A Democratic Senate hopeful in Michigan reportedly deleted thousands of social media posts, including one disparaging the middle-American communities she is asking voters to elect her to represent.
Mallory McMorrow, who indicates in her 2025 autobiography that she «relocated permanently» from the Los Angeles-area to Michigan in 2014, shared in the deleted posts about dreaming that the elite coasts would annex themselves from middle America. In the now-archived posts, McMorrow also mused about how she wished she «never left California» and said there were days since moving to Michigan «that make me miss California even more.»
Meanwhile, McMorrow described herself in 2016, after she claimed to have relocated to Michigan, as a constituent of Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu, repeatedly referenced voting in California’s June 2016 Democratic Primary and urged other voters to do the same. McMorrow referenced voting in person in November 2014 in the Los Angeles area as well, even though in 2024 she chided someone on social media who said they voted in a state they no longer lived in.
In total, McMorrow deleted roughly 6,000 social media posts, according to CNN’s K-File investigative unit, which reported that the posts appeared to have been deleted in 2025 following New York Post reporting on several of McMorrow’s social media comments, including the one about dreaming that fly-over country would annex itself from the coasts.

In addition to appearing to bash the part of the country she seeks to represent, McMorrow’s deleted tweets covered a variety of other topics, including Trump, whose governing style she compared to Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler, according to a review of the now-archived posts.
A spokesperson for McMorrow’s campaign, Hannah Lindow, suggested the social media posts exposed in K-File’s Wednesday report were light-hearted and often jokes. One post included McMorrow complaining about the cold Michigan weather, while another quipped that she was «pushing for a future without cars» in response to a thread about Uber drivers.
«These are normal tweets by a normal person,» Lindow told Fox News Digital. «Normal people complain about the weather. The Michigan sky does in fact sometimes ‘s— ice.’ She stands by that.»
Meanwhile, Lindow pointed to a Democratic strategist who argued «every adult decision Mallory has made» says that she loves Michigan.

«As Michigan’s Senate Majority Whip, Mallory has spent the past eight years fighting and delivering to make people’s lives better: higher wages, universal pre-K, no kid going hungry in schools, comprehensive gun violence prevention laws, and more,» Lindow said. «And she’s tweeted about that too.»

The CNN reporting ignited backlash against McMorrow from conservatives online and Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., who is also running for the Michigan Senate seat. In response to McMorrow’s now-deleted social media posts, she posted a long X thread explaining why she is proud to be a native Michigander, taking a few thinly-veiled shots at McMorrow.
«I’m a born and raised Michigander and damn proud of it. I love everything that makes us Michiganders, from our manufacturing heritage to our lakes and yep, even our accent. That’s why I have pretty thick skin about people making fun of the way I talk or the clothes I wear—because this campaign isn’t about me,» Stevens said.
«It’s about the amazing people who live in this state. About them having a real champion in the Senate. So what actually ticks me off,» she continued. «Someone who wants that job— representing Michiganders—talking crap about us and our state.»
In a social media post appearing to reference the deleted social media posts, McMorrow’s Democratic primary candidate for U.S. Senate, Abdul El-Sayed, posted a photo of himself pointing to someone off-screen and laughing. The post also included the following caption: «Born in Michigan, hallelujah. Raised in Michigan, hallelujah. Believe cars should exist, hallelujah.»
«The death of a campaign, brought to you by, the campaign,» Chris Gustafson, the Senate Leadership Fund and One Nation spokesperson, posted on X.
«How can McMorrow represent the people that she hates?» the research arm of the Republican National Committee posted on X.
«One of my greatest fears for my home state is the Travese-City-ification of the great Up North,» Parker Thayer, an investigative researcher at the Capital Research Center, posted on X. «Costal libs like Buttigieg and McMorrow have realized how beautiful it is here, and they’ve decided they can tolerate out «backwards» midwestern ways if they balkanize the state.»
«As I’ve told you the ‘elites’ hate your guts if you are culturally in the space between West of the George Washington Bridge and East of the Golden Gate Bridge,» Conservative radio host Andrew Wilkow posted on X
Fox News Digital clarified that McMorrow and her husband made the decision to move from California to Michigan in 2014, but did not vacate their California apartment until 2016. Public records also show McMorrow registered to vote in Michigan in August 2016. In California, the law prohibits non-residents from voting in its elections.
«I had a dream that the U.S. amicably broke off into The Ring (coasts + Can + Mex + parts Mich/Tex) and Middle America,» one of her now-deleted posts from December 2016 stated, according to archived versions reviewed by Fox News Digital. «Oh and The Ring nominated Obama as Prime Minister and everyone was given $1,000 and six months to pick a side.»

In another Jan. 2017 post, after she was already permanently living in Michigan, McMorrow responded to a social media user that there are days she has in her new home «that make me miss California even more,» according to an archived version reviewed by Fox News Digital.
«California should have its own diplomats» to «make sure we don’t get nuked because of morons from the other side of the country,» the user said, before McMorrow responded: «There are days like these that make me miss California even more.»
In another one of the now-deleted tweets, from November 2016, McMorrow wrote: «I wish I never left California,» in response to another user’s comments about diversity in Detroit.

McMorrow, besides appearing to bash the part of the country she seeks to represent, also deleted other tweets on a variety of topics that could potentially pose a liability for her candidacy.
For example, some of the deleted posts from McMorrow included comparisons between the United States under Donald Trump’s leadership and Nazi Germany.
«Dr. Seuss, 1941. We’ve been here before, America. #AmericaFirst #NoMuslimBan,» McMorrow posted shortly after Trump began his first term in 2017, alongside a Dr. Seuss cartoon referring to Nazi Germany. In a separate post a few months later, McMorrow responded to someone lamenting they had no faith that the minds of Trump supporters could be changed.

«Agreed. But how do we fight back? Hitler had supporters. Stalin had supporters. Putin has supporters. No one will change their minds,» McMorrow replied, according to archived versions of the post.
In an Oct. 2020 post, McMorrow also pleaded with her followers to watch a video «that a dear friend created,» which featured a Holocaust survivor drawing parallels between Nazi Germany and Trump’s «authoritarian aspirations.»
The posts from McMorrow, exposed by K-File and the New York Post, stand in stark contrast to remarks on her campaign’s website that indicate «choosing to put roots down» in Michigan «is the best decision I’ve ever made.»

Gabbard says declassified biolab records validate concerns previously dismissed as misinformation

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released a trove of declassified records detailing U.S. funding of more than 120 biological laboratories across more than 30 countries, arguing the documents validate concerns that were previously dismissed as misinformation.
The release comes years after Gabbard drew criticism for raising concerns about U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine following Russia’s 2022 invasion. Critics accused her of echoing Russian narratives, while supporters argued legitimate questions about the labs’ activities and oversight were being unfairly dismissed.
The newly released records include ODNI briefing slides detailing the scope of U.S. involvement in Ukraine’s laboratory network.
DNI TULSI GABBARD PROBES U.S. FUNDING TO MORE THAN 120 BIOLABS AROUND THE WORLD
A bio safety lab where SARS-CoV-2 infectious samples are inactivated is shown at the Penn Center for Research on Coronavirus and Other Emerging Pathogens at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine in Philadelphia, Pa., on Dec. 16, 2021.
One document states that more than 40 laboratories in Ukraine received U.S. funding and housed collections of dangerous bacteria and viruses, some dating back to the Soviet era. The records also show Ukrainian scientists received U.S.-funded training to work with hazardous pathogens and participated in a program focused on handling especially dangerous diseases.
The documents list pathogens studied or stored within the laboratory network, including anthrax, tuberculosis, plague, Ebola virus, Marburg virus, MERS and SARS.
Additional records detail U.S.-funded construction and upgrades at laboratories across Ukraine, including facilities in Kherson, Odesa and western Ukraine. The documents identify engineering firm Black & Veatch as a major contractor and show U.S. taxpayers spent between roughly $1.7 million and $3.5 million on individual laboratory projects.
LAWMAKERS DEMAND ANSWERS AFTER SUSPECTED BIOLAB DISCOVERED IN CHINESE NATIONAL’S LAS VEGAS HOME

One declassified assessment focuses on a veterinary research laboratory in Kharkiv that received Pentagon funding through the Defense Department’s Biological Threat Reduction Program.
According to the assessment, the facility housed hundreds of samples of dangerous pathogens, including Brucella bacteria, which can cause a disease known as brucellosis. The document warned the lab could become a target of Russian propaganda efforts or be damaged, captured or otherwise compromised during the war.
Another ODNI slide outlines what it describes as a «web of connections» linking Ukrainian laboratories with U.S. government agencies, universities, research organizations and private contractors. The document says U.S. funding supported research on bird flu and other highly infectious viruses in high-security laboratories.

Gabbard said the documents demonstrate that the public was not given a full picture of U.S.-backed biological research programs overseas. Critics, however, maintain the facilities were part of long-running public health and threat-reduction efforts designed to secure dangerous pathogens and prevent biological proliferation rather than operate as biological weapons programs.
The declassification is likely to reignite debate over government transparency, gain-of-function research and the scope of U.S.-funded biological research overseas.

Honduras refuerza controles sanitarios para impulsar exportaciones de camarón

Honduras reforzó la vigilancia sanitaria sobre su industria camaronera, uno de sus sectores exportadores, mientras las ventas al exterior llegaron a 29 millones de libras hasta mayo y generaron USD 113 millones, según datos citados por las autoridades .
El Servicio Nacional de Sanidad e Inocuidad Agroalimentaria (Senasa), dependencia adscrita a la Secretaría de Agricultura y Ganadería (SAG), confirmo que desarrollan una estrategia para proteger la producción acuícola hondureña frente a riesgos sanitarios y sostener la competitividad del sector.
Las acciones incluyen monitoreos permanentes en las zonas de producción, controles preventivos, inspecciones técnicas y coordinación con productores y empresas exportadoras para mantener los estándares exigidos por los mercados internacionales.
El director general de SAG-Senasa, Rafael Rodríguez, dijo que el fortalecimiento de los sistemas de vigilancia sanitaria se convirtió en una prioridad para la institución, en un contexto en el que los países compradores exigen mayores niveles de trazabilidad, inocuidad y control de calidad en los productos alimenticios.
Según explicó el funcionario, el trabajo desarrollado junto al sector productor permitió consolidar un modelo de vigilancia permanente que facilita la detección temprana de amenazas sanitarias y el cumplimiento de protocolos nacionales e internacionales.
La industria camaronera representa una de las actividades productivas de Honduras y una fuente de empleo, inversión y generación de divisas.
Durante los últimos años, el sector posicionó al camarón hondureño en mercados internacionales por sus estándares de calidad, sus procesos de producción y el cumplimiento de las normativas sanitarias requeridas por los países importadores.

Actualmente, Honduras exporta camarón a mercados de Europa, Norteamérica, Centroamérica y Asia, regiones que demandan controles sanitarios y niveles de inocuidad alimentaria.
Las autoridades sostienen que mantener la confianza de estos mercados es clave para asegurar la estabilidad y el crecimiento de la industria acuícola nacional.
De acuerdo con datos proporcionados por el director ejecutivo de la Asociación Nacional de Acuicultores de Honduras (Andah), Javier Amador, al cierre de mayo las exportaciones de camarón alcanzaron 29 millones de libras comercializadas en mercados internacionales.

Europa se mantiene como el principal destino de las exportaciones hondureñas y absorbe una parte de la producción nacional. Ese mercado muestra demanda por el reconocimiento que ganó el producto hondureño por su calidad y el cumplimiento de estándares internacionales.México figura como el segundo comprador del sector acuícola nacional.
A esos destinos se suman Estados Unidos, Canadá, los países centroamericanos y naciones asiáticas, mercados que representan oportunidades de crecimiento para los productores hondureños.
Senasa mantiene programas permanentes de supervisión orientados a identificar posibles riesgos sanitarios y aplicar medidas preventivas antes de que afecten la producción.
Estas acciones también apuntan a sostener la reputación internacional del camarón hondureño, un factor relevante en las decisiones de compra de los mercados globales.
Como parte de la estrategia de fortalecimiento exportador, Senasa también trabaja de manera coordinada con la Agencia de Regulación Sanitaria (ARSA) y la Administración Aduanera de Honduras.
La combinación de controles sanitarios, coordinación institucional, apertura de mercados y fortalecimiento de la producción sostiene la expansión de uno de los sectores que más contribuyen a la generación de empleo y divisas.

Donald Trump pidió frenar los ataques en Medio Oriente y aseguró que el acuerdo con Irán está “muy cerca”

Donald Trump instó a todas las partes involucradas en el conflicto de Medio Oriente a evitar una nueva escalada de violencia, en un mensaje enfocado en la inminente posibilidad de firmar el tan ansiado acuerdo de paz con el régimen de Irán.
En un mensaje publicado en Truth Social, el presidente norteamericano subrayó que el reciente ataque israelí contra un bastión de Hezbollah en Beirut no debió ocurrir, especialmente cuando las negociaciones para un acuerdo parecen encontrarse en una etapa decisiva. Sin embargo, reconoció el derecho de Israel de defenderse de los ataques del grupo terrorista.
“El ataque de esta mañana contra Beirut no debería haber ocurrido, sobre todo en un día tan especial en el que estamos tan cerca de alcanzar un acuerdo de paz con Irán. Israel tiene derecho a defenderse de las amenazas, pero el ataque al que respondía fue muy leve e insignificante; nadie resultó herido ni murió, y no debería entorpecer este importante proceso”, apuntó.
El mensaje de Trump llegó después del bombardeo israelí contra un edificio de apartamentos en el vecindario de Dahiya, en Beirut, que dejó al menos tres muertos y quince heridos, de acuerdo con la agencia oficial de noticias libanesa NNA. El ataque, que empleó misiles guiados por láser, causó daños importantes en inmuebles y comercios cercanos. Israel argumentó que actuó en represalia por ataques previos de Hezbollah contra su territorio.
“Estamos muy cerca de un acuerdo que traerá la paz a la región, incluido el Líbano, y todas las partes deberían mantener la calma. No debería haber más ataques por parte de Israel en ningún lugar del Líbano, pero tampoco debería haber más ataques por parte de ninguna otra parte, incluido Hezbolá, contra Israel. Este podría ser el comienzo de una paz larga y hermosa: ¡no lo echemos a perder!», completó el jefe de Estado, quien este domingo cumple 80 años.
El ataque en Beirut se produjo en un contexto de negociaciones delicadas entre Estados Unidos e Irán. Por parte del gobierno iraní, la reacción fue inmediata. El presidente del Parlamento y jefe del equipo negociador, Mohamed Baqer Qalifab, advirtió que el ataque israelí podría poner fin al diálogo abierto con Washington. Qalifab expresó su desconfianza en la capacidad de Estados Unidos para cumplir sus compromisos, señalando que los hechos demuestran que el gobierno estadounidense “o no tiene la voluntad de cumplir con sus compromisos o no tiene la capacidad para ello”. Añadió que, mientras Estados Unidos “dé luz verde” a las operaciones israelíes, el proceso negociador no podrá avanzar.
El jefe negociador iraní también subrayó que la firma de cualquier acuerdo depende del cese inmediato de los ataques israelíes en territorio libanés, particularmente en Dahiya, un área de alta densidad poblacional y centro de operaciones de Hezbollah, aliado estratégico de Teherán. Qalifab declaró en redes sociales: “El juego del ‘poli bueno’ y el ‘poli malo’ está pasado de moda. Si no tienen la voluntad ni la capacidad de cumplir con sus compromisos, no es posible continuar por este camino”.
El Ejército iraní, a través de su portavoz Sardar Asadi del centro de mando conjunto Jatam al Anbiya, prometió que los “crímenes contra los suburbios del sur no quedarán impunes”. Recordó que un episodio similar ocurrido el fin de semana anterior ya había desencadenado una respuesta militar iraní contra posiciones israelíes y estadounidenses en el golfo Pérsico.
La cancillería israelí respondió directamente en X a una publicación de Qalibaf, quien había cuestionado la voluntad y la capacidad de Washington para cumplir sus compromisos y advertido que, sin garantías concretas, no tenía sentido continuar las conversaciones. “El régimen iraní, como siempre, está mintiendo. El proxy de Irán, Hezbollah, es quien atacó a Israel nuevamente esta mañana, completamente sin provocación», respondió el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores israelí a través de su cuenta en X.
El desarrollo de los acontecimientos ha complicado la agenda diplomática prevista para este domingo. Según lo informado por la agencia semioficial de noticias Fars, los negociadores iraníes estaban reunidos en Teherán con una delegación de Qatar para revisar el borrador del acuerdo, aunque veían poco probable que se llegara a una firma en la fecha anunciada por Trump. Un portavoz de la delegación iraní indicó que “el examen de los aspectos políticos, legales y técnicos, a nivel de expertos, todavía continúa”.
Por su parte, el propio Trump había anticipado que la jornada de hoy sería clave para la firma de un memorándum de entendimiento con Irán. El documento contempla la reapertura inmediata del estrecho de Ormuz y el inicio de 60 días de negociaciones sobre el programa nuclear iraní y otros focos de tensión, bajo la premisa de un cese consolidado de hostilidades, con especial atención a la situación en Líbano.
El mensaje del presidente de Estados Unidos busca contener una nueva escalada militar y preservar la posibilidad de un entendimiento histórico con Irán. Las próximas horas serán decisivas para determinar si el proceso diplomático sobrevive al nuevo episodio de violencia o si se impone una nueva fase de confrontación en la región.
