FIRST ON FOX:The federal agency that oversees more than $126 billion in federal contracts is joining Vice President JD Vance’s anti-fraud task force, expanding the White House crackdown into the federal government’s contracting system.

The General Services Administration (GSA) calls itself the “engine of government” and serves as the federal government’s central contracting and real estate agency, overseeing the buildings, services and goods agencies rely on to operate. By joining the task force, GSA gives one of the Trump administration’s highest-profile accountability efforts access to its procurement data, acquisition expertise and cross-agency reach as the White House seeks to root out fraud in public programs.

“GSA sits at the center of the federal acquisition and contracting ecosystem, making us a critical force in the fight against fraud,” GSA Administrator Edward C. Forst said in a press release obtained by Fox News Digital.

“We are proud to join Vice President Vance and this Task Force to aggressively identify abuse, strengthen oversight and protect the integrity of federal procurement. GSA will bring advanced analytical capabilities, investigative support and cross-government coordination to help expose high-risk fraud patterns and stop bad actors from exploiting taxpayer-funded systems,” Frost continued.

The White House’s task force is a coalition of federal agencies created by President Donald Trump through an executive order to coordinate efforts to reduce fraud, waste and abuse in federal programs. Chaired by Vice President JD Vance, the task force focuses on improving eligibility verification, strengthening payment controls, sharing data across agencies and helping law enforcement disrupt fraud schemes.

The GSA has historically had some problems with improper payments.

In February, for instance, the agency’s Office of Inspector General released a report finding that “federal customer agencies relying on GSA pricing on schedule contracts are at risk of overpaying” due to failures from government contracting officers or inaccurate information submitted by contractors.

The White House fraud task force was established in March, and has racked up a few early wins in the weeks since. Law enforcement, working in conjunction with the task force, arrested eight people in California on suspicion of defrauding public healthcare services out of more than $50 million.

The task force also withheld $1.4 billion in federal funding from home health and hospice providers suspected of defrauding the government.

“GSA’s participation reinforces a whole-of-government strategy focused on restoring accountability, strengthening operational integrity and ensuring federal programs deliver results for the American people,” the press release reads.

“By combining the Task Force’s investigative mission with GSA’s government-wide infrastructure and procurement expertise, the administration is accelerating efforts to increase transparency, improve efficiency, and reinforce public trust in federal operations.”

American climber Tyler Andrews summits Mount Everest in record time, his team says

May 28, 2026 / 7:53 AM EDT / CBS/AFP

American climber Tyler Andrews set a new speed record using supplementary oxygen on Mount Everest on Thursday, his team told AFP, summiting the world’s highest peak an hour quicker than anyone before.

Andrews, 36, a native of Concord, Massachusetts, climbed the 29,032-foot peak in just 9 hours and 55 minutes, shattering the record of 10 hours and 56 minutes held since 2003 by Nepali climber Lhakpa Gelu Sherpa.

The time requires formal verification by Nepal’s mountain authorities.

Andrews summited Everest just before dawn on Thursday, according to posts on his Instagram, which included live GPS tracking of his route.

“He reached Everest’s peak in just 9 hours 55 minutes,” team leader Dawa Steven Sherpa of Asian Trekking told AFP.

The Asian Trekking team said that Andrews completed a solo climb, during which guides provided supplementary oxygen, food and water while tracking his ascent.

He had initially tried to break the 22 hours and 29 minutes speed record to climb Everest without supplementary oxygen earlier in May, but had to turn back.

“I’ve been training as an athlete all the way from high school cross country to running marathons to running in the mountains and, you know, Mount Everest is kind of the pinnacle of all of that,” Andrews told CBS Boston last month while he was training in Wellesley, Massachusetts.

Andrews, who said he is a cancer survivor, is raising funds to support youth athletes who lack access to coaching and equipment in Ecuador and Nepal.

More than 950 climbers have reached the top of Everest this season, with the weather window rapidly coming to a close.

Five people have died this season — two Indians and three Nepali climbers involved in Everest preparations.

That compares to the 18 people who died in 2023, the deadliest season on the mountain.

A U.S. and a Czech climber died on Mount Makalu earlier this month.

Nepali climber Kami Rita Sherpa, who scaled Everest for a record 32nd time earlier this month, returned to the capital Kathmandu on Friday, where he expressed concern about the experience of some climbers.

Pictures posted by climbers show a long line of people climbing up fixed ropes, queueing in the icy, low-oxygen high-altitude zones.

“It was very crowded this year compared to last year because there was more clients,” Kami Rita Sherpa told reporters at Kathmandu airport after flying back from the mountain. “There is a need for authorities to control this number.”

伊朗强烈谴责美国对伊朗阿巴斯港地区（Bandar Abbas）发动军事侵略、屡次违反停火协议并对伊朗及这一地区部分国家发表威胁性言论。

新华社报道，伊朗外交部发言人巴加埃（Esmaeil Baqaei）星期四（5月28日）在社交媒体上指出，美国持续违反停火协议侵犯伊朗，特别是在波斯湾和公海袭击商船，以及空袭伊朗南部地区。这些行为严重违反国际法和《联合国宪章》，联合国安全理事会有义务履行法律责任，追究美国责任。伊朗决心根据《联合国宪章》，采取一切必要措施捍卫国家主权和领土完整。

伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队公共关系部28日发表声明称，当天凌晨，美军空袭阿巴斯港郊区一处地点，随后伊斯兰革命卫队对发动袭击的美军空军基地进行了打击。

James Talarico campaign says it raised more than $3 million in 24 hours since Texas primary runoff

2026-05-28 6:01 AM ET / CNN

By Patrick Svitek

2 hr ago

James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for US Senate in Texas, raised more than $3 million in the first 24 hours after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton emerged as his Republican opponent, Talarico’s campaign first told CNN.

The haul confirms Talarico’s status as a formidable fundraiser as he looks to become the first Democrat to win a Senate election in Texas since 1988. The party is especially encouraged after the scandal-scarred Paxton defeated Sen. John Cornyn in a nasty primary runoff on Tuesday.

“Texans are uniting behind our campaign to defeat (Paxton) and the broken, corrupt political system he embodies,” Talarico said in a statement.

The $3 million haul is the most Talarico’s campaign has raised in a single day. It is more than the $2.5 million that Talarico raised earlier this year shortly after one of the biggest moments of his campaign: CBS’ decision not to air an interview that Talarico did with late-night host Stephen Colbert.

Talarico already raised $27 million in the first quarter of this year, one of the largest hauls by a Senate candidate ever. Paxton’s campaign and its affiliated committees took in $2.2 million over the same period.

Talarico’s campaign entered April with $9.9 million cash on hand, while Paxton’s groups had $2.6 million in reserves.

Talarico kicked off the general election with a rally Wednesday in Houston, where he touted his campaign’s fundraising success and promised the financial support would help “end 30 years of one-party rule in Texas.”

分析：欧洲减少对美国军事依赖 亚洲则加倍投入

（东京彭博电）美国与其他北约成员国的紧张关系，正推动欧洲国家考虑建立减少对美国依赖的集体防务体系，但亚洲的情况却截然不同。美国过去几年加强与印太盟友的军事协同，把更多导弹系统、战斗机和其他武器部署到印太地区，同时扩大了联合军演的规模与复杂度，以应对潜在危机如台海冲突。

日本、韩国、澳大利亚等国普遍认为，美国军事力量对遏制中国和朝鲜至关重要。他们也因此更愿意加倍投入联盟，与美国建立更紧密联系。

特朗普政府将中国视为比俄罗斯更直接的战略竞争对手，这种观点对华府的亚洲盟友有利。然而，为了拉拢美国，这些盟友需要做出贸易让步，增加国防预算，甚至奉承美国领导人。

特朗普近期再次恫言退出北约，主要因为在美伊冲突期间，欧洲盟友拒绝提供军事支持，以及长期存在的军费分摊争议。面对美国的撤军威胁，主张欧洲建立战略自主的法国总统马克龙带头呼吁欧洲提高自卫能力。

特朗普政府对待欧洲和亚洲盟友的态度截然不同

虽然特朗普也曾对亚洲盟国军费开支不足以及美国须单方面履行防务义务条约表示过不满，但近几个月来，白宫和五角大楼在对待欧洲和亚洲盟友的态度上形成鲜明对比。

今年1月，五角大楼政策主管科尔比访问首尔期间，称韩国为“模范盟友”，此前韩国宣布将国防开支提高至国内生产总值（GDP）的3.5%；特朗普赞扬澳洲的国防投资计划，并在3月与日本首相高市早苗会晤时称，日本在“方方面面”给予美国“巨大支持”。

这些盟友越来越愿意在印太地区部署兵力，不再仅是指望美国发挥领导作用，例如日本3月首次以正式参演方身份，派遣约1400名自卫队官兵到菲律宾，参加年度美菲“肩并肩”联合军演。与此同时，韩国和澳洲在美国的协助下，正在建造核动力潜艇。

美国印太司令部披露，过去几年，美国与印太地区盟友和伙伴每年举行约110次联合军演。一位不愿具名的美国军官表示，预计今年的联合军演次数将达到112次。

联合军演增幅最大的盟友之一是日本。美军在靠近台湾的日本西南岛链，活动更加频繁。去年9月，美日在冲绳、九州和北海道举行为期两周的“坚毅之龙”年度联合军演，参演兵力共约1万9000人，较前年多一倍。

特朗普近期关于对台军售的言论，加剧了外界对地区冲突风险的担忧。台海若爆发冲突，几乎肯定会将菲律宾和日本等邻近的美国盟友卷入其中，而脱离美国来应对这种局面，在许多国家看来是不可想象的。菲律宾防长特奥多罗去年就曾在香格里拉对话（简称香会）指出，美国的领导是不可或缺的。

1️⃣ Trump accuser

The Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into E. Jean Carroll, the former magazine columnist who accused President Trump of sexual assault. The investigation focuses on whether Carroll committed perjury in testimony related to her two civil lawsuits against the president. Juries previously awarded Carroll millions of dollars in damages, which Trump is appealing. Read more.

2️⃣ Fresh strikes

A fragile ceasefire is under threat after Iran and the US traded new strikes earlier today. They were carried out just hours after President Trump vowed to seal a favorable deal to end the war amid fluid negotiations. Read more.

3️⃣ Presidential health

President Donald Trump declared everything checked out “PERFECTLY” after his annual physical exam this week, as allies portray the 79-year-old as unusually energetic and sharp despite persistent scrutiny over his health. But even glowing assessments from his doctors have done little to quiet questions about Trump’s medical transparency and fitness. Read more.

4️⃣ Redistricting

Republicans are heading into the midterms with a significant advantage after aggressively reshaping House maps across the country. The GOP could finish this year’s redistricting battle 10 seats ahead, making it far harder for Democrats to retake the chamber even as President Trump’s popularity hits new lows. Read more.

5️⃣ Laos cave rescue

Specialist cave divers racing to rescue a group of villagers trapped in a flooded cave in a remote part of Laos say they are cautiously optimistic that the stranded men could soon be brought to safety.

当地时间星期三（5月27日），中共政治局委员、中国外交部长王毅（右）在美国纽约会见古巴外长罗德里格斯。 （中新社）

在美国持续对古巴施压之际，中国外交部长王毅会见古巴外长罗德里格斯时说，中国将继续为古巴主持公道、仗义执言，支持古巴人民的正义事业，并助力古巴经济民生的发展。

新华社消息，当地时间星期三（5月27日），王毅在美国纽约会见罗德里格斯（Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla）。王毅欢迎罗德里格斯出席联合国安理会高级别会议，并指出，此次会议主题确定为“维护联合国宪章宗旨和原则、加强以联合国为核心的国际体系”，反映了各方的共同诉求，得到广泛响应支持。

王毅说，要实现上述目标，就应坚持尊重各国主权独立，反对各种强权霸凌。法新社报道称，这被视为是在不点名批评美国。

王毅指出，古巴人民团结一心，坚定维权，展现出反对外来封锁干涉的坚定意志，赢得国际社会的尊重。

新华社引述罗德里格斯表示，古巴正面临革命以来最严峻形势，根源就是美国对古封锁制裁。感谢中方坚定支持古巴维护主权安全，在艰难时期予古帮助、为古发声。这充分体现了古中之间的特殊情谊。

法新社报道，古巴目前正遭受美国的能源封锁，而美国总统特朗普曾公开提出考虑接管该国。

同为共产主义国家的中国和古巴关系密切，中方承诺向古巴捐赠六万吨大米，以助其应对物资短缺问题，其中首批已于星期天（24日）运抵。

今年1月，特朗普政府在一次突袭行动中抓捕委内瑞拉前总统马杜罗后，就切断了古巴从其盟友委内瑞拉所获石油供应。

美国上周进一步加压，宣布以谋杀等罪名起诉古巴前领导人劳尔·卡斯特罗（Raul Castro），也有消息称美国政府正着手拟订针对古巴的军事行动方案，引发有关特朗普要推翻古巴政权的揣测。

乌克兰总统泽连斯基抵达瑞典，他将与瑞典首相克里斯特松会谈，预计双方将会就防空合作发表声明。

法新社引述《晚报》（Aftonbladet）的报道称，瑞典将宣布向乌克兰捐赠较老的JAS 39“鹰狮”（Gripen）C型和D型战斗机，并启动向基辅出售较新的E型战斗机的谈判。

两国于2025年10月签署了一份意向书，基辅将购买100至150架“鹰狮”E型战斗机。

泽连斯基和克里斯特松将于星期四（5月28日）新加坡时间晚上7时在乌普萨拉（Uppsala）空军基地举行联合新闻发布会，基地位于斯德哥尔摩以北约70公里（45英里）处。

这份意向书不具约束力，也没有具体日期，但克里斯特松当时说，如果一切按计划进行，首批战斗机“三年内”即可交付乌克兰。

泽连斯基当时说：“购买鹰狮战斗机是我们军队的优先事项。”

此前，由于一些伙伴国家要求优先采购美国F-16战斗机，瑞典曾暂停向乌克兰交付鹰狮战斗机的计划。
