Simone Biles made a triumphant return to the Olympics! She posted an all-around total of 59.566 during Olympic qualifying inside a packed and star-studded Bercy Arena in Paris despite complaining of a left calf injury that had her limping. 🤩🇺🇸♥️

The American gymnastics star is in the lineup for all four events during Tuesday night’s Olympic team finals.

Biles tweaked her left calf while warming up for floor exercise during qualifying on Sunday. She retreated briefly to have the calf taped but then returned and posted the top scores on floor and vault on her way to topping the all-around.

 

 

 

Last week, U.S. team leaders had considered holding Biles out of the uneven bars in team finals to give her a small break during the Games. Instead, Biles will be part of every event during the finals, when three gymnasts compete and all three scores count. Her husband, Jonathan Owens, is expected to be there.

The Americans are heavily favored to win gold after finishing runner-up to Russia in Tokyo three years ago.

Biles will go last for the U.S. on three events – vault, floor exercise and balance beam – and will be up second on uneven bars.

Jordan Chiles, who finished fourth in the all-around during qualifying behind Biles, Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade and 2020 Olympic champion Sunisa Lee, will also compete on all four events.

Chiles, part of the silver medal-winning U.S. team three years ago, will lead off on vault, bars and balance beam and go second behind Lee on floor exercise.

Lee will be the third American on uneven bars, her signature event. She will be second on beam and first on floor exercise.

The only unexpected tweak to the lineup is on floor, where 2020 Olympic floor exercise champion Jade Carey will sit. Carey, who will vault, struggled on floor during qualifying and said afterward she is dealing with an illness.

Hezly Rivera, at 16 the youngest member of the five-woman team, is not scheduled to compete. Rivera was part of the lineup on bars and beam during qualifying, though her scores on each event were dropped from the team total.

🚨 BREAKING: Donald Trump has just been rocked by what insiders are calling his worst poll result ever, as a once-reliable Texas Republican stronghold stuns the nation by flipping blue. The shock numbers have sent tremors through conservative circles and triggered open panic among Trump allies. For decades, this seat was considered untouchable—a symbol of red-state dominance. But the latest polling tells a very different story. Voters appear to be breaking sharply away, signaling frustration, fatigue, and a growing appetite for change that party leaders failed to anticipate. This isn’t just a bad poll—it’s a warning siren. Strategists are scrambling, donors are nervous, and the narrative of “safe red territory” is collapsing in real time. If Texas can wobble, nothing is guaranteed anymore. The political map is shifting fast—and the fallout is only just beginning. 👇👇

🚨Trump PANICS after MASSIVE LOSS…IN TEXAS!!!⚡ Donald Trump is showing clear signs of panic as Texas begins to shift politically. In a stunning special election runoff for Texas State Senate District 9, a Democratic candidate flipped a seat that hadn’t gone blue since 1991—winning by 14 points in a district Trump had carried by 17. This represents a 31-point Democratic overperformance, despite Republicans outspending Democrats by $2.5 million. Trump had loudly endorsed the MAGA candidate before the election, calling her a “phenomenal” and “true MAGA warrior.” But after her crushing defeat, Trump suddenly claimed he didn’t know about the race and had “nothing to do with it,” contradicting his own public statements. The result highlights a broader trend: independents and Republicans are crossing over, while Democrats are gaining momentum by focusing on workers’ rights, affordability, and healthcare instead of culture wars. Additional Democratic wins in Texas House races have narrowed the GOP’s majority in Congress to a single vote. Taken together, these developments suggest Texas is becoming competitive—and a potential blue tsunami could spell serious trouble for Trump and MAGA Republicans in upcoming elections…👇
