Hello Need help with week sorting

Hello, I have created below column and when I am adding it to slicer it is not giving me correct sorting order. how can I fix it?

WeekEnding =
VAR myWeekNum = WEEKNUM([Date])
VAR myYear = YEAR([Date])
VAR myEndDate = CALCULATE(MAX([Date]),FILTER(ALL(DateSlicer),YEAR([Date])=myYear && DateSlicer[WeekNum]=myWeekNum && DateSlicer[WeekDay]=6))
VAR myEndDate1 = IF(NOT(ISBLANK(myEndDate)),myEndDate,CALCULATE(MAX([Date]),FILTER(ALL(DateSlicer),YEAR([Date])=myYear+1 && DateSlicer[WeekNum]=1 && DateSlicer[WeekDay]=6)))
VAR myEndDate2 = IF(NOT(ISBLANK(myEndDate1)),myEndDate1,MAX([Date]))
RETURN " Friday " & myEndDate2

To sort weeks create a week id

 

Weekid =

VAR  _y = Year(min('table'[Date]))

RETURN

WEEKNUM('table'[Date],2) + (YEAR('table'[Date]) - _min) *53
