LOS ANGELES — When Husan Longstreet arrived at USC a year ago, the expectation was the five-star freshman would be the Trojans' future at quarterback. But after just one season at USC, Longstreet is leaving. USC has just two quarterbacks currently on the roster, one being a true freshman in Jonas Williams. "He loves USC, the team and players, but no guarantees in life and Husan is a competitor," Kevin Longstreet told On3's Greg Biggins. With Longstreet gone, expect USC to pursue a veteran passer in the transfer portal to fill the No.

The plaintiffs — California Attorney General Rob Bonta, New York Attorney General Letitia James, Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison — asked the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York to order the Department of Health and Human Services to release funds they say were lawfully appropriated by Congress. California provided further specifics on its child care spending: the state’s total child care budget is about $7.3 billion, of which $2.2 billion comes from federal sources. The state says HHS’s action would remove roughly $1.4 billion in child care funding that families and providers currently depend on. The states counter that the letters provide no factual or legal basis and amount to selective targeting of Democratic-led states. Programs supported by the Social Services Block Grant also fund disability services and language and accessibility supports that disproportionately affect marginalized communities.

Federal immigration officers fired on a vehicle in East Portland this afternoon, wounding a man and a woman who subsequently drove several miles to seek help, officials said. Portland police said local officers were not involved in the shooting but were first to arrive on the initial report of gunfire and later found the wounded people after a call for assistance. Chief Day urged calm amid heightened tensions following an ICE-related fatal shooting in Minneapolis the previous day. Federal agents and FBI personnel were visible at the site, and Portland police used a public-address system to order crowds outside a federal facility to disperse; several people were taken into custody during protests near the ICE and CBP building. The overlapping federal and state investigations are likely to shape debate over enforcement authority and local control in the coming days.

The track is also up for Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, demonstrating commercial heft that underpins its critical recognition. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and holding the top spot on the Billboard Global 200 for 14 weeks. This cycle also produced the first year in which two K-pop-related recordings competed in the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance category. A K-pop win would punctuate years of global dominance with institutional recognition, affecting perceptions of artistic legitimacy, label investment strategies and the industry’s gatekeeping norms.

The vote cleared the 51-vote threshold needed to advance the measure and set a likely final Senate vote for the coming days. Every Senate Democrat supported advancing the resolution, and five Republicans crossed party lines: Sens. If enacted, the measure would require the president to seek specific authorization from Congress before ordering further U.S. military operations in Venezuela. Sponsors framed the resolution as a response to recent unilateral action and as an attempt to prevent additional escalation without legislative backing. Lawmakers received briefings from senior administration officials on U.S. policy toward Venezuela in the days leading up to the Senate debate.

Hear from Venezuelans after Maduro's captureAlmost a week after the US captured Nicolás Maduro, the response from citizens in Venezuela has remained largely quiet. Journalist Mary Triny Mena went out in the country’s capital, Caracas, to try to get a better sense of how Venezuelans are feeling right now.

ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods listens as President Donald Trump speaks during a meeting with oil company executives in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC on January 9. “If we look at the legal and commercial constructs and frameworks in place today, in Venezuela today, it’s uninvestible, and so significant changes have to be made to those commercial frameworks, the legal system,” Woods said. Woods said he was confident the Trump administration could make those necessary changes. But to even understand what kind of return on investment Exxon would get from Venezuela, Woods said a number of questions need to be answered first. What are the commercial arrangements, the legal frameworks?” Woods asked.

President Donald Trump said on Thursday the US is ready to act in support of protests in Iran and that he has put officials in Tehran on notice. Nobody’s ever seen anything like what’s happening right now, but I have put Iran on notice that if they start shooting at them — these people are totally unarmed people, and they love their country,” Trump told Hannity on Fox. Look at their country. But I’ve warned them that if they do anything bad to these people, we’re going to hit them very hard,” Trump said. “I’ve said it very loud and very clear, that’s what we’re going to do.”

The oil industry has expressed serious skepticism about ponying up tens of billions of dollars over a decade to restore Venezuela’s oil infrastructure. But oil companies would be willing to reconsider under the right conditions: There’s serious money to be made from the country’s massive oil reserves. Guarantees from the Trump administration may last only as long as Trump is in power — and can maintain control over Venezuela’s government. That’s unlikely to comfort the oil industry that new Venezuelan and US governments don’t change the rules on them years down the line. Repeal of sanctions and oil lawsIn private prep sessions ahead of Friday, oil executives worried Trump will demand on-the-spot commitments.

Is there anything that could stop if you wanted to?” “Yeah, there’s one thing: my own morality, my own mind. I don’t need international law. I’m not looking to hurt people.” “Do you feel your administration needs to abide by international law on the global stage?” “Yeah, I do. I do, but it depends what your definition of international law is.” “You mean in Greenland? Ownership is very important, yeah.” “Why is ownership important here?” Because it’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success.

Golding captured this descent in “Lord of the Flies,” where casual cruelty gradually hardens into loss of restraint and hunger for control. Piggy memes spread widely — not only among Trump supporters, but among critics and political leaders who claim to reject his politics. It is not a passing insult but an alarm bell, reverberating against barriers I have spent my career trying to overcome.
