    Thousands of Nintendo Switch 2 consoles stolen in $1.4M cargo heist
    Deputies in Colorado are searching for the people responsible for stealing $1.4 million worth of Nintendo Switch 2 consoles just days after the new video gaming system was released worldwide.The heist was reported at a truck stop the morning of June 8, Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office said on X."A semi-truck driver reported that he had just discovered his trailer had been broken into during a pre-trip inspection, and several pallets of the newly released Nintendo Switch 2 game consoles were stolen - 2,810 of them to be exact," the post said.Each Nintendo console is valued at $499, the sheriff's office said.THE NINTENDO SWITCH 2 IS OUT, HERE'S WHERE TO GET ONE"The driver told deputies he was en route to a @gamestop store in Grapevine, Texas, from @NintendoAmerica in Redmond, Washington," the sheriff's office added. The driver told investigators "he did not know what was in the trailer, only that it was games or toys."Deputies are unsure if the theft occurred in the town of Bennett or someplace else the truck stopped.YOUTUBER SPENDS 61 DAYS IN LINE TO PURCHASE NINTENDO SWITCH 2If the suspects are found, they could face charges of felony theft valued at $1 million or more and criminal mischief.Anyone with information is asked to call the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office tipline at 720-874-8477 and can remain anonymous, if they choose.Switch 2 pre-orders for major retailers opened on April 24, after delays attributed to Nintendo examining the potential impact of tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.The price of the base Switch 2 along with the newest "Mario Kart World" bundle costs $499 making it the most expensive Nintendo console to date. Nintendo also warned buyers that Switch 2 accessories will experience "price adjustments" due to "changes in market conditions," per the official statement.

    Universities abandon Jewish students amid dangerous tide of social media disinformation
    Disinformation isnt just an online nuisance anymore - its a direct threat to truth, democracy, and safety on American University campuses.Todays students get most of their news from TikTok, Instagram, and other social media platforms. Spaces where accuracy often takes a backseat to clicks and engagement. Users are often rewarded the more provocative they are.Making matters worse, major platforms like Meta and X (formerly Twitter) are rolling back their fact-checking and content moderation policies. Since January 2025, Meta has scrapped its fact-checking system in favor of so-called "community framing." Similar to moves already seen on X.JEWISH STUDENT SETTLES RELIGIOUS DISCRIMINATION SUIT AGAINST COLUMBIAAccording to the Institute for National Security Studies, nearly 60% of people rely on social media for their information, and that number is even higher among students. Resulting in a generation increasingly unable to separate fact from fiction.And thats no accident.Bad actors - from hostile foreign governments to radical social activists - are flooding these platforms with propaganda, conspiracy theories, and hate. Nowhere is this more visible than in the spike of antisemitic disinformation circulating online and at universities.The consequences are deeply troubling: an increasing number of Jewish students feel unsafe on campus, while many others struggle with confusion and lack the tools to navigate an overwhelming flood of false information.Universities should be a beacon of open debate, but this is being twisted into a toxic environment where Jewish students are harassed, vilified, and made to feel unsafe.My own research demonstrated that more than half of students admit to believing something later proven false. Many could not tell the difference between a real news story and a fake one.More than half struggled to distinguish between legitimate news and deliberately fabricated stories when presented with fake social media posts during workshops. Leading to a staggering 87% to 94% of students across different groups expressing strong support for mandatory training to help them recognize and combat disinformation.In three separate U.K. surveys, students reported a dramatic surge in antisemitic disinformation following the October 7th attacks - at rates of 88%, 84%, and 72%, respectively. This problem does not stop at U.K. institutions. Similar scenes have erupted on U.S. campuses.SIGN UP FOR ANTISEMITISM EXPOSED NEWSLETTERThats a wake-up call.Universities cant afford to ignore this crisis any longer. While they cant control TikTok or Meta, they can ensure their own house is in order. It starts with preparing students with media literacy and disinformation. Not another lecture - real, practical courses taught by experts in tech, journalism, and cybersecurity.These programs should be non-negotiable. Because as todays students become tomorrows professors this wont be enough. Universities will also need clear rules against knowingly spreading lies, especially when those lies are used to spread hate or incite hostility - and these rules should apply to Professors too.This isnt about stifling debate - its about protecting students and upholding basic standards of truth.The United States is on the front line of this crisis. American universities, once champions of rigorous debate and intellectual freedom, are now grappling with a tidal wave of disinformation that is undermining both education and student safety. Antisemitic conspiracy theories, fake videos, and distorted narratives are spreading like wildfire across campuses, often with little to no pushback from administrators.Jewish students report being harassed, doxxed, and isolated for speaking out. In some cases, theyre targeted by peers who have consumed so much disinformation online including narratives that paint Jewish people as global conspirators.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONThese arent just fringe opinions anymore; they're becoming normalized in lecture halls and student unions.The response from many institutions has been tepid at best. Some university leaders hide behind vague commitments to free expression while refusing to confront the coordinated spread of disinformation.This isnt a free speech issue. Its a failure of leadership.Americas higher education system must wake up to the reality that unchecked disinformation is not just corrosive; its dangerous and fragmenting cohesion on campus.Too many schools are failing to respond when Jewish students are targeted by disinformation-fueled hate. My research found in some cases; students rate their universitys response to antisemitic incidents as low as 1.7 out of 5. Thats shameful.The consequences wont stop at campus gates. Disinformation tears the fabric of democracy. It fuels division, extremism, and violence. And once it takes root in our education system, its much harder to undo.

    Descendants of Battle of Bunker Hill fighters tell about unsung family heroes
    One of the turning points during the Revolutionary War was the Battle of Bunker Hill 250 years ago.While it was a British victory, the confidence and morale of the colonial militia were greatly boosted.The militia were not trained soldiers, but rather ordinary men who were doctors, tradesmen, even farmers. (See the video at the top of this article.) TWO REVOLUTIONARY WAR LETTERS ARE REUNITED AT FORT TICONDEROGA AFTER 250 YEARS APARTTimothy Riordan, Ph.D., historian and vice president of the Charlestown Historical Society in Massachusetts, said the average age of the men fighting the British Army was 27 years old.With Riordan's research, he founded the "Brothers of the Battle" program.It helps to locate and find descendants of militiamen who fought for America's independence, he said."Bunker Hill was thought of as the most important battle because its where we proved we could fight the British," Riordan told Fox News.WHO WERE THE SIGNERS OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE?Dozens of descendants gathered for events around the 250th anniversary. One of them was a New Hampshire representative of Rockingham 13 in Derry, New Hampshire.State Rep. Steve Pearson (R) is a descendant of Lt. John Wheeler, who fought under Doolittle's regiment at the Battle of Bunker Hill.Pearson said the Battle of Bunker Hill "really set the tone in the colonies, set the tone in media propaganda [It] made people realize, 'There's no going back now.'"Another descendant eager to tell the story of a long-admired family member is Matt Woodfin.He said he's proud to be the descendant of two men who fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill.One is Michael Dalton, expected to have been a fife during the battle."He was one that was blowing the flute-type whistle to kind of direct troops, left, right, when to eat, when to march," Woodfin told Fox News.Just before the Battle of Bunker Hill, 20,000 men from the area decided this was the time to stand up to the British.One of those men was Woodfin's eighth great-uncle, Henry Dearborn."He heard about Concord and Lexington and just put down whatever he was doing and just started walking south."Dearborn was a doctor who became a captain, said Woodfin."Before a formal army, before anything like that, you basically earned your rank by the number of folks you were able to recruit. He came down with 40, 50, 60 men and showed up here as a captain," said Woodfin.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERDearborn later served under President Thomas Jefferson as secretary of war in 1801.Woodfin said Jefferson presented an ornate sword to Dearborn during a ceremony. It has been taken care of by the Woodfin family for generations.Many more trekked to Charlestown, Massachusetts, including Josiah Puffer.Sheila Puffer, a descendant of his, said "he lost a thumb [due to] the explosion of a gun in his hands and was disqualified from military service."She found a book written by a family member over 100 years ago, telling many stories of Josiah Puffer over the years. He fought in the French and Indian War, then at Bunker Hill."When he enlisted, it is said that he passed the examination by wearing gloves of which the thumb of one was filled with wood," she said.For more Lifestyle articles, visitfoxnews.com/lifestyleWhile the British won the battle at Bunker Hill the colonial militia got the confidence boost."They only lost because they ran out of ammunition," said Riordan.The British Army lost twice as many casualties than the American patriots.But Riordan said that proves an undisciplined and untrained militia could stand against the British."Its not that they stood there and fought its because they stood there and fought for what they believed in," said Riordan.

    DAVID MARCUS: Trumps base trusts him to play strong hand in Iran
    Of all the ways to try to influence President Donald Trump, the absolute worst is to threaten him. And yet, there is a segment of MAGA world podcasters and influencers insisting that if the commander-in-chief takes direct action against Iran, it will divide and crush Trumps base.Dont count on it.The argument from podcast land is that Trump ran on a promise of no new wars and that any direct American action against Iran would betray that promise and plunge America into another forever war in the Middle East.ISRAEL-IRAN WAR DIVIDES DEMOCRATS, BUT TRUMP'S DIPLOMACY ALSO SPLITTING REPUBLICANSLets slow down a bit. In his first term, Trump killed Quasim Soliemani, the top Iranian general, to howls from the left, and some of these same right-wing podcasters, that it would start World War III. It didnt. They were wrong, Trump was right.Here we are again, the president faced with a choice. He can use U.S. bunker bombs to deal the lethal blow to Irans nuclear program, or he can take the Joe Biden route, and sheepishly back off his demand for unconditional surrender, and let Iran continue its march to nukes.Depending on the polling, about 80% of Republicans think that a nuclear Iran poses a critical threat to the United States. And while voters are more split on direct U.S. action, Trump is laser-focused on stopping Tehrans bomb.Trump excels at solving problems everyone else says are impossible. Just look at the southern border, sealed tight as a Ziploc bag, even though everyone swore only Congress could do that.Likewise, in Iran, Trump doesnt want to hear a rehashing of the 8 million reasons why nobody can stop their nuclear program. He wants to hear how to stop it, and if those urging restraint cant tell him how, hes going to listen to those who can.This goes back to the farcical threat that Trump is going to lose his base if he bombs Iran, that the guy in an Ohio diner is going to side with the podcasters over the president he voted for. How did that work out for Elon Musk?The analogy is an apt one, because Musks threats and criticisms over the Big Beautiful Bill potentially raising the debt had real resonance among GOP voters, and yet, they chose Trump over a chastened richest man in the world. They support Trumps overarching economic goals more than they dislike the debt.Same thing in Iran. Is there skepticism about using direct American military might? Of course. This aint a pickup game of shirts and skins. But do they trust Trump overall to stop Iran from getting nukes? Absolutely.Talk of regime change and threats to kill Irans supreme leader understandably make Americans jittery 25 years after the launch of the disastrous war in Iraq, but Trump isnt talking about invading with boots on the ground, and his base knows this.What the podcasters dont seem to understand is that the only way to influence Trump is to influence his voters. He doesnt care how many followers an influencer has on social media, half of which could be bots from foreign information operations, anyway.Actually, one has to wonder if our geo-political foes, whose bot farms seek to manipulate social media platforms in America and sow discord, are disappointed by their return on investment.On X, it seems like to bomb or not to bomb is a divide ripping our country apart. In real life, it simply isnt.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONThe final thing that Trump understands and that his base trusts, is that the United States was losing the international status quo under his predecessors, on global trade, on the border, on China policy, and yes, in the Middle East. In all of these cases, he is determined to reverse that trend.There is nothing wrong or unpatriotic about arguing that direct U.S. action against Iran would be a mistake, and Trump no doubt welcomes lively debate. But as Vice President JD Vance, no chickenhawk, pointed out Tuesday, this is Trumps decision to make.Trump promised that Iran would never obtain a nuke, and he has a habit of keeping his campaign promises, even when taking slings and arrows from noisy voices on his own side.There isnt a podcast in the world that can keep Trump from fulfilling this promise as he sees fit, and his base, the real power behind the administration, expects nothing less.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM DAVID MARCUS

    Xander Schauffele defends 'fair' US Open conditions at Oakmont: 'Everyone had to play the same course'
    Plenty of golfers had their fair share of displeasure at this past weekend's U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania.Shane Lowry outwardly proclaimed, "f--- this place" after missing a putt, and on Sunday, despite J.J. Spaun's late charge to take home his first major, only three people finished under par in the final round.One of those three players was Xander Schauffele, whose +6 overall was tied for 12th in the tournament. The conditions were brutal from the jump, but the two-time major champ thought the course was "very fair."CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Everyone had to play the same course," Schauffele told Fox News Digital in a recent interview.Schauffele admitted there were "weird breaks" that occurred throughout the weekend when golfers toed the line with danger. However, "You dont have to hit it in the bunkers or the rough you can just hit it in the fairways.""I thought the course was fair. I thought it was more playable because it rained a little, and the fairways and greens were more forgiving," he added. "You had to golf extremely well, which is what youre supposed to do to win a U.S. Open. You saw J.J. take control out of that rain delay, which is what youre supposed to do to win and be a major champ there."Schauffele will be one of several major champs at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut, this weekend for the Travelers Championship, where the last seven winning scores have been -22, -23, -19, -13, -19, -17, and -17, a polar opposite to U.S. Open scores.The 2024 PGA and Open champion won the Travelers in 2022, and while everybody wants to shoot lower, Schauffele said having both types of golf is a good balance.TIGER WOODS CONGRATULATES NEW PGA TOUR CEO AS JAY MONAHAN ANNOUNCES DEPARTURE"A mixture of both is nice. It's healthy. Ive never shied away from the U.S. Open challenge, and Ive never shied away from -25 winning a tournament," Schauffele said. "If you had to play Oakmont in U.S. Open conditions every week for 20 weeks, youd wear yourself out, and vice versa. If you had to play a course where 25-under is winning for 20 weeks, youd also wear yourself out. I think having a split and a little variety is nice for us."This year's Travelers has exactly what Schauffele wants as he aims to catch fire ahead of The Open, the FedEx Cup, and the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in what's been a "weird" season for him."They definitely have done some things to make TPC River Highlands more difficult," Schauffele said. "Used to be lower rough, fairways used to be wider, they changed a couple holes to make it more difficult and less scoring-friendly Youre rewarded for really good shots, but theres water on a lot of holes, theres deep rough on some short-sided pins, a guy next to you can be shooting low, but you can be at even par not feeling great. I wouldnt call it a layup you still have to be playing really good golf."However, it will be a stark difference from what went down in western Pennsylvania."Itll be weird to be able to make seven or eight birdies in a round versus at Oakmont."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

    The Supreme Court did the right thing. I know because I was part of a horrifying gender transition
    The issues raised at the U.S. Supreme Court inUnited States of America v. Skrmetti are pretty academic to most Americans. The court concluded on June 18 that states can protect children from dangerous gender-transition procedures. Most people dont have to know more than they want to about what is taking place in many hospitals in America. But its different for me and for thousands of other people who have been defrauded by negligent doctors and harmful policies. I was part of the experiment.The "procedures" the lawyers debated involve doctor-prescribed, counselor-encouraged drugs and surgeries that have been described as harmful, unnecessary, and high-risk by research and rigorously reviewed studies.SCOTUS RULES ON STATE BAN ON GENDER TRANSITION 'TREATMENTS' FOR MINORS IN LANDMARK CASEI wasnt informed of all the risks involved when I was told to take these drugs. I wasnt given ethical or evidence-based treatment. I was given life-altering drugs and surgeries based on pseudoscience and the singular fact that I hated myself.I believed the lies my doctors told me because I was vulnerable from abuse and trauma. By the time I was 14, Id been raped, became pregnant, and suffered a miscarriage. By 16, I had been diagnosed with anorexia, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder and was hospitalized for depression and self-harm. I tried to kill myself several times. A medical resident talked with me once and suddenly decided, despite all my other documented physical and mental health struggles, that my real trouble was a "gender-identity crisis."None of my delusional beliefs were questioned, despite a history of severe mental illness and impairment that impacted my ability to perceive reality. Even though I was in treatment for a body-dysphoric disorder, I was simultaneously told to pursue gender-transition procedures for believing that I was a boy.MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE PUSHES BILL TO PUNISH THOSE WHO PERFORM GENDER TRANSITION MEASURES ON MINORSAt the beginning, these efforts were hidden from my parents. When they finally did find out, healthcare providers bullied them into giving consent with lies that had no basis in reality. They said that the trauma responses I was describing were "gender dysphoria," greenlighting me for testosterone at age 17. At 18, I underwent a double mastectomy. It all happened so fast, but it took my mind years to become well enough for me to even realize what damage had been done.I still live with that damage and the life-altering consequences of the unnecessary drugs and surgery I was given. The testosterone changed me not only my appearance, but the very structure of my body. My endocrine system doesnt function without external hormones now. And I cant regulate my hormones on my own. I wont ever be able to nurse my own children because they removed my healthy breasts.So, its hard for me and so many like me who also have been lied to to understand why the Biden administrationand groups like the American Civil Liberties Union thought these drugs and surgeries were a magic bullet to cure distress especially when growing international evidence is revealing that these drugs and surgeries dont help, and countries across Europe areabandoningand banning these practices.STATES SUPPORT PARENTS IN LEGAL CASE OVER SCHOOLS SECRET GENDER TRANSITION OF CHILDRespected scientistssaythat these procedures do great harm. My body says so, too. Thankfully, more than half of our 50 states have nowpassed lawsto prevent the medical profession from promoting these dangerous procedures. And in October 2024, anational pollfound that a majority of Americans support a federal law protecting children from being experimented on with puberty blockers and unnecessary, body-altering surgeries.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONYet activists and the previous administration persisted in trying to stop states from ensuring children receive healthcare rooted in biological reality and truth. States likeAlabama,Idaho, and nowTennessee in theSkrmetticase that the Supreme Court just decided were all forced to defend their right to regulate healthcare providers and protect children.I was one of those children. I will suffer for the rest of my life for believing, in my confusion, the people who perpetuated these cruel lies.But what happened to me and so many others who are detransitioning is a preventable tragedy. I certainly dont like reliving all that Ive been through, recounting for courts, journalists, and audiences what terrible things these transition procedures inflicted on me.But the people who I thought were coming to save me ended up drugging me and removing my healthy breasts. I dont want that to happen to any other child. I dont want anyone to experience the pain I face now, every day. I want people to have the truth, not lies. I want everyone to live full and flourishing lives.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE BY PRISHA MOSLEY

    Beloved American candy deemed 'unsafe to eat' in United Kingdom due to hidden chemicals
    One of America's favorite candies has been shunned by authorities in the United Kingdom, who claim it is "unsafe to eat."The U.K.'s Food Standards Agency (FSA) announced a stern advisory against Jolly Rancher candies on June 11.The alert applies to all Jolly Rancher hard candies, as well as Jolly Rancher Misfits, Jolly Rancher Fruity 2 in 1s and Jolly Rancher Berry Gummies.'NOT RECOMMENDED FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION' LABEL MAY BE REQUIRED ON CHIPS, CANDIES IN TEXASThe reason, the FSA claims, is that the candies contain "Mineral Oil Aromatic Hydrocarbons (MOAH) and Mineral Oil Saturated Hydrocarbons (MOSH)."The agency said the hydrocarbons make the candies "unsafe to eat and not compliant with U.K. laws."The FSA has instructed British consumers not to buy or eat the products.FOOD DYES TO BE PHASED OUT BY TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IN LATEST ROUND OF BANS"If you've eaten these products, there should be no immediate cause for concern, as food safety risk is low, but don't eat any more," the agency said."These products contain mineral oil, which isn't allowed in food in the U.K. and may pose a food safety risk if consumed regularly over a sustained period of time."Although the alert did not mention the word "ban," the FSA said that it had "requested enforcing authorities in the U.K. to take action to remove products, to protect consumers."Jolly Ranchers were first introduced to the U.S. candy market in 1949. They come in a variety of flavors, including watermelon, cherry, blue raspberry, grape and green apple.For more Lifestyle articles, visit foxnews.com/lifestyleThe candies were acquired by the Hershey Company in 1996.Todd Scott, a spokesperson for the Hershey Company, headquartered in Pennsylvania, told Fox News Digital this week that the "safety and quality" of Jolly Rancher candies is the company's "first priority, and consumers can rest assured that our products are safe to enjoy."Scott went on, "As a global brand with a wide audience, we also recognize our products can sometimes be purchased in markets other than those for which they were originally produced. In such cases, we cannot guarantee that the products meet the regulatory requirements of the end market, which may differ from those of the U.S."Mineral oil hydrocarbons enter food "through environmental contamination, use of lubricants for machinery, release agents, processing aids, food or feed additives and migration from food contact materials," according to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA).CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERThe negative health impacts of mineral oil hydrocarbons can vary widely, according to the European agency."MOAH may act as genotoxic carcinogens (they can damage DNA, the genetic material of cells, and may cause cancer), while some MOSH are known to accumulate in the liver and lymphoid system," the EFSA's website states.The FDA also regulates the presence of hydrocarbons. According to the Code of Federal Regulations, mineral oil "may be safely used as a component of nonfood articles intended for use in contact with food," if it meets certain rules.Scott told Fox News Digital that the Hershey Company is "continuing to work closely with the FSA in the United Kingdom on these important issues" and that it looks forward to "bringing Jolly Rancher products back to established retailers soon."

    'Jewish Matchmaking' star living in Israel has hope amid conflicts with Hamas, Iran
    Star of the hit Netflix show "Jewish Matchmaking," Cindy Seni isnt single anymore, but still talks to renowned matchmaker Aleeza Ben Shalom and lives in Israel.From serving in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) during COVID to living in Jerusalem through Oct. 7 and now the launch of Operation Rising Lion, Seni has seen a slew of historic events firsthand."Its been a whirlwind," Seni told Fox News Digital. "It feels like it's a never-ending wound that we just keep trying to patch up and then it gets reopened again and it's very, very difficult."CAITLYN JENNER, STUCK IN ISRAEL AFTER IRAN STRIKE, POSTS PICTURES OF CHAOS AND SHELTERSince the operation in Iran began, Israel has directed civilians to stay in bomb shelters or protected spaces for longer periods of time. Seni says it can be "anxiety-inducing" as one never knows how long the shelter-in-place order will last."It's a question sometimes of an entire night or a few hours," she said. "And thank God I have a safe room in my apartment, but a lot of people don't, so they have to run and literally go out on the street at night in the middle with their kids and that's very stressful."While she said that life in Israel right now is anxiety-inducing and scary, Seni also spoke about the resilience of the Israeli people, something she admires about the culture. Seni told Fox News Digital that people in Israel are living their lives not because they arent afraid or stressed, but rather in spite of that because they dont have a choice. As Seni said, "they cant stop."One resilient Israeli who has had a major impact on Senis life amid the chaos of war and conflict is her husband, Eldad Cohen."Hes a very, very resilient Israeli. He's been through a lot of things," she said. "He was injured as well in the army, and he has his own kind of, you grew up here during the Second Intifada in Jerusalem, and so he has this own resilience that really grounds me."MIKE JOHNSON CALLS OFF ISRAEL TRIP AMID IRAN CONFLICTSenis other love is spreading joy online through her Instagram account, "Israel with Cindy," where she posts skits, photos and personal stories."So, Israel with Cindy was really created as a way to spread joy within the community the Jewish community and it kind of really grew from there," Seni said.
