Washington — A member of Maine's House of Representatives is asking the Supreme Court for emergency relief after she was censured for criticizing the state for allowing transgender athletes at public high schools to participate in girls sports.

Laurel Libby, a Republican who represents the state's House District 90, asked the high court to issue an injunction that would require the chamber's clerk to count her votes. She argued that her constituents are being disenfranchised as a result of the punishment imposed on her for refusing to apologize...

Senior U.S. District Judge Claude M. Hilton on Wednesday dismissed criminal charges against Henrry Villatoro Santos, a Virginia man accused of being a regional leader of the violent MS-13 gang, clearing the way for expedited deportation proceedings.

Earlier this month, the Justice Department asked the court to drop the charges, indicating the government planned to deport Villatoro Santos. A U.S. marshal from the Fugitive Task Force was in the courtroom, suggesting Villatoro Santos could be transferred into immigration custody after the hearing...

CIA Director John Ratcliffe said Wednesday that a restructuring was underway at President Donald Trump's direction to eliminate "well-documented politicization" of the agency.

Trump joked during a meeting of his Cabinet secretaries on Wednesday that perhaps Ratcliffe was the only one "who's not allowed to talk about the great job he's done," given the classified nature of the Central Intelligence Agency's work.

"At your direction, the CIA has deployed our unique covert action, authorities in various places and continents, to successfully advance...

EXCLUSIVE: WASHINGTON — Vice President JD Vance said the first 100 days of the Trump administration were about making changes "very quickly," but the next 100 days will require Congress and international partners to "step up to the plate."

Vance spoke about the opportunities he sees ahead to "juice the economy" and end the war between Ukraine and Russia during an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital Wednesday — Day 101 of the Trump administration — in his office in the West Wing of the White House.

"The first 100 days is — you’re almost...

Rep. Gabe Evans, R-Colo., who snagged an endorsement from President Donald Trump this week, is firing back at Colorado Democrats following a series of "People's Town Halls" that went off the rails during the April congressional recess, as intra-party tensions and strange songs took center stage.

"While Democrats goof off and sing songs, Congressman Gabe Evans is working hard and fighting to make Colorado a better and safer place to live, work, and raise a family," Evans' spokeswoman said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

Elon Musk received a round of applause from President Donald Trump's Cabinet as he prepares for a planned exit from his role at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

"You have been treated unfairly," Trump said to Musk during a Cabinet meeting Wednesday. "But, the vast majority of people in this country really respect and appreciate you. And this whole room can say that very strongly. It's really been a tremendous help. You opened up a lot of eyes as to what could be done. And we just want to thank you very much."

"You're invited to stay...

"We're talking with the White House about our next meeting, and they may be hosting us. We'll see what happens," Rep. Aaron Bean, R-Fla., told Fox News Digital on Tuesday.

Washington — The Senate is expected to vote Wednesday on a measure aimed at blocking President Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs amid anxiety over how the wide-ranging tariffs could disrupt the U.S. economy.

The resolution, led by Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, would terminate the April 2 national emergency that the president is using to impose the tariffs, effectively blocking the sweeping levies on foreign imports.

But the measure almost certainly won't be taken up in the GOP-controlled House, making...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended the Trump administration’s decision to send an accused MS-13 gang member back to his native country of El Salvador — and said the U.S. is seeking other countries to do the same.

"I say this unapologetically: We are actively searching for other countries to take people from third countries. So we are active, not just El Salvador," Rubio said Wednesday during a cabinet meeting at the White House. "We are working with other countries to say, ‘We want to send you some of the most despicable human beings to your...

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced the creation of an Office of Parental Rights in the Sunshine State that will lend legal muscle to help parents fight for the rights they've been granted by God.

Uthmeier pointed out during remarks on Tuesday that "it is not the role of the government to raise kids," but that the role is parents' "God-given right." He said that "parents have the God-given rights to raise their kids the way they deem appropriate."

President Donald Trump defended the deportation of illegal alien and alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia during a fiery interview with ABC, pointing to a photo he shared on social media clearly showing the notorious gang's name tattooed across Abrego Garcia's knuckles.

Other recent photos of the illegal alien, however, do not appear to show the tattoo, Fox News Digital found.

"Ask any law or immigration enforcement official who’s been on the ground about Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s tattoos: they’re MS-13," White House spokesman Kush Desai...

During the confirmation hearing for Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) nominee Terrance Cole, Sen. Lindsey Graham produced a photo of deported alleged gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia and asked Cole to essentially translate the man’s controversial tattoos.

"Are you familiar with MS-13? Briefly, what are they?" Graham asked.

"They’re a terrorist organization," Cole replied.

"[They’re involved in] extortion, kidnapping, drugs, intimidation, money laundering…"

Scott Jennings, CNN's Trump-supporting commentator who has gone viral on social media for his sparring matches with left-leaning guests, responded to reports that he may run for Senate in Kentucky to succeed Sen. Mitch McConnell.

"Man, the internet’s a crazy place. Long way until next May," Jennings, who formerly advised multiple McConnell campaigns, told Fox News Digital at the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday. "I read all this with some amusement, but again, it’s a long way until next year."
