Rubio says mediators of Gaza ceasefire shared information to uncover a recent threat

October 25, 2025

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Israel, the U.S. and the other mediators of the Gaza ceasefire deal are sharing information to disrupt any threats and that allowed them to identify a possible impending attack last weekend. Speaking to reporters Saturday en route from Israel to Qatar, Rubio says the State Department put out a message, sent the warning to other mediators and the attack didn’t happen. He says the goal is to find threats before anything happens. Rubio also noted that next week the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Dan Caine, is expected in Israel. He says the U.S. is looking for international agreement on a stabilization force in Gaza so more nations can take part.

Virginia gubernatorial candidates debate trans youth rights as LGBTQ+ voters weigh a fraught moment

October 25, 2025

The rights of trans youth could be a factor Virginia’s 2025 gubernatorial election and legislative control in Richmond. Republican Winsome Earle-Sears opposes the rights of trans kids at school. Democrat Abigail Spanberger has largely avoided the subject. Each candidate is trying to cast the other as the extremist on the issue. LGBTQ+ Virginians have been grappling with what it means to be queer and trans in a moment where their identities are thrust into statewide and national politics. Other Virginians, meanwhile, worry about its impact on their children.

October 25, 2025

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has announced that more than two dozen people have been indicted on drug-related charges as part of a yearslong investigation into a gang in Philadelphia. According to the indictment, cocaine, fentanyl and heroin were sold in the Kensington area in “one of the most prolific drug blocks in the city” from Jan. 2016 to Oct. 2025. The charges come as President Donald Trump scales up federal law enforcement operations around the U.S. to crack down on crime, though rates have gone done in recent years in cities including Philadelphia.

Kamala Harris leaves door open for 2028 presidential run

October 25, 2025

Kamala Harris isn’t ruling out another run for the White House. Harris was asked about the possibility in an interview with the BBC posted online Saturday. She said she expects a woman will be president in the coming years, and it could possibly be her. The former vice-president said she’s “not done” but hasn’t decided whether to run in 2028. She dismissed the suggestion that she’d face long odds. Harris replaced then-President Joe Biden as the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee after he dropped out of the race. She ultimately lost to Republican President Donald Trump.

Ravens rule out Lamar Jackson (hamstring) for Sunday; 2-time MVP will miss a 3rd straight game

October 25, 2025

Lamar Jackson will miss a third consecutive game with a hamstring injury when the Baltimore Ravens host the Chicago Bears. The Ravens ruled Jackson out Saturday, while also saying he was not in fact a full participant in practice the previous day. Jackson was initially listed as a full participant Friday — and questionable for Sunday’s game. But now the team has downgraded him to out — and said he was actually limited Friday. The Ravens lost to Houston and the Los Angeles Rams without Jackson, and even an open date last weekend wasn’t enough for them to get the two-time MVP back.

Shutdowns began as a way to enforce federal law. Now Trump is using it to take more power

October 25, 2025

The government shutdown is quickly becoming a way for President Donald Trump to exercise new command over the government. Yet it wasn’t always this way. Shutdowns started as an attempt to tighten Washington’s observance of federal law. The modern phenomena of the U.S. government closing down services was set in motion in 1980 by a series of legal opinions from then-Attorney General Benjamin Civiletti. In the current shutdown, Trump has used the funding lapse to punish Democrats, lay off thousands of federal workers and reconfigure the federal budget for his priorities.

Your latest prescription is to get outside

October 25, 2025

Health care providers are trying a new tactic to promote the healing effects of nature: They’re actually writing prescriptions for it. Time in nature can lower blood pressure and reduce at least the perception of stress. Doctors recommending time outdoors isn’t new, but hundreds of them over the last decade have taken to issuing formal prescriptions in hopes of getting people to follow through. Park Rx America helps providers set up nature prescriptions. They say nearly 2,000 health care providers are registered with them and have issued more than 7,000 nature prescriptions since 2019.

Historic libraries bring modern comfort to book lovers and history buffs in New England

October 25, 2025

Centuries-old private libraries are bringing modern comfort and awe to book lovers and history buffs in New England. About 20 athenaeums dating back to the 18th- and 19th centuries remain in the region. Back then, athenaeums were exclusive spaces that only people with education and money could access. Today, they are member-supported private libraries where people can explore a seemingly endless maze of books, biographies, town genealogies and more. One athenaeum executive director says some people visit every day to work remotely, read or socialize. Some of the libraries are free while others offer membership for a monthly fee. Most offer day passes and tours, too.

October 25, 2025

Luka Doncic has begun his first full season with the Lakers on a serious heater. The Slovenian superstar is off to one of the greatest starts to a season in NBA history, following up his 43-point effort on opening night against Golden State with a 49-point spree in Los Angeles’ victory over Minnesota on Friday. He’s the fourth player in NBA history to begin a season with back-to-back 40-point performances. He barely missed a triple-double twice, too. His 92 points are the most to start a season in the history of a team that has employed many of the greatest players ever to pick up a basketball.
