Extra: The Case Against Nicolás Maduro Mar 29, 2026

Show notes

A military operation has led to a legal battle for the ages.

The deposed leader of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, appeared in a New York court this week facing federal charges after he and his wife were captured by American authorities in January.

The charges include narco-terrorism, drug trafficking, and conspiracy.

Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony spoke with former state and federal prosecutor Jim Trusty about the case against Maduro and when this complicated trial might finally begin.

Trusty also explained how these charges compare to those brought against former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega after he was captured by the U.S. in 1989.

We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you’d like to hear the entire conversation. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our full interview with Jim Trusty, who breaks down the unique challenges of this historic case.

Extra: The President Squeezes the Cuban Regime Mar 28, 2026

Show notes

Life keeps getting harder in Cuba as the country deals with persistent fuel shortages and power blackouts.

President Trump has put the squeeze on the communist regime—which has been in power since 1959—ever since the U.S. military operation that captured Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro.

The oil lifeline Venezuela had been providing to Cuba was cut off, and the President is now threatening tariffs on any country that supplies oil to the island.

Earlier this week, Andrea Linares, host of FOX Noticias on FOX Deportes and YouTube, spoke with Dave Anthony about the President’s pressure campaign and the ultimate U.S. objectives.

She shared what she is hearing from the Cuban people and discussed the likelihood that Cuba will finally open up to foreign investment. Linares also provided an update on life in Venezuela since Maduro’s capture.

We often have to trim our interviews during the week, but we thought you’d like to hear the full conversation. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our entire interview with FOX Noticias anchor Andrea Linares.

Jewish Communities Increase Security Amid Violent Attacks Mar 28, 2026

Show notes

Jewish communities in the United States will be observing one of the most sacred holidays of their religion, Passover, with increased security measures and concerns over hateful rhetoric as the war against Iran continues. The FBI is currently conducting an investigation into a terror attack against Temple Israel, the nation’s second largest Jewish congregation, in West Bloomfield, Michigan, in which a driver drove a vehicle packed with fireworks through the front doors. Other recent violent incidents have confirmed fears there has been a palpable rise in antisemitism.

FOX’s Tonya J. Powers speaks with Liora Rez, the executive director of StopAntisemitism, who says there too many examples that show a sharp rise in the use of tropes that claim Jews are puppeteering governments, the media and financial institutions which is raising security concerns during the holidays.

Is America Armed And Ready For Conflict After Iran? Mar 27, 2026

Show notes

President Trump says the U.S. is negotiating with Iran while claiming the United States is “way ahead of schedule” with military operations against the regime. However, questions are mounting in Washington over whether the military has the funding and weaponry needed to successfully end the conflict while maintaining readiness for other potential global threats. Texas GOP Congressman and retired U.S. Air Force Reserve Colonel August Pfluger joins the Rundown to discuss the president’s handling of the operation and the Air Force’s pivotal role. He also explains what must be done to ensure the U.S. military has the munitions and personnel necessary to fight this conflict—and future wars.

Award-winning actor Gary Sinise, famously known for his role as Lieutenant Dan in Forrest Gump, has devoted decades of his life to helping veterans, first responders, and their families. But his passion for honoring those who served our country—especially the young Americans who went to Vietnam—began long before he portrayed that iconic character. Sinise joins FOX News Senior Correspondent Benjamin Hall to discuss a lifetime of advocacy for the nation’s defenders, from his early support for Vietnam veterans in the 1980s to the upcoming 15th anniversary of the Gary Sinise Foundation. Sinise reflects on the "turning point" of 9/11 that accelerated his mission and shares the impact of building over 100 specially adapted, mortgage-free smart homes for severely wounded service members. Plus, they look ahead to a major "Welcome Home" celebration in D.C. for National Vietnam War Veterans Day, as Sinise explains why it is never too late to say "thank you" to those who never received a proper welcome home.

Show notes

Amidst the ongoing conflict with Iran entering its fourth week, the Sheba Medical Center, the largest hospital in Israel and the Middle East, is using an underground facility to ensure continuity of care, despite the threat of missile attacks. At the beginning of the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran, the hospital relocated more than a thousand patients underground in less than 48 hours. The medical center continues to operate almost completely out of their underground facility as the threat of missile attacks continues.

FOX’s Jonathan Savage speaks with Dr. Jordanna Koppel, a senior pediatrician at the Sheba Medical Center, who shares what emergency medical care looks like on the front lines of this conflict, and how it feels to be administering care even as bombs continue to drop.

A Bad Week For Social Media Giants Mar 26, 2026

Show notes

For the first time, a jury has looked past Section 230 protections to hold Meta and Google liable for the "addictive" design of their platforms. Following a bellwether trial in Los Angeles, a 20-year-old woman was awarded millions in damages after jurors found the tech giants acted with "malice, oppression, or fraud." Former prosecutor and FOX News contributor Josh Ritter joins the Rundown to break down the internal "smoking gun" documents—where employees compared social media to drug pushing—and discusses what this means for the thousands of similar cases waiting in the wings.

The U.S. justice system is bracing for an unprecedented legal battle as Nicolás Maduro faces federal charges in New York for allegedly leading a sprawling narcoterrorism conspiracy. Former state and federal prosecutor Jim Trusty joins to discuss the unique challenges of this international case, including the struggle to fund a private defense under federal sanctions, the legal hurdles of using classified evidence, and why the military-backed "Cartel of the Suns" makes a traditional trial or plea deal highly complex.

Plus, commentary by David Marcus, columnist for FOX News Digital.
