    Trump arrives at Yankee Stadium, gives speech to team ahead of 9/11 anniversary game
    President Donald Trump arrived at Yankee Stadium on Thursday and spoke to the New York Yankees ahead of their 9/11 anniversary game against the Detroit Tigers.Trump landed in New York shortly after 6 p.m., and a couple of hours earlier, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Trump was meeting with the team in the clubhouse before the game."Had the honor and fortune of some presidents over the years, first pitches or whatever it may be. So the fact that hes gonna be here, Im excited to be a part of. I dont know what itll be like, but to interact with him for a few minutes, something Im looking forward to," Boone said.Thursday marked the first time Trump attended a Major League Baseball game since the 2021 World Series between the Houston Astros and Atlanta Braves after his presidential term. Prior to Thursday, his last game as a sitting president was in the 2019 World Series between the Astros and Washington Nationals.Trump announced earlier this month that he would attend the game. The Yankees announced it on Wednesday and urged fans to arrive early and take public transportation. Gates opened at 4 p.m. ET, 90 minutes earlier than normal.Prior to Trump's arrival, the Yankees scoreboard showed highlights of the 2001 World Series between the Yankees and Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks won the series in seven games, but the Yankees' victories in Games 4 and 5 both ended in dramatic walk-offs, less than two months after the Sept. 11 attacks.Already guaranteed to have a heightened presence, in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, security was boosted throughout the ballpark with the Secret Service and sniffer dogs outside the gates.Boone, Gerrit Cole, and Carlos Rodon laid a wreath at the 9/11 monument in Monument Park earlier Thursday.Next season, the Yankees and New York Mets will face off at Yankee Stadium on the 25th anniversary of the attacks. They played at Citi Field on Sept. 11, 2021.This is a breaking news story. Check back for updates.

    Chicago-area mayor, congressional candidate brags about lengths he's gone to flummox ICE
    A Chicago-area mayor and congressional candidate stood by his actions to thwart even passive cooperation with federal immigration enforcement operations, as DHS launches "Operation Midway Blitz" in the area.Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss, a Democrat who is running to succeed retiring Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., in 2026, told CNN he is "in the dark" as to DHS plans for Illinois in the coming days.He also said he informed residents on Tuesday about his concerns and what actions he took in response."The Trump administration wants to keep us guessing, wants to use our uncertainty to keep us afraid, but the reason that we communicated with our residents this morning is that I got information from a senior state official last night indicating that they had good intel that it was likely that ICE would be coming to Evanston in today and in the coming days."CHICAGO MAYOR CONCLUDES COUNCIL-DEMANDED PROBE OF CITY POLICES ROLE DURING RECENT ICE RAIDBiss said he did so in order for residents to "protect themselves" from federal law enforcement."We've been doing everything we can to protect our residents from before Donald Trump took office, passing strong sanctuary laws to make sure police are not cooperating with federal civil immigration enforcement," he added.Biss explained he ordered Evanstons license plate cameras turned off after learning the data was being shared.Unlike red light cameras, which issue tickets, license plate readers are often used to collect and store vehicle data for later retrieval.In some cases, state or federal law enforcement might use the data to track a suspects known vehicle, finding that it navigated a certain interchange at a specific time.CHICAGO MAYOR CALLS ICE RAIDS TERRORISM, SAYS TRUMP'S AMERICA APPEARS AS IF THE CONFEDERACY HAD WONFox News Digital reached out to Biss for further comment but did not hear back by press time.In a separate video Biss recorded while leaving a Mexican Independence Day parade in Chicago, he said he used his "rapid response training to keep an eye out for potential ICE personnel" during the event and "if possible, keep people safe from attack.""My responsibility was to see which masked individual might, with no warning, just grab people off the street [or] which uniformed personnel might, without warning, attack our people."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"We're going to remember for a long time what we did in this moment. Let's do the right thing," Biss said.When an X account tied to the Republican National Committee accused Biss of wrongly obstructing federal procedure, he offered a veiled slam at President Donald Trump in return:"Hey, speaking of obstructing things, hows it going with releasing the Epstein files?"Separately, Biss added, that authoritarianism is not creeping into society, but "is here.""History will remember how Chicago stood in solidarity in this moment. Stay strong, stay safe," he said.

    Aaron Boone 'excited' for President Trump to attend Yankees game, discusses playing in New York on 9/11
    President Donald Trump will be in the Bronx on Thursday night for the New York Yankees' game against the Detroit Tigers, coinciding with the 24th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.It will be Trump's first time attending a baseball game in his second term as president, having last attended the 2021 World Series.Yankees manager Aaron Boone said at a press conference before the game that he is "excited" to be a part of Trump's presence.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"I think hes going to come down and come into the locker room for a minute. Had the honor and fortune of some presidents over the years, first pitches or whatever it may be," Boone told reporters before the game. "So the fact that hes gonna be here, Im excited to be a part of. I dont know what itll be like, but to interact with him for a few minutes, something Im looking forward to."Security is boosted to TSA levels at Yankee Stadium, which includes sniffing dogs on the premises. Trump was at the Pentagon earlier in the day for a 9/11 ceremony, less than 24 hours after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated.Boone is in his eighth season as Yankees manager, becoming a de facto New Yorker during his tenure. But at the time of the attacks, he was with the Cincinnati Reds organization. However, the sport of baseball played a vital role in bringing normalcy back.SPORTS WORLD REACTS TO CHARLIE KIRK SHOOTING DEATH: 'PRAYERS FOR HIS FAMILY'"Making sense of it and what it all meant, and now with my connection to the Yankees and knowing what the Yankees, the Mets, and really baseball overall, the role that our sport played in whatever it was. Healing, normalcy, something. To see that postseason live out and watching it from afar was very meaningful. And then the sobering reflection of today of the lives lost, the heroic things that took place on that day by so many. So its always a sobering day, a day of reflection, but also a day of as a sport, theres some pride in the role our sport played in that time," Boone said.Before the gates opened, Boone and pitchers Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodon laid a wreath at the 9/11 monument in Monument Park. Boone said the gesture was "really meaningful.""Really meaningful. Ive gotten to do that a few times when weve been here. To get to walk out there with Gerrit and Carlos and just really take in an amazing monument, see the Pentagon and see the Twin Towers and the police dogs and the firemen all honored on there. Hits home," he said."I think you just wake up, and its different today. A couple years ago, we had the game over at Citi Field where it was Mets-Yankees, and there was some bigness and meaningfulness to that. Knowing how many personal stories there are to the people that will be in the building tonight, the people that were in the building that night at Citi Field, and to field that kind of raw emotion in the building, you just look around, you see people with tears in their eyes, that buzz but silence. And I felt that a number of times in this chair on this day."The Yanks and Mets will play at Yankee Stadium on Sept. 11 next year, the 25th anniversary of the attacks.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    Charlie Kirk warned assassination culture is spreading on the left in eerie online post months before murder
    Several months prior to Wednesday's tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, the slain 31-year-old conservative activist warned his followers on social media that "assassination culture is spreading on the left."Kirk shared a post April 7 on X.com that cited a Fox News Digital article about a nationally representative study from the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), which found 38% of respondents said it would be at least "somewhat justified" to murder President Donald Trump, and 31% said the same about Elon Musk. But the numbers jump even higher, to 55% for Trump and 48% for Musk, when counting just the left-leaning survey respondents."Assassination culture is spreading on the left. Forty-eight percent of liberals say it would be at least somewhat justified to murder Elon Musk. Fifty-five percent said the same about Donald Trump," Kirk wrote in his post on X, citing the NCRI report. "The left is being whipped into a violent frenzy. Any setback, whether losing an election or losing a court case, justifies a maximally violent response."ANTI-TRUMP VOICES PRAISE CHARLIE KIRK'S LEGACY AFTER ASSASSINATION, SAY HE WAS DOING POLITICS 'THE RIGHT WAY'Kirk called the violent momentum a "natural outgrowth of left-wing protest culture." He accused the culture of tolerating "violence and mayhem," while also slamming "the cowardice" of local prosecutors and school officials for their complicity in promoting the trend of violent attitudes."The cowardice of local prosecutors and school officials have turned the left into a ticking time bomb," Kirk wrote in his post.In Kirk's post, he also pointed to the fact that voters in California were effectively eulogizing United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson's murderer Luigi Mangione by naming a state ballot measure after him. It was called the Luigi Mangione Access to Health Care Act, which sought to make it harder for medical insurance companies to deny claims for treatments or medications. Wednesday's horrific assassination of Kirk, who founded the grassroots conservative advocacy group Turning Point USA in 2012, is just the latest incident of conservative figures and institutions being targeted with violence. The fatal shooting comes amid a record over the past four years of conservatives and Republicans encountering violence, a Fox News Digital review found, including two assassination attempts on Trump within about a two-month period in 2024.CHARLIE KIRK PAINTED AS 'CONTROVERSIAL,' 'PROVOCATIVE' IN MEDIAS ASSASSINATION COVERAGEEarlier this year, the New Mexico Republican Party's headquarters faced an arson attack that destroyed the entrance to its Albuquerque headquarters, while graffiti reading "ICE=KKK" was scrawled on the building. The suspect in that case also allegedly attacked a Tesla Albuquerque Showroom and was hit with federal charges.The spate of violent incidents at the beginning of this year targeting Tesla car owners, dealerships, charging stations and Republicans in general, compelled some GOP lawmakers to cancel public events. GOP Wyoming Rep. Harriet Hageman was one of those lawmakers. Her decision came after an incident in which an attendee of one of her town halls followed Hageman as she left and initiated a physical confrontation with her staff, eventually requiring police to intervene.A handful of pro-life activists were also physically attacked this year, including a pro-life journalist who was punched by an interviewee mid-discussion.TPUSA chapters around the nation have faced other incidents of violence this year as well, including when a group of students with Turning Point USA were attacked by masked individuals at University of California, Davis in April, Fox News previously reported. The conservative group was hosting one of its frequently held "Prove Me Wrong" events on the campus, when protesters destroyed camera gear, a tent, and signs at the event. They also flipped tables and assaulted TPUSA staff, the group said after the incident happened.Going back to 2023, former NCAA swimmer and conservative political activist Riley Gaines was attacked and barricaded by protesters in a room at San Francisco State University after she went to campus to speak to students about banning biological males who identify as transgender from competing in women's sports. The event was part of a Turning Point USA and Leadership Institute forum that was taking place on the university's campus.Meanwhile, Churches and pro-life groups have faced dozens upon dozens of attacks dating back to 2022 following the Supreme Courts Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, which effectively ended the recognition of abortion as a constitutional right.The attacks included a "firebombed" pro-life center in Buffalo, New York, in 2022, vandalized Catholic churches that were targets of arson attacks, and pro-choice protesters interrupting faith services. The attacks came after a far-left pro-choice group declared in a public letter that it was "open season" on pro-lifers.Notably, in 2017, then-House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., was shot along with three others when James Hodgkinson, a deranged Bernie Sanders supporter, fired upon an Alexandria, Virginia, baseball field as Republican lawmakers practiced for the annual Congressional Baseball Game. Scalise, who nearly died but ultimately recovered, remains in office and is currently the House Majority Leader for the Republicans.

    Leftist Wikipedia editors twist facts in shameless move to smear Charlie Kirk
    In the aftermath of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, America is searching for answers. But on Wikipedia, a different kind of search is underway. Editors on the site are pushing a left-wing narrative about Kirk, one thats subtle but for that precise reason highly effective.The attack on Kirk begins in the very first sentence of the Wikipedia article, which identifies him as "right-wing." That may seem unobjectionable in itself, but a look at Wikipedia articles on comparable figures from the left reveals no such politicized framing. For example, the article on former Obama adviser David Plouffe identifies him as an "American political and business strategist," and MSNBC host and political analyst Al Sharpton is described as an "American civil rights and social justice activist." Although the articles do describe their partisan activities, they aren't called liberal or leftist in them at all.Plouffe was even "invited to join" ACRONYM, "a liberal nonprofit." But hes not called "liberal."The attack continues further down in the Kirk articles lead paragraphs, where editors said Kirk was controversial due to his "opposition togun control,abortion, andLGBTQ rights; his criticism of theCivil Rights Act of 1964 andMartin Luther King Jr.; and his promotion ofChristian nationalism,COVID-19 misinformation, theGreat Replacement conspiracy theory, andfalse claims of electoral fraud in 2020."COMPLETE COVERAGE OF CHARLIE KIRKThe framing ensures that anyone searching for Kirk in the wake of his murder is met with a narrative designed to discredit him.Even more critically, the lede disproportionately feeds Googles knowledge panel and search results, as well as top AI platforms. When I ask ChatGPT, "Did Charlie Kirk promote conspiracy theories?" it answers: "Yes, Charlie Kirk, the conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, actively promoted several conspiracy theories throughout his career." To support this, ChatGPT cites five "conspiracy theories" spread by Kirk three pulled directly from the list above. In four of the five cases, ChatGPT cites only one source: Wikipedia.One way Wikipedia editors stage an attack is by cross-linking allegations across articles. The allegation, made in the main "Charlie Kirk" article that he was a proponent of "Christian nationalism," links to a separate article that asserts this view is "noted to bear overlap withChristian fundamentalism,[W]hite supremacy,Christian supremacy, theSeven Mountain Mandate movement, anddominionism."In a newly created article, "Killing of Charlie Kirk," editors write Kirk "utilized his skills in social media and campus organizing to become a highly influential figure in the hard-right movement," citing an article in The New York Times.DAVID MARCUS: PROGRESSIVE MADNESS KILLED CHARLIE KIRK, A ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION LEADERIn a dedicated section in Kirks main article, "Promotion of falsehoods and conspiracy theories," Wikipedia editors initially accused Kirk of promoting "the antisemitic Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory." Kirk was widely known as one of the most influential supporters of American Jews in the country.The article has since been changed to say that Kirk "promoted the Cultural Marxism conspiracy theory and described universities as islands of totalitarianism." One of the articles it links to in citation is a 2019 article in the Journal of Social Justice headlined, "Whos Afraid of the Frankfurt School? Cultural Marxism as an Antisemitic Conspiracy Theory."CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONHours after his murder, in the "Gun Control" section of the articles Talk page, where editors debate proposed edits, one editor recommended "noting Kirk's relevance as both an opposition to gun control and as a gun control statistic." Another editor argued that a 2023 speech by Kirk where he noted the unfortunate consequence of gun deaths while expressing his support for Second Amendment rights "would show his willingness to accept this outcome" of his own murder. The quote from that speech remains in the Kirk article itself.An analysis of the news sources used as references in the "Charlie Kirk" article shows a majority of the sources are left or left-leaning, as categorized by AllSides. These include multiple citations from The New York Times, Washington Post, Politico, The Guardian and CNN.CHARLIE KIRK, TURNING POINT USA FOUNDER, DEAD AT 31 AFTER UTAH CAMPUS SHOOTINGThis bias has not gone unnoticed in Washington. In August, the House Oversight Committee opened a formal investigation into the Wikimedia Foundation, which owns and operates the site, demanding documents and records to determine whether foreign or ideological manipulation is shaping content on the worlds most influential source of online information. Naturally, the Wikimedia Foundation didn't respond to my inquiry.At its core, Wikipedia is a wrapper for the mainstream media. Its infamous "Reliable Sources" list of news outlets that can be used as references and sources Wikipedia editors consider to be "reliable" as green and those they deem "unreliable" as red. The green sites read like a semi-official list of the mainstream media: New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, NBC News, CBS News, ABC News, Associated Press. It disproportionately marks conservative outlets as unreliable, while giving a neutral rating to the Chinese propaganda outlet China Daily.Clearly, something at Wikipedia needs to change. But if the mainstream media that the site relies on is any indication, thats not likely to happen any time soon. In the meantime, the site that disproportionately feeds AI and powers Google will remain a battleground where far-left ideology gets laundered into the mainstream almost unchecked.

    Longtime friend of Charlie Kirk calls him the 'nicest man' he's ever met
    Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirks longtime friend and Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz honored his late friends memory Thursday on "The Story.""Its been a really tough 24 hours, and I lost a friend of mine since I was 16 years old," Bruesewitz told Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum. The two friends collaborated on Bruesewitz's book "Winning the Social Media War," with Kirk having written the foreword. Both have worked to expand President Donald Trumps appeal to young voters.FOX NEWS PERSONALITIES OFFER EMOTIONAL TRIBUTES TO CHARLIE KIRK: 'HE LOVED AMERICA SO MUCH'Bruesewitz, who is three years younger than Kirk, described him as the "nicest man" hes ever met."[Kirk] would never hurt anyone," Bruesewitz said. "It breaks my heart that it was him who got hurt. He only wanted to have conversations with people. He only wanted to debate people. He didn't use violence, he didn't use violent rhetoric. He just spoke the truth."ANTI-TRUMP VOICES PRAISE CHARLIE KIRK'S LEGACY AFTER ASSASSINATION, SAY HE WAS DOING POLITICS 'THE RIGHT WAY'The political strategist went on to blast the "sick ideology" he says America is up against."The radical Left for too long has been perpetrating this hate on innocent people like the president, who got nearly shot twice," Bruesewitz argued.He ridiculed negative coverage of Kirk, specifically from politicians who "kiss your a--" in private but "spew hate" on TV."These people don't even believe what they say, but they say it anyway because they want to get television hits on MSNBC or CNN," Bruesewitz argued.CHARLIE KIRK PAINTED AS 'CONTROVERSIAL,' 'PROVOCATIVE' IN MEDIAS ASSASSINATION COVERAGE"It's sick," he continued. "And every single person that has said a hateful thing about Charlie or about the president or about any of us must immediately apologize and cease from saying it further. It's a disgrace."Former MSNBC analyst Matthew Dowd was fired Wednesday shortly after calling Kirk "one of the most divisive" figures who was "constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech or sort of aimed at certain groups.""Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words," Dowd said.Afterward, MSNBC issued an apology in a statement."During our breaking news coverage of the shooting of Charlie Kirk, Matthew Dowd made comments that were inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable," the statement said. "We apologize for his statements, as has he. There is no place for violence in America, political or otherwise."

    Fox News Poll: Trumps ratings are strong on border security, weak on the economy
    While President Donald Trump receives positive reviews on border security and public safety, the economy remains a weakness. Prices are a problem for most voters, as only a small number feel they are getting ahead financially, and more than half think things are worse under the new White House.By a 22-point margin, a Fox News national survey finds that more voters say the Trump administration has made the economy worse (52%) rather than better (30%). Those sentiments are almost identical to how they felt about the Biden administration and are the reverse of how voters felt eight years ago during Trumps first term.FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS SUPPORT A THIRD POLITICAL PARTY, BUT NOT IF ITS ELON MUSKSThe survey was completed before Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirks assassination Wednesday.Ratings of the economy continue to be negative by more than 2-to-1 (71% negative vs. 29% positive). Thats roughly where things stood when Trump took office.And as has been the case for more than four years, fewer than 15% say they are getting ahead financially, while at least three times that number say they are falling behind.FOX NEWS POLL: SUPPORT FOR DEPORTATION DEPENDS ON WHO IS BEING TARGETEDYet in some areas, voters say things are not as bad. A year ago, 48% said gas prices were a "major" problem for their family. Now 33% feel that way, down 15 points. Likewise, a smaller share says housing costs (by 11 points) and grocery prices (by 8 points) are a major problem.Its the opposite on utility (+2 points) and healthcare costs (+7), as more people call those a major problem.Still, large majorities describe each of these costs as either a minor or major problem."The question former President Biden's team was asking a year ago was whether voters would get used to an$8 dollar box of cereal, and the answer was no," says Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who conducts Fox News surveys with his Democratic counterpart, Chris Anderson. "I think the Trump team is finding this dynamic still holds. It's not enough that prices aren't rising, they need to come down. If not, 2026 will be a bad year for the GOP."Voters persistent negativity about the economy was at least somewhat validated by a recent Labor Department report that showed the 2024 employment estimates were much weaker than initially thought.The economy remains by far the most important issue to voters (37%). Thats followed by immigration and border security (13%), healthcare (11%), and political division (11%). All other issues are in single digits, including crime and guns. Notably, Democrats, Republicans, and independents agree the economy is the top issue facing the country.Looking ahead, voters are pessimistic: 62% think life will be worse for the next generation of Americans. Thats up from 53% who felt that way a year ago and is the second highest in Fox News surveys going back to 2002. By a 10-point margin, optimism is higher among parents (44%) than non-parents (34%), and by a 13-point margin, more dads (50%) than moms (37%) think life will be better for their kids. Eight in 10 Democrats and independents think life will be worse, while 6 in 10 Republicans think it will be better. A year ago, nearly 6 in 10 Democrats said life would be better for the next generation, while 7 in 10 Republicans and 6 in 10 independents said worse.Approval of Trump on the economy stands at 39%, only one tick higher than his record low, and even fewer voters approve of his handling of tariffs (36%) and the cost of living (32%).While Trumps ratings are better on immigration (47% approve) and crime (50%), his best marks are on border security, as 57% approve. Thats not only a record on border security, but its also his second-highest approval ever on any issue in a Fox News survey (the highest was 60% for "recent hurricanes" in 2017). In addition, 49% approve of ICE, up from 46% in June.Fewer are concerned about crime in their neighborhood: 32% are extremely or very concerned, down from 48% in 2021.Over half approve of the federal government generally playing a role in policing crime in large cities (53%) and specifically of Trump sending National Guard troops to help the police in Washington, D.C. (51%).Currently, 46% like the job Trump is doing overall, while 54% disapprove. His highest approval this term was 49% in March, soon after taking office. Fully 88% of Republicans approve, as do 55% of men under age 45 and 48% of Hispanics. Among all voters, a larger number strongly disapproves of Trump (45%) than strongly approves (25%). That 20-point intensity gap is mostly unchanged since March and is comparable with Bidens ratings for most of his term.Some 46% of voters also approve of the job Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is doing as secretary of Health and Human Services. His ratings are higher among parents (53%) and dads (57%) than non-parents (43%) and moms (49%).Forty-nine percent approve of Jerome Powells performance as chair of the Federal Reserve. About half of those approving of Trump also approve of Powell, and vice versa.Two-thirds of voters think the country has become less united since Trump took office. Thats double the number who feel he has brought people together, and worse than the 54% who felt Biden was dividing the country four years ago.Trumps personal favorable rating is in line with his job approval: 43% view him favorably and 57% unfavorably, for a net negative by 14 points. Vice President JD Vance (-12), former Vice President Kamala Harris (-13), Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (-12), and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (-11) all have about the same net negative favorability as Trump. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzkers marks are underwater by 13 points, yet he is unknown to nearly half of voters.CLICK HERE FOR CROSSTABS AND TOPLINEThree quarters think the president should "always" follow the law, while one quarter say the U.S. is so far off track it needs a president who will "break some laws" to set things right. Those sentiments have remained unchanged since December 2023. Three times as many Republicans as Democrats think the U.S. needs a president willing to break some laws to set things right.More voters have confidence in their local courts (66%) than in federal courts (58%) or the Supreme Court (55%). Far more Republicans (78%) have faith in the Supreme Court than independents (47%) and Democrats (34%), while majorities of all three groups have confidence in their local courts.Conducted Sept. 6-9, 2025, under the direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News survey includes interviews with a sample of 1,004 registered voters randomly selected from a national voter file. Respondents spoke with live interviewers on landlines (119) and cellphones (638) or completed the survey online after receiving a text (247). Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of 3 percentage points. Sampling error for results among subgroups is higher. In addition to sampling error, question wording and order can influence results. Weights are generally applied to age, race, education, and area variables to ensure the demographics are representative of the registered voter population. Sources for developing weight targets include the American Community Survey, Fox News Voter Analysis, and voter file data.Fox News Victoria Balara contributed to this report.

    Fox News Poll: Voters want greater involvement in Ukraine, support current approach in Israel
    As international conflicts intensify, the highest share of voters prefer that the United States increases support for Ukraine while thinking the current approach in Israel is appropriate.The latest Fox News national survey, released Thursday, also finds that while a majority continues to support the Israelis, a record-high 41% back the Palestinians in the conflict.Support for the Palestinians is up 9 points since March and up 23 points since October 2023, shortly after the Hamas attacks.Compared to March, support for the Palestinians is up across the board, but most notably among Republicans (+6 points) and independents (+15). The Palestinians receive some of their strongest support from voters under age 30 (67%), very liberal voters (67%), Democrats (59%), and nonwhite voters (55%).FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS SUPPORT A THIRD POLITICAL PARTY, BUT NOT IF IT'S ELON MUSK'SThe backing for Israelis (55%) has been largely stable since January, with support peaking at 68% in October 2023.Regarding the level of U.S. support for Israel, the bulk of voters feels its about right (43%), up 8 points since last year. Still, by 14 points, more think the U.S. is too supportive (35%) rather than not supportive enough (21%).Five in 10 Democrats view U.S. backing of Israel as too supportive, while 6 in 10 Republicans think the backing is about right. Independents are split: 39% too supportive, 27% not enough, 34% about right.FOX NEWS POLL: THE GOP IS SEEN AS MORE LIKELY TO HAVE A CLEAR PLAN FOR THE COUNTRYWhile a majority of voters blame Hamas for the famine in Gaza (80% very or somewhat responsible), more than two-thirds also feel Israel is responsible (68%). Democrats fault each group about equally (81% Israel, 78% Hamas) while more Republicans (57% Israel, 85% Hamas) and Independents (64% Israel, 71% Hamas) blame Hamas.CLICK HERE FOR CROSSTABS AND TOPLINEMeanwhile, by a 10 percentage-point margin, voters think the U.S. should be doing more to help Ukraine in its war with Russia (39% more vs. 29% less), with another one-third (31%) thinking the effort is adequate.Sentiment remains mostly unchanged since July but is a reversal from a year ago when voters thought we should be doing less by 17 points (40% less, 23% more, 34% about right).The increase in support for helping Ukraine comes mainly from Democrats (+30 points) and independents (+18 points), as views among Republicans shifted toward the U.S. is doing the right amount (+19).President Donald Trump has spoken to both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during the last few weeks to broker a peace deal but to no avail thus far. Trump garners better ratings for his handling of Ukraine (40% approve, 59% disapprove) than on Russia (36% vs. 62%) but is still underwater on both.Some 46% approve of the job the president is doing overall, while 54% disapprove.Conducted Sept. 6-9, 2025, under the direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News survey includes interviews with a sample of 1,004 registered voters randomly selected from a national voter file.

    On 9/11 anniversary, lawmakers warn domestic terrorism now greatest threat
    On the 24th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, members of Congress on both sides of the political aisle expressed that they are most worried about rising domestic terrorism impacting Americans.Asked whether he was more concerned about domestic or foreign terrorists, Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., told Fox News Digital, "Youve got to be vigilant on all of it."Yet, in the wake of the assassination of conservative leader Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, he placed particular blame on the left, saying, "Theyve got blood on their hands on this one, there is no question.""The repercussions, I think, could be monumental at the ballot box," said Burchett.24 YEARS AFTER 9/11, A FATHER'S EXTRAORDINARY HEROISM STILL INSPIRES TWO POWERFUL PATHS OF AMERICAN SERVICERep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, responded that"we need a country that respects the rule of law and can actually engage in civil discourse. We don't have that right now. That's a problem.""We have threats from all around, overseas and here, but you know we got to start respecting the rule of law again or we're not going to have anything left," added Roy.In the current climate, Rep. Jodey Arrington, R-Texas, responded, "I think domestic," adding, "its not a matter of if but when.""You can't let your guard down on either," added Arrington, recalling, "I was in the White House on 9/11 with George W. Bush."Arrington expressed particular concern about terrorists who were let into the country through the border."You also can't allow your border to be wide open where you have people, record numbers of people, on the terrorist watch list over here," he said.GOP LAWMAKER EXPLAINS UNUSUAL 9/11 EXPERIENCE THAT LED HIM TO ENLIST IN THE MILITARYAnother Texas Republican, Rep. Troy Nehls, also said he is worried about terrorists let into the country by the Biden administration."What we have seen with all the terrorism, with the individuals coming across our southern border for the past four years and preying on innocent victims in our country, killing Laken Riley and everyone else, I mean these individuals coming over here, Tren de Aragua, I consider those terrorists, right? Coming over here and causing harm and impact."Like Roy, Nehls also lamented violence by "American people against American people with a dissenting point of view.""We can't have a casual conversation and agree to disagree. We're going to start raising our fists or start pointing guns and start shooting people," said Nehls, adding, "It's gone too far."Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., said that though the international terrorist threat is "still there," he believes "we do have an increased domestic problem because we've lost our moorings a little bit spiritually.""A lot of folks dont have hope or purpose, a spiritual hope or purpose. And then you have all this demonization and people get caught up in it. You get caught up in your own little websites. Social media, your own cable, and then these guys feed on anger," he said.TRUMP RELEASES OVAL OFFICE MESSAGE ON CHARLIE KIRK'S ASSASSINATION: 'HE'S A MARTYR FOR TRUTH AND FREEDOM'Democrats, too, said they are extremely worried about domestic terrorist threats."Domestic terrorism keeps me up at night," said Rep.

Ritchie Torres, R-N.Y., said, "I worry in the age of social media, I think we're witnessing the rise of violent extremism and domestic terrorism both at home and abroad."Torres added that "the safety of public figures can no longer be taken for granted.""I have lost an incentive to do public events without extensive safety precautions," he shared, adding, "I suspect that anxiety is weighing heavily on every member of Congress."
