NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: American taxpayers will no longer be on the hook for child sex-change hormones or surgeries, as a key Trump administration agency announced Tuesday that Medicaid will stop funding such procedures and therapies.Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz tells Fox News Digital that the decision to implement a rule pulling the funding is “consistent with [the Trump administration’s] commitment to protect children from experimental and life-altering sex-rejecting procedures that carry serious long-term health risks and lack sufficiently reliable evidence of clinical benefit.”CMS, an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), says taxpayer-funded Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) will also cease coverage of sex-change hormones and surgeries. SEN HAWLEY WARNS IT WOULD BE ‘UNCONSCIONABLE’ IF BILLIONS OF TAXPAYER FUNDS FLOW TO TRANS KIDS’ SEX CHANGESThe rule will not affect mental health treatments for gender dysmorphia and other conditions, which will continue to be covered under Medicaid and CHIP.The move comes after years of what conservatives called ‘woke’ policies that opened avenues for federal funding of therapies and procedures to allow children to physically — and oftentimes permanently — transition from their biological sex…

Lockheed Martin on Monday announced the launch of Strigo, a new line of modular missile and sensor hardware, along with a dedicated product center designed to get weapons into the field faster. The line covers radio-frequency sensors, missile datalinks and missile seeker technologies, all built on a common baseline architecture. The company said the shared architecture allows Strigo hardware to be reconfigured for different missions, including air defense, missile defense and air-to-surface strike. Lockheed calls the Strigo Product Center a storefront for “ready-now and near-ready” hardware that it said can be adapted to customer needs. The company said the modular approach also lowers life cycle costs, though it stopped short of citing dollar figures. Lockheed said it has made a $250 million internal investment in the product center to date. The center was established less than two years ago and has already carried several concepts from initial design through testing, according to the release. The company said the center can move a concept from sketch to tested solution in months rather than years, allowing it to have parts on the shelf before the military even asks for them, in some cases.Stacy Kubicek, vice president and general manager of Lockheed Martin…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Bravo host Andy Cohen defended “The Real Housewives” show and brand on Sunday for having what a critic referred to as “MAGA women.”On his Threads account, the “Watch What Happens Live” host took part in a brief question-and-answer session during a plane flight where one user asked why there were “so many MAGA women” on the series and how she could no longer watch “The Real Housewives of Orange County” because of it.Cohen denied that the show was political and emphasized the need for “different” perspectives.ANDY COHEN BLASTS GOP SENATORS OVER FAUCI GRILLING, CLAIMS THEY WERE ‘BERATING’ HIM OVER ‘IMAGINARY CRIMES’ “If we didn’t showcase people with different POV’s there would be no show. Also it’s a show about the women and their relationships, not about politics,” Cohen wrote.Fox News Digital reached out to NBCUniversal, the parent company behind Bravo TV, for comment but did not immediately hear back.Over the past few years, multiple former “Real Housewives” have spoken out about facing pushback for conservative views — even when they themselves were not conservative.In 2021, former “Real Housewives of Orange County” star Kelly Dodd was fired from the series following controversial remarks about…

Cycling has produced some major crashes over the years. Everything from riding too closely to an opponent to unexpected obstacles can send cyclists to the pavement and cause major pile-ups.I don’t recall ever seeing one caused by an elderly fan on a mobility scooter. Not until today anyway. The fan appears to be trying to get a closer look at the action as cyclists pass when the nose of the scooter ends up on the course. It makes for an obstacle that several riders cannot avoid. There’s no time to avoid it as the group heads past the spectators at full speed. There’s no chance of hitting the brakes. It’s unavoidable and if not for eyewitnesses, you might think it was produced with AI.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGEThe sound of the crash is almost as insane as the video itself. You hear someone yell, then what sounds like a car accident. The impact sends at least one of the riders flying through the air over his handlebars. According to cycling journalist Eemeli, everyone involved “escaped without major injuries.” That’s incredible, especially for the rider in the orange, Paul Vriesman, who was seen doing the full front flip over…

The Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been worsening. Right now, the virus is more concentrated in Congo’s eastern province of Ituri, which accounts for more than 90% of the cases. As cases reach 782, there have been 181 recorded deaths of the Bidibugyo strain of the Ebola virus, according to the Congolese Ministry of Health. NDTV reported that the number of cases in Congo is believed to be higher because the outbreak was confirmed on May 15th, weeks after it is suspected to have begun, and the contact tracing coverage rate is at 56%, a sharp decrease from last week. Tracking and tracing have been much more difficult with the current circulating strain. The latest Ebola outbreak is caused by the rare Bundibugyo virus, which has no approved vaccine or treatment, unlike the “Zaire virus,” which was responsible for most of Congo’s past 16 outbreaks of the disease. So far, 56 people have recovered, and the current fatality rate of the outbreak is 23%, the Ministry said. That’s much lower than most Ebola outbreaks, but more cases could be out there, as people still fear going to hospitals with symptoms. “People Are Hiding” During Ebola Outbreak, Making…

Cornell University has opened an investigation after one of its students reportedly turned down an internship with a Jewish-owned company, saying he’s “Not interested in working for a Jew.”Austin Franco, a Cornell University student, rejected an internship interview with New York City startup VryfID because its co-founders are Jewish, according to owners Gabe and Aiden Einhorn. VryfID says it connects renters with landlords while also verifying their identities, which the company says will prevent fraud.”Hi Austin, I dont think I saw you on the call today. I know Sundays are not the best times for meetings. I would still like to have a quick call and give you more details on the company, as well as what we are building.

Secretary of the Navy Hung Cao on June 8 established the Department of the Navy Communication Strategy, aimed at combat not of the seas, but of information. “We are in a fight for the narrative,” Cao wrote. “Our adversaries compete not only with steel, but with coordinated disinformation designed to undermine our will, divide our alliances, and erode the confidence of the American people. We will not cede the information domain.”The purpose of the overarching communication strategy, according to Cao, is to streamline “enterprise-wide communication posture” in order to reinforce “an unwavering trust with the American people.”Further details regarding the communication strategy remain unclear.The secretary of the Navy’s announcement comes as tensions mount between U.S. media and the second Trump administration.In May, The New York Times sued the Defense Department in Federal District Court in Washington over the department’s policy requiring journalists to have an official escort at all times while visiting the Pentagon. The Times is accusing the Pentagon of violating the First Amendment. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth subsequently changed the policy on June 1, voiding the escort policy by declaring the Pentagon’s press office a classified space inaccessible to journalists.In his ALNAV message, Cao stressed that the…

Barry Moore was defeated by rival Jared Hudson, a former Navy SEAL sniper, in Tuesday’s runoff election in solidly red Alabama, the Associated Press reports.Moore and Hudson were the top two finishers in last month’s Republican primary, but with no candidate topping 50% of the vote, they both advanced to the runoff.Hudson will now be considered the clear frontrunner in the race to succeed Republican Sen.

If any kind of aerial drone tries to breach a miles-long exclusion area above World Cup games in Boston and San Francisco, Coast Guard defense personnel will be able to use specialized equipment to seize remote control of the system and land or destroy it. That’s according to Lt. James Hockler, the Coast Guard’s counter-unmanned aerial systems, or C-UAS, program manager. The smallest of all the military services, except the Space Force, and the only one that falls under the Department of Homeland Security instead of the Pentagon, the Coast Guard is nonetheless playing an outsized role in drone defense for major domestic events requiring unprecedented counter-drone response, including the World Cup and the Sail 250 maritime celebration. In the yearlong leadup to these events, Hockler said in an interview Monday with Military Times, the Coast Guard spent a $150 million allocation to buy a variety of C-UAS systems for a “layered defense,” emphasizing electronic warfare measures to disrupt radio frequencies and opened a new counter-drone training and logistics center in Moyock, North Carolina, that will continue to conduct instruction and drills after this summer’s events have concluded. The work is all illustrative of an emerging and deepening domestic security…

United States ruler Donald Trump appears to be the only one in power who thinks the Iran deal, scheduled to be signed in a special ceremony in Switzerland on Friday, was a good deal. Israel said that Trump screwed them, while US Congressman Seth Moulton says the deal is a “lose, lose, lose” for the US. Trump’s looming Iran peace deal looks like a “surrender document” to Moulton, a democrat. He said it fails to deliver anything America did not have before the war. The insinuation is that the war was started for no reason, and Americans were forced to pay egregious prices at the pump for nothing. While speaking on MS Now on Saturday, Moulton, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, called the new peace deal a net loss for the US. “This is a terrible deal. It’s basically a surrender document from Donald Trump to the supreme leader of Iran.” “I mean, $100 billion of taxpayer money already put into this war, 14 Americans dead, and we get a deal that just reopens the strait that was already open before he started the war? How is that a win?” Moulton said. While Moulton admitted that an end…
