The mayor of Chicago thinks its an ill-conceived mission, thats madness."CHICAGO MAYOR CALLS ICE RAIDS TERRORISM, SAYS TRUMPS AMERICA APPEARS AS 'IF THE CONFEDERACY WON'Both Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson have spoken out against Trumps immigration enforcement efforts."We do know ICE is coming once again in force to cities across the country, so we expect to see them in Chicago,"Pritzkersaid Thursday. "I dont know exactly how big the force will be, but I do know he has used other law enforcement along with ICE to carry out his ill-conceived mission to go after people who frankly are paying taxes, and theyre law-abiding, and theyve been here for many, many years."Mayor Johnson said Monday that Trump should not deploy federal troops to enforce federal immigration priorities."We will continue to resist,"he said. "Whether its in the courts, in the streets, or through public policy, were going to stand up for working people."CHICAGO MAYOR FIRES BACK AT BORDER CZARS REPREHENSIBLE THREATS TO PROSECUTE HIM OVER ICE RAIDSThe City of Chicago has allowedin over 51,000 illegal immigrants from the southern border since August 31, 2022.Speaker Johnson addressed Trumps "big, beautiful bill" a measure to extend the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and provide new funding for the border and defense which passed the House on May 22 and is now in the Senate."We're working on the one big beautiful bill to allow them the resources that are desperately needed," he said."I mean, they are doing the job. The border is secured. We are locked down. We're not allowing illegals into the country anymore. But the enforcement and removal of the dangerous people who got here is an essential task for our ICE agents and officers to take care of. They need more personnel, they need more facilities. We're here to see it," the Speaker added.He also said that the legislation will give annual $10,000 bonusesover the next four years to ICE and Border Patrol agents "for the people on the front lines," echoing a statement from the White House.

Travis Kelce entered this offseason surrounded by uncertainty. The 35-year-old faced questions about whether the Kansas City Chiefs loss to the Philadelphia Eagles would be the final time he laced up his NFL cleats.Kelce ultimately decided to continue playing the game he loves."I'm coming back for sure. Gonna try to get into the best shape I've been this offseason and get back to the mountaintop," Kelce wrote in a text message to Pat McAfee that the ESPN host read during his show. "Got a real bad taste in my mouth with how I played in that last game and with how I got the guys ready for battle. I can't go out like that!!!!"CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThis week, Kelce indicated that while he perhaps did briefly contemplate stepping away, he never actually strongly considered retiring."I love football. I don't think I really thought about it that much," Kelce told the assembled media on Wednesday at the Chiefs minicamp. "... I love coming in to work every single day. It wasn't a very tough one for me. I know I'm getting older, but at the same time, I still feel like I've got a lot I can prove in this league. With that being said, it really wasn't that hard of a decision for me."TAYLOR SWIFT, TRAVIS KELCE TAKE IN PANTHERS-OILERS STANLEY CUP FINALKelce finished the Super Bowl loss with four receptions for 39 yards.

He ended the regular season with 823 yards.Kelce said he will worry about his playing future after the 2025 season. In the meantime, he is staying focused on trying to help the Chiefs be the last team standing next February."I got one year on this contract, I know that, and we'll try and figure out something for next year," Kelce said. "The Chiefs organization knows how much I love them. I can't see myself ever playing anywhere else. We'll deal with that down the road when the time is right, but right now I'm focused on winning a championship this year."Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

We can talk about Oct. 7, where 45 Americans were killed. And they abducted, you know, six or seven more and executed them before Israel rescued them."This has been going on since 1979, and it is about to become a safer place, a non-nuclear Iran. And without having the money to be able to do what they have been doing, the world is going to be a safer place," he added."If the Middle East gets safer and stronger, look at what dynamic country Israel is. Look at all the unicorns that are there. Look at all the high tech and development. Look at all the wealth. If you began to spread that to some of these other Middle Eastern countries, who are they going to partner with? The United States, Russia, China? Its going to be the U.S. becauseDonald Trump has led the way to create peace and prosperity for everybody in the region."AUBURN'S BRUCE PEARL EXPLAINS WHY HE SPEAKS OUT IN SUPPORT OF ISRAELThe president was noncommittal on the possibility of military intervention when speaking to reporters outside the White House Wednesday, saying that military strikes targeting Iran's nuclear siteshave not been ruled out entirely."Yes, I may do it. I may not do it. I mean, nobody knows what I'm going to do. I can tell you this, that Iran's got a lot of trouble, and they want to negotiate," Trump said. "And I said, 'Why didn't you negotiate with me before all this death and destruction? Why didn't you go?' I said to people, 'Why didn't you negotiate with me two weeks ago? You could have done fine. You would have had a country.' It's very sad to watch this."Trump has pushed Iran to sign a nuclear agreement, but talks between the two scheduled for Sunday were called off after Iran withdrew days earlier. While the Trump administration weighs its options, Iran has said the U.S. entering the conflict would mean an "all-out war."Fox News Digitals Diana Stancy and Connor McGahan contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The New York Times accused Tesla CEO Elon Musk of "lashing out" against them on Tuesday.In May, the New York Times published a report citing "private messages" sent to them and "interviews with more than a dozen people who have known or worked with him" that alleged Musks drug use was "more intense" than publicly known as he campaigned with then-candidate Donald Trump in 2024."Mr. Musks drug consumption went well beyond occasional use," the NYT reported. "He told people he was taking so much ketamine, a powerful anesthetic, that it was affecting his bladder, a known effect of chronic use. He took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms. And he traveled with a daily medication box that held about 20 pills, including ones with the markings of the stimulant Adderall, according to a photo of the box and people who have seen it."NY TIMES COLUMNIST COMPARES ELON MUSK TO HISTORYS WORST MURDERERS OVER USAID CUTSMusk repeatedly denounced the article and called out the Times by posting the results of a recent drug test on his X account Tuesday.The paper's communications team responded to the results, saying that Musk was "continuing to lash out" against them and stood by the story."Elon Musk is continuing to lash out because he doesn't like our reporting. Nothing that he's said or presented since our article about his drug use during the presidential campaign was published contradicts what we uncovered. We stand by our journalism," the NY Times Communications account wrote.The NYT gave the same response after Musk challenged the New York Times and Wall Street Journal to release the results of their own drug tests."Great idea. I hereby challenge the NYT and WSJ to take drug tests and publish the results! They wont, because those hypocrites are guilty as sin," Musk wrote.The back-and-forth between the New York Times and Musk has been ongoing since the article was published on May 30.One day after the story was published, Musk wrote on X that the NYT was "lying their a-- off" and insisted that he had not taken ketamine in years.The NY Times Communications account pushed back on Musk at the time, similarly accusing Musk of "lashing out" but with "no evidence."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE"Kirsten Grind and Megan Twohey's thoroughly sourced report provides an important and fair look into Musk's drug use and family conflicts. They interviewed a dozen people who have known or worked with him, and saw private text messages, legal documents and photographic evidence," the NY Times Communications account wrote. "Elon Musk is just lashing out because he doesn't like our article.
