Chevalier

French football fans are focused on Bixente Lizarazu alongside reports that Zinédine Zidane, now leading the France national team, has issued instructions to develop new full-backs. Coverage highlights players launched by Zidane with Les Bleus, including Jacquet, Da Cunha and Diouf, while goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier's teammate Diallo says Zidane still has 'some surprises' in store.

Lawmakers are reportedly drawing up a plan to block Chevalier from being seated in Congress after an incident involving the US flag. According to the report, the snub has angered members who want to prevent the seating from going ahead. It is not yet clear who Chevalier is, what exactly happened with the flag, or whether the effort has formal support in either chamber.

Representative Tim Burchett, a Tennessee Republican, says he will try to prevent Darializa Avila Chevalier, a Democratic nominee for a New York congressional seat, from taking office if she wins the November 3 election. The move stems from her saying she once used the American flag as a napkin. Critics view the threat as political theater targeting a self-described socialist, while the New York Post reports the story is drawing attention to contested boundaries over congressional seating power.
