FIRST ON FOX: The Trump administration has opened a federal civil rights investigation into Florida State University (FSU) over 32 scholarships accused of discriminating against students based on race or sex, according to a Department of Education (DOE) letter obtained by Fox News Digital.The DOE’s Office for Civil Rights said it will investigate whether FSU discriminated on the basis of race, color or national origin in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and whether the university discriminated based on sex in violation of Title IX.The investigation stems from a July 2025 complaint filed by the Equal Protection Project (EPP) that targeted 32 FSU scholarships. The DOE’s Aug. 4 letter lists all 32 programs, and confirms FSU is a recipient of federal financial assistance and therefore must comply with Title VI and Title IX.William Jacobson, founder and president of the EPP and Cornell Law professor, told Fox News Digital that FSU stood out even among the hundreds of colleges and universities his organization has challenged.A NEW YORK UNIVERSITY FACES JUSTICE DEPARTMENT INVESTIGATION OVER ‘BLACK MALE INITIATIVE’ “Florida State, surprisingly, has one of the largest contingencies of discriminatory scholarships that we’ve…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: Harvard allegedly failed to adequately safeguard research collaborations with Chinese institutions, including universities tied to Beijing’s military and defense-industrial base, according to a report from the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party.Researchers affiliated with the New England Ivy League co-authored more than 140 publications with other researchers affiliated with a group of Chinese universities, according to the report reviewed by Fox News Digital ahead of its public release.The “Seven Sons of National Defense” are a group of Chinese universities identified by the Pentagon and other U.S. officials as central to China’s defense research and military modernization efforts.

The committee argues the U.S. university’s financial ties to China heighten the need for strict oversight of its research partnerships and foreign-funding disclosures. HARVARD TOPS NATION…
It can be tough to hang up a favorite hunting rifle, but when laws requiring straight-wall cartridges go away, you might find yourself doing just that.I have become increasingly sentimental about things, to the point that I worry it might be a terminal descent into nostalgia instead of a meaningful period of reflection on what I have thus far accomplished in life. It could be the kids growing up or my hometown having changed so much that it no longer feels like the place I knew.And the changes keep coming.Even good things, on occasion, have a touch of dread—signaling broader changes and the unknown. Michigan recently announced that the “straight-wall zone” was no more, and regular rifle cartridges could be used for hunting deer. While this isn’t interesting to many people, it struck a chord that an era of hunting, scouting and friendships had come to an end.Using My SoapboxA lot of people I speak to know I publish on these esteemed pages. With them, I’m usually referred to as Josh the Writer to separate me from the rather dense crowd of other men blessed with that name who populate my neck of the woods. More accurately, I should be…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz publicly defended his vote to pardon a Laotian national who had been under a final removal order after losing legal status following a child-sex-crime conviction convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct involving a 10-year-old girl after the Trump administration deported him to Laos last week.Tou Lue Vang, 42, received a pardon from Minnesota’s Board of Pardons on June 10. Last Friday, the Trump administration announced that Vang’s legal status had been revoked and that he had been deported to his home country of Laos.Asked about the deportation, Walz questioned what the move accomplished.EXPOSED DOCS REVEAL WHY TIM WALZ BOARD AWARDED REPEAT CHILD RAPIST PARDON: ‘NO FUTURE’ “Did that make us any safer?” Walz said Tuesday, according to KTTC. “Did that make the children that are left behind any more stable?””Did it improve the idea that we can’t all be judged by our worst day?” he added.”And I want to be very clear,” Walz continued. “These are horrific crimes.

Is Lamar Jackson no longer even a top 10 quarterback in the NFL?According to at least one respondent in ESPN’s annual quarterback survey of executives, coaches, and scouts, the answer is no. Fox Sports Radio host Colin Cowherd agrees.”I no longer trust Lamar Jackson in a big spot. I’m selling my stock… I’d take Bo Nix today in a fourth-quarter, come-from-behind situation over Lamar,” Cowherd said Tuesday.SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM IS THE OPPOSITE OF MOST WNBA PLAYERS. AND THAT’S WHY SHE IS A MEGASTARCowherd then ranked his top 10 quarterbacks:Josh Allen (Bills)Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs)Caleb Williams (Bears)Matthew Stafford (Rams)Justin Herbert (Chargers)Joe Burrow (Bengals)Sam Darnold (Seahawks)Jared Goff (Lions)Jordan Love (Packers)Drake Maye (Patriots) On the surface, leaving Jackson outside the top 10 sounds like a form of rage-bait.While arguments that Jackson was on the same level as Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes often felt more like culture-war debates than football analysis, Jackson has been one of the league’s premier quarterbacks over the past seven seasons. He won two league MVP awards during that span.Given his previous regular-season dominance, Jackson’s MVP odds this year are rightfully higher than most of the quarterbacks Cowherd ranked ahead of him.That said, there is a valid counterargument.

As supporters of the Taking Care of America’s Veterans Act defend the legislation as the best chance in years to pass more than 60 veterans bills, the committee’s top Democrat says Congress should be prepared to abandon the omnibus altogether if lawmakers cannot agree on how to pay for it.Years of bipartisan work on the Major Richard Star Act and dozens of other veterans bills could take a different path if it doesn’t get the votes needed on the senate floor this week.Rep. Mark Takano, D-Calif., ranking member on the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee, told Military Times on Wednesday that Congress should abandon the omnibus package and instead advance the Major Richard Star Act and other bipartisan veterans bills individually rather than risk losing them over the funding dispute.“If Congress cannot reach agreement on the funding mechanism, I think we can pursue each of these provisions individually,” Takano said. “I believe the Major Richard Star Act would pass in a heartbeat.”The conflicted legislation includes the Major Richard Star Act, and the Love Lives On Act, along with expanded caregiver support, survivor benefits, community care improvements, education reforms and mental health initiatives affecting millions of veterans, military families, caregivers and survivors.…

The Odyssey may be the epic on everybody’s mind currently, but Boker is getting ready to release a folding knife treat for Lord of the Rings fans out there. The Inarsil is named, and takes its visual inspiration from, a key character in that book’s legendry. Quick history lesson, because this is important. If you know anything about fantasy realms, you know that named blades and generally magical weapons almost always play a crucial role in events. And when it comes to famous swords in Middle-Earth, perhaps none can rival Narsil. This longsword cleaved the One Ring from Sauron’s hand in the War of the Last Alliance – and many years later, its shards were reforged into Anduril, the sword of none other than Aragorn, otherwise known as the ranger Strider. We’ll leave the details of what Aragorn did with his EDC for you to discover. The Inarsil is a flipper Jörg Sprave designed Inarsil in such a way that it channels the look of Anduril/Narsil into a modern, albeit quite large folder. Nobody would call Inarsil a sword, but, with a 4.68-inch blade, it certainly comes in well above the standard range for a daily carry piece (not that…
