EXCLUSIVE: TheDepartment ofHousing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Commonwealth of Virginia will announce Wednesday that the agency will be the first major cabinet department to relocate out of Washington, D.C. during President Donald Trumps term.Virginia Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin and HUD Secretary Scott Turner are set to christen the agencys new home at the already existing National Science Foundation (NSF) building in Alexandrias Carlyle-Eisenhower neighborhood, which is also home to a Wegman's grocery store, a movie theater and several shops and high-end restaurants.HUDs currentheadquarters on LEnfant Plaza is also on the Senate DOGE Caucus list of buildings they want to see sold off to save taxpayer funds. The curved X-shaped granite building, officially called the Robert C. Weaver Federal Building, is "underutilized," according to their rubric.Turner noted that the relocation will unlock hundreds of millions in taxpayer savings and address serious health concerns among staff at LEnfant.FOR SALE: DOGE MOVES TO SELL OFF ALMOST HALF A BILLION IN FEDERAL REAL ESTATE, RELOCATE CABINET AGENCY HQS"It is time to turn the page on the Weaver Building and relocate to a new headquarters that prioritizes the well-being of HUD employees and properly reflects the passion and excellence of our team," Turner told Fox News Digital."There are serious concerns with the current state of HUDs headquarters, including health hazards, leaks, and structural and maintenance failures. Many of these risks will needlessly and irresponsibly continue to absorb taxpayer dollars. Relocating is about more than just changing buildings; its about a mission-minded shift that we hope will inspire every employee."Turner, a former Washington Redskins cornerback, added that it also aligns with President Donald Trumps vision for a "New American Golden Age."Youngkin was equally enthused about HUDs move to the Old Dominion.HUD SECRETARY SCOTT TURNER LAYS OUT AGENCY WINS DURING FIRST 100 DAYS, SHARES PRIORITIES FOR NEXT 100"Virginia is a great place to be headquartered, and we are excited to welcome the Department of Housing and Urban Development and their over 2,700 headquarters-based employees to the best state in America to live, work, and raise a family," Youngkin told Fox News Digital.Amid plans by then-Elon Musk-led DOGE to relocate federal workers, Youngkin faced criticism for not speaking out more forcefully against the administration criticism that largely fizzled after Wednesdays announcement revealed the new headquarters would be just a few stops from downtown Washington on the Metros Yellow Line."Since the Trump administration started transforming the federal government to better serve the American people, our team has been focused on seizing the new opportunities that this presents for the commonwealth," Youngkin said. "Virginia is the proud home to many public and private sector headquarters, and we thank HUD leadership for trusting us and are committed to supporting your important national mission."Youngkin had taken slings and arrows over his support for such DOGE efforts, including from Virginia Senate Majority Leader Scott Surovell, D-Mount Vernon, who previously criticized his position on federal worker relocation."This is about people's jobs, their lives, their ability to support their families, and it's about the future of the Virginia economy," Surovell told VPM.The HUD relocation, however, falls just across Cameron Run Creek from Surovells district.Michael Peters, the commissioner of the General Services Administration, which manages federal real estate, praised the move to Virginia, saying it reflects his agencys commitment to fiscal responsibility and "mission effectiveness."Investments to-date in the Weaver building totaled $90 million over the past 15 years, including plaza, roof and faade repairs.HUD expects "significant demand" from the private sector for its old home located just east of the Smithsonian, south of the National Mall and within walking distance of the new Waterfront Wharf social area.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPMold and asbestos containment have plagued the building, which also has only about half of its elevators in working operation.The agency also noted there are about 1,000 more employees at HUD versus NSF which they calculated to effect a $51-per-square-foot savings on building usage and maintenance.Fox News Digital also reached out to Senate DOGE Chairwoman Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, for comment.Fox News Digital's Alec Schemmel contributed to this report.

A now-32-year-old Florida teacher is accused of having sex with a student in a classroom during lunchtime.Sarah Jacas is listed as a mathematics teacher at Corner Lake Middle School, which is a part of Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) in the Orlando metro area. She was arrested on Monday and faced a judge on Tuesday, local reports say.On June 10, a now-16-year-old boy told investigators he had sex with Jacas when he was 14, according to an arrest warrant affidavit viewed by Fox News Digital. The alleged sexual encounters were said to have taken place between December 2022 and April 2023."That individual is a 10-month employee and is not working at OCPS during the summer break," an OCPS spokesperson told Fox News Digital.NJ ELEMENTARY TEACHER ACCUSED OF SEXUALLY ABUSING STUDENT, HAVING HIS CHILD WHEN HE WAS 13The school's principal sent a message to the school community that said, "I can assure you I take all allegations very seriously and there is an ongoing investigation by law enforcement and the districts Office of Professional Standards.""Although I cannot discuss employee matters, please know this person will not be returning to campus pending the outcome of the investigation," the message continued.HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER CHARGED WITH SEXUALLY ASSAULTING FORMER TEEN STUDENT AT HER HOMEThe alleged victim told investigators he would eat lunch in Jacas' classroom "because he had issues fitting in and associating with the right crowd," the affidavit said.The two allegedly texted each other until the minor's parents found out.

Texas has become the latest state to cement a ban on land and property purchases by individuals or entities from adversarial nations.Republican Gov. Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 17 into law over the weekend, prohibiting countries identified as security threats in the intelligence community's 2025 Annual Threat Assessment, from acquiring "real property" in the state. The countries include China, Russia, Iran and North Korea, and the bill identified "real property" as agricultural land, commercial or industrial properties, residential properties and land used for mining or water use.Amid heightened global tensions, there has been an increased appetite for protecting foreign asset acquisitions in the United States. However, these efforts have been criticized by some for being overly broad, arbitrary and potentially discriminatory.ISRAEL'S DRONE STRIKES IN IRAN SHOW WHY US MUST HALT CHINA'S LAND GRAB: EXPERTSIn response to Abbott's signing of S.B. 17, the nonprofit Asian Americans Advancing Justice said it was "outraged" at the legislation that the group said "creates an overly broad net that places innocent foreign nationals at risk of racial profiling." A similar defense was made by Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs after she vetoed a bill seeking to stop Chinese land and property purchases in the state, noting the bill lacked "clear implementation criteria," which opened the door for "arbitrary enforcement." Hobbs, following backlash over her veto, subsequently described the bill as "a watered-down, weak-on-China bill," noting it allowed the communist country to purchase land near military bases for up to three years at a time, and followed up this month with her own version of the bill.Texas's bill exempts U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. Individuals legally residing in the United States wishing to purchase a primary residence are also exempt, as well as leaseholders of less than a year.The Texas attorney general is authorized through the new legislation to investigate potential violations of the new law, which would be a felony. The law will go into effect on September 1.DEM GOVERNOR RIPPED AS 'TOTAL DISGRACE' AFTER VETOING BILL LIMITING CHINESE LAND OWNERSHIP NEAR MILITARY BASES Proponents of measures like the one in Texas have cited efforts by countries like China to purchase land and property near major U.S. military bases. However, it is not just land either, it is assets too.China has a strong foothold in the U.S. drone market with many law enforcement agencies using Chinese-made DJI drones. The country has also faced scrutiny for building solar converters in the U.S. that can be tapped for espionage efforts, its increasing footprint in U.S. maritime ports and penetration of other critical infrastructure. Texas's bill follows a high-profile incident earlier this month when two Chinese nationals were arrested for attempting to smuggle a dangerous biological pathogen into the United States."Chinese companies purchasing American land, particularly near sensitive strategic and military sites, is not a coincidence. The CCP is blatantly attempting to base espionage efforts, and potentially worse, right in our backyard, and its up to states act accordingly," said Michael Lucci, the CEO and founder of State Armor Action, a conservative group with a mission to develop and enact state-level solutions to global security threats."Governor Abbott and the Texas legislature are right to ban foreign adversaries from purchasing land in their state. More and more states should follow their lead."RICKETTS, FETTERMAN TEAM UP FOR CRACKDOWN ON CHINA'S ATTEMPTS TO PURCHASE US FARMLANDPer the Committee of 100, which tracks state and federal bills in the United States that restrict property ownership by foreign entities, 25 states have passed bills that restrict foreign property ownership as of Monday. That is up from 22 states as recently as March, per the committee. Meanwhile, according to the committee's tracking, 15 bills pertaining to this issue are being considered at the federal level as well.On Monday, Republicans in Congress introduced a bill aimed at increasing oversight of foreign farmland purchases, which would add the U.S. Agriculture Secretary to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS). It would also compel the U.S. Department of Agriculture to report to CFIUS any purchase of domestic agricultural land by foreign adversaries who pose risks to national security.State-level bills aimed at increasing scrutiny of foreign land and asset acquisitions from adversaries appear imminent in New Hampshire and North Carolina, if their governors grant them approval.

A moderate House Democrat from New York is criticizing New York City's presumptive Democratic nominee for mayor, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani."Socialist Zohran Mamdani is too extreme to lead New York City. His entire campaign has been built on unachievable promises and higher taxes, which is the last thing New York needs," Rep. Laura Gillen, D-N.Y., said in a statement Wednesday."Beyond that, Mr. Mamdani has called to defund the police and has demonstrated a deeply disturbing pattern of unacceptable antisemitic comments, which stoke hate at a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing. He is the absolute wrong choice for New York."It's the first pushback from a Democratic official to Mamdani's stunning victory in the first round of New York City's ranked choice voting primary tally.REPUBLICANS USE MAMDANI BOMBSHELL VICTORY OVER CUOMO AS AMMUNITION TO BLAST DEMOCRATS AS EXTREMISTSMamdani far outpaced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the first round, winning 43.5% of the vote compared to Cuomo's 36.4%.Cuomo announced he would bow out of the primary but left it an open question whether he would join current New York City Mayor Eric Adams in running as an independent in the race.The former governor, whose own issues include accusations of sexual harassment that derailed his time in Albany, told Fox Business' Maria Bartiromo that he is not ruling out running again in November.CUOMO CONCEDES IN NYC DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY FOR MAYOR, CONGRATULATES AOC-ENDORSED MAMDANIGillen is a Long Island Democrat who unseated former Rep. Anthony D'Esposito, R-N.Y., in the 2024 elections.She's been known to break from her own party on issues like law enforcement and illegal immigration during her brief time in Congress so far.Gillen is also breaking from Democratic leaders in her criticism of Mamdani, a 33-year-old self-proclaimed democratic socialist whose platform includes city-owned and operated grocery stores.Both House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said in public statements on Wednesday that they had spoken to Mamdani since his victory."He ran an impressive campaign that connected with New Yorkers about affordability, fairness, & opportunity," Schumer said.Jeffries' statement said, "Assemblyman Mamdani ran a strong campaign that relentlessly focused on the economy and bringing down the high cost of living in New York City."Fox News Digital reached out to Mamdani's campaign for comment on Gillen's criticism.

The growing media platform Substack is solidly liberal, with 81 of the 100 top-selling titles in the U.S. Politics category being "left-leaning or progressive," according to researcher Kyle Tharp.Tharp, who pens the "Chaotic Era" newsletter, explained that Twitter used to be "the go-to arena for Democratic strategists, elected officials, and a new class of liberal take-makers," but Elon Musks takeover of the platform has pushed "liberal thought leaders" away. Lefty influencers have searched for a new home and some have migrated to Bluesky or Threads, but Tharp believes "a winner appears to have emerged" in recent months.BIG-NAME ANCHORS GOING INDEPENDENT, MAKING MONEY IN THE SUBSTACK ERA"Newsletter platform Substack is having a moment, fueled largely by an influx of liberal-leaning political and media figures eager to share their takes. Online pundits and anti-Trump resistance leaders like Heather Cox Richardson, Dan Pfeiffer, Simon Rosenberg, Norm Eisen, Steve Schmidt, and Mary Trump have built sizable audiences by weighing in on the news of the day," Tharp wrote."Democratic elected officialsincluding Gavin Newsom, Pete Buttigieg, and Chris Murphyhave launched their own publications on the platform, aiming to grow dedicated followings ahead of potential presidential bids," he continued."Perhaps most notably for the media industry, mainstream journalists who have left legacy outlets are finding new freedom to share their political opinions more openly on Substack. Among them: Taylor Lorenz, Mehdi Hasan, Tara Palmeri, Jennifer Rubin, Don Lemon, Jim Acosta, Terry Moran, and Dan Rather," Tharp added.TERRY MORAN STANDS BY SOCIAL MEDIA POST ABOUT TRUMP, MILLER, SAYS ABC FELT HE WAS 'BAD FOR BUSINESS'Moran, who was axed from ABC News this month after posting an anti-Trump rant on X, quickly joined Substack and used the platform to double down on his social media post that called Trump and White House aide Stephen Miller "world-class haters.""This, while very hot, is an observation, a description that is accurate and true," Moran said.He added later, "It was something that was in my heart and mind. And I would say I used very strong language, deliberately, because he, I felt [was] spitting venom and lies into our debate, degrading our public discourse, debasing it and using the power of the White House and what he's been given to grind us down in that bile. And, that's very disturbing to me."Tharp noted that "Theyre building a new echo chamber of left-leaning or anti-Trump commentary" one newsletter at a time. He included a graphic of the Top 50 "bestsellers" in the U.S. Politics category, which reveals the overwhelming majority of political content being consumed on Substack is of the liberal variety.The company appears to be embracing the liberal audience, as Tharp noted that anti-Trump figures Michael Cohen, Joe Walsh and Don Lemon are being used in the companys latest advertising campaign. Hes unsure if the platform will continue the momentum "or if its simply the latest stopover for Twitter refugees in search of an audience.""For now, Substack stands as a key town square for a certain segment of the left, reshaping how political narratives are distributed, debated, and consumed," Tharp wrote.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURESubstack does feature prominent non-liberals, such as The Free Press editor Bari Weiss, and it bills itself as "a new media app that connects you with the creators, ideas, and communities you care about most.""Here, you can discover world-class video, podcasts, and writing from a diverse set of creators who cover politics, pop culture, food, philosophy, tech, travel, and so much more," Substacks website states.Fox News Digital's Hanna Panreck and Kristine Parks contributed to this report.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is suing all 15 judges on the Maryland federal bench, arguing the court's policy of automatically pausing certain immigration cases that come before it is unlawful.Attorneys for the Trump administration argued to the very court they are suing that the policy, imposed through an order the court issued in May, is an "egregious example of judicial overreach.""A sense of frustration and a desire for greater convenience do not give Defendants license to flout the law," the attorneys wrote in a filing Tuesday. "Nor does their status within the judicial branch."The Maryland court's standing order requires clerks to immediately enter temporary administrative injunctions in cases brought by alleged illegal immigrants who are challenging their detention.US JUDGE BLASTS TRUMP LAWYERS FOR 11TH-HOUR TACTICS IN MS-13 DEPORTATION CASEThe automatic injunctions in these cases, known as habeas corpus cases, temporarily bar the DHS from deporting or changing the legal status of the immigrant in question for two business days.In its order, the court said it did this out of scheduling convenience to make sure the "status quo" is preserved when a case is filed. The order cited a higher volume than usual of cases involving detained immigrants who are attempting to prevent the government from keeping them detained or deporting them."The recent influx of habeas petitions concerning alien detainees purportedly subject to improper and imminent removal from the United States that have been filed after normal court hours and on weekends and holidays has created scheduling difficulties and resulted in hurried and frustrating hearings in that obtaining clear and concrete information about the location and status of the petitioners is elusive," the court order stated.The Trump administration also asked the court in a follow-up motion that all the judges-turned-defendants recuse themselves from the case and bring in an outside judge to take over or transfer the case to a different court district.JUDGE ON WARPATH PRESSES TRUMP DOJ ON ABREGO GARCIA DEPORTATION, ANSWERS LEAVE COURTROOM IN STUNNED SILENCEThe unusual lawsuit comes as President Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda encounters roadblocks involving individual immigrants using legal avenues afforded to them through U.S. immigration laws to raise challenges and appeals to their deportations.In Maryland, Judge Paula Xinis, who is now one of the named defendants in the new case, ordered the Trump administration to return to the United States a Salvadoran national named Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador in March before he was returned months later to face trafficking charges.The case became the first known instance of the Trump administration erroneously deporting an illegal immigrant before affording him legally-required due process.

Those people scanning the beach with metal detectors, hoping for a lucky find, might not be thrilled about what's next.

This approach ensures there are no emissions, so the robot does not contribute to greenhouse gases or other forms of pollution. Unlike traditional gas-powered beach-cleaning equipment such as tractors, BeBot is quiet and unobtrusive, which allows it to work at any time without disturbing wildlife or beach visitors. Its cleaning capacity is impressive. BeBot can cover up to 32,200 square feet of beach in a single hour, which is 20 to 30 times more effective than manual trash collection. The robot can remove up to 200 pounds of debris in one session, targeting items like plastic bottles, cigarette butts, food packaging, and cotton buds. BeBot's design allows it to dig up to about four inches into the sand, and its sifting grids, which measure roughly half an inch by half an inch, capture even the smallest pieces of plastic and trash that would be difficult for people to collect by hand.Remote operation is another standout feature. BeBot can be controlled from up to 950 feet away, giving operators the flexibility to clean large or crowded beaches safely. Its unique track system distributes pressure evenly across the sand, which helps prevent beach erosion and protects sensitive habitats such as turtle nesting sites. The robot's battery can last up to three hours on a full charge, and some models can run for as long as eight hours.AUTONOMOUS TRASH-GOBBLING ROBO BOAT WAGES WAR ON WATERWAY WASTEBeBot is not limited to trash collection. Its modular design supports a variety of attachments, allowing it to rake seaweed and algae, level sand, and carry heavy loads such as beach chairs, umbrellas, or even jet skis. With the sifter removed, BeBot can transport up to 900 pounds, making it a valuable tool for both public and private beaches, nature reserves, golf courses, and other sandy environments.STOP SORTING YOUR GARBAGE WITH THIS NEW TECHNOLOGYBeBot has already demonstrated its effectiveness in places like Lake Tahoe, where Eco-Clean Solutions deployed it to clean over one million square feet of shoreline across twenty beaches. Videos of BeBot in action show the robot digging up all kinds of debris, including flip-flops and cigarette filters. The robot has also been used on beaches in Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, Florida, and North Carolina. In each location, BeBot has received praise for its ability to remove hard-to-spot debris and for raising public awareness about the dangers of microplastics.GET FOX BUSINESS ON THE GO BY CLICKING HERETHIS AI ROBOT GARBAGE PICKER CAN SORT OVER 500 TYPES OF TRASH IN SECONDSBeBot is making a difference by protecting wildlife and ecosystems. Plastic pollution is not just unsightly; it is deadly for marine life. Millions of tons of plastic enter the oceans each year, harming hundreds of species, including nearly half of all marine animals. BeBot's gentle cleaning process reduces these threats without disturbing sensitive habitats or compressing turtle eggs. Cleaner beaches lead to healthier ecosystems and better experiences for visitors. Because BeBot operates quietly and efficiently, it is ideal for popular tourist destinations where traditional machinery would be disruptive or damaging. The robot also sparks important conversations about pollution and inspires communities to take action, complementing human-led cleanups by targeting the small plastics that often go unnoticed.SUBSCRIBE TO KURTS YOUTUBE CHANNEL FOR QUICK VIDEO TIPS ON HOW TO WORK ALL OF YOUR TECH DEVICESThis little robot is making a big difference, showing us that you do not need massive machines to tackle massive problems.

Veteran NFL receiver Diontae Johnson suited up for three different teams last season, including a brief and seemingly unharmonious stint with theBaltimore Ravens that saw the wideout get suspended and waived after just four games with the team.Johnson, who signed with theCleveland Browns during the offseason, broke his silence this month on what ultimately led to that suspension.During an appearance on the"Sport and Suits" podcast, Johnson revealed it was the cold weather during the Ravens Week 13 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles that prompted him to refuse to go back into the game after wide receiver Rashod Bateman went down with an injury in the third quarter.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"It was cold. So, I'm on the sideline, just standing there, just going to the heater back and forth just waiting to hear my name called. So, end of third going into the fourth, they're like, 'Tae, we need you.' I'm like, 'Nah.' To me, I'm thinking, 'I don't think it's a good idea for me,' because I was thinking about, like, my legs I don't want to go out there and put bad stuff on film."It's not like I didn't want to go in the game, but you've got to think, like, leading up to this point, I'd been through so much."Johnson, who is no stranger to cold-weather games after five seasons with thePittsburgh Steelers, explained that it was more than just the frigid temps that kept him out of the game.RAVENS WAIVE PRO BOWL RECEIVER DIONTAE JOHNSON AFTER DRAMA-FILLED TENURE"I'd checked out mentally. I was like, 'Whatever happens, happens.' I was just rolling with the punches at that time. So, I told them I wasn't going in. I was like, 'I understand what you're saying, but I'm not going to go in.' So, I just sat on the bench, and that's when they suspended me."Johnson was suspended from the Ravens' Week 14 win over the New York Giants and was subsequently excused from all team activities the following week. He was then waived by the Ravens. He explained that he requested that he be released."I already knew if I went back, I was going to be in the doghouse even more," he said. "So, I just asked to get released, and I got picked up by Houston."Johnson was traded to theCarolina Panthers in March 2024 and then was sent to Baltimore midseason. After being released by the Ravens, he signed with the Houston Texans where he appeared in one game before being waived.He signed a one-year deal with the Browns this offseason where he joins a receiving room that doesnt have many viable options other than Jerry Jeudy.As for the weather in Cleveland, Johnson already knows whats in store for him."Im not even trying to think about that."The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
