The Pope makes an Easter appearance. I'm Jack Callahan, Fox News. More than 200,000 faithful packed St. Peter's Square in Vatican City today to celebrate Easter Sunday Mass. Pope Francis greeted them from a balcony following the main service. Dear brothers and sisters...
Happy Easter. The Pope is still recovering from double pneumonia that nearly proved fatal. Vice President Vance briefly met with the pontiff inside the Vatican earlier today. Trump administration now urging the U.S. Supreme Court to allow the deportations of alleged Venezuelan gang members to continue.
After the justices issued a temporary block to that plan, as Fox's Chandlee Painter reports. The high court actually siding with the American Civil Liberties Union in granting an administrative stay. And that temporarily blocks the deportations of suspected Venezuelan gang members being held in Texas. The Supreme Court had previously ruled the president could deport
under the Alien Enemies Act, as long as the illegal migrants were afforded due process to challenge their removal. Well, now the Trump administration is fighting back, saying advance notice was provided and, quote, at a minimum, this court should limit the administrative stay and leave undisturbed the government's independent authority to remove putative class members under Title VIII, which the application provides no basis to dispute.
High Court is requesting written arguments from both sides as deportations have been paused until a further ruling is issued.

Today marks 15 years since the Deepwater Horizon disaster when an oil rig exploded, killing 11 people and unleashing the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history. The Gulf Coast is still grappling with its aftermath as BP paid billions for cleanup and restoration efforts. However, many cleanup workers and local residents who suffer health issues linked to the spill continue to face court challenges with most cases dismissed and minimal compensation awarded.
While progress has been made in coastal restoration, some key projects in Louisiana have been delayed due to concerns over cost and local impacts. And as the U.S. pushes for more offshore drilling, environmentalists are warning the spill's legacy should serve as a stark reminder of the dangers.
Archaeologists have revealed strange inscriptions have been found at a location in Jerusalem where the Last Supper with Jesus Christ and his disciples is believed by many to have been held. The room of the Last Supper, also known as the Cynical, is located on Mount Zion and was built by the Crusaders in the 12th century. The discovery made this month by the Austrian Academy of Science, archaeologists identifying some 40 elements of graffiti, including five coats of arms.
Pictures from the site show various coats of arms and writings in ancient languages. Most of the inscriptions date back to the Middle Ages. Chris DiMeo, Fox News.
