Glizzy Gambling: Best bets for the 2026 Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island, Brooklyn

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 15:50:46 -0400

Fireworks, flags and BBQs are Fourth of July staples, but America’s 250th birthday brings an extra helping of absurdity to Coney Island. Yet, none capture the nation's spirit quite like the legendary Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, a Coney Island spectacle dating back to 1916.

As ridiculous as it may sound, my favorite Red, White and Boom tradition is betting on the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest. Since joining OutKick in 2022, I've won money in two of my three on the Super Bowl of Major League Eating (MLE).

Elite eaters face a brutal new opponent this year: A scorching Brooklyn weather forecast climbing into the upper 90s. Extreme heat is set to significantly affect swallowing speed, completely shaking up the oddsmakers' lines. Welcome to "Glizzy Gambling," your ultimate betting guide to cashing in on this Independence Day.

JOEY CHESTNUT WILL DEFEND NATHAN'S HOT DOG EATING CONTEST TITLE ON JULY 4 WHILE SERVING PROBATION SENTENCE

These odds are the best available at the time of writing and are subject to change.

Total Hot Dogs Eaten by Joey Chestnut: UNDER 70.5 (-165) via DraftKings

First of all, the Glizzy GOAT has eaten 71+ hot dogs and buns (HDB) five times and finished with exactly 70.5 HBD last year. Not to get too nerdy here, but since five out of 16 is 31% and the implied probability of -165 is 62%, I’m getting a good number for the UNDER 70.5 HBD.

Yet, when you factor in the projected heat, I’m getting a great price on that Under. Temperatures in Brooklyn for July 4th are forecasted to be in the upper 90s, and it’s harder to down glizzies in the extreme heat. Sweating in the heat leads to dehydration and makes it tougher to juggle all of those hot dogs. Buns become stale and harder to eat.

JOEY CHESTNUT REFLECTS ON RETURN TO HOT DOG EATING CONTEST AFTER CONTRACT DISPUTE, TEMPORARY BAN

The 17-time Mustard Belt winner ate a personal-low 54 HBD in 2010, and it was 96° outside. When Chestnut downed a record-setting 76 HBD in 2021, the weather was in the mid-70s, which he considers perfect weather for the contest. In 2020, the hot dog eating contest was moved indoors due to the COVID pandemic, and Chestnut ate a then-record 75 HBD.

Winner Without Joey Chestnut: James Webb (+650) via FanDuel

Patrick Bertoletti is the odds-on favorite in this market at -300 based partially on the fact that he won the 2024 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest when Chestnut was banned from competing because of his sponsorship deal with Impossible Foods. But last July 4th, Bertoletti only ate one more HBD than Webb (46.5-45.5).

Bertoletti’s implied win probability at -300 is 75%, and Webb’s implied win probability is 13% on the +650 odds. Simply put, Bertoletti isn’t 62% more likely to down more HBD than Webb, who is second behind Chestnut in MLE with three wins this season.

That includes two record-breaking performances by Webb in the ManorPalooza World Texas Sausage-Eating Championship (55 Texas sausages) and Kickoff To Summer Blackberry Moonshine Wing Championship (256 wings).

Gideon Oji (-145) > Radim Dvořáček

In his two Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contests, Dvořáček has downed 23 HBD in 2024 and 30.5 last year. Oji, on the other hand, has eaten 31+ HBD in eight of his 10 career glizzy contests, including three straight.

Dvořáček is 12th in MLE's rankings, and Oji is ninth. Oji won the 2026 National Sweet Corn Eating Championship, whereas Dvořáček doesn’t have a win this season.

Waltz calls out Iranian diplomat at UN following drone strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 15:47:15 -0400

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz scolded Iran during this week's U.N. Security Council meeting, saying Tehran "will not silence" the body following claims by the Islamic Republic's representative that council members were spreading falsehoods about its recent attack targeting neighboring Gulf states.

"Let me remind you where you are," Waltz told Iranian diplomat Amir Saeid Iravani. "This is the United States of America. This is the United Nations Security Council. You will not silence this body."

Waltz's remarks came during an emergency meeting of the council in response to drone and missile attacks targeting Bahrain and Kuwait Sunday after new U.S. airstrikes against Iran.

GULF COUNTRIES STRONGLY CONDEMN IRAN'S DRONE ATTACK ON BAHRAIN AS RISING TENSIONS THREATEN MOU

During his remarks, Iravani argued the council should not have met, while accusing the U.S., Bahrain and other members of lying.

"Once again, the representative of the United States has resorted to lies and disinformation against Iran in a desperate attempt to justify the US's unlawful acts of aggression," Iravani said.

He also rejected the "unfounded accusations made by certain Western members of the Council and the representative of Bahrain."

IRAN HARDLINER BEHIND US DEAL WARNS TEHRAN WON’T HONOR AGREEMENT IF TRUMP FAILS TO DELIVER

"Instead of addressing the root cause of the current crisis, they have ignored the unlawful aggression committed against Iran and sought to shift blame onto the victim," he added. "Their double standards and hypocritical behavior have deprived them of any credibility to lecture others."

In a post on X, Waltz reiterated his position.

"Iran will not silence us on our own soil," he wrote. "That might work in Tehran, but not in the UN Security Council. We will tell the truth."

HOW IRAN ATTACKS ARE FORCING THE PENTAGON TO RETHINK ITS DECADES-OLD MIDDLE EAST BASE STRATEGY

During the exchange, Waltz held up what he said were images of the aftermath of the Iranian attacks, including a family whose home in Bahrain was destroyed by a Shahed drone, a hotel full of tourists that was also hit and a building used by first responders that Waltz said was deliberately targeted.

"Are they lying?" Waltz said of the victims of the attack. "Is this hypocrisy? Is this what this council is here to denounce today? I ask the representative, are these lies? … I'd say not."

Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani, Bahrain's minister of foreign affairs, said that, since Feb. 28, the island nation has been subjected to 808 attacks comprising 203 ballistic missiles and 605 armed drones.

"These attacks deliberately targeted civilian facilities, critical infrastructure and residential areas, resulting in the deaths of three innocent civilians and injuries to 465 others," he said, disputing Tehran's claim that its aggression is directed solely against military objectives.

Washington and Tehran have repeatedly accused each other of violating a fragile ceasefire agreement. On June 27, President Donald Trump said U.S. forces struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations and coastal radar sites after Iran violated the deal.

The exchanges of fire began when an Iranian drone struck a merchant vessel off Oman last week and the U.S. military retaliated, officials said.

"It is very possible that they will never learn! There may come a point when we are no longer able to be reasonable, and will be forced to militarily complete the job that we very successfully started," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "If that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist!"

Experts ‘deeply’ concerned over Iran’s work at underground nuclear site

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 15:29:04 -0400

One of the leading American institutes devoted to research on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program sounded an alarm this week over the regime's uninspected underground site in the Zagros Mountains.

Inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) have not been allowed to visit the secret site, known as Pickaxe Mountain.

The highly fortified facility is casting serious doubt on Iran’s willingness to abide by the terms of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) reached with the Trump administration. The United States, together with Israel, launched Operation Epic Fury Feb. 28, 2026, targeting Iran’s nuclear and missile capabilities.

Experts from the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS) argue that halting work at Pickaxe Mountain and allowing IAEA inspectors access would be a key good-faith measure to test whether Iran is prepared to abandon its pattern of deception.

OBAMA-ERA INSPECTION FLAWS IN IRAN COULD PERSIST AS EXPERTS WARN OF NUCLEAR BLIND SPOTS

Spencer Faragasso, a senior fellow with the group who covers Iran, North Korea, illicit trade, and nuclear issues, wrote on X: "Important update by us at @TheGoodISIS. The ongoing work at Pickaxe Mountain is deeply concerning. This work has continued steadily since at least 2020. In my view, this is a hedge by Iran in case negotiations fail — they will then have a nuclear facility in a late stage of construction. We assessed that Pickaxe is likely large enough to hold an enrichment plant."

Iran has used facilities at Natanz, Fordow and Isfahan to enrich uranium, the key material for a nuclear weapons program.

Faragasso added, "If Iran is serious about negotiating, it should halt construction at Pickaxe Mountain as a token of good faith. But what can be expected from a regime as brutal and conniving as Iran’s?"

The institute posted a detailed analysis of new satellite imagery from late June 2026 showing continued activity at Pickaxe Mountain.

TRUMP ADMINISTRATION UNVEILS SWEEPING TERMS OF PROPOSED IRAN AGREEMENT

The institute wrote that "at Pickaxe Mountain, vehicle activity can be seen on the roads leading to the open set of Western tunnel portals, indicating that construction inside the tunnel complex, as well as hardening of the tunnel entrance, are ongoing. The MOU signed between the United States and Iran requires that Iran maintain the status quo, which should prohibit construction at any nuclear-related facility, including Pickaxe Mountain."

In late June, the IAEA declined to answer a detailed Fox News Digital query on whether it would seek access to the Pickaxe Mountain facility. According to the satellite imagery obtained by the institute, "at Natanz, little activity can be seen. The access points to the below-ground enrichment halls have not been repaired.

"The personnel entrances remain destroyed, and vehicle entrances remain severely damaged. A single vehicle can be seen on the road outside of the Pilot Fuel Enrichment Plant (PFEP), which was destroyed in June 2025 but was later covered by Iran."

The institute also reported, "As of June 29, 2026, there is no observed activity at Esfahan. The tunnel portals remain backfilled with dirt." ISIS tracked developments at the Fordow site, buried inside a mountain north of the holy Islamic city of Qom.

"At Fordow, as earlier reported by the Institute, between May 10 and May 18, Iran added passive defensive measures in the form of earthen/rocky mounds and other objects on the roads leading to the tunnel entrances. The alternating placements of the piles/objects are very precise, which creates a series of chicanes, indicating they are not intended as obstructions but rather to prevent rapid ingress and egress by any vehicle toward the tunnels."

The institute added, "The June 21 Vantor image shows that the objects along the road remain there. The tunnel portals also remain backfilled with dirt" at Fordow.

Erika Kirk hits back at NY Times newsletter about marriage and kids, accuses writer of missing the point

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 15:24:25 -0400

Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk and head of Turning Point USA, responded to a New York Times newsletter Friday on X, accusing it of missing the point on marriage and children.

"This @nytimes op-ed completely misses the point on the purpose of marriage and children and completely misrepresents my views in the process. The entire article is laced with viewing family through the lens of money and career as if those things bring fulfillment and purpose," Kirk wrote.

"When you’re on your death bed, your money and your career won’t be whispering in your ear 'I love you' as you take your last breath. The material goods and fortune of this world mean nothing when we go to our eternal resting place."

New York Times opinion writer Jessica Grose wrote the piece, "The Gap Between the Families We Have and the Ones Conservatives Want," and specifically cited Kirk's comments at the Hillsdale College commencement ceremony in May.

JD VANCE WALKS BACK CONTROVERSIAL ‘CHILDLESS CAT LADIES’ COMMENT ON 'THE VIEW' BUT DEFENDS FAMILY MESSAGE

Kirk said if her late husband were alive, he would have encouraged them to get married young, according to Grose.

She also said Charlie would have said, "Have more kids than you can afford." Grose pointed to backlash over Kirk's statement due to elevated gas and grocery prices.

"Kirk pitches her message as countercultural, and in a sense, it is. A 21-year-old married speaker at Turning Point’s Women’s Leadership Summit in June said she was going against the culture by proclaiming her husband as the head of her household and feminism as a 'psyop.' But a young marriage isn’t what most Americans want," Grose wrote.

Kirk said in her post that the author "conveniently leaves out the part of my Hillsdale commencement speech where I said "marry young, not rushed, but young."

"Encouraging more Americans to have families doesn’t have to involve a stubborn, unwanted return to a patriarchal, midcentury Christian idea of marriage," Grose argued. "By casting the ideal 21st-century relationship in antiquated terms, conservatives are ignoring the glaring reality of how Americans actually want to live and are living their lives."

Kirk said in her response that people shouldn't put off having kids.

YOUNG MEN ARE RETURNING TO CHURCH, AND IT COULD RESHAPE AMERICA’S FUTUREs

"We serve a God of order and when you live a life ordered there’s a double portion of grace. Meaning marriage first, then kids, and everything else. Timing matters because life is shorter than you might think, and you never know what could happen. The point is, don’t put it off. Don’t rush it or force it if it’s not right, but don’t put it off," Kirk wrote in her response to Grose's piece.

Kirk married her husband in 2021 at the age of 32 — Charlie Kirk was 27 at the time — which she neither viewed as too old nor too young but said she wished they met sooner and were able to start their family sooner.

"There is no such thing as perfect timing to have kids. Financial struggles are a part of life, but the problem is a lot of Americans are self-surviving, not self-sacrificing, and they expect to live a very distinct lifestyle based on what they see online. When Charlie encouraged young people to have more kids than they can afford, he wasn’t saying to recklessly bring a child into this world and have them on welfare. He was saying children aren’t a luxury item to have once you meet a certain tax bracket threshold. You don’t need a mansion in order to build a family," she said.

Grose cited Stephanie Coontz’s book, "For Better and Worse," throughout the piece, which argues that marriage varies across cultures and eras.

"I take conservatives at their word that they want more people to get married and for those people to have more children than they are currently having. But it makes absolutely no sense to create a definition of marriage that excludes the desires and ideals of a substantial majority of Americans," she said.

The New York Times did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment.

The tallest player ever selected in the NHL blew minds in his debut with the San Jose Sharks

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 15:06:48 -0400

This year's NHL Draft was fun. Lots of great stories, from Gavin McKenna going to the Leafs, Caleb Malhotra getting drafted by his old man's Vancouver Canucks, and Ottawa selecting Jaxon Cover with the 32nd pick, a player who hails from the Cayman Islands and only started playing ice hockey five years after starting in inline puck.

Then there's Alexander Karmanov out of Moldova, who became the tallest player ever selected in the NHL Draft at a towering 7'1".

That's a full three inches taller than the great Zdeno Chara, so, in other words, he's downright a giant.

MAPLE LEAFS TOP PICK GAVIN MCKENNA KICKS OFF HIS TIME IN TORONTO WITH A ROUGH CEREMONIAL PITCH

Karmanov was selected by the San Jose Sharks in the seventh round after playing last season in the OHL's North Bay Battalion. In 2027, he's committed to playing for one of the most up-and-coming programs in college hockey at Penn State

But, there are some questions about his NHL readiness, and we got our first taste of what that could look like at the San Jose Sharks development camp.

The big knock on Karmanov — as is the case for pretty much any big fella — is his skating. Sure, I get that's a big part of being a hockey player, but also if you're drafting a guy as tall as Shaq, you're not expecting Connor McDavid-like rocket boosters on the back of his skates.

ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!

And while some clips of Karmanov's skating got clowned on social media, you've got to see what he did in the Sharks' prospect game, because while his skating may not be fast and it's certainly not pretty, it sure seems effective.

He's easy to spot, and I certainly didn't expect to see him start chugging 200 feet up the ice, but when he did, there was no stopping him.

How does an average-sized NHLer go at him?

He's got a mile-long reach, and if he shields the puck with his body, you may as well skate to the bench for a line change because you're not getting the puck.

If he leans into his strengths like that, I think he could actually work out in the NHL.

I know it's a prospects game and something like that wouldn't likely work against NHL regulars, but remember, he's still a couple of years away from being an NHLer himself.

I think Karmanov is going to continue to be a problem for every team he plays against in the OHL, and then at Penn State in '27.

US military deploys MTVRs, airlifts aid to Venezuela following deadly earthquakes

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 14:57:23 -0400

The U.S. military continued relief efforts in Venezuela on Friday with the delivery of the last of 10 U.S. Marine Corps Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacements (MTVRs) to assist victims of last week's deadly earthquakes in addition to providing other humanitarian assistance.

On Friday, a U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster cargo aircraft transported the last of the 10 MTVRs being used to assist disaster victims and relief personnel.

The MTVR crews will support the logistics efforts to deliver urgently needed assistance to local communities, according to U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM).

More than 1,000 MTVRs have been in service in Iraq and Afghanistan and have been heavily used in contingency operations as well as missions supporting humanitarian operations, according to the Marine Corps.

At Simón Bolívar International Airport, which serves the capital of Caracas, the U.S. military’s Humanitarian Assistance Coordination Center (HACC) was working with local authorities, the State Department and other agencies on the ground to support disaster relief assistance.

Marine, Navy and Army vertical-lift and rotary-wing aircraft were also conducting airlift and transport flights, including delivering pre-packaged, self-contained meals for earthquake survivors and displaced citizens, SOUTHCOM said in an update Friday.

The USS Fort Lauderdale remains at the Port of La Guaira, supporting communications efforts and serving as a distribution point.

The Trump administration has moved in to support the South American nation after 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes last week, mobilizing $150 million in humanitarian relief.

The administration has also assembled a Disaster Assistance Response Team composed of more than 250 people, including three specialized Urban Search-and-Rescue teams.

The death toll from the natural disaster stands at nearly 2,000 and continues to rise.

Trump floats inviting Obama, Biden, Bush to the White House to watch football

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 14:46:32 -0400

President Donald Trump suggested during Friday's episode of "Storytime with the Second Lady" podcast that former presidents should have a reunion with him at the White House to watch football.

As Trump flipped to a page showing a president hosting a live viewing of the Super Bowl at the White House, he told second lady Usha Vance that it gave him an idea.

"Maybe I should invite Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, with the Bushes — or Bush. Maybe I should invite some of those people to watch a football game together," he suggested. "Wouldn't that be a nice story? The press would go wild."

"A president reunion? That would be fun!" the second lady agreed.

DISNEY AND USHA VANCE TEAM UP TO HONOR MILITARY FAMILIES AND SURPRISE THEM WITH MAGICAL GIFTS

The podcast features Vance, the wife of Vice President JD Vance, interviewing guests as they narrate books to children via YouTube. Visitors have ranged from race car driver Danica Patrick to the Artemis II astronauts and, most recently, Trump.

Trump narrated a book, "Presidents Play!" published by the White House Historical Association, which showed what presidents throughout American history liked to do in their spare time.

Trump, rather than read the text, offered humorous commentary on various past presidents as he flipped to their pages, such as that of William Howard Taft as he tossed a baseball.

"He was a large man, very large. And he loved baseball. He'd go to baseball games, loved the hot dogs at the baseball games," he said. "He was our heaviest president, and I have to be careful 'cause I don't want to supersede his record. And a thing like that would be possible if I allowed it to happen."

BILL CLINTON REVEALS HOW HE FEELS ABOUT UPCOMING MIDTERMS AFTER SOCIALIST VICTORIES

He encouraged those watching to stay in good shape.

On another page, he showed former President Bill Clinton jogging on a track that was built for him during his tenure at the White House.

"That's nice. I didn't even know that until recently, but he had a track built at the White House," Trump said. "I don't think I'll ever do that. I don't see myself doing that. I don't know. But he actually was a nice guy. I like Bill Clinton a lot. I still do."

Trump's living presidential predecessors, including Republican George W. Bush, Clinton and Biden, gathered at Obama's presidential center grand opening last month. Trump, who has been harshly critical of Obama and vice versa, was not invited.

Knicks champion says he hopes 'truth comes out' after leaving team for Eastern Conference rival

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 14:43:12 -0400

The New York Knicks' first championship team in 53 years is now starting to look a little bit different.

They were able to hang on to Jose Alvarado, but the first domino to fall was defensive big man Mitchell Robinson, who signed a three-year deal with the Boston Celtics.

Several of Robinson's former Knick teammates, including Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart and OG Anunoby, commented on his farewell post on Instagram, but Robinson's response to Anunoby was rather telling.

Anunoby commented with a sad emoji, and Robinson said he "tried" to get back with the Knicks, hinting the feeling was not mutual.

"I tried brother I didn't want this to happen hopefully the truth comes out at some point. I'm gonna miss you big dawg! Keep being great," Robinson replied.

Team owner James Dolan said almost immediately after the Knicks won the title that he had no interest in approaching the NBA's second apron of payroll, calling it "suicidal."

That alone was enough to tell fans that a roster reconstruction was looming, especially with Brunson about to make up for the massive pay cut he took to help the Knicks win it all.

Robinson grabbed the final offensive rebound off a missed free throw that all but clinched the Knicks' title against the San Antonio Spurs last month.

Robinson saw both the good and the bad with the Knicks as a second-round draft pick in 2018; in his first season, they were 17-65.

NYC rent board dissenter warns Mamdani-backed freeze could hurt affordable housing over time: 'Slow burn'

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 14:32:01 -0400

Arpit Gupta, the only member of New York City's Rent Guidelines Board (RGB) to vote against the rent freeze, told Fox News Digital the policy could gradually push older rent-stabilized buildings into disrepair by depriving landlords of revenue needed for capital improvements.

Gupta is also worried the freeze, a central campaign promise from Mayor Zohran Mamdani, could make it more difficult for landlords to pay their bills.

"It's a little bit of a slow burn," said Gupta, an associate finance professor at New York University’s business school. "The risk is that the buildings do go under more distress. There are a variety of responses. One is ... deferred maintenance, which will worsen the physical conditions of buildings.

"There are other avenues of distress, like going behind on mortgage payments, insurance payments, eventually property taxes, which leaves the property to be transferred in ownership to a bank or to the city, possibly for a tax lien sale."

NEW YORK PROPERTY OWNER OPENS UP ABOUT THE IMPACT OF RENT FREEZES

RGB Chair Chantella Mitchell, whom Mamdani appointed in February, acknowledged in her statement after the June 25 vote that landlords are facing soaring property tax and insurance costs but argued that most "remain able to meet rising costs."

Gupta, first appointed to the board by former Mayor Eric Adams in 2022, does not dispute Mitchell's claim that many landlords are doing fine.

Rather, he argues that the financial strain on the city's rent-stabilized housing stock is not the same all around, with older buildings that rely almost entirely on regulated rents facing a much greater burden than newer, mixed-income properties.

The board under Mamdani went further than it did under former Mayor Bill de Blasio, whose administration froze rents three times — in 2015, 2016 and 2020 — but only for one-year leases. The current freeze will affect roughly 1 million rent-stabilized apartments and applies to one- and two-year leases that run from Oct. 1, 2026, to Sept. 30, 2027.

As a result, landlords could, in the longest possible case, have to wait until late September 2029 before they can legally raise rents.

NYC COUNCILMAN AND MAMDANI ALLY CHI OSSÉ ARRESTED DURING EVICTION PROTEST, VIDEO SHOWS

Gupta considers the blanket rent freeze a blunt tool that doesn't adequately address the affordability crisis. Instead, he favors targeting aid to struggling tenants while allowing financially-strained buildings to continue raising rents.

"About 30% of the tenants in rent-stabilized housing make six figures or more. At the same time, many individuals in market-rate housing are below the poverty line," Gupta said. "So, to have a system that provides so many benefits for one sector of the housing stock while completely leaving out the market-rate tenants — whose rents might actually go up because of the dynamics of freezing one part of the housing stock — means that we have an incompletely targeted program."

New York City already has programs that freeze rents for qualifying senior citizens and disabled individuals. Gupta said these programs should be expanded to low-income residents more broadly, rather than limiting relief to rent-stabilized tenants.

Another worry Gupta has is that the rent freeze will incentivize landlords to leave units vacant.

AMERICA'S HOUSING MARKET COULD RUN OUT OF SOMETHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN HOMES

In early June, Gothamist reported that more than 57,000 stabilized apartments were vacant in April 2025. At the time, state housing officials said this number did not offer a complete picture since some of the units included in the count were in the process of getting new tenants.

But Gupta argued that some of those apartments are being left vacant because owners cannot recover the cost of rehabilitating them before renting them again, a problem he believes will be exacerbated by the rent freeze.

Many landlords point to the 2019 Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act as the main catalyst for falling revenues. The law eliminated the so-called "vacancy bonus," which allowed owners of stabilized units to raise the rent by up to 20% after a tenant left. Landlords say the change made it harder to recoup the cost of renovating apartments before renting them to a new tenant.

Gupta told Fox News Digital he sees where Mitchell and his colleagues are coming from and acknowledged that many tenants are struggling to pay their rent despite the board’s past efforts to ease affordability pressures.

"In the five years I’ve been on this board … we have set rents below our estimate of building cost increases, we have set rents below CPI and we've even set rents below wage growth in the city," Gupta said.

Despite that, the city's spending on one-shot deals to cover tenants' back rent more than quintupled between 2022 and 2025, rising from $102 million to $555.8 million, according to the rental board’s income and affordability study.

The same study found that, last year, 62% of evictions occurred in buildings with rent-stabilized units, a key data point the board used to bolster its case for a rent freeze.

While Gupta disagrees with the board's policy choice, he rejected the notion that the outcome was preordained after Mamdani reshaped the municipal body. The mayor appointed six of the nine members of the board in February, and all of his picks voted for the rent freeze.

"From my understanding, the administration did not direct or try to influence the vote directly," Gupta said. "My fellow board members tell me that they were independently appointed.

"What I also hear from board members who joined is that in the vetting process, as they were entering the board, they weren't asked or pressured on their position on the rent freeze," Gupta said.

Gupta’s view is not shared by Christina Smyth, another Adams appointee who resigned from the board shortly before the vote. In an open letter posted to social media, she said the board was "rebuilt," was no longer a "fact-finding body" and that it was "required to deliver a rent freeze."

Going forward, Gupta’s main concern is that the rent freeze will be extended far beyond what he believes is reasonable, given that Mamdani promised that he would "freeze the rent every year I’m in office."

"I've had many discussions with other members of the board, and I've asked, ‘If you vote for the rent freeze now, what are the conditions under which you would vote for rental increases?’" he said.

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP

Up to this point, he said, he has not gotten a clear answer on that question, and some board members told him they need to wait for future data to make an informed decision.

"I'm not sure whether all the board members believe that's the future or if maybe the future is just more freezes. Freeze after freeze for four years, as Mamdani campaigned on. That's a very different picture."

Fox News Digital asked Mitchell whether she viewed the rent freeze as a temporary measure and about concerns that it could worsen the financial condition of some rent-stabilized buildings. She declined to comment beyond the statement she issued after the vote.

As Americans around the nation celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary this week, a parade that had been slated to take place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Friday was called off due to scorching temperatures expected in the city.

Welcome America Inc. noted the cancellation in a post on X, which the city of Philadelphia reposted.

"Due to the extreme heat, the Salute to Independence Semiquincentennial Parade is cancelled," the post noted.

The X account for the National Weather Service Philadelphia/Mount Holly noted in a morning post Friday, "If Philadelphia Int'l Airport reaches our forecast high of 104° today, it will be the hottest temp recorded there since July 3, 1966."

City Health Commissioner Palak Raval-Nelson extended an ongoing "Heat Health Emergency" through 8 p.m. Sunday, according to the city's Department of Public Health.

The parade had been slated to include floats and marching bands, according to an event description.

Todd Marcocci and Under the Sun Productions, along with all the parade groups, have been working tirelessly to design something truly historic, and having to cancel it at the last minute is heartbreaking for all of us," DelBene noted in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital.

Olivia Dunne had a wild 'White Party' while Paul Skenes got shelled, rooftop fight & Jutta Leerdam fires heat

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 15:30:07 -0400

Hello? Anyone out there? Is anyone in class today?

For those of you who didn't skip, congrats! That's dedication. I'll be be honest, if I wasn't working today, I'd be so far from the internet I'd probably forget it even existed.

Nothing like Fourth of July Eve, right? An underrated mini-holiday. Christmas Eve is the GOAT. The night before Thanksgiving is a good one. But the day before the Fourth, especially on the magical year when it falls on a Friday? Elite stuff. This is why we grind in June and keep our heads down during Pride month.

For days — and weekends — like the one we're about to get. Happy 250th, America. Let's roll.

Welcome to a Friday Nightcaps — the one where Olivia Dunne parties her tail off while Paul Skenes get lit up like a firecracker.

What else? I've got the best of the rest from a big week of #content, the WNBA ladies sent Caitlin Clark a DISGUSTING message this week, and how about we end the day with some patriotism, courtesy of Dale Earnhardt Jr.?

DALE EARNHARDT JR. BROUGHT NASCAR BACK TO LIFE 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEKEND, BUT THE PAIN IS BACK

Any objections? Of course not! This is America, after all.

Grab you a rum punch because the internet tells me that was the most popular drink back in 1776, and settle in for a Friday 'Cap!

Olivia Dunne had herself a big night at the white party, which always sounds hilarious

From the wokes over at Google:

In 1776, colonists drank a staggering amount of alcohol, with rum serving as the most popular spirit. Because water was frequently unsafe and tea was politically boycotted, everyday favorites included rum punch, hard cider, and ale. Coffee and hot chocolate were also highly popular.

Rum was the undisputed king of colonial spirits. Because it was distilled from Caribbean molasses, it was deeply tied to the "taxation without representation" protests that sparked the war. People drank rum punch at almost every gathering, often sharing from a single communal bowl.

There you have it! Can't wait to grab me a ladle and dig into a nice bowl of rum punch this weekend. That stuff is dangerous, by the way. One can turn into five fairly quickly if you're not paying attention. Trust me.

OK, that's enough history for today. It's a holiday Friday. We don't need a history lesson. We need a white party!

No, it's not what you think. Fanatics founder Michael Rubin throws an annual "White Party" every year, which is basically just a party for the richest people in America and they all have to wear white.

Why? I have no idea. Seems a little cultish to me. As always, the stars were OUT at Rubin's Southhampton house, including Olivia Dunne, who was there solo because Paul Skenes was busy getting shelled in Philadelphia.

Brutal.

What a fight!

Goodness gracious. What in the world has happened to Paul Skenes this year? He got rocked in his first start of the season against the Mets, but settled in nicely after that and everything seemed rosy. But the last two weeks have been atrocious, to the tune of 11 earned runs in his last nine innings.

Olivia Dunne, meanwhile, is up in Southhampton partying her tail off with Jake Paul's fiancee, Olympian Jutta Leerdam.

Don't love the vibes right now around Paul. Some say his velo is down, which always makes me queasy with these young pitchers who throw 100 mph every pitch. I don't want to say it, but ... we're all thinking it.

Let's hope this is just a blip. America is better when Paul Skenes is embarrassing hitters with Livvy in the stands pounding Miller Lites.

OK, let's get to the best content from a big week. First up? Let's head up to the rooftop and smash some SKULLS:

Caitlin Hate Tour & Dale at Daytona

What a week! And goodness, what a fight. Never quite seen that before. How about that one guy who gets thrown off the roof like a ragdoll? Just humiliating. I'd run for the hills after that and pray I never saw any of them again.

OK, let's quickly rapid-fire this Friday class into a big weekend and get outta here. We've all checked out at this point, right? It's all performative.

First up? Let's check in on the Caitlin Clark Hate Tour as it continues to roll on through on another week:

Incredible. Those insufferable girls voted Caitlin Clark the 11th-best guard in the WNBA.

Eleventh!!!

The fans voted Clark as the second-best guard in the league, behind Paige Bueckers. That's fair. The media voted Clark as the third-best guard in the league. Again, pretty fair.

Her fellow WNBA players, amazingly, ranked her 11th, which is somehow worse than last year when they put her ninth.

They really hate her, don't they? REALLY hate her. It's remarkable, especially given she has made these scornful women richer than they ever thought possible. A rising tide lifts all boats, right?

Wrong, apparently.

There is no world that exists where Caitlin Clark is the 11th-best guard in the WNBA. It's not possible. Have you all watched a WNBA game recently? Heaven help you if you have to watch Angel Reese play for five minutes.

And you're telling me that Caitlin Clark isn't one of the best players in the league? Come on!

Disgusting.

PS: Clark spoke today for the first time since getting mugged, for those interested:

Shockingly, Caitlin was the most well-spoken out of everyone whose talked! Didn't see that one coming.

And no, that was NOT OutKick or FOX who wrote that stupid headline. It was the wokes over at the New York Times.

Again, shocking.

OK, that's it for today — and this week. Happy Fourth of July, everyone. Happy 250th, America.

Take us home, Dale Jr.

Twenty-five years ago this weekend! Nuts.

Interpol issues red notice for Ukrainian woman wanted for Monaco apartment bombing targeting oligarch

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 14:18:53 -0400

The International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) issued a red notice Friday for Anastasiia Berezovska, a 39-year-old Ukrainian national suspected of bombing a Monaco apartment building that reportedly targeted a Russian-linked Ukrainian oligarch.

The June 30 apartment building explosion, according to numerous media reports, injured Vadym Yermolaiev, a Ukrainian-born construction magnate.

While declining to identify any of the victims by name, Monaco public prosecutor Stéphane Thibault also revealed the explosion injured a woman and a 13-year-old child in the apartment who media reports widely claim to be members of Yermolaiev's family.

'PARCEL BOMB' EXPLODES IN MONACO RESIDENTIAL AREA, LEAVING 2 CRITICALLY INJURED: REPORTS

Berezovska, according to Interpol, is now wanted on charges of attempted murder, depositing an explosive device on a public highway with criminal intent and criminal association.

Interpol identified the Ukrainian national as a dark-haired German-speaking woman who possibly has a tattoo of a snake on her arm.

The 39-year-old suspect was initially believed to be a heavy-set man. Monaco Deputy Prosecutor Morgan Raymond even initially referred to the suspect in masculine terms.

"He stood up a few meters ahead of the victims, placed an explosive device taken from his shopping bag on the entrance steps of the building, then turned to confirm the presence of the three victims before triggering the explosion using a remote control," Raymond said at an initial news conference after the incident.

RUSSIA UNLEASHES NEARLY 600 MISSILES AND DRONES ON KYIV IN DEADLIEST STRIKE SINCE MAY

Prosecutors reviewed footage of the days leading up to the explosion, finding that a man wearing a fishing hat repeatedly cased the apartment building and surrounding area. However, on June 28, the man was absent from security footage. Instead, a woman — who prosecutors now believe to be Berezovska — followed the same patterns as the man.

"The repeated reconnaissance operations and the pauses made in front of the building clearly demonstrate the intention to specifically target the three victims," Raymond said.

Investigators tracked her escape across the Monaco-France border, through Italy and into Germany, where authorities are now actively looking for her. They raided her Frankfurt apartment Thursday.

Raymond noted that the sophistication of her explosive device gives prosecutors reason to believe she did not act alone.

"The relative sophistication of the explosive device and the modus operandi appear to indicate that the person who placed the device was not acting alone," Morgan said.

Though authorities have provided no motive, Yermolaiev's status as a sanctioned former Ukrainian is notable.

The 58-year-old construction tycoon renounced his Ukrainian citizenship in 2017, Ukrainian media reported, and has been a citizen of Cyprus since 2019.

In 2023, the Ukrainian government sanctioned him for allegedly continuing to engage with Russia, paying taxes to Moscow and facilitating business transactions through his liquor business in Crimea, a Ukrainian peninsula which Russia annexed in 2014.

FBI announces 305 arrests, 24 missing children recovered in Chicago during Operation New Dawn

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 13:59:11 -0400

FBI Director Kash Patel detailed a historic cross-agency operation that resulted in the arrest of over 300 suspects in the Chicago area over 60 days.

"Operation New Dawn represents a massive, whole-of-government approach under President Trump’s leadership to cracking down on violent crimes and crimes against children in great American cities," Patel told Fox News Digital in an exclusive statement.

"This was a sweeping operation in Chicago that brought together 11 different federal agencies across the government who worked together to execute 305 arrests and recover 24 children — many of whom had been reported kidnapped or missing — as well as charging subjects with robbery, kidnapping, drug trafficking, child exploitation and more.

"The success of this op and more to come through initiatives like Summer Heat 2.0 should be a clear message that this FBI, our partners and the Justice Department led by AG Todd Blanche are full throttle on crushing criminal networks in this country no matter where they are."

KASH PATEL TOUTS FBI 'FULL-THROTTLE MISSION' AFTER OPERATION SPRING CLEANING YIELDS 615 INDICTMENTS/COMPLAINTS

The agencies involved included the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), according to a statement from the United States Attorney's Office of the Northern District of Illinois.

Aside from the robbers, kidnappers and drug traffickers Patel detailed, other suspects swept up in the operation included those involved in gun trafficking, gun offenses and immigration violations, according to the U.S. attorney's statement.

The statement described the operation as "badgeless," noting that the numerous federal agencies collaborated "under the banner of the United States flag as opposed to the shield of any agency."

U.S. Attorney Andrew S. Boutros said the operation and the collaboration it induced represented a new era of law enforcement in America.

"It is my view that to combat violence, federal law enforcement must move at the speed of violence," Boutros said in a statement. "The remarkable success of Operation New Dawn resoundingly proves that point. Chicago’s federal anti-violence apparatus united under one banner — the United States flag and not the shield, badge, banner or logo of any agency — to make their presence felt on the streets of Chicago and make it known that they are a force to be reckoned with in the battle against violence."

ATF Special Agent in Charge in Chicago Christopher Amon concurred.

DOJ SAYS 11 MIGRANTS INDICTED IN MULTI-STATE SEX TRAFFICKING, DRUG, FIREARMS CASE

"Law enforcement has always been, and always will be, a team sport," Amon said in a statement. "The success of Operation New Dawn reflects the leadership of the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the trust, commitment and collaboration among our Chicago federal law enforcement partners. Together, we made a meaningful impact by removing shooters and other violent offenders from our streets, making Chicago safer for all."

The cooperation enabled the agencies to sweep up criminals like Felipe Dejesus Gomez Ramirez, who HSI noted is a convicted murderer and illegal alien.

New Dawn operators also arrested David Collins and Tyrone Thomas, who authorities say are members of Chicago's Traveling Vice Lords criminal gang who were deeply involved in drug trafficking. Both were federally charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute heroin and fentanyl.

"Operation New Dawn demonstrates the power of coordinated law enforcement efforts to address the interconnected threats of violent crime and drug trafficking," Todd C. Smith, special agent in charge of the DEA Chicago Field Division said in a statement.

"Through the Homeland Security Task Force and in partnership with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, federal, state and local law enforcement agencies combined intelligence, resources and expertise to target individuals and criminal networks that threaten public safety. Reducing violent crime remains one of DEA’s top strategic priorities, and the significant drug seizures resulting from this operation underscore the close relationship between violence and drug trafficking activity. By working together to disrupt criminal organizations, remove dangerous drugs from our communities and hold offenders accountable, we are enhancing public safety while advancing our commitment to a Fentanyl Free America."

The operation, which began in earnest May 1, has so far resulted in 179 criminal defendants being charged in federal court in 140 newly-filed criminal cases.

Twenty-four children, many of whom were kidnapped, were located and safely returned home, according to the statement.

Mamdani blasts ICE agents, Elon Musk and 'supremacy' in America 250 speech ahead of July 4 weekend

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 13:15:19 -0400

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani took aim at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, Elon Musk and what he described as the "arena of supremacy" in the United States during an immigration-themed America 250 speech on Friday ahead of Fourth of July weekend.

Flanked by eight recently naturalized U.S. citizens, Mamdani invoked the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and America's history of immigration before turning his rhetoric on elements of today's U.S. Mamdani also blasted the "world's first trillionaire," a milestone Musk achieved with the long-awaited Initial Public Offering (IPO) of SpaceX last month.

"We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world, one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more," Mamdani said, without naming Musk. "We see monopolies that dominate every industry, and oligarchs who buy elections. We see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by our undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans.

FETTERMAN WARNS MAMDANI RISKS 'CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS' BY VOWING TO DEFY SCOTUS IMMIGRATION RULING

"We see a nation whose immense wealth has been built by those with calloused, dirt-streaked hands, those who toil on factory floors and chisel into stone. And we see a nation that has allowed so much of that wealth to be held instead in the soft hands of a precious few."

Mamdani, who was sitting at George Washington's desk during the remarks, also praised the legacy of immigrants, claiming they have overcome riots "aimed at their very existence," to create lives in New York.

"Over the years that followed, despite laws enacted by the federal government to bar their entry, despite sweatshop fires that killed hundreds of women, despite riots aimed at their very existence, immigrants made homes here in New York City, and they helped to make New York City," the mayor said.

"That legacy of every generation of Americans insisting that the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness extends to them, too, is no relic of the past. It carried millions of Black Americans north during the Great Migration. It drew hundreds of thousands of Puerto Ricans to New York City after the Second World War. It invited countless others from the West Indies and South Asia and West Africa and across the world. And it is what brought my family to this city when I was seven years old."

ZOHRAN MAMDANI PRAISED FOR 'FANTASTIC' QUESTION-DODGING ON PRESIDENTIAL ELIGIBILITY

Mamdani did not mention his own family's wealth in the speech. His father was an elite Harvard academic, and his mother an acclaimed film director.

"My family did not arrive by boat, although we saw the Statue of Liberty from the window of the plane. Even from the air, we could make out the promise of America, the promise of the beautiful patriotic work of rendering America, year after year, a little more faithful to its founding ideals," he said.

In his speech, Mamdani blasted those with "power and influence," who he lamented have written American history.

"There is a term so often used to describe our nation and those who have shaped it. American exceptionalism. American exceptionalism, the conventional wisdom tells us, makes our freedom a little more free. It is how we dug the Erie Canal and irrigated the West. (It) is why children in faraway lands grow up dreaming of one day moving here. And, yet, the irony is that the story of America has so often been written by those who were told by others with power and influence and wealth that they were anything but exceptional," Mamdani said. "For generation after generation, we have been told that when the world has sent its people to our shores, it has not sent its best.

"It sent Puritans and Sikhs and Quakers and Muslims and Jewish people who were banished for praying the wrong way, worshiping the wrong gods, angering the wrong people. It sent peasants and serfs from slums and shuttles who were treated as less because they hardly owned clothes, let alone land. It sent immigrants from whom power was something someone else had," he continued.

"We are told that America is exceptional because we are richer, stronger, more powerful than everyone else. The truth, my friends, is that America is exceptional because here nothing is fixed into place."

Mamdani referenced how he became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2018. Mamdani was born in Uganda in 1991 and moved to New York when he was 7. The mayor is a dual U.S.-Ugandan citizen.

"Nearly a decade ago, I too felt what you feel the joy of no longer being just a New Yorker but an American too. You each hold a special power. The power to determine what America means," the mayor said, speaking to the recently naturalized citizens by his side.

"The powerful have always known their answer. America, in their view, is an arena of supremacy where only a select few are allowed freedom," Mamdani said. "Where not all are created equal. America, if you ask them, becomes less the more people it welcomes. America, they will tell you, belongs only to those with the right accent or the right shade of skin. The rest of us, they insist, should be grateful for merely being allowed to visit. How small they are, how weak, how unoriginal. At every moment in our past, those who led through exclusion and isolation have tried to win power and enrich themselves by turning us against one another."

Mamdani also claimed ICE was invading New York neighborhoods.

"We see America each time neighbors link arms with neighbors without asking how long they have lived here or what papers they have as ICE invades our neighborhoods," he added. "We see America each time those young and old stand in the beating rain or the stifling heat to cast their ballots. We see America each time working people demand more, not just for themselves, but for their fellow Americans."

"There are some who respond to those who ask for more from America with a simple refrain. 'Love it or leave it,' they say. But patriotism has never been about pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent," Mamdani said. "It is every March led under the heavy sun. It is every protest held a decade before its time. It is precisely because we love this nation that we will not leave it."

Mamdani ended his speech with a rousing call to America's greatness.

"What power each of us holds to bring America ever closer to the greatness so many have seen when they looked upon these shores. The greatness that for 250 years has been America. Thank you. God bless America. God bless New York City. And happy Fourth of July," he concluded.

Nationals pitcher forced to apologize for perceived racism after opponent threw his helmet at him

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 13:12:20 -0400

Sports are so soft now. Basketball is full of crybabies flopping around like fish out of water, quarterbacks can’t get touched without a 15-yard penalty and a threat of jail time, and baseball is, I guess, filled with players that see classic trash talk as a racist microaggression. I’m talking about the benches-clearing incident between Washington Nationals pitcher Cade Cavalli and Red Sox catcher Willson Contreras.

On Wednesday, Cavalli struck out Contreras looking in the fourth inning. As Contreras walked away, Cavalli yelled, "Sit down, boy," prompting Contreras to turn back toward the mound. The exchange escalated quickly, with both benches and bullpens emptying. Contreras then threw his helmet in Cavalli’s direction before teammates and coaches separated everyone. Although Cavalli remained in the game, Contreras, Miles Mikolas, Nate Eaton, and Boston interim manager Chad Tracy were ejected. Contreras was in the wrong. He lost his cool. But, Cavalli has been painted as the bad guy in this scenario simply because he used the word, "boy."

Liberal sports media and bad actors jumped on this story stating that "boy" has a history of being used as a racial slur toward Black men. Contreras is Venezuelan, though, and this kind of nomenclature has been used by players for decades, regardless of race. If you played sports, and you’re reading this, you’re thinking the same thing: "What’s the big deal?"

MLB DROPS HAMMER ON BOSTON'S WILLSON CONTRERAS WITH HEFTY SUSPENSION AFTER HELMET-THROWING INCIDENT

Contreras didn’t do Cavalli any favors afterward when he said he did not know whether Cavalli intended the remark in a racist way and said he would let MLB handle the matter. Then, on Thursday, Cavalli publicly apologized, saying he did not intend the comment as a racial insult, acknowledged the word’s historical context, and expressed regret for using it:

"I’m extremely torn up about the way that things were perceived," Cavalli said. "Obviously, there was no ill intention behind that. It hurt my heart, knowing that, if there’s a 13-year-old Black kid in D.C. that sees that — that looked up to me and thinks that he perceived it in a way that wasn’t intended the way that it came out, and then he’s not looking up to me anymore. That hurts my heart."

My goodness. What a joke. Why are we acting like "boy" is the same as the n-word? Plus, we’re jumping through some major intersectionality hoops if we are now going to bring up derogatory words toward Black people and lump Venezuelans into the same boat.

"I’m extremely torn up about the way that things were perceived," Cavalli explained further. "Obviously, there was no ill intention behind that. It hurt my heart, knowing that, if there’s a 13-year-old Black kid in D.C. that sees that - that looked up to me and thinks that he perceived it in a way that wasn’t intended the way that it came out, and then he’s not looking up to me anymore. That hurts my heart."

ESPN MUST HOLD STEPHEN A ACCOUNTABLE AFTER DOUBLING DOWN ON RACIST REMARKS ABOUT WHITE BASKETBALL PLAYERS

What Cavalli said was nothing to apologize for. If anything, he should’ve called that accusation ridiculous and an attempt at character assassination in a situation where Contreras was the aggressor. There’s no need to go through a struggle session and show remorse for words that don’t need further explanation.

You know who has used the term "boy" and the media didn’t lose their mind about it? LeBron James. He said Austin Reaves doesn’t "play like a white boy", while both we’re speaking to Steve Nash on James’ podcast.

Golden State Warriors guard Jimmy Butler yelled, "WHITE BOY! WHITE BOY! EVERY TIME! SHUT UP! SHUT THE F*CK UP" to Brooklyn Nets forward Danny Wolf after an and-one in 2025.

Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant told an Oklahoma City fan last season, "I know where you live, white boy." Do you get the point? Cavalli was not using this as a racial slur, but plenty of black athletes have used it to demean white people without the league getting involved, without suspensions, and zero fines for their offenses.

KIRK HERBSTREIT GOES OFF WITH COMPLAINTS ABOUT MODERN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL, GETS EVERYTHING WRONG

On Thursday, MLB suspended both Cavalli and Contreras for seven games and fined them an undisclosed amount, determining that both players played major roles in escalating the confrontation. In my opinion, MLB suspending Cavalli seven games is insane. Watch the video. Contreas uses his helmet as a weapon, but Cavalli gets the same punishment? Come on, now.

Nationals pitcher Miles Mikolas received a five-game suspension, while Red Sox outfielder Nate Eaton was suspended for three games. Both Cavalli and Contreras were permitted to appeal their suspensions.

Sports in 2026 shouldn’t be this soft. It's just silly virtue signaling.

Cole Hauser says his family helped shape Montana as fans follow Taylor Sheridan from Treasure State to Texas

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 13:00:59 -0400

Cole Hauser's connection to Montana runs deeper than the "Yellowstone" franchise.

Hauser told Fox News Digital that while Taylor Sheridan's hit franchise introduced millions of viewers to Montana, his family's ties to the Treasure State stretch back nearly 140 years.

"Montana, my family has been there since 1886. So, the Hauser legacy there is huge," Hauser said. "I mean, Samuel T. Hauser was the seventh governor of Montana, helped start that state. So, going back there felt like a homecoming for me."

Samuel T. Hauser served as the seventh governor of the Montana Territory and was a businessman whose investments in banking, mining and railroads helped shape the territory's early development. For Hauser, stepping into the character meant filming in a place that had already been woven into his family's history long before television cameras arrived.

Now, as the Western franchise expands into Texas with "Dutton Ranch," experts say the show's tourism boom may be expanding with it.

"Traveling to the sets of popular TV shows, movies and even books has increased substantially over the past few years," Adam Duckworth, president and founder of Travelmation, told Fox News Digital. "We have even given this travel trend a name: set-jetting. This is when fans 'jet' to the sets of their favorite shows."

According to Duckworth, few modern television shows have influenced American travel quite like "Yellowstone."

"'Yellowstone' was one of the first shows to spark this trend," he said. "Fans would watch the Dutton family in those breathtaking landscapes and want to see them in person with their own eyes. Yellowstone National Park and the surrounding areas saw a boom in tourism as the show increased in popularity and next we expect that to happen in Texas thanks to the spin-off 'Dutton Ranch.'"

Sheridan's original series premiered in 2018 and steadily evolved from a cable drama into one of television's biggest franchises. Along the way, Montana became more than a backdrop. Endless mountain ranges, sprawling ranches and wide-open skies became as recognizable to viewers as the Dutton family itself.

TAYLOR SHERIDAN’S 'YELLOWSTONE’ FORMULA TURNS COUNTRY STARS INTO SCENE-STEALERS AS MORGAN WADE MAKES HER DEBUT

Hauser believes the landscape played an enormous role in the show's success.

WATCH:COLE HAUSER SAYS RIP WHEELER IS A ‘THROWBACK TO THE OLD-SCHOOL AMERICAN MAN’

"You know, 10 years ago when we started this, it was a really kind of a grassroot show in Montana and then, you know, we grew out to the edges, Los Angeles, now New York and now the world," Hauser told Fox News Digital.

The actor said he's witnessed the show's global reach firsthand while traveling overseas.

"We were just in Europe, and it's amazing to watch, you know, the Germans dress up as cowboys, the English," Hauser said. "I've been to Australia and New Zealand. I mean just how many people have been touched by it."

When asked why "Yellowstone" resonated with audiences around the world, Hauser credited Sheridan's storytelling and Montana itself.

LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS

"I honestly don't know other than it's the tremendous writing and storytelling of Taylor Sheridan," Hauser said. "He created unbelievable characters and, you know, Montana is a character in its own, and I think people forget how beautiful the Old West is."

That emotional attachment to place is exactly what travel advisors are seeing translate into vacation bookings.

Duckworth said fans aren't simply looking for scenic overlooks or filming locations. They want to immerse themselves in the same lifestyle they see on screen.

"Any TV show or movie that takes place in a gorgeous setting can ignite a set-jetting trend," he explained. "Fans want to feel like they are their favorite characters by visiting the exact places they are seeing on their screens.

"The more remote or luxurious the stay, the more it truly becomes a bucket list destination," Duckworth continued. "Yes, you can do a place like Yellowstone on a budget, but you can also go ultra-lux and stay at an upscale ranch where you are wined and dined and feel like you are a member of the Dutton family."

As Sheridan shifts the franchise south, Hauser said filming in Texas brought an entirely different experience.

"God, this next iteration, I mean, it has such new challenges," he said. "Obviously, the landscape of Texas, the heat that was totally different, the new environment, the new characters that come in, the story."

Even with the new setting, Hauser said he and co-star Kelly Reilly wanted to preserve what fans love most about Rip and Beth.

"What stayed consistent is Beth and Rip," Hauser said. "Kelly and I were very cognizant of making sure that those two characters continue to be the same polarizing, strong, loyal characters that they've always been."

Duckworth believes Texas now stands to benefit from the same television-driven tourism Montana experienced during the height of "Yellowstone."

'YELLOWSTONE’ FANS ‘ABOUT TO PASS OUT’ OVER ‘DUTTON RANCH’ TRAILER AS BETH AND RIP RETURN

"'Dutton Ranch' was mainly filmed around Northern Texas," he said. "One of the popular shooting spots was Ferris, Texas, which is about 20 miles outside Dallas. Ferris is known to be growing in popularity and I have no doubt it will quickly expand with all the extra attention on the small town."

He also pointed to Saunders Ranch in Weatherford, Texas, as another destination likely to draw devoted fans.

"Another place for 'Dutton Ranch' fans is Saunders Ranch in Weatherford, Texas," Duckworth said. "This is a real-life working ranch with a history that dates all the way back to the 1800s. Saunders Ranch is the setting for the show's Edwards Ranch, also known as Rip and Beth's property."

Travelmation travel advisor Kris Porter said she's already seeing demand shift from the Rocky Mountains toward Texas as audiences look to recreate the world Sheridan built.

"Before the Yellowstone craze, I'd gotten exactly one request for a 'dude ranch' vacation," Porter told Fox News Digital. "Now, they come from the most unlikely places.

"Families who would typically pick a cruise or an all-inclusive beach resort are instead heading out West to fulfill their dreams of life on a ranch."

‘YELLOWSTONE’ STAR LUKE GRIMES TARGETED BY MONTANA LOCALS AS MOVE FROM LA SPARKS SMALL-TOWN FURY

Porter said today's travelers aren't looking for a rustic getaway. Instead, they're seeking luxury experiences that mirror the lifestyle portrayed in Sheridan's television universe.

"These clients do not want to do this on a budget," she explained. "They are seeking an elevated, bucket-list ranch experience like they are seeing on TV."

"They are willing to pay an all-inclusive price that includes Michelin-quality food, while also learning how to ride horses and herd cattle."

For many travelers, she said, the appeal is balancing rugged adventure with upscale comfort.

"At the end of the day, they want to retreat to their comfortable cabin with a nice glass of wine while staring at the stars — a pristine view that their normal, everyday life does not allow."

The shift toward Texas is already becoming noticeable.

"Over the past few years, we've seen an increase in bookings for these experiences in Wyoming and Montana, but with 'Dutton Ranch,' clients are now also moving south to Texas," Porter said.

She added that Texas offers one advantage Montana can't always promise.

"One strong appeal of Texas, besides the show, is the weather, which gives you much more opportunities year-round," Porter said. "Lavish spas and all-inclusive stays can be found in the Lone Star State too, so my clients are traveling to Texas for those higher-end trips with much warmer weather than Wyoming, especially in the spring months."

NBA tests single free throw attempt at Summer League as sport pushes for a faster game

Fri, 03 Jul 2026 12:49:00 -0400

A major experiment will be going on during this year's NBA Summer League.

The NBA announced Thursday that the "one free throw rule" will be used at the Summer League events happening this month in Salt Lake City, Northern California and Las Vegas.

The G League has used this rule since the 2019-20 season, which is designed to speed up play.

CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM

Any foul that would typically result in the awarding of one, two or three free throws will instead result in a single free-throw attempt. That attempt will be worth the same total number of points as the free throws it replaces.

The rule doesn’t apply to the entire game, though. Standard free-throw rules — two shots for a two-shot foul, etc. — will be used for the last two minutes of fourth quarters and in all of overtime.

It's unclear whether the one-free-throw rule will make it into NBA games, but similar to the minor and independent leagues and Major League Baseball, the Summer League has been a proving ground for eventual rule changes.

Among those that started at those levels and eventually got to the NBA are the coach's challenge, resetting the 24-second shot clock to 14 seconds after offensive rebounds and the one-shot award for a transition take foul — which is when a defender intentionally commits a foul to halt a transition opportunity for the opposition.

The G League also plays 10-minute quarters, something NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has openly advocated for. The league once tested 11-minute quarters in a preseason game, while exhibition games prior to the "bubble" in 2020 used 10-minute quarters.

The Summer League begins on July 9.
