The United States and Iran have negotiated a deal following a period of military conflict involving U.S. and Israeli airstrikes, leading to a 60-day ceasefire to allow for continued nuclear negotiations. Under the preliminary agreement, shipping will resume through the critical Strait of Hormuz without Iranian interference. The director of Heritage's Center for National Defense Robert Greenway joins the Rundown to discuss the nuances of the negotiations, Iran's crippled enrichment capabilities, and the role of Israel in regional security.

Arguably the biggest hindrance to advancing Biblically aligned policy in Alaska has been the relentless willingness of a few Republican State Senators and House members to give power to the Democrats in exchange for leadership positions.Two of those legislators, Senator Gary Stevens and Representative Louise Stutes, both from Kodiak, have been leading that charge for a long time. It's been a tiring mantra. Elect Republican majorities. Democrats are put in authority.We now have a legitimate moment to change this trajectory.Gary Stevens is retiring and Louise Stutes is leaving the House to run for his Senate seat. Because she's been giving power to the Democrats just like he has, Stevens has endorsed her.But Stutes has a challenger. And he is gaining traction.Heath Smith, a former Homer City Council member, life long Alaskan and astute observer of what's wrong with our "bi-partisan" ineffective legislative caucuses, is on the show today. Senate District C includes Seward, Homer, Cordova, Ninilchik, Anchor Point and Kodiak among other communities but the implications of this critical Senate race have long term statewide implications.Hope you can join in on our conversation.Support the show

President Trump is in Geneva for the G7 summit, where Vice President Vance is expected to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the Islamic Republic of Iran. While the administration touts this as the "peace deal" that ends decades of hostility, the reality is far more nuanced. In truth, it's a 60-day clock to negotiate the world's most dangerous flashpoints: Iran's nuclear ambitions, missile programs, terror proxies, and control over the crucial Strait of Hormuz. Has the U.S. secured a diplomatic breakthrough, or have we blinked first against a fanatical regime? To break down what this deal really means, Victoria Coates, Vice President of the Heritage Foundation's Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy and former Deputy National Security Advisor during the first Trump administration, joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to discuss the deal, Iran's motives, and what comes next.

Between the Texas data center boom - and Corpus Christi on track to become the first modern city to run completely dry - access to fresh water is a top ticket item for Texans this election year, and also going into the next Legislative session in 2027. Dr. Evgenia Spears, Water Program Coordinator for the Lone Star Sierra Club, joins us for a deep dive on the real state of our state's water supply - and in particular, how seawater desalination fits in as a possible solution.

Militarized drones have drastically changed the battlefield—but the rapidly evolving technology is also creating dangerous new threats right here at home. With massive summer events on the horizon, including the World Cup and the upcoming UFC match on the White House South Lawn, detecting and deterring potential attacks from above has become a top priority for national security officials. Drone expert, former Delta Force intelligence analyst, and FOX News Contributor Brett Velicovich joined FOX News' Lucas Tomlinson on the FOX News Rundown recently to break down how easily adversaries can acquire and weaponize these devices. Velicovich also explains how ongoing global conflicts—like the war in Ukraine and tensions with Iran—are serving as a testing ground for rogue drone tactics, and whether U.S. security officials are truly prepared to protect the homeland.

With 230 seats, they create a legislative gridlock, preventing any laws from passing and forcing Hindenburg to rule by emergency decree. Joseph Goebbels famously remarks that democracy provides its mortal enemies with the tools for its own destruction. Meanwhile, Hermann Göring serves as Reichstagpresident, utilizing his status as a war hero and social elite to bridge the gap between Hitler's movement and Berlin's high society while working to dismantle the democratic system.1940 BERLIN
