Huge blow as Chelsea star ruled out of Euro 2025

Chelsea defender Millie Bright has ruled herself out of England's Euro 2025 squad for this summer's tournament. Bright's decision comes ahead of Sarina Wiegman's squad announcement, with the 31-year-old admitting she is not 'able to give 100%' physically or mentally' to the Lionesses. England begin their Euro 2025 campaign against France on July 5th. 'This is one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make, but after careful thought and discussions with my team, I have decided to withdraw from selection for the England squad ahead of Euro 2025,' Bright said in an Instagram post. Advertisement 'Football has given me so much, and representing my country has always been my greatest honour. My pride and ego tells me to go but I think the team and the fans deserve more. Right now, I'm not able to give 100 per cent mentally or physically.' Bright's announcement follows the decisions of Mary Earps and Fran Kirby to retire from international duty. Earps has called time on her career with the Lionesses after being replaced as number one goalkeeper. Wiegman's squad will now be absent of several leaders from the squad's that won the European Championship in 2022 and reached the World Cup final in 2023. Bright captained the side at that latter tournament in the absence of injured Arsenal star Leah Williamson. The former has won 88 caps for the national team.

Is Instagram the New Celebrity Dating App?

As the official start to summer approaches, many singles are on the hunt for a romantic partner to spend the season with. Some may be on the prowl at parties or swiping through dating apps, others may be shooting their shot on Instagram. For celebrities in particular, Instagram has become an unexpectedly successful matchmaker, with a growing number of high-profile couples crediting their love stories to private messages sent on the app. In December 2022, the country singer Kelsea Ballerini sent a direct message on Instagram to the actor Chase Stokes at 1:07 a.m.: 'hiii chase stokes.' A little over two hours later, the actor responded, 'Hey there how u doin.' They've been in a relationship for more than two years. Kyle Kuzma, the stylish N.B.A. player, sent the model Winnie Harlow a message on Instagram in 2019 and reached out again in spring 2020. She hadn't seen his first message, but she saw the second and replied. In December, they became engaged. The actress Vanessa Hudgens sent a message to Cole Tucker, a former baseball player, after spotting him in a virtual meditation session led by Jay Shetty. 'I get on the Zoom, and I'm like, 'Who is that?'' she shared on 'The Drew Barrymore Show.' 'If I want something or someone, I'm going after them. I fully just slid into his DMs and was like, 'Hey, it was nice to meet you.'' They married in November 2023. Natalie Joy DM'd the former 'Bachelor' Nick Viall in September 2019, after one of Mr. Viall's Instagram photos popped up on Ms. Joy's Explore page: 'You're unreal,' she wrote. In April 2024, they married. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Elon Musk is now using Trump's favorite weapon against him

With just those posts, the Tesla CEO and owner of X (formerly Twitter) disrupted Republican momentum on one of their top legislative priorities, sending senators scrambling and shifting the trajectory of a bill that had been months in the making. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt implied on Tuesday that the Musk post was old news and Trump 'already knows' how the tech entrepreneur felt on the bill. But 'This is one big, beautiful bill, and [Trump is] sticking to it,' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Related : Advertisement However within hours, Republican lawmakers who had spent months negotiating the tax-and-trade package began scrambling, while the bill's detractors gleefully piled on. House Speaker Mike Johnson weighed in, Senate Majority Leader John Thune also pushed back on Musk's argument, saying 'Obviously [Musk] has some influence, got a big following on social media,' he said. 'The question for our members is going to be, would you prefer the alternative? And the alternative isn't a good one.' Advertisement Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul, who long opposed the bill, wanted to join the Wisconsin Republican Senator Ron Johnson said Musk's warning 'bolsters' his case against new spending in the bill. Even Musk's tactic mirrors Trump's pre- and post-presidency strategy of derailing legislation with social media blasts rather than traditional lobbying. When Trump opposed a deal on immigration or infrastructure, he didn't hold a press conference. He posted. And Republicans often reversed course. The power wasn't in the policy argument, it was in the signal it sent to voters and activists. Now, Musk is testing that same method. He framed his opposition to the bill in libertarian terms of wasteful spending, bloated government, and runaway debt. But there's another explanation: the bill threatens his company Tesla. Related : The Big Beautiful Bill would roll back parts of the Inflation Reduction Act, including electric vehicle subsidies, battery production credits, and clean energy incentives. Musk didn't say that directly. Instead, he positioned his objection as ideological. But policy details suggest a more self-interested motive. This dynamic is increasingly important. Musk isn't just reacting to policy. He's trying to shape it and potentially block it. Democrats may try to amend the bill or preserve key provisions. But the central question isn't what Democrats do in the minority. It's whether Musk now holds effective veto power over Republican policymaking, in a way Trump has had the exclusive right to do for years. Advertisement If Musk succeeds, this probably won't be a one-time effort. It will likely become part of his broader playbook. He has followers and influence. That influence could grow. Musk's audience includes tech leaders, investors, libertarians, and a vocal online base that overlaps with the new populist right. When he speaks, elected officials listen if not for guidance, then for political safety. Related : For example, Musk warned voters will 'fire all the politicians who betrayed the American people' if they supported the bill. Yet all of this action comes just as Musk claimed a few weeks ago that he was stepping back from politics entirely. 'I'm going to do a lot less in the future,' He may not be spending money right now, but clearly, he's still spending influence. What makes this especially potent is Musk's ability to blur roles. He's not a donor or a candidate at the moment. He isn't even a 'special government employee' in the White House. And Musk doesn't have to be consistent. He can criticize government programs while profiting from them. He can call for deregulation while relying on federal contracts. Like Trump, the effectiveness lies in the disruption, not the coherence. And not for nothing, disruption is good for the X business bottom line as well in terms of user engagement. Advertisement This isn't a traditional power structure. It's a new one: driven by algorithms, attention, and reaction. And it raises real questions about where political authority now resides. That's why this moment matters. If the Big Beautiful Bill collapses under pressure from Musk's post, it sets a precedent. It confirms that he can shape the GOP's legislative agenda without holding office or formal political power even over the objections of Trump who just wants a bill on his desk. If this strategy works, future debates over energy, trade, taxes—even foreign policy—could all start with the same question we used to ask of Trump: What did Elon Musk post today?
