NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
FIRST ON FOX: A Mexican national who illegally voted in U.S. elections and falsely claimed to be a citizen has been convicted and could face removal under federal immigration law.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed to Fox News Digital that Jose Ceballos-Armendariz, a lawful permanent resident who has held a green card since 1990, pleaded guilty to three counts of Disorderly Election Conduct following prosecution by the Kansas Attorney General’s Office.
Officials said Ceballos-Armendariz unlawfully voted multiple times and falsely claimed U.S. citizenship on voter registration forms, including a 1999 application in which he affirmed he was a citizen of the United States.
He later applied for U.S. citizenship in February 2025. DHS said he falsely stated on that application that he had never claimed to be a U.S. citizen.

Under federal immigration law, false claims to U.S. citizenship can make a noncitizen removable, though DHS has not detailed any potential action in this case.
«This alien has now been convicted of illegally voting in American elections, voting in American elections,» DHS acting assistant secretary Lauren Bis said. «The SAVE program is a critical tool for state and local governments to safeguard the integrity of elections across the country.»
Records provided by DHS and reviewed by Fox News Digital show Ceballos-Armendariz checked «yes» when asked if he was a U.S. citizen on a Kansas voter registration form and signed to affirm the information was true.

On his naturalization application, however, he marked «no» when asked whether he had ever claimed to be a U.S. citizen, despite his prior voter registration.
DHS said Ceballos-Armendariz also has a prior criminal conviction, having been found guilty of battery in 1995.
President Donald Trump has made election integrity a central focus of his administration, with officials pointing to enforcement actions like this case as part of broader efforts to prevent noncitizens from participating in U.S. elections.
Existing federal law — 18 U.S.C. § 611: «Voting by aliens» under the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA) of 1996 — prohibits noncitizens, including lawful permanent residents, from voting in elections for all federal offices.

«Nothing is more fundamental than the integrity and security of our elections,» Bis said. «That’s why the Trump Administration has repeatedly called on Congress to pass the SAVE America Act — commonsense legislation that requires voters to present photo ID and implements other critical measures to protect federal elections from fraud.
«Our elections belong to American citizens, not foreign citizens.»

Despite the IIRIRA, since April 2025, more than 24,000 potential non-U.S. citizens have been identified on voter rolls through the SAVE program and referred to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for further investigation, according to DHS.
Officials said more than 60 million voter verification queries have been processed during that time.
Federal officials say the system allows states to verify citizenship status and prevent unlawful voting, and they continue to urge broader adoption nationwide.

Por qué Donald Trump no apareció en ningún partido del Mundial 2026: temor a los abucheos, cánticos sexuales y dudas de su presencia en la final

When it comes to the U.S. food supply, more voters prioritize protecting public health than lowering food prices, according to the latest Fox News Poll.
The survey, released Monday, also finds broad voter support for key elements of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, even as they give Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. negative job ratings.
By a 16-point margin, voters prefer safeguarding public health (58%) more than lowering food prices (42%).
FOX NEWS POLL: MOVE OVER BIG BROTHER, VOTERS SEE BIG TECH AS GREATER THREAT TO US
That view crosses party lines, with majorities of Democrats (57%), Republicans (58%), and independents (62%) prioritizing health and well-being.
MAHA was popularized by Kennedy during his 2024 presidential campaign and evolved into a national health-policy movement after he ended his bid and endorsed President Trump. Some of its goals include improving nutrition, eliminating harmful additives, and enhancing children’s health.
Roughly 9 in 10 voters say it is extremely or very important for the government to focus on improving food safety (89% important), lowering food costs (88%), and expanding access to healthy foods (85%). About 8 in 10 consider limiting harmful additives (83% important) and increasing transparency in food labeling (81%) important. About 6 in 10 place the same emphasis on reducing vaping and nicotine use (63% important) or limiting screen time for children under age 16 (60%).
FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS DOUBT NEW AGREEMENT WILL STOP IRAN FROM DEVELOPING NUKES
Support for new food regulations is prevalent. More than 9 in 10 voters favor requiring clearer food labeling (91%), and almost as many (87%) support banning food additives that other countries have restricted because of health concerns.
Smaller majorities support banning flavored nicotine products, including vapes and nicotine pouches (65% favor) and prohibiting children under 16 from using social media platforms (60%).
Eliminating vaccine requirements is less popular, as fewer than 4 in 10 are in favor (36%) – although that number is up 10 points since December.
Most policies enjoy widespread support across key demographics, except on vaccines where differences emerge.
More Republicans (45%) than Democrats (25%) favor eliminating vaccine requirements in public schools by a 20-point margin (the only proposal where fewer than half of each group favor it), and more MAGA (53%) than non-MAGA Republicans (32%) support eliminating vaccines by 21 points.
Men, Black voters, and voters under age 30 are more likely to favor eliminating vaccine requirements than women, White voters, and voters 65 and up.
«If I were advising Republicans in state and local races in 2026, I would tell them to embrace key policy elements from the MAHA agenda,» says Republican pollster Daron Shaw who helps conduct the Fox News Poll alongside Democratic counterpart Chris Anderson. «Protecting Americans, especially children, from bad food, bad drugs, and bad apps is extremely popular, particularly with groups Republicans have struggled with lately.»

Despite support for many MAHA priorities, Kennedy’s job rating remains underwater: 45% approve of his performance, while 54% disapprove. Those numbers are largely unchanged since last September.
About 9 in 10 MAGA Republicans (88%) approve of Kennedy, compared to 6 in 10 non-MAGA Republicans (58%).
Fathers (54% approve) and voters under 30 (51%) also boost Kennedy’s ratings, with more than half approving of his job performance, higher than mothers (43% approve), non-parents (44%), and voters 65 and over (39%).
A closer look at parents
Mothers and fathers differ in food-policy priorities. More moms prioritize keeping food costs low by 2 points, while dads favor protecting public health by 16 points.
Although parents and non-parents generally align on many MAHA-related issues, more dads than moms say it is important for the government to reduce screen time for children under 16 (68% vs. 47% important) and support banning children from social media platforms (67% vs. 59% favor).
Dads are also more likely than moms to favor eliminating vaccine requirements (52% vs. 33% favor), and more parents support eliminating them than non-parents (42% vs. 34% favor).
The generational divide
Voters under age 30 favor prioritizing public health more than lower food costs by 8 points, but that gap widens to 44 points among voters 65 and over.
On screen time, voters under 30 support banning children under 16 from social media by just 2 points, while that margin expands to 24 points among voters 65 and over.
When it comes to vaccines, young voters oppose eliminating them by 10 points, compared to a large 57-point opposition among those 65 and up.
Conducted June 12-15, 2026, under the direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News survey includes interviews with a sample of 1,002 registered voters randomly selected from a national voter file. Respondents spoke with live interviewers on landlines (101) and cellphones (644) or completed the survey online after receiving a text (257). Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ±3 percentage points. Sampling error for results among subgroups is higher. In addition to sampling error, question wording and order can influence results. Weights are generally applied to age, race, education, and area variables to ensure the demographics are representative of the registered voter population. Sources for developing weight targets include the most recent American Community Survey, Fox News Voter Analysis, and voter file data.

Israel reafirmó mantendrá sus operaciones y la denominada “zona de seguridad” en el sur de Líbano pese a las exigencias de Irán
El primer ministro de Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, el ministro de Defensa, Israel Katz, y el jefe del Estado Mayor, Eyal Zamir, reafirmaron este lunes que las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel (FDI) mantendrán sus operaciones y la denominada “zona de seguridad” en el sur de Líbano, pese a las exigencias de Irán para que cesen estas acciones en el marco de sus conversaciones con Estados Unidos.
“Las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel (FDI) continuarán actuando con determinación para neutralizar las amenazas contra nuestros soldados y ciudadanos, desmantelar la infraestructura terrorista y mantener la zona de seguridad en el sur de Líbano”, señalaron Netanyahu, Katz y Zamir en una declaración conjunta difundida por la oficina del primer ministro.
El pronunciamiento llegó tras una reunión en la que también participó el comandante del Mando Norte, Rafi Milo. Según el comunicado, los responsables israelíes “han aclarado que la seguridad de los ciudadanos israelíes y de las fuerzas de las FDI seguirá siendo su principio rector, sin concesiones”.
Las autoridades israelíes reiteraron así su negativa a abandonar la franja que sus tropas ocupan en territorio libanés, una posición que justifican por motivos de seguridad para las comunidades del norte de Israel.
Las FDI continúan sus operaciones en esa zona con ataques dirigidos contra el grupo terrorisra Hezbollah. Según las autoridades libanesas, los enfrentamientos entre Israel y Hezbolá desde el 2 de marzo dejan más de 4.000 muertos y 12.000 heridos.
La continuidad de estas operaciones constituye uno de los principales puntos de fricción en las negociaciones entre Irán y Estados Unidos sobre un acuerdo para la paz en Medio Oriente. Teherán reclama el cese total de las acciones militares israelíes en el sur de Líbano.
Sin embargo, funcionarios israelíes insistieron en los últimos días en que no contemplan abandonar el territorio ocupado. El ministro de Exteriores, Gideon Saar, sostuvo el lunes que el Gobierno israelí no tiene “ambiciones territoriales” en Líbano, un día después de que Netanyahu comparara esa zona con otros territorios bajo control militar israelí en la Franja de Gaza y en Siria.
En un discurso televisado, el líder de Hezbollah, Naim Qassem, sostuvo que la permanencia de soldados israelíes en territorio libanés es inaceptable. “La permanencia de tropas israelíes en suelo libanés es imposible”, afirmó.
Qassem cuestionó además el concepto de una “zona de seguridad” controlada por Israel y defendió el papel de las Fuerzas Armadas libanesas como responsables exclusivas de la soberanía nacional. «No existen zonas de seguridad para Israel”, señaló.
El líder de Hezbollah también responsabilizó a Estados Unidos por la situación actual y aseguró que Israel deberá retirarse. “Israel es un agresor y debe marcharse”, dijo. Más adelante agregó: “Israel no permanecerá en el Líbano, incluso si aumenta sus crímenes, y nosotros nos defenderemos”.
Aunque los enfrentamientos en territorio libanés se han reducido desde el fin de semana, las tensiones continúan. Qassem advirtió que su organización respetará cualquier alto el fuego acordado dentro del marco de un cese integral de las hostilidades, pero dejó abierta la posibilidad de responder ante cualquier incumplimiento. “Nos enfrentaremos a cualquier violación”, afirmó.
Las diferencias sobre el futuro del sur del Líbano, la influencia regional de Irán y las garantías de seguridad para Israel aparecen así como algunos de los principales desafíos que deberán resolverse durante las negociaciones en marcha. Mientras Washington y Teherán intentan avanzar hacia un acuerdo más amplio, las declaraciones cruzadas de Netanyahu y Hezbollah reflejan que varios de los temas más sensibles del conflicto siguen lejos de encontrar una solución definitiva.
