FIRST ON FOX   — Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers are receiving their third paycheck of zero dollars on Friday as the DHS shutdown drags on — with President Donald Trump saying late Thursday he would sign an executive order to "immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation" and "quickly stop the Democrat Chaos at the Airports." TSA exclusively shared with Fox News Digital stories of officers stationed at various airports across the nation who have been experiencing great personal hardship as a result of the shutdown and its consequences, with names omitted for privacy reasons. One officer at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia had his dream of owning a home abruptly shattered — forcing him to make life-altering decisions.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived in France on Friday to attend the G7 foreign ministers meeting where he will deliver a clear message on U.S. priorities for the ongoing war with Iran. In the days leading up to the meeting, other members have taken markedly different approaches to the war. Nearly all of Washington’s partners — Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan — have reacted cautiously to the U.S.-Israeli military campaign and declined to participate in offensive operations, even as they condemn Iranian actions. Before departing on Thursday, Rubio signaled a defiant approach to the talks: "I don’t work for France or Germany or Japan… the people I’m interested in making happy are the people of the United States. I work for them," he said in a video posted on X. The divergence has drawn frustration from President Donald Trump , who has pressed allies to contribute more, particularly in securing key maritime routes such as the Strait of Hormuz. While so...

The Trump administration has made new criminal referrals to the Department of Justice targeting New York Attorney General Letitia James, Fox News has confirmed. The referrals, submitted by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte, allege potential insurance fraud tied to properties linked to James and have been sent to U.S. attorneys in Florida and, reportedly, Illinois for review. "The Department of Justice can confirm that referrals were received by our U.S. Attorney Offices," a DOJ spokesperson told Fox News. One of the referrals obtained by Fox News alleged "suspected homeowners insurance fraud." WATCHDOG GROUP HITS LETITIA JAMES WITH BAR COMPLAINT AFTER FEDERAL JUDGE TOSSES CASE The criminal referral was transmitted to Jason Quinones, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida , who will determine whether to move forward with a prosecution. His office would then need to seek a grand jury indictment. The referral comes after bank fr...

President Donald Trump paused planned U.S. strikes on Iran just hours before a self-imposed deadline, citing diplomatic progress that Tehran immediately denied, even as U.S. forces continued moving into position, a split signal that leaves the next move uncertain. The move creates a narrow five-day window in which the administration is signaling diplomacy while preserving the ability to strike, raising the stakes for whether talks materialize — or whether the delay simply sets up near-term escalation. The abrupt shift follows a weekend ultimatum in which Trump warned the U.S. would begin targeting Iran’s power infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz was not reopened, a threat that rattled global oil markets and heightened fears of imminent conflict. By Monday morning, however, Trump announced a five-day delay, pointing to what he described as "very good and productive conversations" tied to a broader framework that includes nuclear disarmament.

We call it "Trumpism" for short, the collection of positions, policies and preferences embraced by the president of the United States. But does all this amount to a coherent philosophy that can be carried out by future Republicans once Donald Trump is no longer in office? And where does that leave conservatism? Trump never pretended to be a classic conservative, which deeply divided the movement. There are those who quietly abandoned their previous views and have backed virtually everything Trump does, from tariffs to deportations to the war in Iran . CONSERVATIVE COLUMNIST SAYS DONALD TRUMP HAS LOST THE COUNTRY. IT’S COMPLICATED. And there are those who renounced Trump from the start, who believe he betrayed conservatives – and who tend to have prime spots in cable commentary, so shows can boast they have Republican pundits (who happen to hate Trump). Some on the right bring a fierceness that eclipses the attacks by liberal critics. Former Wall Street Journal editor-i...

I don’t hear any cheering out there. A federal judge has thrown out the Pentagon’s draconian restrictions on what journalists can report, but most Americans don’t care. A policy that led to the eviction of major news organizations — from the New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal, to ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox News — has been overturned . It’s a big-time win for free speech. But the media’s credibility is at an all-time low, the result of years of bias, blunders and boneheadedness. That’s why there’s no sign-waving in the streets or digital high-fiving outside those involved in the business.  MEDIA UNDER FIRE: JOURNALISTS KEEP QUESTIONING IRAN WAR AS HEGSETH CALLS THEM ‘UNPATRIOTIC’ AND ‘ANTI-TRUMP’ Just compare that with the tsunami of reaction to ABC canceling "The Bachelorette" over violent footage of its star. Sure, many people may not know about the judge’s ruling , given that it’s hard for civilians to follow the blizzard of court cases involving Pres...
