Hegseth’s remarks were in response to a tweet from Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in which she said targeting Iran’s cultural sites would make President Donald Trump a “monster.” “This is a war crime,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. “Threatening to target and kill innocent families, women and children - which is what you’re doing by targeting cultural sites - does not make you a tough guy. It does not make you ‘strategic.’ It makes you a monster....

I had a dismal Gameweek 6, and it was the two Spurs players who saved me, to some extent. Nevertheless, I recorded a sub-par 39 points, including a four-point hit that I took for drafting in Son. The major reason for this was that most of my premium FPL assets blanked, and one look at their upcoming fixtures made me understand that I have been backing the wrong players....

Less than a year ago, he campaigned to be “the purchasing-power president” who would lift the French economy and get a country accustomed to 35-hour weeks back to work. He has started the ball rolling on tough reforms, including ending special retirement privileges for certain public-sector employees and making work contracts more flexible....
