NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., dismissed her and other socialist politicians’ far-left rhetoric as a thing of the past, but conservative opposition was not persuaded.ABC’s “This Week” host Jon Karl asked Ocasio-Cortez to comment on Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong’s controversial past comments — including calling for Thanksgiving to be canceled or for prisons to be abolished — some of which she has tried to backtrack on as she seeks the Democratic nomination in her state.”I have a local city councilman that has this saying, ‘Woke 1 was crazy,'” Ocasio-Cortez said while laughing. “And I think that what’s important is that we have to assess what a candidate is saying now.”This received swift backlash from many conservatives.ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ SHRUGS OFF PAST ‘DEFUND THE POLICE’ COMMENTS, JOKING ‘WOKE 1 WAS CRAZY’ “It sounds a little desperate to claim that you can’t hold a politician accountable for something wacky they said less than six years ago, and a call to cancel Thanksgiving is among the wackiest,” Tim Graham, the Executive Editor of NewsBusters at the Media Research Center, wrote in an exclusive statement to Fox News Digital. “Hong has inveighed against not just Thanksgiving, but…

DOGE reported $1.76 billion in savings from terminating a Defense Health Agency information technology contract providing IT services to more than 700 military treatment facilities worldwide.The Government Accountability Office (GAO) found the contract was never terminated; no work was removed, there was no reduction in its scope or value, and no funds were deobligated, according to a GAO review released on Aug. 6.GAO’s review found that after DHA officials discussed the contract with DOGE, DOGE agreed that no action should be taken to terminate it, yet the $1.76 billion savings claim remains on DOGE’s Wall of Receipts.DOGE’s April 14, 2025 entry identifies A1FedImpact and “Geographic Service Providers.” Data reported by DOGE and provided to Military Times by GAO shows about $1.83 billion listed as the total contract value and $1.76 billion in savings, with $62 million listed as the amount currently obligated.DOGE’s Wall of Receipts says contract savings are calculated as the difference between a contract’s total value and the amount currently obligated. But GAO could not determine how DOGE arrived at those figures because DOGE did not respond to the watchdog’s requests for meetings or documentation.DHA program and acquisition officials told GAO there were no savings associated with the…

Chicago Sky’s DiJonai Carrington finally responded to those criticizing her for posting “WHITE PRIVILEGE @indianafever” after being ejected for clotheslining Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham.But her response still doesn’t explain why she chose those specific words to post on her Threads account, presumably from the locker room, following her ejection during Saturday’s loss to the Fever.Carrington quote tweeted a retort to ex-NFL player and sports personality Emmanuel Acho, who said on his “Speakeasy” show that Carrington could not call her foul on Cunningham “White privilege.” “I’ve never once claimed that the assessment of the foul was white privilege (that was your assumption),” Carrington’s reply to Acho read on X. “Try exercising your critical thinking skills, I know you studied psych.”Furthermore, I’m the LAST thing from ignorant or asinine when it comes to speaking on ‘white privilege,’ do ya research on that one. I actually went to school, one of the top universities might I add, to educate myself on this exact subject,” Carrington, who attended Stanford for four years before grad-transferring to Baylor, added. “I would never use that term as a rhetorical weapon knowing the historical and social weight it holds without having the proper evidence to substantiate it.”FORMER…

A U.S. Navy warship that most recently deployed in support of military operations in Iran returned to its Florida homeport on Sunday.The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Thomas Hudner arrived at Naval Station Mayport along with almost 300 sailors after a nearly nine-month deployment to the U.S. 4th, 5th and 6th Fleet areas of operations.“Over the past almost nine months, this crew has demonstrated exceptional resilience and tactical proficiency across three different fleets,” said Cmdr.
