FOX 24 US In yet another blow to the Trump administration’s ongoing redistricting pressure campaign, a federal court on Tuesday enjoined the use of Texas’ new map and ordered it to use its previous map for the 2026 election. In his ruling, District Judge Jeff Brown, who is a 2019 Trump appointee, said in his ruling that the map is racially gerrymandered. “The public perception of this case is that it’s about politics. To be sure, politics played a role in drawing the 2025 Map,” Brown wrote. “But it was much more than just politics. Substantial evidence shows that Texas…

FOX 24 US The House of Representatives on Tuesday comfortably passed a measure that will compel the Justice Department to release files on the Jeffrey Epstein case.

It wasn’t until the late ’70s, when she obtained her birth certificate in order to change her full name to just Cher, that she discovered that she had been registered as “Cheryl.” In her 2024 memoir, Cher: The Memoir, Part One, the pop icon recalled her mom Georgia Holt’s reaction to this discovery.
