Iran's Bold Move: The Unexpected Twist in Strait of Hormuz Negotiations New

Iran's Bold Move: The Unexpected Twist in Strait of Hormuz Negotiations

Before the ink even dries on the United States-Iran memorandum of understanding, a dispute is emerging that could unravel negotiations to restore peace in the Strait of Hormuz.Shipping has been at a near-standstill in the strait, a conduit for one-quarter of the world's seaborne oil, since the U.S. and Israel launched their war against the Islamic Republic on February 28. The threat of Iranian attacks sent insurance costs soaring and prompted many operators to avoid the route altogether, while vessels calling at Iranian ports faced additional complications from the U.S.-led naval blockade.The 14-point agreement, which U.S. President Donald Trump signed on Wednesday in Versailles during his visit to France for a G7 summit, commits the two countries to negotiating a more comprehensive deal within the next 60 days. When announcing the MOU on Monday, Trump wrote on Truth Social he was "authoriz[ing] the toll free opening of the waterway."Iran is to immediately begin the process of reopening the strait for the safe passage of commercial vessels, including demining operations and the removal of "technical and military obstacles, according to the MOU. Iran also must "make arrangements using its best efforts for the safe passage of commercial vessels with no charge for 60 days only from the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman and vice versa."...Toll-Free?While Washington and Tehran appear to agree on toll-free transit during the initial 60-day period, they differ on whether Iran will be permitted to continue collecting fees after that two-month window expires.Since mid-March, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has been running a "tollbooth" under which foreign-flagged vessels undergo a strict vetting process with the IRGC before being allowed to transit through Iranian waters after paying a fee.Trump stressed the strait will be "permanently toll-free." Vice President JD Vance told CNBC in a Monday interview that it would remain "toll-free for the long term."Iran has insisted it intends to collect maritime service fees, not tolls.The charges would offset the cost of services provided, including navigational assistance, vessel insurance, and environmental protection measures jointly administered by Iran and Oman, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei told the semi-official Tasnim news agency late last month.Permanent Deal in JeopardyIran’s insistence on collecting services fees in the waterway likely would undermine any chance of a permanent peace deal with the U.S., according to Charlie Brown, a senior adviser at the nonprofit United Against Nuclear Iran.Tehran also may be using the issue of tolls as a bargaining chip to extract concessions from the U.S. in the upcoming talks, Brown told Newsweek.“The Iranians consider themselves experts at dragging out negotiations and continuously moving the goal posts, and seeking concessions,” Brown said.Newsweek reached out to the White House and the Iranian Foreign Ministry via email for comment.The fees could also further strain relations with at least five of the six Gulf Cooperation Council states that were targeted by Iranian retaliatory missile and drone strikes on U.S. military, economic and energy infrastructure linked to their hosting of American forces."The Omanis may actually benefit by joining Iran in collecting a toll. The Saudis and Emiratis have options to go around the strait, but Kuwaitis, Qataris, and Bahrainis do not," Steven Cook, a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, wrote in an analysis on Wednesday."They will be forced to comply with Iranian demands or experience economic dislocation. The conflict will likely lead to additional Gulf hedging in the form of non-aggression pacts with Iran."Approximately 550 merchant ships—including 160 tankers, 200 bulk carriers, and 60 containerships—remained in the Persian Gulf Thursday, according to Lloyd's List.

City Hall's Shocking Jersey Mix-Up Sparks Fury Among Knicks Fans New

City Hall's Shocking Jersey Mix-Up Sparks Fury Among Knicks Fans

Knicks fans were left outraged on Thursday as City Hall made a bizarre mistake ahead of the team’s championship parade.Each member of the New York roster had their jersey hung from City Hall — including Dillon Jones, who made just seven appearances for the team this season after signing on a two-way deal in January.But as The Post’s Jared Schwartz captured, Jones’ uniform number was displayed as No. 33, the retired number of the great Patrick Ewing.Jones wore No. 1 in his appearances for the Knicks, and No. 2 for the G League Westchester Knicks, but the confusion appears to come from the fact that he’s listed as No. 33 on the Knicks’ roster.Never really saw him in a jersey so just realized this — Dillon Jones is listed on the Knicks roster with Patrick Ewing’s retired No. 33 pic.twitter.com/OlXBPoDVxH— Jared Schwartz (@jschwartz115) June 18, 2026Patrick Ewing during a Knicks-Lakers game in 2000.

Supreme Court's Bold Move: What This 9-0 Ruling Means for Gun Rights and Marijuana Users New

Supreme Court's Bold Move: What This 9-0 Ruling Means for Gun Rights and Marijuana Users

The Supreme Court on Thursday narrowed the government’s ability to prosecute people who use marijuana for possessing firearms, siding unanimously with a Texas man in a decision that marks the latest expansion of Second Amendment protections.The decision in U.S. v. Hemani is a setback for the Trump administration, which defended the restriction even as it has sought to roll back other gun limits. The same law was used in the high-profile case against Hunter Biden, who was convicted of illegally purchasing a firearm while addicted to drugs before being pardoned.The ruling adds to a growing body of firearm decisions reshaping U.S. gun law. Since 2022, the court has struck down a federal ban on bump stocks while upholding other measures, including restrictions tied to domestic violence and ghost gun kits. Newsweek has reached out to the Department of Justice via email on Thursday morning for comment.What is United States v. Hemani?In a 9-0 ruling, the justices held that applying a longstanding federal law to Ali Danial Hemani—based solely on his admitted marijuana use—violated the Constitution. The law, part of the 1968 Gun Control Act, makes it a crime for anyone who is an “unlawful user” of a controlled substance to own a gun. But the court found that using it to prosecute a person who was not accused of being intoxicated or dangerous at the time went too far....Writing for the court, conservative Justice Neil Gorsuch said the government failed to show that disarming a regular marijuana user aligns with the nation’s historical traditions of firearm regulation—the test the court adopted in a 2022 landmark ruling expanding gun rights. The opinion does not strike down the statute outright, but it raises the bar for future prosecutions, signaling that authorities may need to show a clearer link between drug use and dangerous behavior. “We do not address efforts to ban addicts, or those presently intoxicated, from possessing a firearm,” Gorsuch wrote. "Prosecutors could potentially still charge a marijuana user, if they had evidence the person was dangerous."The case reflects shifting attitudes toward cannabis. Marijuana is now legal in some form in a majority of states, though it remains illegal federally, creating tension in laws that treat all users as prohibited gun owners.“Whatever one thinks of these developments, the federal government has not just tolerated them; it helped fuel them,” Gorsuch continued. “All of which leaves it awkwardly positioned to suggest that the millions of Americans who now regularly use marijuana are categorically and unusually dangerous.”Unlikely Allies Unite Over Gun Rights for Marijuana UsersThe dispute also produced unusual political alliances. Civil liberties groups like the ACLU joined gun-rights advocates, including the National Rifle Association (NRA), in backing Hemani, while some gun-control organizations supported the federal government’s position.Cecillia Wang, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, said in a statement shared with Newsweek via email that the “unanimous 9-0 decision makes it clear” the government cannot treat marijuana use alone as grounds to strip people of their constitutional right to own a gun. She added the ruling sends “a strong message” that officials may not criminalize large groups based on broad assumptions about danger, emphasizing that such categorical restrictions risk being “unfounded” and discriminatory.Wang noted that with millions of Americans having used marijuana, the decision helps safeguard the rights of a wide swath of the public while curbing what she described as the government’s ability to impose arbitrary penalties based purely on drug use.Who is Ali Hemani?Hemani’s case began with a 2022 FBI search of his family home in Texas, part of a broader investigation that was not ultimately charged. During that search, agents found a handgun along with marijuana and other substances, and Hemani cooperated by identifying both the weapon and the drugs. The government did not accuse him of being intoxicated at the time or using the firearm in connection with any criminal activity; the case rested solely on his status as a regular marijuana user.Violations can carry significant penalties, even when no other criminal conduct is alleged, and Hemani’s indictment depended entirely on his admitted marijuana use rather than any evidence of dangerous behavior.Hemani, a dual citizen of the U.S. and Pakistan, challenged the charge in federal court, arguing that applying the law to him violated the Second Amendment. His legal team pointed to the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision setting a stricter standard for gun laws, requiring the government to show that modern restrictions are consistent with historical firearm regulations. Lower courts agreed with Hemani, finding that while historical laws sometimes restricted gun access for people who were actively intoxicated, they did not support disarming someone based solely on past or occasional drug use.The case reached the Supreme Court after the Justice Department appealed those rulings, seeking to preserve the federal statute’s broad application.

Joe Rogan's Fiery Defense of UFC White House Event Sparks Controversy New

Joe Rogan's Fiery Defense of UFC White House Event Sparks Controversy

Joe Rogan blasted critics of the UFC White House event during Wednesday’s episode of his podcast, defending the event as a nonpartisan and unprecedented patriotic event.President Donald Trump marked his 80th birthday in the run-up to America’s 250th anniversary with a celebration on the South Lawn, where 14 fighters from around the world competed inside a wire-mesh cage during the UFC Freedom 250 spectacle.The estimated 4,300 people in attendance, which included about 1,200 active-duty service members, greeted the president with loud cheers as the occasional “Happy Birthday” was shouted from the crowd. The $60 million event kicked off with the Marine Band’s performance of the national anthem, sung by country star Zac Brown, and was capped off with a flyover by the Navy’s Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds.Rogan spoke to author Chase Hughes on his podcast on Wednesday, recalling the incredible fights he saw the past weekend, where he claimed that in addition to the 4,300 official attendees, there were an additional 85,000 watching on massive screens just outside the event venue. Rogan defended the event as a nonpartisan and unprecedented patriotic event. Youtube/PowerfulJRE“It was insane. Just the magnitude of it was insane,” Rogan noted. He said that while he is a hyperbolic person by nature, “That was the wildest experience that I’ve ever had in my 20 whatever years of calling combat sports. There’s nothing even close. Nothing even close. It was the greatest night of fights of all time. And it was the only night in the history of the sport where every single fight ended by knockout. “He added further that he actually had to persuade some people to show up in the first place, noting, “I talked a bunch of people into going that didn’t want to. Like Shane Gillis was thinking about not going. I’m like, ‘Bro, you got to go. It’s going to be epic. It’s going to be a once ever thing. Not a once in a lifetime. Once in anybody’s lifetime. It’s never happened before. It’s probably never going to happen again.'”“Probably not,” Hughes agreed. Joe Rogan and UFC President and CEO Dana White pose for a photo in the Octagon following the UFC lightweight championship fight during the UFC Freedom 250 event on the South Lawn at the White House on June 14, 2026 in Washington, DC. Zuffa LLC“No,” Rogan said. “But that’s something you have to see and experience.”The host went on to lament that “so many people are trying to make it a partisan thing. Like they’re mad at people for being there. Like, ‘Oh, you support Trump.’ Like, it’s a f—ing fight at the White House. Doesn’t mean you endorse foreign policy. Like, shut the f— up. Just please. Just please stop.”“And again, it’s this thing, the ego thing where people are just — they just want so badly—and on both sides for sure,” Rogan continued. “You know, the right celebrates this as a win for masculinity and patriotism and all these different things. Like, okay, settle down. Everybody settle down. You should all be together.”

Collin Gosselin's Heartfelt Tribute Sparks Questions About Family Ties New

Collin Gosselin's Heartfelt Tribute Sparks Questions About Family Ties

Hours after teasing the upcoming release of his bombshell memoir in which he plans to expose alleged wrongdoing in his famous family, Collin Gosselin took to social media to shade his mom, Kate Gosselin.“I didn’t plan this at all, but coincidentally on the day of the official announcement of my book, it is Colleen’s birthday,” Collin wrote alongside a snapshot with Colleen Conrad — whom his father, Jon Gosselin, dated from 2014 to 2021 before tying the knot with Stephanie Lebo in November. “She is the strongest woman I know, who stepped in at the toughest part of my life and CHOSE to be a mother to me,” Collin, 22, gushed in the caption. “Happy birthday to my wonderful, hardworking, passionate, and I could go on… to my real mom ❤️ I love you so much.” In the comments thread, the former reality TV star wrote, “The love you feel for a mom you were given is incredible. But the love you feel for a mom that CHOSE you is something so powerful. I am so fortunate ❤️ @colleen.conrad122 I love you so much 🫶🏼” Collin Gosselin seemingly shaded his mother, Kate, in a tribute to his father’s ex Colleen Conrad (as seen above). Instagram/Collin GosselinColleen responded that Collin is her “real son,” as seen above. Instagram/Collin GosselinConrad responded in part, “I’ll always be here for you and you are my son. I love you!” A rep for Kate, 51, did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment on Wednesday. The post comes hours after the “Jon & Kate Plus 8” alum teased the release of his memoir, “In the Shadow of Eight,” due to hit shelves in October.“This is not a story for entertainment, it is a story to instill responsibility in everyone to advocate and speak up against abuse, injustice, and the exploitation of children,” he captioned a montage of photos from his childhood. “I not only poured my heart into this book for my younger self, but for ALL who have faced unfair and outright heinous acts as children. I am your voice. I stand with you. CG” The book’s publisher released a synopsis on Wednesday, promising that the memoir will share the “never-before-told story of how [Collin] escaped and found his way back from the dark.”The post comes hours after Collin revealed the upcoming release of his bombshell memoir about his family (as seen above). Grand Central PublishingHe has repeatedly accused his mother, Kate (seen above in a social media post), of alleged abuse.The publisher also described the book as a “reckoning with the dark side of fame: the systems, the entourage, and the institutions that allowed one boy to be erased.” The book’s cover features a throwback image of Kate holding her hand over Collin’s mouth. Kate and ex-husband Jon, 49, also share 22-year-old sextuplets Aaden, Joel, Alexis, Hannah and Leah, and twins Cara and Madelyn, 25. The famous family rose to fame on the TLC reality show, which morphed into “Kate Plus 8” following the former couple’s divorce in 2009. Jon was ultimately granted sole custody of Collin, while Hannah eventually moved in with them, as well.Over the years, Collin has slammed Kate with allegations of “child abuse and child exploitation” — including allegedly being zip-tied and locked in a basement before being institutionalized in 2016 — with Kate consistently denying the claims and defending her decision to place him into a behavioral health facility. Madelyn publicly backed up her mother, accusing Collin of “physical violence,” which Jon and Collin have denied. The family rose to fame on “Jon & Kate Plus 8”. They’re seen above in a throwback photo. APFollowing the former couple’s 2009 divorce, Collin and Hannah eventually went to live with Jon. They’re seen above in a social media upload. jongosselin1/InstagramIn an August 2025 social media post, Collin seemingly accused his mother of being instrumental in his estrangement from many of his siblings, with Kate cryptically responding to the drama in a social media comment, “he knows why…” Amid the family feud, Page Six revealed in September that Kate is dating her former bodyguard, Steve Neild, and that the pair “have wedding plans.” Kate previously denied an affair with Neild in 2009, telling People at the time of the media coverage, “They’re going to keep going, and they’ll make up stuff to connect the dots.” Collin and Jon swiftly took to social media to blast Kate following the revelation. “Everyone says my dad and I are hung up on my mom. We are not,” Collin wrote via Instagram at the time. “We have suffered the damage of a narcissist and cried together.”Collin told Us Weekly on Tuesday that in his memoir, he’s “sharing what was really happening behind the scenes,” and that the memoir is “about truth, survival, resilience and finding my voice after years of being silenced.”

Jelly Roll's Hospital Scare: The Shocking Event Before His Divorce Drama New

Jelly Roll's Hospital Scare: The Shocking Event Before His Divorce Drama

Jelly Roll revealed he was hospitalized one week before his divorce from estranged wife Bunnie Xo came to light. “I went to the hospital last night in Charlotte, North Carolina … Shout out to that whole hospital,” Jelly Roll, 41, announced via TikTok on Wednesday, June 10. “They literally got me on my feet for the show.” The “Son of a Sinner” singer (real name Jason Bradley DeFord) is in the middle of the Big Ass Stadium Tour, where he is supporting headliner Post Malone. Jelly Roll explained to TikTok followers that he barely got through his show at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte on Tuesday, June 9, due to a sinus infection. The musician sought treatment at a local hospital after performing, causing him to miss out on his usual cameo during Post Malone’s (real name Austin Richard Post) main seat. “I’m telling you, I was puffy-faced. It was bad, dude. The sinus infection was bad,” he recalled, before joking: “Now, I’m all jacked up because they gave me a bunch of steroids!” The rapper added, “It was the first night since I’ve been touring with Post that I wasn’t able to come out and sing ‘Losers’ with him because I just barely got through my show.” The Grammy Award winner revealed that he received a bouquet with a “get well soon” card from Post Malone, 30, the day after his hospital stint. “I love you, Post,” Jelly Roll beamed. “When I say on stage every night that Post Malone is the nicest human being in the world, I’m not making that up. I won’t say he’s not a rock star. He’s the most ‘rock star’ dude I’ve ever known who’s the most normal dude in the world.” Us Weekly has reached out to Jelly Roll’s spokesperson for comment. The health scare occurred one week before Us confirmed that Jelly Roll filed for divorce from Bunnie Xo (real name Alisa DeFord) in Tennessee on May 18. The former couple tied the knot in August 2016 and share no children. (Jelly Roll is a father of two — he shares daughter Bailee Ann, 18, with ex-girlfriend Felicia Beckwith and son Noah Buddy, 9, with ex Melisa Ann Cowell.) Divorce documents filed by Jelly Roll cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce, specifying that the “parties are unable to live together successfully as Husband and Wife” any longer. Documents reviewed by Us confirmed that Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo were seeking “an equitable division of the parties’ assets and apportion[ing] responsibility for payment of the parties’ debts.” Jelly Roll has been very active on social media since filing for divorce, including removing a reference to Bunnie from his Instagram bio. On Monday, June 15, he offered an update on his 275 lb weight loss journey, sharing that he’d recently started using a protein powder that was effective as a “sweet treat.” Meanwhile, Bunnie Xo posed in lingerie via her Instagram Storm on Monday, along with hinting that she was “getting her sparkle back.” The podcaster also shared a video where she lip-synced to Nickelback’s hit “How You Remind Me,” which is thought to be inspired by a toxic relationship.

Page Six has reached out to reps for Carpenter. A rep for Applegate was not immediately available for comment on Wednesday evening.
