Extra: How One State Turned Their Schools Around. Should Others Follow? Nov 09, 2025

Show notes

Promising to fix or improve schools is a staple of seemingly every political campaign, but doing so has proven challenging for decades.

Each time the nation's report card is released, the assessment fuels more debate about declining test scores and how to help students do better.

However, in recent years, there's been a bright spot in Mississippi, particularly in the fourth grade, where students are improving their reading proficiency.

Former Mississippi governor Phil Bryant recently joined the rundown’s Lisa Brady to discuss how his state has improved children's literacy scores and what some are calling the “Mississippi miracle”.

Bryant credits the state's Literacy-Based Promotion Act*, which he signed in 2013, for much of the improvement and explains how the changes it brought can serve as a blueprint for the rest of the nation.

We often have to 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 former Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant and learn more about how the Magnolia state turned its test scores around.

Show notes

Tuesday's off-year elections saw Democrats exceed expectations across the country, winning key races in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia. While these results weren't entirely surprising, they do raise questions about the 2026 midterms, the Republican strategy to maintain control of Congress, and the future of the Democratic Party, particularly due to a growing faction of Democrats openly embracing socialist policies. National Republican Congressional Committee Chair Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) joins us to discuss the Republican plan for the 2026 midterm elections, the increasing support for socialism among some Democrats, and the ongoing redistricting battles being waged across multiple states.

Later, former White House Chief of Staff for George W. Bush and FOX News Contributor Karl Rove joins us to discuss the life and legacy of former Vice President Dick Cheney, following his tragic passing on Monday.
