A bipartisan duo bent on imposing strict sanctions against Russia are giving President Donald Trump some runway after his latest, hardened stance against Moscow.Senators Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., have pressed for stringent sanctions against Russia and its energy trade partners, and they have been working to refine their bill to meet requirements from the White House that give Trump more flexibility.The bill had been sidelined by congressional Republicans push to pass the presidents "big, beautiful bill" and had been eyed for a vote possibly by the end of the month.RUSSIA SANCTIONS BILL GAINS STEAM AS WHITE HOUSE APPEARS TO CHANGE TONE ON PUTINBut Trumps announcement that he would levy 100% tariffs against Moscow unless Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to end the war with Ukraine has likely again stalled that plan, and the bipartisan pair isn't mad about it."It sounds like right now the president is going to attempt to do some of this on his own," Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., told reporters. "If at some point the president concludes that it makes sense and adds value and leverage that he needs in those negotiations to move the bill, then well do it. Well be ready to go."WHITE HOUSE TAKES INTEREST IN PROPOSED RUSSIAN SANCTIONS AS UKRAINE WAR PEACE TALKS DRAG ONThe presidents warning came after he agreed to sell weapons to NATO, which, in turn, would be sent to Ukraine to resupply their dwindling stocks."We're pleased that the president sort of buys into that way of doing business. We'll continue to work with the White House to see if we can provide him a tool that Congress has been working on," Graham said. Their bill would slap up to 500% tariffs on countries buying energy products from Moscow in a bid to kneecap Russias war machine by imposing duties on oil, gas, uranium and other exports, largely purchased by China and India, which account for nearly three-quarters of Moscows energy business.MASSIVE RUSSIA SANCTIONS PACKAGE STALLS AS TRUMP PUSHES FOR UKRAINE PEACE TALKSBut that doesnt mean that work on the bill has ceased. Graham noted that having Congress blessing "is good for the president" and could help him legally and politically."But between the weapons flowing and sanctions through tariffs on the table, I think we can say today was a game changer that we've been waiting on and hoping for, and on day 51 you want to know what happens," Graham said. "Call the Ayatollah."Blumenthal lauded Trumps shift and gave him credit "for seeing through the mocking and flouting by Vladimir Putin." He argued that the bill, which has dozens of co-sponsors in the Senate and backing by House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., had already made an impact and noted that Trumps move was like a "hammer." "Our bill is a sledgehammer," Blumenthal said.

Former President Barack Obama is urging Democrats to stop complaining and get involved, telling party members dissatisfied with its direction to "just toughen up."But one conservative podcaster says she doubts the younger generation will respond to that advice."These new young Democrats coming in, they said actually something very similar to what Obama said," Fox News contributor and political commentator Brett Cooper told "Americas Newsroom" on Tuesday."They said it's time to start actually having solutions and to stop whining about what Republicans are doing and actually try to compete with them."DEM STRATEGIST BEHIND RACY ATTACK ADS SAYS PARTY DOESN'T NEED LIBERAL ROGAN BUT DOES NEED TO WIN THE CULTURECooper noted a rising sense of frustration among Gen Z progressives who feel the Democratic Party isnt doing enough to contend with Republicans. Its a similar sentiment shared by former President Barack Obama during a fundraiser with Democratic donors last week."I think its going to require a little bit less navel-gazing and a little less whining and being in fetal positions. And its going to require Democrats to just toughen up," said Obama, according to excerpts obtained by CNN."Dont tell me youre a Democrat, but youre kind of disappointed right now, so youre not doing anything. No, now is exactly the time that you get in there and do something."Many younger Democrats have launched primary campaigns nationwide, looking to dethrone establishment Democrats.I'M A YOUNG DEMOCRAT AND I'VE GOT TO ADMIT MY PARTY IS LOSING 2025 WHILE LOOKING AT 2028"One of the things that they've [Democrats] accidentally done right is infuriating young people," argued Cooper, who said upsetting Gen Z voters may have energized the base more."Because Gen Z, as we know, they are very emotional, especially on the left. They want to be involved."There are a slew of young Democratic hopefuls looking to unseat older lawmakers. 25-year-old social media influencer and progressive activist Deja Foxx is among those young candidates with a chance at claiming a House seat.In an upset victory, she was able to win the Democratic Partys congressional primary for an Arizona House seat.

Raul Grijalva in March.DEMS PROMOTING AOC, SANDERS FALLS FLAT WITH YOUNG VOTERS AS GEN Z SEES THROUGH FALSE PROMISES: RNC YOUTH CHAIR"I think by pissing them off, really, and screwing up the last election for the Democrats, that they've gotten a lot of younger people engaged," explained Cooper, who added that their increased participation stems from a desire to shift the partys direction.Cooper also said more young people are getting involved because of social media, something she believes Republicans have done a better job utilizing so far."They saw what really worked with Trump. They saw what worked with JD Vance, of having authentic leaders who are speaking directly to the people, who are big on social media but actually feel like they're speaking directly to the public rather than just having a [communications team] run everything," she said.Its that online authenticity, Cooper said, that could lead younger Democrats to pose a larger threat in elections moving forward.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

Chris Cuomo said on his podcast Tuesday that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is a "symbol of the demise" of the Democrats and urged the party to move on from her.Cuomo warned Democrats that backing candidates like Ocasio-Cortez who prioritize the needs of "the few over the many" will ultimately lead to the partys downfall, calling attention given to her a "huge f-----g mistake."The former CNN anchor stated that the current meaning of "woke" is about "weighing the needs and wants of the few over the many," and that the Democrats are making that mistake once again by legitimizing the New York City congresswoman.CHRIS CUOMO SLAMS CHRIS MURPHY FOR 'CHEAP SHOT' SUGGESTION THAT TRUMP FUNDING CUTS PLAYED PART IN TEXAS FLOODS"AOC is a major perpetrator and symbol of the demise of the Democratic Party by going too far down the road of favoring the few over the many," he said.Later on in the show, Cuomo continued his criticisms of Ocasio-Cortez, a democratic socialist, warning Democrats that spotlighting her is aiding the rise of dangerous ideologies into the mainstream."I think you're making a mistake paying attention to AOC and this new deference to radical left and radical fundamentalist and radical Islamist sympathies. I think it's a huge f-----g mistake," he asserted.Cuomo reiterated that Democrats are "once again valuing the few over the many," and warned that the "pickle" they are getting themselves into by supporting Ocasio-Cortez may bring backlash upon them like they've never seen before.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE"If you [Democrats] think trans sports got you in a pickle, you're about to be in a whole bucket of brine," he cautioned.His brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, is currently challenging another democratic socialist, Zohran Mamdani, in the New York City mayoral race. Mamdani beat Cuomo out for the Democratic nomination last month, but Cuomo is still running in the general election.Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville seems to be on the same page as Chris Cuomo, calling out Democrats in April for allowing Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., to define the party.Carville emphasized the party's deep talent pool that they should be showcasing to help redefine its identity, rather than the ultra-progressive platform that representatives like Ocasio-Cortez promote."There's truly depth and talent in the Democratic Party and the faster that we can get them on the field and people seeing them, and the sooner we can get people like Bernie Sanders and AOC not defining who the party is, the better off we're going to be," Carville argued.Fox News Digital reached out to Ocasio-Cortez's office for comment.

Former Democratic New York governor Andrew Cuomo is not giving up after losing the New York Citys Democratic mayoral primary to young democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani, as he believes his opponent will cause the city's demise.In an interview published Tuesday with New York Magazine, the former governor admitted his mistakes that led to him losing to Mamdani last month, and laid out how he is still the best option to beat the Democratic nominee. He argued that if he doesnt beat the democratic socialist, New York City will suffer catastrophe.Cuomo told the outlet that Mamdanis anti-Israel views and socialist policies "would mean death for the City of New York."CUOMO, ADAMS TRADE SHOTS OVER WHO SHOULD DROP OUT IN RACE AGAINST MAMDANI FOR NYC MAYORThe former three-term governor of the state lost the Democratic mayoral primary to Mamdani in June by double digits.

Mamdani is the current favorite in the crowded field."Only 13% of New Yorkers voted in the June primary. The general election is in November, and I am in it to win it," Cuomo declared in a video posted to social media. He charged that Mamdani "offers slick slogans but no real solutions."In his NY Mag interview, the former mayor mentioned the mistakes he believed cost him the primary."I was not as aggressive as I should be, which is really ironic because my whole life people have been saying about me, Oh, hes too aggressive, too combative, pushes too hard. And then in this campaign, its Im not aggressive enough, which is actually true," he said.

Constitutional legal scholar Randy Barnett admonished Democrats' rhetoric claiming democracy is at risk under the Trump administration when "the biggest constitutional scandal in US history" played out under the Biden administration with the use of the autopen."For all the talk of a constitutional crisis' or threats to our democracy having the executive branch systematically run by unknown subordinates of a mentally incompetent president is the biggest constitutional scandal in US history its called into question the legality of official acts done in his name but without proper authority," Barnett posted to X Monday."Southern secession was a constitutional crisis," Barnett added in a follow-up message Tuesday. "This is a constitutional scandal."Barnett, a Georgetown University law professor who serves as the director of the Georgetown Center for the Constitution, was referring to an interview former President Joe Biden conducted with the New York Times defending his use of an autopen. Biden said he orally approved a long list of clemency and pardon actions at the end of his tenure, but that his aides used the autopen to officiate the actions.BIDEN CHIEF OF STAFF REPORTEDLY GAVE APPROVAL FOR AUTOPEN PARDONS ON FINAL DAY IN OFFICEAmid the Biden autopen controversy, Democratic lawmakers and left-wing media pundits have continued slamming Trump as a threat to democracy which was a common talking point during the election cycle and claiming his actions as president, such as deporting illegal immigrants and revoking visa privileges for some foreign students, have thrown the U.S. into a constitutional crisis.Biden told the Times that he was aware of every pardon ahead of leaving office in 2024, which included clemency and commutation actions related to 2,500 nonviolent drug offenders in his final weeks in office alone."I made every decision," Biden told the Times in a phone interview earlier in July that was published Sunday. He added that staff used the autopen for the pardons and commutations "because there were a lot of them.""Mr. Biden did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to large numbers of people, he and aides confirmed," the Times reported. "Rather, after extensive discussion of different possible criteria, he signed off on the standards he wanted to be used to determine which convicts would qualify for a reduction in sentence."BIDEN DEFENDS CONTROVERSIAL AUTOPEN USE FOR MASS CLEMENCY DECISIONS IN NYT INTERVIEW: 'A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE'Biden also pardoned Anthony Fauci, former chief medical advisor to the president; former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley; and members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots. Less than half an hour before Trump became president, Biden also pardoned members of his family, including his brothers James B. Biden and Francis W. Biden, sister Valerie Biden Owens and brother-in-law John T. Owens.Autopen signatures are produced by a machine, as opposed to an authentic, handwritten signature.The conservative Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project first investigated the Biden administration's use of an autopen earlier in 2025 and found that the same signature was on a bevvy of executive orders and other official documents, while Bidens signature on the document announcing his departure from the 2024 race varied from the apparent machine-produced signature.The use of the autopen follows years of mounting concern that Biden's mental acuity and health were deteriorating, which hit a fever pitch during the 2024 campaign cycle following the president's disastrous debate performance against Trump. Biden ultimately dropped out of the race on July 21, 2024, and endorsed then-Vice President Kamala Harris to run in his place. Since reclaiming the Oval Office, Trump has balked at his predecessor's use of the autopen, claiming Biden's staff allegedly used the pen to sign off on presidential actions unbeknownst to Biden."I guarantee you he knew nothing about what he was signing, I guarantee you," Trump said Monday when asked about Biden's interview with the Times.TRUMP RESPONDS TO BIDEN DISMISSAL OF AUTOPEN PROBE, SAYS HE DIDN'T KNOW 'WHAT WAS GOING ON'Biden's interview follows Trump sending a memo to the Department of Justice in June directing Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate whether Biden administration aides conspired to deceive the public about his mental state, and simultaneously used an autopen to sign key presidential actions.TRUMP ORDERS ATTORNEY GENERAL TO INVESTIGATE BIDEN'S AUTOPEN USE AMID COGNITIVE DECLINE CONCERNS"In recent months, it has become increasingly apparent that former President Biden's aides abused the power of Presidential signatures through the use of an autopen to conceal Biden's cognitive decline and assert Article II authority," Trump wrote in his letter. "This conspiracy marks one of the most dangerous and concerning scandals in American history. The American public was purposefully shielded from discovering who wielded the executive power, all while Biden's signature was deployed across thousands of documents to effect radical policy shifts."Biden said in his New York Times interview that Trump and other Republicans are "liars" for claiming he was incapacitated as president and that his aides used the pen for official presidential actions."Theyre liars. They know it. They know, for certain. I mean, this is look, what they, theyve had a pretty good thing going here. Theyve done so badly. Theyve lied so consistently about almost everything theyre doing. The best thing they can do is try to change the focus and focus on something else. And this is a I think thats what this is about," he said.

Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., accused Mike Waltz of displaying "profound cowardice" at the former national security advisor's confirmation hearing to represent the U.S. at the U.N. Tuesday, amid questions about the Signal group chat that his team had set up to discuss strikes against the Houthis in March.Booker, who refused to ask any questions, said Waltz failed to take accountability when other lawmakers on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee asked him about what has been called "Signalgate."While members of the Trump administration have said no classified information was disclosed in the chat, which mistakenly included a journalist, Democrats have claimed that certain details were classified and jeopardized the safety of the troops involved in the strikes."It compounds what I think is disqualifying about you for this position. It also, to me, just shows profound cowardice," Booker said. "You should step up right now.""I just watched with great disappointment that even after weeks, if not months of reflection, you couldn't sit before this committee and take some responsibility and talk constructively about what's learned," Booker said.Waltz faced questions earlier from Sens. Chris Coons, D-Conn, and Tim Kaine, D-Va., on his involvement in the group chat, where a journalist from the Atlantic was included along with other top administration officials such as Vice President JD Vance,Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.SENATE DEMOCRATS PREDICTING BRUTAL UN AMBASSADOR CONFIRMATION HEARING FOR MIKE WALTZDuring their questioning, Waltz maintained that no classified information was shared in the group chat, and said no disciplinary action was taken following a White House investigation. The Pentagons inspector generals investigation is currently ongoing."I have nothing but deep disappointment in what I consider a failure of leadership on your part. God, America needs now more than ever forget the partisanship just people to step up and show heart and integrity and honor," Booker said. "When you lie, defer, deflect, demean and degrade journalists, to me it's absolutely unacceptable. I have no questions. I cannot support your nomination. I think you've shown a failure of leadership at a time that America especially needs people of honor to stand up and show what leadership actually is."Waltz, who before his time at the National Security Council previously served as a U.S. congressman from Florida and is a retired Army National Guard colonel and former Green Beret, challenged Bookers statement.NEXT US NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR? HERE'S WHOM TRUMP MIGHT PICK TO REPLACE WALTZ"I appreciate the men and women that I've had to lead in combat," Waltz said. "And I think the last thing they would call me is a coward."Waltz and Hegseth both faced scrutiny for their involvement in the Signal chat that Waltzs team created, where members of the Trump administration discussed strike plans against the Houthis.In March, Waltz claimed he bore "full responsibility" for the Signal group chat, and the Trump administration has historically maintained no classified information was shared over the chats. The Atlantic published the full exchange of messages, which revealed that Hegseth included certain attack details such as specific aircraft and times of the strikes.President Donald Trump announced Waltz's departure from heading up the National Security Council at the White House on May 1, and hours later announced the former Florida congressmans nomination to represent the U.S. at the U.N.Waltz could not be reached for comment by Fox News Digital.MIKE WALTZ, OTHER NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL STAFFERS OUT IN LATEST TRUMP PURGE FOLLOWING SIGNAL CHAT LEAK

MLB commissioner Rob Manfred has upset the baseball purists, but the stats prove that his sweeping changes worked.Ahead of the 2023 season, MLB implemented a pitch timer, enlarged bases, and shift restrictions. As the average length of games is down more than a half hour since its peak of 3:11 in 2021, attendance has increased.Attendance has increased in each of the last two years. It was the first time since 2011 and 2012 that attendance grew in back-to-back seasons.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe World Series (granted, two huge markets between the Yankees and Dodgers) had its most viewers since 2017. But MLB on FOX viewership is up 10% compared to last year.Manfred has had his fair share of questionable moves, most notably letting the Houston Astros slide (on paper) for stealing signs in 2017 and calling the World Series trophy "a piece of metal." He also undersaw the sport's first work stoppage since 1994, and another lockout is looming after next season.At the end of the day, though, money talks, and Manfred has raked it in for the league.Because there are now more eyeballs on baseball, Alex Rodriguez said he is "a big Rob Manfred fan."MLBPA CHIEF SAYS FOREIGN PLAYERS TOLD TO CARRY DOCUMENTATION TO 'KEEP THEIR JOB'"I think he deserves a lot of credit. Singlehandedly, with the changes hes made the last two or three years to really save our game, he probably belongs in Cooperstown," Rodriguez said on "The Herd" Tuesday ahead of the All-Star Game.It's quite a compliment from Rodriguez, as Manfred played a significant role in Rodriguez's suspension for the entire 2014 season due to performance-enhancing drugs Manfred led the investigation into the Biogenesis scandal.Manfred has also implemented Negro League stats to count toward MLB numbers, revamped the World Baseball Classic and reinstated Pete Rose, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and others.Currently, the 2025 attendance is on pace to be lower than last year's and the year prior, but it should be noted that the rest of the summer needs to be played out, and two teams are playing in minor league stadiums, hurting their attendance numbers.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
