Bryson DeChambeau is putting together a solid season at LIV Golf, and is looking to carry some of that momentum into the Masters this week in search of the first green jacket of his career.

DeChambeau is second in the LIV Golf standings behind Jon Rahm. But he enters Augusta National with back-to-back wins in Singapore and South Africa. As he heads into the first major of the golf season, DeChambeau is carrying something new in his bag.

He will use a 5-iron made with a 3D printer. It’s a club he built himself.

"There's this nature that I have about myself where innovation is a habit of mine, and I really find and take pride in that ability to learn — even through failure, even through making a bad decision or a good decision — what I can get from that," he told ESPN.

"We'll see where it goes. We'll see where it takes me. All I could say now is, if I don't put them in the bag, it's my fault now."

DeChambeau had manufacturing deals with LA Golf and Cobra. According to ESPN, his deal with Cobra ended in February.

Tinkering with his clubs isn’t a new strategy for DeChambeau. He said he had been tinkering with the idea of building his own clubs for a few years and tried a new wedge as he won in South Africa.

DeChambeau has had progressively better finishes at Augusta National since he made his first appearance in 2019. Since missing the cut in 2023, he finished tied for sixth in 2024 and tied for fifth in 2025. He missed the cut in 2022 and 2023.

"I feel like my game’s in the best place of its career, outside of maybe Greenbrier (in 2023) when I shot 58," he said. "I’m excited to get the week going and see where I can put myself."

He said his recent performances at the Masters were attributed to a more measured approach.

"More patience, like not as aggressive all the time. Knowing where to be aggressive and when not to be aggressive," he said. "Making better decisions, having a caddie that reins me in sometimes."

A top Virginia Democrat is defending support for the redistricting effort critics are calling a "power grab" on the part of Gov. Abigail Spanberger and Richmond leadership, dismissing claims that rural Virginians will have their voices diluted by an urban-centric map.

The redistricting referendum, before voters through April 21, would redraw Virginia’s 6-5 Democrat-majority congressional map to a likely 10-1 spread, leaving only Rep. Morgan Griffith, R-Va., from the Old Dominion’s mountainous far southwest in office for the GOP.

Rep. Suhas Subramanyam, D-Va., a first-term Loudoun County congressman, told Fox News Digital on Wednesday that the goal of the redistricting remains as stated in its referendum text: to "restore fairness" in congressional apportionment. 

When Virginians head to the polls, he argues, issues like the Iran conflict, health care funding and unease over the state of immigration enforcement will be on their minds.

SOROS-BACKED GROUP AMONG LIBERAL ORGS PUMPING EYE-POPPING CASH INTO VIRGINIA GERRYMANDERING EFFORT

"There’s two different things here … there’s the redistricting amendment: the reason the general assembly pushed this forward was to be a response to Texas and other red states who are planning to do this — the idea was to even the playing field going into the midterms," he said.

"The reason I believe people will vote for it is because they are angry at the Trump administration in Virginia," he added.

Subramanyam pushed back on claims from Republicans, including rural Rep. Ben Cline of the Shenandoah Valley, that areas like his, primed to be chopped up by the new map, will suddenly see their next representative ignore their needs. His district's population is centered in Loudoun, outside Washington, D.C., but it extends into rural Washington, Va., Sperryville and Warrenton, which together are geographically larger than the dense suburbs.

"I spend a lot of time in Fauquier and Rappahannock Counties, even though I live in Loudoun County, and they actually get a disproportionate amount of federal funding and appropriations requests from my office because we are working really hard in those counties and know they have a lot of needs."

THIS CRUCIAL STATE IS THE LATEST BATTLEGROUND IN REDISTRICTING WAR BETWEEN TRUMP AND DEMOCRATS

Subramanyam said that even if lawmakers hail from Virginia’s cities or suburbs, they will often go "out of their way" to support the counties they don’t live in because they need a voice.

"What I would say to [critics] is they should talk to my constituents in Fauquier and Rappahannock, who may not vote for me in big numbers, but they appreciate that we're working really hard for them anyway."

In that regard, Democrats are already lining up to run for Congress in a district that includes part of Subramanyam’s current area — a lobster-shaped district that Republicans claim is drawn intentionally to include a tiny slice of Fairfax and Loudoun for population’s sake, then expand far south to Powhatan and west to West Virginia’s state line while remaining blue.

State Del. Dan Helmer, D-Fairfax, progenitor of the state’s new gun control panoply, along with former first lady Dorothy McAuliffe and Jack Smith prosecutor JP Cooney, are all seeking the drafted seat.

Cline previously told Fox News Digital he worries for his current constituents, adding that the Shenandoah Valley is Virginia’s top agricultural area and farmers’ voices will have to be divided among five new federal lawmakers.

Expanding on voter sentiment, Fox News Digital asked Subramanyam about recent polling showing Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s popularity taking a hit amid her support for redistricting and other liberal priorities moving through the state legislature.

BATTLE FOR THE HOUSE RUNS THROUGH VIRGINIA AS COURT OKS HIGH-STAKES REDISTRICTING VOTE

"I wouldn't read too much into it," he said.

"She certainly is very early into her administration and has a lot of time to show people what she’s all about."

Subramanyam predicted that if there were a repeat election tomorrow, Spanberger would again defeat former Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears by the same 15 points as in November.

"We’re seeing that all over the country right now -- backlash against the Trump administration is finding its way into school board races and Supreme Court races in Wisconsin and places like Georgia."

Just down Leesburg Pike from Subramanyam’s district, Rep. Donald Beyer of Alexandria offered his own comments on the redistricting effort, telling NBC News a ‘yes’ vote is crucial for "those of us who believe that taking back the House is the most significant thing we can do to stop Donald Trump."

Beyer — whose seat is considered safe with or without a cartographic change — did mention the "fairness" aspect, calling the new 10-1 Democrat-friendly map "totally fair for America" even if critics found it "unfair in Virginia."

Virginia House Minority Leader Terry Kilgore, R-Gate City, whose rural district is closer to Birmingham than Washington, pushed back on the collective sentiment, telling Fox News Digital that the new map is "manifestly unfair" to the rest of Virginia.

"We’re a 51-49 state, not a 90-10 state. If they’re willing to silence nearly half the Commonwealth’s voters in the name of ‘fairness,’ what else are they willing to do?" he said.

Kilgore’s Senate counterpart, Minority Leader Ryan McDougle of Hanover, echoed him in recent comments to Fox News Digital, saying the new map is just the next step in the "con job" agenda from Democrats who claim to prioritize affordability but instead are "trying to shove another partisan power grab down our throats, this time wrapped in the phony label of ‘fairness.'"

A Michigan woman was arrested and hit with felony charges after she allegedly kept her disabled sister-in-law locked in a basement for two years, where she nearly starved the victim to death and blasted a radio non-stop.

Tasha Beamon, 48, was charged with vulnerable adult abuse and unlawful imprisonment.

The victim managed to escape the basement and broke a neighbor’s window on March 15 as she sought to enter the home, alert police and flee captivity, according to MLive.

The neighbor called 911 and the victim told police that Beamon, the wife of the 58-year-old victim's late brother, was holding her captive in the Saginaw home’s basement for two years before she found a way to free herself.

TWO ARRESTED IN NC AFTER POLICE FIND 13-YEAR-OLD KEPT IN DOG KENNEL, 5 OTHER KIDS IN 'FILTHY' HOME

"She told officers she was not fed very often and that she didn’t have any access to water," Saginaw Police Detective Sgt. Jeff Doud told the outlet.

The victim said Beamon had kept her on an old mattress since March 2024 with a nearby radio constantly blaring.

Police went to Beamon’s house and observed a lock on the basement door, a mattress on the floor and a radio playing loudly. Police also said there was a 5-gallon bucket of urine in the basement.

"Usually, somebody was there. She didn’t believe anyone was home at the time, so she was able to force a door open and escape," Doud said.

Emergency responders transported the woman to a hospital, where she was treated for severe malnourishment. Hospital staff told police the woman would likely die if she were discharged.

The neighbor told ABC 12 that he was shocked to find the victim suddenly in his living room with a metal pipe "almost as big as she is."

"I don’t even know how she had the power to even break the window," the man said. "I thought she was like 78. She was tall, skin and bones."

"She asks me to call the cops at first, which was weird. But that was the first thing she said to me: Call the cops," he added.

WISCONSIN COUPLE ALLEGEDLY STARVED SIX CHILDREN FOR YEARS, FORCING THEM TO EAT MOLD, BUGS AND DOG FOOD

Beamon later admitted to police that she kept the woman in her house without allowing her to leave. She also made 40 calls to the hospital where  her sister-in-law was staying.

Investigators suspect that Beamon was keeping the woman captive to collect her disability payments, Doud said.

Beamon was arrested on April 2 and booked into the Saginaw County Jail on $100,000 bond, the amount ordered after prosecutors described her as a danger to the public.

She will appear for a preliminary examination on April 20.

Colorado's tourism slogan, "it's our nature," has a menacing meaning for free speech advocates. Colorado is now arguably the most anti-free speech state in the union, pushing an array of measures attacking those with opposing social and political views. The irony is that the state has proved a bonanza for free speech with spectacular legal failures that reaffirmed rather than restricted the First Amendment. Now, the Democratic legislature and governor are back with new unconstitutional measures, including a requirement that lawyers not share information with federal immigration officials as a condition for filing with state courts.

Colorado legislators and judges have spent years attacking core free speech and associational rights. In the last election, the state attempted to strip President Donald Trump from the ballot with the support of a majority of its Democratic-controlled state supreme court. (The effort was later declared unconstitutional in a unanimous decision by the Supreme Court. Colorado could not even get any of the liberal justices to support its actions).

The state is responsible for the efforts to force business owners to create products celebrating same-sex marriages. That effort led to the Masterpiece Cake Shop case and then the 303 Creative case. Even after losing earlier efforts against Masterpiece Cake Shop owner Jack Phillips, the targeting of its owner continued for years. That litigation proved to be a tremendous victory for free speech.

Colorado has also been leading the fight to limit the speech and associational rights of professionals and parents on "conversion therapy." Recently, that effort led to another massive loss before the Supreme Court in Chiles v. Salazar, resulting in a resounding 8-1 rejection of Colorado's position. It could only secure the vote of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.

KAGAN TURNS ON LIBERAL ALLY JACKSON WITH FOOTNOTE JAB OVER FREE SPEECH

After that near-unanimous ruling against the state, Colorado responded by doubling down with legislation to expose any counselors engaged in conversion therapy to heightened legal liability, including waiving any statute of limitations. That case could also result in legal challenges as Colorado continues to spend a fortune on seeking to curtail free speech rights.

Now, the state is defending a new public accommodation law, HB 25-1312, that defines "gender expression" to include "chosen name" and "how an individual chooses to be addressed."

As in past Colorado cases, the state secured favorable rulings from district court judges. President Joe Biden-nominated U.S. District Judge Regina Rodriguez refused to grant a preliminary injunction against the Colorado public accommodation law.

COLORADO HOUSE ADVANCES CONVERSION THERAPY LAWSUIT BILL; GOP LAWMAKER CALLS IT ‘SLAP IN THE FACE’ TO SCOTUS

The Alliance Defending Freedom is appealing the matter to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit on behalf of its clients, XX-XY Athletics and Born Again Used Books. Other appeals are also being brought in the matter.

At the same time, the state has moved forward on Senate Bill 25-276, which imposes a threshold condition for state e-filings that requires lawyers to certify annually "under penalty of perjury," that they will not use "personal identifying information" from the system to help federal immigration enforcement.

The provision is vague on critical points in seeking to bar any information that might identify an individual or cooperating or assisting in federal enforcement. While the rule allows for compliance with federal law and court orders, it leaves considerable ambiguity on the scope of the rule.

JONATHAN TURLEY: WHY BLUE STATES' NEW ANTI-ICE LAWS ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL VIRTUE SIGNALING

It is common for courts to consider specific motions to seal certain information, but such motions must state a legal basis for such withholding of information in a given case.

Lawyers have already objected to the compelled endorsement of the state's anti-ICE policies as a condition to their representing their clients, as well as a bar on cooperating with federal authorities.

The law will likely face an immediate challenge not only from lawyers and clients but also from the federal government.

JONATHAN TURLEY: JUSTICE JACKSON'S 'CHILES' DISSENT REVEALS NARROW VIEW OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Denver Gazette investigative columnist Jimmy Sengenberger has been covering the story on limiting what is considered a public resource.

The Colorado Judicial Branch's page on the law previously posted a statement that "In September 2025, some users may have briefly seen a certification requirement appear in the system." It noted that the Judicial Department elected to take it down "for further internal and external discussion regarding the implementation of the new statutory requirements." However, it announced implementation in March.

It stated that the condition would apply to any "third party" with access to the system – "certain attorneys, LLPs, and, in certain case types, pro se litigants" with access to information that is not "available to the public online, in person, or through a records request."

It added, "We recognize that some people may be frustrated by the requirements of this new legislation," but insisted that the "judiciary is required to comply with the laws as enacted by the legislature and has worked hard to make the process as easy as possible."

In my view, the law is facially unconstitutional and should be struck down. Regardless of the outcome on these challenges, Colorado appears hellbent on maintaining its dubious status as the most anti-free speech state in the union. Citizens will continue to subsidize this effort to defend laws compelling or censoring speech.

Colorado's record is reminiscent of other blue jurisdictions like New York, Illinois and Washington, D.C. in creating precedent in support of gun rights. In passing flagrantly unconstitutional gun control legislation, these Democratic legislators and governors proved a windfall for gun rights advocates in triggering a series of major Second Amendment victories, including New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen and Heller v. District of Columbia.

Colorado appears to be working to create the same legacy on the First Amendment. The state motto, "Nil Sine Numine" (Nothing without Providence), is fitting. For free speech advocates, Colorado has proven positively a godsend in its string of losses in seeking to gut the First Amendment.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said on Tuesday that President Donald Trump has a "right" and a "duty" to influence federal investigations, including those regarding the president's political enemies who probed him in the past.

Blanche, who was named acting attorney general last week, dismissed the notion that the Justice Department has been improperly going after Trump's opponents and defended the president's influence over federal investigations.

"We have thousands of ongoing investigations and prosecutions going on in this country right now. It is true that some of them involve men, women and entities that the president in the past has had issues with and believes should be investigated," Blanche said at a press conference.

"That is his right and indeed it is his duty to do that, meaning to lead this country, and so I do not view this as pressure," he continued.

BLANCHE INVOKES 'LOVE' WHEN ASKED ABOUT STAYING ON AFTER BONDI

This comes after Trump fired former Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday after she failed to secure successful indictments against some of Trump's political rivals and amid bipartisan frustrations with her handling of the Epstein files.

The DOJ has opened several investigations into Trump's opponents, including U.S. officials who found that Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. presidential election to boost Trump, Democratic lawmakers who encouraged U.S. service members to ignore unlawful orders, former President Joe Biden's alleged use of an autopen to sign official documents without his direct authorization and liberal donors and fundraising groups.

Blanche shut down the idea that the Trump administration is weaponizing the DOJ, noting a few of the investigations into Trump that took place under the Biden administration.

"You had a president who, along with this department, had assistance, so this department helped two other local DA's go after the president. You had this department who stood idly by while states tried to keep President Trump off the ballot," Blanche said, adding that the Trump administration's "supposed weaponization" of the DOJ is "completely false."

Blanche, who represented Trump in three of the four criminal cases he faced while out of office, cited those cases as he argued that Trump "wants justice" for people he believes improperly weaponized the legal system against him.

PAM BONDI IS OUT AS AG — HERE ARE THE CONTENDERS WHO COULD REPLACE HER

The acting attorney general declined to say whether he wants to be nominated to the vacant attorney general post. He said he would be honored if Trump chose him for the role, but would still love him if he chose someone else.

"As to whether or not I want this job, I did not ask for this job. I love working for President Trump," Blanche said. "It's the greatest honor of a lifetime, and if President Trump chooses to keep me as acting, that's an honor. If he chooses to nominate me, that's an honor. If he chooses to nominate somebody else and asks me to go do something else, I will say, 'Thank you very much. I love you, sir.'"

Officials can serve in an acting capacity for up to 210 days. Trump has not signaled a nominee to take the role permanently, but he could nominate Blanche. The president has also reportedly had discussions with Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin about taking the job.

Reuters contributed to this report.

The two terror suspects accused of trying to bomb a protest outside New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's residence last month, in what authorities have described as an ISIS-inspired attack, were indicted on Tuesday, according to federal prosecutors.

Ibrahim Kayumi, 19, and Emir Balat, 18, are accused of throwing live explosive devices into a protest outside Mamdani's Gracie Mansion residence on March 7, after driving from Pennsylvania. The bombs failed to detonate and nobody was injured.

Both were charged with eight counts: conspiracy to provide material support and resources to a foreign terrorist organization, provision and attempted provision of material support and resources to a foreign terrorist organization, conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, carrying of explosives during the commission of a federal felony, transportation of explosive materials, interstate transportation and receipt of explosives and unlawful possession of destructive devices.

"As alleged, just weeks ago, Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi carried out a terrorist attack on the streets of New York," U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Jay Clayton said in a statement. "They sought to murder multiple innocent victims in the name of ISIS. The brave women and men of the NYPD responded immediately, and Balat and Kayumi were arrested on site."

NEW VIDEO SHOWS TERROR SUSPECT TACKLED AFTER ALLEGEDLY THROWING BOMB AT NYC PROTEST OUTSIDE MAYOR'S RESIDENCE

"Since their attack, our partners at the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force have uncovered evidence revealing the alleged meticulous planning by the defendants in their attack, including a notebook with detailed attack plans and a storage unit containing explosive residue and bomb-making materials," he added.

When speaking to law enforcement, Balat allegedly said he wanted the planned attack to be "bigger than the Boston Marathon bombing."

After Kayumi was arrested and waiting to be placed inside an NYPD vehicle, someone from the surrounding crowd yelled at him and asked why he carried out the attack.

"ISIS," he allegedly responded.

PENNSYLVANIA MEN ACCUSED OF ISIS-INSPIRED BOMB ATTACK ON NYC PROTESTERS NEAR MAYOR'S MANSION: TIMELINE

The pair also made comments recorded on dashcam in which they discussed soon carrying out the attack as they traveled to New York, according to the indictment.

"What do you think? Are they going to remove the airplanes for us ... over New York? Are they going to stop them? If we do the attack and the bombs go off and everything?" Balat asked.

"Just can't wait for that bomb to go off and his freaking head, his body to get split in half bro, dead," he added.

Kayumi said, "All I know is I want to start terror, bro" and "I want to petrify these people."

A forensic analysis of two unexploded devices — one that Balat tossed into the crowd of protesters and another that Kayumi handed to Balat before Balat dropped it on the ground near NYPD officers — found that both contained explosives, according to the indictment.

Mamdani said after the attempted bombing last month that "violence at a protest is never acceptable."

"The attempt to use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal, it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are," the mayor said at the time.

A Democratic candidate in a crucial Senate battleground showdown is taking plenty of incoming fire from his primary rivals as well as the Republican contender in the race as he prepares to team up on Tuesday with a controversial far-left online streamer.

Abdul El-Sayed, the 2018 Michigan Democratic gubernatorial runner-up who is backed by progressive champion Sen. Bernie Sanders I-Vt., as he seeks his party's 2026 Senate nomination, is scheduled to hold campus rallies at the University of Michigan and Michigan State University with Hasan Piker, as well as with progressive Rep. Summer Lee of Pennsylvania.

Piker, a potent progressive influencer, could help boost El-Sayed in a competitive and combustible Democratic Senate nomination race thanks to his millions of younger, progressive social media followers on YouTube, Instagram and X.

But the appearance at the campus rallies by Piker — who once said "America deserved 9/11," and who critics argue is antisemitic due to his sharp criticism of the Israeli government and the downplaying of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel — is alarming to many Democrats.

BERNIE-BACKED DEMOCRATIC SENATE CANDIDATE IN KEY RACE TAKES INCOMING POLITICAL FIRE

El-Sayed's top two rivals for the nomination have blasted his scheduled appearance with Piker, which was announced less than two weeks after a man rammed his truck into a Michigan synagogue, wounding a guard in what authorities said was a targeted act of domestic terrorism against the Jewish community.

"It is unacceptable for a candidate wanting to represent all Michiganders to campaign with Hasan Piker, a person who is unapologetic about a career of making hurtful and anti-Semitic comments," Rep. Haley Stevens said in a statement. "With all that's at stake in this election, we should be focused on the challenges Michiganders are facing and how to fight for them."

And State Senator Mallory McMorrow, in an interview with the Jewish Insider, called Piker "somebody who says extremely offensive things in order to generate clicks."

SANDERS-ENDORSED SENATE CANDIDATE KNOCKED FOR ALLEGED FLIP-FLOP TO 'HAVE IT BOTH WAYS' ON KEY ISSUE

"That is not somebody that you should be campaigning with at a moment when there is clearly a lot of pain and trauma across our state," McMorrow added. "You don’t fan the flames and stoke division just to get attention."

El-Sayed, Stevens, and McMorrow will face off in an early August primary.

It's not just El Sayed's Democratic nomination rivals who are criticizing his decision to team up with Piker.

Democratic Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan and the Anti-Defamation League have charged Piker is antisemitic and Matt Bennett, a leader of the well-known moderate Democratic group the Third Way, slammed El-Sayed as a "disgrace to the Democratic Party."  

Former Republican Rep. Mike Rogers, who's on a glidepath to the GOP Senate nomination in Michigan for a second straight cycle, told Fox News Digital in a statement, "If you would have told me a few years ago that Democrat frontrunners would campaign with known antisemites, I would've thought you were crazy. But one thing Abdul continues to prove, there's no limit to how far left Democrats will go."

WHO IS HASAN PIKER? MEET THE FAR-LEFT STREAMER WHO IS STIRRING UP CONTROVERSY ONLINE AND DIVIDING DEMOCRATS

"From calling to defund the police and make Michigan a sanctuary state, to attempting to abolish private healthcare, and now campaigning with an antisemite who claimed ‘America deserved 9/11,’ one thing that's for certain: Abdul and the Democrats are too radical for Michigan," Rogers argued.

In the wake of the deadly Oct. 7, 2023, attack that incited Israel’s war with Gaza, Piker described Hamas, a terrorist organization, as the "lesser of two evils" in the conflict.

Once, when asked if he supported terrorism, Piker answered by saying, "No, I don’t. I don’t support the state of Israel, and I don’t support the state of the United States of America."

He also faced backlash for praising the "brave" "mujahideen" who injured Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, who lost an eye in Afghanistan.

"What the f--- is wrong with this dude? Didn't he go to war and like literally lose his eye because some mujahideena brave f---ing soldierf---ed his eye hole with their d---?" Piker said.

El-Sayed has repeatedly stood his ground in defending his appearances with Piker. The candidate noted that Piker was allowed by Democrats to stream at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

"It's about speaking to a broader audience," El-Sayed said last week in an appearance on Fox News' "America's Newsroom."

El-Sayed emphasized that "just because you invite somebody to campaign with you or you're engaging with them does not mean that you agree with them....Every day, 30,000 people and counting tune in to Hassan's stream. A lot of folks who don't watch Fox News, they don't watch CNN, they don't watch MSNBC."

The Senate race in Michigan is one of a handful in this year’s midterm elections that will determine if the Republicans hold their 53-47 majority in the chamber. Michigan, where Democratic Sen. Gary Peters is retiring, is one of the National Republican Senatorial Committee’s (NRSC) top targets as they try to not only hold onto their seats, but also possibly expand their majority.
