We have terminated an advisory board member that made inappropriate remarks in light of recent events and they are no longer associated with the Foundation," the statement read.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Their comments do not reflect our values or our mission. We are committed to accountability and respect for all."Berry was listed as a member of the advisory board previously on the foundations website. The statement did not name Berry or directly reference Kirks killing. Fox News Digital reached out to the organization for a statement to clarify whether Berry was the member terminated.Ohio State Rep. Adam Mathews shared the foundations statement on social media and confirmed to Fox News Digital Tuesday that Berry was the advisory board member terminated by the foundation. The Republican lawmaker previously released a statement calling for the judges resignation after social media comments that Mathews said celebrated Kirks killing "with vitriolic, racially charged and political language."CUBS HONOR 'LIFELONG' FAN CHARLIE KIRK WITH 'MOMENT OF REFLECTION' AFTER UTAH ASSASSINATION"A judge must be a pillar of fairness and impartiality in our community," Mathews said. "To see a sitting judge post comments like 'Rest in Hatred & Division!', ask 'How's he feel about gun violence & gun control in Hell, now?', and then celebrate the race of the killer by stating 'So, a white guy killed him! Color it KARMA!' is shocking and completely unacceptable."This is not the conduct of a neutral arbiter of the law; it is the behavior of a political activist who has abandoned the core principles of his office."Mathews warned that if Berry did not resign from his position, he would file a formal grievance with the Supreme Court of Ohio's Office of Disciplinary Counsel.Berry, who is due to retire in January 2026, toldThe Cincinnati Enquirer he does not "condone any type of violence on any human being.""I regret if I caused division," he continued. "That was not my intent. And I hope there can be peace."Berry could not be reached by Fox News Digital for comment. Hamilton County Democratic Party Chair Alex Linser told FOX 19 that in response to Berry's "disappointing and divisive comments," the judge would not be recognized at an upcoming judicial event.In a statement to Fox News Digital, Mathews commended Linser for his response and renewed calls for the judge's resignation."As a follow-up, I am pleased to see fellow attorney and Chairman of the Democratic Party Alex Linser speak out against Ted Berrys behavior and stripping Berry out of their upcoming fundraising celebration of judges. It's the right decision. The bipartisan condemnation of his horrific and racist language is proof that we can come together. Ted Berry must resign."Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Attorney General Pam Bondi is receiving pushback on social media from both liberals and conservatives after she suggested that "hate speech" could be prosecuted under the law during a podcast interview on Monday.The attorney general took to X on Tuesday to clarify her position, noting that hate speech would only be prosecuted when the language used crosses the line of calling for violence."Hate speech that crosses the line into threats of violence is NOT protected by the First Amendment. Its a crime," Bondi wrote. "For far too long, weve watched the radical left normalize threats, call for assassinations, and cheer on political violence. That era is over."FOLLOWING KIRKS ASSASSINATION, LAWMAKERS REACT TO LETHAL POLITICAL CLIMATE: 'VIOLENT WORDS PRECEDE VIOLENT ACTIONS'While speaking to Katie Miller, the wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, on her podcast Monday, Bondi stated that the federal government will "target" those who leverage hate speech against others following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk."Theres free speech and then theres hate speech, and there is no place, especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie, in our society," Bondi said. "We will absolutely target you, go after you, if you are targeting anyone with hate speech."Bondi was criticized on social media by individuals from both ends of the political spectrum, whose primary argument was that there is no hate speech exception to the First Amendment.BONDI VOWS TO 'PROTECT EVERY RELIGION IN THIS COUNTRY' AFTER WRAY-ERA CONTROVERSYConservative broadcaster Erick Erickson slammed Bondi as a "moron" and bluntly told the attorney general, "No maam. That is not the law."Fox News' Brit Hume also took a stance against Bondi's comments, noting that while hate speech may be repulsive, it is protected by the First Amendment.WHOOPI GOLDBERG CALLS CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSINATION 'BEYOND DEVASTATING' FOR AMERICAN DISCOURSEConservative commentator Maggie Moda said that Bondi sounded like "every constitutionally illiterate liberal youve debated over the past ten years," and said Kirk "wouldn't have wanted this."Former Trump administration advisor Steve Cortes echoed a similar opinion to Moda, arguing that Kirk "rightly despised" the notion of hate speech laws and called for Bondi to be fired."A hate speech crackdown in the name of Charlie Kirk?" he questioned.On the other end of the political spectrum, liberal commentator and founder of "The Young Turks," Cenk Uygur, applauded conservatives for "staying principled" and pushing back on Bondi's comments on hate speech.Journalist Glenn Greenwald said it was a "noxious claim" and the "foundation of left-liberal censorship."On MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Tuesday, co-host Willie Geist read out several posts criticizing Bondi and also flagged one by Kirk in 2024, where he wrote, "Hate speech does not exist legally in America. There's ugly speech. There's gross speech. There's evil speech. And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free."Fox News Digital has reached out to the Department of Justice for comment.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

Democrat Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii clashed with FBI Director Kash Patel during a heated Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, questioning agency firing and counterterrorism priorities and even calling the bureaus physical fitness requirements "harsh" for applicants.In an exclusive statement to Fox News Digital, Patel said, "Americans expect their FBI agents to be capable, resilient and ready to protect them."Thats why, under my watch, every field office is receiving more trained agents, more boots on the ground and a renewed commitment to getting out from behind the desks and back onto the streets where theyre needed most. Were rebuilding a bureau that earns the publics confidence by being present, prepared and physically ready to do the job."The most viral clash came when Hirono pressed Patel on fitness standards.'MOST TRANSPARENT' FBI EVER: PATEL UPDATES SENATE ON KIRK ASSASSINATION PROBE"One question I had is that you are now requiring applicants to be able to do a certain kind of pull-ups, which a lot of women cannot because of physiological differences. Are you requiring these kinds of pull-ups?" Hirono asked.Patel didnt budge."We are requiring everybody to pass the 1811 standards at BFTC. If you want to chase down a bad guy, excuse me, and put him in handcuffs, you had better be able to do a pull-up."Hirono replied, "There are concerns about whether or not being able to do these kinds of harsh pull-ups is really required of FBI agents."KASH PATEL'S FBI LEADERSHIP UNDER SCRUTINY AHEAD OF SENATE JUDICIARY OVERSIGHT HEARINGPatel interjected, "Doing one pull-up is not harsh, and there are always medical exemptions to that."According to the FBI recruitment website, "Starting in November 2025, pull-ups will be a required event for all candidates." For male recruits, 2-3 pull-ups are now a required minimum alongside the traditional Physical Fitness Test (PFT). For female candidates, one pull-up is the required minimum.Any additional pull-ups count to a recruit's overall PFT score, with the maximum points received for 20 or more pull-ups capped at 10.The White House's official X account, @RapidResponse47, shared the exchange in a now-viral clip on X.Beyond fitness standards, Hirono accused Patel of being loyal to Trump rather than the FBI."Your most significant qualification was your 100% loyalty to President Trump. And I fear that continues to be the motivating factor in your position as FBI director."Patel rejected that claim."That is an entire falsehood. You can delete my 16 years of government service to multiple administrations all you want. There was no loyalty then. Theres no loyalty now to anything but the Constitution."Patel also used the hearing to share the bureau's wins under his leadership. He pointed to 409 cyber arrests this year and 169 convictions, a 42% increase from the same time last year.He also said FBI reassignments were part of a "surge of resources" to combat violent crime. On accusations of reassignments, Patel said, "They never left their primary job. It is a surge of resources in law enforcement working with the interagency to combat violent crime and reduce crime in historical proportions."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPThe FBI and the office of Sen.

Police in Livermore, California, are investigating an incident that occurred at a USA Cycling event on Sunday, when organizers were seen berating a women's sports activist who was inquiring about sex tests."At the moment, we are looking into the matter and are in the process of reviewing our report and video footage," a Livermore Police Department spokesperson told Fox News Digital.Footage of the interaction at USA Cyclings Oakland Grand Prix has gone viral in recent days.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMBeth Bourne, a California activist known to oppose biological male athletes in women's and girls' sports, was seen in the footage asking organizers if the women's competitors at the event had been sex-tested to prove they were not male. One organizer was then seen approaching Bourne and covering her camera, saying, "We have policies in place. You can stop filming me."Bourne was then heard saying, "Give me my phone!"The footage then showed Bourne walking away from that organizer in a panic before another organizer came up behind her to shout, "Hey! Get the f--- out of here!"Bourne told Fox News Digital that the incident was "emotional.""It was so unexpected. I have an idea that we're going to have people maybe calling us names, or maybe calling us TERFs, which we've had, maybe even grabbing our signs. But to have somebody come up from behind me, before I even, I hadn't even gotten a sign out, I had just asked two or three questions, so that shocked me, I was scared," Bourne said."I was actually terrified, I was terrified that this person might really, really hurt me."Additional footage of the incident showed the same organizer who yelled in Bourne's face later putting a pizza box in front of her face, covering the view of Bourne's camera, then picking up her protest signs and throwing them in the garbage.Bourne alleged that the organizer told her, "Your God isn't going to protect you.""'You're just a hateful, awful person'" he told Bourne, she alleged. "And then he grabs all my signs and takes them and puts them in the trash can next to the start and finish area.

The New College of Florida in Sarasota announced Tuesday it will commission a statue of the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, noting the tribute will serve as a symbol of its commitment to protecting the First Amendment and fostering civil discourse.Though the statue's specifics have not yet been released, the college shared a sample rendering of the bronze statuedepicting Kirk sitting at a four-legged table with two open chairs, holding a microphone.The scene is reminiscent of Kirk's nationwide Turning Point USA events, where the 31-year-old conservative activist would invite college students to peacefully discuss political issues as he sat behind a table.JAY LENO CALLS CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSINATION THE 'DEATH OF FREE SPEECH'William Witt, New College Chief Social Media Officer, told Fox News Digital on Tuesday that the New College of Florida believes the statue will be a reminder of "what America is all about.""Having conversations that might be difficult, but that are worth it," Witt said. "Where the best idea wins. [Conversations] that are civil, and people actually coming together."The statue will be privately funded by community leaders, according to the college."We've had a tremendous outpouring of people who have come and said, I want to support and I want to donate to actually make this a reality'," Witt said. "Just a huge outpouring of people. We're absolutely thrilled that we're able to do this, and we wish Charlie could have come to our campus while he was still living. We want to do our best to honor his memory, his legacy and everything that he represented."CHARLIE KIRK ANSWERED 'HOW DO YOU WANT TO BE REMEMBERED' LESS THAN 3 MONTHS BEFORE KILLINGThe location for the statue will be announced in the coming months, and it is expected to be unveiled by the end of the year."We want to move as fast as possible on this, because we believe it's truly important," Witt said.Witt noted there is nothing that pleases 100 percent of people, but the majority of students have said they feel "proud" of the school for making the decision.While the New College has not yet talked about security specifics, Witt said "if someone takes action against the memorial, they will be punished and action will be taken against those people."Kirk, a husband and father of two, was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah on Wednesday.He advocated for free speech and open dialogue throughout his career, urging young people to fight for their ideas and avoid silencing those they may not agree with."One of the most horrifying and surprising evolutions we have witnessed among our widespread campus network is the rapid movement away from tolerating opposing ideas and respectful debate to the deployment of obscene bully tactics from the left," Kirk said.The Florida College Democrats and New College Democrats did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's requests for comment.
