Tuesday night’s Democratic primary contests in New York City pitted Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s slate of socialist candidates against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries' establishment picks, including two incumbents. It was a massacre, with all three of Jeffries’ pals left eating dirt.

These three wins for the far left represent a sea change in the Democratic Party that is starting to look a lot like President Donald Trump’s takeover of the GOP a decade ago, one that left most of the Republican establishment shocked and defeated.

In a nutshell, what we see in New York and across the country is a battle between old school, native, often Black or Hispanic Democrats and a new anti-capitalist, immigrant-driven party, heavily invested in increasing Muslim political power and demonizing Israel.

It is no accident, for example, that Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y. (but not for long), was ousted by far-leftist Brad Lander. Both are Jewish, but while Goldman supports Israel’s right to exist, Lander says whatever his Islamist masters tell him to.

FAR-LEFT SURGE: MAMDANI-BACKED CANDIDATES OUST DEM ESTABLISHMENT INCUMBENTS

Meanwhile, podcaster and Cuba tourist Hasan Piker gleefully issued a warning Tuesday night to pro-Israel New York Rep. Richie Torres, who won his Democratic primary: "I’ll see you in 2 years, motherf----r, I’m coming for you Ritchie," Piker ranted.

There are no better avatars for the battle over America’s oldest political party than Jeffries and Mamdani. The former is a classic machine Democrat, the latter a charismatic upstart, and it is perfectly clear who is in the ascendency. As Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., put it in his prediction on Tuesday: "The dirtbag left is surging,"

As usual, Fetterman is on an island. Most moderate Democrats are desperate to appease the communist electoral bitzkrieg in the hopes of being spared by it.

DAVID MARCUS: RISE OF MARXISM IS A HYRDRA DEMOCRATS CREATED BUT CAN'T CONTROL

Here is what Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., who has the moral fortitude of a turnstile, had to say Tuesday night: "I don’t know man, who is ‘the Democratic Party’ if it’s not the voters?... and right now they are demanding our party be bolder."

Far out, dude.

This is precisely why the fight between the Democratic Socialists and the traditional Democrats has been so asymmetrical. Mamdani and his acolytes say people like Murphy and Jeffries are weak and need to be replaced, even call them monsters, while Murphy nods along, agreeing that communism must be embraced.

DEM DISORDER: DNC SQUABBLES PLAY OUT IN NYC MAYORAL RACE FOR ALL TO SEE

The socialists don’t even need to fight the establishment anymore at this point, because the establishment has surrendered to them.

Further, what Tuesday’s results showed was that either through atrophy or incompetence, the once-vaunted Democratic political machine that Jeffries controls has just wasted away. Even public sector unions, once his bread and butter are leaking to the left.

The upshot is that, just as in last year’s New York mayoral race, a coalition of guilt-ridden, college-educated White voters and immigrants looking for government handouts has utterly eroded traditional Black and Hispanic political power.

MAMDANI'S POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE ROCKS DEMOCRATS, DIVIDING PARTY ON PATH FORWARD

Between now and the midterms, you will hear pundit after pundit on both sides smile and say, "Well, socialism does OK in blue cities, but good luck beating Republicans in competitive districts." But the socialists don’t want to beat Republicans electorally, they want Republicans in re-education camps. The people they want to beat are the Democrats.

Well over a decade ago, lefties like George Soros realized that down-ballot races, such as for district attorney, are low-hanging fruit in big cities. The next thing you knew, the cities all had far-left prosecutors, then city council members and now mayors.

You look at guys like Goldman and think, "You brought these people into the country, you propped them up and now you're surprised that they ate you alive?" There's no place left for an old-school liberal, and the younger "enlightened" ones who thought they could have it both ways brought it on themselves.

JOHN FETTERMAN’S FALL FROM HERO TO HERETIC EXPOSES DEMOCRATS’ HARD LEFT TURN

Now, progressive politicians like Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., are trying to build a bridge between the Marxists and the establishment. Not only is this an obvious Trojan horse effort, but Khanna and AOC may find that after communists cross bridges, they tend to burn them.

At this point, it seems that the only way the Democrats can get out of this nosedive into communism is through a compelling 2028 candidate for president with the courage to attack it head on.

The only Democrat left who meets that description is Fetterman, and frankly, every Marxist win makes the case for him to run stronger and stronger.

For now, the rise of the new communist left in the Democratic Party is all but complete, and our country will never be the same.

A lot has been made about the different foreign tourists who have come to the United States to cheer on their teams during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

While most countries have been well-represented, no one has been having more fun in America than the Scots.

From drinking the entire city of Boston out of beer to discovering the beauty of Buc-ee's, the Scottish supporters have turned the Land of the Free into their own personal playground, and on Monday, they set their sights on their next destination.

The Tartan Army -- the name of the most ardent group of Scotland fans -- made its way to the southernmost metropolitan area in the continental United States, as the entire city of Miami welcomed them with open arms.

SCOTTISH BREWERY SENDS IN REINFORCEMENTS AS TARTAN ARMY CONTINUES TO DRINK BARS DRY IN BOSTON

The Scots famously turned Fenway Park into a Tartan wonderland last week, but they may have outdone themselves when they showed up at loanDepot Park to watch the Marlins play ball on Monday evening.

As a lifelong Miami Marlins fan, I always wondered what it would take to get our home stadium to fill up like it does in other great baseball towns like St. Louis and Chicago.

Who knew all they needed were tens of thousands of drunk Scottish soccer fans to fill in all the empty seats in between the diehards and the scattered season ticket holders?

WORLD CUP FANS CAN'T STOP SMILING AFTER A MASSIVE WEEKEND OF FUN ACROSS THE US, TIME CAPSULES & BRISKET!

That's not even the most impressive scene from the day, either.

Check out the video footage of the Tartan Army marching through the streets of Little Havana on the way to the game.

I was just at a Marlins game over the weekend, and those streets are fairly tightly packed down there in Little Havana, so kudos to the Scots and the Marlins for making this happen from a logistics perspective.

WORLD CUP FANS FALL IN LOVE WITH AMERICAN CULTURE, COMFORT FOOD CLASSICS

It wasn't just baseball on the agenda for the Tartan Army, either.

If you were chilling in a Miami-area hotel pool over the weekend trying to nurse a hangover with some morning sun rays, you were in for a rude awakening... literally.

Those pesky Scots decided to bring the bagpipes with them to the pool, treating hundreds of college-aged kids on summer break to the song of their people.

THE VERDICT IS IN: EUROPEANS ARE OBSESSED WITH RURAL AMERICA DURING 2026 WORLD CUP STAY

I love the guy in the corner who just gets up and leaves his wife midway through the video.

Everyone else seems to be enjoying themselves, and who could blame them.

And if you thought you could escape the bagpipe onslaught by going to South Beach, think again.

Here's one intrepid member of the Tartan Army going mobile with his pipes, complete with roller skates, to serenade people and distract them from the fact that they paid $100 for parking.

WATCH THE WORLD CUP FINAL ON FOX ONE

Scotland will certainly win the award for most enthusiastic fanbase, that's for sure, as they still have one more match before their World Cup journey likely ends.

If they can pull off a miracle against Brazil on Wednesday, it will extend the trip of a lifetime for thousands of Scottish nationals.

FOX ONE’S NEW WORLD CUP VIEWING EXPERIENCE

Even if they don't win, however, you might have a hard time convincing a majority of these fans to go back to Scotland.

A fugitive accused of helping mastermind a $3.7 billion Medicare fraud scheme — one of the largest in U.S. history — is in American custody after authorities tracked him down in Turkey and flew him back to the U.S. to face charges, the FBI announced Monday.

Ibrahim Khaldoon Hilmi was recently detained by Turkish authorities after he fled the U.S. in May 2025, the FBI said. The FBI's Critical Incident Response Group flew out to Turkey and transported Hilmi to the U.S. on Friday through a foreign transfer of custody operation.

FBI Director Kash Patel hailed the operation as a major victory in the bureau's effort to track down fugitives accused of stealing taxpayer dollars.

"Ibrahim Khaldoon Hilmi is charged with one of the biggest Medicare scams in history — allegedly orchestrating a massive $3.7 billion scheme to defraud Medicare," Patel said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "He's been on the run since May of 2025 — but we got him."

LOS ANGELES HOSPICE FRAUD REACHES BILLIONS AS MEDICARE PROVIDERS SCAM FEDERAL SYSTEM WITH FAKE COMPANIES

Patel credited FBI Miami, the Department of Justice and Turkish authorities with helping secure Hilmi's capture and return to the United States.

The arrest marks the second high-profile return of an alleged Medicare fraud fugitive in less than a week.

On Thursday, the FBI announced it had brought back Herbert Kimble, who investigators say had been on the run since 2024 after allegedly orchestrating a separate Medicare fraud scheme worth approximately $1.3 billion.

MINNESOTA MAN MARKS FBI'S FIRST ARREST FROM DOJ'S 'MOST WANTED FRAUDSTERS' LIST

The two cases involve roughly $5 billion in alleged fraud targeting taxpayer-funded healthcare programs.

Patel said Hilmi's return demonstrates that suspects accused of large-scale fraud will be pursued regardless of where they flee.

"This yet another massive win for this FBI’s war on fraudsters with the White House Task Force led by VP Vance," Patel said, "and a monumental victory for the Trump administration, showing that any criminal actor who steals from the American taxpayer will be caught, no matter where they try to hide."

Patel also thanked U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack, saying the case against Hilmi was only possible thanks to his "invaluable" and "tireless work."

Miles Russell is the youngest player in the 2026 U.S. Open field at just 17 years old. Teeing it up in a major championship at that age, let alone making the cut as he did at Shinnecock Hills, made for an already unforgettable week for him and his family.

The young man had one final surprise up his sleeve for Sunday's final round, however, that not only his family will cherish forever, but made plenty of golf fans watching the moment unfold a bit misty-eyed.

After hitting his approach shot into the par-4 18th, Russell's caddie made his way over to the gallery. He proceeded to take off his caddie bib and hand it and Russell's golf bag over to Russell's father, Joe.

TEENAGE PHENOM MILES RUSSELL MAKES ENTIRE GOLF WORLD FEEL OLD WITH EYE-POPPING QUOTE AHEAD OF US OPEN DEBUT

According to the NBC broadcast, the entire thing was Russell's idea. He approached USGA rules officials before teeing off on Sunday to ask them if it was okay to have his dad take over caddying duties for the final hole, and they gave him the green light.

Talk about a Father's Day gift that may never be topped.

"It was pretty cool," Russell said after Sunday's final round. "Just there walking up 18, that's when he stepped in. It was kind of a fun Father's Day gift. Kind of cool since it was my first one. Hopefully it's something he'll remember for a long time."

Russell shot 3-over in the opening two rounds of the U.S. Open to make the cut by two shots. During Saturday's third round, he struggled a bit en route to a 74, but backed it up with a final round score of even par.

Russell qualified for this week's U.S. Open after advancing in the final stage of qualifying in a three-man playoff vying for two spots in the field. He had Charlie Woods, Tiger's son, on the bag as his caddie during the qualifier. Both Woods and Russell have committed to play college golf at Florida State.

In 2024, Russell became the youngest player in Korn Ferry Tour history to make the cut in a tournament, eventually finishing T-20

Serena Williams surprised the tennis world on Sunday, as the 44-year-old tennis legend will make her return to Wimbledon after accepting a wildcard.

Williams received the final women’s singles slot, which had a gap following a previous announcement on Tuesday.

She had already gotten a wild card to compete with her sister, Venus Williams, in Wimbledon’s doubles competition. However, she noted she would consider a singles return earlier this month.

"You think I’m ready for singles? I need to get to work," Serena said at SW19, per Yahoo Sports.

Serena has won women’s singles at Wimbledon seven times across her illustrious career, but there is still something she can chase: Margaret Court’s 24 Grand Slam victories. Serena sits at 23 for her career.

SERENA WILLIAMS OPENS UP ABOUT 31-POUND WEIGHT LOSS USING GLP-1 MEDICATION: ‘SOMETHING I SUFFERED WITH’

It was 2019 the last time Serena won a women’s singles match, and it came at Wimbledon against Simona Halep from Romania. She’s only played just two doubles matches since returning to competition after being out of the game for four years.

Serena’s career accolades goes on longer than a CVS receipt, winning each Grand Slam – Australian Open, French Open and the U.S. Open included - at least three times. And alongside her sister, Serena has accomplished the career "Golden Slam" in singles and doubles.

She’s the most recognizable female player in the sport today, and fans from around the globe will surely be tuned in to see how far she can go in this year’s tournament.

At Wimbledon in 2022, Serena said she didn’t know if it would be her last appearance at the tournament.

"Who knows where I’ll pop up?" Serena, who also had a wild card for this Wimbledon, said at the time.

She has always loved playing on grass, winning 107 of her 123 singles matches on the surface, which bodes well for her return.

Serena will find out who she faces in the first round this Friday, while the tournament begins June 29.

The rise of GLP-1s is changing how Americans shop for groceries, consume food at restaurants and approach the gym. It’s also having an impact on the wedding industry.

Bridal retailers say they're carrying additional inventory, expediting more orders and performing a growing number of alterations in the wake of so many brides’ dramatic body transformations, reported the Wall Street Journal. Some shops have begun asking brides-to-be to sign waivers acknowledging they’re buying a dress that doesn’t yet fit.

A New York bride who has lost 50 pounds using GLP-1 drugs was asked to sign a waiver before ordering a dress that was 3 inches smaller in the waist than her current frame, the Journal reported. Such waivers existed before, the newspaper said, but they're more common now.

A late 2025 poll by health-policy research firm KFF (formerly the Kaiser Family Foundation) found that about one in eight American adults (12%) say that they are currently taking a GLP-1 drug designed for weight loss and to treat diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions.

The survey also found that "nearly one in five adults (18%) say at some point they have taken a GLP-1 drug" and that "women were more likely than men to say they are currently taking GLP-1 drugs (15% vs. 9%)."

According to a survey conducted by online wedding planning company Zola, "10% of couples planning 2026 weddings say they are currently using a GLP-1, with another 10% considering it before the big day."

People taking newer GLP-1-based weight-loss medications often lose about 10% to 15% of their body weight, with some studies showing weight loss approaching 20%, the Mayo Clinic reported.

The use of weight-loss drugs caused David’s Bridal, widely considered the largest bridal retailer in the U.S., to issue a "Fit Guarantee" to customers that went into effect in May 2026.

"No matter the dress – from bridal gowns, bridesmaids dresses, prom, mother-of-the-bride and special occasion fashions – David's Fit Guarantee is a brand assurance that David's will work with guests to get the perfect fit for their body, their style and their moment; because size doesn't matter, fit does," the company announced in a press release.

"David's is on a mission to reduce ‘fit anxiety’ for today's shoppers. Whether it means securing the dress in a smaller or larger size, tailoring the fit or customizing the details, David's is helping brides and party-goers shop with confidence and peace of mind," the release also said.

The company’s website says, "We’ll work with you to get a new size or work with our alterations team to make sure you have the perfect fit for your day."

David's Bridal CEO Kelly Cook told ABC News the company knew it had "to do something really special" to serve brides losing a substantial amount of weight.

"Size anxiety has always been one of the number one things brides are worried about," Cook said. "But it's at a heightened level that we haven't seen before."

David’s reported that over the past year, the company has seen a 50% increase in rush orders and 20% of bridal customers shifting to shorter dress-shopping timelines. Nine to 12 months before the wedding used to be common, and now more brides are opting to purchase their dresses six months ahead of time or less.

Bridal consultants say dress recommendations are changing as some brides anticipate additional weight loss before their weddings.

Bridal-studio owner Natalie Harris told the Journal she advises brides who are anticipating further weight loss before their big day to consider "forgiving silhouettes" with adjustable backs and flared waistlines.

A multi-agency manhunt is underway for a 22-year-old suspect accused of a violent cross-state crime spree, which included a string of highway shootings near the FIFA World Cup at Arrowhead Stadium and a fiery standoff with police.

The FBI's Kansas City field office announced a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Oscar Sanchez-Munoz, who is described as a White and Hispanic man weighing about 184 pounds. 

He is 5 feet 8 inches tall, has brown hair, brown eyes and a tattoo on his right forearm.

Authorities are issuing a stern warning to the public that Sanchez-Munoz should be considered "armed and dangerous."

MULTI-STATE POLICE PURSUIT OF ALLEGED KIDNAPPER ENDS IN FIERY COLLISION WITH 3 DEAD

The hunt for Sanchez-Munoz stems from multiple violent incidents spanning both Kansas and Missouri. 

A state warrant was issued for his arrest on Tuesday after he allegedly shot at a car June 11 in Wyandotte County, Kansas. 

In addition to the criminal discharge of a firearm charge, Sanchez-Munoz has an outstanding warrant in the same county for aggravated assault, which carries a $100,000 bond.

Kansas City Police Department (KCPD) officials said they believe Sanchez-Munoz is also the prime suspect in five shootings Tuesday night in Kansas City, Missouri, which happened along Interstate 70, just miles from Arrowhead Stadium — where several FIFA World Cup matches were being held.

POLICE CHASE ENDS WITH TRUCK EXPLOSION AND FIRE IN DRAMATIC SCENE CAPTURED ON CAMERA

One person was killed in the shootings, another suffered serious injuries and multiple others — including an Uber driver who was shot in the leg while taking fans to the World Cup match between Argentina and Algeria — are expected to recover, Fox News reported.

The Kansas City shootings sparked an intense, overnight standoff at a home in Independence, Missouri, which ended in the house catching fire, according to police. 

Once the flames were extinguished and the house was deemed safe by fire personnel Wednesday morning, investigators, along with K-9 units and Missouri State Fire Marshals, thoroughly searched the burned property, but were unable to find Sanchez-Munoz.

Authorities did, however, successfully recover the car believed to be involved in the Tuesday night shootings.

No potential motives have been released, as of Saturday afternoon.

The FBI and KCPD are urging the public to remain vigilant and call 911 immediately if they spot Sanchez-Munoz.

Anyone with information regarding his whereabouts is asked to call 911, submit tips to kccrimestoppers.com or contact their local FBI office, or contact their local FBI office.
