In recent weeks, some public commentary has accused the Department of Justice of defying court orders and insinuated that Emil Boves confirmation will undermine the rule of law. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Department of Justice follows court orderseven when those orders are legally unsound or deeply flawed. And Emil is the most capable and principled lawyer I have ever known. His legal acumen is extraordinary, and his moral clarity is above reproach. The Senate should swiftly confirm him to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.This administration has repeatedly been targeted with sweeping, overreaching injunctions, often issued by ideologically aligned judges in defiance of settled lawincluding orders of the Supreme Court. Time and again, these rulings have been reversed on appeal, and easily so. The pattern is familiar by now: aggressive district court orders grab headlines, only to be walked back when subjected to the slightest judicial scrutiny.Despite this consistent trend, the persistent narrative in the media and in the legal community is that it is the Department of Justice that ignores courts. That is plainly wrong. Disagreements over interpretation do not constitute defiance, any more than does filing an appeal. And, histrionics aside, good-faith disputes over timing and implementation of court orders do not represent insubordinationespecially given the very difficult and novel problems presented by implementing the unprecedentedly overbroad and vague court orders imposed on this administration. The Department of Justice invariably complies with court orders no matter how much it disagrees with the underlying reasoning or the egregiousness of the judicial error. The appellate process has always been the means of securing relief from an erroneous order, and it still is.JUDICIAL NOMINEE SHUTS DOWN 'WILDLY INACCURATE' CLAIMS THAT HE'S TRUMP'S 'HENCHMAN'You will search in vain for any critique of district judges who abuse their power and issue baseless injunctions in the editorial pages of The New York Times, CNN, or even the WSJeven where those injunctions are reversed or stayed on appeal.The same commentators who foment anger over the Department of Justices good-faith efforts to comply with legally unsound court orders are silent when Article III judges overreach and issue rulings that interfere with the Presidents authority and undermine the rule of law.That brings me to my friend and colleague, Emil. The dedicated lawyers of the Department of Justice work tirelessly to comply with court orders and to promote the rule of law. There is no finer example of that dedication than Emil.In a thankless job, Emil expects excellence and courage from every lawyer in the Department, no matter the opposition faced. He pushes our dedicated lawyers to meet the moment and the mission of defending this administration against those who seek to block President Donald Trump from fulfilling his promises to the American people. And he consistently requires the highest level of integrity from all Department employees.Unfortunately, but unsurprisingly, the media has recently amplified slanderous attacks on Emils character based on a foundation of selective leaks, misleading reporting, and falsehoods. I am taking this opportunity to clear up a few of those misconceptions.TOP DOJ OFFICIAL FACES TEST IN SENATE OVER NOMINATION TO BECOME FEDERAL JUDGEFirst, as to the termination of the leaker, it was Attorney General Pam Bondi and I who decided to terminate his employment. It was not Emils decision. And contrary to media spin, the employee was terminated for failing to defend his clientthe United States of Americain open court; he was not dismissed for admitting an error in court.In his courtroom statements, the leaker distanced himself from the Departments position and attempted to undermine the credibility of his own client. That is not zealous representation. That is an unethical dereliction of duty, which no client should be required to countenance. Moreover, Emil has never encouraged lawyers or anyone else to act in defiance of a court order. There was no order to violate at the time of the alleged statements. No injunctive relief had been grantedoral or written. No directive was issued to reverse any executive action. These facts are not in dispute, not even by the leaker. And most critically, after Judge Boasberg did issue an order in the relevant case, the Department fastidiously complied. That is not speculation. That is the explicit position taken by the leaker himself, who signed the governments brief affirming the United States compliance on March 25, 2025.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONThe same kind of distortions are being used to attack the Departments lawful dismissal of the irreparably flawed case against New York Mayor Eric Adams. That decision was reviewed and approved by Department leadership and grounded in sound legal judgment. The judge agreed, granting the governments motion to dismiss.That should end the conversation. But for those who insist on rehashing internal dissent and resignations, it should be obvious that disagreements within the Department do not render a decision unlawful or unethical. To the contrary, Emils integrity was displayed when he himself argued the case in favor of dismissal, even as his former colleagues in SDNY retreated.Before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Emil attested what those lucky enough to work with him already know to be true: he believes deeply in the rule of law, and in the importance of court orders. And what he has done time and again over the course of his career is bring rigor, integrity, and decency to his work.Emil has the backbone for hard cases, the restraint to wield judicial authority judiciously, and the intellect to master complexity. He will decide cases fairly. He will apply the law as written. He will not bend to political pressure. And that is exactly the kind of judge our country needs.Emil is a dedicated public servant, an exemplary lawyer, and a person of quiet strength and deep character.The Senate should reject the smear campaign and vote to confirm him to the Third Circuit. Justice demands nothing less.

This week, Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee will once again be asked to draw the line between what is permissible and impermissible for a Trump nominee, when they decide whether Emil Boves nomination to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals should receive a full Senate vote.Confirming Bove would mean redrawing that line to ignore serious concerns about his truthfulness under oath. I was in the room when he made statements that my colleagues and I understood as threatsmeant to pressure us into signing a motion to dismiss the federal criminal case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Mr. Bove has since denied making any such statements in testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, but those denials do not reflect what actually took place.In February of this year, then-Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove ordered prosecutors in my former office, the Public Integrity Section, to dismiss the bribery case against Mayor Adams. Bove openly admitted in a memorandum that the dismissal was unrelated to the facts and the law.This led to the resignation offive Public Integrity Section prosecutors, including me, to go along with prosecutors from the U.S. Attorneys Office in New York, who also refused the order and resigned.The Public Integrity Section has since beenreduced to less than five prosecutors, meaning the only component of the Justice Departments Criminal Division dedicated to prosecuting domestic public corruption exists almost entirely in name only today.TOP DOJ OFFICIAL FACES TEST IN SENATE OVER NOMINATION TO BECOME FEDERAL JUDGEIn his written responses to members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Bove flatlydeniedthat he ever so much as suggested a threat to me and my colleagues, explaining that during the meeting with our section, "[i]t was never my intention to coerce, pressure, or induce an DOJ attorney through adverse employment actions, threats, rewards, or otherwise to sign the motion to dismiss the charges against Mayor Adams." But by the time of that meeting, itsundisputedthat he had already accepted the forced resignation of the U.S. Attorney in New York, put line prosecutors from that office on administrative leave for not signing the motion, and forced the entirety of the Public Integrity Sections management to resign when it refused to carry out his order. And how does his denial square with hisadmissionthat he generally recalls "[telling us] he didnt want to get anyone in trouble ... so he didnt want to know who was opposed to signing the motion"?Boves nomination would mark a troubling precedent: confirming a nominee who, in my view, gave testimony that was so obviously misleading to the committee and the American public. Thats what makes this so profoundly disturbing. Previous contested judicial confirmation hearings have involved accusations where one nominations credibility was pitted against that of an accuser, or judicial credentials were questioned. But never before has a nominee testifiedin such a demonstrably brazenmannerwith a wink and nod to the Republican committee members.TRUMP NOMINATES FORMER DEFENSE ATTORNEY EMIL BOVE FOR FEDERAL APPEALS COURT VACANCYThere is only one realistic hopeto prevent Boves nomination from moving forwardto a full floor vote, and it rests on the shoulders of Sen. Thom Tillis. TheNorth Carolina Republican, a staunch conservative, has previously demonstrated political courage by speaking for his principles, not his party, on many issues. He believes in "calling the balls and strikes."Sen. Tillispreventedthe confirmation of Edward Martin, the woefully unqualified nominee for U.S. Attorney in the District of Columbia, who used his office to pen threatening,typo-ridden letters to Democratic members of Congress, defense attorneys, and Georgetown University. Bove poses a far graver threat, in that his would be a lifetime tenure to a judicial branch he believes should not be a check on the presidents power.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONMoreover, Trumps latesttusslewith Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society further reveals thathe is no longerlooking for juristswho are conservatives, but rather, loyalists. So,who would be betterto elevate from a federal circuit court to theSupreme Court if Justices Thomas or Alito decided to retire before 2028 than Bove?On the Sunday nightbeforeI sent my resignation letter to Attorney General Bondi (Bove was cc-ed) on Monday, I was clearing out my belongings from my office when I noticed that someone had prominently placed a plaque on our reception desk. It quoted Abraham Lincoln: "If you want to test a mans character, give him power."Bove served as line prosecutor earlier in his career he knows the prosecutors code.But, in my experience, it appears thatonce he had a whiff of power,Bovewas willing to abuse it. With his smug testimony, Bove has essentially called the Republicans'bluff, believing that Sen. Tillis and the others wont have the courage to voteagainst him.Citizens of all political persuasions should hope that Sen. Tillis shows the courage and character that Bove lacks by voting no on his confirmation.

Progressive "Squad" leader Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., opened up about her breakfast with democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday, as well as ICE activity in her district.Ocasio-Cortez, a progressive who is now seen as a leading voice in the Democratic Party as well as a possible 2028 presidential candidate, met with Mamdani on Wednesday morning at a "Communication and Organizing Skillshare Breakfast."The congresswoman told Fox News Digital that she thought the meeting with Mamdani and other Democrats was "really positive.""Its just important for folks to meet people in person, kick the tires and talk between themselves," she said.AOC WELCOMES SOCIALIST MAMDANI TO NATION'S CAPITAL AS DEM LEADERS WITHHOLD ENDORSEMENTSThis comes as many Democratic leaders, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., have yet to endorse Mamdani, despite his winning the Democratic mayoral nomination. Several top Democrats have criticized Mamdani for refusing to condemn the use of the phrase "globalize the intifada," which is seen by many as calling for violence against Jewish people.Mamdani recently said he would not use the phrase and would "discourage" others from using it as well, but did not fully condemn the slogan.Along with Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Ocasio-Cortez was one of the first national leaders to endorse Mamdanis campaign before his surprise upset against former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.Before the Wednesday meeting, Ocasio-Cortez told reporters she was eager for people to meet him "face to face" and "hear what he has to say about making New York affordable for working people," while championing issues like rent freezes, affordable childcare and grocery prices.'EXISTENTIAL THREAT': JEWISH LEADERS WARN OF NYC 'MASS EXODUS' IF ZOHRAN MAMDANI WINS IN NOVEMBERIn response to Democrats who are still on the fence about Mamdani or who have criticized his policies, Ocasio-Cortez told Fox News Digital, "I always think that the best approach to these things is to hear it directly from the person themselves instead of, you know, whatever the media static is or whatever it may be.""If anyone has any reservations, you know, I think it's important to meet and hear it straight from the source and make a determination from there," she added.Regarding recent ICE immigration enforcement activity targeting illegal gang members in her district, Ocasio-Cortez said, "If you are engaged in violence, if you are hurting women, children, of course, you're subject to crackdowns from the federal law and deportation."PROGRESSIVE DEM REP FACES BACKLASH FOR CALLING ICE 'NAZI THUGS' WHILE DEFENDING MS-13 GANG MEMBERHowever, she went on to claim that "the problem is that a lot of ICE activity is wasting resources not on people who are actually hurting and engaged in violence, but they're raiding kitchens and people who have been doing hard, honest work for years, paying taxes, being productive members of society.""We shouldn't be wasting our resources going after our neighbors," she went on. "Everyone needs to be held accountable to the law. If you hurt somebody, you hurt somebody, that's the way that it is. And if you're undocumented, and you hurt someone, you know, that puts you on the track of deportation."

California authorities are investigating a possible surrogacy scam after they rescued 21 children linked to a Los Angeles-area couple.Fifteen children taken from the couple's home as well as an additional six children discovered living elsewhere are now under the care of a child-welfare agency. The children were between the ages of 2 months and 13 years old, The Associated Press reported.LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT ARRESTED FOR ATTEMPTING TO SMUGGLE DRUGGED CHILD ACROSS SOUTHERN BORDERThe children's legal parents are believed to be 38-year-old Silvia Zhang and 65-year-old Guojun Xuan, according to AP."We believe one or two were born biologically to the mother," Arcadia Police Lt. Kollin Cieadlo said. "There are some surrogates who have come forward and said they were surrogates for the children."GUATEMALAN NATIONAL INDICTED FOR ALLEGEDLY SMUGGLING TEEN GIRL INTO THE USAuthorities were tipped off after the couple was arrested earlier this year when a hospital reported that their baby had a traumatic head injury. However, neglect charges were not formally pursued, according to Arcadia police.Cieadlo said Zhang had what appeared to be legitimate birth certificates for the many children which list her as their mother, and the duo had told police that they "wanted a large family," according to AP.FIVE ILLEGALS CHARGED IN ALLEGED MARITIME HUMAN SMUGGLING ATTEMPT THAT LEFT CHILD DEAD"I'm not familiar with how the surrogacy laws work," Cieadlo said. "We need to do a much deeper dive."Los Angeles TV stations quoted several women who claimed to be surrogate mothers for Zhang and Xuan, according to AP.A company was previously registered at the couple's address called Mark Surrogacy Investment LLC. The business license was terminated last month, AP reported, citing business records with the California Secretary of State.Arcadia Police and the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

CNN anchor Dana Bash refused to read a disparaging reference to her network while quoting a Truth Social post from President Donald Trump on Tuesday.Trump's Truth Social post said, "It is very important that all Republicans adhere to my Recissions [sic] Bill and, in particular, DEFUND THE CORPORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING (PBS and NPR), which is worse than CNN & MSDNC put together. Any Republican that votes to allow this monstrosity to continue broadcasting will not have my support or Endorsement."Bash read the whole thing aloud on "Inside Politics," except for the phrase "which is worse than CNN & MSDNC put together." Instead, she said, "I'm not even going to read that," and skipped it.TRUMP THRASHES CNN AS GUTLESS LOSERS FOR COVERAGE OF US STRIKES ON IRANBashs comments came as the U.S. Senate was set to vote on President Donald Trumps $9 billion rescission package, a bill set to cut over $1 billion from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), the government-backed funding arm for NPR and PBS.Trump has threatened to pull federal funding for NPR and PBS and signed an executive order to slash taxpayer funds for the organizations in May.The president has also repeatedly attacked CNN, saying in February, "Nobody watches CNN anymore, because they have no credibility."Earlier this month, Trump revealed that he and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem were looking into ways to prosecute CNN for its reporting on an app that allows users to track ICE agents. He added the network could face prosecution for "having given false reports on the attack in Iran," after it claimed U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities "did not destroy" the countrys nuclear program.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREBash has pushed back on Trump in the past on her show as well, addressing some of his comments against CNN on air.Speaking about border numbers dropping, Trump said in April, "Well, they get out, but the fake news, like CNN over here, doesn't want to put them out because they dont like putting out good numbers because I think they hate our country, actually.""I just want to say for the record, since we heard President Trump say in the Oval Office that CNN hates our country. CNN does not hate our country. That should go without saying. Ive been here for 32 years, and I see a rhetorical device in him trying to to say such a thing," Bash said in response.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

The Federal Communications Commission has long forbidden licensees from using the airwaves allotted by the federal government to broadcast obscene, indecent or profane content.The rules are very easy to understand. Lenny Bruce and George Carlin did a public service when they made comedy schtick out of the generally agreed-upon standards for broadcast content.Every broadcaster in America got the standards hammered into them before they took to the air.In 35 years, Ive never had a complaint about breaching this rule. I dont know any broadcaster who has. Because the rules are pretty much common sense about language that doesnt merely offend, but which usually is intended to simply shock. Before there was "clickbait" there were the "seven dirty words,"precursors to "clickbait."BROADCAST BIAS: MEDIA COVERAGE OF NPR LAWSUIT AGAINST TRUMP HIDES WHAT PUBLIC MEDIA REALLY ISThere isnt a reader of this column who doesnt know some, if not all, of the trip wire terms. Similarly, there isnt an elected official in the land who uses the forbidden language in paid advertising. Thats because they know it wont be cleared for broadcast. Most of them also think the use of obscene, indecent or profane language will lose, not gain votes.It is also understood that most adults and certainly the vast majority of teens routinely let loose with a phrase that would be condemned if aired by a licensee. In the not-so-distant past, however, candidates would never let the language slip their lips in a public event or most private settings.That day is now past.This week California Governor Gavin Newsom a skilled communicator whatever you think of his policies let loose with the "MOAP" the mother of all profanities, not least because it includes the word "mother."That Californias governor did so on a podcast and not in public tells you he knows the rules.Applying the term to podcaster, Joe Rogan, as the governor did could have been a calculated olive branch to the most popular podcaster. It certainly was a conscious decision, not the "excited utterance" of the sort that makes it into court records.The Federal Rules of Evidence provide for an "excited utterance" as an exception to the bar of hearsay evidence, and is admissible to prove the truth of the statement itself.And Governor Newsom is hardly alone. A growing number of public officials and legions of public figures have almost no filters on their public utterances. The very few filters that remain are still so disgusting as to not even pass the "Im trying to impress with my casual profanity" bar because they carry a real political price.They do not carry a price for comics and podcasters. The reverse in fact. Casual use of the FCCs forbidden fruit is actually a branding mechanism and serves thus on both left and right wing podcasts.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONIt would be a very good thing for a pollster or ten to test the publics views of profane, obscene or indecent speech. Candidates and the attention-addicted seem to have concluded that there is no downside to the use of such terms.My guess is that there is still a cost and that the new approach impacts the dead center of American politics, with both blue and red America reluctant to socialize the shocking."Prude" or "Victorian" are thought by many to be insults, but when applied to those who simply object to the coarsening of the countrys discourse, such designations are compliments.There are few if any people who dont slip into obnoxious, vulgar or profane speech, which is still instantly regretted by most normal folks if uttered within hearing distance of kids, especially those from toddlers to pre-teens (who have many superpowers including a capacity to recall every phrase used by parents and relatives.)For some reason, folks on the left side of the spectrum seem convinced that the causal use of the formerly forbidden is now a plus. Doubtful. But it would be useful to have evidence that there is no upside and some downside if only a few percentage points.Hugh Hewitt is a Fox News contributor, and host of "The Hugh Hewitt Show," heard weekdays from 3 pm to 6 pm ET on the Salem Radio Network, and simulcast on Salem News Channel.

A healthier gut could start with one letter.Some medical experts recommend using the "5R approach" to help restore the guts biodome, which may improve mood, reduce inflammation and alleviate some chronic health conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and autoimmune disease.First coined by the Institute for Functional Medicine in Washington, the plan focuses on five components of gut healing to help restore overall digestive health.'WESTERN DIET' BLAMED FOR GROWING RISK OF GI CANCERS AMONG YOUNG ADULTSThese include removing toxins and harmful triggers, replacing depleted digestive enzymes, reinoculating "good" bacteria in the gut, repairing the gut lining and rebalancing lifestyle.Dr. Sydne Ford-Norton, a board-certified family medicine physician and co-founder of Spark Performance and Wellness in Atlanta, Georgia, said the 5R approach has helped her patients boost their energy levels, reduce bloating and improved bowel movements within a month.Poor diet, certain medications, environmental exposures and food sensitivities can all disrupt the gut microbiome, physicians told Fox News Digital.This can lead to symptoms like gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, irritable bowel and joint pain.'COFFEE ENEMA' SOCIAL MEDIA TREND SPARKS HEALTH CONCERNS AMONG DOCTORSThe condition can also cause the cell lining in the gut to "leak" poorly digested food particles and inflammatory cells into the bloodstream, triggering inflammation and autoimmune reactions."The GI tract is the biggest immune organ of the body," Dr. Joel Evans, chief of medical affairs at the Institute for Functional Medicine, told Fox News Digital in an interview."When you have problems with your gut, not only do you not feel good, but you end up with problems with your immune system, which can lead to autoimmune disease."Jess M. Luvano, M.D., an Atlanta gastroenterologist and spokesperson for the American Gastroenterological Association, confirmed the role that gut balance plays in overall health."What we eat affects how we feel, from the microscopic level where it promotes cellular health, to the balance of our gut microbiome with our own homeostasis," he told Fox News Digital."Providing our gut and our microbiome with the right forms of energy and avoiding pro-inflammatory agents such as fried and fatty foods, alcohol, tobacco and ultraprocessed foods is a key component for good gut health."Dr. Alan Weiss, medical director of Annapolis Integrative Medicine in Maryland, agreed there is "no question" when it comes to guts influence on overall health."Your GI tract has about 80% of your bodys immune tissue in it, and your gut produces about 85% of the bodys neurotransmitters," Weiss told Fox News Digital.The 5R approach relies on the following essential steps to restore a healthy gut balance.Removing stressors, foods and toxins considered to be inflammatory triggers is the first step, according to Ford-Norton.These typically include gluten, dairy, sugar and processed foods. Testing can be performed to detect any food sensitivities or allergies.This component involves replacing depleted digestive enzymes, vitamins and minerals."A lot of people are not producing the enzymes that are needed to properly break down food and get the nutrients we need," Ford-Norton said.Reinoculation involves introducing good bacteria to the gut through prebiotics and probiotics."If you go back in time, people knew that fermented foods were important," Ford-Norton noted. "As weve gotten more busy in society and moved away from eating a more natural diet, we stopped eating those foods and replaced them with processed foods."TWO OF THESE FRUITS A DAY CAN BOOST GUT HEALTH, FIGHT CANCER RISK, DOCTOR SAYSThe expert encourages people to get their prebiotics through food rather than a separate supplement.Fiber-rich foods, as well as fermented foods like sauerkraut and kimchi, are rich sources ofese nutrients, she advised.Repairing the gut lining is essential to improving nutrient absorption and reducing inflammation."Inflammation is the underlying imbalance that leads to most of the complex chronic diseases in the population, and then it affects our emotional well-being through the gut-brain connection," Evans said.In most cases, Ford-Norton noted, the gut experiences some degree of harm perhaps from medications, such as antibiotics, or chronic stress.She typically prescribes omega-3 fatty acids, the amino acid L-glutamine, zinc supplements, and anti-inflammatory herbs such as aloe vera to repair the gut lining.Eating foods rich in omega-3s, including chia seeds, hemp seeds and walnuts, can also be helpful.Its important to check with a physician before taking supplements to avoid any interactions with underlying conditions, Ford-Norton added.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTERRebalancing is "the key component that a lot of people miss," according to Ford-Norton."A lot of people want to just take supplements, [and] feel better without their sleep."To rebalance, the doctor recommends getting seven to nine hours of sleep each night and using stress management tools such as yoga, meditation and walks."Its all about rebalancing your emotions, your nervous system and your digestive system its all playing together," she said.When implementing 5R, Ford-Norton said it is important not to skip any portion."Ive seen so many people who do the elimination diet, but they dont do the Replace or Reinoculate component, so they have an incomplete treatment," she told Fox News Digital.Evans and Ford-Norton agreed that while the 5R approach is not a guaranteed cure for health conditions, they have seen improvements in many patients symptoms and in some cases, reversal of chronic diseases.For more Health articles, visitwww.foxnews.com/healthIt is important to perform the approach under the guidance of a trained practitioner, they advised.Weiss noted that while the 5R approach is a good resource, it is also vital to see a doctor to rule out infections or other diseases that could contribute to a persons symptoms.

July Fourth marked 249 years since the 13 American colonies rejected a British monarch and embraced freedom. But as we enter the first days of our 250th year on this Earth, it feels like were moving in the wrong direction.The Declaration of Independence was a bold (though clearly never fully realized) assertion of equality and democratic ideals. Thomas Jefferson wrote that governments derive "their just powers from the consent of the governed" the people of the United States would decide our own fate, not be anyones subjects.But in the past six months all three branches of government have done serious damage to those ideals. And in just the last few weeks weve seen our government repudiating the core values of the Declaration of Independence."For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever."The animating idea behind the American Revolution and the Constitution that eventually emerged was that people were in charge through representatives. President Donald Trump has not suspended our legislatures, but he has moved to sideline them and assume the power to legislate for himself.THE UNWINNABLE WAR AMERICA'S FOUNDING FATHERS FOUGHT AND WON CHANGED HUMAN HISTORY FOREVERLast week alone saw the final endgame for USAID, dismantled by the president despite congressional authorization. The Department of Education is refusing to distribute billions of congressionally appropriated dollars to state schools. And the administration sued Los Angeles for refusing to use its own resources to aid ICEs violent deportation arrests. In just the last few weeks, the Department of Justice charged a member of Congress after an oversight visit to an immigration detention facility and federal agents handcuffed Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., for asking Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem questions at a press conference."He has obstructed the Administration of Justice... He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone..."We have no rights if the president is not bound to follow the law, which is why the founders recognized the importance of an independent judiciary.Yet President Trump has brazenly broken laws and violated the Constitution. Numerous lower court judges, including those appointed by the president himself, have excoriated DOJ lawyers for stonewalling their orders and violating the basic due process protections guaranteed by the Constitution. In some cases, the administration has appeared to openly defy the courts, like when they refused to stop deportations to a torture prison in El Salvador.IN A SEA OF IMPERFECT VOICES, I HEARD THE ANTHEM AND THE SPIRIT OF A NATIONMore alarming, Congress and the Supreme Court majority seem eager to help. Two weeks ago, President Trumps former defense attorney and current senior DOJ official, Emil Bove, received a friendly hearing from the Senate Judiciary Committee considering his nomination to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. This despite a whistleblower describing him openly contemplating telling courts "f--- you." "For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences."The founders were aggrieved by Britain hauling people away from their communities on specious charges. Yet here we are again.Although the Supreme Court prevented the administration from sending more people to El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison under the Alien Enemies Act, they have allowed 238 Venezuelans, three-quarters with no criminal record, to languish there since March. And just two weeks ago, the court blessed the deportation of others to countries theyve never set foot in without a chance to challenge that action."He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures."Freedom is hard to come by when those in power can sic the military on the people. The colonists kicked out the British for this offense, yet President Trump federalized the California National Guard without the consent of the California government, then brought in active-duty U.S. Marines, and then even more Marines after the questionable justification of civil unrest was over.TRUMP CHOSE COUNTRY OVER COMFORT JUST LIKE THE FOUNDING FATHERS ONCE DID"He has... sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance."The singular hallmark of this administrations first six months has been the use of government power to harass the presidents perceived enemies.The administration escalated its war on Harvard University. It forced the resignation of the president of the University of Virginia under threat of federal funding cuts. President Trump called for legal action against the New York Times and CNN for their reporting on the Iran bombing campaign that contradicted the presidents preferred story. Secretary Noem called for an investigation into CNN for reporting on a public ICE-tracking app. And by withholding approval of a merger, the administration got Paramount to pony up $16 million to his interests to settle a thoroughly meritless lawsuit over "60 Minutes" editorial decisions.All that was in just one week.If President Trump and his allies are going to repudiate the Declaration of Independence, then we need to use the 250th year of our country to peacefully but fiercely embrace the revolutionary spirit.We would hardly be the first to take those values of equality and freedom and challenge America to do better. At Seneca Falls, the delegates calling for womens equality modeled their Declaration of Sentiments on the Declaration of Independence.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONDr. Martin Luther Kings most famous speech, delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, lodged its dream in the words of the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal." The government rang in this July 4th by testing our commitment to our nations founding ideals of equality and government of, by and for the people. But that ideal is still worth fighting for peacefully in the courts, at the ballot box and in the streets. Not to restore any of the flawed institutions that came before and during this administration, but to build a more just version of America that is truer to its ideals.

In August 2024, Kai Trump, the granddaughter of President Donald Trump, made the announcement that she verbally committed to play college golf at the University of Miami.Trump will enroll in 2026 to continue her golf career, something that has been a passion for her ever since she picked up a club at two years old.But while Trump has many different hats she wears, including content creation for her millions of followers on social media, make no mistake: The goal is to be a professional golfer.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"Yeah, it is. 100%," she told Fox News Digital, while also discussing her NIL partnership with Accelerator Active Energy on Tuesday.Trump still has one year of high school left before she can get to Miami to help the Hurricanes on the course. And she knows what she needs to do to prepare for that.BRYSON DECHAMBEAU ADMIRED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP'S GOLF GAME"Just playing a lot of events, just gaining experience," Trump explained. "But also practice. If I have two hours, Im not gonna hit a few balls, go on my phone and scroll. No, Im going to take full-on advantage with the time I have on the course."I think thats going to get me to the next level for sure, as well as just training in the gym, getting stronger and playing more rounds."In turn, Trump chose Miami because she believes it will help her reach that ultimate goal of playing on a professional tour."The more golf I play, the better Ill do. Getting experience. Miami gave me a great opportunity, and Im really looking forward to that," she said.Trump also understands how much of a balance being a student-athlete will be at that level, especially when it comes to her other passions. But she says golf is the top priority the second she steps on campus.And when she's on the course, Trump gets into this competitive state that she feels "you can't really teach.""I dont know, it might just be a family gene or something," she said, smiling. "Yeah, on the course, thats something you cant really teach. But I just have a very competitive side to me, especially having brothers and a big family. You have to be competitive sometimes."If Trump wishes to see those pro dreams fulfilled, being competitive is a necessity as she looks ahead to that next step in a golf career she hopes will be on a tour one day.PARTNERING WITH ACCELERATORBeing a college athlete in today's NCAA means having the ability to profit off your brand, and Kai has already developed quite the following through her social media and content creation passions.In turn, she struck an NIL partnership with Accelerator Active Energy, becoming the brand's first golf NIL partner, while also being an equity partner.Accelerator Active Energy is the brand that earned acclaim for launching "The Livvy Fund" with former college gymnastics champion Livvy Dunne to support women's college athletes. And while Dunne is an equity partner, so is Kansas City Chiefs superstar Travis Kelce.A presidential-themed video, in which Kai addresses "fellow Americans and content creators," announced the move, which she could not be more excited for."It's pretty cool, especially being partners with such great athletes and being up there too with them," she said.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
