The legal battle over abortion pills escalated to the Supreme Court on Saturday, as the manufacturer of mifepristone filed an emergency request warning a lower court ruling is already causing "immediate confusion and upheaval" across the country. Danco Laboratories is asking the high court to quickly block a 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision that blocked mail-order access and reinstated in-person requirements for the drug, arguing the ruling is disrupting access and creating nationwide uncertainty about legality. The ruling directly affects the distribution of mifepristone, Danco’s primary product. Mifepristone is one of two drugs commonly used in medication abortions. The application was directed to Justice Samuel Alito, who handles emergency matters from the 5th Circuit and can either act on his own or refer the request to the full court. The Supreme Court could act at any time. ABORTION PILL MIFEPRISTONE SPARKS NEW PRO-LIFE DEBATE AS SOME DOCTORS STRESS SAFETY C...

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito pushed back on claims this week that ending deportation protections for Haitian migrants was racially motivated, pressing an attorney to explain how that argument works when the policy has been applied broadly to migrants from many countries. "You have a really large — you have a really broad definition of who’s White and who’s not White," Alito, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, said during oral arguments, challenging a claim leveled by the migrants’ lawyer that the Trump Department of Homeland Security (DHS) intentionally targeted non-White migrants when it decided to terminate their temporary protected status (TPS). The exchange came as the Supreme Court weighed a high-stakes case over the Trump administration's authority to end TPS protections for tens of thousands of Haitian and Syrian migrants.  The high court's decision could strip their legal protections and have similar implications for hundreds of thousands ...

Fresh off his viral bout with Rep. Rosa DeLauro , D-Conn., EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin engaged in another heated exchange with Rep. Robert Menendez Jr., D-N.J., during a Tuesday session and afterward appeared to make a cryptic reference to the congressman's father, who was imprisoned for corruption. Zeldin and Menendez Jr. sparred over the agency’s policy changes, which the Democratic lawmaker said are exacerbating climate change and related costs, as well as former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s tenure and government waste, as Menendez became increasingly frustrated with the administrator.

Longtime Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn accused Democrats of jeopardizing American lives amid heightened threats by supporting sanctuary policies and allowing the Department of Homeland Security to remain unfunded. In an interview with Fox News Digital, Cornyn decried the Democrats, saying, "This is just another manifestation of the sort of defund police mentality on the left." The comments come amid heightened national concern over public safety threats following what appeared to be another attempted assassination targeting President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner Saturday.  There is also widespread concern over violent crimes involving illegal immigrants in communities across the country.

Rep. Ilhan Omar , D-Minn., is being roasted online for a brutal resurfaced video of her misreading World War II as "World War Eleven" during a Capitol Hill news conference. Omar, the first Somali American member of Congress, made the error during her opening remarks at a Democratic news conference last year on the reintroduction of the Neighbors Not Enemies Act. The bill, which did not pass, was aimed at opposing President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement, particularly his invocation of the Alien Enemies Act. The congresswoman railed that the "last time the Alien Enemies Act was invoked it was used to detain and deport German, Japanese, Italian immigrants during World War Eleven." JEFFRIES CALLS TRUMP 'DUMBEST PERSON EVER' TO SIT AT 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE She quickly corrected herself, saying, "Oh, two," and laughing. As Omar’s district faces increased scrutiny amid a massive federal fraud probe largely involving the Somali immigrant ...

FIRST ON FOX:  The Trump administration is stepping up its crackdown on fraud and " ghost students ," launching a real-time fraud detection tool for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), Fox News Digital learned. "Instead of student aid and education grants going to students who deserve it, corrupt Democrats and the inept bureaucrat class of the Biden Administration allowed it to flow straight into the pockets of fraudsters for years," a spokesperson for Vice President JD Vance, who President Donald Trump recently tapped as the administration's fraud czar, told Fox News Digital.
