The Fox News Rundown

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.

Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) is facing expulsion, after a House Ethics Subcommittee found her guilty of misappropriating millions of dollars in COVID Aid funds to her campaign. She has maintained her innocence however, and a 90-day House “blackout period” ahead of midterms could throw a wrench into the punitive process. FOX News Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins the Rundown to share the latest details of the investigation, explaining the likelihood of an expulsion and the challenges the case poses to Congressional Democrats.

Later, FOX Noticias Anchor Andrea Linares goes over the growing political unrest in Cuba and shares the latest from the trial of deposed Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro.

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.

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.
