A federal judge in New Jersey ruled that President Donald Trump's effort to deport anti-Israel activist Mahmoud Khalil is most likely unconstitutional on Wednesday.U.S. District Judge Michael Farbiarz handed down the ruling, though he did not go so far as to order Khalil's release. Farbiarz argued that the Trump administration's deportation order was likely to be dismissed as "unconstitutionally vague.""The district court held what we already knew: Secretary Rubios weaponization of immigration law to punish Mahmoud and others like him is likely unconstitutional," lawyers for Khalil said after the ruling.Khalil, who was approved for deportation by a U.S. immigration judge, has argued that his free speech rights were being "eroded" by the Trump administration.MAHMOUD KHALIL RIPS REPRESSIVE TRUMP ADMIN FOR ERODING HIS RIGHTS IN WASHINGTON POST OP-EDKhalil is accused of being a ringleader for anti-Israel protests at Columbia University.Department of Homeland Security (DHS) attorneys have argued that Khalil's free speech claims were a "red herring," saying that the 30-year-old green card holder lied on his visa applications.Khalil, they said, willfully failed to disclose his employment with the Syrian office in the British Embassy in Beirut when he applied for permanent U.S. residency.COLUMBIA ANTI-ISRAEL PROTESTER MAHMOUD KHALIL CAN BE DEPORTED, JUDGE RULESKhalil has Algerian citizenship through his mother, but was born in a Palestinian refugee camp in Syria.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPKhalil is married to Noor Abdalla, a U.S. citizen.

House Republicans are celebrating Medicaid reform in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which the House GOP says eliminates waste, fraud and abuse to deliver for Americans who need coverage most.Meanwhile, Democrats have railed against possible Medicaid cuts since President Donald Trump was elected in November. Now that his "big, beautiful bill" has passed in the House of Representatives, Democrats are defining Medicaid cuts as a driving issue ahead of competitive midterm elections in 2026.Republicans say there is more to the story."The One, Big Beautiful Bill puts Americans first. We're securing the border. We're protecting benefits for the most vulnerable. We are investing in American manufacturing. We're investing in our own energy production," Rep. Erin Houchin, R-Ind., told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview."The Democrats have been focusing on this specific line of attack that 13.7 million Americans are going to lose their health care, and that's just blatantly false."DEMOCRATS PREDICT PASSING TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' WILL COST MANY REPUBLICANS THEIR SEATSThe Congressional Budget Office (CBO), a nonpartisan analysis for the U.S. Congress, estimates that 8.6 million people in the United States will lose health insurance by 2034 through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act's Medicaid reform."Five million of those people are receiving a tax credit under the Affordable Care Act that was passed by the Democrats with a sunset date that was implemented by the Democrats. We're simply allowing the sunset date to expire as the Democrats originally intended," Houchin said.DEMS WARN HOUSE REPUBLICANS WILL PAY PRICE AT BALLOT BOX FOR PASSING TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL'CBO estimates that 13.7 million Americans will lose coverage by 2034, which also includes the 5 million Americans who were already set to lose coverage. A number of Democrats have already deployed the figure in campaign messages rejecting Trump's "big, beautiful bill" passing in the House."I don't trust the CBO score, nor should the American people, because it's been proven again and again to be wildly off," added Houchin, who served on three major committees leading budget markup, including the House Rules, Budget and Energy and Commerce committees.The American Accountability Foundation, a conservative government research nonprofit, found that of the 32 staff members on CBO's Health Analysis Division, 26 of them have "clearly" verified liberal partisan biases, as a Democrat donor, registered Democrat or a Democratic primary voter, as Fox News Digital reported this month.The One Big Beautiful Bill Act does not cut Medicaid for the most vulnerable, according to Houchin. Instead, she says targeting waste, fraud and abuse in the Medicaid program cuts benefits to illegal immigrants, those ineligible to receive benefits who are currently receiving benefits, duplicate enrollees in one or more states and those who are able-bodied but are choosing not to work."If you have to think about the four things that we're doing in Medicaid to strengthen it, we're removing anybody that is illegal, ineligible or duplicate, and we're ensuring that able-bodied adults, on the expansion population, have a very modest work requirement, in exchange for receiving benefits. Those things are overwhelmingly supported by the American people, yet the Democrats continue to lie about what this bill is actually doing," Houchin said.Republicans say they are cleaning up the program to ensure working families and the most vulnerable Americans can rely on the program for generations to come."What we're trying to do is protect precious Medicaid dollars for those who need it most," Houchin said. "That's what we're doing. No one in the traditional Medicaid population needs to worry. And even if you're in the able-body expansion population, there are many opportunities to comply to participate in Medicaid."However, Democrats have already designated Medicaid cuts as a defining issue in 2026."House Republicans' giant tax scam will kick millions of people off their health insurance," Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) spokesperson Viet Shelton told Fox News Digital. "It is fact. Independent analysts say it. Health care professionals say it. Hell, even Republican senators say so. Their saying anything to the contrary is just them trying to protect their already in danger majority."After weeks of negotiating through budget reconciliation, House Republicans finally reached a consensus and passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act last week. The bill passed just 215 to 214, and all Democrats voted against it. Republicans' slim majority managed to deliver a legislative win for Trump.However, the "big, beautiful" fight is far from over as the Senate is tasked with drafting their own version of the bill. Senate Republicans have indicated they do not support the bill in its current form."I dont want to see rural hospitals close their doors because funding got cut. I also dont like the idea of a hidden tax on the working poor. Thats why Im a NO on this House bill in its current form," Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., said.The sweeping, multitrillion-dollar legislation advances Trump's agenda on taxes, immigration, energy, defense and the national debt. The bill includes Trump's key campaign promises, including no tax on tips and overtime, and it seeks to permanently extend his 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act."By passing the largest cut to Medicaid in history, Republicans are ripping away health care from millions of Americans and levying a de facto hidden tax on working-class families," DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene said in a statement after the bill passed. "Now that vulnerable Republicans areon the record voting for it, this betrayal of the American people will cost them their jobs in the midterms and Republicans the House Majority come 2026."While Democrats target vulnerable Republicans for supporting Medicaid reform in Trump's "big, beautiful bill," Republicans are taking aim at Democrats for voting against the bill's tax cuts."House Democrats voted for the largest tax increase in generations while giving taxpayer-funded freebies to illegal immigrants. The NRCC will make sure voters don't forget how they betrayed working families," National Republican Campaign Committee (NRCC) spokesman Mike Marinella said in a statement to Fox News Digital.As House members return to their home states and communicate with constituents during the congressional recess, the NRCC is encouraging House Republicans to go on the offense on Medicaid reform."We're encouraging all of our caucus, our conference members to continue to communicate with the local and national media to reiterate what we know to be true about this One Big Beautiful Bill," Houchin said."It puts Americans first and will ensure that these programs will be around for the next generation, because we're not wasting any tax dollars, any precious benefits on people who are illegal, ineligible, enrolled in multiple states or are able-bodied and could be working. These programs were designed for our most vulnerable Americans, and the One Big Beautiful Bill protects benefits for those people."Fox News Digital's Elizabeth Elkind and Louis Casiano contributed to this report.

FIRST ON FOX: House Republicans are mounting a push to start a new select committee focused on investigating the Biden administration for allegedly "covering up" signs of the 82-year-old former president's decline.Rep. Buddy Carter, R-Ga., is introducing legislation Thursday that would establish a panel of congressional investigators to "investigate and report upon the facts of President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr.s cognitive and physical health decline and the potential concealment of information from the American public," according to bill text obtained by Fox News Digital.Republicans have unleashed a tidal wave of scrutiny on the previous Democrat White House as new reports as well as old concerns previously dismissed by mainstream media surface about Biden's mental state while in office and what lengths those closest to him took to allegedly hide it from others.SCOOP: HOUSE GOP MEMO HIGHLIGHTS REPUBLICAN WINS IN TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL'Carter's text calls to investigate former Vice President Kamala Harris and former first lady Jill Biden as well as whoever took part in keeping the audio tapes of Special Counsel Robert Hur's interview with Biden from the public.The select committee would also focus on whether Biden allies "concealed" his prostate cancer diagnosis before it was announced publicly last week.Biden's spokesperson denied prior knowledge of the diagnosis in a statement to the New York Times.The resolution also specifically called for a probe into the use of the autopen in Biden's White House to sign meaningful legislation."This is potentially the biggest political scandal of our lifetime, and the American people deserve to know the truth about who was really running the White House during Bidens tenure as president," Carter told Fox News Digital of his legislation."From using the autopen to pardon his own family members to likely concealing a cancer diagnosis, our government must restore trust with the public by fully investigating the former administrations lies and getting to the bottom of one of the most consequential coverups in history."Carter, who is currently running for Senate in Georgia, was among several Republicans who demanded Biden take a cognitive test last year."The American people can no longer be left to wonder about their safety and security because of the Presidents deteriorating mental state," Carter wrote in a June 2024 letter to the White House.MIKE JOHNSON, DONALD TRUMP GET BIG, BEAUTIFUL WIN AS BUDGET PASSES HOUSEHis new resolution comes on the heels of House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., opening his own investigation into revelations surrounding Biden's cognitive decline.Comer spent much of the last Congress investigating whether Biden and his family unjustly profited from foreign cash.The House Oversight chair sent letters to former senior White House aides, including Biden's doctor, Kevin O'Connor, announcing a probe into "the role of former senior Biden White House officials in possibly usurping authority from former President Joe Biden and the ramifications of a White House staff intent on hiding his rapidly worsening mental and physical faculties."Meanwhile, first-term Rep. Jimmy Patronis, R-Fla., called for a similar select committee on Wednesday.

President Donald Trump ripped a reporter in the Oval Office Wednesday for asking a "nasty question" about his tariff deals."Mr. President, Wall Street analysts have coined a new term called the TACO trade. Theyre saying, Trump Always Chickens Out - on your tariff threats. And thats why markets are higher this week. Whats your response to that?" CNBC White House correspondent Megan Casella asked during a brief gaggle."Oh, isnt that nice. Chicken out. Ive never heard that," Trump responded. "You mean because I reduced China from 145% that I set down to 100 and then down to another number? I said, You have to open your whole country."TRUMP RIPS ABC REPORTER FOR ASKING ABOUT ACCEPTING JET FROM QATAR, SAYS SHE SHOULD BE 'EMBARRASSED'He went on, "And because I gave the European Union a 50% tariff? And they called up, and they said, Please, lets meet right now. And I said, Okay, Ill give you until June. I actually asked them, I said, 'What's the date?' Because they weren't willing to meet. And after I did what I did, they said, We'll meet anytime you want. And we have an end date of July 9. You call that chickening out? Because we have $14 trillion now invested, committed to investing when Biden didn't have practically anything."Trump contrasted the situation with the Biden administration, saying the U.S. was "stone-cold dead" six months ago."We had a dead country. We had a country people didn't think was going to survive. And you ask a nasty question like that? It's called negotiation," Trump said.Trump said lowering the number was part of an ongoing "negotiation" with China and attacked the question."Dont ever say what you said. Thats a nasty question. To me, thats the nastiest question," Trump said before calling another reporter.Casella later reported on the event while appearing on CNBCs "The Exchange.""He did not like this question, I can tell you," Casella said.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREShe also joked that the "nasty" jab was a "badge of honor" of sorts.After announcing several widespread tariffs in April, the Trump administration announced a pause on all tariffs except China until July to negotiate better deals.Earlier this month, Trump agreed to a temporary reduction of Chinas tariff rates from 145% to approximately 30% as negotiations continued.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

Theres something almost poetic about the Democratic Partys desperation. Faced with a mass exodus of young men from their ranks, the lefts solution isnt to rethink their disastrous policies or the cultural rot theyve championed. Nope, theyve decided to shell out tens of millions of dollars to study us. Not talk to us. Not listen. Not ask honest questions. Just study us-like were alien creatures under a microscope.That's not strategyits stupidity. And worse, it shows how wildly out of touch Democrats have become with reality, especially the reality young men live every day. You couldnt make this up if you tried. Lets get one thing straight: no amount of polling, focus groups or think-tank memos is going to win back the respect of my generation. Because Gen Z guys arent confused about why were walking away were walking away because the modern Democratic Party has spent years demonizing us, mocking masculinity and replacing real leadership with TikTok cringe and rainbow flag activism. Weve been told were toxic if we believe in traditional values. Were called privileged if we work hard and succeed. Were branded threats if we dare to question liberal narratives on gender, race or the role of government. And now, when that propaganda isnt working anymore, theyre throwing cash at consultants to figure out why? Its laughable. And its offensive.DEM STRATEGY SESSION TO STOP HEMORRHAGING OF MALE VOTERS RIDICULEDIf Democrats truly wanted to connect with young men, theyd have to do something radicalsomething theyve proven time and time again theyre unwilling to do: tell the truth. The truth about crime. The truth about border security. The truth about the value of hard work, responsibility, and yes, masculinity. But they wont. Because to embrace those values would be to admit their entire cultural agenda for the last decade has been a failure.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONSo instead, theyll burn through tens of millions of dollars trying to "understand" us money that will go straight into the pockets of overpaid consultants, liberal marketers and out-of-touch campaign staff who think a few new slogans and a TikTok dance will change the tide. It wont. If anything, itll backfire.Young men arent hard to figure out. We want freedom. We want opportunity. We want leaders who wont apologize for loving America. We want a government that works for us not against us. Were tired of being ignored. Were tired of being blamed. And were *definitely* tired of being studied like were some great political mystery. Were not a mystery. Were a movement.DEMOCRATIC PARTY SCRAMBLES TO FIX IMAGE AS MEMBERS ACKNOWLEDGE PARTY 'LOST CREDIBILITY'The fact that the Left is admitting they have to invest tens of millions of dollars just to understand us proves how disconnected they are from the very people they claim to care about. And its not just embarrassing, its revealing. It shows that even now, they still think politics is something you can buy. But heres the truth they refuse to learn: no amount of money will make my generation go back to a party thats lied to us, mocked us, and tried to erase everything we believe in.The Democrats want to know why theyre losing Gen Z men? Its simple: because weve seen what they offer and were not buying it. Let them keep setting their money on fire. The rest of us are building something real.
