Students interrupted Columbia Universitys graduation ceremony in New York City on Tuesday morning by heckling Acting University President Claire Shipman and shouting, "Free Mahmoud!"Shipman was immediately met with boos when she stepped up to the podium to speak during the Columbia College Class Day ceremony.The crowd continued to heckle Shipman as she spoke about the class facing more trials and hardships than it deserved while proving that it can adapt as things shift quickly."Youve proven that you can adapt as things shift quickly that you are uncommonly resilient and that you care profoundly about the world and the people in it," she said, having to restart her sentence several times.COLUMBIA STUDENTS DESCRIBE SHOCKING LIBRARY TAKEOVER AFTER MASKED PROTESTERS CHANTED PRO-HAMAS SLOGANSShipman told the students they are all classmates and have formed deep friendships and wonderful relationships. She also pointed out that many of the students have had their differences with one another, but also with Shipman herself."But at every turn Im hearing more and more stories of deep empathy across divides," she said.But as Shipman continued to make her point that the work of the student class generation will be to define and shape the values of what she eventually called "these interesting times," she was interrupted yet again.The students began to shout, "Free Mahmoud," referring to the accused ringleader of pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia, Mahmoud Khalil. The chants continued for nearly 30 seconds.COLUMBIA'S ACTING PRESIDENT SLAMS STORMING OF CAMPUS LIBRARY BY ANTI-ISRAEL AGITATORS: 'UTTERLY UNACCEPTABLE'Shipman stood there and continued to look out at the crowd, while appearing to hold back any ounce of emotion to give the agitators a feeling of accomplishment.Still, once the agitators calmed down, the acting president was able to get through her final points."The work of your generation will be to define and shape these interesting times to define the value and the direction of this century," she said. "It will also be to rebuild trust by reaching out and creating common ground so that others will follow."COLUMBIA GRADS SHRED DIPLOMAS OVER MAHMOUD KHALIL ARREST: 'WE ARE ENRAGED'Earlier this month, Shipman denounced the occupation of the campus library after more than 100 anti-Israel agitators stormed the building, resulting in dozens of arrests and two university officers getting injured.She issued a statement at the time to the campus community, addressing the hours-long incident at Butler Library, which she described as "utterly unacceptable."A mob of protesters showed up at the library as students were studying for finals, reportedly to rally support for Khalil. They also continued to demand the university divest from Israel.COLUMBIA STUDENTS CONFRONT ANTI-ISRAEL PROTESTERS WHO STORMED CLASSROOM WITH ANTISEMITIC FLYERSColumbia's acting president said at the time that she went to the library "as the events were unfolding" and was disappointed with what she saw, including one Columbia public safety officer being wheeled out on a gurney and another being treated for injuries.Shipman also said the reading room at the library was "defaced and damaged in disturbing ways and with disturbing slogans.""Violence and vandalism, hijacking a librarynone of that has any place on our campus. These arent Columbias values," she said.Shipman, who took over in March following the resignation of the former president and the stepping down of the subsequent interim president, said this behavior will not be tolerated at Columbia.Tuesdays heckling also comes a day after Columbia student Mohsen Mahdawi was allowed to walk across a graduation stage and receive his degree from the Ivy League school.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPThe 34-year-old activist, draped in a keffiyeh, smiled as he took the stage.Court documents show Mahdawi was investigated twice in 2015 and 2016 for disturbing and antisemitic comments.

In another incident, police allege he said he "used to build modified 9mm submachine guns to kill Jews while he was in Palestine."Fox News Digitals Elizabeth Pritchett contributed to this report.

The Trump administration on Tuesday took steps to begin enforcing a law that requires truck drivers to speak English.Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was in Austin, Texas, where he signed an order to direct the Department of Transportation to enforce the law.Duffy framed the move as a safety issue for America's roadways.TRUMP TO MAKE ENGLISH OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF US IN NEW EXECUTIVE ORDER"For too long, misguided policies have prioritized political correctness over safety of the American people," Duffy said.Under federal law, a driver must "read and speak the English language sufficiently to converse with the general public, to understand highway traffic signs and signals in the English language, to respond to official inquiries, and to make entries on reports and records."The move came after President Donald Trump signed an executive order on April 28 directing the Department of Transportation to include English literacy tests for our truckers.GOOGLE MAPS, FAA OFFICIALLY ACKNOWLEDGES GULF OF AMERICA AFTER TRUMP DECLARATION: 'ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL?'"You might not know, but there's a lot of communication problems between truckers on the road with federal officials and local officials, as well, which obviously is a public safety risk," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said at the time. "So we're going to ensure that our truckers, who are the backbone of our economy, are all able to speak English. That's a very commonsense policy."Before 2015, more than 99,000 drivers had English proficiency violations and a thousand were taken out of service, Duffy said.Many of those drivers were given a "slap on the wrist," he said."English is the language of opportunity in America," the secretary said. "Allowing drivers who can not read stop signs, or understand police officers' instructions to operate an 80,000-pound big rig threatens the safety of every American on our roadways."Moving forward, truckers would be taken out of service if they are pulled over and found unable to speak English.

President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the U.S. will soon begin construction of a "Golden Dome" missile defense system they say will be a next-generation "game changer" protecting the American homeland from outside adversaries.A similar system, the Iron Dome, has already been developed in Israel with U.S. assistance and has proven effective in repelling missile attacks. Now. Trump says a bigger, more technologically advanced, multi-layered dome system will soon be installed in America.The president announced the "one big beautiful" budget bill being discussed in Congress will include $25 billion in initial funding for the project, which he expects will cost $175 billion overall. He said he expects a major phase of the dome will be complete in under three years and that it will be "fully operational before the end of my term."He noted there is significant support for the project in Congress, quipping, "It's amazing how easy this one is to fund."HEGSETH REVEALS PLANS TO COUNTER CHINA, STAY AHEAD IN ARMS RACE AS PENTAGON PIVOTS TO INDO-PACIFIC"In the campaign, I promised the American people that I would build a cutting-edge missile defense shield to protect our homeland from the threat of foreign missile attack. And that's what we're doing today," he said, adding that the Golden Dome "will be capable of intercepting missiles even if they are launched from the other side of the world and even if they are launched from space."Trump also announced he is placing Space Force Gen. Michael Guetlein in charge of the project, saying, "Noone is more qualified for this job."Hegseth called the Golden Dome a "bold initiative" and another addition to Trumps "long and growing list of promises made and promises kept."He said investing in the new system is essential to respond to growing threats from countries like Russia and China."Ultimately, this right here, the Golden Dome for America, is a game changer," said Hegseth. "It's a generational investment in the security of America and Americans."TRUMP'S TOUGH POLICIES PUSH UK, EU TO SIGNIFICANTLY EXPAND TRADE AND DEFENSEAddressing Trump, Hegseth said, "Mr. President, you said were going to secure our southern border and get 100% operational control after the previous administration allowed an invasion of people into our country. President Reagan 40 years ago cast the vision for it. The technology wasn't there. Now it is, and you're following through to say we will protect the homeland from cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, hypersonic missiles, drones, whether they're conventional or nuclear."Guetlein indicated the Golden Dome is necessary to preserve the safety, security and the quality of life Americans are used to."We owe it to our children and our children's children to protect them and afford them a quality of life that we have all grown up enjoying. Golden dome will afford that," said Guetlein.MARCO RUBIO: WE SHOULD BE HAPPY WE HAVE A PRESIDENT WHO SEEKS PEACEThe general said "our adversaries have become very capable and very intent on holding the homeland at risk.""While we have been focused on keeping the peace overseas, our adversaries have been quickly modernizing their nuclear forces, building up ballistic missiles capable of hosting multiple warheads, building out hypersonic missiles capable of attacking the United States within an hour and traveling at 6,000 miles an hour, building cruise missiles that can navigate around our radar and our defenses, building submarines that can sneak up on our shores and, worse yet, building space weapons," Guetlein said."It is time that we change that equation and start doubling down on the protection of the homeland."

Sarah Silverman revealed a shocking family secret that her late father, Donald Silverman, once shared with her about her baby brother Jeffrey's tragic death.In a new interview with Rolling Stone, the 54-year-old comedian recalled the moment that Donald told her about how he believed Jeffrey, who passed away at three-months-old, really died."Im going to tell you a big bomb," Silverman said.Silverman recalled that for most of her life, she was always told one version of the circumstances behind Jeffrey's death. The "Saturday Night Live" alum explained that at the time of Jeffrey's death, her paternal grandparents, Max and Rose, were caring for the infant while Donald and her late mother Beth Ann O'Hara were on vacation."The story was that something happened with the crib, and Jeffreys little body slid and he got suffocated," Silverman said. "But if you look back, there was never a lawsuit with the crib company or anything."However, Silverman told the outlet that Donald shared a very different story in 2022 when he attended a production of her musical "The Bedwetter" at the Atlantic Theatre Company's Linda Gross Theatre in New York City.

Donald passed away in May 2023, shortly after the death of his longtime wife Janice.After Donald's death, Silverman shared a tribute to her late father on Instagram."My best pal, Schleppy my dad, died last night," she wrote in the caption of the post, which featured photos of herself with Donald. "All the sisters, and grandkids surrounded him with love and singing and very dark fked up jokes this final week."She continued, "But ultimately, he wanted to be with his love, Janice, who we lost last Monday.
