By Stephen Sorace  | Fox News Anti-Israel protesters with "Free Palestine" signs and banners descended on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City on Thursday, with police removing those who attempted to block the parade route.

Photos show NYPD officers breaking up the demonstration and detaining multiple protesters so that the parade could continue unobstructed. Some protesters were seen walking away while others who refused to move were pulled away or taken down to the ground and handcuffed. READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS...

By  Hanna Panreck | Fox News Democratic Denver Mayor Mike Johnston recently said he was prepared to go to jail over his opposition to the Trump administration's border policies.

But, look, me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing. He’s willing to go to jail, I’m willing to put him in jail."

President-elect Trump announces Pam Bondi as his new pick for U.S. attorney general

By Greg Wehner  | Fox News President-elect Trump announced Thursday evening that he's nominating former attorney general of Florida Pam Bondi as the next attorney general of the United States.

"Then, as Florida’s first female Attorney General, she worked to stop the trafficking of deadly drugs, and reduce the...

Jussie Smollett conviction overturned by Illinois Supreme Court

By Lauryn Overhultz  | Fox News The Illinois Supreme Court overturned Jussie Smollett's hate crime hoax conviction Thursday. "Today we resolve a question about the State’s responsibility to honor the agreements it makes with defendants," the court wrote in documents obtained by Fox News Digital. "Specifically, we address whether a dismissal of a case by nolle prosequi allows the State to bring a second prosecution when the dismissal was entered as part of an agreement with the defendant and the defendant has performed his part of the bargain. We hold that a second prosecution under these circumstances is a due process violation, and we therefore reverse defendant’s conviction." Smollett, who is Black and gay, reported to Chicago police that he was the victim of a ra...
