At Combs Trial, ‘Jane,' an Ex-Girlfriend, to Testify About Sex Abuse
A second woman who prosecutors say was sex trafficked by Sean Combs is set to take the stand on Thursday at his federal trial in what is expected to be several days of testimony about drug-fueled sex marathons with male prostitutes known as 'freak-offs.' A judge has allowed the woman to testify anonymously, and she is being referred to in court by the pseudonym 'Jane.' She is the most significant witness since Casandra Ventura, Mr. Combs's on-and-off girlfriend of 11 years, whose allegations of physical and sexual abuse gave rise to the criminal case. Prosecutors have said that Jane's relationship with Mr. Combs mirrored the one he had with Ms. Ventura in many ways. Like Ms. Ventura, they have said, Jane was coerced into freak-offs through violence, financial control and threats related to videos of the sexual encounters, which they said Mr. Combs directed step by step. Unlike Ms. Ventura, who is a singer known as Cassie and a public celebrity, Jane's identity has not been revealed. The government has described Jane as a single mother who started spending time with Mr. Combs in 2020 and quickly fell in love with the music mogul, agreeing to participate in an initial freak-off to please him. 'Jane thought the first freak-off was a one-time, wild night,' Emily Johnson, one of the prosecutors, said at the start of the case. 'Jane was wrong.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Oregon girls open up on 'traumatic' trans athlete experiences that pushed them to fight back
Oregon high school senior Alexa Anderson is now a budding conservative heroine, but she comes from a family of Democrats. When the Tigard High School track and field star refused to stand on the same podium as a trans athlete at the state championship on Saturday, alongside fellow medalist Reese Eckard, Anderson learned right away the treatment an act like that prompted from the political side her family traditionally aligned with. "When me and Reese stepped down there was definitely some confusion, there was definitely some anger and just a lot of people who didn't understand why were were doing this, and it was scary. Everyone was looking at us," Anderson told Fox News Digital. "There was a lot of people on and off the field. I heard shouts of them telling us to get out of the way." The backlash did not end on the field. "There has also been a handful of people that just really don't understand that are reaching out and are calling me a bad person," she added. "When I received one of the first hate comments I kind of just brushed it off, I responded saying 'thank you for sharing your opinion, I respect your opinion, this is mine and this is what I stood for' but it didn't really bother me too much because I was prepared for it, I knew this was going to happen, and I have so many people behind me, supporting me and that number greatly outweighs the people who have been hateful toward me." Anderson was warned by friends, coaches and family about what would happen if she took the stand she took. However, she felt she had to do something as soon as she found out she would be competing against the trans athlete last week. The teen considered withdrawing from the competition altogether, but could not bring herself to waste all of her hard work to get to that point. So she and Eckard came up with the podium idea. Anderson had never even competed against a trans athlete herself in competition prior to that point, but she felt compelled to demonstrate her opposition for the sake of the other girls across the country, especially in her state, who have been impacted by trans inclusion. One of those girls is Glencoe High School junior Lily Hammond. As a sophomore in the winter of 2023-24, Hammond said she unknowingly competed against and shared a locker room with a biological male opponent on another team. She said she competed against the athlete multiple times, assuming the athlete was a biological female. "It wasn't until the last meet that I realized 'oh, that is a trans person,' and by that point it was too late," Hammond told Fox News Digital. "The shock that came was the mistrust and the lying, I felt very betrayed, I felt betrayed by the adults and the coaches on the other team that let it happen without my consent and my knowledge. My team didn't know, my coach didn't know… I felt very violated knowing that a man could have seen me changing." Hammond said she already had to deal with transgender students at her high school entering the girls' restrooms on a regular basis, but she called the experience with her swim team "traumatic." "At the time it was overwhelming and felt traumatic since I was kept in the dark," she said. Hammond is not the only Oregon girl "traumatized" by the issue either. Forest Grove High School senior Maddie Eischen and Newberg High School junior Sophia Carpenter were faced with the prospect of competing against a trans athlete in a state competition called the Chehalem Classic back on April 18. So both of them refused to compete. "I found out the day before, which led to me feeling the need to scratch myself from the meet. The whole day I had anxiety," Eischen told Fox News Digital. "My experience at the Chehalem track meet and scratching myself from the meet was traumatic, something I never imagined ever having to do." Carpenter said she found herself so overwhelmed with emotion from the experience, that she cried on the ride home after the meet. "It was emotionally traumatic trying to know what I should do and how I should respond to competing with [the trans athlete]," Carpenter said. The experience pushed Carpenter to make a visible point when she competed at the state championships this weekend. She showed up to her high jump competition sporting a T-shirt from the activist sportswear brand XX-XY Athletics. Now, beyond just speaking up against the state's current laws that enable males in their sports, Anderson, Hammond and Carpenter suggested the issue will play heavily into how they vote in future political elections. "Just this last election, looking at the different beliefs between the two candidates, you had one candidate who openly believes biological men should be allowed in women's restrooms and women's sports, and was not doing anything, and then you had another candidate who said 'this will be one of the first things I change,' and that's what Donald Trump did," Hammond said. "In the future, that's something I'm going to look for." Carpenter added, "I've always believed in voting based on the constitution… and while Title IX was not one of the first things that was brought up when our country was created, it goes back to the first amendment and basic human rights, and women deserve these rights too, and right now they're being given to men who feel a certain way." Additionally, while the trans athletes that each of the girls faced played into their trauma, their stand against the state's liberal laws on the issue is not directed at those individuals. It is directed at the lawmakers and education officials who have enabled the males to get to that point. "I feel that they've just been misled," Hammond said. "The faculty at my school is feeding this, the faculty at other schools are feeding this saying 'it's okay if you want to be another person.'" In the last few days, Oregon has become one of the nation's heated battlegrounds on the issues, as the state represents symbolic significance in the sport of track and field. Eugene, Oregon, nicknamed "TrackTown USA," often hosts the World Athletics Championships, U.S. Olympic Trials and NCAA Championships. Now, Anderson's stunt at the high school state championship has put the state under a national microscope and a legal firm has already taken steps to bring federal action against the state. While the Trump administration has focused much of its attention on the issues in Maine and California, launching federal investigations and even a Department of Justice lawsuit against Maine, the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) filed a civil rights complaint calling for federal intervention. "Our investigation into Title IX and First Amendment violations in Oregon is about standing up for girls and women sidelined, silenced, and stripped of the fairness and freedom they're guaranteed under federal law," AFPI senior legal strategy attorney Leigh Ann O'Neill told Fox News Digital. "When young women are told to compete against male athletes or stay quiet—or, worse, are punished for speaking the truth—we have to act. Because no one is above the Constitution—not even state sports officials." Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

5 ChatGPT Prompts To Be Generally Happier More Often
Most people spend hours chasing empty dopamine hits from social media, streaming, and shallow conversations. Anxiety ensues, and they wonder why they aren't happy. Days slip away on distractions instead of building the life that brings actual joy. Sound like you? What if a few simple prompts could completely transform your daily experience? Happiness requires intention. It's a simple choice. Stop reacting and start choosing happy. Copy, paste and edit the square brackets in ChatGPT, and keep the same chat window open so the context carries through. You carry subtle stressors that drain your energy every single day. The notifications that interrupt your focus. The commitments you never really wanted. The people who leave you feeling worse after every interaction. Remove these drains and watch your baseline happiness rise. Small stressors compound into major unhappiness over time. Get intentional about identifying them and cutting them out. "Based on what you know about me through our conversations, what are the subtle habits or behaviors that might be causing me low-level stress every day? Look for patterns in my routines, digital habits, work style, and social interactions that could be quietly draining my energy. For each habit you identify, suggest a small, practical change I could make starting tomorrow. Ask for more detail if required." The five people you spend the most time with shape your mood, beliefs, and actions more than anything else. Some lift you up. Others keep you stuck. Your friendship group determines your ceiling in almost every area of life. The wrong influences keep you playing small and feeling bad about yourself. The right ones push you forward and celebrate your wins. "Based on our previous conversations, help me analyze the five people who influence my mood and mindset the most. For each person, assess: 1) Whether they generally elevate or drain my energy, 2) Specific ways they impact my thinking and behavior, and 3) What boundaries or changes might improve our relationship. Then suggest a practical action plan for either strengthening positive influences or managing challenging ones. Encourage me to use voice mode." Your calendar reveals the truth about what you actually value. Not what you say you value. Look at where your time really goes. The meetings you attend. The blocks you schedule. The people you make time for. We often claim to value family, health, or creativity but our calendars tell a different story. Make your time align with your true values. "Analyze what my calendar reveals about my actual values and priorities. Based on our previous conversations, review how I spend my time and identify any misalignments between my stated values and my daily schedule. Then, suggest 3 specific calendar changes that would better reflect what matters most to me. What would a better version of me change? Include both additions (new blocks to create) and subtractions (things to eliminate or reduce): [Upload a screenshot of your calendar] Speed kills happiness. Racing through your days means missing the moments that matter. Always thinking about what's next instead of what's now. But you can choose to operate differently. Joy comes from focus and attention, not from checking more boxes. Take back control of your brain with a proper assessment and plan. "Create a powerful daily planning question that helps me choose joy over speed. The question should prompt me to reconsider how I approach my day, helping me prioritize meaningful experiences and satisfaction over just getting things done quickly. After providing the question, explain why it works psychologically and how it challenges my current patterns. Then, suggest 3 specific moments in my day when I should pause and ask myself this question for maximum impact." Your phone steals your happiness every morning. The moment you reach for it, your brain fills with other people's priorities, and a huge hit of dopamine. Notifications. News. Social media. You start reacting instead of creating. Morning sets the tone for everything that follows. Protect this time and your entire day transforms. Give yourself space to think and feel before consuming. "Based on what you know about me, if I stayed off my phone until 11am each day, what specific improvements might I experience in my mood, productivity, and overall happiness? Create a detailed picture of how my mornings could be different. Then provide 4 practical strategies to help me build and maintain this habit, including how to handle potential challenges like work expectations and the urge to check notifications.' Small changes to your inputs create massive shifts in your happiness. Find the stressors hiding in plain sight and examine the five people influencing you most.
