Radiohead returns after 7 years, announce 20 new tour dates
The British rock band last performed in 2018.
NEW YORK — Something is in the water in England. After a summer defined by the Oasis reunion, yet another beloved British rock band is set to return to the live stage: Radiohead.
The band — made up of vocalist Thom Yorke, guitarist/keyboardist Jonny Greenwood, guitarist Ed O’Brien, bassist Colin Greenwood and drummer Phil Selway — have 20 shows on the books, taking place in five cities across Europe: Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen and Berlin this November and December. They will perform four nights in each city.
Radiohead last performed in 2018, in support of their last album, 2016's “A Moon Shaped Pool.” It is unclear if the band is preparing a new release of original material, but earlier this month, they did announce a new live album, “Hail to the Thief — Live Recordings 2003-2009,” arriving Oct. 31.
“Last year, we got together to rehearse, just for the hell of it. After a seven-year pause, it felt really good to play the songs again and reconnect with a musical identity that has become lodged deep inside all five of us,” Selway said in a statement. “It also made us want to play some shows together, so we hope you can make it to one of the upcoming dates. For now, it will just be these ones but who knows where this will all lead.”
Registration for tickets begins Friday at Radiohead.com and will be open for 60 hours. The regular ticket sale will begin a week later, on Sept. 15.
In the years since their last live performance, the members of Radiohead have been busy. Yorke and Jonny Greenwood's art rock spinoff project, The Smile, has released three albums. Colin Greenwood joined Nick Cave's live band. O’Brien released his debut solo album, “Earth” in 2020 and in 2023, Selway released his third solo album, “Strange Dance.”

Trump suggests he may deploy troops to New Orleans
Unlike other Democrat-run cities where Trump has suggested he may deploy troops to help fight crime, the governor of Louisiana is a Republican.
NEW ORLEANS — After saying he was prepared to send the National Guard into Baltimore and Chicago to help fight crime, Trump is now saying he’s mulling doing similar in New Orleans.
“So we’re making a determination now, do we go to Chicago?” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “Do we go to a place like New Orleans, where we have a great governor, Jeff Landry, who wants us to come in and straighten out a very nice section of this country that’s become quite, you know, quite tough, quite bad.”
State and local officials, many of whom are top Democrats, have sharply opposed troop presence in Chicago and Baltimore. Landry, though, is a Republican.
The president added “you have New Orleans, which has a crime problem. We’ll straighten that out in about two weeks.”

Appeals court rules Trump cannot use Alien Enemies Act to deport members of Venezuelan gang
A three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with immigrant rights groups that Trump improperly invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court panel ruled Tuesday that President Donald Trump cannot use an 18th century wartime law to speed the deportations of people his administration accuses of membership in a Venezuelan gang, blocking a signature administration push that is destined for a final showdown at the U.S. Supreme Court.
A three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, one of the most conservative federal appeals courts in the country, agreed in a 2-1 decision with immigrant rights lawyers and lower court judges who argued the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 was not intended to be used against gangs like Tren de Aragua, the Venezuelan group Trump targeted in his March invocation.
Lee Gelernt, who argued the case for the ACLU, said Tuesday: “The Trump administration’s use of a wartime statute during peacetime to regulate immigration was rightly shut down by the court. This is a critically important decision reining in the administration’s view that it can simply declare an emergency without any oversight by the courts.”
The administration deported people designated as Tren de Aragua members to a notorious prison in El Salvador where, it argued, U.S. courts could not order them freed.
In a deal announced in July, more than 250 of the deported migrants returned to Venezuela.
The Alien Enemies Act has only been used three times before in U.S. history, all during declared wars — in the War of 1812 and the two World Wars. The Trump administration unsuccessfully argued that courts cannot second-guess the president’s determination that Tren de Aragua was connected to Venezuela’s government and represented a danger to the United States, meriting use of the act.
The ruling can be appealed to the full 5th Circuit or directly to the U.S. Supreme Court, which is likely to make the ultimate decision on the issue.

Disney to pay $10 million fine after FTC says it allowed data collection on kids
According to the complaint, Disney failed to properly label some videos that it uploaded to YouTube as “Made for Kids.”
WASHINGTON — The Walt Disney Co. will pay a $10 million fine to settle a Federal Trade Commission lawsuit alleging it allowed personal data to be collected on kids under 13, violating federal law.
The FTC said Tuesday Disney violated the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, or COPPA, which requires kid-oriented apps and websites to get parents’ consent before collecting personal information of children under 13.
According to the complaint, Disney failed to properly label some videos that it uploaded to YouTube as “Made for Kids.” The mislabeling allowed Disney, through YouTube, to collect personal data from children under 13 viewing child-directed videos and use that data for targeted advertising to children, the FTC said. That's because, since the videos weren't labeled as being for kids, they included targeted advertising.
Representatives for Disney did not immediately return a message for comment.
Google, the parent company of YouTube, agreed to pay $170 million in a similar settlement in 2019.

Trump says he will order federal intervention in Chicago and Baltimore despite local opposition
Asked by reporters in the Oval Office if he had decided to send National Guard troops to Chicago, Trump said, “We’re going in,” but added. “I didn’t say when.”
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he will direct federal law enforcement intervention to combat crime in Chicago and Baltimore, despite staunch opposition from state and local officials in both cities.
Asked by reporters in the Oval Office if he had decided to send National Guard troops to Chicago, Trump said, “We’re going in,” but added. “I didn’t say when.”
“I have an obligation," the president said. ”This isn't a political thing."
Trump has already sent National Guard troops into Washington, D.C., and federalized the police force in the nation's capital. More recently, he has said he plans similar moves in other cities, particularly those run by Democratic officials.
The president praised Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser for working with federal forces, but criticized Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, who has said crime in Chicago doesn’t require federal intervention.
Trump said he’d love to have Pritzker call and say, “Send in the troops” — even though the governor has repeatedly said he won’t be doing that.
“If the governor of Illinois would call up, call me up, I would love to do it,” Trump said. “Now, we’re going to do it anyway. We have the right to do it.”
Pritzker deemed Trump’s comments to call him for help as “unhinged.”
“No, I will not call the president asking him to send troops to Chicago,” he said at his downtown Chicago office. “I’ve made that clear already.”
Trump also said he has an “obligation to protect this country, and that includes Baltimore.” Local officials there have joined Democratic Maryland Gov. Wes Moore in similarly opposing federal law enforcement intervention.
Trump said his efforts in Washington have ensured it “is now a safe zone. We have no crime.”
The White House announced separately Tuesday that more than 1,650 people have been arrested since the Trump administration first mobilized federal officials on Aug. 7.
“And this city was really bad," Trump said. He said, “we're really proud of” federal efforts to curb crime in Washington.

Trump denies claims about objects thrown from White House windows, blames AI
The viral video wasn't the only thing the president dispelled during the press conference Tuesday.
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump denied claims circulating over the weekend about a video seemingly showing objects being thrown from a White House window.
A reporter showed the Republican president the viral video during a press conference Tuesday where he announced the relocation of the U.S. Space Command.
Trump was quick to deny the claims, saying that it wasn't possible as the windows of the White House are sealed because they're bulletproof. He then claimed the video was AI-generated and that artificial intelligence "creates things."
“If something happens that’s really bad, maybe I’ll have to just blame AI,” he said during the press conference.
The president's comments contradict what White House officials told multiple media outlets over the weekend.
The White House said that the video showing an item being thrown out of a window was a contractor performing maintenance. It was not clear why there was a discrepancy between their version of events and the president’s.
The viral video wasn't the only thing the president dispelled during the press conference Tuesday, his first public event in a week.
Fake rumors about Trump's death swirled on social media, despite him being spotted at his golf course during the weekend.
When asked seen the weekend social media posts indicating he was no longer living, the president initially said “Really? I didn’t see that” and then talked about his activities over recent day.
Trump said despite a lack of public appearances up until Tuesday that he did “numerous” interviews and had some “pretty poignant” posts on his social media site. The president said he went to visit “some people” at his golf club in Sterling, Virginia as well.
“I was very active over the weekend,” Trump said.

Trump says US has carried out strike against drug-carrying vessel that departed from Venezuela
The U.S. had recently announced plans to boost its maritime force in the waters off Venezuela to combat threats from Latin American drug cartels.
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the U.S. has carried out a strike in the southern Caribbean against a drug-carrying vessel that departed from Venezuela.
The president offered scant details on the operation.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on X that the vessel was being operated by a “designated narco-terrorist organization.” He described the operation as a lethal strike.
The U.S. had recently announced plans to boost its maritime force in the waters off Venezuela to combat threats from Latin American drug cartels.
The U.S. has not signaled any planned land incursion by the thousands of personnel being deployed. Still, President Nicolás Maduro's government has responded by deploying troops along Venezuela's coast and border with neighboring Colombia, as well as by urging Venezuelans to enlist in a civilian militia.
The press office of Venezuela’s government did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the announcement.
The Pentagon did not offer any immediate comment on the reported incident.

Basketball Hall of Famer George Raveling, who influenced Michael Jordan’s Nike deal, dies at 88
Raveling was instrumental in convincing Michael Jordan to sign with Nike, leading to a landmark contract.
WASHINGTON D.C., DC — George Raveling, a Hall of Fame basketball coach who played a role in Michael Jordan signing a landmark endorsement deal with Nike, has died. He was 88.
Raveling's family said Tuesday in a statement that he had “faced cancer with courage and grace.”
“There are no words to fully capture what George meant to his family, friends, colleagues, former players, and assistants — and to the world,” the family statement read. “He will be profoundly missed, yet his aura, energy, divine presence, and timeless wisdom live on in all those he touched and transformed.”
Raveling, who was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2015, had a career record of 335-293 from 1972-94 at Washington State, Iowa and Southern California. He had a losing record in his first season at each school before making multiple trips to the NCAA Tournament.
His success at those programs landed Raveling on the U.S. Olympic basketball staffs in 1984 and 1988.
Jordan was on the 1984 team that won gold at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, and Raveling helped convince him to sign with Nike. He introduced Jordan to Sonny Vaccaro at Nike, which helped lead to a contract that gave Jordan his own brand, made him millions of dollars and changed the athletic apparel industry.
Marlon Wayans portrayed Raveling in the 2023 movie “Air” that focused on Nike's courtship of Jordan.
Raveling also owned the original copy of the “I Have a Dream” speed by Martin Luther King Jr. He was working security at the 1963 March on Washington in which King delivered one of the most famous speeches in American history.
As King was exiting, Raveling saw him and asked if he could have the speech, and the reverend handed it to him. Raveling held on to the copy until 2021, when he donated it to his alma mater, Villanova.
He played at Villanova from 1957-60, averaged 12.3 points and 14.6 rebounds over his last two seasons. The Philadelphia Warriors drafted Raveling in the eighth round in 1960, but he didn't play in the NBA.
“The finest human being, inspiring mentor, most loyal alum and a thoughtful loving friend,” Jay Wright, who coached Villanova to national championships in 2016 and 2018, posted on X. “Coach Raveling lived his life for others, His heart was restless and kind and now rests In the lord!”
Raveling was involved in a serious car crash while coaching USC in 1994, breaking nine ribs, his collarbone and pelvis.

Chloë Grace Moretz and Kate Harrison are married
The couple, who began dating in 2018, confirmed their engagement on New Year's Day.
WASHINGTON — Actor Chloë Grace Moretz and model and photographer Kate Harrison are married.
The two, who began dating in 2018, got hitched in a private ceremony over the Labor Day weekend. No location was revealed. Both wore gowns by Nicolas Ghesquière for Louis Vuitton, Moretz in baby blue and Harrison in traditional white.
Moretz shared the news on Instagram, and Vogue had followed along on their fashion journey during fittings in Paris for their looks. Moretz, a Louis Vuitton ambassador, thanked Ghesquière and the fashion house as she showed off their designer duds:
“Thank you doesn’t even begin to cut it, but, thank you. Your vision made our day all the more meaningful. x”
Moretz wore long blue gloves and a matching veil with her look featuring spaghetti straps and a bodice ruffle. Harrison's gown included a bit of sparkle in all-over flowing embroidery. She wore a birdcage veil around her face that went long at the back.
Moretz got her start as a child star. She went on to star in “Carrie” and “The Miseducation of Cameron Post.” Harrison has modeled for J. Crew and Topshop.
They confirmed their engagement on New Year's Day by showing off their diamond rings, choosing a Victorian vibe for both from Elizabeth Potts at Moon Stone.
“We are overwhelmed in a good way,” Moretz told Vogue while sitting in a hair and makeup chair in Paris just before seeing her completed wedding gown and the couple's white after-party looks for the first time.
Moretz wore a custom jacket and trousers for the after-party, a white cowboy hat on her head. The ensemble was inspired by a 2019 Louis Vuitton runway look. She explained to Vogue:
“I remember seeing the runway version, and it had this cowboy hat, and to (now) see it created to my proportions, it’s just so beautiful. And a little bit of ‘Yee-haw, baby!’”

Rescuers in ‘race against time’ to reach Afghan quake survivors as death toll passes 1,400
Rough terrain is hampering rescue and relief efforts, forcing Taliban authorities to send in dozens of commandos to evacuate the injured from hard-to-reach places.
JALALABAD, Afghanistan — The death toll from a major earthquake in eastern Afghanistan passed 1,400 on Tuesday, with more than 3,000 people injured, Zabihullah Mujahid, a Taliban government spokesman, said on social platform X.
Rescuers are scrambling in a “race against time” to reach the mountainous and remote area devastated by Sunday's powerful 6.0 magnitude earthquake, a U.N. official said, warning of an exponential rise in the number of casualties.
The quake struck in several provinces, causing extensive damage. It flattened villages and trapped people under the rubble of homes that were constructed mostly of mud bricks and wood and were unable to withstand the shock.
Rough terrain is hampering rescue and relief efforts, forcing Taliban authorities to send in dozens of commandos to evacuate the injured from places inaccessible by helicopter and other transport.
The casualty figures provided by the spokesman, Mujahid, were just for Kunar province.
“We cannot afford to forget the people of Afghanistan who are facing multiple crises, multiple shocks, and the resilience of the communities has been saturated,” Indrika Ratwatte, the U.N.'s resident coordinator for Afghanistan, told a media briefing on Tuesday.
He urged the international community to step forward. “These are life and death decisions while we race against time to reach people.”
It is the third major earthquake since the Taliban seized power in 2021, and the latest crisis to beset Afghanistan, which is reeling from deep cuts to aid funding, a weak economy, and millions of people forcibly returned from Iran and Pakistan.
Ratwatte said that when the walls of wooden and mud homes collapse, the roof falls on to the occupants, causing injury or death. While the area was low-density, the earthquake struck when everybody was asleep.
“If you were to model it based on what has happened before, clearly there’s no question that the casualty rate is going to be rather exponential,” he said.
The Taliban government, which is only recognized by Russia, has appealed for assistance from foreign governments and the humanitarian sector.
However, help for Afghanistan is in short supply due to competing global crises and reduced aid budgets in donor countries.
There is also opposition toward the Taliban government’s restrictive policies on Afghan girls and women, including a ban on them working for nongovernmental organizations. Earlier this year, the U.S. gutted aid money to Afghanistan, partly due to concerns that money was going to the Taliban government.
Kate Carey, who is the deputy head of the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in Afghanistan, said more than 420 health facilities had closed or were suspended due to the “massive reduction” in funding, with 80 of them in the eastern region, the heart of Sunday’s quake.
“The consequence is that the remaining facilities are overwhelmed, have insufficient supplies and personnel, and are not as close to the affected populations as the more local facilities at a time when providing emergency trauma care is needed in the first 24 to 72 hours of the earthquake response,” said Carey.
Associated Press journalist Jamey Keaten contributed to this report from Geneva.

JBLM soldier sentenced for sexually assaulting college student in barracks
A military judge sentenced Pvt. Deron Gordon to over six years in prison for sexually assaulting a college student.
JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. — A Joint Base Lewis-McChord soldier who sexually assaulted a college student in the barracks in 2024 was sentenced to more than six years in prison Friday.
A military judge sentenced Pvt. Deron Gordon, 20, to six years and three months in prison after he pleaded guilty to one specification each of sexual assault, abusive sexual contact and as a principal to indecent recording.
Gordon was previously charged with additional crimes, but those were dismissed as part of the plea agreement.
Gordon is one of four soldiers who were charged in in connection to the sexual assault of a college student, who is now a commissioned Army officer, in October 2024.
When Gordon pleaded guilty, he said that he and another soldier followed the college student into a bedroom after she had been drinking with them. He said she was unstable walking into the room and when they went inside she was on the bed and not responsive.
Gordon said he and the other soldier each proceeded to have sex with her and they filmed each other sexually assaulting her on Snapchat.
As part of his sentencing, Gordon will be reduced in rank to E-1 and dishonorably discharged from the Army.
Gordon will serve the remainder of his sentencing at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Once he is released, Gordon must register as a sex offender.
The three other soldiers who were charged in the incident are at different points in the legal process, and their cases are being treated separately.
If you or someone you know has been a victim of sexual assault, you can call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673. Additional resources are available on the Washington State Department of Health's website.
