WWW.FOXNEWS.COMSouth Park responds to DHS after department uses show to recruit ICE agentsSouth Park continued its war of words with the Trump administration on Tuesday.The official X account for the long-running adult cartoon show shared a vulgar message to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security after it used a screenshot of South Parks depiction of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to encourage recruitment through JOIN.ICE.GOV."Wait, so we ARE relevant? #eatabagofd----," the account replied in a repost.'SOUTH PARK' CREATORS RIP SKYDANCE-PARAMOUNT MERGER AS A 'S---SHOW', BLAME DEAL FOR DELAYING NEW SEASONDHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin responded to South Parks post in a statement shared with Fox News Digital."We want to thank South Park for drawing attention to ICE law enforcement recruitment: We are calling on patriotic Americans to help us remove murderers, gang members, pedophiles, and other violent criminals from our country. Benefits available to new ICE recruits include an up to $50,000 signing bonus, student loan forgiveness, and retirement benefits. Apply today at join.ice.gov," she said.South Parks post appeared to be a direct reference to a comment from White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers about the shows relevance following a controversial depiction of President Donald Trump in its season premiere on July 23."This show hasnt been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention," Rogers said at the time. "President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our countrys history and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trumps hot streak."He also trashed liberals who love the shows attacks on Trump, adding, "The Lefts hypocrisy truly has no end for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as offense content, but suddenly they are praising the show. Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREThe shows season 27 premiere last month took aim at Trump, depicting him as having a sexual relationship with the devil and mocking the size of his genitalia.The episode also accused Trump of covering up details of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case.At one point during the premiere, Satan mentioned he heard that the president was on the Epstein list."The Epstein list? Are we still talking about that?," Trump responded."Well, are you on the list or not?

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMMosquito-borne virus spreading through China causes high fever, joint painA mosquito-borne virus has led to a widespread outbreak in China, sparking concerns about global impact.The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a Level 2 alert for an outbreak of chikungunya virus in the Guangdong Province, where health officials have reported more than 7,000 cases as of Wednesday, per the AP.The virus spreads when a mosquito feeds on an infected person and then bites another person.HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS DISEASE SURGES IN SOME US STATES AMID REPORT OF POSSIBLE FATAL CASEThere are efforts underway to control the mosquitoes spreading the virus, including the use of nets, insecticide and drones, the report stated.Chikungunya cases have also been spreading throughout Europe, according to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC).Since the beginning of 2025, approximately 240,000 CHIKVD cases and 90 deaths have been reported in 16 countries and territories, including the Americas, Africa, Asia and Europe, the health agency reported in July.There have been no confirmed locally acquired cases in the U.S. since 2019, according to CDC data.Common symptoms of chikungunya include high fever and joint pain, according to Dr. Marc Siegel, Fox News senior medical analyst.They usually begin between three and seven days after being bitten by an infected mosquito.Some people may also experience headache, joint swelling, rash and muscle pain, the CDC stated.In most cases, symptoms abate within a week, but some may suffer from severe joint pain for months or years after infection."Occasionally, neurological complications arise, including encephalitis (swelling of the brain)," Siegel cautioned.TIGER MOSQUITOES BLAMED FOR SPREAD OF DENGUE FEVERPeople at highest risk of severe illness include adults 65 and older, newborns and people with comorbidities, such as heart disease or diabetes, the CDC said.Chikungunya is rarely fatal.The chikungunya virus is not transmitted among humans, and cannot be spread through physical contact, coughing or sneezing, the CDC stated.While there have been cases of chikungunya in Southeast Asia, the high volume in Southern China is new, Siegel noted."China's strategy for containment is also very restrictive and draconian, and won't likely work," he told Fox News Digital.The country has shared plans to use drones to seek out standing water where mosquitoes breed, as well as spraying parks, public places and even people with insect repellents, the doctor said."Officials are going door to door dressed in red vests and fining or arresting anyone who has still water," Siegel said, citing a New York Times report."They are also quarantining sick people in the hospital for a week under mosquito netting."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTERAnother tactic is using elephant mosquitoes, which produce larvae that eat the Aedes mosquitoes that spread the virus, Siegel added."None of this is likely to work, as people live too close together and these mosquitoes breed easily," he said.There are not currently any specific medications to treat chikungunya virus.The best way to keep the virus at bay is to prevent mosquito bites, according to experts.Recommended prevention strategies include using EPA-registered insect repellent, wearing long-sleeved shirts and pants, keeping screens on windows, using mosquito netting if sleeping outside, and treating clothing and gear with 0.5% permethrin (a synthetic chemical used primarily as an insecticide).For more Health articles, visit www.foxnews.com/healthTwo vaccines are available in the U.S. a live-attenuated vaccine (IXCHIQ) and a virus-like particle vaccine (VIMKUNYA), which may be recommended for higher-risk travelers who plan to visit places where the virus is prevalent, the CDC stated.Travelers should speak with a healthcare provider to determine whether they are candidates for the vaccine.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 11 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMWATCH: Trump DOJ to fight 'race-based gerrymandering,' Dhillon says amid Texas redistricting battleThe U.S. Department of Justice will act to crack down on the sort of "race-based gerrymandering" at the heart of the Texas redistricting fight, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said Tuesday."We are ensuring that all 50 states have and continue to have clean voter roles. We are challenging efforts to suppress or dilute the vote. We are attacking illegal race-based gerrymandering. And we are protecting ballot access for all Americans," said Dhillon, who leads the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, in a video posted Tuesday marking the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.After Democrats fled the state in an attempt to stop Republicans' attempt to redraw districts, Texas Governor Greg Abbott called on the Texas Department of Public Safety to arrest them for abandoning their duties.The ongoing debate stems from a letter by the Department of Justice that told Texas officials that the current congressional maps in Texas promote racial vote dilution in violation of the Voting Rights Act. The letter, in turn, spurred Abbott to call a special legislative session to begin the process of redrawing the state's maps.DOJ TARGETS NONCITIZENS ON VOTER ROLLS AS PART OF TRUMP ELECTION INTEGRITY PUSH"We have notified Texas of grave concerns about congressional districts drawn with racial motivations, and we are suing other jurisdictions where there is evidence of ineligible voters on their voter rolls," Dhillon continued Wednesday. "Our job is to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat. On this anniversary we honor the voting rights act not just by remembering it but by enforcing it for all Americans."Democrats have decried Republicans for pushing a partisan process, but the Justice Department has said the move is an effort to promote fairer districts. The DOJ's July letter says four of Texas's districts currently constitute "unconstitutional coalition districts.'" The letter goes on to assert that courts have ruled that "coalition districts" run afoul of the Voting Rights Act and the Fourteenth Amendment.SUPREME COURT ORDERS NEW ARGUMENTS IN PIVOTAL ELECTIONS CASE"We took a look at Texas, and we found that four of their districts in Texas are comprised of these so-called coalition districts," Dhillon said Tuesday on the "Just the News, No Noise," a show aired by Real America's Voice."In other words, to get to a special minority district, you have to add together multiple minorities or count on a certain percentage of a crossover white vote. And this is too complex, too weird and too inconsistent with equal protection."0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 11 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMTeamsters president reveals Bernie Sanders stopped talking to him after he spoke at RNCTeamsters President Sean O'Brien revealed on Tuesday that Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., stopped communicating with him after O'Brien spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention, saying the senator's attitude and level of access have changed.Speaking with The Free Press' Bari Weiss, the union boss said Sanders "doesn't talk to me anymore."O'Brien spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention but said he never heard back from the Democratic National Committee after requesting to speak. The Teamsters did not endorse Trump or Harris in 2024.Asked if he used to talk to Sanders often, O'Brien said he used to do rallies with him: "I think he looks at it as a betrayal of not endorsing the Democratic Party."DEMOCRATS LASH OUT AT MISINFORMED AS TEAMSTERS UNION MAKES LANDMARK NON-ENDORSEMENT"He's never said that, but his whole attitude and access have completely changed towards us," he said.O'Brien said his staff called Sanders and his team last week because they were working on the Faster Labor Standards Contract Act, which O'Brien said was a trimmed-down version of the PRO Act."He's got a problem with it and his staff [were] not too nice to my staff. So it's like, we're only as good to people when we're carrying that water, but I guess that doesn't matter," he said."I mean, look, I like the guy. I have respect for him. I saw him on Joe Rogan. I don't know. I mean, this is the problem with politics. People take things too personal. And when you don't go along to get along because you're actually listening to people you represent, and they don't talk to you anymore, you know, that's the problem. It's fine," O'Brien continued.TEAMSTERS BOSS PRAISES TRUMP FOREIGN FILM TARIFF, CONDEMNS HOLLYWOOD'S 'UN-AMERICAN ADDICTION TO OUTSOURCING'Sanders' team did not immediately return a request for comment.The Teamsters president also criticized former Vice President Kamala Harris during the interview, accusing her of pressuring the union for an endorsement.He described one off-putting encounter Teamsters leader Joan Corey allegedly had with the 2024 presidential candidate in a photo-op line."So, Joan goes in the line and Joan says, 'I'm Joan Corey. I'm a vice president with the Teamsters Union,' and [Harris] pointed her finger at Joan and said, 'Teamsters better get on board,' and so Joan says, 'Excuse me?' 'Yeah, Teamsters better get on board. I don't know why you haven't endorsed me yet.' So she comes back, and she tells me this, and I'm like, 'The nerve!'"CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREOBrien went on to claim that when Harris met with the unions executive board, which had prepared a slate of 16 questions, she only answered four."She really didnt answer the questions, and then on the fourth question, my chief of staff slides me an index card and says, This is the last question. Shes not answering anymore, because she wanted to pontificate and give her speech of why the country is the way it is, why we should endorse her," he said.Harris didnt respond to a request for comment.Fox News' Alexander Hall contributed to this report.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 29 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMPrince Harry issues blistering statement after being cleared of bullying claims at African charityPrince Harry issued a strongly worded statement after he was cleared of bullying allegations.On Aug. 5, the Charity Commission for England and Wales concluded that it found no evidence of "widespread or systemic bullying, harassment, misogyny or misogynoir" at the African charity Sentebale following an investigation, People magazine reported. They also found no "overreach" by the charitys current chair, Dr. Sophie Chandauka, or the British prince, 40."Unsurprisingly, the Commission makes no findings of wrongdoing in relation to Sentebales Co-Founder and former Patron, Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex," a spokesperson for Harry told Fox News Digital.MEGHAN MARKLES LEGAL CLASH WITH HALF-SISTER COULD DERAIL PRINCE HARRYS ROYAL RECONCILIATION"They also found no evidence of widespread bullying, harassment, or misogyny and misogynoir at the charity, as falsely claimed by the current Chair," said the spokesperson. "Despite all that, their report falls troublingly short in many regards, primarily the fact that the consequences of the current Chairs actions will not be borne by her but by the children who rely on Sentebales support."Fox News Digital reached out to Chandauka, who made the initial claims, for reaction.The Commission did criticize all sides for allowing the dispute "to play out publicly," citing poor internal governance and a "failure to resolve disputes internally [that] severely impacted the charitys reputation and risked undermining public trust in charities more generally."A spokesperson for Sentebale told Fox News Digital in a statement that the organization accepted the findings of the investigation. Theyre also determined to follow any recommendations made by the Commission."It provides Sentebale with some degree of reassurance that the Charity Commission has not identified widespread bullying within the charity, but the Commission has acknowledged the strong perception of ill treatment felt by a number of parties to the dispute and the impact this may have had on them personally," read the statement."The Charity Commission is explicitly clear, including in its public guidance, that it is not the Commissions responsibility to adjudicate or mediate internal disputes. This would include individual allegations of bullying, harassment, misogyny, misogynoir, etc."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER"As a result, the Commission has not investigated any individual allegations and therefore has not made any findings in relation to individuals, including Prince Harry. The issues not investigated by the Commission can and may be dealt with through avenues more appropriate than theCommission."A source told People magazine that both Prince Harry and the charity's cofounder, Prince Seesio, dont see a way back to Sentebale as long as Chanduka is in place."Both Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso are devastated by what has effectively been a hostile takeover by Sophie Chandauka," the source close to the former trustees and patrons told the outlet."This was Prince Seeiso and Prince Harrys life work. They established it 19 years ago and in that time put in blood, sweat and tears and their own money into building this charity up to what it was: a multi-million-pound charity that delivered nothing but good for the beneficiary community that is supported in Lesotho and Botswana."In a statement, Chandauka said, "I appreciate the Charity Commission for its conclusions, which confirm the governance concerns I raised privately in February 2025. The experience was intense, and it became a test of our strategic clarity and operational resilience.""I thank every dedicated colleague and the courageous new Board members who have stayed focused on the mission in the face of unprecedented media glare. The unexpected adverse media campaign that was launched by those who resigned on 24 March 2025 has caused incalculable damage and offers a glimpse of the unacceptable behaviors displayed in private. We are emerging not just grateful to have survived, but stronger: more focused, better governed, boldly ambitious and with our dignity intact."WATCH: PRINCE HARRY LOOKING TO RECONCILE WITH KING CHARLES, ROYAL FAMILY"Despite the recent turbulence, we will always be inspired by the vision of our Founders, Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso, who established Sentebale in memory of their precious mothers, Princess Diana and Queen Mamohato," she continued. To all who believe in our mission: please walk with us as Sentebale recovers, renews, and rises to meet the hopes and expectations of the next generation."A source close to the former trustees told People they found it "appalling" that Chandauka invoked the names of the founders and their late mothers in her statement "for her own good."The Duke of Sussex co-founded the charity with Seeiso, whose mother died in 2003, after visiting Lesotho during his gap year in 2004. Sentebale was created to help people in Lesotho and Botswana living in poverty and those suffering from HIV and AIDS.In a separate statement sent to People, former trustees said that there were key issues raised about the charitys leadership that they felt had been overlooked."We are disheartened by the way in which the Charity Commission has chosen to ignore key concerns and irrefutable evidence raised with them regarding the leadership and oversight of Sentebale's Chair," the statement read."We accept there is always room to strengthen governance of an organization, which is why we welcomed a governance review by the Chair initiated in February 2024, and that should have only taken a matter of months we unfortunately never saw a report or any outcomes enacted, more than two years into her tenure."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS"We remain gravely concerned for the future of the charity and the well-being of the communities we served for 19 years, following the mission set out by Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso in honour of their mothers," the statement concluded.In March, the princes and fellow trustees resigned amid growing tensions with Chandauka. That same month, Chandauka gave an interview to Sky News in which she alleged experiencing "bullying" from the Duke of Sussex and his PR "machine." She also spoke about an incident at a polo fundraiser last year with Harrys wife, Meghan Markle.Chandauka said in her interview that for the 2024 Royal Salute Polo Challenge in Florida, Harry wanted to bring a Netflix crew to the event, which led the charity to lose its original venue due to increased costs, forcing a switch to a different one.An additional last-minute change occurred when the Duchess of Sussex, who was not originally planned to be there, attended. She brought along "a very famous friend."That later resulted in an awkward moment, said Chandauka."The choreography went badly on stage because we had too many people on stage.The international press captured this, and there was a lot of talk about the duchess and the choreography on stage and whether she should have been there and her treatment of me."The media attention from that moment prompted Harry to ask that she issue a statement insupport of the Duchess of Sussex, Chandauka claimed."I said I wouldn't. Not because I didn't care about theduchess, but because I knew what would happen if I did so, No. 1. And No. 2, because we cannot be an extension of the Sussexes."At the time, a source close to the trustees and patrons told Fox News Digital they fully expected a publicity stunt. The insider noted that they remained firm in their resignation, for the good of the charity, and they looked forward to the adjudication of the truth.A source familiar with the events countered Chandauka's claims, noting that both princes sent a resignation letter to the chair and trustees on March 10. They resigned on March 25."Nearly 20 years ago, we founded Sentebale inhonor of our mothers. Sentebale means forget-me-not in Sesotho, the local language of Lesotho, and its what weve always promised for the young people weve served through this charity," Harry and Seeiso said in a joint statement obtained by Fox News Digital at the time."Today is no different. With heavy hearts, we have resigned from our roles as patrons of the organization until further notice, in support of and solidarity with the board of trustees who have had to do the same. It is devastating that the relationship between the charitys trustees and the chair of the board broke down beyond repair, creating an untenable situation," read the statement.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 25 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMDiana Taurasi rips WNBA salaries compared to overseas pay during her time playing: 'Janitor made more'Diana Taurasi, the WNBAs all-time scoring leader, has an upcoming three-part docuseries about her illustrious basketball career, "Taurasi."Prime Videos teaser of the docuseries has already gone viral.Taurasi has always been candid on and off the court, and the WNBA icon reflected on having to play overseas during the leagues offseason to supplement her income. In a clip from the series, Taurasi lamented having to do it in the first place.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Im the best player in the world, and I have to go to a communist country to get paid like a capitalist," Taurasi said, alluding to her time traveling to Russia."The f---ing janitor at the arena made more than me."Taurasi shared a similar sentiment in 2019 on a 30 for 30 podcast, "The Spy Who Signed Me."SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM INSTRUCTS REPORTERS TO TELL WNBA COMMISSIONER TO 'PAY US' AMID UNION CONTRACT STANDOFF"Forty-five thousand?" she said when asked about her WNBA salary. "Thats what Im going to make? Thats what Im going to make after four years of playing at the most prestigious basketball college? Thats what Im going to make? I mean, the janitors are going to make more than me. The guy who takes the floor out and puts it back hes going to be making more than me."Taurasis rookie salary with the Phoenix Mercury in 2004 after her tenure at UConn was $42,000. Over the years, that salary trended upward, ultimately leading to a two-year, $469,872 deal in February 2023.Taurasi made about $1.38 million in the WNBA over her 20-year career in the league. She also sat out the 2015 season because her Russian Premier League team, UMMC Ekaterinburg, paid her not to play in the WNBA.Taurasi explained the toll of having to play overseas."One time I came back, and I was like, Man, my parents have just gotten older, and Ive missed a big part of it. We werent making that much money, so generational wealth was coming from going to Russia every year," she said."Now, we have to come back home and get paid nothing to play in a harder league, in worse conditions, against the best competition in the world."WNBA players still travel overseas to play internationally during the offseason, though the new 3-on-3 Unrivaled league, started by stars Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, debuted earlier this year to help keep women in the U.S.Based on the 2020 collective bargaining agreement for the WNBA, the minimum salary for a player has gone up from $57,000 that year to $66,079 in 2025, according to Spotrac.
