President Donald Trump on Tuesday ramped up his pressure on Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell to cut interest rates, threatening to allow a lawsuit over the central banks $3.1 billion renovation project to move forward.Trump took to Truth Social to blast Powell, who has refused to adjust rates despite repeated demands by the president as inflation remains steady, holding at 2.7% in July."Jerome 'Too Late' Powell must NOW lower the rate," Trump wrote on his Truth Social.THE FEDS FOOLISH INTEREST RATE POLICY IS STOPPING AMERICAS ECONOMY FROM BOOMING"Steve Manouychin really gave me a beauty when he pushed this loser. The damage he has done by always being Too Late is incalculable. Fortunately, the economy is sooo good that weve blown through Powell and the complacent Board."Trump then went on to dangle the prospect of the legal action, although it is unclear what lawsuit Trump was referring to."I am, though, considering allowing a major lawsuit against Powell to proceed because of the horrible, and grossly incompetent, job he has done in managing the construction of the Fed Buildings. Three Billion Dollars for a job that should have been a $50 Million Dollar fix up. Not good!"The comments are Trumps latest public attack against Powell despite appointing him as the Federal Reserve chair in 2017. A Fed spokesperson declined to comment.GOOD ECONOMIC DATA IS BAD NEWS FOR TRUMPS INTEREST RATE PUSHThe Federal Reserves renovation is focused on two historic buildings in Washington, D.C.: The Marriner S. Eccles Federal Reserve Building and the adjacent 1951 Constitution Avenue structure, also known as the FRB-East Building.Powell and the Fed have previouslydefended the ongoing renovations, emphasizing that theyre necessary structural updates and not luxuries, and are in full compliance with plans approved by the National Capital Planning Commission in 2021. Powell and Trump toured the site last month.In a Truth Social post on Sunday, Trump slammed the costs of the overhaul."We are not going to allow people to spend $3.1 Billion Dollars on fixing up a building, like the Federal Reserve, which could have been done in a far more elegant and time sensitive manner for $50 to $100 Million Dollars," Trump wrote. "The Renovation would have actually been better, and would have saved $3 Billion Dollars, Traffic Jams and never-ending Construction."Earlier this month, Trump urged the Federal Reserves Board of Governors to take control from Powell if he resisted immediate interest rate cuts. The Fed has held its benchmark interest rate range between 4.25%-4.5%, which Trump has argued stifles American economic growth.TheFederal Reservedetermines its interest rate policy collectively through a 12-member panel known as the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), which votes on those decisions with each member including Powell receiving one vote.The FOMC isn't scheduled to meet again until Sept. 1718, meaning an emergency meeting would be the only way to cut rates beforehand.Last month, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., referred Powellto the Department of Justice (DOJ) for criminal charges, accusing him of lying about lavish amenities at the Federal Reserve's Eccles Building and misrepresenting its state of maintenance.Fox News Greg Wehner, Eric Revell and Rachel Wolf contributed to this report.

A Louisville father is demanding answers after a repeat offender, who had been released early from a 14-year prison sentence under "shock probation," allegedly broke into his home, kidnapped his wife and two sons at knifepoint, and forced them to help rob a local bank."Its pure shock your heart feels like it falls out of your body," Brandon Strong told "Fox & Friends" Tuesday as he recalled the terrifying moment he learned what had happened."It's a call you never expect to get as a father, a husband or even a human."MAN FREED FROM JAIL 3 DAYS BEFORE ALLEGED TODDLER ABDUCTION IN VIRGINIA, YOUNGKIN SAYSArmond Langford reportedly entered Strong's home and forced his wife and two of his three children to drive him to a nearby PNC Bank.Langford fled the scene after robbing the bank, sending police on an hours-long manhunt before he was apprehended. Strong's wife was transported to the hospital and treated for stab wounds.Langford boasts a lengthy track record, including 19 robberies and one burglary. He was sentenced to 14 years in prison in February 2024 but was released six months later when Judge Jessica Green granted him shock probation, according to a local report.Shock probation is a legal provision that allows a judge to release an offender early from prison, often after serving just a few months of a longer sentence, and place them under strict probation supervision.The idea is that the initial "shock" of incarceration will be enough to deter the individual from committing future crimes.CINCINNATI VIRAL BEATING SUSPECT POSTS BOND FOR JAIL RELEASE AS ATTORNEY PROMISES OTHER SIDE OF STORYLangford is now in custody on a $1 million bond, but questions are mounting about why he was free in the first place.Strong slammed the court system for the release and directed a message to the judge."It's squarely on you.

This guy is robbing people, he's robbing businesses, and you stamped this for him to be rehabilitated based on what?"It's unbelievable that this was allowed to happen," he continued later."This was not a guy running red lights for a few years. This is a guy committing serious crimes, and he was robbing people. why wouldn't he? I mean, he's not getting into any trouble," Strong said.

Texas Republicans, Attorney General Ken Paxton and House Speaker Dustin Burrows are seeking nationwide civil arrest warrants for the Texas House Democrats who broke quorum when they fled the state for Illinois and California.In the latest escalation of the redistricting debate taking national politics by storm, Paxton and Burrows are seeking to "domesticate" civil arrest warrants in Illinois and California for the Texas Democrats who fled the Lone Star State to block a Republican-led redistricting plan that could protect Republicans' slim U.S. House majority."We are pursuing every legal remedy at our disposal to hold these rogue legislators accountable," Paxton said in a statement. "Texas deserves representatives who do their jobs instead of running away at the behest of their billionaire handlers. If theres one thing Texans cant stand more than losers, its cowards."Burrows emphasized that "all options are on the table" to ensure House members return home to Texas to "fulfill their constitutional obligations."TEXAS ASKS ILLINOIS COURT TO ENFORCE ARREST WARRANTS FOR DEMOCRATIC LAWMAKERS"The State has no choice but to pursue additional legal remedies to compel their return from other states. Our full focus is on stopping this dereliction of duty and restoring quorum in the Texas House as soon as possible so we may return our time, attention and resources where they most matteron the critical issues of the special session call," the Republican House Speaker said.ABBOTT, PAXTON LAUNCH LEGAL BLITZ ON FLEEING DEMOCRATS IN REDISTRICTING SHOWDOWNBurrows issued arrest warrants on Aug. 4 for the Democrats who fled Texas, under Article III, Section 10 of the Texas Constitution and Rule 5, Section 8, of the Rules of the Texas House of Representatives.According to the attorney general's office, it allows for "[a]ll absentees for whom no sufficient excuse is made may, by order of a majority of those present, be sent for and arrested, wherever they may be found."More than a week later, as Democrats have yet to return, Paxton and Burrows are seeking to implement their warrants in Illinois and California, through the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the U.S. Constitution.While the Texas Republicans argue that other states are obligated to adhere to official acts by the state of Texas, both Govs. J.B. Pritzker of Illinois and Gavin Newsom of California have come out in support of the rogue Texas Democrats, as their home states float their own redistricting plans to balance the scales if Texas Republicans are successful.The Democrats will not be detained and escorted back to Texas unless a state court in Illinois and California accepts Texas' civil arrest warrants.Once lawmakers leave the state, they are beyond the legal jurisdiction of Texas authorities who can compel their return, according to GovFacts, a nonpartisan educational resource that explains U.S. government legalities.However, if they were to return to Texas, the Texas Constitution would allow legislative leaders to "physically compel the attendance" of missing members through civil arrest warrants, allowing law enforcement to find the missing Democrats and return them to the Capitol.Paxton has also filed a lawsuit with the Texas Supreme Court, requesting that 13 House Democrats' seats are declared vacant because they fled the state to avoid the Trump-backed redistricting vote.The conservative attorney general also filed a lawsuit against former U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke, D-Texas, for allegedly conspiring to aid and abet Democrats' effort to break the quorum.According to the Courthouse News Service, Republican Tarrant County Judge Megan Fay issued a temporary restraining order against O'Rourke and his Super PAC, Powered by People, hours after the suit was filed "to stop using funds to pay for Democrats' travel expenses and conduct fundraising to pay for such expenses in the future."When reached for comment, a Pritzker spokesperson pointed to his past comments, addressing the threat of nationwide civil arrests, in which he said Illinois law enforcement will protect "everybody" in Illinois.And a Newsom spokesperson flagged his X posts, trolling the Texas Republicans and urging them to "come and take" democracy.O'Rourke did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

A former municipal judge who lost to Philadelphias Soros-linked city prosecutor in the May Democratic primary announced over the weekend he would be registering for the Republican Party line in Novembers election, as President Donald Trump brings a new focus on urban crime.Philadelphia Judge Patrick Dugan, of the citys Far Northeast, earned enough write-in votes in Mays contest where no Republican was on that partys primary ballot to be able to run on the party line in November.However, it wasnt until the weekend that Dugan formally announced he would take the GOP mantle in hopes of ousting Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner.Trump, meanwhile, announced on Monday he is usurping control of the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, D.C., for the statutory 48 hours allowed under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act of 1973 due to violent crime he declared is on par with several capitals in Central America.SOROS-BACKED PHILADELPHIA DA SURVIVES PRIMARY CHALLENGE, BUT POTENTIAL GOP WRINKLE AHEADDugan said in a statement that he expects Krasner to try to tie him to Trump and call him an "extremist," but only "because he knows his record is one of failure, and he cannot defend the rampant crime his policies have caused.""I know that Philadelphians are smart enough to believe their eyes, and what they see is more crime, more drugs, more victims abandoned, more shootings, and more criminals let loose on the streets," Dugan said in a statement.The former jurist also reportedly said that although he will be on the Republican line, he identifies as an "Independent-Democrat."That wasnt enough to quell Philadelphia Democratic Party boss Bob Brady, who called Dugan a "disgrace" and appeared to kick him out of the party."Hes got zero integrity hes out of our party I dont need liars in our party," the former congressman told the Philadelphia Inquirer.SOROS-BACKED PHILLY DA COULD FACE UPHILL BATTLE FOR RE-ELECTION IF GOP WRITE-IN SCHEME SUCCEEDSThe Associated Press had called the Krasner-Dugan primary with the incumbent earning at least 60% of the vote. Dugan, however, garnered 53,000 Democratic votes and a shocking 6,400 write-ins.Because Pennsylvania is a closed-primary state, those voters were likely if not entirely Republicans.Dugan said Saturday he would be a DA for "all of Philadelphia," regardless of party affiliation."I cannot stand by and allow Mr. Krasners failed policies to continue to hold our city hostage. Every Philadelphian has a real choice this fall, and I believe they will stand with me for common sense and safety."Philly GOP chair Vince Fenerty added that the city now has a "real choice" between Dugan and Krasner, a "proven advocate for the very criminals he is supposed to prosecute."Pennsylvania state Sen. Joe Picozzi, a fellow Northeast Philly Republican, called Dugan a "proven leader" and said "firing Larry Krasner" is a top priority for him.Picozzi himself shocked the commonwealth when he unseated a Democrat in 2024, making him the first Republican state senator to represent Americas birthplace in decades.Krasner criticized Dugan for being a Democrat embraced by Republicans.Since Krasners rise, Philadelphia has battled a crime crisis, as well as the prosecutors penchant not to prosecute marijuana possession, certain sex work offenses and other low-level crimes.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPHowever, during some of the looting amid the George Floyd riots, Krasner indicated there had been 550 arrests for burglary and that he would "vigorously prosecute" many of them."Some of them, on the other hand, are an 18-year-old who's never had contact with the criminal justice system before, not even an arrest, who's going in through a broken window and coming out with a T-shirt," he added, according to CBS News.Violent crime as a category, however, has declined some in the past few years, with a decrease of about 17%, according to the Penn Capital-Star, to which critics have pointed to the custom of dropping charges on some crimes.Trump previously called Krasner the "worst district attorney," and asked Philadelphians who attended a 2019 rally in Hershey to "get yourself a new prosecutor."In a January statement after Trump took office, Krasner hit back, telling the president in a statement that "arrests and prosecutions are based on probable cause, not on whether you agree or disagree with a political position.""Unlike the current president, who this week pardoned or commuted sentences for over 1,000 lawfully convicted and sentenced insurrectionists, my office and others will continue to uphold the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law," Krasner said.
