When U.S. District Judge Margaret M. Garnett asked whether he understood that he could spend the rest of his life behind bars, Mangione answered neutrally: “Yes.”<\/p><p>In a statement, Thompson’s family called the plea “an important step toward justice” and noted that Mangione still faces other cases, including a New York state murder prosecution. It carries the potential for a separate long sentence.<\/p>Mangione still faces a state murder case<p>Federal prosecutors didn’t give Mangione any deal or incentive to plead guilty, they and his lawyers said. Nor did Mangione plead guilty to avoid a potential death sentence. That possibility was taken off the table when a <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/mangione-unitedhealthcare-death-penalty-dismissed-killing-1d17a30d0297acda29fc82dbf54d2677\">federal murder charge was tossed out<\/a> this winter.<\/p><p>Mangione’s lawyers didn’t explain why he choose to plead guilty now, but after he entered the plea at Friday’s hastily scheduled hearing, they quickly sought to have the New York case thrown out on double jeopardy grounds. The state’s double jeopardy protections can kick in if a prior prosecution ends in a guilty plea.<\/p><p>“Mr. Mangione has accepted full responsibility for the death of Brian Thompson,” defense lawyer Karen Friedman Agnifilo said outside court, arguing that her client shouldn’t face two prosecutions over a “single tragic event.”<\/p><p>The Manhattan district attorney’s office, which is handling the state prosecution, said it remains committed to its case and would contest the defense’s efforts to shut it down.<\/p>Mangione alludes to back pain in explaining his actions<p>Surveillance video of the ambush showed <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/manhattan-shooting-death-daa1e8c8c05606197a5bd2e0242f1683\">a masked gunman<\/a> shooting Thompson, 50, from behind. Police say <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/manhattan-shooting-death-daa1e8c8c05606197a5bd2e0242f1683\">“delay,” “deny” and “depose”<\/a> were written on the ammunition, mimicking a phrase used to describe how insurers avoid paying claims.<\/p><p>That detail — and revelations that Mangione's private writings lambasted health insurers as greedy, according to authorities — made the case a fulcrum for debate about the industry and made Mangione a <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/united-healthcare-ceo-luigi-mangione-josh-shapiro-3a8c64a0bc412e0eeb84bca0c99b6e67\">cause célèbre<\/a> for some of its critics.<\/p><p>A University of Pennsylvania graduate from a wealthy Maryland family, Mangione told the court Friday that he pursued Thompson “after years of enduring severe pain from a broken back, navigating the obstacles of the health insurance system and witnessing similar experiences of countless others.”<\/p><p>Friedman Agnifilo later said her client “believed that the system had failed him and destroyed his life.”<\/p>Authorities say Mangione's grievances are no excuse for killing<p>Mangione <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/luigi-mangione-united-healthcare-ceo-d148fbdde498c3ea4cf768945889d7e7\">never was a UnitedHealthcare customer<\/a>, according to police and the company.<\/p><p>“To those who idolize Luigi Mangione, I say this. Violence is not a cause. Murder is not a message. And a killer is certainly not a hero,” New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said outside court Friday.<\/p><p>U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald, whose office handled the federal case, added: “There can be no celebrity in assassination.\"<\/p><p>Thompson led one of the United States' largest health insurers, but he <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/united-healthcare-ceo-new-york-shooting-brian-thompson-8a130e64bcab749d1a085f5a34ab8254\">wasn't well known outside the industry<\/a>. Trained as an accountant, he worked at parent company UnitedHealth Group Inc. for 20 years and became CEO of its insurance arm, UnitedHealthcare, in 2021. He and his wife had two sons, who were in high school when their father was killed.<\/p><p>Thompson's violent death “devastated everyone who knew and loved him,” the company said in a statement Friday, thanking law enforcement for bringing Mangione to justice.<\/p>His defense had lost some disputes over evidence<p>Mangione <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/unitedhealthcare-ceo-shooting-suspect-c68d0328f278d85fcf201ae89f634098\">was arrested five days after the shooting<\/a>, when he was spotted at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, about 230 miles (370 kilometers) west of Manhattan. Police had <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/unitedhealthcare-ceo-shooter-b6a0bcc8f517604bb612511acea164b9\">released various images<\/a> of the suspected shooter, including one showing his face as he checked into a hostel.<\/p><p>Although his lawyers got the federal murder charge dismissed, Garnett also delivered some setbacks to the defense, ruling in January that prosecutors could use items collected from Mangione’s backpack during his arrest as evidence against him. They included a 3D-printed pistol that investigators said matched the one used to kill Thompson and <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/mangione-united-health-care-ceo-killed-3f6326b0a8fdf807622746a5d461742c\">a notebook<\/a> in which authorities say Mangione described his intent to kill an insurance executive.<\/p><p>Similarly, the judge in the state case <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/unitedhealthcare-ceo-killing-luigi-mangione-nyc-8989b2a82558643f1099523e21611afc\">threw out terrorism charges<\/a> against Mangione but <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/mangione-united-health-care-ceo-killed-3f6326b0a8fdf807622746a5d461742c\">agreed to let the gun and notebook be used as evidence<\/a>.

Economists were projecting a small increase.<\/p><p>The decline followed a notable bump in spending in both April and May as Americans dipped into their government tax refunds.<\/p><p>The drop in spending for July, however, raised concern among some economists about the resiliency of consumers who have powered the economy forward despite nagging inflation and soaring gasoline prices. Yet, it may be too early to declare a retreat by one of the strongest and most consistent forces in the U.S. economy of late.<\/p><p>Still, the weak sales report follows unexpectedly sluggish jobs figures last week, and both suggest the economy could be slowing after strong consumer and business spending in the first half of the year.<\/p><p>Separately, consumers turned more pessimistic about the economy this month, likely driven by stubbornly high prices, according to the University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment index, released Friday.<\/p><p>While most economists still expect solid economic growth in the July-September quarter, many have lowered their forecasts in the wake of the retail sales report.<\/p><p>Prices in July, which were not adjusted for inflation, were impacted by falling sales at gas stations. Fuel prices remained low until later in the month when evidence of a stalemate between the U.S. and Iran in the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/iran-uae-us-strait-hormuz-august-14-2026-e8565c608ac5283ec8103c85df924b13\">Strait of Hormuz<\/a> began to grow.

That's 92 cents more per gallon than Americans were paying last year at this time.<\/p><p>Gas prices typically begin to recede in August as the driving season comes to a close and the AAA said this week that the high cost of fuel for Americans this late in the year is unprecedented.<\/p><p>Excluding sales at gas stations and auto dealers, retail sales in July fell 0.2%.<\/p><p>Business at motor vehicle and parts dealers saw a 1.8% drop from a 1.9% increase in June, which was helped by auto makers' promotion incentives.<\/p><p>Electronics and appliance sales declined 0.5%. Online sales fell 2.2% from June when they were fueled by spending surrounding Amazon’s four-day Prime Day event that began in late June, earlier than previous years.<\/p><p>The drop in online sales weighed heavily on the so-called control group—which excludes food services, autos, building materials and gas station sales and is used to calculate economic growth. That figure fell 0.4% last month.<\/p><p>“American consumers are showing signs of fatigue, “ Heather Long, chief economist at Navy Federal Credit Union, wrote Friday. “July retail sales were disappointing on all levels.”<\/p><p>But the weak sales seemed to be concentrated in a few areas.<\/p><p>Among some of the bright spots in the report: clothing and accessories stores, furniture and home furnishing stores as well as building material and garden supplies merchants all posted gains last month.<\/p><p>The data offers only a snapshot of consumer spending and doesn’t include activities like travel and hotel stays. But the lone services category – restaurants – registered a healthy 0.5% increase<\/p><p>“Though the latest numbers warrant a downgrade to the spending forecast, it’d be premature to write off the consumer,” Bernard Yaros, lead U.S. economist at Oxford Economics said.<\/p><p>He noted the job market is “broadly balanced,” and wealthy households, boosted by strong gains in the stock market, continue to spend.<\/p><p>New data this week showed that inflation <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/consumer-prices-inflation-fed-interest-rates-150e179a6c6b3182ba05cedf0188394b\">declined slightly<\/a> in July as gas and grocery prices slipped, though it is still rising more quickly than before the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/iran\">Iran war<\/a>.<\/p><p>Consumer prices increased <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/consumer-prices-inflation-fed-interest-rates-150e179a6c6b3182ba05cedf0188394b\">3.4% in July<\/a> from a year ago, down slightly from 3.5% in June, the Labor Department said Wednesday.

How better to pay tribute to the natural and perhaps inevitable combination of two distinctly American icons: fast food and cars?<\/p><p>Those two massive sociological forces had already joined up, Voltron-style, early in the 20th century with the development of the drive-in restaurant – that classic scene evocative of “Happy Days” where customers sat in their cars while servers (ideally on skates) brought out food that was consumed on site from window trays.<\/p><p>But the real innovation dates to the late 1940s and is the brainchild of either (depending on which source you trust) an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.history.com\/articles\/drive-thru-dining-history-in-n-out-burger\">In-N-Out Burger<\/a> in California in 1948 or <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Red%27s_Giant_Hamburg\">Red’s Giant Hamburg<\/a> in Springfield, Missouri in 1947. (In comparison, the first reported drive-thru in Europe didn’t open until 1985 in Dublin.)<\/p><p>By the mid 1960s, this had mushroomed into a robust American market, spawning imitators and innovators. Jack in the Box pioneered the drive-thru exclusive restaurant with no indoor seats and no parking — and a talking mechanical clown to take your order. In Western states, residents of a certain age will recall the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roadarch.com\/eateries\/dw.html\">Wienershnitzel<\/a> chain with its distinctive A-frame structures specially built with a tunnel down the middle for cars.<\/p><p>The innovation sparked unexpected knock-on developments. Restaurant menus shifted heavily toward sandwiches, fries, chicken strips and other portables that could be consumed on the go. The cars themselves adjusted over the years to accommodate larger and larger drink holders. What sociological (and nutritional) impact this has all had on the actual consumers would be the subject of a much longer essay.<\/p><p>The innovation hasn’t stopped. Modern drive-thrus have evolved into tightly coordinated multi-lane affairs. At Chick-fil-As around the country, actual humans with electronic tablets now stand – breathing in exhaust fumes all day – to ensure a seamless ordering process with no mechanical speaker garbles.<\/p><p>The drive-thru, with its distinctly American creative spelling, has become woven into the fabric of the culture.

(AP) — A Maryland state tax court has struck down the state’s first-in-the-nation tax on digital advertising and ordered state officials to repay the tax money already collected from big tech firms.<\/p><p>The Maryland Tax Court said the tax violates the federal Internet Tax Freedom Act as well as the First Amendment and the commerce and due process clauses of the U.S. Constitution.<\/p><p>The legal fight has been watched by other states that are considering taxes for online ads. Maryland estimated the tax, approved in 2021, could raise about $250 million a year to help pay for a sweeping K-12 education measure.<\/p><p>In Friday's decision, the tax court ordered the state to repay the tax money already collected by Apple, Google and Peacock TV.<\/p><p>The law taxed revenue that large companies make on digital advertisements shown in Maryland. Companies making more than $100 million in global annual gross revenues were taxed at a 2.5% rate. The rate increased for companies with larger revenues, topping out at a 10% rate for companies making $15 billion or more in global gross annual revenues.<\/p><p>Supporters of the law contended that Maryland needed to overhaul its tax methods in response to significant changes in how businesses advertise. But attorneys representing Big Tech companies including Meta and Amazon challenged the law in multiple legal venues, arguing in part that they were unfairly targeted.<\/p><p>Last year, 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/big-tech-digital-ad-tax-maryland-court-58a9b6522ec0f909946f3cbc059c629c\">ruled part of the law violated the Constitution<\/a> because it blocked Big Tech companies from telling customers about the tax. That, Judge Julius Richardson said, violated the right to free speech.<\/p><p>Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson and House Speaker Joseline Pena-Melnyk, both Democrats, issued a statement saying they “respectfully disagree” with the tax court ruling and expect the legal process to continue.<\/p><p>They said the tax was enacted to keep the state's tax system in pace with a changing economy.<\/p><p>“We remain committed to ensuring that Maryland’s tax system is fair, sustainable, and reflects today’s economy,” they said. “We will continue working with the Attorney General and Comptroller as this matter proceeds through the courts.”<\/p><p>The tax court said Congress — not the state legislature — is tasked with regulating interstate commerce, and that the tax law was inappropriately based on global revenue rather than revenue from in-state advertising.<\/p><p>The federal Internet Tax Freedom Act bars the taxation of e-commerce if similar services are not taxed. At least for now, the tax court found, there isn't much of a difference between digital advertising and print or billboard ads, which means the bar on taxation applies.<\/p>","byCredit":"Associated Press","author":"AP","endStory":"","commentsEnabled":null,"commentsCloseDate":"3025-12-17T18:29:12.632124+00:00","displayUpdateDate":"Fri, 14 Aug 2026 23:06:25 GMT","rights":0,"pubDate":"Fri, 14 Aug 2026 23:06:25 GMT","expirationDate":"3025-12-17T18:29:12.632124+00:00","body":"<p>FILE - People talk near a Meta sign outside of the company's headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif., March 7, 2023.

The effort was <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/supreme-court-voting-rights-congressional-redistricting-louisiana-aa5d7dbde7c13654f341d152c2ad5229\">turbocharged by a U.S. Supreme Court decision<\/a> this spring that neutralized a key provision of the Voting Rights Act and cleared the way for Republicans to redraw more seats across the South that had elected Black Democrats.<\/p><p>Democratic-leaning and heavily minority communities from Texas to Tennessee <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/tennessee-redistricting-memphis-black-voters-south-b35a4b19c2c4818a660d3689cb8b1f82\">have been split<\/a> into multiple congressional districts that dilute the Democratic vote by stretching deep into conservative areas.<\/p><p>In the future, it is likely that more Republican voters in other states will go through what Smull and other conservatives in Northern California are facing. Democrats in Maryland, New York, Illinois and other strongholds have pledged to retaliate in time for the 2028 elections and split Republican-leaning districts the way their California counterparts did Kiley's.<\/p><p>Democrats have been hindered nationally <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/redistricting-democrats-congress-republicans-independent-commissions-8628980ac7e2e1fc209d9e6511dfc45c\">by stricter rules against partisan line-drawing<\/a> in their states, but California showed a way around that. California Democrats <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/california-redistricting-prop-50-gavin-newsom-839193bfc2a817086acca7365315f26f\">won voter approval last year<\/a> to redraw the state's congressional map, originally made by an independent commission, and formed five new Democratic-leaning seats.<\/p>‘We have zero voice,’ says voter angry at the Democratic drive for a new political map<p>Kiley's is one of them. The reworked political lines led the two-term congressman to leave the Republican Party and run as an independent in the slightly Democratic-leaning district that now includes his home.<\/p><p>He spoke out against partisan gerrymandering, even unsuccessfully trying to force the Republican-led House to allow a vote on a bill to ban mid-decade redistricting.<\/p><p>“We've seen partisan divisions really spin out of control in really harmful ways, and I think exhibit number one is the redistricting wars,” Kiley recently told a group of voters in the suburb of Citrus Heights.<\/p><p>Democrats contend Kiley's party switch is purely a political trick to survive in a more liberal district. They note he still caucuses with House Republicans, has voted for many of the GOP's priorities, including <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/trump-sign-tax-cut-bill-july-4-3804df732e461a626fd8c2b43413c3f0\">Trump's sweeping budget and tax cut bill last year<\/a>, and that political organizations run by House Republicans are spending money to back his reelection.<\/p><p>Even some of Kiley's supporters think the election was a factor in the congressman's decision to become an independent.<\/p><p>“My original thinking was he did it because of redistricting — maybe it'd help him get reelected,” said John Coburn, a 68-year-old retired business owner, at the Citrus Heights event.<\/p><p>Coburn is furious at the Democrats’ redistricting and hopes Kiley wins. Coburn does not care that they did it in retaliation for Texas, where Republicans at Trump's directive revised that state's map to carve out up to five new winnable conservative seats.<\/p><p>“I don't care about Texas, I live in California,” Coburn said, adding that “40% of the state is Republican, and we have zero voice. Zero. It's not how our Founding Fathers intended.”<\/p>For Democrats in the district, a rare political opportunity<p>In an interview, Kiley said his switch to independent was no political gambit. If he wanted to stay in the House, he argued, he could have had an easier time staying in the GOP, moving to a more conservative district that included parts of his old one and running in a Republican primary there.<\/p><p>\"I could have gone there and run and played the same game these other politicians are playing,” he said.<\/p><p>Kiley said he is caucusing with Republicans to avoid losing his seats on committees and that in the next Congress he will try to change rules so independent members do not lose committee seats because they do not caucus with one of the two major parties.<\/p><p>Among his backers, he noted, is onetime Democratic presidential hopeful Andrew Yang, a former technology entrepreneur who co-founded a centrist party for independents.<\/p><p>The Democrat running against Kiley, former state Sen. Richard Pan, scoffs at his rival's newfound independent status.<\/p><p>“He was a MAGA champion when he first ran for Congress, and now he's trying to say ‘I’m not,'” Pan told a crowd at a senior community in Roseville, referring to Trump's “Make America Great Again” movement.<\/p><p>Earlier that day, Pan swung by the Placer County Democratic Party office, tucked away on the second story of a brick shopping arcade in Lincoln's compact downtown.<\/p><p>Placer is a Republican county that stretches from the Sacramento suburbs to the northwestern shores of Lake Tahoe. The entire county is in Kiley's current district, but it will be divided among three districts in the new map.<\/p><p>Kathleen Crawford, chair of the county Democratic Party, was enthusiastic about the county getting carved up.<\/p><p>“It's worth it, because we have an opportunity to get Democratic representation, which has been missing from our county,” Crawford said. “I've been here 15 years, and this is my first real opportunity to elect a Democrat.”<\/p>A never-ending cycle that cuts out ‘the little people’<p>Lincoln's downtown is flanked by fruit, vegetable and flower farms, as well as new subdivisions. The community and its neighboring suburbs have become a destination for people fleeing the San Francisco Bay Area's housing prices. That has helped change the once solidly conservative area into a political battleground where skilled mapmakers can draw winnable seats for Democrats.<\/p><p>Ed Church, a 61-year-old risk manager, was eating lunch at Simple Pleasures cafe in Lincoln when he contemplated Kiley's shift. A Democrat, Church has not been a Kiley fan and he was bemused by the congressman's move.<\/p><p>“If that's how he'd been initially and not so MAGA, I probably could have supported him,” Church said of Kiley's independent status. Now Church, as a Lincoln resident, is in a purely Democratic district and will not have a say in Kiley's fate in November.

Both spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a closed-door meeting.<\/p>Regional powers accuse Israel of obstructing peace efforts<p>Ahead of Monday’s meeting, several regional powers including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates issued a statement condemning Israel’s rejection of the road map, saying that “Israel now bears responsibility for obstructing the efforts to bring peace in Gaza.” Other signers included Jordan, Pakistan, Indonesia and the ceasefire mediators.<\/p><p>The statement by foreign ministers also called on the Board of Peace and the U.S. to take “immediate and concrete measures” to keep any party from obstructing the plan’s implementation.<\/p><p>Kushner’s meeting with the Hamas leader aimed at ensuring the militant group’s commitment to the road map, particularly disarmament, before his meeting with Netanyahu, the regional official said.<\/p><p>The Hamas official said the group is committed and waiting for mediators to start the 14-day negotiation period to work out a timetable for implementation. That period requires all parties' approval of the road map to begin.<\/p><p>The Hamas official also said the Hamas leader demanded that Israel halt its attacks on Gaza and withdraw to the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/israel-gaza-yellow-line-barrier-ceasefire-941ed80f6d4398ce88916f6b08753dd8\">so-called “yellow line”<\/a> dividing the territory before beginning implementation.

The Tony Blair Institute did not comment.<\/p><p>Under the road map, Hamas would hand over weapons to the Palestinian technocratic committee meant to oversee daily operations in the territory. The committee has not yet entered Gaza. But Hamas has linked the surrender of its heaviest weapons to the creation of a Palestinian state, something Israel’s current government rejects.<\/p><p>The road map involves Hamas gradually giving up its weapons while Israeli forces halt attacks and begin withdrawing from Gaza. But Netanyahu says Israel will not retreat from any position in Gaza until Hamas has been completely disarmed.<\/p><p>That stance leaves other elements of the ceasefire, including reconstruction and the deployment of <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/israel-hamas-gaza-trump-indonesia-stabilization-force-a5e1d4a894746104c1335b6962c0ab69\">international forces<\/a> to separate Israeli forces from committee-controlled areas, on hold.<\/p><p>Netanyahu faces a challenging election on Oct. 27 as he tries to hold on to power with a coalition that includes <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/ben-gvir-israel-gaza-hamas-netanyahu-53f98e92686746f3c9bccd7cf59f26ad\">ministers taking a harsh line<\/a> on Gaza, and it's not clear whether he will take decisive steps on the ceasefire before then.

Each year, the Grammy-winning singer curates itineraries for different locations across the globe for her listeners to follow. It's “anywhere I have been and loved,” she says. It allows them to live what she refers to as “a perfect day,” but also to connect with their community offline and in person. And as she approaches its fourth edition, it has only grown larger.<\/p><p>“It became much bigger than I anticipated, really,” she says. She sought to inspire her audience to find “third spaces,” and explore some of her favorite locales: museums, <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/independent-bookstores-expanding-booksellers-association-e1f745e4e431febca8f3e122e6b8f109\">bookstores,<\/a> cafes, concerts and the like, and foster community in the process. And each year, it has only grown bigger, with fans dressing up in their favorite Laufey-themed vintage fashions to celebrate the unofficial holiday.<\/p><p>And Aug. 23 will mark the fourth annual “A Very Laufey Day.”<\/p><p>“It is a fun puzzle every year,” she says.<\/p>‘A Very Laufey Day’ 2026<p>This year, “A Very Laufey Day” will include experiences in 75 cities across 25 countries, centering on the theme of “A Celebration of the Arts.”<\/p><p>Those include performances spanning symphony orchestras, ballet, jazz, opera and theater as well as events with <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/laufey-picture-book-mei-bunny-ddbd94a03dbf0864ef1bead2a0eb36b8\">libraries, bookstores,<\/a> coffee shops, yogurt\/ice cream shops and more. Her concert film “A Night at the Symphony: Hollywood Bowl” will be screened at select theaters.

At some participating businesses, fans will be able to acquire limited edition merchandise and Laufey-themed specialty drinks.<\/p><p>“This year it was really about focusing on the arts and culture and finding ways to bring this barrier of entry down between my audience — which is mostly Gen Z and Gen A — and these kind of so-called high cultural experiences,” she says. “Whether it’s going to see an orchestra show … museums or galleries, we really want to find ways to connect with those institutions.”<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/new-york-city-ballet-anniversary-young-audience-449fc6e48f355c0fb4e05b95697e942e\">Some of these spaces<\/a> can be intimidating for younger fans, and Laufey says this year was all about making these rooms, some of her favorites, inviting to her audience.<\/p><p>“It doesn’t have to be this scary thing.

Many thought he'd be playing the antihero Magneto. The rest of the cast appeared on stage at the Honda Center arena in Anaheim, California, while Driver appeared on a big screen.<\/p><p>“Kevin and I had been talking for years about my joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and I think we finally found the perfect film,” Driver told the crowd of 12,000 via video. “So I’m very excited to be playing the role of Maaagneto!” he said before pausing, taking it back and saying, “even better, Nathaniel Millbury,” an alias for Mister Sinister.<\/p><p>Also on stage were previously announced cast members Samara Weaving, who is playing Emma Frost; Kit Connor, who is playing Scott “Cyclops” Summers; and Sadie Sink, whose role as Jean Grey was revealed by her appearance in this summer’s Marvel megahit “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.”<\/p><p>The castmates were as new to each other as they were to the fans.<\/p><p>“They’ve just met backstage for the very first time,” Feige said.<\/p><p>Navarrette had also been heavily rumored to have a role after fast becoming one of Hollywood's most sought-after actors for her striking performance as a spellbound girlfriend in the indie horror hit “Obsessed” earlier this year.<\/p><p>The “X-Men” joining the MCU became possible with Disney's 2019 acquisition of Fox's film studio.<\/p><p>Director Jake Schreier is heading the reboot. and two writers from prestige TV — “Beef” creator Lee Sung Jin and “The Bear” co-showrunner Joanna Calo — are working on the script.<\/p>Gosling cosplays as Kade Auberon in 'Star Wars' presentation.<p>Ryan Gosling and director Shawn Levy headlined the “Star Wars” part of the night with a presentation on their film “Star Wars: Starfighter,” which is getting a May, 2027 release.<\/p><p>Gosling's appearance on stage was preceded by clips of him as a child cast member of “The Mickey Mouse Club.”<\/p><p>“I owe a lot to Disney,\" Gosling said. \"Had they not looked far and wide and come to my hometown I would not be here today.

Both are set for release in 2028.<\/p><p>“Star Wars: Ahsoka” star Rosario Dawson also appeared to promote the Season 2 return of her Disney+ series, as did Hayden Christensen, who will return as a force-ghost version of her mentor Anakin Skywalker.<\/p>More Marvel with classic stars Downey, Evans, Atwell and Bettany<p>Marvel veterans also took the D23 stage as past and future “Avengers” stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr. and Hayley Atwell introduced a new trailer for “Avengers: Doomsday,” to be released Dec. 18.<\/p><p>The footage shows Downey, now playing Dr. Doom having shed his Iron Man suit, beating back Chris Hemsworth’s Thor and his hammer, and shows Evans, who is returning as Captain America, holding a baby.

The Atlanta Olympics had just ended. The internet was in its infancy.<\/p><p>In a booming music business, CDs were king, like Shakur's monumental “All Eyez on Me,\" which topped the Billboard album chart a few months earlier. It was the pinnacle of a brief hip-hop career whose legend would only grow in the following decades. His shooting was one of several momentous mid-1990s musical deaths, including those of Kurt Cobain and Shakur's archrival the Notorious B.I.G.<\/p><p>Starting Monday in Las Vegas, that September night will come under intense scrutiny again as 63-year-old <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/tupac-shakur-killing-las-vegas-trial-4529257714634e87ed258fde044f948b\">Duane “Keffe D” Davis<\/a> is tried in his killing. It is a moment that many fans and followers of the formerly cold case thought might never come.<\/p><p>Prosecutors allege Davis orchestrated Shakur’s shooting. They have charged him with one count of murder with a deadly weapon with the intent to promote, further or assist a criminal gang.<\/p><p>Davis has <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/video\/tupac-shakur-crime-homicide-duane-davis-3f5b10f249d7429c8fa6bd348135e31d\">pleaded not guilty<\/a>. His defense attorneys argue there is no evidence he directed the shooting and the state is relying on witnesses who weren't there.<\/p><p>Here's a look at key elements of the trial that is expected to last about a month.<\/p>What happened on the night Tupac was shot<p>Shakur and Death Row Records co-founder <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/suge-knight\">Marion “Suge” Knight<\/a> were in Las Vegas to watch Mike Tyson knock out Bruce Seldon at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. Just outside the fight, Shakur, Knight and their entourage got into a brawl with a group that included Davis' nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson.<\/p><p>Authorities, authors and Davis himself say the shooting was an act of retaliation. Davis' 2019 memoir “Compton Street Legend,” said the men had “crossed the line” when they beat up Anderson.<\/p><p>“We couldn’t let no record company studio gangsters do us like that,” says the book, which along with Davis interviews revived the cold case and led to Davis being charged. The co-authored memoir will be essential to the trial. Davis’ defense <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/tupac-shakur-murder-las-vegas-dae886dcf21467d334d308eaff40f0b7\">fought unsuccessfully<\/a> to get it excluded.<\/p><p>Later in the night, Shakur and Knight were heading to a nightclub where Shakur was scheduled to perform. At a red light near the Las Vegas Strip, a white Cadillac pulled up beside them, and gunfire erupted. Shakur was shot multiple times and died six days later. Knight survived with minor injuries.<\/p>Prosecutors say Davis called for shooting that was fueled by long gang feud<p>The long, lingering question of who shot Tupac may stay unanswered. But prosecutors hope to prove that Davis was the shot caller and provided the weapon.<\/p><p>He was one of four men in the Cadillac, authorities said. The other three have all died in the years since. Authorities say neither the car nor the gun used in the shooting were recovered.<\/p><p>Grand jury testimony portrayed the shooting as a culmination of a longstanding feud between rival record labels — Death Row Records and Bad Boy Records — and rival gang sects Mob Piru and South Side Compton Crips.<\/p>The key players at trial<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/tupac-shakur-trial-jury-las-vegas-a828bde9016cf616364273fc3ba6138f\">The jury<\/a> will consist of six men and 10 women who were seated Thursday.

He previously faced off with Sanft as the prosecutor in the Cote case.<\/p><p>Judge Carli Kierny was a public defender for 10 years in Clark County, Nevada, where she was elected as a judge in 2020. She is on the ballot again later this year.<\/p>Dozens of prosecution witnesses could include ‘Suge’ Knight<p>Prosecutors expect to call between 35 and 45 people to the stand. Along with police and technical witnesses, they are expected to include people who saw Shakur moments before he was shot and those who were associates of both Shakur and Davis at the time.<\/p><p>Knight, the West Coast hip-hop mogul who was once one of the most important and most feared men in music, is the only surviving eyewitness other than the defendant. He is on the witness list and may be summoned. He has said he wants no part in the trial. He is serving a <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/b25ead5aad29485695dc4c05e4d8c154\">28-year prison sentence<\/a> in California for running over and <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/b25ead5aad29485695dc4c05e4d8c154\">killing a Compton businessman<\/a> in 2015.<\/p><p>Davis wrote in his book that moments before the shooting, he and Knight “looked each other dead in the eye” like “two rams locking horns.”<\/p><p>Sean “Diddy” Combs, Knight’s East Coast counterpart and fierce foe, will not be testifying.<\/p><p>The defense intends to call only a handful of witnesses. They have not said whether Davis will testify.<\/p>The three men who didn't live to take part in the trial<p>Law enforcement authorities long suspected that the gunman was Anderson, Davis' 12-years-younger nephew who was 22 at the time. He was sitting in the backseat of the Cadillac, behind his uncle. Anderson, who denied involvement in Shakur’s killing, died two years later in what police said was an unrelated shooting at a Compton car wash.<\/p><p>Deandrae “Freaky” Smith was in the backseat sitting next to Anderson. Denvonta Lee, a former associate of Smith who talked to him about the shooting soon after it happened, told a grand jury it was Smith who fired the shots but let Anderson take credit for Shakur's death. Smith died in 2004 at age 30 from what authorities said were natural causes.<\/p><p>Terry “Bubble Up” Brown was the driver of the Cadillac.

The two superstars had already faced off twice, with Misiorowski throwing six straight fastballs over 102 mph to retire him on a popup leading off the game.<\/p><p>Misiorowski needed three pitches to fan Ohtani, and only one was a fastball. Instead, catcher William Contreras called for a curveball and slider to bookend that 102.4 mph heater.<\/p><p>“William took control and saw something, and we readjusted,” said Misiorowski, who improved to 12-5 while lowering his ERA to 1.75 with his 13th start this season allowing one or zero runs.<\/p><p>Misiorowski carried over the momentum to get Freeman swinging on five pitches, executing another slider to end the inning.<\/p><p>“I was trying to throw sliders down to get Shohei to bounce something, but, no, I got swings and misses.

Is he just a heater?’ He executed pitches,” Murphy said.<\/p><p>Ohtani drove in the Dodgers' only run with a triple in the third inning, sending a choppy ground ball bouncing over first baseman Gary Sánchez into the right-field corner, but Murphy refused to call it a mistake by Misiorowski.<\/p><p>“You want Ohtani to hit one into the ground, you know what I mean?” Murphy said.<\/p><p>Misiorowski relished the challenge of facing Ohtani at Dodger Stadium for a national TV audience again, having done so in Game 3 of the NL Championship Series last October. He took the loss in a 3-1 defeat after allowing one run in five innings as the Dodgers went on to sweep the Brewers before claiming a second straight World Series title.<\/p><p>“That was fun. Being in the postseason, it was a different animal,” Misiorowski said. “Just gave me more confidence going into this year.”<\/p><p>It would not be a surprise if the Dodgers and Brewers meet up again this fall. Milwaukee is assured to come out of the four-game series with a better record that Los Angeles by having won two of the first three in the showdown of division leaders, a crucial result as they jockey for home-field advantage.<\/p><p>Having seen Misiorowski rise to the occasion on an August afternoon, Murphy expects his burgeoning ace will be ready should the teams face off again with greater stakes.<\/p><p>“Miz is very, very capable, and he's mentally ready for these challenges,” Murphy said.<\/p><p>___<\/p><p>AP MLB: <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/MLB\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/MLB<\/a><\/p>","byCredit":"Associated Press","author":"By DAN GREENSPAN","endStory":"","commentsEnabled":null,"commentsCloseDate":"3025-12-17T18:29:12.662211+00:00","displayUpdateDate":"Sun, 16 Aug 2026 03:33:49 GMT","rights":0,"pubDate":"Sun, 16 Aug 2026 03:33:49 GMT","expirationDate":"3025-12-17T18:29:12.662211+00:00","body":"<p>Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski, left, celebrates after striking out Los Angeles Dodgers' Tommy Edman during the sixth inning of a baseball game Saturday, Aug. 15, 2026, in Los Angeles.

He was 83.<\/p><p>He died at his home in Bradenton, Florida, on Saturday night, agent Mike Maguire said Sunday. He had been in hospice care.<\/p><p>On Aug. 8, the New York Yankees released a social media post in which John wrote that he wanted to say goodbye to everyone, including friends and fans who followed him throughout his career, saying, “I will never forget you.”<\/p><p>John was a four-time All-Star with a record of 288-231 and a 3.34 ERA during a career that stretched from 1963 to 1989. He pitched for Cleveland, the Chicago White Sox, the Los Angeles Dodgers, the New York Yankees, the California Angels and the Oakland Athletics.<\/p><p>The left-hander was 31 years old when he tore the ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow in 1974, a death knell for pitchers' careers to that point.<\/p><p>John allowed Dr. Frank Jobe, the Dodgers’ team physician, to replace the ligament with a tendon from his right forearm. Jobe gave the surgery 100-to-1 odds of being successful.<\/p>John was a great pitcher, but his elbow surgery made him a baseball legend<p>The procedure had been done on others before, although it was usually performed on wrists and hands. John was the first pitcher to have it done on his elbow.<\/p><p>More than <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/1gQujXQQGOVNaiuwSN680Hq-FDVsCwvN-3AazykOBON0\/edit#gid=0\">2,600 big leaguers<\/a> and thousands more amateurs have since had UCL reconstructions, better known as Tommy John surgery. It’s been a godsend for many of baseball’s greatest stars, including two-way sensation <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/ohtani-dodgers-elattrache-9a87de3cf0ea31d1bb78420d6b505cc7\">Shohei Ohtani<\/a>, three-time Cy Young Award winner Justin Verlander and even Philadelphia Phillies slugger Bryce Harper.<\/p><p>“If you put it in dollars and cents, I think there’s no question that Tommy John is the most valuable reconstructive procedure there is,” Dodgers team physician Dr. Neal ElAttrache told The Associated Press in 2024.<\/p><p>Born Thomas Edward John Jr. on May 22, 1943, in Terre Haute, Indiana, he was a top baseball and basketball player at the city’s Gerstmeyer High. He graduated in 1961 as valedictorian but did not give the commencement speech because of a stutter. Despite being recruited by the University of Kentucky to play basketball, John chose baseball and signed with Cleveland.<\/p><p>“The day I left for my first job as a pitcher, my father looked at me & said, ‘Good luck, Tommy. Just remember one thing: whether you make it big in the big leagues or you don’t, you’ll always just be Tommy John from Terre Haute, Indiana.’ I’ve never forgotten those words,” John wrote in his Aug. 8 post.<\/p><p>John recorded 2,245 strikeouts but never led either league in wins or strikeouts. John had the second-most wins of any pitcher since 1900 not to be elected to the Hall of Fame. From 1995 through 2009, John was on the Hall of Fame ballot, but he never received more than 31.7% of the votes, falling well short of the 75% required for election.<\/p>John won more games after his eponymous surgery<p>Known for his longevity, John was the opening day starter for both the 1966 Chicago White Sox and the 1989 New York Yankees. He won 124 games before his UCL repair and 164 after. His final appearance came days after his 46th birthday.<\/p><p>He made his major league debut on Sept. 6, 1963, pitching one inning in relief for Cleveland.<\/p><p>He was traded to the White Sox in 1965 and worked his way into the starting rotation. The following year, he tied for the American League lead with five shutouts and in 1967, his six shutouts led the AL.<\/p><p>In 1971, he was traded to the Dodgers.<\/p><p>In 1974, John had a 13-3 record and led the National League in victories going into the All-Star break. He was pitching against the Montreal Expos when he permanently damaged the UCL in his left arm. After a month, the injury had not improved.<\/p><p>During the four-hour surgery on Sept. 25, 1974, Jobe made holes in the humerus and ulna bones of John’s left arm and used anchors to insert the tendon in a figure-eight pattern.<\/p><p>At first, John’s left hand was shriveled and he lacked feeling in several of his fingers because of damage to the ulnar nerve. Jobe performed a second procedure to reroute the nerve that was necessary to John’s full recovery.<\/p><p>John’s arm was in a cast for four months. He had recovered the full range of motion in his left arm by spring training of 1975, and spent that season resting, healing and rebuilding strength in his arm. John worked with fellow Dodgers pitcher Mike Marshall, who had a doctorate in kinesiology, on learning a different grip.<\/p><p>That September he made five appearances during an offseason instructional league, working his way up to seven innings by his final game.<\/p><p>John resumed pitching for the Dodgers in 1976 as the fourth starter in their rotation. He allowed three runs in five innings and took the loss in his first start against Atlanta, the first time any pitcher had started a game following UCL reconstructive surgery.<\/p><p>John donated the original cast from his surgery to the Smithsonian Institution in June 2022. His teammates on the 1974 Dodgers signed it, as well as Jobe and the team’s Hall of Fame announcer Vin Scully.<\/p><p>The procedure has become so widely known that in 2019, Merriam-Webster added the term to its dictionary.<\/p><p>John made 31 starts for the Dodgers in 1976, posting a 10-10 record, a 3.09 ERA, 91 strikeouts, 61 walks and 207 hits allowed in 207 innings.<\/p><p>In 1977, he won 20 games for the first time in his career, finishing with a 20-7 record. He finished second behind Philadelphia’s Steve Carlton in voting for the NL Cy Young Award.<\/p>John and his family had mixed feelings about the legacy of his operation<p>Over 50 years later, Tommy John surgery is as much a part of baseball as peanuts and hot dogs. Advanced training methods are helping <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/tommy-john-elbow-teenagers-fe9c4e7dcf105d517340dbdcc297769b\">pitchers of all ages<\/a> throw harder than ever. They take comfort knowing a torn UCL won’t necessarily end their careers.<\/p><p>“I am sick my name is attached to a surgery happening in kids more than pros,” John tweeted in July 2018.<\/p><p>John’s oldest son, Tommy III, became a chiropractor who wrote a book suggesting ways to prevent young athletes from having to undergo major sports-related surgery similar to what his father endured.<\/p><p>After his pitching career ended, John worked as a broadcaster for the Minnesota Twins and Yankees in the 1990s. He managed the Bridgeport (Connecticut) Bluefish from 2007-09.<\/p><p>John was hospitalized in December 2020 due to COVID-19 and later had Guillain-Barré syndrome in which a person’s immune system attacks their nerves. John told the New York Post in May 2022 that he was paralyzed in his lower extremities for several months.<\/p><p>John and his wife Sally Simmons had four children: Tamara, Tommy III, Travis and Taylor, who died of a prescription drug overdose at 28 in 2010. The couple divorced in 2013.<\/p><p>Besides his children, he is survived by his second wife, Cheryl, and son-in-law Patrick Mannelly, a retired NFL long snapper who played 16 years for the Chicago Bears.<\/p><p>___<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/mlb\">See AP’s full MLB coverage here<\/a><\/p>","byCredit":"Associated Press","author":"By BETH HARRIS","endStory":"","commentsEnabled":null,"commentsCloseDate":"3025-12-17T18:29:12.662401+00:00","displayUpdateDate":"Sun, 16 Aug 2026 18:15:42 GMT","rights":0,"pubDate":"Sun, 16 Aug 2026 18:15:42 GMT","expirationDate":"3025-12-17T18:29:12.662401+00:00","body":"<p>FILE - Los Angeles Dodgers former pitcher Tommy John praises his late friend, Dr. Frank Jobe during a memorial service at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, April 7, 2014.
