WWW.FOXNEWS.COMAngel Reese 'owes' Fever fans 'an apology' after WNBA finds no evidence of hateful remarks, senator saysThe WNBA found in an investigation that alleged "hateful comments" directed toward Angel Reese during her game against the Indiana Fever were "not substantiated."Reese and her Chicago Sky faced the Fever and Caitlin Clark, and at one point, the two had to be separated after a flagrant foul by Clark against Reese. The association announced the next day that it would launch an investigation into the alleged comments.On Tuesday, the investigation closed.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMFollowing the news that the investigation was over, Sen. Jim Banks, R-Ind., fired at Reese."Angel Reese owes Indiana fans an apology," he posted on X.It is unclear whether Reese herself notified the WNBA to prompt the investigation. Sky head coach Tyler Marsh found out about the reports "when everyone else did." However, Reese has said in the past that Fever and Iowa fans have been racist toward her.Last week, she even reposted a TikTok that said she was "unsafe" while playing against the Fever in Indiana. The video also called out the WNBA for allowing Reese to play in such an environment.When speaking about the investigation last week, Reese said there was "no place" for such language. Clark herself said she "appreciate[d]" the league for conducting an investigation.FEVER COACH SEES SILVER LINING AS CAITLIN CLARK SIDELINED WITH QUAD INJURYThe WNBA announced on Tuesday the investigation had concluded."Based on information gathered to date, including from relevant fans, team and arena staff, as well as audio and video review of the game, we have not substantiated [the report]. The WNBA is committed to fostering a safe and inclusive environment for everyone and will continue to be vigilant in enforcing our fan code of conduct," the association said.Pacers Sports & Entertainment CEO Mel Raines released a statement as well."We appreciate the swift and thorough process undertaken by the WNBA to investigate these allegations, which were not substantiated," Raines said. "At Gainbridge Fieldhouse, we are committed to providing the best possible basketball experience for players and fans where hate speech has absolutely no place. Indiana is home to the world's greatest fans, and we look forward to an exciting season of Fever basketball."The Sky said in a statement of their own, "We appreciate the quick action by the league and the Indiana Fever to take this matter seriously and to investigate. This process demonstrates the league's strong stance on stopping hate at all WNBA games and events, and we will continue to support those efforts."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 82 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMDeSantis goads Congress to follow FLs DOGE blueprint as Musks cuts still wait for voteGov. Ron DeSantis urged House Republicans to take note of Floridas successful implementation of "DOGE"-type governance and get moving on slashing waste, fraud and abuse identified by the executive branch organization."Elon Musk took massive incoming including attacks on his companies as well as personal smears, to lead the effort on DOGE," DeSantis posted on X."He became public enemy #1 of legacy media around the world. To see Republicans in Congress cast aside any meaningful spending reductions (and, in fact, fully fund things like USAID) is demoralizing and represents a betrayal of the voters who elected them," the Republican said on Tuesday.DeSantis had reposted a comment from former government scientist Matt van Swol, who claimed congressional Republicans have not done enough to go to bat for DOGE.WINNERS, LOSERS AND GRAB-BAGS FROM HOUSE GOP'S NARROW PASSAGE OF BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL"DOGE is literally one of the most popular government initiatives in history. 73% of Americans say they support cutting government waste. Trump brought in the smartest man on earth to do it the Left destroyed Elon for it the GOP wont vote on it I cant believe this," van Swol said in the shared message.In remarks Tuesday, DeSantis expounded upon his concerns, saying that Floridas executive branch has successfully implemented DOGE-type policies in the state, increasing affordability, lowering taxes and ridding Tallahassee of waste and fraud.He said Florida has been a state for 180 years, and it was his own administration who reportedly paid down 41% of its accumulated debt to-date.DeSantis said the average Floridians share of the state debt is $400, while federally, their onus is about $105,000.The governor noted how Musk stuck his neck out for DOGE and saw his car dealerships "firebombed" and how the media "smearing him relentlessly because he basically said, look, we cant keep doing this""And yet, we have a Republican Congress, and to this day, we're in the end of May, past Memorial Day, and not one cent in DOGE cuts have been implemented by the Congress," the one-time congressman said.DEMS CALL BUDGET BILL BUREAUCRATIC WATER TORTURE AS GOP GLAD TO HAVE THE BALL IN OUR COURT"That's one of the reasons why we need a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It's another reason why we need term limits for members of Congress. But I think what you've seen with how, and I kind of said this early on, that DOGE and Elon were on a collision course with the swamp."Libertarian-minded Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., had lodged a similar complaint claiming that rescission votes to act on DOGE's proposed cuts were "cancelled" earlier in May but a top aide to House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., disputed the claim."No votes on rescissions were cancelled this week. The Speaker has repeatedly expressed his commitment to save taxpayer funds via the rescissions process," wrote press secretary Athina Lawson."Under law, this process requires a special message to Congress detailing proposed rescissions before Congress can act."House Republicans could not include any DOGE cuts in the "big beautiful bill" because, in order to pass the Senate, the bill could only deal with statutorily "mandatory" spending concerns.The rules of Senate Reconciliation preclude that move as well.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPThe two options House Republicans have are to wait for a formal rescission request for a cut or cuts from Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought a Trump appointee and take that up within 45 days, or try to pass separate legislation themselves through the appropriations process.The issue with the latter is that legislation independent of a request originating from the executive branch would require 60 votes while a rescission request only requires a simple majority.Republicans currently hold 53 seats in the Senate. Two independents Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Angus King, Jr. of Maine caucus with Democrats.However, Republicans have had luck putting Democrats in a bind via the appropriations process, as the last passage of the typically massive bills led to members of that party turning on its leader Sen. Charles Schumer of New York for ultimately voting to fund the government earlier this year.Fox News Digital reached out to DeSantis and Johnson for comment.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 90 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMAmerican tennis star Danielle Collins defends outburst toward cameraman during tournamentAmerican tennis star Danielle Collins on Tuesday defended her outburst toward a cameraman during a tournament last week.Collins incident occurred at the Internationaux de Strasbourg against Emma Raducanu. During a changeover, she told the cameraman to keep their distance as she refilled her water bottle. She said the cameraman was acting "wildly inappropriate."CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMShe spoke at length about it after the victory over Jodie Anna Burrage in the first round of the French Open."I think what happened in Strasbourg is just me asking for personal space at my work place. I dont know why that is even a topic of discussion," she said, via The Tennis Letter. "It should be something that we can get to have during, like, our work. The fact that Ive had to ask so many different times in my career and during different matches to just have an adequate level of personal space is kind of strange."I think often times it seems like my response is treated like the offense itself. Im learning that as a female, asking for personal space seems to be an issue for a lot of people. I think its really pathetic honestly, that its even a topic of discussion. Its something that over time ... theres been no one thats been able to make the adjustment."Collins said that in the video that went viral across social media there was "so much people dont see." She said fans "dont see the person go and stand right on top of Emma to get a good shot of me in about a 2-3 foot space."FRENCH OPEN CONTENDER COCO GAUFF POWERS THROUGH FIRST-ROUND VICTORY DESPITE RACKET MISTAKEShe added that she needed to be able to focus on the match itself without having a camera in her face."Im doing a performance job. Im trying to focus on my work. Im trying to maintain my focus and concentration," Collins said. "My job requires channeling physical, emotional, and then logical things going on. Its my job to kind of put that all together. The last thing I should be focusing on is someone thats right on top of my opponent and right in my face. Its just really unnecessary."Collins wondered where the line was for those working behind the camera."I dont necessarily think it was creepy," she said. "But I think we should all be able to say, like, Hey. I would like some physical space. You go to different tournaments, and you ask nicely most of the time. You ask politely. That doesnt get reported on. But the time I get upset about at it, that response is treated as the offense itself. And thats what I find most interesting about it."The Florida native has never made it past the quarterfinals of the French Open.She is set to take on Serbias Olga Danilovic in the second round.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 94 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMDOJ sues North Carolina over voter rollsThe Department of Justice (DOJ) sued the State of North Carolina and the North Carolina State Board of Elections on Tuesday for allegedly failing to maintain an accurate voter list.The Trump administration claims the Tar Heel State is in violation of the 2002 Help America Vote Act (HAVA) after board officials provided a statewide voter registration form that did not make clear whether an applicant must provide a drivers license number, or if the applicant does not have a drivers license, the last four digits of the applicants social security number. If an applicant has neither, the law says the state must assign a special identifying number.The lawsuit says, "a significant number of North Carolina voters who did not provide a drivers license number or the last four digits of a social security number using that voter registration form were nonetheless registered by their election officials, in violation of HAVA" and the defendants "only took limited actions to prevent further violations."FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERS NC TO CERTIFY SUPREME COURT ELECTION RESULTS WITH DEMOCRAT LEADING"Upon information and belief there currently are a significant number of voters that do not have a drivers license number, last four digits of a social security number, or any other identifying number, as required by Section 303 of HAVA, listed in North Carolinas state voter registration file," according to the filing in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. "Those violations will continue absent relief from this Court.""Accurate voter registration rolls are critical to ensure that elections in North Carolina are conducted fairly, accurately, and without fraud," Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Departments Civil Rights Division said in a statement. "The Department of Justice will not hesitate to file suit against jurisdictions that maintain inaccurate voter registration rolls in violation of federal voting laws."A previous edition of the state elections board, in which Democrats held a majority, acknowledged the problem in late 2023 after a voter complained. The board updated the voter registration form but declined to contact people who had registered to vote since 2004 in time for the 2024 elections so they could fill in the missing numbers.According to the lawsuit, the board indicated that such information would be accumulated on an ad hoc basis as voters appeared at polling places. It is unclear exactly how many voters' records still lack identifying numbers.Lawyers from the DOJ Civil Rights Division want a judge to give the state 30 days to develop a plan to contact voters with records that do not comply with federal law, obtain an identifying number for each and add that to the electronic list.The state and national GOP last year sued over the lack of identifying numbers, which they estimated could have affected 225,000 registrants. However, federal judges declined to make changes so close to the general election.The lawsuit also referred to President Donald Trump's executive order on elections in March to "guard against illegal voting, unlawful discrimination, and other forms of fraud, error, or suspicion."FEDERAL JUDGE KICKS BATTLE OVER NC SUPREME COURT ELECTION BACK TO STATE COURTAfter Election Day, formal protests were filed by Jefferson Griffin, a Republican candidate for a seat on the state Supreme Court, who challenged about 65,500 ballots. He contended that about 60,000 were cast by registrants whose records failed to contain one of the two identifying numbers. The state election board said earlier this year at least roughly half of those voters actually did provide an identifying number.Griffin also challenged another 5,500 ballots belonging to overseas military personnel and their family members who were not required to attach a copy of their photo IDs, as well those in a category of "Never Residents," or U.S. citizens with family ties to North Carolina who have never lived in the United States.A state appeals court criticized the board's handling of the registration records but ultimately ruled the challenged ballots had to remain in the final election tally.Six months passed during what amounted to be the nations last contested 2024 election.Democratic Associate Justice Allison Riggs was ultimately certified as the winner over Griffin by 734 votes out of over 5.5 million ballots cast. Griffin conceded earlier this month but said he did not fully agree with the courts analysis.This month, the state election boards composition changed to reflect a 2024 law approved by the GOP-dominated General Assembly that shifted the boards appointment powers from the now-Democratic governor to Republican State Auditor Dave Boliek. A previous 3-2 Democratic majority is now a 3-2 Republican majority.The new iteration of the board sounds open to embracing the Justice Departments wishes.Executive Director Sam Hayes said late Tuesday the lawsuit was being reviewed, "but the failure to collect the information required by HAVA has been well documented.""Rest assured that I am committed to bringing North Carolina into compliance with federal law," he said, according to The Associated Press.Local elections start in September.The Associated Press contributed to this report.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 95 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMDANNY DANON: UN officials fueling blood libels after DC terror attack on Israeli diplomatsThe U.N.s libel has led to bloodshed.The blood of a beautiful young couple, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, who worked together at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C.The couple were deeply in love, with Yaron secretly planning to propose to Sarah this week in Jerusalem.FROM CAMPUS PROTESTS TO DEADLY VIOLENCE: ISRAELI EMBASSY STAFF MURDERED IN DCInstead of a wedding, their families planned a funeral, after a deranged terrorist gunned them both down in an antisemitic assassination on two Israeli diplomats on American soil, while screaming "Free Palestine" as they were leaving an event for young diplomats outside the Capital Jewish Museum.The event was organized by the American Jewish Committee, one of the countrys most reputable Jewish human rights agencies, and the event itself was centered on finding ways to facilitate humanitarian aid to Gaza.This abhorrent act of terrorism did not take place in a vacuum.It took place days after one of the U.N.s senior-most officials, Tom Fletcher, falsely accused Israel of genocide and falsely asserted that 14,000 Gazan children were on the verge of starving to death within 48 hours.Since then, Fletcher has failed to offer any apology or clarification, and two Israeli diplomats are dead.SIGN UP FOR ANTISEMITISM EXPOSED NEWSLETTERHis claim, a lie detached from reality, was beamed across social media and plastered on news headlines and undoubtedly inflamed individuals looking for an excuse to attack Jews and Israelis.Fletchers lie has since been exposed, and some news outlets offered retractions, but those retractions do not put the bullets back in the gun. They will not bring back Yaron and Sarah, and they will not undo the violent damage done by those who so callously slander the Middle Easts only democracy without a second thought.Last week was a stark reminder of where demonization and fanning the flames of hate can lead: to violence inflicted on innocent people by deranged lunatics, who are emboldened by the blood libels chanted on our college campuses and in august institutions like the U.N.s Security Council.The UNs antisemitism problem, though, is not just confined to Fletcher.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONAnother well-known official, U.N. Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, regularly and with impunity, promotes antisemitic tropes and condones terrorism. When Albanese is not touring college campuses to spread hatred, she is using her elevated platform to compare Israelis to the Nazis, distort the events of the Holocaust, propagate conspiracies about Jewish power and minimize the horrific events of October 7, 2023.History will judge the U.N. if it allows such blood libels to continue to go unchecked.Israel will not stop fighting for the release of all of our hostages still held in brutal captivity by Hamas, the terrorist organization that triggered this war on Oct. 7, 2023. We will also continue to expose the blinding hatred and shameless ambition that appear to be driving some of these U.N. individuals who forget how this war started.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 59 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMKevin Costner sued for allegedly directing 'violent unscripted' rape scene without consentKevin Costner is being sued by a stuntwoman who alleged that she was made to perform an unscripted rape scene without proper notice, consent or the mandatory presence of an intimacy coordinator while she was working on the actor and director's upcoming movie "Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 2."In the sequel film, Devyn LaBella was the lead stunt double for actress Ella Hunt, who played one of the "Horizon" movies' main characters, Juliette Chesney. "Horizon: An American Saga" is a four-part Western film series that was co-written, produced and directed by Costner, who also stars.In a complaint filed Tuesday in the Superior Court of California for Los Angeles County and obtained by Fox News Digital, LaBella sued Costner and his production companies for sexual harassment, sexual discrimination, the creation of a hostile workplace environment and retaliation stemming from an alleged on-set incident in May 2023.In a statement to Fox News Digital, Costner's attorney, Marty Singer, emphatically denied the allegations made against his client, saying that LaBella's claim "has absolutely no merit."The lawsuit claimed that, "On May 2, 2023, plaintiff Devyn LaBella, a female stunt performer, was the victim of a violent unscripted, unscheduled rape scene directed by Kevin Costner."HORIZON DIRECTOR KEVIN COSTNER GRATEFUL GOD ALLOWED HIM TO MAKE EPIC MOVIE DESPITE MASSIVE PERSONAL RISKS"The impact of this impromptu work demand on Ms. Labella has been profound, not only upending a career Ms. Labella spent years building but leaving her with permanent trauma that she will be required to address for years to come," the documents added.LaBella is suing for unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, and she has requested a trial by jury.According to the lawsuit, stunt coordinator Wade Allen hired LaBella on a SAG-AFTRA contract to work as Hunt's stunt double during the filming of "Horizon 2," which took place in Utah. Under SAG-AFTRA protocols, any scenes involving nudity or simulated sex require 48 hours prior notice, consent and a closed set along with the right for the performer to bring an intimacy coordinator.The lawsuit stated that Hunt's "Horizon 2" contract stipulated that the presence of an intimacy coordinator was mandatory for all scenes involving nudity or simulated sex, a requirement that was also extended to anyone acting as the actress' stand-in, including LaBella.Per the lawsuit, LaBella began filming "Horizon 2" in April 2023."For the first several weeks, Ms. LaBella professionally performed her stunts without incident," the documents read. "However, this experience changed dramatically. Due to its very physical nature, Defendants informed Ms. LaBella she would be doubling for the majority of a scripted, aggressive and intimate rape scene" between Juliette and a male actor's character.According to the documents, the scene was filmed on May 1, 2023, and LaBella and the actors previously rehearsed it with Wade and an intimacy coordinator. During the filming of the scene, the set was closed, and the intimacy coordinator was present."The scene wrapped, and no issues were noted," the lawsuit stated.Per the documents, LaBella was on set to film a "non-intimate scene" the following day. The lawsuit alleged that Costner, who was present on the set, improvised additional scenes in which Juliette would be raped by a different character played by another actor.KEVIN COSTNER BRINGS HIS NEW 'LOVE' TO HORIZON' SET AS PRODUCTION ON THIRD WESTERN IS UNDERWAYThe new scenes required the actor to "climb on top of Ms. Hunt, violently raking up her skirt," the documents claimed. "Due to the ad hoc and violent nature of the sudden script change request, along with the failure to secure a contractually required intimacy coordinator for the scene, Ms. Hunt became visibly upset and walked off the set, refusing to do the scene," the documents alleged.LaBella claimed that Costner asked her to serve as a "stand-in" for Hunt after the actress's departure. She alleged that Costner directed the other actor to "repeatedly perform a violent simulated rape" on her "without proper notice, consent, preparation, or appropriate safeguard measures in place, such as the projects intimacy coordinator being called in."According to the lawsuit, LaBella was unaware that Hunt had left the set after allegedly refusing to perform the scene.In addition, LaBella alleged that the set was not closed."Unlike the shots from the previous day, which were limited to just the actors involved engaging in a choreographed situation with a stunt coordinator, an intimacy coordinator and some of lead production personnel present and all nonessential production people excluded, on May 2, the entire experience was broadcast over monitors," the lawsuit claimed."Further increasing confusion and stress for Ms. LaBella, the scene on May 2nd had no clear direction of when the scene began or ended. Defendant Costner failed to announce or to consistently announce "action" at the beginning or "cut" at the end of a shoot," the documents stated."After the action had already begun, there was no time or space to process or reject the direction that was given."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLaBella also alleged that Allen and the intimacy coordinator were not informed that the scene was taking place.After the filming of the scene was completed, LaBella "experienced shock, embarrassment and humiliation while attempting to process the situation."LaBella said she experienced "sudden bouts of crying on and off set" for the next few days and "broke down in the hair trailer" at one point. According to the documents, LaBella flew home for several days to spend time with family before returning to the set."However, the situation on the set upon her return was very awkward," the documents claimed. "The production team was now extra careful around Ms. LaBella. She was directed to stay alone in her trailer and not be present on set, even though this resulted in her being dressed in costume for full days and then not used.""Multiple people apologized to her over the course of days and made excuses for Director Costner, all of which made her feel even more uncomfortable," the lawsuit added.After production wrapped, LaBella claimed that she began therapy in June 2023 to "address symptoms" of the alleged experience, which included "intrusive distressing memories of the traumatic event, sleep disturbance, fears of intimacy, and anxiety."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER"On that day, I was left exposed, unprotected, and deeply betrayed by a system that promised safety and professionalism," LaBella said in a statement to Fox News Digital."What happened to me shattered my trust and forever changed how I move through this industry," she continued. "As I continue performing and step into my journey of stunt coordination, I operate with a fierce commitment to upholding the highest standards, creating sets where safety, communication, and consent are non-negotiable.""This experience has ignited in me a lifelong mission to be the advocate I once needed, ensuring no one else is ever left as vulnerable as I was."In a statement, Singer told Fox News Digital, "Our client, Kevin Costner, always wants to make sure that everyone is comfortable working on his films and takes safety on set very seriously. However, this claim by Devyn LaBella has absolutely no merit, and it is completely contradicted by her own actions and the facts."Singer labeled LaBella "a serial accuser of people in the entertainment industry," adding, "But those shakedown tactics wont work in this case."As a stunt performer on Horizon 2, the scene in question was explained to Ms. LaBella, and after she performed the rehearsal in character with another actor, she gave her Stunt Coordinator supervisor [Allen] a "thumbs up" and indicated her willingness to then shoot the scene, if needed (which she was not)," Singer stated."That night, Ms. LaBella had dinner with her supervisor, the stunt coordinator, and with the assistant stunt coordinator, and she was in good spirits and made no complaints to them," he continued. "She continued to work on the movie for a few more weeks until her wrap date, and she took the stunt coordinator to a thank-you dinner."Singer also pointed to a text that LaBella allegedly sent to Allen which was "illustrated with happy heart emojis" and read: "Thank you for these wonderful weeks! I so appreciate you! I learned so much and thank you again. Im really happy it worked out the way it did to. Have a great rest of the shoot and yes talk soon!""The facts are clear, and we are beyond confident that Kevin will prevail," Singer concluded.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 61 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMWatchdog finds 'no evidence' Biden knew of crucial climate EOs, demands answers on who signed autopenFIRST ON FOX:A pro-energy group is renewing its call for an investigation into over half a dozen Biden administration executive actions related to climate that it believes should be deemed null and void due to them being signed by an autopen without any public comment from former President Joe Biden confirming his knowledge of them.Power the Future, a nonprofit organization that advocates for American energy jobs, reviewed eight Biden executive orders that it says were significant shifts in domestic energy policy and said it found no evidence of the president speaking about any of them publicly, raising concerns that the orders were signed by autopen and that he was not aware of them."These are not obscure bureaucratic memos; these were foundational shifts in American energy policy, yet not once did Joe Biden speak about them publicly," Daniel Turner, founder and executive director of Power The Future, told Fox News Digital.The executive orders reviewed by Power the Future include anArctic drilling ban in 2023, a2021 executive order committing the federal government to net-zero emissions by 2050, anexecutive order mandating "clean energy" AI centersand an offshore drilling banexecutive order shortly before leaving office in 2025.PRO-ENERGY GROUP URGES AG BONDI TO PROBE BIDEN'S AUTOPEN ON CRUCIAL DECISIONS THAT DEVASTATED INDUSTRYFinding no evidence of Biden publicly speaking about the executive orders on climate, Power the Future sent letters this week to the DOJ, EPA, DOI, DOE, along with the House and Senate Oversight Committees, calling for an investigation to determine who made the decisions, drafted the executive orders and ultimately signed them."In light of the growing evidence that actions purportedly taken by the former president may not have been approved or signed by him, but instead promulgated by a small coterie of advisers in his name without his knowledge or over his signature using an autopen, the need for congressional access to information has grown in importance with these revelations," the letter to GOP House Oversight Chair James Comer states."Congress deserves to know how or whether these executive actions were authorized, and whether the former President was aware of such orders before they were implemented by the federal bureaucracy. Were these actions taken on behalf of the president and purporting to execute his authority undertaken with the presidents knowledge and approach? It appears incumbent upon Congress to inquire, about all parties involved in these actions, who instructed them to do what, when."WHAT IS AN AUTOPEN? THE SIGNING DEVICE AT THE HEART OF TRUMP'S ATTACKS ON BIDEN PARDONSFox News Digital reached out to Bidens office for comment but did not hear back by press time.The presidential autopen has been a topic of conversation with Republicans in recent weeks and months as questions continue about Bidens mental acuity during his presidency, particularly the last few years, which have faced increased scrutiny after the release of Jake Tapper and Alex Thompsons book "Original Sin.""Power The Future remains concerned that key policies of major economic and national security significance directed by the White House during the Biden administration may have been undertaken without presidential awareness and approval, but perhaps instead by a small coterie of staff," the letter states."Although this likelihood has become more apparent by claims made in a recent book titled Original Sin, those claims merely support information that had already emerged."An autopen is a device that physically holds a pen and is programmed to replicate a persons signature. The Justice Departments Office of Legal Counsel determined in 2005 that the president is permitted to use an autopen to sign bills into law, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit issued a ruling in February that said the absence of "a writing does not equate to proof that a commutation did not occur."In March,President Donald Trump claimed that Bidens pardons of lawmakers who served on the House Select Committee to investigate the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot, and others, are "VOID," alleging that they had been signed via an autopen and that Biden did not even know about them.DAVID MARCUS: OLD MAN BIDENS AUTOPEN PARDONS SHOULD BE NULL AND VOIDDespite Trump's concerns over the validity of Biden's pardons due to the alleged use of an autopen, constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley told Fox News Digital that the odds of successfully legally challenging them in court are "vanishingly low.""Presidents are allowed to use the autopen, and courts will not presume a dead-hand conspiracy," Turley said.Power the Futures letter references House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who in January shared thatBiden, during a meeting, appeared to forget that he signed an order to pause LNG exports.A report published by an arm of the Heritage Foundation claimed that the majority of official documents signed by Biden were allegedly an autopen signature.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"During the Biden administration, hundreds of billions of dollars were funneled towards pet green projects, while the American fossil fuels industry was punished, and there is no evidence that Biden ordered it, directed it, or was even aware it was happening in his name," Turner told Fox News Digital, adding that the American people "deserve to know" who was signing the executive orders "behind closed doors.""This autopen scandal is evidence that these green EOs are invalid, and the instigators should be thoroughly investigated by the DOJ for violating the trust of the American people and perpetuating a great fraud on the nation."Fox News Digital's Diana Stancy contributed to this report.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 56 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMTexas border sheriff says illegal crossings have seen dramatic decline as CA migrant center shuts downA Texas sheriff, whose county shares 54 miles of theU.S. southern border with Mexico, told Fox News Digital he has seen a "dramatic decline" in illegal migrant crossings since President Donald Trump took office, specifically, a sharp decrease in the last two weeks."Since President Trump took over, we have seen a continued decline in apprehensions," Terrell County Sheriff Thaddeus Cleveland told Fox. "This past two-week period, we should have been busier because it coincides with the full moon cycle, that's usually when we see more activity in our area."ALLEGED HUMAN SMUGGLERS ARRESTED IN TEXAS AFTER HIDING MIGRANTS INSIDE HOLLOWED HAY BALESThe U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)revealed earlier this month that April year-over-year apprehensions at the border were down 93%.
