President Donald Trump announced Monday that his administration would take over the District of Columbia police and also deploy 800 national guard soldiers and new federal law enforcement units in the nations capital."This is Liberation Day in D.C., and were going to take our capital back," Trump said at a White House news conference flanked by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Attorney General Pam Bondi and other senior administration officials. "Its going to be a model. And then well look at other cities also. But other cities are studying what were doing," Trump said. "Were going to have a safe, beautiful capital, and its going to happen very quickly."Democratic leaders responded with their usual eloquence. "Violent crime in Washington, D.C. is at a thirty-year low. Donald Trump has no basis to take over the local police department. And zero credibility on the issue of law and order. Get lost," House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., posted on X.Repeating the same talking point as many other elected Democrats, Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., questioned Trumps move by comparing it to his delay in calling out the National Guard to step the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.US ATTORNEY PIRRO SAYS ADMINISTRATION WONT TOLERATE OUT OF CONTROL CRIME IN THE NATIONS CAPITALDespite Democratic complaints, few should question the need for greater public safety in our nations inner cities. But under our federal system, crime remains the purview of the states. "The regulation and punishment of intrastate violence has always been the province of the States," the Supreme Court observed in United States v. Morrison (2000). As the great Chief Justice John Marshall declared a century ago,Congress "has no general right to punish murder committed within any of the States," and it is "clear [that] congress cannot punish felonies generally."Criminal justice sits at the very core of the states police power their general right to regulate the people and activity within their borders aside from the specific, narrow areas (such as regulating interstate commerce) delegated by the Constitution to the federal government.But that is not the case with Washington, D.C.The Constitution specifically creates the District of Columbia as a city beyond the power of any state. As James Madison explained in Federalist No. 43, the "seat of government" must fall only under the power of the nation. Otherwise, he warned, "the public authority might be insulted, and its proceedings interrupted with impunity," and the state where the capital resided "might bring on the national councils an imputation of awe or influence, equally dishonourable to the government and dissatisfactory to the other [states]." The Framers wanted the national government located in a city that would not be under any partisan control.TRUMP ACTIVATES NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS TO ADDRESS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL CRIME IN WASHINGTONBut in 1973, Congress passed a Home Rule Act (with President Richard Nixons support) that created a mayor, a city council, and some limited rights to self-government.This was a constitutional error.Under the Constitution, there is no true local government in D.C.; the entire city is but a subdivision of the national government. Trumps takeover of the D.C. police and his deployment of troops and federal law enforcement does not intrude on any rights of local government because, unlike the case with deployment of troops in Los Angeles earlier this year, there is no need to pay respect to a states sovereignty.WASH POST EDITORIAL SEES POSSIBLE SHORT TERM SUCCESS IN TRUMP'S DECISION TO SEND NATIONAL GUARD TO DCThe president needs no states permission to deploy U.S. troops and federal law enforcement to protect federal property, facilities, and personnel.Even if D.C. home rule did not run contrary to the Framers design for the nations only federal city, Trump would still have authority to take Mondays action. The president has an obligation to ensure public safety in D.C. Under Article II of the Constitution, the president has the duty to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed."All laws in the District of Columbia are federal laws. If the mayor and city officials are allowing rising crime, especially because of lenient laws and policies toward offenders, the president should intervene. He has the constitutional responsibility to restore common-sense law enforcement methods that will protect those who work and live in Washington.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONThe 1973 Home Rule Act itself, even if it is constitutional, recognizes the presidents authority. It allows him to take over the D.C. police for 30 days in the case of an emergency. The president could declare the high number of murders the capital city has always had one of the nations highest murder rates, and currently sits at the fourth highest an emergency. While murders in 2024 fell, they were coming down from a pandemic high; murders in D.C. are still far higher than the 2012 low. In any event, the Home Rule Act provision only applies to the D.C. police; the Act does not and could not limit the presidents authority to deploy troops or the FBI to protect the federal city.President Trumps decision to restore law and order in the District of Columbia is only the first step. He can take the necessary second step by working with Congress to end home rule and restore the control of the elected branches of government over the District.Just as he has asserted his control over the bureaucracy by firing agency heads, he could test the constitutional waters by removing the mayor and other D.C. officials.They, too, are only assistants to the president who help him fulfill his responsibility to execute federal law; if they fail to perform, he can and should replace them.A half-century ago, Congress and the president gave in to the misguided idea that residents of D.C. had a democratic right to manage their own affairs. But the Framers did not want D.C. to fall under anyones partisan control, especially those who would use their control of the District to influence the federal government itself (recall the harassment of Trump officials that went unpunished during his first term).Trump and Congress should admit that home rule has failed and start making D.C. the great federal city it should be.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM JOHN YOO

Former "Superman" actor Dean Cain ridiculed "Last Week Tonight" host John Oliver on Monday over his monologue claiming Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was "f---ed" if they let the actor join its ranks.Near the end of his show on Sunday, Oliver mocked both ICE and Cain over news that ICE had removed its age limits and would be swearing in the "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" star as an "honorary ICE officer.""You know, there's an old saying in Hollywood: If all you can get is Dean Cain, you are f---ed," Oliver said on his show."Now, I'm not saying that ICE isn't finding people. I'm just saying, when you are reduced to pinning a badge on the 59-year-old star of 'The Dog Who Saved Christmas,' 'The Dog Who Saved Christmas Vacation,' 'The Dog Who Saved the Holidays,' 'The Dog Who Saved Halloween,' 'The Dog Who Saved Easter,' and 'The Dog Who Saved Summer,' maybe you are in trouble."JOHN LEGUIZAMO TORCHES DEAN CAIN AS A 'LOSER' FOR JOINING ICE, BUT SUPERMAN ACTOR OFFERS GENTLE REPLYHe added, "Although, on the plus side, no need for that guy to wear a mask because the chances of anyone recognizing him are f---ing zero."Cain mocked the HBO host in kind on X the next morning."He stole that mask joke from the internet -- and he also laughed hysterically when Trump said he was going to run for President. Case closed. (and those movies were sweet, by the way!)," Cain wrote.During the show, Oliver also gave advice to viewers on how to interact with ICE agents, telling them to only say "Am I free to leave?" and "I want to speak to a lawyer.""And I recognize that in some cases you may be unable to help yourself from saying, 'Didnt you used to be Superman? I thought you died. I cant believe Im meeting a filmmaker, but that really is it," Oliver joked.FORMER SUPERMAN ACTOR DEAN CAIN SWORN IN AS RESERVE POLICE OFFICERCain will be sworn in as an honorary officer in the coming month, assistant secretary Tricia McLaughlin, the Department of Homeland Securitys spokesperson, said. Although it wasnt immediately clear what his duties as an honorary officer would entail.In an interview with Fox News Digital, Cain described joining ICE as a way to show support for the officers that he believes were being "vilified" for doing their jobs."If you're a legal citizen here in this country, no worries, you're great, but if you're here illegally, you've broken the law to begin with, whatever the circumstances are. You had multiple opportunities to self-deport, and the fact that these men and women who are doing their jobs are getting vilified, I had to stand up with them and for them, because I think it takes people standing up to change the culture," Cain said.Cain also defended joining ICE during a heated debate with anti-Trump The Bulwark host Tim Miller on "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on Monday."Now we've got ICE agents and, apparently, former Superman actors who are going to jump out of vans and nab them and hold them in deportation cells. That's insane. Like, that's not how you act in a free country," Miller mocked.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"I'm not untrained," Cain shot back, bringing up how he became a deputy sheriff and a reserve police officer nearly a decade ago."So, I don't know why you're saying untrained. And by the way, when you join ICE, they train you. So, to say that and try to denigrate because I'm an actor, I shouldn't be able to be concerned about what's going on with our borders or with our law enforcement agencies is denigrating. It's ridiculous. Should I say because you're a former Republican strategist, you have no say on anything? That's baloney," he added.

A sheriff in Virginia's historic Shenandoah Valley area said the fatal home invasion stabbing of a country music singer's mother is unlike "anything" he's ever seen.Authorities said an intruder killed 62-year-old Holly Hatcher, a former teacher, around midnight on Aug. 3 at their home in Rockingham County. Michael Hatcher, 65, shot and killed the intruder, who was identified by officials as 41-year-old Kevin Moses Walker.The couple's son, 31-year-old Spencer Hatcher, an up-and-coming country singer, announced he's canceling many of his upcoming shows after his mother was killed.Walker has no known criminal history, officials added, noting he was involved in a car crash two days prior to the home invasion. Rockingham County Sheriff Bryan Hutcheson said in a video posted to Facebook that he's never seen anything like this.COUNTRY SINGER'S MOTHER KILLED IN HOME INVASION BEFORE FATHER SHOOTS INTRUDER DEAD IN VIRGINIA"Speaking personally, this is 31 years in law enforcement for me. I have never seen anything like this in my entire career, just the way the unusual, unique and just crazy situation that this turned out to be," Hutcheson said.The sheriff said that the home invasion was random and "highly unusual," adding that Walker brought a "large knife" into the home.According to investigators, Walker was renting a campsite at Endless Caverns two days prior to the attack and was seen on surveillance video at a local Walmart buying a knife and sleeping bag.Hutcheson said Walker was killed in the driveway when Michael Hatcher grabbed a loaded pistol from his car and fired one shot.In a video posted by the sheriff's office, Michael Hatcher thanked the community for supporting his family.TEACHER ACCUSED OF ARKANSAS HIKING MURDERS BOUNCED BETWEEN 4 DISTRICTS IN 3 STATES"I've heard a lot of you say that there are no words to explain this, and there aren't and there's going to be questions that will never be answered," Michael Hatcher said. "But all I can tell you is: We've cried. We've hurt. We've hugged. And we have found more love than we have ever known has existed between us and between you.

He feels like the right artist arriving at just the right time in country music," Brown said.Spencer Hatcher said in an Instagram post that his planned performances at the VOA Country Music Fest in Ohio and the Rockingham County Fair in Harrisonburg, Virginia, are canceled."I hope to make these dates up to my fans in the future," Spencer Hatcher wrote. "I appreciated everyone that has lent their support to me and my loved ones."

There was a time when Travis Kelce's dating life was the subject of entertainment media, even without Taylor Swift.In 2016, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end had his own dating show, "Catching Kelce," on which he tried out dating 50 women, one from each state, in an attempt to find a girlfriend. The show lasted one season.Kelce's former teammate, Chiefs all-time tackle leader Derrick Johnson, told Fox News Digital how the locker room reacted to Kelce's dating show.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"He tried not to [talk about the show in the locker room] but we kind of teased him at times, because when you're playing for Andy Reid, there's no distractions. You got to do your job and do it at a high level. So we were aware of the show in the locker room. We'd throw different stuff out there. But when it came to football, it was all business," Johnson said.Kelce turned 27 in October 2016 when the show aired, overlapping with that year's NFL season. The tight end was in the midst of his first 1,000-yard receiving season and second-of-10-straight Pro Bowl seasons. And while the teasing for the show came in the locker room, Johnson says the team's veterans also respected the younger Kelce's abilities when it came to dating.CHIEFS LEGEND DERRICK JOHNSON WARNS THE DEVIL IS WARKENING AMERICAN CHILDREN"He had that taken care of. Good or bad, that's the area that he needs no help in," Johnson said.The show's first and only season ended with Kelce choosing a contestant from Kentucky, Maya Benberry, as his girlfriend. However, by 2017, Kelce was reported to have begun dating his next girlfriend, model Kayla Nicole.Kelce and Nicole reportedly dated for five years up until May 2022.Once Kelce began his relationship with Swift in 2023, Johnson took notice."He outkicked his coverage. Taylor's big time," Johnson said. "Kelce's big time as well, football-wise, but she is globally. So they're definitely a power couple."Johnson left the Chiefs for the rival Raiders for his final season in 2018, but his lasting influence preceded the team's historic dynasty and three Super Bowl wins, with five total trips to the big game, from 2019 to February 2024.Johnson was famously a team leader on defense in the early years of Kelce's career."None of us knew who he could really be. He probably didn't know it at all either. And once he got going after his second year, third year, I was like, This guy is the man!" Johnson said.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The man accused of killing a police officer while shooting at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) headquarters in Atlanta on Friday had previously been reported to police for suicidal thoughts and launched the deadly attack with his fathers weapons to send a message against COVID-19 vaccines, authorities said Tuesday.PatrickJosephWhite, 30, is suspected of killing DeKalb County Police Department Officer David Rose, 33, shortly before 5 p.m., in an attack that saw him unload around 200 rounds into six CDC buildings. White's driver's license image was released publicly for the first time on Tuesday.Rose, who previously served as a Marine in Afghanistan and joined the DeKalb County Police Department in September 2024, was responding to the scene and died from gunshot wounds.FATHER OF CDC GUNMAN INDICATES POSSIBLE MOTIVATION BEHIND SHOOTINGFive firearms were recovered by law enforcement, mostly long guns, with more than 500 shell casings found at the scene, authorities said at a Tuesday press briefing.Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) Director Chris Hosey said law enforcement made contact with White about mental health warning signs."The shooter had no known criminal history. Evidence in this investigation indicates that the shooter had recently verbalized thoughts of suicide, which even led to law enforcement being contacted several weeks prior to the incident," Hosey said.He said investigators are getting with the law enforcement that made those contacts to find out the details, but did not provide further information. White died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Hosey said.White, who was from the Atlanta suburb of Kennesaw, had police called on him three different times about being suicidal in the past year, Fox Atlanta reported. In at least one of those calls, White's father told dispatchers that his son had gotten a gun from his fathers locker.SHOOTER NAMED IN CDC HEADQUARTERS ATTACK THAT LEFT GEORGIA POLICE OFFICER DEADIn a September 2024 call, White told police his health had declined after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine and that his deteriorating condition had led to suicidal ideation. Officers said White stated he was in pain and had back surgery a decade ago. He claimed taking a gun from his fathers locker was "only a cry for help."After that incident, White was taken to Kennestone Hospital but refused mental health treatment on subsequent calls, per the report. Two other calls took place in April and July of this year.Hosey said that for Fridays attack, White broke into his fathers safe to get the guns, noting they had been locked away."All indications in our investigation was that they were secure and that he forced his way into the safe that contained the weapons," said Hosey, adding that the suspect did not have a key to the gun safe: "He broke into it," Hosey said.Hosey said that during a search of his residence, authorities found documents expressing anger towards the COVID-19 vaccine. He said there were no direct threats made in the writing, but it was described as personal manifesto to "make the public aware" of his views."A search warrant executed at the residence of the shooter revealed written documentation that expressed the shooter's discontent with the COVID-19 vaccinations," Hosey said."I would describe it as more of a public awareness. There was no direct threat... but it was his making the public aware, in his words, of his discontent with the vaccines itself," Hosey said in response to a reporters follow-up question.Hosey said the materials are being reviewed by certified behavioral profilers and shared with the FBI.White had been stopped by CDC security guards before driving to a pharmacy across the street, where he opened fire from a sidewalk, authorities said. The bullets pierced "blast-resistant" windows across the campus, pinning employees down during the barrage. More than 500 shell casings have been recovered from the crime scene, the GBI said.In the aftermath, officials at the CDC are assessing the security of the campus and making sure they notify officials of any new threats.U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.toured the CDC campus on Monday, accompanied by Deputy Secretary Jim ONeill andCDC Director Susan Monarez, according to a health agency statement. Kennedy also visited the DeKalb County Police Department, and later met privately with the slain officers wife.Kenedy recently announced that the CDC will no longer recommend COVID19 vaccinations for healthy children or pregnant individuals and canceled22 mRNA vaccine development contracts totaling roughly $500 million because he said the data showed that those vaccines fail to protect effectively against upper respiratory infections like COVID and flu.Fox News' Landon Mion, Alexandra Koch, Sophia Compton, Louis Casiano and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
