President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet next Friday, August 15, for the first in-person meeting between leaders of the U.S. and Russia since Moscow launched its deadly 2022 invasion of Ukraine.The leaders are expected to meet in Alaska, Trump said in a post on Truth Social."The highly anticipated meeting between myself, as President of the United States of America, and President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, will take place next Friday, August 15, 2025, in the Great State of Alaska," Trump wrote in his Friday evening post. "Further details to follow. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"The location of the meeting was a major point of interest after the summit was first floated following a call between Trump and Putin on Wednesday after White House envoy Steve Witkoff traveled to Moscow to meet with the Kremlin chief.ZELENSKYY TELLS PUTIN TO 'BE BRAVE' AND FINALLY AGREE TO TRILATERAL MEETING WITH TRUMPHungary, Switzerland, Italy, and the UAE were all under consideration, with Putin originally favoring Hungary, according to sources familiar with the planning.The Kremlin chief also shot down the idea of meeting in Italy, according to reports on Friday, due to Romes perceived closeness with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.Following the Wednesday Trump-Putin call, the U.S. president also spoke with Zelenskyy along with European leaders on the potential for a trilateral meeting.Moscow which has thus far refused to hold direct meetings with Putin and Zelenskyy has not appeared likely to engage in a trilateral meeting any time soon, as the Kremlins foreign policy advisor noted on Wednesday that the potential for such a meeting was "mentioned" but "not discussed."TRUMPS DEADLINE ON SECONDARY TARIFFS ARRIVES; US-RUSSIAN RELATIONS HANG IN THE BALANCEReporting later suggested that Putin may be open to meeting face to face with Zelenskyy, but only if certain "conditions" are met, though what these conditions are remains unclear.Putin has allegedly suggested that Ukraine would need to formally cede the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, which Moscow illegally annexed in 2022, but which it does not have full control over.Though Zelenskyy has countered similar territorial demands by noting that under Ukraine's Constitution a national referendum would need to occur for any territorial concessions.Despite the immense hurdles that remain, Trump appeared optimistic when speaking to reporters on Wednesday that "there's a very good prospect that [Putin and Zelenskyy] will" meet.Zelenskyy said at least one bilateral meeting between the U.S. and Russian leaders was suggested, which would potentially be followed by a meeting with Trump, Putin and Zelenskyy.It remains unclear what the president hopes to definitively get out of meeting with Putin in person after expressing frustration with the Kremlin chief despite months of attempts to forge a ceasefire.Trump wouldnt comment on how likely he thought a peace deal between Moscow and Kyiv could be on the horizon and echoed his previous frustrations with Putin by telling reporters, "I've been disappointed before with this one."

She said everything was fine from a vascular standpoint until Sanders primary care doctor wanted to refer the coach to a urologist. The doctor conducted a procedure and then referred him to Kukreja, the director of urological oncology at UC Health.Sanders primary care doctor said the coach had a bladder tumor, according to Askevold."We proceeded with the removal of the bladder tumor. We removed the tumor. It was very high grade, invading through the bladder wall, not into the muscle layer, something we call high-risk non-invasive bladder cancer," Kukreja explained.Kukreja said they discussed a few options, but Sanders elected to undergo bladder removal and the creation of a new bladder."I am pleased to report that the results of the surgery are that he is cured from the cancer," she said.Sanders sounded the alarm on his health issues over the course of the last few months.He revealed in a video posted by son Deion Sanders Jr. Sunday that he drew up a will amid concerns about his health. The video was shot May 9."Mentally, emotionally, last night was tough, yesterday was tough, because I had to make a will. Thats not easy at all, to think that you may not be here," he said in the video.Sanders took the Colorado job before the start of the 2023 season, and he brought his sons, Shedeur and Shilo, and Travis Hunter with him from Jackson State.The 2024 season was the most successful year out of the two that Coach Prime had. Hunter won the Heisman Trophy as a dual-position player, while the Buffaloes finished 9-4 and played in the Alamo Bowl.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The Trump administration is seeking $1 billion from UCLA to settle discrimination and antisemitism allegations in exchange for restoring more than half a billion dollars in frozen grant funding to the university.The proposed agreement sent to the school Friday requires UCLA to pay the federal government $1 billion over multiple installments, along with establishing a $172 million claims fund for alleged victims of violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.The Trump administration has already suspended $584 million in federal grants from UCLA after the Justice Department announced it found the school violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.TRUMP CONGRATULATES IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL AFTER $50M DEAL TO RESTORE FEDERAL FUNDING: 'WOKE IS OFFICIALLY DEAD'In a statement provided to Fox News Digital, UCPresident James Milliken said the university system had received the document with the offer and was reviewing it."Earlier this week, we offered to engage in good-faith dialogue with the (Justice) Department to protect the university and its critical research mission," Milliken said.

"UCLA, and the larger UC system, has taken meaningful steps to make it clear that combatting antisemitism and protecting Jewish students, faculty, and community members on campus is a top priority.""They have been committed to increasing security, strengthening policies against hate, and engaging directly with Jewish voices to better inform their approach," he added. "If the Administrations mission is truly to protect the Jewish community, they would be supporting that work not hamstringing it with these outlandish demands that would only take away needed resources and services for students and faculty."UCLA PAYS BIG SETTLEMENT OVER 'JEW EXCLUSION ZONE' DISCRIMINATION CLAIMS FROM STUDENTSCalifornia state Sen. Ben Allen, a Democrat whose district encompasses UCLA, said the Trump administration's demand is "harming the engines of American power, innovation, and, indeed, greatness."The move came a day after California Gov.

"Period. Full stop, I will fight like hell to make sure that doesnt happen."Columbia will pay more than $220 million to resolve multiple federal civil rights investigations, including $21 million to settle claims of antisemitic employment discrimination against Jewish faculty after the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks in Israel.Brown will shell out $50 million over a decade to state workforce development organizations as part of a deal struck with the U.S. government.In July, UCLA agreed to pay $6 million to settle a lawsuit brought by Jewish students and faculty members over the school's handling of anti-Israel protests, including allowing protesters to ban Jews from a part of the campus known as a "Jew Exclusion Zone."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPThe lawsuit was brought last year by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which accused UCLA of "aiding and abetting" an antisemitic culture, including "segregating Jewish students and preventing them from accessing the heart of campus."

Casey, who had been criticized for being too political, ignoring Congress and contributing to the arms-for-hostages scandal known as Iran-Contra."Every director of the CIA or the FBI should be prepared to resign in the event that he is asked to do something that he knows is wrong," Webster once said.In 2002, the Securities and Exchange Commission chose Webster to lead a board created by Congress to oversee the accounting profession in response to scandals involving Enron and other corporations.Former FBI Director Christopher Wray, who departed the agency earlier this year, said he was "deeply saddened" by Webster's death."My heart goes out to his family in this time of loss. His legacy will endure not only in the institutions he guided, but in the generations of public servants he inspired to carry the torch forward," Wray said in a statement.FBI AGENTS GROUP TELLS CONGRESS TO TAKE URGENT ACTION TO PROTECT AGAINST POLITICIZATIONWebster is survived by his second wife, Lynda Clugston Webster, and three children from his first marriage and their spouses, seven grandchildren and spouses and 12 great-grandchildren.

Liberal actress and comic Rosie ODonnell predicted on Wednesday that ABC is going to cancel "The View" to appease President Donald Trump.ABC has reportedly begun to scrutinize "The View," one of the most prominent shows on television known for far-left rhetoric. The Daily Beast reported about an apparent rift between the hosts of the show and the top brass at the company, going all the way up to Disney CEO Bob Iger, concerning a desire for the hosts to cool off the politics.ODonnell, one of Trumps most outspoken critics, wrote on TikTok, "You know what I just read today? ABC is reviewing the liberal bias on The View. The VIEW. The show with five women speaking the own opinions - That's the threat now. They say they're not canceling it they're just reviewing the bias. Which is code for - we're gonna cancel it we're just trying to soften you up first."'THE VIEW' HOST SUNNY HOSTIN WARNS COLBERT CANCELLATION COULD LEAD TO THE 'DISMANTLING OF OUR CONSTITUTION'"Apparently, the truth is dangerous now," she continued. "They say they want balance. But what they mean is silence. Silence anything that doesn't praise the orange messiah and his golden escalator of lies.""This isn't about bias - This is about obedience. This is about removing any program that doesn't align with Trumpism soft fascism in full lashes with commercial breaks," she said, before appearing to paraphrase a famous poem about the Holocaust, "First they came for the journalists Then the educators Then the librarians Now, it's Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg. It would be funny if it weren't so terrifying.""We are in a dictatorship with good lighting," ODonnell added. "I used to think the First Amendment meant something. I used to think you couldn't just erase a voice because it made you uncomfortable."ODonnell went on to conclude that rather than getting quieter, women should "speak louder" and "take up space.""We stand together and say what is true, even when it shakes the walls. Because the most dangerous sound in the world is a woman who knows what she's talking about and refuses to stop," she wrote.Fox News Digital reached out to "The View" and ABC for comment.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE"Rosie ODonnell is an irrelevant loser with too much time on her hands, whining about a failing talk show while everyday Americans are working hard," White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers wrote to Fox News Digital. "We can all thank Rosie ODonnell for helping President Trump make America great again by self-deporting to Ireland."In July, Rogers called out "The Views" ratings and suggested it could be canceled after co-host Joy Behar went on an anti-Trump rant."Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Its no surprise that The Views ratings hit an all-time low last year. She should self-reflect on her own jealousy of President Trumps historic popularity before her show is the next to be pulled off-air," Rogers said at the time.CBS cancellation of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" last month started a flurry of speculation that networks are shutting down left-wing content to placate the Trump administration.The cancellation followed the network and its parent companys settlement with Trump after he sued both for "election interference" over a "60 Minutes" interview edit of his 2024 opponent, then-Vice President Kamala Harris.
