Lara Trump Teases Potential Senate Run in 2026
Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of President Donald Trump, revealed Monday that she is "considering" a run for U.S. Senate, following North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis' announcement on Sunday that he will not seek re-election in 2026. Lara Trump, who is married to Eric Trump and hosts Fox News' "My View with Lara Trump," joined Fox Across America with guest host Emily Compagno and said, "A lot of people probably remember I've considered kind of running for or filling a Senate seat, now, this would be the third time. The first time was actually during the midterms in '22. Ted Budd ultimately ran for the GOP and won that Senate seat there in North Carolina. And then obviously Marco Rubio in Florida, vacating his Senate seat to become our incredible secretary of state. The timing of both of those didn't really work out for me and to be fully transparent, I would love to do it. She continued, "This is all kind of fresh within the past 24 hours for me, really learning that this was a viable option and that Senator Tillis wouldn't be seeking re-election. So look, I'm considering it. I think that one thing that I think all of us in the Trump family have learned is that it is so incredible to be able to impact the lives of people across this country. No one knows that more so than my father-in-law. And North Carolina is my home state. It's where I was born and raised. It made me the person I am today. And obviously I have a lot of things to look into with it, but yeah, I mean, it is something that if it works out and the timing works and it works for my family, it is absolutely something that I would consider doing." This is a breaking news story. Updates to follow.

Todd and Julie Chrisley want to advocate for prison reform
Todd and Julie Chrisley want to dedicate their lives to prison reform advocacy. The couple were jailed in 2023 after being found guilty of 12 counts of tax evasion and fraud with Todd, 56, sentenced to 12 years behind bars and Julie, 52, ordered to serve seven, but they were freed last month after being pardoned by President Donald Trump and they want to use their position to help others behind bars. Speaking on Fox News Channel's My View with Lara Trump, Julie said: "I have a dear friend in there who's 77 years old. And that, unless God intervenes, she's going to die in there. I mean she could be any of our grandmothers. "There's so many young women who are young mothers who got these crazy sentences, never been in trouble in their life. "I'm not walking away. That's something, a pledge that I've made to them and to myself." Todd revealed the family are planning their return to reality TV, with an as-yet announced show likely to document their return to South Carolina as they build a new hotel business. He said: "We're coming back to television. It's amazing that those that walked away from me are the first ones knocking at the door again." Todd and Julie married in 1996 and the patriarch - who has Lindsie and Kyle from his first marriage, and Chase, 28, Savannah, 27, Grayson, 19, and Chloe, 12, with his spouse - cried himself to sleep on his first night in prison because he and his wife had never spent a night apart. He said: "When the lights went out, I literally cried myself to sleep because it's the first time Julie and I had ever been away from each other since we had been married. "I'd never not been in that house when my kids woke up in the morning or when they went to bed at night." And while they couldn't contact one another behind bars, Julie was never out of her husband's thoughts. He said: "I was never away from her because she was in my spirit the entire time. "I thought of her every second of my day. And so, when I hugged her the first time [after being released], it was like I was home in my heart spiritually."
