    CBS anchor claims Paramount settlement with Trump poses 'new obstacles' for journalists at the network
    CBS News anchor John Dickerson lamented parent company Paramount's multi-million dollar settlement with President Donald Trump on Wednesday."Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS News, settled a suit with President Trump today," Dickerson said on CBS Evening News Plus, a news program on their streaming service. "Journalists dont like to report on themselves. Sometimes thats false humility. Mostly, its a practical limitation. Reporters try to find order in chaos."Dickerson said the settlement and ones like it hinder the press' ability to "hold power to account.""The Paramount settlement poses a new obstacle," Dickerson said. "Can you hold power to account after paying it millions? Can an audience trust you when it thinks youve traded away that trust? The audience will decide that our job is to show up to honor what we witness."CBS SETTLEMENT WITH TRUMP SLAMMED BY JOURNALISTS, COMMENTATORS AS 'APPALLING' SURRENDERFox News Digital has learned that the sum being paid to Trump could reach north of $30 million with $16 million being paid upfront for his future presidential library, in addition to another allocation in the eight figures set aside for advertisements, public service announcements, or other similar transmissions, in support of conservative causes by the network in the future.Current Paramount management disputes the additional allocation, and a source familiar with Paramount's current leadership told Fox New Digital only $16 million was sanctioned by the official mediator, and they have no knowledge of any deal Trump made with incoming ownership as Paramount is set to merge with David Ellisons Skydance Media. However, Fox News Digital has learned that the incoming ownership will be responsible for the additional allocation.During the "CBS Evening News" program, which airs on broadcast TV to a much-wider audience, Dickerson had less to say about the settlement."In the end, Paramount decided to settle a suit it said is without basis in law and fact and an affront to the First Amendment," Dickerson said, quoting from a previous filing from Paramount.'60 MINUTES' CORRESPONDENT SCOTT PELLEY WARNS A CBS SETTLEMENT WITH TRUMP WOULD BE 'VERY DAMAGING'Trump initially sought $20 billion in his lawsuit against CBS over its handling of a "60 Minutes" interview last year with then-Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing the network of election interference leading up to the 2024 contest. CBS is not acknowledging any journalistic wrongdoing with the settlement.

    Court approves settlement after North Carolina student suspended for 'illegal aliens' comment
    A high school student's free speech battle against a North Carolina school board took an important step towards closure after a court hearing Tuesday.Christian McGhee, 17, was suspended last year after school officials deemed he made a "racially insensitive" comment about "illegal aliens" in class. The suspension led to a year-long legal battle with the Davidson County Board of Education.Last month, a proposed settlement was reportedly reached between McGhees parents and the school board. On Tuesday, Judge Thomas DavidSchroeder of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina ruled that the proposed settlement was "fair, reasonable and in the best interest of [Christian]," according to a press release released Wednesday by the student's legal representatives at the Liberty Justice Center.The school has reportedly agreed to remove the racial bias incident from McGhee's record, issue a public apology, and acknowledge that a former board member responded inappropriately to the incident. Additional terms of the agreement are sealed, but the New York Post reported that the family is also slated to receive a $20,000 payment.SUPREME COURT DECLINES TO REVIEW FREE SPEECH CASE INVOLVING STUDENT WHO WORE 'ONLY TWO GENDERS' SHIRTBecause the student is a minor, a court hearing was required to finalize the settlement, according to the legal group.The teen received a 3-day suspension in the spring of 2024 after asking his teacher if a conversation in class was centered around "spaceship aliens" or "illegal aliens who need green cards" after he returned to the classroom from the restroom.A Latino student present in the class reportedly "joked" that he was going to "kick Christians a--," leading the teacher to escalate the situation to the assistant principal.McGhee's mother, Leah, who was behind the legal push against the district, told "Fox & Friends" last year that their family tried "for weeks" to resolve the matter privately but were forced to file a lawsuit after getting no response from the school board.NORTH CAROLINA SCHOOL DISTRICT TO ISSUE APOLOGY, PAY $20K TO STUDENT SUSPENDED OVER 'ILLEGAL ALIEN' COMMENTThe lawsuit accused the school board of violating McGhee's constitutionally-protected rights to free speech and due process."The courts approval represents a critical step towards finally vindicating Christians constitutional rights and clearing his record of false allegations," Liberty Justice Center Senior Counsel Dean McGee said of this week's ruling.McGhee's parents said they were grateful and celebrating the legal win."We are grateful for the Liberty Justice Centers tireless efforts to bring justice to our son, and to the members of the current school board who chose to work with us to help resolve the case," Leah and Chad McGhee said. "Together with the help of our community, we have proved that constitutional rights do not end at schoolhouse doors. We are celebrating this victory and hope it encourages other families to stand firm in the face of adversity."The Davidson County School Board did not immediately return a request for comment.Fox News' Taylor Penley contributed to this report.

My next priority is going to be working with the command team to start working on trying to reduce this exclusion zone so that we can start to get our constituents back into their houses and try to get what we can reenergized in the area when it's safe."Evacuation orders remain in place for two nearby zones, and more than 150 customers do not have power.EXPLOSION ROCKS PALM SPRINGS, DAMAGING BUILDINGS AND SENDING DEBRIS INTO THE STREET"Our agency, being here in the local in a small community, we are primarily volunteer agencies," Lawrence said. "I would be remiss if I didn't add that I'm really thankful and proud of all of our responders that stepped up yesterday, and even today, and came out here. We appreciate all the responders and the mutual aid partners that came and assisted us."CAL FIRE confirmed the building was owned by an active pyrotechnic license holder, though the owner's identity has not yet been released.The Office of the State Fire Marshal, which is leading the investigation, sent an arson and bomb investigation team to the area, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom's office.As of Wednesday afternoon, 78.3 acres had burned with 0% containment, according to CAL FIRE.Officials have not yet released the cause of the fire.

    StopAntisemitism founder warns Mamdani as NYC mayor would be 'catastrophic' for residents
    StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez said electing Zohran Mamdani as New York City mayor would not only be "catastrophic" for Jewish residents, but all who reside in the city."If Zohran Mamdani was elected as mayor, it would be hands down catastrophic for Jewish residents of New York City," Rez told Fox News Digital. "And we would even take it a step further where citizens of New York City in general, due to his very troubling stances on socialism, would greatly suffer as well."Mamdani has recently faced backlash from several Democrats and members of the press for refusing to condemn the anti-Israel slogan "globalize the intifada" a phrase which Rez described as a call for violence against Jewish people.MAMDANI IS AN EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO JEWISH NEW YORKERSRez, who founded StopAntisemitism in 2018 to expose antisemites and hold them accountable, also raised concerns that Mamdani has reportedly taken part in protests against Israel in the past and has "been friendly with radical antisemites.""I think individuals who are concerned that Zohran Mamdani is antisemitic have every single right to be concerned considering his past behavior," Rez said. " We can list dozens of examples of his past antisemitic adjacent and direct antisemitic actions."DAVE RUBIN WARNS JEWS TO 'GET THE HELL OUT' OF NYC IF MAMDANI BECOMES MAYORMamdani, the 33-year-old New York state assembly member, has been an outspoken critic of Israel and has even vowed to have Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrested if he visits New York City.TOP DEMOCRATS, MEDIA DEMAND ZOHRAN MAMDANI CONDEMN 'GLOBALIZE THE INTIFADA' PHRASEIn mid-June, when asked on a podcast about phrases like "from the river to the sea" and "globalize the intifada," Mamdani responded, "I know people for whom those things mean very different things, and to me, ultimately, what I hear in so many, is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights."President Donald Trump blasted Mamdani on Tuesday and threatened to arrest the New York State assemblyman should he fail to comply with federal immigration officials.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"Well, then we'll have to arrest him," Trump told reporters Tuesday. "Look, we don't need a communist in this country, but if we have one, I'm going to be watching over them very carefully on behalf of the nation. We send him money, we send him all the things that he needs to run a government."Mamdani did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

    New Tennessee law will suspend driver's license of teens found guilty of bullying
    Teens in Tennessee can lose their sweet 16 driving privileges if found guilty of bullying other children, per a new law in the state. The law, which took effect on July 1, will allow courts to revoke driver's licenses for up to a year for teenagers caught bullying or cyberbullying other kids.The measure, sponsored by Tennessee State Rep. Lowell Russell, R., was passed with significant bipartisan support. The bill received praise from supporters as a step in the right direction to combat bullying among teens."Bullying can cause long-term harm that results in mental health problems later in a persons life. Most acts of violence and suicides are noted as the result of being bullied. I simply got tired of nothing being done to stop bullying," Russell had told CNN in a statement.TENNESSEE TEEN KILLS JIMSELF AFTER CLASSMATES OUT HIM AS BISEXUAL ON SOCIAL MEDIA, FAMILY SAYSRussell also said that he hoped for this new bill to gain the attention of bullies and deter them from being "mean to others" in the future.The driving restrictions will be enforced by the court notifying the Tennessee Department of Safety to prevent a drivers license being issued to anyone found guilty of bullying in a court of law. Additionally, if they are caught driving on a suspended license, the teenagers will be at risk of additional penalties.TENNESSEE STUDENT SUSPENDED AFTER VIRAL ANTI-BULLYING VIDEO HURTS FEELINGS OF PRINCIPAL AND TEACHERSDespite the new restrictions, the law does allow for some flexibility for first-time offenders. If revoked, teens can apply for a restricted license that allows them to still commute to essential activities such as school or work. However, the restricted license does not include driving to after-school extracurricular activities or social events.In order for teens to secure these driving privileges, they must apply for them within 10 days of the court decision and pay a $20 application fee.This new law is a continuation of the effort by Tennessee lawmakers to combat the issues of bullying and suicides among young people. The new penalties will only be applicable to bullying incidents that occur after the July 1st."I would like to see, going forward, movement towards working with the bullies," said Scott Payne, a manager for Contact Care Line, a Knoxville-based social services organization."Bullies arent just born. They dont just pop up. Theyre products of their environment. So we need to be talking with them and finding out whats going on in their lives thats bringing about this type of behavior from them," Payne told WVLT.

    Trump's remittance tax aims to slow illegal immigration by targeting the money flow
    The Senates version of the "one big, beautiful bill" includes a tiny, 1% tax on international cash transfers called a remittance tax which, according to experts, will have a major impact on immigrants working in the U.S.A remittance is a money transfer to another country outside the U.S., which is a common practice among immigrant workers who send part of their wages back to family in their native countries. Tens of billions of dollars in remittances are sent to other countries from the U.S. every year.Earlier versions of the bill included higher tax rates and specifically targeted illegal immigrants sending money outside the U.S. The current version of the "big, beautiful bill," however, imposes a 1% fee only on cash transfers, not electronic transfers, sent to other countries. U.S. citizens who want to send cash to other countries will also be subject to the 1% tax.The tax is expected to generate $10 billion in extra revenue for the federal government, according to an estimate done by Politico.TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' CLEARS FINAL HURDLE BEFORE HOUSE-WIDE VOTEBesides generating extra revenue, Lora Ries, director of the Border Security and Immigration Center at The Heritage Foundation, told Fox News Digital that the remittance tax has the potential to discourage illegal immigration into the U.S. by making it harder to send money back home."Illegal aliens generally want five things when coming to the U.S.: to enter, to remain here, work, send money home (remittances), and bring family and/or have children here," she explained. "Prevent those five things, and you prevent illegal immigration and encourage self-deportation."The administration has been pushing hard for illegal immigrants to self-deport, incentivizing them by offering to front the cost of commercial flights and providing a $1,000 stipend to those who opt to self-deport. Ries said the remittance tax could be another effective strategy besides ICE raids that could help to crack down on illegal immigration into the country and reduce the number of illegal immigrants in the U.S.TRUMP TO BEGIN ENFORCING BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP ORDER AS EARLY AS THIS MONTH, DOJ SAYSRies said, however, that the 1% needs to be much higher to be effective."A 1% tax only on cash transfers does very little. The tax should be much higher and cover all types of money transfers," she said."Until now, the U.S. government has not touched the annual billions of dollars going out of the country, not benefiting the U.S. economy," she went on. "Remittances should be taxed to discourage unauthorized employment and its earnings."ELON MUSK'S ATTACKS ON TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' HAVE 'NO BASIS,' SAYS NO 2 HOUSE REPUBLICANMeanwhile, Ariel Ruiz Soto, a senior policy analyst at the Migration Policy Institute, told Fox News Digital that though he believes the remittance tax will have a significant impact, it may not be in the way the Trump administration hopes.He argued that discouraging remittances to countries like El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras where such payments account for more than 20% of the GDP could actually drive more migration from those nations.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"Ifyou're Honduras, if you're El Salvador and Guatemala, even a 1% tax, if it decreases the remittances, could actually be a significant toll in the development of those countries," he said. "Ifthe remains were actually to decrease significantly, that could potentially backfire on President Trump's agenda to reduce irregular migration because he could actually make circumstances, economic circumstances in these countries more difficult and spur new irregular immigration in the future."The House of Representatives is currently considering the Senates version of the "big, beautiful bill."

    Rep. Jayapal defends comment calling ICE 'a terrorist force,' says White House 'owes an apology' to Americans
    Rep.Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., defended a recent social media post calling ICEa "terrorist force" Wednesday.During an interview with Brianna Keilar on "CNN News Central," the host spoke to Jayapal about herTuesday Instagram post where she wrote that "ICE is acting like a terrorist force. People across the country of all legal statuses including U.S. citizens are being kidnapped and disappeared off the street by masked men. No oversight, no accountability. Completely lawless."Keilar asked Jayapal to respond to a statement from White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson, which was obtained by Fox News Digital.ICE OFFICIAL PUTS POLITICIANS ON BLAST, DEMANDING THEY 'STOP PUTTING MY PEOPLE IN DANGER'In the statement, Jackson said, "Jayapals disgusting comments warrant an immediate apology. Heroic ICE officers are simply doing their jobs and enforcing federal immigration law, with the utmost professionalism.""Dangerous smears by deranged leftists like Jayapal radicalize their supporters to violently attack and obstruct federal law enforcement. Because of comments like Jayapals, assaults against ICE agents have increased by 500% this year. And that number will go even higher if Jayapal doesnt stop with her smears," Jackson added.Jayapal responded, "What is deranged and cruel and outrageous is that, literally, we are seeing ICE agents, I assume theyre ICE agents. They say they are. They dont have any identification. Theyre wearing masks. Theyre in plain clothes. They are coming and kidnapping and disappearing people on the streets of the United States.""I never in a million years thought that that is something that I would see here in America," she added. "And so I think it is the administration that has to apologize to U.S. citizens that have been rounded up to legal, permanent residents, to people with legal statuses across the country who are getting swept up, people who have been here for 20 years and committed no crimes, getting swept up by masked men who are kidnaping them and deporting them."Jayapal called ICEs immigrationenforcement "outrageous," "unconstitutional," and "illegal."'SQUAD' DEM SAYS TRUMP MAY JAIL PEOPLE 'FOR PRACTICING DIVERSITY' AFTER VISITING ICE-DETAINED STUDENTS"It is absolutely terrorizing people, including small businesses, farmers," Jayapal said. "The round table I had in Spokane was with people from the Growers League, farmers who are terrified, restaurant owners who cant have, you know, who are seeing their sales go down because nobody wants to come out and eat. Literally. People are so afraid, Brianna. Its never something I thought I would see in the United States of America. The White House owes an apology to the American people for what they are doing."Border czar Tom Homan brought up attacks on ICE agents on Monday during an appearance on "The Will Cain Show" where he also criticized a new app called ICEBlock that is reportedly beingused to track ICE agents."Assault against ICE is up over 500%," Homan said. "Now you've got an app that's going to tell where ICE operations are going to. It's only a matter of time before ICE agents are ambushed by some nut, like what happened in L.A., throwing them out a cocktail, throwing bricks at these officers. This is just disgusting at every level."
