Phishing scams are getting smarter, and one of the latest tricks involves fake DocuSign emails that appear to show charges from major companies like Apple. At first glance, these fraud messages look convincing, often including a receipt, order ID and even a support number. But instead of connecting you to Apple or another legitimate service, that number links you directly to scammers.Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security alerts, and exclusive deals delivered straight to your inbox.

They typically claim that a subscription has been charged to your account and prompt you to call a phone number if you do not recognize the charge.The emails often use well-known brands such as Apple, Netflix, Expedia, or even lawn service companies to make them seem credible. Some also include a "DocuSign" link with a security code, creating the illusion that you need to access a file to confirm the transaction.In reality, neither Apple nor these other companies sends billing receipts through DocuSign. That detail alone is a red flag. Another telltale sign is the sender's address. It may contain odd characters, such as a Cyrillic "B" replacing the "B" in "Billing," which helps scammers bypass spam filters.AMAZON ALERTS CUSTOMERS ABOUT IMPERSONATION SCAMSThe scam aims to catch you off guard and pressure you into acting fast. The email claims your Apple Pay account has been charged for a subscription or purchase. It includes an order ID, a charge amount, and a DocuSign link that supposedly holds a receipt or confirmation file. To make it look even more convincing, some versions add a security code to "unlock" the document.The message also lists a phone number and urges you to call if the charge was not authorized. That number is the core of the scam. Instead of reaching Apple, Netflix or whichever company the email pretends to represent, you end up speaking with a scammer posing as a support agent.Once you're on the call, the scammer tries to convince you that your account has been compromised or that the payment must be reversed right away. From there, the tactics vary. They might ask for your Apple ID, banking details, or card numbers. They may pressure you to download remote access software so they can "fix" the issue on your device. In some cases, they demand payment for fake account protection or reversal fees.The end goal is always the same: gain enough access to lock you out of your accounts, steal sensitive data, or initiate fraudulent transactions. What makes these scams dangerous is how they combine multiple red flags in one message: a realistic-looking receipt, official logos, a DocuSign link, urgent language, and a phone number that appears to be the quickest way to resolve the issue.HOW TO TELL IF A LOGIN ALERT IS REAL OR A SCAMScammers rely on people reacting quickly without questioning the details. The good news is that there are simple steps you can take to protect yourself. Here are five practical ways to stay safe.Scammers often use email addresses that look close to official ones but contain subtle differences, such as extra letters or swapped characters. If the email does not come from an official domain like @apple.com, it is not legitimate.Apple, Netflix, and other major services do not send billing statements through DocuSign. If a receipt shows up in this format, you can safely assume it is a scam. Real receipts always come directly from the service provider itself.Be cautious with any links in suspicious emails. Scammers often mask harmful links behind text that looks legitimate, such as "View Document" or "Review Payment." Hover over the link without clicking to see the real web address. If it does not match the official company domain, do not click.The best way to safeguard yourself from malicious links is to have strong antivirus software installed on all your devices. This protection can also alert you to phishing emails and ransomware scams, keeping your personal information and digital assets safe.Get my picks for the best 2025 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android & iOS devices at CyberGuy.com.Instead of trusting the email, confirm whether a charge actually exists. Apple users can review purchases directly from the Settings app under their Apple ID. If nothing shows up, the receipt is fake. Other services have similar ways to check history.The less information scammers can find about you online, the harder it is for them to craft convincing attacks. Consider removing old accounts you no longer use, limit the personal details you share publicly on social media, and use data removal services when possible. This reduces the risk of your name, email, or phone number being targeted in scams like this.While no service can guarantee the complete removal of your data from the internet, a data removal service is really a smart choice. They arent cheap, and neither is your privacy.These services do all the work for you by actively monitoring and systematically erasing your personal information from hundreds of websites. Its what gives me peace of mind and has proven to be the most effective way to erase your personal data from the internet. By limiting the information available, you reduce the risk of scammers cross-referencing data from breaches with information they might find on the dark web, making it harder for them to target you.Check out my top picks for data removal services and get a free scan to find out if your personal information is already out on the web by visiting Cyberguy.com.Get a free scan to find out if your personal information is already out on the web: Cyberguy.com.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPPhishing scams are constantly evolving, and the DocuSign Apple Pay ruse is just one of many. The best defense is a healthy dose of skepticism. If something feels off, stop, double-check, and confirm directly through official channels. Scammers rely on panic and quick reactions. By slowing down and verifying details, you can protect yourself from falling into their trap.Should email providers step up their filters so fewer of these messages slip through?

Comedy has been in steady decline on the big screen. A useful snapshot came in January 2016, when Ridley Scott's "The Martian" won Best Comedy at the Golden Globes. Where have all the laugh-out-loud movies gone? The "Anchormans," the "Superbads" the "Bridesmaids"? They were replaced by dramas with mild comic relief, or dramedies with humorous moments that are weighed down by heavy themes and social/political overtones. Why can't a movie exist for the sake of being funny?I'm happy to report that we may finally be turning the corner in 2025 as comedies attempt a comeback. Several films this year have actually sparked laughter, a sound that's long been absent from theaters, like A24's "Friendship," Paramount's "Naked Gun" reboot and Disney's "Freakier Friday."Thankfully, we can add another to the list: Neon's "Splitsville."HOLLYWOOD'S PROGRESSIVE SNOWFLAKE ERA IS OVER WITH SHOWS NOW HOT, HORNY AND WHITE, NYT GUEST ESSAY SAYS"Splitsville" begins, as the title suggests, with a split. Good-hearted but naive gym teacher Carey (Kyle Marvin) is devastated by the admission from his bombshell wife Ashley (Adria Arjona) that she not only wants a divorce after just a year or so of marriage, but that she has also been unfaithful. She hesitates to fess up how many times she's cheated when asked.Carey seeks support from his uber-confident best friend Paul (Michael Angelo Covino) and his wife Julie (Dakota Johnson), who he and Ashley were on their way to see at Paul's luxurious beach house. Paul and Julie reveal to Carey that they have an open marriage, arguing that mutual infidelity keeps their relationship intact. But things quickly unravel after Carey and Julie sleep together, putting Paul in a fit of rage and leading to one of the funniest, most well-choreographed fight scenes in recent memory (yes, it involves a "fish slap").The relationship web gets further tangled when Carey introduces the open marriage concept to Ashley, putting Carey in an uncomfortable living situation as Ashley flaunts lover after lover, all of whom Carey befriends. And everything comes to a head at Paul and Julie's son's climactic, anxiety-inducing birthday party.HAPPY GILMORE 2 STAR ADAM SANDLER'S ONE CRUCIAL RULE FOR HIS DAUGHTERS NAVIGATING HOLLYWOODCovino and Marvin have tremendous chemistry, in part because they're creative partners (they produced and co-wrote "Splitsville," Covino directed). It's their second collaboration following 2020's "The Climb," their fantastic feature debut that was unfortunately released to mostly-empty theaters during the height of COVID.Their talents translate both off and on screen. Marvin charms as the lovable loser Carey, and he truly bears it all; by that I mean with full-frontal nudity. Covino, meanwhile, balances Pauls arrogance with moments of vulnerability, particularly as his life starts falling apart.DAVE CHAPPELLE SAYS HE'S BEEN SNUBBED BY HOLLYWOOD AWARDS SHOWS FOLLOWING TRANS JOKESJohnson and Arjona rarely get to showcase their comedic chops, which are maximized in "Splitsville" by Covino and Marvin's punchy screenplay. Johnson, in particular, looks like she's having more fun in this meaty role (an attentive mother with sexual prowess who's resentful that her husband gets to sleep around as he claims he's "working" in Manhattan) versus her other roles, most recently in Celine Song's decent-but-rather-bland "Materialists."The scene-stealers, however, go to Ashley's rotation of one-night stands and boyfriends, including Nicholas Braun (of "Succession" fame) as the rigid mentalist Matt and Charlie Gillespie in a breakout role as the hilarious wannabe rocker Jackson, who certainly overstays his welcome in Carey and Ashley's increasingly-crowded apartment.Like he did with "The Climb," Covino brings artistic flair to comedy with a sort of retro vibe ("Splitsville" was, after all, shot on film). Cinematographer Adam Newport-Berra maintains some of the crazy energy he had filming Apple TV+'s "The Studio," particularly with his masterful tracking shots. The score by David Wingo and Dabney Morris also stands out as a character in itself.ORIGINAL 'NAKED GUN' DIRECTOR OFFERS HIS REASONS FOR SKIPPING LIAM NEESON REBOOT"Splitsville" can serve as a cautionary tale for open relationships that are more and more becoming en vogue, but that's not the point of the film. Covino said so himself at a screening I attended in Chicago where he was asked in a Q&A session what his "message" was about the taboo subject."We don't really believe in the concept of messages in movies," Covino told the Windy City audience. "It's not really the purpose of movies, to try to give people messages. It's definitely the purpose of movies to entertain."Isnt that the point of comedy? To entertain, to make people laugh? Even satires must do that. No wonder weve had such a comedic drought. Leave the messages for dramas.CLICK HERE FOR THE LATEST MEDIA AND CULTURE NEWSGiven that this is my inaugural film review for Fox News Digital, I should lay out some ground rules. First, I will rate films out of four stars, not five, in honor of the late film critic legend (and Chicago native) Roger Ebert. Second, while my tastes vary, Ill judge films on entertainment value, artistic value and originality. And third, in the digital age we live in, not only will I give a star rating, I will also hand down my verdict on whether it's worth seeing in theaters ("SEE IT"), wait til it's available to stream ("STREAM IT") or skip it altogether ("SKIP IT").Now, onto the real verdict.Quality comedies have become a rarity this past decade, so when one comes around, it ought to be celebrated. Purely unadulterated fun, "Splitsville" is a fresh screwball romp that keeps the laughs coming and cements Covino and Marvin as rising filmmakers and performers to watch."Splitsville" is rated R for language throughout, sexual content and graphic nudity. Running time: 1 hour, 40 minutes. In select theaters now; wide release September 5, 2025.

Carly Pearce recalled showing up at the 2020 CMA Awards looking "beat up" after knocking out her two front teeth."I had seven stitches in my lip because I almost bit through my lip seven days before I was up for my first CMA Award," Pearce recalled during an appearance on Bunnie XO's podcast, "Dumb Blonde." "And it was during the pandemic when, like only the artist got to go.""I don't tell anyone," she said. "I do all my interviews at my house. My face looks insane. I had to get like bonding and stitches and the whole thing. And I ended up going to the award show. I took my best girlfriend. She's still my best friend from childhood. And I'm sitting there and like my lip starts bleeding because it's like so messed up. She's like, 'You gotta, like, pat your lip.'""I looked like I got beat up," Pearce added.COUNTRY SINGER CARLY PEARCE SAYS DOCTORS DISMISSED HEART CONDITION SYMPTOMS: WHAT TO WATCH FORPearce won her first CMA that year, taking home the musical event of the year award for her collaboration with Lee Brice on the song "I Hope You're Happy Now." She also performed at the award show.She didn't speak publicly about her injury at the time, despite speculation over the cause of her swollen lips."I fell and knocked my two front teeth out," she eventually told E! News. "I had a bunch of stitches in my mouth, looked completely different than what I looked like right now, and it was kind of scary because I knew I was going into the biggest week of my life.""It looked really bad. It was scary," she added. "I was just really fortunate to get doctors that helped and knew the pressure I was under. But with every day, I was like, 'Please Lord, let my face heal so I can do this,' because this is such a huge moment."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSFive years later, Pearce recalled the buzz surrounding her facial injury. "Of course, I wake up the next day and all these radio stations are like, Carly Pearce had a bad botched job of her lips being done.""And I'm like, 'No, I don't. No, you have no idea. You have no idea what I've gone through.' Like my teeth were moving," Pearce told Bunnie XO.The country star explained she didn't clarify what actually happened to her mouth because she didn't want to "rock the boat.""I think for so long, I've been afraid to like, rock the boat. And I didn't I just didn't want to feed into it. But if you saw these pictures, they were insane."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERPearce has since been more open about her health.The "Should've Known Better" singer announced she had been diagnosed with an "intense" heart condition called pericarditis in May 2024. Pearce claimed that her health condition was initially "dismissed" by medical professionals, but she continued to press doctors until she received answers."My biggest piece of advice for anybody is: Listen to your body, and be your own advocate a lot of doctors dismissed me, and I was persistent until I got a diagnosis," she told Fox News Digital at the time.Pearce has been living with the heart condition for nearly five years and has been experiencing flare-ups since 2020."I had a really debilitating chest pain that was only relieved if I bent over like this (leaning forward), and that's a classic symptom of pericarditis," she previously explained to "Today.""And then when you lay back, it gets way worse, because that wall is kind of inflamed around your heart."She added: "I just had a really intense shortness of breath, like almost having to suck through, like, a straw."

Ron Howard and his wife want to share the love as they celebrate 50 years of marriage.The Academy Award-winning director recently revealed that to celebrate their anniversary, he and his wife, Cheryl Howard, donated a Victorian-style love seat to a Los Angeles-area park where they used to go on dates."I got the idea of an old-fashioned sort of love seat where couples could sit and talk and smooch a little bit," he told People magazine in a recent interview. The "Apollo 13" director said he had at first considered a traditional bench.The bronze "kissing chair" is located at Johnny Carson Park.

Comedian and "WTF" podcast host Marc Maron suggested Netflixs decision to continue giving a platform to Dave Chappelle shows how "fascism" can be "good for business."While speaking to "Pod Save America" co-host Jon Lovett on Sunday, Maron criticized the streaming giant for allegedly giving in to fascism if the company believed that it would be profitable."Fascism is good for business. Netflix will just, you know, co-opt anybody that can take that algorithm. I used to do a joke about it Netflix can become Reichflix very quickly," Maron said.COMIC HITS DAVE CHAPPELLE IN NEW NETFLIX SPECIAL FOR MAKING TRANS JOKES: 'IT'S NOT FUNNY, IT'S DANGEROUS'He called Netflixs continued support for Chappelle with multiple comedy specials, despite backlash from the transgender community, the "pivotal moment" for the platform."[W]hen they had pushback from the trans community about Chappelle, they realized after several days that that community was not going to affect their bottom line at all. And they cut em loose. That is how fascism works in business," Maron said.He dismissed claims that Netflix has promoted LGBTQ+ material in the past, arguing the company was only "throwing [them] a bone.""But ultimately, whos getting the big deals? Which shows stay on the air? You know, what do they keep repeating? Thats them saying, We got this other stuff and we know theres a few of you, but were throwing you a bone. So, shut up," Maron said.Fox News Digital reached out to Netflix for comment.Chappelle first came under fire after his 2021 Netflix special "The Closer" in which he said that "gender is a fact" and compared the transgender community to people who wear blackface. His comments prompted a Netflix employee walkout.DAVE CHAPPELLE'S NETFLIX SPECIAL GOES VIRAL FOR BLUNT TRANSGENDER COMMENTS: 'TELLING THE TRUTHNetflix continued to work with Chappelle, featuring him at its live comedy event 'Netflix Is a Joke: The Festival' in May 2022.His latest Netflix comedy special, "The Dreamer," premiered in 2023.

Florida beaches dominated a list of the top 10 U.S. beaches with shark attacks dating back several hundred years, according to a new report.Weather forecasting company Tideschart looked at data between 1642 through 2024 and looked at which beaches had the most shark attacks, with beaches in Florida compiling 9 out of the 10 slots. New Smyrna Beach, Florida, topped the list with 277 shark attacks since 1642.Ryan Blundell, founder of Tideschart, said there are many swimmers who are unaware of the danger just off the shores of some Florida beaches, but said people shouldn't panic."The concentration of shark attacks along Florida's coastline is striking, with New Smyrna Beach in particular standing out as a global hotspot for shark encounters. Many people are unaware that certain beaches pose significantly higher risks than others when it comes to shark activity," Blundell said. "These statistics shouldn't prevent people from enjoying the ocean, but they do highlight the importance of staying informed about local marine conditions and following safety guidelines when swimming or surfing in these areas. Understanding shark patterns and behaviors can help beachgoers make safer choices about where and when to enter the water."GREAT WHITE SHARK SIGHTINGS RISE ALONG NORTHEAST BEACHES AS SUMMER WINDS DOWNHere's a full list of U.S. beaches with the most shark attacks from 1642 through 2024:1. New Smyrna Beach, Florida: 277 shark attacks2. Daytona Beach, Florida: 67 shark attacks3. Cocoa Beach, Florida: 39 shark attacks4. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina: 36 shark attacks5.

"By the time I looked down, it was already gone. I never saw the shark, but it bit really forcefully."Fox News Digital's Sarah Rumpf-Whitten contributed to this report.

Perhaps it started with the O.J. Simpson case or, as I prefer to call it, the Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman case. That distinction matters, because the victims and their families were erased in the spectacle. Despite the nations obsession with every gruesome detail, there was no "justice" for them. Victims families never receive the neat, cinematic ending the bloodthirsty public, so intent on devouring every "juicy" development, craves.The "happy ending" with a guilty verdict and life sentence is rare, the courtroom finale, the "closure" narrative that helps them sleep at night none of that exists for us. We just want our loved ones back. And that will never happen. Every missed birthday, every holiday spent with an empty chair at the table, cuts just as deeply decades later as it did the very first year. The pain doesnt soften simply because the killer was convicted. And when the accused walk free, which happens more often than most realize, the anguish is multiplied.Grief from murder is not a season of life it is a permanent, open wound. It never heals. I would not wish it on anyone, not even those who consume it for sport on television, in podcasts, or on social media.INSIDE THE DEADLY 'SUBURBAN NIGHTMARE' THAT SHATTERED A CONNECTICUT FAMILY'S WORLDWhen the love of my life was murdered more than two decades ago, I was thrown into this reality. At first, reporters were everywhere, swarming for interviews, shoving microphones in my face, hungry for any morsel of drama. But when the investigation concluded, when the two brothers with long criminal records walked free and a third received a sweetheart plea deal, the cameras disappeared. No one cared to cover the injustice.I tried to scream it from the rooftops. I wanted the world to know two accused killers were walking free among them. But my story wasnt the ending the public wanted, so it went ignored. The reporters packed up and left, chasing the next sensational headline. Meanwhile, I was left with a shattered life and no justice. That silence was as brutal as the murder itself.Now we have the Kohberger case. But again, I will not call it that. I will call it the case of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin the four bright lives stolen in Moscow, Idaho. They deserve to be remembered by name, not as props in someone elses story.FAMILY OF VICTIM IN BRYAN KOHBERGER CASE SAY THEY WERE SENT INTO 'PANIC MODE' AFTER PLEA DEALThis time, the public did not get the spectacle they craved. There was no wall-to-wall televised trial, no months of salacious testimony, no chance for the killer to bask in attention and notoriety. Instead, the district attorney pursued a plea deal. I admit I was troubled at first that the families were not consulted before that decision was announced. But ultimately, it was the very best outcome for them.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONNo trial meant no opportunity for this monster to revel in the spotlight. No chance for a jury to get it wrong. No technical loophole for him to slip through. No endless appeals. No parole hearings, dragging the families back into the nightmare every few years. And those of us who have been through this know the truth: no matter how long the trial, the families would never have received the answers they so desperately wanted. People like him soulless, evil beings dont give closure. They give torment.So, the case ended quietly, and for once, the public had to accept it. No drawn-out theater. No intimate details to feast on. Just the same empty questions the families face: What were their last words? Were they scared? Who did they call for? Did they suffer? These are the agonizing thoughts we live with, day after day, year after year, while the rest of the world moves on.BRYAN KOHBERGER DEFENSE SUGGESTS 'ALTERNATE PERPETRATORS' IN IDAHO MURDERS, JOINING INFAMOUS LEGAL STRATEGYThat is the cold, hard reality of murder. It is not a story arc. It is not a Netflix documentary. It is not entertainment. It is pure and unfiltered devastation. It is silence in the house where laughter once was. It is a parent burying a child. It is waking up every single day with the same punch in the gut that this person you loved is gone forever, that their final moments in life were filled with pain and fear and that you were not there to protect them.I hope the media, the public and the courts can finally recognize this. I hope they will respect the wishes of the Idaho victims families and seal the evidence and files and remember my words in future cases.There is no public benefit to dragging them through more pain. There is no justice in putting private horrors on display. There is only cruelty.Murder is not entertainment. It is not content to be consumed. It is the worst thing that can happen to a family, and it deserves to be treated with the gravity, dignity and respect that reality demands. For the sake of those of us living with it, for the sake of the victims who can no longer speak, let us never forget: their names, their stories, their humanity must come before the publics appetite for spectacle.

Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., called for the 25th Amendment to the Constitution to be used against President Donald Trump on Friday, suggesting he was unfit, during a discussion about his removal of Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors."It is time to call for Article [Amendment] 25 of the Constitution of the United States of America to determine his unfitness, to determine that somethings wrong with this president. And I would suggest that we move very aggressively to talk about the danger to this country and to our democracy and not play around with this, because this is absolutely one of the most destructive things that this president could do," Waters said during an appearance on MSNBC's "The Weeknight."Trump removed Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Monday, alleging she misrepresented mortgage information."This stands to basically upend the entire economy. This stands to really deal with what is going to happen on Wall Street, whats going to happen with interest rates, whats going to happen with the president of the United States being able to make decisions that he will personally benefit from. And so the world, and certainly the United States, should be watching this very closely. As far as Im concerned, we have to move very aggressively. It is not about lingering and trying to think that maybe the courts will help us," Waters said on MSNBC.'SOME AUTHORITARIAN S***:' DEMS RIP TRUMP'S UNPRECEDENTED FIRING OF FED GOVERNOR LISA COOKCook sued Trump on Thursday, arguing that the president had not met the standard of a removal for cause and requesting a restraining order to allow her to remain on theFederal Reserve.The case is likely headed to the Supreme Court and marks a major escalation in the growing clash between the White House and the Federal Reserve.MSNBC host Symone Sanders-Townsend asked Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., for her take after Waters called for the 25th Amendment during the panel discussion."I think its jarring to hear Congresswoman Waters say its time for the 25th Amendment. But, I mean, presidents have been impeached for much less," Sanders said.COOKS POTENTIAL EXIT HANDS TRUMP GREATER SWAY OVER FED BOARD SHAPING US MONETARY POLICYWasserman Schultz argued that Trump wanted to fire Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell."Donald Trumps real preference is to fire Jerome Powell. But he knows that thats a bridge too far. So what hes doing instead is, hes taking a monkey wrench, and hes going to go in and try to meddle with the component parts of the Federal Reserve by trying to fire Lisa Cook on something that was maintained in the court case today, that shes not even being investigated for. By the way, the so-called fraud that she is being accused of, she didnt even get preferred interest rates on any of the mortgages that she obtained, which demonstrates that she didnt break the law. Its preposterous," Wasserman Schultz said.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREFox News' Amanda Macias contributed to this report.

College football is back and so are the tailgates and celebrations for favorite teams.But what constitutes the perfect tailgating food and what are some factors that should be considered before game day?"Your football team has put in the work over the last year, so it's only fair to make sure you've put in the work ahead of your tailgate," Josh Cooper told Fox News Digital.WORLD-CLASS BARBECUE CHEF SHARES 5 'GAME-CHANGING' SUMMER SIDE DISHES ANYONE CAN MAKECooper is a world champion pitmaster and political consultant in Tallahassee, Florida, home to Florida State University and Florida A&M University.The former college football player shared some of his tips for a winning tailgate."Remember, winning starts in the parking lot," he said.Any successful tailgate needs the proper preparation, Cooper said.That includes making a list of food and other items that will be needed for game day.PORK CHOP ON A STICK, BACON-WRAPPED TWINKIE AND OTHER ODD FOODS DOMINATE ICONIC STATE FAIRBe sure to have plenty of food, ice and beverages, the co-owner of Cooper's Next Level BBQ said."But it's not just about planning your food," Cooper said.Tailgaters need to think about tents for shade, sunscreen, hand-washing stations, bins for dirty dishes, trash cans and extra water, he said.One "pro tip" that Cooper recommends is freezing water bottles to use as ice and then drinking them up "after a long day of imbibing."Tailgaters must also consider how to cool down the grill before the game starts, he said."Game schedule not only helps you determine what foods to serve, it determines when to serve food to your guests," Cooper said.PRICE OF THIS SUMMER GRILLING STAPLE REMAINS AT RECORD HIGH AS BEEF LOVERS ADAPTEarly kickoffs could mean you'll be serving more breakfast food, whereas afternoon and night games may mean more of a traditional appetizer and dinner menu."Work backwards on when to have food ready," Cooper said.

The Trump administration has ordered a nationwide review of public housing in an effort to root out residents who are in the country illegally, according to Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner announced Friday.Turner wrote that each Public Housing Authority has 30 days to conduct an audit to ensure that the existing orders are enforced. The department is asking for information about the public housing units, as well as verifiable citizenship or "eligible immigration status.""No longer will illegal aliens be able to leave citizenship boxes blank or take advantage of HUD-funded housing, riding the coattails of hardworking American citizens," Turner wrote."Currently, HUD only serves one out of four eligible families due, in part, to the lack of enforcement of prohibition against federally funded assistance to illegal aliens," he continued.If a program does not comply with the request, it could risk "examination" of its own federal funding.Turner told Fox News Channel's Charles Hurt on "Jesse Watters Primetime" on Friday that the DC Housing Authority was the first one to be placed on notice, but over 3,000 other PHAs are being told the same requirements nationwide, stressing that "American citizens will be prioritized."The move received praise from Republicans, but skepticism from others who said it could strain resources."Anyone in this country illegally should be deported, not given publicly funded housing!"
