MoreNEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Gov. Greg Abbott vowed to expand Club America chapters into every Texas high school and warned districts against blocking them as he and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick cast Turning Point USA’s (TPUSA’s) youth movement as a moral mission inspired by the late Charlie Kirk’s legacy.TPUSA calls its high school chapters “Club America,” and typically they set up tables on their school campus to promote TPUSA, while also bringing in conservative speakers once per semester.Abbott and Patrick framed the surge of TPUSA’s Club America chapters as a values-driven effort to shape the next generation, arguing that public schools should welcome the groups or face disciplinary action if they do not.On Monday, Abbott described TPUSA’s influence as evidence of a cultural shift among teenagers seeking clarity about faith, nationhood and purpose.TPUSA CHAPTER GAINED 100 NEW MEMBERS RAPIDLY AT TEXAS UNIVERSITY AFTER CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSINATION He said the growth of Club America reflects what he sees as a revival of foundational values on campuses and compared the movement to earlier faith-oriented groups that once dominated student life. The governor also portrayed Texas as uniquely positioned to accelerate that revival because of its existing concentration of…
“Bittersweet.”That’s the shorthand the Navy uses to indicate a potential friendly fire situation. But in the minutes before midnight Zulu time on Dec. 21, 2024, it was already too late to make the call and avert the disaster by the time commanders saw it coming.According to a command investigation published this month into the events that led to the guided-missile cruiser USS Gettysburg shooting down an F/A-18 Super Hornet from the nearby carrier Harry S. Truman and narrowly missing taking out another, a rapid series of missteps — and a long pattern of rushed training and failed equipment — contributed to the embarrassing and costly error.The 152-page investigation, released as part of a package of probes into mishaps on the Truman deployment that included a collision and an arresting wire failure, found the friendly-fire incident was entirely avoidable and caused by established patterns of miscommunication and oversights.From 11:25-11:26 p.m., while the Truman conducted flight operations in the Red Sea, the Gettysburg fired two SM-2 surface-to-air missiles at the two friendly Super Hornets, hitting the first and causing the pilots to eject, and missing the second. A third Super Hornet was also targeted, the investigation revealed, but not fired on.“The [Gettysburg…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Kelsea Ballerini has zero patience for hecklers. On Saturday, Ballerini — who was performing in Sydney — called out a concertgoer after they yelled out her ex-husband Morgan Evans’ name during an emotional break-up song. In video footage posted to TikTok, a person from the crowd is heard yelling, “Team Morgan,” during Ballerini’s performance of “Penthouse,” a ballad she wrote amid her divorce from the Australian singer-songwriter in 2022. “F–k off,” Ballerini said into the microphone. “Team everyone’s happy.”KELSEA BALLERINI’S HAUNTING NEW SONG EXPOSES THE LONELINESS FEMINISM FORGOT Before continuing with the song, Ballerini gave a thumbs up and subtle middle finger before belting out the lyrics to the popular song. After the concert, Ballerini addressed the mishap on her Instagram Stories. “Respectfully, if anyone yells anything disrespectful to anyone during this song again, it will no longer be on the setlist,” she wrote, per People magazine. “Please let this be a song that matters to people and not a place to insert yourself into a world that doesn’t exist and was never yours to begin with.””Team everyone’s happy or bust,” she concluded. “Please.”Ballerini was married to Evans for nearly five years before filing for divorce in…
U.S. service members will receive a 3.8% pay increase beginning Jan. 1 under the final version of the annual defense bill announced by the House and Senate on Sunday night. The proposed fiscal 2026 National Defense Authorization Act makes several changes to Defense Department personnel policy, including a 3.8% across-the-board military pay raise consistent with the Trump administration’s proposed budget request, as well as personnel policy alterations designed to improve troops’ quality of life. Under the bill, service members with families not only will receive a pay raise, they also will get more money each month when they deploy or are separated from their families for 30 days or more for training or other reasons. The legislation increases family separation allowance from $250 to $300 per month. RELATEDIt also allows expecting parents to use their parental leave within two years after the birth or adoption of a child and aims to make improvements to military and family housing. “We’re pleased to announce that the House and Senate Armed Services Committees have reached a bipartisan, bicameral agreement on the FY26 NDAA that supports service members and strengthens our national defense,” chairmen and ranking members of the House and Senate Armed Services…
Something’s fishy about this knife – and it’s the name. The Dace is a new Boker Plus flipper from returning design collaborator Joe Mangiafico, hitting a sub-$100 price point and delivering a solid suite of everyday carry specs. This is not the first time a knife has been named after a marine creature, but it’s probably the first time that the humble dace has been so honored. To be honest, it’s not the most visually inspiring of fish – more or less just your average-looking specimen, but evidently a fish that is a favorite of anglers, particularly in Europe where the dace is a native species. And, wouldn’t you know it, Mangiafico is himself an angler. The clip’s ano matches that on the pivot. He created a knife much more striking than its inspiration, with a clean ‘n’ mean drop point, with a 2.87-inch length and a stylin’ swedge that runs across the spine before meeting some finger jimping a little past the halfway point up there. Opened solely via flipper (much like a fish), the Dace’s blade is made from Nitro-V, a reliable modern stainless that sits comfortably in the upper echelons of non-super steel performance. The handle is…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The White House is turning up the heat on former President Joe Biden’s economic record as voters voice their discontent with current cost-of-living woes that President Donald Trump campaigned to bring down after his economic successes in his first term. “Putting an end to Joe Biden’s inflation and affordability crisis has been a Day One priority for President Trump,” White House spokesman Kush Desai told Fox News Digital Monday morning when asked about the White House message on affordability. “Every Trump administration official has been playing their part over the past year to deliver on this priority, from slashing costly regulations to securing historic drug pricing deals — efforts that have cooled inflation and raised real wages,” he continued. “Much work remains, but President Trump is highlighting the meaningful progress that his Administration has made and will continue to make to turn Joe Biden’s economic disaster around.” The Trump administration is facing a crisis over its economic messaging as Democrats increasingly, and effectively, lean into their message of “affordability” that helped deliver a series of election wins during the off-season cycle in November.

MoreNEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Legacy media outlets have rushed to revive the “Republicans pounce” trope in its coverage of murdered 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska. Recently released video of Zarutska’s killing last month in Charlotte, North Carolina, spread across social media. The clip shows 34-year-old Decarlos Brown Jr. standing up behind her on a light rail train and repeatedly stabbing her in the neck with a pocketknife. Brown has been charged with first-degree murder and is now facing federal charges.White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed the attack Tuesday, criticizing the media’s coverage.”Perhaps most shamefully of all, the majority of media – many outlets in this room – decided that her murder was not worth reporting on originally, because it does not fit a preferred narrative,” Leavitt said.LEAVITT BLASTS ‘MANY OUTLETS IN THIS ROOM’ AT BRIEFING FOR FAILING TO COVER MURDER OF IRYNA ZARUTSKA Much of the coverage has focused on the right’s reaction to the murder rather than the crime itself.The New York Times covered the attack with the headline, “A Gruesome Murder in North Carolina Ignites a Firestorm on the Right.” The article called the killing an “accelerant for conservative arguments about crime, race and…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A Florida radio station has found success after rebranding as “Trump Country” 93.7 FM and embracing MAGA with President Donald Trump as the face and voice of the operation. WHEL radio, a country station located in Fort Myers, Florida, uses the slogan “Make Country Great Again,” features signage that mirrors a Trump campaign ad, airs comedic promotions read by a Trump impersonator and even uses an AI-generated cowboy hat-clad Trump in its logo. “We made the rebrand decision shortly after President Donald Trump’s election landslide and witnessed all of the support in our area for Trump in boat parades and rallies. So, we made the decision that we would also celebrate Trump’s win by rebranding on inauguration day,” WHEL president and general manager Jim Schwartzel told Fox News Digital. HOWARD STERN SAYS HE ‘HATES’ ANYONE THAT VOTES FOR TRUMP: ‘THEY ARE STUPID, I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THEM’ Schwartzel said “feedback has been tremendous” and the station’s audience has grown significantly since the rebrand. “The people who have found the station celebrate and listen for long periods of time,” Schwartzel said, noting that WHEL has the most TSL — Time Spent Listening — of any country…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Why doesn’t Hermes just produce more bags and then everyone can have a Birkin? That’s basically the argument of people pressing President Donald Trump to declare a housing emergency. The fact is there’s plenty of housing, just not in the most desirable neighborhoods. Population growth is slowing, deportations are increasing and new home construction already outpaces family creation. The shortage is a myth created by activists so they can force residential living patterns to conform to DEI dogma.A simple calculation proves it. The Census Bureau collects annual data on both the number of households and the available housing stock. The latest data shows 131.3 million households and 146.5 million housing units, an excess supply of over 15 million units. Activists cannot deny the excess so instead, they argue that it is not enough.BLAME DRUGS AND MENTAL ILLNESS, NOT PRESIDENT TRUMP, FOR THE CHAOS GRIPPING OUR STREETSA well-functioning housing market has a natural vacancy rate. Just as labor markets need unemployment for efficient job matching, housing markets need vacancies for buyer-seller alignment, renovations and seasonal use. Activists say that rate should be 12% instead of the current 10%, and to hit that target an additional 1 million units are needed. But they are cherry-picking the baseline rate. Census data tracked since 1965 shows vacancy rates have fluctuated wildly, ranging from 8.3% to 14.5%. There is no stable “natural rate.” Today’s 10% rate falls well within this historical range. When you stop using artificially high assumptions, the shortage disappears entirely.Perhaps anticipating this, activists also argue that demand is higher than census data shows. First, they claim construction has fallen…

Russian “drone-type objects” were struck down after they “repeatedly violated” Polish airspace early Wednesday, according to the Polish military.In a statement posted on X, Poland’s Operational Command said Polish and allied aircraft were activated in response to the violation, along with ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance systems.The Polish military was “actively working” to locate the downed objects, according to the statement. It is unclear how many of these suspected Russian drones were shot down.“We emphasize that the military operation is ongoing, and we urge people to stay at home,” Poland’s Operation Command added, cautioning that the areas of Podlaskie, Mazowieckie, and Lubelskie were under the greatest threat. Poland is a member of the NATO alliance and home to thousands of U.S. forces. Following Russia’s illegal annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula in 2014, NATO enhanced its air policing operations in Poland with additional aircraft deployments to further ensure the integrity of NATO airspace on the alliance’s eastern flank. NATO also has deployed additional aircraft to the Baltic States, Bulgaria and Romania.Russia’s violations of Polish airspace come hours after the Ukraine Defense Contact Group met in London to coordinate further support for Kyiv. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte told the group…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! It really shouldn’t be that big a deal.Donald Trump was one of many friends solicited to send messages to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday. There’s a far more cautious one from Bill Clinton, too.If the president had merely said “yeah, I sent it, we were joking back and forth, nothing to see here” – this was in 2003, before the child predator was charged with sexual abuse – nobody would have blinked. The birthday book was assembled by his then-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell.INSIDE EPSTEIN’S INFAMOUS ‘BIRTHDAY BOOK’: CLINTON’S NOTE, POOLSIDE CANDIDS AND BIZARRE ANIMAL PICSInstead, he filed a $10 billion lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal for supposedly publishing inaccuracies in its report on the Trump birthday message.The Journal has now been vindicated.Trump flatly denied having sent a birthday message at all. He can’t draw, he would never do such a thing, it was inconceivable.Now it looks a lot more conceivable.As the Journal was the first to report, there is a friendly back-and-forth against the backdrop of a sketch of a naked woman’s silhouette.
