斯兰教的战争中“转换阵营”。

关于他被枪决的情况我们知道什么？

本周，陆军代理部长表示，哈桑的执行日期定于 12 月 3, 在德克萨斯州胡德堡进行。

他将被面对枪决队，该命令得到了总统唐纳德·特朗普的批准。

周四，国防部长皮特·海格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）确认该事件将进行直播。

监测死刑的非营利组织“死刑信息中心”（Death Penalty Information Center）表示，此前没有“在互联网上直播处决或以其他方式向公众广泛公开”的先例。

国防部周五没有详细说明计划如何广播此次处决，但表示后续将公布更多细节。

美国天主教最高主教称该计划“野蛮”

作者：MICHELLE BOORSTEIN

美国天主教主教会议主席周五表示，国防部决定直播尼达尔·哈桑的处决是“对死亡文化的野蛮推广”。

俄克拉荷马城大主教保罗·科克利（Paul Coakley）在的一份声明中说：“即使是对造成严重伤害的人进行公开处决，也只会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。”

哈桑定于 12 月 3, 被枪决，这将是自 1945 年以来美国军方首次已知的枪决执行。

ELECTION 2026

民调显示：在关键的缅因州参议院之战中，民主党候选人领先柯林斯

可能投票者在多个重大议题上更倾向于挑战者杰克逊

作者：利兹·古德温 (LIZ GOODWIN) 和 斯科特·克莱门特 (SCOTT CLEMENT)

一项由《华盛顿邮报》与沙尔学院（Schar School）开展的民调显示，在参议院关键战场缅因州，距离选举日不足一个月，民主党人特罗伊·杰克逊（Troy Jackson）比共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯（Susan Collins）略占优势。

在 9 月 30 日至 10 月 5, 针对 800 名可能投票者进行的民调中，杰克逊获得了 50% 的支持，而柯林斯为 46%。此次民调是在两人本周进行 4 场辩论中的首场交锋之前完成的。杰克逊的领先幅度在抽样误差范围之内。柯林斯是参议院拨款委员会主席，目前正寻求第六个任期；在 2024. 投票给卡玛拉·哈里斯（Kamala Harris）的州中，她是今年唯一一名面临连任挑战的共和党参议员。这场竞选是民主党希望夺回参议院控制权的关键环节，目前共和党在参议院持有 53 个席位。

杰克逊曾任州参议院议长。在民主党之前的候选人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳（Graham Platner）于 7 月因一项性侵指控（他对此予以否认）而退出竞选后，杰克逊成为了民主党的提名人。

在可能投票者中，支持唐纳德·特朗普总统的人数不足 4 in 10（36%），这给柯林斯带来了挑战，因为她正努力在这一蓝色州中与这位极不受欢迎的总统保持足够的距离，以维持自己的地位。大多数可能投票者（58%）认为柯林斯在美国参议院中对特朗普的支持过多。

民调中对柯林斯而言仍有亮点。2020 年，尽管在竞选最后一个月的民调中一直落后，但她最终以近 9 个百分点的优势击败了民主党挑战者。

在引导联邦资金流向缅因州的能力方面，选民对柯林斯的偏好比杰克逊高出 24 个百分点，而这正是她此次“争取利益”竞选活动的核心。选民在跨党派合作议题上也更倾向于她，这表明至少有一部分选民认可她的论点，即她与那位不受欢迎的总统保持了一定的距离。

但在其他五个关键议题上，选民更倾向于杰克逊：堕胎（领先 16 个百分点）、减少腐败（15 个百分点）、理解缅因州选民的问题（11 个百分点）、生活成本（11 个百分点）以及医疗保健（9 个百分点）。

堕胎问题是本周早些时候候选人辩论的中心。当时，柯林斯坚持她投票确认最高法院大法官布雷特·M·卡瓦诺（Brett M. Kavanaugh）的决定，而卡瓦诺在 2022. 投票推翻了堕胎权。柯林斯表示，尽管她不同意卡瓦诺关于堕胎的裁决，但她并不后悔自己的投票。她批评了直到 2024, 才卸任缅因州参议院议长的杰克逊，指其过去持有反堕胎立场。

柯林斯还不得不应对 ProPublica 在 9 月发布的一份报告，该报告指称她的团队与一项涉及一名现已被监禁的国防承包商的“付费参与”贿赂计划有关。她否认了这些指控，联邦调查局（FBI）在早前对该承包商的调查中也表示，未发现柯林斯团队有违规行为的证据。

柯林斯则指出了杰克逊的儿子在杰克逊担任州参议员期间担任游说者的经历。（杰克逊表示，其儿子并未因该职位获得任何不正当利益）

缅因州选民将生活成本列为最首要的投票议题。民调显示，大多数可能投票者认为日常必需品对于他们的家庭来说难以负担。63% 的人认为家庭能源和公用事业账单难以负担，62% 的人对汽油有同样看法。54% 和 56% 的选民分别认为医疗保健和杂货难以负担。

两位候选人在公众中的受欢迎程度都不高，但民调显示，更大比例的可能投票者不喜欢柯林斯。51% 的可能投票者对柯林斯的看法是不利的，而不喜欢杰克逊的人比例为 43%。

柯林斯在州内数十年来一直塑造温和派的形象，目前她在州长竞选的民调中大幅领先共和党候选人。民主党候选人汉娜·平格里（Hannah Pingree）的得票率为 49%，而 36% 的潜在选民表示计划投票给共和党人鲍比·查尔斯（Bobby Charles）担任州长。11% 的人表示支持独立候选人里克·本内特（Rick Bennett）。

柯林斯的竞争力也与缅因州选民的整体倾向形成对比，55% 的多数选民更倾向于由民主党控制美国参议院。

“柯林斯在过去表现出了极强的韧性，多次超出预期并克服不利的民调结果以保住席位，”乔治梅森大学沙尔政策与政府学院（Schar School of Policy and Government）的政治学家、院长马克·罗泽尔（Mark Rozell）表示，该学院参与制作了此次民调。“但考虑到今年可能会出现反特朗普和反共和党投票的‘蓝色浪潮’，情况可能会有所不同。”

柯林斯试图将得到参议员伯尼·桑德斯（Bernie Sanders，独立人士，佛蒙特州）支持的杰克逊描绘成对于该州而言过于自由派的人，并批评他支持由政府资助的“全民医疗”（Medicare-for-all）医疗计划及其他政策。但民调显示，这一论点可能无法打动摇摆选民。在独立人士中，52% 的人认为柯林斯“过于保守”，而 40% 的人认为杰克逊“过于自由”。（在所有潜在选民中，48% 的人认为柯林斯在大多数问题上的观点对他们来说“过于保守”，略高于认为杰克逊观点“过于自由”的 43% 的选民。）

大多数潜在选民（55%）也支持“全民医疗”计划。其中独立人士的支持率达 58%。该州大多数共和党人反对这一想法。尽管选民认可柯林斯为缅因州争取到了数百万美元的联邦资金，但她仍面临着选民中反任职者的情绪。当被问及柯林斯担任美国参议员近 30 年的任期是“主要是一件好事，因为她在办事方面更有效率”，还是“主要是一件坏事，因为她是华盛顿问题的一部分”时，52% 的潜在选民认为这是一件坏事，而 38% 的人认为是一件好事。

此次民调由《邮报》与乔治梅森大学沙尔政策与政府学院于 9 月 30 日至 10 月 5 日期间开展，样本是从全州选民数据库中随机抽取的 800 名缅因州潜在选民。实时电话访谈员通过手机（63%）和座机（12%）联系受访者；25% 的受访者通过短信联系并被邀请在线参与调查。所有潜在选民的整体误差幅度为正负 3.6。

塔拉里科在共和党攻击下难以阐明其在跨性别权利上的立场

JOEL ANGEL JUAREZ / 为《华盛顿邮报》拍摄

德克萨斯州参议院候选人詹姆斯·塔拉里科（James Talarico）与德克萨斯州州长民主党候选人吉娜·希诺霍萨（Gina Hinojosa）8月在基林（Killeen）的一次集会上。

塔拉里科（接A1页）

竞选活动或采访中，且这一承诺并未出现在其在线公布的政策立场中。当《华盛顿邮报》多次询问他就职后是否会发起或支持该立法时，其竞选团队最初并未确认他的承诺。

竞选发言人JT·恩尼斯（JT Ennis）在的一份声明中表示：“如果当选，詹姆斯将审查每一项要求他投票的法案，并做出对德克萨斯州人民最有利的选择。”

塔拉里科的书面承诺此前未被报道，其日期可追溯到去年秋天。

在全国性亲LGBTQ+政治团体奥斯汀分会“石墙民主党人”（Stonewall Democrats of Austin）的一份候选人问卷中，他回答道：“如果当选，塔拉里科代表将在美国参议院发起《平等法案》（Equality Act）。”

在1月份寻求美国通信工人联合会（Communications Workers of America）背书的另一份问卷中，他再次确认了支持态度。

塔拉里科写道：“我们必须禁止所有形式的歧视——包括基于性别认同和性取向的歧视。《平等法案》对于保护我们的LGBTQ+社区成员免受歧视至关重要。”

在本文发表后，恩尼斯提供了一份更新后的声明，称塔拉里科“坚持他在问卷中所列的对《平等法案》的支持”。

“任何关于詹姆斯立场发生转变的断言都是不准确的，”恩尼斯说。竞选团队并未解释为何最初不确认塔拉里科对该联邦立法的支持。

《平等法案》的根源可追溯到20 世纪 70 年代，该法案规定，个人不得被拒绝使用“符合该个人性别认同”的共享设施，包括洗手间、更衣室和更衣间。该法案的现代版本已两次在众议院获得通过。

去年，塔拉里科投票反对一项德克萨斯州法案，该法案限制了跨性别者的洗手间使用权，要求在包括学校和大学在内的公共建筑中的任何人，必须使用与其出生性别相对应的洗手间。

当被问及他目前在该问题上的立场，以及塔拉里科是否认为个人应有权使用与其性别认同相对应的设施时，其竞选团队没有直接回答。

“詹姆斯投票反对的是一项过于宽泛的法案，该法案可能会使年轻人遭受毫无根据的身体搜查，”恩尼斯说。

尽管共和党在德克萨斯州参议院选举中的支出远超民主党，但塔拉里科在民调中继续领先于帕克斯顿（Paxton）。帕克斯顿在 2023 年被德克萨斯州众议院弹劾，但随后被该州参议院宣判无罪。在肯·帕克斯顿（Ken Paxton）被指控不忠后，其妻子、州参议员安吉拉·帕克斯顿（Angela Paxton）去年以“圣经理由”申请离婚。

塔拉里科及其竞选团队一直坚称他没有改变任何立场。但在上个月接受福克斯新闻（Fox News）采访时，当被问及 2021 年关于存在六种性别的言论时，他表示自己在“过去的一些表述中未能准确表达”。塔拉里科在反对一项要求学生必须参加与其出生证明性别相对应的运动队的州法案时发表了该言论。

在同一场福克斯新闻采访中，塔拉里科表示，“如果会危及安全或公平，他将反对跨性别运动员参加女子体育赛事”，并且他将“绝对”支持一项禁止未成年人进行性别转换手术的联邦法案。

在立法机构中，塔拉里科（Talarico）曾对一项禁止未成年人进行性别转换手术及使用青春期阻断剂的法案投了反对票。他曾提交一项修正案，规定如果遵守该法案的限制会干扰医生的希波克拉底誓言，则医生可获得豁免。塔拉里科还投票支持一项由民主党发起的修正案，旨在将该法案的禁令仅限于手术。

塔拉里科试图与过去某些立场保持距离的尝试，在部分 LGBTQ+ 活动人士和领导者中反响不佳。德克萨斯州石墙民主党人（Texas Stonewall Democrats）的领导人罗伯特·巴尔加斯三世（Robert Vargas III）发表了一篇题为《跨性别德州人值得拥有比政治模糊更好的待遇》的声明，称塔拉里科的言论“代表其立场发生了重大转变，而这种转变值得进行严肃的讨论”。

“我们期待更好的表现，”Equality Texas 的首席执行官布拉德·普里切特（Brad Pritchett）在塔拉里科上个月接受福克斯新闻采访后的一份声明中表示。

但这些领导人仍然支持塔拉里科，他们解释说，他过去支持 LGBTQ+ 权利的记录很强，而且他比他的对手是更好的选择，因为其对手作为德克萨斯州总检察长，一直致力于限制跨性别者的权利。

“初选政治和普选政治是不同的，”巴尔加斯说。“现在，詹姆斯·塔拉里科需要赢得选举，而我们对他过去所持立场的正直程度有足够的信心，知道当詹姆斯·塔拉里科当选后，他会支持我们的群体。”

“我相信，如果他说他将发起支持《平等法案》（Equality Act）——据我所知，目前还没有任何迹象、声明或政策变动表明他不会这样做。”

多年来，共和党人一直攻击民主党对跨性别权利的支持，特别是针对参与体育运动和儿童性别转换手术的问题。民调显示，大多数美国人对于跨性别运动员参加与其出生性别不同的运动队感到不安，民主党人也日益寻求明确表示他们支持某些限制措施。

周四——就在唐纳德·特朗普总统使用一个反跨性别歧视词汇给她起绰号几天后——南卡罗来纳州的民主党参议院提名人、医生安妮·安德鲁斯（Annie Andrews）出现在一段广告中，她身穿白大褂表示，她不支持“未成年人的性别手术”。

“我希望你们能清楚地听到我的话。我不支持生物学男性参加女性体育赛事，”这位儿科医生还说道。

在塔拉里科接受福克斯采访几天后，在休斯顿的一次由普里切特和其他 LGBTQ+ 领导者（包括人权运动组织 HRC）赞助的筹款活动中，这位候选人告诉与会者，他的言论完整语境并不清晰，且采访片段被剪辑过。

在周一与记者的简报会上，人权运动组织（HRC）主席凯利·罗宾逊（Kelley Robinson）表示，参加休斯顿活动的人告诉她，塔拉里科解释说，跨性别儿童可以在不干扰安全或公平的情况下参加体育运动。她补充说，他还阐明了他在性别转换护理方面的立场，认为政治家不应干涉医生诊室内的决定。

但在上周发布的一则广告中，塔拉里科强调了他反对未成年人进行性别转换手术的立场，而这一问题正是共和党人用来攻击他的切入点。

“不，我不支持给孩子做变性手术，”塔拉里科说。

奥巴马对民主党参议院前景感到惊叹

前总统认为一些处于竞争状态的州是他“无法想象的”

作者：LIZ GOODWIN

根据提供给《华盛顿邮报》的摘录，前总统巴拉克·奥巴马在周三晚上的一次私人筹款活动中，对民主党不断扩大的中期选举版图表示惊讶，但警告捐款人不要对该党的胜算产生自满情绪。

“现在有一些处于竞争状态的州，是我之前无法想象会进入竞争状态的，”奥巴马在弗吉尼亚州格雷特福尔斯的一次炉边谈话中告诉捐款人。此次谈话的参与者还包括民主党参议院竞选委员会副主席、参议员丽莎·布朗特·罗切斯特（民主党-特拉华州）。“如果你告诉我——我知道我是那个‘希望之子’——但如果你告诉我目前的民调显示詹姆斯·塔拉里科领先于肯·帕克斯顿……我会说，额，我不这么认为。”

塔拉里科是德克萨斯州的一名民主党州议员，在大多数公开民调中领先于该州的共和党总检察长帕克斯顿。

奥巴马还提到堪萨斯州和内布拉斯加州竞争激烈的参议院选战，以及参议员乔恩·奥索夫在佐治亚州巨大的民调领先优势，认为这些都是他此前不会相信的数据点。

但奥巴马向在场人员警告称，赢得这些选举远非板上钉钉。

“所有这些显示我们领先两三分或处于势均力敌状态的选战，我们最终可能会全部以两分之差落败，”他说。“这在误差范围之内。”

这位前总统在最近几周加大了对中期选举的参与度，宣布即将前往密歇根州为参议院候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德助选，并拍摄广告支持关键战场地区的候选人。此前，他曾出现在爱荷华州参议院候选人乔什·图雷克的广告中，并参加了塔拉里科的一次活动。

这次为民主党参议院竞选机构举行的筹款活动筹集了 $3.600 万。在由与特朗普结盟的超级政治行动委员会 MAGA Inc. 推动下，共和党团体在资金上拥有明显的优势。

奥巴马向捐款人描绘了国家现状的阴暗图景，并强调了当前政治时刻的紧迫性，称如果特朗普政府继续在不受制约的情况下走目前的道路，他认为这将是对民主的威胁。

他批评最高法院未能针对特朗普政府“坚守底线”，并强调了民主党控制参议院对司法机构的重要性，因为联邦司法提名需要参议院批准。

“如果你让特朗普在不受惩罚的情况下再行动两年，再加上额外的司法任命，以至于在某个时间点天平可能会向他获得全权委托的方向倾斜，那么除了糟糕的政策之外，你现在还面临着一个非常严重的民主危机，”奥巴马说。

奥巴马表示，如果民主党控制参议院，在谁被任命的问题上可能会产生“巨大的影响”。

“我想说，在我们的民主面临挑战的这一时刻，司法机构虽然有所弯曲但并未崩溃，”奥巴马说。“我们看到它在一些重要领域坚守了底线。而在没有坚守底线的程度之深，则体现在最高法院身上。”

奥巴马将“信任的崩溃、公共话语的粗鄙化、对规范的持续违背，以及我们的基本机构——行政部门、国会、法院——似乎都被腐蚀的方式”，描述为国家走在错误道路上的迹象。

“如果我们发现我们的孩子在做其中一些事情，他们会受到严重的惩罚，对吧？”奥巴马在谈到公职人员的行为时说道。“因此，我们都能感觉到一种行为标准的下降，这种下降已经超出了任何具体的政策范畴。”

奥巴马赞扬了参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默（Chuck Schumer，民主党-纽约州）在招募候选人方面的努力，他称这些候选人能够代表其所在州及其文化，并特别提到图雷克（Turek）对关税的关注，以及阿拉斯加州民主党候选人玛丽·佩尔托拉（Mary Peltola）“全身心关注渔业”。

“担任民主党的领导人真是件令人头疼的事，因为你面对的是来自各行各业的人，”奥巴马说道。

他表示，面对如此迥异的候选人，要塑造一个统一的民主党信息可能具有挑战性，但民主党人被所有成员共同拥有的核心价值观所团结在一起。

“我可以这么说，我期待民主党人坚持以尊严和尊重对待每一个人，”他说道。奥巴马还列举了其他核心价值观，包括对不同性取向人群的公平对待、男女平等、确保经济不再被“操纵”，以及相信政府应当为每个孩子提供良好的教育。

“并不是说我们没有指路明灯，而是我们必须能够让候选人们有能力将这些核心价值观转化为能够与他们所在州的特殊情况相契合且能引起共鸣的方式，”奥巴马说。“我认为我们做得非常出色。”

共和党州长候选人之妻称其并非虐待者

科罗拉多州共和党人维克多·马克斯（Victor Marx）在6月的一次初选选举观礼派对上迎接支持者。 CHRISTIAN MURDOCK / GAZETTE / AP

作者：MAEGAN VAZQUEZ

他承认曾将年幼的儿子“扔过房间”。他说，自己在孩童时期，继父曾强迫他杀死一个人。

现在，一段关于科罗拉多州共和党州长提名人维克多·马克斯的播客片段再次浮出水面，其中他描述了自己曾如何将妻子猛力撞在门上的经历。

对手认为，他的陈述表明其有暴力行为史。但与其结婚39年的妻子艾琳·马克斯（Eileen Marx）表示，这些言论被断章取义了。她说，她的丈夫并非家庭虐待者。

“维克多曾是我的武术教练，”她在马克斯竞选团队本周分享的一段视频中说道，“而且我们在道场之外也会练习。”

61岁的马克斯是一名海军陆战队退伍军人、武术黑带以及基督教社交媒体名人。他正挑战民主党提名人、科罗拉多州总检察长菲尔·韦泽（Phil Weiser），旨在接替州长贾里德·波利斯（Jared Polis，民主党）的职位。在科罗拉多州，已有十年没有共和党人当选州级公职。在周二一场与“家庭暴力意识月”相关的新闻发布会上，科罗拉多州民主党人谈到了“韦泽与共和党州长提名人维克多·马克斯之间的显著差异”。

马克斯自称是身体和性虐待的幸存者，他否认了虐待妻子或孩子的指控。他的竞选团队未回应置评请求。

科罗拉多州共和党的一位发言人表示：“马克斯及其妻子均已声明，对该事件的描述是不正确的。”

“科罗拉多州的选民选择了马克斯作为共和党候选人，”玛丽·伊丽莎白·法比安-雷丁（Mary Elizabeth Fabian-Redding）在声明中说道。她表示，州党主席克雷格·斯坦纳（Craig Steiner）“谴责一切家庭暴力行为，并鼓励受害者寻求安全”。

这段来自拜伦·罗杰斯（Byron Rodgers）“保护者国家”（Protector Nation）播客的2021年片段，是马克斯在反建制竞选期间引发争议的最新事件。在他自己的播客中，他曾描述过将年幼的儿子扔过房间的情景。“他撞到了床……然后撞到了墙上，”他在2020年的一集节目中说道，“然后他开始哭了起来。”

“我永远不会忘记那一刻，”他在2022年妻子播客的一集节目中说道，“他没有受到身体伤害，因为我的目标是床，但这一定吓坏了他的小小心灵。那是我想起自己不正常或不健康的第一时刻。”

他没有说明该事件发生的具体时间和地点。

马克斯曾多次公开讲述，在他7岁时，他的继父将他带到密西西比州的农村地区，强迫他开枪打死一个人。

他说他后来向执法部门报告了此事。但目前尚未出现符合该细节的谋杀案证据。

在初选期间，这位自称“高风险人道主义者”的人被一名记者问到，那是否是他杀死的唯一一个人。

“作为孩子时，是的。毫无疑问，”马克斯告诉丹佛的9News，“但在其他情况下，你知道，在其他国家，可能有人因为我进行自我防卫而死亡。那没有具体计数。”

当被追问他是否认为自己杀死了更多人时，他部分回应道：“这重要吗？”

马克斯是“万事皆有可能”（All Things Possible）的创始人，这是一个基督教事工组织，声称致力于打击性贩卖、虐待和家庭暴力，并支持受害者。

关于与妻子的互动，他说当时是在鼓励她坚持自我防卫训练。他说，他试图在对方不备时，通过“抓住她并将其猛撞在我们的前门上”来测试她。

他在播客片段中说，她当时“弯下腰开始哭泣，面向相反方向”。但这其实是一个圈套：“当我准备抓住她时，她突然转身，直接踢在我的行李上，我被踢离了地面。”

这段剪辑最初由《每日野兽》（Daily Beast）在上月底重新挖掘。在马克斯（Marx）竞选团队周二分享的视频中，艾琳·马克斯（Eileen Marx）证实了维克多（Victor）的说法。

“他把我推到门边，想看看我是否能自卫，”她说，“我假装哭泣好让他靠近，然后对着他的腹股沟来了一记后踢。”

“我是在向他证明，即使他不在场，我也能保护自己。”

在 9News 记者凯尔·克拉克（Kyle Clark）分享的一段与竞选支持者的视频通话中，马克斯表示他会“再次这样做”。

马克斯在 6 月的初选中以不足 3,000 票的优势击败了共和党建制派青睐的巴布·基克迈尔（Barb Kirkmeyer），他一直塑造一种“局外人”形象。他曾表示自己是保守派活动人士查理·柯克（Charlie Kirk）的朋友和导师，并获得了众议员劳伦·博伯特（Lauren Boebert，共和党-科罗拉多州）的背书。

民主党候选人韦泽（Weiser）在这场竞选中占据绝对优势。他周二告诉记者，马克斯关于女性的一些言论“只能被总结为指责受害者”。马克斯此前辩称，韦泽的批评缺乏语境。

马克斯上周表示，选举结束后，他打算针对竞选期间出现的虚假指控采取法律行动。他并未具体说明可能会针对哪些指控、个人或组织。

亚利桑那州众议院候选人称在修整竞选标志时遭到强奸

作者：PRAVEENA SOMASUNDARAM

一名亚利桑那州国会候选人周四表示，她在 8 月份于其选区修整竞选标志时遭到了性侵。

亚利桑那州第 8 国会选区的民主党提名人伯纳黛特·格林-普拉森蒂亚（Bernadette Greene-Placentia）表示，8 月 14 日清晨，她在亚利桑那州太阳城（Sun City）修整标志时，两名男子从身后袭击她，并在一个停车场对其进行了性侵。

她于 8 月 31 日向马里科帕县（Maricopa County）警长办公室报案。该办公室表示，在调查期间拒绝发表评论。

格林-普拉森蒂亚是一名长途卡车司机和小企业主，她表示公开讲述此事是为了支持其他遭受过性暴力的女性。

她在声明中说：“我从未想象过我必须讲述这个故事，但我知道，经历过类似事情的女性绝不止我一个。”

她说：“太多的幸存者在沉默中承受着这些经历。我之所以发声，是因为我想让他们知道，他们被关注着，被倾听着，而且他们并不孤单。”

她表示将继续她的竞选活动。她的竞争对手是共和党众议员亚伯拉罕·哈马德（Abraham Hamadeh），后者在 2024 年以 13 个百分点的优势赢得了该选区。

曾任马里科帕县检察官的哈马德呼吁进行彻底调查。

他在周四的一份声明中表示：“任何美国人在自己的社区中都不应成为犯罪的受害者。”

格林-普拉森蒂亚首先在周三由《凤凰城新时报》（Phoenix New Times）发布的一篇报道中讲述了她的经历。她的披露是在康奈尔大学发生一起涉嫌团伙强奸的报道之后，该事件的细节引发了关于性侵案件处理方式的讨论。

特朗普成立委员会评估库克涉嫌抵押贷款欺诈的指控

美联储报道（接A1版）

据 ABC News 报道，总统已提醒库克，他正在“考虑”将其从美联储理事会中撤职，并要求在三周内做出回应。

总统指称，库克将两处房产申报为主要居所，以获得更优惠的抵押贷款利率，并将她涉嫌的行为定性为“欺骗性且具有潜在犯罪性质的行为”，或者至少是“严重的过失”。此前，联邦住房金融局局长比尔·普尔特（Bill Pulte）指称她伪造记录并要求展开调查，随后在去年要求库克辞职。

库克在提交给最高法院的文件中“毫不含糊地”否认了这些指控。

该争议涉及库克在 2021 年购买的一处位于亚特兰大的公寓。在至少一份表格中，她将该公寓列为她的“主要”居所，但事实并非如此。她表示，这一表述是“无意间的疏忽”，且与此次购买相关的其他文件已明确该房产为度假屋。

库克的律师诺姆·艾森（Norm Eisen）和阿比·洛威尔（Abbe Lowell）在社交媒体上发布的一份声明中写道，库克没有实施抵押贷款欺诈，且将被判定无罪。他们表示，目前正与白宫进行沟通。

美联储理事丽莎·库克于 1 月离开最高法院。

“鉴于总统一再表示，无论事实和证据如何，他已经决定解雇库克理事——我们严重怀疑这次‘听证会’是否合法且符合法律，”律师们写道。

密歇根大学法学教授、行政法专家丹尼尔·A·克雷恩（Daniel A. Crane）表示，特朗普确实有途径撤除库克，但过程可能会很漫长。

“总统不能因为政治原因撤除丽莎·库克或任何其他美联储理事，只能因‘正当理由’（for cause）撤职，”克雷恩说。“法院没有给出非常精确的定义，但表示，至少需要某种与其履行官方职责相关的严重违规行为。”

克雷恩表示，目前尚不清楚政府能否证明抵押贷款欺诈，而且即使能证明，是否能达到法院规定的撤除库克的标准。

此外，克雷恩表示，法院已明确库克有权获得对其指控的通知以及回应的机会。他表示，任何行动都可由法院进行审查。

“这可能会花费很长时间，”克雷恩说。“这一切会在 2028 年之前发生吗？”

克雷恩是指特朗普的任期结束，如果届时问题尚未解决，总统解雇库克的努力可能会变得毫无意义。

埃尔-赛义德与罗杰斯在密歇根州舞台上毫不留情

在这场关键参议院席位的激烈辩论中，甚至连母亲都没有被豁免

作者：ERIN COX

在密歇根州竞争激烈的美国参议院首场辩论中，民主党人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德（Abdul El-Sayed）与共和党人迈克·罗杰斯（Mike Rogers）展开了猛烈且快速的交锋。这场竞选对于决定哪个政党控制参议院至关重要。

两人在外交政策、医疗保健、职业选择以及个人房地产持有情况方面互相攻击——甚至就对方的母亲互出恶言。

这场竞选的好斗基调在社交媒体和付费电视广告中已酝酿数月，而周四的相互抨击则进一步升级。两名候选人都旨在削弱对方政党的传统基本盘。

唐纳德·特朗普总统在整个竞选过程中一直是一个核心人物，在辩论中也不例外，他既是埃尔-赛义德攻击的靶子，也是罗杰斯小心维持平衡的话题。

总统曾两次赢得密歇根州，但随着伊朗战争及其关税政策推高生活成本，他的支持率有所下降。

这场由 NewsNation 主持的辩论展示了罗杰斯（前国会议员及 FBI 特工）与埃尔-赛义德（拥有医学学位的罗德学者）之间有时近乎刻薄的嘲讽。

作为一名公共卫生官员，埃尔-赛义德如果当选，将成为美国首位穆斯林参议员。他的身份一直是共和党人攻击的核心线索，而这种方式已引发民主党人对其伊斯兰恐惧症的指责。

以下是这场中期选举中最受关注的辩论之五大要点：

这两人确实互不相容

这场辩论中的相互攻击早已超越了政策层面，迅速转向人身攻击，双方就游艇所有权、诚实度、捐赠者以及海外房地产展开了抨击。

两人频繁且长时间地打断对方，以至于辩论主持人里克·阿尔宾（Rick Albin）在某个时刻不得不插话道：“我也想参与到这场辩论中来。”

到那时，埃尔-赛义德（El-Sayed）已经提到了罗杰斯（Rogers）的“两艘游艇”，并称“他唯一关心的是他自己的权力”；而罗杰斯则称埃尔-赛义德为“骗子”和“出故障的AI聊天机器人”，并指责他在中东拥有豪华房产。

在某个时刻，面对埃尔-赛义德对他连珠炮般的质问，罗杰斯对主持人说：“我是在接受他的采访，而不是你的。”

在辩论的不同阶段，罗杰斯称埃尔-赛义德并非真正的医生，在国籍问题上撒谎，收受恐怖组织支持者的资金，且其母亲曾为这些组织工作。（埃尔-赛义德否认了所有这些指控。）

“就这样吧。让我们把这个麻烦事摊开来说，”罗杰斯在开始谈论埃尔-赛义德的母亲时说道。

“你在攻击我的母亲，”埃尔-赛义德说。

“我随时欢迎拿我的母亲来比，”罗杰斯说，并补充道他的母亲在当地商会工作。

当罗杰斯试图引导观众访问一个他声称记录了埃尔-赛义德已删除社交媒体帖子的网站时，埃尔-赛义德面无表情地回应道：“你建了个网站。太棒了。为你感到高兴。”

即便在摄像机关闭的广告休息期间，争吵仍在继续。

“他们还在继续争论谁在什么地方拥有什么样的房子，以及房子值多少钱，”主持人事后表示。

这场竞选如此胶着是有充分原因的

自劳动节以来，民调一致显示这场竞选处于势均力敌的状态，埃尔-赛义德的领先幅度处于误差范围之内或略高于误差范围。

这场辩论揭示了一个主要原因：在这样一个分裂的州，两位截然不同的候选人就如何改善选民的生活提出了截然不同的理论。

埃尔-赛义德强调“从摇篮到坟墓”的公共医疗保健，通过向亿万富翁征税来减轻联邦债务，停止对外国军队的援助，限制投资公司收购单户住宅，并改革竞选资金制度，以防止企业和私人捐赠者主导政治话语。

“我认为亿万富翁赚到第二个十亿并不重要。我认为让普通人能够赚到他们的第一个 $100,000 更加重要，”埃尔-赛义德说。

罗杰斯认为埃尔-赛义德的愿景成本过高且不切实际。

“我们负担不起阿卜杜尔（Abdul），”罗杰斯说，他建议采取汽油价格上限、为农民提供应对柴油价格的“农业”信用额度，以及削减繁文缛节以简化住房建设。

埃尔-赛义德主张建立联邦护栏以限制人工智能和备受争议的 Flock 监控摄像头。罗杰斯建议由地方控制这些摄像头，随后再次攻击埃尔-赛义德的家人。

他说，监控摄像头对于打击恐怖主义至关重要。“这为什么会让你困扰？嗯，除非你的家人中有人可能在监视名单上……”

以色列与加沙仍是冲突焦点

埃尔-赛义德认为以色列在加沙的战争是一场种族灭绝，且美国应停止向外国军队提供无条件援助。这一立场主导了他与众议员海莉·史蒂文斯（Haley Stevens）的初选之争，并且至今仍是一些民主党人拒绝支持他的关键原因。

罗杰斯利用这一点将其转化为自己的优势，指责埃尔-赛义德拒绝承认哈马斯10月 7, 袭击以色列的三周年纪念。他指责埃尔-赛义德接受了与该恐怖组织及真主党有联系的人员的资金。

埃尔-赛义德对此予以否认。关于10月 7 事件，他说：“我已经谴责过了。我没有像你刚才那样把它变成一场政治表演。”

尽管面对数千万美元的攻击性广告，埃尔-赛义德并未在加沙问题上的立场上退缩，他主张美国需要重新思考其外交政策，不应将纳税人的钱用于海外军事行动，而应将其用于加强国内政策目标。

他说，以色列已将美国推向与伊朗的战争。

“问问你自己：因为那场战争我们更安全了吗？他想要对外国政府提供无条件支持。而我想要对我们学校里的孩子们提供无条件支持，”埃尔-赛义德说道。

罗杰斯在特朗普问题上如履薄冰

罗杰斯一直是特朗普的支持者，在8月 4 初选前曾与他共同竞选，并依赖总统深厚的资金储备来帮助赢得这场选举。

随着特朗普的受欢迎程度日益下降，将罗杰斯与白宫挂钩成了埃尔-赛义德的主要攻击主题。在辩论期间，埃尔-赛义德指责这位共和党人是某个人的“傀儡”

他说，选民关注的关键问题是：“你是否要选出一位想要对抗特朗普议程的密歇根州美国参议员？”

本周，罗杰斯在一项给密歇根州选民带来经济损害的特朗普关键政策上立场反转：即针对邻国加拿大的关税。

“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争，”罗杰斯在本周发布的一则竞选广告中说道。这与他上个月的言论形成了鲜明对比，当时罗杰斯在声明中表示，特朗普“坚持美国优先是正确的——关税是必要的，但并非万能的解决方案”。

在辩论中被问及这一反转时，罗杰斯表示他本周给白宫打了电话，建议特朗普“达成协议”以取消对加拿大的关税。

罗杰斯通过将明尼阿波利斯的ICE执法（在该事件中两名抗议者被联邦特工杀害）描述为“可能不恰当”，进一步拉开了自己与总统的距离。

埃尔-赛义德反击道：“他说这‘可能’不对。我的意思是，这‘绝对’不对。他们杀了两个人。”

辩论结束后，罗杰斯表示，如果特朗普选择在密歇根州为他助选，他将非常欢迎，并称许多人都想听听总统的看法。

两名候选人都在争取对方的票仓

两名候选人都在争取通常倾向于对方票仓的选民群体。

罗杰斯公开向民主党人、关注美以关系的人士，以及底特律的黑人选民发出呼吁；在往年，这些群体通常是民主党获胜联盟的基石。

“我们卖得最快的标语是‘民主党人支持迈克·罗杰斯’，”这位共和党人在辩论后表示。“他仍然面临问题。他一直在进行侮辱。”

埃尔-赛义德一直在该州农村地区和支持特朗普的地区进行竞选，其主题为“不应该这么困难”，将经济的不确定性和物价上涨归咎于共和党人。

他多次出现在福克斯新闻（Fox News）上，并且在辩论期间多次转向经济民粹主义，提及高昂的汽油和食品价格。

随后，埃尔-赛义德否认了其无法统一民主党选票的观点，并指出前总统巴拉克·奥巴马将于本月晚些时候为其助选，且他一直在与曾经的竞争对手格雷琴·惠特默州长，以及两年前击败罗杰斯的、立场更偏向中间派的民主党参议员埃莉莎·斯洛特金共同开展竞选活动。

“我们拥有一个统一的政党，”他说。“现在，听着，当然，你必须始终与不同群体的人沟通，我将继续这样做。”

佐治亚州辩论：现任参议员奥索夫与共和党人柯林斯互相攻击

他们将于周二再次交锋。提前投票将于10月13日开始。

作者：玛丽亚娜·阿尔法罗 (MARIANA ALFARO)

参议员乔恩·奥索夫（Jon Ossoff，佐治亚州民主党）与其共和党挑战者众议员迈克·柯林斯（Mike Collins）在周四的辩论舞台上，就通货膨胀、医疗保健以及柯林斯与表达白人民族主义观点人士的关联问题展开了相互攻击。

柯林斯试图将奥索夫与他所属政党的左翼联系起来，称这位参议员推举的进步派候选人的观点与佐治亚州许多选民的观点相抵触。

这场在亚特兰大举行的时长一小时的辩论由 Atlanta News First 和 Gray Media 主持。这是奥索夫和柯林斯在 11 月 3 日选举前两次会面中的第一次。他们将于周二再次对决。佐治亚州的提前投票将于 10 月 13 日开始。

以下是我们的要点总结：

奥索夫指责柯林斯“偏执”，而共和党候选人则称奥索夫为“激进分子”

奥索夫就柯林斯与被指拥护白人至上主义或发表种族主义和反犹太主义言论的人员之间的关系对其发起攻击。

“迈克·柯林斯通过其个人的偏执以及被广泛记录的与白人民族主义者的联系，给我们的州带来了耻辱，”奥索夫在开场白中说道。

《华盛顿邮报》在 8 月报道称，柯林斯的一名前工作人员在 6 月和 7 月在其 X 账号上分享了万字旗的图像，以及一张描绘其身着三 K 党（Ku Klux Klan）长袍的照片。CNN 在 7 月报道称，柯林斯的女婿大卫·艾伦·谢尔二世（David Alan Scheer II）曾在网上分享纳粹意象。

柯林斯本人的社交媒体动态也面临审查，他在其中分享的帖子被指具有种族主义和反犹太主义色彩。

“你雇佣了半个第三帝国来担任你的国会办公室职员，并且你在网上推广新纳粹内容，”奥索夫对柯林斯说。“如果约翰·刘易斯（John Lewis）今天在从塞尔玛到蒙哥马利的行进中，迈克·柯林斯一定会拿着警棍。”

当一名辩论主持人询问他在晚餐桌上如何与家人讨论其女婿的社交媒体帖子时，柯林斯没有直接回答，但表示他已经“谴责了种族主义、反犹太主义和仇恨”。

柯林斯将奥索夫贴上“激进分子”的标签，抨击这位参议员支持阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德（Abdul El-Sayed），后者是密歇根州参议院的民主党候选人，拥护进步派政策且是以色列的激烈批评者。

“想象一下，作为一个美国参议员，竟然在外面招募、背书并支持这些人，”柯林斯说。“他们希望看到以色列从地图上被抹去。”

候选人就经济、医疗保健展开争论

奥索夫就柯林斯支持唐纳德·特朗普总统的《一个伟大美丽法案》（One Big Beautiful Bill Act）向其施压，该法案包括削减医疗补助（Medicaid）和美国最大的食品援助计划。

“如果你想了解特朗普-柯林斯预算是否帮到了你，只需去加满一箱油就知道了，”奥索夫说。“在迈克·柯林斯和唐纳德·特朗普的领导下，柴油价格处于美国历史上的最高点。现在购买一台农用拖拉机或种植一英亩棉花的成本比以往任何时候都高。”

两名立法者还就医疗成本上升以及佐治亚州农村医院关闭的问题发生了冲突。柯林斯在吹捧特朗普的《一个伟大美丽法案》时表示，该措施为农村医院带来了资金，并将关闭原因归咎于包括《平价医疗法案》（Affordable Care Act）在内的民主党政策。他暗示奥索夫不会理解担心医疗成本是什么感觉，因为他出生在富裕家庭。

对奥索夫而言，这场辩论是面向全国观众发声的机会

对于奥索夫来说，这场辩论是一个面向全国观众发声的机会，因为外界正纷纷猜测他是否会寻求在 2028 年竞选民主党总统提名。

许多民主党人将奥索夫视为该党最有效的传声筒之一。在整个夜晚，奥索夫将特朗普的政策作为他攻击柯林斯的中心。

“自从唐纳德·特朗普当选总统以来，柴油价格上涨了 70%，”奥索夫说。“牛肉和咖啡的价格上涨了 30%。这些关税摧毁了家庭、小企业以及佐治亚州的农业。伊朗战争使汽油价格接近历史最高点。”

他还批评了特朗普领导下的移民与海关执法局（ICE）所采取的手段。

“他们承诺打击最恶劣的罪犯。相反，他们在工作场所抓捕人们，而这些人并没有任何犯罪记录的嫌疑，”奥索夫说。

美国司法部（DOJ）大陪审团调查前白宫助手卡西迪·哈钦森

她是 2021 年 1 月 6 日美国国会大厦袭击事件众议院调查的关键证人

作者：佩里·斯坦 (PERRY STEIN) 和 萨尔瓦多·里佐 (SALVADOR RIZZO)

据两名知情人士透露，美国司法部（DOJ）本周向一个联邦大陪审团提交了针对卡西迪·哈钦森（Cassidy Hutchinson）的证据。哈钦森曾任白宫助手，并且是调查 2021 年 1 月 6, 2021, 美国国会大厦袭击事件的国会委员会的关键证人。

这两名因讨论正在进行的调查而要求匿名的知情人士表示，联邦官员指控哈钦森在就国会大厦袭击相关事件作证时向立法者撒谎。

目前尚不清楚检察官正在考虑的具体指控。但一名知情人士表示，检察官一直在探讨以侵犯民权罪起诉哈钦森，这可能比简单的向国会撒谎指控构成一个更不寻常的案件。

在华盛顿特区针对哈钦森开展的这项联邦大陪审团调查，是美国司法部利用其执法权力打击唐纳德·特朗普总统眼中敌人的最新案例。知情人士称，针对哈钦森的调查始于时任司法部长帕姆·邦迪（Pam Bondi），邦迪在 4 月被特朗普解雇，部分原因是特朗普认为她在处理针对其对手的案件时进展太慢。

虽然审理此案的大陪审团设在华盛顿特区，但知情人士表示，华盛顿特区美国检察官珍妮妮·皮罗（Jeanine Pirro）并未参与此次调查。

相反，知情人士称，此次调查由美国司法部总部的民权司领导。该部门由哈米特·K·迪隆（Harmeet K. Dhillon）领导，她是特朗普的坚定盟友，并将民权司与特朗普政府的政治和文化事业相结合。根据美国司法部的规定，迪隆部门的检察官必须将调查基于民权违规行为。

美国司法部和哈钦森的律师周四未立即回应置评请求。

Punchbowl News 首先报道了大陪审团本周会面听取该案证据的消息。

多年来，特朗普及其盟友一直要求哈钦森承担法律后果。

哈钦森在特朗普的首任政府中担任白宫办公厅主任马克·梅多斯（Mark Meadows）的助手。在特朗普在国会的两名共和党盟友——俄亥俄州众议员吉姆·乔丹（Jim Jordan）和佐治亚州众议员巴里·劳德米尔克（Barry Loudermilk）今年将其移交给司法部，指控其作伪证并要求起诉后，美国司法部开始对她进行调查。

2022, 年，当时 25, 岁的哈钦森向调查国会大厦袭击事件的众议院特别委员会提供了关于特朗普在 1 月 6 提供爆炸性陈述。

根据尼尔森（Nielsen）的数据，她在 2022 年 6 月 28, 2022, 播出的电视听证会上的证词吸引了 1300 万 观众。

在听证会上，哈钦森作证称，尽管特朗普知道支持者持有武器，但仍敦促他们向国会大厦进军。她作证称，当时另一名白宫助手安东尼·奥纳托（Anthony Ornato）告诉她，在被告知不能陪同人群从椭圆形草坪出发进军后，特朗普在总统 SUV 内部向一名特勤局特工扑了过去。

“托尼形容他当时愤怒至极，”哈钦森作证道，“总统说了类似这样的话：‘我他妈的是总统，现在就带我去国会大厦。’”

她继续说道，当尝试失败后，特朗普“伸手向车辆前方抓方向盘”。然后她说，总统“用空闲的一只手向鲍比·恩格尔（Bobby Engel）扑去”，恩格尔是他的安保主管，当时与他一同乘坐装甲豪华轿车。

但当天驾驶特朗普和恩格尔车辆的特勤局特工在听证会数月后的一次采访中对哈钦森的证词提出了异议，美国国土安全部于2024年公布了该采访的记录。

该司机作证称，他“没有看到他伸手”，且特朗普“从未抓过方向盘”。

根据提供给《华盛顿邮报》的完整记录副本，该司机表示：“我完全没有看到他，你知道的，猛冲试图进入前排座位。”

没有其他证人证实哈钦森关于特朗普在豪华轿车内行为的描述，尽管几位受访者证实总统当时明显处于愤怒状态。

“你知道，最突出的是他声音中的烦躁，而不是——而不是他的肢体动作，因为如果他试图挤进两个前排座位之间，那将是非常明显的，”该司机补充道。

哈钦森还告诉1月6日委员会，在相关诉讼过程中，代表她的第一位律师建议她故意向调查人员隐瞒信息。

她声称，该律师斯特凡·帕桑蒂诺（Stefan Passantino）曾是特朗普白宫的伦理律师，他试图通过提供工作机会和财务稳定承诺来诱导她，以换取她对特朗普的忠诚。在当时给《邮报》的一份声明中，帕桑蒂诺否认有任何不当行为。

他在声明中表示：“在我30年的执业生涯中，对待所有客户都一样，我以光彩、合乎伦理且完全符合哈钦森女士向我传达的唯一利益的方式代表她。我相信哈钦森女士在我代表她参加的几次采访环节中，一直对委员会保持诚实与配合。”

特朗普团队准备与伊朗进行长期经济战

对该国经济的严峻预测尚未成真

作者：苏珊娜·乔治（SUSANNAH GEORGE）

随着特朗普政府将重心从军事力量转向经济压力，以迫使德黑兰重返谈判桌，财政部长斯科特·贝森特承诺将迅速对伊朗经济造成破坏。

他上个月表示，到9月底，所有伊朗航空公司将在全球范围内停飞。该国将在本周末之前耗尽可销售的石油。

伊朗经济确实在遭受苦难。但由于面对的是一个宁愿忍受痛苦也不愿退让的伊朗政府，特朗普政府的这些承诺和时间表已被证明难以实现。

美国对伊朗港口的封锁已迫使石油出口降至最低水平，使德黑兰每月损失数十亿美元的收入。但伊朗继续销售在6月休战期间出口的石油。此外，根据全球情报公司 Kpler 的数据，德黑兰每天通过陆路将约 250,000 桶石油运出境。

唐纳德·特朗普总统表示，这场目前已进入第二个月的经济压力行动，旨在迫使伊朗在11月美国中期选举后重返谈判桌，但谈判依然陷入僵局，伊朗官员拒绝放宽其要求。

与此同时，德黑兰在霍尔木兹海峡升级了针对航运交通的军事行动，在单周内袭击了九艘以上的船只。此次袭击是在美国在该地区扩大行动之后发生的，这些行动虽然促进了更高的石油流量，但未能影响全球能源价格。

尽管如此，一名高级政府官员表示，特朗普政府认为时间在自己这一边。该官员拒绝讨论贝森特的言论，包括其关于经济痛苦的具体时间表。

“你确实看到了时间动态的转变，”这位在政府设定的匿名规则下发言的官员表示。该官员称，虽然伊朗此前能够通过动用石油收入来抵御几轮经济压力，但美国的封锁消除了这种缓冲空间，并提高了制裁的有效性。

航空公司

特朗普政府于 8, 月宣布针对伊朗航空业实施全面制裁，威胁要对为伊朗航空公司提供服务的外国公司实施次级制裁。

当时，贝森特告诉 CNBC，“所有伊朗航空公司将在 23. 日前在全世界范围内被关闭”。他表示，特朗普政府已经“发现了遍布全球的协助者”。

他说：“我们知道他们是谁，他们也知道自己是谁，我们将对此予以制止。”

但截至10月，往返伊朗的国际航班仍在继续，包括飞往中国、伊拉克和土耳其的航班。

航班追踪公司报告称，在美国宣布制裁后的几天里，往返伊朗的国际航班数量下降了约一半。来自德黑兰伊玛目霍梅尼国际机场的最新航班追踪数据显示，有来自巴基斯坦伊斯兰堡、伊斯坦布尔、莫斯科和上海的航班抵达。

美国官员在此次行动宣布前与数十个国家的代表会面以争取支持。财政部官员访问了阿联酋、英国和阿曼，讨论即将开展的航空和银行领域行动。

据该政府官员称，在接触盟友时，特朗普政府回应了关于经济压力行动将持续多久的担忧。

“听着，我们希望尽快看到问题的解决，”他表示自己如此告诉美国盟友。“他们越快切断所有这些生命线，让伊朗意识到自己已无路可走，我们就越快能达成解决方案。”

但分析人士和前官员表示，像特朗普针对伊朗的“经济弃民行动”（Operation Economic Outcast）这样的制裁行动，可能需要数月甚至数年时间才能迫使对方做出改变。

“就这些经济行动而言，其效果取决于你维持和执行它们的意愿，而这需要长期的承诺，”前财政部官员、智库华盛顿研究所高级研究员马修·莱维特（Matthew Levitt）表示。

银行

在宣布“经济弃民行动”时，贝森特要求关闭伊朗国有银行——梅利银行（Bank Melli）的所有分支机构。

他说：“任何代表伊朗便利洗钱的实体都将被剔除出美元系统。时间在滴答作响。”上个月，财政部对该银行的一家阿联酋分行经理实施了制裁，几天后，阿联酋禁止该国所有分行处理往返伊朗的交易。

为了表明针对金融机构的行动可能很快升级，财政部周一发布警报，称外国金融机构现在可能会在没有事先通知的情况下受到次级制裁。

其他被针对的银行包括一家埃及银行的阿联酋分行，以及俄罗斯第二大金融机构 VTB 银行。

总部位于华盛顿的 Steptoe 律师事务所前财政部官员、现为公司提供此类事务咨询的卡里·斯廷鲍尔（Cari Stinebower）表示，全球范围内对制裁合规性的关注度有所增加。

她说：“其中一部分源于白宫传递的信息，即对伊朗的压力正在增加且将继续增加。我认为本届政府不会退缩，也不会失去兴趣。”

封锁

在结束战争的临时协议破裂后，美国于7月重新实施了对伊朗的封锁。自那时起，该行动迫使伊朗的石油出口降至低水平，并使德黑兰失去了数十亿美元的关键国家收入。

伊朗继续销售此前出口的石油。根据石油分析师汇总的数据，在6月中旬至7月中旬的临时和平协议期间，伊朗从其港口紧急运出了超过6000 万桶石油，并一直在稳步销售其中的部分库存。

虽然目前尚不清楚未售出的剩余量是多少，但一些石油分析师估计，上个月仍有3000 万桶库存，且伊朗每天销售约500,000桶。路透社周四报道称，伊朗在封锁线以外船只上的石油库存仍维持在约2000 万桶。

在遭受严厉的军事打击之后，这种经济压力使伊朗陷入了数十年来最严重的孤立状态。曾在拜登政府期间担任美国与伊朗谈判代表的理查德·内普休（Richard Nephew）表示，与以色列和美国的多次冲突已经将伊朗切断。

“他们之所以能在这一点上表现得更具攻击性，部分原因是伊朗不再拥有那么多此类联系。这些联系已经萎缩了，”内普休说道。

内普休表示，目前旨在进一步孤立德黑兰的目标实体具有“重要意义”，但“这些是对伊朗经济的致命一击吗？可能不是。”

窃贼盗走价值数百万美元的葡萄酒

窃贼从托斯卡纳的一家酒庄盗走了约30,000瓶意大利最珍贵的葡萄酒，估计价值$5.800 万。该生产商周五称，这是该国记录以来规模最大的葡萄酒盗窃案。

此次盗窃的目标是位于阿雷佐省科尔托纳附近的马基西·安蒂诺里（Marchesi Antinori）设施。周六晚上，一个至少由七人组成的窃贼团伙盗走了包括 Solaia、Tignanello 和 Guado al Tasso 在内的几种意大利最抢手的葡萄酒。盗窃行为于周一被发现，但公司直到周五才公开，以避免干扰调查。

首席执行官伦佐·科塔雷拉（Renzo Cotarella）表示，窃贼在进入前禁用了酒庄的报警系统和监控摄像头，随后驾驶两辆大卡车进入。他们利用公司的叉车将车辆装满葡萄酒，并在夜间逃离。

被盗的酒瓶全部来自2023年份，每瓶的零售价通常在150欧元至500欧元之间。其中包括约10,000瓶 Solaia，这是安蒂诺里的旗舰葡萄酒之一，科塔雷拉将其描述为一个卓越的年份。

当局正在调查被盗葡萄酒可能的销售途径。警方和宪兵（Carabinieri）官员正在检查监控录像和其他证据。科塔雷拉表示，他依然相信调查人员能够追踪到这批货物，并指出两卡车的葡萄酒在不引起注意的情况下很难转移。

英国 在空军基地被捕人员获保释

英国反恐警察周五表示，两名在英国一座驻有美国和北约情报人员的空军基地周界内被捕的拉脱维亚男子已获保释。

该基地为莫尔斯沃思皇家空军基地（RAF Molesworth），位于伦敦以北 70 英里，由美国空军运营，是北约情报融合中心的所在地。该中心向欧洲盟军最高司令提供信息，且驻有来自美国非洲司令部的情报人员。

国防部警察和剑桥郡警局的警员在周三晚上 10 点左右于基地边缘发现一辆被遗弃的车辆后，开始对该事件展开调查。警方随后在周界围栏上发现了一个小洞，两名嫌疑人均为英国居民，于周四凌晨 2 点左右被捕。

警方周四表示，没有迹象表明此次逮捕与近期费尔福德皇家空军基地（RAF Fairford）的安全警报有关，美国空军曾从该基地对伊朗发动袭击。所有部署在费尔福德的美国轰炸机已于上周末返回美国本土基地。

印度 当局为大规模抗议做准备

印度当局周五加强了首都的安全部署，并宣布在“蟑螂”运动（“Cockroach” movement）计划举行示威活动前实施交通限制，旨在限制人们参与一场针对争议性选民名单修订的日益扩大的运动，该修订已引发全国范围的抗议。

随着针对总理纳伦德拉·莫迪政府及国家选举当局的运动升级，预计周六将有数千名抗议者聚集在新德里的詹塔·曼塔（Jantar Mantar）抗议场所。抗议者在反对党的加入下，要求首席选举专员吉亚内什·库马尔（Gyanesh Kumar）辞职，指责由他领导的选举机构通过修订操纵选民名单。

印度铁路公司表示，周六将取消往返于新德里两个车站的数趟列车，而德里地铁则宣布关闭 57 个车站。这些限制可能会阻碍“蟑螂”运动支持者前往抗议现场，其中许多是依赖火车和地铁参加示威活动的学生。

当地媒体报道，在抗议活动之前，首都已部署了至少 23,000 名警员。

抗议活动的焦点是一项名为“特别强化修订”（Special Intensive Revision）的全国性选民名单审查，该审查已在印度大多数邦和联邦直辖领地开展。目前已有超过 1.3 亿（1.3 亿）个名字被删除。数百万人已就删除行为提出申诉。

佛罗里达州报纸发表的评论文章系伊朗AI伪造

OpenAI表示，约100篇AI生成的文章在至少20家新闻机构中发表。佛罗里达州的一家小型周报《圣乔港之星》（Port St. Joe Star）最近刊登了其中一篇。 华盛顿邮报插图；ISTOCK

OpenAI称此项工作是“影响力行动”的一部分

作者：MIRIAM WALDVOGEL

“这场战争的代价将在战斗结束之后继续影响美国人，”上个月，佛罗里达州的一家小型周报《圣乔港之星》的一篇评论文章在警告伊朗战争。

该文章的署名为埃尔文·霍金斯（Ervin Hoskins），这个名字也出现在过《Daily Kos》和《中东监测》（Middle East Monitor）等规模更大刊物的批评战争的文章中，这两家媒体在Facebook上的粉丝总数超过300万。

但ChatGPT的开发商OpenAI周四表示，霍金斯所谓的作品是由位于伊朗的用户利用其聊天机器人生成的，是某项“影响力行动”的一部分。该公司表示，该行动在至少20家新闻机构中投放了约100篇伪造文章。

根据OpenAI的在线验证工具，《圣乔港之星》刊登的霍金斯专栏中的作者照片是使用OpenAI的人工智能工具生成的。

随着人工智能工具变得日益强大，一些新闻机构被迫删除在伪造署名下发表的AI生成内容，这些内容最初并未被编辑察觉。《商业内幕》（Business Insider）和《连线》（Wired）去年删除了一系列以玛格索·布兰查德（Margaux Blanchard）为署名且看似由AI生成的文章。

虽然尚不清楚布兰查德及其他一些显然是伪造的人格背后的操纵者是谁或是什么，但OpenAI在周四一份关于ChatGPT被用于政治影响力行动的报告中表示，霍金斯是一项旨在传播关于美国在伊朗军事行动内容的行动的一部分。许多文章强调了战争给美国人带来的负面影响。

OpenAI表示，霍金斯是出现在这一系列AI生成文章中的七个署名之一，这些文章是由使用波斯语向聊天机器人发送指令的用户制作的。该公司称，这些行动似乎是由一家商业机构作为“雇佣影响力行动”运行的。（《华盛顿邮报》与OpenAI拥有内容合作伙伴关系）。

《圣乔港之星》的出版人大卫·阿德勒斯坦（David Adlerstein）在电子邮件中表示，霍金斯的专栏在由PeaceVoice（一个位于俄勒冈州的小型自由派智库）向他推荐后引起了他的注意，该智库“多年”来一直向《圣乔港之星》提供内容。圣乔港所在的湾县（Gulf County）人口约为15,000人。

“因为我们处于佛罗里达州一个非常‘红’（共和党支持者众多）的地区，我通常不刊登PeaceVoice的专栏，但这篇让我觉得发人深省，且并非对特朗普先生的激烈攻击，否则会对我们的许多读者产生问题，”阿德勒斯坦说。他说，由于与PeaceVoice已有的关系，他觉得没有必要核实该专栏的来源或作者的身份。

PeaceVoice的创始主任汤姆·黑斯廷斯（Tom Hastings）表示，在OpenAI与其联系后，该组织加强了现有的禁AI政策。

OpenAI表示，它已封禁了该行动背后的账户，并且屏蔽了来自伊朗的ChatGPT访问。

“整体活动与一个运行雇佣影响力行动的商业参与者相一致，但我们无法确定具体涉及的参与者，”该公司在报告中称。“我们已将此案例的信息分享给了相关部门。”

《中东监测》和《Daily Kos》表示，他们已删除了由伪造署名撰写的文章，并正在审查其流程以防止进一步的事件发生。

随着人工智能工具变得日益强大，一些新闻机构被迫删除在伪造署名下发表的AI生成内容，这些内容最初并未被编辑察觉。

霍金斯在 Daily Kos 上发表的文章出现在一个社区平台上，在发布前无需经过该机构工作人员的审核。该网站创始人马科斯·穆利察斯（Markos Mou-litsas）在电子邮件中表示，此类活动对该平台具有“极强的腐蚀性”。

“我们已经在应对社区成员仅仅因为意见不合就指责他人是机器人或虚假账号的问题。这样的行动无异于火上浇油，”他说道，“我们社区的信任基础正面临威胁。”

OpenAI 表示，由参与伊朗宣传活动的人员撰写的文章涵盖了中东地区的各种话题，但通常会对伊朗战争给美国人带来的影响持批评态度。许多相关媒体专注于政策和外交事务。

在生成英文文章后，伊朗的 ChatGPT 用户会提示聊天机器人调整草稿，以符合特定媒体的投稿标准，并生成一封发送给该编辑的推荐邮件。

这些文章的所谓作者被描述为自由撰稿人、政策分析师和和平倡导者。中东观察（Middle East Monitor）自称支持巴勒斯坦事业，该媒体至少发表了 21 篇由 OpenAI 认定为虚假署名的报道，署名包括霍金斯、迈克尔·哈里森（Michael Harrison）、珍妮·威廉姆斯（Jenny Williams）和爱丽丝·约翰逊（Alice Johnson）。

包括霍金斯在内的一些署名也出现在社交媒体账号中，在一种情况下，博客平台 Medium 上的一个个人资料页与发表文章的姓名和头像一致。一个显然被用于向 PeaceVoice 发送霍金斯文章的电子邮件账户，以及一个以其名义注册且带有部分署名照片的 LinkedIn 账户，均未回应置评请求。

根据 OpenAI 用于验证图像是否由该公司技术生成的工具，至少还有一名所谓作者埃里卡·费西尔（Ericka Feusier）使用了 AI 生成的个人资料照片。

OpenAI 关于利用其技术开展影响力活动的报告还描述了一组位于俄罗斯的 ChatGPT 账户，这些账户在被用于运营一个看似位于拉丁美洲的虚假智库后被封禁。OpenAI 表示，有证据表明该项目可能招募了真实的人员为该组织工作。

这家 AI 公司表示，发布这项研究是为了告知监管机构、其他公司以及公众“我们如何看待威胁行为者试图利用 ，并揭示他们试图利用的漏洞”。

受此次活动影响的媒体影响力各异。但尽管它们发表的是带有虚假署名的 生成文章，却有真实的人阅读了这些内容。

阿德勒斯坦（Adlerstein）表示，霍金斯在《星报》（Star）上发表的专栏引发了一封读者来信——对于一篇关于国家话题的评论文章来说，这种情况非常罕见。他补充说，他现在正考虑引入一项明确的 政策。

PeaceVoice 的黑斯廷斯（Hastings）表示，他在看到文章时，它看起来像是真实的。

“我在他的作品中没有发现任何显著的亲伊朗倾向（这种内容我绝不会发表），而只是对特朗普选择发动战争的合理批评。如果霍金斯先生再次投稿，我将简单地要求通过 Zoom 会面讨论，”他在电子邮件中写道，“至少目前来看，这是我能做的最好的处理方式。”

阿联酋称：迪拜飞航副驾驶曾计划对以色列主机场发动类似9 / 11的袭击

行程随后将飞机安全降落在沙特阿拉伯。

以色列当局周五未立即回应置评请求。以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡上周表示，哈马米接受了“伊斯兰激进思想的灌输”，并且具有“自杀倾向”。内塔尼亚胡的一名发言人将哈马米描述为“激进化”的人。

发言人多龙·斯皮尔曼（Doron Spielman）告诉《华盛顿邮报》：“他在社交媒体上谈论杀害犹太人，因此很明显，他此前就有杀害犹太人的意图和动机。”

当局表示，这架从迪拜国际机场起飞的航班上，大约180人中大多数是以色列人。

据阿联酋通讯社报道，阿联酋总检察长尚西表示，哈马米“在律师在场且获得所有法律保障的情况下，详细交代了他的动机以及计划和执行的阶段”。

尚西表示，哈马米告诉调查人员他是单独行动。目前调查人员正在核实这一说法。尚西还表示，他们已经采集了马奇哈尔的陈述（马奇哈尔是一名印度国民，目前在阿布扎比的一家医院接受治疗），以及返程航班的飞行员和机组人员的陈述。

该通讯社报道称，尚西表示，哈马米“已开始实施一项预先准备的恐怖计划，旨在控制飞机并将其用于在本古里安客运航站楼发动自杀式袭击，意图造成尽可能多的人员伤亡”。

该通讯社报道，尚西表示，哈马米“倾向于极端主义和恐怖主义”的迹象在2017, 开始出现，当时他正在澳大利亚的皇家墨尔本理工学院学习。

他阅读“极端主义著作”，

关注“美化恐怖组织和自杀行动”的内容，并受到塔克菲尔主义（Takfirism，主张杀害穆斯林叛教者的思想）的影响，尚西说道。

尚西表示，哈马米效仿9 / 11袭击，追求航空业职业生涯，先后在阿曼航空、摩洛哥皇家航空工作，并于1月进入迪拜飞航。

以色列驻阿联酋大使约西·亚伯拉罕·谢利（Yossi Avraham Shelley）上周告诉《华盛顿邮报》，哈马米被阿曼航空“解雇”，随后离开了摩洛哥皇家航空。

一名熟悉此事的人士告诉本报，在阿曼航空期间，由于哈马米持有激进观点，他被禁止执行飞行计划。据该人士透露，他被分配到办公室工作随后辞职；由于涉及正在进行的调查，该人士要求匿名。该人士未详细说明具体观点。

尚西表示，哈马米在迪拜飞航满足的入职要求包括持有飞行员执照和良好行为证明，以及通过考核。

尚西表示，哈马米通过“加强监测煽动恐怖主义的材料，并在私人教练的指导下进行拳击训练”，在心理和身体上为袭击做准备。

印度外交部周三表示，马奇哈尔的治疗反应良好。哈马米仍被阿联酋拘留。

顶尖人权法学家皮莱获诺贝尔和平奖

作者：艾伦·弗朗西斯（ELLEN FRANCIS）

纳维·皮莱周五在德国纽伦堡的一个国际法论坛上，因获得诺贝尔和平奖而赢得掌声。 照片：FRANK BOXLER / 诺贝尔和平奖于周五授予纳瓦内瑟姆·“纳维”·皮莱（Navanethem “Navi” Pillay）。她是一位顶尖法学家、前联合国人权事务高级专员，因其在起诉战争罪行和助力加强国际法方面的长期职业生涯而获奖。

挪威诺贝尔委员会认可了 85 岁的皮莱在全球法院担任法官以及在她的家乡南非担任律师的工作。委员会表示，这一决定提醒人们，问责制是“我们为确保和平而建立的系统的基石”。

皮莱出生于一个印度泰米尔裔家庭，是首位获得哈佛法学院法学博士学位的南非人。在职业生涯早期，她致力于为反种族隔离制度的活动人士辩护，其中包括同样获得诺贝尔和平奖的纳尔逊·曼德拉。在种族隔离政权结束后的 1995 年，她成为首位在南非最高法院任职的有色人种女性，随后担任国际刑事法院（ICC）法官。

在周五的宣布中，诺贝尔委员会主席约根·瓦特内·弗里德内斯（Jorgen Watne Frydnes）在关于全球法律秩序机构局限性讨论日益激烈的时刻，对这些机构发表了尖锐的辩护。

“维护国际法的机构正承受着巨大的压力、制裁和攻击，”弗里德内斯告诉记者。然而他补充道，尽管“国际法从未完美，也从未能防止所有冲突”，但“它设定了标准”。

他将皮莱描述为“我们时代最勇敢的法律专家之一”，并表示她在“确保战争罪、危害人类罪和种族灭绝罪得到起诉方面发挥了关键作用”。

去年，皮莱领导的一个联合国委员会认定以色列在加沙地带对巴勒斯坦人实施了种族灭绝，这与越来越多以色列及国际人权组织的评估相呼应。她的专家组遭到了以色列政府的批评，后者否认了这一结论。

皮莱还曾领导一个调查 1994 年卢旺达种族灭绝事件的国际法庭，该法庭做出了一项里程碑式的裁决，认定大规模强奸和性暴力可构成种族灭绝行为。目前，她在联合国主要司法机构——国际法院（ICJ）担任法官，处理一起缅甸被指控对罗兴亚少数民族实施种族灭绝的案件。缅甸否认了这一指控。

美国不承认国际刑事法院（ICC）的管辖权，皮莱曾在 2003 年至 2012 年期间在该法院任职。美国指责该法院越权，并将其视为对美国和以色列的威胁。对于白宫试图拆除这家总部位于海牙的法院的举措，批评者将皮莱的获奖视为对美国施压活动的反击，而这种施压活动在周五通过新的制裁措施仍在继续。

2014 年，皮莱在日内瓦的办公室。

美国的这一行动遭到了欧洲官员和人权组织的强烈批评，他们将其描述为一种寻求免责的企图，破坏了对暴行的调查。

在接受记者采访时，皮莱将她的奖项献给战争罪幸存者，并批评对国际刑事法院的威胁是“削弱国际刑事司法制度的企图”。

在俄罗斯 2022 年入侵乌克兰后，该法院对总统弗拉基米尔·普京（Vladimir Putin）以及针对以色列在加沙战争的总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡（Benjamin Netanyahu）发出了逮捕令。这些裁决被其盟友忽视，凸显了执行方面的挑战。

俄罗斯和以色列也无视了二战后成立的国际法院（ICJ）停止军事攻击的命令。

以色列外交部谴责了周五的诺贝尔奖消息，称其为一次“使反以仇恨和偏见合法化”的企图。

包括南非和欧盟在内的其他领导人，以及人权组织和联合国官员，对这一选择表示欢迎，认为这是对法治的认可。

周五，皮莱在德国纽伦堡的一次国际法论坛上得知了获奖消息，当年针对纳粹战争罪行的审判在纽伦堡举行，为国际法奠定了基础。

“在这个场合，你们的掌声意义重大，”她说道。

“但作为一名律师和法官，我仍然希望核实这条信息，”皮莱打趣道，引发一阵笑声。

根据瑞典发明家阿尔弗雷德·诺贝尔在其遗嘱中的规定，诺贝尔和平奖旨在表彰那些“在和平领域为人类带来最大福祉”的人。

获奖者包括直接参与结束冲突谈判的人员，以及在促进人权、民主、军控或气候行动方面做出努力的人。红十字会曾三次获奖，联合国难民署两次获奖。

在其历史上，该奖项有时会引发抵制，例如 1973 年，尽管美国对柬埔寨和老挝进行了轰炸，前国务卿亨利·基辛格仍获得认可，导致两名委员会成员愤而辞职。2019 年，埃塞俄比亚总理阿比·艾哈迈德因努力解决与厄立特里亚的长期冲突而获表彰，但次年其国家陷入内战，委员会面临撤销奖项的呼吁。

作为诺贝尔奖中最著名的奖项，和平奖由一枚金质奖章和 1200 万 瑞典克朗（约 $1.200 万）组成。奖项将于 12 月 10,（诺贝尔逝世周年纪念日）在奥斯陆的颁奖典礼上颁发。

决定由挪威诺贝尔委员会的五名成员做出，该委员会由挪威议会任命。在今年该奖项成立 125 周年之际，委员会收到了 280 份以上的提名。

近年来，委员会在唐纳德·特朗普总统竞逐该奖项的背景下宣布其选择，这一野心有时会影响总统的外交活动。在周五的宣布之前，正与伊朗交战的总统再次声称他已经“解决了八场战争，而且都是规模巨大的战争”。

去年的荣誉授予了委内瑞拉反对派领导人玛丽亚·科里纳·马查多，而 2024 年的奖项则授予了日本原爆者生存者团体“日本被团协”（Nihon Hidankyo），该组织主张反对核武器。

在诺贝尔奖宣布几个月后，美国推翻了委内瑞拉长期领导人尼古拉斯·马杜罗，马查多随后在白宫将她 2025 年的奖项交给了特朗普，试图重新获得他的青睐。然而，挪威诺贝尔委员会表示，奖项不能转交给他人。

特朗普本周对诺贝尔委员会是否会认可他表示怀疑，但告诉记者，当马查多将奖项交给他时，她说“在诺贝尔奖历史上，从来没有比他更配得上这个奖项的人”。

特朗普政府制裁升级，加剧与全球司法机构的紧张关系

“……资源，并削弱他们针对我们采取行动的能力，”鲁比奥表示。“要么国际刑事法院停止其威胁，要么我们将终结国际刑事法院，”他补充道。

特朗普政府长期以来一直指责国际刑事法院开展的调查违反了以色列和美国等非成员国的国家主权。

根据美国的新制裁，该法院将无法再使用总部位于美国的金融服务、技术公司，或以美元进行交易。制裁令附带六个月的宽限期，在此期间，与该法院有业务往来的公司必须停止运营。

国际刑事法院在周五的一份声明中表示：“此次认定旨在干扰法院的运作，并恐吓那些为法院工作或与法院合作的人员。”法院称：“这不仅仅是为了捍卫单一机构，而是为了维护基于法治的国际秩序。”

特朗普政府的这一宣布，恰在一名国际刑事法院前法官被宣布为今年诺贝尔和平奖获得者后数小时发出。

南非法学家纳维·皮莱（Navi Pillay）周五被授予该奖项，以表彰她在国际法领域的工作。

皮莱多年来在国际法院工作，致力于为卢旺达种族灭绝等暴行寻求正义；目前，她担任国际法院的法官，审理一起缅甸军政府被指控对罗兴亚穆斯林少数群体实施种族灭绝的案件。在 20 世纪 70 年代，她在故乡南非为反种族隔离活动人士辩护，而今年她领导的一个联合国小组认定以色列在加沙实施了种族灭绝。

总统唐纳德·特朗普长期以来一直表示，他认为自己理应获得诺贝尔和平奖。在委内瑞拉民主活动人士玛丽亚·科里纳·马查多（María Corina Machado）去年获得该荣誉后，她将奖牌交给了特朗普，以博取这位美国总统的好感。

国际刑事法院成立于 2002 年，总部设在海牙，旨在处理世界上一些最严重的罪行，如战争罪、反人类罪和种族灭绝罪。

特朗普此前曾对与国际刑事法院有关联的个人实施制裁，包括 8 月份针对该机构主席和一名高级审判律师的制裁。

美国的盟友和人权组织谴责了周五的制裁行动。

“我们对美国宣布将对法院实施制裁表示遗憾并强烈反对，”加拿大、丹麦、德国、法国、意大利、日本、荷兰和英国发表的一份联合声明中写道。

声明继续称：“如果这些制裁生效，将对法院的工作、其敬业的员工及其家属产生重大影响。”

国际特赦组织呼吁各国予以反击。国际特赦组织高级主任埃里卡·格瓦拉·罗萨斯（Erika Guevara Rosas）在声明中表示：“各国必须采取具体行动，抵制这些措施的实施，并积极保护法院。”

她说：“最后一道底线已被跨越。这是对根据国际法追究最严重罪行责任之可能性的攻击，无论这些人多么强大。”

康奈尔指控事件后，一名校长发声，向男学生发起挑战

多伦多皇家圣乔治学院（Royal St. George's College）这所男校的校长斯蒂芬·比蒂（Stephen Beatty）敦促学生在看到错误行为时勇敢发声。 GLEN HERBERT / ROYAL ST. GEORGE'S COLLEGE

演讲摘录（见 A1 版）

当他们 8 岁时，每个周五他都会在办公室里对他们说话。但他们现在已经是青少年了，而他的职责是帮助他们步入成年。

“先生们，”他说，“今天我想和你们谈谈一件困难的事情。”

比蒂知道他的学生们多么渴望融入集体。他们都穿着同样的蓝色西装外套，胸前绣着学校的校徽。他们的领带在颈部系得松松垮垮。大多数人都留着同样毛茸茸的发型，让比蒂想起了羊驼。他认为他们都是好孩子。他无法想象他们中有人会做出可能导致被捕的性行为。但他希望——而且需要——要求他们做得更多。

当他站在讲坛上时，比蒂想起了一条他在网上看到的评论。人们将那些被指控的兄弟会成员称为“康奈尔 7 人组”。一名女性在 Instagram 上指出，据称还有 50 名年轻人在一个 Snapchat 群组中，其中一名男子邀请他们参与袭击。她称他们为“康奈尔 57 人组”。

“没有一个人有勇气阻止这件事，”比蒂说，“他们保持了沉默。”

比蒂扫视人群，看到男孩们的目光都锁定在他身上。他们没有在座位上不安地扭动。他们在倾听。比蒂告诉他的学生，他想谈谈那种沉默。“学校是为了学习。而也许你们正在学习的最重要的事情就是关于你们自己，”他说，然后问道：“你想成为什么样的男人？”（在此阅读演讲全文。）

比蒂之前曾两次发表过类似主题的谈话。

十多年前，在俄亥俄州斯图本维尔的两名足球运动员因性侵一名高中女生被定罪，而其他人则录像并将片段发布到社交媒体后，他第一次向学生谈论强奸问题。2024 年，在一名女性称自己遭到加拿大冰球协会（Hockey Canada）青年锦标赛队多名成员的性侵后，比蒂发表了该演讲的第二个版本。这些球员在去年被判定无罪，但比蒂仍对当时的情况感到不安——涉及多名男性，且该女性处于醉酒状态。

当比蒂读到康奈尔大学的案件时，他感到了同样的愤怒。不过，他不确定自己是否还有什么新话可以讲。随后，几位女性同事告诉他，她们希望他能再次发声。

他决定，如果他不利用每一个机会教导他负责的 350 名男孩如何为人，他将无法面对自己。

比蒂今年 59 岁——他自称是个“老人”——但他记得当一名青少年男孩有多么艰难。他在 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代就读于皇家圣乔治学院，那时他极度渴望指引。有一次，在最好的朋友死于游乐园事故后，悲痛欲绝的比蒂走到一位老师家中，询问如何面对失去。

那位老师帮助比蒂度过了人生中最艰难的时光。比蒂想成为那样的一位导师，但在考虑如何谈论康奈尔事件时，他担心学生们会因为自己是男孩而被贴上“坏”的标签。比蒂不希望他们觉得自己被钉在“有毒的男子气概”的死角里。羞耻感无法激励他们。

整个周末，比蒂都在苦恼该说什么。他与 92 岁的父亲以及大学时期的儿子们交谈，然后，在周日晚上，他带着笔记本电脑来到地下室，打开了布法罗比尔队（Buffalo Bills）的足球赛，将其静音，然后开始写作。

我感到震惊。

他将双手从键盘上移开。在本学期早些时候，他曾看到自己的一个学生——一个身材魁梧的棒球运动员——在美术课上刺绣花朵。他曾看到其他男孩朗诵诗歌。他曾陪他们一起走进森林，倾听他们谈论父母、谈论恐惧，以及那些他们极少透露的秘密挣扎。

我知道你们的善良，你们的正义感，以及你们彼此之间的关怀。我相信你们。

比蒂知道，好人在糟糕的情况下也可能失足。在青少年时期，他曾目睹同龄人欺负一个超重的男孩，而他当时没有抗议。他知道，即使意识到某些事情不对，体面的人也可能保持沉默。他知道沉默能给人带来多么强烈的安全感。

我知道。孩子们，请相信我。我知道。

比蒂写到了深夜。他一遍又一遍地阅读这篇演讲稿，并取消了周一早晨的预约。他很紧张，但当他周一早晨站在讲坛上，望着他的学生们时，那种焦虑消失了。他们在倾听。

比蒂经常想起那个和他一起长大的超重男孩。年轻时他就知道自己的沉默伤害了那个男孩，但比蒂当时认为他是在保护自己。在随后的几十年里，他意识到沉默同样侵蚀了他自己。他现在明白了，沉默会让年轻人变得麻木。它让他们不敢寻求帮助，让他们感到孤独。

“沉默可以被包装成某种男子气概。所谓的‘沉默而坚强的类型’。不要相信那个，”他告诉男孩们，“那并不坚强。”

“真正具有男子气概且坚强的是打破沉默，”他继续说道，“我们需要勇敢，而不是沉默。请决定，现在的你以及未来的你，都将不再沉默。”

在担任校长期间，比蒂了解到，你不能仅仅告诉一个男孩不要做什么。你必须给他明确的指令。因此，他告诉学生们将他的演讲视为一次消防演习——是对真实紧急情况的练习。如果有人拿女孩开贬低性的玩笑，男孩们应该说：“够了。”如果一个男孩分享了一个女孩的私密照片，接收者应该回复：“不要发给我。把它删了。”

“当群聊变得残酷，或者一个朋友开始谈论某个女孩，仿佛她是一个待赢的奖品或一件可以拥有的财产时，你们会怎么做？”他询问听众，“你们会加入其中吗？还是因为不想让气氛变得尴尬而保持安静？”

比蒂鼓励男孩们去制造尴尬。如果他们目睹了袭击，他们需要尽一切努力阻止它。他们需要大声呼救。他们可以打破窗户，拉响火警报警器。他们可以打电话给父母，或者打电话给他。

他让他们拿出手机，然后给了他们自己的号码。他告诉他们，使用这个号码。当你不知道该怎么做时，使用它。当你需要有人在不评判、不产生后果的情况下提供帮助时，使用它。他告诉他们，他爱他们。

“我了解你们，”他告诉他们，“我知道那是你们想要成为的男人，也是你们将要成为的男人。”

比蒂有时开玩笑说，男孩们没什么深沉的东西。他们可以很有深度和内涵，但在表达上通常并不复杂。在走出礼拜堂时，有几个学生嘟囔着：“演讲很棒，先生。”那天下午，其他人在食堂里向他致谢。

当他回到办公室时，他发现大多数人已经给他发了短信。都是简短的信息。不止一个人只写了：“嘿，比蒂先生，是我。”尽管如此，比蒂依然感到情绪激动。他的孩子们在表达。目前，这就足够了。

特朗普与普京达成柴油协议，但对汽油价格的影响可能有限

上个月，一名司机在加利福尼亚州邓尼根的一个卡车停靠站操作柴油泵。全国平均每加仑 $6.28 的柴油价格引发了不满。 FRED GREAVES / REUTERS

（接 A1 页俄罗斯报道）

财政部对俄罗斯柴油实施的制裁，财政部表示，向美国销售该燃料将被允许直到四月份。

“特朗普现在愿意为了在全球能源市场中几乎可以忽略不计的微小份额而破坏自己的制裁措施。这充分说明了他的绝望，”独立风险咨询顾问布雷特·埃里克森（Brett Erickson）表示，他密切跟踪石油市场和油轮动向。

对俄乌战争的影响可能会更显著。近几个月来，乌克兰对俄罗斯炼油厂的无人机袭击在干扰该国燃料供应方面取得了日益显著的成功，并已成为其针对克里姆林宫最有效的压力战术之一。

该协议立即遭到了乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基以及民主党人的谴责，后者一直批评特朗普在处理汽油价格和外交政策方面的做法。

“给普京的礼物不会带来和平，也不会给文明世界带来任何好处。俄罗斯将以进一步的恐怖和背信弃义来‘偿还’这些柴油，”泽连斯基在 X 上写道。“允许俄罗斯销售石油产品是对一场必须结束而非延长战争的投资。”

“特朗普正在与魔鬼做交易，试图通过这种方式，缓解因他在中东发起的鲁莽且非法的战争而导致的柴油价格惊人高涨，从而挽救他摇摇欲坠的政治前景，”参议院少数党领袖查克·舒默（纽约州）在 X 上写道。

上个月，特朗普宣布他促成了俄罗斯和乌克兰之间的一项协议，旨在停止攻击对方的能源基础设施——但双方都没有签署该协议。

特朗普还曾考虑禁止美国出口柴油，但他的顾问们否决了这个想法，认为这可能会弊大于利。官员们表示，由于炼油厂生产这两种燃料的方式，禁止柴油出口几乎肯定会提高汽油成本。上周，特朗普宣布一项举措，在年底前停止对部分驾驶员（主要在农业州）执行某些联邦柴油税法。

特朗普渴望为驾驶员提供缓解，因为油价的沉重压力已成为巨大的政治负资产。全国平均每加仑 $6.28 的柴油价格引发的不满，是民主党在不久前被认为该党无法触及的选区（尤其是中西部地区）民调上升的一个重要因素。一年前，柴油平均价格为每加仑 $3.68。

然而，白宫在短期内降低柴油价格的可行方案很少。在特朗普 2 月份袭击伊朗以及德黑兰通过挤压霍尔木兹海峡原油运输进行回应之后，柴油价格的飙升幅度已经超过了整体石油价格的涨幅。

周五的举措不太可能大幅降低柴油价格，因为进入美国的俄罗斯燃料数量仅占需求的一小部分。

美国国内每天生产 360 万 桶原油，其中约三分之一出口到海外市场。欧亚集团（Eurasia Group）的石油分析师格雷戈里·布鲁（Gregory Brew）在 X 上发布关于该协议的消息时表示，短期内，俄罗斯协议将为美国市场提供大约每天额外 74,000 桶的供应。他还质疑在俄罗斯面临严重柴油短缺的情况下，该协议的可行性。

由于乌克兰的袭击，俄罗斯的柴油供应量骤降。为了使该协议生效，似乎需要暂停这些袭击行动。考虑到乌克兰在继续战斗方面在很大程度上依赖于特朗普的善意，它可能别无选择，只能配合。

这一公告发布之时，乌克兰谈判代表和高层

欧洲安全官员在迈阿密与特朗普的特使史蒂夫·威特科夫（Steve Witkoff）和贾里德·库什纳（Jared Kushner）举行了会晤。此次会晤被描述为在冬季到来前重启与俄罗斯和平谈判的尝试，由于俄罗斯对城市发起的袭击不断升级，预计乌克兰将面临一个艰难的冬天。

俄罗斯副总理亚历山大·诺瓦克（Alexander Novak）周五晚间告诉俄罗斯国家媒体，该国将“立即”开始取消柴油出口限制。

诺瓦克表示，随着炼油厂完成维护工作，该国可能会在11月和12月增加柴油出口。他补充说，尽管如此，俄罗斯市场仍将获得“充分”的燃料供应，但考虑到现有的短缺情况，他并未解释这些供应将从何而来。

特朗普与普京达成协议的时间，距离国会通过且特朗普签署一项赋予总统广泛权力以对俄罗斯及其能源产业实施新制裁的法律——即《2026年林赛·格雷厄姆制裁俄罗斯与伊朗法案》（Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026）不足一个月。

在放弃上月底提出的柴油出口禁令想法后，特朗普向欧洲施压，要求其释放部分柴油库存，这在一定程度上帮助价格略有下降。

但能源分析师表示，包括与俄罗斯达成协议在内的这些行动在很大程度上是表演性的，不太可能使柴油价格回落到接近美国和以色列袭击伊朗之前的水平。

柴油短缺的根本问题在于全球炼油基础设施的匮乏。中东和俄罗斯的炼油厂及其他生产基础设施所受的破坏造成了重大损失。这些设施价值数十亿美元，无法快速修复并恢复运行。

特朗普在霍尔木兹海峡保护船只的军事行动，已帮助增加通过该水道的原油数量，在许多日子里已接近战争前的水平。但这并没有解决柴油问题。

原油需要被精炼成企业和消费者实际使用的产品。而全球范围内的精炼能力已严重削弱。

“这确实给人一种印象，即美国现在直接关注俄罗斯炼油系统的健康状况，”莱斯大学贝克公共政策研究所（Baker Institute for Public Policy）的能源市场专家马克·芬利（Mark Finley）表示。

位于华盛顿的赖利·贝金（Riley Beggin）、位于柏林的玛丽·伊柳希娜（Mary Ilyushina）和位于基辅的科斯蒂安廷·胡多夫（Kostiantyn Khudov）对本报道做出了贡献。

特朗普在出台新政策前数日购买 SpaceX 债务

总统最新的财务披露文件揭露了此次购买行为

作者：CAT ZAKRZEWSKI

总统唐纳德·特朗普最新的财务披露表显示，在白宫宣布一项新的太空旅行政策前数日，他购买了价值 100万美元 和 500万美元 之间由 SpaceX 发行的债务。

在购买这些债券两天后，特朗普签署了一份阐明新政策的备忘录。该政策旨在加强太空运输，部分手段是通过支持相关产业，以便美国在 2030 年前每年能够支持 1,000 次以上的太空发射与返回。

SpaceX 是规模最大的太空发射公司，领先幅度巨大。其竞争对手包括由《华盛顿邮报》所有者杰夫·贝佐斯创立的蓝色起源（Blue Origin）。

特朗普购买 SpaceX 债券的行为与他近期披露的其他交易有所不同，无论是在规模上，还是因为总统的大多数其他购买行为涉及购买公司股票。

特朗普最新的财务披露详细列出了总统财务账户在各种可能受其政策影响的公司中所进行的 500 多笔交易。该表格仅以区间形式披露投资价值——在本案例中，为 100万美元 和 500万美元 之间。与之前的几任总统不同，特朗普并未将资产放入盲信托，且在他的第二个总统任期内，其账户已进行了数万次交易。

白宫发言人戴维斯·英格尔（Davis Ingle）在一份声明中表示，总统的交易不存在利益冲突。他表示，特朗普的股票和债券组合由第三方金融机构“独立管理”，并补充说，所有持仓均维护在全权委托账户中，并通过“自动复制公认指数（如 Schwab 1000）的计算机模型组合”进行投资。

“无论是特朗普总统还是其任何家庭成员，都没有能力指导、影响或就投资组合如何投资，或何时买卖投资提供建议，”英格尔说道。

然而，英格尔没有回答关于此次债券购买是否由该类算法执行的问题。他表示，所有投资决策均由“独立管理人完全做出”，但未回答关于谁决定购买 SpaceX 债务的问题。

确实存在包含 SpaceX 债务的债券指数。然而，一位因不直接了解总统财务策略而要求匿名的财务顾问表示，投资者为了追踪债券指数基金而购买债务的情况并不常见。

该人士表示，高净值人士有时会购买个股来追踪指数，以避免购买指数基金涉及的部分费用。但该顾问指出，这种做法很少应用于债券。

SpaceX 今年夏天出售债券是为了支持其在 AI 数据中心上的巨额支出，这些数据中心为其子公司、Grok 的制造商 xAI 提供支持。该公司在开发星链（Starlink）卫星网络和星舰（Starship）飞船方面也面临高昂成本。

通过出售债券而非发行更多股票，该公司在今年上市后，能够在不进一步稀释股权的情况下获取资金。

SpaceX 由特朗普的政治盟友埃隆·马斯克领导，马斯克在政府成立初期负责领导美国政府效率部（DOGE Service）。在经历了去年的紧张关系后，两人重新建立了联盟。马斯克频繁出现在白宫，参加了

特朗普为中国领导人习近平举行的国宴，以及他上周为 AI 首席执行官们主持的午宴。

周四，特朗普向马斯克颁发了国家科学奖章，以表彰他在 SpaceX 的工作。

“埃隆是我们时代的托马斯·爱迪生，”特朗普在颁奖时说道，“你是我的朋友，除此之外，你还是一个非常、非常特别的人。”

华尔街在油价波动中以上涨结束创纪录的一周

斯坦·乔（STAN CHOE） 美联社

纽约——美国股市在周五以上涨收盘，结束了创纪录的一周，尽管其他金融市场仍处于犹豫状态。

标准普尔500指数上涨0.6%，这是自三天前创下历史新高以来的首次上涨。道琼斯工业平均指数上涨423点，即0.8%，纳斯达克综合指数上涨0.6%。

在油价持续剧烈波动之际，股市表现强劲，波动源于人们不确定与伊朗的战争何时才会结束，从而允许全球能源产业恢复正常。布伦特原油每桶价格在102.50美元至105美元之间波动，最终定格在104.72美元，上涨0.4%。

在债券市场中，国债收益率在经历了本周早些时候的剧烈波动后，再次出现起伏。10年期国债收益率最终从周四晚间的5.22%攀升至5.24%。

由于对高通胀、美国政府巨额债务负担、美国经济持续增长的信号以及其他因素的担忧，该收益率近期触及了2002年以来的最高水平。高收益率通过增加所有人的借贷成本，威胁到经济增长速度，且平均30年期固定利率抵押贷款已跃升至近三年来的最高水平。

在华尔街，Humana公司上涨11.6%，尽管油市和债市出现波动，但该公司仍助力美股上涨。这家保险公司表示，它收到了关于其Medicare Advantage计划与竞争对手相比在质量评级方面令人鼓舞的数据。

拥有手机信号塔的公司也处于市场前沿，其中Crown Castle上涨15.6%，American Tower上涨9.3%。

在SpaceX宣布一项可能帮助其成为美国主要移动运营商的收购计划后，这些公司股价上涨。该计划仍需获得美国监管机构的批准，但SpaceX表示，收购低频频谱将使其Starlink Mobile业务拥有能够穿墙的信号，从而连接到那些可能无法访问其卫星的建筑物内部客户。SpaceX的股价上涨1.2%。

另一个强大竞争对手的威胁导致无线通信行业股价普遍下跌，包括T-Mobile US下跌13.3%，AT&T下跌9.8%，Verizon下跌8.7%。

在债券收益率高企带来下行压力的情况下，股价仍向纪录冲刺，这使得各公司普遍面临交付强劲利润增长的压力。下周将迎来该国最大银行的高关注度利润报告，包括花旗集团（Citigroup）、摩根大通（JPMorgan Chase）和富国银行（Wells Fargo），均在周二发布。

尽管美国人表示他们感到高通胀带来的压力越来越大，但市场对企业利润的预期依然很高。密歇根大学周五的一份初步报告显示，美国消费者正在提高他们对未来一年通胀严重程度的预测。

他们预计通胀率为

4.7%，高于一个月前的4.6%预测，以及与伊朗战争开始前2月份的3.4%预测。对于低收入和股票投资较少的美国人来说，消费者信心正在大幅下降，因为他们最无法承受生活成本的快速上涨。

总而言之，标准普尔500指数上涨46.18点，至7,811.54点。道琼斯工业平均指数上涨423.31点，至51,654.95点，纳斯达克综合指数上涨172.83点，至27,366.17点。

人工智能 模型向警方提交虚假谋杀线索

费城警方在一份声明中表示，一个来自 Anthropic 的人工智能模型通过费城警方网站提交了一则虚假的谋杀线索。这是 AI 模型失控并产生意外后果的最新一起事件。

据警方称，Anthropic 已于本周早些时候通知警方，并表示该提交行为是由一项自动化测试流程导致的。

在有关 AI 代理失控并入侵公司计算机网络的报道，以及知名研究人员警告其有一天可能对人类构成生存威胁的背景下，这项飞速发展的技术已成为国家高度关注的问题。9 月，Anthropic 的竞争对手 OpenAI 为一个失控的 AI 代理入侵澳大利亚政府网站一事道歉，这是已知首例 AI 代理入侵政府网站的事件。

费城警察局表示，该线索“被标记为垃圾信息，从未被转发至实时犯罪中心进行调查审核或分发”，并补充说 Anthropic 已告知警方，该公司计划于周五发布一份关于该事件的报告。

宾夕法尼亚州法律规定，“任何人”故意向执法部门提供虚假报告通常构成轻罪。这包括“在明知自己没有关于某项犯罪或事件的信息时，提供与该犯罪或事件相关的信息”。

Anthropic 告诉警方，在事件被发现后，该测试流程已被停止。

这则虚假线索是通过 PhillyUnsolved-Murders.com 提交的，涉及一起未破获的谋杀案。警方表示，该线索日期为 2026 年 7 月 18 日，声称来自一名可能掌握该案信息的人员。

医疗保健 治疗疱疹疮药物获批

美国食品药品监督管理局（FDA）周五批准了日本旭化成（Asahi Kasei）研发的一种药物，用于治疗某些免疫系统受损且对现有抗病毒治疗无反应患者的持续性单纯疱疹病毒疮。

这种名为 pritelivir 的口服药物由德国制药商 Aicuris 开发，旭化成于 4 月收购了该公司。

Pritelivir 能阻断疱疹病毒复制遗传物质所需的蛋白质，从而阻止其增殖，使该药物能够对抗一些对旧疗法具有耐药性的感染。

摘要

美国食品药品监督管理局的批准基于一项涉及 101 名参与者的后期临床试验。结果显示，在接受 pritelivir 治疗的患者中，62.7% 的患者疮口在 28 天内完全愈合，而接受其他治疗的患者中这一比例为 34%。——路透社

航空旅行 达美航空警告需抑制增长

达美航空（Delta Air Lines）周五表示，明年行业可能需要进一步抑制航班增长以保护盈利能力。尽管旅行需求强劲且票价上涨，但燃料成本激增迫使该航空公司将其 2026 年的利润预测下调了近四分之一。

这一警告凸显了美国航空公司面临的日益严峻的挑战。虽然强劲的需求和有限的座位增长帮助它们大幅提高票价以抵消更高的燃料成本，但为了获取更多需求而增加过多航班可能会加剧乘客竞争，从而难以维持高票价并保护利润。

由于伊朗战争导致全球航空燃料价格大幅上涨，这家总部位于亚特兰大的航空公司目前预计其年度燃料账单将比去年增加约 60 亿美元，比其 7 月份预测的金额多出约 20 亿美元。

全球航空公司都在为长期的燃料冲击做准备。瑞安航空集团（Ryanair Group）首席执行官迈克尔·奥利里（Michael O'Leary）周四表示，航空燃料价格的高企可能会持续 12 到 18 个月，这将增加航空公司提高票价和控制成本的压力。

达美航空首席执行官埃德·巴斯蒂安（Ed Bastian）表示，达美航空今年的票价上涨了约 20%，而旅行者的抵触情绪有限。他表示有信心，即使在燃料成本最终下降之后，这些较高价格仍能维持。

Melius Research 的分析师表示，达美航空提高票价的能力使其在燃料成本飙升的情况下，仍能保持下半年收益大致持平。但他们警告称，其利润率多年来一直难以提高。

民主党人，请不要扼杀美国能源业的这次胜利

上周，参议院谈判代表公布了一项折中法案。如果该法案获得通过，将构成几代以来美国能源领域最重要的改革。不幸的是，此前击败许可改革方案的相同力量——主要是左翼利益团体——正威胁要扼杀这项立法。民主党人应当明智地忽略那些反对者，并把握这次胜利。

该方案规模巨大，且充满了旨在推动各类能源开发的良策。鉴于人工智能热潮导致对新电力的需求激增，这一点至关重要。同时，为了给环保主义者声称支持的应对气候变化项目（如转向电动汽车和家庭供暖电气化）提供动力，这也是必要的。

该法案最重要的条款之一是对《国家环境政策法》（NEPA）的改革，该法是导致漫长的环境审查和无休止诉讼的根源。新法案将缩小 NEPA 的适用范围，例如将修复关键基础设施的项目免于环境审查。该措施还将对针对项目的诉讼设定严格的期限；一旦机构就该开发项目做出决定，反对者将有 150 天的时间提起诉讼。

类似的限制也将应用于根据《国家历史保护法》提起的诉讼。该法律导致了常规性的干扰性诉讼，阻碍了至关重要的建设，包括连接美国西南部各城市的输电线和新墨西哥州的风电场。

该方案的另一个重要元素将限制各州阻碍必要项目的能力。例如，目前希望在多个州建设输电线的开发商必须寻求每个管辖区的批准，而任何一个州只要不进行审查，基本上就可以否决该项目。其结果导致某些地区的投资陷入停滞，加剧了当地电网的拥堵并推高了价格。参议院的折中方案通过给予州官员一年的时间来审查项目来解决这一问题；如果他们未能采取行动，且联邦监管机构认定该提案符合国家利益，则联邦监管机构可以批准该提案。

此前破坏改革努力的相同力量正威胁要让这次尝试失败。

丹·科克（DAN KOECK） 北达科他州安德伍德附近的高压输电线。

该立法还限制了联邦政府的阻挠行为。其中一项条款禁止机构采取“旨在撤销、废除、撤回、终止、暂停、修改或变更联邦授权或许可的新行动”。这显然是对特朗普政府此前阻碍风能项目的短视行为的回应。

该法案还包括旨在允许公用事业公司就数据中心使用的能源基础设施收取更高费用的条款。与上个月在众议院获得两党支持通过的《纳税人保护法》相比，参议院的这项措施更具强制力。

尽管其中许多条款将使清洁能源产业受益，但一些环保组织正准备尝试扼杀该法案，因为其中包含一些将使化石燃料运输（尤其是通过天然气管道）变得更容易的条款。长期以来一直反对扩大联邦对州际电力线控制权的公用事业公司，也可能会发起游说活动。

其他民主党人则在观望，希望如果明年他们能控制众议院和参议院，就能谈判达成更好的协议。其中就包括众议院自然资源委员会的民主党首席议员贾里德·哈夫曼（Jared Huffman，加利福尼亚州）。

但这只是幻想。无论11月的结果如何，民主党人都需要共和党的支持才能在参议院通过法案。他们还需要总统唐纳德·特朗普签署任何措施。立法者可能并不认同法案中的所有内容，但等待一个完美的许可改革方案，只会导致行动停滞和经济停滞。

读者们在用什么词替代“奶奶 / 外婆”

尽管10月3日的风格指南文章《名字意味着什么？对Gigi（或Nana）来说意义重大》中列举了许多对祖母的称呼，但我认识的越来越多的大祖母们中，许多人都共用一个称呼：“GGMa”。这个词适合我们所有人，并且经常在代际之间传递。我的孙子曾有一个GGMa，现在我很开心他的两个小儿子也这样称呼我。随着平均寿命的增加，也许有一天“GGGMa”会变得普遍！

ILIA YEFIMOVICH / 在上周迪拜飞航（FlyDubai）1073号航班劫机未遂事件中，发生了许多奇迹。印度籍机长在遭到斧头袭击后打开了驾驶舱门，以便乘客能够制服恐怖分子副驾驶。一名水管工最初将飞机从俯冲状态中引导回正。飞机没有断成两截。在这个神奇的名单中再增加一项：阿拉伯国家与以色列的合作。

挫败的劫机事件揭示了中东局势的转变

这提醒人们，尽管敌对状态仍在继续，但伊朗在争取地区主导权的长期战争中可能并未获胜。

周四在耶路撒冷，以色列总统艾萨克·赫尔佐格（中）向塔莉（左）和兹维卡（右）·马内斯颁发总统平民英雄奖。塔莉在听到骚乱后呼救，兹维卡则冲向驾驶舱协助制服副驾驶。

当哈曼·阿尔-哈马米企图劫持这架飞往特拉维夫的航班时，这架载有180多人的人员在不正式承认犹太国家存在的国家上空下降了17,000英尺。乘客（其中大多数是以色列人）制服了哈马米；另一名恰好在飞机上的飞行员将飞机降落在沙特阿拉伯。

曾经是以色列死敌的国家在将乘客送回家方面发挥了关键作用。尽管与以色列缺乏外交关系，沙特阿拉伯仍允许飞机在其境内降落。已成为以色列关键合作伙伴的阿联酋目前羁押着该飞行员。阿联酋总检察长周五表示，哈马米计划将飞机撞向特拉维夫郊外的本古里安国际机场客运航站楼，并利用之前的两次飞行对航线进行了侦察。

情况并非总是如此。当现代以色列国于1948年正式成立时，阿拉伯国家曾试图摧毁这个新生国家。他们失败了。一些国家在1967年和1973年再次尝试。他们资助恐怖袭击，包括1976年另一起针对以色列人的劫机事件，该事件最终以一次被称为“恩特贝突击行动”的英雄救援任务而告终。

我的老年学教育中缺失的一课

在这种情况下，乌干达接纳了劫持了100多名（其中大多数是以色列人）人质的恐怖分子。在以色列特种部队解救了除3人以外的所有人质后，伊迪·阿明政府试图在联合国寻求对以色列的谴责。尽管沙特阿拉伯没有投票支持该决议，但该王国在不到五年后就允许阿明寻求政治庇护。到2026, 年，那些曾经援助以色列敌人的国家现在更倾向于与这个犹太国家合作，即便他们是悄悄地这样做。

《亚伯拉罕协议》是一系列由美国斡旋的以色列与几个阿拉伯国家之间的双边协议，这些协议锻造了这种更具合作精神的文化。这些协议在以色列与阿拉伯国家之间建立了外交关系，同时也包括经济、国防和旅游倡议。这对所有参与方来说都是一项福音：自2020. 年以来，阿联酋与以色列的贸易额增加了150 亿美元 billion。甚至被劫持航班的航线也是证据：从特拉维夫到迪拜的商业航班于2020年开始运行。

尽管沙特阿拉伯不是《亚伯拉罕协议》的签署方，但其与以色列的军事合作表明，这种新文化已经扩展到了形式之外。也门胡塞武装仍然是这个海湾国家的一根刺，但据报道，利雅得现在正转向以色列寻求情报共享，尽管是通过美国军事渠道实现的。

劫机者原籍国家——阿曼——此前已因其极端主义意识形态而禁止该副驾驶飞行，但由于缺乏外交关系，导致该信息未能传达给以色列当局。这应当促使人们重新推动加强合作。

紧张局势依然存在。打破惯例的是，由阿布扎比而非利雅得在调查此次劫机事件，且沙特人上周拒绝允许以色列军机接回乘客。调查显示，劫机者原籍国家阿曼此前已禁止该副驾驶飞行，因其持有极端主义意识形态，但外交关系的缺失阻碍了该信息触达以色列当局。这应当促使人们重新推动加强合作。

且不论伊朗是否参与此次事件。伊朗伊斯兰共和国上周失败了。我想到了伊朗革命的两个口号：“以色列必亡”和“美国必亡”。自1979, 年以来，该政权通过其伊斯兰革命卫队资助境外恐怖组织和袭击，以实现这些目标。通过资助哈马斯、真主党和胡塞武装等组织，德黑兰试图分裂中东并将美国排除在外。但这依然没有奏效。一个由美国斡旋的协议促进阿拉伯-以色列合作的中东，是对伊朗霸权的极大威胁。

油价依然高企，穆拉们继续发射导弹，但阿拉伯-以色列的合作并非小成就。尽管像哈马米这样的极端分子将继续试图在字面意义上地炸毁进步，但恐怖主义意识形态不会赢得这场持久战。

我6. 岁。我看到了关于祖母称呼的文章，但我没看到“Muwa”，这是我对其中一位祖母的称呼。我对另一位祖母的称呼是“Granny”。

艾莎尼·赫克尔，伯克

10月3日 的风格版关于祖母称呼的文章让我觉得很有趣。当我的孙女出生时，她的另一位祖母选择了“Gigi”这个绰号。正如文章所指出的，Gigi是祖母们喜欢被称呼的流行名字。我们的Gigi依然是Gigi。

另一方面，我想尝试一些不同的。我建议我被称作Lolli，而我的丈夫被称作Pop。坦白说，我觉得我们的“Lollipop”（棒棒糖）组合相当聪明。

结果证明，我的孙女没法说“Lolli”，说出来变成了“Lala”。（有些不公平的是，她能很流畅地说“Pop”。）当她大一点时，我的儿子和儿媳问我是否想改回Lolli，因为我的孙女现在能说这个词了。我保留了Lala。我热爱我的孙女为我起的名字。（此外，她认为圣诞颂歌《装饰大厅》是在唱我，而我还没有纠正她的这个想法。“Fa la la la la ...”）

拉雅·埃尔法德尔·凯尔贝克（Raya Elfadel Kheirbek）在10月4日发表的评论文章《作为一名姑息治疗医生，我学会了察觉谁不在场》有力地探讨了父母生命最后时刻亲人的缺席。当我的父亲在养老院去世时，他年届93岁，陪伴在他身边的只有他的治疗犬Penny及其主人。

我正在马诺学院（Manor College）学习心理学，我很喜欢理查德·西马（Richard Sima）9月22日在网上发表的“大脑事务”（Brain Matters）专栏文章《照顾孙辈可能有助于减缓认知能力下降》。我对认知功能深感兴趣，但我被这篇文章吸引的原因已超出了我的学术背景。

痴呆症未能夺走我祖母的精神

我已故的祖母患有阿尔茨海默病。她是一位善良的女士，但也很固执。她坚持要我从冰箱里拿点东西吃，如果我不听，她就会大发雷霆。她是典型的犹太祖母。

每逢节日和生日，她都试图给我现金，而我总是拒绝。她没有很多钱，所以接受这些钱总让我觉得不妥。现在，我发现自己陷入了一种纠结：我本应该接受她的钱，吃她提供的食物，因为也许那就是她表达关爱的方式。

西马写道：“作为祖父母的照顾行为可能与更年轻的大脑相关。”尽管我的祖母患有痴呆症，但她反应依然极其敏捷。她经常询问我的感情生活，有一天我问她：“您呢，奶奶？为什么您没有男朋友？”她说：“唉，太麻烦了。”

我的哥哥与父亲已经多年不往来，以至于父亲曾告诉我：“如果艾伦走进这个房间，我甚至认不出他。”我经常去看望父亲，但每次往返的旅费都要花费 $1,000。我和他主要通过每周一次的电话保持联系。我错误地认为这次又是父亲即将离世的另一次虚惊，而没能在他身边成为了我人生最大的遗憾之一。最令我心痛的是，竟然得由一只金毛寻回犬来传递我想亲自表达的爱。

父亲和佩妮都知道房间里缺了谁，但我祈祷他们都能像凯尔贝克写的那样，看到了“我的缺席”。感谢教授，您教会了我老年学硕士学位从未涵盖的一课：一个人临终时，不在场的人同样重要。

当凯尔贝克在结尾写道，“我逐渐相信，临终医疗的一项静默职责，就是简单地注意到那些不在房间里的人——并让临终者知道，他们的缺席已被察觉”时，这深深触动了我。我多么希望像凯尔贝克那样的人能让我父亲知道，我的“缺席已被察觉”。

在特朗普做出决定之前，美国无法在伊朗赢得胜利

如果你听信现在某些人的说法，华盛顿应该开始筹划胜利游行了。“我们赢了。伊朗输了。就这么简单，”CNN 的斯科特·詹宁斯（Scott Jennings）如是说。休·休伊特（Hugh Hewitt）表示赞同，《华尔街日报》的评论版也认为形势正在转变——而且他们说的都有道理。美国军队正协助美国在海湾地区的盟友确保霍尔木兹海峡的石油流动，同时扼杀了伊朗的出口。这是军事才智的卓越体现。但这并不意味着这场战争取得了成功。

回想一下事情是如何发展到这一步的。2025年6月，美国和以色列大规模轰炸了伊朗的核设施，特朗普宣布其核计划已被“摧毁”。八个月后的2月，他们再次开战，且野心更大。他们袭击了伊朗的领导层，杀死了其最高领袖和许多高级官员。特朗普敦促伊朗人推翻其政府。目标很明确：政权更迭。

但这个伊斯兰共和国幸存了下来，在强硬派将军周围团结起来，安装了新的最高领袖，并释放了其长期威胁要使用的武器：关闭霍尔木兹海峡，全球约五分之一的石油经过该海峡。在经历了七个多月的战争后，美国现在正投入一场大规模行动，旨在强迫伊朗停止封锁这条在战争开始前一直开放的水道。华盛顿发起这次行动是为了恢复原状——并将其进展称为胜利。

考虑一下仅仅为了回到原点所付出的代价。根据五角大楼的数据，账单已达到 450 亿美元 billion，国会预算办公室估计，即使是低强度冲突每月也将耗资 20 亿美元 billion。至少有 19 名美国军人死亡。美国可能已经使用了其某些先进导弹防御拦截器库存的一半到三分之二。更换这些武器可能需要五年多时间，而这些正是美国在面对中国时所需的武器。到 6 月底，至少有六艘美国军舰从太平洋被调往中东。

自战争开始以来，布伦特原油价格平均在每桶 $100 左右，比战前高出约 40%。穆迪分析（Moody's Analytics）首席经济学家马克·赞迪（Mark Zandi）估计，截至 7 月，这场战争给普通家庭带来的成本（包括价格上涨、利息支出和军事开支）超过 $1,200。仅在汽油和柴油方面，美国人就额外支付了约 1300 亿美元 billion。柴油价格上涨推高了卡车运输、农业和食品的成本。使用燃油取暖的家庭在今年冬天可能面临高出 50% 的账单。

海外的损失令人震惊。海湾国家对华盛顿的信任已然破碎。此外，他们还面临着飙升的运输成本和崩溃的旅游业。迪拜的酒店入住率从 2 月的近 85% 骤降至 3 月的 23%。各国政府必须花费数十亿美元修复基础设施并建设绕过霍尔木兹海峡的替代路线。能源进口国（这意味着世界上大多数国家）在支付账单时倍感吃力。

在越南战争期间，美国经常详细列举其对敌人造成的巨大破坏，从摧毁的武器到敌军死亡人数的统计。但衡量成功的标准是，这些破坏是否能让对手认输。到目前为止，伊朗尚未投降，且有理由认为更多的轰炸不会改变这一现实。

特朗普方案的根本问题在于，他无法决定自己是想要改变伊朗的政策，还是想要改变其政府。财政部长斯科特·贝森特（Scott Bessent）在 9 月的一次采访中揭示了这种矛盾，当时他说向其他国家传递的信息是：“这个政权已经到头了。”然而在同一场采访中，他坚称目标不一定是让政府崩溃，而是向其施压以进行谈判。

上个月在联合国发表讲话时，特朗普在思考他是否应该达成一项协议，允许伊朗重建成为一个更强大的国家，或者“迅速消灭这个伊斯兰共和国”。与此同时，他的特使史蒂夫·威特科夫（Steve Witkoff）和贾里德·库什纳（Jared Kushner）正在与伊朗官员进行谈判。华盛顿一方面威胁要摧毁该政府，另一方面又要求其认真谈判。

如果伊朗领导人认为无论他们怎么做，华盛顿都打算摧毁他们，那么他们为什么要做出让步？他们的动力将是抵抗、施加代价并比美国撑得更久。在《外交事务》（Foreign Affairs）杂志中，斯蒂芬·比德尔（Stephen Biddle）及其合著者认为，战争最终是通过政治交易结束的。军事力量可以改善这些交易的条款，但不能替代交易。美国在从越南到阿富汗再到伊拉克的过程中，反复忘记了这一教训，证明了其在摧毁军队方面拥有非凡的技巧，但在将战场成就转化为持久政治成果方面则逊色得多。

特朗普政府必须决定它想要什么。如果目标是政策改变——重新开放霍尔穆兹海峡、限制伊朗的核计划并遏制其地区侵略——那么它必须定义可实现的条款并向伊朗施压使其接受。如果目标是政权更迭，那么它必须为一场血腥的斗争做好准备，且可能会产生更多的地区外溢效应。在华盛顿解决这一矛盾之前，美国将继续陷入其最新的中东泥潭之中。

谷歌与 Anthropic 之说——以及文明的未来

互联网时代最重要的首次公开募股（IPO）——谷歌在 2004 年的上市——与如今看来即将上市的、可能是当代最具定义性的人工智能公司 Anthropic 之间，存在着令人深思的平行之处。

如果 能在感恩节之前成功向公众出售股票，这不仅预示着一家新上市公司的到来（就像 22 年前的谷歌一样），更预示着一个行业的诞生。 在许多方面镜像了 2000 年代中期的谷歌，而其关键的不同之处，则揭示了硅谷和整个社会在一代人之间所经历的变迁。

谷歌上市时的估值在当时令人震惊，达到了 230 亿美元 billion。但这仅是微软近 3000 亿美元 billion 市值的一小部分。而且当时的谷歌仅成立六年。而成立于 2021, 年的 据称正在寻求 $2 trillion 的估值。虽然这仍低于英伟达和苹果公司约 $5 trillion 的惊人市值，但对于一家像 这样业绩记录有限的公司来说，这个数字简直不可思议。

往昔的谷歌与今日的 在其产品初创市场中处于相似的地位。正如 并非首个推出 Claude AI 助手的公司——是 OpenAI 的 ChatGPT 让市场认识了“生成式”AI——谷歌当年也是在雅虎之后才进入“搜索引擎”业务的。尽管 尚未像谷歌最终吞噬雅虎那样超越 OpenAI，但 Claude 已成功地掩盖了 ChatGPT 的光芒，而后者曾在 热潮的短暂瞬间独占鳌头。

的联合创始人兼首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代（Dario Amodei）与谷歌创始人拉里·佩奇（Larry Page）和谢尔盖·布林（Sergey Brin）一样，都偏好书信体式的冗长表达。谷歌的两位创始人公司上市时年约 30 岁，他们在公司 IPO 招股说明书中给潜在股东写了一封著名的信，警告称“谷歌不是一家传统公司，我们也不打算成为这样一家公司”。现年 43, 岁的阿莫代是一位高产的作者，经常发布关于 对世界影响的思考。他最近的一篇发文是一篇 3,800 字的恳求，呼吁 公司放慢脚步。

在沟通方式上，2026 年已成为一家非常传统公司的谷歌与 之间有着共同的精明之处。对于谷歌而言，传达出一种按自己的规则行事的决心是一种战略优势。其口号“不作恶”（Don’t Be Evil）——该口号在公司上市时被显著标出，随后在 2018 年被悄然从行为准则中删除——曾引起人们的关注。而 从成立之初就将自己定位为一家关注安全性的 公司——这实际上是在讽刺 OpenAI，阿莫代在共同创立自己的公司之前曾在那里工作。 宣称的使命是“为了人类的长期利益，负责任地开发和维护先进的 ”。敦促 参与者停下来思考其努力可能带来的灾难性后果，既可以是一种真诚的担忧，也可以是一种保护 商业优势的精明手段。

甚至这两家先驱公司在各自 IPO 时面临的市场条件也十分相似。谷歌的领导层在 2004 年担心市场动荡，因为雅虎最近报告的业绩疲软，导致投资者对互联网股票失去信心。而已经与潜在机构投资者会面的 ，目前正在决定是否应在市场波动（这已导致其他公司推迟公开亮相）的情况下强行推进其发行计划。

KENT NISHIMURA / . 29.

当然，Anthropic 并非谷歌，两者之间存在显著差异。谷歌的产品深受消费者的喜爱，而消费者无需付费即可使用。Anthropic 则将自己定位为企业的宠儿，企业需要为其高级版本支付订阅费用。

谷歌在 IPO 时已经获得了极高的利润；而 则并非如此。谷歌仅在 2004 年上半年就赚了近 1.5 亿美元，其通过销售高利润广告来“印钞”的商业模式令投资者欣喜若狂。根据路透社的一份提前预览 股东招股说明书的报告，该公司去年的营业亏损达 80 亿美元。其对计算能力永无止境的渴求正在吞噬潜在利润。

谷歌上市的主要原因只有一个：一项现已修订的证券法要求股东人数超过 500 人的公司必须公开披露财务业绩。谷歌认为，既然必须披露这些信息，不如直接享受成为上市公司的好处。而 则迫切需要额外的资金，以支持其在数据中心容量方面的巨额投资。如果其 IPO 无法顺利进行， 将从私人投资者那里筹集更多资金。

两家公司之间最大的区别或许在于 IPO 所面临的风险。谷歌最大的担忧是能否管理好其增长。其数字广告的创新方法最终能否在大规模范围内奏效，对社会而言意义不大。而 及其整个行业的成功，则代表了其自身承认的对人类的风险。路透社援引该公司警告称：“我们对高度先进的模型、平台和应用程序的开发以及用例的扩展，可能会进一步增加我们的模型造成伤害的风险。”路透社还指出，在 261 页的招股说明书中，有 80 页在讨论风险，而描述其业务的内容仅有 48 页。

谷歌的 IPO 代表了数字经济的一次范式转移。而 面临的赌注则要高得多，毫不夸张地说，其行为很可能会影响我们所认知的文明。

分析

我们不必生活在密码的噩梦中。有更好的方法。

三年前，谷歌将通行密钥（passkey）认证设为消费者账户的默认选项，使 Gmail 用户无需依赖密码。但许多网站仍未提供此功能。 DAVID GOLDMAN / AP

作者：罗布·佩戈拉罗 (ROB PEGORARO)

在登录某个网站后，你能可靠地看到人类露出微笑的少数时刻之一，是在黑客电影中：身穿连帽衫的英雄看到自己的漏洞利用程序奏效，随后得意地宣布：“我进去了！”

另一个时刻，则是当通行密钥认证——一种相对较新的网站和应用程序登录方式——像广告宣传的那样奏效时。

我不需要记忆或输入密码。相反，一种静默且快速的加密凭据交换，允许网站和我的计算机验证彼此的身份以及我的访问权限。我通过触摸设备的指纹传感器进行确认——然后，砰地一声，我进去了。

三年前，谷歌将通行密钥认证设为消费者账户的默认选项，使 Gmail 用户无需依赖密码。但许多网站仍未提供此功能，或者将其视为一项安全方面的“支线任务”。而且，用于简化通行密钥使用的软件和硬件仍然不完善。

为了改写消费者科技新闻中一句较为著名的句子：通行密钥的使用起来可能仍然太困难，而这并不是你的错。

通行密钥能做到而密码做不到的事

通行密钥让密码成为历史

通行密钥让密码——以及记忆密码的需求——成为了历史。你不再面临攻击者可能获取这些珍贵信息片段的风险。

相反，通行密钥依赖于一对数字密钥，并采用由一个名为快速身份在线联盟（FIDO）的贸易组织监管的标准。当你为某个网站创建通行密钥时，该网站会为你存储一个唯一的公钥。你设备上的软件（通常是浏览器或密码管理器）则保存相应的私钥。你不需要记忆任何内容。

当你下次使用保存了通行密钥的软件访问该网站时，网站会要求证明你拥有该通行密钥。软件会发送一个由私钥生成的签名，而不是私钥本身。

最后，你确认自己是操作者，通常使用你已经用来解锁设备的指纹或面部识别生物识别安全验证。

这巧妙地解决了欺诈者试图诱骗你在伪造网站上输入密码的传统网络钓鱼攻击问题（是的，这是一个指向 2004 年《华盛顿邮报》报道的链接），因为通行密钥会话只能在正确的网站上启动。

这也省去了通过发送到设备的一次性代码来验证密码登录的需求——这在如今的在线账户中已成为一种日益无法逃避的常规操作。

通行密钥无法解决有人偷走你的计算机并强迫你解锁的问题。但如果这种情况发生，你将面临一个大得多的问题——与此同时，通行密钥本身也面临着你作为个人无法解决的问题。

支持情况不一，甚至在竞争对手之间也如此

主要的电子邮件和云服务迅速推出了通行密钥（passkey）认证，以减少账户被盗用。亚马逊（Amazon）、沃尔玛（Walmart）和百思买（Best Buy）等大型在线零售商随后也纷纷效仿，因为它们看到了留住那些因密码而苦恼的客户的机会。

（亚马逊执行主席杰夫·贝佐斯拥有《华盛顿邮报》。）

但在其他网站上，通行密钥的部署依然令人恼火地参差不齐。在 FIDO 联盟目录等通行密钥支持列表中列出的几乎每一个知名品牌，你都能找到多个忽视通行密钥的竞争对手。

酒店业？凯悦（Hyatt）支持，而希尔顿（Hilton）、洲际（IHG）和万豪（Marriott）则不支持。航空公司？法国航空和新西兰航空已加入，而美国航空公司则没有。我用于业务的地区银行欢迎使用通行密钥登录，而我打交道的规模大得多的银行则不支持。

兼容通行密钥的网站通常仍要求将密码作为备份选项，以防你丢失存有通行密钥的设备，但其中太多网站（例如 LinkedIn）仍将密码显示为默认登录方式。其他一些网站（根据我的经验，如 Facebook 和 Login.gov）则直接要求你先用密码登录，然后才允许你确认使用通行密钥而非双重验证码。

许多忽视通行密钥的网站反而试图通过增加用户的工作量来解决安全问题：它们在每次登录时都强制执行多因素认证。

其中最糟糕的网站仅通过电子邮件或短信发送一次性验证码，然后强制你逐个字符输入，而不是粘贴整个代码。它们简直是在宣布：“我们讨厌我们的用户，尤其是那些患有阅读障碍的用户。”你可以预见，它们将是全球最后一个支持通行密钥的群体。

设备支持情况不佳

如果你将计算活动局限在一家公司的平台内，并且你使用的每台设备都支持生物识别认证，那么体验通行密钥的生活将是最简单的。

如果某台设备不允许你通过指纹或面部登录——这在低端笔记本电脑甚至高端台式机中是遗憾地常见的场景——那么在该设备上的每次通行密钥登录都将要求输入你用于解锁机器的任何密码。这种情况很快就会让人厌烦。

最简单的通行密钥场景是仅使用一个浏览器并由其管理通行密钥，但如果你不混用平台，即使使用多个设备，情况依然相对简单。

你只使用 Mac、iPhone 和 iPad？苹果的“密码”应用即可胜任。而你依赖的是谷歌的 Chrome 浏览器以及 Android 和 ChromeOS 操作系统？谷歌密码管理器（Google Password Manager）可以工作。

但如果你分散使用不同设备——就我而言，包括一台 Mac 台式机、一台 Windows 笔记本电脑、一部 Android 手机和一台 iPad mini——你就需要一个能够在所有这些系统之间同步的密码管理器。

大多数跨平台密码管理器都需要年度订阅；然而，Bitwarden 不需要，并且一直获得我信任的网站的正面评价。与此同时，我使用 1Password，部分原因是该服务向记者提供免费服务。

还有一件事

密码管理器本身本应通过标记弱密码和重复使用的密码，使生成、保存和使用复杂密码变得简单，并且仅在正确的网站上自动填充，从而解决我们的安全问题。

但即使是优秀的密码管理器，也无法阻止一个压力过大或疲惫的用户忽略域名不匹配的警告，并在钓鱼网站上粘贴密码。而人工智能正让钓鱼诱饵变得更具说服力。

多因素身份验证本应治愈钓鱼软件的瘟疫，但诈骗者很快就想出了如何将用户在仿冒网站上输入的验证码复制到正确网站的方法。

而在那之前，我们还面临着像“每 90 天更换一次密码”这样愚蠢的 IT 部门教条。

因此，如果你看到又一轮关于更改网站登录方式的安全建议，然后心想“真的吗？又来？”，那么你对这个不断让你失望的行业的厌烦并不是你的错。

但通行密钥（passkeys）确实有效。这次我是认真的。

招聘人员称，这种古老的职业恐惧现已成为过去式

在招聘网站 Monster 2026 年的一项调查中，13% 的受访者表示他们在简历中撒了谎。 ISTOCK

利用职业经历中的空白期来引导对话

作者：朱莉娅·卡彭特 (JULIA CARPENTER)

当千禧一代和其他年轻员工在动荡的就业市场中摸索时，他们经常听到职业建议，警告他们不要频繁“跳槽”，并要警惕令人恐惧的“简历空白期”。

但如今，跳槽在职场中已变得更加常态化。公司及其员工之间不再像以前那样期望彼此永远忠诚。在许多行业中，招聘经理明白，从一家公司跳到另一家公司通常既是财务上的考量，也是职业选择。

当人们在正常的生活进程中定期更换工作时，过程中必然会出现一些空白期。那么，为什么那个可怕的旧观念——“简历空白期”——仍然让求职者心生恐惧？

努琳·阿里 (Noureen Ali) 表示，在她开始从事猎头工作时，她清晰地记得自己接受过相关培训，将简历空白期和频繁跳槽视为一个人缺乏承诺能力的指标。现在，她担任 McLean and Company 的人力资源咨询服务首席总监，为领导者提供人才战略和招聘建议。她说，如今的招聘经理和招聘人员不再需要依赖这类“信号”了。

“那实际上并不代表能力，”她说，“那些是过时的成功预测指标。”

但在一个棘手的就业市场中，人们担心任何小细节——求职信中的一个拼写错误、一段简历空白期、一个过时的 LinkedIn 个人资料——都可能让他们处于劣势。在招聘网站 Monster 2026 年的一项调查中，13% 的受访者承认在简历中撒过谎，主要是为了增强自己的技能描述，或篡改就业日期，以尽量减少空白期的迹象。

迪克莎·古普塔 (Diksha Gupta) 是一位住在夏洛茨维尔的 35 岁博士后研究员，她说为了避免出现“简历空白期”，她采取了极端的措施——与配偶隔海而居，并跨越不同的大洲寻找工作。她担心这在未来的雇主看来会产生负面影响。

“我该怎么说？尽管我有博士学位，但如果我没有工作，在别人看来会是什么样子？”她说，“我最大的恐惧是他们认为我能力不足，或者认为我有什么问题导致我找不到工作。”

但 LendingTree 的人力资源高级副总裁丽莎·威廉姆斯 (Lisa Williams) 表示，如今大多数雇主在看到简历上有空白期时不会犹豫。人们在工作之间会有空档，可能是因为个人健康原因、照顾家人的责任、公司裁员或是一次特别漫长的求职过程。

但如果简历上的空白期超过六个月，威廉姆斯不希望求职者试图隐藏或掩盖这段时间——相反，她鼓励他们在面试或求职信中直接说明。她说，有意识地界定这段时间可以开启关于在所谓“空白期”内获得的相关证书、技能和生活经验的更深入讨论。最重要的是，正面提及意味着你可以掌控对话的主导权。

“不要隐藏它，因为那样你就把解释权留给了雇主，即使那只是像‘不幸的是，我受到了公司裁员的影响’或‘我在照顾生病的家人’之类的事情，”她说，“你不需要提供太多细节，但只要将其命名并写在简历上，就能防止雇主做出不应做出的假设。”

为什么退休人员重新回归职场？原因有很多。

作者：约翰·克西扎尔（JOHN CSISZAR）

在工作数十年后，许多退休人员计划在夕阳余晖中远去，最终享受一些自由时间和休闲活动，由社会保障金和储蓄来覆盖开支。

但对于一些退休人员来说，账目根本对不上。在纸面上看起来舒适的退休生活，当账单开始上涨时——尤其是面对固定收入时——结果却截然不同。

根据劳工统计局的数据，2025, 18.4 percent of Americans ages 65 and older were employed，2025, 18.4% 的 65 岁及以上美国人处于就业状态。另外，美联储发现，在认为自己已退休的人群中，有 16% 在过去一个月内从事过有偿工作。在这一群体中，52% 的人在 2025 年将其归因于财务原因，高于 2024. 的 45%。表示仅为了维持生计而需要钱的人数比例从 25% 上升到 30%。

规划不足并不一定是问题所在。传统的压力，如意外的医疗账单或家庭义务，继续挤压着退休人员。但正如我们过去几年所见，持续的通货膨胀甚至能让深思熟虑的退休预算脱轨。

根据劳工统计局针对 62 岁及以上美国人的通货膨胀衡量标准，在 2021 年 8 月至 2026 年 8 月之间，价格上涨了约 23%。

破产律师及 Ashley F. Morgan 律师事务所的所有者艾什莉·摩根（Ashley Morgan）经常与面临财务困难的客户打交道。摩根表示，她看到退休人员在应对一系列典型开支上涨时倍感吃力，从食品价格到房产税和保险费。

还有一个额外的问题是，许多退休人员还在为家庭成员提供财务支持，这造成了另一项储蓄流失，而有些人事先并未对此做出规划。

许多退休人员没有能力同时应对这些接踵而至的各项高额开支。“你无法为所有事情做好准备，”摩根说。

债务是另一种可能迫使退休人员重返职场的开支。在制定财务计划时，许多人设想的是一个无债的退休生活。但当成本同时上涨时，一些人会求助于信用卡来填补缺口。美联储的研究发现，在 2025 年期间，60 岁及以上的成年人中有 33% 至少一次持有信用卡余额。

即使是随着时间推移而产生的少量信用卡交易也会使情况恶化。一名每月缺口相对较小（$500）的退休人员，到第一年年底可能会背负 $6,000 的债务。加上利息支出，问题可能会增长得快得多。

Sentara Capital 的创始人兼财务顾问威尔·艾伦（Will Allen）表示，退休人员经常低估其开支随时间变化的程度。许多人在退休预算中仅包含了适度的通胀调整，并且“尚未更新过去几年的累积影响”。

退休后重返职场也可能带来一些潜在的财务复杂情况。

在达到法定退休年龄之前开始领取社会保障金的人，如果其收入超过一定限额，其福利可能会被暂时扣留。2026, 社会保障金对全年低于法定退休年龄的退休人员，在收入超过 $24,480 的部分，每赚得 $2 就扣留 $1。福利将在法定退休年龄时进行调整，以抵消扣留的部分。

额外的收入可能会使更多的社会保障福利成为所得税的征收对象。即使是参加联邦医疗保险（Medicare）的退休人员，未来也可能面临更高的保费，形式为一项与收入挂钩的调整，该调整通常使用两年前的税务信息。

为了避免不情愿地重返职场，在离开职场之前，退休开支需要设定在现实范围内。

艾伦建议在仍有工作时尝试执行退休预算。例如，如果有人预计每月支出 $8,000，可以尝试在一年内按此金额生活，以观察其可行性。

他还强调，通常破坏退休预算的并非定期的每月支出，而是那些在规划过程中经常被忽视的不定期支出，例如房屋维修或向家庭成员提供财务援助。为了避免这种情况，艾伦建议退休人员审查几个月的银行和信用卡账单，以便记录不定期支出并为意外成本预留资金。

毕竟，在仍有薪水入账时对退休计划进行调整，要比在薪水消失后容易得多。

阿弗莱克的《动物》缺乏人性纹理

作者：杰克·科伊尔（JAKE COYLE） 美联社

我们现在已经有了2部黑泽明《天国与地狱》的翻拍片，但竟然没有一部《野良犬》的新演绎版本。

尽管这种不平衡令人遗憾——你可能有自己最喜欢的黑泽明作品——但并不难看出1963年《天国与地狱》在当代的吸引力。这是一个精妙的情节：一位富有的商人认为自己的儿子被绑架了。但绑匪误抓了另一个男孩：他的司机的儿子。支付赎金变成了一个充满社会经济紧张局势的痛苦道德困境。

去年，斯派克·李在《Highest 2 Lowest》中将这部剧转移到了纽约和音乐产业。现在，在一部新的Netflix电影中，本·阿弗莱克将《天国与地狱》转移到了洛杉矶和政治领域。

在《NAZA》中，电影制作人将镜头对准以色列的战争机器

撤销亚伯拉罕和索尔的公民身份。

作者：伊森·贝克（ETHAN BECK）

2023年，在以色列开始在加沙开展军事行动后不久，以色列电影制作人和记者尤瓦尔·亚伯拉罕（Yuval Abraham）与瑞秋·索尔（Rachel Szor）开始在特拉维夫对士兵和情报官员进行采访。

由此产生的纪录片《NAZA》审视了以色列在加沙用于识别军事目标的技术。片中的匿名消息人士表示，该技术也被用于杀害巴勒斯坦平民。

这场战争是对2023年10月7日由哈马斯领导的袭击的回应，该袭击导致约1,200名以色列人死亡。根据加沙卫生部的说法，这场战争已导致超过74,000名巴勒斯坦人死亡，该部门并不区分平民和战斗人员。包括总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡在内的以色列官员谴责了这部电影，并威胁要

在9月于威尼斯电影节首映并获得25分钟起立鼓掌后，《NAZA》在月底以色列选举前进入美国影院。此前，亚伯拉罕和索尔曾拍摄过获得奥斯卡奖的纪录片《没有其他土地》（No Other Land），该片关注了以色列最高法院称可以拆除的约旦河西岸村庄。

在《NAZA》的大部分内容中，亚伯拉罕坐在特拉维夫的屋顶上，直接向24名在加沙战争中担任职务且身份保密的士兵提出问题。在美国纽约电影节举行的首次公开放映遭到了一个与以色列美国委员会相关的少数团体的抗议。

“不同的人有不同的原—— 详见 B2 版《NAZA》

对黑泽明经典之作的平庸重塑，始终缺乏活力

接 B1 版《ANIMALS》

WARRICK PAGE / NETFLIX / AP

在《Animals》中，塞西莉亚和拉蒙的儿子（由路易斯·赫拉尔多·门德斯和阿德里亚娜·帕兹饰演）被误绑架。一名危机处理专家（由吉莉安·安德森精彩饰演）被雇来提供帮助。

在丹泽尔·华盛顿和 A$AP Rocky 之间，是一节挤满了高喊着“波士顿真烂！”的洋基队球迷的地铁车厢。那绝非他的最佳作品，但毫无疑问是一部典型的斯派克·李电影。

但在执导、共同编剧并主演《Animals》的阿弗莱克身上，这部为 Netflix 拍摄的、对黑泽明作品的平庸改编却始终缺乏活力。

在将故事转移到洛杉矶时，与康纳·O·麦金太尔和比利·雷共同撰写剧本的阿弗莱克，将这个绑架故事扩展到了新的主题维度——离婚、公众形象、欺骗——这些主题对于阿弗莱克而言具有深远的共鸣，因为作为好莱坞的一线明星，他在职业生涯的大部分时间里都在应对波动不定的民调和广为人知的个人生活剧码。然而，这些平行关系不足以让这部远称不上“狂野”的《Animals》变得生动。这部由阿弗莱克执导的电影，远逊于他那些以“A”开头的优秀作品《阿尔戈》（Argo）和《空中》（Air）。

电影以政治广告的虚饰开场。马克·金博尔（阿弗莱克 饰）正在竞选洛杉矶市长，在电影光鲜的开篇中，他真诚地承诺透明化。但随着《Animals》片头字幕的滚动，一个不那么美好的现实随之而来。当马克在竞选总部面带微笑时，他的竞选经理萨姆（史蒂文·燃 饰）告诉他，巨额的广告支出并没有起到足够的作用：他仍然落后于现任市长四个百分点。

马克维持着乐观的表象，但在办公室里，恐慌正在蔓延。为了给广告筹资，马克抵押了自己的房子。马克说，如果他输掉选举，他将失去房子，随后不久将失去妻子。

就像马克的政治形象一样，他的家庭生活在很大程度上也是为了作秀。他的妻子阿比盖尔（克里·华盛顿 饰）是一名心理学家，她正在出轨。马克对此并不知情，但我们可以感觉到他们的关系在很大程度上只是一个空壳。马克还以支持移民为政纲，但当夫妇俩的管家塞西莉亚（阿德里亚娜·帕兹 饰）请求他们雇佣她那没有合法身份的丈夫拉蒙（路易斯·赫拉尔多·门德斯 饰）时，他们出于担心这可能会损害马克的竞选而拒绝了。

在万圣节之夜，马克和阿比盖尔的儿子丹尼被绑架了。一个电话打来：700万美元 以救回他。对于富有的金博尔一家来说，这通常是可以解决的——但因为马克已经抵押了所有财产，筹钱变得更加复杂。在萨姆的建议下，他们请来了一位神秘的危机处理专家戴尔·伯顿（吉莉安·安德森 饰），我们由此推断，她不可避免地将使马克反对腐败的承诺陷入妥协。

从一开始，这就是一场针对被绑架男孩和马克政治竞选的双重危机。即使在如此紧张的时刻，马克的竞选经理仍鼓励他考虑事情在外界看来会是如何。而当事实证明绑架者在无意中绑走的不是金博尔的儿子，而是塞西莉亚和拉蒙的儿子时，这一点就更明显了。

本年早些时候将一家人工智能公司以超过 5亿美元 的价格卖给 Netflix 的本·阿弗莱克曾表示，他在制作《Animals》时使用了 AI。很难分辨具体用在了哪里。但更大的问题在于，这部电影整体显得平淡，视觉效果乏味。

阿弗莱克是一位精明且深思熟虑的电影制作人，能够熟练地将人性故事、类型片机制和社会议题交织在一起。但《Animals》在叙事上显得力不从心，且带有强烈的刻意煽情。这部电影给阿弗莱克提供了一些展示其西班牙语能力以及评论公众官员和亲密关系中普遍存在的虚假表象的好机会。但它完全无法企及黑泽明作品中的那种推进力。

阿弗莱克在今年早些时候将一家人工智能公司以超过 5亿美元 的价格卖给了 Netflix，他曾表示在拍摄《动物》（Animals）时使用了 AI。但很难分辨具体用在了哪里。更严重的问题在于，《动物》整体显得平淡且视觉乏味，缺乏故事所需的真实人性质感。

但在《动物》彻底失去吸引力之前，安德森为电影施了一场短暂的魔咒。她饰演的角色戏份较少且剧本单薄，但她——在今年早些时候的《米亚斯玛营地的青少年性与死》中表现惊艳——提升了这部电影的格调。即便被分配到像“人类是会讲故事的动物”这样笨拙的台词，安德森依然是这个“动物”王国的女王。

《NAZA》在威尼斯电影节获得热烈掌声。内塔尼亚胡并非其粉丝。

（接B1版《NAZA》报道）

“……有理由发声，”亚伯拉罕在纽约表示。“对他们中的一些人来说，他们觉得有必要地说话——尤其是用希伯来语——以穿透以色列社会中否认、辩解和沉默的墙壁。”

电影中的许多发现与以色列的人工智能技术及其在加沙的使用有关，这些内容此前已在《卫报》（The Guardian）上发表。该报与以色列-巴勒斯坦《+972》杂志以及希伯来语刊物《Local Call》共同制作了《》。

《邮报》报道称，在10月7日袭击发生三年后，以及唐纳德·特朗普总统的加沙和平计划实施一年后，加沙人民仍面临凄惨的境况。数十万人住在帐篷中，深受传染病困扰，而医院依然不堪重负。《》包含了2023年10月和11月在加沙拍摄的手机画面，记录了巴勒斯坦人在废墟下寻找家人的场景。

“你不需要听以色列士兵的讲述就能理解加沙正在发生的恐怖之事，”亚伯拉罕说。“他们坚持发声的部分原因在于，仍然有很多人在否认这些事实。我们的部分希望是，通过拍摄这部电影，让这种否认变得稍微困难一些。”

以下是相关要点。

** 是什么意思？**

“”是“nezek agavi”的缩写，意为“附带损伤”。电影中的人物使用“”来描述在袭击前计算的平民伤亡人数。纪录片中的一名受访者表示， 指标并不区分儿童和成年人。

另一名士兵表示，导致平民死亡人数少于 20 人的目标不需要特殊授权。一名受访者称，他们曾获得一项针对一名哈马斯武装分子的行动批准，尽管预计会有 500 名平民死亡。军方否认此次袭击或“任何接近该数字的袭击”发生过。

“战争之初，我们轰炸了一切，”一名士兵说。“ 根本不是问题。”

为什么受访者选择匿名？

在《》中，一名士兵表示，如果他们在电影中露面，以色列政府会对他们进行报复。亚伯拉罕表示，除非获得匿名保证，否则受访者不会开口。在调查新闻中，为了保护消息来源而给予匿名是常见做法。

“这部电影无法通过任何其他方式完成，”亚伯拉罕在9月表示。“因为罪行仍在继续，我们认为拍摄这部电影至关重要。我们也理解其中存在的复杂性。”

以色列军方批评电影中的匿名证词，称这些指控“笼统且无法验证”。亚伯拉罕和索尔则表示，这些证词经过了审核。

电影聚焦于什么样的军事技术？

《》的受访者主张，以色列使用了先进的系统（通常涉及人工智能）来杀死疑似哈马斯的武装分子。一名受访者回忆起曾参与开发并使用一种人工智能工具，创建加沙巴勒斯坦人的数据库，以建议与哈马斯有关的目标。另一名《》的消息人士描述的另一个系统则负责推荐袭击目标建筑。

（以色列国防军在关于该电影的一份声明中表示：“算法从未决定过一次袭击。”）

一名受访者称，巴勒斯坦人受到监视，方式是通过黑入他们手机上的摄像头和麦克风：“你会感觉有点像上帝，因为你能听到他们说的每一句话。”

有人表示，这样做是为了确定目标人物何时回到家中。情报官员使用“爸爸在哪儿？”（Where's Daddy?）这个短语来指代黑入一个孩子的手机，随后对该家庭发动空袭。“你黑进她的手机，然后杀了她，”一名受访者说道。

受访者如何看待这场战争？

在亚伯拉罕的引导下，一名受访者表示这场战争导致了种族灭绝，这与去年联合国委员会得出的结论一致。“我们必须如实描述这些事情，”对方补充道。几个人描述了一种围绕着“完成任务”的重要性感，其中一人补充说他们并不憎恨阿拉伯人。许多人表示，他们认为自己不应该发声。“我只是一个小齿轮，”一人说道。

在《NAZA》接近尾声时，一名受访者将加沙正在发生的事情与大屠杀进行了对比。电影通过提到当时在特拉维夫举行的一场关于纪录片导演克劳德·兰兹曼（Claude Lanzmann）的回顾展来引出这一对比——兰兹曼执导了1985年的电影《浩劫》（Shoah），该片包含超过九小时的大屠杀幸存者访谈。“我仍然认为纳粹是邪恶的，”一名受访者说，“但这意味着我是什么？”

流行病、停电、人工智能成为掩体建造者的担忧之源

B1 掩体

照片由 VIVOS GROUP 提供

（从顶部起顺时针方向）：一个配备家庭影院系统的地下客厅。这个厨房的两台冰箱可以存放大量食物。掩体上下铺（试着快速连读五遍）。

当有人想要在地下挖个新洞时，很难责怪其他人也开始怀疑自己是否也需要一个。

掩体的设计旨在让居住者度过紧急状态，且需要独立运行，通常完全位于地下且脱离电网。这意味着每一个请求，无论多么基础或奢侈，都会遇到同样棘手的问题：空气从哪里来？污水去哪里？内部有多少人，能待多久？

随着避难所及其旨在应对的威胁不断演变，这些问题变得更加复杂。长期以来，掩体的设计是为了保护居民免受核武器放射性尘埃的影响。如今，建造者则在应对关于停电、电磁脉冲、流行病、网络攻击、化学和生物武器以及人工智能的担忧。

“各地首要的威胁是长期的电网崩溃事件，”卡姆登在描述一种长期的电力丧失状态时说道，在这种状态下，食物、水和其他基本服务将变得匮乏，可能导致骚乱或其他安全问题。“电网很脆弱。这就是现在每个人在设计时考虑的重点。”

解决方案各不相同。一些公司出售简单的外壳，由买家自行完成内部装修；另一些公司则将定制避难所工程整合到私人庄园中，配备独立电源、水源、空气过滤系统、医疗空间，而在最高端的产品中，还包括精致的配套设施。其结果是，市场对于掩体应该提供什么，以及买家愿意为此支付多少钱，存在截然不同的看法。

在 Vivos xPoint（一个由 575 个混凝土掩体组成的共享生存社区，建在南达科他州的一个前陆军弹药库内），客户可以以约 55,000 美元的价格租赁一个 2,200 平方英尺的未完工掩体，租期 99 年，或者以约 75,000 美元的价格购买一个带土地的掩体。内部装修需额外付费。

预制避难所占据了市场的另一个层级。德克萨斯州制造商阿特拉斯生存避难所（Atlas Survival Shelters）列出的模块化钢制型号起价约为 60,000 美元，较大版本的价格在计算运费和安装费之前，可攀升至数十万美元或更高。

定制住宅避难所的价格要贵得多。卡姆登表示，一个现浇钢筋混凝土掩体在装修前的成本通常约为每平方英尺 800 美元至 2,400 美元，具体取决于深度、场地条件和所需的保护级别。这些住所的目标市场并非中产阶级：他的公司 Hardened Structures 目前在八个住宅项目中约有 7,000 万美元的工作在进行中。

一些客户希望避难所的功能不像紧急避难所，而更像受保护的住宅。建造者描述了私人卧室、自来水和卫生设施、独立能源以及冥想室、电影院、健身房和水疗中心等配套设施。关于像马克·扎克伯格这样科技巨头庞大综合体的报道很多，他在考艾岛 1,400 英亩的房产中包括一个 5,000 平方英尺地下避难所的计划。但即使是非亿万富翁的买家，在面对末日时也希望拥有生活舒适度。

“现在的人们更想要那种居家感，”向更广泛客户群推销避难所的 Vivos 公司成员丹特·维奇诺（Dante Vicino）说道。“以前他们可能能接受极简主义的实用主义（内部装修），但现在他们要求特殊的厨房橱柜、台面和中岛……带有套内浴室的主卧，以及手工制作和爱好室的空间。”

掩体的规模差异极大。在大多数情况下，避难所规模较小且为私人所有，埋在高端住宅的下方或旁边，但一些公司描述的是规模宏大的受保护庄园或社区。犹他掩体系统公司的资深核工程师夏伦·帕克表示，她目前的项目清单中包括一个耗资数百万美元的庞大掩体，可容纳一家私人公司的400名员工及其家属。位于弗吉尼亚州麦克莱恩的一家名为SAFE的公司声称，他们设计的避难所配备有水疗中心、卡丁车赛道和拘留区。而位于堪萨斯州农村的生存公寓（Survival Condo）则是一个复杂的综合体，拥有教育设施、攀岩墙和一个75英尺长的盐水游泳池。

但拥有掩体的第一条规则似乎就是：不要谈论你拥有掩体。业主通常不希望泄露其位置，经验丰富的建筑商在严格的保密协议下工作，且该行业充斥着难以验证的雄心勃勃的声明。完工的项目与光鲜的渲染图之间并不总是那么容易区分。

耶鲁大学的建筑师兼教授凯勒·伊斯特林表示，该领域在某种程度上处于主流建筑论述之外。虽然城市设计师经常处理有关气候韧性、土地和基础设施的问题，但她将私人末日掩体视为私有化加剧和财富集中等趋势的一种体现。

当然，不确定性是这种交易的一部分。虽然某些工程部分可以精确计算——例如空气、水、废物、电力、占用人数和存储——但围绕掩体设计的其他问题则较为模糊。人们实际上能在地下停留多久？这是否足以撑过所面对的紧急情况？

针对核事件，帕克告诉客户，单次爆炸产生的最危险辐射在约两周内会大幅下降，这使得在许多场景下无需极长时间的地下停留。长期生存可能更多地取决于地面上还有什么在运行。卡姆登通常引导私人客户不要设计超过30天的停留时间，尽管有些人要求他的公司规划一年或更长时间。停留时间越长，所需的食物和物资空间就越多，而且还需要更多空间用于隐私、活动以及简单的彼此隔离。

“在避难所里待了一段时间后，我简直等不及要赶紧离开那里了，”他说。

为理论上的灾难做规划可能会将客户引导至意想不到的方向。帕克曾帮助一名客户为马匹设计掩体，在家庭避难所与建在山坡上的屏蔽区域之间设有通道。不过，通常情况下，她会尝试与人们坦诚相见：她告诉他们，当没有技术人员来维修时，复杂的系统可能会失效。她借鉴在瑞士接受的避难所培训，建议保持简单。而对于不习惯管理日常运营的超富裕客户，她提供了一个实用的建议：“给你的修理工留个房间。”

在许多末日场景中，人的问题会转向更阴暗的方向。卡姆登表示，一些项目纳入了他所谓的“反叛乱”程序，旨在防止安保人员或其他占用者在危机期间夺取避难所的控制权。每个地下避难所都需要一个紧急出口。“如果没有出口，你建的就是一座坟墓，”他说。

在卡姆登的职业生涯中，他观察到人们恐惧的灾难在不断变化，从核战争到千年虫，再到人工智能。他说，他最大的掩体项目位于阿巴拉契亚山脉，面积达15,000平方英尺，是在2012年玛雅历结束的恐慌中匆忙完工的。最终，什么也没有发生。

“未来不过是一系列可能性，”他说，“没有人知道会发生什么。”

生日 / 10月10日：

有些人正沉浸在你目前所做的事情中。今年请享受生活！你的创造力和对生活的热情正处于巅峰！培养你内在的幸福与美好。放下戒备，放松一点。在寻找乐趣的同时，不要忘记你的目标。

月相警示：今天下午 6:30 之后请避免购物（食品和汽油除外）以及做出重要决定。新月位于天秤座。

白羊座

(3月21日-4月19日)

今天的新月是你思考如何改善最亲密的长期关系的机会。你是否在认真倾听？审视你在关系中的行为。你期待什么？你能提供什么？你是一个什么样的朋友？

金牛座

(4月20日-5月20日)

(4月20日-5月20日) 今天是一年中最适合思考如何更聪明地工作并尽可能提高生产力的日子，因为新月正处于你的就业宫。即使你没有拿薪水的固定工作，这一点同样适用。设定目标会有帮助吗？列清单呢？

双子座

(5月21日-6月20日)

(5月21日-6月20日) 今天的新月促使你审视对待浪漫的态度、与孩子相处的方式，以及你对自身创造天赋的认可（或缺乏认可）。你是否享受你的休闲活动和创作机会？思考：创造、繁衍与娱乐。

星座运势

巨蟹座

(6月21日-7月22日)

你是一个顾家的人。今天一年中唯一一次出现在你星盘这个位置的新月到来了，这是你思考如何改善与家人关系的机会。为了改善居住环境，你可以做些什么？有什么想法？

狮子座

(7月23日-8月22日)

今天一年中唯一一次出现在你沟通宫的新月正在发生。观察你日常与每个人相处的方式。你的沟通是否清晰？是否友好？是否礼貌且体贴？还是你忽略了这些能丰富生活的品质？

处女座

(8月23日-9月22日)

今天的新月位于你的财帛宫。你对某件事的信念会影响它在生活中的体现。你是否将金钱视为促成事情发生的能量？你是“来快去快”，还是认为“省一分就是赚一分”？

天秤座

(9月23日-10月22日)

今天一年中唯一一次出现在你星座的新月正在发生。现实地照照镜子。你给世界留下了什么样的印象？你的外在很大程度上决定了人们如何对待你以及如何回应你。有什么想法？

天蝎座

(10月23日-11月21日)

今天的新月位于你星盘中象征潜意识行为的部分。因为每一次新月都是做出决心的机会，你可能会审视自己在哪里在自我削弱。在我生活的哪些领域，我最容易自我挫败？

桥牌

“简单的周六”专栏侧重于基础技巧和逻辑思维。

“一次免费的试牌（finesse）代价是多少？”这看起来像个傻问题，就像“谁设计了埃菲尔铁塔？”一样。但在今天的牌局中，这个代价是 730 分。

南北方轻松叫到 3NT，西方拒绝从他四个长套之一领出；即使他能建立赢墩，也没有进入权来兑现。他尝试了一张黑桃，南方通过打出明手（dummy）的 J 进行了“免费试牌”。

当东方的 Q 盖过时，南方打出一张小牌，赢下下一张黑桃，并让梅花 Q 悬在空中。东方拿走 K 并领出第三张黑桃，迫使明手的 A 出现。南方只有 8 个赢墩，当他领出红心时，东方赢牌并兑现了两张黑桃。输一墩。

南方必须在第一张黑桃时从明手打小牌，并用 K 赢回，保留 A-J。接着他在梅花上试牌。当东方赢牌时，

射手座

(11月22日-12月21日)

今天的新月是你制定友谊决心的机会。你是否在与你真正想在一起的人共度时光？你的朋友是否是优秀的人？如果你想拥有朋友，请先变得友好！

摩羯座

(12月22日-1月19日)

今天的新月位于你星盘的顶端。这种情况每年发生一次，这是你观察自己与权威（老板、警察、法院、父母和政府）相处方式的机会。今天也是思考长期目标的绝佳日子。三年后你想处于什么样的位置？

水瓶座

(1月20日-2月18日)

这可能是今年最适合审视你的教育背景和世界经验的一天。什么样的进一步培训或教育可以改善你的生活和工作？什么样的旅行能丰富你的世界？今天请思考这个问题，哪怕只是简短地思考。

双鱼座

(2月19日-3月20日)

(以3月20日发布) 今天的新月位于涉及债务和共同财富的财帛宫。这是今年思考如何减少债务的最佳日子，同时也可以审视你对自身资源的依赖程度与对他人帮助的依赖程度。

他无法有效地回打黑桃。如果他领出方块，南家获胜并迫使对方出掉红心A。他能确保拿到10个墩。

每日问题

你持有：

♠ AJ2 ♥ K6 ◆954 ♣A10953

你的搭档开叫 1 心，你叫 2 梅，他再次叫 2 心。你该如何叫牌？

答案：凭借 12 个好点数和一个五张套组，你可以承诺进入局赛。此时加叫心会太仓促；搭档可能有 6 张或更多心，但并未承诺超过 5 张。叫 2 黑。如果搭档接下来叫 2NT，则加叫至 3NT。如果他叫 3 梅，则叫 3 心。如果他再次叫 3 心，则加叫至 4。

NICK CAMMETT / GETTY IMAGES 芝加哥白袜队的球迷们将他们对教皇的祈求带到了客场，就像这位观众上个月在克利夫兰面对分区对手守护者队时所做的那样。

南区救星？

复苏的白袜队在美联东区除赛（ALDS）中陷入绝境。幸运的是，他们认识一个人：教皇利奥十四世（Pope Leo XIV）。

作者：斯蒂芬妮·阿普斯坦 (STEPHANIE APSTEIN)

在八月的短短几分钟里，罗马主教、基督代表、使徒之首的继承者、普世教会的最高教宗、梵蒂冈城的君主以及上帝仆人之仆，仅仅是一个名叫鲍比（Bobby）的13岁男孩，他手里拿着一颗棒球，凝视着它。

2026年的白袜队为他们最著名的粉丝签了这颗球，并由汤姆·麦卡锡神父（Father Tom McCarthy）将其放在随身行李中寄给他，随附的还有几件球衣、三角旗、摇头娃娃以及白袜主题的主教冠（在俗人中更广为人知的称呼是教宗帽）。现在，出生于芝加哥、原名罗伯特·弗朗西斯·普雷沃斯特（Robert Francis Prevost）的教职人员——教宗利奥十四世（Pope Leo XIV），正翻找着盒子，每当他拿出一件周边商品时都会惊呼出声。

“他当时，”麦卡锡在上周回忆道，“就像圣诞节早晨的孩子一样。”

在拆开礼物时，麦卡锡讲述了白袜队最近在率特球场（Rate Field）举办的“教宗之夜”：赠送教宗帽、在看台上行和平之礼，以及为了纪念第14任教宗利奥而向中西部奥古斯丁省捐赠的$14,000支票。（“你为什么不取名叫约翰？”麦卡锡打趣道，“那样你就是第24任了。我们能多拿到$10,000！”）

麦卡锡总结道，那是一个伟大的夜晚。

REMO CASILLI / 路透社 教宗利奥十四世出生于芝加哥，在伊利诺伊州多尔顿长大，只要有机会，他就会在公开场合自豪地穿着白袜队的周边产品。

“是的，”教宗说，“可惜我们没赢。”梵蒂冈没有回应寻求了解利奥如何关注白袜队争夺美国联盟冠军旗帜细节的消息，但亲近他的人表示，他确实一直关注着球队的进展。

这位“美国的教宗”成为美国国民运动的粉丝，感觉很自然。而他支持芝加哥白袜队，则感觉更加自然——因为这支球队在近年来可能比任何其他球队都更需要神圣的干预。

2024年的白袜队输掉了121场比赛，这是MLB现代era. 125年来的最高失利场数。在那一季的8月17日，他们被排除在季后赛竞争之外，最终落后第四名41场。

随后他们削减了薪资支出，从$123 million降至7400万美元。他们在2025年开局表现糟糕，战绩为10–28, 胜率仅为.263。

但随后白烟升起，不知怎么地，白袜队也随之而来了。在 newly elected 的利奥在圣彼得广场戴上白袜队球帽的同时，他们在该年度剩余比赛中取得了50–74 (.403) 的战绩。这种复苏在本赛季得以延续：白袜队最终以84–78, 的战绩排名美国联盟中区第二，在外卡赛中横扫休斯顿太空人队，详见B9页关于教宗的报道。

首都人队击败顽强的纽约队

作者：丹妮尔·艾伦塔克 (DANIELLE ALLENTUCK)

这支纽约游骑兵队不再像其前身那样容易被击败。在以东部联盟最差战绩完赛一年后，纽约队在周五来到资本一号竞技场（Capital One Arena）时，正处于4-1 start，且取得了四连胜。

但华盛顿首都人队也比一年前更强大。虽然花了一些时间，但他们最终展现了成长，在蒂莫西·利尔杰格伦（Timothy Liljegren）和布恩·詹纳（Boone Jenner）的进球带动下，在资本一号竞技场以3-1击败了游骑兵队。

首都人队以3-1, 开始本赛季，其中包括在大都会赛区取得3-0。

“我认为这是一场艰苦的比赛，双方都没有太多空间，”教练斯宾塞·卡伯里（Spencer Carbery）说，“只是双方在内线的博弈。……他们打得很好，防守也很好，这是一场精彩的冰球赛，所以看到我们拿到两分是很不错的。”

如果能获得每个人的贡献，华盛顿队本赛季将取得成功。虽然首都人队没有真正的明星前锋，但他们拥有更深厚的阵容深度，这意味着他们不必依赖一名球员或一条进攻线来获胜，周五的胜利证明了这一点。

游骑兵队在本赛季的第一节占据主导地位，未失一球。他们再次做到了这一点，取得了1-0的领先，详见R10页关于首都人队的报道。

NHL缩短训练营并未减少糟糕的开局

作者：STEPHEN WHYNO 美联社

在NHL历史上最早的一次全联盟开赛的前三天，出现了直接让人想起20世纪80年代的比分。

埃德蒙顿油人队和温哥华加 Canucks 队分别打出了6-5和9-7的比分。匹兹堡企鹅队以7-0.大胜费城飞翼队。科罗拉多雪崩队以8-4击败洛杉矶国王队。

“现在进球很多，这说明比赛中仍然存在一些松散的打法，”纽约岛人队教练彼得·德博尔（Peter DeBoer）周四表示。

比赛表现较为糟糕，得分略有上升，而守门员拦截冰球的效率低于上赛季。但在缩短训练营且季前赛减少后的前60场左右比赛结束后，几乎没有证据表明，与以往那些在基本功方面存在差距的开局相比，这已经大幅改变了冰上的比赛表现。详见 B10 页 NHL 报道

迈克·迪特卡 / 1939-2026

这位名人堂成员是芝加哥的化身

作为一名革命性的近端锋，他随后执教熊队并带领球队夺得了其唯一的超级碗冠军

作者：JIM LITKE 美联社

芝加哥 —— 迈克·迪特卡（Mike Ditka）逝世，享年86岁。他在作为熊队球员和教练的名人堂生涯中，体现了芝加哥的强悍与坚韧，并且领导了堪称NFL历史上最具统治力的球队。

迪特卡的家人周五在一份声明中宣布了他的去世。

“我们怀着深切的悲痛宣布，我们挚爱的丈夫、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一名名人堂足球运动员、传奇教练以及芝加哥熊队第20届超级碗冠军队的领导者，但我们知道他是我们家庭的核心。迈克将被无限思念，被永远铭记。”

在球员时代，迪特卡被昵称为“铁迈克”（Iron Mike），他帮助革新了近端锋这个位置，随后转入教练席并接任芝加哥队的主教练。他执教的1985,年球队拥有该运动史上最具统治力的防线之一。该队还拥有足够强烈的个性，录制了一段名为《超级碗洗牌》（The Super Bowl Shuffle）的说唱视频，并在三个月后的冠军赛中用实力证明了这种自信。

在他担任芝加哥队教练期间，他可以说是NFL中最具辨识度且最常被模仿的人物，他留着浓密但修剪整齐的胡须，穿着一件胸前印有“BEARS”字样的毛衣背心。几十年后，在熊队的比赛中，球迷们依然在模仿这种标志性的造型。这一点，加上他在场边愤怒到面红耳赤的发脾气，启发了20世纪80年代《周六夜现场》（Saturday Night Live）中广受欢迎的“Da Bears”小品。

在退役后，迪特卡成为了一名餐厅经营者、推销员和电视名人，同时也是改善前球员医疗和退休福利的强力倡导者。

迪特卡强悍且粗犷，是典型的芝加哥熊队成员。从点餐到用一声低吼将防守后卫撞翻在地，他无所不能。他的定居家乡沉醉于他的每一分钟。

“1985年夏天当我到达芝加哥时，迈克·迪特卡和芝加哥熊队是王者，”前总统巴拉克·奥巴马在X上写道。“迪特卡教练为一支具有惩罚性、统治力且有趣的球队奠定了基调 —— 这座城市因此热爱他。我正在想念迪特卡一家和各地的熊队球迷，在 the

聚焦：赛车

NASCAR 社区缅怀并赞颂布什

奥斯汀·狄龙也在这一小时的仪式上发表了讲话。

作者：史蒂夫·里德（STEVE REED） 美联社

北卡罗来纳州康科德 —— 周五晚上，NASCAR 社区和 10,000 多名赛车迷在夏洛特赛车场举行了一场令人振奋的仪式，共同纪念凯尔·布什的一生。

布什的遗孀萨曼莎·布什在这次免费活动中发表了一段 10 分钟的感人演讲，分享了他们共同生活的回忆。但真正成为全场焦点的是他们 11 岁的儿子布雷克斯顿，这位未来的赛车手驾驶着父亲在 Richard Childress Racing 杯赛系列赛中使用的 8 号赛车，在赛道的正面直道上表演了一次烧胎，随后爬上车顶，挥舞着方格旗并做出父亲标志性的鞠躬动作以向其致敬。

“我不希望觉得我们今天在[他的生命]上画上了句号，”萨曼莎·布什说道。“这不是凯尔故事的终点。每当我们给年轻赛车手一个机会，分享他教给我们的东西，或者向下一代讲述是什么让他如此令人难忘时，他的故事就一直在延续。”

根据这位前 NASCAR 球星的死亡证明，布什于 5 月因细菌性肺炎并发症导致败血症，随后因出血性休克和弥散性血管内凝血而意外去世。他享年 41 岁。

周五晚上的主题是回忆美好的时光。

体育日报

萨曼莎·布什谈到了凯尔在职业生涯末期是多么快乐——尽管在一段时间内没有赢得太多比赛——因为他热爱成为一名父亲，并抚养布雷克斯顿和 4 岁的女儿伦尼克斯。

她分享了在全国各地的泥地赛道度过夜晚的回忆：在比赛结束后的深夜，她感到精疲力竭，而布雷克斯顿则和他的朋友们一起在身上沾满泥土和油脂地四处奔跑。

她说，这些是她将最珍视的回忆，并称那是他们最幸福的时光。

库尔特·布什（凯尔的哥哥，前杯赛冠军）分享了关于这位被亲切地称为“Rowdy”的赛车手的故事、回忆和趣事。克里斯托弗·贝尔、诺亚·格拉格森、丹尼尔·苏亚雷斯、凯尔·拉森以及

“即使在很小的时候，他也想在每件事上都比我做得更好，”库尔特·布什说。“在赛道上很难击败他，尽管我比他大六岁。”

2001 年库尔特·布什在达灵顿赢得了他的首个杯赛杆位后，记者询问了他关于弟弟的情况，当时他的弟弟正在全国各地的低级别赛事中赢得比赛。

“我那时说，‘你们觉得我很强，那就等着凯尔来到这里吧，’”库尔特·布什说。

布什在 NASCAR 三大国家级赛事中共赢得 234 场比赛胜利，是历史上任何车手中的最高纪录，他被认为是毫无疑问的第一票入选名人堂的人选。

他的大部分成功是在乔·吉布斯赛车队（Joe Gibbs Racing）取得的。车队老板乔·吉布斯回忆起布什在为他驾驶时的火爆性格。

在布什职业生涯早期，在新罕布什尔州劳登的一场比赛之后，这位名人堂 NFL 教练在布什获得第二名后，偷听了他的赛后采访。在布什结束采访后，吉布斯心想：“嗯，还不赖，”他认为情绪激动的布什已经控制住了自己的情绪。

几秒钟后，布什走到吉布斯面前，手指指向他的胸口，缓慢地、一字一顿地说：“你的车。太烂了。”

位于夏洛特的 NASCAR 名人堂在周五还揭幕了一个新展览：“凯尔·布什：致敬传奇”，旨在纪念布什 25 年的职业赛车生涯。

该展览展出了布什在 2015 年 NASCAR 杯赛冠军赛季所驾驶的 18 号乔·吉布斯赛车队丰田凯美瑞，以及突出其成就和对这项运动影响的视频和图像。

萨曼莎·布什被允许为展览选择一辆赛车，她选择了丈夫的 18 号乔·吉布斯赛车队 M&M's 赛车，这是他赢得首个杯赛冠军时驾驶的赛车。

“当我看着这辆车时，我看到的不仅仅是一个冠军，”她说。“我看到了凯尔为了赢得它所克服的一切。”

凯尔·布什 11 岁的儿子布雷克斯顿驾驶父亲的赛车，在夏洛特赛道的前直道上表演了一次烧胎，令观众惊叹。

内布拉斯加队自 2016 年以来尚未在赛季开局取得 6-0 的战绩。那一年也是玉米huskers队最近一次击败美联社前 25 名球队的年份。当排名第 7 的印第安纳队 (5-0, 2-0) 四年来首次访问林肯市时，内布拉斯加队 (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten) 将在 2026 年迎来挑战排名对手的首次机会。印第安纳队教练库尔特·西格内蒂对内布拉斯加队四分卫安东尼·科兰德雷有充分的直接了解。这位前弗吉尼亚州名将曾在 2023 年输给西格内蒂率领的詹姆斯·麦迪逊队，尽管当时他传球达 377 码并获得两次达阵。科兰德雷已成为一名双威胁球员，在上周战胜马里兰队的比赛中跑球达到职业生涯最高的 108 码，但本赛季他尚未面对过像印第安纳队那样强悍的防线（场均 237.8 码，场均 10.8 分）。

排名第 21 的 UCLA 将在对阵排名第 13 的俄勒冈队时，尝试保持不败并争取在尤金市取得该项目 20 多年来的首场胜利。棕熊队 (4-0, 2-0 Big Ten) 在过去五次与鸭子队 (3-1, 1-0) 的交锋中全部落败，且在面对这位前 Pac-12 竞争对手的最后八场比赛中均告失败。不过，UCLA 首年教练鲍勃·切斯尼对奥岑体育场并不陌生，他曾率领詹姆斯·麦迪逊队参加 2025 年大学橄榄球季后赛与俄勒冈队的对决。由于明星四分卫丹特·摩尔仍在从脑震荡中恢复，从内布拉斯加转会而来的迪伦·赖奥拉将为鸭子队首次首发。

作为排名第 2 的佐治亚大学主教练，柯比·斯马特几乎实现了他设定的所有目标——唯一缺失的是在排名第 6 的阿拉巴马大学主场赢得一场胜利。常规赛接近半程，斗牛犬队（5-0, 3-0 SEC）仍未受到严峻考验，在对阵阿肯色大学、俄克拉荷马大学和范德堡大学的前三场联盟比赛中，每场比赛几乎都以 27 分的优势轻松获胜。斯马特曾是阿拉巴马大学获得全国冠军时的防守协调员，他表示，深红潮队（5-0, 3-0）将带来巨大的挑战——在两支球队中，深红潮队拥有唯一一场击败排名球队的胜利，即上周大胜当时排名第 16 的密西西比州立大学。

在对阵俄克拉荷马大学比赛前，曼宁铭记家族教诲

在四分卫家族的支持下，阿奇·曼宁周六将率领德克萨斯大学挑战俄克拉荷马大学。 ADAM CAIRNS / COLUMBUS DISPATCH / USA TODAY NETWORK

“我说：‘你可以失败。大胆去闯吧。你知道的，放手去做，’”库珀·曼宁回忆起他对自己儿子阿奇（上图）说过的话。 RANDY SARTIN / USA TODAY NETWORK

德克萨斯大学四分卫的父亲与叔伯们 揭示了塑造他的智慧

作者：KEVIN SHERRINGTON 《达拉斯早报》

达拉斯 —— 在这个足球第一家族扎根之前，只有阿奇。他一个人就足够出众。回顾 1969 年他代表密西西比大学对阵阿拉巴马大学时，他共创造了 540 码的成绩，成为大学球员中首位在单场比赛中传球 300 码且冲球 100 码的选手，而那个时代的四分卫大多只是负责接球。

如果不是不幸在纽奥良圣徒队开启了为期 13 年的 NFL 生涯并因此限制了成长，阿奇可能会被视为曼宁家族中最出色的一员。在他前五个赛季中的三个赛季里，他领跑联盟的被擒次数，其中 1975 年的次数高达 49 次。

如果他不是如此擅长为了保命而奔跑，这个数字可能会更高，但没人知道具体是多少。

周三晚上，在怀利剧院举行的棉花碗经典赛主旨演讲小组讨论中，阿奇的三个儿子 —— 库珀、佩顿和伊莱 —— 并没有花太多时间回顾父亲的辉煌战绩。阿奇传给孙辈（包括在奥斯汀的那位）的教诲很少涉及足球。他有一套不同的优先级，这在一定程度上是由他年轻时的一场悲剧塑造的。

首先，给读者的一点说明：在德克萨斯大学对阵俄克拉荷马大学之前，本文的初衷应该是对比曼宁家族成员作为四分卫的表现。但正如经常发生的那样，一个更好的故事抢占了先机。为了论证起见，让我们给他们排个名，把这件事解决掉。佩顿领先伊莱，随后是阿奇。阿奇尚未进入这个讨论范围，尽管他具备上述三人的特质。

此外，如果我没读错的话，他的其中一位叔叔在周三甚至可能暗示，在德克萨斯大学再待一年或许并非坏事。

无论如何，如果你只想听一个关于曼宁家族的故事，那么你必须听到的是这位族长至今对后辈产生的影响。如果你好奇为什么阿奇称祖父为自己的榜样，请参考阿奇儿子们的证词。

伊莱称父亲“善良”、“有礼貌”且“迷人”，而这仅仅是他观察父亲与球迷互动时的感受。

“他是我们的父亲，我们的英雄，我们的榜样，也是我们最喜欢的四分卫，”佩顿说，“这一切都融合在了一起。”

阿奇传授的第一课是“陪伴”的礼物。1984, 年 35 岁退休后，他曾有机会担任教练，但当时库珀、佩顿和伊莱分别只有 10, 8 和 3, 岁。于是，他选择留在纽奥良的家中。

他始终在场。

“我能在看台上看到他，”佩顿说。“这对我很重要。”

阿奇热爱足球，热爱足球关于牺牲、团队协作以及如何面对胜负的教诲，但他没有强加给儿子们。在比赛回家的路上，他不会告诉他们哪里做对了或做错了。他告诉他们什么才是重要的。

“无论我们赢了还是输了，赛后他都会告诉我们他爱我们，并为我们感到骄傲，”佩顿说。“他在读大学时失去了父亲。”

“这对他育儿理念产生了巨大影响。”

埃利沙·阿奇博尔德·“巴迪”·曼宁二世于 16, 1969, 8月去世，距离他儿子对阵克里姆森潮队的重大比赛仅差两个月。面对财务问题和中风的影响，巴迪用猎枪自杀了。阿奇在卧室里发现了父亲。他烧掉了床垫，并尽一切努力防止母亲和妹妹回家看到那一幕。

他提出愿意辍学工作以养家糊口，但他的母亲绝不答应。她一直是他最坚定的支持者。而他后来也培养出了整整一代支持者。

如今，阿奇作为四分卫之父和之祖的名声，或许比他当年作为四分卫时的名声还要响亮。他被公认为这项运动史上最伟大的绅士之一。但这么说吧，他那几个深爱他的儿子们则完全是另一种风格。

佩顿和伊莱现在在《周一之夜足球赛》（Monday Night Football）中发表见解，其出镜率与他们身穿球衣时一样高。库珀曾是一名接球手，但在密西西比大学大一时被诊断出患有脊髓狭窄症，导致足球生涯被迫中断，不过他也身兼多职。

他们在现实生活中同样机智敏捷。比如当主持人萨姆·阿乔问佩顿为什么选择去田纳西大学而不是他父亲的母校时。

“他没被密西西比大学录取，”伊莱打断道。

当佩顿选择田纳西大学时，阿奇承受了来自牛津市忠实拥趸的大量压力。他们想知道，他怎么可能不让才华横溢的儿子选择密西西比大学——这本可以成为该项目的转折点。阿奇告诉他们，这是他儿子的决定，而不是他的，他不会对此提出质疑。他的儿子们将这一教训铭记在心，这一点在阿奇选择德克萨斯大学时得到了证明。

记录在案的是，佩顿热爱在田纳西大学度过的四年。他说大四那年为他在印第安纳波利斯的未来做好了准备，让他身体和心理上都变得更强韧。在我看来，他当时似乎在向某人传递某种信号。

从目前情况看，阿奇在奥斯汀可能还需要再待一年。无论你如何争论 NFL 的诱惑力，曼宁家族做事的方式就是不同。

当阿乔问到，作为全美顶尖项目中一名曼宁家族成员，阿奇的父亲如何帮助他屏蔽随之而来的嘈杂干扰时，库珀说：“没有一个完美的答案。”他说，就像面对人生大多数考验时一样，他会问自己：如果是阿奇会怎么做。

最近，他也有了其他的灵感。他的创业项目之一是一个名为“我们需要第四个人”（We Need a Fourth）的高尔夫播客，合作伙伴是前 ESPN 播音员肯尼·梅恩和《办公室》中的凯文——布莱恩·鲍姆加特纳。他们本周的嘉宾是 J.J. 斯庞。在去年球员锦标赛的附加赛中获得亚军（仅次于罗里·麦克罗伊）后，斯庞告诉他们，他输掉比赛的原因是他满足于成为亚军。

三个月后的美国公开赛之前，他采纳了圣地亚哥州立大学教练的建议，教练告诉他：“我允许你失败。”

“就在本周，”库珀在怀利剧院对观众说，“我也把这句话分享给了阿奇。我说：‘你被允许失败。大胆去闯吧。你知道的，放手去做。去拿下他们。’”

“只要能让你释放潜能，成为最好的自己。”

坦白说，我不确定阿奇会这样告诉他，或者史蒂夫·萨基西安会这样说。但无论本周六发生什么，以及在未来的几周和几年里，我相当确定曼宁家族会团结在一起。这是老先生传给曼宁家族一代又一代的教训之一。

白袜队的赛季需要拯救。幸运的是，他们认识一个能帮上忙的人。

白袜队的球迷们纷纷聚集在教宗利奥十四世的公开活动现场，支持他以及他最喜爱的球队。 ALESSANDRA TARANTINO / AP

（接B7页教宗报道）

在美联分区系列赛的前四场比赛中，他们与克利夫兰守护者队打成平手。两队将于周六晚上在克利夫兰进行决定性的Game 5，白袜队力求晋级自2005年赢得世界大赛以来的首场美联冠军系列赛。

本月初，在从罗马飞往巴黎的教宗专机上，利奥拒绝确认或否认球队的进步是否源于神圣干预。他调皮地笑了笑，说：“无可奉告。”但随后他还是发表了评论：“伟大的事情总是在芝加哥发生，”他说。

接近教宗的人员报告称，体育运动完美地契合了他的信仰体系。

“作为一个在奥古斯丁根基上成长的人，他非常看重社区，我认为这就是体育运动的作用，”罗伯特·哈根神父说道，哈根在成为见习修士期间曾由普雷沃斯特指导。“我认为这就是芝加哥在白袜队身上所经历的——它将人们凝聚在一起。”

但他们还报告称，他其实就是单纯热爱白袜队。利奥是一个典型的芝加哥体育迷：他曾在教宗座车里大喊“熊队”（Da Bears），他至少用两种语言吐槽过小熊队，而且特蕾莎·德尔格尼奥修女在一次采访中提到，朋友们注意到他有时会穿着一件熊队的T恤参加视频会议。

“这让他显得更人性化，”芝加哥总主教布莱斯·库皮奇枢机说。“我认为人们确实觉得这很讨人喜欢。”

教宗在罗马的传记作者埃莉斯·安·艾伦在采访中表示，年轻时的鲍比学会了如何应对家庭生活——他的母亲米尔德里德是小熊队的死忠粉，而他的父亲路易斯则为圣路易斯红雀队喝彩。

“他说你必须接纳他人并保持开放的心态，否则，你就没得吃晚餐，”艾伦说。

库皮奇试图在两者之间保持平衡，拒绝在白袜队和小熊队之间做出选择。“住在芝加哥，我必须成为一名芝加哥球迷，”他说。“这样比较安全。”他承认这在某种程度上是在逃避问题。那么，利奥因为选边站队而获得赞赏吗？

库皮奇笑了。他说绝不可能：“他不用住在（芝加哥）这里！”

尽管如此，对于年轻的鲍比来说，永远是白袜队。他在伊利诺伊州的道尔顿长大，那里距离科米斯基球场向南15英里，当时路易斯·阿帕里西奥在南区大放异彩。在密歇根州索加塔克附近的圣奥古斯丁神学院高中，以及后来的维拉诺瓦大学的暑假期间，他会和朋友们坐在廉价席位观看白袜队的比赛。他通常担任指定驾驶员。

当普雷沃斯特在20世纪90年代在秘鲁担任传教士时，他当时的室友约翰·莱顿神父回忆道，他们的兔耳电视无法收看美国体育节目，因此普雷沃斯特成了当地足球队利马联盟俱乐部（Club Alianza Lima）的狂热粉丝。

“那是人民的球队，”莱顿说，并将其与被认为是精英球队的大学体育俱乐部（Club Universitario de Deportes）进行对比。这些神父在客厅里看球，莱顿回忆道，普雷沃斯特“完全沉浸其中”，会从沙发上跳起来大喊庆祝进球。

后来，当普雷沃斯特担任奥古斯丁会总会长时，据NPR的斯科特·德特罗报道，他参加了一项练习，要求绘制反映自己身份的符号。他画了一面美国国旗、芝加哥的西尔斯塔、奥古斯丁会标志、一棵圣诞树……以及白袜队的标志。

他每年会和埃德·施密特一起观看几场比赛，施密特是他两人曾在芝加哥一所天主教学校工作时的朋友。当白袜队进入2005年世界大赛时，施密特立即给普雷沃斯特打了电话。在利奥当选教宗后，新闻机构挖掘出了他们一起观看Game 1, 的照片，这让教宗咯咯笑了起来——但原因并不完全是你所想的那样。

“你知道的，”他告诉人们，“我也看了第二场比赛。”

他没有承诺会观看潜在的 2026 年世界系列赛，但他正在尽自己的一份力帮助白袜队进入决赛：在季后赛前夕，球队老板杰里·赖因斯多夫（Jerry Reinsdorf）在查收邮件时，注意到一个贴有梵蒂冈城邮戳的大信封。

“我希望白袜队能继续促进人们之间的友谊与团结纽带，从而为能够和平共处与工作的可能性提供充满希望的见证，”利奥写道。“带着这些情怀，我欣然祈求全能之主为您和您的亲人赐予丰厚的祝福。”

“想象一下，一个来自布鲁克林的犹太孩子收到教皇的信，”赖因斯多夫告诉记者。“我要改宗了。”

“顺便说一句，”白袜队的营销主管、终身天主教徒布鲁克斯·博耶（Brooks Boyer）说，“梵蒂冈拥有你能想象到的最酷的信头。”

博耶开玩笑说，如果白袜队赢得了世界系列赛，也许他们可以用一次梵蒂冈之旅来超越传统的白宫访问。如果真的成行，或许利奥会带他们参观教皇档案馆，那里存放着他收到的许多礼物，包括那份关怀包裹中的许多物品。

但麦卡锡说，并非所有礼物都放在那里。其中一些礼物被直接放进了教皇的私人公寓，鲍比随时都可以看到它们。

布恩·詹纳（Boone Jenner，左起第二位）在对阵游骑兵队的比赛中得分，复苏的首都队在赛季初的大都会区比赛中取得了 3-0 的战绩。

在亚历克西斯·拉弗雷尼埃凭借强力进攻得分的情况下，游骑兵队取得了领先。

但在第二节，首都队增加了压力，利尔耶格伦在第二节开始仅六分多钟时在后卫线得分，将比分扳平。这是利尔耶格伦身披首都队球衣后的首个进球。他于 3 月从圣何塞鲨鱼队被交易而来，在马特·罗伊缺阵的情况下，他现在承担着更重要的角色。

“我觉得状态不错，”利尔耶格伦说。“我只是尽量保持自己的比赛风格，努力在后方成为一名稳定的后卫，并在可能的时候像进球那样进行跟进，但你知道，防守第一。”

几分钟后，游骑兵队遭受沉重打击，守门员伊戈尔·舍斯特金在腿部似乎撞到门柱后，不得不由他人搀扶离开冰场。舍斯特金在本赛季早些时候成为了游骑兵队历史上首位得分的守门员，他是纽约队强势开局的关键部分。

随着替补守门员迪兰·加兰登登场，守门员教练斯科特·默里将侦察报告通过无线电传达给教练组，随后由教练传达给球员。球员们反应迅速，在对方一次冰球出界（icing）尝试失败后，于第二节后期取得了领先。布恩·詹纳利用区域中部的散球机会，将球射入球门，打入了他在该球队的首个进球。

詹纳是首都队休赛期引进的四名球员之一，他在 7 月签署了一份为期四年、\2300万美元 的合同。他表示，融入首都队非常容易，很大程度上是因为这支球队的人格特质。

“这是一个非常棒的集体，”詹纳说。“对我以及其他新队员来说，来到这里很容易感受到被欢迎。我认为我们都希望尽快找到自己的角色，而且我认为我们已经做到了。”

首都队在第三节全程保持领先，封锁了游骑兵队的反击机会，尤其是在纽约队撤下守门员后的最后两分钟。汤姆·威尔逊在比赛结束前一秒打入一个空门球，这是他的赛季第二个进球。

“这是一场艰苦的比赛，”完成了 21 次扑救的守门员洛根·汤普森说。“他们今晚表现得很强势。他们一直打得很好，所以我认为我们应对得不错，尤其是当他们早早取得进球时。我觉得我们坚持了下来，执行了比赛计划，今晚收获了好的结果。”

注：马特·罗伊因下半身受伤缺席了第二场比赛，目前仍处于日复一日的观察状态，但他已在周五上午进行了滑冰训练，这是自周六输给坦帕湾闪电队受伤以来的首次训练。

NHL 缩短训练营并未减少赛季初的混乱开局

后卫马修·谢弗（左）与岛民队讨论了如何利用 NHL 赛季初期的混乱表现来获取优势。

NHL 报道，见 B7 版

偶尔会出现一边倒的惨败。

“我认为过去 100 年一直如此，所以我并不期待今年会有所不同，”犹他猛犸象队教练安德烈·图里尼说。

数据分析

在前 65 场比赛中共出现了 405 个进球——其中油人队后卫埃文·布查德以 6 个进球领先。纽约游骑兵队的守门员伊戈尔·舍斯特金甚至通过射门击中空门获得了一个进球。

这意味着场均进球数为 6.24, 比一年前前 60 场比赛的 6.23 略有上升。截至周四，强力进攻（power plays）的成功率为 20.8%，而去年同期为 19.7%，其中哥伦布蓝夹克队、温尼伯喷气机队和猛犸象队以各 40% 的成功率领先。

“也许练习特种作战（special teams）的时间减少了，”犹他队的迪伦·根瑟说道，他以 6 个强力进攻得分领跑联盟。“我们在训练营中对此非常重视，因为我们进行了大量的特种作战训练，所以现在看到一部分成效是很不错的。”

目前的平均扑救率为 891. 上赛季守门员的综合扑救率为 896，这是 NHL 自 1994, 以来的最低水平，而且对于这些戴面具的冰球运动员来说，情况并没有变得更容易。

失误次数也同样之多，每场比赛超过 32 次，且经常出现多打少（odd-man rushes）的情况。

“球队们能够得分，因为球员的技术太出色了，”新泽西魔鬼队后卫布伦登·迪伦表示。“球队的技术如此之高，所以在防守端，只要有一个球杆位置不对，或者一个人站位失误，对方球队就会让你付出代价。”

变化之处

魔鬼队教练谢尔顿·基夫表示，每年秋天都会讨论如何最大限度地利用训练营，这导致在常规赛初期会有大量的教学工作。

“我们是把所有东西都铺开然后引入，但这样你可能什么都学不好？”基夫说。“还是每次只推出几项内容，尝试真正掌握它们，然后再在此基础上扩展？在缩短的训练营中，你必须更加如此。你必须优先考虑几个重点领域，然后随着进程不断扩展。”

在夏季滑冰已成常态的今天，球员的体能不再是问题。至于季前赛场次的减少是否导致了伤病增加，可能还需要几周时间才能确定。

不过，分差巨大的比赛中，落后方翻盘的情况在减少。已有 28 场比赛的分差在三个或三个以上进球，这比平时略多。

“每个人在很早的时候就进入了状态，”岛民队队长博·霍瓦特表示。“偶尔会有几场比赛显得有些混乱。但我认为显然比赛水平会提升，随着赛季的进行，表现会变得更加干练。”

队友凯尔·帕尔米耶表示，岛民队讨论了如何利用联盟中出现的一些混乱局面，希望在秋季保持更好的纪律性能带来回报。迪伦明白，教练们可能希望再多一两周时间来解决一些问题，但并没有多少人渴望回到过去的方式。

“训练营缩短很不错，”根瑟说。“我不会对此抱怨。”

那么这倒是件好事，因为这就是 NHL 的新常态。作为其中的一部分，每个人似乎都承认这就是赛季初秋季冰球的特点——距离春季的季后赛争夺以及斯坦利杯追逐中那种封锁、紧逼的高强度竞争还很遥远。

“我认为每个人都有很多需要清理和改进的地方，”图里尼说。“在目前这个阶段，我不认为有任何一支球队在任何方面是完美无缺的。”

WNBA 季后赛

亚特兰大横扫对手晋级决赛

梦幻队 85， 自由队 83

作者：道格·费恩伯格（DOUG FEINBERG） 美联社

纽约 —— 安杰尔·里斯（Angel Reese）砍下 22 分，莱恩·霍华德（Rhyne Howard）贡献 21 分，亚特兰大梦幻队在周五晚上以 85-83 击败纽约自由队，自 2013 年以来首次晋级 WNBA 总决赛。

作为 4 号种子的梦幻队完成了对自由队的三场横扫，且在今年的季后赛中保持不败。亚特兰大将在 10 月 17 日（周六）WNBA 总决赛开始后，与拉斯维加斯王牌队和金州女武神队系列赛的胜者交手。

在这一赛季之前，梦幻队自 2018 年以来就没能进入半决赛。现在，该队将尝试通过再赢得四场胜利来夺得队史首个冠军。

在一次失误后，亚特兰大在比赛还剩 17.7 秒时以 83-81 领先，给了纽约最后一次机会。但布里安娜·斯图尔特（Breanna Stewart）在还剩 9 秒时的一次受干扰上篮未能命中。德旺娜·邦纳（DeWanna Bonner）在还剩 6.2 秒时命中两记罚球，锁定胜局。

里斯曾获得联盟年度最佳防守球员，她在休赛期通过交易从芝加哥天空队来到亚特兰大，事实证明她是梦幻队晋级冠军赛的关键原因。

由于亚特兰大再次缺少首席得分手艾莉莎·格雷（Allisha Gray）——她因在第一场比赛中手指受伤而缺阵，里斯承担了部分得分压力。格雷缺席了第二场比赛，并在周五晚上的比赛前进行了热身，但在开球前约一小时被判定无法出战。她穿着霍华德的球衣在替补席上为队友们加油。

霍华德在第一节就为梦幻队打开局面，砍下 11 分。里斯在该节得到 10 分，其中包括两记三分球。

第二节比赛变得火药味十足。在伊索贝尔·博拉塞（Isobel Borlase）连续两次得分后，萨布丽娜·约内斯库（Sabrina Ionescu）试图为她掩护，被判进攻犯规。随后她与里斯开始激烈争吵，直到被裁判分开。几分钟后，琼斯（Jones）封盖了里斯的投篮，两人在垃圾话交锋时胸口相撞。裁判介入并向两人各判一次技术犯规。

纽约在半场结束前一度将比分追至 40-39，随后里斯在第二节最后时刻连续得分，为亚特兰大取得 44-39 的领先。

梦幻队在第三节开局打出 7-0，取得 51-39 的领先。纽约随后以 16-4 的进攻波回应，其中包括在这一波爆发中率先拿到 10 分，并凭借琼斯的一次补篮取得了自 2-0 以来首次领先。第三节结束后，自由队以 68-66 领先。

亚特兰大在第四节初段落后 4 分，随后连续得分拿下 8 分，在还剩 4:55 时取得 75-71 的领先，期间他们让纽约在超过 6 分钟的时间里没有投进一个篮筐。两队随后陷入拉锯战，直到比赛还剩一分钟时，亚特兰大以 83-79 领先。

琼奎尔·琼斯（Jonquel Jones）命中一次上篮将分差缩小到 2 分，但这还不够。琼斯和斯图尔特最终各得 26 分。

这场失利结束了纽约令人沮丧的一个赛季。该队保留了大部分两年前夺得队史首冠的核心阵容，但本赛季在稳定性方面表现挣扎，季后赛排名第 8。他们在第一轮击败了 1 号种子明尼苏达山林队，但在面对梦幻队时陷入苦战。

指挥官队主帅奎因正式宣布：丹尼尔斯回归

来自新闻服务机构

华盛顿指挥官队主教练丹·奎因周五表示，因左肘脱臼缺席了最后两场比赛的四分卫杰登·丹尼尔斯，将在周日对阵客队纽约巨人的比赛中首发。

奎因还宣布，外接手斯特丰·迪格斯因腿筋受伤无法出战；而另一名外接手特里·麦克劳林在周五从腿筋伤势中恢复并回归训练，表现良好，其出战状态待定。

25岁的丹尼尔斯在第二周输给主场达拉斯牛仔队的比赛中，于上半场最后一次进攻时伤到了非投球肘。上周他随指挥官队（1胜3负）前往伦敦参加对阵印第安纳波利斯小马队的比赛（最终以30-13落败），但并未登场。

老将马库斯·马里奥塔在对阵小马队的比赛中首发，但遭遇了膝盖受伤。新秀阿森·卡利亚克马尼斯接替了他，传球码数为186码，一个达阵和一个抄截。

丹尼尔斯一直佩戴护具进行训练，在对阵巨人队（3胜1负）的比赛中他将继续佩戴。

奎因还表示，因脑震荡缺席两场比赛的首发右护卫萨姆·科斯米，以及跑卫拉沙德·怀特（肩伤）都将参加对阵纽约的比赛。

• 乌鸦队：巴尔的摩队宣布，四分卫拉马尔·杰克逊和边缘冲手特雷·亨德里克森因伤将缺席在亚特兰大猎鹰队的主场比赛。

在过去五年为巴尔的摩出战的11场首发中战绩为5胜6负的泰勒·亨特利，将在周日晚间对阵亚特兰大的比赛中接替杰克逊。

杰克逊在周日对阵田纳西泰坦队的比赛上半场伤到脚踝，本周未参加训练。主教练杰西·明特表示，目前尚不清楚杰克逊在第六周对阵克利夫兰布朗队比赛中的状态。

亨德里克森在加盟巴尔的摩的首个赛季中已四次入选职业碗，他本周未参加训练，将因手指受伤连续第二场缺席。迈克·格林将再次接替他首发。

• 熊队：四分卫卡莱布·威廉姆斯以有限形式回归训练，在芝加哥对阵格林贝包装工队的比赛中出战成疑。

威廉姆斯在9月20日对阵明尼苏达维京人的比赛中右腿筋受伤，此后缺席了两场比赛。熊队主教练本·约翰逊周一曾暗示威廉姆斯本周无法出战，但那是该四分卫回归训练之前的情况。

在其他伤病消息方面，熊队宣布跑卫凯尔·莫南盖（拇指 / 脚趾）和线卫基肖恩·埃利奥特（股四头肌）将缺席周日的比赛。后卫凯勒·戈登（小腿）、线卫诺亚·塞维尔（跟腱）、防守截锋谢马尔·特纳（膝盖）以及威廉姆斯出战成疑。

• 鹰队：费城队在伦敦对阵杰克逊维尔美洲豹队的比赛中，跑卫赛昆·巴克利和外接手德冯塔·史密斯将因腿筋受伤缺席。

巴克利在上周输给洛杉矶公羊队的比赛早些时候伤到了右腿筋，全周未参加训练。史密斯同样未参加训练，将连续第二场缺席。

鹰队将四分卫杰伦·赫茨列入伤病名单（小腿问题），尽管他全程参加了训练。费城队随后解雇了老将安迪·道尔顿，这意味着坦纳·麦基和新秀科尔·佩顿将担任赫茨的替补。

• 喷气机队：纽约队宣布跑卫布里斯·霍尔、外接手阿多奈·米切尔和左护卫迪伦·帕汉将缺席对阵克利夫兰布朗队的比赛。

主教练亚伦·格伦表示，他很满意球员们伤后恢复的“整体趋势”，但喷气机队在试图打破三连败时，将缺少三名进攻首发。

霍尔因前一周发生的股四头肌受伤，缺席了上周输给熊队的比赛。帕汉也将因膝盖受伤连续第二场缺席。米切尔在训练中伤到手指，将连续第三场缺席。

• 维京人队：明尼苏达队将其两名顶尖外接手，贾斯汀

杰斐逊和乔丹·艾迪森的状态存疑，而左截锋克里斯蒂安·达里索已被排除在对阵新奥尔良圣徒队的比赛之外。

杰斐逊在9月27日扭伤脚踝并缺席上周对阵迈阿密海豚队的比赛后，进行了有限程度的训练。艾迪森由于在上周比赛中遭受轻微腿后腱拉伤，同样仅参与了有限程度的训练。

明尼苏达维京人队还将首发右截锋布莱恩·奥尼尔列为状态存疑，其膝盖伤势导致他本周在训练中的参与度受限。达里索在迈阿密比赛期间进入脑震荡协议，本周未参加训练，但主教练凯文·奥康奈尔表示他正在好转，有望在下周休赛期后回归。

•圣徒队：新奥尔良圣徒队在连续第二场对阵明尼苏达的比赛中，将缺少首发线卫凯登·埃利斯（小腿）和替补边缘冲手安弗尼·詹宁斯（膝盖）。

跑卫阿尔文·卡马拉（背部）和安全卫朱利安·布莱克蒙（肩膀）在参加有限程度的训练后，被列为状态存疑。

• 突袭者队：主教练克林特·库比亚克表示，跑卫阿什顿·詹蒂因脚踝和脚部受伤，在拉斯维加斯对阵新英格兰爱国者的比赛中状态存疑；而外接手杰伦·内勒（脑震荡）和替补进攻线锋特雷·祖恩三世（膝盖）将不会参赛。

右卫杰克逊·鲍尔斯-约翰逊（腹股沟）已准备好回归赛场，但库比亚克并未保证他能从卡莱布·罗杰斯手中夺回首发位置。

• 羊队：亚伦·唐纳德在经过一周的休息和治疗后，背部感觉好多了。在缺席1场比赛后，他计划在周一晚上代表洛杉矶对阵布法罗比尔队。

这位10次入选职业碗的防守截锋表示，在他结束$2 \frac{1}{2}$ 年退休生活回归后的首次伤病挫折似乎并不严重。

• 电击队：洛杉矶电击队在截锋拉肖恩·斯莱特接受右脚踝手术一天后，将其列入伤病预备名单。

迈克·迪特卡 / 1939-2026

名宿近端锋兼冠军教练，一位典型的芝加哥人

“这不仅仅是一支球队。这是一群有个性、有风骨的人，他们为一个疯子效力，而这个疯子允许他们疯狂，并从中获得乐趣，且对此从未感到抱歉，”迈克·迪特卡（Mike Ditka，居中）在谈到他执教那支勇猛且充满个性的芝加哥熊队时的时光。 PHIL SANDLIN / AP

迈克·迪特卡（89）在20世纪60年代帮助近端锋这一位置发生了演变，使其不再仅仅承担掩护角色。

（接B7页 迪特卡报道）

一位传奇人物的离世。”

迪特卡被尊称为“教练（Da Coach）”，是1985年熊队的领路人。那支球队是联盟历史上最具统治力的球队之一，或许也是最古怪的超级碗冠军球队。迪特卡被载入大学足球名人堂和职业足球名人堂。熊队在2013年的一场仪式上表示，他的“89号”球衣将是球队最后一件退役的球衣。

“球员。教练。传奇，”熊队在社交媒体的悼文中写道。“迈克·迪特卡体现了芝加哥的精神，我们将深切地怀念他。”

迪特卡是首位在职业足球名人堂中，且曾以球员、助理教练和主教练三种身份赢得超级碗的人。2021年入选的汤姆·弗洛雷斯（Tom Flores）是唯一另一个完成此成就的人。

NFL总裁罗杰·古德尔（Roger Goodell）表示，迪特卡在职业生涯的漫长岁月中“概括了足球的精髓”。

“他在所做的一切事情中都注入了强度、真实感和鲜明的个性，”古德尔在声明中说。“作为一名名人堂球员、带领他深爱的标志性熊队赢得超级碗的教练，以及一名播报员，迈克成为了这项运动的大使，并激励了数代球迷。通过他在‘格里德铁伟大人物援助基金（Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund）’的工作，迈克成为了照顾那些帮助建立我们这项运动的人的捍卫者。我们向戴安娜和迪特卡家族表达最深切的哀悼。”

成为“铁麦克”

迪特卡出生于宾夕法尼亚州的卡内基，父亲是一名焊工，将家族姓氏从 Dyczko 改为了 Ditka。他在附近的阿利奎帕长大——那里后来还出了两位同样入选职业橄榄球名人堂的球员泰·劳（Ty Law）和达雷尔·雷维斯（Darrelle Revis）——那里靠近点缀在州西部的煤矿和钢铁制造厂。他曾是一名身材魁梧、才华横溢的三项全能运动员，并在匹兹堡大学成为全美最佳球员，其强悍的风格使他的第一个绰号“铁麦克”（Iron Mike）显得十分贴切。

“当我们的球员看到麦克·迪特卡的名字时，我希望他们能理解他是如何竞争的，”匹兹堡大学教练帕特·纳杜齐（Pat Narduzzi）在一份声明中表示。“他倾尽所有，并期望身边的队友也能如此。这就是匹兹堡精神。他向我们证明，坚强的人总能找到度过难关的方法，并教会我们要为球衣前后的名字而战。”

1961年的选秀中，迪特卡被性格刚毅的芝加哥球队老板乔治·哈拉斯（George Halas）在第五顺位选中。随后，他获得了年度最佳新秀荣誉，多次入选职业碗（Pro Bowl），并赢得了1963年的 NFL 冠军赛。他与巴尔的摩马队（Baltimore Colts）的约翰·麦基（John Mackey）永远地改变了近端锋（tight end）的位置和进攻战术。他像一根撞桩一样擅长封堵，但同样有可能接住短传并像弹珠一样穿透整个后防线，或者在一次深球达阵传球中跑赢唯一的安全卫。

1966, 他离开芝加哥，短暂地为费城老鹰队和达拉斯牛仔队效力。

演变为“大教练”

1973年，迪特卡转任教练，担任受人尊敬的汤姆·兰德里（Tom Landry）的助理，并在牛仔队工作了八年，期间包括在1977赛季赢得了超级碗。随后，他在1982年以教练身份回到芝加哥，受到了英雄般的欢迎。

迪特卡在熊队的任期持续了10 tumultuous years，期间包括连续五次获得 NFC 中部赛区冠军、赢得超级碗、一次酒驾（DUI）定罪、一次心脏病发作，以及与防守协调员巴迪·瑞安（Buddy Ryan）之间长期的不和，最后，他得到了一个新的绰号——“大教练”（Da Coach）。

在名人堂线卫麦克·辛格莱特里（Mike Singletary）看来，未来的种子在迪特卡与球队的第一次会面时就已种下。他阐述了自己的愿景，称芝加哥将在三年内进入超级碗——而房间里的许多球员届时将不再在队中。

“当我第一次听到他走进房间时的讲话，对我来说，

迪特卡教练有机会成为有史以来最伟大的教练，因为他拥有那股激情，”辛格莱特里在2019年6月的熊队百年庆典上说道。“我不知道乔治·哈拉斯是如何执教的。但我可以想象，迪特卡教练在第一天所散发出的激情、强度和热情，为他所说的内容奠定了基调：‘三年后，我们将进入超级碗。’那是1982. 在'85, 我们确实做到了，正是因为那个愿景。”

领导一群个性鲜明的人

他与瑞安在公众面前的争执，反映了迪特卡在试图控制一支充满特立独行个性的球队时，在幕后所进行的斗争。

“这不仅仅是一支球队，”迪特卡曾说。“这是一群有性格的怪才，他们为一个疯子效力，这个疯子允许他们发疯，并从中获得乐趣，且对此从未道歉。我不想成为今天在场边走来走去的那种穿西装的人。

“我没有那种欲望。我就是我，他们就是他们，该死的，这很有趣。”

直到有二十多名球员录制了《超级碗洗牌》（The Super Bowl Shuffle）——一段在1986年1月冠军赛前三个月发布的、大胆的说唱风格视频——橄榄球世界的其他人才开始怀疑迪特卡是否失去了掌控力。

但他的球员们从未如此认为。

“我们叫他‘西比尔’（Sybil），就像电影里的那个女孩一样，”四分卫吉姆·麦克马洪（Jim McMahon）曾解释道。“你知道的，就是那个拥有多种人格的人。麦克这一分钟还很冷静，下一分钟就可能扔掉写字夹。人们不理解这一点，但我们理解。”

在超级碗中，熊队以 46-10 大胜新英格兰爱国者队，但迪特卡经常说，他后悔让麦克马洪和防守截锋威廉·“冰箱”·佩里去冲触球，而不是让沃尔特·佩顿去跑——后者是芝加哥队忠诚且长期受委屈的跑卫。

不久之后，赖安离开球队前往费城担任主教练。尽管在接下来的五年大部分时间里，熊队依然具有竞争力，但一个 5-11 的赛季导致迪特卡在 1992 年离职。

在新奥尔良的任期

在离开五年后，他回到新奥尔良圣徒队担任教练，但未能振兴这支球队。他在该队的任期最令人难忘的可能是 1999 年 NFL 选秀前的一次交易，当时他用一套包含 8 个选秀权的方案——包括圣徒队当年拥有的所有选秀权以及 2000 年前三个选秀权中的两个——

——与华盛顿队交换，将排名从总第 12 位提升至第 5 位，以便新奥尔良队能够选中跑卫里基·威廉姆斯（Ricky Williams）。

在经历了惨淡的 1999 赛季并以 3-13 的战绩结束（这是迪特卡作为球员或教练最糟糕的记录）后，他彻底离开了教练席。

“我们自豪地纪念他在新奥尔良担任主教练的篇章，”圣徒队在一份声明中表示。“虽然他在球场上领导我们球队的时间较短，但他的存在给我们的组织留下了不可磨灭的印记。迈克在圣徒队的任期中展现了与他整个职业生涯一致的大胆真实和不懈动力。”

足球生涯之后

到那时，迪特卡的脸孔和风貌已如此家喻户晓，以至于开启人生第二幕变得顺理成章。他开始建立自己的餐厅帝国，并以真实身份出现在从《干杯》（Cheers）到《太阳来自第三颗岩石》（Third Rock from the Sun）的电视情景喜剧中，以及像《洛杉矶法律》（L.A. Law）这样的节目中。

他还以 NFL 分析师和比赛日节目主持人的身份与这项运动保持密切联系——在离开熊队后首先在 NBC 工作，在离开圣徒队后则在 CBS 和 ESPN 工作。

“迈克·迪特卡是一个传奇人物，一位标志性的足球巨星，他走进房间的那一刻就能吸引所有人的注意力，”ESPN 副总裁兼执行制片人塞斯·马克曼（Seth Markman）在一份声明中说道。“他在节目中无畏且坦率，带来了定义其足球生涯的同样真实感和信念感。”

“对于我们在 ESPN 与他共事的人来说，我们得以体验到迈克的另一面：一位善良、慷慨且真正关心同事的人，无论是否认识你，他都以热情和尊重对待每一个人。”

迪特卡的高知名度也使他成为一名有效的倡导者，为前球员争取更好的医疗和退休福利。

他的名字在伊利诺伊州的政治圈中也流传多年。尽管他从未竞选公职，但迪特卡将自己描述为一名坚定的保守主义者，并多次被提及为可能的共和党候选人，包括一场与时任州参议员奥巴马竞选美国参议院的国会选举。

“迈克·迪特卡，”ESPN NFL 主持人克里斯·伯曼（Chris Berman）在一份声明中说，“是一件国家瑰宝。”

阿灵顿县起诉以阻止特朗普建造其凯旋门

作者：利亚姆·鲍曼 (LIAM BOWMAN)、 特奥·阿尔姆斯 (TEO ARMUS) 以及 丹·戴蒙德 (DAN DIAMOND)

阿灵顿县的当地选举机构周四提起诉讼，以阻止总统唐纳德·特朗普计划建造的凯旋门，理由是政府官员在推动该建筑开工时绕过了一项关键的审查程序。

这份提交至弗吉尼亚州联邦法院的诉讼称，特朗普政府未能按照联邦法律的要求，充分评估该项目潜在的环——

委员会要求进一步审查

诉状强调环境影响

——境影响。

特朗普政府计划在波托马克河的一个岛屿上建造这座拱门，该岛在官方定义上属于华盛顿特区，但距离阿灵顿仅几百米。阿灵顿拥有约 240,000 人口，且是五角大楼及其他几家联邦机构的所在地。

诉讼指控国家公园管理局对拱门项目的审查仅是“草率的”，违反了《国家环境政策法》。该法要求联邦机构仔细审查重大项目的影响并考虑合理的替代方案。

公园管理局“不当地忽视或淡化了该机构承认的损害。详见 B14 页关于拱门的报道”

政策旨在帮助里根国家机场与海军陆战队一号活动协调

作者：利亚姆·斯科特 (LIAM SCOTT)

据两名知情人士透露，在 8 月发生一起涉及总统唐纳德·特朗普的“海军陆战队一号”直升机与里根国家机场之间通信问题的安全事件后，一项新协议已建立，以确保空中交通管制员在总统直升机即将起飞前获得通知。

根据旧政策，“海军陆战队一号”应在起飞前向国家机场的空中交通管制员发出三分钟预警，

此次变更源于涉及总统直升机的安全事件

以便管制员清理空域，为直升机提供一条通往马里兰州安德鲁斯联合基地的畅通航线。

据要求匿名的知情人士（因未获授权发表评论）称，在新政策下，“海军陆战队一号”仍需发出三分钟预警。但现在，另一个独立实体——国家首都地区协调中心，也应在总统直升机起飞前通知机场的空中交通管制塔台。该协调中心负责监督华盛顿特区地区的空域安全。

他们表示，这一安排旨在为未来“海军陆战队一号”与国家机场（也称为 DCA）之间可能出现的通信问题提供备份保障。

摩尔、特朗普与一场 37 亿美元 billion 的争端

州长与总统就潜艇交易发生争执

作者：蒂纳谢·钦加兰德（Tinashe Chingarande），《巴尔的摩太阳报》

对于民主党州长韦斯·摩尔（Wes Moore）而言，他与共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普就周二在斯帕罗斯角（Sparrows Point）举行的 Anduril 活动而产生的公开争端，其政治回报可能有限。政治分析人士表示，关于谁该获得功劳——以及谁被允许发言——的争论，不太可能引起许多马里兰州选民的共鸣。

康奈尔大学指控引发向白宫进军的游行

该示威活动是全国数十场支持受害者的活动之一

周四晚上，数百名示威者聚集在国家广场，以回应康奈尔大学的强奸指控。

在案件中的“简·多伊”（Jane Doe）上个月对该大学及七名被指控强奸她的学生提起诉讼后，当天的聚集活动成为了全国数十场集会、守夜和罢课活动之一。这些活动是在 #StopSexualViolence: From the Frat House to the White House（停止性暴力：从兄弟会到白宫）的旗号下组织的。华盛顿特区的示威活动以向总统官邸进军而告终。

在华盛顿纪念碑渐暗的阴影下，包括来自乔治·华盛顿大学的 100 多名学生在内的参与者举着标语，上面的文字包括“立即废除希腊生活（兄弟会 / 姐妹会）”以及“他们的未来怎么办？我的未来怎么办？我当时才 14 岁”。

包括被定罪的性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的幸存者丹妮·本斯基（Dani Bensky）在内的主讲嘉宾分享了遭受虐待的个人故事，并讨论了他们认为的大学以及政府每个部门中系统性的问责缺失。

“这不仅仅是一个校园的问题，”本斯基说，“这也不仅仅是一个政党的问题。我们正处于一个清算这个国家权力滥用的时刻。我们不能继续将机构声誉与机构诚信混为一谈。”

总会纪念治理 250 周年

“弗吉尼亚州的人民并不是要求我们在所有事情上都达成一致，”州长阿比盖尔·斯潘伯格（Abagail Spanberger）在恳请立法者寻找共同点时说道。 MIKE KROPF / RICHMOND TIMES-DISPATCH / GETTY IMAGES

作者：MICHAEL MARTZ 里士满时报-调度报（Richmond Times-Dispatch）

与 250 年前作为一个独立联邦首次集会时相比，弗吉尼亚州总会（Virginia General Assembly）现在的面貌截然不同。

但周三，在威廉斯堡殖民地议会大厦旧的议员院（House of Burgesses Chamber）内，州长阿比盖尔·斯潘伯格（Abigail Spanberger，民主党）提醒那些挤在室内的立法者，如今治理面临的挑战和职责与当年并无太大差异。

斯潘伯格在今年首次立法会议期间，与总会成员的关系有时较为紧张。她表示，第一届总会的成员“很快就发现，自我治理的工作有点混乱”。

“他们争吵，他们辩论，他们互相施压，他们产生分歧——有时非常激烈，”她说。“但随后他们共同向前迈进。”

此次仪式性会议共有 84 名代表和 30 名参议员出席，前州长 L. 道格拉斯·怀尔德（L. Douglas Wilder，民主党）和吉姆·吉尔摩（Jim Gilmore，共和党）以及总检察长杰伊·琼斯（Jay Jones，民主党）也出席了会议。斯潘伯格利用此次机会赞扬了弗吉尼亚在美国革命以及作为一个独立国家中所扮演的角色。但州长同时也敦促立法者继承这一传统，超越政党、政策和个人性格的分歧，以解决弗吉尼亚州人民每天面临的问题。

“弗吉尼亚州的人民并不是要求我们在所有事情上都达成一致，”她说。“曾经在这个房间里服务的人们肯定也没有达成一致。”

“但那些选举我们并把我们送到里士满的弗吉尼亚州人民要求我们，不要让分歧阻碍为他们带来的进步或问题的解决，”她说。“他们没有时间去记仇。他们不会追踪每周发生了什么，或者谁赢了上一次争论。”

“他们只是在等待看我们是否在履行他们派我们到这里来执行的工作。”

斯潘伯格赞扬了立法者们共同完成的工作，列举了他们以跨党派方式通过的旨在改善负担得起的医疗和住房、降低能源价格、保护学生以及吸引商业投资的举措。

“这就是人们在辩论和争吵并找到前进道路时会发生的事情，”她说。“这正是这项工作被设计出来的运作方式。”

斯潘伯格被两党总会领导人围绕，她有时在政策上与他们存在分歧，包括在州预算中如何对数据中心征税、如何以及何时允许地方政府雇员进行集体谈判，以及在全球气候变化的背景下，如何在保护自然世界的同时最好地满足弗吉尼亚州的能源需求。

“向前迈进并不总是容易或快速的，”她说。“但我们已经且将永远找到办法，而这绝非偶然。必须有人做出选择。”

自我治理的挑战可能没有太大改变，但总会及其服务的州与 1776 年 10 月 7 日众议院和参议院成员首次集会时已大不相同，那次立法会议一直持续到 12 月 21 日。当时的立法者寻求解决从道路糟糕到叛国罪适当处罚等所有问题。（处罚结果仍为死刑，但不再采用当时英国王室那种残酷的方法。）

此前，议员院（House of Burgesses）由男性——且仅由男性——组成，他们根据王室的意愿任职。独立后演变为参议院的机构是枢密院（Privy Council），由当时的皇家州长邓莫尔勋爵（Lord Dunmore）选任。在第五届弗吉尼亚会议通过宪法且大陆会议签署《独立宣言》几天后，邓莫尔勋爵逃离了威廉斯堡。

帕特里克·亨利成为了弗吉尼亚州的第一任州长，当时这个前殖民地（现为联邦州）正准备通过战争来确保其独立。许多英国忠诚派逃离了这座曾经的殖民地首府，但也有人选择留下，并谴责革命者为叛徒。

殖民地威廉斯堡基金会（Colonial Williamsburg Foundation）总裁兼首席执行官卡莉·费奥里纳（Carly Fiorina）周三表示，革命给被奴役的黑人带来了尤为艰难的选择，特别是在邓莫尔勋爵发布法令，承诺如果他们为英国而战就给予他们自由之后。

“随着威廉斯堡转型投入战争……当地 52% 的黑人居民在自由的承诺、‘不言而喻的真理’的嘹亮号召以及被奴役的现实之间苦苦挣扎，”费奥里纳说道。这位前商业高管曾在 2016 年竞选共和党总统提名，但未能成功。

她说，有些人选择追随英国人，另一些人则追随美国人，在大陆军中服役，且大多处于隔离部队中，唯有完全融合的罗德岛民兵队除外。

费奥里纳特别提到了两名被奴役的男子——詹姆斯·阿米斯特德·拉法叶（James Armistead Lafayette），一名为美国军队担任双面间谍的奴隶；以及戈万·潘弗莱特（Gowan Pamphlet）牧师，一名被奴役的酒馆工人，他后来创立了后来的威廉斯堡历史第一浸信会教堂，这是美国最古老的非裔美国人教堂之一。

这座威廉斯堡教堂最初始于附近一个种植园里的“灌木棚”，将于周五庆祝其成立 250 周年。其牧师雷金纳德·L·戴维斯（Reginald L. Davis）博士在众议院周三召开会议并与参议院举行联席会议前主持了祈祷。

“弗吉尼亚州议会再次聚集在一起，处理民众的事务，”戴维斯祈祷道，“因为在您看来，无论肤色是红是黄，是黑是白，人们都是珍贵的，我们祈求您赐予他们智慧、知识和同情心，以便在您看来做正确的事。”

他说：“愿这次议会成为像现在这样的时代所需要的领导者。”

费奥里纳还指出了美洲原住民部落在革命中所面临的挑战。一些人——例如帕蒙基部落（Pamunkey tribe）的罗伯特·默什（Robert Mursh）——会与美国人并肩作战，正如他们在未来的战争中所做的那样。“然而，这提醒了我们国家初创时存在的许多鲜明矛盾，开始对部落国家进行根除行动的同样也是弗吉尼亚人，”她承认道。

费奥里纳表示，在战争的恐惧和不确定性之中，第一届州议会在一部新宪法下召开，该宪法创建了三个独立的政府分支，以防止行政权力过大。

“这是美国历史上一个具有里程碑意义的时刻，”她说，“这再次提醒人们，美国确实是在弗吉尼亚州诞生的。”

面对聚集的立法者们，费奥里纳说：“欢迎回家。”

阿灵顿委员会主张计划中的 250 英尺高拱门需要经过审查

LUIS VELARDE / FOR THE WASHINGTON POST 由五人组成的阿灵顿县委员会（Arlington County Board）提交的诉状称，该县的诉讼指控公园管理局“不当地驳回”了该机构承认该项目将造成的损害，“并且忽视了该项目的其他重大影响”。

（接 B13 页拱门报道）

这份由完全由民主党人组成的五人阿灵顿县委员会提交的 35 页诉状称，该项目将造成影响；并且完全忽视了该项目的其他重大影响。

起诉书称：“尽管该机构声称尚未就建造拱门做出最终决定，并自称正处于常规的决策过程中，但这一仓促的过程似乎是一个借口，旨在为根据总统反复下达的指令建造拱门提供正当理由。”

该诉讼请求法院下达初步禁令，除非完成环境影响报告，否则禁止进行任何拆除或建设工作。

特朗普表示，这座 250 英尺高的拱门——这将成为世界上最高的凯旋门——应当被建造出来以纪念国家的 250 周年庆典。政府还主张，该拱门不需要国会批准，因为一个世纪前的立法者曾授权在该地点附近开展一个较为相似的项目。

阿灵顿县委员会主席马特·德·费兰蒂（Matt de Ferranti）在宣布诉讼的一份声明中表示，政府在推动完成该项目的过程中仓促推进流程并驳回了当地的担忧。

“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，”德·费兰蒂说。“够了。我们将尽一切努力追究本届政府的责任，并保护和服务于我们社区的最佳利益。”

左翼法律倡导组织“民主前行”（Democracy Forward）加入了该县共同提起诉讼。

该组织主席斯凯·佩里曼（Skye Perryman）在声明中表示：“总统不能仅仅因为想根据自己的心血来快速行动，就绕过法律审查要求，而国家公园管理局（NPS）未能对拱门项目进行充分审查，显然违反了法律。”

起诉书将内政部、国家公园管理局以及这两个机构的负责人——内政部长道格·伯格姆（Doug Burgum）和国家公园管理局代理局长杰西卡·鲍伦（Jessica Bowron）列为被告。

白宫和国家公园管理局最初未回应关于该诉讼的置评请求。在本报道发布后，内政部在一份声明中表示，其“继续遵守所有法律法规”。

“遵守所有法律法规。”白宫发言人戴维斯·英格尔（Davis Ingle）在周五的一份声明中表示，政府一直“严谨地遵守所有程序和法律要求”，并且“确信这起毫无根据且旨在拖延时间的诉讼将被驳回”。

声明补充道：“纪念圆环（Memorial Circle）的凯旋门将成为不仅在华盛顿特区，而且在全世界范围内最标志性的地标之一。”

今年早些时候，三名退伍军人和一名历史保护主义者发起了一项法律挑战，寻求阻止该拱门的建设，称这将损害参观附近阿灵顿国家公墓的体验。

这座高耸的拱门将建在纪念圆环上，这是一个位于华盛顿边界内、靠近阿灵顿国家公墓并由国家公园管理局管理的交通环岛。特朗普上个月表示，他将把计划地点改为一个“军事综合体”，配备无人机、狙击手和弹药，但政府官员最近表示，他们将继续执行该地点的现有计划，包括向游客开放。

历史保护主义者、退伍军人团体及其他人士已呼吁政府缩小该纪念碑的计划规模或将其建在其他地方，并警告称，这座高耸的建筑将遮蔽墓地，中断墓地与林肯纪念堂之间原定的庄严肃穆的走廊，并造成其他干扰。

该县的诉讼称，如果建成，这座拱门将加剧关键干道的交通压力，给里根国家机场的起降航班带来安全风险，并“对阿灵顿的许多历史建筑产生重大且不利的影响，包括阿灵顿国家公墓”。诉讼还认为，特朗普将拱门转变为军事综合体的计划将“剧烈加剧这些公共安全危害和事故风险”。

代表该军事墓地和里根国家机场所在选区的众议员唐·拜尔（Don Beyer，弗吉尼亚州民主党人）也表示，这座巨大的拱门可能会给机场带来风险。

倡导团体上个月批评特朗普政府官员采取行动终止一项联邦要求的审查（该审查旨在评估拱门将如何损害当地历史遗迹），称这一决定几乎没有先例，且忽视了公众的担忧。

特朗普政府官员希望最快在11月5日获得拱门的最终批准——届时该项目预计将提交给一个联邦审查委员会——并立即开始施工。在此之前，政府上个月拒绝了当地官员和倡导团体关于修改建筑设计或位置的建议，随后引发了此次诉讼。政府官员还终止了另一项旨在确定计划中的拱门将如何损害附近历史遗迹的审查程序。

近年来，阿灵顿县因抵制保守派的努力而频繁成为总统攻击的目标。

该县的首席检察官、民主党人帕里萨·德格哈尼-塔夫蒂（Parisa Dehghani-Tafti）多次遭到政府官员和众议院共和党人的抨击，原因是她决定不对一名女性提起刑事指控，该女性曾在白宫副办公厅主任斯蒂芬·米勒（Stephen Miller）的阿灵顿住宅外进行抗议，并涉嫌分发印有米勒夫妇家庭住址的传单。

上个月，由共和党领导的众议院司法委员会发布了一份报告，攻击该县的“避难政策”，指称县政府官员拒绝与联邦移民执法部门合作，“使外国籍罪犯免于承担责任”。

摩尔与特朗普就 37 亿美元 billion 就业协议产生分歧

B13页就业报道

位于 Tradepoint Atlantic 的海事制造设施预计将创造 3,100 多个就业岗位。摩尔表示他被禁止在活动中发言；白宫则称他是以嘉宾身份受邀出席。

这场争端还引发了一个更广泛的政治问题：当一名民主党州长与一名共和党总统就马里兰州的一项重大经济发展项目公开发生冲突时，谁将从中获益？

此次争端也是特朗普与摩尔之间最新的公开摩擦。由于外界对摩尔未来的全国政治前景有所猜测，两人的互动一直备受关注。这并非特朗普与摩尔之间第一次公开摩擦。在 2025 年于巴尔的摩举行的陆军-海军橄榄球赛上，特朗普随后声称摩尔曾称赞他是摩尔有生以来“最伟大的总统”。摩尔否认发表过此番言论，且两人的互动视频显示，他们当时讨论的是弗朗西斯·斯科特·基桥（Francis Scott Key Bridge）的重建问题。

周三接受采访的政治分析人士表示，尽管州长周二在 CNN 上表达了沮丧之情，但他们预计这次争端不会对更广泛的全国政治讨论产生太大影响。

“事实是这件事发生在选举年，人们现在关注的是[中期选举]，而不是总统在 Sparrows Point 发表的演讲，”马里兰州圣玛丽学院（St. Mary's College of Maryland）的政治学教授托德·埃伯利（Todd Eberly）说道。他表示，马里兰州选民最可能关注的是新就业岗位的前景。

约翰霍普金斯大学名誉教授马修·克伦森（Matthew Crenson）表示，由于距离选举不到一个月，马里兰州选民更有可能关注周二摩尔与共和党挑战者丹·考克斯（Dan Cox）之间的州长辩论。克伦森说：“还有很多更严肃的问题，其中一些在与丹·考克斯的辩论中被提及。”

巴尔的摩郡社区学院（Community College of Baltimore County）的政治学教授约翰·德迪（John Dedie）则给出了不同的评估，他认为这次争端作为 2028 年潜在的政治操盘，比作为目前马里兰州选民关注的问题更为重要。

“特朗普足够聪明，他不想与政治对手站在同一个舞台上，”德迪说。“特朗普不想让韦斯·摩尔成为下一任总统。”

白宫对摩尔的说法表示异议，称他是以嘉宾身份受邀出席。

周三在被问及导致摩尔缺席的具体细节时，白宫在声明中重申了其立场并批评了这位州长，称“令人遗憾的是，州长现在通过对一项联邦计划大发脾气，将一项旨在通过特朗普总统之手为他的州带回急需就业岗位的数十亿美元公告，变成了关于他个人的表演。”

摩尔的办公室周三回应称：“摩尔州长一直表示，在为马里兰州人民提供服务方面，他愿意与任何人合作；但在为他们挺身而出方面，他绝不向任何人低头。”

此次分歧发生之际，马里兰州和巴尔的摩郡正在考虑为该项目提供高达 4.81亿美元 的公共激励和资金。马里兰州提议的州政府支持包括为劳动力培训中心提供资本资金，而巴尔的摩郡则在考虑一项在 30 年内价值高达 2.1亿美元 的制造业个人财产税抵免。

Anduril 计划在该项目中投资 37 亿美元 billion，这将使大规模造船业重返前伯利恒钢铁（Bethlehem Steel）厂址，并生产弗吉尼亚级攻击潜艇的组件。

计划旨在让 DCA 空管员能更早获得“海军陆战队一号”的预警

白宫将《华盛顿邮报》的置评请求转交给了美国联邦航空管理局（FAA）。一名 FAA 发言人确认，一份关于该政策的谅解备忘录已在最近几周签署。

美国特勤局未回应置评请求。

当特朗普于 8 月 4 日从椭圆形草坪的一个临时起飞点起飞时，国家机场的空中交通管制员并未停止商业航班。FAA 表示，“海军陆战队一号”与一架商业客机之间出现了“瞬间的间隔丢失”，随后两架飞机继续相互远离。

“间隔丢失”是指两架飞机的距离比规定距离更近。国家运输安全委员会（NTSB）在关于该事件的初步报告中表示，根据 FAA 的初步估计，在距离最近时，“海军陆战队一号”与该商业客机的横向距离约为 0.82 英里，纵向距离约为 700 英尺。

初步报告显示，空中交通管制录音揭示，“海军陆战队一号”第一次尝试联系空管塔台时完全没有被接收到，第二次尝试则“断断续续且完全不可读”。

报告称，当时白宫正在进行施工，“海军陆战队一号”正从椭圆形草坪起飞。根据 NTSB 的说法，技术人员随后确定，该临时位置处于一个无法为所需无线电通信提供直接视距的位置。

事件发生后，白宫表示总统从未处于危险之中。

涉嫌杀害 12 岁女孩的巴尔的摩男子此前被提前释放出狱

法官将嫌疑人的刑期缩短了 3 年

作者：玛吉·特罗瓦托（MAGGIE TROVATO），《巴尔的摩太阳报》

泰里·雷诺兹（Tyree Reynolds）于9月25日获释出狱。此前，一名巴尔的摩法官将其因袭击和武器指控而被判处 8 年的刑期缩减了 3 年。警方表示，8 天后，在接受监督缓刑期间，雷诺兹在一次青少年足球比赛中开火，导致 12 岁的克洛伊·伊什韦（Khloe Ishway）死亡。

周二，雷诺兹被指控在伊什韦死亡案中犯有一级和二级谋杀罪，以及在枪击事件中涉嫌企图一级和二级谋杀、一级和二级袭击、鲁莽危害以及枪支犯罪。他目前被羁押，不得保释。

巴尔的摩警方表示，枪击事件发生在周六晚上莱昂·戴公园（Leon Day Park），起因是一场关于停车位的争执，当时“魅力之城海盗队”（Charm City Buccaneers）正在举行一场主场回归赛。伊什韦和其他三人被击中。这名 12 岁的女孩在被送往约翰·霍普金斯医院后死亡。

在周三上午的一次虚拟出庭中，雷诺兹放弃了申请保释审查的权利。代表他的公设辩护人表示，辩方将把进一步的陈述留到稍后时间。

起诉文件显示，监控录像拍到雷诺兹与两名男子发生口角，随后他伸手进背包，取出了一把短管步枪并向他们开火。

警方表示，雷诺兹向足球场方向开火，伊什韦和其他受害者当时就在那里。文件显示，其中一名男子随后还击，击中了雷诺兹的左脚踝。

警方表示，他们正在寻找本案中的第二名枪手。

起诉文件显示，调查人员称，在伊什韦的尸检过程中从其体内提取的子弹，与在雷诺兹被目击开火地点回收的弹壳相匹配。

警方认为有两名男子将雷诺兹送往格雷斯医疗中心（Grace Medical Center）。起诉文件称，医院摄像头显示他被送入时穿着与在

现场。

调查人员表示，他们在雷诺兹出院后对其进行了询问。警方称，他承认当时在枪击现场，但否认开过枪。他还告诉调查人员，他当时穿着不同的衣服。

在出庭期间，雷诺兹坐在轮椅上，脚上打着石膏。

2021年7月，雷诺兹被指控企图谋杀、袭击、鲁莽危害他人以及武器犯罪。警方称，他在一家炸鸡店外的武装冲突中向一名人员面部开枪。

警方表示，雷诺兹与另一人在餐厅入口处互相掏出手枪。当时年仅18岁的雷诺兹对一级袭击罪和一项武器罪名认罪。

2022年7月，巴尔的摩市巡回法院法官辛西娅·琼斯判处他有期徒刑15年，其中除8年外全部缓刑，并处以三年的监督缓刑。

法院记录显示，雷诺兹在2025年3月申请了量刑修改听证会，称他在服刑期间进行了“自我提升”。

巴尔的摩市州检察官伊万·贝茨表示，他的办公室受限于他在接任前就已达成的2021年案件协议。

“最初的认罪协议是在2021年，在我执政之前签署的，”贝茨说。“作为该具有约束力的认罪协议的一部分，州政府同意考虑未来的量刑修改请求。2025年，被告请求举行量刑修改听证会，州政府根据原认罪协议的条款同意了该听证会。”

在2025年8月的听证会上，琼斯将量刑修改为15年，其中除5年外全部缓刑，并处以三年的监督缓刑。

马里兰州公共安全与惩教服务部的发言人基思·马图奇表示，雷诺兹在获释前“一天不少地”服完了修改后的全部实际刑期，并表示该部门“对12岁的克洛伊·伊什韦的悲剧性死亡以及无辜旁观者受伤感到心碎”。

雷诺兹还在2021年12月对一项单独的武器指控认罪。法院记录显示，他被判处三年监禁，其中一年四个月零六天缓刑。

周三尚不清楚该判决是与袭击案的判决同时执行还是连续执行。

伊什韦的家人形容她很善良，并说她热爱舞蹈。

周六，伊什韦与母亲在公园停留，是为了给照顾她1岁弟弟的祖父送一瓶配方奶。当她们返回车内时，枪声响起。

周一，500多人聚集在一起，从巴尔的摩穆斯林社区文化中心步行至里昂·戴公园进行和平行走，以纪念伊什韦并呼吁停止暴力。

根据马里兰州法院记录，雷诺兹定于11月4日举行初步听证会。

玛格丽特·汉密尔顿开发了软件，为我们所知的数字世界铺平了道路。 1969年美联社照片

玛格丽特·汉密尔顿，90岁

原创“软件工程师”凭借其才智助力宇航员登月

作者：朱诺·卡梅尔（JUNO CARMEL）

1969年，就在尼尔·阿姆斯特朗（Neil Armstrong）和巴兹·奥尔德林（Buzz Aldrin）成为首批踏上月球的人类前几分钟，阿波罗11号的一台车载计算机上闪现了警告。

“程序警报，”阿姆斯特朗通过无线电向休斯顿的任务控制中心报告，“是1202。这是什么？”

对于地球上的数千名工程师、科学家和技术人员，以及机上的两名宇航员来说，那个代码除了代表压力和麻烦之外毫无意义。玛格丽特·汉密尔顿（Margaret Hamilton）领导了编写该警报代码的团队，这是在月球模块“鹰号”降落月球时可能触发的29个警报之一。

“这些是绝不应该发生的警报，”汉密尔顿女士在2019年告诉《华尔街日报》。“我当时处于震惊状态。怎么会在降落前的一刻发生这种情况？我想：我的天，这不是真的。”

在那些紧张的秒数里，美国国家航空航天局（NASA）的任务控制中心在考虑是否应该中止降落。然而，该警报正表明当时32岁的汉密尔顿女士完美地完成了她的工作：错误信息表明计算机过载，正在丢弃低优先级任务以专注于飞行安全。基于对汉密尔顿女士软件的信任，任务控制中心下令继续执行。最终，“鹰号”成功着陆——而当时剩余的燃料估计仅够飞行30秒。

“我们的宇航员时间不多，但庆幸的是，他们有玛格丽特·汉密尔顿，”巴拉克·奥巴马总统在2016年授予她总统自由勋章时说道，以表彰她领导开发阿波罗车载飞行软件的团队。

他补充道，汉密尔顿女士“代表了那些帮助人类进入太空的无名女性一代。……她的榜样体现了存在于每个小女孩和小男孩心中的美国探索精神，他们知道，在某种程度上，仰望苍穹就是审视内心，并探索究竟什么是可能的。”

汉密尔顿女士在参与阿波罗计划期间被认为创造了“软件工程师”这一术语，她于9月30日在马萨诸塞州剑桥市的一家医院去世，享年90岁。她的女儿劳伦·汉密尔顿（Lauren Hamilton）表示，死因是多器官衰竭。

作为一名开拓性的计算机科学家，汉密尔顿女士开发了早期的计算机软件，为我们今天所熟知的数字世界铺平了道路。

“她不是一个仅仅在细节上修修补补的人，”麻省理工学院（MIT）博物馆的科学与技术策展人德博拉·G·道格拉斯（Deborah G. Douglas）在2016年告诉《波士顿环球报》。“玛格丽特·汉密尔顿处于那些真正痴迷于确保计算机程序正确运行的人群前沿——确保它们不包含错误，确保它们完全执行预定操作，并且在危机发生时不会崩溃。”

汉密尔顿女士于1959年开始学习计算机，在气象学家爱德华·洛伦兹（Edward Lorenz）手下工作，后者后来为混沌理论奠定了基础。仅仅几年后，她就在为当时制造的最大计算机之一编写代码，那是一台重达250吨的庞然大物，作为冷战时期名为“半自动地面环境”（SAGE）的防御系统的核心。

通过这份工作，她在1964年成为了麻省理工学院阿波罗项目聘用的第一位程序员，也是整个阿波罗项目中的第一位女性程序员。一年之内，她便在麻省理工学院仪器实验室领导自己的团队。

“因为软件在当时是一个谜，一个黑匣子，高层管理人员给了我们完全的自由和信任，”她后来告诉MIT News。“我们必须找到一条路，而我们做到了。”

汉密尔顿女士是驱动阿波罗制导计算机软件的主开发人员，该计算机重70磅，但内存仅有72 KB，仅为当今智能手机的一小部分。她的软件在1969年至1972年间的六次登月航行成功中发挥了关键作用，随后还为美国首个空间站“天空实验室”（Skylab）的开发做出了贡献。

“她的工作使得一个极其复杂的航天器能够在一个真正前所未有且不可预测的环境中可靠地运行，”美国国家航空航天局（NASA）首席历史学家布莱恩·C·奥多姆（Brian C. Odom）在评价她对阿波罗计划的贡献时说道。

在从事阿波罗计算机工作期间，汉密尔顿女士开始称自己为“软件工程师”，这是一个新术语，旨在传达她工作的复杂性和价值。

“在很长一段时间里，这一直是个笑话，”她在2019年告诉《卫报》，指的是她的同事们轻视软件重要性的方式。“然后有一天在一次会议上，一位最受尊敬的硬件专家向所有人解释说，他同意我的看法。构建软件的过程也应该被视为一门工程学科。”

由于经常在深夜和周末工作，汉密尔顿女士经常带着年幼的女儿去实验室。有一天，劳伦在“扮演宇航员”时按下了一个按钮，导致飞行模拟器崩溃。汉密尔顿女士意识到宇航员也可能会犯同样的错误，于是她为软件编写了一个程序，当计算机过载时会发出警报。

“宇航员的生命处于危险之中，”她告诉《卫报》。“我们的软件需要极高的可靠性，并且能够在任务期间的任何时刻检测到错误并从中恢复。”

尽管她当时是 NASA 相对较小的女性工作群体的一员，但汉密尔顿女士表示，直到很多年后看到电视剧《广告狂人》（Mad Men）中的办公室动态，她才意识到自己办公室性别失衡的严重程度。

“当我刚加入阿波罗计划时，没有其他女性在编写软件。然后几年之内出现了几个——确实有几个在为我工作——但并不多，”她告诉《卫报》。“男性的数量总是多得多。”

“从未有人尝试过”

玛格丽特·伊莱恩·希菲尔德（Margaret Elaine Heafield）是家中四个孩子中的长女，于1936年8月17日出生在印第安纳州的保利，并在密歇根州的上半岛长大。她的母亲是一名高中教师，父亲则是一位大学哲学和英语教授。

汉密尔顿女士在密歇根大学学习数学，随后转学到印第安纳州的厄尔汉学院（Earlham College），并于1958年获得学士学位。不久后，她与詹姆斯·考克斯·汉密尔顿（James Cox Hamilton）结婚并搬到马萨诸塞州。当时她的丈夫在哈佛大学法学院就读，而汉密尔顿女士则在麻省理工学院（MIT）找了一份工作以维持生计。

虽然她原计划在丈夫工作赚钱后攻读数学博士学位，但在丈夫给她看了一则来自 MIT 仪器实验室的报纸广告后，她改变了主意。该实验室当时正在寻找软件开发人员，以帮助“将人类送上月球”。

“我被这个纯粹的想法以及这件事此前从未被尝试过的事实所吸引，”她回忆道。

在那个时代，计算机代码被写在带有打孔的厚纸卡片上，软件工程师在将这些卡片发送到雷神公司（Raytheon）工厂之前会对其进行检查。在那里，一支主要由女性组成的员工队伍将铜线和磁芯编织成长长的“绳索”，用于存储二进制代码。当代表“1”时，电线穿过微小的磁芯；当代表“0”时，电线则绕过磁芯。汉密尔顿女士后来被称为“绳索之母”，她在磁芯绳索制作之前审核软件代码，确保其中没有错误。

1972年，她离开 MIT 创办了自己的软件和技术公司，开创了一种名为“通用系统语言”（Universal Systems Language）的软件架构开发，旨在帮助工程师设计更可靠、无误差的系统。

汉密尔顿女士的第一段婚姻以离婚告终，她与同为阿波罗计划工程师的丹·利克利（Dan Lickly）的第二段婚姻也是如此。20世纪70年代后期，她遇到了爵士音乐家罗恩·哈克勒（Ron Hackler），他对数学充满热情，并成为了她在生活和事业上的伴侣。他于2025年去世。

除了她的女儿，幸存的亲属还包括两个兄弟和一个姐妹、两个孙子以及四个曾孙。

2017年，乐高（Lego）发布了一套人偶套装，向 NASA 的四位先驱女性致敬：该机构首位天文学主管南希·格雷斯·罗曼（Nancy Grace Roman）；首位进入太空的美国女性莎莉·赖德（Sally Ride）；首位进入太空的非裔美国女性梅·杰米森（Mae Jemison）；以及经常鼓励年轻科学家勇于探索未知的汉密尔顿女士。

“不要让恐惧成为阻碍，不要害怕说‘我不知道’或‘我不明白’——没有一个问题是愚蠢的，”她在2019年建议道。“而且，不要总是听信那些所谓的专家！”

讣告 RINEHART

BENJAMIN HUGH FLOWE JR.（70岁） 本杰明·休·“本”·弗洛（Benjamin Hugh "Ben" Flowe Jr.），70岁，来自马里兰州波托马克，于2026年10月8日在家中去世，在他被诊断出患有肌萎缩侧索硬化症（ALS）近十二年后。他是一位在全国享有盛誉的出口管制律师，一名忠实的杜克大学粉丝，其家族的家长，也是一位坚定的乐观主义者，拒绝让疾病缩小他的世界。

NANA MERETE RINEHART（84岁） 娜娜·里内哈特（Nana Rinehart）于2026年9月4日去世。 她出生于丹麦哥本哈根。 1955年她在牛津生下了罗伯特·里内哈特（Robert Rinehart），次年结婚后，夫妇二人搬到了华盛顿特区。娜娜教授英语文学25年，随后转入国际学生交流计划工作。退休后，娜娜研究神学并成为一名依纳爵灵修辅导员。娜娜的遗属包括她的丈夫，儿子尼尔斯（Niels）、保罗（Paul）和本（Ben），他们的配偶劳伦（Lauren）、伊隆卡（Ilonka）和纳迪亚（Nadia），以及孙子利亚姆（Liam）、亚伯（Abe）、列夫（Lev）和马丁（Martin）。请访问 https: / nanarinehart.com / 查看更详细的讣告。葬礼服务定于10月12日星期一在圣三一教堂举行。

本于1956年2月8日出生在北卡罗来纳州达勒姆，父母是多萝西（Dorothy）和本杰明·弗洛（Benjamin Flowe）。他童年时期的夏天与父母和兄弟姐妹在北卡罗来纳州的蒙特里特（Montreat）度过，后来他将这一传统延续给了自己的孩子、侄子和侄女。高中时期，他打足球和网球，就读于北卡罗来纳州州长学校，并作为AFS交换生在伦敦度过了一个夏天。他获得了杜克大学的心理学学位，并以年级第三名的成绩毕业于北卡罗来纳大学法学院。

本于1981年在Arent Fox律师事务所开始执业，随后在Bowman Conner和Verner Liipfert工作，最后于1997年加入Berliner Corcoran & Rowe（BCR）。他在那里担任合伙人直到2024年12月退休。在BCR，他将该律所的出口管制和制裁业务从一个人的执业规模发展成为一个在全国和国际上享有盛名的团队。几十年来，他一直担任商务部法规与程序技术咨询委员会的志愿者，并且是监督1996年《出口管理条例》全面修订的政府官员和委员会成员之一。他成为了该条例加密条款的领先权威，并在美国及海外就此发表讲座。同事们在1997年称他为出口管制律师界的标杆。在这一时期，他撰写了关于国际出口管制的著作，并以其南方人的魅力、幽默感以及作为导师的慷慨而为人所知。一位年轻的合伙人称他“基本上就是个泰德·拉索（Ted Lasso）”，一位在耐心和善良方面的教诲与法律教诲同样重要的导师。2026年，他的BCR同事通过国家国际贸易发展委员会设立了“本杰明·H·弗洛二世贸易学者奖”，以支持进入该领域的学生。

本是通过玛格丽特·“佩格”·弗洛（Margaret "Peg" Flowe）的侄子帕特里克（Patrick）和妹妹莎莉（Sally）结识她的，此前他在布拉德利山长老会教堂的坚信礼课程中指导过帕特里克。他们于2005年结婚，为庞大的大家庭举办了无数次生日、节日和庆祝活动。他将继子女丹尼尔（Daniel）和简（Jane）视如己出，支持

威利森

约瑟夫·L·威利森（Joseph L. Willison，69岁） 我们遗憾地通知蒸汽拟合工当地602分会（Steamfitters Local 602）的成员，退休兄弟约瑟夫·L·威利森已经去世。其家人已举行私人悼念仪式。通知

Sidney Bonilla F.S.T.

他像支持自己的孩子安迪（Andy）和萨米（Sammie）那样，支持他们完成学业并走向社会。他在孩子们的足球赛场边为他们加油，供孩子们读完大学，带他爱的人出国旅行，并虔诚地参加每一场能想象到的体育赛事：奇才队和杜克大学的篮球赛，华盛顿联队和华盛顿自由队的足球赛，甚至偶尔还会看一场北卡罗来纳大学（UNC）的比赛（主要是为了支持他的兄弟姐妹）。他是孩子们的骄傲，而与孙女薇奥莱特（Violet）在一起时他最为快乐。他每天都与她聊天，并在去世前几天与家人一起庆祝了她的周岁生日。

本（Ben）在2014.年被诊断出患有肌萎缩侧索硬化症（ALS）。当他得知大多数患者在确诊后只能生存两到五年时，他开始告诉人们医生给了他“两到二十六年”。他最终生存了近十二年。随着病情进展，他不断适应：先是使用助行器，然后穿着睡衣在家工作，最后使用电动轮椅。当他失去声音时，他原本就很长的电子邮件变得更长了，他继续给朋友们发送最喜欢的歌曲和体育剪辑，用大拇指打字的速度比大多数人用双手还快。通过参加ALS步行活动和由其嫂子萨莉·福勒（Sally Fowler）组织的“本之队”（Team Ben）筹款骑行，他为该事业筹集了超过$400,000。在蒙迪（Monday）和艾希莉（Ashley）婚礼的场合，他坐在轮椅中将其装裱起来。每年三月，NCAA锦标赛带来的狂热随之而来。他会与兄弟洛克（Lock）及朋友们打赌（如果杜克队输了，洛克可以吃蟹饼；如果杜克队赢了，洛克必须烹饪科罗拉多野牛排），与亲友一起前往夏洛特观看双赛，或者与他的律所合伙人韦恩（Wayne）偷偷溜出办公室，在L街的一家酒吧看球，希望其他律师不会注意到那些未计费的工作小时。作为一名终身音乐迷，本热爱感恩死党乐队（Grateful Dead）、杜比兄弟（Doobie Brothers）、滚石乐队（Rolling Stones）、斯蒂维·雷·沃恩（Stevie Ray Vaughan）、B.B.金（B.B. King）和邦妮·雷特（Bonnie Raitt）。在杜克大学大四时，当感恩死党乐队于1978,年在卡梅伦室内体育馆演出时，他争取到了第一区的座位，他非常喜欢讲述那个夜晚，因为他成功地同时惹恼了杰里·加西亚（Jerry Garcia）和一个地狱天使（Hell's Angel）成员。几十年来，他一直在追随各种演出，从布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀（Bruce Springsteen）和尼尔·杨（Neil Young）到90,岁的威利·纳尔逊（Willie Nelson），并与几乎所有认识的人交换Spotify播放列表。

他是康科德第一长老教会的成员，后来加入了贝塞斯达的布拉德利山长老教会。他还自豪地支持染色体18登记与研究协会，并在该协会董事会任职多年。

本的遗属包括结婚21年的妻子玛格丽特·“佩格”·弗洛（Margaret "Peg" Flowe）；他的孩子安迪·弗洛（Andy Flowe，妻子艾希莉）和萨米·弗洛（Sammie ）；他的继子女丹尼尔·马奥尼（Daniel Mahoney）和简·马奥尼（Jane Mahoney）；他的孙女薇奥莱特（Violet）；他的岳母珍·安迪（Jeanne Undy）；他的妹妹萨莉·阿贝尔（Sally Aberle，丈夫汤姆）；他的嫂子朱迪·弗洛（Judy ）；佩格的兄弟姐妹大卫·奥尔达赫（David Oldach，妻子托比）、约翰·奥尔达赫（John Oldach，妻子莫琳）、贾兹·安迪（Jazz Undy）、萨莉·福勒（Sally Fowler，丈夫弗兰克）和哈基·奥尔达赫（Huggie Oldach，妻子卡罗尔）；以及许多侄子和侄女。先于他去世的有他的父母多萝西和本杰明·弗洛（Dorothy and Benjamin ）；他的兄弟洛克·弗洛（Lock ）；以及他的侄子本杰明·古尔莱夫（Benjamin Gurlev）。

生命庆典活动将于稍后日期在贝塞斯达的布拉德利山长老教会举行。家属建议以向ALS协会或国家国际贸易发展委员会的“本杰明·H·弗洛二世贸易学者奖”捐款代替送花。

亨利

查尔斯·罗伯特·亨利少将（89岁）

查尔斯·亨利（查克）少将于2026年10月4日在其位于劳德代尔堡的家中，在家人的陪伴下回归主身边。他于1937年10月3日出生于肯塔基州马蹄洞（Horse Cave），就读于田纳西大学，并在那里结识了未来的妻子桑德拉·迪安娜·格林，两人于1957年结婚。他于1959年毕业于中田纳西州立大学，接受了预备役军官训练团（ROTC）的少尉委任，并开始了长达32年的陆军生涯，重点关注军队职能，同时在服役期间利用夜间取得了两个法学学位（JD / LLM）。他曾在德国担任连长；被派往沙特阿拉伯，并在此前的一年里学习阿拉伯语；在越南美国军事援助顾问团（MACV）担任后勤参谋官；在弗吉尼亚州李堡担任营长；并在密歇根州底特律和俄亥俄州克利夫兰的国防后勤局（DLA）担任上校级指挥官。

亨利将军是首批被选为准将的人员，并被任命为由美国国会设立的美国陆军竞争倡导总长（U.S. Army Competition Advocate General）一职。在晋升为少将（1988年）后，他被重新派回国防后勤局担任副局长（采购管理），该职位使其负责在“沙漠风暴”行动期间为所有美军提供所有食品、燃料、服装和医疗用品。

在担任国防后勤局副局长的同时，他被委派创建国防合同管理局，从而承担起几乎所有国防部合同的管理工作，并指挥一支初始规模超过20,000人的员工队伍。

他的奖项包括国防杰出服务勋章、陆军杰出服务勋章（2枚）、国防卓越服务勋章、铜星勋章、功绩勋章、功绩服务勋章（2枚）、陆军表彰勋章以及联合服务表彰勋章（3枚）。

他于1993年1月1日从陆军退役，并将塑造其人格、伦理和正直的指导之功归于桑迪和陆军。桑迪说，他在退休这件事上失败了，因为每当被要求承担一项工作时，他永远无法说不。他开始了在工业界的第二职业生涯，在LFR集团担任首席执行官（CEO）兼总裁，任职时间长达32年。他还因其在国防采购方面的知识而被邀请担任专家证人。随后，他担任危机管理顾问，为陷入困境的公司提供服务。他曾担任多家公共和私人公司的董事会成员。他直到87岁才停止工作，仅是因为公司被出售。

荣誉：中田纳西州立大学名人堂（ROTC – 1992）、美国陆军军需部队名人堂（1998）、国防后勤局名人堂（1999）、美国陆军战争学院杰出校友（2014）、著有《一位将军对领导力与管理的洞察》（Battelle Press 1996）。美国陆军军需部队荣誉上校（2001-2003）、弗吉尼亚州李堡查尔斯·亨利会议中心（2007），以及莎拉·杨发展特许学校与桑德拉·亨利基金会——这是一个旨在通过教育机会和奖学金帮助受伤战士及其直系亲属获得技能以改善就业选择的慈善机构。

他和桑迪在仅约会6个月后结婚，两人结婚68年。他过去常说：“我们当时就是两个孩子，出现并说我们要结婚，而我们双方的家人都认为这是个好主意。成年人的领导力在哪儿呢？”他与桑迪共同抚养了两个孩子，凯瑟琳（1959年出生）和马克（1963年出生）。

9/11-style jet attack planned, UAE says

Co-pilot is said to have aimed at large airport to maximize casualties

BY MATTHEW HAY BROWN

The FlyDubai co-pilot who is accused of attacking his pilot with an ax and attempting to take over their Israel-bound commercial flight last week planned to crash the aircraft into the passenger terminal at Ben-Gurion International Airport, the United Arab Emirates says.

The co-pilot, who has been identified as 29-year-old Omani national Hamam al-Hammami, took inspiration from the al-Qaeda attacks of 9/11, Emirati Attorney General Hamad Saif al-Shamsi said Friday, according to the state-run Emirates News Agency. He had used two previous flights to scout the route and the airport, Shamsi said.

Shamsi's report, which alleges Hammami underwent a decade-long process of radicalization, raised questions about how he managed to elude FlyDubai's screening measures. Investigators found that Hammadi “met the professional and security employment requirements” at the state-owned airline, Shamsi said, “without any indications appearing during those procedures that reveal his extremist tendencies or his intention to carry out a terrorist plot.”

Passengers on board FlyDubai Flight 1073 on Sept. 30 say Hammami struck the pilot with a crash ax, an emergency tool kept in the cockpit, and sent the Boeing 737 Max 8 into a nosedive. Pilot Smit Machchhar suffered life-threatening head injuries but managed to open the cockpit door, allowing passengers to subdue Hammami.

President Donald Trump has escalated the fight against Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, creating a commission to assess the mortgage fraud allegations that his allies have levied against her.

The committee will report to Trump “whether there is ‘cause’ for Governor Cook’s removal,” according to a memorandum dated Oct. 7. It will consider the evidence during a closed-door hearing at the White House scheduled for Nov. 5.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment beyond the text of the memorandum.

Trump last year cited the mortgage allegations as grounds for Cook's removal, the first presidential attempt to remove a sitting Fed governor in the institution's history.

Cook sued in response, and the Supreme Court issued an emergency ruling in June blocking Trump from immediately removing Cook from the Federal Reserve without good cause, while the lawsuit over her attempted dismissal played out in the courts. Congress created the Fed to be independent of the president, so it could make decisions — such as raising interest rates — that may be politically unpopular.

Some of the justices were skeptical of the administration's claims that Cook had committed mortgage fraud during arguments. However, the 5-4 decision written by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. left open the possibility that Cook could still be removed if the president had a valid reason and gave Cook a chance to challenge her firing.

The Federal Reserve Act says a Fed governor can only be removed “for cause,” but the law does not provide a clear road map for how removal should work, Roberts noted.

An opening on the seven-member Fed board would create an opportunity to potentially tip the balance of Republican appointees, replacing a Biden administration governor whose term runs through 2038.

Following the decision, Trump said on social media that he would “take appropriate action immediately” to fire Cook.

Putin to open diesel spigot

Immediate impact likely to be muted, analysts say

BY MICHAEL BIRNBAUM AND EVAN HALPER

Russian President Vladimir Putin has agreed to supply diesel fuel to the global marketplace, President Donald Trump said, a move that could ease prices somewhat but effectively aligns Washington with Moscow and against Ukraine and its bombing of Russian energy infrastructure.

Touting a “highly successful discussion” with Putin, who has been escalating daytime attacks on civilians in Ukrainian cities in recent weeks, Trump wrote on social media that “Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter.”

The announcement of the deal was a measure of Trump's struggle to address energy prices less than a month ahead of the midterm elections, in which energy prices have become a major problem for his party.

The figures involved are a small slice of daily U.S. diesel production and consumption, and the immediate price impact was likely to be muted, analysts said. Russia hasn't been exporting any diesel in a bid to conserve it for its war effort, as lines at fuel stations stretch for blocks in many Russian cities.

Trump hits ICC with sanctions after Nobel goes to former judge

BY SUSANNAH GEORGE

The Trump administration imposed aggressive sanctions on the International Criminal Court Friday, just hours after a former judge on the court was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

While the Trump administration has repeatedly clashed with the ICC, which it deems corrupt and illegitimate, the move marks a significant escalation with the global justice body that investigates war crimes and other crimes against humanity.

The sanctions are intended to cut the court off from the global financial system and also threaten punishment against countries that continue to do business with the court.

The sanctions are “an assault on the rule of law” the court said in a statement, pledging that “no one should be punished for serving the cause of justice. History will judge this moment.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio in a video posted to social media said the move was aimed at ending the court's threats to U.S. sovereignty.

Talarico struggles to clarify positions on transgender rights

BY NATALIE ALLISON

As James Talarico sought the Democratic nomination for Senate in Texas last year, he invoked his long-standing support for LGBTQ+ rights as among the reasons his party's voters should elect him in a heated primary.

The Austin-based state representative had spent years advocating for transgender people and other minorities in Texas, opposing Republican efforts to pass a bathroom bill and ban transgender girls from participating in girls' sports, among other issues.

But since emerging as Democrats' best chance of winning a Senate seat in Texas in nearly 30 years, Talarico has distanced himself from some of his past comments on issues related to transgender rights, including sports participation and access to gender-transition care for minors. He is under pressure in a red-leaning state, where his well-funded but scandal-plagued Republican opponent, Attorney General Ken Paxton, has bombarded voters with ads about those positions. Democrats nationwide increasingly see transgender rights as a topic on which to tread carefully.

In seeking support from LGBTQ+ groups and other allies, Talarico made specific commitments about what he would do in the Senate.

He pledged in writing at least twice during the primary contest to support the Equality Act if elected — a measure championed by LGBTQ+ rights advocates to amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and prohibit discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation and gender identity.

THE POLLWATCHER

A Democratic worry: Are polls underestimating Republicans? Surveys missed their mark in last three presidential elections. The Post's pollster answers questions about bias and how to read the midterm polls.

President Donald Trump greets supporters as he arrives on the stage at the Republican convention last month in Dallas.

BY SCOTT CLEMENT

Polls show Democrats are in a strong position less than one month before Election Day.

JULIO CORTEZ/AP

Democrats lead by about eight percentage points in national support for Congress, above the 3.5-point margin they probably need to win a House majority. Democratic Senate candidates hold at least narrow leads in races for six Republican-held seats, more than the four they need to win control of the chamber.

But is it a mirage? Republicans are hoping that polls are overestimating Democratic support, as they have done in the last three presidential elections.

Republican pollster Patrick Ruffini noted that, on average, from 2018 to 2024, polls at this stage overestimated support for Democratic Senate candidates by 6.2 percentage points in Iowa, Michigan and Ohio, all states that have competitive Senate races this year. Separately, State Navigate pollster Chaz Nuttycombe said rural Republicans didn't respond to their survey in an Iowa legislative district, saying it could be a “Canary in the Cornfields for Iowa polling this year.”

It's impossible to know whether polls will overestimate Democrats or Republicans before any election, but understanding why polls missed in recent years, how pollsters have adapted and what the data shows this year can help set expectations for this fall.

What's the track record for polls in recent elections?

All polls have random error signified by the margin of sampling error, but in an ideal world they should overestimate each party about equally in a given election. In reality, polls have systematically overestimated either Democrats or Republicans by an average of two percentage points across the past 14 federal and gubernatorial election cycles, according to a Silver Bulletin analysis.

The worst cycle was 2020, when polls overestimated Democratic candidates by 4.7 percentage points on average, higher than the three-point miss in 2016 and the 2.9 point error in 2024. Election surveys were relatively accurate in President Donald Trump's first midterms in 2018 and President Joe Biden's midterms in 2022, with systematic error less than one point.

What caused polls to underestimate Trump in recent elections?

The most likely cause of polling errors in these elections is nonresponse bias. When one party's supporters are less likely to participate in polls than the other party's supporters — and the pollster cannot detect the pattern and correct for it — the poll will underestimate support for that candidate.

Trump, who rails against polls as part of a “rigged” establishment, has posed particular challenges for polls because of his unique appeal among voters with lower levels of formal education, civic engagement and social trust. These groups are less likely to participate in surveys. And while pollsters can weight samples by education, that has not always been sufficient.

Pollsters have also theorized that the covid pandemic played

a role in making the 2020 polls particularly inaccurate. Democrats were far more concerned about infections and likely to stay home, possibly making them more available to answer an election poll.

What are polling firms doing to address the threat of partisan nonresponse?

Many pollsters have made changes to combat nonresponse bias in recent years. A growing number of pollsters (including The Washington Post) use voter files to draw survey samples. These are built from official registered voter databases and include reliable indicators of partisanship in most states.

In addition, many pollsters weight samples using demographic attributes, party identification, turnout and vote choice in the most recent presidential election. These changes have been a clear effort to correct for underrepresentation of Trump voters in polls.

How effective are these ad-

justments?

Weighting by past presidential voting and other political variables has been widely credited with reducing polling error from 2020 to 2024, including in a postmortem by the American Association for Public Opinion Research (a report I co-authored). In The Post's state election polls, weighting to past presidential vote reduced bias by 1.6 points on average.

The increasing use of voter-file sampling has also allowed pollsters to better monitor response rates by different groups and to test additional ways to improve accuracy.

Are Democrats responding to polls more than Republicans this year?

Polls don't typically report data on response rates by groups, but a Washington Post-Schar School poll of Michigan voters in September offers a window into how patterns have

changed.

This year, voters identified as Democrats on the voter-file were less likely to be contacted successfully for the poll than Republicans, regardless of whether they were contacted by a text-message or live phone interviewer.

But among voters who were successfully contacted, Democrats were more likely to complete the interview. And compared with a similar poll in 2024, Democratic completion rates are up this year, while they were stable for Republicans.

Democrats' higher completion rates could be a sign that they are more interested in voting this year. While The Post's surveys are weighted to correct for any differences in response rate by partisanship, the polls use past turnout and a survey question asking voters the chances they will vote to produce likely voter estimates.

Takeaways

Pollsters have made a number of changes to combat nonresponse bias that have likely reduced the risk of a big polling error this year, but it's impossible to rule out. Polling could be more or less accurate in different regions, as Republican pollster Ruffini suggests. There's also no guarantee that polls will overestimate Democrats: If turnout among Trump voters plummets this fall, polls that ensure the electorate matches the 2024 vote count could underestimate Democrats.

One strategy when interpreting poll results is to imagine what the outcome would be if Democrats or Republicans were overestimated by three percentage points. If polls overestimated Democrats by that margin they would likely still win the House but lose the Senate. If polls overestimated Republicans by that amount, Democrats might experience a tsunami.

What the polls agree on

Hispanic voters are shifting left in Texas — Two years after exit polls showed Trump won 55 percent of Hispanic voters in Texas, new data shows Hispanic voters could fuel Democratic wins in the House and Senate.

A survey of Texas Hispanic voters by the Cook Political Report and TelevisaUnivision found Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico leading Republican Ken Paxton by 63 percent to 30 percent among Hispanic voters who are likely to vote. Separate polls by the New York Times/Siena College and Fox News found the Democrat leading by about 30 points.

The Cook-TelevisaUnivision poll also found Hispanic voters favoring Democratic House candidates by 14 points across three key congressional districts in South Texas. The Post's Teo Armus and Federica Cocco talked to Hispanic voters from the region who voted for Trump but were frustrated with the economic impact of deportations.

Worth your attention

Young adults are down on life — A Gallup poll of more than 15,000 U.S. adults finds young adults are far more pessimistic about their lives than in 2019, reversing a post-pandemic rebound. The survey classified people as “thriving” if they rated their current lives as at least 7 out of 10 and predicted their lives in five years would be at least 8 out of 10.

Gallup found 44 percent of 18-29 year-olds are “thriving” this year. The share of young adults who are thriving was unchanged from 2025 but down from 51 percent in 2023 and 57 percent in 2019. Since the pandemic, Gallup finds more young adults downbeat on their personal relationships, on feeling active and on feeling satisfied with their standard of living.

America's stormwater systems weren't built for this El Niño

Many drainages across the country are too old and undersized

BY ERIN DOUGLAS

When it rains, canals, bridges, pipes, ditches and culverts are supposed to funnel water beneath streets. But the majority of the country's stormwater infrastructure was not built for heavier bouts of rain brought by a warming climate — and now experts are warning the ongoing super El Niño will further expose those risks across the nation.

"The El Niño seems to be simply exacerbating the trend that we are already seeing," said Chad Berginnis, executive director of the Association of State Floodplain Managers. "We need to make sure that we are designing [infrastructure] for these more extreme, heavy rainfall events."

Current stormwater systems aren't ready, and recent storms have exposed those shortcomings.

One analysis by Headwaters Economics, a nonprofit research group, found that of the nation's more than 6 million culverts, about two thirds are in states with outdated design standards. (Culverts allow streams to pass beneath roads.) Another analysis by the American Society of Civil Engineers gave stormwater infrastructure in the United States a "D," in 2025, noting that the need to replace aging infrastructure often outstrips local capacity to do so.

In the American Southwest, El Niño has already resulted in a wetter monsoon season that's tested drainage infrastructure.

In the Navajo Nation, flash floods in mid-September killed three people and prompted evacuations. The remnants of Hurricane Polo brought even more rain last week. More than 500 areas of dirt roads were damaged in the last month, said Sheila Clyde, operations lead for Navajo

Nation's emergency operations center and a program supervisor for the Division of Transportation.

Floodwaters blew out culverts, some of which have been there for decades, Clyde said. There were nine pipe washouts on just one 15-mile stretch of road in Mexican Springs, New Mexico, she said.

"When it came, it came hard," Clyde said of the rainfall, adding that it may take two months to fully repair the roads.

Stormwater infrastructure design standards are, in some cases, decades out of date, engineering experts said. The standards typically rely on historic rainfall totals without accounting for recent observations nor future projections in a warming climate.

"The majority of the culverts we have in place today are not built for the floods that we're going to see," said Bridget Mitchell, a civil engineer at Headwater Economics who leads the group's community flood resiliency program.

Replacing culverts to better accommodate heavier rain totals can cost thousands to millions of dollars each, depending on the size and complexity of the project, said Mitchell. She argues the costs are worth it: Those culverts will require less maintenance, last decades longer and are cheaper than disaster response.

Still, many municipalities across the nation don't have the money to replace aging and inadequate stormwater infrastructure, even in large cities.

In San Diego, funding needs for stormwater infrastructure exceed \$5 billion, said Todd Snyder, the city's stormwater department director. Most of the city's drainage canals, underground pipes and pump stations were placed more than half a century ago when there were fewer buildings and a lot less concrete than today.

“San Diego has grown a lot since then,” said Snyder, adding that the city has been racing to clear debris out of waterways to better prepare the city for runoff. California is bracing for potentially brutal impacts, with El Niño expected to bring an exceptionally wet winter.

“You combine that with the intense storms we’re seeing from climate change ... [and] we’ve got a lot of infrastructure that we would consider undersized,” Snyder added.

Only about 17 percent of above-ground stormwater channels there are capable of withstanding flooding that has a 1 percent chance of occurring each year — also known as a 100-year flood, he said.

In southern New Mexico, flash flooding last week breached levees, and put a dam in jeopardy of failing, prompting evacuations. In the drought-stricken West, water that hurts rather than helps feels particularly devastating.

“We really need that moisture,” said Gerhard Schoener, an assistant professor at the University of Mexico and a hydrologist who studies runoff. “The problem is when it arrives all at once.”

ICE shooting stirs fresh clash between Trump officials and New York City

Authorities say Dominican man used his car to ram vehicles in N.Y.

BY TIM CRAIG, DAVID NAKAMURA, SILVIA FOSTER-FRAU AND TED HESSON

NEW YORK — People were walking on the sidewalks, children had gotten out of school and the streets were filled with cars when two men in jeans and sweatshirts rushed toward a gray Honda with their guns drawn.

Moments later, gunfire pierced the air.

Pedestrians dove onto the sidewalk or ran, police video released Friday shows. A girl with a backpack covered her mouth with her hand. Moments later, an officer is seen carrying a terrified 5-year-old boy. A 28-year-old man was bleeding from the neck and rushed to a hospital.

The shooting of a Dominican man by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Thursday afternoon shocked residents in the Marble Hill neighborhood of New York City and sparked a fresh clash between city leaders and Trump administration officials over ICE's tactics and presence in the city.

In a Friday morning news conference, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin cast the man, Oscar Belgal, as an aggressor with a long criminal record who used his car to ram two government vehicles and then accelerate toward officers. He said the ICE officer who fired did not know Belgal's son was in the vehicle.

Mullin cast blamed on New York officials, whom he accused of “endangering the safety of the public” by failing to cooperate with immigration enforcement efforts to take custody of undocumented immigrants who are arrested for state and local offenses.

New York officials, meanwhile, denounced ICE officers for wielding their weapons against an unarmed man driving with a young child on a residential street. New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) said the agency is “sowing chaos and terror” across the country, undermining public safety and should be abolished. Mamdani and Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) want ICE to pause enforcement operations in the state.

Mullin said there would be no pause in enforcement operations and that Belgal would face criminal prosecution.

“He knew he had a child in the car and chose to accelerate at a high-rate of speed,” Mullin said at a news conference in Washington, flanked by senior ICE officials. “He’s a criminal, a thug, a gangbanger. The outrage should be with him endangering a 5-year-old.”

A federal judge temporarily barred ICE on Friday from deporting Belgal, who was treated at a hospital and then transported to New Jersey. He was later returned to New York and being held at a detention center in Brooklyn, his lawyers said.

“Regardless of whether or not someone has a criminal history, it is not lawful and it is not okay to shoot a father in an afternoon with his son in the back seat,” said Harold Solis, Belgal’s lawyer. “That is not how we resolve legal disputes in this country. We resolve them in buildings like these.”

New York City has policies that limit local law enforcement from sharing certain information with federal officers or honoring detainer requests unless immigrants have been convicted of violent crimes. The state also has policies to prevent federal authorities from accessing motor vehicle and drivers' license records of immigrants without a court order or search warrant.

Mullin said ICE had issued 14,766 detainers in New York since President Donald Trump took office last year to take custody of people in New York jails. But, he said, the state has not cooperated. "Silence is what we got from the state of New York," he said.

Mullin said he spoke with Mamdani on Thursday night, and the mayor asked him to release Belgal, prompting Trump to tell Mamdani that the administration would transfer custody to local police if they are willing to pursue criminal charges against Belgal.

"The mayor said, 'We are not detaining him,' " Mullin said.

Mamdani did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Carmen Pedrosa, 39, said she was walking down Marble Hill Avenue when she saw Belgal talking on the phone, telling someone he was being followed. He was walking fast, talking loudly, with his son by his side. As men wearing plain clothes approached on foot, he jumped in his car with the boy, she said. Pedrosa said Belgal tried to flee and made a turn but did not appear to ram any ICE vehicles.

That's when the officers began shooting, Pedrosa said in an interview.

“They shot the car in the front and then in the back. And then the kid was in the car — thank God the kid didn’t get shot or nothing like that,” she said, adding that Belgal’s SUV crashed, and the ICE officers removed him in a rough manner.

“He was not actually fighting,” she said. “They just dragged him, threw him on the floor. And he’s like, ‘I’m bleeding.’”

Video clips from bystanders show Belgal on the pavement with his hands cuffed and ICE officers nearby, including one in a yellow construction-worker-style vest holding a rifle. Some of the bystanders could be heard shouting angrily at the ICE officers.

Other video captured by

NYPD cameras and released Fri-day showed the moments before and after the incident, but did not show the officer as he fired his gun toward Belgal's vehicle.

Belgal was stopped in front of a fire hydrant when an ICE officer in plain clothes approached the driver's side window with his gun drawn, according to residential police cameras. Another officer approached on the same side near his headlight. At that point, Belgal's car moved forward and went out of the frame. Later, police found seven shell casings.

Belgal's car was found perpendicular to the road, with damage to the windshield and a shattered back window. A gray, four-door sedan owned by ICE had damage to its front left panel, and its lower panel was fully disconnected, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a news conference Thursday.

On Friday, a federal judge held a hearing regarding a petition by Belgal's lawyers demanding his release from ICE custody and alleging that the Trump administration violated his rights by arresting him without a warrant. (His attorneys referred to him as Oscar Bergal and acknowledged that his last name has been spelled several ways. In New York City court filings, his name is spelled Belgal.)

During the hearing, Assistant U.S. Attorney Brandon Waterman was asked for the legal justification for Belgal's arrest.

“I unfortunately don’t have a firm answer on this at this time,” Waterman responded. “It is a question that ICE is getting back to me on that. There is criminal history there.”

At a news conference afterward, Belgal's lawyers said he told them he still had a bullet in his body.

ICE and the Department of Homeland Security have faced widespread public outrage over aggressive enforcement tactics. Federal officers fatally shot two U.S. citizens during a surge in operations in Minneapolis in January. Since July, two immigrants have been shot and killed by ICE officers who fired into their vehicles.

Trump officials have consistently stated that their goal is to keep Americans safe by targeting enforcement against “the worst of the worst” — undocumented immigrants who have committed violent crimes or repeated offenses. But arrest data shows that many of those being arrested have only civil immigration violations. More than half of all the people ICE arrested in July did not have a criminal record, according to a Washington Post analysis.

Tisch and Mamdani told reporters late Thursday that the ICE officers were not wearing clothing that indicated they were law enforcement personnel and said at least one officer was carrying a long gun.

“They wore construction vests and masks that concealed their faces. There was no reasonable way to identify them as ICE agents,” Mamdani said. “School had just gotten out. The street was crowded with families and children.”

Mullin said the officers were conducting a standard undercover operation against Belgal, whom officers had unsuccessfully attempted to arrest in September before he fled.

ICE officers “identified themselves and gave lawful orders when they approached the vehicle,” Mullin said. “Not to mention he knew he was wanted. He had fled once. ... I know he knew his day was coming.”

Mullin said authorities believe Belgal is connected to a gang that was involved in the shooting of a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer last year.

"It's shameful we're giving this case so much attention when this was a thug — the worst of the worst," Mullin said of Belgal.

Authorities said Belgal has lived in the United States for three years and been accused of crimes including grand larceny, robbery and theft armed with a dangerous weapon.

People who knew Belgal described him in interviews as having a turbulent life in the U.S., including getting into fights, selling drugs and mugging someone. Last year, his landlord went to court to seek payment of past-due rent from nearly a year, accusing him of a “toxic” living situation, court records show.

Others shared fonder memories. Maria Santana, 42, said Belgal lived in an apartment building in Upper Manhattan for several years but moved within the past year to the Bronx. Santana described Belgal as a “very nice guy” who cleaned up trash in front of the building, helped neighbors find parking spots and carried groceries for elderly residents.

"One time, some guy was going to fight me over a parking space, and he came down and said, 'Hey that is a woman,'" Santana recalled. "He defended me, and he didn't even know me."

Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-New York) said he visited with Belgal's 5-year-old son and his mother Thursday night. He said the family told him Belgal picked up his son from school, put him in a car seat in the back and then went to visit family members in the area when he was shot.

The child is physically unharmed, but Espaillat said the family told him he is “traumatized by this whole experience.”

The lawmaker said he was not aware of Belgal's alleged criminal history, but that regardless, the decision to fire at his vehicle in the middle of the day in a residential area put many people at risk.

“Any neighborhood in the country will be appalled of this kind of stuff happening right in the middle of it,” Espaillat said. “If anything, they were the ones that put our community in danger.”

The U.S. ambassador is accused of asking donor to pay \$100K Amex bill

BY MAEGAN VAZQUEZ AND ADAM TAYLOR

Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Thursday declined to condemn U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle over allegations that she asked a Trump donor to pay her \$100,000 credit card bill as she was preparing for her confirmation hearing before the Senate.

Vance, during a news conference in Washington on Thursday, said he would “like to get the full story before offering a real opinion” on the matter. “I don’t love that, but I don’t know exactly who you’re talking about,” he said.

And at an airport outside Athens on Thursday, Rubio brushed aside questions about the U.S. ambassador. “We don’t conduct these things in a news conference on a tarmac in a foreign country,” he added.

The allegations about the credit card bill are the latest controversy to swirl around Guilfoyle, a former media personality and prosecutor who was nominated and confirmed as U.S. ambassador to Greece last year.

Guilfoyle, who was engaged to President Donald Trump's oldest son, Donald Jr., before they broke up in late 2024, has become a high-profile figure in Athens, feted by Greece's right-wing government for her close ties to the White House. But the U.S. ambassador has been dogged by accounts of a hard-partying lifestyle and outbursts of anger at staff.

The donor making the latest claims about Guilfoyle, Eric Deters, is a former congressional candidate from Kentucky who says he supported Trump since his initial 2016 run.

Deters shared a tranche of documents, emails and text messages with The Post, writing that he was seeking the administration's help on several issues and asked Guilfoyle to use her connections before her confirmation as ambassador. The Wall Street Journal first reported on Deters's allegations.

"It won't show up anywhere if you wire money to American

Express that's all it will show ... Please," Guilfoyle allegedly wrote in a text message sent to Deters requesting the credit card payment. The message appears to include a PDF file with instructions on how to pay the bill to American Express. Deters ultimately did not pay off the bill, writing that he couldn't do it "without getting a divorce."

The alleged messages also suggest that Guilfoyle sought to trade her access to high-level officials within the Trump administration. Deters says he paid Guilfoyle \$300,000 over the past several years in speaking fees as he sought the administration's influence in tax matters and in pursuing the extradition of an Ohio doctor who fled to Pakistan after being charged with insurance fraud.

Guilfoyle at several points appeared to express awareness that the situation could skirt ethical lines, according to the alleged messages, frequently telling Deters not to put anything in writing and warning he could cost her the ambassador position.

“What a nightmare you’ll literally cost me [my] ambassadorship stop writing,” she wrote in one alleged message.

Deters, who said he began working with Guilfoyle in 2020 when she appeared at an event in Kentucky called Freedom Fest, has now firmly turned on her, making multiple media appearances on Thursday and describing her as a “grifter” and saying their relationship was “quid-pro-quo.”

The State Department, the

White House and Guilfoyle's attorney did not respond to requests for comment.

The allegations about Guilfoyle partially overshadowed Rubio's trip to Athens, where he was enthusiastically greeted by the U.S. ambassador at the airport. The top U.S. diplomat on Wednesday gave a high-profile speech in front of the Acropolis, where he attempted to set Trump's "America First" ethos in the history of Western civilization.

“We are at an inflection point — an inflection point not only in the history of my nation, but an inflection point in the whole of our civilization,” he said.

Democratic lawmakers on the House and Senate foreign relations committees wrote to Rubio last week calling on the State Department to investigate the allegations against Guilfoyle and provide an update to Congress.

If the allegations are proved accurate, Guilfoyle should be removed from her position, wrote Rep. Gregory Meeks (New York), the top-ranking Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Vance skeptical shooting will be live-streamed, says he won't watch if it is

Vice President JD Vance speaks to reporters on Friday.

Vice President JD Vance said Friday he would not watch the planned live-streamed execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan and expressed skepticism over whether it will be broadcast.

On Thursday, the Pentagon said Hasan's execution by firing squad would be live-streamed for the public to watch. It would be the first time the U.S. military broadcasts an execution live on the internet. Hasan's execution is scheduled for Dec. 3.

Vance, a Catholic who previously has said he supports the death penalty, was asked by reporters aboard Air Force Two how he reconciled his faith with the Pentagon's decision to live-stream the killing. He underscored that Hasan “brutally murdered” innocent people but added, “If it’s ultimately livestreamed, I’m not going to be watching it.”

The vice president also expressed skepticism that the live stream would take place.

"I don't know that that's actually going to happen," Vance said. "Let's sort of see."

Vance's comments mark the first time a top Trump official has signaled some unease with the Pentagon's decision to make the execution public.

Earlier Friday, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr said he would defer to the Pentagon over whether to potentially broadcast the execution on television networks.

Carr said on CNBC's “Squawk Box” that the potential live stream falls outside the FCC's regulatory power. The Pentagon has not indicated that the execution will be broadcast on television, and major networks have not said they plan to carry the feed. But broadcasters could still pick up the live feed if no restrictions are set.

When pressed on whether the FCC would allow Pentagon officials to broadcast the execution if they wanted to, Carr responded, “Ultimately, we’re going to defer to Secretary Hegseth and his decisions on how to move forward with this.”

Meta, the owner of Instagram and Facebook, has prohibited the live-streaming of capital punishment on its platforms since 2019. A TikTok spokesperson referred to its policy on violent content, which says depicting “the moment of someone’s death” is not allowed on the video-sharing service.

Meta, YouTube and X did not respond to questions about how they would apply their policies to streams or subsequent clips of Hasan's execution.

The United Nations and Amnesty International swiftly condemned the plan to live-stream Hasan's execution. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, with whom Vance has at times publicly disagreed, also called the live stream of the execution “a barbaric promotion of a culture

of death."

In Washington, some Republicans have also said they oppose the effort.

Sen. Thom Tillis, a retiring Republican from North Carolina, wrote on X on Thursday that Hasan “should face the death penalty” but that making his execution public and streaming it is “beyond disgusting.”

"Public executions are what oppressive dictatorships like

Iran and Afghanistan do," he said. "It should not be happening in America."

Sen. John Curtis (Utah) and Rep. Austin Scott (Georgia), both Republicans, also pushed back on the plan and urged Hegseth to reconsider.

President Donald Trump this week approved the firing squad execution of Hasan, a former U.S. Army psychiatrist who in 2009 shot dozens of people at the Soldier Readiness Processing Center in Fort Hood, Texas. Hasan uses a wheelchair after officers responding to the attack shot him, leaving him partially paralyzed.

Trump, who has embraced the federal government's use of the death penalty during his time in office and has expanded methods of execution, said Friday that Hasan's planned death is justified.

“We're giving a man the death penalty ... through firing squad, and he deserves it,” Trump at a Columbus Day event ahead of the Monday holiday.

While a few countries still conduct public executions, government-sanctioned executions in the United States have long been hidden from public view.

Hasan's execution would mark the first U.S. military execution since 1961, according to the nonprofit Death Penalty Information

Center. The military's last known firing squad execution was carried out by "musketry" on Nov. 9, 1945, according to the group.

Nu Wexler, a Washington-based tech communications consultant, said the tech industry should not have a hard time determining how to respond to efforts to share footage of the execution online.

“Platforms aren’t obligated to amplify a state spectacle just because the state produced it,” Wexler said. “Hasan is a martyr figure to some jihadist networks, and every clip left up is raw material for propaganda. The industry already knows how they should handle this, regardless of pressure from the Pentagon.”

Along with the few countries that still permit state-sanctioned public executions, terrorist groups have also used footage of their own killings as a tool of propaganda and intimidation.

In 2014, the Islamic State promoted videos of the execution-style killing of American journalist James Foley. Wexler, who worked at what was then known as Twitter, said that moment led the industry to become more proactive about removing prohibited material.

What to know about public executions, and why they stopped in the U.S.

BY VICTORIA CRAW

The Defense Department's announcement that it would live-stream the scheduled execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan reverses decades of established practice surrounding the death penalty.

If carried out, it would be the first known time that U.S. authorities have broadcast live video of an execution to the public. It would also be the first public execution in the U.S. in decades, the first U.S. military execution since 1961, and the first military death by firing squad since World War II, according to the Death Penalty Information Center.

The announcement has raised many legal and ethical questions, including how such an event would be broadcast and who would be able to view it.

So when was the last time a public execution was carried out in the U.S. and what other countries do it? Here's what to know.

When was the last public execution in the U.S.?

The hanging of Rainey Bethea in Kentucky in 1936 is widely considered the last high-profile public execution in the U.S, although there was a subsequent public execution in 1937 in Missouri.

Bethea, who was black, was publicly hanged for rape, after he confessed to the rape and murder of a 70-year-old white woman, Lischia Edwards, although he was never charged with murder, according to the nonprofit Death Penalty Information Center, which monitors capital punishment.

The hanging was carried out in a parking lot in Owensboro, Kentucky, to avoid damaging the courthouse lawn due to the crowds that were expected, the DPIC said.

Up to 20,000 people were estimated to witness his death. An image from the scene shows a large crowd surrounding the gallows to watch, and reports from the time described a carnival atmosphere.

Rachel Abbott, who witnessed it, told WKU Public Radio in 2016 she recalled watching it as a five year old and had nightmares about it years later. “I still have tears running when I think of it,” she said.

There was also a public execution the following year, when Roscoe “Red” Jackson was hanged in Missouri. About 500 townspeople watched the hanging, according to an AP report at the time. The DPIC identifies Jackson’s hanging as the last public execution in the U.S.

Why did public executions stop in the U.S.?

In the U.S., the spectacle surrounding Bethea's hanging contributed to the end of public executions, according to the DPIC.

Michael L. Radelet, professor emeritus at the University of Colorado Boulder, who is an expert in executions, told the Associated Press that concerns had grown as the executions grew into popular events and increasing numbers of people witnessed botched hangings, leading the policies to change.

But executions have still been made viewable to large numbers of people in certain high-profile cases. In 2001, the execution of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh by lethal injection was made available to watch for selected people on CCTV.

While around 2,000 survivors and relatives were eligible to watch, most chose not to. Around 230 people did choose to view it, The Post reported at the time. Many of those that did opt to watch described it as a memorable but unsatisfying experience, with some describing feeling resentment at how his death appeared painless.

Which countries still have public executions?

There are limited public records about how many executions are carried out around the world, with some countries treating such data as a state secret, according to Amnesty International.

At least 17 public executions were carried out in 2025, according to the group's latest death penalty report, including six in Afghanistan and 11 in Iran. Two public executions in Iran in 2026 were also reported by Iranian state media, and related to two men who were accused of killing four police officers during anti-government protests. Public executions in Iran are typically reserved for political prisoners, and carried out in a public square with cranes mounted on a truck serving as a gallows, the AP reported.

Media reports and the United Nations have also documented public executions in Somalia, while Human Rights Watch and British lawmakers have issued statements condemning public executions in Saudi Arabia.

Amnesty International has also received reports of public executions in North Korea, the group said in a 2009 report.

What are the controversies surrounding public executions?

On Thursday Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said he wanted people to be able to watch Hasan's execution “because people need to understand that there's serious consequences for these types of things.”

Jon Yorke, a professor of human rights at Britain's Birmingham City University, queried what safeguards would be put in place to ensure the content is not visible to children.

"My immediate reaction is this has taken us back to medieval times," he said in an interview, describing it as "counterproductive" for Americans to witness such an event.

Yorke said the decision to end public executions has been also linked to the notion of preserving dignity in death, and this would be undercut by a live stream. “The state shouldn’t be seen to be acting with the same violence and trauma as the criminal,” he said.

So who is Nidal Hasan and what is he convicted of? Here's what to know about the Fort

Who is Nidal Hasan?

Nidal Malik Hasan, who was then an Army major and psychiatrist, carried out a shooting rampage that killed 13 people and wounded 32 others in 2009 in Fort Hood, Texas.

The killings took place at Fort Hood's Soldier Readiness Processing Center, where troops were getting medical checkups before deploying to Afghanistan.

Hasan, an American-born Muslim, was also scheduled to deploy to Afghanistan. During the incident, he shouted “Allahu akbar!” meaning “God is great,” and targeted soldiers with a handgun, The Post reported at the time.

He fired more than 200 shots before being stopped by military police officers, and he is now paralyzed from the chest down.

Hasan was found guilty on 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder during a 22-day court-martial.

The court heard that he had carefully planned his attack, trained at a local firing range and researched jihad on his computer.

His death sentence was handed down by a panel of 13 senior military officers in a unanimous decision. Under military rules, if a single member had objected, he would have been sentenced to life in prison instead.

During the trial Hasan acted as his own attorney, called no witnesses and offered no testimony. In an opening statement, he said he had decided to “switch sides” in what he believed was a U.S. war against Islam.

What do we know about his execution by firing squad?

This week the acting secretary of the Army said Hasan's execution is scheduled for Dec. 3 in Fort Hood, Texas.

He is due to face a firing squad, in an order that was approved by President Donald Trump.

On Thursday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed the event was set to be live-streamed.

The Death Penalty Information Center, a nonprofit organization that monitors the death penalty, said there was no precedent for “an execution to be live streamed on the internet or otherwise made widely available to the public.”

The Defense Department did not elaborate Friday on plans for how the planned execution will be broadcast but said further details will follow.

A ‘barbaric’ plan, says top U.S. Catholic bishop

BY MICHELLE BOORSTEIN

The Defense Department's decision to live stream the execution of Nidal Hasan is “a barbaric promotion of a culture of death,” the president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said Friday.

"The public execution even of one who has done grave harm will only further undermine the moral fabric of our nation and be a blight on the conscience of its people," Oklahoma City Archbishop Paul Coakley said in a statement.

The firing squad execution of Hasan, which is scheduled for Dec. 3, would be the first known U.S. military execution by firing squad since 1945.

ELECTION 2026

Democrat has edge over Collins in critical Maine Senate battle, poll finds

Likely voters prefer challenger Jackson on several major issues

BY LIZ GOODWIN AND SCOTT CLEMENT

Democrat Troy Jackson has a slight edge over Republican Sen. Susan Collins with less than a month before Election Day in the Senate battleground Maine, a Washington Post-Schar School poll finds.

Jackson attracts 50 percent of likely voters compared with Collins's 46 percent in the poll of 800 likely voters conducted Sept. 30 to Oct. 5, before the two faced off this week in the first of four debates. Jackson's lead is within the range of sampling error. Collins, the chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, who is seeking a sixth term, is the only Republican senator up for reelection this year in a state that voted for Kamala Harris in 2024. The race is a key piece of the Democrats' hopes to gain control of the Senate, where Republicans currently hold 53 seats.

Jackson, a former state Senate president, became the Democratic nominee after the party's previous choice, Graham Platner, dropped out in July following a sexual assault allegation, which he denies.

Fewer than 4 in 10 likely voters, 36 percent, approve of President Donald Trump, presenting a challenge for Collins, who is struggling to outrun the deeply unpopular president enough to hang on in the blue state. A majority of likely voters — 58 percent — say Collins has supported Trump too much in the U.S. Senate.

There are bright spots in the poll for Collins, who defeated her Democratic challenger by nearly nine percentage points in 2020 despite consistently trailing in polls in the final month of the race.

Voters prefer Collins over Jackson by a 24 percentage-point margin on her ability to steer federal dollars to Maine, the centerpiece of the bring-home-the-bacon campaign she is running. They also favor her on the issue of bipartisanship, suggesting that at least a portion of voters are open to her argument that she has maintained some distance from the unpopular president.

But voters favor Jackson on five other key issues: abortion (by 16 percentage points), reducing corruption (15 points), understanding the problems of Maine voters (11 points), cost of living (11 points) and health care (9 points).

Abortion was central to the debate between the candidates earlier this week, when Collins stood by her vote to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, who voted to overturn the right to abortion in 2022. Collins has said she does not regret her vote, even though she disagreed with Kavanaugh's abortion decision. She has criticized Jackson, who served as president of Maine's state Senate until 2024, for his past anti-abortion stance.

Collins has also had to contend with a September report from ProPublica alleging that her team was tied to a pay-to-play bribery scheme involving a now-imprisoned defense contractor. She has denied the allegations, and the FBI has said it found no evidence of wrongdoing by Collins's team in the earlier inquiry into the contractor.

Collins has pointed to Jackson's son's years as a lobbyist while he served in the state Senate. (Jackson has said his son received no improper benefit

from his role.)

Voters in Maine rank cost of living as their top voting issue by far. The poll shows a majority of likely voters describing daily essentials as unaffordable for their families. Sixty-three percent rank home energy and utility bills as unaffordable, with 62 percent saying the same of gasoline. Health care and groceries were also described as unaffordable by 54 percent and 56 percent of voters, respectively.

Neither candidate is particularly popular with the public, but the poll showed that a larger share of likely voters do not like Collins. Fifty-one percent of likely voters see Collins unfavorably, compared with 43 percent who don't like Jackson.

Collins, who has built a brand as a moderate in the state over decades, is polling ahead of the Republican candidate for governor by a considerable margin. The Democratic candidate, Hannah Pingree, polled at 49 percent, while 36 percent of likely voters say they plan to vote for Republican Bobby Charles for governor. Eleven percent say they back Rick Bennett, an independent.

Collins's competitiveness also contrasts with the 55 percent majority of Maine voters who prefer a Democratic-controlled U.S. Senate.

“Collins has been remarkably resilient in the past, beating expectations and overcoming unfavorable polling to hold on to her seat,” said Mark Rozell, a political scientist and dean at George Mason University's Schar School of Policy and Government, which helped produce the poll. “This year just might be different given the likely blue wave of anti-Trump and anti-GOP voting.”

Collins has sought to portray Jackson, who's backed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), as too liberal for the state, criticizing his support for a Medicare-for-all government-funded health care plan and other policies. But the poll suggests that the argument may not be landing with swing voters. Among independents, 52 percent say Collins is “too conservative” while 40 percent say Jackson is “too liberal.” (Among all likely voters, 48 percent say Collins’s views on most issues are “too conservative” for them, slightly higher than the 43 percent saying that Jackson’s views are “too liberal.”)

A majority of likely voters — 55 percent — also support a

Medicare-for-all health plan. That includes 58 percent of independents. A majority of the state's Republicans oppose the idea. Collins is facing an anti-incumbency sentiment in the electorate, despite voters crediting her for steering millions of federal dollars back to Maine. When asked whether Collins's nearly 30-year tenure as U.S. senator is "mainly good thing because she is more effective at getting things done" or "mainly a bad thing because she is part of the problem in Washington," 52 percent of likely voters say it's a bad thing while 38 percent say it's a good thing.

The poll was conducted by The Post and George Mason University's Schar School of Policy and Government from Sept. 30-Oct. 5 among a random sample of 800 likely voters in Maine drawn from a statewide voter database. Live-caller interviewers reached respondents on cellphones (63 percent) and landlines (12 percent); 25 percent of respondents were reached via text message and invited to take the survey online. The overall margin of error is plus or minus 3.6 among likely voters overall.

Talarico struggles to clarify positions on transgender rights amid GOP attacks

JOEL ANGEL JUAREZ/FOR THE WASHINGTON POST

Texas Senate candidate James Talarico and Gina Hinojosa, the Democratic candidate for Texas governor, at a rally in Killeen in August.

TALARICO FROM A1

paign trail or in interviews, and the commitment does not appear among his policy positions online. When asked multiple times by The Washington Post whether he would sponsor or support the legislation in office, his campaign did not initially affirm his commitment.

"If elected, James will review every bill he's asked to vote on and do what's best for the people of Texas," campaign spokesman JT Ennis said in a statement.

Talarico's written commitments, which have not been previously reported, date back to last fall.

"If elected, Rep. Talarico would sponsor the Equality Act in the US Senate," he answered on a candidate questionnaire from the Stonewall Democrats of Austin, his local chapter of the national pro-LGBTQ+ political group.

He reaffirmed his support on another questionnaire in January while seeking the endorsement of the Communications Workers of America.

“We must prohibit discrimination in all forms — including based on gender identity and sexual orientation,” Talarico wrote. “The Equality Act is essential to protecting our LGBTQ+ community members from discrimination.”

After publication of this article, Ennis provided an updated statement saying Talarico “stands by his support for the Equality Act as listed on the questionnaire.”

“Any assertion that James’ stance has shifted is inaccurate,” Ennis said. The campaign did not provide an explanation for why it would not initially affirm Talarico’s support for the federal legislation.

The Equality Act — whose roots stretch back to the 1970s — states that an individual cannot be denied access to a shared facility, including restrooms, locker rooms and dressing rooms, “that is in accordance with the individual’s gender identity.” A modern version has twice passed the House of Representatives.

Talarico voted against a Texas bill last year that restricted bathroom access for transgender people, requiring anyone in publicly owned buildings, including schools and universities, to use the restroom that corresponds to their sex at birth.

Asked what his position is on the issue today and whether Talarico believes that individuals should have the right to use facilities that correspond with their gender identity, his campaign did not directly answer.

"James voted against an overly broad bill that could have subjected young people to baseless searches of their bodies," Ennis said.

Despite Republicans heavily outspending Democrats in the Texas Senate race, Talarico has continued to lead in polling over Paxton, who was impeached by the Texas House in 2023 but acquitted by the state Senate. His wife, state Sen. Angela Paxton, filed for divorce last year on “biblical grounds,” after Ken Paxton was accused of infidelity.

Talarico and his campaign have maintained that he has not shifted any of his stances. But he said on Fox News last month that he “missed the mark on some of my past statements” when asked about a 2021 comment that there are six genders. Talarico made the remark while opposing a state bill to require that students play on sports teams that correspond to the sex listed on their birth certificate.

In the same Fox News interview, Talarico said he “will oppose trans athletes playing in girls’ sports if it risks safety or fairness,” and that he would “absolutely” support a federal bill to ban gender transition surgery for minors.

In the legislature, Talarico voted against a bill that banned gender transition surgery and access to puberty blockers for minors. He filed an amendment that would have exempted physicians from the bill's restrictions if complying interfered with their Hippocratic oath. Talarico also voted in favor of a Democratic-sponsored amendment to limit the bill to a ban on surgeries.

Talarico's attempts to distance himself from some of his past positions have landed poorly among some LGBTQ+ activists and leaders. Robert Vargas III, the leader of the Texas Stone-wall Democrats, issued a statement titled “Transgender Texans Deserve Better Than Political Ambiguity” and said Talarico's remarks “represent a significant shift in his position, and that shift deserves a serious conversation.”

“We expect better,” Brad Pritchett, the CEO of Equality Texas, said in a statement after Talarico’s Fox News interview last month.

But those same leaders are still sticking with Talarico, explaining that his past record in support of LGBTQ+ rights is strong and that he is a better choice than his opponent, who as Texas attorney general has worked to restrict transgender rights.

"There are primary politics, and then there are general-election politics," Vargas said. "Right now, James Talarico needs to win the election, and we trust in the integrity and in the positions that he's taken in the past enough to know that when James Talarico gets elected, that he's going to stand behind our community.

“I believe that if he said that he’s going to sponsor the Equality Act — there’s been no indication, there’s been no statement, there’s been no policy change that I’m aware of that says he’s not going to do that.”

Republicans for several years have attacked Democrats for their support of transgender rights, focusing in particular on participation in sports and on gender transition surgeries for children. Polling has shown that most Americans are uncomfortable with transgender athletes participating on sports teams that are different than their sex at birth, and Democrats have increasingly sought to clarify that they support some restrictions.

On Thursday — just days after President Donald Trump called her a nickname using an anti-trans slur — the Democratic Senate nominee in South Carolina, physician Annie Andrews, appeared in an ad in her white coat saying she does not support “gender surgery for minors.”

"I want you to hear me loud and clear. I don't support biological men playing women's sports," the pediatrician also said.

Days after Talarico's interview on Fox, at a fundraiser in Houston sponsored by Pritchett and other LGBTQ+ leaders, including the Human Rights Campaign, the candidate told attendees that the full context of his comments wasn't clear and that the interview was clipped.

During a briefing with reporters Monday, Kelley Robinson, president of the HRC, said people who attended the Houston event told her Talarico explained that transgender kids can participate in sports without interfering with safety or fairness. He also clarified his position on gender transition care, saying politicians shouldn't interfere in decisions made in doctor's offices, she added.

But in an ad released last week, Talarico emphasized his opposition to gender transition surgery for minors, an issue Republicans have used to attack him.

“No, I don’t support sex change surgeries for kids,” Talarico said.

Obama marvels at Democrats' Senate prospects

Ex-president Barack Obama speaks at a rally in Detroit on Oct. 29, 2022. He is optimistic about Democrats' hopes in this year's midterms.
DAVID RODRIGUEZ MUÑOZ/USA TODAY NETWORK

Former president sees states in play that he ‘would not have imagined’

BY LIZ GOODWIN

Former president Barack Obama expressed surprise at Democrats' expanding midterm map at a private fundraiser Wednesday night, but warned donors not to get complacent about the party's chances, according to excerpts provided to The Washington Post.

"There are states right now in play that I would not have imagined being in play," Obama told donors in a fireside chat in Great Falls, Virginia, with Sen. Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-Delaware), a vice chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. "If you had told me, and — I know I'm the hope guy — but if you had told me that the polling currently shows James Talarico ahead of Ken Paxton ... I would have said, eh, I don't think so."

Talarico, a Democratic state legislator in Texas, is leading Paxton, the state's Republican attorney general, in most public polls.

Obama also mentioned competitive Senate contests in Kansas and Nebraska, as well as Sen. Jon Ossoff's large polling lead in Georgia, as other data points he wouldn't have previously believed.

But Obama cautioned the crowd that winning those races is far from a sure bet.

"All these races that are showing we've got a two- or three-point lead or it's a toss-up, we could end up losing all of them by two points," he said. "It's within the margin of error."

The former president has been ramping up his involvement in the midterms in recent weeks, announcing an upcoming campaign stop in Michigan for Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and cutting ads supporting candidates in crucial battlegrounds. Previously, he appeared in an ad for Iowa Senate candidate Josh Turek and at an event for Talarico.

The fundraiser for the Senate Democrats' campaign arm raised \$3.6 million. Republican groups hold a pronounced cash advantage over Democratic ones, driven by Trump-aligned super PAC MAGA Inc.

Obama painted a bleak picture of the state of the country and emphasized the urgency of the political moment to the donors, saying he sees a threat to democracy if the Trump administration continues on its path unchecked.

He criticized the Supreme Court's failure to “hold the line” against the Trump administration and stressed the importance of a Democratic Senate to the judiciary, given federal judicial nominees require Senate approval.

"If you get two more years of Trump acting with impunity, along with additional judicial appointments, so that at some point the scales may tip in the direction where he's got carte blanche, you now have a very serious danger to democracy in addition to just bad policy," Obama said.

If Democrats control the Senate, it could make “an enormous difference” on who is appointed, Obama said.

“I would say that the judiciary, during this moment of challenge to our democracy, has bent but not broken,” Obama said. “We have seen it hold the line in some important areas. To the extent it has not, it’s been the Supreme Court.”

Obama described a “breakdown in trust, the coarsening of the public discourse, the constant violation of norms, the way that our basic institutions, the executive branch, Congress, the courts seem to have been corrupted," as signs the country is on the wrong track.

"If we found out our kids were doing some of this stuff, they would be on some serious punishment, right?" Obama said of public officials' behavior. "And so, we all get a sense of a lowering of standards of behavior that extend beyond any particular policy."

Obama praised Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York) for recruiting candidates whom he described as representative of their states and cultures, mentioning Turek's focus on tariffs and Alaska Democratic candidate Mary Peltola being “all about fish.”

“Being the head of the Democratic Party is a pain in the butt, because you’ve got people from every walk of life,” Obama said.

He said it can be challenging to fashion a cohesive Democratic message with such disparate candidates, but that Democrats are united by core values shared by them all.

“What I can say is that I expect Democrats to stand for treating everybody with dignity and respect,” he said. Obama also listed fairness for people of different sexual orientations, equal rights between men and women, ensuring an economy that is not “rigged,” and believing the government should provide every child a good education among other core values.

"It's not that we don't have a North Star, but we have to be able to give our candidates the ability to tailor those core values into ways that speak and relate to the particularities of the state they're in," Obama said. "I think we're doing an excellent job."

Wife of GOP gubernatorial candidate says he is not an abuser

He has admitted to throwing his toddler son “across a room.” When he was a child himself, he says, his stepfather forced him to kill a man.

Now a podcast clip has resurfaced of Victor Marx, the Republican nominee for governor of Colorado, describing how he once slammed his wife against a door.

Opponents argue his account indicates a history of violent behavior. But Eileen Marx, his wife of 39 years, says the comments have been taken out of context. Her husband, she says, is no domestic abuser.

“Victor was my martial arts instructor,” she says in a video shared this week by Marx’s campaign. “And we practice outside the dojo.”

Marx, 61, a Marine Corps veteran, martial arts black belt and Christian social media personality, is challenging Democratic nominee Phil Weiser, Colorado's attorney general, to succeed Gov. Jared Polis (D) in a state that hasn't elected a Republican to statewide office in a decade. Colorado Democrats, in a Tuesday news conference tied to Domestic Violence Awareness Month, spoke of “the stark difference between Weiser and Republican nominee for governor Victor Marx.”

Marx, who describes himself as a survivor of physical and sexual abuse, has rejected accusations that he abused his wife or child. His campaign did not respond to requests for comment.

A spokeswoman for the Colorado Republican Party said, "Both Marx and his wife have stated that the portrayal of this event is incorrect."

"The voters of Colorado selected Marx as the Republican candidate," Mary Elizabeth Fabian-Redding said in a statement. State party chairman Craig Steiner, she said, "condemns all acts of domestic violence and encourages victims to seek safety."

The 2021 clip from Byron Rodgers' “Protector Nation” podcast is the latest during Marx's anti-establishment campaign to stir controversy. On his own podcast, he has described throwing his young son across a room. “He hit the bed ... and kind of hit the wall,” he says in a 2020 episode, “and he started crying.”

"I'll never forget that," he says in a 2022 episode of his wife's podcast. "He didn't get hurt physically, 'cause I was aiming for the bed, it had to terrify his little heart. And that was the first moment that I realized I'm not normal or well."

He did not say when or where the incident occurred.

When Marx was 7 years old, he has publicly recounted several times, his stepfather took him to rural Mississippi and forced him to shoot a man dead.

He has said he later reported the incident to law enforcement. No evidence of a homicide fitting the details has surfaced.

During the primary campaign, the self-described “high-risk humanitarian” was asked by a reporter whether that was the only person he’d killed.

"As a child, yes. Without question," Marx told Denver's 9News. "But I've been in other situations where, you know, possibly people or persons died as a result of me defending myself in other countries. There's no count on that."

Pressed whether he thinks he's killed additional people, he responded, in part, “Does it matter?”

Marx is the founder of All Things Possible, a Christian ministry that says it fights sex trafficking, abuse and domestic violence and supports their victims.

In the interaction with his wife, he says, he was encouraging her to keep up with her self-defense training. He tried to catch her off-guard, he says, by “grabbing her and slamming her into our front door.”

She “bent over and started crying, facing the opposite way,” he says in the podcast clip. But it was a ruse: “When I went to grab her, she did a spin and kick right in my luggage and I was lifted off the floor."

The clip was initially resurfaced late last month by the Daily Beast. In the video shared by Marx's campaign on Tuesday, Eileen Marx corroborates Victor's account.

"He pushed me against a door to see whether I could defend myself," she says. "I pretended to cry so he would move closer, then delivered a back kick to his groin.

"I was showing him that I could protect myself even if he was not there."

During a video call with campaign supporters shared by 9News reporter Kyle Clark, Marx said he'd "do it again."

Marx, who defeated GOP establishment favorite Barb Kirkmeyer in the June primary by fewer than 3,000 votes, has embraced an outsider image. He's said he was a friend and mentor to the conservative activist Charlie Kirk, and has garnered the endorsement of Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colorado).

Weiser, the Democratic nominee, is heavily favored in the race. He told reporters Tuesday that some of Marx's comments about women "can only be summed up as blaming victims." Marx has previously argued that Weiser's criticisms have lacked context.

After the election, Marx said last week, he intends to take legal action over false claims made during the campaign. He did not specify which claims, individuals or organizations he might target.

Ariz. House candidate says she was raped while fixing campaign signs

BY PRAVEENA SOMASUNDARAM

An Arizona congressional candidate said Thursday she was sexually assaulted while fixing campaign signs in her district in August.

Bernadette Greene-Placentia, the Democratic nominee in Arizona's 8th Congressional District, says she was fixing the signs in Sun City, Arizona, early on Aug. 14 when two men attacked her from behind and sexually assaulted her in a parking lot.

She reported the incident to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office on Aug. 31. The office declined to comment pending its

investigation.

Greene-Placentia, a long-haul trucker and small business owner, said she was speaking publicly about it to support other women who have experienced sexual violence.

“I never imagined I would have to tell this story, but I know I am far from the only woman who has lived through something like this,” she said in a statement.

“Too many survivors carry these experiences silently,” she said. “I am speaking out because I want them to know they are seen, they are heard, and they are not alone.”

She said she would continue her campaign. She's challenging Rep. Abraham Hamadeh (R), who won the district by 13 percentage points in 2024.

Hamadeh, a former Maricopa County prosecutor, called for a thorough investigation.

“No American should become a victim of a crime in their own community,” he said in a statement Thursday.

Greene-Placentia first recounted her experience in a story published by the Phoenix New Times on Wednesday. Her disclosure follows reports of an alleged gang rape at Cornell University, the details of which have spurred conversations about how sexual assault cases are handled.

Trump creates commission to assess mortgage fraud allegations against Cook

FED FROM A1

MARK SCHIEFELBEIN/AP

alerted Cook that the president was “considering” her removal from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and demanded a response within three weeks, ABC News reported.

The president has alleged that Cook claimed two homes as primary residences to get a better mortgage rate, characterizing her alleged behavior as “deceitful and potentially criminal conduct,” or, at a minimum, “gross negligence.” This followed a demand last year that Cook resign after Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, alleged that she falsified records and called for an investigation.

Cook “unequivocally” denied the allegations in filings with the Supreme Court.

The dispute involves a condominium in Atlanta that Cook bought in 2021. On at least one form, she listed the condo as her “primary” residence, which it was not. She has said that the reference was “inadvertent oversight” and that other paperwork connected to the purchase made clear that it was a vacation home.

Norm Eisen and Abbe Lowell, attorneys for Cook, wrote in a statement posted on social media that Cook had not committed mortgage fraud and would be found innocent. They said they were engaging with the White House.

Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook leaves the Supreme Court in January.

"In light of the president's re-"

peated statements that he has already decided to fire Governor Cook — regardless of the facts and evidence — we have grave doubts that this ‘hearing’ is a legitimate one that would conform to the law,” the attorneys wrote.

Daniel A. Crane, a University of Michigan law professor and an expert on administrative law, said Trump does have a path to remove Cook but the process could be lengthy.

"The president can not remove Lisa Cook or any other governor of the Fed for political reasons, only for cause," Crane said. "The court didn't give it a very precise meaning but said, at a minimum, it requires some kind of serious wrongdoing that relates to her performance of her official functions."

Crane said it is unclear whether the administration could prove mortgage fraud and, even if it could, whether it would rise to the standard articulated by the court for Cook's removal.

In addition, Crane said the court made clear Cook is entitled to notice of the charges against her and a chance to respond. He said any action would be reviewable by the courts.

“That could take a really long time,” Crane said. “Is this all going to happen before 2028?”

Crane was referring to the end of Trump's term, which could render moot the president's efforts to fire Cook if they have not been resolved.

El-Sayed, Rogers pull no punches on Michigan stage

Even mothers were not exempt in a fierce debate for critical Senate seat

BY ERIN COX

Democrat Abdul El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers swung hard and fast at each other during the first debate of Michigan's tight U.S. Senate race, a contest crucial to determining which party controls the chamber.

The two attacked each other on foreign policy, health care, career choices and their personal real estate holdings — even exchanging words about each other's mothers.

The combative tenor of the race has built for months on social media and paid television ads, and the sniping intensified Thursday. Each of the candidates aimed to cut into the other party's traditional bases.

President Donald Trump has served as a main character throughout the campaign and did so again in the debate as a foil for El-Sayed and a subject of a careful balancing act by Rogers.

The president won Michigan twice, but he has seen his approval ratings slide as the war in Iran and his tariff policy have helped drive up the cost of living.

The debate, hosted by NewsNation, showcased sometimes bitter taunting between Rogers, a former congressman and FBI agent, and El-Sayed, a Rhodes scholar with a medical degree.

El-Sayed, a public health official, would be the country's first Muslim senator if elected. His identity has been a central line of attack for Republicans, in ways that have drawn accusations from Democrats of Islamophobia.

Here are five takeaways from one of the midterms' most closely watched debates:

These guys really don't like each other

The debate's jabs transcended policy and veered quickly into the personal, as they critiqued boat ownership, truthfulness, donors and foreign real estate.

The two interrupted each other so frequently and at such length that debate moderator Rick Albin at one point interjected: “I’d like to be part of the debate, too.”

By then, El-Sayed had already brought up Rogers's "two yachts" and said "the only thing he cares about is his own power," while Rogers had called El-Sayed "a con man" and "a glitchy AI chatbot" and accused him of owning luxury property in the Middle East.

At one point, Rogers responded to El-Sayed's rapid-fire questioning of him by saying to the moderator, “I'm getting interviewed by him, not by you.”

At various points in the debate, Rogers said El-Sayed was not a real doctor, lied about his citizenship, took money from supporters of terrorist organizations and had a mother who worked for them. (All are claims El-Sayed denies.)

“Let’s do this. Let’s open up this can of worms,” Rogers said as he began to talk about El-Sayed’s mother.

"You're going after my mom," El-Sayed said.

"I'll put my mom up any day," Rogers said, adding that his mother worked at a local chamber of commerce.

When Rogers tried to direct viewers to a website he said featured El-Sayed's deleted social media posts, El-Sayed deadpanned, "You made a website. That's awesome. Good for you."

The bickering continued even through a commercial break, when the cameras were off.

“They were still continuing the argument about who owned what house where and how much it was worth,” the moderator said afterward.

There's good reason this race is so close

Since Labor Day, polls consistently have shown the race close to a dead heat, with El-Sayed leading either within or just outside the margin of error.

The debate showcased a major reason: Very different candidates offered a divided state sharply different theories about what would move voters' lives forward.

El-Sayed emphasized “cradle-to-grave” public health care, taxing billionaires to reduce the federal debt, ending aid to foreign militaries, limiting investment firms from buying up single-family homes and reforming campaign finance so that corporations and private donors cannot dominate political discourse.

"I don't think it's important for a billionaire to make a second billion. I think it's more important for the average person to be able to make their first \$100,000," El-Sayed said.

Rogers cast El-Sayed's vision as too costly and unrealistic.

"We can not afford Abdul," Rogers said, suggesting, instead, price caps for gas, an "agrarian" credit to help farmers with diesel prices, and cutting red tape to make it easier to build more housing.

El-Sayed advocated federal guardrails to limit artificial intelligence and controversial Flock surveillance cameras. Rogers suggested local control of the cameras, then took another jab at El-Sayed's family.

Surveillance cameras are important to combat terrorism, he said. “Why would that bother you? Well, if you have somebody in your family that might be on the watch list ...”

Israel and Gaza remain flash points

El-Sayed's position that Israel's war in Gaza is a genocide and that the United States should stop unconditional aid to foreign militaries dominated his primary fight against Rep. Haley Stevens and continues to be a key reason some Democrats refuse to support him.

Rogers pressed that to his advantage, accusing El-Sayed of refusing to acknowledge the third anniversary of Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel. He accused El-Sayed of accepting money from people with ties to the terrorist organization and to Hezbollah.

El-Sayed denied that. Of Oct. 7, he said, “I’ve condemned that. I didn’t turn into political theater like you just did.”

Despite tens of millions of dollars in attack ads, El-Sayed has not retreated from his position on Gaza, arguing the U.S. needs to rethink a foreign policy that sends tax dollars to military operations overseas rather than to bolstering domestic policy goals.

Israel, he said, had pushed the U.S. into war against Iran.

“Ask yourself: Are we safer because of that war? He wants unconditional support for a foreign government. I want unconditional support for kids in our schools,” El-Sayed said.

Rogers walks a tightrope on Trump

Rogers has been a Trump supporter, campaigned alongside him before the Aug. 4 primary and is relying on the president's deep war chest to help win the race.

With Trump increasingly unpopular, tying Rogers to the White House has been a major theme for El-Sayed, who during the debate accused the Republican of being a “sock puppet” for

The key issue for voters, he said was “Do you elect a U.S. senator from Michigan who wants to fight the Trump agenda?”

This week, Rogers flip-flopped on a key Trump policy that's caused economic harm to Michigan voters: tariffs against neighboring Canada.

“We know that Canada is not our enemy. We need to end the tariff war — now,” Rogers said in a campaign ad released this week, a sharp reversal from his comments last month when Rogers said in a statement that Trump “is right to put America First — and tariffs are necessary, but are not a one-size-fits-all solution.”

Asked about the reversal during the debate, Rogers said he called the White House this week to suggest Trump get “the deal done” to end tariffs on Canada.

Rogers put more distance between himself and the president by describing ICE enforcement in Minneapolis, where two protesters were killed by federal agents, as “probably not appropriate.”

El-Sayed shot back, “He said it was probably not right. I mean, it’s definitely not right. They killed two people.”

After the debate, Rogers said he'd welcome Trump if he chose to campaign for him in Michigan, saying that a lot of people want to hear from the president.

Both candidates are chasing the other's base

Each candidate is courting constituencies that would normally align with the other's base.

Rogers made an overt appeal to Democrats and people concerned about the U.S.-Israel relationship, as well as Black voters in Detroit who in typical years would be a cornerstone of a winning Democratic coalition.

"Our fastest selling sign is 'Democrats for Mike Rogers,' the Republican said after the debate. "He still has the problem. He's been insulting."

El-Sayed has been campaigning in rural and Trump-friendly parts of the state with a “it shouldn’t be this hard” theme that blames economic uncertainty and higher prices on Republicans.

He's repeatedly appeared on Fox News, and during the debate, repeatedly pivoted to economic populism, bringing up high gas and grocery prices.

Afterward, El-Sayed dismissed the idea that he couldn't consolidate Democratic votes, noting that former president Barack Obama was coming to campaign for him later this month, that he had been campaigning with Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, a former rival, and with Sen. Elissa Slotkin, a more centrist Democrat, who beat Rogers two years ago.

"We've got a unified party," he said. "Now, look, of course, you've always got to keep talking to different groups of people, and I'm going to keep doing that."

Senate incumbent Ossoff and GOP's Collins trade attacks in Georgia debate

They will face off again on Tuesday. Early voting starts Oct. 13.

BY MARIANA ALFARO

Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Georgia) and his Republican challenger, Rep. Mike Collins, exchanged attacks on the debate stage Thursday over inflation, health care and Collins's associations with people who have expressed white nationalist views.

Collins sought to tie Ossoff to his party's left wing, saying the senator has promoted progressive candidates whose views are at odds with those of many of his constituents in Georgia.

The hour-long debate, which took place in Atlanta, was hosted by Atlanta News First and Gray Media. It marked the first of two times Ossoff and Collins will meet ahead of the Nov. 3 election. They will face off again on Tuesday. Early voting starts Oct. 13 in Georgia.

Here are our takeaways:

Ossoff accuses Collins of 'bigotry,' while the GOP candidate labels Ossoff a 'radical'

Ossoff attacked Collins over his ties to people accused of embracing white supremacy or making racist and antisemitic remarks.

“Mike Collins has brought dishonor to our state through his personal bigotry and his widely documented ties to white nationalists," Ossoff said in his opening remarks.

The Washington Post reported in August that a former staffer for Collins shared images in June and July on his X account of a swastika and one that depicted himself in Ku Klux Klan robes. CNN reported in July that Collins's son-in-law, David Alan Scheer II, has shared Nazi imagery online.

Collins has faced scrutiny over his own social media feed where he has shared posts that were called racist and antisemitic.

“You’ve hired half the Third Reich to staff your congressional office and you have promoted neo-Nazi content online,” Ossoff told Collins. “If John Lewis were marching today from Selma to Montgomery, Mike Collins would be grabbing a billy club.”

When asked by one of the debate moderators how he talks to his family at the dinner table about his son-in-law's social media posts, Collins did not directly answer but said he has “condemned racism, antisemitism, hate.”

Collins labeled Ossoff a “radical,” slamming the senator over his endorsement of Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic candidate for Senate in Michigan who has embraced progressive policies and who is an outspoken critic of Israel.

“Imagine being a U.S. senator and out there recruiting, endorsing and supporting these people,” Collins said. “They want to see Israel wiped off the map.”

Candidates spar over economy, health care

Ossoff pressed Collins on his backing of President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which included cuts to Medicaid and the nation's largest food assistance program.

"If you want to understand whether the Trump-Collins budget has helped you, just go fill up a tank of gas," Ossoff said. "Diesel prices are at their all-time high in American history under Mike Collins and Donald Trump. It costs more than ever to buy a tractor for your farm, or to plant an acre of cotton.”

The two lawmakers also clashed over rising health care costs, and the closures of rural hospitals in Georgia. While touting Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill, Collins said the measure brought funding to rural hospitals and blamed the closures on Democrats' policies, including the Affordable Care Act. He suggested Ossoff wouldn't understand what it's like to worry about health care costs because he was born in a wealthy family.

For Ossoff, debate was an opportunity to address a national audience

For Ossoff, the debate was an opportunity to address a national audience as speculation swirls about whether he might seek to run for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028.

Ossoff is seen by many Democrats as one the party's most effective messengers. Throughout the night, Ossoff put Trump's policies at the center of his attacks on Collins.

“Diesel is up 70 percent since Donald Trump was elected president,” Ossoff said. “Ground beef and coffee are up 30 percent. These tariffs have crushed families and small businesses and Georgia agriculture. The war in Iran has sent gas prices near their all-time high.”

He also criticized the tactics of the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement under Trump.

“They promised to go after the worst of the worst. Instead, they’ve rounded up people at jobsites, with no suspicion of any criminal history,” Ossoff said.

DOJ grand jury investigating former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson

Was key witness in House probe of Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol

BY PERRY STEIN AND SALVADOR RIZZO

The Justice Department presented evidence to a federal grand jury this week in a case against Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide who was a key witness for a congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Federal officials have accused Hutchinson of lying to lawmakers when she testified about the events surrounding the Capitol attack, said the two people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.

It's unclear the precise charges that prosecutors are considering. But prosecutors have been exploring charging Hutchinson with a civil rights violation, potentially bringing a more unusual case than a simple charge of lying to Congress, one of the people familiar said.

The active federal grand jury investigation against Hutchinson in D.C. is the latest example of the Justice Department wielding its law enforcement powers against perceived foes of President Donald Trump. The investigation around Hutchinson began under then-Attorney General Pam Bondi, who was fired by Trump in April in part because he thought she was moving too slowly in cases against his adversaries, the people familiar said.

While the grand jury hearing the case is seated in D.C., the people familiar with the investigation said that Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. attorney for D.C., is not involved with the probe.

Instead, the investigation is being led by the Civil Rights Division in Justice Department headquarters, the people familiar with the investigation said. That division is led by Harmeet

K. Dhillon, a staunch Trump ally who has aligned the Civil Rights Division with the Trump administration's political and cultural causes. Under Justice Department regulations, prosecutors in Dhillon's division must base their investigations on civil rights violations.

The Justice Department and attorneys for Hutchinson did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday.

Punchbowl News first reported that the grand jury met this week to hear evidence in the case.

Trump and his allies for years have been calling for Hutchinson to face legal consequences.

The Justice Department began investigating Hutchinson — who was an aide to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows in Trump's first administration — after two of Trump's Republican allies in Congress, Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Barry Loudermilk of Georgia, referred her to the department this year for prosecution over what they alleged was false testimony.

In 2022, Hutchinson, then 25, gave an explosive account of Trump's behind-the-scenes actions on Jan. 6 to the House select committee investigating the attack on the Capitol.

Her testimony during the televised hearing garnered 13 million viewers when it aired June 28, 2022, according to Nielsen.

At the hearing, Hutchinson testified that Trump urged his supporters to march on the Capitol despite knowing they were armed. She testified that another White House aide at the time, Anthony Ornato, told her that Trump had lunged at a Secret Service agent inside the presidential SUV after being told he could not accompany the group as they marched from the Ellipse.

“Tony described him as being irate,” Hutchinson testified. “The president said something to the effect of, ‘I’m the f---ing president, take me up to the Capitol now.’”

When that failed, she continued, Trump “reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel." Then, she said, the president "used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel," the head of his security detail, who was riding in the armored limousine with him.

But the Secret Service agent who drove Trump and Engel that day disputed Hutchinson's testimony in an interview conducted months after her hearing, a transcript of which was released in 2024 by the Department of Homeland Security.

The driver testified that he “did not see him reach” and that Trump “never grabbed the steering wheel.”

"I didn't see him, you know, lunge to try to get into the front seat at all," according to a copy of the full transcript provided to The Washington Post.

No other witnesses corroborated Hutchinson's account of Trump in the limo, though several of those interviewed attested that the president was visibly angry.

“You know, what stood out was the irritation in his voice more than — more than his physical presence, which would have been pretty obvious if he was trying to insert himself between the two front seats,” the driver added.

Hutchinson also told the Jan. 6 panel that she was advised by the first lawyer who represented her for those proceedings to deliberately withhold information from investigators.

She claimed that the attorney, Stefan Passantino, a former ethics lawyer in Trump's White House, tried to woo her with job offers and promises of financial stability in exchange for her loyalty to Trump. In a statement to The Post at the time, Passantino denied wrongdoing.

"As with all my clients during my 30 years of practice, I represented Ms. Hutchinson honorably, ethically, and fully consistent with her sole interests as she communicated them to me," he said in the statement. "I believed Ms. Hutchinson was being truthful and cooperative with the Committee throughout the several interview sessions in which I represented her."

Trump team prepares for long economic war with Iran

Dire projections for the nation's economy have failed to come to fruition

BY SUSANNAH GEORGE

As the Trump administration pivoted to economic pressure instead of military force to push Tehran back into talks, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent pledged swift damage to Iran's economy.

All Iranian airlines would be grounded worldwide by the end of September, he said last month. The country would run out of oil to sell by the end of this week.

Iran's economy is suffering. But those pledges and timelines by the Trump administration have proved difficult to meet as it faces an Iranian government with more impetus to endure pain than to back down.

The U.S. blockade of Iranian ports has forced oil exports to minimal levels, depriving Tehran of billions of dollars in monthly revenue. But Iran continues to sell oil that it exported during the June truce. And Tehran moves some 250,000 barrels of oil a day out of the country by land, according to Kpler, a global intelligence firm.

President Donald Trump has said the economic pressure campaign, now in its second month, is intended to force Iran back to the negotiating table after the U.S. midterm elections in November, but talks remained stalled, with Iranian officials refusing to moderate their demands.

At the same time, Tehran has escalated militarily against shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, hitting more than nine vessels in a single week. The strikes follow expanded U.S. operations in the area that had facilitated higher oil flows, but failed to move global energy prices.

Regardless, the Trump administration thinks time is on its side, according to a senior administration official, who declined to discuss Bessent's remarks, including the specifics of his timelines for economic pain.

“You’ve really seen that time dynamic shift,” the official said, who spoke on the condition of anonymity under ground rules set by the administration. While Iran was able to weather previous rounds of economic pressure by dipping into its oil revenue, the U.S. blockade removes that wiggle room and is increasing the effectiveness of sanctions, the official said.

The airlines

The Trump administration announced sweeping sanctions targeting Iranian aviation on Sept. 8, threatening foreign companies that service Iran's airlines with secondary sanctions.

At the time, Bessent told CNBC that “all the Iranian airlines will be shut down around the world” by Sept. 23. He said the Trump administration had “seen enablers throughout the world.”

“We know who they are, they know who they are, and we are putting a stop to it,” he said.

But as of October, international flights to and from Iran continue, including flights to China, Iraq and Turkey.

Flight-tracking firms reported that international flights in and out of Iran dropped by about half in the days following the U.S. announcement. Recent flight-tracking data from Imam Khomeini International Airport in Tehran showed flights arriving from Islamabad, Pakistan; Istanbul; Moscow and Shanghai.

U.S. officials met with representatives from dozens of countries to build support ahead of the campaign's announcement. Treasury officials visited the United Arab Emirates, Britain and Oman to discuss upcoming efforts on aviation and banking.

While reaching out to allies, the Trump administration addressed concerns about how long the economic pressure campaign would take, according to the administration official.

“Look, we want to see a resolution to this as quickly as possible,” he said he told U.S. allies. “The sooner they can cut off all these lifelines so that Iran knows it has nowhere else to go, the sooner we’re going to get to that resolution.”

But analysts and former officials say sanctions campaigns like Trump's Operation Economic Outcast targeting Iran can take months to years to force change.

"When it comes to these economic campaigns, they are only as effective as you are willing to maintain them and enforce them, and that requires a commitment over time," said Matthew Levitt, a former Treasury Department official and senior fellow at the Washington Institute, a think tank.

The banks

In his announcement of Operation Economic Outcast, Bessent called for every branch of Bank Melli, a state-owned Iranian bank, to be shuttered.

“Any entity that facilitates money laundering on behalf of Iran will be removed from the U.S. dollar system. The clock is ticking,” he said. Last month, the Treasury imposed sanctions on the manager of an Emirati branch of the bank, and days later the United Arab Emirates blocked all branches there from processing transactions in and out of Iran.

In an indication that action against financial institutions could soon escalate, the Treasury Department issued an alert Monday that foreign financial institutions could now be subject to secondary sanctions without advance notice.

Other banks targeted include an Emirati branch of an Egyptian bank and Russia's second-largest financial institution, VTB Bank.

There's been an increase in interest in sanctions compliance "from across the globe," said Cari Stinebower, a former Treasury official who advises companies on such matters for the Washington-headquartered law firm Steptoe.

"Some of that comes from the messaging from the White House, which is that the pressure on Iran is growing and will continue to grow," she said. "I don't see this administration as backing down or losing interest."

The blockade

The United States reimposed its blockade on Iran in July after an interim deal to end the war fell apart. Since then, the operation has forced Iranian oil exports to low levels and deprived Tehran of billions of dollars in critical state revenue.

Iran has continued to sell oil that it had previously exported. Iran rushed more than 60 million barrels of oil out of its ports during the interim peace deal from mid-June to mid-July, and had steadily sold some of that stock, according to tallies compiled by oil analysts.

While it's unclear how much is left, unsold, some oil analysts estimated that 30 million barrels remained last month and that Iran was selling around 500,000 barrels a day. Reuters reported Thursday that Iran's stock of oil on vessels outside the blockade remained at some 20 million barrels.

The economic pressure, on the heels of a punishing military campaign, has plunged Iran into greater isolation than the country has experienced in decades. Richard Nephew, who served as a U.S. negotiator with Iran under the Biden administration, said multiple rounds of conflict with Israel and the U.S. had already cut Iran off.

“Part of the reason why they can be more aggressive on this is Iran doesn't have as many of these connections anymore. They had already atrophied,” said Nephew.

Nephew said the entities targeted so far to further isolate Tehran are “meaningful,” but “are these kill shots to the Iranian economy? Probably not.”

Thieves steal millions worth of wine bottles

Thieves stole about 30,000 bottles of some of Italy's most prized wines worth an estimated \$5.8 million from a winery in Tuscany, in what the producer described Friday as the country's largest wine theft on record.

The theft targeted Marchesi Antinori's facility near Cortona, in the province of Arezzo, where a group of at least seven thieves on Saturday night made off with bottles of some of Italy's most sought-after wines, including Solaia, Tignanello and Guado al Tasso. The theft was discovered Monday, but the company made it public on Friday to avoid interfering with the investigation.

Chief Executive Renzo Co-tarella said the thieves disabled the winery's alarm system and surveillance cameras before entering with two large trucks. Using the company's forklifts, they loaded the vehicles with

wine and fled during the night.

The stolen bottles were all from the 2023 vintage and are typically sold at a retail price of between 150 euros and 500 euros each. They included about 10,000 bottles of Solaia, one of Antinori's flagship wines, from what Cotarella described as an exceptional year.

Authorities are investigating how the stolen wine may be sold. Police and Carabinieri officers are examining surveillance footage and other evidence. Cotarella said he remained confident investigators could trace the shipment, noting that two truckloads of wine would be difficult to move without attracting attention.

UNITED KINGDOM Men arrested at air force base out on bail

Two Latvian men who were arrested inside the perimeter of a British air force base that houses U.S. and NATO intelligence personnel have been

released on bail, U.K. counter- terrorism police said Friday.

The base, RAF Molesworth, located 70 miles north of London, is operated by the U.S. Air Force and is home to the NATO Intelligence Fusion Center, which provides information to the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, as well as intelligence personnel from the U.S. Africa Command.

Officers from the Ministry of Defense Police and Cambridgeshire Constabulary began investigating the incident at about 10 p.m. Wednesday after an abandoned vehicle was found near the edge of the base. Police later found a small hole in the perimeter fence, and the suspects, both U.K. residents, were arrested at about 2 a.m. Thursday.

Police said Thursday that there was no indication that the arrests were related to a recent security alert at RAF Fairford, from which the U.S. Air Force has launched strikes on Iran. All of the American bombers that had been deployed to Fairford returned to

INDIA Authorities prepare for mass protests

Authorities stepped up security in the Indian capital on Friday and announced transport restrictions ahead of a planned demonstration by India's “Cockroach” movement, seeking to limit access to a growing campaign against a contentious revision of voter lists that has led to nationwide protests.

Thousands of protesters are expected to gather at New Delhi's Jantar Mantar protest venue Saturday as the movement against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government and the country's election authorities intensifies. The protesters, joined by opposition parties, are demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, accusing the poll body he heads of manip-

ulating voter lists through the revision.

Indian Railways said it canceled several trains serving two New Delhi stations for Saturday, while the Delhi Metro announced the closure of 57 stations. The restrictions could hinder access to the protest site for supporters of the “Cockroach” movement, many of them students who have relied on trains and the metro to reach demonstrations.

Local media reported that at least 23,000 police personnel had been deployed across the capital ahead of the protest.

The protests center on a nationwide review of voter lists known as the Special Intensive Revision, which has been carried out in most of India's states and federally administered territories. More than 130 million names have been removed so far. Millions of people have appealed the deletions.

A top Australian Catholic bishop has acknowledged the eight-year delay in bringing a fellow bishop to justice on charges he sexually abused young Indigenous men. But he defended the church's decision to let police take the lead in the case as a necessary guarantee. Archbishop Timothy Costelloe, president of the Australian Bishops Conference, said Friday he hoped the church could soon reopen its own in-house legal procedures against former Broome Bishop Christopher Saunders now that he has been sentenced criminally.

Polish police have arrested a string of young people, mainly for making threats related to school attacks, they said on Friday, as authorities sought to calm fears spurred by rumors online of a “Bloody Friday” after two stabbing sprees in as many days. The incidents have prompted a nationwide security response, with police deployed to 10,000 schools and the government warning against the spread of misinformation that officials fear could inspire copycat attacks.

Op-ed published by Florida newspaper was an Iranian AI fake

About 100 AI-generated articles were published across at least 20 news outlets, OpenAI said. The Port St. Joe Star, a tiny Florida weekly newspaper, recently ran one.

OpenAI said work was part of an ‘influence campaign’

BY MIRIAM WALDVOGEL

"The bill will follow Americans beyond the fighting itself," an opinion piece in the Port St. Joe Star, a tiny Florida weekly newspaper, warned of the Iran war last month.

The article ran under the by-line Ervin Hoskins, which has also appeared on articles critical of the war in larger publications including Daily Kos and Middle East Monitor, which together have more than 3 million followers on Facebook.

But ChatGPT maker OpenAI said Thursday that Hoskins's purported work was generated using its chatbot by users based in Iran as part of an “influence campaign.” The campaign placed about 100 fake articles across at least 20 news outlets, the company said.

The author photo on the Hoskins column published by the Star was generated using OpenAI's artificial intelligence tools, according to the company's online verification tool.

As artificial intelligence tools have become more powerful, some news outlets have been forced to delete AI-generated content published under fake bylines that initially went undetected by editors. Business Insider and Wired removed a series of articles last year that appeared under the byline Margaux Blanchard and appeared to be AI-generated.

But while it was unclear who or what was behind the stories written by Blanchard and some other apparently fake personas, OpenAI said in a Thursday report on use of ChatGPT in political influence campaigns that Hoskins was part of an operation focused on spreading content about U.S. military action in Iran. Many of the articles highlighted negative impacts of the war on Americans.

OpenAI said that Hoskins was among seven bylines that appeared on the series of AI-generated articles, made by users who sent instructions to the chatbot in Persian. The operations appeared to be run by a commercial outfit as a “for-hire influence campaign,” the company said. (The Washington Post has a content partnership with OpenAI).

David Adlerstein, publisher of the Port St. Joe Star, said in an email that the Hoskins column had caught his eye after it was pitched to him by a PeaceVoice, a small liberal think tank in Oregon, that had been sending the Star content for “years.” Gulf County, where Port St. Joe is located, has a population of about 15,000.

“Because we’re in a very red part of Florida, I usually don't run PeaceVoice columns, but this one struck me as thought-pro-voking and not a strident attack on Mr. Trump, which would be problematic for much of our readership," Adlerstein said. Due to his existing relationship with PeaceVoice, he did not feel a need to verify the origin or the column or the author's identity, he said.

Tom Hastings, the founding director of PeaceVoice, said the organization beefed up its existing no-AI policy after OpenAI contacted him.

OpenAI said it had banned the accounts behind the campaign and that it blocks access to ChatGPT from Iran.

"The overall activity appeared consistent with a commercial actor running a for-hire influence campaign, but we are unable to identify the particular actor involved," the company said in its report. "We have shared information on this case with the relevant authorities."

Middle East Monitor and Daily Kos said they had taken down the articles written by the fake bylines and were reviewing their processes to prevent further incidents.

As artificial intelligence tools have become more powerful, some news outlets have been forced to delete AI-generated content published under fake bylines that initially went undetected by editors.

The Daily Kos articles by Hoskins appeared on a community platform not subject to review by the outlet's staff before publication. Markos Mou-litsas, the site's founder, said in an email that such a campaign was “incredibly corrosive” to the platform.

“We already struggle with community members accusing others of being bots or fake accounts simply because they disagree with them. An operation like this pours gasoline on that fire,” he said. “The very trust of our community is at stake.”

Articles written by authors OpenAI said were part of the Iranian campaign covered a range of topics in the Middle East but were often critical of the Iran war's effects on Americans. Many of the outlets were focused on policy and foreign affairs.

After generating articles in English, the ChatGPT users in Iran prompted the chatbot to adjust the draft to fit submission criteria for a specific outlet and to generate a pitch email to send to an editor there.

The purported authors of the articles were described as freelance writers, policy analysts and peace advocates. The Middle East Monitor, which brands itself as supportive of the Palestinian cause, had published at least 21 stories under bylines OpenAI said were fake including Hoskins, Michael Harrison, Jenny Williams and Alice Johnson.

Some of the bylines, including Hoskins, also appear on social media accounts, and in one case a profile on blogging platform Medium, that shared a name and profile image with published articles. An email account apparently used to send the Hoskins article to PeaceVoice, and a LinkedIn account in his name with a photo that appeared with some bylines, did not respond to a request for comment.

At least one other purported author, Ericka Feusier, used an AI-generated profile picture, according to OpenAI's tool that verifies whether images were generated using the company's technology.

OpenAI's report on influence campaigns mounted using its technology also described a cluster of ChatGPT accounts in Russia that were banned after they were used to operate what appeared to be a fake think tank in Latin America. OpenAI said there was evidence the project may have co-opted real humans to work for the organization.

The AI company said that it published the research to inform regulators, other companies and the public of “how we see threat actors trying to leverage AI, and to shine a light on the vulnerabilities they try to exploit.”

The outlets impacted by the campaign vary in reach. But while they appear to have published AI-generated articles under fake bylines, real people have read them.

Hoskins's column in the Star prompted a letter to the editor — a rare event for an opinion piece about a national topic, Adlerstein said. He added that he is now looking into introducing an explicit AI policy.

Hastings, of PeaceVoice, said the article appeared to be genuine when he saw it.

"I found nothing remarkably pro-Iran in his work, which I would never publish, just a legitimate critique of Trump's war of choice. If Mr Hoskins sends in another I will simply require that we meet by Zoom to discuss," he wrote in an email. "At least for now, that's the best I can do."

FlyDubai co-pilot planned 9/11-style attack on Israel's main airport, UAE says

ATTACK FROM A1

trip then landed the aircraft safely in Saudi Arabia.

Israeli authorities did not respond immediately to a request for comment Friday. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said last week that Hammami had undergone “Islamic radical indoctrination” and was “suicidal.” A spokesman for Netanyahu described Hammami as “radicalized.”

“He talks on his social media about killing Jews,” spokesman Doron Spielman told The Washington Post. “So it’s very clear he had the intent and the motive to kill Jews before.”

Most of the roughly 180 people on board the flight from Dubai International Airport were Israelis, authorities have said.

Shamsi, the Emirati attorney general, said Hammami, “in the presence of his lawyer and with all the legal guarantees provided to him, gave a detailed confession of his motives and the stages of planning and execution,” the Emirates News Agency reported.

Hammami told investigators he acted alone, Shamsi said. They're working to verify the claim. They have also taken statements from Machchhar, an Indian national, now recovering in an Abu Dhabi hospital, as well as the pilots of the return flight and crew members, Shamsi said.

Shamsi said Hammami “had begun to implement a pre-prepared terrorist plan aimed at controlling the plane and using it to carry out a suicide operation" on the Ben-Gurion passenger terminal "with the intention of causing the greatest possible number of human casualties," the news agency reported.

Signs of Hammami's “inclination towards extremism and terrorism” began appearing in 2017, Shamsi said, when he was studying at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Australia, the news agency reported.

He read “extremist writings,”

followed content that “glorifies terrorist organizations and suicide operations” and was influenced by Takfirism, which advocates killing Muslim apostates, Shamsi said.

Drawing on the 9/11 attacks, Shamsi said, Hammami pursued a career in aviation that took him from Oman Air to Royal Air Maroc and, in January, to FlyDubai.

Hammami was “dismissed” from Oman Air, Yossi Avraham

Shelley, Israel's ambassador to the United Arab Emirates, told The Washington Post last week, and subsequently departed Royal Air Maroc.

At Oman Air, a person familiar with the matter told The Post that Hammami was blocked from flying plans because he held radical views. He was assigned to a desk job and resigned, according to the person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing investigation. The person did not detail the views.

The employment requirements that Hammami met at FlyDubai included holding a pilot's license and a certificate of good conduct, as well as achieving satisfactory examination results, Shamsi said.

Hammami prepared himself psychologically and physically for the attack, Shamsi said, by “intensifying his monitoring of materials that incite terrorism, and by training in boxing under the supervision of a private trainer.”

Machchhar is responding well to treatment, the Indian Foreign Ministry said Wednesday. Hammami remains in Emirati custody.

Pillay, leading human rights jurist, awarded Nobel Peace Prize

The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded Friday to Navanethem “Navi” Pillay, a leading jurist and former U.N. human rights chief, for a long career prosecuting war crimes and helping to strengthen international law.

The Norwegian Nobel committee recognized 85-year-old Pillay for her work as a judge on global courts and as a lawyer in her native South Africa. It said the decision was a reminder that accountability “underpins the system we have set up to ensure peace.”

Born into a family of Indian Tamil origin, Pillay was the first South African to earn a doctorate in law from Harvard Law School. She spent her early career defending activists fighting apartheid, including fellow Nobel Peace Prize winner Nelson Mandela. She became the first woman of color to serve on the country's high court in 1995 after the end of the apartheid regime and later served as a judge of the International Criminal Court.

In his Friday announcement, Nobel Committee Chair Jorgen Watne Frydnes issued a pointed defense of such institutions of global legal order at a time of heightened debate about their limits.

"The institutions that uphold international law are under tremendous pressure, sanctions and attack," Frydnes told reporters. Yet while "international law has never been perfect, and it's never been able to prevent all conflicts," he added, "it sets the standards."

He described Pillay as “one of the most courageous legal experts of our time” and said she was “instrumental in ensuring that war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide are prosecuted.”

Last year, Pillay led a U.N. commission that found Israel had committed genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, echoing assessments by a growing group of Israeli and international human rights organizations. Her panel faced criticism from the Israeli government, which rejected the finding.

Pillay also headed an international tribunal investigating the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, which delivered a landmark ruling that widespread rape and sexual violence could constitute acts of genocide. She now serves as a judge on the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the U.N.'s main judicial body, in a case where Myanmar stands accused of genocide against the Rohingya minority. Myanmar has denied the allegation.

The United States does not recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC, which Pillay served on from 2003 to 2012, accusing it of overreach and casting it as a threat to the U.S. and Israel. Critics of a White House push to dismantle the Hague-based court have seen Pillay's win as a rebuke of the U.S. pressure campaign, which continued Friday with new sanctions.

The U.S.'s campaign has drawn strong criticism from European officials and rights groups, who describe it as a bid for impunity that undermines investigations into atrocities.

In comments to reporters, Pillay dedicated her award to war crimes survivors and criticized threats to the ICC as “attempts to weaken international criminal justice.”

Putin after Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine and for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel's war in Gaza. The rulings, ignored by their allies, highlighted the challenge of enforcement.

Russia and Israel have also flouted orders from the ICJ, set up after World War II, to halt military attacks.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry denounced Friday's Nobel news, calling it an attempt "to legitimize anti-Israel hatred and prejudice."

Other leaders, including in South Africa and the European Union, along with rights groups and U.N. officials, welcomed the choice as an endorsement of the rule of law.

On Friday, Pillay heard about her award while at an international law forum in Nuremberg, Germany, where the trials of Nazi war crimes helped establish the foundations of international law.

"At this venue, your applause means a great deal," she said.

“But being a lawyer and a judge, I still want to verify this information,” Pillay quipped to laughter.

The Nobel Peace Prize, as established by Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel in his will, is meant to recognize those who “conferred the greatest benefit to humankind in the field of peace.”

Winners have included those directly involved in negotiations to end conflicts, as well as efforts to promote human rights, democracy, arms control or climate action. The Red Cross has won three times and the U.N.

refugee agency twice.

Throughout its history, the prize has at times triggered backlash, such as in 1973, when former secretary of state Henry Kissinger was recognized despite U.S. bombardment of Cambodia and Laos. Two committee members quit in protest. After Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed was honored in 2019 for efforts to resolve a long conflict with Eritrea, the committee faced calls to revoke the prize as his country descended into civil war the following year.

Perhaps the most prominent of the Nobel awards, the peace prize comes in the form of a gold medal and 12 million Swedish kroner (about \$1.2 million). It will be given at a ceremony in Oslo on Dec. 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death.

A five-person Norwegian Nobel Committee, appointed by the country's parliament, makes the decision. The committee received more than 280 nominations this year on the award's 125th anniversary.

In recent years, the committee has announced its choice against the backdrop of President Donald Trump's campaign for the prize, an ambition that has at times influenced the president's diplomacy. Ahead of Friday's announcement, the president, who is waging war against Iran, repeated claims that he has “settled eight wars, and big ones.”

Last year's honor went to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado, while the 2024 prize was awarded to Nihon Hidankyo, a Japanese group of survivors from the U.S. atomic bombings advocating against nuclear weapons.

Machado later handed her 2025 award to Trump at the White House in a bid to regain his favor after the U.S. toppled Venezuela's longtime leader Nicolás Maduro, just months after the Nobel announcement. The Norwegian Nobel Committee, however, has said that a prize cannot be transferred to another person.

Trump this week expressed skepticism that the Nobel Committee would recognize him but told reporters that when Machado gave him the prize, she said that “there’s never been anybody in the history of the Nobel Prize that deserves it more.”

Trump administration's sanctions escalate tensions with global justice body

resources and crippling their ability to operate against us," Rubio said. "Either the ICC will end its threats, or we will end the ICC," he added.

The Trump administration has long accused the ICC of investigations that violate the state sovereignty of countries like Israel and the United States, who are not members of the court.

Under the new U.S. sanctions, the court can no longer use U.S.-based financial services, technology companies or conduct transactions in U.S. dollars. The sanctions were issued with a six-month grace period during which companies that have business with the court must cease operations.

"The designation is aimed at disrupting the Court's operations and at intimidating those who work for or cooperate with the Court," the ICC said in its statement Friday. "This is not just about defending a single institution, but about safeguarding the international order grounded upon the rule of law," the court said.

The Trump administration's announcement came just hours after a former ICC judge was announced as this year's Nobel Peace Prize recipient.

South African jurist Navi Pillay was awarded the prize on Friday in recognition of her work in international law.

Pillay worked for years in international courts to deliver justice for atrocities such as the Rwanda genocide; she is currently a judge on the International Court of Justice in

a case where the military-run government of Myanmar stands accused of genocide against its Rohingya Muslim minority population. In the 1970s, she defended anti-apartheid activists in her home country South Africa and this year led a United Nations panel that determined Israel committed genocide in Gaza.

President Donald Trump has long said he believes he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. After Venezuelan democracy activist María Corina Machado was awarded the honor last year, she handed her medal over to Trump to gain favor with the U.S. pres-

ident.

Created in 2002 and based in The Hague, the ICC was designed to handle some of the most serious crimes in the world, such as war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide.

Trump had previously imposed sanctions on individuals affiliated with the ICC, including in August against the body's president and a senior trial lawyer.

U.S. allies and rights groups denounced Friday's sanctions.

“We regret and strongly disagree with the announcement of sanctions to be imposed upon the Court by the United States,” read a joint statement issued by Canada, Denmark, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.

"If put into effect, these sanctions will have a significant impact on the Court's work, its dedicated staff and their families," the statement continued.

Amnesty International called on states to push back. “States must take concrete action to resist the imposition of these measures and actively protect the Court,” Erika Guevara Rosas, a senior director at Amnesty, said in a statement.

"A final line in the sand has been crossed. This is an attack on the very possibility of holding those responsible for the gravest crimes accountable under international law, no matter how powerful they may be," she said.

After Cornell allegations, a headmaster speaks out, challenges male students

Stephen Beatty, the headmaster of all-boys Royal St. George's College in Toronto, urged students to speak out when they see wrongdoing.
GLEN HERBERT/ROYAL ST. GEORGE'S COLLEGE

SPEECH FROM A1

to them every Friday in his office when they were 8. But they were teenagers now, and it was his job to help usher them into adulthood.

“Gentlemen,” he said, “I want to talk with you today about something difficult.”

Beatty knew how badly his students wanted to blend in. They all wore the same blue blazers with the school's crest embroidered on the front. They kept their ties loose at the neck. Most had the same fuzzy haircut that reminded Beatty of an alpaca. They were good boys, he thought. He couldn't imagine any of them committing the kinds of sexual acts that might get them arrested. But he wanted — he needed — to ask more from them.

As he stood at the pulpit, Be-atty thought of a comment he'd seen online. People had been calling the accused fraternity brothers "the Cornell 7." One woman noted on Instagram that allegedly 50 other young men had been in a Snapchat group where a man invited them to participate in the assault. She called them "the Cornell 57."

"Not one had the courage to stop this," Beatty said. "They stayed silent."

Beatty scanned the crowd and he saw the boys had their eyes locked on him. They didn't fidget in their seats. They were listening. Beatty told his boys he wanted to talk about that silence. "School is about learning. And perhaps the most important thing you are learning is about yourself," he said, then asked: "What kind of man do you want to be?" (Read the full speech here.)

BEATTY HAD GIVEN a version of this talk twice before.

He'd first spoken to his students about rape more than a decade ago after two football players in Steubenville, Ohio, were convicted of sexually assaulting a high school girl, while others videoed the acts and posted clips to social media. Beatty gave a second version of the speech in 2024 after a woman said she was sexually assaulted by multiple members of Hockey Canada's junior championship team. The players were found not guilty last year, but Beatty remained troubled by the circumstances — multiple men were involved, and the woman was intoxicated.

When Beatty read about the Cornell case, he felt the same outrage. He wasn't sure if he had anything new to say, though. Then a few of his female colleagues told him they hoped he would speak up again.

He couldn't live with himself, he decided, if he didn't take every opportunity to teach the 350 boys in his charge how to be.

Beatty is 59 — “An old man,” he calls himself — but he remembered how hard it was to be a teenage guy. He’d attended Royal St. George’s in the 1970s and ‘80s, and he’d yearned then for guidance. Once, after his best friend died in an amusement park accident, Beatty had walked, grief-stricken, to a teacher's home to ask how to survive the loss.

That teacher had helped Beatty navigate the hardest times of his life. Beatty wanted to be that kind of mentor, but as he considered what to say about Cornell, he worried his students would feel labeled as bad just because they're boys. Beatty didn't want them to feel painted into the corner of toxic masculinity. Shame would not inspire them.

All weekend, Beatty fretted over what to say. He talked to his 92-year-old father and his college-aged sons, then, Sunday night, he carried his laptop down to his basement, turned on the Buffalo Bills football game, muted it, and began to write.

I am horrified.

He took his hands off the keyboard. Earlier that semester, he'd watched one of his boys, a giant baseball player, embroider flowers in art class. He'd watched other boys recite poetry. He'd traveled to the woods with them, and he'd listened as they talked about their parents, their fears, the secret struggles they rarely revealed.

I know your kindness, your sense of fairness, and the care you show for one another. I believe in you.

Beatty knew good people could falter in terrible situations. As a teenager, he'd watched without protest as his peers bullied an overweight boy. He knew decent people could remain silent even when they knew something wasn't right. He knew how safe silence could feel.

I know. Boys, please believe me. I know.

BEATTY WROTE LATE into the night. He read the speech again and again, and he canceled his early morning appointments. He was nervous, but as he stood at the pulpit Monday morning and looked out at his boys, that anxiety disappeared. They were listening.

Beatty thought often of the overweight boy he grew up with. He'd known as a young man that his silence hurt that boy, but Beatty had thought he was protecting himself. In the decades since, he'd realized that silence had corroded him, too. Silence numbed young men, he knew now. It stopped them from asking for help. It left them feeling alone.

“Silence can be framed as some manly quality. The strong silent type. Don’t believe that,” he told the boys. “It is not strong.”

“What is truly masculine and strong is breaking silence,” he continued. “We need to be brave. Not silent. Decide that the man you are and the man you will be will not be silent.”

In his years as headmaster, Beatty had learned that you can't just tell a boy what not to do. You have to give him clear instructions. And so he told the students to think of his speech as a fire drill — practice for a real emergency. If someone makes a degrading joke about a girl, the boys should say, "That's enough." If a boy shares a private photograph of a girl, the recipient should reply, "Don't send me that. Delete it."

“What would you do when a group chat turns cruel, or a friend starts talking about someone as though she is a prize to be won or a possession to be had?” he asked his audience. “Do you join in? Do you stay quiet because you don’t want to make things awkward?”

Beatty encouraged the boys to make things awkward. If they witnessed an assault, they needed to do everything in their power to stop it. They needed to be loud. They could break a window, pull a fire alarm. They could call their parents, or they could call him.

He told them to pull out their cellphones, then he gave them his number. Use it, he told them. Use it when you don't know what to do. Use it when you need someone to help without judgment or consequence. He told them that he loved them.

"I know you," he told them. "I know that's the kind of man you want to be and the kind of man you will be."

Beatty sometimes joked that there's nothing profound in boys. They could be deep and substantive, but they weren't usually complex in their expression. A few grunted "Nice speech, sir" as they filed out of the chapel. Others thanked him in the cafeteria that afternoon.

When he got back to his office, he saw most had already texted him. They were short messages. More than one had written only, "Hey, Mr. Beatty, it's me." Still, Beatty felt emotional. His boys were saying something. For now, that was enough.

“Trump is now willing to undermine his own sanctions for what amounts to a rounding error in global energy markets. That speaks volumes about his desperation,” said Brett Erickson, an independent risk advisory consultant who closely tracks oil markets and tanker movements.

The impact on the Ukraine-Russia war could be more significant. Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian refineries have been increasingly successful at disrupting the country's fuel supplies in recent months and have emerged as among its most effective pressure tactics against the Kremlin.

The deal drew immediate condemnation from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and from Democrats who have criticized Trump's handling of gas prices and foreign policy.

“Gifts to Putin will not bring peace or any benefit to the civilized world. Russia will ‘repay’ the diesel with further terror and perfidy,” Zelensky wrote on X. “Allowing Russia to sell petroleum products is an investment in a war that must be ended, not prolonged.”

“Trump is doing a deal with the devil to try to help his flailing political fortunes from the shockingly high diesel prices caused by his own reckless, illegal war in the Middle East,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (New York) wrote on X.

Last month, Trump announced that he had facilitated an agreement between Russia and Ukraine to halt attacks on each other's energy infrastructure — a deal that neither side signed onto.

Trump also contemplated a ban on U.S. exports of diesel before his advisers shot down the idea as likely to do more harm than good. A diesel export ban would almost certainly raise the cost of gasoline because of the way refineries produce the two fuels, officials said. Last week, Trump announced a move to stop enforcing some federal diesel tax laws for drivers, mostly in farm states, through the end of

the year.

Trump is eager to bring drivers relief, as crushing prices at the pump have become a massive political liability. Frustrations with diesel prices that average \$6.28 per gallon nationwide are a big factor in the polling gains Democrats are making in districts not long ago seen as out of reach for the party, especially in the Midwest. Diesel prices averaged \$3.68 per gallon a year ago.

The White House, however, has few viable options for bringing down the price of diesel anytime soon. Diesel prices have skyrocketed beyond the overall oil price increases that followed Trump's February attack on Iran and Tehran's response, which was to squeeze crude oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.

Friday's move is unlikely to bring diesel prices down substantially, as the amount of

Russian fuel that would come to the U.S. is a small fraction of demand.

The U.S. produces 3.6 million barrels per day domestically, about a third of it being exported to markets abroad. The Russia deal would make available to the U.S. market roughly an additional 74,000 barrels a day in the short term, according to Gregory Brew, an oil analyst at the Eurasia Group who posted about the deal on X. He also questioned the viability of the deal at a time when Russia faces an intense diesel shortage.

Russia's diesel supply has dropped precipitously as a result of the Ukrainian attacks. For the deal to work, it would seem to require a pause in those efforts. Ukraine may have little choice but to go along, given its broader dependence on Trump's goodwill to keep fighting.

The announcement came as Ukrainian negotiators and top

European security officials met in Miami with Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, in what had been billed as an attempt to reboot peace talks with Russia ahead of the winter, which is expected to be tough for Ukraine amid Russia's escalating attacks on cities.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak told Russian state media late Friday that the country will begin lifting restrictions on diesel exports “immediately.”

Novak said that the country may increase diesel exports in November and December as oil refineries complete maintenance work. He added that, despite this, the Russian market would remain “fully” supplied with the fuel, without explaining where the supplies would come from, given the existing shortages.

Trump's agreement with Putin comes less than a month after Congress passed and Trump signed a law that gave the president sweeping powers to impose new sanctions on Russia and its energy industry, the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026.

After dropping the idea of a diesel export ban late last month, Trump pressured Europe to release some of its inventories of diesel, which has helped bring prices down marginally.

But the actions — including the deal with Russia — are largely performative and unlikely to do much to bring diesel prices back down to anything close to where they were before the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, energy analysts said.

The fundamental problem underlying the diesel shortage is a global shortage of refining infrastructure. The damage done to refineries and other production infrastructure in the Middle East and in Russia has taken a major toll. These are multibillion-dollar facilities that cannot be quickly repaired and brought back online.

Trump's military operation to protect ships in the Strait of Hormuz has helped boost the amounts of crude oil making it through the waterway to levels nearing those of before the war on many days. But that does not solve the diesel problem.

That crude needs to be refined into products businesses and consumers actually use. The capacity to refine it has been deeply diminished globally.

“It does give the appearance the U.S. now has a direct interested in the health of Russia’s refining system,” said Mark Finley, an energy markets expert at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy.

Trump bought SpaceX debt days before new policy

President Donald Trump and Elon Musk in Washington on Thursday. Two days after purchasing the bonds, Trump signed a memorandum setting out the new space policy.

The purchase is revealed in the president's latest financial disclosure

BY CAT ZAKRZEWSKI

President Donald Trump bought between \$1 million and \$5 million in debt issued by SpaceX just days before the White House announced a new space-travel policy, the president's latest financial disclosure form shows.

Two days after purchasing the bonds, Trump signed a memorandum setting out the new policy, which is intended to strengthen space transportation, in part by backing industry so the United States can support more than 1,000 space launches and re-entries a year by 2030.

SpaceX is the largest space-launch company by a wide margin. Among its competitors is Blue Origin, which was founded by Jeff Bezos, who owns The Washington Post.

Trump's purchase of the SpaceX bonds differs from other recent transactions he has disclosed both in its scale and because most of the president's other purchases have involved buying stocks in companies.

Trump's latest financial disclosure detailed more than 500 transactions made by the president's financial accounts in a wide variety of companies potentially affected by his policies. The form discloses the value of investments only in ranges — in this case, between \$1 million and \$5 million. Unlike his recent predecessors, Trump has not placed his assets in a blind trust, and his accounts have made tens of thousands of trades over the course of his second presidency.

White House spokesman Davis Ingle said in a statement that there are no conflicts of interest with the president's transactions. Trump's stock-and-bond portfolio is “independently managed” by third-party financial institutions, he said, adding that all holdings are maintained in discretionary accounts and invested through “computer-based model portfolios that automatically replicate recognized indexes, such as the Schwab 1000.”

“Neither President Trump nor any member of his family has any ability to direct, influence, or provide input regarding how the portfolio is invested or when investments are bought or sold," Ingle said.

Ingle did not respond, however, to questions about whether the bond purchase was executed by an algorithm of that sort. He said all of the investment decisions are “made entirely by independent managers” but did not answer a question about who decided to buy the SpaceX debt.

There are bond indexes that include SpaceX debt. However, it would be unusual for investors to purchase debt to track bond index funds, said a financial adviser who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they did not have direct knowledge of the president's financial strategy.

High-net-worth individuals sometimes buy individual stocks to track an index to avoid some fees involved in buying an index fund, the person said. That practice, however, is rarely applied to bonds, the adviser said.

SpaceX sold bonds this summer to support its heavy spending on AI data centers, which support its subsidiary xAI, the maker of Grok. The company also has high costs associated with developing its Starlink satellite network and Starship craft.

By selling bonds rather than issuing more stock, the company was able to acquire capital without further diluting equity after it went public this year.

SpaceX is led by Trump's political ally Elon Musk, who ran the U.S. DOGE Service in the early days of the administration. After tensions last year, the pair have rekindled their alliance. Musk has been a frequent presence at the White House, attending

Trump's state dinner for Chinese leader Xi Jinping and the lunch he hosted last week for AI CEOs.

On Thursday, Trump presented Musk with the National Medal of Science, celebrating his work at SpaceX.

“Elon is our modern-day Thomas Edison,” Trump said as he presented Musk the award. “You’re my friend and all of that, but you are a very, very special guy.”

Wall Street finishes its record-setting week with gains as oil prices fluctuate

STAN CHOE Associated Press

NEW YORK — The U.S. stock market finished its record-setting week with gains on Friday, even as other financial markets remained indecisive.

The S&P 500 climbed 0.6 percent for its first gain since setting its all-time high three days earlier. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 423 points, or 0.8 percent, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.6 percent.

The strength came as oil prices continued to yo-yo 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 percent.

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 percent from 5.22 percent late Thursday.

It recently touched its highest level since 2002 because of worries about high inflation, the U.S. government's massive debt load, signals that the U.S. economy is continuing to grow and other factors. High yields threaten to slow the economy by making borrowing money more expensive for everyone, and the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has already leaped to its highest level in nearly three years.

On Wall Street, Humana rallied 11.6 percent and helped lift the U.S. stock market despite the swings in the oil and bond markets. The insurer said it received encouraging data about its quality ratings versus its competitors for Medicare Advantage plans.

Companies that own cell towers were also at the front of the market, including leaps of 15.6 percent for Crown Castle and 9.3 percent for American Tower.

They rallied after SpaceX announced a purchase that could help it become a major mobile carrier in the United States. It still needs to get approval from U.S. regulators, but SpaceX said the purchase of low-band spectrum would allow its Starlink Mobile business to have a signal that can penetrate walls and connect customers inside buildings who may not be able to access its satellites. SpaceX's stock added 1.2 percent.

The threat of another big competitor sent stocks lower across the wireless industry, including drops of 13.3 percent for T-Mobile US, 9.8 percent for AT&T and 8.7 percent for Verizon.

The pressure is on companies broadly to deliver strong growth in profits after their stock prices ran toward records despite the downward push from high bond yields. Next week will bring high-profile profit reports from the country's biggest banks, including Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo all on Tuesday.

Expectations are high for corporate profits, even as Americans say they're feeling more squeezed by high inflation. A preliminary report from the University of Michigan said Friday that U.S. consumers are raising their own forecasts for how bad inflation will be over the coming year.

They're expecting inflation of

4.7 percent, up from their forecast of 4.6 percent a month ago and just 3.4 percent in February before the war with Iran began. Sentiment among consumers is falling sharply for Americans with lower incomes and smaller investments in stocks, who can least afford the fast increases in the cost of living.

All told, the S&P 500 rose 46.18 points to 7,811.54. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 423.31 to 51,654.95, and the Nasdaq composite gained 172.83 to 27,366.17.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Model submits false homicide tip to police

An Anthropic artificial intelligence model submitted a false homicide tip through a Philadelphia police website, the department said in a statement, the latest incident of an AI model going rogue and behaving with unintended consequences.

Anthropic notified the police earlier this week and said that an automated testing process was responsible for the submission, according to the police.

The fast-advancing technology has become a matter of keen national interest amid reports of AI agents running amok and hacking into corporate computer networks, and warnings from prominent researchers that it could one day pose an existential threat to humanity. In September Anthropic rival OpenAI apologized for the hacking of an Australian government website by a rogue AI agent, the first known instance of an AI agent hacking a government website.

The Philadelphia police department said the tip “was flagged as spam and was never forwarded to the Real-Time Crime Center for investigative vetting or dissemination,” and added that Anthropic had told them the company intended to publish a report on the incident on Friday.

Pennsylvania law specifies it is generally a misdemeanor crime for “a person” to knowingly give false reports to law enforcement authorities. This includes “information relating to an offense or incident when he knows he has no information relating to such offense or incident.”

Anthropic told the police the testing process was stopped after the incident was uncovered.

The false tip was submitted through PhillyUnsolved-Murders.com concerning an unsolved homicide. The tip, dated July 18, 2026, purported to come from someone who might have information about the case, the police said.

HEALTH CARE Drug to treat herpes sores approved

The U.S. FDA on Friday approved Japan's Asahi Kasei's drug for persistent herpes simplex virus sores in certain patients with weakened immune systems who have not responded to available antiviral treatments.

The oral drug, called pritelivir, was developed by German drugmaker Aicuris, which Asahi Kasei acquired in April.

Pritelivir blocks proteins the herpesvirus needs to copy its genetic material, stopping it from multiplying and allowing the drug to work against some infections resistant to older treatments.

DIGEST

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval was based on a late-stage trial involving 101 participants, in which sores healed completely within 28 days in 62.7 percent of patients who were given pritelivir, compared to 34 percent receiving other treatments. — Reuters

AIR TRAVEL Delta warns about need to curb growth

Delta Air Lines said on Friday that the industry may need to curb flight growth further next year to protect profitability, as surging fuel costs forced the carrier to cut its 2026 profit forecast by nearly a quarter despite strong travel demand and higher ticket prices.

The warning highlights a growing challenge for U.S. airlines. While strong demand and limited seat growth have helped them raise fares sharply to

offset higher fuel costs, adding too many flights in an effort to capture more of that demand could intensify competition for passengers, making it harder to sustain higher fares and protect profits.

The Atlanta-based airline now expects its annual fuel bill to rise by roughly \$6 billion from last year, about \$2 billion more than it projected in July, as the Iran war has driven jet fuel prices sharply higher worldwide.

Airlines globally are bracing for a prolonged fuel shock. Ryanair Group CEO Michael O'Leary said on Thursday that elevated jet fuel prices could persist for another 12 to 18 months, adding to pressure on airlines to raise fares and control costs.

Delta Chief Executive Ed Bastian said Delta had raised ticket prices by roughly 20 percent this year with limited resistance from travelers. He expressed confidence that those higher prices could be sustained even after fuel costs eventually decline.

Melius Research analysts said Delta's ability to raise fares was helping it keep second-half earnings broadly flat despite soaring fuel costs. But they cautioned that its profit margins have struggled to improve for years.

The FBI has arrested an accused co-conspirator of a criminal hacking group that said last month that it had breached the bureau's jobs portal and obtained sensitive and personal data on nearly all employees of the law enforcement agency, Director Kash Patel said Friday. The arrest was the latest targeting ShinyHunters, the group that claimed responsibility for the hack. The identity of the person arrested was not immediately clear, nor what charges they might face.

Democrats, don't kill this win for U.S. energy

SENATE NEGOTIATORS last week unveiled a compromise bill that, if passed, would constitute the most important reform to the American energy sector in generations. Unfortunately, the same forces that defeated previous permitting reform packages — primarily left-wing interest groups — are threatening to smother this legislation. Democrats would be wise to ignore the naysayers and take the win.

The package is enormous in scope and full of good ideas to boost every variety of energy development. That's crucial, given the soaring demand for new electricity to power the artificial intelligence boom. It's also necessary to power all the projects that environmentalists say they support to combat climate change, such as shifting toward electric vehicles and electrifying home heating.

Among the bill's most important provisions are reforms to the National Environmental Policy Act, the source of lengthy environmental reviews and endless lawsuits. The new bill would narrow NEPA's scope, such as by exempting projects to repair essential infrastructure from environmental reviews. The measure would also impose strict deadlines for lawsuits against a project; once an agency issues a decision about that development, opponents would have 150 days to sue.

A similar restriction would be placed on lawsuits filed under the National Historic Preservation Act. That law has led to routine nuisance suits that hinder vital construction, including a transmission line connecting cities across the Southwest and wind farms in New Mexico.

Another important element of the package would limit the ability of states to block necessary projects. For in-

The same forces that undermined previous reform efforts threaten to tank this one.

stance, developers currently looking to build a transmission line across multiple states must seek approval from each jurisdiction, and any state can essentially veto the project simply by not reviewing it. The result has been frozen investment in some regions, exacerbating congestion in local electricity grids and raising prices. The Senate's compromise addresses the problem by giving state officials a year to review a project, and if they fail to act, federal regulators could approve the proposal if they determine it is in the national interest.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The legislation restricts federal obstructionism, too. One provision prohibits agencies from taking “new action that would revoke, rescind, withdraw, terminate, suspend, amend, or alter a Federal authorization or permit.” That’s clearly in response to the Trump administration’s shortsighted efforts to block wind energy projects.

WASHINGTON POST STAFF ILLUSTRATION; ISTOCK

The bill also includes provisions aimed at allowing utilities to charge data centers more for the energy infrastructure they use. The Senate measure has more teeth than the Ratepayer Protection Act, which passed the House last month with bipartisan support.

Even though many of these provisions would be a boon to clean energy industries, some environmentalist groups are gearing up to try to kill the bill because of provisions that would make it easier to transport fossil fuels, especially through natural gas pipelines. Utilities, which have long opposed expanding federal control over interstate power lines, are also likely to mount a lobbying campaign.

Other Democrats are holding out in hopes that they can negotiate a better deal if they control the House and Senate next year. Among them is Rep. Jared Huffman (California), the top Democrat of the House Natural Resources Committee.

But this is a fantasy. No matter what happens in November, Democrats would need buy-in from Republicans to pass a bill through the Senate. They would also need President Donald Trump to sign any measure. Lawmakers may not like everything in the bill, but waiting for the perfect permitting reform package is a recipe for inaction and economic stagnation.

What readers are using instead of ‘grandma’

Though the Oct. 3 Style article "What's in a name? Plenty for Gigi (or Nana)" included many names for grandmothers, many of the growing number of great-grandmothers I know share one: "GGMa." It fits all of us, and it often gets passed from one generation to another. My grandson had a GGMa, and now I am happy that his two young sons know me by that name. As average ages increase, perhaps someday "GGGMa" will be common!

MANY MIRACLES occurred last week during the failed hijacking of FlyDubai's Flight 1073. The Indian captain opened the cockpit door after being attacked with an ax so that passengers could restrain the terrorist co-pilot. A plumber initially steered the plane from its nose-dive. The aircraft did not split in half. Add another to this magical list: Arab-Israeli cooperation.

Foiled hijacking showed a shifting Middle East

It was a reminder that, despite continuing hostilities, Iran may not be winning its long war for regional dominance.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog (C) awards Tali (L) and Zvika (R) Manes the Presidential Award for Civilian Heroism in Jerusalem on Thursday. Tali called for help after hearing a commotion, and Zvika rushed to the cockpit to help subdue the co-pilot.

When Hamam al-Hammami attempted to hijack the flight bound for Tel Aviv, the plane — with more than 180 people aboard — dropped 17,000 feet above nations that do not formally recognize the existence of the Jewish state. The passengers, most of whom were Israelis, restrained Hammami; another pilot who happened to be on the flight landed the plane in Saudi Arabia.

Once-mortal enemies of Israel played critical roles in returning the passengers home. Saudi Arabia permitted the plane to land within its borders despite lacking diplomatic relations with Israel. The United Arab Emirates, which has become a crucial partner of Israel, has the pilot in custody. The Emirati attorney general said on Friday that Hammami planned to fly the aircraft into the passenger terminal at Ben Gurion International Airport, outside Tel Aviv, and used two previous flights to scout the route.

It wouldn't always have played out this way. When the modern state of Israel was officially established in 1948, Arab countries attempted to destroy the nascent nation. They failed. Some states attempted again in 1967 and 1973. They sponsored terrorist attacks, including another hijacking incident in 1976 that targeted Israelis and ended in a heroic rescue mission known as the Entebbe Raid.

A lesson missing from my gerontology education

In that case, Uganda hosted terrorists who held more than 100 mostly Israeli hostages. After Israeli Special Forces freed all but three, Idi Amin's government sought a condemnation of Israel at the United Nations. Though Saudi Arabia didn't vote for the resolution, the kingdom allowed Amin to claim political asylum less than five years later. In 2026, states that once aided Israel's enemies now prefer to partner with the

Jewish state, even if they do so quietly.

The Abraham Accords, a series of bilateral U.S.-brokered deals between Israel and several Arab countries, have forged this more cooperative culture. The agreements establish diplomatic relations between Israel and Arab countries, but they also include economic, defense and travel initiatives. It's a boon to everyone involved: The UAE has increased its trade with Israel by \$15 billion since 2020. Even the hijacked flight's path is evidence: Commercial flights from Tel Aviv to Dubai started in 2020.

Though Saudi Arabia isn't a party to the Abraham Accords, its military cooperation with Israel shows this new culture expands beyond formalities. The Houthi rebels in Yemen remain a thorn in the Gulf state's side, but Riyadh is now reportedly turning to Israel for intelligence sharing, albeit through U.S. military channels.

country from which the hijacker originated, had banned the co-pilot from flying due to his extremist ideology, but a lack of diplomatic relations prevented that information from reaching Israeli authorities. That should prompt a renewed push for more cooperation.

Tensions remain. In a break with custom, Abu Dhabi, not Riyadh, is investigating the hijacking, and the Saudis refused to let Israeli military planes recover the passengers last week. Investigations have revealed that Oman, the

Put aside the question of Iranian involvement in the incident. The Islamic Republic failed last week. Two slogans of the Iranian Revolution come to mind: "death to Israel" and "death to the United States." Since 1979, the regime has funded terrorist groups and attacks outside its borders through its Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to achieve those aims. Through funding groups such as Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis, Tehran seeks to divide the Middle East and keep the U.S. out. It's still not working. A Middle East where U.S.-brokered agreements facilitate Arab-Israeli cooperation is anathema to Iranian hegemony.

Oil prices remain high and the mullahs keep firing missiles, but Arab-Israeli cooperation is no small achievement. Though extremists like Hammami will keep trying to literally blow up progress, terroristic ideology won't win the long war.

I'm 6. I saw the article about names for grandmothers, but I didn't see “Muwa,” which is what I call one of my grandmothers. I call my other grandmother “Granny.”

Aeshani Hekel, Burke

I was amused by the Oct. 3 Style article about names for grandmothers. When my granddaughter was born, her other grandmother chose the moniker “Gigi.” As the article noted, Gigi is a popular name grandmothers choose to be called. Our Gigi remains Gigi.

Well, it turned out that my granddaughter couldn't say “Lolli” and it came out “Lala.” (Somewhat unfairly, she could say “Pop” just fine.) When she was a little older, my son and his wife asked whether I wanted to revert to Lolli since my granddaughter could now say it. I kept Lala. I love that my granddaughter named me. (Also, she thinks that the Christmas carol “Deck the Halls” is about me, and I have yet to disabuse her of that notion. “Fa la la la la ...”)

I, on the other hand, wanted something different. I proposed that I be called Lolli and my husband would be called Pop. Frankly, I thought our “Lollipop” combo was pretty clever.

Raya Elfadel Kheirbek's Oct. 4 oped, "As a doctor in palliative care, I've learned to know who's not in the room," was a powerful examination of loved ones' absences during a parent's final moments of life. When my father died at 93 in a nursing home, he was joined only by his therapy dog, Penny, and her owner.

I am studying psychology at Manor College, and I loved Richard Sima's Sept. 22 online Brain Matters column, "Taking care of grandchildren may help slow cognitive decline." I am fascinated by cognitive function, but the reason I was drawn to this article goes beyond my academic background.

Dementia couldn't take my grandmother's spirit

My late grandmother had Alzheimer's disease. She was a kind lady, but she was also stubborn. She insisted I take something to eat from the fridge, and if I didn't, all hell would break loose. She was the textbook definition of a Jewish grandmother.

Every holiday and birthday, she tried to give me cash, and I would always decline. She didn't have a lot of money, so it never felt right to accept it. Now, I find myself struggling with the idea that I should have accepted her money and eaten the food she offered because perhaps that was her way of caregiving.

Sima wrote, “The act of caregiving as a grandparent may also be linked to a younger brain.” Even though my grandmother had dementia, she was as quick as a whip. She would often ask me about my love life, and one day I asked her, “What about you, Grammy? Why don’t you have a boyfriend?” She said, “Eh, too much work.”

My brother had been estranged from my father for years, so much so that Dad once told me, “I wouldn’t even know Allan if he walked in this room.” I frequently visited Dad, but each time it would cost me \$1,000 to make the trip. He and I kept in touch mostly through weekly phone calls. I wrongly thought this time was another false alarm of Dad’s impending demise, and not being there has truly been one of my life’s greatest regrets. It hurts that a golden retriever had to convey the love I wish I had conveyed myself.

Both Dad and Penny knew who wasn't in that room, but I pray they both saw, as Kheirbek wrote, "my absence." Thank you, professor, for teaching me a lesson that my master's degree in gerontology never covered: the importance of who's not in the room at the time of one's death.

Kheirbek truly spoke to me when she concluded, “I have come to believe that one of the quiet duties of medicine at the end of life is simply to notice the people who are not in the room — and to let the dying person know that their absence has been seen.” How I wish someone like Kheirbek had let my father know my “absence had been seen.”

The U.S. can't win in Iran until Trump makes a decision

If you listen to some people these days, Washington should start planning victory parades. "We won. Iran lost. Period," says CNN's Scott Jennings. Hugh Hewitt concurs, and the Wall Street Journal editorial page agrees the tide is turning — and they all have a point. The American military is getting oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz from the United States' Gulf allies, while choking off Iran's exports. This is a remarkable display of military ingenuity. But it does not make the war a success.

Remember how it got here. In June 2025, the U.S. and Israel massively bombed Iran's nuclear facilities, and Trump declared its nuclear program "obliterated." Eight months later, in February, they went to war again, with far bigger ambitions. They attacked Iran's leadership, killing its supreme leader and many senior officials. Trump urged Iranians to overthrow their government. The objective was clear: regime change.

But the Islamic republic survived, closed ranks around hard-line generals, installed a new supreme leader and unleashed the weapon it had long threatened to use: closing the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of the world's oil passes. After more than seven months of war, the U.S. is now engaged in a vast campaign to force Iran to stop blocking a waterway that was open before the war began. Washington has mounted this operation to restore the status quo — and is calling its progress victory.

Consider the costs just to get back to where things were. According to the Pentagon, the tab has reached \$45 billion, and the Congressional Budget Office estimates that even a low-intensity conflict will cost another \$2 billion monthly. At least 19 American service members have died. The U.S. has likely used between half and two-thirds of its inventory of certain sophisticated missile-defense interceptors. Replacing them could take more than five years, and these are weapons the U.S. would need against China. By the end of June, at least six American warships had been diverted from the Pacific to the Middle East.

Since the war began, Brent crude oil prices have averaged around \$100 a barrel, roughly 40 percent higher than before the war. Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, estimated that the war's cost to the average household as of July was more than \$1,200 in higher prices, interest payments and military spending. Americans have paid about \$130 billion extra for gasoline and diesel alone. Higher diesel prices have jacked up the cost of trucking, farming and food. Families heating their homes with oil could face bills 50 percent higher this winter.

The damage abroad is staggering. Gulf states have seen their trust in Washington shattered. In addition, they face soaring shipping costs and collapsing tourism. Dubai's hotel occupancy plunged from nearly 85 percent in February to 23 percent in March. Governments must spend billions repairing infrastructure and building alternative routes around Hormuz. Energy-importing countries, which means most of the world, have struggled paying the bills.

During the Vietnam War, the U.S. would regularly detail the massive damage it had done to the enemy, from weapons destroyed to body counts of enemy soldiers dead. But the test of success is whether that damage makes the adversary cry uncle. So far Iran has not surrendered, and there are reasons to think more bombing will not change that reality.

The fundamental problem with Trump's approach is that he cannot decide whether he wants to change Iran's policies or its government. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent illustrated the contradiction in September when he said the message to other countries was: "This is the end of the regime." Yet in the same interview, he insisted the goal was not necessarily to collapse the government but to pressure it into negotiations.

Addressing the United Nations last month, Trump wondered whether he should make a deal allowing Iran to rebuild into a greater country — or “annihilate the Islamic republic and do it quickly.” Meanwhile, his envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, were negotiating with Iranian officials. Washington was threatening to destroy the government while asking it to negotiate seriously.

If Iran's leaders believe Washington intends to destroy them regardless of what they do, why would they make concessions? Their incentive would be to resist, inflict costs and outlast the U.S. In Foreign Affairs, Stephen Biddle and his co-authors argue that wars ultimately end through political bargains. Military force can improve the terms of those bargains but cannot substitute for them. The U.S. has repeatedly forgotten this lesson, from Vietnam to Afghanistan to Iraq, demonstrating extraordinary skill at destroying armies but much less at translating battlefield achievements into lasting political outcomes.

The Trump administration must decide what it wants. If the goal is policy change — reopening Hormuz, constraining Iran's nuclear program and curbing its regional aggression — it must define achievable terms and pressure Iran to accept them. If the goal is regime change, it must plan for a bloody struggle, probably with more regional spillover. Until Washington resolves that contradiction, the country will remain stuck in its latest Middle Eastern quagmire.

A tale of Google and Anthropic — and the future of civilization

The parallels between the most important initial public offering of the internet era — Google's in 2004 — and the apparently imminent IPO of what might be the defining artificial-intelligence company of our day — Anthropic — are portentous.

If Anthropic succeeds in selling shares to the public before Thanksgiving, it will herald not just the arrival of a newly public company, like Google 22 years ago, but also the birth of an industry. The many ways Anthropic mirrors the Google of the mid-aughts — and the critical ways it is different — speak to where Silicon Valley and society have traveled in a generation.

Google went public at the then-astounding valuation of \$23 billion. That was a fraction of Microsoft's market value of nearly \$300 billion. But Google was then only six years old. Anthropic, founded in 2021, is said to be seeking a valuation of \$2 trillion. That, too, is less than the stratospheric market caps of Nvidia and Apple, both around \$5 trillion, but unfathomable for a company with Anthropic's limited track record.

The Google of yesteryear and the Anthropic of today share similar positions in the young market for their wares. Just as Anthropic was not first to market with its Claude AI assistant — OpenAI's ChatGPT taught the marketplace about “generative” AI — Google followed Yahoo into the “search engine” business. Though Anthropic has not eclipsed OpenAI in the way that Google eventually smothered Yahoo, Claude has succeeded in overshadowing ChatGPT, which hogged the limelight for a hot AI minute.

Anthropic's co-founder and CEO, Dario Amodei, and Google's founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, share a penchant for epistolary verbosity. The Google boys, just around 30 when their company went public, wrote a famous letter to prospective shareholders in their company's IPO prospectus, warning that "Google is not a conventional company. We do not intend to become one." Amodei, 43, is a prolific writer, frequently posting his thoughts about AI's impact on the world. His most recent dispatch was a 3,800-word plea for AI companies to slow their roll.

There is a shared cleverness in the way that Google, which in 2026 is very much a conventional company, and Anthropic communicate. Signaling a determination to play by its own rules was a strategic advantage for Google. Its slogan “Don’t Be Evil”

— which featured prominently when the company went public and was then quietly retired from its code of conduct in 2018 — raised eyebrows. From its earliest days, Anthropic has positioned itself as the AI company concerned about safety — a jab at OpenAI, where Amodei worked before co-founding his own firm. Anthropic's stated mission is “the responsible development and maintenance of advanced AI for the long-term benefit of humanity.” Urging AI players to pause to consider the calamitous possibilities of their efforts can be simultaneously an act of genuine concern and a shrewd maneuver to protect Anthropic's commercial advantage.

Even the market conditions confronting these two pioneering companies at the time of their respective IPOs are similar. Google's leaders feared a choppy market in 2004 because Yahoo had re-

cently reported weak results, souring investors on internet stocks. Anthropic, which has already been meeting with potential institutional investors, is now deciding whether it should plunge ahead with its offering despite market volatility that has already pushed other companies to delay their public debuts.

Anthropic is not Google, of course, and there are considerable differences between the two. Google's product was beloved by consumers, who didn't pay to use it. Anthropic has positioned itself as a darling of businesses, which pay for subscriptions for its premium versions.

Google was already wildly profitable at the time of the IPO; Anthropic, not so much. Google had earned nearly \$150 million in just the first half of 2004, and its cash-printing business model of selling high-margin ads delighted investors. According to a report in Reuters, which got a sneak peek at Anthropic's shareholder prospectus, the company had an operating loss of \$8 billion last year. Its appetite for ever more computing power is a drain on potential profits.

Google went public for one chief reason: A securities law, since amended, required companies with more than 500 shareholders to file their financial results publicly. Google figured that if it was going to disclose this information, it might as well reap the benefits of being a public company. Anthropic badly needs additional financing to fund its massive investments in data-center capacity. If its IPO doesn't fly, Anthropic will raise yet more cash from private investors.

Perhaps the biggest difference between the two companies is the risks faced in their IPOs. Google's biggest concern was being able to manage its growth. Whether its innovative approach to digital advertising ultimately worked on a large scale meant little to society. The success of Anthropic, and of its entire industry, represents a self-acknowledged risk to humanity. "Our development of highly advanced models, platforms, and applications and expansion of use cases could further increase the risk that our models cause harm," the company warns, per Reuters, which noted that 80 pages of the 261-page prospectus are devoted to risks, compared with 48 describing its business.

Google's IPO represented a paradigm shift in the digital economy. The stakes are considerably higher for Anthropic, whose actions, it is no exaggeration to assert, might well affect civilization as we know it.

ANALYSIS

We don't have to live in the nightmare of passwords. There is a better way.

Three years ago, Google made passkey authentication the default for consumer accounts, freeing Gmail users from having to depend on passwords. But many sites still don't offer it.
DAVID GOLDMAN/AP

BY ROB PEGORARO

One of the few times you can reliably see a human smile after logging into a site is in a hacker movie, when the hoodie-clad hero sees their exploit work and smugly pronounces, “I’m in!”

One of the others is when passkey authentication — a relatively new way of logging into websites and apps — works as advertised.

I don't need to remember or type a password. Instead, a silent, swift exchange of cryptographic credentials allows a site and my computer to verify their identities and my access. I confirm that by touching my device's fingerprint sensor — and boom, I'm in.

Three years ago, Google made passkey authentication the default for consumer accounts, freeing Gmail users from having to depend on passwords. But many sites still don't offer it, or they treat it as a security side quest. And the software and hardware to streamline passkey use remains incomplete.

To rework one of the more memorable sentences published in consumer-tech journalism: Passkeys can still be too hard to use, and it isn't your fault.

What passkeys do that passwords can't

Passkeys retire passwords

Passkeys retire passwords — and the need to remember them. You no longer face the risk that an attacker can obtain one of these precious bits of information.

Instead, passkeys rely on pairs of digital keys using a standard overseen by a trade group called the Fast Identity Online Alliance (FIDO). When you create a passkey for a site, that site stores a unique public key for you. Software on your device, usually your browser or a password manager, saves a corresponding private key. You don't have to memorize anything.

When you next visit that site using whatever software saved your passkey, the site will ask for proof that you have the passkey. The software sends a signature generated from the private key — not the private key itself.

Finally, you confirm that you're in charge, usually with the fingerprint or face-recognition biometric security you already use to unlock your device.

This neatly solves the old problem of phishing attacks by fraudsters seeking to trick you into typing a password at an impostor site (yes, that's a link to a 2004 Washington Post story), because a passkey session can only start at the correct site.

This also dispenses with the need to verify your password log-in via a one-time code sent to one of your devices — an increasingly inescapable routine with online accounts.

Passkeys can't solve the problem of somebody stealing your computer and forcing you to unlock it. But if that happens, you have a much bigger problem — and in the meantime, passkeys themselves face issues that you as an individual can't solve.

Inconsistent support, even among competitors

Major email and cloud services quickly rolled out pass-key authentication to reduce account takeovers. Big online retailers like Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy soon followed, seeing a chance to keep customers who struggle with passwords from leaving their sites.

(Amazon Executive Chairman Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post.)

But passkey deployment among other sites remains irritatingly uneven. For almost every name brand listed in pass-key-support lists like the FIDO

Alliance's directory, you can find multiple competitors that ignore passkeys.

Hotels? Hyatt supports them while Hilton, IHG and Marriott do not. Airlines? Air France and Air New Zealand are in, while U.S. carriers are out. The regional bank I use for business welcomes passkey log-ins; the much larger banks I deal with do not.

Passkey-compatible sites generally still require passwords as a backup option if you lose a device with a passkey, but too many of them (see, for example, LinkedIn) continue to show passwords as their default log-in. Others (in my experience, Facebook and Login.gov) outright require you to log in with a password before letting you confirm that by using your passkey instead of a two-factor code.

Many sites that have ig- nored passkeys instead try to solve their security problem by making you do more work: They impose multifactor authentica- tion on every sign-in.

The worst among them only send those one-time codes via email or text, then force you to type each character instead of pasting in the entire code. They might as well announce, “We hate our users, especially the ones with any dyslexia.” You can expect them to be the last in the world to support passkeys.

Spotty support on devices

Living the passkey life is easiest if you confine your computing to one company's platform — and if every device you use supports biometric authentication.

If one doesn't let you sign in with your fingerprint or your face — a regrettably common scenario in low-end laptops and even higher-end desktops — each passkey log-in there will demand whatever passcode you use to unlock the machine. That gets old rapidly.

The simplest possible passkey scenario is to use only one browser and have that manage passkeys, but things stay relatively simple with multiple devices if you don't mix platforms.

You only use Macs, iPhones and iPads? Apple's Passwords app will do. You instead rely on

Google's Chrome browser and Android and ChromeOS operating systems? Google Password Manager works.

But if you split your screen time — in my case, among a Mac desktop, a Windows laptop, an Android phone and an iPad mini — you will need a password manager that can sync them among all those systems.

Most cross-platform password managers come with an annual subscription; Bitwarden, however, does not and consistently earn positive reviews from sites that I trust. I, meanwhile, use 1Password in part because that service provides free service to journalists.

One more thing

Password managers themselves were supposed to solve our security problems by flagging weak and reused passwords, making it easy to generate, save and use complex passwords, and only auto-filling them at the right sites.

But even a good password manager can't stop a stressed or tired user from ignoring warnings about mismatched domain names and pasting in a password at a phishing site. And AI is only making phishing lures more convincing.

Multifactor authentication was also supposed to cure the phishing plague, but fraudsters figured out soon enough how to copy codes entered at look-alike sites into the correct ones.

And before then, we had silly IT-department dogma like “change your password every 90 days.”

So if you see yet another round of security advice that involves changing how you log into sites — and then think “Really? Again?” — your annoyance at an industry that keeps failing you is not your fault.

But passkeys really do work. I mean it this time.

This age-old career fear is now a thing of the past, recruiters say

In a 2026 survey from the jobsite Monster, 13 percent of respondents said they fibbed on their résumés.

Use gaps in your job history to direct the conversation

BY JULIA CARPENTER

As millennials and other young workers navigated a turbulent job market, they routinely heard career advice warning them against “job hopping” and the much-dreaded “résumé gap.”

But today, job hopping is much more normalized in the workplace. There's less expectation on the part of companies or their employees that they are forever committed to each other. And in many sectors, hiring managers understand that moving from firm to firm is often a financial decision as well as a career choice.

When people periodically change jobs as part of the normal course of things, there are bound to be some gaps along the way. So why does that scary old “résumé gap” still strike fears into the hearts of jobseekers?

When she started her career in executive search, Noureen Ali said she distinctly remembers being trained to look for résumé gaps and job-hopping as indicators of someone's poor commitment. Now, working as the principal director for HR advisory services at McLean and Company, she advises leaders on talent strategy and acquisition. These days, she said, hiring managers and recruiters don't need to rely on "signals" like that anymore.

“That is not actually capability,” she said. “Those were dated predictors of success.”

But in a tricky job market, people worry any little thing — a typo in a cover letter, a résumé gap, a dated LinkedIn profile — could set them back. In a 2026 survey from the jobsite Monster, 13 percent of respondents admitted to fibbing on their résumés, mostly to either beef up their skills or fudge employment dates so as to minimize any appearance of a gap.

Diksha Gupta, a 35-year-old postdoctoral research associate based in Charlottesville said she has taken enormous steps — living an ocean away from her spouse and traveling for jobs on different continents — to avoid the “résumé gap.” She worries it could come across poorly to fu-

ture employers.

"What will I say? How will it look to other people that I did not have a job, despite my having a PhD?” she said. “My biggest fear is that they think I’m incompetent, that there is something wrong with me that I couldn’t

get a job."

But most employers today won't balk when they see a gap on a résumé, said Lisa Williams, senior vice president of human resources at LendingTree. People have time between jobs because of personal health reasons, caregiving responsibilities, corporate layoffs or a particularly long job hunt.

But if there's a gap of longer than six months on a résumé, Williams doesn't want jobseekers to try to hide or obscure that period — instead, she encourages them to directly address it in an interview or cover letter. Intentionally framing that period of time can open a bigger discussion about related certificates, skills and life experiences accrued during the so-called "gap," she said. And most important, bringing it up head-on means you can take charge of the conversation.

"Don't hide it, because then you leave it open for the interpretation of the employer even if it is something like, 'Unfortunately, I was impacted by a corporate reduction' or 'I was taking care of a sick family member,' she said. "You don't need to provide a lot of detail, but just naming it and putting it on your résumé, it prevents the employer from making assumptions they shouldn't make."

Why are retirees going back to work? There are many reasons.

BY JOHN CSISZAR

After decades of working, many retirees plan to ride off into the sunset and finally enjoy some free time and leisure activities, with Social Security and savings covering the expenses.

But for some retirees, the numbers just don't work out. What may have looked like a comfortable retirement on paper turns out to be something else when the bills start rising, especially against a fixed income.

In 2025, 18.4 percent of Americans ages 65 and older were employed, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Separately, the Federal Reserve found that 16 percent of people who considered themselves retired had worked for pay in the previous month. Among that group, 52 percent cited financial reasons in 2025, up from 45 percent in 2024. Those saying they needed money just to make ends meet rose from 25 percent to 30 percent.

Poor planning isn't necessarily the problem. Traditional pressures, like unexpected medical bills or family obligations, continue to squeeze retirees. But persistent inflation as we've seen over the past few years can throw even well-thought-out retirement budgets off track.

According to a Bureau of Labor Statistics measure of inflation among Americans 62 and older, prices rose about 23 percent between August 2021 and August 2026.

Ashley Morgan, a bankruptcy attorney and the owner of Ashley F. Morgan Law, regularly works with clients facing financial difficulties. Morgan said she's seeing retirees struggle with higher prices across a range of typical expenses, from grocery prices to property taxes and insurance premiums.

As an additional wrinkle, many retirees are also providing financial support to family members, creating another drain on savings that some have not planned for in advance.

Many retirees don't have the capacity to cover this multitude of higher expenses all striking at once. "You can't prepare for everything," Morgan said.

Debt is another expense that can force retirees back into the workforce. When making a financial plan, many envision a retirement that is debt-free. But when costs rise all at once, some

resort to using credit cards to plug the gap. Federal Reserve research found that 33 percent of adults ages 60 and older carried a credit card balance at least once during 2025.

Even a number of small credit-card transactions over time can make matters worse. A retiree with a relatively small \$500 monthly shortfall could end up \$6,000 in debt by the end of the first year. Add in interest charges and the problem can grow considerably faster.

Will Allen, founder and financial adviser at Sentara Capital, said retirees often underestimate how much their expenses will change over time. Many only include modest inflationary adjustments in their retirement budgets and “have not updated the cumulative impact of the past couple of years.”

Returning to work after retirement can bring some potential financial complications, too.

Someone who started collecting Social Security before reaching full retirement age could have benefits temporarily withheld if their earnings exceed certain limits. In 2026, Social Security withholds \$1 for every \$2 earned above \$24,480 by retirees below full retirement age all year. Benefits are adjusted at full retirement age to account for the withholding.

Additional earnings could make more Social Security benefits subject to income tax. Even retirees on Medicare could face higher premiums down the road in the form of an income-related adjustment, which generally uses tax information from two years earlier.

To avoid an unwanted return to work, retirement expenses need to be realistic before leaving the workforce.

Allen recommended trying out a retirement budget while still employed. Someone expecting to spend \$8,000 a month, for example, could try living on that amount for a year to see how well it holds up.

He also stressed that it's not usually the regular monthly expenses that disrupt retiree budgets. Rather, it's the irregular expenses that crop up, such as home repairs or helping family members financially, that often get overlooked in the planning process. To help avoid this, Allen recommended that retirees review several months of bank and credit card statements so they can take note of irregular expenses and set aside money for unexpected costs.

After all, it's much easier to make changes to a retirement plan while there's still a pay-check coming in than after it's gone.

Affleck's 'Animals' lacks human textures

BY JAKE COYLE Associated Press

We have now gotten two remakes of Akira Kurosawa's “High and Low,” and yet not a single new rendition of “Stray Dog.”

Lamentable though that imbalance may be — you may have your own Kurosawa favorite — it's not hard to see the contemporary appeal of 1963's "High and Low." It's an ingenious plot. A wealthy businessman believes his son has been abducted by kidnappers. But they've mistakenly taken the wrong boy: his chauffeur's son. Paying the ransom becomes an anguished moral dilemma, rife with socioeconomic tension.

Last year, Spike Lee moved the drama to New York and the music industry in "Highest 2 Lowest." Now, in a new Netflix movie, Ben Affleck has transferred "High and Low" to Los Angeles and politics.

In ‘NAZA,’ filmmakers train a lens on Israel’s war machine

revoke the citizenship of Abraham and Szor.

BY ETHAN BECK

In 2023, shortly after Israel began its military campaign in Gaza, Israeli filmmakers and journalists Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor started conducting interviews with soldiers and intelligence officers in Tel Aviv.

The resulting documentary, “NAZA,” takes a look at the technology used by Israel in Gaza to identify military targets. Anonymous sources in the film said the technology also has been used to kill Palestinian civilians.

The war, a response to the Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7, 2023, that killed about 1,200 Israelis, has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have condemned the film and threatened to

After a September debut at the Venice Film Festival, where the film received a 25-minute standing ovation, “NAZA” arrived in U.S. theaters, ahead of Israeli elections at the end of the month. It follows Abraham and Szor’s Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land,” which looked at villages in the West Bank that Israel’s Supreme Court said could be demolished.

For much of “NAZA,” Abraham sits on rooftops in Tel Aviv, posing direct questions to 24 soldiers — whose identities remain secret — who had roles in the war in Gaza. The first public screening in the United States, which took place at the New York Film Festival, was protested by a small group with the Israeli-American Council.

Lackluster reimagining of a Kurosawa classic never finds much of a pulse

'ANIMALS' FROM B1

In ‘Animals,’ the son of Cecilia and Ramon, played by Luis Gerardo Méndez and Adriana Paz, is kidnapped by mistake. A crisis fixer, played brilliantly by Gillian Anderson, is enlisted to help.

between Denzel Washington and A\$AP Rocky, a subway car full of Yankee fans shouting "Boston sucks!" It wasn't nearly his best film, but it was unmistakably a Spike Lee film.

But Affleck, who directed, cowrote and stars in “Animals,” never finds much of a pulse in his lackluster Kurosawa riff for Netflix.

In transferring the story to Los Angeles, Affleck, who wrote the script with Connor O. McIntyre and Billy Ray, opens the hostage story up to new thematic fronts — divorce, public persona, duplicity — that have meaningful reverberations for Affleck, a Hollywood A-lister who has navigated fluctuating opinion polls and much-publicized personal dramas for the better part of his career. Yet those parallels aren't enough to enliven this far-from-wild “Animals,” an Affleck-directed movie well shy of his better “A”-titled films, “Argo” and “Air.”

The movie opens with political ad artifice. Mark Kimball (Affleck) is running for mayor of Los Angeles, and in the film's glossy beginning, he earnestly pledges transparency. But once the opening credits have rolled in "Animals," a less-rosy reality sets in. As Mark smiles his way through campaign headquarters, his campaign manager, Sam (Steven Yeun), tells him their big ad spend didn't help enough: He's still trailing the incumbent by four points.

Mark maintains his optimistic front, but inside his office, panic is setting in. To bankroll the ads, Mark has mortgaged his home. If he loses the election, Mark says, he'll lose his house and, soon after, his wife.

Like Mark's political image, much is for show in his domestic life, too. His wife, Abigail (Kerry Washington), a psychologist, is cheating on him. Mark is unaware, but we can sense that their relationship is largely a facade. Mark also runs on a pro-immigrant platform, but when the couple's housekeeper, Cecilia (Adriana Paz), asks them to hire her undocumented immigrant husband, Ramon (Luis Gerardo Méndez), they decline out of fear that it could harm Mark's campaign.

On Halloween night, Mark and Abigail's son, Denny, is kidnapped. A phone call comes: \$7 million to save him. For the well-off Kimballs, this would typically be solvable — except because Mark has borrowed against everything they have, raising the money is more complicated. On Sam's advice, they call in a mysterious crisis fixer, Dayle Burton (Gillian Anderson), who, we gather, will inevitably compromise Mark's pledges against corruption.

From the start, it's a crisis for both the kidnapped boy and Mark's political campaign. Even in such a fraught moment, Mark is encouraged by his campaign manager to consider how things will appear. That's doubly true when it turns out that the kid-

nappers have unwittingly taken not the Kimballs' son, but Cecilia and Ramon's.

Affleck is a savvy and thoughtful filmmaker who can deftly weave human stories, genre mechanics and social issues together. But “Animals” feels narratively underpowered and melodramatically forced. It offers Affleck some good opportunities to flaunt his Spanish and comment on the false fronts that exist in both public officialdom and intimate relationships. But it doesn’t come anywhere close to matching the propulsion of Kurosawa.

Affleck, who earlier this year sold an artificial intelligence company to Netflix for more than \$500 million, has said he used AI in the making of “Animals.” It’s difficult to tell where. But the greater issue is that “Animals” generally appears flat and visually bland, lacking the human textures the story needs.

But before “Animals” loses its grip, Anderson casts a momentary spell over the film. In a brief, underwritten role, she — sensational earlier this year in “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma” — elevates the film. Even when handed ham-fisted dialogue like “Humans are animals that tell stories,” Anderson is queen of this “Animal” kingdom.

sons to speak," Abraham said in New York. "For some of them, they felt a need to talk — especially in Hebrew — to penetrate walls of denial, of justification, of silence in Israeli society."

Many of the findings in the film, related to Israel's artificial intelligence technology and how it was used in Gaza, were published in the Guardian, which produced "NAZA," along with the Israeli-Palestinian +972 Magazine and the Hebrew-language publication Local Call.

Three years after the Oct. 7 attack, and a year into President Donald Trump's Gaza peace plan, the people of Gaza face bleak conditions, The Post reported. Hundreds of thousands live in tents, plagued by infectious diseases, while hospitals remain overwhelmed. "NAZA" includes phone footage from Gaza captured in October and November 2023 as Palestinians looked for family members under rubble.

“You don’t need to hear from Israeli soldiers to understand the horrors of what is happening in Gaza,” Abraham said. “Part of the reason they persist is, still, a lot of people are denying them. Part of our hope is, by making this film, we are making that denial a little bit harder.”

Here's what to know.

What does NAZA mean?

“NAZA” is an acronym for “nezek agavi,” which means “collateral damage.” The figures in the film use “NAZA” to describe the number of civilian casualties calculated before a strike. One subject in the documentary said the NAZA metric doesn’t distinguish between a child and an adult.

Another soldier said that targets resulting in fewer than 20 civilian deaths didn't require special authorization. One interviewee said they once received approval for an operation targeting one Hamas militant even though 500 civilian deaths were anticipated. The military denied that this strike, “or anything close to that number,” took place.

"At the start of the war, we bombed everything," one soldier said. "NAZA wasn't an issue."

Why are the interview subjects anonymous?

In “NAZA,” a soldier said that if they were visible in the film, the Israeli government would retaliate against them. The subjects wouldn’t speak unless anonymity was granted, Abraham said. Granting anonymity to protect sources is common in investigative journalism.

"This film would not have been made in any other way," Abraham said in September. "Because the crimes are ongoing, we felt that it was important to make it. And we understand there is a complexity there."

The Israeli military criticized the film's anonymous testimonies, describing the claims as “general and unverifiable.” Abraham and Szor said the testimonies were vetted.

What military technology does the film focus on?

The interviewees in “NAZA” contend that Israel used advanced systems, often involving artificial intelligence, to kill suspected Hamas militants. One subject recalled working on and using an AI tool to create a database of Palestinians in Gaza that suggests targets connected to Hamas. Another system, described by a source in “NAZA,” recommended buildings to target.

("An algorithm has never decided on a strike," the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement about the film.)

Palestinians were surveilled, an interviewee said, by hacking into the cameras and microphones on their cellphones: "You feel a bit like God because you hear everything they say."

One said they did this to determine when a targeted individual arrived home. Intelligence officers used the phrase "Where's Daddy?" to refer to hacking the phone of a child, before launching an airstrike on the family. "You hack her phone, and then you kill her," one subject said.

What do the interviewees think about the war?

When prompted by Abraham, one interviewee said the war has resulted in a genocide, the same conclusion as that reached by a United Nations commission last year. “We have to describe these things as they really are,” they added. Several described a sense of importance around “completing the mission,” with one adding that they don’t hate Arabic people. Many said they didn’t believe they were supposed to speak up. “I’m just a small cog,” one said.

Toward the end of “NAZA,” one interviewee contrasted what’s happening in Gaza with the Holocaust. The film draws out this comparison by noting a retrospective on documentarian Claude Lanzmann — who directed “Shoah,” the 1985 film that contains over nine hours of interviews with Holocaust survivors — taking place in Tel Aviv at the time. “I still see the Nazis as evil,” one interviewee said, “but what does that mean I am?”

Pandemics, blackouts, artificial intelligence among bunker builders' concerns

BUNKER FROM B1

PHOTOS BY VIVOS GROUP

CLOCKWISE FROM TOP: A subterranean living room featuring a home theater setup. This kitchen can hold plenty of food in its two refrigerators. Bunker bunk beds (try saying that five times fast).

wants a new hole in the ground, it's hard to blame anyone else for wondering whether they need one, too.

Bunkers are designed to get occupants through an emergency, and they need to run on their own, often fully underground and off-grid. That means that every request, no matter how basic or extravagant, runs into the same stubborn questions: Where does the air come from? Where does the sewage go? How many people are inside, and for how long?

Those questions have become more complicated as shelters, and the threats they're meant to address, evolve. For a long time, bunkers were designed to protect inhabitants from the fall-out of nuclear weapons. Today, builders respond to concerns over blackouts, electromagnetic pulses, pandemics, cyberattacks, chemical and biological weapons, and AI.

"The number one threat everywhere is a prolonged grid-down event," Camden said, describing an extended loss of power in which food, water and other basic services become scarce, potentially leading to riots or other security problems. "The grid is fragile. That's what everybody is designing for now."

The solutions vary widely. Some companies sell modest shells that buyers finish themselves; others engineer custom shelters into private estates, with independent power, water, air filtration, medical space and, at the highest end, elaborate amenities. The result is a market with very different ideas about what a bunker should provide, and what buyers are willing to pay for it.

At Vivos xPoint, a shared survival community built from 575 concrete bunkers at a former Army munitions depot in South Dakota, customers can lease an unfinished 2,200-square-foot bunker for 99 years for about \$55,000, or buy one with land for about \$75,000. Outfitting it is extra.

Prefabricated shelters occupy another tier of the market. Atlas Survival Shelters, a Texas manufacturer, lists modular steel models starting around \$60,000, with larger versions climbing into the hundreds of thousands of dollars or more, before freight and installation.

Bespoke residential shelters are considerably more expensive. Camden said a cast-in-place reinforced-concrete bunker typically costs about \$800 to \$2,400 a square foot before furnishings, depending on depth, site conditions and the level of protection required. The target market for these dwellings is not exactly middle class: His firm, Hardened Structures, currently has about \$70 million in work underway across eight residential projects.

Some clients expect shelters to function less like emergency refuges and more like protected homes. Builders describe private bedrooms, running water and sanitation, independent energy and amenities like meditation rooms, movie theaters, gyms and spas. Much has been written about the sprawling compounds of tech titans like Mark Zuckerberg, whose 1,400-acre Kauai property includes plans for a 5,000-square-foot underground shelter. But even non-billionaire buyers want creature comforts for the apocalypse.

“People today want more of that at-home feeling,” said Dante Vicino of Vivos, which markets shelters to a broader range of customers. “Before they might’ve been okay with a minimalist utilitarian [interior], but now they’re asking for special kitchen cabinets, countertops and islands ... a master bedroom with an en suite bathroom, space for crafts and hobby rooms.”

Bunker scale can vary dramatically. In most cases, shelters are small and private, buried beneath or beside a high-end home, but some firms describe expansive protected estates or communities. Sharon Packer, a longtime nuclear engineer with Utah Shelter Systems, said her current slate includes an expansive, multimillion-dollar bunker for 400 employees and family members of a private company. SAFE, a company in McLean, Virginia, claims to have designed shelters with spas, go-kart tracks and detention areas. Survival Condo, an elaborate compound in rural Kansas, boasts education facilities, a rock-climbing wall and a 75-foot salt water pool.

But the first rule of having a bunker, it seems, is that you do not talk about having a bunker. Owners generally do not want their locations disclosed, experienced builders work under strict nondisclosure agreements, and the industry is full of ambitious claims that are difficult to verify. Completed projects and glossy renderings are not always easy to distinguish from one another.

The field also sits somewhat outside mainstream architecture discourse, said Keller Easterling, an architect and professor at Yale. While urban designers often grapple with questions around climate resilience, land and infrastructure, she sees private doomsday bunkers as an expression of trends like increased privatization and concentrated wealth.

Uncertainty, of course, is part of the bargain. While some of the engineering can be precisely calculated — air, water, waste, power, occupancy and storage, for example — other questions around bunker design are murkier. How long would people actually be able to stay underground? Would it be long enough to outlast the emergency in question?

For a nuclear event, Packer tells clients that the most dangerous radiation from a single blast falls sharply over roughly two weeks, making very long underground stays unnecessary in many scenarios. Longer-term survival may depend more on what still works above ground. Camden generally steers private clients away from designing for stays longer than 30 days, though some have asked his firm to plan for a year or more. The longer the stay, the more space is needed for food and supplies, but also for privacy, movement and simply getting away from one another.

“Having been in shelters for a while, I can’t wait to get the hell out,” he said.

Planning for a theoretical catastrophe can lead clients in unexpected directions. Packer once helped design a bunker for a client's horse, with access between the family shelter and a shielded area built into a hillside. Usually, though, she tries to level with folks: Complicated systems can fail when no technician is coming to repair them, she tells them. Her advice, drawn from shelter training in Switzerland, is to keep it simple. And for ultra-wealthy clients who aren't used to managing daily operations, she offers a practical suggestion: "Make room for your handyman."

In many doomsday scenarios, the human problem takes a darker turn. Camden said some projects incorporate what he calls “anti-mutiny” procedures, intended to prevent a security detail or other occupants from taking control of a shelter during a crisis. Every underground shelter also needs an emergency escape. “Without one, you built a tomb,” he said.

Camden has watched the feared catastrophe change repeatedly over his career, from nuclear war to Y2K to AI. He says his largest shelter, a 15,000-square-foot project in Appalachia, was rushed to completion amid fears surrounding the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012. In the end, nothing happened.

"The future is nothing but a range of possibilities," he said. "No one knows what's going to happen."

I compartmentalize my wife's serial cheating. Is that sound strategy, or insanity?

ILLUSTRATION BY NICK GALIFIANAKIS/FOR THE WASHINGTON POST

if this is strategy or insanity. — Compartmentalized

Adapted from an online discussion.

Carolyn Hax

Dear Carolyn: I've been serially cheated on by my wife. I have not directly confronted her. We have settled into routine and can enjoy a day without issue if I compartmentalize my knowledge of her deceit, which now comes more easily. My heart is not in it, my kids are my life, my work supports us and fulfills me, along with hobbies.

If I can take what pieces of enjoyment I can from my weak relationship, live my life finding love and fulfillment outside of my supposed partner, and let the kids have a “normal” upbringing in the midst of background secrecy, is that fantastic adaptation and coping in a tough situation? Or am I just a masochistic time bomb waiting to have a breakdown?

In the thick of it, I'm not sure

Compartmentalized: So it's either studied denial, or BOOM? I think I'd like more choices.

I have to think you would, too.

We know you're lying to your wife — pretending not to know how extensively she's lying to you. The question is how much you're lying to yourself about the arrangement and how okay you are with it emotionally.

That you're asking me says you're not okay. But the better way to figure things out is to spend some good honest you time facing the questions that won't go away.

There are different versions of this. The first version is, on your own, to imagine a life where you tell your wife the truth and then live with various configurations of that idea:

- Same marriage but you're transparent about it, finally. "Open," I guess you'd call it? But it seems more like a shared home with separate rooms

and social lives — essentially roommates.

- Earnest reckoning with the marriage and a mutual attempt (at least) at repair and eventual monogamy.

- Separation toward eventual divorce.

At various points of your days, think where you'd be at that moment if you chose one of these options. Better? Worse? Too weird to know? Not that you'd be 100 percent in control of the outcome — you're just pushing your mind out of the "This is fine" meme flames you're living in.

The second version is to skip the mental role-play stage and put yourself in solo counseling. It may take a few tries to find a guide you're comfortable with, but once you have one, make it your goal to figure out what you want and feel, and where your lines are between healthy trade-offs and self-erasure.

I vote for Version 2 — but getting therapy set up and paid for takes time, so try on Version 1 in the meantime. (Unless your workplace has an Employee Assistance Program. Then you can usually talk to someone in a matter of days.)

I will add, a “weak relationship” and “supposed partner” are what you’re modeling for the kids, no matter how well you think you’re masking it. Kids see stuff. So make honesty about your kids’ actual home life part of your reckoning here.

A reader's thought: If anybody needs therapy, it is you. Serial cheaters are the death of your heart, and to be married to such a person — oy. Don't underestimate kids. They probably already know she is a cheater. You are not happy; you are numb.

BIRTHDAY | OCTOBER 10:

Some absorbed with what ever you're doing. Enjoy life this year! Your creativity and zest for life are at a pinnacle! Nurture the happiness and beauty you have within. Let your guard down and loosen up a bit. Have fun but remember your goals.

Moon Alert: Avoid shopping (except for food and gas) and important decisions after 6:30 p.m. today. The New Moon is in Libra.

ARIES

(March 21-April 19)

Today's New Moon is your chance to think how you can improve your closest long-term relationships. Do you listen carefully? Examine your behavior in your relationships. What do you expect? What do you offer? What kind of friend are you?

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20)

(April 20-May 20) Today is the best day of the year to think about how you can work smarter and be as productive as possible because the New Moon is in your House of Employment. This applies even if you're not in a salaried job. Will setting goals help? Making lists?

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)

(May 21 June 20) Today's New Moon urges you to examine your attitude to romance, your style of relating to children, and your appreciation (or lack of it) of your creative talents. Do you enjoy your leisure activities and creative opportunities? Think: creation, procreation and recreation.

HOROSCOPE

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)

You're a nester. Today the only New Moon all year is in this part of your chart, which is your chance to think about how you can improve your relations with family members. What can you do to improve where you live? Ideas?

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22)

Today the only New Moon all year in your House of Communications is happening. Observe your style of relating to everyone on a daily basis. Are you clear in your communications? Are you friendly? Are you courteous and thoughtful? Or do you ignore these life-enriching qualities?

VIRGO

(Aug, 23-Sept, 22)

Today's New Moon is in your Money House. Your belief about something affects how it manifests in your life. Do you respect money as energy to make things happen? Are you "easy come, easy go," or "a penny saved is a penny earned"?

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today the only New Moon all year in your sign is happening. Take a realistic look in the mirror. What impression do you create on your world? Your appearance dictates much of how people treat and respond to you. Ideas?

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today's New Moon is in the part of your chart that symbolizes your unconscious behavior. Because each New Moon is a chance to make resolutions, you might examine where you undermine yourself. In what areas of my life am I most self-defeating?

BRIDGE

Simple Saturday columns focus on basic technique and logical thinking.

"How much does a free finesse cost?" may seem a silly question, like "Who designed the Eiffel Tower?" But the cost in today's deal was 730 points.

North-South bid easily to 3NT, and West declined to lead from one his four-card suits; he had no entry to cash a winner even if he established it. He tried a spade, and South took the “free finesse” by playing dummy’s jack.

When East's queen covered, South played low, won the next spade and let the queen of clubs ride. East took the king and led a third spade, forcing out dummy's ace. South had only eight winners, and when he led a heart, East won and cashed two spades. Down one.

South must play low from dummy on the first spade and win with the king, keeping the A-J. He next finesse in clubs. When East wins,

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The New Moon today is your chance to make resolutions about your friendships. Are you spending time with people you really want to be with? Are your friends quality people? If you want to have friends, be friendly!

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today's New Moon is at the top of your chart. This happens once a year, and it's your chance to observe your style of relating to authority – bosses, the police, courts, parents and the government. It's also an excellent day to think about long-term goals. Where do you want to be in three years?

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This might be the best day of the year to take stock of your education and your world experience. What further training or education might improve your life and your job? What travel might enrich your world? Think about this today, even briefly.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20)

(Post as March 20) The New Moon today is in the Money House that concerns debt and shared wealth. It's the best day of the year to think about how you can reduce your debt, and also to look at how much you rely on your own resources versus those of people who help you.

he can't effectively return a spade. If he leads a diamond, South wins and forces out the ace of hearts. He is sure of 10 tricks.

DAILY QUESTION

You hold:

♠ AJ2 ♥ K6

◆954♣A10953

Your partner opens one heart, you bid two clubs and he rebids two hearts. What do you say?

ANSWER: You can commit to game with your 12 good points and five-card suit. To raise the hearts would be hasty; partner may have six or more hearts but has not promised more than five. Bid two spades. If partner next bids 2NT, raise to 3NT. If he bids three clubs, bid three hearts. If he rebids three hearts, raise to four.

FRIDAY'S LA TIMES SOLUTION

Chicago White Sox fans have taken their invocation of the pope on the road, like this spectator did last month in Cleveland when facing the division rival Guardians.

The South Side savior?

The resurgent White Sox are up against the wall in the ALDS. Luckily, they know a guy: Pope Leo XIV.

BY STEPHANIE APSTEIN

For a few minutes in August, the Bishop of Rome, Vicar of Christ, Successor of the Prince of the Apostles, Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church, Sovereign of Vatican City and Servant of the Servants of God was just a 13-year-old boy named Bobby, holding up a baseball and gazing at it.

The 2026 White Sox had signed the ball for their most famous fan and sent it to him in Father Tom McCarthy's carry-on luggage, along with a handful of jerseys, pennants, bobbleheads and Sox-themed miters (better known among laymen as pope hats). Now Pope Leo XIV, the clergyman born Robert Francis Prevost in Chicago, was pawing through the box and exclaiming every time he pulled out another piece of merchandise.

"He was," McCarthy recalled last week, "like a kid on Christmas morning."

As they opened the gifts, McCarthy recounted the recent Pope Night the White Sox had held at Rate Field: the pope hat giveaway, the sign of peace in the stands, the \$14,000 check for the Midwest Augustinian Province in honor of the 14th Pope Leo. ("Why didn't you take the name John?" McCarthy quipped. "You would've been the 24th. We would've gotten an extra \$10,000!")

It was a great night, McCarthy finished.

REMO CASILLI/REUTERS
Pope Leo XIV, born in Chicago and raised in Dolton, Illinois, proudly sports White Sox merchandise in public any chance he can get.

"Yeah," the pope said. "Too bad we didn't win." The Vatican did not respond to a message seeking details of how Leo has been following his White Sox in their quest for the American League pennant, but those close to him say he certainly keeps up on their progress.

It feels right that America's pope should be a fan of America's pastime. And somehow it feels even more right that he should root for the Chicago White Sox, a team that has perhaps required more divine intervention than any other in recent years.

The 2024 White Sox lost 121 games, the most in the 125 years of MLB's modern era. They were eliminated from playoff contention on Aug. 17 that season and finished 41 games back — of fourth place.

Then they slashed payroll, to \$74 million from \$123 million. They went 10–28, a dismal .263 winning percentage, to start 2025.

But then here came the white smoke, and somehow, here came the White Sox. They went 50–74 (.403) the rest of the year, as the newly elected Leo donned a White Sox cap in St. Peter's Square. The resurrection has continued this season: The White Sox finished 84–78, good for second in the American League Central, swept the Houston Astros in the wild-card series and SEE POPE ON B9

Capitals swipe away scrappy New York

BY DANIELLE ALLENTUCK

This New York Rangers team isn't the same pushover as its predecessor. A year after finishing with the Eastern Conference's worst record, New York came to Capital One Arena on Friday off to a 4-1 start with four straight wins.

But the Washington Capitals, too, are stronger than they were a year ago. While it took some time, they eventually showed their growth, rallying to beat the Rangers, 3-1, at Capital One Arena behind goals from Timothy Liljegren and Boone Jenner.

The Capitals begin the season 3-1, including 3-0 in the Metropolitan Division.

"I thought it was a hard-fought game, not a lot of room on either side," Coach Spencer Carbery said. "Just a battle on the inside on both sides. ... They're playing well, they're defending well, and good hockey game, and so for us to get two points was good to see."

Washington will succeed this season if it can get contributions from everyone. While the Capitals don't have a true star forward, they have more depth, which means they don't have to rely on one player or line to win, as evident by Friday's victory.

The Rangers have dominated the first period this season, not allowing a goal. They did just that again, jumping out to a 1-0 SEE CAPITALS ON R10

NHL's shorter camps have not cut down sloppy starts

BY STEPHEN WHYNO Associated Press

The first three days of the earliest leaguewide start in NHL history delivered scores straight out of the 1980s.

The Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks played 6-5 and 9-7 games. The Pittsburgh Penguins routed the Philadelphia Flyers, 7-0. The Colorado Avalanche beat the Los Angeles Kings, 8-4.

"There's a lot of goals being scored, which tells you that there's some loose hockey still being played," New York Islanders Coach Peter DeBoer said Thursday.

The hockey has been sloppy, scoring is up slightly, and goaltenders are stopping the puck less than last season. But with the first 60 or so games in the books following shorter training camps and less exhibition action, there's little evidence to suggest that it has drastically altered the play on the ice compared with previous starts that come with gaps in fundamentals and the SEE NHL ON B10

MIKE DITKA | 1939-2026

Hall of Famer embodied Chicago

A revolutionary tight end, he then coached the Bears to their only Super Bowl title

BY JIM LITKE Associated Press

CHICAGO — Mike Ditka, who personified the toughness and grit of Chicago in a Hall of Fame career as a player and coach of the Bears and the leader of arguably the most dominant team in NFL history, has died. He was 86.

Ditka's family announced the death Friday in a statement.

"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."

Nicknamed “Iron Mike” as a player, Ditka helped revolutionize the tight end position, then moved to the sidelines and took over as Chicago’s coach. His 1985 team featured one of the game’s most dominant defenses ever. It also had enough outsize personalities to record a rap video, “The Super Bowl Shuffle,” and back up the boasting in the championship game three months later.

He was arguably the NFL's most recognizable — and imitated — personality during his time as Chicago's coach, with his thick but neatly groomed mustache and sweater vest with “BEARS” emblazoned across the chest. The iconic look is still mimicked by fans at Bears games decades later. That, along with his fiery, red-faced sideline tantrums, inspired the popular “Da Bears” skit on “Saturday Night Live”

during the 1980s.

After retiring as a coach, Ditka became a restaurateur, pitchman and TV personality, as well as a forceful advocate for improved medical and retirement benefits for former players.

Ditka was tough and gruff, the quintessential Chicago Bear. He did everything from order off the menu to knock defensive backs on their butts with a growl. His adopted hometown reveled in every minute.

"When I got to Chicago in the summer of 1985, Mike Ditka and the Chicago Bears were king," former president Barack Obama wrote on X. "Coach Ditka set the tone for a team that was punishing, dominant, and fun — and the city loved him for it. I'm thinking of the Ditka family and Bears fans everywhere on the

NASCAR community remembers, hails Busch

Austin Dillon also spoke at the one-hour ceremony.

BY STEVE REED Associated Press

CONCORD, N.C. — The NASCAR community and more than 10,000 race fans celebrated the life of Kyle Busch during an uplifting ceremony Friday night at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Busch's widow, Samantha Busch, spoke at the free event and shared memories of their life together during an emotional 10-minute speech. But it was 11-year-son Brexton, a budding racer, who stole the show with a burnout on the track's front stretch in his father's No. 8 Richard Childress Racing Cup Series car before climbing on the roof and honoring his dad by doing his traditional bow with a checkered flag.

"I don't want to feel like we are putting a period on [his life] today," Samantha Busch said. "This is not the end of Kyle's story. His story continues every time we give a young racer a chance, share something he taught us or share with the next generation what made [him] unforgettable."

Busch died unexpectedly in May from hemorrhagic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation after complications from bacterial pneumonia led to sepsis, according to the former NASCAR star's death certificate. He was 41.

Friday night was about remembering the good times.

THE DAY IN SPORTS

Samantha Busch talked about how happy Kyle was at the end of his career — despite not winning many races during one stretch — because he loved being a father and raising Brexton and 4-year-old daughter Lennix.

She shared memories of spending nights at dirt tracks across the country, being exhausted late at night following a race while Brexton ran around with his friends covered in dirt and grease.

Those, she said, are the memories she will cherish the most, calling it their happiest times.

Kurt Busch, Kyle's older brother and former Cup Series champion, shared stories, memories and funny moments about the driver fondly known as "Rowdy." Christopher Bell, Noah Gragson, Daniel Suárez, Kyle Larson and

“Even at a young age, he wanted to do everything better than me,” Kurt Busch said. “It was tough to beat him on the track, even though I had six years on him.”

After Kurt Busch won his first Cup Series pole at Darlington in 2001, he was asked by reporters about his little brother who was winning races in lower-level series across the country.

“I said back then, ‘You think I’m good, you just wait until Kyle gets here,’” Kurt Busch said.

Busch's 234 race wins across NASCAR's top three national series are the most of any driver in history, and he is considered a certain first ballot Hall of Famer.

Most of his success came at Joe Gibbs Racing. Team owner Joe Gibbs recalled Busch's fiery personality while he was driving for him.

Earlier in Busch's career following a race in Loudon, New Hampshire, the Hall of Fame NFL coach was eavesdropping on his driver's postrace interview after he had finished second. After Busch finished up, Gibbs thought to himself, "Well, that wasn't too bad" thinking the emotional Busch had kept his emotions in check.

A few seconds later, Busch walked over to Gibbs and pointed his finger at his chest and said slowly, word by word, "Your Cars. Suck."

The NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte on Friday also unveiled a new exhibit: “Kyle Busch: Honoring A Legacy” honoring Busch’s 25-year professional racing career.

The exhibit features Busch's No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota Camry from his 2015 NASCAR Cup Series championship season, along with videos and images highlighting his achievements and influence on the sport.

Samantha Busch was given the choice of selecting a car for the exhibit and picked her husband's No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing M&M's car, which he raced for his first Cup Series championship.

"When I look at this car, I don't just see a championship," she said. "I see everything Kyle overcame to earn it."

Trump will not travel to Alabama-Georgia

President Donald Trump (R), previously scheduled to attend Saturday's Alabama-Georgia football game, canceled those plans.

The White House and the Tuscaloosa Police Department confirmed the decision Friday, coming in the wake of weather forecasts calling for severe weather in the area as the remnants of Hurricane Isaias pass through.

The game featuring two undefeated heavyweights in the No. 2 Bulldogs and the No. 6 Crimson Tide will still draw plenty of attention, with or without the president in attendance.

North Carolina State's former director of sports medicine faces a bond of more than \$2 million on charges of sexually abusing former Wolfpack athletes.

A Wake County grand jury indicted Robert Murphy Jr. on Sept. 14 on nine felony counts of sexual contact under pretext of medical treatment and 23 counts of sexual battery, a misdemeanor. He was arrested in Florida on Sept. 23 on out-of-state fugitive warrants from North Carolina.

Authorities brought Murphy to North Carolina on Thursday, and a magistrate set Murphy's bond at \$2.25 million, according to online court records. Murphy appeared virtually in court with his next hearing scheduled for Nov. 2.

Murphy was originally accused of misconduct in civil lawsuits, first from a single athlete in August 2022, then from 31 in a complaint filed earlier this year. The criminal charges are tied to 14 victims covering allegations ranging from October 2016 to the fall of 2021.

Murphy's attorneys have denied any wrongdoing by their client. ...

The College Sports Commission is looking into possible rules violations at between five and 10 Power Four 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 spending cap that a school can share with its players, along with third-party payments to players that allow them to circumvent the cap.

PRO BASKETBALL Knicks call off talks for Towns, Hart deals

The New York Knicks are concentrating on their NBA title defense now and will worry about contract talks later — meaning Karl-Anthony Towns and Josh Hart will have to wait on the new deals they're hoping for.

New York said in a statement that it will not be negotiating extensions until “later in the season,” with the organization’s “entire focus” on preparing for the season.

The Knicks won their first NBA championship since 1973 in June, but owner James Dolan said shortly afterward the team would avoid spending enough to trigger the penalties that come when a team reaches the second apron of the salary cap.

New York re-signed most of its important free agents, but negotiations on extensions with Towns, Hart and key reserve Deuce McBride haven't gone far.

Colandrea has become a dual threat, rushing for a career-high 108 yards in last week's win over Maryland, but he hasn't faced a defense as stout as Indiana's (237.8 yards per game, 10.8 points per game) this season.

Smart, a former national title-winning defensive coordinator at Alabama, said the Crimson Tide (5-0, 3-0) — which has the lone ranked win of the two teams, last week's dismantling of then-No. 16 Mississippi State — will present a huge challenge.

Father, uncles of Texas QB shed light on wisdom that has helped shape him

BY KEVIN SHERRINGTON Dallas Morning News

DALLAS — Before the first family of football had so much as planted its tree, there was only Archie. He was plenty on his own. Consider when he played for Mississippi against Alabama in 1969 and amassed a total of 540 yards, becoming the first college player to pass for 300 yards and rush for 100 in an era when quarterbacks mostly just handled the luggage.

Archie might have gone down as the best of the Mannings had he not had the misfortune to start his 13-year NFL career with the New Orleans Saints, who stunted his growth. In three of his first five seasons, he led the league in sacks, including a whopping 49 in 1975.

No telling how high the number might have gone had he not been so good at running for his life.

Archie's three sons — Cooper, Peyton and Eli — didn't spend much time reflecting on their father's exploits during a panel discussion Wednesday night at the Cotton Bowl Classic Keynote in the Wyly Theatre. Archie's lessons — handed down to his grandchildren, including the one in Austin — were rarely about football. He had a different set of priorities, shaped, in part, by a tragedy of his youth.

First, a note to the reader: Going into Texas-Oklahoma, the gist of this article was supposed to be a comparison of the Männings as quarterbacks. But, as will happen, a better story cut to the front of the line. For the sake of the argument, let's rank 'em and get it out of the way. Peyton holds a comfortable lead over Eli, followed by Archie. Arch has yet to enter the conversation, though he possesses attributes of all three.

Also, if I was reading this right, one of his uncles might even have suggested Wednesday that another year at Texas might not be such a bad thing.

Anyway, if you're only telling one story about the Mannings, the one you need to hear is the effect the patriarch has had on his heirs to this day. If you've wondered why Arch calls his grandfather his role model, consider the testimony of Archie's sons.

Eli called his father “kind,” “courteous” and “engaging,” and those were just the observations of his interactions with fans.

"He was our dad, our hero, our role model and favorite quarterback," Peyton said, "kind of all wrapped into one."

The first lesson Archie imparted was the gift of presence. After retiring at 35 in 1984, he had opportunities to coach, but Cooper, Peyton and Eli were 10, 8 and 3, respectively. He stayed home in New Orleans instead.

He showed up.

"I could see him in the stands," Peyton said. "It was very important to me."

Archie loved football, loved the lessons it taught about sacrifice and teamwork and how to handle winning and losing, but he didn't force it on his boys. He didn't tell them what they did right or wrong on the way home from a game. He told them what was important.

“Told us he loved us and he was proud of us after a game, whether we won or lost,” Peyton said. “He lost his father when he was in college.

"Had a huge impact on his parenting philosophy."

Elisha Archibald “Buddy” Manning Jr. died Aug. 16, 1969, two months shy of his son’s big game against the Crimson Tide. Facing financial problems and the effects of a stroke, Buddy took his own life with a shotgun. Archie found his father in a bedroom. He burned the mattress and did what else he could to keep his mother and sister from coming home and seeing what he had.

He offered to quit school and go to work to support the family, but his mother would have none of it. She had always been his biggest fan. He would go on to create a generation of them.

Archie is perhaps more famous now as the father and grandfather of quarterbacks than he ever was as a quarterback himself. Universally regarded as one of the greatest gentlemen ever to play the game. Let's just say his loving sons are cut from a different cloth.

Peyton and Eli, who provide their take on “Monday Night Football,” are as ubiquitous now as they were in uniform. Cooper, a former wide receiver whose football career was cut short by a diagnosis of spinal stenosis as a freshman at Mississippi, has multiple gigs, too.

They are just as clever and quick in person. Such as when the moderator, Sam Acho, asked Peyton why he went to Tennessee instead of his father's alma mater.

"He didn't get into Ole Miss," Eli interrupted.

Archie took a lot of heat from Oxford's faithful when Peyton chose Tennessee. They wanted to know why in the world he didn't make his talented son choose Mississippi, a potential game changer for the program. He told them it was his son's decision, not his, and he wouldn't question it. His boys took the lesson to heart, as evidenced when Arch picked Texas.

For the record, Peyton loved his four years at Tennessee. Said his senior year prepared him for what was to come in Indianapolis. Made him physically and mentally tougher. Seemed like he was trying to send someone a message, if you ask me.

From the looks of it, Arch could use another year in Austin. Argue the lure of the NFL all you want. The Mannings do things differently.

When Acho asked what Arch's father does to try to block out the noise that comes with being a Manning at one of the nation's marquee programs, Cooper said, "There's not a good answer." As is the case in most of life's trials, he said, he asks himself what Archie would do.

Lately he has had other inspirations as well. One of his ventures is a golf podcast, "We Need a Fourth," with former ESPN broadcaster Kenny Mayne and Brian Baumgartner, or Kevin from "The Office." Their guest this week was J.J. Spaun. After finishing second to Rory McIlroy at the Players Championship in a playoff last year, Spaun told them the reason he lost was because he was content to be runner-up.

Before the U.S. Open three months later, he took the advice of his San Diego State coach, who told him, “I give you permission to fail.”

“Even this week,” Cooper told the crowd at the Wyly, “I shared that with Arch. I said: ‘You have permission to fail. Go ahead and rip it. You know, let ’er rip. Go get ’em.

“Whatever frees you up to be your best.”

Frankly, I'm not sure that's what Archie would have told him. Or Steve Sarkisian, for that matter. But, whatever happens Saturday, and in the weeks and years to come, I'm fairly certain the Mannings will hang together. One of the old man's lessons, from one generation of Mannings to the next.

The White Sox have a season that needs to be saved. Luckily, they know a guy.

White Sox fans have flocked to Pope Leo XIV's public outings, supporting him and his favorite team.
ALESSANDRA TARANTINO/AP

POPE FROM B7

have split their first four games of the AL Division Series with the Cleveland Guardians. The teams will play a decisive Game 5 on Saturday night in Cleveland as the White Sox look to advance to their first AL Championship Series since they won the World Series in 2005.

Aboard the papal flight to Paris from Rome earlier this month, Leo refused to confirm or deny divine intervention for the team's improvement. He grinned mischievously and said, "No comment." Then he commented anyway: "Great things happen in Chicago," he said.

People close to the pope report that sports fit neatly into his belief system.

"As someone who's kind of grounded in Augustinian roots, he really values community, and I think that that's what sports does," said Father Robert Hagan, who was mentored by Prevost when Hagan was a novice. "I think that's what Chicago is experiencing with the White Sox — it brings people together."

But they also report that he really just loves the White Sox. Leo is a classic Chicago sports fan: He yelled “Da Bears” from the popemobile, he has talked-trash about the Cubs in at least two languages, and friends, said Sister Thérèse DelGenio in an interview, have noticed that he sometimes logs on to video calls in a

Bears T-shirt.

"It humanizes him," said Cardinal Blase Cupich, the archbishop of Chicago. "I think that people really do find that endearing."

Elise Ann Allen, the pope's Rome-based biographer, said in an interview that the young Bobby learned to navigate a home life in which his mother, Mildred, was a die-hard Cubs fan and his father, Louis, cheered for the St. Louis Cardinals.

"He said you had to be accept-"

ing of others and maintain an open mind, because if not, you wouldn't get dinner," Allen said.

Cupich tries to straddle a similar line, declining to choose between the Sox and the Cubs. "Living in Chicago, I have to be a Chicago fan," he said. "It's safer." This is something of a cop-out, he admitted. So does Leo get credit for picking a side?

Cupich laughed. No way, he said: "He doesn't have to live here!"

Still, it was always the White

Sox for young Bobby. He grew up in Dolton, Illinois, 15 miles south of Comiskey Park, when Luis Aparicio was starring on the South Side. On summer breaks from St. Augustine Seminary High School near Saugatuck, Michigan, and later from Villanova University, he would catch Sox games in the cheap seats with friends. He usually served as the designated driver.

When Prevost worked as a missionary in Peru in the 1990s, his then-roommate Father John

Lydon recalled, their rabbit-ear televisions lacked access to American sports, so Prevost became a passionate fan of the local soccer team, Club Alianza Lima.

“It was the team of the people,” Lydon said, contrasting it with Club Universitario de Deportes, which was considered the squad of the elites. The priests watched games in their living room, and Prevost “got into it,” Lydon recalled, jumping up from the couch and yelling to celebrate goals.

Later, when Prevost was prior general of the Augustinians, NPR's Scott Detrow reported, he took part in an exercise in which he had to paint symbols reflecting his identity. He drew an American flag, Chicago's Sears Tower, the Augustinian emblem, a Christmas tree ... and the White Sox logo.

He attended a handful of games every year with Ed Schmit, a friend from when both worked at a Chicago Catholic school, and when the White Sox made the 2005 World Series, Schmit called Prevost immediately. After Leo's election, news outlets dug up photos of them together at Game 1, which made the pontiff chuckle — but not just for the reasons you might think.

"You know," he has told people, "I was also at Game 2."

He has made no promises about visiting a potential 2026 World Series game, but he is doing his part to help the White Sox get there: On the eve of the playoffs, team owner Jerry Reinsdorf was going through his mail when he noticed a large envelope, postmarked Vatican City.

“It is my hope that the White Sox will continue to foster bonds of friendship and solidarity among people, and thus bear hopeful witness to the possibility of living and working together in peace,” Leo wrote. “With these sentiments, I willingly invoke the Almighty’s abundant blessings upon you and your loved ones.”

“Imagine a Jewish kid from Brooklyn getting a letter from the pope,” Reinsdorf told reporters. “I’m going to convert.”

“By the way,” said Brooks Boyer, the White Sox’s head of marketing and a lifelong Catholic, “the Vatican has the coolest letterhead you could imagine.”

If the White Sox win the World Series, Boyer joked, maybe they will top the traditional White House visit with a trip to the Vatican. If they do, perhaps Leo will show them around the papal archives, where he stores many of the gifts he has received, including many of the contents of that care package.

But not all of them, said McCarthy. A few of those gifts went straight into the pope's personal apartment, where Bobby can see them anytime he wants.

Jenner, Liljegren key Capitals win over Rangers

CAPITALS FROM B7

lead as Alexis Lafrenière scored on the power play.

But in the second period, the Capitals added pressure, with Liljegren scoring from the point to tie the game up just over six minutes into the period. It was the first goal in a Capitals jersey for Liljegren, who was acquired in March from the San Jose Sharks and is now taking on a bigger role with Matt Roy sidelined.

“I feel pretty good,” Liljegren said. “Just kind of try to keep my game the same, try to be a steady defenseman back there and follow up as I did there on the goal whenever I can, but you know, defense first."

A few minutes later, the Rangers took a major blow when goalie Igor Shesterkin had to be helped off the ice after his leg appeared to hit the post. Shesterkin, who earlier this season was the first goalie in Rangers history to score a goal, has been a major part of New York's hot start.

With backup goalie Dylan Garand now in, goalie coach Scott Murray radioed a scouting report to the coaches, who then passed it on to players. They were quick studies, taking the lead later in the second period after a failed icing attempt. Boone Jenner capitalized on a loose puck in the middle of the zone, sending it to the back of the net to score his first goal with the team.

Jenner, one of the Capitals' four offseason additions, signed a four-year, \$23 million contract in July. He said it's been easy transitioning to the Capitals, in large part because of the character they have.

"It's been a great group to be a part of," Jenner said. "Easy for myself and the new guys to come in and feel welcomed in here. I think we all want to find our role right away, and I think we've done that."

The Capitals maintained the lead throughout the third period, closing the door on the Rangers, especially in the final two minutes after New York pulled its goalie. Tom Wilson added an empty-netter with one second to go, his second goal of the season.

“That was a hard game,” said goalie Logan Thompson, who made 21 saves. “They came out hard tonight. They’ve been playing well, so I thought we matched them well, especially when they grabbed an early goal. I felt like we stuck with it and stuck to the game plan and good things happened tonight."

Note: Matt Roy, who missed his second game with a lower body injury, is day-to-day still but skated on Friday morning for the first time since suffering the injury in Saturday's loss to the Tampa Bay Lighting.

NHL's shorter training camps have not cut down on sloppy starts

NHL FROM B7

occasional blowout.

“I think it’s been like that for the last 100 years, so I was not expecting this year to be any different,” Utah Mammoth Coach Andre Tourigny said.

What the numbers say

The first 65 games featured 405 goals — led by Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard with six. New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin even has one from shooting and scoring into an empty net.

That's an average of 6.24, up a tick from the 6.23 over the first 60 games a year ago. Through Thursday, power plays were clicking at a 20.8 percent success rate, compared with 19.7 percent, led by the Columbus Blue Jackets, Winnipeg Jets and Mammoth at 40 percent apiece.

“Maybe less time to practice special teams,” said Utah’s Dylan Guenther, who leads the league with six power-play points. “We had a pretty big emphasis on that in camp because we did a lot of special teams, so it’s good that a little bit of that is paying off.”

The average save percentage so far was .891. Netminders combined for an .896 last season, the lowest in the NHL since 1994, and it's not getting any easier for hockey's masked men.

There are a similar amount of giveaways, more than 32 a game, and plenty of odd-man rushes to be found.

“Teams can score, like there's so much skill,” New Jersey Devils defenseman Brenden Dillon said. “Teams have so much skill, so on the defensive side, all it takes is one stick being in the wrong spot or one guy being out of position, and teams are going to make you pay.”

What changes

It is an annual debate every fall how to get the most out of camp, Devils Coach Sheldon Keefe said, which leads to plenty of teaching early in the regu-

lar season.

"Do we roll out everything and then introduce it, but then you don't get good at anything?" Keefe said. "Or do you just roll out a few things at a time and try to really grasp onto that and then you build out from there? You have to do that even more so in the shortened camp. You've got to kind of prioritize a few key areas you focus on, and then you just keep kind of building it out as you go."

Player fitness is not a concern in this day and age when summer skates are commonplace. It may take several more weeks to determine whether fewer pre-season games contributed to any sort of increase in injuries.

More games are slipping away from teams with big deficits, though. There have been 28 decided by three or more goals, a little more than usual.

“Everybody’s pretty sharp pretty early,” Islanders captain Bo Horvat said. “You get the odd game here and there where it gets a little sloppy. But I think obviously play will pick up, and things will get a little bit crispier as the season goes on."

Teammate Kyle Palmieri said the Islanders discussed taking advantage of some of the sloppiness around the league, hoping that being more disciplined in the fall can pay dividends. Dillon understands coaches probably would have liked another week or two to iron some things out, but there isn't much clamoring to go back to the old ways.

“It’s nice having a shorter camp,” Guenther said. “I’m not going to complain about that.”

Good thing, then, because this is the NHL's new normal. As part of that, everyone seems to acknowledge this is how early-season fall hockey goes — a long way from playoff races in the spring and the lockdown, tight-checking intensity of the Stanley Cup chase.

"I think there's a lot of clean up to do from everybody," Tourigny said. "At this point, I don't think there's any team who's perfectly perfect on anything."

WNBA PLAYOFFS

Atlanta caps off sweep to reach finals

DREAM 85, LIBERTY 83

BY DOUG FEINBERG Associated Press

NEW YORK — Angel Reese scored 22 points, Rhyne Howard added 21, and the Atlanta Dream beat the New York Liberty, 85-83, on Friday night to advance to the WNBA Finals for the first time since 2013.

The fourth-seeded Dream completed the three-game sweep of the Liberty and hasn't lost in the postseason this year. Atlanta will face the winner of the Las Vegas Aces-Golden State Valkyries series when the WNBA Finals begin on Saturday, Oct. 17.

The Dream hadn't reached the semifinals since 2018 before this season. Now, it will try to secure the franchise's first championship with four more victories.

Atlanta led 83-81 with 17.7 seconds left after turning the ball over, giving New York one last chance. But Breanna Stewart missed a contested layup with nine seconds left. DeWanna Bonner hit two free throws with 6.2 seconds left to seal the win.

Reese, who was the league's defensive player of the year, came to Atlanta this offseason in a trade from the Chicago Sky and proved to be a key reason the Dream advanced to the championship round.

She picked up some of the scoring slack that was left as Atlanta was once again without leading scorer Allisha Gray, who has been sidelined with a finger injury sustained in Game 1. She missed Game 2 and warmed up before Friday night's game, but was ruled out about an hour before the tip. She was on the bench cheering for her teammates in a Howard jersey.

Howard got the Dream going early with 11 points in the first quarter. Reese had 10 in that period, including hitting two three-pointers.

Things got chippy in the second quarter. After Isobel Borlase scored twice in a row, Sabrina Ionescu went to set a screen on her and was called for the offensive foul. She and Reese then started jawing with each other before being broken up by officials. A few minutes later, Jones blocked Reese's shot and the two bumped chests while talking trash. The referees stepped in and gave both a technical foul.

New York was able to get within 40-39 late in the half before Reese scored the final four points of the second quarter to give Atlanta a 44-39 lead.

The Dream scored the first seven points of the third quarter to take a 51-39 lead. New York responded with a 16-4 run, including scoring the first 10 points in the outburst to take its first lead since 2-0 on a tip-in by Jones. The Liberty led 68-66 after the third quarter.

Atlanta was down four early in the fourth quarter before scoring the next eight points to take a 75-71 lead with 4:55 left as they held New York without a basket for over six minutes. The teams went back and forth before Atlanta moved ahead 83-79 with a minute to go.

Jonquel Jones hit a layup to make it a two-point game, but it wasn't enough. Jones and Stewart finished with 26 points apiece.

The loss ended a frustrating season for New York, which returned most of the same core that won the franchise's first championship two years ago. The team struggled for consistency this season and finished as the No. 8 seed in the playoffs. They knocked off the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx in the first round, but struggled against the Dream.

NOTES

Commanders' Quinn makes it official: Daniels is back

FROM NEWS SERVICES

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, who missed the last two games because of a dislocated left elbow, will start against the visiting New York Giants on Sunday, Coach Dan Quinn said Friday.

Quinn also ruled out wide receiver Stefon Diggs because of a hamstring injury and said fellow wideout Terry McLaurin's status is to be determined after he looked good in his return to practice Friday from a hamstring injury.

Daniels, 25, hurt his non-throwing elbow on the last play of the first half in a loss to the host Dallas Cowboys in Week 2. He traveled with the Commanders (1-3) to London last week for their 30-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts but did not suit up.

Veteran Marcus Mariota started against the Colts but suffered a knee injury. Rookie Athan Kaliakmanis replaced him, throwing for 186 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

Daniels has been practicing with a brace, and he will keep it on against the Giants (3-1).

Quinn also said that starting right guard Sam Cosmi, who has missed two games because of a concussion, and running back Rachaaad White (shoulder) will play against New York.

•RAVENS: Baltimore ruled out quarterback Lamar Jackson and edge rusher Trey Hendrickson for its game at the Atlanta Falcons because of injuries.

Tyler Huntley, who is 5-6 in 11 starts for Baltimore over the past five years, will take Jackson's place Sunday night against Atlanta.

Jackson didn't practice this week after hurting his ankle in the first half of Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. Coach Jesse Minter said he didn't know yet about Jackson's status for Week 6 at the Cleveland Browns.

Hendrickson, the four-time Pro Bowler in his first season with Baltimore, didn't practice this week and will miss his second straight game because of a finger injury. Mike Green will start again in his place.

•BEARS: Quarterback Caleb

Williams returned to practice on a limited basis and is questionable for Chicago's game at the Green Bay Packers.

Williams has missed the past two games since injuring his right hamstring against the Minnesota Vikings on Sept. 20. Bears Coach Ben Johnson indicated Monday that Williams wouldn't be available this week, but that was before the quarterback returned to practice.

In other injury news, the Bears ruled out running back Kyle Monangai (thumb/toe) and linebacker Keyshaun Elliott (quadriceps) for Sunday's game. Defensive back Kyler Gordon (calf), linebacker Noah Sewell (Achilles), defensive lineman Shemar Turner (knee) and Williams are questionable.

- EAGLES: Philadelphia won't have running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver DeVonta Smith against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London because of hamstring injuries.

Barkley hurt his right hamstring early in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Rams and didn't practice all week. Smith also didn't practice and will miss his second straight game.

The Eagles added quarterback Jalen Hurts to the injury report with a calf issue, though he was a full participant at practice. Philadelphia later released veteran Andy Dalton, meaning Tanner McKee and rookie Cole Payton will back up Hurts.

•JETS: New York ruled out running back Breece Hall, wide receiver Adonai Mitchell and left guard Dylan Parham for its game against the Cleveland Browns.

Coach Aaron Glenn said he likes “exactly where they’re trending” in their recovery from injuries, but the Jets will be without three offensive starters as they try to snap a three-game skid.

Hall missed last week's loss at the Bears with a quadriceps injury that occurred the week before. It will also be the second game in a row that Parham will be sidelined with a knee injury. Mitchell will miss a third straight game after hurting a finger during practice.

•VIKINGS: Minnesota listed its top two wide receivers, Justin

Jefferson and Jordan Addison, as questionable and ruled out left tackle Christian Darrisaw to face the New Orleans Saints.

Jefferson practiced on a limited basis after spraining his ankle Sept. 27 and sitting out last week's game against the Miami Dolphins. Addison was also a limited participant with a mild hamstring strain he suffered in the game last week.

The Vikings also listed starting right tackle Brian O'Neill as questionable with a knee injury that limited him all week in practice. Darrisaw did not practice this week after entering the concussion protocol during the Miami game, but Coach Kevin O'Connell said he was progressing and on track to return after next week's bye.

•SAINTS: New Orleans will be without starting linebacker Kaden Elliss (calf) and backup edge rusher Anfernee Jennings (knee) against Minnesota for the second straight game.

Running back Alvin Kamara (back) and safety Julian Blackmon (shoulder) were listed as questionable after limited work

in practice.

- RAIDERS: Running back Ashton Jeanty is questionable for Las Vegas's game at the New England Patriots with ankle and foot injuries, while wide receiver Jalen Nailor (concussion) and backup offensive lineman Trey Zuhn III (knee) will not play, Coach Klint Kubiak said.

Right guard Jackson Powers-Johnson (groin) is ready to return to action, but Kubiak didn't guarantee he will get his starting job back over Caleb Rogers.

- RAMS: Aaron Donald's back is feeling much better after a week of rest and treatment, and he plans to play for Los Angeles against the Buffalo Bills on Monday night after sitting out one game.

Donald's first injury setback during his comeback from a $2 \frac{1}{2}$ -year retirement does not appear to be serious, the 10-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle said.

- CHARGERS: Los Angeles placed tackle Rashawn Slater on injured reserve a day after he underwent surgery on his right ankle.

MIKE DITKA | 1939-2026

Hall of Fame tight end and title-winning coach was a quintessential Chicagoan

"It was more than a team. It was a team of characters that had character that played for a crazy man, who let [them] be crazy and had fun doing it and don't apologize for it ever," Mike Ditka, center, said of his time coaching the hard-charging, personality-filled Chicago Bears.
PHIL SANDLIN/AP

Mike Ditka (89) helped evolve the tight end position in the 1960s into more than a mainly blocking role.

DITKA FROM B7

passing of a legend."

Still revered as “Da Coach” and ringmaster of the 1985 Bears, one of the most dominant teams — and perhaps the zaniest Super Bowl winner — in league history, Ditka was enshrined in the College and Pro Football Halls of Fame, and the Bears said during a ceremony in 2013 that his “No. 89” jersey will be the last one retired by the team.

“Player. Coach. Legend,” the Bears wrote in a tribute on social media. “Mike Ditka embodied the spirit of Chicago and will be deeply missed.”

Ditka was the first person enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame who had won Super Bowls as a player, assistant coach and head coach. Tom Flores, inducted in 2021, is the only other person to accomplish the feat.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Ditka “epitomized football over so many years” during his career.

"He brought intensity, authenticity and an unmistakable personality to everything he did," Goodell said in a statement. "As a Hall of Fame player, Super Bowl-winning coach with his beloved and iconic Bears, and as a broadcaster, Mike served as an ambassador for the game and inspired generations of fans. Through his work with the Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund, Mike was a champion for taking care of those who helped build our game. We extend our deepest condolences to Diana and the Ditka family."

Becoming "Iron Mike"

Ditka was born in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, the son of a welder who changed the family name from Dyczko. He grew up in nearby Aliquippa — which also later produced fellow Pro Football Hall of Famers Ty Law and Darrelle Revis — close to the coal-mining and steel-manufacturing plants that dotted the western part of the state, a big, talented, three-sport athlete and all-American at Pittsburgh whose bruising style made his first nickname, “Iron Mike,” a good fit.

"When our players see Mike Ditka's name, I want them to understand how he competed," Pittsburgh Coach Pat Narduzzi said in a statement. "He gave everything he had and expected the same from the guys beside him. That's Pitt. He showed us that tough people find a way through tough times and taught us to fight for the names on the front and back of our jerseys."

Selected fifth overall by flinty Chicago owner George Halas in the 1961 draft, Ditka went on to rookie of the year honors, multiple Pro Bowl trips and the 1963 NFL Championship. He and the Baltimore Colts' John Mackey changed the tight end position and offensive schemes forever. He was a battering ram of a blocker, but Ditka was just as likely to catch a short pass and pinball through an entire secondary or outrace a lone safety on a deep touchdown throw.

He left Chicago in 1966, playing briefly for the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys.

Evolving into "Da Coach"

Ditka moved to the sideline in 1973 as an assistant to the revered Tom Landry and stayed with the Cowboys for eight years, including winning the Super Bowl during the 1977 season, before returning to a hero's welcome in Chicago as coach in 1982.

Ditka's return to the Bears lasted 10 tumultuous years, including five straight NFC Central titles, the Super Bowl win, a DUI conviction, a heart attack, a long-running feud with defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan and, finally, a new nickname — “Da Coach.”

To Hall of Fame linebacker Mike Singletary, the seeds of what was to come were planted in Ditka's first meeting with the team. He laid out his vision, saying Chicago would be in the Super Bowl in three years — and many of the players in the room would not be around for it.

"When I first heard him when he walked in the room, to me

Coach Ditka had the opportunity to be the greatest coach of all time because he had the fire," Singletary said at the Bears' 100th anniversary celebration in June 2019. "I don't know how George Halas coached. But I can imagine that the fire and intensity and passion that Coach Ditka exuded that first day set the tone for exactly what he said: 'Three years from now, we're going to be in the Super Bowl.' And that was 1982. In '85, we were there, and it was because of that vision."

Leading a colorful bunch

The public beefs with Ryan mirrored the behind-the-scenes battles that Ditka waged trying to contain a team bristling with outsize personalities.

"It was more than a team," Ditka once said. "It was a team of characters that had character that played for a crazy man, who let [them] be crazy and had fun doing it and don't apologize for it ever. I wouldn't want to be one of these suits walking around on the sideline today.

"I have no desire to be that. I was what I was, and they were what they were, and damn, it was fun."

It wasn't until two dozen players recorded “The Super Bowl Shuffle” — an audacious rap-styled video released three months ahead of the January 1986 title game — that the rest of the football world wondered whether Ditka was losing his grip.

His players never did.

"We call him 'Sybil' after that girl in the movie," quarterback Jim McMahon once explained. "You know, the one that had all those personalities. Mike will be calm one minute, then throw a clipboard the next. People don't understand that, but we do."

The Bears demolished the New England Patriots, 46-10, in the Super Bowl, but Ditka often said he regretted having McMahon and defensive tackle William "The Refrigerator" Perry run for touchdowns instead of Walter Payton, Chicago's loyal and long-suffering running back.

Ryan departed for a head coaching job in Philadelphia soon after. While the Bears continued to be a contender for most of the next five years, a 5-11 season prompted Ditka's departure in 1992.

Tenure in New Orleans

After a five-year absence, he returned to coaching with the New Orleans Saints but failed to revive the franchise. His tenure with the team might be best remembered for the trade before the 1999 NFL draft when he dealt a package of eight draft picks — including each one the Saints had that year and two of its first three selections in 2000

— to Washington to move up from 12th overall to fifth so New Orleans could select running back Ricky Williams.

After a miserable 1999 season ended with a 3-13 record — Ditka's worst as either a player or coach — he left the sidelines for good.

"We proudly honor his chapters as a head coach in New Orleans," the Saints said in a statement. "While his time leading our franchise on the field was brief in longevity, his presence left an indelible mark on our organization. Mike approached his tenure with the Saints with the same bold authenticity and relentless drive that defined his entire career."

Post-football career

Ditka's face and demeanor were so familiar by then that a second act became an easy segue. He began building a stable of restaurants and appeared as himself in TV sitcoms from "Cheers" to "Third Rock from the Sun," as well as shows such as "L.A. Law."

He also stayed close to the game as an NFL analyst and game-day show personality — first at NBC after his Bears tenure, and then at CBS and ESPN after his time with the Saints.

“Mike Ditka was larger than life, an iconic football figure whose presence commanded attention the moment he walked into a room,” ESPN vice president and executive producer Seth Markman said in a statement. “He was fearless and candid on the air, bringing the same authenticity and conviction that defined his football career.

"For those of us who worked with him at ESPN, we were able to experience another side of Mike: a kind, generous and genuinely caring colleague who treated everyone with warmth and respect, whether he knew you or not."

Ditka's high-profile status also made him an effective advocate to secure improved health and retirement benefits for former players.

His name also circulated for years in Illinois political circles. Though he never ran for office, Ditka described himself as a staunch conservative and was mentioned several times as a possible Republican candidate, including a congressional race against then-state senator Obama for the U.S. Senate.

“Mike Ditka,” ESPN NFL host Chris Berman said in a statement, “was a national treasure.”

Arlington County sues to block Trump from building his arch

BY LIAM BOWMAN, TEO ARMUS AND DAN DIAMOND

Arlington County's local elected body sued to block construction of President Donald Trump's planned triumphal arch on Thursday, arguing that administration officials bypassed a key review process in their push to begin work on the structure.

The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Virginia, argues that the Trump administration failed to adequately evaluate potential en-

The Trump administration plans to build the arch on an island in the Potomac River that is officially part of D.C. but within a few hundred meters of Arlington, home to about 240,000 people, the Pentagon and several other federal agencies.

The lawsuit alleges that the National Park Service completed only a “cursory” review of the arch project in violation of the National Environmental Policy Act, which mandates that federal agencies carefully review the impacts of major projects and consider reasonable alternatives.

Policy aims to help Reagan National coordinate with Marine One activity

BY LIAM SCOTT

Following a safety incident involving communication issues between President Donald Trump's Marine One helicopter and Reagan National Airport in August, a new protocol has been set up to make sure air traffic controllers are notified that the president's helicopter is about to take off, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Under the old policy, Marine One was supposed to give air traffic controllers at National Airport a three-minute warning

before taking off, which allows the controllers to clear the airspace and give the helicopter an unimpeded route to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.

Under the new policy, Marine One still has to give that three-minute warning, according to the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment. But now a separate entity, the National Capital Region Coordination Center, also is supposed to notify the airport's air traffic control tower before the president's helicopter takes off. The coordination center oversees airspace security in the D.C. area.

The arrangement is intended to create a backstop in the event of future communication issues between Marine One and National, which is also known as DCA, they said.

Moore, Trump and a \$3.7 billion fight

Governor, president are in a spat over submarine deal

BY TINASHE CHINGARANDE Baltimore Sun

For Gov. Wes Moore (D), the political payoff from his public dispute with President Donald Trump (R) over Tuesday's Anduril event in Sparrows Point may be limited. And the fight over who gets credit — and who was allowed to speak — is unlikely to resonate with many Maryland voters, political analysts said.

Cornell allegations spark march to White House

Demonstration was one of dozens across the country to support the victim

BY SOPHIA SOLANO

Hundreds of demonstrators gathered on the National Mall on Thursday evening in response to rape allegations at Cornell University.

The gathering was one of dozens of rallies, vigils and walkouts across the country that day in the wake of the lawsuit brought last month by the case's "Jane Doe" against the university and seven students accused of raping her. The events were organized under the banner #StopSexualViolence: From the Frat House to the White House. The D.C. demonstration ended in a march to the executive mansion.

In the dimming shadow of the Washington Monument, attendees, including more than 100 students from George Washington University, held signs with sayings including “Abolish Greek Life Now” and “What about their futures?” What about

mine? I was 14."

Featured speakers, including Dani Bensky, a survivor of the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, shared personal stories of abuse and discussed what they said is a systemic lack of accountability at universities — and in every branch of government.

“It’s bigger than one campus,” Bensky said. “It’s bigger than one political party. We are in a moment of reckoning with the abuse of power in this country. We cannot keep confusing institutional reputation with institutional integrity.”

General Assembly marks 250 years of governance

"Virginians are not asking us to agree on everything," Gov. Abagail Spanberger said, while imploring lawmakers to find common ground.

BY MICHAEL MARTZ Richmond Times-Dispatch

The Virginia General Assembly looks remarkably different than it did when it met for the first time 250 years ago in an independent commonwealth.

But Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) reminded the legislators crammed into the old House of Burgesses Chamber in the Colonial Capitol in Williamsburg on Wednesday that the challenges and duties of governing aren't so different now than they were then.

Spanberger, who weathered a sometimes-rocky relationship with assembly members in her first legislative session this year, said members of the first General Assembly” quickly found out that the work of self-governance was a little messy.”

“They argued, they debated, they pushed each other, they disagreed — sometimes fiercely,” she said. “But then they moved forward — together.”

Spanberger used the ceremonial session, attended by 84 delegates and 30 senators, as well as former governors L. Douglas Wilder (D) and Jim Gilmore (R) and Attorney General Jay Jones (D), to extol Virginia's role in the American Revolution and as an independent nation. But the governor also urged legislators to follow that tradition by rising above differences of political party, policy and personality to solve the problems that Virginians face each day.

“Virginians are not asking us to agree on everything,” she said. “The people who served in this room certainly didn’t.”

“But the Virginians who elected us and sent us to Richmondare asking us not to let our disagreements get in the way of progress or problem-solving for them,” she said. “They don’t have time for grudges. They aren’t keeping track of what happens week by week, or who won the last argument.”

“They’re simply waiting to see whether we are doing the job they sent us here to do.”

Spanberger praised legislators for the work they had done together, naming initiatives that they had passed on a bipartisan basis to improve access to affordable healthcare and housing, reduce energy prices, protect students and attract business investment.

“That’s what happens when people debate and argue and find a path forward,” she said. “That is how this work was designed to be done.”

Spanberger was surrounded by General Assembly leaders of both parties, with whom she has disagreed sometimes on policy, including how to tax data centers in the state budget, how and when to allow local government employees to bargain collectively or how best to meet Virginia's energy needs while protecting the natural world in a changing global climate.

"Moving forward isn't always easy or quick," she said. "But we have and always will figure out a way, and it never happens by accident. Someone has to choose it."

The challenges of self-governance may not have changed much, but the General Assembly and the state it serves are much different than they were when members of the House of Delegates and Senate met for the first time on Oct. 7, 1776, for a legislative session that lasted until Dec. 21. The original legislators looked for solutions for everything from bad roads to the proper punishment for treason. (It would remain death, but not by the gruesome methods of the British Crown then.)

Previously, the House of Burgesses consisted of men — and only men — who served at the pleasure of the Crown. What would become the Senat eafter independence was the Privy Council, chosen by the royal governor, then Lord Dunmore, who fled Williamsburg days after the Fifth Virginia Convention adopted a constitution and the Continental Congress signed the Declaration of Independence.

Patrick Henry became Virginia's first governor as the former colony, now a commonwealth, prepared for a war to secure its independence. Many British loyalists fled what had been the colonial capital, but others remained and denounced the revolutionaries as traitors.

Carly Fiorina, president and chief executive of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, said Wednesday that the revolution posed especially difficult choices for enslaved Black people, particularly after Lord Dunmore issued a decree offering them freedom if they would fight for the British.

"As Williamsburg transformed to fight a war ... the 52 percent of local residents who were Black struggled with the promise of freedom, the clarion call of self-evident truths and the realities of their enslavement," said Fiorina, a former business executive who ran for the Republican presidential nomination unsuccessfully in 2016.

Some chose to follow the

British, others the Americans, serving the Continental Army in mostly segregated units, with the exception of the fully integrated Rhode Island Militia, she said.

Fiorina singled out two of those enslaved men — James Armistead Lafayette, a slave who served as a double-agent for the American forces, and the Rev. Gowan Pamphlet, an enslaved tavern worker who would found what became the Historic First Baptist Church of Williamsburg, one of the oldest African American churches in the nation.

The Williamsburg church, which initially started in a “brush arbor” on a nearby plantation, will celebrate the 250th anniversary of its founding Friday. Its pastor, the Rev. Dr. Reginald L. Davis, gave the invocation as the House convened Wednesday before the joint session with the Senate.

“Once again, the Virginia General Assembly has gathered to do the people's business,” Davis prayed. “And because the people — red or yellow, black or white — are all precious in your sight, we pray you give them the wisdom, the knowledge and the compassion to do what is right in your sight.”

“Let this assembly be the leaders that times like these demand,” he said.

Fiorina also noted the challenges that Native American tribes faced in the Revolution. Some — such as Robert Mursh, of the Pamunkey tribe — would fight with the Americans, as they would in future wars. “Yet, in a reminder of the many stark contradictions of our nation’s beginning, it was also Virginians who began the campaigns of eradication against tribal nations,” she acknowledged.

Amid the fear and uncertainties of war, the first General Assembly met under a new Constitution that created three separate branches of government to guard against excessive executive power, Fiorina said.

“It was a landmark moment in American history,” she said. “It was just another reminder that America was indeed made in Virginia.”

To the assembled legislators, Fiorina said, "Welcome home."

Arlington board argues that the planned 250-foot-tall arch needs review

LUIS VELARDE/FOR THE WASHINGTON POST
The county's suit alleges that the Park Service “improperly dismissed” harms that the agency acknowledges the project will cause, and ignored other significant impacts of the project,” said the lawsuit, filed by the five-person Arlington County Board.

ARCH FROM B13

the project will cause; and outright ignored other significant impacts of the project," said the 35-page lawsuit, filed by the five-person Arlington County Board, which is made up entirely of Democrats.

“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 complaint says.

The lawsuit asks the court to order a preliminary injunction to prevent any demolition or construction unless an environmental-impact statement is completed.

Trump has said that the 250-foot-tall arch — which would be the tallest triumphal arch in the world — should be built to honor the nation's 250th anniversary. The administration also contends it does not need congressional approval for the arch because lawmakers a century ago authorized a somewhat similar project near the site.

Matt de Ferranti, Arlington County Board chair, said in a statement announcing the lawsuit that the administration had rushed processes and dismissed local concerns in its push to complete the project.

"Our community has the most to lose from this egregious and unlawful proposed project," de Ferranti said. "Enough is enough. We will do all we can to hold this administration accountable and to protect and serve the best interests of our community."

Democracy Forward, a left-leaning legal advocacy group, joined the county in filing the lawsuit.

"The president is not allowed to bypass legal review requirements just because he wants to move quickly on his own whims, and NPS clearly violated the law by failing to conduct an adequate review of the arch project," Skye Perryman, the organization's president, said in a statement.

The complaint names the Interior Department, the National Park Service and the heads of each agency, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and acting NPS director Jessica Bowron, as defendants.

The White House and the NPS did not initially respond to requests for comment on the lawsuit. After this story published, the Interior Department said in a statement that it “continues to follow all laws and regulations."

follow all laws and regulations." In a statement Friday, White House spokesperson Davis Ingle said the administration has been "fastidiously compliant with all procedural and legal requirements" and is "certain this meritless and dilatory lawsuit will be dismissed."

"The Triumphal Arch in Memorial Circle is going to be one of the most iconic landmarks not only in Washington, D.C., but throughout the world," the statement added.

Three military veterans and a historic preservationist earlier this year brought a legal challenge seeking to halt the arch, saying that it would harm the experience of visiting nearby Arlington National Cemetery.

The towering arch would be constructed on Memorial Circle, a traffic roundabout tucked inside Washington's boundaries near Arlington National Cemetery and managed by the National Park Service. Trump last month said that he would convert the planned site into a “military complex,” featuring drones, snipers and ammunition, but administration officials recently said that they were proceeding with existing plans for the site, including that it would be open to tourists.

Historic preservationists, veterans groups and others have called on the administration to shrink the monument's planned size or build it elsewhere, warning that the towering structure would overshadow the cemetery, interrupt the solemn corridor that was intended between the cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial, and create other disruptions.

The county's lawsuit argues that, if built, the arch would worsen traffic along crucial thoroughfares, pose a safety risk to flights into and out of Reagan National Airport and “significantly and detrimentally affect many historic properties in Arlington, including Arlington National Cemetery.” The lawsuit also argues that Trump's plan to turn the arch into a military complex would “dramatically worsen these public-safety harms and the risk of accidents.”

Rep. Don Beyer (D-Virginia), who represents the district that includes the military cemetery and Reagan National Airport, has also said that the large arch could pose risks to the airport.

Advocacy groups last month criticized Trump officials for moving to terminate a federally required review of how the arch would harm local historic sites, saying that the decision had little precedent and ignored the public's concerns.

Trump officials are hoping to win final approval for the arch as soon as Nov. 5 — when the project is expected to go before a federal review commission — and begin construction immediately. The lawsuit comes after the administration last month rejected suggestions from local officials and advocacy groups to change the structure's design or location. Administration officials also ended a separate review process meant to determine how the planned arch would harm nearby historic sites.

Arlington County has frequently ended up in the president's crosshairs in recent years over its efforts to resist conservative efforts.

The county's top prosecutor, Democrat Parisa Dehghani-Tafti, has repeatedly come under fire from administration officials and House Republicans over her decision not to pursue criminal charges against a woman who had protested outside the Arlington home of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and allegedly passed out fliers with the Millers' home address.

Last month, the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee released a report attacking the county's “sanctuary policies,” alleging that county officials' refusal to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement “shield foreign national criminals from accountability.”

marine manufacturing facility at Tradepoint Atlantic that is expected to create more than 3,100 jobs. Moore said he was prevented from speaking at the event; the White House said he was invited to attend as a guest.

The dispute also raises a broader political question: Who benefits when a Democratic governor and Republican president publicly clash over a major Maryland economic development project?

The dispute is also the latest public friction between Trump and Moore, whose interactions have drawn attention as Moore is speculated over his national political future. The dispute is not the first public friction between Trump and Moore. At the 2025 Army-Navy football game in Baltimore, Trump later claimed Moore had praised him as the “greatest president” of Moore’s lifetime. Moore denied making the comment, and video of their interaction showed the two discussing the rebuilding of the Francis Scott Key Bridge.

Political analysts interviewed Wednesday said they did not expect the dispute to have much effect on the broader national political conversation, despite the governor expressing his dismay on CNN on Tuesday.

"The fact that it's happening in the midst of an election year, people are paying attention to the [midterm elections] right now, not to the president giving a speech in Sparrows Point," said Todd Eberly, a politics professor at St. Mary's College

of Maryland. He said the most likely takeaway for Maryland voters is the prospect of new jobs.

Matthew Crenson, professor emeritus at Johns Hopkins University, said Maryland voters were more likely to be focused on Tuesday's gubernatorial debate between Moore and Republican challenger Dan Cox, since the election is less than a month away. "There are so many more serious issues, some of which came up in the debate with Dan Cox," Crenson said.

John Dedie, a politics professor at the Community College of Baltimore County, offered a different assessment, saying the dispute is more significant as a potential 2028 political maneuver than as an issue for Maryland voters now.

“Trump, being smart enough, did not want to be on the same stage as a political rival,” Dedie said. “Trump doesn’t want Wes Moore to be the next president.”

The White House disputed Moore's account, saying he was invited to attend as a guest.

Asked Wednesday for details about what led to Moore's absence, the White House reiterated its position and criticized the governor in a statement, saying "it's unfortunate that the Governor is now making a multibillion-dollar announcement about himself by throwing a tantrum over a federal initiative that will bring sorely needed jobs back to his state thanks to President Trump."

Moore's office responded Wednesday that "Governor Moore has always said he will work with anyone when it comes to delivering for Marylanders but bow to no one when it comes to standing up for them."

The disagreement comes as Maryland and Baltimore County consider as much as \$481 million in public incentives and funding for the project. Maryland has proposed state support that includes capital funding for a workforce training center, while Baltimore County is considering a manufacturing personal property tax credit worth up to \$210 million over 30 years.

Anduril plans to invest \$3.7 billion in the project, which would bring large-scale shipbuilding back to the former Bethlehem Steel site and produce components for Virginia-class attack submarines.

Plan aims to give DCA air-traffic controllers more warning about Marine One

MARINE ONE FROM B13

The White House referred The Washington Post to the Federal Aviation Administration for comment. An FAA spokesperson confirmed that a memorandum of understanding regarding the policy had been signed in recent weeks.

The U.S. Secret Service did not respond to a request for comment.

When Trump took off from a temporary spot at the Ellipse on Aug. 4, air traffic controllers at National had not stopped commercial flights. The FAA said there was a “momentary loss of separation” between Marine One and a commercial jet, after which the aircraft continued to move away from each other.

A loss of separation refers to when two aircraft come closer together than they are supposed to. A preliminary FAA estimate found that at their closest, Marine One and the commercial jet were about 0.82 miles apart laterally and about 700 feet vertically, the National Transportation Safety Board said in a preliminary report on the incident.

According to the preliminary report, air traffic control recordings reveal Marine One's first attempt to contact the air traffic control tower was not received at all, and the second attempt was “broken and completely unreadable.”

Marine One was departing from the Ellipse while construction was underway at the White House, according to the report. Technicians later determined the temporary location was in a position that did not provide a direct line of sight for needed radio communications, according to the NTSB.

Following the incident, the White House said the president was never in danger.

Marine One still has to give that three-minute warning, according to the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment.

Baltimore man charged in killing of girl, 12, was released from prison early

Judge shortened suspect's sentence by three years

BY MAGGIE TROVATO Baltimore Sun

Tyree Reynolds was released from prison Sept. 25, after a Baltimore judge cut three years off an eight-year sentence she had imposed on him earlier for assault and weapons charges. Eight days later, while under supervised probation, police say Reynolds opened fire at a youth football game, killing 12-year-old Khloe Ishway.

Reynolds was charged Tuesday with first- and second-degree murder in Ishway's death, as well as attempted first- and second-degree murder, first- and second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and firearms offenses in the shooting. He is being held without bail.

Baltimore Police said the shooting followed an argument over a parking spot at Leon Day

Park on Saturday night, where the Charm City Buccaneers were hosting a homecoming game. Ishway and three other people were shot. The 12-year-old died after being taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital.

During a virtual court appearance Wednesday morning, Reynolds waived his right to a bail review. A public defender representing him said the defense would reserve any additional statements for a later time.

According to charging documents, surveillance footage shows Reynolds exchanging words with two men before reaching into a backpack, removing a short-barreled rifle and firing at them.

Police said Reynolds fired in the direction of the football field, where Ishway and the other victims were. One of the men then shot back, according to the documents, striking Reynolds in the left ankle.

Police said they are searching for a second shooter in the case.

Investigators said bullets recovered from Ishway's body during her autopsy matched shell casings recovered from the location where Reynolds was seen firing, according to the charging documents.

Police believe two men took Reynolds to Grace Medical Center. Charging documents say hospital cameras show him being brought in wearing the same clothing he was seen wearing at

Police said Reynolds fired in the direction of the football field, where Ishway and the other victims were.

the scene.

Investigators said they interviewed Reynolds after his release from the hospital. Police said he admitted to being at the scene of the shooting but denied firing shots. He also told investigators he was wearing different clothing.

During his court appearance, Reynolds was in a wheelchair and had a cast on his foot.

Reynolds was charged in July 2021 with attempted murder, assault, reckless endangerment and weapons offenses after police said he shot a person in the face during an armed altercation outside a fried chicken restaurant.

Police said Reynolds and another person pulled handguns on each other at the restaurant's entrance. Reynolds, who was 18 at the time, pleaded guilty to first-degree assault and a weapons offense.

In July 2022, Baltimore City Circuit Judge Cynthia Jones sentenced him to 15 years in prison, with all but eight years suspended, and three years of supervised probation.

Court records show Reynolds requested a sentence-modification hearing in March 2025, saying he had made “self-improvements” while incarcerated.

Baltimore City State's Attorney Ivan Bates said his office was bound by a deal reached in that 2021 case, before he took over.

"The original plea agreement was entered into in 2021, before my administration," Bates said. "As part of that binding plea agreement, the State agreed to consider a future request for sentence modification. In 2025, the Defendant requested a sentence modification hearing, and the State agreed to the hearing under the terms of the original plea agreement."

At the August 2025 hearing, Jones modified the sentence to 15 years, with all but five years suspended, and three years of supervised probation.

Keith Martucci, a spokesperson for the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, said Reynolds served his entire modified active sentence “day for day” before his release and that the department was “heartbroken by the tragic death of 12-year-old Khloe Ishway and the injuries to innocent bystanders.”

Reynolds also pleaded guilty to a separate weapons charge in December 2021. Court records

The Washington Post

Curiosity looks good on you.

Shop The Post Store show he was sentenced to three years, with one year, four months and six days suspended.

It was not immediately clear Wednesday whether that sentence ran concurrently with or consecutively to the sentence in the assault case.

Ishway's family described her as kind and said she loved to dance.

Ishway had stopped at the park Saturday with her mother to deliver a bottle of formula to her grandfather, who was watching her 1-year-old brother. As they returned to their car, gunfire erupted.

More than 500 people gathered Monday for a peace walk from the Muslim Community Cultural Center of Baltimore to Leon Day Park to honor Ishway and call for an end to violence.

Reynolds has a preliminary hearing scheduled for Nov. 4, according to Maryland court records.

MARGARET HAMILTON, 90

Original ‘software engineer’ helped astronauts reach the moon with her ingenuity

BY JUNO CARMEL

In 1969, minutes before Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first people to touch down on the moon, warnings flashed on one of Apollo 11's onboard computers.

“Program alarm,” Armstrong radioed to Mission Control in Houston. “It’s a 1202. What is it?”

To thousands of engineers, scientists and technicians on Earth and to the two astronauts on board, that code meant nothing but stress and trouble. Margaret Hamilton had led the team that programmed that alarm code, one of 29 alarms that could be triggered as the lunar module Eagle landed on the moon.

“They were the never-supposed-to-happen alarms,” Ms. Hamilton told the Wall Street Journal in 2019. “I was in a state of shock. How could this be happening now just before the landing? I’m thinking: Oh my God, this is not real.”

During those tense seconds, NASA's Mission Control considered whether it was time to abort the landing. Yet the alarm was signaling that Ms. Hamilton, then 32, had done her job perfectly: The error message indicated that the computer was overloaded and was dumping low-priority tasks to focus on flight safety. Trusting Ms. Hamilton's software, Mission Control gave the go-ahead to proceed. The Eagle was able to land — with only enough fuel for an estimated 30 seconds of flight.

"Our astronauts didn't have much time, but thankfully, they had Margaret Hamilton," President Barack Obama said in 2016, awarding her the Presidential Medal of Freedom for overseeing the team that developed Apollo's onboard flight software.

Ms. Hamilton, he added, "symbolizes the generation of unsung women who helped send humankind into space. ... Her example speaks of the American spirit of discovery that exists in every little girl and little boy who know that somehow, to look beyond the heavens is to look deep within ourselves and to figure out just what is possible."

Ms. Hamilton, who was credited with coining the term “software engineer” while working on the Apollo program, died Sept. 30 at age 90, at a hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The cause was multiple organ failure, said her daughter, Lauren Hamilton.

A trailblazing computer scientist, Ms. Hamilton developed early computer software that helped pave the way for the digital world as we know it today.

"This is not somebody just dotting Is and crossing Ts," Deborah G. Douglas, curator of science and technology at the MIT Museum, told the Boston Globe in 2016. "Margaret Hamilton is at the vanguard of people really obsessed with making sure that computer programs work right

— that they don't contain errors, that they do exactly what they're going to do, and when a crisis happens that they don't get overwhelmed."

Ms. Hamilton started learning about computers in 1959, working at MIT under Edward Lorenz, a meteorologist who went on to lay the groundwork for chaos theory. Just a few years later, she was writing code for one of the largest computers ever made, a hulking 250-ton machine that served as the brains of a Cold War-era defense system known as the Semi-Automatic Ground Environment, or SAGE.

Through that job, in 1964, she became the first programmer hired for the Apollo project at MIT, and the first female programmer in the Apollo project altogether. Within a year, she was leading her own team at the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory.

“Because software was a mystery, a black box, upper management gave us total freedom and trust,” she later told MIT News. “We had to find a way and we did.”

Ms. Hamilton was the lead developer for the software that powered the Apollo guidance computer, which weighed 70 pounds but had only 72 kilobytes of memory, a fraction of today's smartphones. Her software played a key role in the success of six voyages to the moon between 1969 and 1972, and later contributed to the development of Skylab, America's first space station.

“Her work allowed a remarkably complex spacecraft to operate reliably in a truly unprecedented and unpredictable environment,” Brian C. Odom, NASA’s chief historian, said of her contributions to Apollo.

As she worked on the Apollo computers, Ms. Hamilton began calling herself a software engineer, a new term intended to convey the complexity and value of her work.

"It was an ongoing joke for a long time," she told the Guardian in 2019, referring to the way that her colleagues would dismiss the importance of software. "Then one day in a meeting, one of the most respected hardware gurus explained to everyone that he agreed with me. The process of building software should also be considered an engineering discipline."

Working many nights and weekends meant that Ms. Hamilton often brought her young daughter to the lab. One day, Lauren pressed a button that made a flight simulator crash while she was “playing astronaut.” Ms. Hamilton realized that an astronaut might make the same mistake, and she programmed the software to have an alarm that would sound when the computer was overloaded.

“Astronauts’ lives were at stake,” she told the Guardian. “Our software needed to be ultrareliable, and it needed to be able to detect an error and recover from it at any time during the mission.”

Though she was part of a relatively small group of women working for NASA at that time, Ms. Hamilton said she didn't realize the severity of her office's gender imbalance until she saw the office dynamic in “Mad Men” many years later.

"When I first came to Apollo, there were no other women writing software. Then within a couple of years there would be a few — and I did have some working for me — but not many," she told the Guardian. “There were always many more men.”

'Never been done before'

The eldest of four children, Margaret Elaine Heafield was born in Paoli, Indiana, on Aug. 17, 1936, and grew up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Her mother was a high school teacher, and her father was a college professor of philosophy and English.

Ms. Hamilton studied math at the University of Michigan before transferring to Earlham College in Indiana, where she received a bachelor's degree in 1958. She soon married James Cox Hamilton and moved to Massachusetts, where her husband enrolled in law school at Harvard while Ms. Hamilton took a job at MIT to pay the bills.

Though she planned to pursue a PhD in math once her husband was working and making money, she changed her mind when he showed her a newspaper ad from the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory, which was looking for software developers to help “send man to the moon.”

“I was attracted both by the sheer idea and the fact that it had never been done before,” she recalled.

At that time, computer code was written on thick paper cards with punched-out holes, which software engineers would check before sending them along to a Raytheon factory. There, a workforce of mostly women would weave copper wires and magnetic cores into long “ropes” that would store the binary code. The wire went through the tiny magnetic core when it represented a one, and it went around the core when it represented a zero. Ms. Hamilton, who became known as the “rope mother,” reviewed the software code before the core ropes were made, ensuring that they had no errors.

In 1972, she left MIT to start her own software and technology companies, which pioneered the development of a software architecture, Universal Systems Language, intended to help engineers design more dependable, error-free systems.

Ms. Hamilton's first marriage ended in divorce, as did her second, to fellow Apollo engineer Dan Lickly. In the late 1970s, she met Ron Hackler, a jazz musician who had a passion for math and became her partner in both life and business. He died in 2025.

In addition to her daughter, survivors include two brothers and a sister; two grandsons; and four great-grandchildren.

In 2017, Lego released a set of figurines honoring four pioneering women of NASA: Nancy Grace Roman, the agency's first chief of astronomy; Sally Ride, the first American woman in space; Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space; and Ms. Hamilton, who often encouraged younger scientists to plunge into the unknown.

“Don’t let fear get in the way, and don’t be afraid to say ‘I don’t know’ or ‘I don’t understand’ — no question is a dumb question,” she advised in 2019. “And don’t always listen to the so-called experts!”

DEATH NOTICE

FLOWE

DEATH NOTICE RINEHART

BENJAMIN HUGH FLOWE JR. (Age 70) Benjamin Hugh "Ben" Flowe Jr., 70, of Potomac, Maryland, died at home on October 8, 2026, nearly twelve years after he was diagnosed with ALS. He was a nationally recognized export controls lawyer, a devoted Duke fan, the patriarch of his family, and a fierce optimist who refused to let the disease shrink his world.

NANA MERETE RINEHART (Age 84) Nana Rinehart died on September 4, 2026. She was born in Copenhagen, Denmark. She had Robert Rinehart at Oxford in 1955 and after marrying the following year, the couple moved to Washington, DC. Nana taught English literature for 25 years before transitioning to the International Student Exchange Program. In retirement, Nana studied theology and became a counselor in Ignatian Spirituality. Nana is survived by her husband, sons Niels, Paul, and Ben, their spouses Lauren, Ilonka, and Nadia, and grandsons Liam, Abe, Lev, and Martin. Please go to https://nanarinehart.com/ for a more in-depth obituary. Funeral services are scheduled for Monday, October 12, at Holy Trinity.

Ben was born February 8, 1956, in Durham, North Carolina, to Dorothy and Benjamin Flowe. He spent childhood summers in Montreat, N.C., with his parents and siblings, and later carried on the tradition with his own children, nieces and nephews. In high school he played soccer and tennis, attended the North Carolina Governor's School, and spent a summer in London as an AFS exchange student. He earned a psychology degree from Duke University and graduated third in his class from the UNC School of Law.

Ben began practicing law in 1981 at Arent Fox, then worked at Bowman Conner and Verner Liipfert before joining Berliner Corcoran & Rowe in 1997. He was a partner there until he retired in December 2024. At BCR he grew the firm's export controls and sanctions work from a one-person practice into a group known nationally and internationally. For decades he volunteered on the Commerce Department's Regulations and Procedures Technical Advisory Committee, and he was among the government officials and committee members who oversaw the complete rewrite of the Export Administration Regulations in 1996. He became a leading authority on the regulations' encryption provisions and lectured on them in the United States and abroad. Colleagues called him the mean of the export control bar in 1997. In this period, he wrote the book on international export controls, and knew him for his Southern charm, his sense of humor and his generosity as a mentor. One younger partner called him "basically a Ted Lasso," a mentor whose lessons in patience and kindness mattered as much as his lessons in law. In 2026, his BCR colleagues established the Benjamin H. Flowe Jr. Trade Scholar Award through the National Council on International Trade Development to support students entering the field.

Ben met Margaret "Peg" Flowe through her nephew Patrick and sister Sally, after he mentored Patrick in confirmation class at Bradley Hills Presbyterian Church. They married in 2005 and hosted countless birthdays, holidays and celebrations for a big extended family. He treated his stepchildren, Daniel and Jane, as his own, supporting

them through school and beyond just as he did his children, Andy and Sammie. He cheered from the sidelines of his kids' soccer games, put his kids through college, took the people he loved on trips abroad, and devotedly attended every sporting event imaginable: Wizards and Duke basketball games, D.C. United and Washington Freedom soccer games, and even the occasional UNC game (mostly to support his siblings). He was a good thing of his children and never happier than with his granddaughter, Violet. He talked with her every day and celebrated her first birthday with the family just days before he died.

Ben was dissolved with ALS in 2014. When he learned that most patients live two to five years after diagnosis, he began telling people his doctor had given him "two to twenty-six years." He lived nearly twelve. As the disease advanced, he adapted: a walker, then working from home in his pajamas, then a power chair. When he lost his voice, his already long emails grew longer, and he kept sending friends favorite songs and sports clips, typing faster with his thumbs than most people can with two hands. Through ALS walks and Team Ben, the fundraising rides organized by his sister-in-law Sally Fowler, he raised more than \$400,000 for the occasion of Monday and Ashley's wedding, he framed in his/her chair. Every March, madness descended with the NCAA tournament. He'd make gentlemen's wagers with his brother, Lock, and friends (if Duke lost, Lock got crab cakes; if Duke won, Lock had to cook Colorado bison steaks), travel with friends and family to watch doubleheaders in Charlotte, or sneak out of the office with his law partner Wayne to watch games at a bar on L Street, hoping the other lawyers wouldn't notice the unbilled hours. A lifelong music fan, Ben loved the Grateful Dead, the Doobie Brothers, the Rolling Stones, Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King and Bonnie Raitt. As a Duke senior he headed to be seen as for the first section when the Dead played Cameron Indoor Stadium in 1978, a night he loved retelling as the time he managed to annoy both Jerry Garcia and a Hell's Angel. He kept chasing shows for decades, from Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young to Willie Nelson at 90, and traded Spotify playlists with just about everyone he knew.

He was a member of First Presbyterian Church in Concord and later Bradley Hills Presbyterian Church in Bethesda. He also proudly supported the Chromosome 18 Registry & Research Society, serving on the board for years.

Ben is survived by his wife of 21 years, Margaret "Peg" Flowe; his children, Andy Flowe (Ashley) and Sammie Flowe; his stepchildren, Daniel Mahoney and Jane Mahoney; his granddaughter, Violet; his mother-in-law, Jeanne Undy, his sister, Sally Aberle (Tom); his sister-in-law, Judy Flowe; Peg's siblings, David Oldach (Toby), John Oldach (Maureen), Jazz Undy, Sally Fowler (Frank) and Huggie Oldach (Carol); and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Dorothy and Benjamin Flowe; his brother, Lock Flowe; and his nephew, Benjamin Gurlev.

A celebration of life will be held at Bradley Hills Presbyterian Church in Bethesda at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the ALS Association or the Benjamin H. Flowe Jr. Trade Scholar Award at the National Council on International Trade Development.

HENRY

MAJOR GENERAL CHARLES ROBERT HENRY (Age 89)

Major General Charles Henry (Chuck) went to be with the Lord on October 4, 2026, surrounded by family in his Fort Lauderdale home. He was born October 3, 1937, in Horse Cave, Kentucky and attended the University of Tennessee, where he met his future wife, Sandra Dianna Green, marrying in 1957. He graduated from Middle Tennessee State University in 1959, accepting an ROTC Second Lieutenant commission and began a 32-year Army career with an emphasis on the military's position, additional cicking up two law degrees (JD/LLM) at night while serving in the Army. He was a company commander in Germany; assigned to Saudi Arabia and spent the prior year learning to speak Arabic; logistics staff officer with MACV Vietnam; Battalion commander at Fort Lee, Virginia; and Colonel level command with Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) in Detroit, Michigan and Cleveland, Ohio.

General Henry was in the first group selected to Brigadier General and assigned to the U.S. Congressionally established position of U.S. Army Competition Advocate General. Following promotion to Major General (1988), he was assigned back to DLA as Deputy Director (Acquisition Management) a job that made him responsible for delivery of all food, fuel, clothing, and medical supplies for all U.S. forces during Desert Storm.

Concurrent with his position DLA Deputy Director, he was given the assignment to create the Defense Contract Management Agency, thus assuming contract management of nearly all Department of Defense contracts and commanding a workforce beginning with over 20,000 personnel.

His awards include the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, Army Distinguished Service Medal (2), Defense Superior Service

Medal, Bronze Star Medal, Legion of Merit, Meritorious Service Medal (2), Army Commendation Medal, and Joint Service Commendation Medal (3).

He retired from the Army on January 1, 1993 crediting both Sandy and the Army for guidance in developing his character, ethics, and integrity. Sandy says he failed at retirement and could never say no when asked to do a job. He began his second career in industry, lasting 32 years with duties as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and President of LFR Group. He was also called to serve as an expert witness based upon his knowledge of defense acquisition. He later served as a crisis management consultant working around troubled companies. He has served on both public and private companies' board of directors. He stopped working at the age of 87 only because the company was sold.

Honors: Hall of Fame: Middle Tennessee State University (ROTC – 1992), Hall of Fame: United States Army Quartermaster Corps (1998), Hall of Fame: Defense Logistics Agency (1999), Outstanding Alum: United States Army War College (2014), Author: "A General's Insight into Leadership and Management," Battelle Press 1996. Honorary Colonel, United States Army Quartermaster Corps (2001-2003), Fort Lee, Virginia, Charles Henry Conference Center (2007), and Sarah Young Development Charter & Sandra Henry Foundation, a charity to benefit wounded warriors and their immediate families with educational opportunities and scholarships to gain skills enabling better employment options.

He and Sandy were married for 68 years after dating for only 6 months. He used to say, "We were two kids who showed up and said we were going to get married and both of our families thought it was a good idea. Where was the adult leadership?" Together, he and Sandy raised two children, Kathryn (1959) and Mark (1963).

He is predeceased by his parents, Charles A. Henry and Lucy Rhea Henry Ousley, brother James R. Henry (Doris), daughter Kathryn Lynn Henry, and niece Patricia Butler (Mickey). He is survived by his wife, Sandra Green Henry, son Mark Charles Henry (Brenda), granddaughters Dianna Henry Archer (Seth), Ginny Henry Thomas (Shane), Mary Ashley Warlington, grandson Andrew Warlington, and nieces Laura Ayers (Fred), Rebecca Dempsey (Bob), and Michelle Atwell (Jim).

A Celebration of Life will take place in northern Virginia prior to interment at Arlington National Cemetery; both to be held at a later date.
