NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! We can now openly admit what has been unfolding before our eyes for a year: that Kristi Noem was an utter, complete, total catastrophe, her tenure in charge of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) little more than a self-promoting crusade.She was unqualified for the job from day one, and largely responsible for the awful excesses of ICE and the frustrating failures of FEMA. President Donald Trump’s decision to fire her, which took way too long, liberates many Republicans to acknowledge what many in the media, including me, along with Democrats and outside critics, have been saying all along: Noem was a slow-motion train wreck. The former South Dakota governor had no experience in national security issues, and that became painfully evident.This is a woman so determined to project the image of a tough cowgirl that when she wrote a memoir, she boasted about having shot her dog because she hated the pet. Talk about a self-inflicted wound. This is a woman who trashed two American citizens tragically killed by ICE by calling them domestic terrorists, and in one case an agitator. And refused to take it back. The proper response was simple: This is awful,…

The Los Angeles Rams not only traded for Trent McDuffie – they just made him the highest-paid cornerback in the NFL. When the Rams struck a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs last week, they addressed a key need this offseason.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The Kentucky Wildcats basketball team may still make the NCAA Tournament, but Dick Vitale thinks this iconic program should be much better than their 19-12 record this season considering their whopping $22 million roster. The legendary ESPN college basketball analyst didn’t hold back his feelings about the Wildcats as they played Florida during Saturday’s prime SEC matchup. After the Gators hit some free throws to extend their first-half lead to 26-19, Vitale started to lay into the Wildcats. “I’m going to say this right here, I’ve done several Kentucky games, win or lose, $22 million this team [which has been reported] in terms of the NIL for their players,” he said, per Awful Announcing. “I think in $22 million, they could have put together a better roster than they did. I really do.”The Wildcats ended up losing by a score of 84-77, and Vitale continued about Kentucky near the end of their 12th loss of the season. “I’ll tell you one thing, you don’t want to walk out of here thinking you got a moral victory,” Vitale said, referencing a hard-fought game against the No. 5-ranked Florida team. “Moral victories don’t count at this…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! During his father’s memorial service on Saturday, Jesse Jackson Jr. offered a sharp rebuke of the tributes given by former Democratic presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Joe Biden, noting that the trio shared one thing in common: they didn’t really know his father. “Yesterday I listened for several hours of three United States presidents who do not know Jesse Jackson,” Jackson Jr. said on Saturday.The reverend’s son called out the idea that his father’s life wasn’t defined by the “political order,” but by a commitment to those who were marginalized.”He maintained a tense relationship with the political order, not because the presidents were White or Black, but the demands of our message, the demands of speaking for the least of these — those who are disinherited, the damned, the dispossessed, the disrespected — demanded not Democratic or Republican solutions, but demanded a consistent, prophetic voice that at no point in time sold us out as a people,” Jackson Jr. continued.  Jesse Jackson died at the age of 84 on February 17 in Chicago.Following the death of Rev. Jackson, his son held a press conference where he requested politics be kept out of the services,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Timothée Chalamet is under fire this week and losing traction in the best actor Oscar race for saying just about the most obvious thing in the world: Nobody cares about ballet or opera in 2026.Here is the exact quote from the “Dune” and “Marty Supreme” star during a recent CNN town hall: “I don’t want to be working in ballet, or opera, or things where it’s like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive, even though like no one cares about this anymore.’ All respect to all the ballet and opera people out there.”The backlash was swift and severe. According to the BBC, Canadian mezzo-soprano Deepa Johnny described Chalamet’s comments as a “disappointing take” while, American artist Franz Szony wrote, “Two classical art forms that have been around for hundreds of years, both of which take a massive amount of talent and discipline this man will never possess.” But to today’s pretty boy of Hollywood’s point, who the hell are these people?When I was 10 years old, the greatest ballet dancer in the world was Mikhail Baryshnikov.
