‘Inappropriate’ adult attire at Disneyland is 'absolutely sinister,' warns former Biden staffer

Former Biden White House staffer Yemisi Egbewole posted a TikTok video on March 25 criticizing what she described as inappropriate adult clothing at Disneyland, recounting her recent visit to the California theme park and arguing that social norms in child-focused spaces are being eroded.

"There is something absolutely sinister about an adult who actively chooses not to wear appropriate clothing in an environment that is marketed towards children, and we need to talk about it more," Egbewole said.

"Because we have allowed people to do it … not have a say on how people express themselves. But in doing so, we have eroded rules."

Egbewole framed her remarks around what she described as unwritten societal expectations that govern behavior in family-oriented settings.

"Rules that don't have to be on a board … but rules that exist in society without having to say so," she said.

Describing her visit to Disneyland, Egbewole pointed to a specific moment that she said underscored her concern.

"I also don't need to see somebody in almost chaps when I'm looking at a toddler meeting Daisy and Donald for the first time," she said.

She also addressed criticism she expects from those who view such concerns as overly restrictive.

"And it's almost like if you say it out loud, people are like, ‘What is this, the Puritan movement … is this 'The Crucible?’" she said.

Egbewole rejected that framing and called for clearer distinctions between adult and child-centered environments.

"'Let women be women, let people be people.' No. No. We have to claw back these spaces," she said.

She referenced similar concerns raised about other public venues, including the Houston rodeo, describing what she sees as a broader trend.

"Adults are walking around, and they think it's a club, but this is really a fairground. It's a carnival for children," Egbewole said. "They're meeting animals… it's like 4-H."

Egbewole contrasted those settings with spaces she described as appropriate for unrestricted self-expression, pointing to her experience at a Beyoncé concert.

"There are adult spaces where you can wear what you like. I went to see Cowboy Carter … we all wore what we wanted. Do you understand the difference?" she said.

Egebewole also pushed back on the idea that individuals should be free to dress however they want in any environment.

"And I'm scrolling through TikTok… ‘Y'all just gotta let people live how they want.’ No, I don't," she said. "Not when we're bringing kids to see Mickey and Minnie."

"We as adults know the rules. And you know what? Children do too, because they notice, and it's uncomfortable," she said. "We maintain societal order by rejecting the inappropriateness of people who know better."

Fox News Digital reached out to Disney for additional comment, but did not immediately hear back.

Olena Zelenska warns abducted Ukranian kids may take ‘dozens of years’ to return, praises Melania Trump’s help

Ukraine is scrambling to recover thousands of children taken by Russia, and Ukrainian first lady Olena Zelenska is crediting Melania Trump for helping spotlight the effort.

"The community that has been created by the first lady, Melania Trump, is very important," Zelenska said in a special interview on "The Sunday Briefing."

"I'm very grateful to her for getting involved in this," she added later, her words translated from Ukrainian. "She deeply understands how important this subject is, and I am sure that her involvement is very helpful, because her advocacy attracts attention."

MELANIA TRUMP DECLARES 'THE MOMENT IS NOW' FOR NEW GLOBAL CHILDREN'S INITIATIVE AT UN

Zelenska said the effort to bring the children home depends on a growing coalition of countries working together to identify their whereabouts and pressure Russia to return them.

So far, about 2,000 children have been brought back to Ukraine, but she warned the current pace is far too slow.

"If we go as slow as this, it will take dozens of years to bring them all back," Zelenska said.

MELANIA TRUMP SAYS 7 MORE UKRAINIAN CHILDREN REUNITED WITH FAMILIES AS PART OF INITIATIVE WITH RUSSIA

"It's very important that as many countries as possible join us [in the effort to find them]."

Ukraine is reportedly still searching for roughly 20,000 children believed to have been "forcibly relocated" by Russia since the start of the war in 2022. The Trump administration boosted the effort last week with a fresh $25 million in funding.

Investigations have found that many of the children have been taken to a network of more than 200 facilities across Russia and occupied territories, where they are subjected to "re-education" programs, placed with Russian families and more.

Some sites have also been linked to military-style training for some children, according to research from Yale’s Humanitarian Research Lab.

Zelenska said efforts to locate the children are complicated by a lack of reliable information, accusing Russia of making it difficult to track their whereabouts.

MLB top prospect shares hilarious moment with veteran who robbed his home run after four-hit MLB debut

Detroit Tigers top prospect Kevin McGonigle seems pretty comfortable at the major league level, but one veteran doesn't want him too comfortable.

McGonigle made the Tigers' Opening Day roster, and he showed why he deserved it by notching four hits in his MLB debut.

McGonigle was back in action on Friday in San Diego against the Padres, and in the top of the second inning, he launched a ball to deep center field that traveled 403 feet. However, Jackson Merrill leaped and robbed McGonigle of his first home run.

In the bottom half of the inning, after Merrill doubled, McGonigle appeared to compliment Merrill on his catch, which Merrill thanked him for.

But that did not come before Merrill joked about McGonigle's big Opening Day.

"You got four yesterday!" Merrill said to the rookie.

McGonigle became the 21st player in MLB history to have four hits in his MLB debut and the first to do it since J.P. Arancibia in 2010.

Merrill's home run robbery provided a boost early on, but McGonigle got revenge with a game-winning two-run single in a four-run eighth inning for Detroit en route to a 5-2 victory.

The Tigers choked a double-digit AL Central lead last season but still managed to get to the American League Division Series after defeating the same team who overtook them in the standings in the Cleveland Guardians.

The Padres played more October baseball as a wild-card team as the Los Angeles Dodgers took another NL West title before repeating as World Series Champions.

Dean Cain defends joining ICE after leftists 'shrieked' to defund police

Former "Superman" actor Dean Cain has swapped capes for badges.

At this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), the 60-year-old former "Lois & Clark" star doubled down on his decision to join U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a move he made in August 2025.

"I'm Dean Cain, and some of you might be wondering why a former Superman actor is on stage at CPAC? Well, the answer is simple," he told the Texas crowd. "It’s because I believe in truth, justice and the American way."

As Cain was met with a roaring crowd, he outlined what "the American way" meant to him.

DEAN CAIN FIRES BACK AT ETHAN HAWKE'S CLAIM AMERICA IS NO LONGER A FREE COUNTRY FOR CELEBRITIES

"Number one, individual rights… Number two, equality of opportunity, not outcome. That means no DEI, no CRT. And yes, on merit – no matter your race, your religion, your social status, it doesn’t matter, you earn it."

Cain, who has been vocal about his conservative views for years, continued, "Number three, competition. The ability to compete fairly without the government getting in your way. No men in women’s sports."

'SUPERMAN' ACTOR DEAN CAIN BECOMES ICE AGENT TO SUPPORT 'VILIFIED' OFFICERS ENFORCING IMMIGRATION LAW

He then shifted gears from philosophy to action. He called out pushes to "defund the police" and "defund ICE."

"Now, the theme here today is action, not words. And right now, I’m giving you a bunch of words. So what about action? Well, when extremists on the left screamed 'defund the police,' I joined law enforcement. When the leftists shrieked, as they are shrieking now, 'defund ICE,' I joined ICE."

Cain didn’t hold back on his take on Hollywood either.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN DROPS ANTI-ICE SONG AFTER MINNEAPOLIS SHOOTINGS

"And when Hollywood said, ‘Oh my gosh, you’re a conservative, you’re canceled,’ I said, ‘You know what? We’re going to create a new platform called Proud American Studios, and I’m going to do a podcast called "The Homeland," and I’m going to celebrate the United States of America, the greatest nation the world has ever known.’"

The crowd erupted in applause and chants of "U-S-A."

"And we’re going to fight. We’re going to fight to keep it that way. So truth, justice and the American way, OK? God bless you all for being here."

Cain’s decision to join ICE wasn’t about politics — it was personal.

He’s been involved in law enforcement for nearly a decade, first as a deputy sheriff, then as a reserve police officer. But it was the criticism of ICE agents that pushed him to take further action.

"Our ICE agents, who are amazing men and women, are incredible. And they're black, and they are brown and green and yellow and Japanese and whatever. They're a cross-section of Americans," Cain previously told Fox News Digital. 

"They are doing their job, the job that Congress wrote the laws for them to support and uphold, and they're doing the job of deporting people who are here illegally."

He continued to explain his stance on illegal immigration.

"If you're a legal citizen here in this country, no worries, you're great, but if you're here illegally, you've broken the law to begin with."

He argued that ICE agents deserve respect for doing the job that many are too afraid to do.

"The fact that these men and women who are doing their jobs are getting vilified, I had to stand up with them and for them because I think it takes people standing up to change the culture."

Ted Danson admits he can be a ‘d---,’ says wife Mary Steenburgen compares him to a ‘junkyard dog’

Ted Danson admits he isn't always the nice guy he portrays himself as.

During a recent episode of his podcast, "Where Everybody Knows Your Name," the 78-year-old actor admitted to his guest, actor Don Cheadle, that he is a "d---."

"My go-to is nice guy. My go-to is wanting to be nurturing and loving and kind and all that stuff. It really is," he said. "But I'm a d---. I can be a mean a--hole, but I've only discovered that later in life because I was trained to be very sensitive."

Having always thought of himself as a nice guy, Danson was surprised when his wife of more than 30 years, actress Mary Steenburgen, challenged that self-image.

TED DANSON ADMITS FILMING LOVE SCENES WITH STRANGERS MAKES HIM FEEL ‘GUILTY’ AND ‘WRONG’

"She said, 'You are as mean as a junkyard dog,' and it was the first time I'd heard that phrase. And I thought it was so silly to be said about me," he said. "I luckily have grown and developed with my relationship with Mary to realize, 'Oh yeah, I do have that,' which is a wonderful thing to know that you are both."

The actor became a household name when he landed the role of Sam Malone on the hit sitcom "Cheers," which won him two Emmy Awards and multiple Golden Globe Awards.

After his run on the show, Danson starred in many successful films, later introducing himself to a younger audience in "The Good Place," in which he played a demon who developed a conscience and turned good. He is currently starring as a spy in the Netflix series "Man on the Inside."

Steenburgen joined the Season 2 cast of the Netflix show as Danson's character's love interest. Steenburgen told People in November 2025 when she found out she had landed the role, "there was a lot of screaming and jumping up and down ... because we were so excited to work together."

"We’re both actors," Danson told the outlet. "We were trained the same way. We had some really good material to work with. We'd get up every morning giggling about what we get to do."

The couple met in 1993 while on set of the movie "Pontiac Moon" and quickly became one of Hollywood's most-loved couples. They got married in October 1995 in a ceremony on Martha's Vineyard.

When speaking about their relationship to People in February 2021, Danson explained he knew he had to propose to her because he "couldn't imagine not being with her at all times."

"Not to sound corny, but I would sign up for 100 more lifetimes," Steenburgen told the outlet. "He makes me a better person. He's a truly beautiful human being. A great big soul. I love how he sees the world and how he cares about people, and he's deeply hilarious, which is super, super sexy to me, and he smells really nice."

In addition to starring together in "Pontiac Moon" and "Man on the Inside," the couple has appeared together in "Gulliver's Travels," "Ink," "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and other projects.

San Francisco restores 8th-grade algebra after equity experiment backfires

San Francisco is restoring eighth-grade algebra after more than a decade, with the San Francisco Board of Education voting 4-3 Tuesday night to approve the change, reversing a controversial policy that had eliminated the course in middle schools in the name of equity.

The vote follows years of debate over academic rigor, access and declining outcomes, as families increasingly pushed the district to expand advanced coursework options.

"Families want to see a public school system that offers rigorous coursework. This is absolutely an instructional strategy," school board President Phil Kim said, according to The New York Times. "But it’s also a retention tool to bring families to our district and demonstrate we will not only take care of your children, but we will teach them, too."

The original policy, implemented roughly 12 years ago, was designed to give students more time to master foundational math before advancing. However, the results fell short of expectations, the Times reported.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION UNDER TRUMP JUST TOOK ITS 'LARGEST' STEP CLOSER TO SHUTTING DOWN

"For years, San Francisco tried to achieve equity not by raising the floor, but by lowering the ceiling," Stanford economist Thomas S. Dee told the Times. "It's a problem we see nationally."

Under the new plan, algebra will return as an option for all eighth graders across the district, with multiple pathways designed to expand access while maintaining academic readiness.

District officials plan to offer algebra as an elective taken alongside standard math coursework, while some students who meet eligibility requirements may take it as their primary math class.

95% OF FACULTY SAY AI MAKING STUDENTS DANGEROUSLY DEPENDENT ON TECHNOLOGY FOR LEARNING: SURVEY

High-achieving students will be automatically placed into algebra but will have the ability to opt out, a policy designed to increase participation among underrepresented groups.

The changes build on a two-year district experiment that tested different approaches to middle-school math, including allowing students to take Algebra I concurrently with Math 8.

Students who enrolled in both courses saw "dramatic gains" in math performance, "equivalent to nearly a full extra year of learning," Dee said.

The policy shift also follows broader public backlash, including a 2024 ballot initiative in which San Francisco voters overwhelmingly supported restoring algebra to middle schools.

DR. NICOLE SAPHIER: HOW BEST TO USE TECHNOLOGY IN OUR CHILDREN'S CLASSROOMS

The issue became a focal point in wider debates over pandemic-era school closures and education policy, as many parents sought outside options to keep their children on track academically.

"We’re the center of technological innovation in the United States, and we can’t teach our kids math?" GrowSF founder Steven Bacio told the Times. "It upended existing political alliances and got tens of thousands of people paying attention."

The San Francisco Board of Education did not respond to Fox News Digital for comment.

"Nobody knows who to talk to," President Donald Trump said Tuesday at the White House, describing what he portrayed as both chaos ...

Who actually runs Iran right now? The key power players as Trump claims talks to 'top' official

"Nobody knows who to talk to," President Donald Trump said Tuesday at the White House, describing what he portrayed as both chaos and opportunity inside Iran’s leadership. "But we're actually talking to the right people, and they want to make a deal so badly." 

His remarks come as the U.S. claims it is engaged in talks with a "top" Iranian figure, even as Tehran publicly denies negotiations are taking place.

The question now is not just whether talks are happening, but whether anyone in Tehran has the authority to deliver. With U.S.-Israel strikes on senior Iranian leadership and growing internal fractures, Iran appears to be operating less like a centralized theocracy and more like a wartime system run by overlapping power centers, with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) at its core.

Here’s who matters now.

TRUMP’S MIDDLE EAST ENVOY REVEALS WHAT LED TO BREAKDOWN IN IRAN TALKS BEFORE OPERATION EPIC FURY

Across intelligence assessments and recent reporting, one conclusion is consistent: the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has emerged as the dominant force in Iran’s political system.

Behnam Ben Taleblu, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies Washington, D.C., think tank, said the current moment is accelerating a long-standing trend. 

"No doubt both the 12-Day war and this current conflict have trimmed the commanding heights of the Islamic Republic's political and military leadership," he said.  "But it has also expedited the trend lines inherent in Iranian politics, which is the dominance of the security forces and the ascendance of the IRGC."

"Yes, there is more IRGC control over the state than ever before, but the state is weaker than ever before and more of a national security rump state than ever before," he said. 

"It shouldn't particularly preoccupy Washington, who is and isn't offering negotiations," Ben Taleblu added. "The preeminent preoccupation of Washington has to be working toward a military win at a political win, and that does not come by working with the IRGC, but actually beating them on the battlefield and supporting the forces most arrayed against them in Iran, which are the Iranian people."

If the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is the power in Iran, the Supreme National Security Council appears to be the mechanism through which that power is exercised.

The Supreme National Security Council is Iran’s top forum for coordinating military and foreign policy, bringing together senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commanders and government officials under the authority of the supreme leader. It was established after the 1979 revolution and has played a central role in managing major crises, from nuclear negotiations to wartime operations.

Iran appointed Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, a former Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander, as secretary of the council, reinforcing its central role in coordinating military and political decisions, Reuters reported Tuesday.

A Middle Eastern official source with knowledge of the system described the structure. 

"Right now, the power is in the hands of the IRGC," the source said. "The Supreme National Security Council makes the decisions, of course, with the backing of the majority of IRGC commanders."

Formally, Iran’s system centers on Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei. But his actual grip on power remains uncertain.

Khamenei inherited the position’s sweeping authority following his father’s death, but "lacks the automatic authority enjoyed by his father," the Middle Eastern official said.

Moreover, he has not appeared publicly since taking power and only has issued written statements, raising questions about both his health and his ability to govern, after reportedly being injured in the initial Feb. 28 U.S.–Israeli strikes that killed his father and other senior Iranian leaders.

Brig. Gen. (res.) Yossi Kuperwasser, head of the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security, suggested his role may currently be limited: "For the time being, since Mojtaba has been injured, it seems he's a hologram and not holding power. However, if Mojtaba recovers, he will be involved in ruling Iran. He is not just a figurehead. But anyhow, for the time being, the control of Iran is in the hands of the revolutionary guards."

WITH DOGS, DANCE AND UNCOVERED HAIR, IRANIANS DEFY 'UNHOLY ALLIANCE' OF SOCIALISTS, RADICALS: ‘HYPOCRITES!’

Trump’s statement that he is speaking to a "top person" has focused attention on one name in particular: Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf.

The White House is quietly exploring Ghalibaf as a potential interlocutor and even a possible future leader, Axios reported.

A former Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander and current parliament speaker, Ghalibaf represents a hybrid figure inside the system, bridging military credentials and political authority.

He was one of the key security figures involved in the crackdown on student protests in July 1999 and has run for president four times since 2005.

IRAN WAR, 11 DAYS IN: US CONTROLS SKIES, OIL SURGES AND THE REGION BRACES FOR WHAT’S NEXT

Ghalibaf is expected to meet U.S. special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in the capital of Pakistan as early as the end of the week. 

Ben Taleblu said: "Those who see the ascendants of someone like Ghalibaf, who is an IRGC veteran, having extended power outside his traditional civilian rule, have missed the decades of how personality, not profession, has been the driving force in Iranian politics for the past few decades. I would also say those who worry about the IRGC background of the Supreme National Security Council are all that in Iran today, may have missed the fact that the past few Supreme National Security Council Secretaries, Shamkhani, Larijani, Ahmadian, all also had IRGC backgrounds."

At the same time, Ghalibaf has publicly denied engaging in talks with the United States, and no direct confirmation of negotiations has been provided by either side.

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi remains one of the most visible figures internationally.

If talks were to take place, Araghchi likely would be part of the Iranian delegation alongside Ghalibaf, Reuters reported.

But analysts caution that his role is limited. He may act as a channel for communication, but does not set policy independently. 

Strategic decisions, particularly on war and negotiations, are still shaped by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the broader security establishment.

Beyond the headline figures, a broader group of officials who continue to shape Iran’s direction can be identified.

These include Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps chief Ahmad Vahidi, Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani, naval commander Alireza Tangsiri, Judiciary Chief Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei, President Masoud Pezeshkian and senior clerical and political figures such as Saeed Jalili and Ayatollah Alireza Arafi.

Each represents a different pillar of the system: military power, regional proxy operations, control of strategic waterways, internal repression and religious legitimacy.

Together, they form what analysts describe as a fragmented but resilient governing network.

Despite internal divisions, Iran’s leadership remains united on one core objective: survival of the regime.

Kuperwasser described the split: "There are the more pragmatic elites, like Araghchi, Rouhani, and Zarif. There are also the hardliners who have usually held the upper hand … But they are united in one issue — that the regime should survive and stay in power."

Iran’s U.N. mission did not respond to a request for comment in time for publication.
