In the video, Fuentes opens the door and points what appears to be a spraying device toward the camera. The Berwyn Police Department confirmed that it got a call Sunday involving Fuentes and Rose. Fuentes has faced a wave of backlash for a post on X on Nov. 5, when he wrote, “Your body, my choice. Afterward, many users on X began spreading Fuentes’ personal information online, including his home address and pictures of his house, writing, “Your house, our choice.” Since then, Google Maps has blurred its picture of Fuentes’ house. Rose wrote that she was inspired to “pop over there” given Fuentes’ history of antisemitic and white supremacist statements.

For some who’ve run afoul of Trump, the election results have sparked fresh worries that he may enter office looking for retribution. During the campaign, Trump has made different statements about whether he might target people who’ve upset him. Rep. Jim Jordan, a staunch Trump ally in Congress, said he doesn’t expect any of the prosecutors to face reprisals over Trump investigations. One former Trump White House official who has publicly spoken against Trump described feeling “scared” and declined to let their name be used. Now Fanone says he is hunkering down in his Virginia mountain-area home for fear that Trump could weaponize the police.

☆ Yankees fans pry ball out of Mookie Betts’ glove, get ejected from their seats in World Series Game 4

Two New York Yankees fans were ejected from their right field seats during Game 4 of the World Series after ripping the ball out of Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts’ glove. Betts’ glove landed on top of the outfield wall as he caught the ball, and two fans sitting against the wall reached for the ball. One fan tried to take Betts’ glove off his left hand while the second fan swatted Betts’ right hand away. The first fan pried the ball out of Betts’ glove, but the ball fell onto the field. Fan interference was called on this play where a Yankee fan tried to take the ball out of Mookie Betts' glove after an out.

In Week 5, scoring returned — and, in several cases, it happened in some of the oddest and most unexpected ways. The Jacksonville Jaguars’ Tank Bigsby was first hit 14 yards from the end zone by one Indianapolis Colts tackler and appeared to be wrapped up by another at the 11. Yet, with two teammates pushing him forward, he wound up with a touchdown instead of a short gain, a score that became part of Jacksonville’s first victory. Two minutes before halftime, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love dropped back into his end zone and was shoved with two hands — but not sacked for a safety — by a chasing Rams defender. Officially, he went 101 yards, 18 yards longer than Seattle’s previous franchise record for a fumble return.

In the mifepristone case, Kacsmaryk’s initial ruling was notable not just for its sweeping nature but in how he embraced the anti-abortion movement’s sensational rhetoric about the procedure. The groups fighting mifepristone argue that the Supreme Court’s decision shouldn’t affect the states’ ability to sue. Both the FDA and several medical groups, including the American Medical Association, told the Supreme Court that mifepristone is safe. But the Supreme Court knocked that argument aside, noting that federal law already allows doctors to avoid performing procedures that violate their conscience. Adam Unikowsky, a veteran Supreme Court litigator who has closely followed the mifepristone case, predicted it will be hard for the states to get the issue back before the Supreme Court.
