On Thursday morning, President Joe Biden stated that violent protests aren't welcome in the United States in response to anti-Israel demonstrations continuing to disrupt college campuses. Hundreds of individuals at Columbia University in New York were arrested earlier in the week, and officers in riot gear broke up the encampment at UCLA in a tense overnight exchange. FOX News Sunday anchor and host of the Living the Bream podcast, Shannon Bream, joins to discuss the latest regarding the protests and the second week of former President Donald Trump's New York hush money trial.

Evening Edition: Who Is Funding The Antisemitic Protests?

Revisiting a campaign promise this week, President Biden announced that he would have his administration review federal marijuana restrictions, potentially reclassifying it as a Schedule III substance. Currently listed as a Schedule I substance by the Drug Enforcement Agency, marijuana possession can lead to serious jail time at the federal level. 31 states have already decriminalized marijuana, with supporters touting medical benefits as well as tax incentives for states. Former Governor of Arkansas and former Administrator of the DEA, Asa Hutchinson, joins the Rundown to discuss what reclassification could mean for the legality of the drug, how it could lead to more comprehensive studies of cannabis, and the impact it would have for those charged with possession.
China remains the United States' fiercest competitor. Last month, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Bejing to try and mend strained economic and diplomatic relations. Lawmakers have been increasingly concerned about American dependence on China for their everyday good, with senators working on a plan to bolster trade partnerships with Latin America and the Caribbean. Democratic Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) co-sponsored the bill and joined the podcast to discuss why the U.S. fears a growing conflict with China and why trade relationships outside China will benefit the nation.

Biden Administration Moves To Ease Federal Weed Restrictions

Violence and chaos on college campuses increasing from New York to Texas to California with protesters shouting antisemitic slogans, occupying campus halls and clashing with police. Protestors are demanding their schools divest from any companies based in Israel and condemn the war against the terror group Hamas. The protestors have also been seen on video calling for the 'death of Zionists' and saying things like, 'we are Hamas.' Where did this wave of anti-Israel sentiment rally come from? One watchdog group says that antisemitism never really goes away, it just 'festers.'       

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Liora Rez, Founder and Executive Director of 'StopAntisemitism', who says historically there is always an element of antisemitism but her group says it has gotten worse in the western world.

Evening Edition: Watchdog Group Not Surprised By Wave Of Antisemitism

After weeks of anti-Israel protests, many are still ongoing across college campuses, despite universities warning of consequences for the illicit acts of disorder. Protesters at Columbia University in New York City were threatened with suspension if they did not clear out their encampments by a given deadline. The demonstrating students responded by violating the deadline and barricading themselves inside a campus building. Former Republican Governor of Indiana and former President of Purdue University Mitch Daniels joins the Rundown to discuss universities' responses to the demonstrations, what consequences the students should face, and how they are disrupting other students' college experiences.
The Biden administration postponed its proposed menthol cigarette ban until after the 2024 election. The Food and Drug Administration has attempted to ban the product several times before; however, increased pressure from Big Tobacco and certain members of Congress has delayed the move in the past. Research shows that Black Americans prefer menthol cigarettes to regular ones, and many feel that a ban will have a negative effect on the community. Former Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams joins us to discuss why menthol cigarettes are much harder to quit than regular ones, why minority groups prefer them, and why young Americans gravitate toward e-cigarettes.
