Canadian authorities intercepted a U-Haul truck packed with 44 migrants near the Vermont border on Aug. 3, as human smuggling networks grow in sophistication along the United States' northern frontier.That case, now under investigation as a suspected human trafficking operation, captures a dangerous shift in smuggling routes as pressure mounts along the southern border.Immigration attorney and former Connecticut Senate candidate Peter Lumaj, who has practiced immigration law for decades, told Fox News Digital that smugglers are constantly adapting to changes in U.S. enforcement."The smugglers are very sophisticated. They are able to read whats happening in a certain country, whether its the United States, Canada, or Mexico," he said.YOUNGKIN CREDITS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION WITH BOLSTERING ANTI-HUMAN TRAFFICKING EFFORTSSmuggling along the northern border is not new, but the direction of movement has changed. Lumaj noted that while the flow used to be largely from Canada into the U.S., in recent years there has also been a surge of migrants attempting to cross into Canada from the U.S. to avoid deportation to their home countries.Another factor complicating enforcement is state and local sanctuary policies. Lumaj pointed to his home state of Connecticut, where officials recently expanded protections for illegal immigrants."There are almost 1,200 detainees in Connecticut right now whose holds are not being respected by state leaders," he said. "That violates federal law and the Constitutions supremacy clause. When states reward illegal immigration with drivers licenses, in-state tuition, and sanctuary protections, it entices more migrants to come."Lumaj warned that such policies not only undermine federal law enforcement but also create "shopping grounds" for migrants seeking the most favorable environments after crossing the border."Every state has become a border state," he said. "When millions come in, theyre going to look for where they get the greatest benefits. The smugglers know this, the traffickers know this, and theyre taking advantage of the chaos."ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS STORM US BEACHES AS COAST GUARD BATTLES MIGRANT SURGE THAT ROSE UNDER BIDENAccording to Lumaj, smuggling rings often target single men, typically aged 18 to 35, who can physically endure the treacherous crossings."I have personally handled cases where people were abandoned in the middle of nowhere, on the verge of losing their lives, before they stumbled into Border Patrol officers begging for help," Lumaj said. "Smugglers have no mercy. Its about money."Smuggling groups have tapped into GPS tracking and social media channels to coordinate routes to evade border patrols. As Fox News Digital has previously reported, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook have all been used to lure desperate migrants with promises of safe passage.The difference between smuggling and trafficking, Lumaj said, is exploitation."Usually, people who want to be smuggled into the United States or Canada, they approach the smuggler, whereas traffickers are very good at sort of identifying the person that they want to traffic," he said.Lumaj described cases where underage girls were promised jobs as babysitters, au pairs or models, only to end up trapped in coercive sex trafficking rings."As a father, I can identify with that," he said. "Its heartbreaking, but yes, it exists, and it is out there. And I dont think we should have any mercy on these traffickers that are taking advantage of these young girls."Fox News Digital has reached out to the Department of Homeland Security for comment.

Emma Heming Willis is opening up about her husband Bruce Willis' health.On the ABC special "Emma & Bruce Willis: The Unexpected Journey," Emma sat down with Diane Sawyer to detail Bruce's last few years since he was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.Emma told Sawyer that remembering Bruce's initial diagnosis has been hard for her."Its really gray for me where Bruces disease started to come in. He always loved taking the girls to school and then those school runs just started to not happen as much, and I thought that is so weird," she said. Emma wouldnt say anything to her husband and opted to "just step in and do it" instead.BRUCE WILLIS' WIFE FELT 'LOST AND ISOLATED' CARING FOR HIM AFTER DEVASTATING DEMENTIA DIAGNOSISThe actor's wife first noticed signs of his health decline long before his diagnosis. Emma noticed the "alarming" warning signs when Bruce's "warm" personality began to change, and he started skipping family events."For someone who is very talkative and very engaged, he was just a little more quiet. When the family would get together, he would kind of just melt a little bit," she told Sawyer."It felt a little removed, very cold, not like Bruce, who was very warm and affectionate," she continued. "To [go] the complete opposite of that was alarming and scary."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSShe initially questioned if Bruce's health decline was due to partially losing his hearing while making "Die Hard" when he "wasnt wearing protective ear covering. He was firing one of these guns underneath a table. And, it blew out a big percentage of his hearing," Emma said.She thought maybe they were having some miscommunication because he wasn't hearing what she was saying.Emma shared that in the early stages of Bruce's disease, she "didnt understand what was happening" and wondered how she could "remain in a marriage that doesnt feel like what we had. It doesnt feel like a marriage anymore."She said she had those conversations with him, asking him "are you OK?" and he dismissed it. "It just got very bumpy and very confusing," Emma told Sawyer.In March 2022, it was announced that Willis would be "stepping away" from his acting career due to an aphasia diagnosis. It was later announced that he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, also known as FTD.FTD is "the result of damage to neurons in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain," according to the National Institute on Aging. "Many possible symptoms can result, including unusual behaviors, emotional problems, trouble communicating, difficulty with work, or difficulty with walking."Emma recalled the moment doctors informed her there was no cure for Bruce's disease."To leave there with nothing, just noting, a diagnosis I couldnt pronounce, I didnt understand what it was I was so panicked. And just hearing it and not hearing anything else, it was like I was free-falling," Emma said.When Sawyer asked if there are days when she sees him as he used to be, she said, "We get moments. It's his laugh, right? Like, he has such, like, a hearty laugh. And, you know, sometimes you'll see that twinkle in his eye, or that smirk, and, you know, I just get, like, transported. And it's just hard to see, because as quickly as those moments appear, then it goes. It's hard. But I'm grateful. I'm grateful that my husband is still very much here."Emma will release her book,"The Unexpected Journey: Finding Strength, Hope, and Yourself on the Caregiving Path," this September. She told Sawyer the book is dedicated to Bruce and their two daughters.During the interview, Emma read the dedication in the book to Bruce, and fought back tears while speaking to Sawyer."To Bruce, the heart of my travels, the echo to my footsteps, I love that endures beyond every bend in the road. Your spirit is my constant companion. And for every care partner navigating this unexpected journey may you find solace in knowing you are not alone and hope in the moments that remind you to put one foot in front of the other. This book is for you," she read.Emma told Sawyer she informed her two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn, early-on about their father's diagnosis. She noted to Sawyer that he is seemingly unaware of his condition."Bruce is still very mobile, Bruce is in great health overall, its just his brain that is failing him," Emma stated. She feels that he recognizes her still though."I know he does," Emma shared. "When we are with him he lights up. Right? Hes holding our hands. Were kissing him, were hugging him. He is reciprocating. You know, he is into it and so thats all I need. I dont need him to know I am his wife. We were married on this day and this is what it I dont need any of that. I just want to feel that I have a connection with him and I do."One of "the hardest decisions" Emma had to make was buying a one-story home next to hers for Bruce to live in with professional caregivers. She told Sawyer that she visits him in the morning and at night."I knew first and foremost Bruce would want that for our daughters. He would want them to be in a home that was more tailored to their needs, not his needs. Were there a lot. Its our second home, so [the] girls have their things there. It is a house that is filled with love and warmth and care and laughter, and its been beautiful to see that. To see how many of Bruces friends continue to show up for him and they bring in life and fun," Emma said.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERBruce married Emma at their home in Turks and Caicos in March 2009, and they have two daughters. The actor was previously married to Demi Moore for 12 years, and the friendly exes have three daughters together: Rumer, Scout and Tallulah.The final question Sawyer asked Emma was what she would like to ask Bruce if he was able to understand the situation they are in."Just how hes doing. If hes OK, if he feels OK. If theres anything that we could do to support him better. I would really love to know that. If hes scared, if hes ever worried. I just would love to be able to just have a conversation with him," Emma said.Fox News Digital's Christina Dugan Ramirez contributed to this report

A Chinese doctor was busted in Texas for allegedly trying to smuggle cancer-related research back to China.Yunhai Li a 35-year-old employed by the MD Anderson Cancer Center since 2022 was confronted at an airport by officers from U.S. Customs and Border Protection on July 9, according to the Harris County District Attorneys Office.The office said the authorities working in coordination with Homeland Security Investigations "found evidence Li was attempting to take sensitive medical information abroad during an inspection of his belongings.""We were able to detain him as he was trying to get on a flight to China," Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare told Fox26 Houston. "That intellectual property stays with us, so we can save lives."ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CHINESE NATIONAL TRIED STEALING SENSITIVE AI MICROCHIPS, DOJ SAYSLi was charged with Theft of Trade Secrets and Tampering with a Government Record. The theft charge carries a penalty of two to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.The Attorneys Office said Li was staying in the U.S. on a nonimmigrant research scholar exchange visa provided by the State Department. The research he was working on was funded through the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Defense, it added.Court documents viewed by Fox26Houston said Li uploaded sensitive data to his personal Google Drive account while working for MD Anderson, and when the institution found out about it and confronted him, he deleted the files.However, the documents added that Li also uploaded the data to a file-hosting service based on a Chinese server.CHINESE CITIZEN ADMITS STEALING US TRADE SECRETS FOR NEXT-GENERATION NATIONAL SECURITY TECHOn that storage drive, investigators found "unpublished research data and articles representing trade secrets, including material-restricted confidential research data, writings, drawings and models," according to Fox26 Houston.The station, citing the court documents, also reported that Li was receiving grant funding through the National Natural Science Foundation of China and was performing research for The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University before and during his employment with MD Anderson yet did not disclose the conflict of interest to his U.S. employers."I believe I have the right to possess and retain this data," Li was quoted by Fox26 Houston as sayingin a sworn statement contained in the court documents.Li has since posted $5,100 bail and bonded out of jail on Monday, surrendering his passport, the station reported.

While it is still uncertain whether President Donald Trump's dismissal of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, who is preparing a legal challenge, will succeed, her potential departure gives him another chance to install a nominee more attuned to his monetary priorities.The Federal Reserve Board of Governors, commonly known as the Fed board, is composed of seven members, or governors, who are nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate.TRUMP SAYS HES ALWAYS READY FOR LEGAL FIGHT AS OUSTED FED GOVERNOR PLANS LAWSUITIf Trump replaces Cook, he would have named the majority of the Fed's governors, strengthening his influence over the panel that guides U.S. monetary policy.Former President Joe Biden appointed Philip Jefferson, Michael Barr and Cook to the Fed board in 2022. Trump's picks include Michelle Bowman in 2018, Christopher Waller in 2020 and Stephen Miran in 2025.Former President Barack Obama nominated Jerome Powell to the Fed board in 2012, Trump nominated Powell to his current role as Chairman of the Federal Reserve in 2017, and Biden reappointed Powell in 2022.TRUMP NAMES REPLACEMENT FOR FED SEAT; STILL LOOKING FOR PERMANENT APPOINTEEWhen asked about replacing Cook, Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that he has some "very good people for that position.""Well have a majority very shortly," Trump said. "So thatll be great."Tensions between Trump and the Federal Reserve over monetary policy have intensified in recent months. Trump has placed the blame squarely on Chairman Jerome Powell for not lowering the federal funds target rate, which he says could save the nation "hundreds of billions of dollars."Meanwhile, Powell has kept the central banks key borrowing rate target within a range of 4.25% to 4.5%, maintaining a measured, wait-and-see approach as officials gauge the economic effects of Trumps tariffs.A LOOK AT THE UNFOLDING BATTLE BETWEEN TRUMP AND POWELL OVER FED POLICYCook's ascension marked a historic first, as she became the first Black woman to serve as a governor on the Fed board. Now, her potential removal from that same role could mark another historic first.As it stands, Trump says Cook is fired, effective immediately. But Cook and her lawyer, Abbe Lowell, argue that Trump has no legal authority to remove her. Her term on the Fed board runs until January 2038.The Federal Reserve acknowledged Cook's potential legal action and said in a Tuesday statement that the U.S. central bank will "abide by any court decision.""Lisa Cook has indicated through her personal attorney that she will promptly challenge this action in court and seek a judicial decision that would confirm her ability to continue to fulfill her responsibilities as a Senate-confirmed member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System," a Federal Reserve spokesperson wrote in a statement to Fox News Digital.

The CEO of a biotechnology company is suing rideshare giant Uber, claiming he was attacked by one of its drivers and left with a brain injury.Bryan Kobel, CEO of TC BioPharm, said the attack happened after a dispute with a South Carolina driver in April. Kobel explained the conversation started as "innocuous," but quickly escalated when the driver knocked him unconscious."I was shocked. Uber is a $200 billion company. When you get in a car with the Uber sticker on it, it carries that brand weight. It carries the trust that you have in that brand," Kobel explained Tuesday on "Americas Newsroom."Kobel said he was stunned by the companys response.BIOTECH CEO SUES UBER AFTER ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT DRIVER ASSAULT CAUGHT ON CAMERA IN DOWNTOWN CHARLESTON, SC"In fact, he picks up an Uber ride about two minutes later after leaving me for dead," Kobel said, noting that he contacted the company with hospital records, a police report and photographs of his injuries."About 48 to 72 hours later, Uber just deactivated my account."Kobel argues that Uber has failed to properly vet its drivers and has avoided taking accountability for what happened to him."You would have assumed, and I had up until that date, that they [Uber] do background checks. They vet these individuals. That they've got a stringent process that's difficult to evade, and apparently that's not the case."The driver has been identified as Vadim Uliumdzhiev, 42, a Russian national who illegally entered the U.S., according to the Department of Homeland Security.After the attack, he was arrested and charged with second-degree assault and battery, then released on $10,000 bond.

New bodycam footage has been released showing illegal immigrant truck driver Harjinder Singh struggling with limited English after he was pulled over by police for speeding in New Mexico last month - a detail that has since become a major talking point in the case.The footage shows Singh the suspect accused of jackknifing his 18-wheeler while making an illegal U-turn in Florida that killed three people being stopped by a New Mexico State Police officer on July 3 for allegedly driving 60 mph in a 45-mph zone.During the interaction, Singh appears apologetic as he receives a ticket from the trooper. He initially communicates without issue until after signing paperwork and preparing to leave, when the officer struggles to understand what the trucker is saying.TRUMP ADMIN THREATENS TO CUT MILLIONS IN FEDERAL FUNDING FROM 3 STATES OVER TRUCKER ENGLISH LANGUAGE RULES"Whats that," the trooper says, before Singh speaks again."Im sorry, I guess I dont understand what youre saying," the trooper replies."Maybe in this, this my ticket, on my license, how many years," Singh says to the officer in broken English.The officer then appears to understand the question and explains to Singh that he thinks the ticket will remain on his license for five to seven years,Singhs limited English has drawn sharp scrutiny since the Department of Transportation(DOT) said he failed an English Language Proficiency (ELP) assessment following the deadly crash inFort Pierce, Florida. The DOT said that Singh provided the correct responses to just 2 of 12 verbal questions and only accurately identified 1 of 4 highway traffic signs, raising questions as to how and why he was driving a commercial truck in the first place.Additionally, during the July 3 stop, Singh was not subjected to an English language proficiency test, which the DOT said was required by law beginning on June 25. State police or highway patrol officersare required to carry out such checks during routine roadside inspections."A driver who cant understand English will not drive a commercial vehicle in this country. Period,"Transportation Secretary Sean Duffysaid in May while announcing the new enforcement guidelines.FLORIDA AG ANNOUNCES PROBE OF SANCTUARY JURISDICTIONS THAT GIVE TRUCKING LICENSES TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTSOn Tuesday, New Mexico State Police Chief Troy Weisler pushed back on claims by Transportation Secretary SeanDuffy that the state was not properly enforcing the new English language requirements.Weisler said federal officials had mischaracterized New Mexicos Commercial Drivers License policy and compliance with the law, noting that while general guidelines were issued on June 25, no standardized testing procedure was provided."When State Police sought clarification, the response received was simply, You know when somebody doesnt speak English," Weisler said, adding that New Mexico developed its own compliance process and trained officers to apply it consistently.Weisler also argued that New Mexico had kept federal regulators informed with updates in late July and mid-August before the Florida crash occurred.Regarding Singhs July 3 stop, Weisler said an ELP test would not have been triggered even if the new rules had already been in effect."Both the Federal guidelines and todays statements by the U.S. Department of Transportation make clear that ELP assessments are only required when there is a challenge in communication," Weisler said."As the video of the traffic stop demonstrates, there were no communication issues between Mr. Singh and the officer. Therefore, there would have been no reason to initiate an ELP assessment."Singh, who crossed into the United Statesillegally in 2018via the southern border, has been charged with three counts of vehicular homicide and was extradited to Florida to face charges after traveling to California in the aftermath of the crash.According to the DOT, Singh was issued a regular full-term commercial drivers license in the state of Washington in July 2023, but illegal immigrants are not allowed to obtain this type of license.A year later, Singh was issued a limited-term/non-domiciled commercial driver's license in California. The DOT is investigating further whether the issuance of that license followed federal regulations.Fox News' Peter D'Abrosca contributed to this report.

The "carnivore baby" diet has divided social media for weeks and a new Reddit post shows it's causing tension in at least one family.In a post on the popular r/BeyondtheBump forum, a new mother wrote that her 6-month-old baby had just started eating solid foods."It has been so lovely so far and he loves it," the mom wrote.

Taylor Swift found "the one" in NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce."Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married," Swift shared Tuesday on Instagram.The global pop star is finally able to close out her dating playbook after finding her husband in Kelce.

"Then, the pandemic hit, and they were locked down together and able to continue growing their relationship in this insulated way. But he didn't really 'know' her yet outside of that bubble."Alwyn reportedly struggled "with Taylor's level of fame and the attention from the public."

A new AP-NORC poll released Wednesday shows that the vast majority of Americans see crime as a huge issue in the United States, and approve of President Donald Trump's handling of it.The poll showed that 81% of Americans agree that crime is a "major issue," including 96% of Republicans and 68% of Democrats, and 72% of Independents say the same.Further, 53% of Americans approve of the methods by which Trump is combating crime.TRUMP CLAIMS 'WE'RE AGAINST CRIME. DEMOCRATS LIKE CRIME'About half of White and Hispanic Americans approve of the way Trump is handling crime, while only 27% of Black Americans approve, according to the poll.The poll interviewed 1,182 American adults and was conducted between Aug. 21-25, about two weeks after Trump's federalization of the Metro Police Department in Washington, D.C.Trump called in the National Guard, and federal law enforcement entities, including the FBI, ATF and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), swarmed the capital. The city went 12 days without a homicide, and as of Wednesday, 1173 arrests have been made as part of the new policing strategy, according to an X post from Attorney General Pam Bondi.Upon announcing the new policy on Aug. 11, he said criminals in the city are not afraid of the police because "nothing ever happens to them.""The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs," Trump wrote on Truth Social. " Perhaps it should have been done a long time ago, then this incredible young man, and so many others, would not have had to go through the horrors of Violent Crime. If this continues, I am going to exert my powers, and FEDERALIZE this City. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
