Powerball jackpot reaches $700 million ahead of Saturday drawing
The biggest Powerball jackpot of the year continues to grow, with an estimated prize of $700 million after no ticket matched all winning numbers in Wednesday's drawing. The lucky winner of Saturday's drawing could choose between the full jackpot paid in annual installments over 29 years or a one-time cash payment of $316.3 million before taxes, according to Powerball. Wednesday night's drawing marked the 36th consecutive round without a grand prize winner since a $204.5 million ticket was claimed in California on May 31. The numbers drawn on Wednesday were 31, 59, 62, 65, 68, and Powerball 5. MORE: Powerball grows to $643 million jackpot after no one wins Monday While nobody matched all six numbers, Wednesday's drawing produced several other winners, according to Powerball. A Tennessee player matched five numbers and included the Power Play option, securing a $2 million prize. Two other tickets matched five numbers for $1 million each. Additionally, 30 tickets won $50,000 by matching four numbers plus the Powerball, with eight of those winners doubling their prize to $100,000 through the Power Play option. The current jackpot towers above other 2025 prizes, though it hasn't reached the heights of 2024's staggering $1.3 billion jackpot claimed by Cheng "Charlie" Saephan in Oregon last April. The second-highest prize this year was a $526.5 million jackpot won by a California ticket holder. Players can purchase $2 tickets in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Some states offer online purchasing options through official channels or licensed services. The drawing is scheduled for 10:59 p.m. ET on Saturday. For an additional dollar, players can add the Power Play option, which multiplies non-jackpot prizes by up to five times. In select states, a separate Double Play option allows participants to enter a second drawing for up to $10 million.

Trump to sign executive order to punish those who burn American flags
President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order on Thursday that would direct the Justice Department to try to bring charges against people who burn the American flag, a White House official told CNN. The order is not expected to outright criminalize the act of burning the American flag, the official said, but rather directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to review cases where the flag has been set on fire and determine whether charges can be brought under existing laws. A 1989 Supreme Court ruling determined that burning the American flag in political protest is protected under the First Amendment. NewsNation first reported Trump's plans for the executive order. This is a developing story and will be updated.

Missing woman's body found in California forest and detectives believe her husband has fled to Peru
LANCASTER, Calif. (AP) — The body of a missing woman was found in a Southern California forest days after her husband was recorded on surveillance video dragging something heavy out of their apartment complex north of Los Angeles, authorities said this week. Sheylla Cabrera, 33, of Lancaster, was reported missing on Aug. 12, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The next day, homicide detectives located the footage of her husband, Jossimar Cabrera, 36, hauling an object wrapped 'in a large piece of material' from the residence where the couple lived with their three young sons, the statement said. On Aug. 16, searchers discovered Sheylla Cabrera's body wrapped in similar material at the bottom of an embankment in Angeles National Forest south of Lancaster, the department said. The coroner's office will determine the cause of death. Officials said Cabrera's husband fled to Peru with the couple's sons. Peru's foreign ministry said Saturday on social media that it had repatriated the children back to Los Angeles via Mexico City to be reunited with their mother's family. Jossimar Cabrera is believed to still be in Peru, LA County sheriff's officials said. The Los Angeles Times said Tuesday that Peruvian media reported that officials questioned Cabrera at the airport in Lima and took the children into protective custody, but didn't detain him. Sheylla Cabrera's mother, Helga Rocillo, told the Peruvian news outlet Latina Noticias that her daughter had intended on filing a criminal report against her husband due to alleged psychological and physical abuse, according to the Times. Sheriff's detectives are in the process of presenting the case to the Los Angeles County district attorney's office for possible murder charges. The DA's office said it hadn't yet received the case as of Thursday morning.
