Rep. Chip Roy: "We need the Virginia Supreme Court to save us by striking down this ridiculous redistricting map"

Good, at least France is speaking up and out against this barbaric administration! Thank you 🇫🇷.

“However, I believe this veto will be lifted and that these sanctions will be implemented in the coming days.”

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot: “If the Israeli government does not change its policies in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon we cannot act as if nothing has happened.

No surprise and what a waste of time, energy and resources.

Bibby Stockholm asylum barge contractor admits overcharging UK government £118m Australia’s Corporate Travel Management is ‘negotiating commercial arrangements’ to refund the money

Great match and Jesper gave it his all!! Well played Rafael💫

Rafael Jodar wins 2-6, 7-5, 6-4 against Jesper De Jong

Was a poor start but turned it around thereafter. Even still, was a tough one and De Jong came within a few points of the win in the 2nd set.

More change at the WTA . Just hoping player welfare is a top priority🙏

Endangered Mexican axolotl discovered by girl, 10, under a bridge in Wales Evie and her mother were enjoying a day trip to south Wales when they came across the amphibian.

Well done Katie❤️💙👏👏👏

Release the full #EpsteinFiles and bring to Justice the perpetrators?

Washington is pretending to look busy with phony investigations—but don't let them distract you from the cover-up.

The Epstein files remain hidden, and Pam Bondi still hasn’t appeared for questioning.

No hearings. No deposition date. No answers.

Clearing Strait of Hormuz of mines could take 6 months, Pentagon tells Congress — The Washington Post The Pentagon assessment, shared in a classified briefing for lawmakers, suggests gasoline and oil prices could remain elevated through the midterm elections.

No cheap gas/petrol on the horizon.

Or food.

The USS George H W Bush carrier strike group will arrive in the Middle East within 3-4 days, presumably ready for Trump’s deadline for Iran.

Interested to see if he’s prepared to deplete the entire stock of munitions and leave the US defenceless. Of course, Iran knows this.

Tehran Says It Has Seized Two Ships in Strait of Hormuz as Iranian Adviser Says Cease-Fire Means ‘Nothing’ — TIME Vessels came under fire in the Strait of Hormuz just hours after President Donald Trump announced an extension of the U.S.-Iran cease-fire.

All going swimmingly.

Map from UKMTO

An Iranian gunboat has attacked a container ship 15 nautical miles off Oman.

Former US Secretary of State John Kerry on Colbert: “Netanyahu presented the Iran War case to us too. The response was no. The prediction was regime change, that people would rise up. None of that happened.

“Obama said no. Bush said no. Biden said no. We were lied to about what that war was about.”

Just happy to see Venus💙We need to make the most of watching this tennis legend❤️🙌🏆

Kaitlin Quevedo wins 6 of the last 7 games and wins 6-2, 6-4 vs Venus Williams

Was 0-3 down in that 2nd set.

Glad Lois has overcome all her medical issues? But it's going to take time to get her fitness back? Peyton is one tough cookie so will give Aryna a tricky match.

Peyton Stearns wins 6-1, 6-3 vs Lois Boisson. Was Boisson's 1st match back in over 6 months after the quadriceps tear.

Stearns will face Sabalenka in R2 which is not the easiest opener that Sabalenka could have asked for her first clay match
