Trump is using the government shutdown to do something no president has ever done

The United States government shutdown drags on, marking a pivotal moment in America’s fiscal and constitutional history. President Donald Trump, the negotiator-in-chief, isn’t blinking. He’s swinging the axe at bloated, Democrat-run bureaucracies that have taken trillions from hardworking Americans for decades. 

While Nancy Pelosi and her party claim “chaos” and Trump is turning crisis into clarity — freezing $26 billion in blue-state pork, halting green-energy pet projects and directing departments to prepare reduction-in-force plans as part of a broader review of spending and accountability. Those plans are now in motion: the Office of Management and Budget confirmed that federal layoffs have begun, with cuts underway in Health, Homeland Security and Commerce. Washington calls it chaos. I call it a cleanup — a reckoning long overdue in the deep-state swamp. For the first time in modern history, a shutdown isn’t about stalling — it’s about a president reshaping Washington for the people.

Shutdowns of the past stand in stark contrast to today. Under President Bill Clinton in 1995 and 1996, Washington clashed over how to balance the budget and rein in spending. The government shut down twice for 26 days as parks closed, workers were furloughed and each side blamed the other. It ended with both sides blinking. They struck a compromise that preserved the exact bureaucracy they fought over, and Clinton walked away with higher approval ratings while the deep state remained intact. Even during Trump’s 2018–2019 standoff — the longest in history at 35 days — Washington fell back into the same pattern. The fight over border funding and national security ended in another stalemate, yielding $1.375 billion for 55 miles of fencing, barely funding the wall and no reform to the bloated machine.

WHITE HOUSE ESCALATES SHUTDOWN CONSEQUENCES AS DEMOCRATS SHOW NO SIGNS OF BUDGING: ‘KAMIKAZE ATTACK’

For decades, Washington’s playbook during shutdowns has been the same: panic, finger-pointing and a “compromise” that keeps the bureaucracy alive. Washington promoted the lie that when the money stops, the people lose. Trump 2.0 flips the script to show when the right programs are protected and waste is halted, we win. From day one, the administration withheld $26 billion in earmarks for blue-state pet projects, windmills in California, green-energy programs and transit boondoggles in New York, while signaling layoffs in what Trump calls “Democrat agencies.” 

The administration also ordered federal agencies to prepare reduction-in-force plans, signaling that Trump is willing to fire bureaucrats who treat tax dollars as entitlements. No past president has dared to do that. The message is clear: you are neither entitled to nor guaranteed a job if your mission isn’t constitutional. He gave Democrats every opportunity to come to the table and keep the government working for the people. They refused and now those plans are being executed. “The RIFs have begun,” OMB Director Russ Vought confirmed on X that layoffs are officially underway.

Trump has already shown he isn’t afraid to act. Earlier this year, he dismissed inspectors general, ordered layoffs at ideological agencies like the National Endowment for the Humanities — which has poured taxpayer dollars into DEI vanity programs — and reduced staff at the EPA and NOAA long before the shutdown began.

Trump is executing a shutdown plan as an unprecedented audit — one no president has ever attempted. Legal scholars now debate the constitutionality of leveraging a funding lapse for structural reform. For the first time, a president is using a shutdown as a tool for permanent restructuring rather than a negotiation tactic, treating it as a wide-scale audit to align Washington’s priorities with taxpayers rather than its own self-interest.

The constitutional implications are profound. Under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974, presidents may defer spending when it isn’t necessary for the immediate execution of the law. Trump is using this authority to pause appropriations to ideological programs that are non-essential. 

Critics argue this is an unconstitutional “end run” around Congress’s power of the purse. Yet the Constitution’s Article II Take Care Clause vests the president with discretion to “faithfully execute” the laws responsibly — not rubber-stamp wasteful spending. Trump is posing the question: can the executive branch use a shutdown to impose fiscal restraint when Congress refuses to?

And there is precedent — thin, but real — tilting in his favor. On September 26, 2025, the Supreme Court granted the administration a stay allowing Trump to withhold nearly $4 billion in foreign aid pending appeal in Department of State v. AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition. The 6–3 order, with liberal justices dissenting, signaled a willingness to let the executive branch exercise broad discretion over deferred funds. While not a final ruling, it gives Trump clear constitutional footing — proof that his deferral strategy is grounded in precedent.

Democrats call this shutdown coercion, but Trump is using Washington’s dysfunction as a weapon for reform. If Republicans stand firm and refuse to blink, this will mark the beginning of a lean, accountable government that serves Americans rather than the swamp. America is ready for a reckoning. Trump is rebuilding government for the people who built this country.

A man has been charged with multiple counts of vehicular homicide after authorities said he drove his semitruck too close behind a van, triggering a fiery, multi-vehicle crash on a Georgia highway that killed eight people from the same family, including five children.

Kane Aaron Hammock, 33, faces eight counts of vehicular homicide in the second degree and one count of feticide by vehicle in the second degree, according to the Georgia Department of Public Safety, cited by The Associated Press.

He has also been charged with following too closely, no registration and failure to exercise due care on Interstate 85 in Jackson County, about 62 miles northeast of Atlanta.

The crash occurred around 4:10 p.m. Monday along the northbound lanes of I-85, just south of mile marker 147 near Commerce.

Authorities said the semitruck struck the back of a Dodge Grand Caravan, sparking a “chain reaction” involving four additional vehicles.

The van caught fire after impact, and all seven people inside were pronounced dead at the scene, Fox 5 Atlanta reported. An eighth victim was later found at the crash site.

The victims’ identities have not been officially released, but relatives identified the deceased as Kenia Ramirez and Darwin Ventura, along with their child, Kayle. The couple reportedly had another baby on the way.

Sonia Maribel Ramirez, Kenia’s mother, was also killed, along with her children Justin, Andy, Natali and Evan. The five children were between 2 and 16 years old, relatives told Atlanta News First.

One of the victims may have been pregnant, pending confirmation from an autopsy, officials said.

A van operated by Furkids Animal Rescue and Shelters, carrying 37 cats, was also involved in the collision. The shelter said its driver and several animals were injured, and five cats remain missing.

White House exposes criminal migrants on Medicaid while Senate remains deadlocked

EXCLUSIVE: The White House unveiled a number of criminal illegal migrants who received Medicaid as the Senate remains in gridlock over the government shutdown. 

Fox News Digital obtained detailed information surrounding the arrests of 49 illegal migrants, who have all been deported under the Trump administration, who were arrested for an array of crimes that occurred in the U.S. Charges include murder, assault, theft, burglary, rape and sexual abuse of a minor among other serious charges.

In Congress, the federal government has remained shut down for more than two weeks as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and most Democrats push for a reinstatement of Medicaid policy that was altered under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act to be included in legislation that would fund the government through Nov. 21.

SENATE SET FOR NEW VOTE TO END SHUTDOWN, BUT GRIDLOCK OVER OBAMACARE SUBSIDIES REMAINS

Republicans argue that “more than 1 million illegal aliens” receive Medicaid under the previously existing program that was revised under Trump’s landmark bill. 

“Democrats shut down the government and are inflicting pain on hardworking Americans because they want to provide free healthcare to illegal aliens,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital. “Due to previously lax federal controls and Democrat state policies, criminal illegal murderers and rapists received Medicaid at the American taxpayers’ expense.”

While federal law prohibits undocumented individuals from obtaining Medicaid, some states use federal funds to provide unique versions of state-funded healthcare that permit illegal immigrants to receive health benefits. 

MEXICAN GANGS OFFERING UP TO $50K BOUNTIES FOR ICE AGENT ASSASSINATIONS IN US, DHS SAYS

Under the Biden administration, states were not allowed to place limits on the length of time someone could attest to having eligible immigration status for Medicaid.

“President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cut Act is ensuring taxpayer dollars are focused on American citizens and do not subsidize healthcare for illegal aliens – but Democrats are desperate to undo these important reforms, and they’re willing to make the American people suffer for it,” Jackson added.

A majority of the illegal migrants the White House shared with Fox News Digital come from Mexico, El Salvador and even include some that illegally emigrated from China

A White House official explained that illegal migrants could obtain Medicaid through different means, but, specifically, emergency care spending on those not legally in the U.S. rose from $3 billion to $9 billion under President Joe Biden across various states. Tax dollars spent on illegal migrants exceeded that of pregnant women, children, elderly and the disabled during the Biden administration. 

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act removed these provisions, which Senate Democrats are fighting to include, among other Medicaid items, in the ever-failing continuing resolution that has kept the government shut down.

On Tuesday night, the eighth vote to pass the continuing resolution failed in the Senate. Only Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., broke ranks from her party. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., did not vote. 

Vance refuses to ‘pearl clutch’ as Dems stay silent on candidate’s violent messages

Vice President JD Vance and President Donald Trump separately slammed Democrats who continue to back Virginia attorney general candidate Jay Jones as his campaign unravels over texts envisioning the murder of a former top Republican lawmaker and his young children.

Jones – who sent messages claiming he would shoot former Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert, R-Shenandoah, over Cambodian dictator Pol Pot and former German Chancellor Adolf Hitler – will also face off with incumbent Attorney General Jason Miyares at the University of Richmond on Thursday in their sole debate.

Vance also appeared to respond to outrage over a leaked group chat, first reported by Politico, in which young Republican activists — many from New York — praised Hitler and used racist slurs, reportedly referring to African Americans as “watermelon people.”

VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS HAVE A VIOLENCE PROBLEM

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has not publicly denounced Jones or called for him to drop out, but immediately demanded “every Republican from President Trump on down” condemn the group chat “unequivocally.”

Vance pushed back, tweeting that he wouldn’t join the outrage given Democrats’ silence on Jones.

“This is far worse than anything said in a college group chat, and the guy who said it could become the AG of Virginia,” he said.

LIBERAL MEDIA DOWNPLAYS SCANDAL OF DEM VIRGINIA AG HOPEFUL JAY JONES’ TEXTS FANTASIZING MURDER OF GOP LAWMAKER

“I refuse to join the pearl clutching when powerful people call for political violence,” Vance said, sharing a snippet of Jones’ text to Virginia Del. Carrie Coyner, R-Hopewell, that read: “only when people feel pain personally do they move on policy.”

Speaking during a ceremony eulogizing conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was allegedly murdered by a left-wing extremist, Trump said political violence and violent rhetoric from the left must stop.

“We’ve seen that a candidate for attorney general in Virginia boasted that he would want to see [a] Republican legislator in Virginia shot in the head and to see his children murdered — They actually said this,” Trump said.

LIBERAL MSNBC PANELIST CALLS FOR VIRGINIA AG CANDIDATE TO DROP OUT OVER VIOLENT TEXT MESSAGES

“And now he continues to run for office, and most people continue to back him.”

Trump offered incredulity at the idea Jones could envision such violence and not either drop out or be forced out of the race.

“Pretty amazing, right – that’s a bad one; let’s see how that turns out,” he said.

“Especially in the wake of Charlie’s assassination, our country must have absolutely no tolerance for this radical left violence, extremism and terror.”

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu responded after President Donald Trump threatened to pull FIFA World Cup games out of the city next year. 

“Boston is honored and excited to host World Cup matches, and we look forward to welcoming fans from around the world to our beautiful city, the cradle of liberty and city of champions,” she said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.

Boston is currently set to host seven matches when the World Cup comes to North America next summer. The slate includes five group-stage games, one Round of 32 fixture and the first quarterfinal on July 9.

Trump made the suggestion that he would have games moved out of Boston while speaking to reporters on Tuesday while discussing an incident that happened in the city this week when a group of people took over one of the city’s streets in a violent display. 

According to the Boston Police Department, over 100 people were involved in the takeover that involved street racing just after 2 a.m. on Oct. 5. Officers found people trying to attack police cruisers with fireworks, cones, poles and other items. One police cruiser was destroyed by flames and needed to be towed away from the area, officials said.

“We can take them away. I love the people of Boston. And I know the games are sold out, but the mayor is not good. There are worse than her. At least she’s intelligent. You know, some are extremely low IQ. Those bother me more. She’s intelligent, but she’s radical left,” Trump said. 

Trump added he would call FIFA President Gianni Infantino to have the games moved.

“The answer is yes, if somebody’s doing a bad job, and if I feel there’s unsafe conditions, I would call Gianni, the head of FIFA, who’s phenomenal, and I would say, ‘Let’s move it to another location,’ and he would do that. He wouldn’t love to do it, but he’d do it, very easily he’d do it. And this is the right time to do it.” 

Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey addressed the violent incident in Boston on Tuesday.

“I’m committed to doing everything I can to get after this issue,” Healey said. “That’s my message today: No more.

“Not going to happen here. And if you do it, you’re going to be punished. I’m serious.”


 

University moves to oust Turning Point USA officers after they called out Antifa-linked prof

The Rutgers director for student involvement and leadership is calling for the removal of two Turning Point USA officers after they called out a professor at the university who is linked to Antifa. 

In an email obtained by Fox News Digital, Karima Woodyard, director for student involvement and leadership at Rutgers, said that both Megyn Doyle, a student at Rutgers and the treasurer for the Turning Point USA chapter, and Ava Kwan, the chapter’s outreach coordinator, should be removed from their officer positions and that a new election should be held.

According to the email sent on Monday, Woodyard argued that neither Doyle nor Kwan were eligible to serve as officers. 

RUTGERS STUDENT GOVERNMENT DEMANDS UNIVERSITY DEFEND ANTIFA-ALIGNED PROFESSOR WHO FLED COUNTRY

“I wanted to bring to your attention that Megyn is a Newark student and Ava is a graduate student,” Woodyard wrote in the email directed to Rutgers TPUSA Chapter President Stephen Wallace and Chapter Vice President Victoria Sorbat. “Because your organization is classified as an undergraduate student organization for the New Brunswick campus, both individuals are ineligible to hold executive board positions within your group.” 

Woodyard then directed the chapter’s leaders to act quickly.

“Please proceed with holding elections for those positions in accordance with your organization’s constitution to ensure compliance with university and student organization policies. Please let me know when this is done.”

Recently, Doyle launched a petition to remove Mark Bray, a Rutgers University professor, citing concerns over his past statements supporting Antifa.

Bray, who is the author of “Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook,” “The Anarchist Inquisition: Assassins, Activists, and Martyrs in Spain and France,” and “Translating Anarchy: The Anarchism of Occupy Wall Street,” said that he would be moving his family to Europe due to safety concerns. 

Last week, he announced on Bluesky, the social media platform popular with progressives, “Our plane to Spain is in the air!” 

RUTGERS TPUSA OFFICERS SLAM PETITION TO SHUT DOWN CHAPTER, ‘BLATANTLY DEFAMATORY’

In previous online posts, Bray has expressed strong support for “antifacism.” 

In a Sept. 12 post on Bluesky, Bray promoted a Sept. 13 event he was presenting at in New York City entitled, “Another War Is Possible: Experiences in the fight against deportation, fascism, & capitalist globalization.”

In an Oct. 4 post on the platform, Bray wrote, “It’s true that sometimes the law holds back Trump and affords us some semblance of safety. But the more we lean into the law as our shield, the more powerful it will become as a sword when Trump changes it in his favor and wields it against us. Only mass antifascism, legal or not, can save us.” 

Bray has also identified himself as a member of the Black Rose Anarchist Federation and participated in the G20 protests in Hamburg, Germany, and was involved with Occupy Wall Street in New York.

An April blog post from the Black Rose Anarchist Foundation entitled, “It Will Take Collective Direct Action to Stop the Abductions,” reads in part, “Throughout all our on-campus organizing efforts, we should keep this one point in mind: that sooner or later we are going to have to strike, or engage in other forms of mass-scale disruptive activity.”

In response to Doyle’s petition, a technology developer who did not appear to have a direct connection to Rutgers, launched a Change.org petition to remove the Rutgers TPUSA chapter, accusing the group of promoting “hate speech” and creating a “toxic environment.”

Fox News Digital reached out to Woodyard, Rutgers and Wallace for comment but did not immediately receive responses.

Kwan, the chapter’s outreach coordinator, told Fox News Digital in a statement that, “Based on the timing of this investigation, this reads as a weaponization of procedure against Megyn and I as a result of our public opposition to self-proclaimed Antifa affiliate, Mark Bray.” 

“We have requested transparency from the Rutgers administration as to who ordered this investigation into our chapter and why,” Kwan added. “We were never alerted to any issues with our officeholding until now. Rather than address our concerns publicly and transparently, Rutgers appears to have resorted to collegiate lawfare to silence us.”

Students at Rutgers are asking the university president, William F. Tate IV, to publicly support Bray.  

The “Resolution in Support of Professor Mark Bray’s Academic Freedom and Free Expression,” is slated for consideration and vote Friday by the Rutgers University Senate, according to a document obtained by Fox News Digital.

In an opinion article published in NJ.con on Tuesday, Tate wrote, “Protecting free speech, as we do at Rutgers, does not mean endorsing every view expressed on campus. It means defending the right to express those views, confident that, through open exchange and inquiry, better arguments will prevail.”

Arsonist hurls Molotov cocktails into governor’s mansion in surveillance video

New surveillance video released Tuesday shows an arsonist setting fire to Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s mansion with flaming Molotov cocktails in April.

The Dauphin County District Attorney’s Office shared the video shortly after suspect Cody Balmer pleaded guilty to all charges, including attempted murder, aggravated arson, burglary, terrorism and other related offenses. He was sentenced to 25 to 50 years in prison.

Balmer set the fire at around 2 a.m. on April 13 after Shapiro and his family celebrated the first night of the Jewish holiday of Passover. Shapiro and his family were asleep at the time of the incident.

The video shows Balmer, 38, walking on the property and breaking one of the residence’s glass windows with a sledgehammer, officials said. He then threw a flaming Molotov cocktail inside, setting the mansion ablaze.

Balmer uses the sledgehammer to break a second window and climb through to enter the residence, according to the video.

Balmer was seen striking multiple doors with the sledgehammer but was unable to break through. Officials said one of the doors led to where Shapiro’s family and guests slept.

While still inside, Balmer is seen throwing a second Molotov cocktail into the dining area, igniting a second fire before running out of the residence through an exit door.

Authorities said at the time of his arrest that “Balmer admitted to harboring hatred towards Governor Shapiro.” He allegedly said he planned to attack Shapiro with his hammer if he were to find the governor in the mansion.

Shapiro spoke at a press conference Tuesday following Balmer’s guilty plea, calling for “real accountability for acts of political violence,” while also asking the public to not “grow numb” to such actions.

“Sadly, as you know, our family is not the only ones to experience political violence, violence that is used to try and silence people or intimidate people,” the governor said. “I think it’s important that in this time of rising political violence, that none of us grow numb to it or accept this as the normal course of doing business for elected officials.”

Cancer diagnosis shocks actress after she ignores everyday symptom for months

Alex Kingston, known for her roles on hit shows like “ER” and “Doctor Who,” revealed her battle with uterine cancer in a recent interview.

In the first sign that something was wrong, the actress began hemorrhaging onstage in 2024, then ultimately carried on with the show. It wasn’t until six weeks later that doctors diagnosed her with cancer.

“Your body does try to warn you,” the star, 62, told The Independent. “It just depends on whether you can read the warning signs.”

ERIN ANDREWS HAD ‘NO SYMPTOMS’ BEFORE CANCER DIAGNOSIS, PUSHES FOR EARLY SCREENINGS

“I had assumed that the way I was feeling was old age, and I just sort of accepted it,” Kingston went on, noting that she had experienced bloating and achiness for years.

Kingston brushed off the telltale signs of uterine cancer as typical aging, a mistake experts say can cost women their lives.

Uterine cancer, sometimes referred to as “womb cancer,” is a general term describing cancer that forms in the uterus. It most often develops after menopause, according to Cleveland Clinic.

There are two forms: endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma. Endometrial is one of the most common reproductive cancers, while uterine sarcoma develops in the muscle wall of your uterus. Uterine sarcomas are very rare, the above source stated.

BINDI IRWIN’S PAINFUL MEDICAL JOURNEY ENDS WITH LIFE-CHANGING SURGERIES

About 3% of women will receive a diagnosis of uterine cancer at some point during their lives. Each year, about 65,000 women are diagnosed.

Symptoms to watch for

Symptoms of uterine cancer can resemble other conditions, which could be why it can go undetected or even ignored, as in Kingston’s case.

Symptoms can include the following, according to Cleveland Clinic.

  • Vaginal bleeding between periods before menopause
  • Vaginal bleeding or spotting after menopause
  • Lower abdominal pain or cramping just below your stomach
  • Thin white or clear vaginal discharge for postmenopausal women
  • Prolonged, heavy or frequent vaginal bleeding after 40

Risk factors

Researchers aren’t sure of the exact cause of uterine cancer. The condition occurs when cells in the uterus mutate and multiply uncontrollably, which can form a mass called a tumor, Cleveland Clinic states.

Many uterine cancer risk factors are associated with hormonal imbalances — such as obesity and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), both of which can increase estrogen exposure.

Other factors include age (most cases occur after age 50), diet (a high-fat diet can increase cancer risk), and family history of the disease. People who haven’t been pregnant also have a higher risk, experts say.

There are a range of treatment approaches for uterine cancer. In Kingston’s case, she underwent radiation therapy and a hysterectomy. Chemotherapy, hormone therapy and immunotherapy may also come into play during treatment.

During a hysterectomy, surgeons often perform procedures to remove ovaries and fallopian tubes. Most people need this extra step to make sure all cancer gets removed, per Cleveland Clinic.

Doctors may also perform a procedure to remove lymph nodes and determine whether cancer has spread.

Early intervention

While uterine cancer can be fatal, an early diagnosis means potentially faster treatment and better outcomes.

Those experiencing any symptoms should speak with a healthcare provider and undergo a pelvic exam, experts recommend.

A provider may also use a combination of blood tests and imaging scans to confirm a diagnosis.

“Uterine cancer is really tricky because it is so sneaky,” Kingston told The Independent.

“What I would say is, the body does know — and that was the body saying to me, ‘Help! There’s something really wrong.’ It’s so important to seek advice and have a check-up.”

Fathers of American hostages ‘disappointed’ as Hamas violates Trump’s peace plan

Two Americans were still among the deceased hostages held by Hamas on Wednesday, as the Palestinian terror group failed to meet the terms of President Donald Trump’s peace plan.

Nineteen-year-old U.S.-Israeli dual citizen Itay Chen was initially believed to have been kidnapped by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023, while serving along the Gaza border, but was later declared dead by the IDF. His body is still held by Hamas in Gaza. 

Capt. Omer Neutra, 21, a fellow American-Israeli from New York, was killed in battle that same day, and his body remains in captivity.

TRUMP ISSUES DIRE WARNING TO HAMAS: IF THEY DON’T DISARM ‘WE WILL DISARM THEM’

“This two-year emotional roller coaster has reached one of its highest peaks,” said Ronen Neutra, father of Omer Neutra, in an interview with Fox News Digital.

On Monday, Neutra met with Trump for an hour during the president’s visit to Israel.

“We voiced our concern that no deceased hostage should remain in Gaza. We know we’re dealing with a terror organization that exploits every grey area in any deal. While the living hostages were returned as agreed, we’re already seeing violations,” Neutra said. “The president assured us he would do everything to bring our children home.”

Earlier Wednesday, Neutra and his wife went to sleep only at 3 a.m, after learning that the four bodies released by Hamas once again did not include their son — and that one of them wasn’t even a hostage.

“I expect the United States to exert strong pressure on the mediators,” Neutra told Fox News Digital. “We’ve heard that Washington has spoken directly with Hamas in Egypt, and we demand full implementation of the agreement — or serious consequences: halting humanitarian aid, and stopping the movement of goods and people through the Rafah crossing.

“Our expectation is for President Trump to ensure that the two American citizens still held by Hamas — our son Omer and Itay Chen — are brought home for burial,” he continued. “After two years of fighting for this, we deserve closure — and our son deserves proper burial in the land he loved and defended.”

TRUMP HAS FREED MORE THAN 70 US HOSTAGES IN LESS THAN A YEAR; BIDEN RELEASED AROUND 70 IN FOUR YEARS

Under the terms of the agreement, Hamas was obligated to return all 28 bodies alongside the 20 living captives freed on Monday. However, the terror group has so far delivered only seven bodies — four on Monday and three more on Tuesday night — in clear violation of the deal. 

“There is a diplomatic effort to make sure the agreement is fulfilled,” said Ruby Chen, the father of Itay Chen, the other remaining American held by Hamas terrorists in Gaza.

“Hamas did not provide the majority of the hostages yesterday, and we — the families — are, of course, very disappointed,” he continued. “Especially as an American citizen, I’m disappointed that the United States was not able to bring my son back. We demand that the window of opportunity that exists today to release the remaining hostages not be lost.”

“The U.S. and the mediators must put pressure on Hamas to release the remaining hostages,” Chen added, “and leverage the agreed-upon components — such as the release of Palestinian prisoners and the reopening of the Rafah crossing.”

The Israel Defense Forces announced on Wednesday that one of the four bodies Hamas returned to Israel late Tuesday did not belong to any of the identified hostages.

IDF SAYS BODY TURNED OVER BY HAMAS DOESN’T MATCH ANY HOSTAGES

Trump delivered a sharp warning to Hamas on Tuesday, vowing that the U.S. would act if the terrorist group fails to lay down its arms.

“They said they were going to disarm, and if they don’t, we will disarm them,” Trump told reporters at the White House while meeting with Argentine President Javier Milei.

Professor Hagai Levine, head of the health team for the Hostage and Missing Families Forum, described the emotional toll on families still awaiting news.

“It has a tremendous psychological impact — families cannot move forward until there is certainty, a proper burial, and full confidence regarding the fate of their loved ones,” Levine told Fox News Digital.

“That’s why bringing back all hostages — living and deceased — is critical for families, and for the nation as a whole, to begin healing,” he added.

Levine explained that the identification and verification process for deceased hostages is carried out at the National Institute of Forensic Medicine in Abu Kabir in Tel Aviv.

“I’m in close contact with the staff at the institute,” he said. “We have complete trust in them. They use advanced technology and multiple methods for identification — including individual markings, unique tattoos, fingerprints, DNA comparison with pre-acquired family samples, and full-body CT scans.”

He cautioned that the process could take time, citing previous cases such as that of Shiri Bibas, whose body Hamas initially substituted with that of a Gazan woman before eventually returning her actual remains.

“Receiving the news is also a critical and emotional moment,” Levine continued. “It can bring a measure of relief and closure, but it’s also an extremely stressful time — and we’re there to support the families. Those still waiting fear their loved ones will be forgotten. The mission isn’t complete until everyone is brought back to Israel.”

Israel’s Kan 11 reported on Tuesday, citing Qatari media, that Egyptian teams had begun assisting in efforts to locate the remains of deceased hostages in Gaza.

Meanwhile, the Hostages and Missing Families Forum sent a letter to U.S. Middle East Envoy Steve Witkoff, expressing their gratitude.

“We are immensely grateful and overjoyed to see 20 of our loved ones back home, finally reuniting with the families who have fought tirelessly for their return for so long. However, what we feared is now happening before our eyes. Only four deceased hostages are coming home today,” the letter said.

“We must ensure that all remaining hostages come home. We cannot rest, and we know you will not rest, until every last hostage is returned,” it added.
