WWW.FOXNEWS.COMRyan Routh trial opens with bizarre jury questions and witness dramaThe first day of jury selection kicked off Monday in Fort Pierce, Florida, for the high-profile federal trial of Ryan Routh, who allegedly sought to assassinate President Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club in September 2024.Routh, who is representing himself, appeared at the federal courthouse on Monday morning wearing a gray suit and ankle shackles as the voir dire process began, with prosecutors and Routh questioning jurors to determine whether they can fairly participate in the trial.The jury selection process will identify 12 jurors and four alternates for the trial.RYAN ROUTH TRIAL: JURY SELECTION BEGINS IN TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT CASEDuring jury selection, Routh asked potential jurors their views on the war in Gaza, their position on the U.S. potentially acquiring Greenland as the president has floated, and how they would act if they were driving and spotted a turtle in the middle of the road.U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee, dismissed Rouths questions as "politically charged," and said that they were unnecessary for jury selection."None of the questions on your list have any bearing whatsoever. They were off base, sir, and have no relevance to jury selection," Cannon said. When Routh attempted to speak in protest, Cannon warned him not to interrupt.Routh also said a former co-worker listed on his witness list, Eric Zuniga, would not testify on Rouths behalf because Zuniga lives in Costa Rica and "likes his freedom and doesnt want to get arrested or deported." Routh then withdrew Zunigas name as a potential witness.TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT SUSPECT RYAN ROUTH CHALLENGES PRESIDENT TO ROUND OF GOLFRouth also said another potential witness hed listed would also unlikely to appear, due to scheduled travel to Vietnam during the trial.After the morning session wrapped up, Cannon asked if there was anything else, prompting Routh to say that he is "still in a situation at the jail where I cant sleep.""I dont know if they could move me to general population or something," Routh said.But Cannon once again shut Routh down, and said that the statement wasnt appropriate at that time.Twenty-seven out of the 60 prospective jurors claimed that they had a hardship that would prevent them from participating on the jury for Routh's case. Meanwhile, Routh claimed he had reservations about many potential jurors, but couldn't identify specific concerns.Prosecutors claim that Routh sought to kill Trump for weeks, and staked out a spot in shrubbery on Sept. 15, 2024, when a Secret Service agent detected him pointing a rifle at Trump while the then-presidential candidate played golf at his West Palm Beach country club. Routh aimed his rifle at the agent, but abandoned his weapon and the scene after the Secret Service agents opened fire.TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT SUSPECT RYAN ROUTH CAN'T SEE CLASSIFIED INFO RELATING TO CASE, JUDGE RULESRouth faces federal charges, including attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, as well as assaulting a federal officer and various gun violations. The charges carry a potential life sentence if the jury finds him guilty. Meanwhile, Routh has maintained hes innocent and pleaded not guilty to all federal charges, in addition to state charges of terrorism and attempted murder.Opening statements for the trial are expected to kick off on Thursday, and prosecutors are poised to launch into their case immediately afterward. The court has allocated four weeks for Rouths trial, although it is expected to wrap up sooner.Fox News Jamie Joseph, Heather Lacey, Jake Gibson, and the Associated Press contributed to this report.0 Comments 0 Shares 7 Views 0 Reviews

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMFour hikers on psychedelic mushrooms rescued in popular mountain destinationFour hikers who admitted to taking psychedelic mushrooms were rescued in New Yorks Catskill Mountains after becoming disoriented and straying off the trail, officials said. It's the second such case this year in New York's popular mountain areas.The group called for help around 5 p.m. on Aug. 29 when one member suffered a "debilitating high," according to the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).Forest rangers and the Pine Hill Fire Department located the group at about 6:45 p.m. less than 1,000 feet from the marked trail.CRIES FOR HELP LEAD RESCUERS TO INJURED HIKER AFTER TERRIFYING 25-FOOT PLUNGE AT POPULAR WATERFALLThe four men are in their 20s and one hiker was in the fetal position and unable to communicate, according to the New York Times.One hiker was hallucinating about a bridge that did not exist, Forest Ranger Russell Martin told Fox News Digital.Psychedelic mushrooms, also known as "magic mushrooms," contain psilocybin, a hallucinogen that alters brain chemistry and can trigger vivid hallucinations, a warped sense of time, and rapid mood swings. Psilocybin mushrooms are illegal in New York."This was treacherous, steep Catskill terrain and when people intentionally get high like this, it reduces their ability to make good decisions," Russell said. "Mushrooms are illegal, but whether youre using marijuana or alcohol, its a good idea to make sure youre with at least one responsible person who is not partaking."The men were hiking in the Giant Ledge area of the Slide Mountain Wilderness, about 80 miles southwest of Albany and one of the Catskills most popular trail destinations, offering sweeping views of Panther and Slide Mountains from a series of sheer rock outcrops. The ledges rise to about 3,200 feet, with hikers climbing roughly 1,200 feet from the trailhead to reach the overlook.DANGEROUS TRAIL LEAVES HIKERS STRANDED OVERNIGHT ON MAINE'S HIGHEST MOUNTAINThe men had strayed about 1,000 feet off the trail, according to the New York Times.Once rangers and firefighters located the men, they guided the group back to the trailhead, where they were evaluated. Officials said none of the men required hospitalization and rangers later drove them back to their rental lodging.Somewhere along the way, the hikers also lost their car keys, officials said. The following day, one of the rangers hiked back up and found a sling bag with the keys under a log in tall ferns.In May, two hikers in the Adirondack Mountains in the northeastern part of New York state near Lake Placid called authorities to report that a member of their hiking party had died. It turned out they had taken hallucinogenic mushrooms and were mistaken.The hiker who was believed to be dead called and was not injured. A ranger escorted the two hikers down to an ambulance, which took them to a hospital and brought the third to the groups campsite, where they all later met up, officials said.The two hikers who called 911 also told a steward on the mountains summit that they were lost. The steward "determined the hikers were in an altered mental state," according to the DEC.The Associated Press contributed to this report.0 Comments 0 Shares 16 Views 0 Reviews

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMMeet the ex-Biden appointee who could be major force against Trumps AI agenda: 'Doomsayer'President Donald Trumps push to establish "Americas global AI dominance" could run into friction from an unlikely source: the "effective altruism" movement, a small but influential group that has a darker outlook on artificial intelligence.Trump signed an executive order earlier this year titled, "Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence." This week he met with top technology industry leaders, including Mark Zuckerburg, Bill Gates and others, for meetings at the White House in which AI loomed large in the discussions. However, not all the industrys leaders share the presidents vision for American AI dominance.Jason Matheny, a former senior Biden official who currently serves as the CEO of the RAND Corporation, is a leader in the effective altruism movement, which, among other priorities, seeks to regulate the development of artificial intelligence with the goal of reducing its risks.Effective altruism is a philanthropic social movement where proponents claim to be aiming to maximize the good they can do in the world and give to what they calculate are the most effective charities and interventions. Part of this movement includes powerful donors from across many sectors, including technology, where funds are poured into fighting against what the group sees as existential threats, including artificial intelligence.NEW AI APPS HELP RENTAL DRIVERS AVOID FAKE DAMAGE FEESSome in the movement have also pledged to give away a portion of their income, while others have argued about the morality of earning as much money as possible in order to give it away.A former Defense Department official familiar with the industrys leaders told Fox News Digital that since a 2017 speech at an effective altruism forum in which he laid out his vision, Matheny has "been very deliberate about inserting personnel who share his AI-doomerism worldview" into government and government contractor roles."Since then, he has made good on every single one of his calls to action to explicitly infiltrate think tanks, in-government decision makers, and trusted government contractors with this effective altruism, AI kind of doomsayer philosophy," the official continued.A RAND Corporation spokesperson pushed back against this label and said that Matheny "believes a wide range of views and backgrounds are essential to analyzing and informing sound public policy. His interest is in encouraging talented young people to embrace public service."The spokesperson added that AI being an "existential threat" is "not the lens" through which the company approaches AI, but said, "Our researchers are taking a broad look at the many ways AI is and will impact society including both opportunities and threats."In his 2017 speech, Matheny discussed his vision of influencing the government from the inside and outside to advance effective altruistic goals."The work that I've done at IARPA (Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity) has convinced me that there's a lot of low-hanging fruit within government positions that we should be picking as effective altruists. There are many different roles that effective altruists can have within government organizations," Matheny told an effective altruism forum in 2017, before going on to explain how even "fairly junior positions" can "wield incredible influence."GOOGLE CEO, MAJOR TECH LEADERS JOIN FIRST LADY MELANIA TRUMP AT WHITE HOUSE AI MEETINGMatheny went on to explain the need for "influence" on the "outside" in the form of contractors working for government agencies specialized in fields like biology and chemistry along with experts at various think tanks."That's another way you can have an influence on the government," Matheny said.Matheny advanced the philosophys ideals in the Biden White House in his roles as deputy assistant to the president for technology and national security, deputy director for national security in the Office of Science and Technology Policy and coordinator for technology and national security at the National Security Council.According to reporting by Politico, RAND officials were involved in writing former President Joe Bidens 2023 executive order "Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence." The order mirrored many effective altruist goals regarding AI, such as the idea that "harnessing AI for good and realizing its myriad benefits requires mitigating its substantial risks."However, a RAND spokesperson told Fox News Digital that Matheny had "no role" crafting the Biden EO, but said its "researchers did provide technical expertise and analysis to inform the EO in response to requests from policymakers."The order read that "responsible AI use has the potential to help solve urgent challenges while making our world more prosperous, productive, innovative, and secure.At the same time, irresponsible use could exacerbate societal harms such as fraud, discrimination, bias, and disinformation; displace and disempower workers; stifle competition; and pose risks to national security."Its solution was to increase regulations on the development of AI and add new government reporting requirements for companies developing the technology. For many in the industry, this was seen as an example of government overreach that stifled innovation and hurt the U.S.s ability to compete with countries like China.The order has since been revoked by Trumps AI order, which was signed in the first few days of his second administration. However, as head of RAND, a public policy and research advising group, Matheny and RAND have continued to push their vision for AI regulation and warn about the potential pitfalls.RAND has posted on social media in recent months warning that AI will "fundamentally reshape the economics of cybersecurity" and that the "growing use of AI chatbots for mental health support means society is 'deploying pseudo-therapists at an unprecedented scale.'"Semafor reported earlier this year that the Trump administration was butting heads with Anthropic, a top artificial intelligence company with ties to the EA movement and the Biden administration, on AI policy."It's hard to tell a clean story of every single actor involved, but at the heart, the Doomerism community that Jason's really at the heart of, what they are really concerned with is they truly believe about a runaway super-intelligent model that takes over the world like a Terminator scenario," the former DOD official told Fox News Digital, adding that the fear of Effective Altruists that AI is an "existential threat" has led to their push that is "restrictive" to the "growth of the technology.""With respect to the Trump administrations AI policies, much RAND analysis is focused on key parts of the Presidents AI Action Plan, including analysis weve done on AI evaluations, secure data centers, energy options for AI, cybersecurity and biosecurity," the RAND spokesperson said."Mr. Matheny appreciates that the Trump Administration may have different views than the prior administration on AI policy," the spokesperson continued. "He remains committed, along with RAND, to contributing expertise and analysis to helping the Trump Administration shape policies to advance the United States interests."0 Comments 0 Shares 13 Views 0 Reviews

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMRetired college professor killed in attack while walking dog in parkA former Auburn University professor was killed while walking her dog on Saturday at a local park.The Auburn, Alabama Police Department said 59-year-old Julie Schnuelle was found dead in a wooded area of Kiesel Park with injuries that indicated her death was caused by an assault. Police said officers initially responded to a 911 call regarding a deceased person. AL.com reported the dog was unharmed.26-year-old Harold Rashad Dabney III was arrested on two counts of capital murder in relation to the death of Schnuelle. In a news release, police said that Dabney was arrested on Sunday following an 8:30 a.m. call reporting a "suspicious person," noting that detectives "made observations that led them to believe Dabney had involvement with the homicide."Dabney III also allegedly stole a red Ford F-150 belonging to Schnuelle which has since been recovered, police said.KENTUCKY COLLEGE ATHLETE ACCUSED OF HIDING DEAD BABY IN CLOSET WAS SERIAL BULLY, FORMER CLASSMATE SAYSSchnuelle was a professor emerita at Auburn University's College of Veterinary Medicine from 2003 to 2021, when she retired, the university said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital."The Auburn University community extends its sincere condolences to Gard Schnuelles family and loved ones for their tragic loss," the spokeswoman said.The Auburn University statement described Schnuelle as a "cherished educator.""She was a cherished educator, mentor and colleague whose dedication to students and passion for theriogenology and veterinary medicine left a lasting impact on Auburn," the university said. "Dr. Gard Schnuelles legacy of compassion, scholarship and service will continue to inspire generations of veterinarians."PORTLAND MURDER SUSPECT HIT WITH FOURTH HOMICIDE CHARGE AS VICTIMS' FAMILIES DEMAND JUSTICEAshley Rutter told AL.com that Schnuelle went to Kiesel Park every day."She ran there every day," Rutter said. "She was always so welcoming. She was spunky and ready to make jokes. But if she saw something she didnt like, she would always stand up for you and for herself."Another former student, Destinee Bearden Patterson, told the outlet Schnuelle "was a force.""She was only a little bit over 5-foot-2, not your typical large animal veterinarian. She was a force in this world, such a bright, bright light, just an all-around wonderful human being that is going to be missed terribly," Patterson said.Dabney is being held at the Lee County Jail without bond.0 Comments 0 Shares 13 Views 0 Reviews

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMGiants stick with Russell Wilson for Week 2 despite disappointing debut in loss to CommandersThe New York Giants were disappointing once again in the opening of a new NFL season, begging the question from fans: How long is Russell Wilsons leash at quarterback?Its long enough for another week, at least, as head coach Brian Daboll said on Monday after the 21-6 loss to the Washington Commanders on the road that Wilson will practice this week as the teams starter before their game against the Dallas Cowboys."Russ will be the starter," he said when asked by reporters at the teams facility in East Rutherford, New Jersey.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMDaboll was asked immediately after the game if Wilson is still his guy moving forward, and he left it open for interpretation after not being definitive. The Giants traded back into the first round to grab Jaxson Dart, their hopeful quarterback of the future. After a strong preseason, Dart is waiting for his first regular-season opportunity."Its an emotional game. Its a tough game. Didnt play particularly well, I would say collectively. But in terms of making any of those decisionsreally at any position or schematic changesId like to do it with a clear head and watch the tape," Daboll said. "Again, like I said yesterday, that game doesnt fall on Russell Wilson. Weve got to do a better job collectivelycoaching, playingbut Russ will be the starter."MALIK NABERS, BRIAN DABOLL CLASH DURING GIANTS' DISAPPOINTING SEASON OPENER AGAINST COMMANDERSWilsons Giants regular-season debut didnt go according to plan. He was just 17-of-37 for 168 yards with a 45.9% completion rate in the loss. But as Daboll mentioned, the entire loss wasnt on Wilson.The quarterback has been the punching bag for Giants fans for the last few seasons. Daniel Jones, who had a phenomenal debut with the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, was ousted midseason in 2024 due to poor performance. But once again, the Giants offensive line proved to be a major issue contributing to the poor production.Wilson was pressured on 22 of his 45 dropbacksan almost 50% ratewhich isnt going to get the job done on game day. Because of the amount of pressure, Wilson wasnt going through his reads and had to get the ball out quickly, resulting in missed throws and minimal gains.The Giants also extended a horrible streak, as they didnt score a touchdown in their third straight season openerthe first time since the 1940-42 Detroit Lions. They have combined for 12 total points in their last three season openers.But Daboll, who is certainly on the hot seat entering this season with owner John Mara wanting to see better results in the win-loss column, will be sticking with the veteran signal-caller instead of going with the rookie heading into another divisional matchup against the Cowboys, who are also 0-1 after falling to the Philadelphia Eagles on "Thursday Night Football."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.0 Comments 0 Shares 13 Views 0 Reviews

Its like, Oh, we came out with another and then the Goonies grew up and then they came out with their walkers and then they fell off a cliff because they couldnt see very well. What are you going to do? I dont know."While Brolin has his reservations, he is confident that "if Spielberg approves it, you know its going to be good."Spielberg and Chris Columbus wrote the script for the original film, with Columbus also returning as a producer on the sequel.

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMIryna Zarutska fled Ukraine for safety but Democrats' soft-on-crime policies failed herIryna Zarutska fled war-torn Ukraine seeking safety but America failed her.Zarutska, a 23-year-old daughter and sister, escaped the horrors of war and sought a new beginning in the United States. Instead, she was brutally stabbed to death while riding a Charlotte light rail. In a horrific attack caught on camera, her throat was cut by a violent repeat offender with 14 prior arrests. Which begs the question: Why was a violent criminal with 14 arrests free to roam our streets? Sadly, such chaos is a common occurrence in a Democrat-run city.This was not a random act. It was a preventable tragedy, a failure of our system to protect the vulnerable. America failed Zarutska, and we must ensure it does not fail others like her.CHILLING VIDEO SHOWS MOMENTS BEFORE UKRAINIAN REFUGEE STABBED TO DEATH ON CHARLOTTE LIGHT RAILAs a representative of North Carolina, I am heartbroken and outraged by what happened so close to home. This incident reflects a broader crisis unfolding across our nation, where soft-on-crime policies allow dangerous criminals to evade accountability. Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles has claimed, "We will never arrest our way out of issues such as homelessness and mental health." I disagree.Though addressing root causes is important, we cannot ignore the immediate need to protect our communities by ensuring repeat offenders face consequences. Loving our neighbors means protecting them from people who have no business walking our streets.The Lefts approach of prioritizing leniency for offenders over justice for victims has left too many, like Iryna, vulnerable. In Democrat-led cities, from Charlotte to Chicago, we see a troubling pattern of downplaying lawlessness while overlooking the pain of those who suffer.81% OF AMERICANS SEE CRIME AS A 'MAJOR PROBLEM' IN BIG CITIES, NEW POLL SHOWSMedia outlets sometimes amplify this narrative, portraying criminals as victims of circumstance while ignoring the real victims families torn apart, communities living in fear, and lives like Irynas cut short.This approach has devastating consequences. Zarutska deserved better. America deserves better.The violence in Charlotte is a microcosm of a national epidemic. Over Labor Day weekend in Chicago, at least eight people were killed and 58 others were injured in shootings across the city. Gov. J.B. Pritzker claims crime is under control, but the numbers tell a different story.Across the country, cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia report similar challenges, with 81% of Americans citing crime as a major issue in recent polls. The public is demanding action and theyre right to do so.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONPresident Donald Trump has shown that a tough-on-crime approach works. Since August 2025, the Trump administrations crackdown in Washington bolstered by federal law enforcement and National Guard support has led to over 1,900 arrests and the seizure of more than 200 illegal firearms in the capital. A 12-day stretch without a homicide marked a sharp break from D.C.s historical average of a murder every other day.This common-sense enforcement demonstrates that decisive action can yield real progress. Even Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser could not argue with the numbers.Sadly, Democrat policies too often protect illegal aliens, criminals, terrorists, and gang members, leaving American communities exposed to violence. Republicans prioritize the safety of law-abiding citizens over the feelings of criminals.To address this crisis, we need a balanced approach: immediate, robust law enforcement to remove dangerous offenders from our streets and long-term investments to tackle the root causes of crime. It also means reforming bail systems to ensure violent repeat offenders are not easily released to harm innocent people like Zarutska.Zarutskas death is a call to action. America must be a place of safety and peace.I urge my Democratic colleagues to join Republicans in putting victims first, supporting law enforcement, and investing in our communities. Together, we can honor Iryna Zarutskas memory by building a safer, stronger America one where no 23-year-old woman fears being stabbed by a repeat offender who appeared to be just a stranger sitting behind her on a train.0 Comments 0 Shares 16 Views 0 Reviews
