Washington – The CBS News vice presidential debate is set for Oct. 1 in New York City, with Democrat Tim Walls of Minnesota and GOP Sen. of Ohio. Both JD Vance agreed to participate.

The discussion will be moderated by “CBS Evening News” anchor and managing editor Norah O’Donnell and “Face the Nation” moderator and CBS News chief foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan.

On Wednesday, CBS News proposed four dates for the debate between the two vice presidential candidates: September 17, September 24, October 1 and October 8. The Harris-Wallace campaign quickly agreed to the October 1 date.

“See you on October 1st, JD,” Walls said Wrote in X. A campaign official said Walls is “looking forward to debating JD Vance — if he shows up.”

On Thursday, Vance posted on social media that he accepted the Oct. 1 CBS News debate and said he would like to host the Sept. 18 debate on CNN.

“The American people deserve as many debates as possible, which is why President Trump has already challenged Kamala to three of them,” Vance said. wrote In X. “Not only will I host the CBS debate on October 1st, but I will also host the CNN debate on September 18th. I look forward to seeing you at both!”

In an interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham on Wednesday evening, Vance said he would be open to debating Walls on Oct. 1, but did not set a date.

“We’re definitely going to have a debate on Tim Walls. We just heard about this thing about three hours ago, so we’re going to talk to him and figure out when we can have a debate,” Vance said. “We really want to see the debates, see the moderators, talk a little bit about the rules.”

Vance continued: “I strongly suspect we’re going to be there on October 1st, but we’re not going to have one of these fake debates, Laura, where they don’t have an audience, where they don’t. Really set the parameters right where we can have a good exchange of ideas.” can.”

Vance also said he wanted to discuss it with Walls more than once.

“Hopefully we’re going to see him on October 1st, but I hope we’re going to see him sooner or later because I think it’s important to see the American people actually debate our ideas,” he told Ingraham.

Vice Presidential Debate

Since the date for the vice presidential debate was in the spring, CBS News first extended the invitation to both presidential campaigns. In May, President Biden’s campaign said his running mate at the time, Kamala Harris, was ready to face the Republican vice presidential nominee on either July 23 or August 13.

Former President Donald Trump He chose Vance As his companion on July 15, the first day of the Republican National Convention. His campaign soon began in August. The vice president declined to engage in a debate before the Democratic National Convention on the 19th, saying it would be premature to do so as Harris could end up being the Democratic nominee.

Mr. Biden Dropped out of the competition on July 21, weeks after his own poor showing in a debate with Trump. Harris quickly gathered the support he needed to replace him on the Democratic ticket and formally secured the nomination last week. He named Walls as his running mate, finalizing the vice presidential picks for both campaigns and beginning the momentum for the election in November.

Last week, Trump He said CBS News will cover the vice presidential debate, and Vance has “really stepped up” and is “doing a great job.” He also said he was willing to participate in three debates with Harris in September, hosted by Fox News, ABC News and NBC News. The Harris campaign had previously promised a debate, a Sept. 10 meeting on ABC.

This year is the first election cycle since 1988 in which the debates are not moderated by the Nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates. In 2022, the Republican National Committee Voted to ban GOP nominees From participating in the discussions held by the Commission, Mr. Organizers of two meetings between Biden and Trump in 2020 have accused them of bias.

Instead, television networks are left to negotiate dates and terms for debates directly with presidential campaigns. CNN reported in June that Mr. It held the first debate of the cycle between Biden and Trump, which began much earlier than in previous election years. CNN allowed other networks to host the debate on their airwaves, in keeping with the practice for debates moderated by the Commission.

Have you agreed that subscribing to Disney’s popular streaming service means never suing the entertainment giant for anything?

That’s what Disney is arguing in a wrongful-death lawsuit involving a 42-year-old New York doctor whose family says he suffered a fatal allergic reaction after eating at an Irish pub in Disney Springs in October.

Disney is asking a Florida court to dismiss a lawsuit filed against it by Jeffrey Piccolo, husband of Kanokporn Tangsuan, a family medicine specialist at NYU Langone’s Carl Place office on Long Island.

The company argues that Piccolo agreed to settle any lawsuits against Disney out of court when it signed on to Disney+’s month-long trial in 2019.

“The terms of use provided with the subscriber agreement include a binding arbitration clause,” the company wrote in its motion. “The first page of the Subscriber Agreement states, in all capital letters, ‘Any dispute between you and us, except for small claims, shall be subject to a class action waiver and shall be resolved by private binding arbitration.'”

Disney also notes in its response that Piccolo agreed to a similar arbitration arrangement when he created an account on Disney’s website and app prior to the ill-fated theme park visit.

But Piccolo’s lawyer argued in a response filed earlier this month that it is “ridiculous” to believe that Disney+’s more than 150 million subscribers have permanently waived all rights to sue the company and its affiliates. To do with the popular streaming service.

“The notion that the terms agreed to by a consumer when creating a Disney+ free trial account would forever bar a consumer’s right to a jury trial in any dispute with a Disney affiliate or subsidiary is so outrageously unfair and unreasonable that it shocks the judicial conscience. This court should not enforce such an agreement,” Piccolo’s attorney Brian Denny wrote in an Aug. 2 filing.

Disney, in its May 31 filing, argued that it was “immaterial” whether Piccolo actually reviewed the terms of service. It also noted that the arbitration provision covers “all disputes,” including disputes involving The Walt Disney Company or its subsidiaries.

Arbitration allows people to resolve disputes without going to court and usually involves a neutral arbitrator who reviews arguments and evidence before making a binding decision.

Disney said late Wednesday it was “deeply saddened” by the family’s loss, but insisted the Irish pub was not owned or operated by the company. The company’s position in the case will not affect the plaintiff’s claims against the restaurant, it added.

“We are defending ourselves against the plaintiff’s attorney’s attempt to include us in their lawsuit against the restaurant,” the company wrote in an emailed statement.

The Irish Pub on Raglan Road, Disney Springs, where Tangchuan dined, did not respond to an email seeking comment Wednesday. Disney Springs is owned by Disney, which leases some space in the outdoor dining, shopping and entertainment complex to other companies.

Piccolo’s lawsuit, filed in February, alleges that he, his wife and her mother decided to eat at Raglan Road on Oct. 5, 2023, because Disney’s website said it had “allergen-free food.”

After repeatedly informing their server that he has severe allergies to nuts and dairy, Tangchuan ordered vegetarian fries, scallops, onion rings and a vegetarian shepherd’s pie.

The employee later “guaranteed” that the food was allergen-free, even though some items were not served with “allergen-free flags.”

According to the lawsuit, about 45 minutes after finishing dinner, Tangchuan had trouble breathing while shopping, collapsed and eventually died at the hospital.

An autopsy conducted by the medical examiner determined that “she died of anaphylaxis due to an increase in the amount of dairy products and nuts in her system.”

A hearing on Disney’s petition is scheduled for Oct. 2 in county court in Orlando. Piccolo is seeking more than $50,000 in his lawsuit.

Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy has been ruled out for the season after successful surgery on the meniscus in his right knee, coach Kevin O’Connell announced Wednesday. McCarthy was evaluated for knee soreness after reporting the injury Monday afternoon.

“He underwent that meniscus surgery this morning,” O’Connell told reporters. “It revealed that a repair was necessary, ending JJ’s 2024 season.”

The Vikings selected McCarthy out of Michigan with the 10th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Sam Darnold, entering his seventh season in the league, will assume the starting quarterback duties in McCarthy’s absence when Minnesota opens the regular season on the road against the New York Giants on Sept. 8.

“It’s going to be a little bump in the road,” O’Connell said. “Other quarterbacks in our league have gone through similar things and come back stronger and better than ever. It’s not just my expectation, but I know it’s going to happen for JJ.”

O’Connell has yet to name a starting quarterback for the regular season, but McCarthy has shown potential for the position. The Vikings’ organization and fan base will have to wait a season to see the college football national champion QB take his talents to the NFL.

“Our fan base and everybody should be excited about having our young franchise quarterback, I believe, in the building,” O’Connell said.

What was O’Connell’s reaction Wednesday afternoon?

He was certainly disappointed and upset considering the trajectory he felt McCarthy had on Sunday, going 11-for-17 against the Raiders. O’Connell also lamented that his team, which had suffered blow after blow in several respects (the tragic death of Kyrie Jackson and McGee Blackmon’s ACL), was now crushed again.

O’Connell spoke candidly, saying he enjoys watching the development of McCarthy, still 21, every day. He was part of a practice that brought him back to his days as a quarterbacks coach early in his NFL coaching career. O’Connell expressed confidence in the 2024 team and said he believes the Vikings culture and roster are built to last. But he was definitely down for understandable reasons. — Alec Lewis, writer of the Vikings beat

What does this mean for 2024?

It’s already shaping up to be somewhat of a transition season. According to Over the Cap, the Vikings absorbed about $60 million in dead cap money. They had long planned to switch from old and expensive players to developing youngsters. Darnold was brought in as a bridge to McCarthy, and while he’s always likely to start Week 1, the responsibility weighs heavily on him.

Also noteworthy were the comments made recently by co-owner Mark Wilf. He said he would not pursue extension talks for general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and O’Connell’s contracts until after the season. How could the franchise fully make that assessment without seeing McCarthy? The Vikings currently have just three draft picks for next season (one first-rounder and two fifth-rounders).

A down year won’t lead to the type of fill-in needed to add depth to the roster. — Lewis

A far-right Israeli minister led hundreds of Jewish Israelis to Jerusalem’s most contested holy site, many defying the Israeli government’s longstanding ban on Jewish prayer there.

National Defense Minister Itamar Ben-Khir’s visit to the al-Aqsa mosque compound, known by Jews as the Temple Mount, has been condemned as provocation by Palestinian leaders, the United States, France, the UN and several Arab countries.

“Our policy is to implement Jewish prayer,” Mr Ben-Gvir said in a video.

But the Israeli prime minister’s office insisted there would be no change to the current deal, which allows only Muslim worship there.

The site is a very sacred place for Jews as it is the site of two biblical temples. It is the third holiest site for Muslims, who believe it is where the Prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven.

Located in occupied East Jerusalem, it was captured by Israel from Jordan in the 1967 Middle East War. Under the terms, Jordan was allowed to continue its historic role as the site’s custodian, while Israel assumed security and access control.

Palestinians accuse Israel of taking steps to undermine the arrangements and complain that in recent years Jewish visitors have often been seen praying unhindered by Israeli police.

Videos shared on social media on Tuesday showed Jewish Israelis singing the Israeli national anthem, some holding Israeli flags, while others bowed themselves in prayer at the edge of the holy site.

Itamar Ben Gvir, who visited the compound with Israeli police protection, said there had been “great progress” in Israel’s “governance and sovereignty”. “Our policy is to implement Jewish prayer,” he continued.

He also declared that Israel must “win the war” in the Gaza Strip and not engage in talks on a cease-fire and hostage-release deal to “bring Hamas to its knees.”

Later, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said the incident was “out of proportion”.

“Israel’s policy on the Temple Mount has not changed; This is how it has been, this is how it will be,” it emphasized.

Responding to the statement, Mr Ben-Ghir said his own policy was to “enforce freedom of worship for Jews everywhere”.

“There is no law on the Temple Mount or anywhere else in Israel that allows racist discrimination against Jews,” he added.

However, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry expressed grave concern over what it termed “a dangerous escalation resulting from attacks by extremist settlers on the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.”

“The ministry will continue its political efforts to address these provocations at various levels, warning of their dire consequences in the theater of conflict and the region as a whole,” a statement said.

The Waqf, the Jordanian Islamic foundation that manages the site, said more than 2,000 Israelis had entered the compound and appealed to Muslims around the world to help maintain the status quo.

Jordan’s foreign ministry said the incident reflected “the insistence of the Israeli government and its extremist members to violate international law and Israel’s obligations as an occupying power.”

Egypt and Saudi Arabia also said the incident violated international law, with the former saying Ben-Khir was trying to thwart efforts to broker a Gaza ceasefire deal.

US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said in a statement that Mr Ben-Givir’s visit “shows a flagrant disregard for the historic position regarding the holy sites in Jerusalem.

“These provocative actions heighten tensions at a critical moment when ongoing diplomatic efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement, release all hostages and create conditions for broader regional stability must be focused on,” the US top diplomat added.

The French Foreign Ministry condemned Mr Ben-Ghir’s visit, saying “this new provocation is unacceptable”.

United Nations spokesman Farhan Haq called the incident an “unhelpful and unnecessary provocation” and said “we are against any attempt to change the status quo inside the holy sites.”

What’s going on with Ukraine’s incursion into Russia, and how far has it gone?

Ukraine launched a surprise incursion with armor and infantry into Russia’s Kursk and Belgorod regions on August 6, involving thousands of troops from 14 brigades. While initial details of the offensive were murky, both Kyiv and Moscow have now acknowledged the operation inside Russian border areas, while independent analysts have verified claims about the extent of the advance by geolocating images released by Ukrainian troops.

This footage shows Ukrainian soldiers raising the Ukrainian flag on the quay and removing the Russian flag from a building in Tarino:

Ukraine’s top military commander, General Oleksandr Chirsky, said on Monday that Ukraine now controls about 1,000 square km (386 square miles) of the region, in his first recent public comments on the move.

The claim was largely confirmed by the Russian side. Alexey Smirnov, acting governor of the Kursk region, told Russian President Vladimir Putin via video conference on Monday that Ukrainian forces had taken control of 28 Russian settlements, including towns and villages, up to 18 miles (30 km) inside Russia.

Footage from outside the village of Glushkovo in Kursk showed damage to a bridge crossing the Sem River:

Video of Kursk Belovsky district with damage to cars and roads:

Although Russian military bloggers said the situation had stabilized on Sunday, fresh incursions were reported in West Kursk, northwest of the Ukrainian city of Sumy.

Geolocated footage from the Institute for the Study of War shows that Ukrainian forces have recently been conducting operations in Chudja and northern Zalozhenka. Some Russian bloggers claimed that Ukraine captured Chudja.

Footage posted on social media showed Ukrainian forces ambushed by rival columns around Chudja, including those in the village of Giri.

ISW said its assessment was that Ukrainian forces did not control all areas “within the maximum extent” of the alleged advances.

Smirnov said 121,000 people were evacuated from their homes in the Kursk region, while 11,000 were evacuated from the Belgorod region.

What kind of opposition did Ukraine face?

Although Ukraine had previously carried out several small intrusions and sabotage attacks into Russian border areas, the scale of the intrusion caught Moscow off guard and initially struggled to respond to the attack.

Since the weekend, Moscow has announced an anti-terror operation in Kursk and two other border regions. The Russian Defense Ministry said on Sunday that its forces were fighting Ukrainian troops “in the residential areas of Tolbino, Zhuravly and Obshi Kolodes”.

Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said a heavy-handed response by Russia’s armed forces “will not take long”.

The Russian Defense Ministry said its forces also thwarted an attempt by Ukrainian mobile groups to penetrate deep into Russian territory near Gauchuk.

Russia’s ally Belarus has been increasing the number of its own forces on its border, saying Ukraine had entered its airspace with drones.

Pasi Paroinen, an analyst at the Finland-based Blackbird Group open source intelligence that monitors the war, said the hardest phase of Ukraine’s incursion would now begin as Russian reserves entered the field.

Why is Ukraine doing it?

Although the Ukrainian operation is under tight secrecy and its goals are unclear, the advance brings Kyiv’s forces closer to key supply lines inside Russia that support Russia’s ongoing offensive in eastern Ukraine.

Chudza in Kursk is the site of Russia’s only pumping station for natural gas to reach Europe via Ukraine.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday that the incursion was designed to “put pressure on aggressor Russia” and “push the war into the territory of the aggressors”. Zelensky said the thousands of strikes carried out on Ukraine’s territory from Russia’s Kursk region deserve a fair response.

Speaking at a meeting with top security and defense officials on Monday, Putin said the attack appeared to reflect Kiev’s attempt to reach a better negotiating position in possible future talks to end the war.

Putin said Ukraine may have hoped the attack would cause public unrest in Russia, but failed to do so. He said the number of volunteers to join the Russian army had increased because of the attack.

“It is obvious that the enemies will try to destabilize the situation in the border zone to destabilize the domestic political situation in our country,” Putin said. Russia’s main task, he said, is to “drive out enemies from our territories and, together with the border service, ensure reliable security of the state border.”

USA Gymnastics officials say they will not reconsider their decision to return gymnast Jordan Chiles’ bronze medal at the Paris Olympics.

Last week, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) overturned an appeal by Chiles’ trainer on the floor that was initially upheld and moved him from fifth to third in the floor exercise in Paris. Cass’s decision came after the Romanian Olympic Committee said the appeal was more than four seconds past the one-minute time limit for scoring hearings. As a result, the International Gymnastics Federation (pictured) said Romania’s Ana Barbosu was promoted to third and Chiles dropped to fifth. The IOC said Chiles must return his medal.

On Sunday, USA Gymnastics said the agency submitted video evidence to Goss that showed Team USA coach Cecil Landy’s first appeal 13 seconds before the deadline. That appeal has now been dismissed.

USA Gymnastics said Chiles will continue to try to retain the medal.

“USA Gymnastics Announced [by Cas] “On Monday, their rules do not allow the referees to reconsider their decision even if conclusive new evidence is presented,” USA Gymnastics said in a statement. “We are deeply disappointed by the announcement and will pursue every possible avenue and appeals process, including the Swiss Federal Tribunal, to ensure proper scoring, placement and medal award for Jordan.”

Disputes over such minute details set up months or even years of legal battles over gymnastics scores.

The IOC said it would contact the USOPC regarding the return of Chile’s bronze and work with the Romanian Olympic Committee to discuss a rededication ceremony honoring Barbosu. Brazil’s Rebecca Andrade won gold and USA’s Simone Biles won silver. The Romanian team asked to share the bronze medals, allowing Chiles to keep her bronze.

Any appeal can go to the Swiss Tribunal, Switzerland’s highest court, or the European Court of Human Rights.

Late Monday, rapper Flavor Flav — who has been a major celebrity supporter of the 2024 Olympians — posted on X that the U.S. had created a Pedestal bronze medalist as a possible replacement for Chile as it battles “Powers That Peace.”

“Thank you. Means the world,” Chiles’ mother, Gina, wrote on X. “He’s no longer social as you can imagine. I will share with her.

CAS canceled a site A plea from Chiles’ coach That moved her up to third, and the appeal said she came in over the one-minute time limit to score by 4 seconds.

USA Gymnastics denied the timeout, with the agency submitting video evidence to CAS on Sunday that Team USA coach Cecile Landy first appealed 13 seconds before the timeout.

Disputes over such minute details set up months or even years of legal battles over gymnastics scores.

Gymnastics is full of twists and turns, but the unfolding saga of which gymnast will officially win the bronze medal at the 2024 Olympic women’s artistic exercise finals is more complicated than anyone expected.

US gymnast Jordan Chiles was robbed of her first individual Olympic medal after the Romanian gymnastics team challenged her final score. Although Team USA’s appeal of that ruling was rejected Monday evening, the battle for bronze is far from over.

Here’s what you need to know.

The competition was fierce – and it was always close

The gymnastics women’s floor exercise final was set to be a nail-biting contest before Chiles stepped onto the mat for the final on August 5. Romania’s Ana Parbosu and her teammate Sabrina Manega-Voinia, were built with 13,700 marks.

Chiles’ chance of winning his first individual medal and gracing the Olympic podium comes to just under a tenth of a point.

The 23-year-old gymnast confidently executed her floor routine to a Beyonce medley, and all three athletes anxiously waited for the judges to announce her score.

Chile was initially awarded a score of 13.666, placing her in fifth place. But as the stadium erupted in cheers after Brazil’s Rebecca Andrade won the gold medal, USA gymnastics coach Cecile Landy questioned Chiles’ difficulty.

Minutes later, Silistan was the first to notice the judges’ decision — jumping up and down like a dazed Landy on the leaderboard. The judges adjusted her score by 0.1 of a point, and she scored 13.766 to win the bronze.

The win was historic – the first time a black woman had won all three positions on the Olympic podium. In a remarkable display of sportsmanship, Chiles suggested that she and Biles playfully bow to Andrade. The move was captured in an iconic photo that instantly made sports history.

But the celebration will be short-lived.

International Gymnastics Federation Regulations Allow a coach to challenge difficulty scores “if they were made verbally immediately after the score was published.”

The guidelines call for a coach to verbally question the last gymnast in a rotation one minute after being shown the score.

As Chiles was the final gymnast, her coaches were racing against the clock.

“The person appointed to receive the oral hearing shall record the time of receiving it in writing or electronically, and this shall commence the procedure”.

The Romanian Gymnastics Federation and gymnasts Bǎrbosu and Maneca-Voinea filed an official challenge with the Court of Arbitration for Sport to review the circumstances surrounding Chile’s decision to correct the score.

They argued that USA Gymnastics’ hearing was filed 4 seconds after the one-minute time limit and that Chiles’ initial score of 13.666 should be upheld. Three athletes, gymnasts arguedA medal shall be awarded to each placed third.

The following week, the appeals process took place behind the scenes. Later, on Saturday, the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld Romania’s challenge.

Sports Management Committee declared The interrogatory submitted on behalf of Chiles was “raised after the expiration of the one-minute time limit … and was determined to be of no consequence.”

“The Fédération Internationale de Gymnastics shall determine the ranking of the women’s floor exercise final and award the medal(s) in accordance with the above decision,” the Court of Arbitration for Sport said in a statement.

It was later announced that Romania’s Peerbosu would be awarded the bronze.

USA Gymnastics and the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee said, “We are devastated.” Joint Statement Following the verdict. “The inquiry into the difficulty rating of Jordan Chiles’ floor exercise routine was filed in good faith, and we believed it was in accordance with FIG rules to ensure accurate scoring.”

It also noted that Chiles has been subjected to “completely baseless and highly offensive attacks on social media”.

Following the CAS decision, Chiles posted four broken heart emojis on his Instagram story and announced his retirement from social media. “I am taking this time and removing myself from social media for my mental health,” she wrote.

Hours later, USA Gymnastics announced that it had formally submitted a letter and additional evidence to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to appeal the ruling.

The team said In a statement It submitted time-stamped video evidence showing that USA Gymnastics coach Landy submitted his inquiry, “47 seconds after the score was posted, and the second statement 55 seconds after the score was first posted.”

The group said it did not have footage prior to the tribunal’s decision, and later argued there were “significant errors” in the initial scoring and CAS appeals processes.

“Given these circumstances, we are committed to continuing the appeal to help Jordan Chiles get the recognition he deserves. We remain committed to supporting him as Olympic champion and will continue to work diligently to resolve this matter expeditiously and fairly,” the team said in a statement.

USA Gymnastics has rejected its appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to allow Chiles to retain her floor exercise bronze medal.

“USA Gymnastics was informed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on Monday that their rules do not allow them to reconsider a referee’s decision even if conclusive new evidence is presented,” the organization said in a statement. Report On Monday evening, it will continue the case.

“We are deeply disappointed by the announcement and will pursue every possible avenue and appeals process, including the Swiss Federal Tribunal, to ensure proper scoring, placement and medal award for Jordan.”

CNN has reached out to CAS and the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee for comment.

It’s unclear how long the appeal will take to work its way through the jury — and it’s unclear whether Chiles has already returned the medal.

While score revisions are not uncommon, Chiles’ case is unusual. In the past, athletes were stripped of their medals if the International Olympic Committee found evidence of illegal doping.

Superstar Usain Bolt was forced to return the 4x100m relay gold medal he won at the 2008 Beijing Olympics after his teammate Nesta Carter was found to have taken a banned drug.
