In Trump’s crosshairs, Massie rakes in more than $1M this week while fighting for political life

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Rep. Thomas Massie’s campaign has raked in more than $1 million so far since launching a «Moneybomb» fundraiser on Monday morning, according to a running tally displayed on the fundraising website.
The embattled Republican, who represents Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District, is competing in a GOP primary showdown against former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein, the candidate backed by vociferous Massie critic President Donald Trump.
«This race has become a national referendum on whether our country is better served by Congressmen like me who keep their promises, or whether Congress needs yet another ‘warm body from central casting’ like Gallrein who pledges to be a rubber stamp for the uniparty,» Massie wrote in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.
«He’s like central casting,» Trump said of Gallrein while speaking in Kentucky in March, adding moments later, » … give me somebody with a warm body to beat Massie. And I got somebody with a warm body, but a big, beautiful brain, and a great patriot. He’s unbelievable.»
Massie added in his statement to Fox News Digital on Friday, «We are ahead in the polls, ahead in Kentucky fundraising, and way ahead in national support as shown by our million dollar moneybomb… as long as you don’t count the three liberal out-of-state billionaires propping up my opponent.»

Gallrein’s campaign fired back, providing Fox News Digital with the following statement from senior advisor Tim Murtaugh: «These are the last gasps of a member of Congress who promised to term limit himself to three terms, but is now seeking his 8th. He’s turned his back on Kentucky, he’s pointlessly antagonized President Trump, and has tried to obstruct the entire America First agenda. Thomas Massie serves only one person — Thomas Massie — and the voters of Kentucky’s 4th District are about to show him the door. Ed Gallrein is a heavily decorated, retired Navy SEAL a solid conservative who will support President Trump and the America First agenda. Massie’s ego and his act are worn out.»
Massie fired back in another statement to Fox News Digital, declaring, «In typical fashion, Ed has a surrogate repeating his lies. Ed is scared to debate me and even afraid to speak to the press.»
Before taking office in 2012, Massie signed a pledge declaring that he would support a term limits amendment to the Constitution. «I, Thomas Massie, pledge that as a member of Congress I will cosponsor and vote for the U.S. Term Limits Amendment of three (3) House terms and two (2) Senate terms and no longer limit,» the pledge read.

During an appearance on KET’s «Kentucky Tonight,» Massie, who has served in the U.S. House of Representatives since late 2012, was asked about the issue.
«After 14 years, are you not wading into career politician territory? And for those curious about you re-upping your Washington service, how is that better than honoring the spirit of that pledge you signed back in 2012?» host Renee Shaw asked.
«Well I’ve honored both the spirit and the letter of that pledge. I have cosponsored the bill that I said I would cosponsor and I voted for it. In fact, now I serve on the Judiciary Committee where that bill starts. All Constitutional amendments begin in the Judiciary Committee,» Massie replied. «So I’ve had the opportunity … and taken it, to vote for that … amendment to the Constitution several times.»

‘Die Hard’ actor Robert Davi blasts Mamdani after NYC map omits Little Italy

‘Friday Follies’: What happened to Little Italy on Mamdani’s map?
Laura Ingraham and Raymond Arroyo share their ‘Ray’s 3 Wishes’ segment, starting with Kathy Griffin’s love life and a shocking funeral pole dance in Amsterdam. They also criticize Justin Trudeau’s public antics. Ingraham then wishes New York City officials would recognize Italian Americans after omitting Little Italy from a map, highlighting alleged discrimination.

«Die Hard» actor Robert Davi blasted New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani Friday after a city map highlighting immigrant enclaves omitted Little Italy.
The «New York City Immigrant Enclaves» map resurfaced on social media earlier this week after users pointed out it omitted Little Italy, as well as historically Jewish and Irish neighborhoods, despite highlighting 30 immigrant communities across the five boroughs.
Following criticism from Italian-American groups, the city said it plans to update the map to include Little Italy.

Davi, who was born in Astoria, Queens, lashed out at Mamdani in a video posted on X, calling him a «jerk» for snubbing Little Italy.
«I hope every New York Italian American and Irish American spits on you when they see you,» Davi said. «I would spit on you if I saw you. Shame on you, you garbage man. Shame on you. Respect the city you’re in and understand the people who helped build it.»
«My grandparents came from Sicily and Naples and they taught me, speak the English. This is America. God bless America,» the 75-year-old «Licence to Kill» actor said.

«My grandfather enlisted in World War I and got wounded three times … he helped build New York City as an immigrant, an Italian immigrant,» he continued.
The veteran actor also suggested the mayor, whom he described as a «leftist Marxist Communist,» leave the United States.
«Go back to where you were born, Mamdani,» Davi said. «You don’t belong in America.»

Mamdani was born in Kampala, Uganda, and moved to the United States when he was 7 years old.
Davi also suggested there should be a constitutional amendment preventing Mamdani from running for public office.
«You should spend time in America, at least a generation, especially those of you that come from a country that has a totally different philosophical ideology bent,» he said.
The mayor’s office previously directed Fox News Digital to remarks Mamdani made during an unrelated press conference Friday, where he defended the map and said it had originally been created under the previous administration in 2023.
«This map was initially created by the prior administration in 2023, and when we inherited it, we added a few additional neighborhoods,» Mamdani said. «It’s clearly not an exhaustive list of the more than 200 ethnic communities that call our city home, and we’re going to be making additional changes in the future to reflect that and that includes Little Italy.»
Fox News Digital has reached out to Mamdani’s office for comment.

Ucrania afirma que en la última semana hundió o averió 28 buques rusos

Robert Brovdi, jefe de las fuerzas sin piloto (drones) del Ejército ucraniano anunció este sábado que sus hombres hundieron o inutilizaron en los últimos días 28 buques rusos. Son 21 petroleros, varios mercantes y remolcadores. Ucrania intenta aislar la provincia de Crimea, legalmente suya pero anexionada por Rusia desde 2014.
La conexión entre Rusia y Crimea se hace por tierra por territorio ocupado en Ucrania. Kiev fue consiguiendo en los últimos meses hacer cada vez más arriesgada esa ruta terrestre y en las últimas semanas la tiene prácticamente bloqueada con sus drones, que atacan camiones y otros vehículos.
Ante la situación en Crimea, Rusia aumentó el número de buques que llegan desde sus puertos hasta el de Sebastopol, en Crimea, pero Ucrania respondió con un uso masivo de drones marinos y aéreos de ataque para entorpecer esa tránsito. Según varios cables de agencia, el sábado por la tarde apenas había tráfico marítimo por la región, prueba del éxito de la estrategia ucraniana.
Broydi dijo que sus fuerzas habían alcanzado 28 buques rusos sin especificar cuántos habían sido hundidos y cuántos quedaron inutilizados o tuvieron que ser remolcados de vuelta a sus puertos en Rusia. Ucrania también anunció ataques sobre Crimea, “sobre todo contra navíos e instalaciones energéticas”. Rusia pena para suministrar a Crimea todo el combustible que necesita, tanto para la vida civil como para las actividades de su Ejército en la región.
Mientas, Rusia sigue atacando Kiev con misiles. Este sábado hubo, según comunicó el presidente ucraniano Volodimir Zelensky en su cuenta de Telegram, 11 heridos. Las primeras explosiones llegaron, de forma poco habitual, antes de que sonaran las sirenas aéreas. El Gobierno ucraniano asegura que eso se debe a que Rusia estaría utilizando sistemas de misiles antiaéreos S-400 como si fueran misiles tierra-tierra.
Los ataques rusos se redujeron sustancialmente a principios de semana coincidiendo con la cumbre de la OTAN en Ankara, lo que para varios diplomáticos europeos es una pauta que se repite siempre antes y durante cumbres de la OTAN y de la Unión Europea. Estiman que Rusia reduce o detiene sus ataques porque de lo contrario es más probable la aprobación de nuevas sanciones.
Según Ucrania, la noche del viernes al sábado llovieron sobre el país seis misiles balísticos Iskander M/S-400 (tienen capacidad de llevar cabezas nucleares), varios misiles de crucero X-59/69 y dos misiles antiradar X31. De los 121 drones lanzados por Rusia, Ucrania asegura haber derribado 111. También hubo ataques contra la ciudad costera de Odessa.
Los cancilleres europeos deberían aprobar este lunes el vigésimo primer paquete de sanciones a Rusia desde que Moscú lanzó la guerra de agresión contra Ucrania la noche del 23 al 24 de febrero de 2022. Diplomáticos europeos siguen negociando este fin de semana para que los cancilleres lo validen este lunes, pero sigue haciendo dudas en algunos puntos.
Algunos países se resisten todavía a imponer nuevas restricciones al gas natural licuado ruso, que sigue entrando en Europa por puertos de Holanda, Bélgica, Francia y España. La Comisión Europea pretendía incluir por primera vez entre los sancionados al patriarca de la Iglesia Ortodoxa rusa Kiril, algo que la Hungría de Viktor Orban siempre había vetado. Pero fuentes diplomáticas cuentan que está prácticamente descartado por la negativa de Bulgaria (país de confesión cristiana ortodoxa que respeta la autoridad de Kiril) y en menor medida de Italia.
Kiril estuvo a punto de ser sancionado en 2022. Desde entonces Hungría mantuvo el bloqueo hasta que hace dos meses cambió el gobierno en Budapest y a Orban le sucedió Peter Magyar. La Unión Europea y la mayoría de sus países considera que Kiril es parte del esfuerzo de guerra ruso contra Ucrania por sus declaraciones incendiarias sobre el conflicto.
En sus sermones ha asegurado que el conflicto es una batalla espiritual entre Rusia y un Occidente moralmente decadente, que morir en la guerra sería para “limpiar todos los pecados” y que la agresión rusa contra Ucrania es “una guerra santa”. En 2022 el Papa Francisco le dijo que no debía convertirse en un “monaguillo del Estado”.
Los países europeos que defienden que no se le sancione aseguran que sus palabras, en el fondo, quedan dentro de la libertad de religiosa y que se sentaría un precedente peligroso. También son países que tradicionalmente mantuvieron buenas relaciones con Rusia y que nunca han sido de los más voluntariosos a la hora de sancionar a Moscú.

Beloved musicians among victims in deadly Bahamas plane crash; aviation authority grounds flights

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A devastating double aviation crisis in the Bahamas, including a deadly North Andros plane crash and a separate aircraft fire Friday, prompted the government to suspend flight operations for a local airline and launch a federal safety probe.
Shortly after 1 p.m. Friday, a Cessna 402 aircraft with Bahamian registration departed Lynden Pindling International Airport in Nassau bound for San Andros Airport.
The Aircraft Accident Investigation Authority (AAIA) said the plane «encountered difficulties» and crashed into bushes prior to landing.

First responders, including the Royal Bahamas Police Force, Airport Authority and emergency medical personnel, rushed to the dense brush where the aircraft went down.
The Bahamas Musicians and Entertainers Union confirmed in a statement Saturday that 10 people died in the crash, including prominent members of the Da Pond Band and a local DJ, whose artistry the union said «touched so many lives and helped to enrich the cultural fabric of The Bahamas.»
Bahamian Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis said a sole survivor was pulled from the wreckage.
«Ann and I are praying for the families who are now facing unbearable grief,» Davis wrote in a statement on X. «We are also praying for the survivor, whose recovery and care will remain in our thoughts.»

The identities of those killed in the crash have not yet been released.
While the AAIA’s preliminary reports initially indicated seven people were on board, officials are still establishing the facts of the flight manifest.
Just hours before the fatal crash in North Andros, a Flamingo Air flight en route to Mayaguana was forced to turn back to Nassau after the pilot reported a concern, according to the Ministry of Energy, Utilities and Aviation (MoET).
After the aircraft landed and passengers safely deplaned, the plane caught fire on the runway.

After the two back-to-back safety incidents, the Civil Aviation Authority Bahamas (CAAB) temporarily suspended Flamingo Air’s air operator certificate, according to MoET officials.
«The suspension is a precautionary safety measure and should not be treated as an adverse compliance action against Flamingo Air,» the agency wrote in a statement.
