POTUS is pretending the laws of supply and demand don't apply when it comes to the price of oil. And his long list of conflicting statements on the Strait of Hormuz is not providing any clarity on whether it will reopen to Western vessels anytime soon. But while Rep. Khanna successfully helped create the Epstein coalition, he says most of his Republican colleagues on the Hill are sticking with Trump's war narrative—though with a little less chest thumping. Plus, progressive Squad candidates came up short in Illinois, Joe Kent reportedly gave his resignation letter to Vance before Trump, conflating critiques of Israel with antisemitism is likely going to backfire politically, and why are three million Epstein files still being protected?Rep.

As the Iran war enters its third week, the Trump administration looks like it doesn't know what it's doing: It did not bother to consult U.S. allies before the military operation began but it now wants their help to reopen the Strait of Hormuz; POTUS keeps talking about his great victory even with Marine Expeditionary Forces en route; and the disruption in the oil markets is likely to last for months.

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. 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 complete interview with former Vice President Mike Pence. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In today's episode of the Truth Wanted, Objectively Dan and Coleman Watts work through a classic conspiracy theory caller before taking long-time caller Jon for a refreshing conclusion. Greg in CA is not comfortable calling things conspiracy theories when they are true such as the conspiracy theory of who might be behind the events of September 11, 2001 because of words mentioned in a classroom. It has not been demonstrated that a former POTUS was behind these events, however, these events could have been used to benefit him politically. What happens when you have two or more conspiracy theories? Why would any reasonable or sane person allow an attack to happen? When the world's problems are blamed on a particular race, bad things tend to unfold. If you take the time to get to know people of the race that you think is responsible for all evil things, it makes it harder to believe your conspiracy about that race. How do you explain the bad things that have happened in the world that have nothing to do with Jewish people? When you are more interested in perpetuating your delusional ideas than having an actual conversation, there is no point in continuing the discussion. Just to be clear, we do NOT endorse any views of this caller. Jon in Canada, is convinced that Area 51 conspiracies are bogus because the aliens would not just come all the way here and then fly away. Why would we not be interesting to aliens when there is no apparent life around us? If such a technology existed to allow defiance of time and space, it would be a shame if they crashed in a desert that might have looked like the planet they just abandoned. Thank you for joining us this week!

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.

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.

We sit down with Eleve' Theater Company to unpack the whiplash world of POTUS by Selina Fillinger, a ferocious farce where doors slam, spin cycles faster than the news, and the people holding power together aren't the ones at the podium. Melissa, the director, shares why art should unsettle and how this script spotlights women leading from the shadows—strategizing, firefighting, and finding solidarity under pressure.We trace Eleve's origin story from a string of no's for “Wit” to a mission built on yes: yes to edge, yes to new work, yes to women-centered plays the community rarely sees.

The result is comedy that tells the truth at speed—tragedy accelerated until it's hilarious and uncomfortably real.If you're hungry for smart political theater, community grit, and an ensemble that elevates each other, this conversation will pull you in.

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. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Behnam Ben Taleblu, senior director of the Foundation of the Defense of Democracies' Iran Program, who says while Mojtaba is younger, don't expect any sort of change in a hardliner rule of the country.

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. Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our entire interview with FOX News Contributor and drone expert Brett Velicovich. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Trump cannot enunciate a clear reason for why he's chosen to go to war against Iran, and the administration is not even bothering to coordinate a message that clarifies its objective. While the military campaign appears aimed at regime change, Hegseth denies it is. And instead of speaking directly to Americans, POTUS himself has taken on a Jekyll and Hyde approach to his rationales in a series of private interviews: he's waffled between "freedom," to installing a caretaker regime à la Venezuela, to maybe even revenge. In any event, the United States seems like it's being dog-walked by the Israelis and the Saudis, and the corrupt deals between the Trump family and Gulf Arab states may be a factor.

For just under two hours, Trump in his State of the Union address lied about the state of the economy, the cost of living, his tariffs, and even his immigration policy—claiming that he favors legal immigration while his armed, masked goons grab and imprison people who followed the law. And if Americans didn't hear Trump discuss any real policy proposals in speech, it might be because he's a bit distracted with his quest to capture more media outlets, including his longtime nemesis, CNN. Trump's attempt to silence dissent has become the signature of his presidency.
