President Trump sent the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, this week as part of his effort to crack down on crime in some of America’s major cities.

In a truth post, he blamed part of Portland’s problems on “ANTIFA and the Radical Left Anarchists,” who he says have been “viciously attacking our Federal Law Enforcement Officers.”

Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony spoke to Gabriel Nadales, a former Antifa activist.

Nadales explained how Antifa is organized and how they try to intimidate those they disagree with,

He also explained why he left the movement and why he believes they should be designated as a terrorist organization.

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

Evening Edition: GOP Focuses Finger-Pointing Over Shutdown On Sen. Schumer Oct 04, 2025

Show notes

In the ongoing blame-game over who is responsible for the government shutdown, Republicans have become relentless in who they see as the main obstacle and what his motives are. Republicans in Congress, and Vice President J.D. Vance, say that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's concerns over a possible 2028 primary challenge from far-left darling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, has pushed him to convince Senate Democrats to defeat the GOP government funding bill. Meanwhile, the House will be out of D.C. all of next week on newly planned 'district work period'.

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Yemisi Egbewole, former Chief of Staff and Advisor to the Biden White House Press Office, who says Senator Schumer has had a history of failing in negotiations with Republicans.

Business Rundown: Zohran Mamdani's Rise And The "Socialism Threat" Oct 03, 2025

Show notes

Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani continues to hold a significant lead in the New York City mayoral polls, despite business leaders warning that his progressive policies could spark an exodus of both companies and residents.

His platform includes tax hikes on top earners, rent freezes, and promises like free buses and free childcare.

His popularity in our country’s largest city highlights the concern that capitalism is losing popularity. A Gallup poll from last month indicates that only 54% view capitalism favorably, down from 60% in 2021.

Meanwhile, 39% of Americans—in that same poll—say they have a positive perception of socialism.

Despite a track record of failed experiments worldwide, voters and lawmakers appear to be warming to socialism-inspired policies; for example, up to 18 states have experimented with universal basic income programs.

FOX Business Network's Dave Asman joins Gerri Willis to discuss his new four-part series, "The Socialism Threat," which examines the failures of socialism in the past and how governments are now trying to reverse the economic damage done.
