Spider-Man 4 ought to begin taking pictures as early as subsequent summer season, star Tom Holland revealed throughout an look on NBC’s The Tonight Present Starring Jimmy Fallon final evening.
Confirming the challenge, Holland mentioned, “Subsequent summer season, we begin taking pictures. Every part’s good to go. We’re almost there.” Holland added that the challenge is “tremendous thrilling.”
Fallon had a little bit of enjoyable reminding Holland that the actor hasn’t all the time been fully truthful relating to sharing Spider-Man information. Throughout a Covid-era zoom look on Tonight, Holland performed dumb about rumors that earlier Spider-Males Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield would seem in cameos within the 2021 No Manner Dwelling franchise installment.
“I’d identical to so as to add, although, that I did say, ‘In the meanwhile,’” Holland mentioned by the use of weaseling. “So I didn’t technically lie. Albeit I had simply come from set with Toby and Andrew.”

Schiller: If elected, it’s extremely possible that Trump will govern in a extra authoritarian vogue than any president in trendy occasions, and he’ll attempt to disregard the rule of regulation, particularly provided that the present Supreme Courtroom has given presidents immunity for actions taken whereas president. We should see how People react to the adjustments that may are available in each nook of our democracy.
Tobin-Tyler: This election couldn’t be extra necessary for the way forward for girls’s rights. The variations within the visions for the way forward for the nation, and interpretation of the previous, of the 2 campaigns are stark. The ideology represented by the Trump-Vance marketing campaign envisions a return to a time when girls’s roles have been extra circumscribed they usually have been anticipated to sacrifice their freedoms and financial independence to satisfy their position as moms. Elements of the non secular proper are attacking not solely entry to abortion, but additionally entry to contraception as a approach to reign in what some see as an excessive amount of sexual freedom for ladies. This imaginative and prescient has been strengthened by the conservative majority of the Supreme Courtroom, which insists that the Structure must be interpreted by way of the lens of “historical past and custom” and the unique public which means on the time of the nation’s founding, a time when girls primarily had no rights. In latest circumstances, it has additionally signaled its willingness to privilege non secular rights over the rights of girls and gender minorities.
Reflective of this “take the nation again” imaginative and prescient is an unwillingness to acknowledge the very actual challenges confronted by girls in 2024: No federally mandated paid household depart, unaffordable and sometimes low-quality childcare, a cussed pay hole, and a rising maternal well being disaster, exacerbated by inaccessible reproductive well being care for a lot of girls, particularly low-income girls and girls of coloration.
The Harris marketing campaign represents a very totally different imaginative and prescient of girls’s roles and rights. If she wins, as the primary girl president she is going to exemplify what it means for ladies to have equal entry to energy. Her document as vp and her alternative of Tim Walz, who as governor of Minnesota efficiently handed paid depart and childcare laws, additionally demonstrates her imaginative and prescient of what insurance policies she believes can assist to offer an excellent enjoying subject for ladies.
On how the economic system will have an effect on voters’ choices
Blyth: If we’re speaking in regards to the broad mass of voters whose votes will completely not decide the election — say Democratic voters in Massachusetts or Republican voters in Montana — then the price of dwelling, particularly the price of housing, is a key problem. Sadly, there may be little or no both candidate can do about these elements within the quick to medium run (construct many extra homes, break up concentrated markets) and certainly one of them appears to have little curiosity in both answer, focusing as a substitute on China and immigration as key themes. When it comes to the lower than 1% of the inhabitants that can resolve the election? That’s anybody’s guess. Housing or immigration? Take your choose. And if the Center East turmoil worsens and that impacts gasoline costs, that provides extra uncertainty into the combination.
On the position of race
Tate: Trump has made race a problem on this marketing campaign. He accused Harris of solely just lately claiming to be Black. He has falsely accused Haitian immigrants of consuming household pets. He mentioned he would change Fort Liberty’s title again to its former Accomplice title, Fort Bragg. He has pledged to finish DEI packages within the navy and in federal places of work. He has additionally attacked Harris’ gender, calling her dumb. Harris has reacted by avoiding any dialogue of her race and gender. She usually has not commented on the historic nature of this election, and the truth that she might develop into the nation’s first Black South Asian feminine president. When requested straight about Trump’s remark about her racial id, she refused to reply, saying “subsequent query.”
By injecting race into the marketing campaign, Trump is interesting to his base of racially conservative white voters. Political scientists have discovered that whites who consider that Blacks don’t strive exhausting sufficient and need particular favors (about 40% of the white inhabitants) tremendously most well-liked Trump over Clinton in 2016, and that whites who consider the identical issues about Latinos (i.e., they don’t work exhausting) additionally most well-liked Trump. Trump has campaigned exhausting on stressing that Latino immigrants deliver crime and are violent. Some Blacks and Latinos additionally consider that members of their group don’t work exhausting. These voters will strongly again Trump. If Trump wins, it is going to be due to his exploitation of America’s racial divisions.
Zarate: I anticipate that race will play a big position in voter conduct and have an effect on the end result of this election. Analysis has discovered that white racial id and white racial animus are highly effective predictors of assist for Trump. A lot of the Trump coalition relies on stoking white racial animus, and this hasn’t modified throughout his third marketing campaign for president. If something, with a girl of coloration as his opponent, now this technique turns into even stronger.
Though Harris’ standing as a girl of coloration dangers hurting her electoral possibilities amongst racial conservatives, there may be purpose to consider it should assist her considerably amongst Democrats. Previous to Harris turning into the Democratic nominee, there was a scarcity of enthusiasm surrounding the election. That is now not the case as evidenced by the Harris crew’s fundraising numbers. Though there are possible a number of elements contributing to this, we have now each purpose to consider that Harris being a Black girl is a part of it. This can be necessary come time to rely the votes. The 2020 election underscored the significance of African American voters to Democrats, particularly when eager about the stunning presidential and senatorial victories in historically Republican Georgia.
On Black voter polling
Tate: Harris has gained again many of the Black vote that had eroded beneath Biden’s candidacy. Nonetheless, there are reportedly extra Blacks supporting Trump in 2024 than in 2020. I’m not positive Trump in the long run will get a bump in Black assist. I believe Black dissatisfaction is there with each Harris and Trump. Though Harris changed Biden, the selection in 2024 appears equivalent to the one in 2020 to dissatisfied Black voters. I believe the turnout amongst Blacks could be low. The Democratic Occasion has to work more durable on securing the assist of younger Black males.
The Los Angeles Lakers and Minnesota Timberwolves face off on Tuesday in a gap night time matchup between acquainted foes. A beef brewed between the organizations through the summer time, although not between anybody who will play in opposition to one another on the courtroom.
Lakers nice Earvin “Magic” Johnson and the Wolves’ Anthony Edwards made their respective debuts within the NBA over 40 years aside. Johnson and Edwards have some similarities — they had been drafted first total, primarily performed the guard place and starred for a Western Convention workforce.

Ant stirs the pot

The feedback caught the eye of Detroit Pistons legend Isiah Thomas and Timberwolves legend Kevin Garnett, however they struck a nerve particularly with Johnson.
Magic does not maintain again
It took lower than per week for the Corridor of Famer to deal with Edwards, and he did not maintain again.
Johnson flexed his championship résumé when referring to the Timberwolves guard — Johnson gained a championship at the highschool, school and the NBA ranges. Although Johnson stated he would not reply, his assertion provided a response in itself.
Magic will get the final phrase
A month after his preliminary response, Johnson appeared on “Jimmy Kimmel Reside!” and Edwards’ feedback had been mentioned once more. The previous Lakers guard had a lengthy-but-simple response this time.
Johnson stated Edwards “ought to’ve requested someone, perhaps his father or his grandfather” about a number of the gamers in that period. Johnson started itemizing names and described them as “a number of the most dominant gamers which have ever performed.”
Johnson then took one other jab on the lack of profitable on Edwards’ résumé.
“You would possibly wish to talk-trash once you gained one thing,” he stated. “If this got here from a number of the guys who simply gained on the [Boston] Celtics workforce, OK, you would possibly wish to have a look at it. However you have not gained something.”
He additionally provided recommendation to the younger star. He advised him to focus on groups just like the Dallas Mavericks, who eradicated the Timberwolves within the postseason, moderately than what occurred “in a time you were not born.”
As voters flocked to the polls on the primary day of early voting, town’s Ethics Evaluate Fee determined it might postpone contemplating complaints about Mayor Kirk Watson and challenger Doug Greco accepting greater than the allowed quantity from non-Austin residents. Metropolis code limits the quantities candidates can obtain from non-city residents on the idea that outdoors cash mustn’t affect native choices.
Former Commissioner Betsy Greenberg had filed complaints towards each of them, alleging that every had accepted out-of-city contributions in extra of $46,000.
Nonetheless, Jim Cousar, Watson’s lawyer, advised town that he could be overseas on Oct. 23, the date of the following fee assembly, and requested a postponement. Because the Bulldog reported, the Oct. 23 agenda now reveals the fee will probably be discussing the scheduling of the complaints towards Watson and Greco. For now, the complaints are anticipated to be heard on Nov. 13, eight days after the overall election. Cousar couldn’t be reached for remark Monday.
After the choice to postpone the listening to on grievance towards Watson, Greenberg requested that the listening to on the grievance towards Greco even be postponed. Greco filed go well with towards town to attempt to overturn the regulation of out of doors contributions. Nonetheless, a federal choose dismissed the case, saying it might be applicable for Greco to file once more after the ethics fee choice.
Commissioners may even be discussing the scheduling of complaints towards District 10 candidate Ashika Ganguly and District 6 candidate Krista Laine. Ganguly and Laine each missed the submitting deadline for stories on their private monetary holdings that have been as a result of metropolis in mid-September. Their opponents, Council Member Mackenzie Kelly in District 6 and Marc Duchen in District 10, filed ethics complaints towards them. So, these complaints is not going to be heard earlier than the election both.
In an announcement launched Tuesday, Greco stated “It is vitally irritating to be taught two days earlier than a listening to that it’s now delayed due to a request from the complainant and the Mayor, particularly since my request for the same delay final month was denied. I not too long ago introduced a federal case over this metropolis rule that unfairly benefits incumbents, rich candidates, and political insiders over grassroots candidates, and the choose dominated the Ethics Fee is the suitable venue to first make this case. And now two political insiders, the Mayor and Betsy Greenberg, who’s a supporter and donor of one in all my opponents, efficiently pushed to have these hearings delayed.”
In an electronic mail to the Monitor Greenberg stated, Greenberg advised the Monitor, “(E)fforts must be made to listen to circumstances regarding marketing campaign violations earlier than elections. The preliminary listening to for the Greco and Watson circumstances may have been held on the August twenty eighth assembly and as a substitute the fee obtained a briefing. Equally, the preliminary hearings on the Ganguly and Laine complaints ought to have been scheduled for this week.”
Duchen additionally complained on Monday a few political motion committee, known as Vibrant Austin PAC, which ran an advert on the Austin American-Statesman web site on Oct. 20, declaring that the Travis County Democratic Celebration, amongst others, had endorsed Ganguly. That isn’t the case. The get together by no means endorses one Democrat over one other. James Murphy, Travis County Democratic Celebration govt director, is quoted in a information launch saying that the get together “has not made any endorsements on this race” and that “any statements on the contrary are inaccurate.”
The Austin Monitor contacted Skyler Korgel, the treasurer for the Vibrant Austin PAC. He stated the reference to the native Democratic Celebration endorsement was “a mistake. It wasn’t intentional.” He stated that he personally had nothing to do with the advert, however declined to call the particular person or individuals who did. The PAC submitting reveals the names of two different choice makers with the PAC, Julio Salinas and Luis Osta Lugo. Korgel stated the improper endorsement assertion had appeared solely in that one advert and that the error wouldn’t be repeated.
The Austin Monitor’s work is made attainable by donations from the group. Although our reporting covers donors infrequently, we’re cautious to maintain enterprise and editorial efforts separate whereas sustaining transparency. A whole checklist of donors is accessible right here, and our code of ethics is defined right here. This story has been up to date to incorporate an announcement from Greco.
You are a group chief
And we’re honored you look to us for severe, in-depth information. You understand a powerful group wants native and devoted watchdog reporting. We’re right here for you and that gained’t change. Now will you’re taking the highly effective subsequent step and help our nonprofit information group?
Elle a « transformé la ville », quitte à bousculer de vieilles habitudes. Elle persiste et signe : la mairesse de Montréal, Valérie Plante, qui a décidé de ne pas solliciter un troisième mandat, affirme avoir accompli la volonté de « la grande majorité des Montréalais ». Elle estime que ses successeurs devront continuer dans la même voie, en faisant davantage de place aux piétons, aux vélos et aux autobus, pour améliorer la qualité de vie des Montréalais.
La classe politique a salué les préoccupations de Valérie Plante pour les questions sociales comme le logement, l’itinérance, l’adaptation aux changements climatiques et les transports collectifs — même si ses batailles, notamment avec le gouvernement Legault, sont loin d’avoir donné les résultats escomptés.
La première mairesse de l’histoire de la métropole, qui a succédé à Denis Coderre en 2017 — et l’a vaincu par une plus grande majorité encore en 2021 —, a affirmé mercredi qu’elle n’avait « pas le même niveau d’énergie » qu’au cours des dernières années pour se présenter aux prochaines élections, prévues en novembre 2025.
« Mais je vais bien, très bien », a ajouté l’élue de 50 ans en précisant qu’elle terminerait son mandat. La course à la route de son parti, Projet Montréal, sera lancée dans les prochains mois.
Dans une allocution de 11 minutes, Valérie Plante a rappelé que son rôle était de « servir d’abord et avant tout les Montréalais. Je parle de ceux qui habitent la ville, je parle de ceux qui vivent la ville ». « C’est en pensant aux Montréalais que j’ai eu le braveness de prendre des décisions difficiles et nécessaires pour rendre la ville plus verte, plus sécuritaire et plus résiliente face aux réalités qui nous frappent et celles qui nous attendent », a-t-elle ajouté.
Vélos et cônes orange
La mairesse et son équipe ont transformé la mobilité dans la métropole, notamment en aménageant le Réseau specific vélo sur plusieurs grandes artères, comme la rue Saint-Denis. Cette initiative a été saluée comme un geste fort pour améliorer la mobilité et relancer les commerces de proximité. Ses détracteurs ont toutefois déploré la perte de locations de stationnement et les longs travaux de voirie nécessaires à la building de ces pistes cyclables.
Sa promesse phare d’améliorer la mobilité dans la métropole s’est aussi heurtée à la vétusté des infrastructures souterraines : la nécessité de remplacer les égouts et les aqueducs souffrant d’un manque d’entretien depuis des décennies a donné lieu à une multiplication des chantiers — et des fermetures de rues à coups de cônes orange, devenus un symbole des problèmes de Montréal.
Valérie Plante a rappelé que ses idées émanaient des militants de Projet Montréal et des citoyens. Elle n’a rien imposé. « C’est pour eux et grâce à eux que je suis devenue mairesse. Ce sont eux qui ont porté Projet Montréal au pouvoir. Notre mouvement n’est pas un hasard. Nos idées, nos projets sont le reflet des idées et de la volonté de la grande majorité des Montréalais, qui ont même fait des petits ailleurs au Québec », a-t-elle fait valoir.
Elle estime que ses successeurs devront continuer dans le même sens parce que c’est la volonté des Montréalais. Les élus doivent bonifier l’offre de transport actif et collectif pour faire diminuer le nombre de voitures, qui a explosé dans la région de Montréal dans les 20 dernières années. La mairesse dit aussi parler au nom des sans-voix en cette époque de crise du logement et de l’itinérance.
« C’est ce qui me motive à renforcer ce mouvement-là, qui ne reviendra pas en arrière, quoi qu’il arrive. […] Tant qu’il y aura des gens qui vont dormir dans la rue et tant que ça va prendre deux heures à beaucoup de gens pognés dans le trafic pour se rendre au travail sur l’île, notre travail ne sera pas fini », a-t-elle déclaré.
De nombreux hommages
Des élus de tous les ordres de gouvernement ont salué la détermination de Valérie Plante à changer le visage de Montréal. « Je pense qu’elle a transformé la ville », a souligné Suzanne Roy, ministre de la Famille du Québec. L’intérêt de la mairesse de Montréal pour les dossiers sociaux et les déplacements à vélo n’est pas passé inaperçu, notice l’élue du gouvernement Legault.
Elle a côtoyé Valérie Plante en tant que ministre, mairesse de Sainte-Julie et présidente de l’Union des municipalités du Québec. Suzanne Roy a vu à l’oeuvre « une femme de conviction qui croyait à sa ville et qui était succesful de défendre ses dossiers ».
Le maire de Québec, Bruno Marchand, a souligné la portée nationale du travail de Valérie Plante dans les dossiers municipaux. Elle a inspiré la nouvelle génération de maires et de mairesses progressistes qui ont été élus au cours des dernières années. Il s’est dit impressionné par le braveness de son homologue montréalaise, qui s’est battue pour des changements qui sont loin de faire l’unanimité : pistes cyclables, verdissement, apaisement de la circulation, adaptation aux changements climatiques…
Le maire de Québec est « profondément persuadé que Montréal se porte mieux qu’avant ». Il suggest lui-même un programme semblable à celui de Projet Montréal en tentant, dit-il, d’éviter les erreurs de la métropole. Il insiste par exemple sur l’significance de décongestionner les rues — par des pistes cyclables et des transports collectifs — pour faciliter la vie des automobilistes.
« Il y a un lourd tribut à payer. Certains disent qu’on vieillit deux ou trois fois plus vite [que le reste de la population]. Pour le vivre moi-même, je n’aurais pas de raison de douter de ça. […] Mais la seule façon d’avoir un maire populaire, c’est d’avoir un maire qui vend de la crème glacée, qui dit à tout le monde qu’ils sont extraordinaires et qui n’amène aucun changement. Si c’est ça qu’on veut, nos villes, elles ne bougent pas », a déclaré Bruno Marchand aux journalistes.
La Chambre de commerce du Montréal métropolitain a aussi rendu hommage à Valérie Plante, notamment pour sa gestion « exemplaire » de la pandémie, Montréal ayant été l’épicentre de la contagion au pays.
« Il est encore trop tôt pour dresser le bilan de son passage à la mairie. La Ville devra […] rétablir un minimal de fluidité sur les artères […], faciliter le lancement de projets privés pour répondre à la crise du logement [et] rétablir un sentiment de sécurité au centre-ville. Pour réussir, nous aurons besoin du management de la mairesse Plante », a conclu le p.-d.g. de l’organisation, qui est d’ailleurs pressenti pour se porter candidat à la mairie.
