N.Y. lieutenant governor to challenge Hochul in Democratic primary
Antonio Delgado, New York's lieutenant governor, announced he will run for governor in the state, setting up a bitter Democratic primary battle against the person who appointed him: Gov. Kathy Hochul. In his campaign launch video on Monday, the former congressman highlighted his upbringing in Schenectady, New York, and called for 'bold, decisive, and transformational' leadership. While his announcement didn't mention Hochul by name, Delgado mentioned New York's housing affordability crisis and legal fights the state faced from the Trump administration in what he suggests is retaliation for its liberal policies. 'Listen, the powerful and well-connected have their champions,' Delgado says in the video. 'I'm running for governor to be yours.' Delgado, who represented parts of Hudson Valley during two terms in Congress, was appointed by Hochul to lieutenant governor in 2022 after her previous lieutenant governor, Brian Benjamin (whom Hochul also appointed), was indicted on bribery charges and resigned — though the charges against him were ultimately dropped. Delgado said in February he wouldn't seek reelection as lieutenant governor in 2026, fueling speculation he could mount a primary challenge to Hochul. 'When I first made the decision to run for office after the 2016 presidential election, I did so because I believed we needed more leaders in government willing to hold themselves accountable to the people — and only the people. I believe New Yorkers deserve this kind of leadership now more than ever,' Delgado wrote then. 'All options are on the table, and I will be exploring them.' Hochul's office released a scathing response, appearing to confirm the months-long discord between the two officials. 'Today, Antonio Delgado finally said out loud what has been obvious for quite some time: he is simply not interested in doing the job of the Lieutenant Governor of the State of New York. Governor Hochul had already begun taking steps to identify a new running mate for 2026,' the statement read, adding that her office would be 'reallocating' his duties to make sure they are 'no longer neglected.' In July 2024, Delgado called for former president Joe Biden to step aside and drop his reelection bid, becoming the first statewide Democrat to do so. The move put him at odds with Hochul, who was still a stalwart supporter of Biden's bid. Delgado called for New York Mayor Eric Adams to resign in February amid his federal corruption charges and allegations that Adams engaged in a 'quid pro quo' agreement with the Trump administration to have the charges dropped, sharply breaking with Hochul, who said she would not remove Adams from office and instead proposed oversight measures over his administration. A federal judge dismissed the corruption case against Adams in April. Meghan Meehan-Draper, executive director of the Democratic Governors Association, backed Hochul in a statement on Monday, calling the governor 'a proven leader with a strong record of delivering for New Yorkers.' 'The Democratic Governors Association is 100 percent behind Governor Hochul as she continues to deliver for New York, take on Donald Trump, and build the operation it will take to beat Republicans up and down the ballot in 2026,' Meehan-Draper said.

Suspicious incendiary device found near Blue Ridge Parkway prompts evacuation
Rangers with the National Park Service (NPS) responded to a section of the Blue Ridge Parkway near Asheville, North Carolina, on Sunday after receiving reports of a suspicious item in the dirt. Officials with the NPS said the device was located near an intersection by the Folk Art Center at about 11:45 a.m. The Asheville Police Department Bomb Squad, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation responded to the scene, as did fire and emergency crews from Asheville and Riceville. The NPS said the Folk Art Center was evacuated and a section of the parkway was closed temporarily as a precaution. Specialists safely removed the item, and the NPS said there are no current threats to the public. Officials referred to the device as an "Improvised Incendiary Device." The NPS did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for further information. The NPS said its investigative services branch is investigating the matter. Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to contact the NPS Investigative Services Branch at 888-653-0009, by submitting a tip at or by emailing the agency at nps_isb@ Construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway began nearly 90 years ago at Cumberland Knob, North Carolina, which is at the Virginia border. Since then, the parkway has become an integral part of the mountains and the Appalachian communities that lie along its 460-mile route, as well as a gateway to the region's culture and history. With a top speed of 45 mph along its curving roads, the parkway also offers a chance for visitors to slow down and enjoy the scenery. The 264 overlooks offer breathtaking views of the mountains and valleys, sunrises and sunsets, and the stars on clear nights. The parkway connects Shenandoah National Park with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It starts at Rockfish Gap, Virginia, intersecting Skyline Drive, and winds southwest through Virginia into mountainous western North Carolina. Travelers will find campgrounds and hiking trails, glimpses of small-town Appalachian life in places like Floyd, Virginia, the small cities of Roanoke, Virginia, and Asheville, North Carolina, and many other treasures tucked away in the mountains.
