Judge threatens Trump with jail time over violating gag order a live

Judge holds Donald Trump in contempt again for violating gag order

Hereas a look at judge Juan Merchanas latest criminal contempt order against Donald Trump, published just now. It cites the former presidentas social media attacks on the jury, and those he made in TV interviews:

This court finds that the People have established the elements of criminal contempt beyond a reasonable doubt. This courtas expanded order is lawful and unambiguous.

Defendant violated the order by making public statements about the jury and how it was selected. In doing so, defendant not only called into question the integrity, and therefore the legitimacy of these proceedings, but again raised the specter of fear for the safety of the jurors and of their loved ones.

House set to vote on Marjorie Taylor Greene effort to remove Mike Johnson

Far-right congresswoman has spearheaded effort to oust fellow Republican as speaker but motion to vacate widely expected to fail

The House is expected to vote this week on a motion to remove Republican Mike Johnson as speaker, but the effort, spearheaded by hard-right congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, faces virtually no chance of success.

Greene announced on Wednesday that she would move forward with forcing a vote on Johnsonas removal this week, following through on a threat she first issued in late March. Greene has consistently attacked Johnson for advancing bills that have attracted widespread bipartisan support, such as the government spending proposal approved in March and the foreign aid package signed into law last month.

University of Mississippi investigates student over Palestine counter-protest

Almost entirely white group made aoffensive, hurtful, and unacceptablea statements with aracist overtonesa, school says

The conduct of at least one student at the University of Mississippi is under official investigation after white counter-protesters at a pro-Palestinian demonstration made what the school called aoffensive, hurtful, and unacceptablea statements with aracist overtonesa.

The universityas chancellor, Glenn Boyce, said that a conduct investigation had been launched into one student and more might follow in the wake of Thursdayas volatile scenes on campus. The clash occurred after a diverse group of about 30 students protesting against Israelas war in Gaza were outnumbered by almost entirely white counter-protesters at a ratio of 10 to one, according to the Mississippi Free Press.

Russia-Ukraine war live: Kyiv urges allies not to recognise Putin as alegitimate presidenta as Moscow announces nuclear weapons drills

Kremlin says tactical drills are a response to statements from the west about possibly sending troops to Ukraine

The British ambassador to Moscow, Nigel Casey, was summoned to the Russian foreign ministry, Russian state agency RIA reported on Monday. Reuters said the ministry did not give the reason but there is speculation that it is linked to statements made last week by the foreign secretary, David Cameron, saying he had no issue with British-supplied weapons being used by Ukraine to strike inside Russia.

It comes as Russia has cited statements by the west as justification for upcoming nuclear weapons drills.

Scientists create vaccine with potential to protect against future coronaviruses

Researchers say experimental shot is step towards goal of creating vaccines before a pandemic has started

Scientists have created a vaccine that has the potential to protect against a broad range of coronaviruses, including varieties that are not yet even known about.

The experimental shot, which has been tested in mice, marks a change in strategy towards aproactive vaccinologya, where vaccines are designed and readied for manufacture before a potentially pandemic virus emerges.

Boeing hopes to polish its reputation with Starliner crew capsule launch

Company, which has been plagued by safety issues in its avionics wing, will send two astronauts to the ISS in its new spacecraft

Boeing has an opportunity on Monday night to restore some luster to its tarnished name, with the scheduled first crewed launch from Florida of Starliner, a pioneering new capsule designed to transform human exploration of space.

Although the companyas space operations are entirely independent of its aviation wing, which has been plagued by a recent series of safety and quality issues, the spacecraftas pathway to the Cape Canaveral launchpad, and planned 10.34pm ET liftoff, has been similarly bumpy.

Drake has denied allegations of child sex offences and of him harbouring a secret child, both levelled at him by Kendrick Lamar in recent days.

The enmity between the rap superstars has escalated over a series of diss tracks in the past few weeks, culminating in a flurry of activity during the weekend with three tracks by Lamar and two by Drake.

Jokes about massages, OJ and Gisele divorce fly in Tom Brady comedy roast

Tom Brady took his share of barbs from comedians, former teammates and his longtime coach on Sunday night during a comedy roast on Netflix.

aItas like a football game. You run with a game plan, and then you get to see kind of how the strategy goes, and then you adjust on the fly,a Brady said before the three-hour event. aThis is what a locker room has been like for me for all these years. So itas not like Iam used to people not making fun of me.a

An impressive lineup of comedians, former teammates and opponents took the stage. Host Kevin Hart said before the event that no topic was off limits, and Hart went on the offensive early with jokes about Bradyas ex-wife, Gisele BA1/4ndchen.

aGisele gave you an ultimatum. She said you retire or weare done. When you got a chance to go 8-9 and all it will cost you is your wife and your kids, youave got to do what youave got to do,a Hart said, referring to Brady coming out of a brief retirement in 2022 for one more season.

The only time Brady objected to a joke was when Jeff Ross made a reference to Patriots owner Robert Kraft and massages. In 2019, Kraft originally received a misdemeanor charge that he paid for sex at a Florida massage parlor. Prosecutors later dropped the charge after courts blocked the use of video from cameras installed by police inside the massage parlors.

In the sketch, Ross joked about Kraft offering Brady a massage when he first joined the Patriots. On Sunday, Brady walked up to Ross and said in his ear adonat say that shit againa, but it was clearly caught on the microphone and heard by those watching the roast at home. It was not heard by those in attendance.

Later, Kraft and former Patriots coach Bill Belichick did a shot together on stage after some coaxing from Hart.

Belichick was fired in January after 24 seasons with the Patriots, and a lot has been written about friction between the six-time winning Super Bowl coach and owner over the past couple years.

After joking about this being like a reunion and aunlike many family reunions there are some people I am desperately trying to avoida, Kraft praised Belichick for what the two accomplished.

aI want to say this is the greatest coach in the history of the game that did what no one else has done. And having Tom Brady and him was the greatest honor the good Lord gave me,a Kraft said.

aWe deserve morea: US workersa share of the pie dwindles

Bureau of Labor Statistics releases latest estimate of how much labor receives of national income, showing bleak decline

When Jesse Motte began working at a Starbucks inside a Target store in Columbia, South Carolina, more than two years ago, $15 an hour sounded great. He was excited to start because it was the most he had ever made after working for years in the service industry.

The excitement has dissipated due to his inconsistent and erratic work schedule, the rising costs of necessities and the minuscule raises he and his co-workers receive annually. His most recent annual wage increase was $0.37 an hour.

aI am ready to return whenever they saya: Nasrin Sotoudeh on prison, the hijab, and violence in Iran

Exclusive: the human rights lawyer, temporarily released from jail on medical grounds, describes her love for her family, and why she keeps going despite brutal treatment at the hands of the regime

Iranas Qarchak jail has been called many things: a torture chamber; the worst womenas prison in the world; unfit for humans. Nasrin Sotoudeh uses just one word to describe the nine months she spent there: aHell.a

Sotoudeh does not speak of the appalling conditions or stench of sewage, the undrinkable water or lack of food, the disease or cruelty of solitary confinement. She simply says: aI am ready to return whenever they say.a

aEverythingas just a| on holda: the Netherlandsa next-level housing crisis

Amsterdammers find themselves at the nadir of a Europe-wide housing shortage. But some bold initiatives offer hope

It started maybe 10 years ago, says Tamara Kuschel. Since the 1970s, the charity she works for in Amsterdam, De Regenboog, has run day shelters for homeless people a typically, people with serious addiction and mental health issues.

Then, in about 2015, a new kind of client began to appear. aThey didnat have the usual problems of homeless people,a Kuschel says. aThey had jobs, friends. In every respect, their lives were very much together. But they couldnat afford a home.a

I bought Trumpas Bible a a blasphemous, sticky nightmare

Trump Steaks, Trump Vodka, and various Trump casinos have all failed a but has the ex-president finally found himself a winning product?

There was a time, not so long ago, that Donald Trump did not seem to be very familiar with the Bible.

When he first ran for the nomination of the very Christian Republican party, Trump was unable to name a single Bible verse. Early in his 2016 presidential campaign he referred to the eucharist as a alittle crackera. In a subsequent church visit, as he attempted to prove his religious credentials, he put cash in a plate that was meant to hold the communion.

Double fault: Challengers is as bad in the bedroom as it is on the tennis court

Critics might have fallen for Luca Guadagninoas erotic tennis romp but itas a vapid string of disappointing choices

I have spent the week and a half since seeing Challengers on the brink of throwing a racquet-trashing, expletive-scattering, McEnroe-style tantrum. Is Hawkeye working? Did they not see it? How, for an exhausting Mahut-Isner length of huffing and puffing, practically every single one of the wild swings taken by Luca Guadagninoas film missed its target and landed out by a country mile? Four-star reviews? Five-star reviews? Camon, fellow critics. You cannot be serious.

Some points I will concede as inarguable. The film is a box-office champion. And itas pure fire on the internet, a movie more memeable than even the sainted Saltburn. There are clear generational issues in play: I can see why excitable younger viewers, raised on a largely sexless cinema, have fallen so hard for the filmas sprayed-on sweat and forceful faux sophistication. Itas my senior-tour colleagues Iam staring at with hands on hips, wearing an expression of disbelief. The film theyave been politely applauding looks to me less a modern classic than another marker of American cinemaas ongoing infantilisation: a Muppet Babies redo of Jules and Jim.

Possibly some spectators were swayed by the spirit of indulgence fostered by the filmas on-screen umpire, handing out code violations as if they were candy. (In actual tennis, those breaches of court decorum have consequences: loss of whole games and matches. Not so in Luca-land.) Swallow those, and maybe youall also overlook how neither of the filmas male leads persuade as the whey-bulked jocks observed swaggering around Americaas secondary tennis circuits. Even at their most drained, Art (Mike Faist) and Patrick (Josh OaConnor) resemble the gauche nerds of a thousand other teen comedies, sniggering at their own witless masturbation stories.

Doctor Who first look review a Ncuti Gatwa will make this show far more fun than itas been for years

This is it! The Fifteenth Doctor is here a and heas a dazzling, all-singing, all-dancing delight. If only Russell T Davies didnat spend so much time spoon-feeding new fans

Christmas specials donat count. Intermediate trilogies where David Tennant is the Fourteenth-and-a-Half Doctor or whatever donat count. The new era of Doctor Who, with Russell T Davies back as the showrunner and Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor, only really begins here, with the new season proper. The first double bill, comprising Space Babies and The Devilas Chord, points to a stellar future for Who as a youthfully chaotic playground of the imagination, far more fancy of foot and light of outlook than it has been for years. It only takes baby steps, for now, towards that new destination, but we can see it.

Gatwa establishes himself as a cracking Doctor immediately. What an obviously perfect piece of casting he is: commandingly hench in his colourful costumes, and naturally able to express the dazzling extremes the Doctor has to embody. He glowers, and the end of the world descends; a nanosecond later, he grins and weare having the most fun in the universe. Heas delightful, but heas also consciously more delighted than some of his predecessors, skipping and dancing and, on a few occasions here, doing a sideways gallop when he enters a room, like Kramer from Seinfeld with springs on his heels.

We all want to cut out the bad parts of ourselves. It wonat work, and it wonat make us happier

Trauma, vulnerability, dependency a| like it or not, we canat just wish them away

When I was a little girl, I cried a lot. I used to wish ferociously that I was not such a crybaby. I remember the shame so well. Sitting on my bed on a Sunday evening, hot-cheeked and furious with my tears, holding on to the thought that when I was a grownup, I would never cry. I would be a strong, confident and capable woman, and I would never again feel like a sobbing little girl who doesnat want to go to school tomorrow and just wants to stay with her mum. I hated that part of myself and I desperately wanted to get rid of it. That is what a better life meant to me back then.

Since becoming a psychotherapist, I have seen this kind of wish at play in patient after patient a and Iave continued to see it in myself as a patient in therapy, too. It seems to be a pretty ubiquitous desire, although we are not always aware of it: this wish and even belief that if we just try hard enough, if we can find the magic self-help book or therapist or personal trainer or Instagram filter, we will truly be able to get rid of the parts of ourselves we feel ashamed of, or hate, or donat want to acknowledge.

aA wild cocktail of emotion, politics and desirea: the history of breasts in art

From lactating Madonnas to disembodied orbs, a new exhibition surveys the depictions of breasts and asks a what about the women who own them?

Breasts have been a focus in the culture wars of the last 50-odd years. Second-wave feminists casting off their bras in the 1970s come to mind, and then ongoing judgment-filled debates around breastfeeding, and the even more fraught, and recent, hostilities around trans healthcare. Recent celebrations of female sensuality manifested in things like #freethenip, hot girl summer, widening conversations around sexual pleasure, and the body positivity movement all take breasts as a key motif, too.

But for all the girlies freeing their nips on Instagram, itas much rarer to see them free on the street. We keep them under wraps and rarely articulate why they seem to be so contentious. The potency of breasts as symbols of things as disparate but overlapping as gender, eroticism and motherhood makes them the nexus of a wild cocktail of emotions, politics and desires.

aGissa job!a How Bernard Hill created one of TVas most tragic and unforgettable characters

Playing unhinged head-butting Yosser Hughes in Boys from the Blackstuff made Hill a legend. But, from Titanic to The Lord of the Rings, his entire 50-year career was outstanding

Some time in 1980, on the first sheet of a script that would eventually run to 221 pages, Alan Bleasdale typed the line: We see Yosser with his three children. He is leaning forward.

When the jobcentre clerk explains he is aafraida he canat do anything, the pale-faced, dark-moustached man snaps: aAfraid? Yall be terrified in a minute. [Leans in.] Now sort me soddina Giro check out before I knock yainto the disability department.a

The pet Iall never forget: Babyleaf, the feral kitten who tamed me

She came into my life just when I needed her, and together we worked on our traumas. But it could not last a|

Iad been feeding the stray cat for months before she brought them to our door: a gang of feral and frail-looking kittens. Iad never had a pet before, and, like many people who do not grow up with animals, I perhaps lacked a certain emotional dimension. The arrival of this bunch of spitters and shakers cracked me wide open, and right when I needed it.

It was 2016, and I was living as a property guardian in a disused care home in east London. I was 23, and I was broke, ambitious and ill. Back then I could be found having routine panic attacks in a PPE-blue ex-NHS bathroom. These days, I know all this to be the ripples of complex post-traumatic stress disorder. At the time, however, I just assumed this was what happened to unemployed writers. Enter Kitten Babyleaf and her fluffy kin a seemingly as traumatised, adrift and desperate for security as me.

The Bauhaus Nazis: the collaborators a and worse a among the design icons

They were seen as heroes and martyrs who defied the Nazis. But a new show in Weimar reveals horrifying details about some Bauhauslers, one of whom designed the crematoriums at Auschwitz

If the day of Otti Bergeras death is not known, its place and cause are. In April 1944, Berger a part deaf, Jewish, a communist a was arrested in her home town of Zmajevac, in German-occupied Yugoslavia. On 29 May, she was put on a transport to Auschwitz. After that, nothing.

Of the eight Bauhaus students to die at Auschwitz a half the number murdered in other camps and ghettoes a Berger was the best known. With Anni Albers and Gunta StAPlzl, she had revolutionised weaving, turning it from a craft into an art. She had come to Dessau a the iteration of the school most of us think of as the Bauhaus a in 1927, when she was 28. That same year, belatedly, the school had opened a department of architecture. A few months later, a young Austrian called Fritz Ertl signed up to study at it.

Donat let the sound and fury over Gaza protests drown out what the students are saying | Nesrine Malik

At Columbia University I saw young people who feel they have no choice but to risk their futures

On a hot day last week, the pavements outside Columbia University were heaving. About 200 protesters were gathered, making a noise that was bigger than their numbers, raising pro-Palestine chants and signs. It was a disparate crowd, diverse across ethnicities and generations. aIave lived in this neighbourhood all my life,a said one of them when I asked him why he was there. One smiling elderly lady walked through the crowd offering small bottles of water. A helicopter circled overhead. The police who encircled the crowd were jittery, yelling at passersby to keep moving, and raising the temperature of what was a loud but perfectly orderly and amiable crowd.

Once inside the campus, I made my way to the reason for protesters, the police and the high security at the university gates: an encampment of students on a patch of lawn at the heart of campus. It had been up for about two weeks at this point, after a series of demands to university administrators, including divestment from acompanies and institutions that profit from Israeli apartheida, were not met.

Vampire facials, under-eye fillers, aprejuvenationa: how did cosmetic tweakments get so extreme? | Georgina Lawton

Cosmetic procedures are on the rise among younger people; Iam barely 30. Still this is about more than just clinging to youth

Everyone goes through it: a reckoning with oneas own mortality in the mirror, poking at eye bags and tugging at folds of loose skin. Am I looking a bit rough? Itas part of the human condition to fear ageing, but among millennials and gen Z there seems to be a heightened anxiety around growing older, coupled with an increasingly casual attitude towards getting fillers and Botox compared with previous generations.

Almost half of millennial women polled by the BBC in 2019 said they believed that having a cosmetic procedure was akin to having a haircut. I can say from experience that it is not. Like many, I have fallen victim to negative anti-ageing rhetoric. After months of staring at my tired face on Zoom calls during lockdown, I felt as if my hot years were slipping through my fingers. When the world opened up, I found a doctor to arestorea my hollowed out under-eyes with 1ml of filler. I was barely 28.

I love Vogueas idea of aBritish girl energya. But what does it involve? M&S knickers? Weaponised politeness? | Emma Beddington

Our national style is anot too polisheda, apparently, and aa little bit undonea. Can we be a bit more specific?

Chioma Nnadi, who has taken over at British Vogue, says she has settled back in seamlessly after 20 years out of the UK. aI realised just how much growing up in London shaped me,a she told a Vogue Club podcast. aIave been talking a lot with my friends about this idea of British girl energy; itas just an irreverence, kind of a cheekiness, itas not too polished, and itas a little bit undone a|a

British girl energy, eh? I love this: time for us to claim our own style identity, like the French or the Scandinavians; something to be spoken of in vague, reverent generalities. This could be our new Cool Britannia moment, without the Gallagher brothers ruining everything. But what is BGE, beyond Nnadias idea of cheekiness and lack of polish?

I stopped lying to please people a and Iave never felt more free | Radhika Sanghani

Radical honesty isnat for the faint-hearted, but itas one of the greatest joys Iave ever discovered

I never used to think of myself as a liar. I always saw myself as an honest person. The only time Iad ever veer from the truth was to protect someoneas feelings. But that wasnat really lying, I would tell myself, it was an act of kindness!

And then I had a therapy session, where I realised that all of this was actually people-pleasing behaviour and it turned out I was a prolific liar. Not only that, but according to my therapist, by constantly hiding my true feelings to protect those I loved, I was blocking them from ever getting to know the real me and creating true intimacy.

I was a running addict a but pushing myself to the limit led to two knee replacements | Rod Gilchrist

Beware what the fitness gurus tell you: the body has its limits. Perhaps thatas why orthopaedic waiting lists are so long

I am preparing for an anaesthetist to sink a hypodermic needle into my back at a busy London hospital ahead of a scheduled surgery to replace my knee. Knowing this might be painful, I ask a fellow patient how he got his mind around the jab. aTwo spliffs of good dope worked for me,a he confessed. Iam yet to try that, but this is my second left knee replacement in less than 15 years a an increasingly common story as our population ages and obesity levels cause growing strain on our joints.

More than 2m hip and knee replacements have been performed in the UK since the early 2000s and waiting lists continue to grow. By 2060, demand for hip and knee joint replacement (based on data for England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man) is estimated to increase by almost 40%.

Premier League: 10 talking points from the weekendas football action

Mikel Arteta keeps cool, Jacob Murphy proves his worth and Elijah Adebayo states his case for a top-flight stay

From touchline handbags in London with his manager a week ago to this: an individual performance of verve and efficiency to go with collective success, Mohamed Salah smiling once again. Much has been written and said about the Egyptian forward, of his recent struggles, future and behaviour. But a career as storied as his requires him to put aside the noise and go again, an internal wiring that is present among only the best. Salah was electric against Tottenham, striking the bar with a cross-turned-shot and forcing a strong save from Guglielmo Vicario inside the first 10 minutes. The post was struck not long after, though the offside flag went up too, and then came the goal just 16 minutes in, masterful movement at the far post preceding a clinical header. He was present in the build-up to Liverpoolas other three goals, allowing JA1/4rgen Klopp a gorgeous afternoon of Anfield sunshine and fist pumps as that final goodbye inches closer. Taha Hashim

Naoya Inoue knocks out Luis Nery to retain undisputed junior featherweight championship a as it happened

Jason Moloney is in big trouble against Yoshiki Takei in the final undercard bout ahead of the main event. Six rounds into their scheduled 12-round fight and itas unclear if the Australian has managed to win a single round. Takei, a former K-1 kickboxing champion, appears within touching distance of winning a world title in only his ninth professional fight.

Hereas a look at how Inoue and Nery measure up ahead of tonightas main event. Both men stand 5ft 5in, while Inoue brings a two-and-a-half-inch reach advantage into the ring. Each came in comfortably below the junior featherweight division limit of 122lbs at yesterdayas official weigh-in.
