Trump Urges Speedy Passage of Controversial 'One Big Bill' | JQJO

The Supreme Court has ruled that the Trump administration cannot deny gender‑affirming care to transgender inmates while the policy is being implemented. The decision prevents the administration from withholding such medical treatment from incarcerated individuals who identify as transgender. The ruling applies to the policy currently under review by the Court.

A 19‑year‑old college student from London, Ontario, flew to Los Angeles for a seven‑day “looksmaxxing” bootcamp run by internet influencer Braden Peters, known online as Clavicular. The student, William Munro, paid $2,000 for a plane ticket and an additional $5,000 for camp enrollment, all from money earned on odd jobs and online gambling. Munro said he attended to learn how to improve his appearance, a trend that critics say can lead to dangerous practices such as plastic surgery and “bonesmashing.” After the camp, he said he is now seeking a $40,000 facial surgery. The bootcamp was hosted by Peters, who has faced criticism for misogynistic language and ties to Andrew Tate, and was charged with rape in September, charges that were later dropped.

A new attack ad from Republican Vivek Ramaswamy in the Ohio governor’s race featured Amy Acton’s estranged mother, Donna Arthur, calling the candidate a liar. Acton’s campaign and her brother Philip Stearns called the ad a “despicable low.” Arthur said, “It’s not easy for a mother to say this, but Amy was a serious problem. She is a liar; she lies about her past.” Stearns accused Ramaswamy of exploiting the sexual abuse Acton endured at age twelve, noting that their stepfather, Cledith Arthur, was arrested and charged. Ramaswamy later confirmed the ad was from his campaign and defended its content. The Ohio Republican Party has not yet responded. Acton, who served as the state’s public health commissioner, has previously spoken publicly about abuse by her stepfather.

Two critical PHP remote‑code‑execution flaws, CVE‑2026‑109618 and CVE‑2026‑109619, were disclosed on the Hacker News forum on October 20, a day before the PHP security team’s planned public disclosure and patch release at 2 pm GMT on October 21. The leaks, attributed to user ‘petecooper’, revealed the CVE identifiers and claimed the vulnerabilities would be disclosed on October 22. The PHP team confirmed the patches would be released on October 21 and assigned a CVSS score of 9.2, lower than the maximum 10.0 suggested by the leak. CERT‑EU and the UK NCSC issued emergency advisories urging users to prepare for remediation. PHP powers roughly 69.7 % of websites that use a server‑side language, including WordPress, Drupal, Joomla and Magento. The premature leak could enable attackers to exploit the flaws before patches are available.
