The Fox & Friends Weekend co-hosts discuss President Donald Trumps remarks on reaching a fair tariff deal with China as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent begins high-level negotiations in Switzerland.

A Soviet-era spacecraft plunged to Earth on Saturday, more than a half-century after its failed launch to Venus.The European Union Space Surveillance and Tracking confirmed its uncontrolled reentry, based on analysis and no-shows of the spacecraft on subsequent orbits. The European Space Agencys space debris office also indicated that the spacecraft had reentered after it failed to appear over a German radar station.It was not immediately known where the spacecraft came in or how much, if any, of the half-ton spacecraft survived the fiery descent from orbit. Experts said ahead of time that some if not all of it might come crashing down, given it was built to withstand a landing on Venus, the solar systems hottest planet.SPACE FORCE'S MYSTERIOUS X-37B PLANE RETURNS TO EARTH AFTER 434 DAYS IN ORBITThe chances of anyone getting clobbered by spacecraft debris were exceedingly low, scientists said.Launched in 1972 by the Soviet Union, the spacecraft known as Kosmos 482 was part of a series of missions bound for Venus. But this one never made it out of orbit around Earth, stranded there by a rocket malfunction.Much of the spacecraft came tumbling back to Earth within a decade of the failed launch. No longer able to resist gravitys tug as its orbit dwindled, the spherical lander an estimated 3 feet (1 meter) across was the last part of the spacecraft to come down. The lander was encased in titanium, according to experts, and weighed more than 1,000 pounds (495 kilograms).After following the spacecrafts downward spiral, scientists, military experts and others could not pinpoint in advance precisely when or where the spacecraft might come down.MASSIVE EUROPEAN POWER OUTAGE BLAMED ON SOLAR PLANT BREAKDOWNSSolar activity added to the uncertainty as well as the spacecrafts deteriorating condition after so long in space.As of Saturday morning, the U.S. Space Command had yet to confirm the spacecraft's demise as it collected and analyzed data from orbit.The U.S. Space Command routinely monitors dozens of reentries each month. What set Kosmos 482 apart and earned it extra attention from government and private space trackers was that it was more likely to survive reentry, according to officials.It was also coming in uncontrolled, without any intervention by flight controllers who normally target the Pacific and other vast expanses of water for old satellites and other space debris.

Rafael Devers' position saga continues, and now, it appears the front office is getting involved.Devers, who has played third base his entire career with the Boston Red Sox, found himself in a peculiar spot when the team signed Alex Bregman, also a lifelong third baseman (and a much better defensive one), shortly before the season started.Devers is a three-time All-Star, and despite plenty of turnover in Boston (most notably, trading Mookie Betts in 2020), Devers was the one star the team opted to keep. They signed him to an 11-year deal worth $313.5 million ahead of the 2023 season, which would have been a contract year.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMBut despite both sides showing loyalty to one another in those discussions, there is now some intense drama brewing.The plan after Bregman signed appeared to be to move Devers to second, but Devers actually has only DH'd this year. Bregman, meanwhile, has manned the hot corner, and the emergence of rookie Kristian Campbell at second has left Devers without a position in the field.Well, first baseman Triston Casas is out for the season with a knee injury, and the Sox approached Devers with the idea of playing first base, but he shut it down quite quickly.Now, it's being reported that Sox owner John Henry, general manager Craig Breslow and team president Sam Kennedy all flew to Kansas City, where the Sox are playing this weekend, to meet with the four-time All-Star.Manager Alex Cora spoke privately with Devers on Friday, and it's been reported that Devers' attitude about the positions has not been well-received in the clubhouse.CUBS AND WHITE SOX BATTLE OVER POPE LEO XIV'S FANDOM; SOUTHSIDERS MAY HAVE UPPER HANDDuring his public rebuttal of the potential position change, Devers cited the Red Sox' previous instructions related to him using his glove."I know Im a ballplayer, but at the same time, they cant expect me to play every single position out there," Devers said via a translator, per the Boston Globe. "In spring training, they talked to me and basically told me to put away my glove, that I wasn't going to play any other position but DH.""So right now, I just feel like its not an appropriate decision by them to ask me to play another position," he added.Devers then questioned whether Breslow, the pitcher-turned team executive, had some level of discontent towards him."Im not certain what [issue] he has with me," Devers told reporters. "He played ball, and I would like to think that he knows that changing positions like that isnt easy."Devers is currently hitting .253, his lowest since a .240 campaign in 2018, his second year in the big leagues. He leads the American League in both strikeouts and walks.He has not played another position since playing one inning at shortstop in 2023, out of desperation. In total, he has played three career innings at each middle infield position, and well over 8,000 at third.Fox News' Chantz Martin contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

There was a scary moment in a National Women's Soccer League game on Friday night after a player was hospitalized after an on-field incident.Angel City defender Savy King suffered a "medical event" during the team's game against the Utah Royals.King went down in the 74th minute and was attended to for some 10 minutes before she was taken from the field on a cart, leaving other players visibly shaken.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMReports say it appeared that CPR was administered, and an AED was used. The game was stopped for several minutes to treat King.Eventually, she was stretchered off the field, and after the game, both teams and their staff joined together in prayer.The club gave good news after the game.US SOCCER LEGEND CLINT DEMPSEY PREVIEWS TEAM'S WORLD CUP CHANCES, DISCUSSES 'RESPONSIBILITY' TO GROW THE GAME"Savy was transported by EMS to the hospital following a medical event on the field. She is responsive and undergoing further evaluation. We thank everyone for their concern and support," Angel City said in a statement.Alex Loera, of the Royals, was asked to lead both teams in prayer, and "of course I'm going to do that."Alex Loera: "Obviously, Savy King is one of my really good friends. . . . Those moments are always so scary - we're all sending our thoughts and prayers to Savy King's family," Loera said.Utah head coach Jimmy Coenraets admitted he was not pleased with continuing the game, which resulted in a 2-0 win for L.A."I'm not sure we should have continued the game . . . it was a really tough moment," the coach said, adding that a lot of people were "scared."King, 20, was the second overall pick in the 2024 NWSL draft by expansion Bay FC and played 18 games for the club. She was traded to Angel City in February and has started in all eight games for the team this season.The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

As the first -ever Pope to hail from the U.S., Robert Prevost's American sports ties quickly became a point of global conversation after he was appointed Pope Leo XIV.As a Chicago native, Prevost's White Sox fandom came to light this week, and it turns out he's not just a casual fan either. Footage of Prevost attending Game 1 of the 2005 World Series surfaced on social media Friday.By pure chance, Prevost was shown on the MLB on FOX broadcast for that game at U.S. Cellular Field on Oct. 22, 2005, and the cameras caught him during the top of the ninth inning as the White Sox were clinching a 5-3 win over the Houston Astros. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe White Sox went on to win the series in a four-game sweep, for their only championship since 1917.Prevost was first revealed as a White Sox fan when his brother, John Prevost, mentioned it in an interview with WGN-TV."He was always a Sox fan," John said.But the Pope's rooting interest apparently might not end with baseball.Reverand Robert P. Hagan, a friend of Prevost's and a chaplain at the Pope's alma mater, Villanova University, told The Athletic about Prevost's link to the New York Knicks and their star lineup of former Villanova players.CHET LEMON, WORLD SERIES CHAMPION WITH TIGERS, DIES AT 70"Weve had a lot of fun watching the Knicks, because Jalen (Brunson) and Josh (Hart) and Donte (DiVincenzo) was there, and now Mikal (Bridges) is there," Hagan said. "I think that Pope Leo will still keep an eye on the Nova Knicks. I think hell still keep an eye on the Wildcats, and I think hell be very proud of not just who they are but the way that they play with a certain spirit and unselfishness."Leo XIV was first brought to the Vatican by Pope Francis to serve as prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops inJanuary 2023, which is one of the most important positions in the Catholic Church, as it vets bishop nominations issued globally.Francis then elevated him to the position of Cardinal in September 2023.Leo was reported to be closely aligned to Francis' teachings as leader of the Catholic Church, particularly when it came to his positions regarding theenvironment, outreach to the poor and migrants, and opening the Catholic Church to embrace more followers.In 2015, Leo obtained Peruvian citizenship. He remained in Peru until he was moved to the Vatican in 2023.During his final years in Peru, Leo also served as vice president of the permanent council of the Peruvian Bishops Conference from 2018 to 2023, which likely helped him secure his role as prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops under Francis.Fox News' Caitlin McFall and the Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

President Donald Trump and his administration inked a major trade deal with the U.K. Thursday, and closed the week gearing up for trade talks with China over the weekend.Details of the specific trade plan with the U.K. are sparse, but the deal keeps the existing 10% tariffs in place against U.K. goods while removing some import taxes on items like steel and cars."With this deal, the U.K. joins the United States in affirming that reciprocity and fairness is an essential and vital principle of international trade," Trump said Thursday. "The deal includes billions of dollars of increased market access for American exports, especially in agriculture, dramatically increasing access for American beef, ethanol and virtually all of the products produced by our great farmers."TRUMP SIGNALS CHINA VERY MUCH INTERESTED IN SECURING TRADE DEAL AHEAD OF SWITZERLAND NEGOTIATIONSThe deal is the first historic trade negotiation signed following Liberation Day, when Trump announced widespread tariffs for multiple countries April 2 at a range of rates.The administration later adjusted its initial proposal and announced April 9 it would immediately impose a 145% tariff on Chinese goods, while reducing reciprocal tariffs on other countries for 90 days to a baseline of 10%. China responded by raising tariffs on U.S. goods to 125%.Trump also shed some insight into trade negotiations with China, given that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is scheduled to kick off trade negotiations with China in Switzerland Saturday."Scott's going to be going to Switzerland, meeting with China," Trump told reporters Thursday at the White House. "And you know, they very much want to make a deal. We can all play games. Who made the first call, who didn't make them? It doesn't matter. Only matters what happens in that room. But I will tell you that China very much wants to make a deal. We'll see how that works out."Heres what also happened this week:Trump also doubled down on his interest in expanding the U.S. during a Tuesday visit with Canadas prime minister, Mark Carney.Trump regularly has said he wants Canada to become a U.S. state, and has discussed acquiring Greenland and the Panama Canal for security purposes. However, the matter of Canada isnt open to negotiation, Carney said."Having met with the owners of Canada over the course of the campaign the last several months, it's not for sale," Carney said at the White House Tuesday. "Won't be for sale ever, but the opportunity is in the partnership and what we can build together. We have done that in the past, and part of that, as the president just said, is with respect to our security, and my government is committed for a step change in our investment in Canadian security and our partnership."CARNEY SAYS CANADA IS NOT FOR SALE, TRUMP REPLIES NEVER SAY NEVERWhile Trump acknowledged that Canada was stepping up its investment in military security, he said, "Never say never" in response to Canada becoming another state."Ive had many, many things that were not doable, and they ended up being doable," Trump said.TRUMP PULLS HIS NOMINATION FOR DC US ATTORNEY, SAYS HE'LL REVEAL NEW PICK SOONTrump also met with Russian-American ballet dancer, Ksenia Karelina, at the White House Monday. Karelina faced a sentence of 12 years in a Russian penal colony for treason in 2024, but the Trump administration negotiated her return to the U.S. during a U.S.-Russian prisoner swap in April.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"Mr. Trump, I'm so, so grateful for you to bring me home and for (the) American government. And I never felt more blessed to be American, and I'm so, so happy to get home," Karelina said in a video posted by Trump deputy assistant Sebastian Gorka on April 11 upon her return to the U.S.Karelina, a resident of Los Angeles who was born in Russia, was arrested in 2024 during a trip to visit family in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

To the mothers that hold the nation together,Every year on Mothers Day, we celebrate you with flowers, cards and brunch. But today, I want to offer something more meaningful than a gift or a meal: I want to remind you that America needs you now more than ever.In a moment when our culture feels fractured, our families are under pressure and our future is uncertain, its mothers who hold the line. Its mothers who hold homes and hold hearts together. And its mothers who quietly, faithfully lead with the kind of strength this nation cannot survive without.While the headlines celebrate celebrity CEOs or political powerhouses, I believe the most profound leadership in America is happening quietly, around kitchen tables, in carpool lines and beside hospital beds. Its happening through you.MOTHERHOOD DOES NOT FIT SO WELL IN A CULTURE THAT VALUES SELF-CARE OVER SERVICE. AND THAT'S A PROBLEMThink about it: every day, you make a thousand small but powerful decisions for your family. Every lunch packed, every schedule coordinated, every hard conversation navigated. You manage conflicts, negotiate compromises, anticipate needs, and carry the weight of other peoples futures in your hands. And you do it not for applause, not for titles, but out of love.Thats not weakness. Thats strength under control. Thats servant leadership in action.Ive seen it firsthand in my own home. My wife doesnt lead with a spotlight; she leads with steadfastness. She doesnt chase recognition; she shoulders responsibility. And through her daily sacrifices, both seen and unseen, our family flourishes.THE WORLDS TOUGHEST, YET MOST REWARDING JOB: MOMS ARE HEROESHer leadership has shaped character, cultivated faith and built resilience in our children far more effectively than any platform or podium ever could.You may not always feel it, but the influence you carry is immeasurable. In a world obsessed with platform and prestige, your leadership reminds us of something better: real leadership isnt measured by followers or influence, its measured by the flourishing of those entrusted to your care.Jesus said it plainly: "Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant" (Matthew 20:26).CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONAnd youre living that kind of greatness every day. Through humility, perseverance and sacrificial love, you are building lives, shaping hearts and raising up the next generation.

Thank you for leading with grit, grace and selfless love. Thank you for persevering in the unseen moments. Thank you for reminding us that the leadership that bends low to lift others up is the leadership that leaves the deepest mark on the world.This Mothers Day, know that your leadership matters.

Taylor Swift has been subpoenaed as a witness in Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's heated legal battle stemming from the production of their film "It Ends With Us."Shortly after the news was made public, a spokesperson for Swift denied that the pop star had any connection to the 2024 film aside from the licensing of her song "My Tears Ricochet," which was featured in the movie's trailer and used in one scene."Taylor Swift never set foot on the set of this movie, she was not involved in any casting or creative decisions, she did not score the film, she never saw an edit or made any notes on the film, she did not even see It Ends With Us until weeks after its public release, and was traveling around the globe during 2023 and 2024 headlining the biggest tour in history," Swift's representative told Fox News Digital.JUSTIN BALDONI SUES BLAKE LIVELY, RYAN REYNOLDS FOR $400M AFTER ACTRESS ACCUSED HIM OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT"The connection Taylor had to this film was permitting the use of one song, My Tears Ricochet,'" the spokesperson added. "Given that her involvement was licensing a song for the film, which 19 other artists also did, this document subpoena is designed to use Taylor Swifts name to draw public interest by creating tabloid clickbait instead of focusing on the facts of the case."Representatives for Baldoni and Lively did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.Lively and Baldoni starred together in the romance drama "It Ends with Us," which was based on Colleen Hoover's 2016 book and premiered in August 2024. After a press tour rife with rumors of behind-the-scenes issues between the two, Baldoni and Lively filed lawsuits against each other.In January, Baldoni accused Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, of civil extortion, defamation and more in a $400 million lawsuit which happened to mention Swift.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSThe "Jane the Virgin" star's lawsuit followed Lively's own December lawsuit, in which she accused the actor of sexual harassment while filming "It Ends With Us." However, Baldoni insisted that Lively had "falsely" accused him in an attempt to repair her reputation following the fallout around the movie's press tour after she allegedly took control of the film.In an attempt to prove his claims that Lively had taken control of the movie's production, Baldoni's legal team suggested that the actress had used her friendship with the globally famous Swift to threaten him. While working on the film, Lively insisted on rewriting the infamous rooftop scene. Baldoni had been hesitant about the idea, but he told the actress he would "take a look at what she put together," according to the complaint.Afterward, Lively invited Baldoni over to her New York City home, where the actor said he had felt that Swift and Reynolds had pressured him into using the rewritten scene. "Later, Baldoni felt obliged to text Lively to say that he had liked her pages and hadnt needed Reynolds and her megacelebrity friend to pressure him," the complaint said.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER" I really love what you did. It really does help a lot. Makes it so much more fun and interesting. (And I would have felt that way without Ryan and Taylor [emoji] You really are a talent across the board. Really excited nd [sic] grateful to do this together," Baldoni's text read, according to the complaint.Lively shared a lengthy response, in which she referred to Swift and Reynolds as "dragons" who protect her."Both Ryan and [redacted] have established themselves as absolute titans as writers and storytellers outside of their primary gig just singing or just acting or [redacted] just directing. I'm so lucky to have them as creative barometers," Lively's text, included in the complaint, read. "But also to have them as people who prop me up and make sure I'm seen for all I can, and do offer. Because they know firsthand all I contribute. They also know I'm not always as good at making sure I'm seen and utilized for fear of threatening egos, or fear of affecting the ease of the process. They don't give a s--- about that. And because of that, everyone listens to them with immense respect and enthusiasm. So I guess I have to stop worrying about people liking me."Baldoni believed that "the message could not have been clearer," according to the lawsuit. "Baldoni was not just dealing with Lively. He was also facing Livelys dragons, two of the most influential and wealthy celebrities in the world, who were not afraid to make things very difficult for him."Both sides have given no indication that they intend to settle out of court. The legal conflict is currently set to head to trial before a New York court in March 2026.Fox News Digital's Lauryn Overhultz contributed to this report.
