DNI Gabbard Alleges "Treasonous Conspiracy" In Trump-Russia Controversy Jul 22, 2025

Show notes

When President Trump won the presidency in 2016, defeating former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Democrats accused him of "colluding" with Russia to interfere in the election. A lengthy investigation followed these claims, but it never led to impeachment, as Democrats had hoped. The Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, recently released a report declassifying some information and alleging a "treasonous conspiracy" by the outgoing Obama administration, accusing them of "manufacturing" what they call the "Russian hoax." FOX News contributor and George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley joins the Rundown to discuss Director Gabbard's accusations and what the American people may learn from a Department of Justice investigation.

An off-duty Customs and Border Patrol officer is in the hospital after being shot in the face Saturday night in New York City. Two illegal aliens have been arrested and are suspected of trying to rob the man at gunpoint. Homeland Security Secretary Noem says both of these men had been arrested and released several times. White House Border Czar Tom Homan said the city council in New York has locked them out of Rikers Island, so they can’t take in undocumented immigrants who end up in jail. Former Acting ICE Director and now Homeland Security Senior Advisor Ron Vitiello about the shooting of this border agent and the uncooperation from sanctuary cities.

Plus, commentary from the host of FOX Across America and FOX News Saturday Night, Jimmy Failla.

The AI Race Is On. Are Humans Ready For What's Next? Jul 21, 2025

Show notes

The AI race is on. America and China are fiercely competing to become the global leader in artificial intelligence by heavily investing in the power and data centers the technology demands. President Trump emphasized the urgency of surpassing China when he traveled to Pennsylvania last week to attend a summit where many companies pledged further investments in AI. Tristan Harris, Co-Founder of the Center for Humane Technology, joins the Rundown to discuss the race between the U.S. and China, how advancing AI models could impact American workers, and why he believes the industry must consider the potential dangers of this technology as it rapidly advances.

As the 2026 Midterm Elections inch closer, Republicans hope to keep their slim majority in Congress. In the past, the party in power has sometimes resorted to redistricting, also known as gerrymandering, to benefit itself in the upcoming election. President Trump has recently expressed his support for redistricting in Texas. FOX News Pollster and Political Science Professor Daron Shaw joins the podcast to discuss whether the President's desire to create more GOP-friendly districts is a sign that the Midterm Elections won't go in favor of Republicans.

Plus, commentary from FOX News contributor and host of the podcast Kennedy Saves the World, Kennedy.

Extra: Putin's Persecution of Ukrainian Christians Jul 20, 2025

Show notes

More than three years after Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the fighting continues despite President Trump's push for both sides to make peace since his return to the White House.

Trump has been more critical lately of Russia’s President Putin, who has been launching even bigger aerial assaults.

This week, the President announced a new deal to get more weapons from the U.S. to Ukraine, through NATO, paid for by European allies.

But the fighting is only part of the story.

Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Lisa Brady spoke with Steven Moore, founder of the Ukraine Freedom Project, and Anna Shvetsova, the group's chief operating officer, who grew up not far from the Russian border

The two discussed why American support means so much to Ukrainians, drone warfare, and why they say Christians are 'under siege' in Russian-controlled regions of the country.

We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Ukraine Freedom Project’s Steven Moore and Anna Shvetsova.

Extra: Behind The Moments That Fueled President Trump's Political Comeback Jul 19, 2025

Show notes

The moment that changed an election.

That's how Washington Examiner political reporter Salena Zito remembers the assassination attempt on Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last July.

She was there when shots were fired by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, grazing the ear of the then-former President, critically injuring two men, and killing husband, father, and firefighter Corey Comperatore, who was hit while shielding his family from the gunfire.

Although the Secret Service claims major changes have been made, questions about security failures persist.

We spoke with Zito about her perspectives from that day, the months leading up to it, and her new book, “Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America’s Heartland.”

We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full conversation.

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with journalist Salena Zito on President Trump’s comeback and his secret to winning over the Heartland in last year’s election.

Show notes

The United States aviation industry is facing widespread shortages in various key job areas including pilots, traffic controllers, and possibly most importantly, mechanics. A large portion of the current mechanics are approaching retirement age and shortages can lead to aircrafts being grounded causing flight delays and increasing costs for a flight. It is predicted the airline industry will need nearly a million more mechanics over the next twenty years.

Fox's Tonya J. Powers speaks to Suzanne Markle, the President and CEO of Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics, an institution for aviation maintenance technology, who says it is key to encourage younger Americans to gain interest in this much needed occupation that is a large part of our economy and an alternate to college-based jobs.
