Chicago's 'Rooftop Pastor' to embark on epic cross-country journey to benefit America's troubled youth
A Chicago pastor, known for his unconventional forms of activism, is taking the next step in trying to inspire the country's youth. Pastor Corey Brooks, known as "Rooftop Pastor," is preparing to walk 3,000 miles from New York to Los Angeles this September. He said his goal is to raise awareness and funding for community development in Chicago, and for underserved youth across the country. "Our country has gotten away from God, our families and communities have gotten away from God, and we need a spiritual awakening in America," Brooks told "Fox & Friends" on Tuesday. "That's one of the reasons why I'm walking across America, to take the hope to people across cities and suburbs and countryside to let them know that we can change things." Brooks gained national attention in 2011 when he spent 94 days living on the roof of a rundown Chicago motel to protest violence and the deaths of young people in his community. The pastor aimed to raise money to demolish the abandoned motel, which he said had become a hub for drugs and crime. That demonstration was a success and led to the founding of Project H.O.O.D., a non-profit aimed at helping at-risk youths escape poverty and violence. The organization's website says it provides mentorship, training, and community support to local residents. "In Chicago, we've taken one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in all of America, and we've transformed it," said Brooks of their previous work. Now, he wants his latest mission, dubbed the "Walk Across America," to help him aid even more young people. The journey's goal is to raise $25 million in private donations to finish building Project H.O.O.D.'s 90,000-square-foot Leadership and Economic Opportunity Center in Chicago, debt-free. Brooks said he aspires to spread Project H.O.O.D. throughout the country. "We have a school to put in place. Our goal is to plant Project H.O.O.D. across the country," Brooks said. "That's one of the reasons why we're walking to raise these funds. It's not just a walk about raising money, but it's a walk about raising merit." Brooks said the effort has already received support from private citizens, business leaders, and donors. "We're building a 90,000-square-foot center. And that's because of the help of [the] American people and [the] Fox Network," he said, expressing gratitude to those who have already supported his walk. Brooks said he hopes his walk will teach others that faith and hard work can help people do great things. "I really believe America still works," he said. "When we have faith and hard work and vision activated, we can make anything happen in America."

Trump border czar defends ICE against ‘false narrative' as poll flags voters' deportation concerns
Trump border czar Tom Homan reacted to Fox News polling indicating that nearly half of respondents believe ICE deportation efforts are too aggressive and that more than half believe that only illegal immigrants convicted of crimes should be deported. "If there's any change in the polls on ICE enforcement, it's because they're being fed a false narrative by 95% of the media," Homan told "Fox & Friends" on Tuesday. "70% of the people we're arresting are criminals. Who are the other 30%? [They're] national security threats. We've arrested over 300 Iranian nationals. These are people who are a national security threat based on intelligence, based on other information. These are people we have to take off the street, that we have to deport." Homan said the rest of that 30% includes those removed upon a judge's request after receiving due process. He further defended ICE operations by insisting that the agency's job is to deport those who align with certain criteria and to execute immigration laws enacted by Congress. "The left will make it seem like we're out arresting innocent people, disappearing people, kidnapping people, but the facts are the facts. ICE is prioritizing public safety threats and national security threats, and the numbers prove it," he continued. The latest Fox News survey, released Monday, found that three in ten backed deporting all illegal immigrants, while six in ten supported only deporting those charged with crimes while allowing others to stay and apply for citizenship. One in 10 favored letting all illegal immigrants remain in the U.S. On the Trump administration's approach to deportation, 49% feel ICE has been too aggressive in its efforts to deport illegal immigrants, while a quarter (24%) say it has not been aggressive enough. Nearly three in ten say deportation efforts are about right (27%).

Tulsi Gabbard fires back at Obama: ‘absolute failure'
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard fired back at former President Barack Obama, accusing him of deflecting from his administration's 'absolute failure' to vet intelligence reports used to fuel narratives of Russian collusion with the 2016 Trump campaign. 'The treasonous conspiracy that we have now released to the American people — the complicity, the deflection, and the silence of politicians, of the mainstream media, and of those directly implicated into this speaks volumes,' Gabbard said on Fox & Friends Saturday. 3 Gabbard fired back at Obama Saturday on Fox. MediaPunch / BACKGRID Advertisement On Tuesday, President Trump called for criminal charges against Obama, 63, for allegedly ordering an intelligence report saying Russia meddled to help him win the White House in 2016. Trump was referring to documents Gabbard declassified last week. Obama's office responded, calling the claims an attempt at distracting from the scandal over the administration's handling of the Epstein files. Advertisement 'Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response,' Patrick Rodenbush, a spokesman for Obama said. 3 Obama called the claims against him 'bizarre.' Corbis via Getty Images 'But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction,' he said, referring to the mounting pressure on Trump to release the Epstein files. 'Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes.' Advertisement 3 Gabbard released documents last week about Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Anna Wilding / Gabbard lashed out at Obama's answer during her Fox appearance. 'President Obama's very carefully worded response that came from his office, again, deflects away from addressing any of the truth that was revealed,' she said. 'They would have to admit and actually address the details of their complicity in this or their absolute failure in conducting the most basic responsibilities of, again, asking, where is this intelligence coming from? Advertisement Gabbard sent a criminal referral to Attorney General Pam Bondi Friday against Obama.
