    Oklahoma state superintendent pledges a Turning Point USA chapter for every high school
    Oklahoma state school superintendent Ryan Walters pledged Tuesday to have a Turning Point USA chapter in every high school to honor the groups co-founder, Charlie Kirk."Im excited to announce today that every Oklahoma high school will have a Turning Point USA chapter," Walters said in a video on his X account. "We have seen the outpouring from parents, teachers and students that want to be engaged with the meaningful work going on at Turning Point. They want their young people to be engaged in a process that understands free speech, open engagement, dialogue about American greatness, a dialogue around American values."He added, "For far too long, we have seen radical leftists with the teachers unions dominate classrooms and push woke indoctrination on our kids. They fight parents rights. They push parents out of the classroom, and they lie to our kids about American history. What were going to continue to do is make sure our kids understand American greatness, engage in civic dialogue and have that open discussion. We will continue to do all that we can to make sure Oklahoma students have the best education possible."OKLAHOMA SUPERINTENDENT SPARS WITH CNN HOST OVER BIBLES IN SCHOOLS: LIBERALS 'DON'T HAVE TO LIKE IT'Walters faced some criticism for his announcement, particularly from Democrats."Listening to conservative radio host Chad Alexander. He says this is just another pathetic attempt by Walters to win over Republicans while tanking in the polls. Walters has zero power to enforce it and wont investigate a thing," Oklahoma Democratic state Rep. Mickey Dollens wrote on X.Tulsa Public Schools board member John Croisant, a 2026 Democratic congressional candidate, said in an interview with KGOU that Tulsa Public Schools will not take part in "pushing political organizations within our schools.""And he can't make us," Croisant said. "Because that's not a part of accreditation."Former DNC spokesperson Xochitl Hinojosa spoke out against Walters on CNN.TPUSA INSIDER: ERIKA KIRK IS 'ABSOLUTE FORCE' READY TO GROW GROUP '10X' AFTER TRAGEDY"I do not think that we should be forcing ideology on our children, especially in public schools," Hinojosa said Tuesday. "After the shooting of Gabby Giffords, we were not forcing ideology in Arizona about guns. After the Minnesota state legislator was killed and her husband was killed in their home by an anti-abortion activist, we werent going into Minnesota schools trying to promote abortion in those schools."Walters responded to Hinojosas comments on "The Story with Martha MacCallum" Wednesday, calling the criticism "laughable.""These are the people that forced Drag Queen Story Hour on your kids. They force critical race theory on your kids. They force the most radical woke agenda in the country on your kids. The teachers unions and the Democratic Party did that," Walters said.ERIKA KIRK'S FIRST SPEECH SINCE HUSBAND'S ASSASSINATION SPARKS MASSIVE TPUSA CHAPTER SURGE NATIONWIDEHe continued, "Then when students and teachers say we want a Turning Point chapter, that we have not seen anything like this before. We are excited and want to take the country back, and we want kids to think freely. We want them to understand American values. The unions and the Democrats cry foul. You have to be kidding me with this. We have never seen a Marxist ideology pushed on this like that party has for the last decade."Walters said that his announcement coincided with requests from parents and students for new chapters and that he is working with Turning Point USA on the measure.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPFox News Digital reached out to Walters and Turning Point USA for comment.Since Kirks assassination at a Utah campus event two weeks ago, Turning Point USA has received tens of thousands of requests to form new campus chapters.

    NYC radio hosts blast Mets announcer over comments on Cubs player attending Charlie Kirk memorial service
    New York Mets play-by-play announcer Gary Cohen criticized Chicago Cubs third baseman Matt Shaw for skipping a game Sunday to attend Charlie Kirks memorial in Arizona, and New York sports radio hosts ripped into him Wednesday morning.WFANs Gregg Giannotti, co-host of "Boomer and Gio," blasted Cohen, who took exception to Shaw attending the memorial. Kirks wife, Erika, reached out to Shaw personally to attend given their friendship.The Cubs, in the middle of a pennant race, lost Sundays game 1-0 to the Cincinnati Reds."I, quite frankly, didnt like his commentary, and Im not going to now dislike Gary Cohen over it. Hes a great broadcaster. Hes been a part of my life for a long time. I thought it was completely unnecessary," Giannotti said over the airwaves.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Gary Cohens whole life has been baseball, and baseballs a very serious thing for him. But Matt Shaw saw his friend get shot and killed, got shot in the neck in front of his family and his wife requested that he be there. And Gary Cohens got a problem with that because the Cubs are in a pennant race? Have we lost all touch with reality here?"Cohen said he didnt want to talk "about any of the politics of it," but Giannotti and his co-host, former NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason, believe the second that was brought up in his statement made it political."You get into the politics by saying that," Esiason said.SUPER BOWL CHAMPION COACH TONY DUNGY REFLECTS ON CHARLIE KIRK MEMORIAL SERVICECohen also mentioned Shaws absence did not fall under MLBs bereavement policy."Who gives a crap? If he wants to go to that, he can go to that," Giannotti countered. "And dont be mad at him. Why youre mad, why you care, I have no idea. But be mad at the Cubs who granted him the ability to go."Esiason added, "I saw the interview with [Shaw], and he was talking about how he was friendly with Charlie Kirk because they lived in the same area. Theres a couple of pictures of him and Charlie Kirk together, and if Erika Kirk is reaching out to him, what are you supposed to do?"Then, Giannotti posed a question to Cohen."Lets say we didnt know who Charlie Kirk was, and Matt Shaw was friends with somebody who got shot in the neck and killed in front of his family. Would Gary Cohen have a problem with that because he doesnt know the person who got shot and killed in front of his family? Or was it because Charlie Kirk had a political platform that Gary Cohen disagrees with, so now its weird a baseball player goes over there?"Cohens comments came late in the game between the Mets and Cubs Tuesday night while Shaw was up to bat."The thought of leaving your team in the middle of a race for any reason other than a family emergency really strikes me as weird," Cohen said.METS ANNOUNCERS CRITICIZE CUBS PLAYER MATT SHAW FOR LEAVING TEAM TO ATTEND CHARLIE KIRK'S FUNERALHis broadcasting partner, former big league player Todd Zeile, added to Cohens sentiment."Its unusual. I think its unprecedented, at least from my experience as a player. And I think it made it a little more unusual that it was not revealed until after it came to issue because he was thought to be in the dugout and maybe available and was not, and thats how it was revealed," Zeile said.Shaw told media members Tuesday night why he made it a point to attend the memorial despite his teams schedule."My connection with Charlie was through our [Christian] faith," Shaw said before the Cubs opened a new series with the New York Mets on Tuesday, per the Chicago Sun-Times. "And thats something that drives me every day, the reason why Im able to do what I do every day. And thats something Im extremely thankful for."I know without my faith and without the many blessings Ive been given in my life, that I wouldnt be here, be able to talk to you guys, able to help this team eventually go and win championships."Thats something I feel really, really blessed about, so whatever backlash comes is OK. I feel strong about my faith and that what was meant to be happened."Kirk, a native of Arlington Heights, a northern suburb of Chicago, was "one of the biggest Cubs fans I ever met," according to Shaw. After a conversation with manager Craig Counsell and some teammates, Shaw felt his decision to attend the memorial was accepted."The reason Charlie and I connected so close was because of our faith," Shaw added. "Thats something that drives me every single day, something that I think about all the time. So, if people are wondering who I am and what I stand for, Id say that my faith and the many blessings Ive been given are why Im able to be here."And I just want to make sure that I can give that back to people, that I can support people around me, that I can love people around me the same way that Ive been blessed."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    Whoopi Goldberg suggests it may be time to invoke the 25th Amendment against Trump
    On Wednesday's episode of "The View," co-host Whoopi Goldberg suggested it may be time to consider invoking the 25th Amendment against President Donald Trump following his address to the United Nations General Assembly Tuesday.Discussing Trump's address, Goldberg argued other countries aren't laughing at the United States, they're actually "really concerned for us."While criticizing Trump's efforts to resolve the war between Russia and Ukraine, Goldberg said, "He had an opportunity to do so much more than he offered them, and they dont consider him to be serious anymore, and Im worried. What is the amendment, the 20".The co-hosts took their guesses at which amendment Goldberg was referencing, making multiple attempts before co-host Sonny Hostin eventually informed them that it was the 25th Amendment.'THE VIEW' SLAMS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, AVOIDS CRITICIZING ABC OVER KIMMEL SUSPENSION"I didnt know what you meant. You meant when you start questioning someones competence and mental acuity," Hostin added."Well, they questioned Bidens competence," Goldberg quickly shot back. "If Biden had acted like this, I would have said take him and sit him down somewhere, but this was not this was not presidential, and this was not helpful."The 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution defines the process for presidential succession and the transfer of power if the president is unable to perform his or her duties. It can be used when a president dies, resigns or lacks the mental or physical capacity to serve in office.'THE VIEW' CO-HOST 'SCARED' OVER SOTOMAYOR RESPONSE ON TRUMP POTENTIALLY SEEKING A THIRD TERMIn the lead-up to their discussion about the 25th Amendment, Hostin accused the president of lying to the U.N. General Assembly about ending seven wars across the globe in the hopes of winning a Nobel Peace Prize.This set off a debate among the co-hosts about whether Trump would deserve a Nobel Peace Prize for ending the war between Ukraine and Russia.Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin was the outlier of the group, arguing that she welcomes Trump's "about-face" on Ukraine and that he would deserve the award if he is able to achieve peace between the two warring countries.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREGoldberg claimed the frightening aspect of the president's most recent about-face on Ukraine is that it will eventually "lead to another about-face" and that the rest of the world is concerned for America under his leadership.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"They are worried for us," Hostin concurred. "And I want to say this about Americans. Seventy-six percent of Americans say Trump doesnt deserve to win the Nobel Peace Prize. His own country doesnt think that!"Hostin appeared to be citing a recent Washington Post/Ipsos poll.

    Leftist gun club tied to violence recruiting on Georgetown campus echoes Kirk killing: 'Hey fascist! Catch!'
    EXCLUSIVE: In the wake of Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination allegedly at the hands of a left-wing ideologue, a leftist gun club with ties to political violence posted recruiting flyers at Georgetown University with references to Kirk's death."Hey fascist! Catch!" says a red flyer from the John Brown Gun Club posted on Georgetown's campus.The phrase is a nod to the same slogan which was allegedly written on a shell casing by Tyler Robinson, who stands accused of murdering Kirk at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.UVU PROFESSOR AND FORMER FBI AGENT WARNS OF NEW PATTERN OF POLITICAL VIOLENCE AFTER CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSINATION"The only political group that celebrates when Nazis die," the advertisement says.It is adorned with a QR code linking to a page that reportedly says, "We're building a community that's done with ceremonial resistance and strongly worded letters. If you want to make a real change in your community, let us know below."Shae McInnis, a sophomore at Georgetown University and treasurer of the school's College Republicans Club, found the posters in plain sight on the school's activity board on Wednesday morning."So, obviously I read this immediately as a threat, not only for me but for everyone on this campus," McInnis told Fox News Digital. "Every conservative, everyone who just does not subscribe to the prevailing leftist orthodoxy. This is a direct threat against them. It means that there are students at this campus who want to see conservatives dead rather than engaging with their ideas, rather than facilitating a political discourse.""Ever since President Trump won the election in January, we've seen an increase in this rhetoric," he continued. "But really, I think many conservatives noticed a change after Charlie Kirk's assassination. While much of the school was united in condemning this horrible act of political violence, there have been fringe elements on the left on social media that we have seen really defend this, justify this, and that is really unacceptable.The Center for Counter Extremism lists the John Brown Gun Club as a "far-left group."Members of the organization frequently show up armed at left-wing political events under the guise of protecting protesters from right-wing counter-protesters, and the gun club is tied to recent anti-ICE violence.YEARS OF CAMPUS ATTACKS ON CONSERVATIVE ACTIVISTS RESURFACE AFTER CHARLIE KIRKS MURDEROn July 4, a dozen people attacked the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas.A criminal complaint filed by the U.S. District Court Northern District of Texas alleges that assailants shot 20 to 30 rounds from an AR-15-style rifle before it jammed, causing it to malfunction.Some of the suspects in that case are accused of setting off fireworks and graffiting ICE vehicles with slogans like "ICE Pig" in order to lure unarmed agents into a parking lot. At around the same time, more suspects allegedly opened fire from a nearby tree line, striking a local police officer and injuring him.Eleven suspects face federal charges, including three counts of attempted murder of federal agents in addition to three counts of discharging a firearm in relation to a crime of violence.One of those suspects is Benjamin Song, a long-time antifa agitator who in 2023 was involved in a skirmish with a right-wing group called the New Columbia Movement during a drag event in Fort Worth.A lawsuit filed by the New Columbia Movement says Song was at the event providing security as a member of the John Brown Gun Club's Elm Fork Chapter. He was accused of pepper spraying members of the group, but never charged criminally.CHARLIE KIRK WARNED ASSASSINATION CULTURE IS SPREADING ON THE LEFT IN EERIE ONLINE POST MONTHS BEFORE MURDERThe club has chapters nationwide, and another member, Willem van Spronsen, was killed by authorities in 2019 when he tried to blow up an ICE detention center by igniting a propane tank and throwing Molotov cocktails at the building."You know, we're totally comfortable with the fact that many people disagree with us, and that's what a university is supposed to do," said McInnis. "It's supposed to sharpen ideas based on what people disagree with. But it's not until I saw this poster early this morning that I ever felt directly threatened. I mean, this poster is directly calling for the death of conservatives on this campus."The club is named for militant slave abolitionist John Brown, who in 1856 orchestrated the Pottawatomie Massacre. He and fellow abolitionists dragged five Kansas settlers suspected of having pro-slavery sympathies out of their homes and executed them.In October 1859, Brown led a 21-man raid on a federal armory in Harper's Ferry, part of Virginia at the time. His goal was to start a slave uprising, but few slaves joined the fight. A local militia confronted Brown and his men and fought back. Four townspeople, including freed slave Heyward Shepherd, were caught in the crossfire and killed in the skirmish. After 10 of his men were killed, Brown was captured. He was later tried for treason and eventually hanged."Georgetown University has no tolerance for calls for violence or threats to the university," a spokesperson for the school told Fox News Digital. "The flyers have been removed and the university is investigating this incident and working to ensure the safety of our community."

    UNC faces lawsuit over alleged pattern of closed-door meetings including Bill Belichick hire
    A lawsuit has accused the University of North Carolina and its board of trustees of illegally hiring head football coach Bill Belichick behind closed doors in December.Former UNC provost Chris Clemens and lawyer David McKenzie filed the lawsuit in Orange County Superior Court, and it alleges Belichicks hiring is one of many instances where closed sessions occurred at the public university.The lawsuit points to an alleged "pattern and practice" at UNC to conceal "matters of grave public concern behind closed doors." One of those matters includes potential conference realignment.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMClemens also alleges that he was punished after "leaking closed-session information" to faculty members about a meeting with tenure deferral as the main topic of the lawsuit."As Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost, [Clemens] briefed deans and vice chancellors internally about the Boards tenure policy posture after a closed session so they could manage faculty expectations," the lawsuit reads. "The Boards subsequent effort to punish him for leaking closed-session information only highlights the culture of secrecy at odds with the Open Meetings Law and Public Records Law."As for Belichicks hiring, the lawsuit alleges that "substantive deliberation occurred in secret" on Dec. 12, 2024, in an emergency board meeting. The lawsuit charges that, since Belichicks "compensation package and entire hiring was already public," there was no need for the closed session.BILL BELICHICK SHARES 'PRETTY SIMPLE' REASON FOR BANNING PATRIOTS STAFF FROM FOOTBALL PROGRAM"The Board did not present any comparable thirty-year net present cost analysis, nor did it invoke long-horizon fiscal restraint to defer that decision for a single UNC employee," the lawsuit states after spelling out Belichicks compensation for joining the Tar Heels.Athletics beyond football were used as examples in the lawsuit, including an alleged November 2023 closed session to discuss a potential UNCs ACC alignment, comparing it to "potential financial outcomes with SEC or Big Ten membership."The lawsuit alleges another conference realignment closed session occurred in May 2024."The Board again used closed session to debate conference realignment strategy and athletics department finances," the lawsuit reads. "There is no statutory exemption that permits closed discussion of institutional affiliations and budget planning."The lawsuit adds: "Each episode follows the same pattern: the Board invokes a statutory exemption, enters closed session, then discusses broad policy or budget matters that must be debated publicly. The Board compounds these violations by maintaining inadequate general accounts that prevent public understanding of what transpired."McKenzie has a history with litigation against UNC, having come out on top in a lawsuit against the university and its Board of Trustees after the May 2024 conference realignment session.A temporary restraining order was granted on May 16, 2024, one day after McKenzie filed the suit, which stopped the board "from going into closed session to discuss UNC Athletics financials, budgeting, deficit or ongoing future conference realignment and related strategic planning." UNC later settled with McKenzie at $25,000 in July 2024 for the lawsuit.Belichicks hire included a closed session, which lasted 41 minutes and ultimately led to his hiring as well as womens head soccer coach Damon Nahas at UNC. It was a shock to the football world, as Belichick had not coached in college over his illustrious career.As the lawsuit states, Belichick was hired on a salary of $10 million per season with additional compensation for bringing his sons Steve and Brian Belichick onto his coaching staff.The suit states that Belichicks agreement placed the "total exposure well into the tens of millions over five years."Belichicks college coaching debut has been pedestrian to start, having gone 2-2 over his first four games.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    ICE agents' 'rhetoric' against 'noncitizens' blamed for deadly Dallas shooting on MSNBC
    MSNBC panelists on "Chris Jansing Reports" suggested efforts to "dehumanize" illegal immigrants contributed to a deadly shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas Wednesday.At least three people were shot, two of them killed, after a gunman opened fire at the site. The FBI said it is investigating the incident as a "targeted attack" against ICE after uncovering anti-ICE messages written on bullet rounds found near the shooter.Jansing asked one of her guests, former ICE assistant chief counsel Veronica Cardenas, about the difficulties ICE agents face today, but Cardenas instead blamed rhetoric used to "dehumanize noncitizens" rather than the dangers ICE agents face.TOM HOMAN CALLS OUT 'MORNING JOE' HOST FOR ACCUSING ICE AGENTS OF DISAPPEARING PEOPLE"It is very difficult," Cardenas said. "It has been a very divisive environment. And the rhetoric does have to stop. Just yesterday, Homeland Security released a propaganda video on their social website stating or using Nintendos Pokmon to catch them all and continuing to dehumanize noncitizens."So, how do we fix this?" Jansing asked. "Or at least start to fix this? Because at least both sides say they want to bring down the temperature."The way you fix this is by really ensuring that due process is played out in these arrests, in targeting noncitizens," Cardenas said. "When you read about people being arrested, noncitizens being arrested, its already stated illegal."Like, that is something to assume. Its not allegedly. And, so, creating that where people, noncitizens, are already guilty until proven innocent, gives others this right, this hatred to attack and to justify what theyre doing to noncitizens. And, so, there has to be accountability and responsibility on both sides."MSNBC CONTRIBUTOR CLAIMS 'DARK' TRUMP SUPPORTERS ENJOY WATCHING ICE ACT LIKE 'SLAVE CATCHERS'Jansing turned to MSNBC national security analyst Christopher OLeary about reports that bullet rounds recovered from the shooter contained anti-ICE messaging. OLeary similarly argued that the attack stemmed from a "real or perceived grievance" from ICE tactics."We have a decade of intentionally attacking institutions, disinformation, misinformation, conspiracy theories, which led to polarization in society. All of those things have set the conditions for where we are now. And then you throw in the aggressive tactics that ICE has employed and the wearing of masks. Thats where you get political violence coming from," OLeary said."Political violence doesnt happen in a vacuum. Its in response to a real or perceived grievance that somebody has. And they think that this is the best outlet, and that is not justifying it. Its just where you see these pockets of violence emerge. Its in response to something."MSNBC REPORTER DEFENDS ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AS THE 'FABRIC' OF LOS ANGELES WHILE ANTI-ICE RIOTS CONTINUEFox News Digital reached out to MSNBC for comment.The MSNBC segment followed a press conference with Joshua Johnson, an acting field office director who criticized the rhetoric targeting ICE agents.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"The rhetoric has to stop. There are people out there who are seeing what is being placed online, and theyre coming. And theyre doing acts of violence against ICE employees. Its just got to stop. Its dangerous, and people are losing their lives," Johnson said.

    Violet Affleck demands clean air at UN but is 'powerless over dad getting off cigarettes': expert
    Violet Affleck took the stage at the United Nations (U.N.) to demand clean air and as her father, Hollywood star Ben Affleck, wrestles with his smoking habit.Wearing a KN95 mask, the 19-year-old Yale freshman addressed the "Healthy Indoor Air: A Global Call to Action" panel Tuesday in New York.Over four minutes, Violet urged governments to bring back mask mandates, invest in clean-air infrastructure and recognize "filtered air as a human right as intuitively as we do filtered water.""We can create clean air infrastructure that is so ubiquitous and so obviously necessary so that tomorrows children dont even know why we need it," Violet warned delegates.ANGELINA JOLIE PLANNING TO SELL LA HOME AND MOVE ABROAD AFTER BRAD PITT CUSTODY RESTRICTIONS LIFT: REPORTBut one expert with prior connections to Violets famous father suggested her clean-air push could be complicated by his smoking."Violet will never be happy with the air, and she's a very sensitive girl," Rocky Rosen, a Los Angeles smoking cessation trainer, told Fox News Digital. "She wants clean air but also wants dad to be healthy. Violet feels powerless over her father getting off cigarettes."Violet is the eldest daughter of Affleck, 53, and his ex-wife, actress Jennifer Garner, 53. The couple, who divorced in 2018 after more than a decade together, also share Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.KATE HUDSON ROCKS BIKINI ON ADVENTURE GETAWAY WITH FAMILY IN COLORADOAffleck has reportedly wrestled with nicotine addiction for decades, even as Violet campaigns for healthier air.He's been photographed smoking in public, including one instance where he pulled down his mask at the height of the pandemic just to light up."Smokers like Ben are afraid of two things.He's probablyafraid he can't stop. He's probablyafraid that he will stop," Rosen said. "Ben's very environmentally concerned but, as far as the cigarettes, they just have control over him."Rosen emphasized the actor does try to be careful around others."Her dad doesn't smoke near her. Im sure, as in the pictures youll see of him smoking, hes by himself. So hes considerate about the air around him when hes smoking and doesn't want anybody exposed to hissecondhand smoke," he added.Fox News Digital has reached out to the Affleck family for comment.
