Former President Donald Trump is set to address evangelical Christian voters at a major gathering Saturday in Washington, where he will seek to shore up their support as his legal troubles mount and rivals take aim at his character.

A growing number of people -- many in medical or artistic fields -- have found themselves catapulted into the digital limelight after becoming accidental stars in the ASMR community.

As the investigation continues into how and when the Titan submersible imploded while on a deep-sea voyage to the Titanic wreckage last weekend, a submersible expert says he warned the vessel's CEO about safety concerns after a trip years ago.

Ilia Topuria and Josh Emmett will go head to head in a UFC Fight Night main event tonight, in what should be an entertaining clash of featherweight contenders. Emmett, 38, enters the bout on the back of a dispiriting loss, having been submitted by Yair Rodriguez with the interim title on the line in February. However, the American was on an encouraging win streak before that defeat, and he will feel that he can re-enter the title picture if he secures an impressive victory on Saturday. That would be more easily said than done, however, with Topuria not only unbeaten as a professional but having won 12 of his 13 fights via stoppage. In his last outing, the Georgian, 26, stunned Bryce Mitchell by submitting the submission specialist in December. An undisputed champion will be crowned in July, when Rodriguez challenges official champion Alexander Volkanovski, and the winner of Saturday’s main event may even mark themselves out as the next contender for the gold. Here’s all you need to know. When is it? The event will take place on Saturday 24 June, at the Vystar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville. The prelims are set to begin at 4.30pm BST (8.30am PT, 10.30am CT, 11.30am ET). The main card is then due to follow at 8pm BST (12pm PT, 2pm CT, 3pm ET). How can I watch it? The card will air live on BT Sport in the UK, with the broadcaster’s app and website also streaming the fights. In the US, ESPN+ will stream the action live, as will the UFC’s Fight Pass.

Fans finally got to watch Artic Monkeys' hotly anticipated Glastonbury set after they returned to the biggest weekend in music for the third time. The iconic British band took to the Pyramid stage on Friday night (23 June), playing a wide range of songs from their extensive catalogue, including old classics like 'Mardy Bum' to tracks off of their latest album, The Car. The band came on stage just after 10pm following Royal Blood as well as the mystery band 'The Churnups', who turned out to be The Foo Fighters. However, some were left disappointed by the band's performance. One Twitter user posted a video of the band's set where a man in the crowd is seen yawning with the caption "sums it up". Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Some said the band 'butchered' the show, whilst others nostalgically longed for the time the band was "good". "I'm sorry but I refuse to believe anyone enjoys watching Arctic Monkeys live," wrote one user. "They sound so off beat, slow and lazy." Others called frontman Alex Turner "pretentious": However, many still enjoyed the set and criticised those who were complaining: There were worries that the headliners would pull out before the show, after cancelling a concert in Dublin a few days before the festival. The band were "extremely sorry" for having to cancel their show at Marlay Park, Dublin, after they revealed lead singer Alex Turner was "suffering from acute laryngitis" and "has been ordered to rest."

It will be No 5 vs No 9 in the UFC featherweight division tonight, as Josh Emmett faces Ilia Topuria in a Fight Night main event. Emmett, 38, is looking to bounce back from a tough loss, having been submitted by Yair Rodriguez in February as the pair fought for the interim title. Prior to that defeat, however, Emmett was on a fine win streak, and the American might even re-enter the title picture with an impressive win on Saturday. He faces a tough test in Topuria, though, with the 26-year-old entering Jacksonville with a 13-0 professional record, including 12 stoppage wins. Most recently, the Georgian overcame Bryce Mitchell in December, stunning the submission specialist by forcing him to tap out. With that win, Topuria entered the top 10 at featherweight, and he can take another step forwards tonight. An undisputed champion will be crowned in July, when Rodriguez challenges official champion Alexander Volkanovski, and the winner of Saturday’s main event may even mark themselves out as the next contender for the gold.

Manchester United are contemplating handing their famous number seven shirt to Alejandro Garnacho. It was last worn by Cristiano Ronaldo, but has been vacant since his contract at Old Trafford was mutually terminated back in November.

The search for the Titan submersible that captivated the world came to an abrupt and grim end this week after fragments of the vessel were detected on the ocean floor near the Titanic. The discovery led the US Coast Guard to announce the ship likely imploded, killing all five passengers aboard.

A day before the disappearance of the doomed Titan submersible, a British businessman and explorer wrote of his pride to be "going down to the Titanic" as a mission specialist.

Two of the richest men are going head to head in a cage fight, but who would win if Elon Musk went toe to toe with Mark Zuckerberg? In case you missed it, the tech billionaires appear to have verbally agreed to a fight after Musk said that he was “up for a cage match” after rumours emerged that the Meta boss was working on a Twitter rival. Zuckerberg responded with a screenshot of Musk’s tweet with the caption “send me location”. A spokesperson for Meta confirmed to The Verge that Mr Zuckerberg’s response was not a joke, saying “the story speaks for itself”. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Then, Musk replied to news of the fight on Twitter and appeared to set the location as “Vegas Octagon” – UFC Apex centre in Nevada. So, who would win? We’re going to stick our necks out here – we’re absolutely convinced Zuckerberg could win this one pretty comfortably. First of all, it looks like he’s been spending more time on MMA than developing the metaverse at this point. He previously posted about his martial arts training on Facebook. Back in May, he competed in his first jiu-jitsu tournament, having trained with UFC prospects in the build-up. “Competed in my first jiu jitsu tournament and won some medals for the Guerrilla Jiu Jitsu team,” the 38-year-old wrote on Instagram, alongside some photos of him taking part. He genuinely seems pretty good at it too, despite some confusion over the result of one referee ruling. The 38-year-old actually won gold and silver medals at his first public competition. Referee Lucas Costa, who is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu expert, previously spoke to bloodyelbow.com about his prowess as a fighter. Speaking about the experience of meeting him, Costa said: “Mark’s fight was a surprise… I was impressed though. “He seemed like a normal guy. Looked me in the eye, gave me a firm handshake and an even bigger surprise was that he fights well.” So, we know that Zuckerberg spends a lot of time on this, he has respect for the form and has a bit of technique to back it up. On the other hand, Musk has admitted that he does not exercise. He wrote on Twitter recently: “I almost never work out, except for picking up my kids and throwing them in the air.” So, even if they had a few months to train, Zuckerberg has the edge on him there. There is however the issue of size. Musk is comfortably six foot and weighs around two and half stone more than Zuckerberg – and this is something Musk has already talked about potentially exploiting with a specialist move. “I have a move called ‘The Walrus’, which I used on a friend of mine who’s very agile,” he told the Full Send podcast, going into his hypothetical fight plans. “But I was like, let me explain to you why there are weight classes in MMA. I’m going to use a move called ‘The Walrus’, where I just lie on you and you can’t get away. Zuckerberg is also 12 years Musk's junior, but there is a potential flaw in his fighting style which Musk could look to exploit: if Musk does end up training and has been offered to be coached by former kickboxer Andrew Tate, he could look to exploit Zuckerberg’s overly attacking style Discussing the Meta CEO’s fighting style, referee Lucas Costa also added: “He goes forward a lot. He attacks more. With very little defence.” Perhaps this would give Musk a game plan – but, honestly, there’s something about Zuckerberg’s cold, vacant stare that would put us off ever wanting to fight him in a ring. He’s got this fight behind the eyes, for sure – if the fight ever ends up happening, our money’s on him. Have your say in our news democracy.
