GOP senator blasts President Trump’s voter ID bill before key Senate showdown
Senate Republicans are gearing up for a floor battle over Trump-backed voter ID legislation, but another GOP senator plans to oppose it.
Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., won’t support the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, a decision that could throw a wrench into the GOP’s plan to force Senate Democrats into tough vote after tough vote next week.
“I’m a no,” Tillis said. “I’m going to do everything I can to prevent it from even moving forward.”
SENATE GOP EYES BLAME GAME AS TRUMP-BACKED SAVE ACT HEADS FOR DEFEAT
He did offer an alternative, arguing that if Republicans were “serious” about voter ID, they’d consider legislation that incentivized states to use the practice in exchange for federal funding. If not, the money would go toward ensuring “election integrity” oversight.
“Who could be against that? You know, and then rock on, California, if you want to enable ballot harvesting,” Tillis said. “Make sure you do it on your nickels, because we’re going to spend the money to oversee the elections to make sure you did it legally.”
His resistance to the bill comes after President Donald Trump demanded that Republicans ram the bill through Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Senate Democrats’ blockade with a talking filibuster.
TRUMP, THUNE CLASH ON VOTER ID ULTIMATUM AS GOP REMAINS DIVIDED ON PATH FORWARD
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., and Republicans landed on a plan to put the bill on the floor that doesn’t take the route of a talking filibuster, given that there isn’t enough unity among Republicans to block Democrats’ amendments that could drastically change the bill.
However, that process is in the spirit of the talking filibuster and will allow Republicans to load up amendments on the floor for a marathon debate session. Still, it won’t lower the threshold to pass the bill with just a simple majority, something the talking filibuster would have done.
Republicans know it’s destined to fail and are trying to shift blame to Schumer and Democrats with their floor strategy.
THUNE GUARANTEES VOTER ID BILL TO HIT THE SENATE DESPITE SCHUMER, DEM OPPOSITION: ‘WE WILL HAVE A VOTE’
But Tillis, who was a co-sponsor of the bill’s predecessor called the SAVE Act, disagreed with the changes Trump proposed to the legislation, which included banning mail-in ballots with limited exceptions, halting men in women’s sports and stopping transgender surgeries for minors.
“You know, taking the language from the White House without understanding the state-by-state implications, politically and procedurally, just doesn’t sound like we’re letting the people at the tip of the spear — that’s these people running for re-election — define what we should be voting on next week,” Tillis said.

Tillis joins Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, in opposing the bill. Their defection, coupled with Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., announcing on CBS’ “The Takeout with Major Garrett” that he wouldn’t support the legislation in its “current state” over Trump’s criticism of mail-in balloting, gives the GOP a razor-thin margin of error in trying to even open debate on the bill.
Investigators recover new images in suspected abduction of Nancy Guthrie
Authorities investigating the suspected abduction of Nancy Guthrie have uncovered additional images from her home security cameras, according to law enforcement sources — but nothing new from the night of the abduction and nothing considered a major break in the case.
Guthrie is the 84-year-old mother of “Today” host Savannah Guthrie and has been missing from her home since the early hours of Feb. 1.
The images were taken in the days and weeks leading up to her disappearance and were recovered from three separate cameras — at Guthrie’s front door, over her driveway and in the backyard, a law enforcement official close to the Guthrie case tells Fox News. There is no new video.
SHERIFF WARNS NANCY GUTHRIE SUSPECT COULD ‘ABSOLUTELY’ STRIKE AGAIN, HINTS AT MOTIVE
A spokesperson for the Pima County Sheriff’s Department declined to comment.
The images were first reported by ABC News and have not been made public. They were described to reporters by sources close to the case.
The revelation comes hours after Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told Guthrie’s network, NBC, that the suspect could “absolutely” strike again and that there is a danger to the public.

“We believe that it was targeted, but we can’t — we’re not 100% sure of that,” he said in an interview that aired Friday morning. “And so it would be silly to tell people, ‘Yea don’t worry about it. You’re not his target.’ No, you could be.”

Anxiety epidemic linked to consumption of popular beverage, study suggests
An excess of sugary drinks can specifically lead to a higher risk of anxiety among teens, a new study shows.
In a meta-analysis published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, U.K. researchers reviewed various studies from 2000 to 2025.
They explored the link between drinking sugar-sweetened beverages — like sodas, energy drinks, sweetened juices, teas and coffee — and anxiety disorders in adolescents between 10 and 19 years old.
IS YOUR DIET MISSING A BRAIN-BOOSTING COMMON NUTRIENT? NEW ANXIETY STUDY RAISES CONCERN
Teens with a higher consumption of sugary drinks were found to have about a 34% greater risk of having an anxiety disorder compared to those who drank less.
Seven out of the nine studies analyzed by the researchers showed a significant positive association between sugary drinks intake and anxiety symptoms.
“With increasing concern about adolescent nutrition, most public health initiatives have emphasized the physical consequences of poor dietary habits, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes,” study co-author Dr. Chloe Casey, lecturer in nutrition at Bournemouth University in the U.K., commented in a press release statement.
ALZHEIMER’S RISK TIED TO HOW THE BODY HANDLES SUGAR AFTER EATING, STUDY FINDS
“However, the mental health implications of diet have been under-explored by comparison, particularly for drinks that are energy-dense but low in nutrients.”
The study was based on observational data, which does not prove that drinking sugary beverages directly causes anxiety. There is also not a clear indication of whether sugary drinks cause anxiety or if anxious teens are more inclined to drink them.
“While we may not be able to confirm at this stage what the direct cause is, this study has identified an unhealthy connection between consumption of sugary drinks and anxiety disorders in young people,” Casey said.
“Anxiety disorders in adolescence have risen sharply in recent years, so it is important to identify lifestyle habits that can be changed to reduce the risk of this trend continuing.”

About 11% of American children between the ages of 3 and 17 were diagnosed with anxiety between 2022 and 2023, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“Anxiety problems, behavior disorders and depression are the most commonly diagnosed mental disorders in children,” states the agency’s website.
“While it’s important to note that this study is correlation, not causation, I have no doubt that a better-designed study would show the same results,” Los Angeles-based registered dietitian nutritionist Ilana Muhlstein told Fox News Digital.
“Soda, aka liquid sugar — with no fiber, protein or fat to slow absorption — floods the bloodstream faster than almost any other type of food or drink,” said Muhlstein, who was not involved in the study.

“The pancreas scrambles to respond, insulin spikes, blood sugar crashes and you are left in a dopamine deficit state that looks and feels just like anxiety,” she went on. “The sharper the spike, the deeper the crash.”
In her own practice, Muhlstein has found that teens are consuming less soda and more oat milk lattes, coffee drinks “loaded” with syrup, slushies and sports drinks.
Excessive blood sugar spikes can also affect weight, acne, sleep quality and emotional regulation, she shared, regardless of caffeine levels.
“What these kids drink makes a huge difference to their physical and emotional state, and caffeine on top of unstable blood sugar only makes it worse,” Muhlstein warned.

Serena Poon, certified nutritionist, longevity expert and founder of Wholistic Lifestyle Medicine in Los Angeles, noted that food and beverages “are more than just fuel.”
“They provide information to the body and brain,” the expert, who also did not take part in the research, Fox News Digital. “What teens drink regularly can influence energy levels, mood stability and even how the nervous system responds to stress.”
“Highly sweetened drinks can create quick energy highs followed by crashes, and when caffeine is added to the mix, it can amplify stress responses in the body.”

Poon advised parents to encourage their kids to reduce the frequency of sugary beverages and to stay hydrated with water, herbal teas or sparkling water to support more stable energy levels.
Meals should also be balanced with fiber, healthy fats and proteins to stabilize blood sugar, which can impact mood and concentration.

“Adolescence is a critical window for brain development, so supporting teens with balanced nutrition, stable energy levels and adequate hydration may help support both physical and emotional well-being,” Poon added.

Europe begins fingerprinting all US tourists in new border crackdown
European vacation destinations will begin requiring all travelers to have prints of their fingers taken, as well as photos, upon arrival in a new screening process.
France, Italy, Portugal, the United Kingdom and 25 other countries began implementing a new Entry/Exit System (EES) on Oct. 12 — and come April 10, it will be fully enforced.
The program will be introduced “in phases,” officials say.
AIRPORTS SET UP DONATION DRIVES FOR UNPAID TSA OFFICERS DURING DHS FUNDING CRISIS
“These European countries will introduce the different elements of the EES in phases, including the collection of biometric data, such as facial image and fingerprints,” the European Union’s (EU) website notes.
“This means that biometric data (facial image and fingerprints) might not be collected at every border crossing point right away, and [travelers’] personal information may not be registered in the system,” it continued.
Manual passport stamping is being replaced by automatic digital registration.

“As passport stamping will no longer exist once the EES is operational, carriers must use an online interface to perform these checks instead,” reads the EU site.
It’s anticipated that the new policy will help modernize border management across Europe, including security improvements to combat fraud and terrorism.

The system will be able to track if visitors overstay their welcome in the Schengen Area, which is a zone of 29 European countries that allow movement.

Judge hands down ruling on evidence secrecy in Charlie Kirk murder case
PROVO, Utah – Tyler Robinson, the Utah man accused of assassinating Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk in September 2025, was dealt a procedural blow on Friday when Judge Tony Graf Jr. ruled against the defense’s motion to restrict access to certain court filings ahead of an upcoming evidentiary hearing.
“In balance, the defendant has not provided a sufficient basis for the court to find that the interests favoring closure outweigh the interest favoring an open proceeding and the presumptive right to access,” Judge Graf said Friday.
“Moreover, as a Utah Supreme Court recognized, even in highly publicized cases, a defendant’s right to a fair trial can be protected through the regular time-honored process for selecting jurors, like enlarging the voir dire of potential jurors, utilizing a detailed juror questionnaire and conducting a thorough voir dire of potential jurors.”
Additionally, Judge Graf denied the defense team’s motion to ban cameras from the courtroom during Robinson’s hearing, but added Robinson’s defense must file a redacted version of the motion to exclude cameras by March 30.
TYLER ROBINSON DEFENSE PRESSES CONFLICT CLAIM AS EXPERT HINTS MOVE COULD RESHAPE DEATH PENALTY FIGHT
Earlier in the hearing, Robinson’s attorneys had argued their motion to keep certain evidence out of the public’s view, citing the potential inability to select an impartial jury in the high-profile case.
“So what we’re talking about is releasing preliminary evidence into the public sphere that has the potential to impact jurors,” defense attorney Staci Visser said. “And it is important enough that we are concerned that it will sway people’s opinions one way or the other.”
“I want to make clear that our concern here is with selecting an impartial jury,” Visser added. “Really it goes both ways. Whether the evidence is good for my client or bad for my client, whatever it is, it makes it harder to find impartial jurors if they are entrenched in an opinion about our client’s guilt or innocence either way.”
Robinson, 22, faces a potential death penalty if convicted of killing Kirk at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10.
He appeared in court wearing a blue dress shirt and tie, and could be seen occasionally taking notes during Friday’s hearing.
“Specifically, Mr. Robinson seeks to take evidence in a closed setting regarding the unfairly prejudicial and misleading media coverage and the improper statements of government officials in order to avoid republicizing the same. Mr. Robinson also asks this court to take evidence regarding the privacy violations detailed in the ‘motion to exclude cameras’ in a closed setting, to, again, avoid reiterating the violative material,” according to defense filings.
Robinson’s defense team is also seeking to ban cameras and microphones, arguing media coverage could prejudice a jury.
The defense team also asked to close portions of the April 17 hearing to the media, arguing prejudicial media coverage interferes with Robinson’s right to a fair trial.
“We’ll show both that we have categories of prejudice that are recognized as presumptively prejudicial, and we’ll show that beyond that, the overall picture of this case is one of extreme prejudicial pretrial publicity that justifies the kind of relief we’re asking for,” defense attorney Michael Burt said.
At the April 17 hearing, the defense team plans to showcase evidence regarding “harmful and prejudicial media coverage of this case thus far,” the defense said.
“While there is simply not enough time to present all of what is referenced in the ‘motion to exclude cameras,’ the compilation anticipated will highlight the most egregious and most concerning media coverage impacting Mr. Robinson’s case.”
ACCUSED CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSIN TYLER ROBINSON TRIES TO HIDE FROM ‘DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD’ OF PUBLICITY: EXPERT
However, the prosecution looked to hit back at the defense teams’ motion to restrict media access in Robinson’s pretrial hearings while asserting the public’s right to knowledge in the case.
“We are not media lawyers, we are not representing the interests of the media,” Utah County Attorney’s Office general counsel Christopher Ballard said. “Our client is the people of the state of Utah who do have an interest in the public nature of these proceedings. But whether any particular document in this case is public or private is really of secondary concern to the state here. We’re not trying to represent any kind of media interest, and I think it’s improper for the defense to suggest that.”
Previously at Robinson’s Feb. 24 hearing, Graf denied the motion to disqualify the Utah County Attorney’s Office.
The defense team argued there was a conflict of interest because a prosecutor’s daughter was present at the shooting at UVU.
Graf, however, said the court was “unpersuaded” by the argument of an “appearance of bias” from the prosecution team.
“Because defendant has not established a factual basis for a finding of conflict of interest or an objective appearance of impropriety, rising to a constitutional concern, his motion is respectfully denied,” Graf said.

The next hearing on April 17 will address the defense’s motion to exclude all cameras from the courtroom, and a preliminary hearing is set for May 18-20.
Armed Iraq-born US citizen enters school in tactical gear, asks staff about guards, officials say
An armed man wearing tactical gear walked into a Texas elementary school Tuesday through an improperly closed door and asked about the security presence on campus, authorities said.
Kyle Chris, 39, also known as Muhi Mohanad Najm, was arrested at his home Wednesday night and faces a felony charge of unlawfully carrying a weapon in a prohibited place after the incident at Zwink Elementary School, Fox Houston reported.
Chris, originally from Baghdad, Iraq, became a naturalized U.S. citizen on Aug. 24, 2022 and changed his name to Kyle Najm Chris, according to court documents.
He was arrested at his home, located minutes from the school by Klein Independent School District police.
Chris allegedly told authorities he was a security guard, but was actually unemployed, the report states.

The district said Chris got into the school during a 15-second window when the doors didn’t click shut after a parent left the building. He was wearing what appeared to be a uniform and had a holstered firearm, the district said.
However, the school’s “secure vestibule” system stopped him from going any further by keeping him trapped in the front office area, the district said.
“When the individual was asked by the front office staff to provide identification, he did not provide identification, and the front office staff immediately contacted our armed, full-time campus guard,” the district said in a letter to parents obtained by Fox News Digital.
Chris was unable to get into the hallways where students were located.

He left the school grounds and drove away, the district said. No students or staffers were harmed.
Parents were notified of the incident on Wednesday, the district said, because they were working with law enforcement to identify Chris.
“Sending a public notification during that window could have jeopardized those efforts, tipped off the suspect, and delayed the arrest,” the letter states. “Law enforcement had the individual under constant surveillance today, and out of an abundance of caution, additional security measures were in place on campus, including increased police presence.”

DOJ’s Powell subpoenas blocked after judge calls them ‘pretexts’ for harassment
A federal judge blocked the Justice Department’s efforts to issue a pair of grand jury subpoenas to the Federal Reserve Board, concluding that the effort was merely a “pretext” to pressure Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell into lowering interest rates or resigning.
U.S. District Judge James Boasberg said in the newly unsealed ruling that the Justice Department offered “no evidence whatsoever” that Powell committed any crime “other than displeasing” President Donald Trump.
“Did prosecutors issue those subpoenas for a proper purpose? The Court finds that they did not,” he said, adding: “There is abundant evidence that the subpoenas’ dominant (if not sole) purpose is to harass and pressure Powell either to yield to the President or to resign and make way for a Fed Chair who will.”
The ruling comes after U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro opened a criminal inquiry into Powell’s June 2025 testimony before the Senate Banking Committee, centered on the Fed’s years-long renovation of its headquarters in Washington, D.C. Powell revealed the investigation publicly in January, which he described as an attack on the Fed’s independence.
Pirro said Friday that the Justice Department would appeal the ruling to a higher court.
“This process has been arbitrarily undermined by an activist judge,” she said at a press conference Friday, arguing that Boasberg “put himself at the entrance door to the grand jury, slamming that door shut — irrespective of the legal process — and thus preventing the grand jury from doing the work that it does.”
Any appeal could prolong Trump’s efforts to remove Powell from the Fed and replace him with his pick — former Fed Gov Kevin Warsh — as Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C. remarked on social media Friday.
The ruling “confirms just how weak and frivolous the criminal investigation of Chairman Powell is and it is nothing more than a failed attack on Fed independence,” Tillis said.
EX-JUDGES BLAST TOP TRUMP DOJ OFFICIAL FOR DECLARING ‘WAR’ ON COURTS
“We all know how this is going to end and the D.C. U.S. Attorney’s Office should save itself further embarrassment and move on,” he said. “Appealing the ruling will only delay the confirmation of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair.”
Boasberg used the ruling to tick through many of Trump’s social media posts blasting Powell and unsuccessfully pressuring him to lower interest rates, before suggesting that someone else should replace him to head up the Fed.
“Jerome ‘Too Late’ Powell has done it again!!! He is TOO LATE, and actually, TOO ANGRY, TOO STUPID, & TOO POLITICAL, to have the job of Fed Chair,” Boasberg said in one citation — noting that it was among “at least 100 statements that the President or his deputies have made attacking the Chair of the Federal Reserve and pressuring him to lower interest rates.”
“Being perceived as the President’s adversary has become risky in recent years,” Boasberg said.
“In his second term, Trump has urged the Department of Justice to prosecute such people, and the Department’s prosecutors have listened.”

Cindy Crawford wears nothing but necklace and a smile in jacuzzi skinny dip
Cindy Crawford shared a montage on social media of her typical morning routine that included skinny-dipping in her jacuzzi, wearing nothing but a necklace.
“I love my morning routine— sets me up to have a great day!” Crawford wrote in the caption of an Instagram video she shared this week.
The supermodel’s day starts at 6 a.m. with dry brushing while listening to her Bible app.
After doing her face routine, which involves a cleanser and a red-light device, she takes a shot of apple cider vinegar by 7 a.m. — which gives her a little shudder — and then goes outside on her lawn barefoot.

“And that’s my morning,” she added at the end of the video.
Crawford discussed her free-spirited attitude toward nudity in a 2019 interview with Net-a-Porter while talking about appearing naked in a photography book.
“He asked me how I wanted to be photographed,” Crawford said of photographer Russell James. “You could be as free or as not free as you wanted. Part of the reason I wanted to do it was that I thought, at what age is being naked not beautiful anymore? Is there a sell-by date on us? I don’t look the same as I did at 20, 30 or even 40. If we take care of ourselves, why not?”
She said she doesn’t want to be “frolicking” on the beach in a string bikini, but “there is a place where I want to feel beautiful naked, in my private life, with my husband. [Russell] was tapping into that real place — not high heels, not a lot of makeup, not coy, just a real woman who doesn’t have clothes on.”

Crawford added that she doesn’t have any regrets about posing for Playboy twice in 1988 and 1998.
“I look back at some of my old ‘Playboy’ pictures and I think, ‘Why wasn’t I walking around naked all the time?’” she joked to the magazine. “I’m not getting younger. So I want to celebrate who I am today.”
Crawford’s daughter Kaia Gerber also revealed to Harper’s Bazaar earlier this year that her childhood home was covered with naked photos of her mother.

“They were, to me, artistic,” Gerber explained. “It wasn’t vulgar; it wasn’t objectification.”

NYC mayor reportedly backs out of CBS News interview after X post from boss Bari Weiss
Democratic New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani reportedly has backed out of an interview with CBS News over a social media post by the network’s editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.
Vanity Fair reported Thursday that Mamdani was having discussions to sit down with Robert Costa on “CBS Sunday Morning” but had been “averse” to appearing on the Weiss-run network after critical coverage he received from her digital outlet, The Free Press.
However, sources told the magazine Weiss’ apparent endorsement of fiery remarks made Feb. 28 by Iranian journalist, activist and new CBS News contributor Masih Alinejad, who slammed the mayor’s condemnation of Operation Epic Fury against the Iranian regime, was the final straw.

“Where were you when they sent killers here in New York City? You were crying for your aunt because she has stopped using the subway for simply — in an illusionist statement you made saying she didn’t feel safe, for wearing a hijab. Really? I stopped using subways because of the would-be assassins being sent to beautiful New York City by the Islamic Republic,” Alinejad added, before urging Mamdani to shift his “hatred” away from President Donald Trump.

“Bari and her people have a clear ax to grind with him,” a former CBS producer told Vanity Fair. “It’s not just Zohran. It’s really hard now to get people to come on CBS.”
Neither CBS News nor Mamdani’s office responded to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.
