President-elect Donald Trump's first Department of Education (DOE) secretary, Betsy DeVos, has been floated as one of the potential candidates for the position again. However, if she does not get the job, DeVos has some ideas about who would be a good fit to carry the mantle Trump started in 2017. "There's a whole host of Republican governors who have led on issues around at K-12 education, in particular, and in other cases, higher education," DeVos told Fox News Digital in an interview. "They have great backgrounds and could do a great, great job in carrying out the policies of a second Trump administration. Which I believe, as President Trump has said, should definitely…

President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chair spoke to "America's Newsroom" on Tuesday and told host Dana Perino that the legacy media's status quo needed to change. "Jeff Bezos just recently did an op-ed where he said that Americans don't trust the news media. He said now they're the least trusted of all. And I think he's speaking a lot of truth there. So I think the status quo, particularly when it comes to legacy media, needs to change," Carr said. Trump tapped Carr, who is currently the senior Republican member of the FCC, to lead the FCC on Sunday. Perino asked Carr what the agency can do to help legacy media. "There's …

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - As Kirk Cameron and several of his Christian friends helped premiere his new children's show last week, they also weighed in on who they think President-elect Donald Trump should pick to lead the Department of Education, deeming it an important choice for parents and children alike, or whether it should even exist. Some of the famous figures walking the green carpet at the premiere of the Christian-themed "The Adventures of Iggy and Mr. Kirk" last Thursday agreed that the 2024 election was a referendum on the "wokeness" parents were seeing in the media, entertainment, and schools. They wanted to see more change come to the Department of Education when T…

NEW YORK – Daniel Penny's defense team called a number of character witnesses to the stand Tuesday, including two Marine sergeants who served him, his mother, his sister and other friends – all of whom praised his character and integrity as he fights charges of manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide for the subway chokehold death of Jordan Neely. Penny, 26, faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted on the top charge of manslaughter. He also faces a lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide for the death of Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with a history of mental health outbursts, drug abuse and criminal behavior, some of which took place on the subway. No…

New York prosecutors are requesting a stay until at least 2029 in New York v. Trump, as the president's defense attorneys prepare to move to dismiss the case entirely.

Prosecutors had asked for the pause in proceedings, which they said would allow them to better evaluate the impact of Trump’s new stat…

Illinois’ Democratic attorney general and a court-appointed monitor are among those warning Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson that his administration’s proposed cuts to police resources may land the crime-wracked city in litigation.

Zinke said a short-term bill that kicks the fiscal year (FY) 2025 government spending fight into early next year could impede Trump’s goal of immediately implementing his agenda in the first 100 days of the new administration. "You’ve always heard the first 100 days is extremely important, and it is. But to be bogged down in the first 100 days dealing…
