Former NFL player and political novice Colin Allred, who pulled off a major upset by unseating 11-term GOP Rep. Pete Sessions in Dallas County's 32nd Congressional District on Tuesday, pointedly refused to say Wednesday night whether he'll back House Minority Leader's Nancy Pelosi bid to reclaim the speakership. Speaking exclusively to Fox News'  Dana Perino on "The Daily Briefing," Allred, 35, insisted he wants to survey the field before making any commitments. The 78-year-old Pelosi, in a letter to members and members-elect of Congress Wednesday night, formally announced her candidacy to reclaim the speakership. "I really do want to see who's running. I want to talk to them, I want to hear what their ideas are, and I want to get a few commitments as well," Allred said. "Beginning with infrastructure, I think that should be one of the first things on our docket in the House." Allred, a lawyer with a Berkeley Law School degree who

Less than 24 hours after polls closed in Tuesday’s midterm elections, when he no longer had to fear short-term political damage, President Trump formally asked for and received Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ resignation. It is abundantly clear that President Trump has had this move on the backburner for several months, and was just waiting to get past the midterms before ousting Sessions as head of the Justice Department. The president has made no secret of his anger at Sessions’ decision to recuse himself from overseeing Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and possible collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign to help Trump become president. In addition to dismissing Sessions, President Trump also swiftly removed Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein from overseeing the Russia investigation and appointed Sessions’ chief of staff, Matthew Whitaker, to serve as acting attorney general and to oversee the M

In a post-midterms one-two punch to ObamaCare, Trump administration on Wednesday finalized major rule changes aimed at rolling back the Affordable Care Act's contraceptive coverage mandate and tightening restrictions to ensure that taxpayer subsidies aren't used to fund abortions. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that the changes would allow some employers with religious or moral objections to opt out of providing no-cost birth control for female workers. Last year, the White House vowed to provide "full protection” to a wide range of companies and organizations that claim a “religious or moral objection” to providing the coverage. Under former President Barack Obama's health care law, most employers must cover birth control at no charge as a preventive service for women. Accommodating religious objections has been a sticking point with conservatives for years, and was the subject of legal challenges. The new regulations apply mainly

A man trying to vote in South Carolina was reportedly told to remove his "Trump" shirt before he could cast a ballot in the midterm election Tuesday. (Todd Price via Storyful) Vote Trump, no service? A man in South Carolina who was donning a T-shirt that showed his support of President Trump was reportedly told to remove the article of clothing if he wanted to vote in Tuesday's midterm election. The unidentified man was trying to vote at a polling location in Murrells Inlet when he was asked to remove his shirt, WPDE-TV  reported. Photos posted online don't clearly show what graphics are on the shirt. Voter Todd Price wrote on Facebook that officials "made this poor guy take off this Trump shirt to vote. I thought it was ok as long as the shirt wasn't for someone on the ballot?" According to Georgetown County's Board of Elections, "campaign materials" are not allowed within 200 feet of a polling precinct or inside of the

The directive gives regulatory weight to Boeing's safety bulletin that it sent to operators of Boeing 737 MAX 8 and MAX 9 planes based on findings from the ongoing Indonesian investigation into the Oct. 29 cra

CNN's Chief White House Correspondent Jim Acosta's press pass to access the White House was suspended "until further notice" Wednesday, hours after he engaged in a contentious back-and-forth with President Trump. "I've just been denied entrance to the WH," Acosta tweeted Wednesday night. "Secret Service just informed me I cannot enter the WH grounds for my 8pm hit." White House press secretary Sarah Sanders confirmed Acosta's tweet in a statement, claiming the suspension of his press credentials stemmed from his "placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern." She called the behavior "absolutely unacceptable."

Trick-or-treat. These states seem to prefer the treat, consuming the most calories on Halloween (iStock) A North Carolina child is facing felony charges after police say the 11-year-old allegedly put sewing needles in Halloween candy. The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office said that deputies responded to a call on Halloween that a 12-year-old child suffered minor injuries after eating a candy bar with a sewing needle in it, Fox 8 reported . The child had reportedly gone trick-or-treating in the Grace Ridge subdivision. A second candy bar with a sharp object was also found in the victim’s candy stash. Another incident was reported on Thursday – that child’s family had also been trick-or-treating in the same neighborhood, Fox 8 reported. An investigation into the attacks led authorities to an 11-year-old child who was visiting relatives in the Grace Ridge subdivision, T he Salisbury Post reported. They say the child put the needles inside the candy with the intent to cause har

Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp calls himself a "politically incorrect conservative." (AP Photo/John Amis) The office of Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp recently posted a public spreadsheet containing the home addresses and contact information of nearly 300,000 absentee voters, including disabled, elderly and active-duty military personnel. Shortly after releasing the information, he declared victory in his contentious race for governor against Democrat Stacy Abrams. The public disclosure of this private information is standard practice, according to Kemp’s office, but still raises the specter of voter intimidation just as his campaign for governor declares victory over Abrams. Currently, Republican Brad Raffensperger and Democrat John Barrow are in a tight race that's headed to a Dec. 4 runoff election, over the vacated Secretary of State position. In the weeks leading up to the midterm elections, Kemp came under fire for his controversial dual

'Taylor Swift effect' dismissed by Tennessee students Pop star Taylor Swift's last minute endorsement of Democratic Senate Candidate Phil Bredesen in Tennessee has voters wondering if it can pull him over the finish line for a victory. Students in the state don't think so. Taylor Swift isn’t slowing down her political message on Election Day. The pop singer posted several videos her Instagram Story early Tuesday, making a last-minute plea to her fans to get out and vote. “What is today? Tuesday. What was it that everyone is supposed to do today? What was it? Oh yeah, you got to go vote today,” Swift begins in the series of videos. The “Shake It Off” singer said people shouldn’t underestimate young voters. “I’m seeing a lot of underestimation of young voters and this new generation who now have the right to vote just in the last couple of years, but these are people who grew up post 9/11, they grew up with school shooting drills at their schools,” S

President Trump will watch the midterm election returns with family and friends at the White House Tuesday evening, settling into a brief role as spectator after months of campaigning for Republican congressional and gubernatorial candidates. Trump has crisscrossed the country in the weeks leading up to Election Day, hosting “Make America Great Again” rallies to campaign for Republicans in an effort to maintain the majority of the House and Senate, and pick up or hold some governor’s mansions along the way. He finished with a spree of three rallies on Monday. “After 11 rallies in 8 states and weeks of campaigning for Republican candidates, the President will spend today making phone calls, monitoring Congressional, Senate and Gubernatorial races across the country and meeting with his political team for real-time updates,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said. “Later this evening, the President and First Lady have invited family and friends to join them in the residence

The unidentified flyer caused a commotion on Flight 864 from Fort Lauderdale. (iStock) An out-of-control passenger on a Southwest Airlines flight to Newark was arrested Monday evening for displaying “erratic behavior,” the airline said. The unidentified flyer caused a commotion on Flight 864 from Fort Lauderdale — which landed an hour late, at 12:26 a.m. Tuesday. MAN REMOVED FROM FLIGHT OVER SLEEPING PILL: 'IT WAS SO HUMILIATING' It’s unclear exactly what he did, but some passengers tweeted that a man on their flight arriving in Newark tried to exit the aircraft and attacked a stewardess. “My recap home… guy tried departing the plane, guy attacks Stewardess, guy gets zip-tied, swarmed by police and arrested… OH MY PLANE WAS DELAYED,” tweeted @drychickenthigh. The man’s behavior prompted the crew to call local law enforcement, who met the plane and cuffed the unruly passenger. No one was injured, the airline said.

Florida AG candidate Sean Shaw, left, and Michigan AG candidate Dana Nessel, right, are among the Democratic candidates vying for the chance to engage in legal battle with President Trump.  (AP/Shaw campaign/Nessel campaign) Democrats don’t have to win control of either chamber of Congress to jam the Trump administration’s agenda and flood the zone with investigations. The state attorneys general races provide an opening to grow the ranks of top prosecutors already doing that. Much like GOP attorneys general buffeted the Obama administration with lawsuits challenging an array of regulations, Democratic AGs have made an industry out of taking President Trump to court. And in today's midterms, a number of candidates are campaigning to join that fight, even as these races largely fly under the radar. Take Florida. The state hosts high-profile contests for governor and Senate, but the down-ballot race for AG features Democratic nominee Sean Shaw, a state legislator. He has

Several members of the NFL Players’ Coalition -- an activist group within the league motivated by perceived racial injustice -- urged Americans to go to the polls Tuesday to vote in the midterm elections, warning: “Our lives depend on it.” Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Chris Long, Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman, New York Jets offensive tackle Kelvin Beachum and former standout running back Matt Forte all co-signed the letter, which was published Monday via the Players’ Tribune . Unlike the recent remarks made by some prominent NBA figures , the players didn’t endorse any specific candidates in their pitch, however, the group has been critical of President Trump and his administration's policies.

A Michigan newspaper scribe reportedly left a voicemail to Republican Senate hopeful John James' campaign saying that if he defeats the longtime Democratic incumbent, Sen. Debbie Stabenow, it would “suck.” "Man, if he beats her … Jesus! F---ing John James. That would suck! I don’t think it’s going to happen though,” Brenda Battel, a reporter for the Huron Daily Tribune, reportedly said in a voicemail to the James’ campaign. The reporter initially called to organize a post-election interview with the Republican, who’s waging a serious challenge to the Democrat. “I’m looking to set up an appointment with Mr. James for some time on Wednesday for a phone interview regarding the election results,” she is heard saying according to an audio posted by the campaign. After leaving her details, the reporter unsuccessfully tried to hang up the phone. She apparently believed her call was disconnected and went on to decry James’ potential victory.

Jan Brewer unexpectedly died over the weekend, the family announced on Monday. “Heartbreaking news for me,” Brewer wrote on Twitter, announcing the death of Ronald Brewer, 54. “Prayers for me and my family as we grieve are greatly appreciated.” The exact cause of the son’s death wasn’t clear. The obituary shared by Brewer noted that he died in his sleep on Saturday and emphasized his “adventurous spirit and outgoing personality’ and “beaming smile, sense of humor and giggle.” “He attended private high school in Provo, Utah and graduated valedictorian of his class,” the obituary read. “Ron loved his shoes, which would take him to his favorite activities like camping, enjoying nature, picking out flowers and experiencing hiking up the Hole in the Rock to watch the brilliant Phoenix sunsets.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. – A 10-year-old girl charged with first-degree intentional homicide in the death of a 6-month-old baby told investigators that she panicked after dropping the infant, and stomped on the child's head to stop the crying, according to a sheriff in western Wisconsin. Handcuffed and wearing a leather restraint around her waist, the girl sobbed as she appeared in Chippewa County Circuit Court on Monday. A judge set bond at $50,000. State law requires the case, at least initially, to be held in adult court, according to prosecutors. First responders were called Oct. 30 to a licensed home day care in the Town of Tilden near Chippewa Falls. The baby was found to be unresponsive and bleeding from the head, according to officials. The baby was rushed to HSHS St. Joseph's Hospital in Chippewa Falls, then airlifted to Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare hospital in St. Paul where he died Nov. 1. Chippewa County Sheriff James Kowalczyk said a doctor calle

As the media are awash in predictions and prognostications about today's elections, one question I find fascinating is this: Why haven't the Democrats run away with this thing? After all, if Donald Trump is as terrible a president as the press has been proclaiming for nearly two years, the opposition party should be riding a wave of revulsion to victory. The Dems are favored to win the 23 seats needed to win the House, and some pundits are saying they'll take considerably more, but the fact that even the minimum outcome is in doubt shows a far more competitive election than was forecast a month or two ago. So perhaps Trump, and the Republican candidates following his lead, are better at electoral politics than the wise guys thought. And you can't blame it all on "fear-mongering," even though the president has chosen to close on immigration rather than the booming economy. There is no question that these midterms are largely about Trump, and that he ha

There's nothing Brant McMullan likes more than fishing for redfish with his son on his Yellowfin boat, with his Yamaha F300 outboard motors off the coast of North Carolina. "Fishing is a way of life for us," McMullan said, joined out on the water by his son and his father. But today, he fears for fishing's future, particularly for sport-fisherman like himself. McMullan told Fox News he's concerned that over the past few decades, sport-fisherman have been getting squeezed out of the fishing industry, as a result of increasing "regulations and pressure." That's exactly why he's supporting a ballot measure in North Carolina that would enshrine the right to fish and hunt in the state constitution. What McMullan fears most, he said, is a regulatory concept called "catch shares." That's where the government divvies up catch limits for certain species of fish among commercial fishermen. McMullan explained that sport-anglers like h

President Trump shaking hands with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House in March. (AP, File) President Trump said in an interview broadcast Sunday that members of the Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen's civil war "didn't know how to use" an American-made bomb when they blew up a school bus this past August, killing dozens of children. Trump described the Aug. 9 attack, which killed at least 51 people including 40 children, as "a horror show" in an interview with "Axios on HBO." However, he pointed out that the weapon "wasn't operated by U.S. people." "We don't do that," Trump went on. "Our people are the best operators in the world ... That was basically people that didn't know how to use the weapon, which is horrible." The interview was broadcast four days after the Trump administration demanded a cease-fire and the launch of U.N.-led political talks to end the Yemen
