Gov. Janet Mills of Maine is attempting to capitalize on her moment in the national spotlight after she got into a public dust-up with President Donald Trump last week over her state's defiance of his executive order demanding biological males who identify as transgender stay out of women's sports.

The pair got into a verbal skirmish on Friday at the White House after Trump said the night prior that Maine would not receive any federal funding until it started taking action to prevent transgender women from competing on women's sports teams...

FIRST ON FOX: A pro-life medical group is urging New York Gov. Kathy Hochul to reverse course on a recently passed state law that shields the identities of healthcare providers who prescribe and mail the abortion pill mifepristone.

In a letter to Hochul on Wednesday, the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs (AAPLOG) said the law "recklessly endangers" patients who cannot follow up with their provider in the case of complications.

"Concealing doctors’ identity recklessly endangers the patients we’re meant to serve," the group wrote. "It compounds...

The FBI is reportedly beginning an investigation into allegations that the agency, when headed by then-Director James Comey, launched a "honeypot" operation to infiltrate the 2016 Trump campaign with two female agents.

The Washington Times reported that the agency is looking into an alleged 2015 operation, which was revealed by a whistleblower in a disclosure to the House Judiciary Committee last year and was said to involve two agents acting as "honeypots" while traveling with the Trump team.

"Honeypots" typically refer to undercover agents who...

Attorneys for New York City Mayor Eric Adams asked a U.S. judge to dismiss with prejudice all charges against their client on Wednesday, seeking to expedite the dismissal nearly two weeks after prosecutors moved to drop the corruption case.

In the filing, Adams' legal team asked the presiding judge in the case, U.S. District Judge Dale Ho, to grant the Justice Department's request to dismiss charges against Adams swiftly and with prejudice, arguing that an "extraordinary flurry" of leaks by prosecutors had violated Adams' right to a fair trial.

The House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing on Tuesday was slated to discuss billions of dollars in government waste identified by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), but first devolved into chaos when one Democrat repeatedly referred to the leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) as "President Musk" and to President Donald Trump as the "grifter in chief."

Chairman Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., kicked off the hearing by accusing Democrats of declining to participate with Republicans in their oversight plan...

Hikers got a rare glimpse at a beautiful but short-lived phenomenon, ice caves that appeared in the Morteratsch glacier in eastern Switzerland.

EXCLUSIVE: As most leaders in deep blue Washington state double down on sanctuary policies and refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, Sheriff Bob Songer of Klickitat County is pledging to support federal immigration enforcement in any way he can, telling Tom Homan to "put me on speed dial."

In December, Songer published a video through the Klickitat County Sheriff's Office's official Facebook page in which he said the Biden administration had "allowed our country to be invaded" and publicly vowed to help ICE enforce immigration...

CIA Director John Ratcliffe is unconcerned by speculation that agents who are fired under the Department of Government Efficiency cuts may take the nation’s secrets to foreign adversaries.

"You’re telling me that a professional setback could cause people to risk the consequences of treason and betray their country, and your argument is that those are the kind of people who should stay inside CIA?" a source familiar with the CIA head’s thinking told Fox News Digital.

"There’s a general sense that it’s more of a justification for maintaining the...

The House of Representatives has adopted a resolution that will eventually become a massive multi-trillion-dollar bill full of President Donald Trump's priorities on the border, defense, energy and taxes.

In a major victory for House GOP leaders, the resolution passed in a 217 to 215 vote.

All Democrats voted against the measure, along with lone Republican rebel Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who was concerned about its effect on the national deficit.

The next step is now for the relevant House committees to meet and build their own proposals, which...

A number of states are stepping up to aid the Trump administration in its efforts to arrest and deport millions of illegal immigrants, with Republican states countering the pushback against the operation from "sanctuary" jurisdictions.

The Florida Sheriff’s Association announced last week that jails in all of Florida’s 67 counties have now entered into 287(g) agreements, which originate from a Clinton-era immigration law and allow Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to delegate immigration functions to state and local law enforcement...

The bruise seen on the back of President Donald Trump’s hand is from him "constantly" shaking other people’s hands, the White House said.

Trump was photographed earlier this week with a bruise on his right hand as he met with French President Emmanuel Macron at the White House.

"President Trump is a man of the people," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told NBC News. "His commitment is unwavering, and he proves that every single day."
