Apaches take to Supreme Court last-ditch effort to halt copper mine on sacred site
Law enforcement shouldn't be political.

A group of Apaches filed a last-ditch effort to the Supreme Court to block a copper mining company from destroying a sacred Apache site in Arizona, after the high court denied an effort to block the land transfer last year.

The group of Apache women leading the latest lawsuit argued the justices should immediately halt the land transfer of Oak Flat to a company for mining, claiming the mine would infringe upon the Apaches’ religious liberty rights, pointing to previous high court rulings. The group asked for an immediate stay after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit denied an effort to block the land transfer late Friday.

“In just days or even hours, the federal government plans to complete an illegal land swap, setting in motion the irreversible destruction of a long-protected Native American sacred site that will end core Apache religious practices forever,” the petition reads.

“This Court now has an opportunity—likely its last—to prevent this generational tragedy.”

The petitioners claim the land transfer “violates federal law at every turn,” invoking the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the free exercise clause of the Constitution as reasons that turning the religious site into a mine would harm their right to worship at Oak Flat.

“The United States Government has a tragic history of destroying Apache lives and lands for the sake of mining interests,” the petition reads. “The Apaches simply ask that the land not be transferred beyond federal control and destroyed before the courts (including this Court) resolve their claims.”

In a pair of letters to the Supreme Court after the Apache activists filed their emergency petition, both the Justice Department and lawyers for the mining company urged the high court to deny the bid to halt the land transfer. Both parties claim the land transfer has already occurred and that the Supreme Court intervening in the case would either reverse the transfer or tell the mining company it may not use its newly acquired land pending a full case at the high court.

“This Court should not force Resolution to incur millions of dollars more in unrecoverable losses—and miners in rural Arizona should not once again face threats to their livelihoods—through an administrative injunction when this appeal no longer presents a live case or controversy and raises meritless claims,” Michael Huston, a lawyer for Resolution Copper Mining, said in a letter to the high court.

Massie touts previous Trump endorsement in latest campaign ad
Are they actually going to vote on something real?

Rep. Thomas Massie’s (R-KY) campaign is airing an ad highlighting President Donald Trump’s previous endorsement of the incumbent lawmaker, as he angles to win reelection in the deep red state. 

Massie and Trump have feuded on and off for years over a range of issues, mostly centered on disagreements about fiscal matters, Israel and Jews, and foreign policy. In lieu of their quarrels, Trump backed efforts ahead of the 2026 election to primary Massie, and endorsed his Republican rival, Ed Gallrein, as someone who would more effectively help implement the MAGA agenda in Washington. 

In a new ad, Massie sought to temper the momentum Gallrein might ride from the president’s backing. The Kentucky congressman told voters he and Trump share more in common than the president believes, while branding himself as “one of the few Republicans in Washington who stands up to every president.”

Massie suggested reducing the debt, not single-mindedly endorsing all of Trump’s agenda, would remain his top priority, with his positioning coming after he was one of only two House Republicans to vote against Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act last year, on the grounds that it raised the national debt. 

“Look the truth. I agree with President Trump nearly all of the time. It’s why in the past, I’ve endorsed him, and he’s endorsed me,” Massie said. “But the other truth is, I’m one of the few Republicans in Washington who stands up to every president, including President Trump, when it comes to these big government spending bills. The national debt is now $108,000 for every single American. I’m Thomas Massie, and I approve this message, because reducing that debt always has been and always will be my top priority, period.”

Massie made a similar argument last week. 

“People support Trump, but they also support what he campaigned on,” he told NBC News. “When people support me, they’re supporting the things that Donald Trump campaigned on actually getting done. And when they support Donald Trump, they’re supporting the man they voted for in the last election.”

Trump endorsed Massie’s reelection campaign in 2022, two years after the president denounced the lawmaker’s 2020 bid for opposing a sweeping COVID-10 pandemic relief bill pushed by the White House. 

In addition to more recent squabbles over whether the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill Act was fiscally irresponsible, Massie and Trump have bickered over the extent of executive powers used in foreign conflicts. Massie, a foreign …

UFC’s Dana White says he ‘never’ gets negativity for supporting Trump
What's the administration thinking here?

UFC CEO Dana White said on Monday he has “never had one person” criticize him in public for speaking in support of President Donald Trump.

White became friends with Trump through the president’s love of fighting sports, recalling how they met at a UFC fight at the Trump Taj Mahal in New Jersey. Trump would later ask White to speak at the 2024 Republican National Convention, which White said he accepted despite being advised by “everybody” not to.

White said he was advised not to speak at the RNC because people told him, “Don’t get into politics,” and were predicting Trump would lose the 2024 election. However, White said Trump is “a great friend,” and there was “no way” he wasn’t going to deliver this speech.

“I never get any negativity from it ever. It’s the exact opposite!” White said on Verdict with Ted Cruz. “When I’m out in the streets and I go places, people always come up to me and say, ‘Thanks for —,’ I’ve never, ever had one person walk up to me or yell or say something to me, anything about Trump. 

“And here’s the thing: when I do speak, you don’t ever hear me talk negatively about the other side,” White said. “I tell you why everything they say about this guy is a lie, and he’s not what they say he is. He’s actually a good man who loves this country, cares about people, and I just talk about who he is as a person.”

White also revealed he was “pushing” Trump to conduct podcast interviews on the 2024 campaign trail, one of several factors that contributed to his victory against former Vice President Kamala Harris. One of the podcasts Trump went on was The Joe Rogan Experience.

White said host Joe Rogan tried “so hard” not to involve himself in politics, and added Rogan’s talent as a host stems from being “a good listener” and discussing “interesting” topics.

White said Rogan used to be “very liberal,” but has since shifted his political beliefs “when the world started to lose its mind.” White also said he used to be “liberal,” but “common sense” made him change.

Support for Israel drops as Democrats turn against key US ally: poll
We're watching the same failure loop.

Americans' opinions regarding Israel have dramatically soured in recent years, fueled by a surge in negative views among Democrats and independents, according to a new national poll.
The results of the survey, by NBC News, come amid sharp political debates among Democrats over support for Israel two and a half years after the start of the war between Israelis and Hamas in Gaza.
Just 32% of Americans view Israel positively, with 39% seeing the Jewish state in a negative light, according to the poll, which was conducted Feb. 27-March 2. That's a sea change from three years ago, when Americans held a positive view of Israel by a 47%-34% margin.
Much of that decline in positive views is due to Democrats and independents, according to the survey.
HEAD HERE FOR LATEST POLLS FROM FOX NEWS 
Democrats were divided in 2023, with 34% viewing Israel positively and 35% negatively. Now, the poll indicates just 13% of Democrats hold a positive view of Israel, with 57% seeing it in a negative light.
And independents went from 40%-22% positive-negative to 21%-48%.
But according to the NBC News poll, Republican views of Israel have only declined slightly, from 63%-12% positive-negative in 2023 to 54%-18% now.

The survey, which was conducted as the U.S. and Israel began their strikes on Iran, also indicates Americans are now split on whether they are more sympathetic to Israel or the Palestinians.
Americans, who by a 45%-13% margin were more sympathetic to Israel in 2013, are now divided, with 40% more sympathetic to Israel and 39% more sympathetic to the Palestinians.
There's been a massive switch among Democrats, from more sympathetic to Israel 34%-18% margin in 2013 to more sympathetic to Palestinians by a 67%-17% margin now.
SHARP PARTISAN DIVIDE EMERGES OVER IRAN STRIKE, TRUMP'S STRATEGY: POLLS
Independents went from more sympathetic to Israel by a 37%-10% margin 13 years ago to more sympathetic to Palestinians by a 37%-27% margin now.
But Republicans, according to the poll, stayed much more sympathetic to Israel, from a 67%-8% margin in 2013 to a 69%-13% margin now.
The poll also spotlights a generational divide, with a greater deterioration of positive views and sympathies for Israel among younger Americans.
Roughly 1,200 people were killed during the October 2023 attack by Hamas on Israel, with 251 captured.
Israel's ensuing military campaign in Gaza over the past two and a half years has resulted in more than 72,000 people being killed, according to health officials …

Federal Reserve tapped Robert Hur to help fend off DOJ subpoenas
Ask who never gets charged.

The Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors has enlisted former special counsel Robert Hur to help defend the central bank against Justice Department subpoenas targeting Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, according to court filings unsealed Friday that revealed a federal judge blocked the government’s demands for records.

Hur, a former U.S. attorney who investigated former President Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents, has been working as part of the Federal Reserve’s legal team as the central bank moved to quash subpoenas tied to a criminal investigation into renovations of the Fed’s Washington headquarters.

The filings were unsealed Friday after Chief U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, ruled that the subpoenas issued by federal prosecutors were improper and should be quashed.

Although it’s unclear when Hur first joined the Board of Governors’ legal defense team, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro said Friday her office had been investigating the case since November. The White House in January defended the investigation into Powell after he released a video claiming he was being targeted in an “unprecedented” inquiry based on “political pressure” and “intimidation.”

In a sharply worded 27-page opinion, Boasberg said the government had failed to present evidence that Powell committed any crime and suggested the investigation was driven by political pressure tied to disputes over monetary policy.

“The government offered no evidence whatsoever that Powell committed any crime other than displeasing the President,” Boasberg wrote, adding that there was “a mountain of evidence” suggesting the investigation was meant to pressure Powell to change course on interest rates or resign.

Hur is one of five members of the legal team from King & Spalding representing the Fed’s Board of Governors, alongside partners including Jeffrey Bucholtz, who has previously represented the central bank in litigation. Powell himself is represented separately by attorneys from Williams & Connolly.

Hur rose to national prominence during Biden’s term when he served as special counsel investigating the discovery of classified documents at the then-president’s home and former office that Biden had retained after leaving the vice presidency. His February 2024 …

Justice Department asks Judge Boasberg to reconsider order quashing Powell subpoenas
This looks less like justice and more like strategy.

Lawyers for the Trump administration on Monday asked U.S. District Judge James Boasberg to reconsider his order that quashed grand jury subpoenas of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, appearing to make good on a vow from U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro to appeal the order to a higher court.
In the Justice Department's motion for reconsideration that was submitted Monday, prosecutors argued that the court "applied an incorrect legal standard, erred with respect to certain facts, and overlooked other relevant facts." 
They argued that a subpoena should be allowed when there is even a "reasonable possibility" that the category of materials the government seeks will produce information "relevant to the general subject of the grand jury’s investigation," and even where a subpoena recipient "proposes a plausible theory of an ulterior motive."
EX-JUDGES BLAST TOP TRUMP DOJ OFFICIAL FOR DECLARING ‘WAR’ ON COURTS

The filing, submitted Monday, comes two days after Boasberg blocked a pair of grand jury subpoenas issued to the Federal Reserve Board, concluding that they were merely a "pretext" to pressure the Fed's Powell into lowering interest rates or resigning from the head of the nation's central bank. 
The Federal Reserve Board, DOJ argued Monday, has "never disputed that the subpoenas sought only materials directly related to the subjects of the grand jury’s investigation: the over budget renovations — estimated at over $1 billion, outrageous even by D.C. standards — as well as Chair Powell’s congressional testimony." 
The request comes days after Boasberg issued a ruling blocking Pirro's office from moving ahead with a subpoena of records and testimony related to the investigation of the central bank. He said in the newly unsealed ruling that the Justice Department offered "no evidence whatsoever" that Powell committed any crime "other than displeasing" President Donald Trump.
"Did prosecutors issue those subpoenas for a proper purpose? The Court finds that they did not," he said. "There is abundant evidence that the subpoenas’ dominant (if not sole) purpose is to harass and pressure Powell either to yield to the President or to resign and make way for a Fed Chair who will."
BIDEN-APPOINTED FEDERAL JUDGE RULES TRUMP'S 'THIRD COUNTRY' DEPORTATION POLICY IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL
The ruling came after U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro opened a criminal inquiry into Powell's June 2025 testimony before the Senate Banking Committee centered on the Fed's years-long renovation of its headquarters in Washington, D.C. Powell revealed the investigation publicly …

How to Pass The SAVE America Act? Voting Documents for All!
Transparency shouldn't be controversial.

Can Democrats take “Yes” for an answer?

As the Senate weighs the SAVE America Act, Republicans should help Democrats overcome their objections to this bill.

Racist Democrats like Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., complain that black folks lack photo ID. Democrats insist that expecting supposedly witless or listless blacks to show poll workers photo ID is “Jim Crow 2.0.”

Democrats never offer to give IDs to these invisible legions of undocumented blacks. Imagine if Democrats handed photo ID to these poor, benighted souls: Blacks and others of color could cash checks, jet across America, get paid to shovel snow in New York City, and even vote in states with photo ID rules.

83% of Americans ?support requiring a photo ID ?to vote.
Democrats lie about literally everything.
— Lexi (@LexiMurica) March 15, 2026

Democrats also attack SAVE for requiring birth certificates to register to vote. “Got one of those handy with you, in your purse?” Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., prodded a congressional correspondent. “I doubt it.”

So, Senate Republicans should open the SAVE America Act proceedings by making Democrats vote first on legislation that I would call The Voting Documents for All Act. 

• Any adult US citizen could visit his state’s DMV office and receive a free photo ID card (not a driver’s license).

• The federal government would reimburse states for the cost of each free photo ID card, plus 10%, to encourage their assistance. This would be a funded mandate.

• Likewise, birth certificates for voter registration would be available, free of charge. Right now, Americans can order birth certificates online in all 50 states, through private and government websites. New federal promo codes could chop prices to $0.00.

• Congress would reimburse website owners and state agencies for their foregone birth-certificate revenues. Alternatively, tax credits could help voter-registration applicants recoup their document-acquisition expenses.

• Washington should offer states block grants to underwrite their worthy ways to boost access to election-related free birth certificates and photo ID cards.

• This could be financed from the $2 billion average-annual revenues in the Justice Department’s Assets Forfeiture Fund. This includes ill-gotten gains from drug cartels and other criminal enterprises. This money is earmarked for “law enforcement-related priorities.”

Conveniently enough, distinguishing between U.S. citizens and cartelistas is a public-safety and national-security priority. This would be easier to accomplish if every American could show photo ID, and cartel members could not. The SAVE America Act’s birth-certificate obligation would stymie MS-13 and Tren de Aragua thugs who try to become registered voters.

Democrat hacks, such as Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., call these concerns “voter fraud conspiracy …

BREAKING: Trump Says Chief of Staff Has Cancer  
This feels like a quiet policy shift.

White House chief of staff Susie Wiles has been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer, President Donald Trump announced Monday.  

“Susie Wiles is an incredible Chief of Staff, a great person, and one of the strongest people I know but, unfortunately, she has been diagnosed with early stage breast cancer, and has decided to take on this challenge, IMMEDIATELY, as opposed to waiting,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.  

“She has a fantastic medical team, and her prognosis is excellent! During the treatment period, she will be spending virtually full time at the White House, which makes me, as President, very happy,” Trump continued. Her Strength and her Commitment to continue doing the job she loves, and does so well, while undergoing treatment, tells you everything you need to know about her.”  

Trump called Wiles one of his “closest and most important advisors,” adding that she “is tough and deeply committed to serving the American People. She will soon be better than ever!”  

“Melania and I are with her in every way, and we look forward to working with Susie on the many big and wonderful things that are happening for the benefit of our Country,” Trump said.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt praised Wiles’ strength in a post on X following the news, also calling her “one of the nicest people I’ve ever met.”

Susie Wiles epitomizes what it means to be a strong leader. She is also one of the nicest people I’ve ever met.

Susie led President Trump’s historic 2024 comeback campaign and is now spearheading the most successful administration in history.

Angel mom whose 13-year-old son was executed by illegal gang member urges incoming DHS chief to act
Every delay has consequences.

EXCLUSIVE: California mother and grandmother Angie Morfin, whose 13-year-old son, Ruben, was executed at point-blank range by an illegal alien gang member, shared a message for incoming Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin: "Make sure no other mother has to get the call I did."
"Ruben was just a little boy with dreams of growing up, getting married, and having a family of his own," she told Fox News Digital, adding, "For 34 years I’ve fought to keep his memory alive, so he didn’t die in vain."
She shared that she is hopeful that Mullin, a current Republican senator from Oklahoma who is set to take the reins at DHS at the end of the month, "will continue to listen to Angel Families and stand with us as we fight to make sure no other mother has to get the call I did."
In a recent interview with The American Border Story shared exclusively with Fox News Digital, Morfin said her family remains devastated decades after losing Ruben.
"I cry for him today, like if it was just yesterday," she shared.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT ACCUSED OF ASSAULTING NJ TEEN COULD BE RELEASED UNDER SANCTUARY POLICIES, ICE WARNS
In the winter of 1994, Ruben, a young Hispanic teenager with no gang affiliation, was chased down and shot in the back of the head by Mexican national Ezequiel Mariscal near Orange County, California. Ruben had been walking with a group of friends to a party.  
Morfin said that though her family was living in Oceanside, just north of San Diego, at the time, she had sent Ruben to stay with his grandparents during the holidays over concerns about gangs in their area.
Then one night, just after midnight, Morfin said she got a call.
"I grabbed the phone, and I could hear my mom screaming, ‘They shot Nino, they shot Nino.’ I knew it was my baby because that's what we called him, because he was so small," she said.
Morfin said she and her husband rushed to the hospital.
"It was probably the longest ride of my life. I was scared. I didn't know what I was going to see when I got there," she explained.
Once there, she was made to wait.
"They told me he was dying. That if he made it through the night, that he would be a vegetable for the rest of his life because they had just shot off half of his brain," she recounted.

Trump-aligned law group urges Jim Jordan to probe 'nationwide pattern' of blue-state ‘lawfare’
This affects the entire country.

FIRST ON FOX: A key conservative group is accusing Democrat-run states of launching frivolous lawsuits against the Trump administration with no actual cause, and is calling on Congress to intervene.
America First Legal, a nonprofit founded by Trump advisor Stephen Miller, is urging House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to open a probe into "lawfare" conducted by blue states that it says is part of a larger effort to block President Donald Trump's goals.
"America First Legal Foundation ('AFL') has uncovered a nationwide pattern to subvert the agenda of the Trump administration: Democrat-controlled states have filed lawsuits against the Trump administration, yet in many cases, the states are unable to show any support for their alleged injuries," the group's legal counsel Will Scolinos wrote.
DEMOCRAT AGS SUE TRUMP FOR 'UNCONSCIONABLE' FREEZE ON $6.8B IN K-12 SPENDING
There are over 200 active cases challenging various Trump administration policies right now, according to Lawfare Media's litigation tracker. Dozens of those have been launched by states like California, Colorado, Minnesota and New York.
Scolinos said AFL launched a probe into various blue states' lawsuits — and allegedly found many of them have been filed without concrete evidence to back up the claims they make.
"AFL’s investigation reveals that these Democrat-controlled states are pleading allegations of harm for which there is no corresponding evidence to support their claims," the letter said.
"The fundamental problem is not merely that courts are failing to rigorously enforce standing requirements, but that state attorneys general are filing complaints premised on speculative injuries that their own client agencies cannot substantiate."

The letter said it "raises serious questions about whether these lawsuits are being filed in good faith or are instead designed to obstruct the lawful policies of the Trump Administration through judicial intervention."
Four states that sued the Trump administration over its transgender policies, for example, said "they lacked records" necessary to respond to AFL's inquiries over the basis of those lawsuits, the letter said.
Five of 20 states that joined a lawsuit over the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) getting access to federal Medicaid data to probe whether illegal immigrants were getting health benefits similarly told AFL that it could not provide records it requested, the letter said.

Trump reveals Neal Dunn had terminal diagnosis before treatment: ‘Would be dead by June’
Who benefits from this decision?

President Donald Trump revealed Monday that Rep. Neal Dunn (R-FL) had been diagnosed with a terminal heart disease, but has since been treated and has a renewed outlook on life.

Trump’s comments came at a convening of the Trump-Kennedy Center Board at the White House. Speaker Mike Johnson was seated directly to the president’s right and noted that Dunn’s exact diagnosis had not previously been made public.

As Trump and Johnson were lauding Dunn for staying in his position despite the difficult diagnosis, which had thus far not been public, Trump pressed Johnson, and the speaker said, “I think it was a terminal diagnosis.”

“He would be dead by June,” Trump said in response.

“OK, that wasn’t public but yeah, OK,” Johnson said. “It was grim, that’s what I was going to say.”

Dunn announced earlier this year that he plans to retire at the end of his term. Trump said he was impressed by the Florida congressman for staying in the job.

“Most of them are going to say, ‘Mike I’m retiring immediately.’ That’s the end,” the president said. “He didn’t do that. It really is really impressive.”
