The International Olympic Committee is reviewing eligibility rules for women’s events and weighing tighter, science‑based criteria, but says no decision has been made amid reports of a potential ban to be considered ahead of the Milan‑Cortina 2026 Winter Games.
In a heated debate at Norfolk State University, Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears pressed Democratic Rep. Abigail Spanberger to condemn attorney general candidate Jay Jones over his violent text messages, while also criticizing her stance on transgender bathroom policies. Spanberger dodged direct answers on Jones' endorsement and transgender issues, leading to a tightening race. The exchange highlighted ongoing controversies in Virginia's 2025 election.
