Emmanuel Macron, Britney Spears, Apple, Justin Theroux, David Guetta, Hugh Jackman: HOT LINKS

FRANCE. Emmanuel Macron invites Donald Trump to France for Bastille Day. “It was not immediately clear whether Mr. Trump would accept the invitation, which was also extended to his wife, Melania, according to a statement from the Élysée Palace. But the traditional military parade in Paris on this Bastille Day, July 14, will also commemorate the 100th anniversary of America’s entry into World War I to fight alongside the French, British and other Allies.”

BRITNEY SPEARS. Denies that she lip syncs. “It really pisses me off because I am busting my ass out there and singing at the same time and nobody ever really gives me credit for it.”

HEALTHCARE. Trump dispatches Mike Pence to fix it.

PAUL MANAFORT. The former Trump campaign chair is now registered as a foreign agent: “Trump forced Manafort to step down from his campaign last year after The Associated Press reported that Manafort and another Trump campaign official, Rick Gates, had secretly helped the Ukrainian Party of Regions steer money to two Washington lobbying firms through a nonprofit. Neither Manafort nor the lobbying firms registered with the Justice Department as foreign agents working on behalf of the party at the time.”

NATIONAL HIV TESTING DAY. Trump fails to mention LGBTQ people or people of color in official statement:

ARIZONA. Supreme Court to rule on same-sex parental rights: “Arizona’s highest court on Tuesday struggled how to balance U.S. Supreme Court rulings requiring equal treatment for married gay couples with a state law that doesn’t recognize the parental rights of a lesbian woman who is divorcing her spouse. A lower court decided in October that that Suzan McLaughlin is entitled to the same parental rights as if she were a man to the couple’s now 7-year-old son. He was born through artificial insemination.”
