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.

Wake up, Jeff.” — Governor Gavin Newsom abruptly announced that he would remove all of his media content and partnerships from Amazon, denouncing the relationship between Jeff Bezos and Don@ld T.r.u.m.p. The statement quickly became an ultimatum that stunned both Bezos and the public. “You Trump supporters, you support division and hate. I cannot be a part of that,” Newsom declared in an official post on his personal page. Bezos, taken aback by this uncompromising decision, had no time to react — he could only remain silent in shock. Soon after, Donald Trump fired back fiercely on Truth Social, calling Newsom “an arrogant, attention-seeking politician.” But Gavin Newsom was undeterred. He responded with eight short, cold, and powerful words — words that silenced Trump, and sent social media into a frenzy of support. 💬 Comments went viral on X (old Twitter): “This is the first time anyone has spoken directly to Bezos and Trump like this.” “Newsom just turned Bezos’ silence into a moral judgment.” Meanwhile, political observers said it was a “bold but symbolic move” that marked a deep divide between politics and Big Tech. An editor at The Atlantic wrote: “Newsom understands that this is about more than just business — it’s about the soul of America.” At the same time, a wave of #BoycottAmazon calls spread on social media, with hundreds of thousands of people retweeting Newsom’s remarks, with the message: “If he can stand up, so can we.” While many saw it as a political gamble, there’s no denying one thing: Gavin Newsom has created a seismic shift in the relationship between political power and tech power. And by nightfall, his short tweet had been shared millions of times — a reminder that in today’s noisy world, sometimes just eight words can change everything……⤵️

BREAKING NEWS: Gavin Newsom just delivered a thunderous message that left some of the world’s richest and most influential people frozen in their seats — and then he backed it up with action… At a lavish black-tie gala in Manhattan — a room overflowing with billionaires, couture gowns, champagne towers, and egos big enough to cast shadows — Gavin Newsom stepped onto the stage to accept a prestigious Leadership Impact Award. Everyone expected a polished, diplomatic speech. Everyone expected safe applause lines. Everyone expected politics-as-usual. Instead, they got a shockwave. Rather than thanking corporate donors, praising elite partnerships, or reading a carefully massaged PR script, Newsom looked directly at a room filled with some of the wealthiest people on Earth — including Mark Zuckerberg and several Wall Street titans — and said: “If you’re blessed with wealth, use it to bless others. No one should build palaces while children have no homes. If you have more than you need, it isn’t truly yours — it belongs to those in need” The room went dead silent. Eyewitnesses said Zuckerberg and other tech magnates sat completely still — frozen, unsmiling, hands motionless above their napkins. No applause. No polite nods. Just the quiet shock of people hearing a truth sharper than any speechwriter would dare deliver. Of course they didn’t clap. Truth makes the comfortable uneasy. Because Gavin Newsom wasn’t speaking about envy — he was speaking about moral responsibility. A responsibility too many in that room preferred not to acknowledge. But he didn’t stop at words. What Gavin Newsom did next left many shocked and stunned…READ MORE BELOW👇👇👇
