Fox News: DHS unleashes possible money-saving measure for illegal aliens to self-deport: 'Safest option'
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will finance commercial flights and offer a $1,000 stipend to illegal aliens who choose to self-deport, claiming it will save taxpayers money. This initiative is expected to cost around $4,500 per individual, significantly lower than the current average of over $17,000 for deportation.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem emphasized that self-deportation is a safer and more cost-effective option for both law enforcement and illegal aliens. However, the program may face criticism as some view it as rewarding illegal behavior with taxpayer funds.

Fox News: Viral TikTok 'cookie challenge' tests family empathy, instinct, ethics
The viral TikTok "cookie challenge" prompts parents to test their children's generosity by withholding a cookie. Reactions vary, with some kids sharing while others react with tears or suggest buying more cookies. Parents share mixed results, highlighting each child's unique response.
Experts caution that the challenge does not accurately measure empathy, as it lacks scientific backing. Factors like mood, food security, and developmental stage influence children's sharing behavior. The challenge is seen as a lighthearted family activity rather than a true gauge of empathy.
