The Fox News Rundown

Tensions between United States' allies Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates seem to be ratcheting up with the central problem being Yemen. The two countries are supporting different factions in Yemen with the Saudis backing the recognized government, and the UAE supporting the separatist Southern Transitional Council (STC). It is coming at a time that complicates U.S. goals in the the region, and fractures a unified front against shared enemies like Iran and their proxies.

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Mark Dubowitz, CEO of the Foundation of the Defense of Democracies, who says the Trump Administration has to get more involved between the two countries before a major conflict breaks out.

President Trump is taking a victory lap. In a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed, the President pushed back against critics who predicted an economic "meltdown" following his sweeping tariffs on foreign goods. Instead, he’s calling the current climate an "economic miracle."

But is the celebration premature? While the President claims America is now the "hottest" economy in the world, investors are bracing for a looming Supreme Court decision that could dismantle the administration’s entire trade strategy.

Today, Taylor Riggs sits down with Mike Murphy, Founder and Managing Partner at Rosecliff, to discuss whether these tariffs are a long-term win for U.S. security or a house of cards waiting for a judicial ruling.

As federal agents carry out the massive "Operation Metro Surge" in Minnesota, tensions continue between the Department of Homeland Security and local leaders over the scale and tactics of immigration enforcement. In New York, Governor Kathy Hochul is pushing the ‘Local Cops, Local Crimes’ Act to rework how local law enforcement cooperates with federal immigration authorities, a move critics argue compromises public safety. Republican Representative for New York’s 11th District, Nicole Malliotakis, joins the Rundown to discuss these enforcement shifts as well as the current legal battle over her own district.
As political tensions continue to rise, some experts warn the constant outrage and fixation may be taking a real toll on Americans’ mental health. With divisions deepening over immigration enforcement, protests, and heated rhetoric from both sides, the question becomes whether the country can step back from the brink of permanent political anxiety. Psychotherapist and author of the upcoming book Therapy Nation, Jonathan Alpert, joins the Rundown to explain why he says politics is occupying too much space in our lives—and how to begin letting it go.

Earlier this week, we took a deep dive into systemic fraud with former police officer and Minnesota fraud investigator Scott Dexter.

Dexter recently took his findings to Congress, testifying about the rampant misuse of taxpayer funds he uncovered between 2014 and 2019. While his investigations predate the high-profile COVID-era scandals, Dexter argues that the patterns he found established a troubling "blueprint" for the "rampant" fraud we see today.

Dexter spoke with FOX News Rundown host Jessica Rosenthal about how certain scams were carried out and why he is confident that the fraud causing so much outrage in Minnesota right now is just the tip of the iceberg—a much bigger nationwide problem affecting various government programs.

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

Today on The FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our full interview with Scott Dexter to explore fraud in Minnesota, the challenges of addressing it, and why the problem extends far beyond the North Star State.

The latest FOX News Poll reveals that 59% of voters now characterize ICE as "too aggressive"—a 10-point jump since last summer. This shift in public opinion comes as the administration signals a potential de-escalation of neighborhood operations in Minneapolis, a city that has been at the center of the national immigration debate for weeks.

FOX News pollster and political science professor Daron Shaw joins the Rundown to break down the latest polling data, discuss how the President could benefit from a shift in messaging on immigration and the economy, and outline what the GOP should prioritize ahead of this fall’s midterm elections.

Plus, Rep. Greg Murphy (R-NC) joins to discuss why he believes the "corporate takeover" of healthcare is harming Americans and how the President’s latest healthcare initiatives could empower patients while reducing the control of insurance companies.
