A leading lawmaker from the nation’s most interconnected air travel state warned that outdated technology – like "floppy disks" – and ongoing air traffic control (ATC) crises at key hubs are compounding the need to overhaul the U.S. air travel system.Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska, who also sits on the Aviation subcommittee on the Senate Commerce and Transportation Committee, spoke to Fox News Digital exclusively on Wednesday as the crisis mounted, most recently in the Philadelphia ATC sector; specifically at Newark-Liberty International Airport.The Last Frontier has the least miles of roads per capita and hundreds of communities where air travel is

President Donald Trump’s plan to host a large-scale military parade in Washington next month has ignited liberal media outlets, with many critics describing the event as "authoritarian" and unnecessary.The parade, scheduled for June, is intended to honor military veterans and active-duty service members while also marking the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army. The event will notably fall on Trump’s 79th birthday, a coincidence that has fueled skepticism among his critics.Media voices on networks like MSNBC, ABC, and CNN have responded with alarm, framing the parade as a symbol of authoritarian leadership rather than patriotic celebration."We don’t need a military

Forty-two years ago, Ronald Reagan stood in a ballroom in Orlando, Florida, calling for countries to unite against an evil empire and encouraging them to "not remove themselves from the struggle between right and wrong and good and evil."Much has changed in four decades - yet the threat to freedom-loving countries has only grown. We still exist in a world of good versus evil - freedom-loving countries like ours that support democracy, human rights, and economic freedom against countries like Russia, Communist China, North Korea, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, and others who control and abuse the will and God-given rights of their

Extensive damage left Selmer, Tennessee stuck in time at the exact moment a strong EF-3 tornado ripped through the town over a month ago. The tornado's 160 mile per hour winds were strong enough to shred well-built homes and businesses on April 3. The McNairy County Emergency Management Agency reported that 332 buildings were damaged by the tornado. Among them, 108 were completely destroyed. The Jesus Cares Thrift Store was a total loss, according to the owner. The roof and back wall of the store collapsed.

A second expert on smartphone forensics testified Wednesday in the Karen Read trial that Jennifer McCabe's Google search about hypothermia happened after John O'Keefe's remains were found, not before, as the defense has argued.Jessica Hyde testified that she could say with scientific certainty that McCabe used her iPhone to search the phrase "hos (sic) long to die in cold" at 6:24 a.m.The defense claim that the search happened at 2:27 a.m. – hours before investigators say Read, McCabe and Kerry Roberts found O'Keefe dead in the snow at 34 Fairview Road – is incorrect, she testified. The earlier timestamp has

A bill aimed at cracking down on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its practice of forced organ harvesting passed with overwhelming support on Wednesday – though one House lawmaker voted against it.Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., was the lone Republican to oppose the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act, which passed 406-1."It's just another example of us trying to stick our nose in another country's business and write their laws," Massie told Fox News Digital after the vote. "And at the end of the day, they're gonna do what they're gonna do, and it's just sort of a virtue signal over

Once a new pope is voted in, the name he chooses could signal the direction the Catholic Church moves in the coming years.The announcement "Habemus Papa," or, "We have a pope," will be made from the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica. It will then be followed by the pontiff’s baptismal name in Latin, along with his chosen papal name and meaning.Should the pope choose to go with Pope Francis II, it could signify continuity with the late pontiff’s pastoral legacy, though Francis himself quipped that whoever succeeds him would be John XXIV, named after the Vatican II-era pope.In the 20th
