In a groundbreaking fusion of nature and technology, researchers at the University of Queensland have developed remote-controlled beetles equipped with tiny, removable backpacks that could drastically reduce the time it takes to locate survivors in disaster zones.Also known as cyborg beetles, these hybrid helpers are part of an ambitious project to improve emergency response in situations like building collapses, earthquakes or industrial explosions. By combining natural mobility with simple controls, researchers are developing a faster, more flexible way to reach people in hard-to-access areas.MINI ROBOTS DETECT AND FIX WATER PIPE LEAKS WITHOUT DIGGINGThe teams innovation involves fitting darkling beetles, or Zophobas morio, their scientific name, with microchip backpacks that deliver small electrical signals to guide their movement. These signals stimulate either the beetles antennae or their hardened forewings, prompting them to turn, stop or climb. The researchers even demonstrated real-time control using a standard video game controller.WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)?Robots at this scale still struggle with climbing vertical surfaces and navigating uneven terrain. These beetles, on the other hand, are naturally built for it. Their footpads and sensory systems let them crawl through narrow cracks and over rubble. This makes them well-suited for the unpredictable conditions found in disaster zones.Beetles were chosen for their strength, agility and resilience. Despite their small size, they can carry equipment nearly equal to their own body weight, which makes them an ideal platform for compact sensors and control systems in tight, dangerous spaces.Unlike custom-built robots, these beetles dont need motors or gears to move. Their natural ability to climb, squeeze and maneuver through tight spaces eliminates the need for complex mechanical systems. The programmable backpack simply adds directional control without harming the beetle or shortening its lifespan. The result is a biological tool that can access places humans and machines cannot. This could help reduce the time it takes to locate survivors in critical situations.GET FOX BUSINESS ON THE GO BY CLICKING HEREResearchers are now working to integrate miniature cameras and compact power systems to make the beetles even more effective. The goal is to create a lightweight, mobile, and affordable tool that can deliver real-time information from inside collapsed structures and hazardous environments. The team hopes to test the system in a live emergency simulation within the next five years. If successful, cyborg beetles could become a valuable part of urban response efforts around the world.Researchers are proving that cyborg beetles could play a real role in saving lives. By guiding beetles through tight, dangerous spaces using tiny backpacks and simple controls, scientists are exploring a low-cost and high-impact way to locate survivors where robots and humans can't go. The technology is still in development, but the potential is clear, especially in situations where every second counts.Would you trust a rescue led by a cyborg beetle?

Salvadorian migrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia is back in federal court in Tennessee, where a federal judge on Wednesday will hear an appeal from the Justice Department seeking to keep him detained in criminal custody pending trial.The request to U.S. District Judge Waverly Crenshaw from the Justice Department caps off months of confusing and contradictory statements from the Trump administration in the case of Abrego Garcia, who was erroneously deported to El Salvador in March in violation of a court order, and returned to the U.S. three months later in June.The acting U.S. attorney for the Middle District of Tennessee, Robert McGuire, urged Crenshaw in a new filing this week to keep Abrego Garcia detained in criminal custody pending trial, arguing in a filing that "there is no combination of bail conditions that can reasonably assure either the safety of the community or the defendants appearance in future court proceedings."ABREGO GARCIA LAWYERS ASK US JUDGE TO ORDER RETURN TO MARYLAND AMID ONGOING CRIMINAL CASEBut even that filing highlights the Justice Departments conflicting statements about its plans for Abrego Garcia, whose case is at the center of two high-profile hearings in Maryland and Tennessee.After months of delay, the Trump administration returned Abrego Garcia to the U.S., where he was immediately slapped with a newly unsealed federal indictment charging him with crimes stemming from a 2022 traffic stop in Tennessee.Abrego Garcia pleaded not guilty to those charges, and was ordered released pending trial by U.S. Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes.Holmes later amended her order to allow Abrego Garcia to be kept in federal custody at the request of his own legal team. His lawyers cited concerns that ICE would immediately take him into immigration custody and deport him to a third country upon his release.Senior Justice Department officials and ICE officials conceded to this plan last week, telling U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis in Maryland that the government would immediately begin removal proceedings to deport Abrego Garcia to a third country, regardless of the status of his criminal case. In doing so, they broke with previous assertions from U.S. officials, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, who vowed when he was returned that he would remain in U.S. custody for the duration of his trial and any prison time.SUPREME COURT GRANTS TRUMP REQUEST TO LIFT STAY HALTING VENEZUELAN DEPORTATIONSAsked by Judge Xinis last week whether the government planned to hold Abrego Garcia in ICE custody until his criminal case in Tennessee is over, lawyers for the administration did not mince their words."No," Justice Department attorney Jonathan Guynn answered simply."Theres no intention to just put him in limbo in ICE custody while we wait for the criminal case to unfold," Guynn told Xinis. "He will be removed, as would any other illegal alien in that process."Abrego Garcias second detention hearing in Tennessee comes after his legal team asked a federal judge in Maryland last week to impose sanctions on the Trump administration for the administrations "egregious" and "repeated violations" of discovery obligations, according to the filing.FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERS RETURN OF DEPORTED MIGRANT TO US, REJECTING TRUMP REQUESTXinis also pressed Justice Department officials for details as to when they opened a federal investigation into Abrego Garcia in a separate district in Tennessee, and how the timing of the investigation and federal indictment squared with the government's testimony in her own court.She noted that, by the governments own admission, it began investigating Abrego Garcia in the Middle District of Tennessee on April 28, 2025 the same time officials were telling the court that the administration was powerless to order a foreign government to return him, in compliance with the court order."At the same time that [the government] was saying it had no power to produce" Abrego Garcia in the U.S., Trump administration officials had "already secured an indictment against him in the Middle District of Tennessee, right?" Xinis asked Justice Department lawyer Bridget O'Hickey."Yes your honor," OHickey replied.An incredulous Xinis noted that, just six days later, the government testified they had no power to bring him back to the U.S. "Now I have real concerns as if I haven't for the last three months," Xinis noted in response."Given the series of unlawful actions" here, I feel like its well within my authority to order this hearing perhaps more than one to hear testimony from at least one witness with firsthand knowledge, who can answer these questions about the immediate next steps" from the government pending Abrego Garca's release from custody, she said.

Reducing the risk of Alzheimers could be as simple as eating the right food.A new study by researchers in Boston, Chicago and Washington, D.C., found that eating foods high in choline could lower the risk of developing the common dementia.Choline is an essential micronutrient found in various foods, including poultry, dairy products (such as milk, yogurt and eggs), cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and Brussels sprouts, beans and some fish, according to the USDA.THE KEY TO LIVING LONGER COULD BE TIED TO A SURPRISING SUBSTANCE, STUDY SUGGESTSDietary choline intake has been associated with a lower risk of cognitive function and reduced risk of dementia, the researchers concluded.In the study, participants averaging 81 years of age who did not have Alzheimer's completed dietary questionnaires and underwent annual neurological exams.After an eight-year follow-up, researchers determined that consuming about 350 milligrams of choline per day was associated with the lowest risk of clinical Alzheimers diagnoses in older adults.Los Angeles-based registered dietitian nutritionist Ilana Muhlstein has also backed the impact of choline on brain health, citing a 2024 China-based study that found intake improves cognitive function, especially among women."This is the study that inspired me to start supplementing choline," she said. "My memory has gotten worse over the years. I first wrote it off as pregnancy brain, then mommy brain, but eventually realized I should do my best to help it.""I already sleep well, exercise regularly, play mahjong and limit my alcohol, so choline was the next obvious tool worth trying."WARDING OFF ALZHEIMER'S MIGHT MEAN MAKING THESE 11 LIFESTYLE CHANGES, EXPERT SAYSMuhlstein shared that more than 90% of the choline in eggs comes from the yolk. For those who choose to eat egg whites for dietary reasons, taking a choline supplement may be a better option.Choline intake should be tailored to each person's individual needs, the nutritionist noted, referencing guidance from the Harvard School of Public Health."Premenopausal women may have lower requirements for dietary choline, because higher estrogen levels stimulate the creation of choline in the body," the university wrote.In a separate interview with Fox News Digital, Dr. Daniel Amen, a psychiatrist, brain imaging doctor and founder of Amen Clinics in California, emphasized the importance of eating the right foods for brain health."Your brain uses 20% to 30% of the calories you consume," he said. "So, nutrition is critical to help your brain or hurt your brain."Walnuts are one of Amens favorite brain-healthy food options, as they contain choline as well as omega-3 fatty acids.He also recommends including wild salmon as a dietary staple, as it's high in omega-3s and healthy protein, as well as organic blueberries and green, leafy vegetables.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER"If you had a salad every day, and you put blueberries and salmon and walnuts on it with a little lemon and olive oil, that would be a perfect brain-boosting lunch," he said.The doctor also suggested considering certain supplements to foster better brain health, including vitamin D, omega-3 or fish oil, or a daily multi-vitamin.For more Health articles, visitwww.foxnews.com/health."Nearly two-thirds of the American population is low in vitamin D," he said. "And if it's low, it's a universal risk factor for every bad thing related to your brain, but also to your body, including obesity and cancer Know and optimize your vitamin D level."Fox News Digital reached out to the study researchers for comment.

Three decades after an Iowa news anchor vanished without a trace while on her way to work, a documentary has suggested a new person of interest as authorities aim to solve a case that was previously thought to have gone cold.Brad Millerbernd, the ex-husband of Jodi Huisentruits childhood best friend Patty Niemeyer, was investigated by Iowa police after tips suggested he may have been involved in the 1995 abduction of Huisentruit,according to a newly released ABC News documentary titled "Her Last Broadcast: The Abduction of Jodi Huisentruit."Niemeyer reportedly revealed her ex-husband matched unreleased police suspect sketches, with Millerbernd living approximately three hours from Huisentruits apartment at the time of her disappearance, according to the show."It was a very moving experience," Maria Awes, executive producer of the documentary, told Fox News Digital. "Here you have somebody who was extremely close to Jodi, who was in her very tight circle of friends, grew up with her all of those things. Now, she believes that her own ex-husband may have had something to do with Jodis disappearance. To come forward takes an extreme amount of bravery."FATHERS PURSUIT FOR MISSING DAUGHTER HEATS UP WITH NEW EVIDENCE IN CASE THATS NO LONGER COLDMillerbernd has maintained his innocence throughout the three-decade-long investigation, and has continued to cooperate with authorities, according to the documentary. Fox News Digital reached out to Millerbernd for comment, but did not receive a response. Police would not confirm or deny whether they have looked at him in connection with the investigation.20 YEARS AFTER NATALEE HOLLOWAY VANISHED, SUSPECTS CONFESSION STILL LEAVES QUESTIONS: PI"MCPD continues to investigate Jodi Huisentruits disappearance and hopes that the current information is able to produce useful leads that help bring some closure to the case for the family and our community," Police Chief Jeff Brinkley said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "We have not discussed suspects or persons of interest with the media in the past and do not intend to start doing so now."Huisentruit vanished on the morning of June 27, 1995, as she was on her way to work as a morning show anchor at local news station KIMT-TV,according to Fox 9. She called a coworker to say she was on her way to the station, but never arrived.Following the discovery of her belongings and signs of a struggle outside of her Mason City apartment including a bent key and pair of high heels on the ground near her vehicle police quickly ruled that Huisentruit was abducted. Additionally, a witness reported seeing a white van in the area and hearing a scream.DETECTIVES TRUE CRIME PODCAST HELPS DIG UP BREAKTHROUGH IN CASE THAT HAUNTED FAMILY: DREW AUDIBLE GASPDespite an extensive search, authorities never located Huisentruit and no arrests have been made in her disappearance. She was declared legally dead in 2001."We haven't put this down, we haven't stopped working, we have not stopped pursuing leads and information," Brinkley told Fox 9.Last year, officers searched a property in nearby Winsted, Minnesota, located about 170 miles from Mason City, but did not find anything pertaining to the Huisentruits disappearance. Authorities have not released what led police to the property.SIGN UP TO GETTRUE CRIME NEWSLETTERA 2017 search warrant tied to the investigation and released earlier this year revealed authorities looked to obtain GPS data from two vehicles connected to a friend of Huisentruit, John Vansice, who has reportedly since passed away, according to Fox 9.The warrant was for a 1999 Honda Civic and 2013 GMC registered to Vansice. He was one of the last people to see Huisentruit alive and previously stated he had cooperated with local, state and federal investigators, Fox 9 reported.Despite the countless dead ends, Huisentruits family remains hopeful that their daughter will be found 30 years after she vanished."The pain and anguish felt by us and all who loved Jodi are immeasurable," Huisentruits family said in a statement on the Jodi Hopes Facebook page on the anniversary of her disappearance. "True peace will only be given to us when Jodi is found and justice is served for her. We know it is hard to have hope for resolution after so many years, but we still choose to hope that one day soon it will happen."Fox News Digital's Stephanie Nolasco contributed to this report.

New York Mets star first baseman Pete Alonso wants to introduce a rule that would bring fights into Major League Baseball.Alonso, 30, said that he does not think players should be ejected for charging the mound and fighting."If there is one rule I could change, I don't think people should get ejected after charging the mound and fighting. I think it should be hockey style," Alonso said at a press conference on Tuesday.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe five-time All-Star emphasized the fight would have to be one player vs. one player to avoid injury as much as possible. Alonso said when fights happen and the entire two teams are out on the field in a moshpit, thats when players can get hurt.Alonso also suggested that for a player unwilling to fight if he were charged at by an opposing player, he could yield and effectively opt-out. "I think there's a rule if you want to go out and charge the mound, then you should be able to, but if the pitcher or hitter or whoever charges and if they don't want to fight, they take a knee, and they don't have to fight," Alonso said.NATIONAL LEAGUE WINS MLB ALL-STAR GAME IN HISTORIC FASHION"If someone goes out and take a knee then it is like whatever, then you both go your separate way, that is what I would change about the game."However, in Alonsos proposed rule, if a player decidedly loses the fight, he gets ejected from the game while the winner gets to remain in the game.In the NHL, regardless of who wins the fight, both players receive a five-minute penalty for fighting.In Alonsos scenario, a player could win a fight against a pitcher after being hit by a pitch and then go stand on first base and remain in the game while pitcher, after losing the fight, would depart the game.MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred has made a bunch of rule changes in his tenure, but none so drastic as Alonsos suggested rule.Alonso has been terrific this season for the Mets as he is in the midst of a career year. The star slugger has a .280 batting average with 21 home runs and 77 RBI while leading the National League with 26 doubles.Fox News' Connor McGahan contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Kevin Spacey is demanding the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.On Tuesday, the 65-year-old actor spoke out as the Trump administration continues to face backlash over its handling of documents in Epsteins sex trafficking case. Leaders of the Department of Justice and the FBI have come under fire after closing an inquiry into the case without releasing new files."Release the Epstein files. All of them. For those of us with nothing to fear, the truth cant come soon enough. I hate to make this about me but the media already has," Spacey wrote on X, formerly Twitter.KEVIN SPACEY DOWNPLAYS JEFFREY EPSTEIN CONNECTION AFTER HE WAS NAMED ON FLIGHT LOGIn December 2021, Epstein's former pilot, Lawrence Paul Visoski Jr., named Spacey during testimony for Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell's sex trafficking trial.At the time, Visoski claimed Spacey had once flown on one of Epstein's planes.In January 2024, Spacey was among the celebrities whose names appeared in a trove of unsealed documents relating to Virginia Giuffre's lawsuit against Maxwell.The late disgraced financier had many high-profile connections, including former U.S. presidents, foreign prime ministers and Britain's Prince Andrew, as well as Hollywood stars, leading academics, people in the modeling and fashion industries and other public figures.None of the celebrities named in the court documents, which included Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Jackson, Cameron Diaz, Cate Blanchett and Bruce Willis among others, were accused of any wrongdoing. The stars' names were mentioned by Giuffre and another alleged Epstein victim, Johanna Sjoberg.Though Spacey's name appeared in the documents, Sjoberg denied ever meeting the two-time Oscar winner. However, Spacey's inclusion in the documents was met with additional scrutiny as he has faced several allegations of sexual misconduct in recent years.In July 2020, the Telegraph released a photo of Spacey and Maxwell sitting side by side on thrones belonging to the late Queen Elizabeth and her late husband, Prince Philip. The photo was taken in 2002 in the Throne Room at Buckingham Palace. At the time, the U.K. outlet reported that Spacey and Maxwell had been invited to the Throne Room by Prince Andrew, who was a friend of Epstein.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSGiuffre filed a lawsuit against Andrew in 2021, accusing the British royal of being one of the individuals who sexually exploited her when she was a teenager trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell. Andrew settled with Giuffre in 2022 for an undisclosed sum, agreeing to make a "substantial donation" to her survivors organization. Giuffre died by suicide at the age of 41 in April.In a June 2024 appearance on "Piers Morgan Uncensored," Spacey addressed his photo with Maxwell and explained why his name had appeared on flight logs for one of Epstein's planes.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERThe "American Beauty" actor recalled that he had accompanied former President Bill Clinton on an eight-day humanitarian trip to Africa and South Africa in 2002. At the end of the trip, Spacey said that Clinton had received an invitation to fly to London and give a speech. Spacey told Morgan that after arriving in London, Clinton invited him to visit Buckingham Palace and meet Prince Andrew."I think there were 21 guests of the Clinton Foundation when we went to Africa and South Africa. Something like 18 or so people came to Buckingham Palace that morning," Spacey recalled. "We were wandering through and there were people that brought us into the Throne Room and I sat down and a bunch of people came and sat down next to me and a bunch of pictures were taken and then we went up and we met Prince Andrew. I'd never met him before. I've not seen him since."Spacey explained that in 2015, he began seeing reports and social media posts that he had "flown to Jeffrey Epstein's island" and he had "abused young girls." The actor claimed that he had not known of Epstein until that point."I have since learned who he is, and I have been able to go back and find out that the airplane that we flew on for this humanitarian mission was owned by Jeffrey Epstein. And then learned, Oh, he was actually on some of those flights. And this Maxwell woman was on some of those fights. I didn't know him. I've never spent any time with him. I was with the Clinton Foundation people. That's who I was with."He continued, "This Maxwell woman, she was one of many people that sat down next to me in that throne room. I have no relationship with her. I had no relationship with him. He's not my friend, I'm not a confidante, I've never spent time with him."However, Spacey claimed that he was concerned for Clinton since he claimed there were "young girls" on the flights during their trips with Epstein."I didn't want to be around this guy because I felt he put the president at risk on that trip to South Africa because there were these young girls," he said. "And we were like, Who is this guy? So I will say this there were young girls on those flights.""And that's been out," he continued. "They've talked about it. But here's my point. There's a big difference between not remembering that I met some guy and some woman on a humanitarian trip where my focus was entirely on what we were there to do, and not remembering whether I went to somebody's island. So I never went to Jeffrey Epstein's island."Spacey concluded by telling Morgan that he had never seen Epstein or Maxwell again since the trip and the Buckingham Palace visit.Epstein, who was a convicted child sex predator, died in a prison cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal charges of sex-trafficking minors. In 2022, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for her role in Epstein's sex trafficking ring.In 2017, Spacey was accused of sexual misconduct by several men. Actor Anthony Rapp was the first to come forward, alleging that Spacey made a sexual advance toward him at a party in 1986, when Rapp was 14 and the "The Usual Suspects" star was 27. Spacey has denied all allegations against him.The actor subsequently lost his leading role on Netflix's "House of Cards" and faced a number of lawsuits brought by the alleged victims. In 2022, a federal jury found Spacey not liable for assaulting Rapp in a civil lawsuit that the "Star Trek: Discovery" star filed against him. The following year, Spacey was acquitted of nine charges of sexual assault from four men after a trial in the U.K.

A recently expelled D.C. Council member has won the seat from which he was removed five months ago after being charged with accepting cash bribes.Trayon White is set to reclaim the seat he vacated back in February when members of the D.C. Council voted unanimously to remove him from the position, a first in the city's history.In August 2024, the FBI arrested White after he was accused by federal authorities of agreeing to accept $156,000 in bribes. His trial is scheduled to begin in January 2026. White denies any wrongdoing and is pleading not guilty in the federal case, despite apparent video of him pocketing allegedly cash-stuffed envelopes.DC COUNCIL EXPELS TRAYON WHITE FOLLOWING FEDERAL BRIBERY CHARGEA Justice Department statement from August 2024 alleges that White agreed to accept the bribes in exchange for "using his official position to pressure renewal" of contracts valued at $5.2 million.White was allowed to run in the special election because he had not been convicted of a felony."So we sent a message loud and clear to D.C. City Council that Trayon White is here to stay," White said in his victory speech, according to the Associated Press, which called the race. The outlet added that the troubled ousted council member told the story of his return to office as one of resilience and redemption.DC COUNCIL PROPOSES BILL TO BAN CELL PHONES IN DISTRICT'S PUBLIC SCHOOLSNow, D.C. Council members are facing a choice: Do they allow White to take back his seat or do they expel him again, effectively disregarding the will of Ward 8 voters? They still have time to decide as White will not be sworn into office until after the election results are certified in August. However, according to Axios, the council has the ability to preemptively block White from taking office due to the corruption scandal.Whites story echoes that of controversial former D.C. Mayor Marion Barry in more ways than one. Barry famously staged a historic political comeback after the FBI caught him on camera smoking crack cocaine.White is being represented by Frederick D. Cooke Jr., who also served as Barrys defense attorney, according to the Associated Press. Furthermore, after his two mayoral terms, Barry served as the Ward 8 representative on the D.C. Council, first winning the seat in 2005. He held the position until his death in 2014.

Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White addressed the constant physicality star guard Caitlin Clark continues to face in the league after Clark went down with what appeared to be a groin injury during Tuesday nights win over the Connecticut Sun.Speaking to reporters after the 85-77 win. White was asked about her thoughts on the "physical battle"Clark has faced both throughout the season and in Tuesdays game."Are you trying to get me fined again?" White asked with a laugh, before expanding on her answer.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS"Theres a level of physicality that theyre able to play with against her. I knew it as an opponent, and I see it as her coach. Im not exactly sure why, it just is what it is," she said. "Weve got to help her learn to adjust and use it against them in certain ways. Weve got to find some ways to make it a little easier for her."Admittedly, White added that theWNBAas a whole has seen more physical play on the court than ever before."The level of physicality overall in our league has been at a different level than its been for a long time.CAITLIN CLARK LEAVES FEVER'S WIN IN TEARS AS SHE APPEARS TO SUFFER INJURY"Im sending it to you," she said to the reporters with a wink.Clark appeared to re-injure her groin late in the game, which could sideline the All-Star captain ahead of Saturday nights game. She made a pass, and as she walked off the court appeared to grab at her leg. Clark was on the sideline in tears.In the teams latest update on Wednesday morning, Clark was listed as questionable with a groin injury.

House Oversight Committee Republicans are not ruling out potentially compelling former President Joe Biden and former First Lady Jill Biden to appear before Congress as part of an investigation into whether signs of Biden's mental decline were covered up during his time in the White House."Every option's on the table. We're going to try to get answers. We're going to try to do this rapidly," House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., told reporters when asked if the former president could be brought in for questioning."We'll decide as a committee what steps to take next and who to bring in. But I think right now every option is on the table."Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., was more forceful in his demands for more high-profile witnesses noting he was speaking for himself, rather than the committee.COMER DISMISSES BIDEN DOCTOR'S BID FOR PAUSE IN COVER-UP PROBE: 'THROWING OUT EVERY EXCUSE'"As far as I'm concerned, every member of the Biden administration at this point needs to be subpoenaed. I don't care if they were a secretary. I don't care if they were a janitor working in there. They've all got to come in and answer questions," Donalds said.When asked if that meant the former first lady as well, Donalds responded, "Of course."He and Comer were both present for the closed-door deposition of Anthony Bernal, a longtime aide to Jill Biden who was subpoenaed in the Oversight Committee's probe."Her right-hand man listen, Anthony Bernal was the right-hand man. That's her guy, her chief of staff," Donalds said. "If he came in here and pleaded the fifth, I'm sorry, the former first lady, she's got to come in here and answer questions."FAR-LEFT FIREBRAND SAYS SHE 'NEVER HAD A CONCERN' ABOUT BIDEN'S MENTAL STATE AS HOUSE PROBE HEATS UPComer is investigating allegations thatBiden's former top White House aidescovered up signs of his mental and physical decline while in office, and whether any executive actions were commissioned via autopen without the president's full knowledge. Biden allies have pushed back against those claims.In an interview with The New York Times on Thursday, Biden affirmed he "made every decision" on his own.Bernal is the fourth former White House aide to sit for questioning in Comer's Oversight probe. He and his lawyer left the committee room less than an hour after entering.Comer and Donalds said Bernal argued that invoking the Fifth Amendment was not an admission of guilt, though the GOP lawmakers pushed back on the assertion.Donalds said it was a "stunning" move.So far, three Biden aides have been subpoenaed in the investigation. Like Bernal, former White House physician Dr. Kevin O'Connor invoked the Fifth Amendment. Former deputy Chief of Staff Annie Tomascini was also subpoenaed at her lawyer's request.

No MLB player has hit more home runs leading into the All-Star break than Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh. The catcher's league-leading 38 homers through 94 games puts him on pace to surpass Aaron Judge's historic 62 home run season.Raleigh's breakout 2025 season earned him a first-career All-Star selection. On Monday, Raleigh became the first catcher in history to win the home run derby trophy. He's also the first switch-hitter to claim the derby crown.Raleigh's 18 long balls in the final round surpassed Tampa Bay Rays infielder Junior Caminero's 15 homers.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMRaleigh's historic derby moment was a family-filled event. His younger brother Todd Raleigh Jr. was the catcher, while Todd Raleigh threw pitches to the Mariners slugger."It goes all the way back to him coming home and me forcing him to throw me a ball and hit it in the backyard or in the house or something (he) probably shouldnt be doing," the first-time All-Star said as he recalled moments from his childhood.2025 MLB ALL-STAR GAME: MOST MEMORABLE ALL-STAR MOMENTS THROUGHOUT HISTORYRaleigh later told "The Pat McAfee Show" that his brother had "lived his best life.""He's kind of an awkward teenager obviously like anybody," Raleigh said of his 15-year-old brother. "I had no expectations of him speaking up, but he was pumping me up the whole time. I was kind of surprised."Raleigh spoke to Fox News Digital on Tuesday in the American League clubhouse ahead of the All-Star game and took a moment to reflect on the best moment he'd experienced leading up to Tuesday night."So far, the (home run) derby probably takes the cake," Raleigh said. "Getting to do that with my family was fun."It's far too early to know if Raleigh will defend his home run derby crown in 2026. But, he appeared to be open to the possibility of participating again."I gotta make it there. We'll see. If they invite me back that would be great," Raleigh noted.While Judge's standout 2022 performance still represents the most home runs an AL player has hit in a single season, the New York Yankees star trails Raleigh by just three homers in 2025. The small gap between Raleigh and Judge's homer totals hearkens back to the 1998 home run race between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.McGwire ultimately outlasted Sosa, hitting 70 home runs to the then-Cubs star's 66. Some have wondered if Cal Raleigh and Judge will have a similar competition this season.Raleigh, 28, said he wasn't old enough at the time to remember the details of McGwire's and Sosa's 1998 seasons."I was a little before my time. (I'm a) little too young," Raleigh admitted. "But I watched the 30 for 30 (documentary) on it. Obviously know what it did for baseball, which is awesome. Anything like that that sheds a light to the game is great."While Raleigh did not provide a direct answer about whether he and Judge could produce a similar contest in 2025, he did describe the Yankees outfielder as an "unbelievable" player."He's a week away from 10 more (home runs). What a player," Raleigh said.Raleigh's name has been floated as the potential American League MVP front-runner given his impressive production this year. Raleigh acknowledged the recognition, but said his focus remains on being a team player."It is what it is. It means I'm doing something right, which is good, but at the same time, just focusing on the process and the team first, and then whatever comes after that is great."Raleigh went 1-for-2 in his All-Star game debut with a single in the fourth inning. The National League defeated the American League in the first swing-off tiebreaker in the game's history.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
