Ryan Routh, the man accused of attempting to assassinate then-presidential candidate Donald Trump at his Florida golf course last year, said he would not take the stand in his own criminal case on Monday the strongest sign yet that the defense is preparing to rest its case and kick the trial into its final phase before jury deliberation.Routh, 59, has been representing himself in the federal criminal trial. He has pleaded not guilty to charges of attempting to assassinate a major presidential candidate, assaulting a federal officer, and possession of a firearm, among other crimes. If convicted, he could face life in prison.He previously floated the possibility that he could testify on his own behalf a risky strategy that would have waived his Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination, and opened him up to cross-examination by federal prosecutors.U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon asked Routh repeatedly Monday morning whether hed had enough time to consider his decision not to testify, and whether he wanted to consult standby counsel. He said he was sure. Prosecutors then asked for the lunch hour to decide if they would call rebuttal witnesses.If none are called, the defense is expected to rest within hours, clearing the way for closing arguments and jury deliberations.TRUMP TRIAL CONTINUES WITH MORE FBI TESTIMONY AFTER RIFLE CALLED PREPARED TO FIRERouth opened his defense Monday with testimony from Michael McClay, a gun specialist and his only expert witness; followed by a family friend, Atwill Milsun, and a former colleague, Marshall Hinshaw.McClay, an expert in sniper firearms and tactics with an extensive career in military and law enforcement, confirmed at the outset of Rouths questioning that he was subpoenaed to testify, and did not want to appear on Rouths behalf.Routh spent most of the time questioning McClay about the operability scope of the rifle in question, including trying to cast doubt on the likelihood that the SKS rifle in question could not hit a target 375 yards away.McClay said that it depended on the skill of the shooter but confirmed that the rifle was capable of hitting a target from that distance.During cross-examination, prosecutors asked McClay about whether the rifle could inflict damage to someone at that distance, which McClay confirmed it could.Rouths questions for McClay were buffeted by long pauses and sighs from Routh, who at one point, mused aloud: "I have to order my questions, or I will get confused."FBI PHONE EXTRACTIONS, DNA TESTIMONY HEADLINE DAY 7 OF RYAN ROUTH TRIALRouth's witness list was sparse compared to the dozens of witnesses introduced by prosecutors, including forensics experts, FBI agents, and Secret Service agents over the course of a two-week period.Instead, he used his two character witnesses to bolster his own attempts to cast himself as a person of "peacefulness, gentleness, and non-violence."Before his former colleague, Marshall Hinshaw, took the stand, Cannon reiterated to Routh the risks of introducing character witnesses, noting that personal relationships can leave such witnesses exposed to tough cross-examinations. Assistant U.S. Attorney John Shipley told Judge Cannon in response that they planned to limit such questions.The bulk of the questions Routh asked his witnesses focused closely on his reputation and engagement within the community. "You were very well-liked," Hinshaw told Routh, adding that he would "not expect" Routh to harm anyone.Asked whether he could have run for city council, Hinshaw responded, "absolutely."Certain questions, including about Routh's ex-wife, prompted Cannon to interject several times, noting that they were far beyond the scope of the case.His family friend, Atwill Milsun, echoed that Routh is not a violent person. "Youve always been a jolly person," he told Routh, who he said offered "everything he had" to the local community.Still, Routh's absence of counsel was starkly on display. His questions prompted visible frustration from Cannon, who at times had to stop the proceedings and instruct the jury to disregard questions or statements from Routh.At times, his questions veered into deeply unconventional territory, leaving Cannon seemingly at a loss for words.At one point, Routh asked Milsun whether he had "ever met Tony Hawk." Milsun responded, "yes," though not because of Routh.Routh then asked, "Would you be willing to go with me to Taiwan to host an international music festival?" prompting Cannon to cut Routh off from his questions completely. "Ive given you a great deal of latitude, [but] this must cease," she told him.On a cross-examination, prosecutors asked Milsun if he was aware that Routh ran over an employee with his truck. Milsun responded that he had not been aware of this.Both witnesses acknowledged during cross-examinations they had not spoken to Routh for years.Routh was also not expected to present any evidence on his own behalf. He suggested, at one point, the idea that had a "new flashlight item" to submit, though it is unclear what, exactly, he was referring to.Cannon told him that he would need to "lay a proper foundation" before submitting any evidence. Asked whether the flashlight had an exhibit number, Routh told her, "It's a brand new item we just created."Cannon told him to defer the matter to standby counsel and return to questioning his witness.His earlier submissions to the court were deemed to be inadmissible evidence. Prosecutors noted the exhibits in question include books that were authored by Routh, as well as handwritten drawings and Eagle Scout awards from his childhood. Cannon previously said she would keep the exhibits on the docket to give Routh the ability to challenge the courts ruling, if he felt the need to do so.Routh's attempt to defend himself in his own criminal trial, using scant evidence and a thin list of witnesses, starkly contrasts with the prosecution, which spent nearly two weeks carefully and extemporaneously making its case against Routh to a jury in Fort Pierce, Florida.In that span, jurors heard from 38 witnesses and reviewed hundreds of exhibits text messages, call logs, bank records, and cellphone data linking Routh to the alleged gun purchase and placing him near Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach in the weeks before the attempted assassination.Prosecutors also presented extensive digital and forensic evidence. FBI officials testified last week that Rouths DNA was found on the rifle scope grip, a glove, a bungee cord, and a bag recovered from the "snipers nest" near the sixth hole, where he allegedly waited at least 12 hours for the presidents arrival.Before resting its case Friday, the governments final witness, FBI Supervisory Special Agent Kimberly McGreevy, walked the jury through extensive cellphone data, license plate records, surveillance footage, and other information prosecutors alleged tied Routh to Trumps movements in the weeks before the alleged attempt.Cannon, despite her visible frustration, seemed to hope Routh would take the opportunity to testify on his own behalf."Have you had enough time to decide?" she pressed him at one point during the day.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"A year," Routh told her in response.After the defense rests, both sides will present their closing arguments to the jury before they deliberate on the verdict. Closing arguments are expected Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest.

FIRST ON FOX:The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) responded to the New York Magazine cover story today, which claims thatCorey Lewandowski, rather than Secretary Kristi Noem, is the one calling the shots at the agency.DHS punched back at New York Magazines reporting in an exclusive statement to Fox News Digital, saying that the story is simply "peddling anonymous gossip.""This NYMag hit piece reads like a preteen rage-scrolling, then prompting ChatGPT for a screed on misogyny," DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News Digital. "It's not just lazy it's libelous peddling anonymous gossip as fact while ignoring our exhaustive, on-the-record rebuttals that destroy their narrative.""New York Magazine has sunk to new depths of journalistic cowardice, force-feeding the American public lies less digestible than Kibble dog food," McLaughlin added.GAVIN NEWSOM FACES BACKLASH FOR 'RECKLESS' POST ABOUT KRISTI NOEM AFTER CHARLIE KIRK'S ASSASSINATIONLewandowski served asPresident Donald Trump's first campaign manager during the Republican primary in 2016. He also served as a senior adviser for Trumps 2024 campaign. He now holds the title of senior adviser at DHS."All decisions are made by Secretary Noem," McLaughlin told Fox. "Multiple staff have the ability to provide recommendations and input for her consideration. Mr. Lewandowski serves as an advisor.""The Secretary, like all previous Secretaries, has various senior advisors," McLaughlin continued.Noem, who was selected by Trump in November 2024, served as Governor of South Dakota prior to her tenure at DHS, and was rumored to be a potential Vice Presidential candidate along the campaign trail in Trumps third run for president.ICE HAS DEPORTED NEARLY 200,000 SO FAR DURING TRUMP'S SECOND TERM, SETTING PACE FOR HIGHEST LEVEL IN DECADESources at DHS told Fox that Secretary Noem receives regular death threats, including from the terrorist organizations, cartels and criminal rings that DHS targets, presumably as a result of Noem and the Trump administrationdrastically reducing traffic across the southern border and deporting illegal migrants across the country.Despite the threats against Noem, NY Magazine published that the secretary is living in the U.S. Coast Guard military housing in Washington D.C., which DHS told Fox is due to the security threats she regularly faces.NY Magazines cover story later goes on to describe the Department of Homeland Securitys increase in deportations as one of the roots of "Trumps police state," saying that DHS is "endangering the constitutional rights of citizens and noncitizens alike."McLaughlin punched back at those claims, telling Fox News Digital that Noem has specifically targeted dangerous illegal migrant criminals while also being responsible for overseeing theU.S. Coast Guard and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).DHS SECRETARY NOEM SAYS KIRKS LAST TEXT TO HER WARNED ABOUT THREAT OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IN BIG CITIES"[Secretary Noem] slashed taxpayer waste by over $12 billion in her first 200 days while locking down the border in the wake of Biden's chaos, facilitating the exit of 2 million illegal aliens (including terrorists, murderers, rapists, child pedophiles and gang members), revolutionizing the Coast Guard and overhauling TSA for safer, smoother, more hardened security," McLaughlin told Fox News Digital."That's leadership, not gossip America's safer and stronger because of Kristi Noem," McLaughlin added.Last month, McLaughlin told Fox that the agency has arrested more than 359,000 illegal migrants and removed more than 332,000 illegal migrants from the U.S.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPLauren Starke, a spokesperson for NY Magazine, told Fox News Digital that their cover story was "carefully reported and fact-checked" in response to DHS' comments to Fox."Our Washington correspondent spoke with more than a dozen current and former DHS staffers, as well as Trump administration officials, lobbyists, consultants, immigration experts, and former colleagues of Noem in South Dakota," Starke told Fox. "There is a public interest in government accountability, and we stand by this story."

Kids were non-negotiable for Rod Stewart's wife, Penny Lancaster.Lancaster admitted she would have left the musician if he hadn't agreed to have kids with her. "Yes [I would have left him]. And that would have been very hard," she told the British outlet Saga magazine. "But we just went with the flow. Now Rod always says, I wish Id said yes [to babies] earlier, because then we could have had more children."As recently as five years ago, Stewart and Lancaster considered adoption, but "it ended up not happening."She explained, "We thought there might be too much of an age gap."ROD STEWART POSES WITH 4 MOTHERS OF HIS CHILDREN: 'A MOTHER'S REUNION!'Stewart and Lancaster are parents to sons Alastair Wallace and Aiden Patrick. When the pair married in 2007, Stewart was already a father of six.Lancaster joked that she's actually a mother of three, referring to Stewart as "a big baby who needs my attention in a different way.""I think all women would say that about their husbands," she told the outlet.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING?

North Carolina Republican leaders plan to put forward a criminal justice reform package to roll back what they call "soft-on-crime" policies, which they argue led to last months murder of a young Ukrainian woman in Charlotte by a mentally disturbed man.The unprovoked stabbing of Iryna Zarutska led North Carolina Senate President Phil Berger to spearhead the effort, announced Monday."Iryna should still be alive. She should be thriving and enjoying time with her family and friends," said Berger, R-Reidsville."We cannot let North Carolina be held hostage by woke, weak-on-crime policies and court officials who prioritize criminals over justice for victims. We are also taking steps to revive the death penalty for those who commit the most heinous crimes."PAM BONDI SAYS DEATH PENALTY A POSSIBILITY FOR IRYNA ZARUTSKA KILLERThe package, dubbed "Irynas Law," cracks down on lax provisions in pretrial release or bail policies as alleged suspect Decarlos Brown Jr. had a lengthy, violent rap sheet.House Speaker Destin Hall, R-Lenoir, added in a statement that residents deserve to live without fear of criminals being "cycled in and out" of the criminal justice system.Hall said Irynas Law would eliminate cashless bail, "hold magistrates accountable" for lapses in judgment and set new standards for mental health evaluations to be administered to suspects.WHO IS IRYNA ZARUTSKA, UKRAINIAN REFUGEE KILLED IN CHARLOTTE TRAIN ATTACK?"We will simply not tolerate policies that allow violent offenders back onto our streets to commit more crimes and jeopardize public safety," Hall said.While curbing some of the judges discretion, the package in turn allows jurists to impose GPS monitoring and conditional bond for a "new category" of violent offenses.Electronic monitoring and house arrest are heavily weighted as options for certain recidivist offenders.Magistrates and judges who violate the policies in Irynas Law could face suspension or removal if recommended by a chief judge or by State Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul Newby, a Republican from Asheboro who won the most recent nonpartisan election.Fox News Digital reached out to North Carolina Democratic Gov. Josh Stein for comment on the legislation but did not hear back by press time.

The number-two Democrat in the Senate joined with a high-profile member of the Republican caucus, among others, to launch a bill protecting more than a quarter of a million people who arrived in the U.S. as children of visa-holding foreign nationals.Senate Majority Whip Richard Durbin, D-Ill., who co-authored the original, ultimately unsuccessful DREAM Act with the late Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, announced Monday that he and several lawmakers would lead the Americas CHILDREN Act to protect so-called Dreamers from deportation by the Trump administration.The acronym formally stands for "Americas Cultivation of Hope and Inclusion for Long-term Dependents Raised and Educated Natively Act."Durbin was joined by Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., and Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., in the upper chamber, to support the newest iteration of legislation offering a "pathway to citizenship" for long-term U.S. residents who were dependents of migrant parents.TRUMPS IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN SPARKS BIPARTISAN CALL FOR ASYLUM FIXES, PROTECTION FOR LONGTIME MIGRANTS"Dreamers are some of the hardest working people Ive met, and as American as all of us," Durbin said in a statement."Their patriotism and dedication to our country inspires me, fuels our economy, and makes our nation stronger. Documented Dreamers are young people brought to the United States lawfully, but they face the risk of losing their status due to backlogs in our outdated immigration system."The Illinois Democrat, whose state has clashed with President Donald Trump over his mass deportation agenda, said the administration has made legal immigration "all but impossible" and that the bipartisan nature of the bill shows the American people demand solutions.APPEALS COURT DEALS BLOW TO OBAMA-ERA AMNESTY FOR DREAMERSDreamers can remain a dependent of a migrant worker until they are 21, according to Rep. Deborah Ross, D-N.C., who described the intended beneficiaries of the American CHILDREN Act in a previous attempt to pass similar legislation."Sadly, due to decades-long backlogs and problems with the Child Status Protection Act, many of these young adults turn 21 before a visa number for a green card finally becomes available," said Ross, who also co-sponsored the current bill.Padilla, who was detained by federal agents when he disrupted a briefing by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem in California earlier this year, said the people described in the bill are "Americans in every way except one their parents green card is tied up in red tape."Paul, along with Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks of Illinois the two most prominent Republican co-sponsors said Dreamers are contributing members of their communities and the U.S. economy."They shouldnt be penalized by the governments failures in addressing green card backlogs. The Americas Children Act provides targeted relief for these children of merit-based immigrants who are at risk of aging out of their lawful immigration status, and Im pleased to join Sen. Padilla in introducing this bill," Paul said in a statement.A handful of other Republicans signed onto the bill, including Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska a frequent Trump critic along with Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, John Rutherford of Florida; Sens. John Curtis of Utah, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine.

Emma Watson is getting real about the acting world.In a recent interview with People magazine, the 35-year-old "Harry Potter" star reflected on her acting career and the parts of the job she has missed since taking a step back from on-screen work.While looking back on her career as a child star, Watson admits, "In some ways I really won the lottery [with acting]," and that what she experienced was "so unusual," but noted that there were parts of the job she is happy to leave behind."But a bigger component than the actual job itself is the promotion and selling of that piece of work, this piece of art," she explained.

"I just found I got to do so little of the bit that I actually enjoyed."When speaking with People, Watson explained that actors often feel the need to "fracture yourself into multiple personalities," noting that in addition to becoming the character they are playing on screen, they also deal with "having the weight of a public persona."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERThe public persona often requires "constant feeding and sprucing and glamorizing.""Its very energy-intensive stuff.

Israels ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, dismissed todays General Assembly conference on the question of Palestine as a "charade," confirming Israel will boycott the meeting and warning countries moving toward recognition of a Palestinian state that there will be "consequences."Speaking to reporters at U.N. headquarters just ahead of a high-level session on implementing a two-state solution, Danon said Israel would not engage in the debate, accusing supporters of recognition of "supporting terrorism rather than promoting peace.""We will not participate in this charade. We will not enter the GA Hall, and we will not take part," he told reporters.France pledged to recognize a Palestinian state at the General Assembly on Tuesday, joining a slew of Israels longtime allies who have done so in recent months.MACRON STAKES ANTI-TRUMP GLOBAL ROLE WITH GAZA INITIATIVE AT UN SUMMITFrance became the first major Western nuclear power and a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council from the G7 to formally recognize Palestine.Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom announced their support on Sunday. Norway, Spain, Portugal and Ireland have done so in recent months. They cited Israeli settlement expansion and settler violence."They feel they are doing something, but they are not promoting peace. On the contrary, they are supporting terrorism," Danon said of the nations who recognized Palestine."There will be consequences for that," he promised.Danon did not define the consequences but did not rule out Israel extending its rule to parts of the West Bank.Its a "discussion for the government" after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets with President Donald Trump on Sept. 29.Danon said Israel is coordinating its response with the U.S. to allies recognizing Palestine and that Washington would also join the boycott of Mondays General Assembly meeting on implementing a two-state solution."Nothing justifies the ongoing war in Gaza," French President Emmanuel Macron said at the meeting. "Everything compels us to definitively end it."UK, CANADA, AUSTRALIA RECOGNIZE PALESTINIAN STATE; NETANYAHU VOWS IT WILL NOT HAPPENMacron went on: "The time has come to no longer talk about the existence of Israel its self-evident. The time has come to do justice to the Palestinians, to recognize the state of Palestine.""We must do this to save lives."Hamas has drafted a letter to President Donald Trump, asking the commander-in-chief to guarantee a 60-day cease-fire in exchange for the release of half of the hostages still in captivity, Fox News has learned.Trump has seemingly grown frustrated at the stalled-out peace effort that has left some 40 Israelis at the hands of Hamas for nearly two years.Trump is planning to meet with a group of Arab leaders on Tuesday, where they are expected to implore him to push Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza.

The San Francisco 49ers will be without star defensive end Nick Bosa for the rest of the 2025 season after he tore his ACL during Sundays win over the Arizona Cardinals.Bosas tear was a clean one and will require season-ending surgery, according to ESPN. He is expected to begin a long recovery in hopes of returning by the start of the 2026 campaign.Unfortunately for Bosa, he is no stranger to this injury. He also tore his ACL in Week 2 of the 2020 season against the New York Jets and partially tore the ligament in high school in 2015.The injury occurred late in the first quarter of San Franciscos 16-15 victory over its NFC West rival. Bosa walked to the locker room with about a minute remaining in the period and did not return. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said initial sideline tests did not indicate an ACL tear, though he cautioned a serious injury was possible.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"There is concern because of how he feels," Shanahan said Sunday night. "They do the test and stuff on the sideline, and usually they say whether he definitely did or not [injure his knee], and they didnt say that. But we are concerned with that. Keeping our fingers crossed for the MRI."BENGALS LOSE JOE BURROW FOR 3 MONTHS AFTER QB SUFFERS TURF TOE INJURY: REPORTBosa was rushing Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray from the left side when he engaged with left tackle Kelvin Beachum. Guard Evan Brown came over to help, and Bosa was knocked to the ground. His knee buckled awkwardly before he hit the turf, and he walked slowly to the sideline with trainers before heading to the locker room.The seven-year veteran had started the season strong, recording two sacks, four tackles for loss and two forced fumbles in three games."Anytime you lose a guy like Nick and his status is unknown, its a real buzzkill," All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams told ESPN. "It is clich to say the next man up, but when you lose a guy like that, you need three or four guys to come fill those shoes."San Francisco will now turn to its depth, with rookie Mykel Williams, Bryce Huff, Yetur Gross-Matos and Sam Okuayinonu expected to step up in Bosas absence.The 49ers' injury woes just continue to pile up, as stars on the offensive side tight end George Kittle and quarterback Brock Purdy are also out with their own respective ailments. However, they are not expected to be season-ending like Bosa.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
