    Trump is sending a powerful message to our enemies and allies with the Pentagon's rebrand
    When the White House announced it would rechristen the Department of Defense as the Department of War, the country didnt just react it combusted. Critics from across the aisle called it a costly political stunt, a distraction from real national security needs at a time when every dollar and every headline should count. Democratic Senator Tammy Duckworth, herself a veteran, didnt mince words: "This money," she argued, "would be better spent supporting military families or funding diplomacy."Observers warn that reviving the "Department of War" label signals a more aggressive American posture, one that could undermine decades of strategic restraint and the international norms that have kept global tensions in check. Editorials from San Antonio to Londons Guardian have sounded the alarm: is this a return to saber-rattling, or just a branding exercise gone rogue?But what if theres more to this than meets the eye? What if, beneath the headlines and hashtags, theres a calculated strategy at work?TRUMP TO RENAME PENTAGON, RESTORING HISTORIC DEPARTMENT OF WAR IN LATEST MILITARY MOVEThe Power of Words And Why They Matter NowWords are not mere labels; they are the lenses through which we perceive reality. At my firm, maslansky + partners, we often say: "It's not what you say, it's what they hear." And what people are hearing now is profound but perhaps, thats exactly the point.From Defense to War: A Calculated ShiftConsider the implications:For decades, Americas military has been framed as a shield. But in a world where threats are multiplying and adversaries are emboldened, maybe the shield isnt enough. Maybe its time to remind the world and ourselves that America still carries a sword.Recruiting, Morale, and the Warrior EthosDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth has been clear: he wants to instill a "warrior ethos." But this isnt just about chest-thumping. Its about recruitment. Its about morale. Its about telling young Americans that joining the military isnt just about standing guard its about being part of something bold, assertive and unapologetically strong.Global Perception: A New Kind of DeterrenceFor decades, America has framed its military mission as one of defense defending democracy, allies and freedom. That framing granted us legitimacy, trust and moral authority. But it also, at times, invited our adversaries to test our limits.Now, with the Department of War, the message is starkly different: Were not just here to defend. Were here to win.This shift doesnt just make our adversaries nervous; it could make them think twice. It could signal to the world that America is done playing defense and that the cost of aggression just went up.Why This MattersThis isnt about semantics; its about how America defines itself and how the rest of the world defines us.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONTrump and Hegseth may want Americans to hear strength, toughness and patriotism. And maybe, just maybe, thats exactly what the world needs to hear right now. The same words that inspire at home may unsettle abroad and that, too, could be by design.Thats the paradox of communication. You cant control only what you say; you have to own what people hear.And in this case, what people hear when we go from Defense to War is profoundly different. Maybe thats not a bug. Maybe its the feature.Closing ThoughtThis change isnt just a rebrand; its a signal to our soldiers, our allies and our enemies. Its a reminder that in politics, as in business, words matter.Because at the end of the day, its not what you say. Its what they hear. And sometimes, what they hear is exactly what you want them to.

    Man wanted in $78K ICE building firebombing may be posing as a woman: FBI
    A Georgia fugitive accused of torching an ICE building during the 2020 riots is wanted on fresh federal charges, with the FBI noting he may be disguising himself in womens clothing.Federal charges were unsealed Thursday against convicted felon Ronald Scott Watson, 28, of Kennesaw, Georgiawho also goes by the names of Sarah Watson, Miranda Kyle and Emily Smith, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).Watson is charged with arson and destruction of government property in relation to a summer 2020 attack on the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) building in downtown Atlanta, according to the DOJ.SUSPECTED ICE FACILITY ATTACKERS ARRESTED IN BLUE CITY, CHARGED WITH ASSAULTING FEDERAL OFFICERSJust before midnight on July 25, 2020, a crowd gathered at the Atlanta ICE building and protested outside a fenced area.Meanwhile, several masked people wearing dark clothing breached the fences and vandalized the building, according to officials and court documents.The rioters allegedly used rocks, cinder blocks, modified fireworks, Molotov cocktails, lighter fluid bottles, and other materials to cause more than $78,000 in damage.Inside the building, law enforcement found blood near a broken window and a lighter fluid bottle near an undetonated Molotov cocktail, according to the DOJ.Officials said law enforcement identified Watson as one of the people in the group, based on evidence collected following his January 2023 felony conviction for assaulting a public safety officer in Oregon.MULTIPLE ARRESTS AFTER VIOLENT MOB ATTACKS PORTLAND ICE FACILITY WITH FIREWORKS AND KNIVESPrior to the attack on the ICE building, officials said Watson posted numerous anti-ICE messages on social media, including "a depiction of an ICE agent about to be struck in the head with a baseball bat."Watson also allegedly claimed on social media to have "thrown bricks, done other things not to be mentioned, [and] Doxxed people" as examples of "taking action," according to the DOJ."The right to peacefully protest never excuses acts of violence, like smashing windows and attempting to set fire to a government building," said U.S. Attorney Theodore Hertzberg.

    Macaulay Culkin says John Candy was rare Hollywood ally during troubled childhood with monster father
    For Macaulay Culkin, John Candy was more than a co-star.Culkin, who appeared alongside Candy in 1989's "Uncle Buck" and then again in 1990's "Home Alone," spoke about the late comedic actor in a new documentary, revealing that he was one of the few people in Hollywood who checked in on him about his "monster" of a father, Christopher "Kit" Culkin."I think he always had that really great instinct," Culkin said in "John Candy: I Like Me," which premiered Thursday at the Toronto International Film Festival.HOME ALONE STAR MACAULAY CULKIN HASN'T SPOKEN TO HIS NARCISSISTIC DAD IN OVER 30 YEARS"I think he saw," he explained, per People. "Listen, even before the wave crested and theHome Alonestuff was happening, it was not hard to see how difficult my father was. It was no secret. He was already a monster."Culkin has been open about the struggles he faced growing up in his father's home in a 2018 interview with Marc Maron, he called him a "bad man," claiming that he was "abusive, physically and mentally."The former child star has also said that his father hid his earnings from him, so much that he felt the need to remove both of his parents from his trust in 1995 to protect it.In the Candy documentary, Culkin said that while his father was a "monster" before he became a successful actor, "All of a sudden, the fame and the money came, and he became aninfamousmonster. He was already not a good guy. I think John was looking a little side-eyed, like, 'Is everything alright over there? You doing good? Good day? Everything's alright? Everything good at home? Alright.'"He said that Candy's acknowledgment of his father's behavior was "a testament to the kind of man he was," and said that the older star "was just looking out" for him."It doesn't happen that often," Culkin said of his "paternal" co-star's choice to check in on him. "It actually happened less as time went on. I wish I got more of that in my life. It's important that I remember that. I remember John caring when not a lot of people did."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSHe added that while many stars "don't know how or don't like to work with kids," Candy "was always really kind, and really good" with him and Gaby Hoffmann, who starred alongside the two in "Uncle Buck."Candy was a beloved comedic actor throughout the 80s and into the early 90s. In addition to the films he did with Culkin, he appeared in films like "The Great Outdoors" and "Planes, Trains & Automobiles."Candy died of a heart attack in 1994. He was 43.Earlier this year, Culkin admitted that he hasn't spoken to his father in over 30 years."Oh, he deserves it too," he said during an appearance on Kate and Oliver Hudson's "Sibling Revelry" podcast. Yeah. He's a man who, he had seven kids, and now he has four grandkids. Yeah. And, none of them want anything to do with him."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERTwo of those grandchildren are Culkin's he shares two sons, Dakota and Carson, with his partner, actress Brenda Song."Now that I have kids of my own, it's like, you know, it kicks up some dust," he said. "I kinda go, you know, like, I can't believe he was like that. He had all these lovely kids. It's crazy."

    Rob Gronkowski explains why today's rookie quarterbacks are more 'ready to go now' than in years past
    Only one rookie quarterback will be starting Week 1 this season as opposed to three last year.That's mostly because last year's class was widely regarded as one of the better quarterbacks groups, as six went in the first 12 picks. This year, after Cam Ward went first overall, the next quarterback taken was Jaxson Dart at pick No. 25.But the debate continues over whether rookies should get thrown right into the fire in Week 1, and four-time Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski believes that they could be if necessary.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"These quarterbacks, I feel like, are ready to go now. Back in the day, 10, 15 years ago, they werent really given the knowledge that they are given this day in the college ranks of football," Gronkowski told "Fox & Friends" on Friday."These guys are coming right into these NFL organizations, and theyre studying the playbook from day one. The day after they get drafted, they get handed the playbook. They got coaches that start building that knowledge and just bolstering the knowledge of the game of football into their brains so theyre ready to go when the season starts and Week 1 hits. So these quarterbacks, its a different era, because I feel like college is preparing them more than ever before."There are exceptions, though, like Dart, who will be backing up longtime veteran Russell Wilson. Michael Penix did the same with Kirk Cousins last year, as did Drake Maye with Jacoby Brissett.ROBERT KRAFT SAYS BILL BELICHICK WILL RECEIVE STATUE 'RIGHT NEXT TO' TOM BRADY'SEven perennial MVP candidates like Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Jalen Hurts sat behind veterans before cementing themselves as some of the game's best. Aaron Rodgers also infamously sat behind Brett Favre, and Jordan Love sat behind Rodgers."This ones a little bit different, because hes behind a veteran. And when youre behind a veteran, it can actually be more impactful for you longer term in your career, because you can learn from Russell Wilson. " Gronkowski said, specifically speaking about Dart."Jaxson Dart has a bright future, but you just gotta pump the brakes on him playing this year. Hes gonna have to sit behind Russell Wilson this year, but hes going to learn a lot under [head coach Brian] Daboll and being behind Russell Wilson. Hes got a bright future ahead of him."Arch Manning, LaNorris Sellers, Garrett Nussmeier, Drew Allar, and Cade Klubnik are all widely regarded to be first-round picks next year.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    Justice Department mulls restricting transgender people from buying guns
    Department of Justice officials have had several internal meetings about putting limitations on transgender peoples ability to purchase firearms, Fox News Digital has learned.The DOJ officials conversations are in an early stage and no concrete steps have been taken, according to conversations with multiple sources.But the discussions surrounding two hotly contested issues for Republicans preserving Second Amendment rights and tightening policies related to transgender people are happening.One source pointed to a "pattern" of shootings carried out by transgender people, including the recent tragedy at a Catholic Church in Minnesota. Robin Westman, who was named Robert through 2019, killed two children and injured more than a dozen others before dying by suicide. Westmans firearms were purchased legally, according to the Associated Press.ATF CHIEF LEGAL COUNSEL FIRED BY BONDI IN LATEST JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SHAKEUPAnother source said the DOJ's discussions about banning transgender people from buying or owning guns have involved the Office of Legal Counsel, which provides legal advice to the executive branch. The source indicated that the DOJ officials are currently thinking through a feasible legal framework. Such discussions would likely rope in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), which is part of the DOJ and has authority over federal rules related to firearms.When asked about the talks, a DOJ spokesperson downplayed the discussions targeting transgender people, telling Fox News the department has been examining numerous options to address the correlation between shootings and mental health but that it has not come up with anything specific."The DOJ is actively evaluating options to prevent the pattern of violence we have seen from individuals with specific mental health challenges and substance abuse disorders," the spokesperson said. "No specific criminal justice proposals have been advanced at this time."ATTORNEY GENERAL PAM BONDI VOWS TO BRING THE DOJ BACK TO ITS 'CORE FUNCTION,' DECLARES 'WEAPONIZATION' OVEROne of the sources said DOJ officials "are reviewing ways to ensure that mentally ill individuals suffering from gender dysphoria are unable to obtain firearms while they are unstable and unwell."People with mental health conditions are typically not banned from purchasing guns under current laws, which the Supreme Court reaffirmed as recently as 2024 in United States v. Rahimi.But in some instances, such as a court deeming someone mentally incompetent, that information is supposed to crop up during a background check and block a customer from obtaining a gun license.Gun rights advocates were quick to respond to word of the DOJs efforts to find ways to restrict transgender people from buying or owning guns.The Firearms Policy Coalition threatened to sue if the DOJs conversations materialized into concrete policy proposals.FEDERAL JUDGE RULES TRUMP ADMIN CANNOT BLOCK GRANTS TO LGBT GROUPS"If the Trump Administration or any administration unwisely and immorally chooses to wield the force of government in conflict with the Constitution, federal law, or our values, FPC will take aggressive action to defend the rights of peaceable people, just as we have many times before," the group said in a statement.The Firearms Policy Coalitions stated mission is to "eliminate bans on constitutionally protected arms, carry in public, the personal manufacture of weapons, and non-dangerous legal adults."The DOJs actions align with Trumps string of executive actions when he took office that were designed to change policies regarding transgender people. The president said in his orders that only two sexes existed, male and female; that people with gender dysphoria cannot serve in the military; and that students would violate Title IX if they competed in sports exclusive to their opposite sex.Fox News reached out to the White House for comment on the DOJ floating the idea of banning transgender people from purchasing guns.Fox News David Spunt and Jake Gibson contributed to this story.

    CBS overhauls 'Face the Nation' interview format after Noem editing controversy sparks backlash
    CBS News announced Friday it will change the way "Face the Nation" handles interviews and the program will only broadcast live, or live-to-tape, interviews moving forward.The surprise announcement comes on the heels of Homeland Security SecretaryKristi Noem accusing CBS News of editing her interview Sunday to "whitewash the truth" about an alleged MS-13 gang member. It also arrives months after the company settled President Donald Trumps "election interference" lawsuit in July that accused CBS News of deceptive editing."In response to audience feedback over the past week, we have implemented a new policy for greater transparency in our interviews. Face the Nation will now only broadcast live or live-to-tape interviews (subject to national security or legal restrictions). This extra measure means the television audience will see the full, unedited interview on CBS, and we will continue our practice of posting full transcripts and the unedited video online," a CBS News spokesperson told Fox News Digital.KRISTI NOEM ACCUSES CBS NEWS OF SHAMEFULLY EDITING HER INTERVIEW ABOUT KILMAR ABREGO GARCIAOn Sunday, Noem blasted CBS after her interview aired on "Face the Nation." "I joined CBS to report the facts about Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Instead, CBS shamefully edited the interview to whitewash the truth about this MS-13 gang member and the threat he poses to American public safety," Noem wrote alongside video clips to back up her point.In the clip that aired on television, Noem said, "Prosecution decisions are always made by the Department of Justice and Pam Bondis department, so we will let them do that, although this individual does have criminal charges pending. He has charges pending against him civilly as well. And the one thing that we will continue to do is to make sure that he doesnt walk free in the United States of America."The on-air portion edited out the rest of her answer and went to moderator Ed OKeefes next question about whether the government would still seek to deport him to Uganda.Noem posted her "uncut response" online, noting it was excluded from the broadcast. The full interview, however, remained available on the shows YouTube page.CBS NEWS INSIDERS BRACE FOR BARI WEISS AS PARAMOUNT CEO PUSHES DEAL WORTH UP TO $200M"This individual was a known human smuggler, an MS-13 gang member, and an individual who is a wife beater, and someone who is so perverted that he solicited nude photos from minors and even his fellow human traffickers told him to knock it off. He was so sick in what he was doing and how he was treating small children. So, he needs to never be in the United States of America, and our administration is making sure were doing all that we can," Noem said.At the time, CBS insisted the process met the network's standards."Secretary Noems 'Face the Nation' interview was edited for time and met all CBS News standards," a CBS News spokesperson told Fox News Digital on Monday.PARAMOUNT, CBS FORCED TO PAY EIGHT FIGURES, CHANGE EDITORIAL POLICY IN SETTLEMENT WITH PRESIDENT TRUMPAs for the Trump settlement, the president was seeking $20 billion in his lawsuit against CBS over its handling of a "60 Minutes" interview last year with then-Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing the network of election interference leading up to the 2024 contest.The lawsuit alleged CBS News edited an exchange Harris had with "60 Minutes" correspondent Bill Whitaker, who asked her why Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wasn't "listening" to the Biden administration.Harris was widely mockedfor the "word salad" answer that aired in a preview clip of the interview on "Face the Nation."However, when the same question aired during a primetime special on the network, Harris had a different, more concise response. Critics at the time accused CBS News of editingHarris' answerto shield the Democratic nominee from backlash leading up to Election Day.Trump agreed to receive $16 million upfront to cover legal fees, costs of the case, and contributions to his future presidential library or charitable causes. The president has said another allocation in the eight figures has been set aside for advertisements, public service announcements, or other similar transmissions, in support of conservative causes by the network in the future.
