Earlier this week Hamas Leader Ismael Haniyeh was killed while in Iran for the new president's inauguration, this after Israel launched an air strike last week that killed Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut. Though Israel has not taken responsibility for the Hamas killing, the region is bracing for any retaliatory attacks that may come as a result. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has assured the world Israel is at a high level of preparedness for any scenario — but how badly could this worsen the conflict in the region and move the possibility of a ceasefire further out of reach? FOX News Chief National Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin weighs in. Vice President Kamala Harris's VP shortlist has gotten shorter in the days leading up to the announcement of her pick for running mate. As it stands, the Vice President is vetting candidates from red states, blue states, and swing states alike. However, do running mates matter when it comes to winning presidential elections? And if so, how much? Political Science Professor at the University of Dayton and co-author of Do Running Mates Matter Christopher Devine examines the factors that influence voters' decisions and explains how they could shape the 2024 election.
