Meghan Markle is back with Season 2 of her Netflix series and the royal family wont be watching.The claim was made by royal expert Kinsey Schofield of YouTubes "Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered" on the eve of "With Love, Meghan" premiering Aug. 26."According to my sources, Season 2 is not even on the palaces radar," Schofield claimed to Fox News Digital. "It poses no impact on the core four: King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales When it comes to something as trivial as Meghan Markle making bath salts, the royals have far bigger priorities."PRINCE HARRY, MEGHAN MARKLE COMPARED TO OBAMAS AS NEW NETFLIX DEAL SIGNALS THEYVE TAKEN A 'BAD HIT'Schofield pointed out that friends of William and his wife, Kate Middleton, recently spoke to Bella magazine, claiming that the Duchess of Sussexs latest ventures are "all very budget and rushed.""That sentiment aligns completely with what my sources tell me," said Schofield. "Theres a sense of desperation that the royal family simply cannot relate to They wont lose any sleep over the prospect of With Love, Meghan. It wont be on their calendars, and they certainly wont be making her pasta or bath salts."WATCH: MEGHAN MARKLE MOVED ON FROM ROYAL FAMILY DRAMA, AUTHOR CLAIMSOn Aug. 11, the Duke and Duchess of Sussexs Netflix partnership was extended with a multi-year, first-look deal for film and television projects through Archewell Productions.Despite the success of the lifestyle series, which premiered in March,The Hollywood Reporter claimed the Netflix change mirrored the "downgrade" the Obamas experienced with the streamer and their Higher Ground banner."We're proud to extend our partnership with Netflix and expand our work together to include the As Ever brand," Meghan, 44, previously said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital."My husband and I feel inspired by our partners who work closely with us and our Archewell Productions team to create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision."British royals expert Hilary Fordwich claimed to Fox News Digital that the royals are said to be "relieved" that Meghan didnt make any revelations about the royal family in Season 1. Therefore, theres no reason for them to tune in."Senior royals have zero interest in watching Meghan Markles show," Fordwich claimed. "Its deemed irrelevant while it avoids nakedly commercializing their royal connections."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERBritish broadcaster and photographer Helena Chard claimed to Fox News Digital that she isnt surprised the royal family has reportedly been dismissive of the series."The second season of Meghans passion project is a pretty inoffensive, run-of-the-mill series," said Chard."I doubt this is on the royal familys radar of priorities, and its most definitely not a worry to The Firm. The average person feels that With Love, Meghan lacks a wow factor. I hear Netflix hopes to strike gold with an obvious big bucks series. A second Harry and Meghan docuseries or a documentary about Princess Diana ahead of the 30th anniversary of her death is on their wish list."Meghan, an American actress, became the Duchess of Sussex when she married the British prince, 40, in 2018. They stepped back as senior royals in 2020, citing the unbearable intrusions of the British princess and a lack of support from the palace. They went on to air their grievances in interviews, documentaries, as well as Harrys 2023 memoir "Spare."In the couples attempt to be financially independent in California, they signed a five-year $100 million deal with the streaming giant. Their five-part docuseries, "Harry & Meghan," detailed their struggles with royal life and offered an intimate look into their lives in California.A special holiday episode of "With Love, Meghan" will air in December.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSBut Meghan isnt the only royal thats been cooking up something for the streaming giant."King Charles is collaborating with actor Idris Elba on a yet-to-be-titled documentary about The Kings Trust, the charity he founded in 1976, for Netflix," Schofield pointed out."That makes it harder to fault Harry and Meghan for their own Netflix contracts. Of course, if the Sussexes continue producing negative content about the royal family, estrangement will persist. But if they avoid targeting the royals in future projects, its worth noting that the king is now working with the very same platform."While Meghan has been keeping busy bonding with celebrity chefs for the series, there have been loud whispers of a royal reconciliation.In May, Harry told the BBC he wanted to reconcile with his family, but his father wouldnt speak to him.His father, King Charles III, was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in February 2024."I would love reconciliation with my family," said the prince. "Theres no point in continuing to fight anymore. I dont know how much longer my father has."TheMail on Sunday reported that Harrys aides had a private meeting on July 9 with the kings communications secretary in London. Representatives for Buckingham Palace and the Duke andDuchess of Sussex did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment at the time.However, Schofield said that when it comes to the Sussexes holding back on more tell-alls, the damage is already done."I hate to sound pessimistic, but the damage is significant," said Schofield. "Harry and Meghan made already-challenging years even harder for the royal family. While Prince Philip lay in a hospital bed, they sat down with Oprah Winfrey and accused an unnamed royal of racism. Meghan also falsely suggested that her son was denied a title because of his skin color. The looming release of Spare and the Netflix series weighed heavily on the late queen in her final days Too much hurt has been caused.""If I were Prince Harry, I would apologize but accept that his old life is gone and cannot be reclaimed," Schofield added.Chard agreed, noting that even with the Sussexes launching projects that dont monetize their royal connections, "The Firm" remains cautious."The royal familys mistrust of Prince Harry and especially Meghan Markle runs very deep," Chard claimed. "They continue to be estranged from the royal family. Prince William, above everyone, knows his brother just too well and more than any other royal mistrusts Harry and Meghan Its a real rock and a hard place situation. The royal family refuses to feed the Sussexes with new royal material."MEGHAN MARKLE ADMITS SHE SOMETIMES MISSES ACTING AFTER QUITTING FOR ROYAL LIFE"If the rumors around a possible documentary about Diana, which might involve the Sussexes, are true, that would certainly cause concern," added royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams. "It would commemorate 30 years since she died, yes, but will it also show how Harry and Meghan have to monetize their royal connections to survive in Hollywood? Thats if its true, of course.""If the Sussexes truly want peace, they should cease monetizing anything destructive about the royal family on the small and large screen, and in print," he advised.And the royal family does have one hope for the Sussexes from afar, said Schofield."The hope is that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle do find financial success away from airing their grievances," she said. "The irritation lies in Meghans insistence on using her title commercially. Queen Elizabeth was firm that titles should not be tied to businesses, so this does little to soften the prospect of reconciliation.""[The couple] made it clear to the public that theyve held back," said Schofield. "Prince Harry admitted he cut significant passages from his memoir to protect his father and brother And sadly, Penguin Random House, Netflix and Spotify have made it clear secrets sell."

Democrats opened their summer meeting in Minnesota on Monday with calls for unity against President Donald Trump, even as internal divisions on a host of issues threaten to erupt."We are unified towards one single goal: to stop Donald Trump and put this country back on track," DNC Chair Ken Martin declared when he addressed the more than 400 elected party officials from all 50 states and seven territories, as the summer meeting kicked off in his home state of Minnesota.While Democrats appeared united in their drive to counter the sweeping and controversial moves by Trump during his first seven months back in the White House, divisions among the committee members may flare on Tuesday.DNC CHAIR DEMANDS DEMOCRATS STOP BRINGING A PENCIL TO A KNIFE FIGHT'That's when the war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas, and limiting dark money in presidential politics, will both be in the spotlight as the DNC's Resolutions Committee meets.Competing symbolic resolutions over the war in Gaza which was sparked by the horrific Oct. 7, 2023, sneak attack by Hamas on Israel will be voted on by the panel.CLICK HERE FOR THE LATEST FOX NEWS REPORTING ON THE ISRAEL-HAMAS WARNearly 1,200 people in Israel were killed during the initial surprise attack by Hamas, with over 250 people taken hostage. In the nearly two years since the attack, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's ongoing military response.The showdown over the resolutions comes as the Democratic Party's once nearly unshakable support for Israel has fractured amid the bloodshed. And concerns over the growing death toll among Palestinians by many in the party's progressive base have soared this spring and summer, amid famine in Gaza.Recent polling indicates support for Israel's continued military actions in Gaza is plummeting among Democrats.One resolution, which is supported by Martin, calls for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.The competing resolution calls for an arms embargo and suspension of U.S. military aid to Israel, which has long been the top American ally in the Middle East.The other resolution that's bound to generate spirited debate and grab headlines on Tuesday is Martin's push for the DNC to affirm its commitment to "eliminating unlimited corporate and dark money in our presidential nominating process beginning in the current 2028 cycle."While Democrats have long railed against the role of big money in politics, the resolution, which was first reported by the New York Times, calls for the creation of a new panel to propose by next summer "real, enforceable steps the D.N.C. can take to eliminate unlimited corporate and dark money in its 2028 presidential primary process."Outside groups such as super PACs, which are allowed to haul in unlimited contributions but are mandated to disclose their donors, have seen their influence in campaign politics multiply in recent election cycles.DNC CHAIR TELLS FOX NEWS PARTY HAS HIT ROCK BOTTOMDemocratic leaders and officials are gathering as the party tries to escape the political wilderness after last year's elections, when Democrats lost control of the White House and Senate and fell short in their bid to win back the House majority. And Republicans made gains in voter demographics that previously made up key parts of the Democratic Party's base.The situation has only worsened for Democrats in the 10 months since last year's election setbacks.The Democrats' brand is deeply unpopular, especially with younger voters, as the party's poll numbers continue to drop to all-time lows in national surveys.The DNC faces a massive fundraising deficit at the hands of the rival Republican National Committee (RNC) and voter data indicated Democratic Party registration was plunging while GOP sign-ups were on the rise in the 30 states that register voters by party.AMID PLUNGING POLLS, ANEMIC FUNDRAISING, DEMOCRATS LOOK TO REBOUND AT PARTY'S SUMMER MEETINGOn Monday, amid talk that Democrats remain divided over a slew of policy and political issue, Martin wasn't the only one preaching unity and downplaying any discord.Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, in an address to the committee members, said "there's a division in my damn house, and we're still married, and things are good. That's life We are strong because we challenge each other."And longtime Democratic strategist and DNC committee member Maria Cardona told Fox News, "I'm so sick of people focusing on the infighting and the circular firing squad. All of that is crap, when we have real issues, existential threats that we need to fight about, and we are all united on that front and that's all that matters."Martin, who was elected DNC chair in February, has weathered turmoil during his tenure so far, including a controversy sparked by now-former vice chair David Hogg's backing of primary challengers against older House Democrats in safe blue districts.RNC communications director Zach Parkinson, responding to Monday's DNC session, told Fox News that "under Ken Martins leadership, Democrats have sunk to their lowest approval rating in 35 years."Pointing to Martin, Parkinson said "as Republicans, we think he is doing a fantastic job, and we fully endorse him to stay on as DNC Chair."

Sheriff Grady Judd, a no-nonsense Florida sheriff known for his tough talking and showmanship, announced the takedown of a drug-trafficking gang by donning the ringleaders gold chain and bracelet during a press conference.The Polk County sheriff wore the jewelry to drive home what he called the deadly consequences of so-called "low-level" drug dealing. He also held up seized guns to underline his point that dealers are armed and dangerous."I got their drip. I got their money. We got their guns. We got their dope," Judd said Friday, unveiling the results of a yearlong investigation that led to the arrests of 32 suspects in Bartow.Judd identified Nathaniel "Nate" Donald, a repeat offender, as heading the network and said a member of his ring sold cocaine to 65-year-old Irene Anderson on a Saturday night last year. Anderson collapsed and died hours later as she was on her way to church.FLORIDA SHERIFF RIPS 'REPREHENSIBLE' LAKE BRAWL AFTER 8 ARRESTED"She was walking out of her house to church when she collapsed. So, she died so Nate could have this drip," Judd said. "Did you hear what I said? Hes buying this drip from selling drugs to people on the streets, one of which died."Judd said law enforcement carried out six wire intercepts and eight search warrants in Bartow last November, which uncovered $50,000 worth of jewelry.COCKY FUGITIVE'S SOCIAL MEDIA CHALLENGE TO SHERIFF BACKFIRES IN SPECTACULAR FASHION"But I want you to imagine this for a minute. People continue to tell you that drugs are low-level and nonviolent," Judd said. "Theyre anything but low-level and nonviolent. Where you see $50,000 in drip, where you see that not-so-dangerous drug of cannabis, you see guns and you see first-degree murder from overdose."Detectives identified Donald, Bryan "B" Myrick, and Isaiah "Bubba" Donald as key members of the network. Myrick, who was released from prison in 2021 for cocaine trafficking, now faces dozens of new counts, including conspiracy to sell cocaine and trafficking methamphetamine, fentanyl and MDMA.Troy Walker, supplied by Myrick, sold the cocaine to Anderson and has since been indicted for first-degree murder in her overdose death.In total, investigators seized thousands of grams of illegal drugs with a combined street value of $150,000. Arrests included suspects already on probation or pre-trial release, and several firearms were recovered from convicted felons. Detectives said the suspects combined criminal histories add up to 554 felonies and 394 misdemeanors.Judd said the only place for drug dealers is in prison, because when they are released they quickly reoffend often with deadly consequences."Theyre a menace to society. Theyve got to stay in prison, or people die," Judd said. "Whoever tells you that narcotics is low level and nonviolent theyre crazy."The investigation, dubbed "Operation Capital City Crack Down," began in August 2024. It was led by PCSOs Tactical Drug Unit, Organized Crime Unit and the HIDTA Task Force with support from the State Attorneys Office, Homeland Security Investigations, U.S. Border Patrol, FDLE, FBI, the Bartow Police Department, and other partners.

Former NFL star Robert Griffin III said Monday the Cleveland Browns need to trade either Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel and anoint one of the quarterbacks as the future of the franchise.Griffin, a former Browns quarterback himself, reacted to how the team used Sanders and Gabriel in the final preseason game of the season. Particularly, Griffin honed in on Sanders playing with teammates low on the depth chart and not getting a chance to run the two-minute drill in the fourth quarter. Cleveland used Tyler Huntley and released him a day later."I think the Cleveland Browns need to trade Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel," Griffin said on "Outta Pocket." "Right now, they have a toxic environment around their quarterback situation, and its not a growth environment for either guy. So right now, you need to allow Shedeur Sanders to be the guy that youre tabbing as your quarterback of the future, or you need to allow Dillon Gabriel to be the quarterback that youre tabbing as your quarterback of the future.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Because having them together on the roster right now, after you traded up to get Dillon Gabriel in the third round, you drafted Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round after he slid from the first round, which many people like myself believe he shouldve been a first-round quarterback because of the tape not just because of the name. Youve created an environment where theres so much fanfare around it that the most popular guy on your roster is the fourth-string quarterback on your team, because you made it that way. You didnt allow him to go out and compete like you would a third-round pick in Dillon Gabriel, because you had a third-round pick in Dillon Gabriel."Griffin said he didnt think Sanders nor Gabriel were being "set up for success" in the organization.The Browns selected Gabriel in the third round of the draft. The former Oregon Ducks star tied the mark for most touchdown passes in college football at the FBS level with 155.Cleveland took a flier on Sanders after he fell to the fifth round despite being projected to be one of the first players taken overall."I dont think that either Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel are being set up for success right now based on the way things are going," Griffin said. "This brings me to the point of the last preseason game, Dillon Gabriel played his butt off, absolutely, went out there, executed a two-minute drill to perfection. But Shedeur Sanders was not afforded the same opportunity. Not only was Shedeur Sanders put out there with threes, fours and fives on the depth chart, on the offensive line and at wide receiver, Shedeur Sanders was not allowed to run the two-minute drill at the end of the game because they gave that opportunity to (Tyler) Snoop Huntley. BENGALS' TREY HENDRICKSON AGREES TO REVISED CONTRACT WITH $14M RAISE FOR 2025 NFL SEASON"No matter how well he ran that two-minute drill, or how well he didnt, it wasnt going to impact his availability and whether or not he was going to make the 53-man roster. So why wouldnt you give Shedeur Sanders that opportunity to go out there and have it, juxtaposed against Dillon Gabriel running the two-minute drill at the end of the half, allowing Shedeur Sanders to go out there and fight through whatever struggles you thought he was having with lesser guys around him to go run the two-minute drill to win the game for your team. It wasnt just the wrong decision, it was a catastrophically terrible decision on behalf of Kevin Stefanski and the Cleveland Browns organization."Griffin said that, sure, Sanders comes with a "ton of fanfare" but it was "earned." He lamented being unable to see what Sanders could do with more teammates higher up on the depth chart."Shedeur Sanders comes with a ton of fanfare. But its earned. Its not just because of his dads name and what his dad accomplished being a Hall of Famer, the greatest cornerback of all time. Shedeur has been in the limelight since he was a baby. He earned what he got at Jackson State. He went the hard way, going to the HBCU and building that program up. He went the hard way, going to Colorado and building that program up. And then his tape said, Im a first-round pick on my own merit, not just because of my dads name. And he wasnt afforded that."He cant cry over that spilled milk anymore But now, when he goes out and he performs in the first preseason game and throws two touchdown passes and earns the right to get more reps, why didnt he get more reps? Why was he still relegated at the bottom of the depth chart? You can say we werent at the practices. We didnt get to see everything that was going on behind the scenes. But what I do know is that the eye in the sky dont lie So, for the Browns to not allow this young man to actually compete is a detriment to him, but its also a detriment to all the quarterbacks on their roster."Cleveland did make a trade later Monday but it didnt include Sanders or Gabriel.The Browns traded Kenny Pickett to the Las Vegas Raiders for a 2026 fifth-round draft pick. It appeared Cleveland will keep both Sanders and Gabriel on the roster to be the backups for veteran Joe Flacco.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis pushed back against claims on Monday that the state banned Anne Frank's famous World War II-era diary, noting it's actually on the state's recommended reading list.DeSantis responded to a Democratic California state lawmaker who claimed that "The Diary of Anne Frank" was banned in the state."This is not the first time a leftist has accused Florida of banning a book that is on the states recommended reading list," DeSantis wrote on X. "Another lie debunked."DESANTIS FIRES BACK AFTER DEM DECRIES FLORIDA'S MOVE TO DITCH LGBT RAINBOW COLORS FROM CROSSWALK IN ORLANDODeSantis was responding to California Democratic state senator, Scott Wiener, who posted an article published by The Guardian that stated that the Sunshine State"had the highest rate of book bans nationwide" in 2025. The outlet claimed the "Diary of Anne Frank" was pulled from school's library shelves."Florida banning the Diary of Anne Frank tells you everything you need to know about the MAGA movement," Wiener posted on X, while sharing the article.The post was flagged by community notes on X, which noted that the book is"part of the 8th-grade curriculum of the Florida Department of Education."Wiener's office countered that he was referring to when a graphic version of the book was pulled from shelves in Florida."Senator Wieners tweet refers to the well-documented incident of the Hillsborough School District removing the Diary of Anne Frank, along with over 600 other titles, from library shelves in response to an aggressive crackdown from the state Department of Education. At least 9 school districts in Florida have removed books like the Diary of Anne Frank from bookshelves because the state is empowering far-right activists like Moms For Liberty to go after any schools that dont go along with their extremist MAGA agenda," Wiener's office told Fox News Digital.AUTHORS BLAST 'HARMFUL' SCOTUS RULING ALLOWING PARENTS TO OPT KIDS OUT OF READING THEIR LGBTQ+ BOOKSHillsborough County School Districtwas reportedly threatened with legal action by the Florida State Board of Education in May if Hillsborough officials did not remove "pornographic" titles from their library, resulting in more than600 books being pulled.Among the books that were taken off the school shelves were"The Diary of Anne Frank" and "What Girls Are Made of" by Elana K Arnold."None of them were under formal review by the district, and they hadnt been flagged by local parents as potentially inappropriate. Parents with children in the school system even had the opportunity to opt their children out of a particular reading, without removing them from the class for everyone," the Guardian reported.DeSantis' "Parental Rights in Education Act," which is dubbed by critics as the "Dont Say Gay" law, prohibited school employees or third parties from giving classroom instruction on "sexual orientation" or "gender identity" to K-12 students.DeSantis' office and Hillsborough County School District officials didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

Cannabis gummies have grown in popularity in recent years, as more people turn to them to relieve pain, inflammation, anxiety and sleep issues, among other uses.There is also a growing concern, however, about the THC-containing gummies getting into childrens hands and mouths.Reports of cannabis poisoning among children soared from 930 in 2009 to more than 22,000 in 2024 and last year, more than 75% of all cannabis poisonings involved minors, according to Americas Poison Centers.HERE'S WHAT MARIJUANA REALLY DOES TO THE DEVELOPING BRAIN, ACCORDING TO A PSYCHIATRISTMelissa Johnson, a licensed clinical social worker and the senior clinical director at Victory Starts Now in Los Angeles, said she is not surprised by the uptick in gummy cannabis poisonings among children."Companies are advertising gummy cannabis the same way they would sell candy to children," she told Fox News Digital.Dr. Darria Long, M.D., an emergency physician in Atlanta, Georgia, and a member of the BabyCenter Medical Advisory Board, confirmed that shes aware of multiple children per week seeking medical attention for this issue."Gummies are particularly dangerous because kids don't just eat one they can eat an entire bag," she told Fox News Digital. "So theyre ingesting somewhere around 10 adult servings in the body of a 30-pound child."Long said she has seen instances where someone bought cannabis gummies and unintentionally gave them to a child, not realizing they contained THC."Some parents think, but its natural, it can't be dangerous, or its just a little pot, it can't be dangerous."A child who has consumed cannabis gummies could come in lethargic or not breathing, and may have experienced seizures, Long told Fox News Digital.In many cases, the childs heart rate drops, and they may even go into cardiac arrest and require CPR.Treatment for gummy overdoses depends on how severe the situation is, according to Long."Sometimes children need to be intubated and put on a respiratory machine, and sometimes they need electrical pacing of their heart because their heart rate is too slow," she said.They may also need IV medication, including epinephrine to keep them from going into cardiac arrest or other drugs to stop seizure activity.CANNABIS USE RAISES RISK OF HEART ATTACK AND STROKE MORE THAN COCAINE, OTHER DRUGS, MAJOR REVIEW SUGGESTSIn severe cases, cannabis gummy poisoning can cause coma, death or long-term side effects, including problems with memory, attention and problem-solving skills, experts agree."Especially if they have periods during which their brain is not getting enough oxygen, they could have hypoxic brain injury, among other potential complications," Long warned.Dr. Margret Chang, a pediatrician at UMass Memorial Healths Tri-River Family Health Center in Uxbridge, Massachusetts, said it would be "highly unlikely" for these severe effects to develop in a child after just one exposure, as long as they get appropriate medical monitoring and care."However, if a child were to come in contact with a cannabis gummy from an illicit source that just happened to contain fentanyl or cocaine, the consequences of consuming that gummy would be far more deadly, and the long-term effects far more powerful," she told Fox News Digital.MORE SENIORS ARE USING CANNABIS THAN EVER BEFORE DESPITE HEALTH RISKS, RESEARCH SHOWSTHC can stay in a child's system much longer than an adults, experts agree."It depends on what they have taken and how large a quantity was ingested, but Im aware of cases where children took 24 to 36 hours or more just to become stable," Long said.Parents should watch out for symptoms such as sedation, difficulty breathing and confusion, Johnson advised."Parents should make sure to educate themselves on signs that their child may have ingested THC, so care can be administered as soon as possible," she said. "If you think your child has ingested THC, get them to the nearest hospital or call 911 for immediate care."To keep children safe from toxic ingestion, experts agree that its best not to keep THC-containing products in the home."If you do keep these in the home, they need to be treated the exact same way you would treat all prescription medications, which could be life-threatening if a child ingests them," Long said."That would include using a baby-proof or child-proof container, and keeping them out of reach and out of sight."She added, "If parents do use these types of products, they should avoid having them in forms that are at all tempting to children, like gummies, candy, brownies or cookies."People should only use sources of cannabis gummies that come from registered dispensaries, Chang added."Failure to do so can lead to the acquisition of cannabis supplies that are contaminated with illicit substances such as fentanyl, cocaine and benzodiazepenes, which are added to products to make them more appealing to consumers."Riana Durrett, director of the Cannabis Policy Institute at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, said that while its "chilling" to hear stories about children seeking medical attention for cannabis gummy poisoning, "it doesn't seem like the whole story."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER"Data is showing that youth use is going down in states where cannabis legalization is occurring cannabis legalization is occurring so in order to properly react and address increases in accidental consumption, I think we need to know more about where the product is coming from and why it wasn't kept away from a child," she told Fox News Digital."For example, if it is a product from an unlicensed source (which is likely if it is marked kid-friendly), then turning our attention to the licensed cannabis industry fails to address the actual problem and would fail to increase protections for children."For more Health articles, visitwww.foxnews.com/healthAccording to Durrett, connecting these incidents of child poisonings with cannabis legalization seems like an "insufficient explanation.""I think more details about the source of the products and how the child accessed the product would be helpful in identifying more effective responses or policy changes," she added.

As some Democrats mock President Donald Trump for signing an executive order cracking down on burning the American flag, a clip has resurfaced of then-New York Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton calling for a very similar prohibition against flag desecration.In a resurfaced clip from 2006, Clinton took to the Senate floor to advocate on behalf of a bill titled the "Flag Protection Act" that she said would make it a crime to desecrate the American flag.Addressing the Senate president, Clinton said, "I hope, Mr. President, that we can pass a law that criminalizes flag burning and desecration."TRUMP FLAG-BURNING EXECUTIVE ORDER COULD FLIP FIRST AMENDMENT ON ITS HEAD WITH NEW COURTClinton said, "I agree wholeheartedly that maliciously burning or destroying an American flag is a deeply offensive and despicable act," adding that it "disrespects our nation, it belittles the sacrifices of our brave veterans, it even sends a message to the soldiers who fight today protecting our freedom that their service is in some way to be disrespected and discounted."She drew a comparison to the 2003 Supreme Court case Virginia v. Black that clarified the burning of crosses with intent to intimidate is a crime."Now burning a flag to me is also despicable and I believe that there is no denying when we talk about our flag, Americans emotions run deep, and we know that when we look at the flag, and its deliberately maliciously destroyed that is an intimidating experience in many instances," she said, adding, "I agree that this flag burning, this desecration, that can happen to our flag, is something that people have a right to ask this body to try to prohibit and prevent."NEW RESISTANCE BATTLING TRUMP'S SECOND TERM THROUGH ONSLAUGHT OF LAWSUITS TAKING AIM AT EOSOn Monday, Trump signed an executive order to combat the desecration of the flag by mandating one full year in jail for protesters who burn American flags.The order directed U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to "prioritize the enforcement to the fullest extent possible of our Nations criminal and civil laws against acts of American Flag desecration."The order also authorized the attorney general "to the maximum extent permitted by the Constitution" to "vigorously prosecute those who violate our laws in ways that involve desecrating the American Flag, and may pursue litigation to clarify the scope of the First Amendment exceptions in this area."TRUMPS FLAG-BURNING ORDER DRAWS RARE FIRE FROM CONSERVATIVESThe order further directed Bondi, the Department of Homeland Security and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to "deny, prohibit, terminate, or revoke visas, residence permits, naturalization proceedings, and other immigration benefits, or seek removal from the United States whenever there has been an appropriate determination that foreign nationals have engaged in American Flag-desecration activity."
