When our communities are ravaged by fire, storm, or natural disaster, we pull together and come back stronger. » »And when a shooter attacked our democracy and tried to end this movement, President Trump will return to the site, joined by tens of thousands of proud citizens, and together, they will celebrate a unifying vision for America’s future in an event like the world has never seen before, » it continued.Trump’s campaign said that he is « more determined than ever » following the two assassination attempts in the past nine weeks, one in Butler and the other at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida. »In that Butler field on July 13th, he took a bullet for democracy — and on Nov. 5, he is going to save our democracy, » they said. « With the help of the amazing people of Pennsylvania and citizens all across our land, we will make America safer, stronger, freer and greater than ever before. »

The family of the late rapper Tupac Shakur has hired a prominent New York lawyer to investigate alleged links between his death and Sean « Diddy » Combs, Fox News Digital has confirmed. Alex Spiro, a 41-year-old, Harvard-trained attorney, helped « Rust » actor Alec Baldwin secure a legal victory in his involuntary manslaughter case. Baldwin was charged with manslaughter in 2021, after his on-set shooting led to the tragic death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Shakur’s family has hired Spiro, who has a roster of Hollywood clients, to investigate whether Combs had any involvement with the late rapper’s death nearly 30 years ago.DIDDY FACES NEW SEXUAL ABUSE ALLEGATIONS FROM 120 ACCUSERS, WITH CLAIMS INVOLVING 9-YEAR-OLDShakur was fatally shot in a drive-by shooting on Sept. 7, 1996. The rapper was riding shotgun in Death Row Records co-founder Marion « Suge » Knight’s black BMW when a white Cadillac pulled up alongside them while they were stopped at a traffic light. Knight was in the car with Shakur when they were attacked in Las Vegas. WATCH ON FOX NATION: WHAT DIDDY DO?Industry legends Shakur and Notorious B.I.G., a Bad Boy artist, both died in drive-by shootings.

I am shocked that the Los Angeles Times would be so irresponsible as to publish such a baseless and completely untrue story. »The 1994 shooting triggered the celebrated feud between East and West Coast rappers that led to the killings of Shakur and B.I.G.The news of Shakur’s family hiring New York attorney Spiro comes as Combs is faced with a slew of charges and is currently in jail.

Vice President Kamala Harris recently recorded an interview with the raunchy and often-sexually explicit « Call Her Daddy » podcast, though she continues to play coy with traditional media outlets.The Harris campaign confirmed that Harris sat down for the interview this past Tuesday where she focused on talking to audiences about abortion and reproductive rights issues. The interview is set to air sometime next week.Harris’ « Call Her Daddy » interview comes as she has been criticized for not doing enough traditional news interviews since the start of her presidential campaign in late July.HARRIS CAMPAIGN IS IN ‘DANGER ZONE’ AS AMERICANS WORRY ABOUT COUNTRY’S DIRECTION, SAYS CNN DATA GURUSo far, Harris and her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., have done a combined 24 interviews, a number which pales in comparison to the Trump-Vance ticket’s combined 63 interviews in that same time frame.Harris still has not held a formal press conference since replacing President Biden as the Democratic nominee, while Trump has held five since the beginning of September.The « Call Her Daddy » podcast, put on by SiriusXM, is hosted by Alex Cooper and reaches a massive, predominantly female audience. According to Spotify, it is « the most-listened to podcast by women. » The podcast is well-known for hosting explicit discussions about sex and women’s health advice. Axios reported that the vice president’s appearance on the podcast « highlights her campaign’s emphasis on appealing to women voters and younger audiences. » According to CNN, the podcast generally has « a reputation for raunchy sex and relationship conversations. » Former President Trump and his running mate JD Vance have done multiple interviews on major podcasts shows in recent months, trying to bring their messaging to younger audiences. Trump recently sat down with podcaster and influencer Theo Von on his podcast and did a livestream with popular influencer Adin Ross that was conducted at the former president’s Mar-a-Lago residence. Vance did an interview on the Full Send Podcast in August. That Harris would opt for a sit-down with the sex-positive show generated some chatter on social media. BILL MAHER CONDEMNS TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, CALLS FORMER PRESIDENT ‘LUCKIEST MOTHERF—ER’ EVERPro-Trump influencer Collin Rugg shared a clip from the show in which Cooper interviewed a porn star. He commented, « The episode was filmed on Tuesday, in the middle of Hurricane Helene recovery efforts. The conversation reportedly focuses on reproductive rights, abortion & other women issues. Here is a previous in depth conversation Cooper had with a p*rn star. »Fox News Digital’s Kristine Parks contributed to this report.

Before October 7, the communities of the mostly agricultural cooperative settlements, commonly known as kibbutzim, near the Gaza Strip, were considered some of the most picturesque places in Israel, characterized by green fields and carpets of vibrant red anemones. Yet, they were also among the most bombarded areas in the country. « Ninety-nine percent of the time, it’s paradise; one percent of the time, it’s hell, » was a common saying among residents. »It’s fair to say this year, we live in that one percent » Ofer Liberman admits, reflecting on the harsh reality faced by his community. For 22 years, he has served as the spokesperson for Kibbutz Nir Am, nestled in the Gaza envelope.On October 7, it was Liberman’s daughter, Inbal, the community’s security coordinator, who displayed remarkable courage. She opened the weapons storage lockers and distributed arms to the community’s rapid response team, sending them to various locations along the kibbutz fence. She and the team engaged in face-to-face battles with Hamas terrorists. Her quick actions prevented them from entering the kibbutz and prevented a massacre similar to what occurred in neighboring communities.ISRAEL’S MILITARY SAYS FORCE IS ‘AT WAR’ WITH HAMAS AS IDF HITS BACK AT TERROR TARGETSOn Wednesday, during Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, Liberman celebrated with his family back in Kibbutz Nir Am. « My wife and I were the only ones to come back in mid-November, while the kibbutz was under full military control. I manage the agriculture in Nir Am, and I had to be here. By the end of March, a small number of families returned, and on August 15, when government funding ended, everyone returned except for 12 families, » he recounted. »This was a sad holiday; some of our friends still have family members and friends held in Gaza. In the morning, we were informed by the IDF there would be loud noises coming from their fighting in Gaza, » Liberman described the ongoing tension in the region. « People got anxious because it reminded them of October 7 — the booming and gunfire. But we’re managing a routine. People go to work, and children go to school, living my life completely, with sounds of war. »After October 7, 15,000 people were evacuated from the 21 kibbutzim in southern Israel, first to hotels and then into temporary housing across the country. Remarkably, about 70% have returned home, a significant achievement considering the ongoing war in Gaza and the devastating impact of the attack, which claimed the lives of some 1,200 people, 319 of whom were kibbutz members, and destroyed hundreds of homes.FEDERAL AUTHORITIES ISSUE WARNING AHEAD OF OCT. 7 ATTACKS ANNIVERSARYHowever, six of the communities where the impact was most severe have yet to return. In Kibbutz Be’eri, 98 men, women, and children were murdered, and 30 were kidnapped. In Kfar Aza, home to 700, 64 people, including women and children, were massacred, and 19 were taken hostage. In Nahal Oz, a small community of 450, 15 were killed and 8 were kidnapped. »Only twenty members of Kibbutz Nahal Oz have returned to the kibbutz, while 330 residents — eighty percent of our community — are in Mishmar Ha’emek, a kibbutz in north-central Israel. They’ve been hosting us since October 8, » Amir Tibon, a resident of Nahal Oz, told Fox News Digital. « Being together as one community in this temporary housing has been significant, as we are surrounded by the people we love. Our children still go to school and kindergarten together, which makes a big difference. »On October 7, Tibon and his wife Miri were rescued along with their two younger daughters, thanks to his mother Gali, and father, retired IDF Major General Noam Tibon, who drove from Tel Aviv to the kibbutz to rescue them. On their way, they rescued survivors of the music festival massacre and helped wounded Israeli soldiers. Hours after leaving his home in Tel Aviv, Amir’s father battled a Hamas terrorist in Nahal Oz and saved his family. Tibon later chronicled his experiences in his new book, « The Gates of Gaza: A Story of Betrayal, Survival, and Hope in Israel’s Borderline, » where he intertwines his personal story with the history of the kibbutz.FOREIGN SURVIVORS OF BRUTAL HAMAS ATTACK ON ISRAEL RECALL TERROR MASSACRE: ‘EVERYTHING WAS BURNING' »The kibbutzim’s key role in the history of Israel, in creating and protecting the borders of Israel, remains crucial. This way of life, with a strong emphasis on community and togetherness, is more important now than ever, » Tibon believes. »A kibbutz can be understood as a microcosm of collective living, where community, equality and shared labor play vital roles in the daily lives of its members, » Ayelet Harris, head of the community division in the Kibbutz Movement, said of the leadership dynamics in these communities. »The Kibbutzim institutional structure has been crucial in the process of recovery. I saw women and men leading their kibbutzim and prioritizing the mission of returning, even in uncertain times. They decided to focus on the mission of going, working through their emotional states while being part of the teams planning the return. This sense of ownership fosters a deeper sense of belonging than in other places where people feel less influence over future plans. »Tibon reflected on the complexities surrounding the decision to return home. « This is a conversation we have every day. The issue is about the sense of security that the government and IDF must provide, and overcoming the psychological barriers of returning to a place where such horrors occurred. »The ongoing trauma is compounded by the uncertainty of their friends and family who remain in Hamas captivity. « We received five of our hostages back alive in November, thanks to a deal orchestrated by President Biden. But we still have two friends, Omri and Zachi, in the hands of the enemy, » Tibon explained. « For me, going back to the kibbutz means living in a house where a neighbor was killed in the house in front of me, and another neighbor was murdered in the house behind. This is where I will raise my daughters. I believe I can do that, but I don’t know if I can pass by the homes of these two friends and know they were left to die in the tunnels of Gaza. »VIDEOS OF HAMAS BRUTALITY TOWARD ISRAELIS EERILY REMINISCENT OF ISIS TACTICSLast week, while walking around Kibbutz Gvulot, the contrast between the children’s laughter and the reality of their lives was striking. Children played soccer on the grass, joyfully unaware of the shadows cast by the shelters positioned every few meters, decorated with pictures of beloved cartoon characters. The regional school at the center of the kibbutz has been improvised from structures that existed prior to October 7. »After the attack, we found ourselves in a hotel in Eilat with a large part of the traumatized community of the south, » Lior Dafner, the chairman of Kibbutz Gvulot, recalls. « Every day we received news about more people we knew being kidnapped or murdered- a truly incomprehensible situation. » Kibbutz Gvulot was one of the very few places that were not raided during the October 7 massacre. »You see a slow deterioration of people into helplessness; there are no frameworks for children. We realized we needed to establish ourselves and figure out where to go next. We wanted to ensure that the children and staff started the year on September 1, like all children in the country, and finish on June 30, in the same classroom with the same teacher and group of kids—all in a safe and stable environment. After everything they’ve been through, losing friends and teachers, seeing them now in school gives us hope. This is the future. It gives us hope for what lies ahead, » Dafner said.Throughout the communities that are back in their homes, there is a call for resilience despite the challenges. Liberman said, « I think we had to return here and hold this place. We need to preserve our country. I was just in New York, sitting with Jews who lamented that they are not in Israel. You see the synagogue surrounded by police protecting them because they are afraid. We, the Jewish people, are unwelcome anywhere in the world. So, we have no choice but to remain in our state. I hope that after the fighting in the south and north ends, and once we bring our hostages home, we can return to living that ninety-nine percent of paradise. »

The 19-year-old U.S. Air Force Academy cadet who was found unresponsive in her dorm room in early September died from a rare bacterial infection « associated with a toxic shock-like syndrome, » a coroner has announced. Avery Koonce had been fighting a cough before dying on Sept. 4 in Colorado from « Paeniclostridium sordellii sepsis complicating parainfluenza laryngotracheobronchitis, » according to an El Paso County Coroner’s Office report obtained by Fox21 News. Coroner Leon Kelly wrote in the report that Koonce had an abnormal fluid build-up in her left lung along with the bacterium Paeniclostridium sordellii, which can cause « serious disease or death in various clinical settings including airway infection and sepsis, » according to the Colorado Springs Independent. The bacteria « has been associated with a toxic shock-like syndrome that can rapidly progress to death, » and « It’s likely that the bacterial infection was secondary to the parainfluenza infection… that resulted in… symptoms of severe cough and upper airway inflammation and edema, » the newspaper cited the report as saying. US AIR FORCE ACADEMY CADET, 19, IS FOUND DEAD IN HER DORM ROOM The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention describes sepsis as « the body’s extreme response to an infection » that happens « when an infection you already have triggers a chain reaction throughout your body. » The U.S. Air Force Academy said Koonce, a 19-year-old from Taylor, Texas, was set to graduate in 2028 and was a member of the women’s track and field team. MORE THAN $365K RAISED FOR DISABLED AIR FORCE VETERAN, 90, SEEN PAWNING JEWELRY TO SUPPORT WIFE WITH DEMENTIA « We lost an incredible teammate… While only with us for a short time, Avery positively impacted her unit, her intercollegiate team, and her class – her loss will be felt across USAFA, » Academy Superintendent Lt Gen Tony Bauernfeind said at the time of Koonce’s death. « Our team is focused on providing support to Avery’s family, Cadet Squadron 38, the Track and Field team, and the entire Academy family. »Koonce attended Thrall High School, according to the Austin American-Statesman, which quoted the district’s superintendent as saying that she was the president of the student council and leader of the National Honor Society.  U.S. Rep.

For five days, the U.S. Army’s helicopters stayed on the ground. The Biden-Harris administration’s response to Hurricane Helene has been slow, weak, and deadly—but, except for Fox News, you wouldn’t know it from the major media.Hurricane Helene made landfall on Thursday, Sept. 26, at 11:10 p.m. The following Thursday, a reporter asked President Joe Biden about the storm zone. Biden responded, « Oh, storm zone? I don’t know which storm you’re talking about… » Biden then recovered and claimed, « They are getting what they need, and they are very happy across the board. »WHITE HOUSE REPORTERS ASK ZERO QUESTIONS ABOUT HURRICANE HELENE IN SURPRISE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESS BIDENThe day before, five full days after the storm dumped up to 30 inches of rain in some mountain locations, Biden ordered 1,000 active-duty troops to provide assistance with 22 helicopters as well as tactical vehicles from Fort Liberty (formerly Fort Bragg), some 250 miles east of hard-hit Asheville, N.C.There are about 50 utility helicopters in the 82d Airborne Division’s Combat Aviation Brigade at Fort Liberty. The military installation in Fayetteville, the U.S. Army’s largest, has almost 100,000 active-duty and reserve soldiers available for presidential call-up—so, Biden sent 1% of Fort Liberty’s personnel and less than half of the base’s much-needed helicopter inventory. Meanwhile, the federal government’s emergency management arm, FEMA, warned it’s out of money because it has spent $1.4 billion on aid to « sanctuary cities » swamped with illegal aliens and mostly fake asylum seekers. FEMA said it sent 150 generators to the stricken region. But there are at least double that number of generators available for purchase within an hour’s drive of any typical city. Displaced citizens in the Appalachian region hit by Helene are at risk of illness due to contaminated water—and in danger from human traffickers who prey upon the confused, weak, and vulnerable. The hundreds of military police from Fort Liberty’s 503rd Military Police Battalion and the 82nd MP Company could prove a powerful deterrent in shelters—if they were activated.So, how does the Biden-Harris disaster response compare to other recent events? The media and Democrats heaped scorn on President George H.W. Bush’s federal response to the L.A. Riots in 1992 and then again on President George W. Bush’s Hurricane Katrina actions in 2005. I was a California Army National Guard captain during the 1992 L.A. Riots. Within three days, we had 10,000 Guard soldiers on the ground, quelling looting and arson. Rioting started the evening of April 29. The following evening, a National Guard MP company was on the scene. The next day, 4,000 Guard soldiers were in the city and President Bush ordered active-duty Army and Marine forces into action as well as 1,000 federal law enforcement officers. By May 2, there were 10,000 Guard members and 3,500 active-duty soldiers and Marines keeping order in L.A.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONSo, the elder Bush ordered 3,500 active-duty personnel into L.A. three days into the emergency while Biden took five days to decide to send 1,000 soldiers to help. Hurricane Katrina made landfall on Monday, Aug. 29, 2005, around 4:30 a.m. At Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco’s request, President George W. Bush had issued an emergency declaration on Saturday, Aug. 27, two days before landfall. Within a day of impact, U.S. Coast Guard helicopters were already working, rescuing some 350 people from rooftops. Bush viewed the devastation from the air on Aug. 31 and was roundly criticized for flying over, rather than seeing things on the ground. On Sept. 1, Bush asked Gov. Blanco to allow a federal takeover of the relief efforts, which by then included 15,256 Guard members expected to grow to more than 40,000 personnel from neighboring states. Bush visited the scene of the disaster only two days after landfall. Two days after Helene, Biden was on the beach in Delaware, « commanding, » as he claimed, with two hours of phone calls. Vice President Kamala Harris was fundraising on the West Coast.The U.S. military’s chain of command for this disaster runs from Biden to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin to the commander of the U.S. Northern Command. Biden’s slow and confused response to Hurricane Helene—taking two more days to come to grips with the crisis than did his two recent predecessors—speaks of a president who is out of touch and not up to the job. The Biden-Harris administration’s sluggish and half-hearted disaster response has put hundreds of thousands of Americans at risk in Helene’s swath of destruction. Biden’s lackluster engagement in the most powerful office on the planet puts the entire nation in peril as the world spirals into chaos while Harris focuses her time and energy on running to replace Biden while hiding from the media.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM CHUCK DEVORE

A Virginia couple had a close call with Hurricane Helene’s fury while traveling home through the North Carolina mountains. Alan and Kelly Keffer described barely escaping a mudslide along the interstate in Black Mountain, N.C. on « The Faulkner Focus » Thursday. »When I looked out the window, the mountain was coming down with the trees and rocks, » Alan told host Harris Faulkner.HURRICANE HELENE: NORTH CAROLINA RESIDENTS FIGHT FOR THEIR SURVIVAL AS BASIC GOODS BECOME SCARCEAs the wall of earth bulldozed down onto the highway, Kelly said, « I looked back in the car and just saw the mud on the door and kept looking back and saw that the glass was shattered. »Hurricane Helene made landfall last Thursday as a Category 4 storm, but quickly barreled its way towards the Carolinas. The storm brought unprecedented flooding and landslides to the western North Carolina region over the weekend.The Keffers were driving home from vacation when they got caught in Helene’s wrath. « We just figured it would be a little bit of rain, maybe some wind, but it would be fine. And it wasn’t until we got on I-40 that we saw that, whoa, trees are blowing down. The highways that are getting closed, » Alan shared. He added the pair were only driving around 35 miles per hour due to heavy rainfall. « As soon as I saw it, I just stepped on the gas and my first thought was, I wonder if this is going to hurt. And three seconds later, it was over, » Alan said.NORTH CAROLINA COMMUNITY ‘HUNTING’ FOR MISSING TEACHERS IN ‘DEVASTATING’ AFTERMATH OF HURRICANE HELENE »It was pretty scary because I didn’t see what was happening. I just heard everything hitting the car, and I thought they were big rocks because that’s what it sounded like. And I was expecting the roof to cave in. So we’re very blessed to have gotten through it and everybody else that survived. We’re very thankful for that, » Kelly said. Kelly added there were no major injuries caused by the specific mudslide. The death toll from the hurricane climbed to at least 200, and that number is expected to rise in the coming weeks as officials continue their rescue and recovery efforts. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) arrived in Western North Carolina Monday after Gov. Roy Cooper announced President Biden had approved federal resources.Since the worst of the storm on Friday morning, local and state officials, as well as local and out-of-state volunteer rescue organizations — such as Samaritan’s Purse headquartered in Boone and Cajun Navy 2016 located in Louisiana — had been working to send personnel and supplies up the steep mountain roads severely damaged by Helene in western North Carolina.Rescue teams have also been deployed to parts of eastern Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia, Virginia and Florida — areas that were also devastated by the storm.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP »We just can’t imagine what they’re going through. We came out of it safely, but many people did not. And we’re just continuing to lift that area, all the rescue teams that are coming in, all the supplies that are being delivered to those areas, we’re just lifting them in prayer for their safety, » Kelly said.Helene’s death toll for North Carolina and Tennessee is unknown as authorities continue to respond and get in touch with families before publicizing official numbers, but the lack of data roaming and cellphone service is making that difficult. Fox News’ Stephen Sorace and Audrey Conklin contributed to this report.
