There is a new push by President Trump and GOP lawmakers to strip the citizenship of people who commit fraud, serious felonies or join or supply support to terrorist organizations. The 'Stop Citizenship Abuse and Misrepresentation (SCAM) Act', introduced by Sen. Schmitt (R-MO) and Rep. Emmer (R-MN), would facilitate the denaturalization of individuals who commit serious crimes. The call for this new legislation comes after one naturalized citizen, originally from Lebanon, allegedly rammed his vehicle into a Michigan synagogue and another naturalized citizen, originally from Sierra Leone, allegedly opened fire at Old Dominion University, killing one, in separate incidents that happened on the same day this month. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Gene Hamilton, the Executive Director/Vice President of America First Legal, and former Senior Counselor to the Secretary of Homeland Security and top aide to the DOJ, who explains how the naturalization process, and denaturalization process, can be reformed to better protect us.

Since the launch of Operation Epic Fury over two weeks ago, President Trump has said the U.S. has been very successful targeting Iran's missiles and launchers, as well as its navy and its nuclear program. However, many Democrats and even some Republicans—including some members of the MAGA movement—have pushed back against the President's decision to strike Iran. But one big Trump supporter in this conflict is his former Vice President, Mike Pence. Earlier this week, Vice President Pence joined FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony to discuss Operation Epic Fury. He explained why the President's critics are wrong about their concerns surrounding Israel and the U.S. efforts to dismantle Iran's regime. Despite their falling out after the 2020 election, Pence told the Rundown why he applauds the Commander-in-Chief's objectives and timing. He also discussed his work as the founder of Advancing American Freedom and what the GOP should focus on as the fall midterms approach.

Passing the SAVE America Act remains the President's top legislative priority. But with Democrats largely opposed to the voter requirements bill, pressure is mounting on Senate Republicans to alter filibuster rules to secure its passage.

He also breaks down the recent developments in the Epstein investigation and the ongoing partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security. Later, former Vice President and founder of Advancing American Freedom, Mike Pence, joins to discuss his support for Operation Epic Fury and to address concerns raised by both Democrats and some members of the MAGA movement regarding the conflict.

This week, pro-Iranian hackers claimed responsibility for a devastating cyberattack against U.S. medical device company Stryker. They have also targeted data centers and industrial facilities in both the United States and Israel. As the war with Iran continues, experts are expecting an increase in such cyber-attacks in an effort to degrade the war effort, strain cyber security efforts and cause as much damage to American companies, and the economy as possible. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Michael Crean, Senior Vice President of Managed Services at SonicWall, a comprehensive, AI-driven cybersecurity solutions company that specializes in next-generation firewalls and cloud security, who says the goal is to wear down the war effort and hit Americans at home.

As U.S. and Israeli forces continue to dimmish Iran's military capabilities, Tehran is moving towards more asymmetrical warfare with cyberattacks and the cutting off of the important trade route of the Straight of Hormuz. Iran's proxy groups using low end drones and speedboats to attack on U.S. and other Mideast nation's owned oil and energy infrastructures aim to damage the worked economy. Meanwhile, a U.S. medical device company, Stryker, confirmed they experienced a cyberattack focused on their Microsoft platform that shares patient information and real time data. More cyberattacks, like the one on Stryker, are feared to be coming as politically motivated hackers act like digital sleeper cells. FOX's Jonathan Savage speaks with Bill Udell, former CIA Operations Officer and Analyst, and the Chief Executive Officer, The Americas at Control Risks, bringing expertise in risk management and international operations, who says Iran's low sophisticated weaponry and attack capabilities could still cause major problems.

KSL.com Reporter, Bridger Beal Cvetko explains what played out when it comes to changes within Utah's Judiciary during this legislative session. We explore the expansion of the state Supreme Court, the creation of new three‑judge panels. Were these moves for more transparency or more of a takeover? 

As the U.S. and Israel continue their military operations against Iran, officials say the speed of the campaign is significantly degrading the regime's military capabilities. While Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth argues Iran's missile program is being dismantled with “brutal efficiency,” some lawmakers warn the conflict could escalate following a classified briefing on possible ground deployments. Israel's Ambassador to the U.N., Danny Danon, joins the Rundown to break down why the timing of the operation was "crucial" to prevent Iran from tipping ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads, and addresses reports of Iranian mines being laid in the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial trade pathway.  As the funding stalemate for the Department of Homeland Security enters its fourth week, the effects are hitting the front lines of American travel.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has set up a network of fake social media accounts that have been posting pro-Tehran propaganda across X, Instagram and other social media sites. Just days, if not the initial hours, into the conflict with Iran both Israel and the United States have been targeted by these Iranian internet trolls with videos and images of fake explosions, fake troops and whole lot of use of AI. What could be more damagingly misleading is fabricating stories of who is truly responsible for the death of innocent civilians. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Natasha Hausdorff, British international law specialist, and pro bono legal director of the advocacy group, UK Lawyers for Israel, who says spreading false narratives and flat out lies against Israel and the West is a key strategy by Iran.

This Day in Legal History: Confederate States ConstitutionOn March 11, 1861, delegates of the newly formed Confederate States adopted the Constitution of the Confederate States of America in Montgomery, Alabama. The document closely resembled the United States Constitution in structure, language, and institutional design, reflecting the Confederacy's claim that it was preserving the original constitutional order rather than rebelling against it. But the similarities masked a fundamental and disturbing difference: the Confederate Constitution explicitly protected and entrenched slavery. Unlike the U.S. Constitution, which used indirect language around the institution, the Confederate document openly required that slavery be recognized and protected in Confederate territories. It also prohibited any law impairing the right of property in enslaved people, making the protection of slavery a central constitutional commitment rather than a political compromise.The constitution also attempted to limit certain federal powers, reflecting long-standing Southern arguments about states' rights and suspicion of centralized authority. For example, it restricted tariffs and internal improvements, policies many Southern leaders believed favored Northern industrial interests. The document also changed the structure of the executive branch by providing for a single six-year presidential term instead of allowing reelection. These provisions were intended to prevent what Confederate leaders viewed as excessive federal power or political manipulation. Despite these structural adjustments, the document largely replicated the American constitutional framework while placing slavery at its legal core.The legal significance of the Confederate Constitution lies in how clearly it reveals the central constitutional dispute of the Civil War era. While defenders of the Confederacy often framed secession as a fight over federalism or states' rights, the constitutional text itself makes clear that preserving slavery was a primary objective. By embedding the protection of slavery directly into its governing charter, the Confederacy transformed the defense of human bondage into a foundational legal principle. The document therefore stands as a stark example of how constitutional law can be used not only to secure liberty, but also to entrench injustice.Federal judicial officials announced plans to speed up development of a new electronic case management system after a major cyber breach exposed weaknesses in the courts' existing technology. The decision was discussed during a closed meeting of the Judicial Conference, the federal judiciary's main policymaking body, held at the U.S. Supreme Court building. Judge Michael Scudder, who leads the conference's information technology committee, said recent cyber intrusions made it clear that modernization can no longer proceed at its previous pace. The breach, disclosed in July 2025, raised concerns that foreign actors may have accessed sensitive materials, including sealed files and information about confidential informants. The incident followed an earlier cybersecurity breach involving the federal courts in 2020.In response, the judiciary plans to begin testing components of the upgraded system in six courts during 2026. Officials hope to begin rolling out parts of the new system to federal district courts nationwide next year. Appellate and bankruptcy courts would receive updates afterward. Judiciary leaders now expect that most of the modernization work could be completed within two to three years, a faster timeline than originally planned. The project also aims to improve the search tools used in PACER, the public database that allows users to access federal court filings. Despite long-standing criticism from lawmakers and transparency advocates, the judiciary does not currently plan to eliminate PACER's user fees. Court officials say those fees provide roughly 85 percent of the funding for the modernization effort.US judiciary to fast-track court records system upgrade after hacking | ReutersFederal and state lawmakers are considering measures that could reshape lawsuits involving the weedkiller Roundup as Bayer continues to face large-scale litigation over the product. In Kansas, legislators debated a bill supported by Bayer that would prevent individuals from suing pesticide manufacturers for failing to warn that their products might cause cancer or other illnesses. The proposal is part of a broader legislative strategy by the company, which has supported similar bills in roughly a dozen states. These efforts come as Bayer prepares a proposed $7.25 billion settlement aimed at resolving most of the roughly 65,000 remaining lawsuits alleging that Roundup caused non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Bayer inherited the litigation when it purchased Monsanto for $63 billion in 2018. Since then, the company has faced extensive legal costs and large verdicts, contributing to significant financial losses. Supporters of the Kansas bill argue that without such protections, pesticide manufacturers might remove widely used products from the market or raise prices, which could affect farmers and agricultural businesses. Critics, however, question the Environmental Protection Agency's conclusion that glyphosate—the main ingredient in Roundup—is unlikely to cause cancer and argue the legislation would shield companies from accountability.The debate is occurring alongside other legal developments. The U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments in April about whether federal pesticide law requires Bayer to warn consumers about potential cancer risks. Meanwhile, members of Congress are considering a farm bill provision that would require uniform pesticide labels nationwide, preventing states or local governments from mandating warnings different from those approved by the EPA. A Missouri judge has also given preliminary approval to Bayer's proposed $7.25 billion class-action settlement, with a final decision expected later this year.Bayer takes its multi-front battle on pesticide liability to Kansas | ReutersA federal judge in Manhattan is set to review a proposed agreement that would end the U.S. government's criminal prosecution of Turkey's state-owned Halkbank. The case accused the bank of helping Iran bypass U.S. economic sanctions through financial transactions. Prosecutors and the bank reached a deferred prosecution agreement, which would pause the case while the bank demonstrates compliance with new restrictions. Under the proposal, Halkbank must avoid transactions benefiting Iran and hire an independent monitor to review its sanctions and anti-money-laundering controls.The agreement does not require the bank to pay a fine or admit wrongdoing. If Halkbank complies with the conditions, the criminal charges would likely be dismissed after the monitoring period. Prosecutors have asked the judge to pause the proceedings for 90 days so the bank can begin demonstrating compliance. Although judges generally have limited authority to reject deferred prosecution agreements, the court may still review the deal to ensure it follows established legal precedent.The resolution could ease tensions between the United States and Turkey, which had been strained by the case. U.S. officials indicated that resolving the prosecution also carried diplomatic importance during negotiations related to Turkey's role in securing a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in 2025. The announcement of the deal caused Halkbank's share price to rise sharply. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had previously criticized the case as politically motivated.Judge to weigh Halkbank, US prosecutors' resolution to criminal case | Reuters This is a public episode.

Iran's Assembly of Experts has elected Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the country's new supreme leader. The younger Khamenei, aged 56, was long considered a contender for the position, even before an Israeli strike killed his father, and despite never being elected or appointed to a government position. Khamenei has not been seen publicly for days, and now stands as the head of Iran's theocracy and will have final say over all matters of state.

Iran has — for years — been developing drone technology to share with adversaries of the United States and Israel. And now, Iran's military is using them for attacks in Israel and countries hosting American troops. The first American deaths in the U.S.-Israel military operation against Iran were in a one-way drone attack in Kuwait. The Russia-Ukraine conflict is considered to be the first real drone war, with both sides using them for attacks on a large scale. Their use in military strikes dates back about 20 years. FOX News Rundown host Chris Foster recently spoke with FOX News Contributor and Army Special Operations Intelligence Analyst Brett Velicovich about his experience using drones in combat and how they're changing the battlefield. Velicovich, who is also the founder of the drone company Powerus, talked about the use of drones in Operation Epic Fury and his concerns about terrorists using them anywhere in the world — including the U.S. We often have to trim our interviews during the week, but we thought you'd like to hear the full conversation.

Iranians across their own country, in the United States and across the world have been celebrating the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei after coordinated U.S. and Israeli strikes continue.

Israel has launched a new wave of intense airstrikes on Iran and Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. Israeli forces say they targeted key infrastructure linked to the Iranian government, including a missile launcher in Qom and an air defense system in Isfahan. The IDF is also heavily targeting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the Basij militia, Iran's volunteer paramilitary force, who were both behind the violent, bloody crackdown on protesters in January. FOX's Jonathan Savage speaks with Trey Yingst, chief foreign correspondent for the FOX News Channel, reporting from Tel Aviv, Israel, who says operations to destroy Iranian missile capabilities are a major focus now.

Both President Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth expressing disappointment that some traditional U.S. allies are pushing back on the use of force against Iran while Washington presses forward with its campaign against the terror state. The criticism reflects growing frustration inside the administration that while some European capitals have issued statements of support, operational backing has not matched the rhetoric, raising fresh questions about NATO cohesion at a moment of escalation. Spain refused U.S. permission to use certain bases for strikes on Iran, and Turkey has also criticized the operation and warned of broader regional destabilization. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Victoria Coates, former deputy national security advisor to President Donald Trump, Vice President of the Kathryn and Shelby Cullom Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, and author of 'The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel―and America―Can Win,' who says the lack of support by longtime allies is surprising, and it could have a large effect on the balance power in the world.

As 'Operation: Epic Fury' rolls on with great speed and success against the IRGC, the future Iran could be ruled by a group of factions that haven't agreed until recently. In a historic and unprecedented development, a broad cross-section of the Iranian opposition, including monarchists, liberals, and ethnic minority representatives, has formally united under one umbrella: the Iran Freedom Congress (IFC). It marks the first time since 1979 that such ideologically diverse factions have come together in a single organized front. Representatives from these groups met in London late February and will meet again at the end of March to discuss what an Iran free from Ayatollah rule could look like. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Mehrdad 'Marty' Youssefiani, who served for nearly two decades as chief strategic counselor to Reza Pahlavi, the exiled crown prince and a prominent figure in the Iranian opposition, and Shahryar Ahy, and an advocate for democratic transition in Iran, who says it will take a coalition of opposition groups to stabilize the country.

Oil prices are surging following this weekend's US and Israeli strikes on Iran. Fears mount that the conflict could drag on for weeks. Compounding that concern are reports that Iran is moving to restrict passage in the Strait of Hormuz—the world's most critical oil export route. a prolonged blockade – and the potential targeting of oil facilities -- could create a severe global supply crunch.

The restaurant and food service industry is the nation's second-largest private-sector employer, trailing only healthcare. How this industry performs is vital to the American economy, its millions of workers, and their customers. According to a recent National Restaurant Association survey, 60% of Americans consider dining out essential to their lifestyle, prioritizing it over electronics, clothing, and even entertainment. Yet, a massive disconnect remains: 7 in 10 Americans say they would dine out more if they could afford it, while 60% of restaurant owners reported a drop in foot traffic last year. Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Chris Foster spoke with Dr. Chad Moutray, the National Restaurant Association's Chief Economist, about the state of the restaurant industry and why he is cautiously optimistic about the year ahead. Moutray discusses how dining trends, inflation, and delivery apps are impacting eateries both big and small. While we often have to cut interviews short during the week, we thought you might like to hear the full conversation. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our entire interview with Dr. Chad Moutray so you can learn more about the reality of dining out in today's economy. Learn more about your ad choices.
