Luke Combs’s “Forever After All” has hit No. 1 on the Billboard Country Airplay Chart. Forever After All is Luke’s 11th consecutive number-1 song, and the 6th track off of his deluxe album What You See Ain’t Always What You Get to reach No. 1.

Said Luke: “It’s pretty crazy having this song go number-1, being the sixth number-1 off this album. It’s incredible, and it’s all thanks to the fans. We have a really great team – from management, to label, to band and crew, and we’ve been lucky that country radio has embraced us, which means the world to me. I’m forever grateful to everybody that’s helped get my songs out there. I just wanna say thanks to everybody, and I never take it for granted.”

The video for Forever After All features footage from Luke and wife Nicole’s wedding. You can take a look at the link- here.

Vaughn had previously teased the sequel back in November 2020, saying to Entertainment Tonight: “Owen and I and the director of Crashers have been talking for the first time seriously [about] a sequel to that movie. So there has been an idea that is pretty good. So we are talking about that in the early stages.” Vince said that the film was a “fun movie to make,” adding, “It’s always fun to make people laugh and go to work with people that are funny.”

Former President Trump ends his blog after less than a month

Post date June 3, 2021

Former President Donald Trump is shutting down his blog after less than a month. “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump” went live May 4, featuring statements Trump has made since March. The blog was meant to fill the ex-president’s communication gap after he was banned by social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter in January. Last month, the Facebook Oversight Board ruled that Trump would remain banned from the platform, but Facebook did not decide whether the ban will be permanent or set a time for reinstatement.

The blog site “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump” redirects now to a different site that asked visitors to sign up for Trump updates. According to Trump adviser Jason Miller “It was just auxiliary to the broader efforts we have [been] and are working on.”

Trump is expected to return to the campaign trail on behalf of Republicans running for seats in the House and Senate in 2022. Trump himself has not announced whether he will run again for another term in office.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s opponents reach coalition deal, paving the way for his exit

Post date June 3, 2021

On Wednesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s opponents announced they have reached a deal to form a new governing coalition, paving the way for the ouster of the longtime Israeli leader.

The announcement by opposition leader Yair Lapid and his main coalition partner, Naftali Bennett, came shortly before a midnight deadline. Under the agreement, Lapid and Bennett will split the job of prime minister in a rotation. Bennett will serve the first two years, while Lapid is to serve the final two years.

The agreement still needs to be approved by the Knesset, or parliament, in a vote early next week. If it goes through, Lapid and a diverse array of partners will end the 12-year rule of Netanyahu. Netanyahu, who is fighting corruption charges, is expected to do everything possible in the coming days to prevent the new coalition from taking power. If he fails, he will be pushed into the opposition.
