President Trump on Friday afternoon will host a roundtable at the State Department centered on the mining industry. “The mining industry has never had a greater champion than President Trump,” White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers said in a statement. “His unprecedented support has driven record investment, streamlined permitting, and delivered real results for American workers, companies, and communities.” She added, “President Trump is the first president in decades to prioritize our country’s mining industry, unleash its abundant resources, and build the next generation of American miners.” He is also expected to announce $180 million in grant funding to boost education around mining, according to White House press…

The White House released a cache of declassified FBI documents showing the bureau launched a counterintelligence investigation in May 2017 that treated President Donald Trump as a potential agent of Russia, a probe later found to rest on insufficient evidence. The documents, published through the White House's Government Transparency Task Force, center on an FBI memo dated May 16, 2017, just days after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey. That memo opened an investigation codenamed "Oxferd Comma" and directed agents to determine whether the sitting president of the United States was "directed by, controlled by, and/or coordinated activities with, the Russian Federation in a manner constituting a threat to the national security of the…Open

A decade-old radio interview in which New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani speaks in a noticeably different accent has resurfaced online, drawing pointed criticism from conservatives who call the performance a calculated fraud. The clip, recorded in 2016 on South Africa's Kaya 959 radio station, shows Mamdani promoting his mother's Disney film Queen of Katwe, and speaking in what critics describe as an exaggerated Ugandan accent sharply at odds with his usual New York cadence. Mamdani, who was born in Uganda but moved to New York City at age seven, told the interviewer he was "from Uganda" and contrasted Ugandan and New York dance culture. Fox News Digital reported that the clip spread rapidly across the social media platform X on…Open

More than 180,000 customer accounts across San Juan and six surrounding municipalities lost running water under a mandatory rationing order that took effect Friday, a crisis driven by record drought and a water system that loses nearly two-thirds of everything it produces. Residents woke to dry taps and a grim schedule: two groups alternating at least 48 hours without water at a time, with government officials warning outages could stretch to 72 hours if conditions worsen. No end date has been announced. Families filled jugs and buckets wherever they could. In Trujillo Alto, just outside the capital, residents hauled water from a natural spring. Government tanker trucks rolled into neighborhoods to distribute what the pipes could not…Open
President Trump signed two executive orders Thursday targeting birth tourism and expanding the categories of people ineligible for automatic birthright citizenship, a direct response to the Supreme Court's June ruling that blocked his earlier, broader attempt.

President Trump signed two executive orders Thursday targeting birth tourism and expanding the categories of people ineligible for automatic birthright citizenship, a direct response to the Supreme Court's June ruling that blocked his earlier, broader attempt. The orders represent the administration's sharpest move yet on an issue that has defined Trump's immigration agenda since his first days in office. The first order identifies specific groups whose children born on U.S. soil would no longer qualify for automatic citizenship, including children of designated alien enemies, members of foreign terrorist organizations, and individuals who lobby or act on behalf of foreign governments. The second order formally bans birth tourism by…Open

The judge presiding over the trial of men accused of gang-raping LSU student Madison Brooks has a son who is a convicted sexual predator, and text messages from one defendant claim the judge will rule in his favor. Desmond Carter, 21, is set to stand trial on August 17 in Louisiana's 19th Judicial District Court. He is the first of three men accused of raping Brooks, who was 19 years old when she was allegedly attacked after a night out in 2023. Brooks was later struck and killed by a car. Judge Gail Ray will preside over Carter's trial, the same judge whose son, Nelson Taylor, was convicted of several counts of forcible rape in 1997. Court records reviewed by Fox News Digital show Taylor, now 46, admitted to raping several girls who…Open

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon filed three motions to dismiss federal criminal civil rights charges in Minnesota, arguing the Justice Department targeted him as retaliation for his reporting, after a magistrate judge had already rejected the case for lack of probable cause. Lemon's legal team laid out a combative defense on Friday, accusing prosecutors of vindictive prosecution, violating his First Amendment rights, and misapplying the criminal statutes used to charge him. The motions, filed in federal court in Minnesota, amount to a sweeping challenge not just to the charges but to the DOJ's conduct throughout the case. The department did not immediately respond to a request for comment, CBS News reported . Federal prosecutors charged…Open

A source close to the Duchess of Sussex pushed back on Martha Stewart's claim that Meghan Markle was openly discussing her family's visit with King Charles at a California dinner party, but Stewart's broader critique of Markle's lifestyle credentials may sting longer than the gossip. Stewart told People magazine that she attended a dinner party in California where Markle was also a guest, and that the Duchess had "just gotten back from the palace." Stewart said Markle was "talking about" the trip, though the two barely spoke directly. A source close to Markle offered a different version to the Mirror. The source said Meghan had simply been asked by another guest about her "European vacation" and replied that "it was nice, and that was…Open
