NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A federal judge blocked the U.S. Postal Service from carrying out an executive order on mail-in ballots on Wednesday.President Donald Trump had ordered the postal service to transmit ballots for states only if those states first provided a list of mail-in voters, among other requirements. The ruling from U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan blocks the postal service from implementing the order nationwide.Sullivan argued that the order would violate the settlement agreement in an earlier 2020 lawsuit between the postal service and the NAACP. That agreement allowed the courts to oversee the postal service’s actions relating to the “monitoring and timely delivery of Election Mail.” “The Proposed Rule violates paragraph 2 of the Agreement because the Postal Service cannot post documents reflecting ‘practices and policies for prioritizing the monitoring and timely delivery of Election Mail’ if its policies provide that it will not accept ‘noncompliant mailing’ and therefore will not deliver mail-in or absentee ballots to some voters, and if it will not mail ballots to any voters in a state where the state ‘declines or fails to certify a list,’” Sullivan wrote in his opinion.Sullivan’s order comes after an earlier case saw…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! For years, America didn’t have enough homes to meet rising demand. Soon, it may not have enough homebuyers.A new report from the Mortgage Bankers Association argues the housing market is nearing a major demographic shift. After more than a decade of demand outpacing supply, slower population growth and an aging population are expected to reduce the need for new housing, potentially reshaping forecasts for homebuilding, home prices and affordability.That would mark a sharp reversal from the past decade.BIDEN’S ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION SURGE CAUSED HIGHER RENT AND HOME PRICES, FED STUDY FINDS Millennials, the nation’s largest generation, entered their prime homebuying years after the financial crisis, driving a surge in household formation that builders struggled to keep up with.As demand outpaced supply, home prices climbed. The pandemic only intensified the imbalance as record-low mortgage rates unleashed another wave of buyers.According to the report, slower population growth, lower birth rates, an aging population and reduced immigration are expected to result in fewer people looking to buy or rent homes over the next decade, even as builders continue adding new housing.A PROBLEM HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT IS KEEPING AMERICANS FROM BUYING HOMES If that happens, some…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! As America reaches a major milestone this July 4th, there will be elaborate fireworks, long parades and plenty of speeches about what this nation has accomplished and endured. All of that is worth celebrating.But if we’re honest, the more pressing question isn’t what we’re commemorating, it’s what we’re handing down. What we teach the next generation of Americans will determine what this country looks like at its next great milestone.Right now, we are in danger of handing them a version of America that has been stripped of the very thing that made it extraordinary in the first place: faith.SECRETS OF REVOLUTIONARY WAR BATTLEFIELDS EMERGE 250 YEARS AFTER AMERICA’S FOUNDINGLet me start with something that gets misquoted almost daily in our culture. The First Amendment does not say that God has no place in American public life. It says Congress shall make no law establishing a religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. It was written by brave leaders who quoted Scripture and opened the Constitutional Convention in prayer. America wasn’t born out of a desire to eliminate religion and become some sort of aimless, secular utopia. Instead, our founders built a nation…

Looking for a new iron or piece of kit to enhance the one you already own? Check out these 7 new bits of guns and gear to grow your firearms wish list.The New Guns And Gear:MAC LMF-Series MP5 HandguardOne of the most iconic configurations of the MP5 is that of the SureFire flashlight foregrip, but old-school models are hard to find and very pricy, and SureFire’s contemporary version is expensive too and doesn’t quite look like the original. Solution? Military Armament Corporation’s new Light Mounted Foregrip (LMF). It’s compatible with the MAC 5, POF MP5, MKE AP5, Zenith ZF-5 and original HK models. It features an LED flashlight that can put out 700 lumens and 9,000 candela for five hours, powered by two CR123A batteries. The pressure pad integrated into the right side of the grip allows for momentary and constant-on activation, and the bezel features standard scout light threading if you’d like to replace it. MAC even improved upon the original design by moving the light a bit lower from the muzzle to allow for better suppressor compatibility. Better yet, it’s far more affordable than SureFire’s version.MSRP: $200PTR The Jack SBS FSThere’s never been a better time to buy…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche on Wednesday rejected California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s claims that the Justice Department is politically targeting him, saying the governor’s assertions are not “grounded in fact.”Blanche responded to comments made by Newsom, who said last month that the Justice Department is investigating him and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, under orders from President Donald Trump.While Blanche declined to comment on any ongoing investigations, he dismissed the governor’s claims.GAVIN NEWSOM CLAIMS TRUMP ORDERED DOJ PROBE TARGETING HIM AND HIS WIFE “The only thing I’ll say about what he chose to do and what he chose to say is, I’m not sure his words are in any way grounded in fact,” Blanche said during a news conference.”He’d have to address that,” Blanche added.Newsom claimed June 15 that Trump had directed the Justice Department to investigate him and his wife in an effort to undermine a potential White House campaign.The California governor has described the investigation as a politically motivated “fishing expedition” by Trump’s DOJ, saying he and his wife have “nothing to hide.” Newsom has also argued the inquiry is aimed at him because he is considering a presidential run,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, announced on Wednesday the state’s intention to use a new state law to designate dozens of groups as terrorist organizations, a move that would still require approval by the Florida Cabinet, prompting legal objections from at least one of the groups.HB 1471 was signed into law earlier this year and went into effect on Wednesday.The governor said the state plans to implement its new statutory authority to “identify, designate, and combat terrorist organizations operating in Florida” in the first use of powers established under the legislation.Florida officials plan to designate more than 90 groups as terrorist organizations, including the Council on American-Islamic Relations the Muslim Brotherhood and Antifa, though the proposed designations must be approved by the governor and Cabinet before they are finalized under the statute.FLORIDA’S CAIR THREATENS LAWSUIT AGAINST DESANTIS AFTER HE LABELS GROUP A ‘FOREIGN TERRORIST’ ORGANIZATION “Last December, I signed an Executive Order to eliminate the influence of radical terrorist ideologies and the organizations that promote them in Florida.

The Los Angeles Dodgers made headlines in 2025 for a number of reasons. Their front office once again built a dominant roster full of star players. They won back-to-back World Series, becoming the first team since the New York Yankees more than two decades ago to do so.But the Dodgers organization seems to always find itself in the middle of other off-field controversies, and last season was no exception. When federal immigration officials surged enforcement into Los Angeles, which has long been a hotbed of illegal immigration, the Dodgers inexplicably got themselves involved.Some Customs and Border Patrol agents parked their cars briefly in the Dodger Stadium parking lot as they prepared to move to a different location. The Dodgers, then, issued a completely false statement saying they’d denied ICE agents access to the parking lot. Except ICE agents, the agency confirmed, never went to Dodger Stadium.ICE DENIES SENDING AGENTS TO DODGER STADIUM AS TEAM SAYS THEY WERE TURNED AWAY They left the post up regardless, apparently out of a desire to receive praise from the political left and local far-left sportswriters. It worked, as they received widespread support despite being factually wrong. At the time, OutKick reached out to the…
