Senate Majority Leader Senator Mitch McConnell, history's longest serving leader of the Senate, has announced he will be leaving that position come this November. Senator McConnell, who just turned eighty four, maybe best remembered for blocking President Obama's pick for filling a Supreme court vacancy back in 2016 and shifting lower-courts to a more conservative ideology. And now the question is, who will take his position later this year?   

FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Jared Halpern, FOX News Audio Washington correspondent and host of the 'From Washington' podcast, about Senator McConnell's long legacy and who may replace him.

Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) joins the Rundown to discuss Republican strategy heading into the election, what races he'll be focusing on in the Senate, and what issues will be on the minds of voters in November.

Republicans Look To Flip The Senate In 2024

The Builders Movement, a global initiative addressing the "us vs. them" mentality, is working to bring people together during this divisive time.
KIND Snacks founder, Daniel Lubetzky, and co-founder of the Muhammad Ali Center, Lonnie Ali, are members of Builders and they both joined host Dave Anthony on the FOX News Rundown to discuss the organization’s mission.
They discussed how to find common ground on issues even as divisive as the war in the Middle East, why extremist ideologies are given so much attention, and how civil dialogue could build a bridge between human beings on each side.
Lubetzky shared his experience being the child of a holocaust survivor and how the recent examples of public antisemitism have impacted him.
They also discussed how the legacy of Lonnie Ali’s late husband, Muhammad Ali, was an inspiration to them.

Donald Trump's former lawyer and the prosecution's star witness, Michael Cohen, testified at the former U.S. president's criminal trial this week in New York. Cohen, who is believed to be the only one who can concretely link the former president to the crimes prosecutors accuse him of, testified that the reimbursements the former president made to him for paying adult film star Stormy Daniels were not a legal retainer, despite statements that say otherwise. While Cohen reportedly kept his cool on the stand, does the jury believe him? Attorney and former New York County Assistant District Attorney Elliot Felig joins to discuss the latest on Trump’s hush money trial and weigh in on how he thinks Cohen has done on the stand so far. 
It's been a long road for North Carolinians when it comes to voter identification law -- as the question of whether voters are required to have a photo ID has been brought to both state and federal courts in recent years. Now, this legal tug-of-war is back in headlines after the case was re-opened in court last week, as a federal judge who once blocked the law agreed to hear formal arguments from those who believe the law is discriminatory. To break it all down, FOX News Contributor Andy McCarthy joins to discuss why this case presents far more of 'a societal problem than a legal problem,' how much the law has impacted voting in North Carolina, and what he believes the final verdict will be in the case.

Traditions are being thrown out the window left and right as former President Donald Trump accepted current President Joe Biden's offer to debate at the end of June...despite their respective parties having officially nominated neither. The first 2024 Presidential debate is set for June 27th at CNN's studios in Atlanta, more than two weeks before former President Trump will officially accept the Republican nomination for President at the GOP Convention and more than a month before President Biden officially claims his re-nomination. Former Deputy Chief of Staff and Senior Advisor to President George W. Bush and FOX News Political Analyst Karl Rove reacts to this week's debate news and weighs in on the state of the race. 
 
On Tuesday, West Virginia voters made their choice for who will vie for the senate seat left open by the retiring moderate Democrat Joe Manchin. Manchin is currently the only Democrat elected to statewide office in West Virginia. Manchin's pick to succeed him, Glenn Elliot, did win the Democratic primary. But the Republican primary was won by Jim Justice, a popular governor with the backing of former President Trump. The outcome makes West Virginia one of - if not THE most likely flip of a contested Senate race. Host of Talkline with Hoppy Kercheval on West Virginia's MetroNews, Hoppy Kercheval, joins to discuss the Senate race in the Mountain State, the senate race in neighboring Maryland, and the GOP's hopes to take control of the Senate.
