Massive ICE sweep fuels GOP push to lock Trump immigration crackdown into law

A massive five- day ICE operation that netted 426 arrests across Indiana is fueling Hoosier Sen. Jim Banks’ push for Congress to cement President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown into law before a future administration can reverse course. Banks hailed "Operation Safe Community: Indiana" in a Fox News Digital interview this week after federal immigration officers fanned out across his home state from Aug. 30 through Sept. 3, arresting 426 people with records involving sex crimes, assault, domestic violence, drug trafficking and weapons offenses, according to ICE. "This is why Donald Trump was elected in 2024: for mass deportation ," Banks told Fox News Digital. "It was one of his key agenda items during the campaign. And in this case in Indiana, you see the direct result of it."

A 76-year-old Florida man with a suspended license allegedly admitted during a traffic stop that he had been drinking rum — later telling deputies he had also recently used cocaine — just four months after a separate DUI arrest, authorities said. Charles Ducking, 76, of Lake Wales, was pulled over after a sheriff's deputy allegedly observed him swerving while driving along U.S. Highway 27 in Waverly, according to the Polk County Sheriff's Office.

How a six pack of beer and the Magna Carta could finally fix a problem plaguing Americans for decades

The Supreme Court will soon hear oral arguments in a case out of Alaska that centers around an airplane, a six pack of beer, and an amendment to the Constitution that traces its history back centuries as a legal expert lays out the potential impact of the ruling to Fox News Digital. "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted," the 8th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution reads. That amendment is at the heart of a case that will be heard by the Supreme Court in December and Cully Stimson, a senior legal fellow at Heritage Foundation, described it as "the case that libertarians and freedom-minded people have been hoping for for years." Kenneth Jouppi, now 82, was operating a one-man air taxi service using his personally-owned 1969 Cessna plane in 2012 when Alaska state troopers executed a search warrant on his plane and found alcohol on board, including one six-pack that they said was plainly visible...

Kamala Harris uses flower analogy to explain social media algorithms while discussing AI, midterms

Former Vice President Kamala Harris used yellow and pink flowers to explain how social media algorithms can repeatedly feed users similar content, arguing that the technology can influence what people see online. Harris made the remarks during an appearance on "Off Air with Big Boy" after host Big Boy asked about AI, TikTok, Instagram and the role personalized algorithms could play in shaping how Americans consume information, including ahead of the midterm elections. "There is a part of this that is about understanding that, you know, if you keep seeing the same thing over and over again, know that you are being targeted," Harris said. "Because you looked at it the first time, they're just going to keep sending it to you, which means they're trying to dumb people down with the assumption that people don't have any interest beyond what they've already seen," she continued.

Phillies shut out by Rays in opener of final regular-season series, pushing playoff hopes to the brink

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner went 1-for-4 and struck out in the third inning during a critical game with the regular season nearing its end. Turner’s strikeout prompted boos from many of the Phillies faithful at Citizens Bank Park. Brandon Marsh’s similar whiff in the fourth inning drew the same response from the crowd. The Phillies ultimately suffered a 2-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. National League Cy Young Award candidate Christopher Sanchez struck out ten Tampa Bay hitters in another strong pitching performance. But the Phillies managed just four total hits against Freddy Peralta on Friday night and were unable to push a runner across home plate. PHILLIES PLAYERS VICIOUSLY BOOED BY PHILADELPHIA FAITHFUL AT FLYERS PLAYOFF GAME The plastic tarp that circles the top of the clubhouse lockers in anticipation of a champagne celebration remained rolled up as tight as the Phillies seem to be of late. A playoff berth that seemed to be a lock just days ago will come down to...
