Democratic strategist James Carville claimed on Tuesday that race was the major factor in charging Democratic New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver for allegedly assaulting federal officers outside an ICE facility.While appearing on MSNBCs "The Beat with Ari Melber," Carville called the charges another line that had been crossed by the Trump administration, but added that there may have been worse motivations."My personal opinion [is] I think they went after her and I think her race has something to do with it. Ill just flat out and say that," Carville said.NEW JERSEY DEMOCRAT ACCUSED OF ASSAULTING OFFICERS DISMISSES 'ABSURD' CHARGESMelber asked him to substantiate the claim. Carville admitted he had no proof but insisted it was "what theyre about.""Because thats what theyre about, and theyre trying to show its us against them," Carville said. "They talk about the blood of America and the poisoning of blood, and they talk about this kind of stuff. Again, let me be very clear. I dont have any proof, but if you ask me, do I think thats what happened? Yes, I think thats what happened. I think if it was a White congressperson, they would not have arrested her. Ill just flat out say that."He went on to claim that the charges were made to "change the conversation" since "the economy is going terribly."White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson commented to Fox News Digital: "No one regardless of their job title can be allowed to assault ICE agents and get away with it. President Trump is committed to removing illegal aliens from the country and defending our brave law enforcement officers. To those who plan to break the law to defend criminal illegals and assault law enforcement agents: you will be held accountable."McIver was protesting at the Delaney Hall detention center earlier this month with two other members of Congress to conduct what they claimed were their mandated congressional oversight duties.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREActing U.S. attorney for the District of New Jersey Alina Habba said in a statement, "No one is above the law politicians or otherwise." She added, "It is the job of this office to uphold justice impartially, regardless of who you are. Now we will let the justice system work."Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in a post on X, "If any person, regardless of political party, influence or status, assaults a law enforcement officer as we witnessed Congresswoman McIver do, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.Law enforcement said McIver assaulted the agents when she "slammed her forearm into the body of a uniformed HSI agent, and reached out and tried to restrain the agent by forcibly grabbing him." Then, after Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested, McIver allegedly "pushed an ICE officer & used her forearms to forcibly strike the agent."On Wednesday, Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., introduced a House resolution to formally expel McIver.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

FIRST ON FOX: Foreign entities are snatching up U.S. real estate, even when Americans cannot buy property in their nations, according to Rep. Pat Harrigan, R-N.C., who told Fox News Digital he is introducing legislation to fix the problem.His bill, the Real Estate Reciprocity Act, would slap a 50% tax on real estate purchases by foreign nationals and entities who have government ties if their governments do not allow Americans to buy property in those countries.It would require all foreign nationals who purchase land to file with the IRS and require the secretary of state to report each year on which foreign countries prohibit U.S. citizens from owning real estate.TEXAS PUSHES BACK AGAINST FOREIGN LAND GRAB WITH 'STRONGEST BILL IN THE NATION' AGAINST CHINA, IRAN, RUSSIA"While American families struggle to afford a home, foreign adversaries are buying up our country with cash farmland, neighborhoods, even land near military bases. These regimes ban Americans from buying land on their soil, but think they can carve up ours,"Harrigan told Fox News Digital in a statement."My Real Estate Reciprocity Act stops it cold with a 50% tax on every purchase, mandatory disclosure, and protections for the ground we raise our kids on. If Americans cant buy land in your country, you wont be able to buy land in ours."A surprising number of nations have an outright ban or severe restrictions on foreigners purchasing land within their borders. Switzerland, New Zealand, Denmark, the Phillippines, Poland and Vietnam all have stringent rules on the books. In places like China and Saudi Arabia, foreigners cannot purchase land, but they can invest in real estate.Foreign buyers have long been accused of snatching up pricey apartments in metropolitan areas like New York City to park their assets, driving up housing costs.SENATE REPUBLICANS LAUNCH EFFORT TO BAN CHINESE NATIONALS FROM BUYING LAND IN USThe bill comes amid a slew of legislation designed to address Chinas increasing encroachment on U.S. farmland, particularly near military bases.China owned around 350,000 acres of farmland across 27 states as of last year, according to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.As of 2022, foreign entities and individuals held 43.4 million acres of U.S. agricultural land, which is nearly 2% of all land in the U.S.As of 2021, Canada was the largest foreign holder of U.S. land. At 12.8 million acres, Canadian land ownership was bigger than the states of New Hampshire and Vermont combined.

Fox News host Mark Levin unleashed a scathing rebuke of the radical fusion of Marxism and Islamists that he says are out to "destroy" America, accusing Hamas sympathizers of infiltrating multiple corners of society and fueling the antisemitic hatred that prompted the murders of two Israeli embassy staffers late Wednesday in Washington, D.C."They're marching through the streets like no Nazis ever have, like no Klansmen ever have in our country, calling for the destruction of the United States of America, the overthrow of the West, burning the American flag, chasing Jewish students on college campuses, threatening elderly Jews who hold signs on the streets peacefully, attacking our synagogues" the "Life, Liberty and Levin" host said Thursday on "Fox & Friends."Levin warned that America is not merely at risk. Rather, it is already at siege from within and the institutions too paralyzed or altogether unwilling to facilitate change Congress, the courts and even the previous presidential administration have created an easy opening that allows what he bluntly called the "enemy" to thrive.LIVE UPDATES: JEWISH COUPLE GUNNED DOWN OUTSIDE DC JEWISH MUSEUMHe placed much of the blame on open border policies and weak national resolve, accusing adversarial nations namely Qatar and China of internally fueling an anti-Western sentiment that has reared its head at U.S. colleges and universities in displays of antisemitism and anti-Israel protests in recent years.The rise of such ideology, empowered by weakness in the West is also enabling a modern-day "Kristallnacht" in the U.S. and in Europe, he said, referencing the infamous 1938 Nazi-led attack on Jewish homes, synagogues, and businesses in Germany also known as the "Night of Broken Glass."TRUMP ADMIN WONT TOLERATE ANTISEMITISM IN SCHOOLS, SAYS LEO TERRELL, AS NYC SCHOOLS UNDER MICROSCOPE"Jews are not safe in every capital in Europe, and now they're not safe in our capital" he cautioned."We need to learn and see what's taking place. This isn't about free speech This is being funded by Qatar and other countries There are more Islamist front groups in this country, terrorist front groups in this country, [and] they multiply like rabbits."Levin credited the Trump administration for doing "yeoman's work" to curb the threat, unlike the Biden administration, which he argued directly jeopardized national security and the integrity of Western ideals by failing to vet illegal immigrants while embracing open borders."Is this what we want? Is this who we are? Because the ruling class is letting us down. Seal the damn borders, which is what President Trump is doing. Stop every damn penny coming into this country from these terrorist states. I don't care if they put smiles on their faces and hold seminars or whatever the hell they're doing. They're the enemy."A witness to the shooting described on "Fox & Friends" that the gunman shouted "Free Palestine!" as he was being taken into custody by police.

The Supreme Court on Thursday voted in a 4-4 vote to uphold the Oklahoma State Supreme Court's decision in a landmark school choice case.Justices issued a one-sentence ruling upholding the lower court's decision, saying only: "The judgment is affirmed by an equally divided Court."The state had ruled that providing state funds for a religious charter school violated the First Amendment.Justice Amy Coney Barrett recused herself from the ruling, resulting in the 4-4 split.The Oklahoma Statewide Virtual Charter School Board approved St. Isidore's contract request in June 2023, making them eligible to receive public funds.But its ability to receive it was later blocked by the Oklahoma Supreme Court, which ruled that using public funds for the school was in violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.That argument was appealed to the Supreme Court, which agreed to hear the case last October.During oral arguments, the justices focused on two major questions. The first is whether charter schools should be treated as public schools, which are considered extensions of the state, and therefore subject to the Establishment Cause and its ban establishing or endorsing a religion, or whether it should be considered a private entities or contractor.The case is the first of its kind to involve religious charter schools.

House Republicans are celebrating the major victory they delivered early Thursday morning for President Donald Trump.Minutes after the GOP majority in the House of Representatives stood nearly entirely united to pass Trump's sweeping tax and spending cuts package by a razor-thin 215-214, Speaker Mike Johnson touted that "the House has passed generational, truly nation-shaping legislation."Johnson predicted the measure would, among other things, "reduce spending and permanently lower taxes for families and job creators and make government work more efficiently and effectively for all Americans."And Majority Whip Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota said that House Republicans have "shown time and time again that we deliver for the American people, especially when it matters most."HOW TRUMP'S SWEEPING BILL PASSED THROUGH THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVESBut with Republicans clinging to a fragile House majority, Democrats view the House passage of what's called Trump's "One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act" as political ammunition as they aim to win back control of the chamber in next year's midterm elections.Democratic National Committee chair Ken Martin, in deriding the legislation, pledged that "Democrats will do everything we can to kick those who are responsible for this bill out of office. We have Americans at our side. This vote will cost many, many Republicans their seats in the midterms."And Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chair Rep. Suzan DelBene of Washington State said in a Fox News Digital interview ahead of the final House vote that "were going to hold Republicans accountable, and there will be a price to pay."But the rival National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) disagrees."House Democrats just signed their own political death warrant. Voters won't forget how they betrayed working families. And Republicans won't let them," NRCC spokesman Mike Marinella argued in a statement.The GOP-crafted measure is stuffed full of Trump's campaign trail promises and second-term priorities on tax cuts, immigration, defense, energy and the debt limit. It includes extending his signature 2017 tax cuts and eliminating taxes on tips and overtime pay, providing billions for border security and codifying his controversial immigration crackdown.Passage of the bill in the House comes as the national debt currently sits at $36,214,475,432,210.84, according to Fox Business' National Debt Tracker.The massive package now heads to the Senate, where Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, the top Democrat in the chamber, said that "this is not one big, beautiful bill. Its ugly."As Democrats attack the measure, theyre highlighting the GOPs proposed restructuring of Medicaidthe nearly 60-year-old federal program that provides health coverage to roughly 71 million low-income Americans.FIRST ON FOX: THESE REPUBLICAN GOVERNORS SAY THEY STAND UNITED IN SUPPORT OF TRUMP'S ONE BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILLThe changes to Medicaid, as well as cuts to food stamps, another one of the nation's major safety net programs, were drafted in part as an offset to pay for extending Trump's 2017 tax cuts, which are set to expire later this year. The measure includes a slew of new rules and regulatory requirements for those seeking Medicaid coverage. Among them are a new set of work requirements for many of those seeking coverage."Lets be clear, all Republicans are talking about right now is how many people and how fast theyre going to take away healthcare. They have these huge cuts to Medicaid, 14 million people lose healthcare across the country, and theyre talking about how fast they can do that," said DelBene.Schumer argued that "theres nothing beautiful about stripping away peoples healthcare, forcing kids to go hungry, denying communities the resources they need, and increasing poverty."And Martin claimed that "the GOP budget will decimate local communities, blow an economic hole in rural America, and make us into a nation governed by and for a handful of elites."House Republicans push back against the Democrats' attacks and say what they are doing is putting an end to waste, fraud and abuse currently in the Medicaid system, so the program can work for the public in the way that it was intended.They call any talk that they are cutting aid to mothers, children, people with disabilities and the elderly a "flat out lie."And NRCC chair Rep. Richard Hudson of North Carolina told Fox News Digital in a statement ahead of the vote that "Republicans are ending waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid so the most vulnerable get the care they need.""Democrats are lying to protect a broken status quo that lets illegal immigrants siphon off billions meant for American families. Were strengthening Medicaid for future generations by protecting taxpayers and restoring integrity," Hudson added.Dating back to last year's presidential campaign, Trump has vowed not to touch Medicaid. On Tuesday, as he made a rare stop on Capitol Hill to meet behind closed doors with House Republicans in order to shore up support for the bill, Trump's message to fiscally conservative lawmakers looking to make further cuts to Medicaid was "Don't f--- around with Medicaid."While there are divisions between Republicans over Medicaid, and a chasm between the two major parties over the longstanding entitlement program, there is one point of agreement: This issue will continue to simmer on the campaign trail in one form or another long after the legislative battles on Capitol Hill are over.

FIRST ON FOX:Democrat Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto and Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy are reaching across the aisle to roll out a measure that would quickly deliver new and effective technologies to strengthen law enforcements ability to combat human and drug trafficking at the border, Fox News Digital has learned.Cortez Masto, D-Nev., and Cassidy, R-La., are working together to introduce the "Emerging Innovative Border Technologies Act," which would make innovation teams at U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) permanent. Innovation teams were first created at the agency in 2018.DEMOCRATIC SENATOR UNVEILS NEW PLAN TO TACKLE BORDER SECURITYThe bill would authorize the CBP commissioner to maintain one or more innovation teams to research and adapt commercial technologies to assist in border security operations and urgent mission needs.It also would require the Department of Homeland Security to submit a plan to Congress that assesses the performance parameters and security impacts of potential technologies, as well as the deactivation of former CBP technology."Technology continues to improve our everyday lives, and its just common sense that we look forways innovativetechnologies can help keep our border communities secure," Cortez Maso told Fox News Digital. "I am committed to helping CBPcontinue developing the tools they need to improve border security operations.""President Trump secured the southern border in his first 30 days," Cassidy told Fox News Digital. "Lets secure the border forever by using new technology."He added, "Lets stop fentanyl from flowing into our country."DEM'S IMMIGRATION REFORM PLAN ADDS BORDER PATROL AGENTS, OFFERS SELECT MIGRANTS PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIPThe senators told Fox News Digital that investments in border security technology will "strengthen CBPs detection and response time to cases of trafficking and illicit border crossings in remoteareas."The legislation would make innovation teams a more permanent and long-lasting part of Customs and Border operations.A Cortez Masto aide told Fox News Digital that the senator has been working to crack down on cross-border crime since she was attorney general of Nevada. The aide highlighted Cortez Mastos work with Republicans in the state, along with Mexican officials, to combat the rise of methamphetamine manufacturing and cross-border drug trafficking.In the Senate, she has authored legislation to combat drug trafficking online, which was signed into law, and passed legislation to eliminate illegal fentanyl supply chains. Cortez Masto has also introduceda bill that would crack down on the deadly fentanyl additive xylazine.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPMeanwhile, a similar version of the "Emerging Innovative Border Technologies Act" was introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Lou Correa, D-Calif., and Rep. Morgan Luttrell, R-Texas.Apprehensions at the U.S.-Mexico border have plummeted 93% under President Donald Trump's administration, according to new data from CBP released Monday.CBP says it averaged 279 apprehensions per day at the southern border in April, compared to 4,297 apprehensions in April 2024. The total apprehensions for April landed at 8,383, compared to April 2024's 129,000.CBP officials also noted that just five illegal immigrants were temporarily released into the U.S. during April, compared to 68,000 during the same month in 2024.Fox News' Anders Hagstrom and Bill Melugin contributed to this report.

Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, is under fire after a major report revealed that thousands of fraudulent ads have been allowed to run on its platforms.According to the Wall Street Journal, Meta accounted for nearly half of all scam complaints tied to Zelle transactions at JPMorgan Chase between mid-2023 and mid-2024.Other banks have also reported a high number of fraud cases linked to Meta's platforms.JOIN THE FREE "CYBERGUY REPORT": GET MY EXPERT TECH TIPS, CRITICAL SECURITY ALERTS AND EXCLUSIVE DEALS, PLUS INSTANT ACCESS TO MYFREE "ULTIMATE SCAM SURVIVAL GUIDE" WHEN YOU SIGN UP!The problem ofscam ads on Facebook has grown rapidly in recent years. Experts point to the rise ofcryptocurrency schemes,AI-generated content andorganized criminal groups operating from Southeast Asia. These scams range from fake investment opportunities to misleading product offers and even the sale of nonexistent puppies.FBI WARNS OF SCAM TARGETING VICTIMS WITH FAKE HOSPITALS AND POLICEOne example involves Edgar Guzman, a legitimate business owner in Atlanta, whose warehouse address was used by scammers in more than 4,400 Facebook and Instagram ads. These ads promised deep discounts on bulk merchandise, tricking people into sending money for products that never existed."What sucks is we have to break it to people that they've been scammed. We don't even do online sales," Guzman told reporters.HOW FACEBOOK SECRETLY COLLECTS YOUR INFORMATION EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T SIGNED UPMeta says it's fighting back with new technology and partnerships, including facial-recognition tools and collaborations with banks and other tech companies. A spokesperson described the situation as an"epidemic of scams" and insisted that Meta is taking aggressive action, removing more than 2 million accounts linked to scam centers in several countries this year alone.However, insiders tell a different story. Current and former Meta employees say the company has been reluctant to make it harder for advertisers to buy ads, fearing it could hurt the company's bottom line. Staff reportedly tolerated between eight and 32 fraud "strikes" before banning accounts and scam enforcement was deprioritized to avoid losing ad revenue.META ENDS FACT-CHECKING PROGRAM AS ZUCKERBERG VOWS TO RESTORE FREE EXPRESSION ON FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAMFBI WARNS OF SCAM TARGETING VICTIMS WITH FAKE HOSPITALS AND POLICEVictims of these scams often lose hundreds or even thousands of dollars. In one case, fake ads promised free spice racks from McCormick & Co. for just a small shipping fee, only to steal credit card details and rack up fraudulent charges. Another common scam involves fake puppy sales, with victims sending deposits for pets that never arrive. Some scam operations are even linked tohuman trafficking, with criminal groups forcing kidnapped victims to run online fraud schemes under threat of violence.THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE DOING WRONG WHEN SCAMMERS CALLMeta maintains that it is not legally responsible for fraudulent content on its platforms, citing Section 230 of federal law, which protects tech companies from liability for user-generated content. In court filings, Meta has argued that it"does not owe a duty to users" when it comes to policing fraud. Meanwhile, aclass-action lawsuit over allegedly inflated ad reach metrics is moving forward, putting even more pressure on Meta to address transparency and accountability.DON'T MISS OUT ON THESE MEMORIAL DAY BEST DEALS & DISCOUNTSStaying safe online takes a little extra effort, but it's well worth it. Here are some steps you can follow to avoid falling victim to scam ads.1. Check the source and use strong antivirus software:Look for verified pages and official websites. Scammers often copy the names and logos of trusted brands, but the web address or page details may be off. Always double-check the URL for slight misspellings or extra characters and avoid clicking links in ads if you're unsure about their legitimacy.The best way to safeguard yourself from malicious links that install malware, potentially accessing your private information, is to have strong antivirus software installed on all your devices. This protection can also alert you to phishing emails and ransomware scams, keeping your personal information and digital assets safe.Get my picks for the best 2025 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android and iOS devices.2. Be skeptical of deals that seem too good to be true:If an ad offers products at an unbelievable price or promises huge returns, pause and investigate before clicking. Scammers often use flashy discounts or urgent language to lure people in quickly. Take a moment to think before you act, and remember that if something sounds impossible, it probably is.3. Research the seller:Search for reviews and complaints about the company or individual. If you can't find any credible information, it's best to avoid the offer. A quick online search can reveal if others have reported scams or had bad experiences, and legitimate businesses usually have a track record you can verify.4. Consider using a personal data removal service:There are companies that can help remove your personal info from data brokers and people-search sites. This means less of your data floating around for scammers to find and use. While these services usually charge a fee, they can save you a lot of time and hassle compared to doing it all yourself. Over time, you might notice fewer spam calls, emails and even a lower risk of identity theft.Check out my top picks for data removal services here.5. Never share sensitive information:Don't enter your credit card or bank details on unfamiliar sites. If you're asked for personal information, double-check the legitimacy of the request. Scammers may ask for sensitive data under the guise of "verifying your identity" or processing a payment, but reputable companies will never ask for this through insecure channels.6. Keep your devices updated: Keeping yoursoftware updated adds an extra layer of protection against the latest threats. Updates often include important security patches that fix vulnerabilities hackers might try to exploit. By regularly updating your devices, you help close those security gaps and keep your personal information safer from scammers and malware.7. Report suspicious ads:If you see a scam ad on Facebook or Instagram, report it using the platform's tools. This helps alert others and puts pressure on Meta to take action. Reporting is quick and anonymous, and it plays a crucial role in helping platforms identify patterns and remove harmful content.8. Monitor your accounts:Regularly check your bank and credit card statements for unauthorized transactions, especially after making online purchases. Early detection can help you limit the damage if your information is compromised, and most banks have fraud protection services that can assist you if you spot something suspicious.By following these steps, you can better protect yourself and your finances from online scams. Staying alert and informed is your best defense in today's digital world.The mess with scam ads on Meta's platforms shows why it's important to look out for yourself online. Meta says it's working on the problem, but many people think it's not moving fast enough. By staying careful, questioning suspicious offers and using good security tools, you can keep yourself safer. Until the platforms step up their game, protecting yourself is the smartest move you can make.Should Meta be doing more to protect its users from scam ads, even if it means making changes that could affect its advertising revenue?
