The Fox News Rundown

Earlier this week, legendary comic Jeff Foxworthy joined the FOX News Rundown, sitting down with host Dave Anthony to talk about his career, his creative process, and his new FOX Nation special, The Joke's on Me.

Foxworthy explained why he wanted to take viewers inside the grueling creative process of stand-up comedy, rather than just make his latest special an hour of performing.

He also told Dave the origins of his iconic ‘you might be a redneck’ jokes and how his wife remains his toughest critic and a vital part of his career.

Jeff Foxworthy had many great stories and interesting insights from his decades in comedy and entertainment, but we couldn’t fit them all into our weekday version.

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with comedian Jeff Foxworthy.

As we mark the 250th anniversary of our country… it will be a time of celebration, but perhaps also a reminder of how divided we are. A recent FOX News poll takes a closer look at our national mood ahead of the Fourth of July… and it finds more Americans are holding an unfavorable view of the country. So, why are some Americans sour on the nation? Daron Shaw, a member of the FOX News Decision Desk and a Republican pollster who helps conduct FOX News surveys, breaks down a poll showing more discontent with the country and why some are letting current partisan issues impact how they feel about the nation as a whole. Shaw also looks ahead to some of the key midterm races that could decide the balance of power in Washington this fall.

Plus, FOX News Congressional Correspondent Bill Melugin speaks with House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer about their recent report on the Minnesota fraud scandal.

The World Cup has begun.

From Atlanta to Seattle, Philly to Los Angeles... World Cup games will take place in eleven U-S cities through July nineteenth... as well as five other cities in Canada and Mexico.

And preparing for potential security threats has been an expansive effort.

More than a billion dollars has gone out to cities and states for security, transportation, and to help local law enforcement combat drone threats.

While many of these decisions are coordinated across various agencies... the efforts are being led by a White House task force set up to manage World Cup logistics.

On the eve of the World Cup’s first games… we spoke with the head of that task force, Andrew Giuliani.

He broke down the months of planning and coordination required to secure the 78 matches taking place in America over the next several weeks.

He discussed their efforts to protect the venues, the risks soft targets face, and the work and training that went into addressing the evolving threat of drones.

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

Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our entire interview with the head of the White House World Cup Task Force, Andrew Giuliani.

This week, lawmakers on the Hill were working on reforms to FISA Section 702, a warrantless surveillance program that allows our intelligence agencies to spy on foreign targets. Though the program was kept alive with a short-term extension, Democrats and a small cohort of Republicans voted against a continuation after raising concerns over the president’s pick to serve as his Director of National Intelligence. FOX News Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins The Rundown to go over the drama surrounding FISA and the significance of its expiration, as well as the fight over a new reconciliation bill and this past week’s congressional baseball game.

Later, Andrew Giuliani, Head of the White House World Cup Task Force, explains the planning and coordination that went into the security surrounding the 78 matches that will be taking place in the U.S. this summer.
