summarize the fox news and newsmax coverage of melania trump's speech today

First Lady Melania Trump returned to the White House Rose Garden to announce a $2 million scholarship partnership between Fox Corporation, IndyCar, and her "Fostering the Future" initiative. Opening with the joke, "I heard you missed me. Here I am," her speech focused on supporting youth aging out of foster care.

Key Highlights of the Event
The Opening Line: She poked fun at her month-long public absence by greeting reporters with, "I heard you missed me. Here I am".

The Initiative Expansion:
She announced that the program is adding Indiana University and Purdue University, bringing the total to 26 participating colleges and universities nationwide.

The Funding:
The expansion is backed by a $2 million donation resulting from the partnership with IndyCar and Fox Corporation ahead of the upcoming Freedom 250 Grand Prix.

Core Message:
She stated that America's greatest investment is not in capital or infrastructure, but in its children.

Media Coverage Focus
Fox News: Highlighted her return to the spotlight, framing the announcement as a major philanthropic win and spotlighting Fox Corporation's partnership in providing career and academic pathways for foster youth.
Newsmax & General Outlets: Emphasized her lighthearted acknowledgment of her absence from the public eye and detailed the logistical rollout of the scholarship expansion alongside IndyCar officials.
