Trump signs proclamation preventing changes to Oval Office, other White House rooms
President Donald Trump signed a proclamation Thursday designating the Oval Office, the Outer Oval Office and the Cabinet Room as a national monument and federal landmark, a move intended to preserve the spaces and prevent future administrations from altering them.
"It won't be able to be taken down, destroyed, touched or anything else," Trump told reporters from the Oval Office. "It’s actually called a national monument. It’s a federal landmark. When completed… it'll make it impossible for anybody ever to destroy this incredible space. "
Fox News Digital has reached out to the White House.

Abdul El-Sayed's pattern of hostile exchanges with reporters draws scrutiny after viral moment
Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed, D-Mich., went viral this week for his latest altercation with a reporter, putting a spotlight on a history of tense exchanges with the press.
El-Sayed had a combative exchange with Sky News reporter James Matthews just hours before his victory in Tuesday's midterm elections. The exchange began when the British journalist attempted to question El-Sayed, but it was hardly the first time El-Sayed appeared to either lose his temper, interrupt a journalist or respond sharply to a reporter.
Heritage Foundation media fellow Tim Young is well aware that President Donald Trump also has a long history of criticizing reporters, but he believes the situations are "completely different."
"El-Sayed gets angry at the media for asking actual questions about him and his relationship to organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood. He legitimately doesn’t want to answer those questions, so he snaps," Young told Fox News Digital.
"Trump gets asked the same narrative-shaping questions all the time, then watches networks create false narratives about him on air, which makes him angry," Young continued. "The two are not the same."
El-Sayed recently scolded a reporter for asking him about Democratic Michigan Rep. Haley Stevens, sarcastically declaring, "You’re really asking the questions that the people want to hear."
"Ask me a serious question," he added.
El-Sayed also got testy with NBC News anchor Tom Llamas in October after Llamas questioned him about allegations involving his family's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.
"It’s funny to me. I was born in 1984, down the street in Rochester Hills. I was raised here in Michigan, went to the University of Michigan, rebuilt the health department in this city, led the health department in this county, and you want to ask me about Egypt in 1970? Are you serious?" he retorted.
El-Sayed then accused Llamas of using "hearsay evidence from a tweet" and suggested the "NBC Nightly News" anchor was "not serious" before asking, "Are you insinuating that somehow I was lying?"

That same month, El-Sayed shut down Free Press reporter Audrey Fahlberg for asking about private comments he made on leaked audio regarding some Michigan residents mourning the death of Ayatollah Khamenei.
El-Sayed insisted he would answer questions about gas prices and groceries but declined to "talk about leaked audio" and accused Fahlberg of seeking clickbait.
"I’m just not interested in this dog and pony show," El-Sayed said. "Ask smart questions."
Fahlberg responded that his thoughts on Khamenei were relevant considering he frequently discusses foreign policy, but El-Sayed refused to engage.
Fahlberg later said El-Sayed appeared to become furious whenever asked about the Iranian regime.
Weeks later, El-Sayed clashed with Fox News "Special Report" anchor Bret Baier, repeatedly interrupting Baier during an exchange over the Muslim Brotherhood.
El-Sayed has also spoken about confronting media personalities.
"You know how many terrible things Bill Maher has said about people like me? Terrible, awful things," El-Sayed said during a September interview with Chuck Todd.
"I would go on that show," El-Sayed continued. "I wanna give people the image of watching him get his a-- whooped on his own show by a guy who prays like I do."
UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN STUDENTS RALLY BEHIND ABDUL EL-SAYED AFTER HIS SENATE WIN OVER MIKE ROGERS
As for El-Sayed’s latest encounter, the viral Election Day moment occurred when he walked up to Matthews and asked, "Are you registered to vote in the state of Michigan?"
"I'm not," the British U.S.-based correspondent responded.
"Why would I care to have a conversation with you?" the Democrat fired back.
After Matthews answered that he was a journalist, El-Sayed scoffed while responding, "In the U.K."
"You know how many votes I want to get in the U.K.? Zero," El-Sayed told Mathews as he put both his hands on the reporter's shoulders. "I'm never running for office in the U.K."
Matthews stressed that the 2026 U.S. midterm election "matters to the world" and told El-Sayed he was "bidding to be a senator."
"A senator in where? What country? What country?" El-Sayed replied while placing his hands on Matthews' shoulders again.
"The United States," Matthews answered.
"What country are you with?" El-Sayed then asked.
"I'm based in the United States," Matthews said.
"But you report for where? Where are your viewers?" El-Sayed interrupted.
El-Sayed dismissed Matthews after the reporter explained that Sky News serves an international audience, insisting "Sky News is not viewed in the United States of America," then sneering that "like five people" watch the network in the U.S.
"I've answered all the questions. I've answered all the questions for the viewers of the United Kingdom. So, I'm going to ask you to stop chasing me around. Please," El-Sayed said before walking away. Matthews denied to El-Sayed he was "chasing" him around.
"If you keep being in my way, I'm not going to be very happy," El-Sayed told the reporter.

Footage of the incident quickly went viral, and many observers criticized El-Sayed for physically touching the reporter. Piers Morgan called it "pathetic" and "very patronizing."
Reason’s Reem Ibrahim said El-Sayed "looks like an absolute p---k" and former Israeli spokesperson Eylon Levy called him a "bully."
Students for Trump founder Ryan Fournier called the behavior "unhinged," while Spencer Pratt asked, "Why is this angry little Elf Sayed so comfortable putting hands on another man like that?"
Communications trainer Jocelin Martinez, who provides media training and message development to clients, doesn’t feel El-Sayed needs to change his approach after he crushed Republican rival Mike Rogers in the critical Senate race for a seat Republicans were hoping to flip this election cycle.
"El-Sayed's communication style got him elected in Michigan because the moment requires leadership with gumption," Martinez told Fox News Digital.
The El-Sayed campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Ex-Biden official projected to win bid to unseat Mike Lawler in high-stakes House race
A former Biden administration aide is projected to defeat Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., in one of the most closely watched races of the 2026 election cycle.
Cait Conley, a military veteran who served on the White House National Security Council, will likely be coming to Congress next year after beating the two-term incumbent for the job, The Associated Press projected late Thursday.
Multiple forecasts suggested the seat would be a likely pickup for Democrats.
THUNE WEIGHS NIGHTMARE SCENARIO FOR GOP AS DEMOCRATS THREATEN TO FLIP HOUSE
Both parties poured enormous resources into the race for New York’s 17th Congressional District in the months before Election Day. It was widely seen as key to both parties’ quests to win the House majority.
The district, which sits just north of New York City, was won by Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024.
Lawler spent much of the race walking a political tightrope between supporting President Donald Trump and positioning himself as an independent voice.
And the race itself was marked by bitter divisions on issues like immigration enforcement and taxes.
Among Lawler’s backers were the parents of Sheridan Gorman, a college student from his district who was killed in Chicago while she was out with friends. Gorman’s accused killer is an illegal immigrant who was previously arrested for shoplifting, but was released without a federal immigration detainer because of Chicago’s sanctuary city laws.
Lawler and Gorman's parents have pointed to her killing as proof that Democrat-backed sanctuary laws — which are active in New York as well — are deadly for Americans. He argued that Conley would do nothing to mitigate the effects of illegal immigration.
Conley, for her part, condemned Gorman’s killing and has said she is against illegal immigration, but she has not spoken out against sanctuary laws specifically.
Conley served as counterterrorism director on the White House National Security Council from 2021 to 2023 and spent the remainder of former President Joe Biden’s term as a senior advisor on election security at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
Fox News Power Rankings rated the district as "lean Democrat," while the Cook Political Report ranked it a toss-up.
Hegseth expands National Guard operations in DC, authorizes police patrol cars, Humvees and boats
War Secretary Pete Hegseth has authorized National Guard troops in Washington, D.C., to use dozens of marked police cars, military vehicles and boats as local officials demand an end to the deployment.
Two Pentagon officials confirmed to Fox News Digital that Hegseth signed an Oct. 29 memo authorizing up to 60 marked patrol cars, Humvees, military tactical vehicles, D.C. National Guard boats and up to 20 light towers and generators.
Roughly 3,000 National Guard troops are deployed in the nation's capital as part of President Donald Trump's crime crackdown.

"The secretary of war has authorized the continued use of National Guard personnel and capabilities in support of the Make D.C. Safe and Beautiful mission," a War Department official told Fox News Digital.
"The October 29, 2026, guidance authorizes the use of up to 60 marked patrol cars, military tactical vehicles, up to 20 light towers and generators and D.C. National Guard maritime boat assets in support of federal and local law enforcement operations."
Politico first reported the authorization, which follows Hegseth's decision last year to allow National Guard troops to carry service-issued weapons when required by their mission.
TRUMP’S DC LAW-AND-ORDER BLITZ MARKS ONE YEAR WITH EYE-POPPING HAUL OF SUSPECTS
The move comes as D.C. Councilmember Brooke Pinto, chair of the council's public safety committee, held a hearing Thursday examining the federal law enforcement and National Guard presence.
"I am very hopeful and optimistic that we now have the partners we need at the state and congressional level to push back and demand that this unnecessary, harmful and unlawful military presence be removed from the district," she said during the hearing.
Pinto called on newly elected Democratic governors in Georgia, Iowa, Nevada, Ohio and Texas to withdraw the combined 628 troops she said their states have deployed to Washington.
Pinto also urged congressional Democrats to increase oversight of federal law enforcement operations in January, including requirements for identifying badges and body cameras.
Big Ten conference commissioner gives tone deaf statement about 24-team College Football Playoff
If it feels like it's a ridiculous time to be a college football fan, that's because it is.
While the AP Top 25 poll has become a running joke, at least fans can comfort themselves with the knowledge that it has little importance when it matters. Then the College Football Playoff selection committee released their poll this week and, well, to say it was indefensibly bad is a charitable overstatement.
It's atrocious. It's humiliating. It's disgraceful. And it requires an entire overhaul of the selection committee process.
WE NEED TO ABOLISH THE CFP SELECTION COMMITTEE AFTER YET ANOTHER EMBARRASSMENT
Don't worry though, because starting in 2027, the powers that be have voted to make more money and further remove what made college football special with a participation trophy 24-team playoff. This proposal had widespread support among many coaches who will now have greater job security, as well as some conference commissioners who have never actually watched or followed college football.
Case in point? Big Ten conference commissioner Tony Petitti.
Just this week, he defended the enlarged format with "logic" that is so disconnected from actual objective reality and history that it beggars belief.
In an interview with College Sports Radio on Sirius XM, Petitti explained his "thinking" on the 24-team playoff coming next season and how it will impact the importance of games across the sport, week in and week out.
"More games are going to matter," he said, inexplicably. "The way this format works is it’s got all different kinds of incentives, right? You’re going to fight like crazy to be inside the top 24, and then you want to get a home game, so you’re going to fight like crazy to be inside 16, and then you want to be inside eight, so you get a home game and a bye.

"So you’re always playing for something. There’s a lot at stake across all of this, and I think this year has just proven that trying to separate 12 teams from everybody else is just going to be incredibly difficult in the way college football is structured right now, and how tough it is to win the road. How the talent has kind of been more dispersed over many more programs, and then last thing is we just need to have give fans games that matter … I don’t think there’s any controversy in that at all."
It's worth raising the question, do the people who run college football actually follow the sport? Has Petitti ever watched college football? Part of what makes it special and unique, as opposed to the NFL's regular season slog, is that the games actually matter. There are stakes, because the margin for error is so small. Expanding the playoff removes those stakes, particularly for the superconference teams and especially the SEC.
This season, thanks to the selection committee's incompetence, we're already heading towards a three-loss SEC team, if not multiple three-loss teams, reaching the tournament. In a 24-team format, we'll have four-loss teams, if not five-loss SEC teams, reaching the top-24. Results are going to matter less than ever.
In a roundabout way, this might actually help lead to more games between marquee opponents, specifically because the outcome doesn't matter. But claiming that fans will feel the same level of intensity, stakes, excitement and energy over fighting to be in the top-8 so they can get a bye? That's insanity.
To be fair to Petitti, he did identify that home playoff games would be a big draw for fans.
SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER
"So I think look, and then when you get to the playoff, you know fans are going to show up," Petitti said. "These on-campus games are one of the best parts about it. Going the 16 on-campus games is going to be absolutely great. You know, when fan bases get a home game, especially if that’s unexpected when the season started, you’re going to see incredible reactions across college football."
The issue? They'll be a big draw because the regular season is now so meaningless. We've already seen big programs struggle with attendance this year, outside marquee opponents. Just imagine how little interest there'll be in USC-Maryland or Miami-Stanford when the results don't mean anything.
What makes all this even more frustrating is that everyone knows the actual motivation behind the playoff expansion: money. More playoff games means more high-value television properties to sell. The 24-team format ensures that programs from the Big Ten and SEC with large, passionate fanbases will have reasons to watch games, even when they're 6–4.
It's rewarding mediocrity in search of more financial rewards. Which is what college football has become in recent years.
Nick Bosa and model girlfriend win 49ers bye week with injury return and topless modeling shoot
I'm going to start out by saying that I'm not going to rank which one of these is more important to the San Francisco 49ers season. That's not fair to me, and it's particularly not fair to Nick Bosa and his model girlfriend Ella Ailiff.
Nobody would have blamed them for putting their feet up during the bye week and doing absolutely nothing. The NFL season is long and the Niners are only seven games into a seventeen-game regular season marathon.
This is a team, at 6-1, that has the playoffs in its crosshairs. The bye week is an opportunity to get healthy, especially for a guy like Bosa who’s missed several games with an injury. He did that.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
On Wednesday, he told reporters that he feels great and is ready to go. He added that he thinks he's ready for the long haul as well. That's great news for the 49ers as they look ahead at what's left on the schedule.
They want to keep the momentum they've built up going. Bosa knew the importance of working his way back, and he got the job done, but he wasn’t the only one contributing to the bye week win.
His girlfriend, Ella Ailiff, was putting in work modeling for Guess. She was busy navigating what she called "90s guess vibes." Those are some of the best vibes, in my opinion.
Part of executing the game plan during her modeling shoot was from the looks of it getting topless, which she did. You can see a "Guess girl" screenshot of that from her Instagram Story here.
An all around solid bye week for these two. Let's give them the credit they deserve. They're healthy. They're not sitting around. They want to help the team win. That's winning football.
All that's left to do is get back on the field. There's a chance that happens on Sunday afternoon at Levi's Stadium when the 49ers play the Las Vegas Raiders, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport.
Whether Bosa's on the field this weekend or not, he's taken a positive step towards making that a reality by hitting the practice field this week and let's just say Ailiff's Guess shoot didn't hurt either.
Tourist hot spot faces housing revolt as locals demand cuts to vacation lodging
One of Spain's most popular vacation islands is facing calls for a limit on tourist accommodations to curb crowding.
Jordi Mora, president of Pimem, a federation representing small and medium-sized businesses in Mallorca, said the island needs to take stronger steps to control tourism, according to the Majorca Daily Bulletin.
"We need to curb tourism, which includes reducing the total number of tourist beds," Mora told the outlet.
POPULAR DESTINATION CRACKS DOWN HARD ON TOURISTS AS NEW LIMITS THREATEN SUMMER GETAWAYS
Mallorca, one of the Balearic Islands, received some 13.5 million visitors in 2025, a significant number for an island measuring roughly 1,400 square miles, Fox News Digital previously reported.
Mora's proposal would include reducing the number of accommodations available in registered vacation rentals and taking stronger action against illegal rentals, the Majorca Daily Bulletin reported. Fox News Digital reached out to Pimem for comment.
Mora said some smaller hotel operators would support reducing accommodations if the changes were made through agreements and incentives.
"If this is approached through consensus and incentives, it is possible to move toward a more sustainable model," Mora said.

A travel expert previously discussed the issues faced by the Balearic Island with Fox News Digital.
"Once a place goes viral, it can get flooded with visitors really quickly. It’s great that people want to explore new places, but those places aren’t always set up to handle that kind of attention," travel expert Jordi Lippe-McGraw said.
"That’s when you start to see overcrowding, higher costs for locals and more pressure on the area overall."
Mallorca has also been exploring a shift toward attracting fewer visitors who spend more money.
Pedro Homar, managing director of Palma's tourism board, said Mallorca would prefer to attract wealthy American tourists, Fox News Digital reported.
"Tourism is our way of life," Homar told The Wall Street Journal. "The change of model is quality over quantity. We need to have fewer tourists who spend more."
American tourists in Spain spent about $410 per day this past July, compared with $240 for German visitors and $260 for British travelers, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Mora also said the island does not need more tourists to grow its economy.
"We must increase value and ensure that this growth benefits society as a whole," he told the Majorca Daily Bulletin.
The clash with residents is especially noticeable in Mallorca, where thousands took to the streets in June 2025 to protest the growth of tourism on the island, Fox News Digital reported at the time.
Demonstrators marched with signs saying, "One more tourist, one less resident."

Mallorca's large visitor numbers have also brought other tourism concerns into focus.
Viral videos over the summer appeared to show pickpockets targeting tourists near Palma, including older visitors near popular attractions, Fox News Digital previously reported.
Travel expert Angel Castellanos told Fox News Digital at the time that crowded tourist areas can create opportunities for thieves, particularly when visitors are distracted or unfamiliar with their surroundings.
"The takeaway isn't to avoid these places," Castellanos said. "It's to travel smarter."

MLW's Trevor Lee set for major high-stakes match against Yota Tsuji at Saturday Night SuperFight
Trevor Lee officially signed with Major League Wrestling (MLW) seven months ago and he has kept his foot on the gas pedal since stepping in between the ropes for the company.
Lee has gone toe-to-toe with some of the best MLW has to offer, including Kushida, Austin Aries and Místico, while also holding the MLW Southern Crown Championship. He broke the news with OutKick Dropkick/Fox News Digital in April and said at the time he had been waiting for a good opportunity to come his way.

Now, he’s making the most of it.
Lee will have a chance to make a statement at Saturday Night SuperFight this weekend when he steps into the ring with IWGP heavyweight champion Yota Tsuji, who is a superstar with New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
"I think it’s been going great," Lee told OutKick Dropkick of his time with MLW so far. "I think with the last time we spoke, I probably said something along the lines of, I just want to go out there and show what I can do, and I feel like over these past few months, I've had the capability to do that. I think that we're gonna be looking at even more opportunity coming this Saturday when I wrestle Yota. I mean, I couldn't ask for a better opportunity, right? The IWGP heavyweight champion. I'm looking at this match like kind of like a job interview, right? And, what a way to, what a way to try to start it out."
Lee was the one who called out Tsuji for this match at one of MLW’s biggest shows of the year.
MLW'S COURT BAUER TOUTS 'HUGE YEAR' FOR COMPANY AMID MEDIA DEALS, SPLASH MOVES
Tsuji is a two-time IWGP heavyweight champion, two-time IWGP global heavyweight champion and has held the IWGP Intercontinental Championship and the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship one-time each.
The stakes are as high as they could be going into this match.
"I wanna show that I'm ready for that opportunity and if we're gonna bring these guys in and we're gonna highlight these guys as being the top guys that they truly are, Yota is the top of the top at New Japan," he continued. "So, if he's gonna come over here and he's gonna ask for a fight, then, you know, I'm looking for an opportunity. And I told you that right the last time we spoke, that I'm just wanting opportunities and what bigger opportunity."
Tsuji already has a cast of wrestlers gunning for his title. Most recently, it was Boltin Oleg and Kenny Omega.
Though Saturday night’s match is a non-title fight, the potential of Lee pinning Tsuji may put him among the contenders for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship.

OutKick Dropkick asked Lee if he’s thought about that possibility.
"One-hundred percent," he said. "I'd love to wrestle for New Japan. I've never wrestled for New Japan. I've wrestled for a lot of companies in, in my career, but, I've never had the opportunity to even go to Japan and wrestle in Japan. So, what better way to step in day one to show everybody, hey, I've already beat the top guy here and, and I'm ready to continue to do it again."
Lee vs. Tsuji is one of seven matches on the massive Saturday Night SuperFight card, which will feature MLW world heavyweight champion Killer Kross going up against Josh Bishop in a last man standing match for the title.
Lee predicted that the Chicago crowd will be "rocking" as MLW brings a different style of pro wrestling to the masses.
MLW’s Saturday Night SuperFight can be seen at home on Veeps, starting at 8 p.m. ET.

'Wipe those tears from our eyes and play like 46': Lions defense turns Jack Campbell tragedy into fuel
The pain of watching Jack Campbell collapse helplessly on the Ford Field turf Sunday has not completely subsided for the Detroit Lions. It certainly is not forgotten by teammates on defense that spent those horrible moments wiping away tears as their captain lay motionless with a neck injury.
But four days later, following Campbell's mostly positive report about having lower body motion, the focus has shifted to how to continue handling the situation.
The prayers persist. That hasn't stopped.
But the anguish, despair and despondency are yielding to something different. Something better:
Inspiration.
"You're kidding yourself to say it's not hard for the players to see something like that happen to anyone, let alone a player of his stature, of his makeup, of his heart," Lions defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard said on Thursday. "And to think these players are going to walk back in here like nothing happened?
"So the theme has been, let's prepare and play like 46 – every day."
Sheppard said a key fourth-down calls he made toward the end of Sunday's game was calling a blitz against the Minnesota Vikings when that is not typical for the Lions. He said the message to players then was, "we're about to do this for 46," which is Campbell's number.
That approach has extended through this week.
"I wake up [thinking] 'what would 46 want me to do today?' Sheppard said. "Would he want us to sulk and feel sorry? I can guarantee you, y'all know Jack, absolutely not. He'd be p---ed off if he found out guys were crying and guys were about him. That's just his makeup.
"So that's what we're doing in everything we do. Every meeting I told the unit, every walkthrough, every play, you all know how Jack prepares. You all know how he plays. The way you honor him is to wipe those tears from your eyes and make sure we prepare and play like him.
"So that's the thing moving forward to this week."
This is good coaching.

Sheppard cannot deny the emotions his players invested on the scary and uncertain moments while Campbell was being placed on a immobilization board and carted off the field.
But the NFL season has not stopped since the game moved ahead. And like the game, the season continues for the Lions.
And so Sheppard is asking his defensive players to accept something horrible, acknowledge it, and not only overcome it but turn it into a tool.
"That is," Sheppard repeated "the theme for the week."
