WWW.FOXNEWS.COMEx-NBC News host Chuck Todd laments Democratic Party a 'collection of people that don't like Trump'Ex-NBC News host Chuck Todd lamented on Thursday that the Democratic Party was just a collection of people who disliked President Donald Trump when pressed on whether the Democrats were a left-of-center party."I think this is the identity crisis that they have. I think its just a collection of people that dont like Trump right now, right? And thats served them well in 20, but imagine trying to create a big tent that had AOC and John Kasich in it, right? You know? Or Liz Cheney and AOC. You sort of got to rip a hole in the middle, right, as youre trying to stretch that tent," Todd told disgraced former CBS News anchor Charlie Rose.Todd and Rose discussed Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayor primary win and more during the conversation."It feels like theyre way too poll-tested. It feels like that theyre trying so hard to sort of keep their suburban voters, and thats been part of their problem. The growth in the Democratic electorate is in the suburbs, wealthy suburbs, and so the growth of the Republican electorate has been in the working-class exurbs and actually, even in working-class urban areas. And, I think that thats been their disconnect, is that their voters are in one place, their messaging is in another, but when they try to message to their suburban voters, they've sort of lost touch with their working-class roots," Todd continued.DEMOCRATS' MAJOR MESSAGING CRISIS: THE PARTY OF OPPOSITION WITHOUT SOLUTIONSTodd said both parties' coalitions were too big and added, "we would probably be a better democracy if we could have 4 major parties."The ex-NBC "Meet the Press" moderator has been critical of the party in the wake of former Vice President Kamala Harris' loss to Trump.He questioned whether the public was sold a "40-year bill of goods" with regard to former President Joe Biden's family-man image during a conversation with CNN host Jake Tapper on the "Chuck Toddcast.""You and I covered, for most of our professional lives, the story of Joe Biden was: This guy cared about his family so much he commuted home every night from Washington," Todd said. "You know what else you could say is, this man was so ambitious that after his family went through that tragedy, he commuted every day to work, like it's the same story. I sit here, I look at this, and I think, were we sold a 40-year bill of goods?"DEMOCRATIC PARTY SCRAMBLES TO FIX IMAGE AS MEMBERS ACKNOWLEDGE PARTY 'LOST CREDIBILITY'Todd said in March that Democratic leadership, specifically House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, were feeling "paralyzed" by the two different constituencies within the Democratic Party."Jeffries and Schumer are acting paralyzed because they have two different constituencies. They have ones who are worried about a left-wing tea party, and they should be worried about that, because I do think this anger inside the base is real," Todd said. "Then you have others who are like, hey, I won, and Trump carried my state. So Ive got to do this. So, I think thats why Jeffries and Schumer come across as paralyzed, because theyre trying to placate a coalition party that doesnt know which direction to go to."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURETodd suggested during his conversation with Rose that the Republicans might not have stuck with Trump as their nominee if Bidendidn't run for re-election at all.0 Comments 0 Shares 23 Views 0 Reviews

Navas wasnt able to guess right this time, as Downs went left and celebrated immediately as the ball hit the back of the net.During the 90 minutes before the shootout, there were fireworks as well, starting with "Los Ticos" getting on the board first. It was Calvo who got the best of Freese with a penalty shot in the 12th minute.However, the UMSNT rallied toward the end of the first half with Diego Luna scoring in the 43rd minute and Max Arfsten following it up in the 47th minute.Then, in the 71st minute midway through the second half, Martinez came sliding in after a rebound off Freese to tie the game up.But the USMNT will be the ones moving on to face Guatemala on Wednesday in the semifinal to determine who has a spot in the Gold Cup Final.The other semifinal is Mexico against Honduras, which will be played after the U.S. and Guatemala.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.0 Comments 0 Shares 15 Views 0 Reviews

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMRep. Steube slams Senate parliamentarian for gutting Trump's legislative agendaAn unelected Senate parliamentarian should not be deciding what stays and what doesn't in the so-called "Big, Beautiful Bill," Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., told Fox News Channel in an interview that earned President Trump's approval.Conservatives were furious on Thursday morning after learning Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled several key reforms and tweaks to Medicaid in the Senate GOPs version of President Trumps bill did not pass muster with Senate Rules. One senator, Roger Marshall, of Kansas, called for MacDonough to be replaced.Steube was a guest on FOX Report on Sunday morning, when host Jon Scott asked him where he stood on whether the parliamentarian should have been overruled or even fired. He agreed with Marshall.GOP SENATOR CALLS FOR PARLIAMENTARIAN'S FIRING AFTER SERVING MEDICAID BLOW TO TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL'"Yeah, I had called for her to be fired," Steube said. "I dont think that one person whosunelected, who got appointed over a decade ago, should be the one deciding what stays in and what doesnt."Lawmakers across the U.S. were elected by their constituents to make those decisions; not the parliamentarians, he said.At the moment, Republicans hold majorities in the House and the Senate. MacDonough was appointed by the late Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who was a Democrat.FURY ERUPTS AS UNELECTED SENATE 'SCOREKEEPER' BLOCKS TRUMP'S AGENDASteube questioned why current Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., would not replace MacDonough with a Republican appointee."Weve certainly called for that," Steube said. "Thune has said hes not going to do that, so theyre going to move forward."Scott noted that MacDonough has said she is supposed to be call balls and strikes, not make political decisions. When Scott asked Steube if he thought MacDonough was working for the Democrats, the lawmaker noted she was appointed by one.SEVERAL PROVISIONS FAIL TO PASS MUSTER WITH SENATE RULES IN 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL'"What House lawmakers that have been elected by the people passed by a majority of the House of Representatives and sent over to the Senate are now getting struck by one person who was appointed by Harry Reid," Steube said. "I certainly don't think that's what the American people voted for.Trump later posted about Steubes interview on Truth Social."Great Congressman Greg Steube is 100% correct," the president wrote. "An unelected Senate Staffer (Parliamentarian), should not be allowed to hurt the Republicans Bill. Wants many fantastic things out. NO!"Fox News Digitals Alex Miller contributed to this report.0 Comments 0 Shares 15 Views 0 Reviews

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMUK punk-rap duo sparks outrage with anti-Israel chants at major music festivalA punk-rap duo out of the United Kingdom that shouted, "Death to the IDF," and "Free Palestine" during their set at the Glastonbury Festival, is now being condemned by political and festival officials for their actions.London-based Bob Vylan describes itself on X as the "prettiest punk/rap/alt thing youll ever meet." With songs like "We Live Here," "Dream Bigger," "Makes Me Violent," and "Terms & Conditions," the duo mixes elements of rap and punk.The duo performed a high-energy set at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday, whic ultimately turned into a political podium for the groups singer to shout out anti-Israel rhetoric.While holding the microphone, singer Bobby Vylan shouted, "Death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]," several times before turning the microphone toward the crowd to get attendees to repeat the chant. The IDF is the national military of Israel. Videos from the crowds view showed several Palestinian flags waving as the performer and attendees shouted back and forth.RAPPER PULLS OUT OF MUSIC FESTIVALS ALLEGING THEY WANTED HER TO MAKE FREE PALESTINE STATEMENTS ONSTAGEAt one point, Vylan shouted "Free, Free, Free Palestine," and again, had some in the crowd repeat what he said.Before returning to his set, though, Vylan ended the chant and said, "Hell yeah, from the river to the sea. Palestine must be, will be inshallah, it will be free."Videos of the chants spread across the internet like crazy, and now British police in Somerset and Avon are reviewing the videos to "determine whether any offenses may have been committed that would require a criminal investigation."EX-MUMFORD & SONS GUITARIST CRITICIZES MUSIC INDUSTRY FOR SILENCE AFTER BOULDER ANTISEMITIC ATTACKThe BBC reported that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned Bob Vylan for calling on the death of Israeli troops with the use of "appalling hate speech."The BBC, which broadcast the festival live, has reportedly chosen to remove the duos set from its iPlayer.The BBC said it issued a warning on screen about "very strong and discriminatory language" during the live stream, The Associated Press reported.Festival organizers did not take the comments lightly and have since released a statement on Instagram saying, "Glastonbury Festival was created in 1970 as a place for people to come together and rejoice in music, the arts and the best of human endeavour."RETIRED UK POLICE OFFICER SUING AFTER BEING ARRESTED OVER 'THOUGHT CRIME' POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA"As a festival, we stand against all forms of war and terrorism. We will always believe in - and actively campaign for - hope, unity, peace and love," the statement read. "With almost 4,000 performances at Glastonbury 2025, there will inevitably be artists and speakers appearing on our stages whose views we do not share, and a performers presence here should never be seen as a tacit endorsement of their opinions and beliefs."However, we are appalled by the statements made from the West Holts stage by Bob Vylan yesterday," the statement continued. "Their chants very much crossed a line and we are urgently reminding everyone involved in the production of the Festival that there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence."Another group, Kneecap, also performed on Saturday despite a terror charge for one of its members over allegedly supporting Hezbollah. During the performance, Kneecap led a huge crowd in chants of "Free Palestine."Famously known as Britain's biggest summer music festival, Glastonbury draws a crowd of nearly 200,000 music fans every year to Worthy Farm in southwest England. About 4,000 acts perform during the festival on 120 stages.The Associated Press contributed to this report.0 Comments 0 Shares 13 Views 0 Reviews
