By  Stepheny Price , Julia Johnson , Kelly Phares , Megan Tome | Fox News Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., says he will vote to keep the government open, warning that a shutdown has worse consequences for Americans and would only empower President Donald Trump and Elon Musk further.

By Adam Shaw , Bill Melugin  | Fox News The Trump administration is rolling out a new app to replace the controversial CBP One app with the new replacement designed to facilitate the self-deportation of illegal immigrants.

The Trump administration has ended the ability to use the app for that purpose.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS
