The Fox News Rundown

President Donald Trump says the United States is targeting Iran's economy with an unprecedented wave of new sanctions in what is labeled 'Operation Economic Outcast'. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the new sanctions imposed on Tehran focus on the country's five "most vital lifelines" financially. Iran's head of national security says Tehran will "retaliate in a seismic manner" to any sanctions and will consider any country supporting sanctions to be committing an act of war.

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with EJ Kimball, the director of policy and strategic operations for the U.S. Israel Education Association, who says the new sanctions have a focus on cutting funds to the IRGC, which could lead to the collapse of the regime.

We’re less than 75 days away from the midterm elections that will determine who controls the House and Senate. Recent primary outcomes and shifting political dynamics have turned six Senate races into toss-ups, according to the latest FOX News Power Rankings.

Earlier this week on the FOX News Rundown, host Dave Anthony spoke with FOX News Contributor and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove about the battleground landscape and some of the high-stakes contests, including those in Alaska, Texas, and Michigan.

Rove explains how far-left candidates succeeding in key primaries and shifting voter demographics could impact the outcome in November.

Finally, Rove—the architect of former President George W. Bush's gubernatorial and presidential campaigns—also discusses what he thinks the GOP should do in the closing months and what former President Trump should do—and not do—to help his party.

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 entire interview with Karl Rove.
