WATCH: Trump rallygoers reveal who they want as vice president
LAS VEGAS – Supporters of former President Trump attending his massive Las Vegas rally over the weekend revealed who they want to see share the Republican ticket alongside him in November.
Fox News Digital spoke to a number of attendees, whose answers were wide-ranging with even a few surprises thrown in.
“I’d say [Florida Sen.] Marco Rubio, and my reason is he’s in line with all of our beliefs, he’s in line with all Trump’s beliefs,” one supporter told Fox. “Marco Rubio is young, energetic, and we need somebody young, we need somebody in four years that can take over that has energy and youth and will keep the path that President Trump is going to line up for us.”

Her husband agreed, while another rallygoer simply said, “I’d like to see [Arkansas Sen.] Tom Cotton.”
Another supporter told Fox he wanted to see Trump select North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, citing his experience in business, which he said was something needed in America.
“I have my pick, and not many people agree with me, but I’d like to see Gen. Flynn,” one man told Fox, referencing former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, who briefly served under Trump at the start of his administration in 2017 and has been a staunch supporter since he first ran for president in 2016.

One man, who identified himself as a veteran, said he wanted Trump to pick Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who ran against him in the Republican presidential primaries.
“I think that would be a great deal. Trump is pro-military, and me being a veteran and Ron DeSantis being a veteran, I don’t think you can get a better combo, in my opinion,” he said as two of his fellow attendees agreed.
Another suggested former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley would be the best choice and called on her and Trump to “work together and get this country right back to where the country can be safe again.”

“And be great,” his fellow rallygoer added, while another suggested South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott.
One woman wouldn’t name a preference as she declared the only thing that mattered was making sure Trump won.
Trump’s campaign recently entered the next phase of the running mate search by requesting documents from several prospective contenders, including Rubio, Burgum and Ohio Sen. JD Vance.
Trump has suggested he will likely wait until July’s Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to name his pick.

SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — Mia Bailey, a transgender woman who pleaded guilty to killing both her parents, will be housed in a men’s housing unit, at least initially.
A Utah Department of Corrections spokesperson said Bailey will be in the intake unit while various needs are assessed, adding that it can take a few weeks to make the housing assignment, depending on availability within the unit that best fits the person’s needs.
Under a Utah law that took effect in May 2024, UDC is required to assign inmates to housing units based on their biological sex at birth, not gender identity, as a default rule.
The law does allow for an exception in cases for transgender inmates to request to be housed in a living area that does not match their biological sex at birth, only after a detailed, individualized security analysis.
That analysis must consider the inmate’s anatomy, physical characteristics, criminal history, past behavior while in custody, and whether the inmate has a history of predatory or violent behavior. It also must be determined that the placement poses a low risk to others and to the inmate, does not disrupt facility operations, and is not being sought solely to change housing assignments.
If at any point that placement is found to create safety or security issues, the inmate must be reassigned back to housing that corresponds with their biological sex at birth.
The Utah Department of Corrections currently houses other transgender inmates, according to a department spokesperson.
Bailey was given two consecutive sentences of 25 years to life earlier this month after previously pleading guilty to killing her parents.

Federal immigration agents shot at a moving vehicle on Wednesday morning during an enforcement and removal action in Glen Burnie, Maryland, striking one person and injuring another, officials said.
A spokesperson for the Anne Arundel County Police Department said neither person had life-threatening injuries, and both were taken to the hospital.
Anne Arundel police responded to a report of a shooting involving federal agents at about 10:50 a.m. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were the only officials involved in the shooting, police said.
Preliminarily, police said the agents approached a white van, but the vehicle attempted to run them over. The agents fired at the van, which accelerated until coming to a stop in a wooded area, police said.
When asked for comment, Department of Homeland Security officials said both civilians involved in the altercation with ICE are in the U.S. illegally. They did not indicate whether either of the men had been arrested.
“Continued efforts to encourage illegal aliens and violent agitators to actively resist ICE will only lead to more violent incidents,” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.
Anne Arundel police said they will investigate the shooting, while the FBI investigates the alleged assault on the agents and ICE conducts an internal investigation.
