Markwayne Mullin decries CA governor front-runner Tom Steyer, claims he ‘doesn’t understand’ ICE

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin accused California gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer of failing to understand Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as the new Democratic front-runner pledges to abolish the agency if elected.

During an appearance on "The Ingraham Angle" Wednesday, Mullin pushed back on Steyer’s comments that ICE has "criminal" tendencies.

"I’m very straightforward about this; ICE should be abolished," Steyer said at a February debate. "You really can’t reform an organization which is absolutely wrong and criminal from top to bottom."

Mullin, who took the reins of the Department of Homeland Security roughly three weeks ago, said the Democratic gubernatorial hopeful does not have the power to abolish the federal immigration agency.

"He doesn't have the authority to do it, and he's talking on the left side of his mouth," he told Fox News host Laura Ingraham. "He doesn't understand ICE's role."

Recent polling places Steyer as the front-runner in the race to replace California Gov. Gavin Newsom. He leads with 21% of likely voters, while Republican candidate Steve Hilton trails at 18%.

Steyer has emerged as a sudden Democratic front-runner after various sexual misconduct allegations forced Eric Swalwell to drop his gubernatorial campaign and resign from Congress.

Mullin criticized Steyer’s stance on immigration enforcement, arguing that ICE is required to abide by federal law.

"ICE simply enforces the nation's immigration policies and deports individuals and goes after the criminals that should never be in this country to begin with," the DHS chief told Fox News.

"We're not doing anything outside the law, we're working well within the law, and they're doing a job every single day protecting, even people like himself, that want to decriminalize criminals. It doesn't make any sense to me."

Mullin also said Steyer’s fellow California Democrats, who largely hold anti-ICE stances, have the power to reform ICE through congressional legislation.

"[Steyer] says they're criminal from top to bottom? ICE is enforcing the laws that Congress passed. That means that the Democrats that represent California in the federal government, if they wanted to change ICE's authority, they could do it," he added.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Steyer said President Donald Trump is responsible for turning ICE "criminal."

"I understand perfectly well the role ICE has played under this president," Steyer wrote in the statement. "Donald Trump has turned ICE into a criminal enterprise, so we will treat them like one. If they break the law in California, they will be prosecuted — just like anyone else."

In addition to defending ICE, the new DHS secretary pledged to maintain the Trump administration’s aggressive deportation campaign and communicated a willingness to accept the "right" kind of immigrants.

"We're not slowing down," Mullin said. "We're going after the illegals, and we would love for them to leave on their own, and we'll assist them. We have programs to help assist you to go back to your country, because if we have to go through the prosecution process, you'll never come back in this country legally ever."

"We want legal immigration, people that want to make the country stronger. We're a nation of immigrants. We understand that. But the right kinds of immigrants."

Iran to execute first female protester tied to anti-regime unrest

Iran is set to execute its first female protester tied to the January 2026 uprising in Tehran, according to multiple human rights organizations. 

Bita Hemmati was named in a collective death sentencing alongside three other defendants, including her husband, Mohammadreza Majid-Asl, 34, according to the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) and the Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA).

The couple’s reported neighbors, Behrouz Zamaninejad and Kourosh Zamaninejad, were also sentenced to death, while a relative, Amir Hemmati, received five years in prison.

The verdicts mark some of the most recent capital punishment decisions amid the government’s broader crackdown on suppressing unrest. Possibly thousands of protesters have reportedly been killed since demonstrations erupted this year.

TRUMP DETAILS SWEEPING 'ALL OR NOTHING' BLOCKADE OF STRAIT OF HORMUZ AFTER FAILED IRAN TALKS

"Mohammadreza Majidi-Asl and Bita Hemmati are a couple living in Tehran, and Amir Hemmati is a relative of the two," a source told HRANA. "Kourosh Zamaninejad and Behrouz Zamaninejad were living in the same residential building, and their arrests took place simultaneously."

No execution date has yet been given.

The Tehran Revolutionary Court reportedly accused the defendants of multiple offenses, including national security disruption in connection with the "hostile government of the United States," according to HRANA.

On Jan. 8 and 9, the defendants allegedly used explosives and weapons, threw objects such as concrete blocks and incendiary materials from rooftops, injured security forces, and engaged in "propaganda against the regime" in an effort to undermine security, according to federal authorities.

Alongside the capital punishment verdicts, the court also issued five years of discretionary imprisonment and ordered the seizure of their personal assets. 

Officials added that the fifth associate, Amir Hemmati, was specifically convicted of "assembly and collusion against national security" and "propaganda against the regime," the groups said.

Human rights activists further raised concerns that the defendants’ confessions may have been coerced, citing allegations of torture and interrogation.

The organizations, which are urging a halt to the executions, also claimed a lack of specific evidence linking the accused to the alleged crimes, and argued that Tehran is seeking to intimidate the public in order to prevent future civilian unrest. 

Widespread protests first erupted in late December 2025 in Tehran amid an economic crisis marked by a collapsing currency and soaring inflation. Tensions then quickly escalated into broader anti-government unrest that spread across multiple cities.

Washington officially joined the conflict with the launch of Operation Epic Fury on Feb. 28, 2026, when it conducted massive joint airstrikes with Israel that killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. 

Guards at 'Alligator Alcatraz' beat, pepper-sprayed detainees, lawyer says

Guards severely beat and pepper-sprayed migrant detainees at "Alligator Alcatraz," an immigration detention center in the Florida Everglades, causing injuries to their heads, shoulders and wrists, according to a lawyer for two detainees.

The guards targeted several detainees at the state-run facility after they complained about a lack of phone access one day earlier this month, lawyer Katherine Blankenship said in a court declaration.

The phones are the primary method for detainees to communicate with family and their legal representation while held at the detention center, but the phones were not functioning.

The guards first started to taunt the detainees as they were in a cell. Blankenship said the guards then became "more aggressive and were yelling and threatening to enter the cage."

DOJ SUES CONNECTICUT, NEW HAVEN OVER SANCTUARY POLICIES: 'OPEN DEFIANCE'

One detainee was punched in the face after walking up to a guard. The guards then began beating other detainees in the cell.

Blankenship said one of her clients was punched in the right eye, thrown to the floor and beaten by several guards. She said guards kicked him in the head and injured his shoulder and arm. A guard also put his knee on the detainee's neck while restraining him, according to the attorney.

Included in the declaration is a photo taken during a video call nearly a week after the beating showing the detainee with a bruised eye.

"The officers beat several people during this incident and broke another detained individual’s wrist," Blankenship wrote, noting that the detainee whose wrist was broken is not among her clients.

Phone service was restored the following day, although officials failed to provide any explanation as to why it was cut off.

HOCHUL ENDORSES LEGISLATION TO ALLOW NEW YORKERS TO SUE ICE AGENTS: 'POWER DOES NOT JUSTIFY ABUSE'

Blankenship's declaration was part of a court filing alleging that state and federal officials have not complied with a federal judge's preliminary injunction last month ordering the detention center to offer detainees access to timely, free, confidential, unmonitored and unrecorded calls with their attorneys.

U.S. District Judge Sheri Polster Chappell directed officials to provide at least one operable telephone for every 25 people held in the facility.

The judge's order came after a lawsuit that argued that officials at the facility were violating detainees' First Amendment rights.

State officials have denied claims of restricting detainees' access to their attorneys, pointing to security and staffing issues for any cutoffs. Federal officials, who are also defendants in the case, denied that detainees’ First Amendment rights were violated.

Last week, state officials filed a notice saying they intend to appeal the judge's ruling.

The facility has been slapped with several lawsuits since it was built over the summer.

The detention facility was constructed last year by Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration to support President Donald Trump’s plan to mass detain and deport migrants. Officials in the Sunshine State also built a second immigration detention center in northern Florida.

During a visit last week to the detention center, U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., said she was not given the opportunity to speak with detainees. 

The lawmaker also described conditions at the detention center as "inhumane" and "cruel."

"The way the detainees are housed is cruel and unnecessary," she said.

LIV Golf CEO sends rallying memo to staff after reports Saudi funding could end after this season

LIV Golf CEO Scott O'Neil sent a memo to his staff Wednesday in response to reports the Public Investment Fund will no longer use its resources for the league.

Sources told Fox News Digital the Saudis will stop funding LIV after the 2026 season.

"Team, (f)ollowing up on my previous message, which I realize may have led to some confusion on where we stand as a business," O'Neil wrote in a memo obtained by Fox News Digital. 

"I want to be crystal clear: Our season continues exactly as planned, uninterrupted and at full throttle.

"While the media landscape is often filled with speculation, our reality is defined by the work we do on the grass. We are heading into the heart of our 2026 schedule with the full energy of an organization that is bigger, louder, and more influential than ever before.

"The life of a startup movement is often defined by these moments of pressure. We signed up for this because we believe in disrupting the status quo. We have faced headwinds since the jump, and we’ve answered every time with resilience and grace. Now, we answer by doing what we do best: putting on the most compelling show in sports."

GOLF ANALYST BRANDEL CHAMBLEE RIPS LIV GOLF AS REPORTS FUEL SPECULATION ABOUT ITS FUTURE: 'LAME-BRAINED TOUR'

O'Neil then praised LIV golfers for contending at the Masters, noting Tyrell Hatton finished tied for third, and hyping up Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm as the faces of the league.

"To the teams in New York, London, and those on the ground here with me in Mexico: lean into this moment," O'Neil continued. 

"The noise you hear is simply the sound of a movement that is working. Embrace it. We are pioneers, and while the road isn’t always smooth, the destination is worth every mile. Let’s go out and show the world why LIV Golf is the future of the game. It matters. You mattered. Now, let’s go win.

"Long LIV Golf."

LIV began in 2022 and has produced two major winners in Brooks Koepka, who has since rejoined the PGA Tour, at the 2023 PGA Championship, and DeChambeau at the 2024 U.S. Open. They are currently playing in Mexico City.

LIV Golf shifted from its 54-hole format, a draw for golfers defecting from the PGA Tour, to 72 beginning this season. Patrick Reed is also set to rejoin the tour.

NYC Mayor Mamdani calls threat of rich people leaving NYC over taxes 'imagined'

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani claimed on Wednesday that threats of the city's wealthiest residents leaving the city over high taxes were "imagined." 

Mamdani held a Tax Day public forum with economists Gabriel Zucman and Joseph Stiglitz to discuss his plans to further tax the rich, starting with a new tax on luxury properties valued at $5 million or more.

"For all of the discussion of the imagined exodus that would take place were we to tax the wealthiest New Yorkers by the appropriate amount—I say imagined because before I was a mayor I was a state legislator and I was part of an effort to increase taxes on millionaires at that time—we were told the same thing then—and what we find now is that we have more millionaires today than we did at that time even after having passed that tax," Mamdani said.

MAMDANI'S 'PAINFUL' TAX HIKE THREAT MOCKED BY WASHINGTON POST FOR PROVING 'SOCIALIST UTOPIA IS EXPENSIVE'

Mamdani acknowledged New York City losing many of its residents in recent years, pointing out that the city lost 200,000 Black residents between 2000 and 2020. However, he claimed that this was an "exodus" of working-class people who can no longer afford to live there.

"And so for all of that conversation about this imagined exodus, we have to reckon with the very real exodus that we are seeing in the city, an exodus of working-class people, an exodus of those who cannot afford to live here and for many who work here who now find their residence in Jersey City or in Connecticut or in Pennsylvania, anywhere else where their dollar can go a little bit further," Mamdani said.

SOCIALIST NYC MAYOR MAMDANI CLASHES WITH HOCHUL OVER TAX HIKES AS SOME CRITICS WARN OF CATASTROPHE

During the forum, Mamdani also highlighted his past campaign goals for free busing, universal childcare and five city-run grocery stores.

Though Mamdani was able to launch a universal childcare program within his first 100 days in office, he has yet to deliver on his plans for free busing or a city-run grocery store. The first of the proposed grocery stores is currently slated to open in late 2027.

Fox News Digital reached out to the mayor's office for comment.

Mamdani's comments came in stark contrast to previous ones made by New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, who encouraged wealthy former state residents to move back and support social programs.

"There are some patriotic millionaires who stepped up. OK, cut me the checks. If you want to be supportive — but maybe the first step should be [to] go down to Palm Beach and see who you can bring back home, because our tax has been eroded," Hochul said last month.

Starbucks uses ChatGPT to suggest drinks based on mood as expert warns of hidden downsides

Not sure what to order at Starbucks? The company is now using ChatGPT to help customers decide.

The Seattle-headquartered coffee giant announced Tuesday that it's begun testing a beta app within ChatGPT to help with beverage customization.

The recommendations can be "tailored to your taste, mood and goals," according to the Starbucks app.

The tool can even take into account what the weather is and what drink might pair best with a user's outfit.

It also allows customers to select a nearby store and begin an order, which can be completed through the Starbucks app or website.

To access the app, customers can open ChatGPT, access the app directory and search for "Starbucks."

Then, ChatGPT users can send a prompt along the lines of, "@starbucks, I'd like a good coffee to start my day."

Paul Riedel, senior vice president of digital and loyalty at Starbucks, told Fox News Digital the move reflects shifting consumer behavior over the past year.

STARBUCKS TO PROMPT MORE TIPPING ON CARD PAYMENTS, FUELING 'TIP CREEP' BACKLASH

"Over the past year, one thing has become clear: Customers aren't always starting with a menu," he said. "They're starting with a feeling.

"We wanted to meet customers right at that moment of inspiration and make it easier than ever [for them] to find a drink that fits."

The rollout highlights how companies are using AI to personalize experiences, said Marva Bailer, a Georgia-based strategic advisor and board member specializing in AI and emerging technologies.

"Starbucks has the opportunity to leverage visuals and descriptions of products reflecting travel, discovery and creativity as an extension of their brand," she said.

"We have experienced ChatGPT planning dinner parties, leaving out no detail. Think the same for this daily interaction."

The effort shows that Starbucks is "meeting people where they likely already are mentally," said Jonathan Alpert, a psychotherapist based in New York City and the author of the upcoming book "Therapy Nation."

"Most customers aren't walking in thinking, 'I want a triple espresso with oat milk.' They're thinking, 'I'm exhausted. I need a pick-me-up,' or 'It's cold out, and I want something comforting,'" Alpert said.

The result is an ordering process that feels "easier and more personal," he said.

"I think most consumers will be comfortable with AI influencing low-stakes decisions like coffee because it feels fun and low risk," he said.

"But the bigger shift is behavioral: People are getting more used to outsourcing tiny daily decisions to machines."

Alpert said the approach could pose a risk, warning the AI may "naturally lean into emotional gratification" and push users toward more caloric drinks.

"If someone says they're stressed, tired or want a reward, the system may keep nudging them toward sweeter, more indulgent, higher-calorie drinks because those are the easiest emotional matches," Alpert noted.

"That's good for sales," he said. "But, over time, it can quietly reinforce impulse-driven choices and make people less aware of how much the technology is shaping what they consume."

'We're taxing the rich': NYC Mayor Mamdani touts new $500M-a-year tax on luxury second homes

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani celebrated a proposal to tax luxury second homes owned by the ultra-wealthy, a plan expected to generate at least $500 million annually.

Earlier in the day, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul unveiled a pied-à-terre tax on luxury second homes in New York City valued at $5 million or more, allowing the city to impose an annual surcharge on ultra-wealthy nonresidents.

The proposal is projected to generate at least $500 million annually, according to Hochul.

Mamdani praised the plan, noting he campaigned on taxing the wealthy.

"When I ran for mayor, I said I was going to tax the rich. Well, today, we're taxing the rich," he said in a video posted on X.

He said the tax is designed for the "richest of the rich," people who "store their wealth in New York City real estate but who don't actually live here."

"This is a fundamentally unfair system that hurts working New Yorkers," Mamdani said. "Now, it's coming to an end."

He added that revenue from the tax would go toward initiatives such as free childcare, cleaner streets and safer neighborhoods.

"As mayor, I believe everyone has a role to play in contributing to our city, and some a little bit more than others," Mamdani said.

"Happy Tax Day, New York."

MAMDANI'S ESTATE TAX PLAN COULD DRIVE WEALTH OUT OF STATE, CRITICS WARN

According to the governor’s office, the pied-à-terre tax would apply to residential properties in New York City that are not used as a primary residence.

Hochul said the tax would "ensure that those that own luxury homes, but do not live in the City or pay City income tax are still fairly contributing towards the funding of the essential services like policing and parks that make New York City a global destination."

"It is not a tax on residents. That is so important. We're talking about people who are ultrawealthy," she said during a news conference Wednesday.

Hochul added that the proposal would help generate revenue as the city faces budget constraints without affecting most residents.

LA hotel leaders warn Mayor Bass' $30 wage mandate is killing business ahead of World Cup, Olympics

Members of the Los Angeles hotel industry are "sounding alarm bells" as they struggle over a city-mandated minimum wage hike signed into law by Democratic Mayor Karen Bass. Industry leaders warn the policy could lead to a severe shortage of room availability just as the city prepares to take the world stage.

"We are absolutely sounding alarm bells. If the city doesn't start working with the business community, by 2028, things will be very different in terms of room availability at hotels," Rosanna Maietta, president and CEO of the American Hotel and Lodging Association (AHLA) told Fox News Digital Wednesday.

The timing is critical. Los Angeles will host a string of high-profile global events, including the 2026 FIFA World Cup matches at SoFi Stadium, the 2026 U.S. Women’s Open Championship and the 2028 Summer Olympics. 

Maietta warned that for these events to succeed, hotels must be fully staffed, a task made increasingly difficult by rising labor costs.

CALIFORNIA'S $20 MINIMUM WAGE FOR FAST FOOD WORKERS LED TO 'NEGATIVE OUTCOMES,' RESEARCHERS SAY

"We've already seen that impact. I think about 100 restaurants have closed in the last year. If you think about just 6% of workers who have lost their jobs in less than a year, times that by four more years of this. It's just going to continue to have a negative ripple effect across the Los Angeles community," she said.

The phased-in mandate requires a massive pay hike for airport and hotel workers. The law, signed by Mayor Bass last year, requires hourly wages to increase by $2.50 annually until they reach $30 per hour by 2028.

A recent AHLA report suggests the mandate has stripped the industry of the flexibility needed to navigate fluctuating market conditions. According to the data, the policy has already led to:

RESTAURANTS WARN TIPPED WAGE CHANGES COULD RAISE PRICES, CUT JOBS, RESHAPE DINING EXPERIENCE

While Mayor Bass did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment, City Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez, a staunch supporter of the wage hike, dismissed the AHLA’s findings.

"Billionaire corporations spent millions of dollars trying to avoid paying their workers and providing them healthcare, and they failed," Soto-Martínez told Fox News Digital Monday. "Now, instead of paying their workers a living wage, they’re pouring even more money into misleading studies, ignoring independent findings that paying workers fairly would provide a massive boost to our economy."

However, the AHLA noted that the study was not merely a private initiative. Under a 2015 ordinance, the city is required to commission an economic study every three years to review the state of the local economy. The city contacted the AHLA to conduct this specific analysis and provided the questions used to gather member responses.

The AHLA is the largest hotel association in America, representing more than 30,000 members from all segments of the industry nationwide. Its methodology stated it was a "member survey of Los Angeles hotel operators and owners" that featured "16 questions in multiple-choice, select-all-that-apply, and ranking formats."

"The city was required to do this analysis, and so we complied," Maietta said, noting the irony of the councilmember’s criticism. "Our hotel employees in Los Angeles are paid some of the highest wages in the country, and we're proud of that. It’s not just about wages; we provide a pathway to growth and opportunity."

BUSINESS OWNER SAYS 'WE DON’T HAVE MONEY' AS NYC OFFICIALS PROPOSE MINIMUM WAGE HIKE: REPORT

The report found that none of the members believe Los Angeles is a favorable environment to make investments, and 80% said the city is not a good place for long-term hotel investment. Almost all the members surveyed said that rolling back the regulations would make the city’s market more attractive. 

The consequences are already being felt by guests and residents, Maietta noted.

"People in Los Angeles are seeing what's happening. You’re seeing retail stores and local restaurants that have been staples for years shutting down," Maietta said. "When you go to the hotel bar and have to wait 20 minutes for a drink because there’s only one bartender, that doesn’t lead to a great experience.

"People want their communities to thrive. They want good-paying jobs, but they also want local businesses to stay open. That is why the community is so concerned about the direction we're headed."

New Jersey Gov Mikie Sherrill rips FIFA after reports that NJ Transit tickets to World Cup will be over $100

New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill spoke about reports NJ Transit tickets from MetLife Stadium to New York Penn Station will cost over $100 on World Cup game days.

In a video posted to social media, Sherrill, who took office in January, wanted to tell those attending "exactly where things stand" amid the "recent headlines about transportation costs for World Cup games in New Jersey."

"Our administration inherited an agreement where FIFA is providing $0 for transportation to the World Cup — zero. That leaves New Jersey Transit with a $48 million bill to safely get 40,000 fans to and from every game," Sherrill said in the video.

"At the same time, FIFA is making $11 billion off of this World Cup and charging fans up to $10,000 for a single ticket for the final.

"I won't stick New Jersey's commuters with that tab for years to come — that's not fair. So here's the bottom line: FIFA should pay for the rides, but if they don't, I'm not going to let New Jersey commuters get taken for one."

MetLife Stadium will host eight matches, including the July 19 final. Penn Station will also have severe restrictions on game days, when only game attendees will be permitted to enter the NJ Transit portion of the Manhattan station.

Parking has also been banned at MetLife Stadium despite thousands of spots in the Meadowlands Sports Complex because the lots will be used for fan activation and security.

Current prices from East Rutherford to Penn Station are just under $13.

The Athletic also reported that there will be no price differences for seniors, children or passengers with disabilities, and a final decision on the pricing is expected in the next few days.

Last week, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority announced $80 tickets from Boston to Gillette Stadium, and the Boston Host Committee announced Tuesday that there will be $95 Yankee Line bus tickets to Foxborough.

Tailgating is banned at both Gillette Stadium and MetLife Stadium.

New Jersey lawmakers have proposed a bill that would impose "surcharges on certain transactions to support preparations for [the] hosting of special events," according to the N.J. Legislature. The bill's primary sponsor is Sen. Paul Sarlo, D-N.J.

If passed, a 3% sales tax would be added to retail goods, food and drink and event tickets in the Meadowlands District during the dates of the World Cup, according to the bill’s text.
