Sky York Journal Miranda Kerr graced the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show stage for the first time in 2006 and became the first Australian to sign as an Angel the following year.Six years later, she stepped back from the VS runway to focus on her son Flynn with ex-husband Orlando Bloom and pursue other career opportunities.”This is a natural evolution,” she told The Sunday Morning Herald at the time. “‘The thing is, I’ve been modeling since I was 13. I’m now entering a new phase in my life. I have felt this coming since my son was born and, after I became…

Sky York Journal To hear him tell it, Gavin McInnes’ recent return to the site formerly known as Twitter is the result of a collaborative effort that included leading members of the British far right and Elon Musk. “I’m kind of cringing at how happy I am about it,” McInnes told TPM late last month. McInnes was originally suspended from Twitter in 2018 amid concerns about the activities of the group he founded, the Proud Boys, and other violent right-wing extremist organizations. The ban came after the Proud Boys, with their staunch support for President Trump and their trademark yellow…

She desperately wanted to get out of the country. It was mid-May and Pérez, a Venezuelan mother of two, couldn’t survive on her own in Chicago anymore. She’d been relying on charity for food and shelter ever since her partner had been detained by immigration authorities after a traffic stop earlier in the year. Pérez, 25, thought it’d be safer to return to Venezuela with her children than to stay…

FOX 24 US District judges, including those appointed by President Trump, have been remarkably scrupulous despite overwhelming pressure to accept the administration’s claims that various blue cities are war-torn, burning, deadly.  Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, blocked the deployment of the National Guard to Portland, writing that the administration’s assessment of the unrest in the city was “simply untethered to the facts.” “As of September 27, 2025, it had been months since there was any sustained level of violent or disruptive protest activity in Portland,” she wrote.  In reward for her refusal to buy the administration’s apocalyptic fantasies, White…

FOX 24 US 9th Circuit Judge Ryan Nelson argued so vehemently Thursday that President Trump has the power to deploy the National Guard into unwilling states on very little pretext that one suspects the arguments were doubling as his Supreme Court audition.  “The President gets to direct his resources as he deems fit and it just seems a little counterintuitive to me that the city of Portland can come in and say ‘no, you need to do it differently,’” Nelson said to Oregon’s Senior Assistant Attorney General Stacy Chaffin. “Now, I understand there’s a statute here and we’re going to…

FOX 24 US Elected officials, activists, and at least one former high-ranking Department of Homeland Security official have all noticed the same thing: when the Trump administration wants to turn up the heat, they send in Gregory Bovino.  Over the past year, Bovino, now a Customs and Border Patrol commander-at-large, has rocketed from an obscure posting in the California desert to the center of the Trump administration’s most aggressive and highest-profile enforcement actions. He has overseen many of the recent, large-scale federal deportation operations in big, blue-leaning cities — crackdowns that quickly (and, many suspect, by design) suck U.S. citizens,…

FOX 24 US The scale and scope of federal data and statistics that have been completely removed or otherwise compromised by President Donald Trump’s administration is too overwhelming to chronicle fully. When the president’s executive orders banning diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives came down in January and February, the federal agencies now under his authority scrambled to comply. Per tallies at the time, around 8,000 webpages and approximately 3,000 datasets were taken down or modified. Some went back up, but not without changes that subject matter experts are still working to quantify nearly nine months later. “We know that in…

Education Secretary Linda McMahon has been clear about her desire to shut down the agency she runs. She’s laid off half the staff and joked about padlocking the door. She calls it “the final mission.” But the department is not behaving like an agency that is simply winding down. Even as McMahon has shrunk the Department of Education, she’s operated in what she calls “a parallel universe” to radically shift how children will learn…

FOX 24 US Rep. Mike Bost (R-IL), who voted in 2020 to overturn the presidential election results, leads a case the Supreme Court heard Wednesday in which he and a couple of Republican electors challenge Illinois’ ballot-counting grace period. The arguments centered on whether Bost had standing to bring the lawsuit, which challenges Illinois’ policy of counting ballots that are postmarked before, but arrive after, Election Day. If the Court decides he does, which the right-wing majority seemed positioned to do Wednesday, it’ll lower the bar for candidate challenges to election laws.  Along the way, the justices and attorneys were…
