  • FOX News Rundown Extra: Sen. Scott Is Ready For A Fight Over The High Court, A Contested Election And Hunter Biden
    All eyes were on the Senate this week, as they gear up for a big fight over filling the vacant Supreme Court seat left by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
    Earlier this week on The FOX News Rundown, host Jessica Rosenthal spoke to Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) about that upcoming political battle and how it would impact the Senate's ability to deal with other serious issues facing the country including the ongoing coronavirus crisis. He made his case for getting a vote on a Justice before Election Day, despite complaints from the Democrats. 
    Our original conversation with Sen. Scott was long and we could not fit all of it in to our original segment. 
    On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear more form Senator Scott and how he expects the Supreme Court fight to play out and help the President in the key battleground state of Florida. He also weighs in on the Senate Republican's corruption investigation of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden and why he feels their probe is appropriate in the middle of an election.

  • FOX News Rundown Extra: Everything You Need To Know About The Supreme Court Battle Ahead
    For over a week, America has speculated and debated who President Donald Trump will select to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. 
    President Trump is expected to name his nominee later today despite Democrats arguing he should not do it so close to Election Day. Republicans, who refused to vote on President Barack Obama's Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland back in 2016 because it was an election year, now argue President Trump is both entitled and obligated to fill the seat.  
    Earlier this week, host Dave Anthony spoke to Fox News chief legal correspondent and 'Fox News @ Night' host Shannon Bream about some of the candidates being floated by the White House. 
    Besides breaking down the backgrounds of some of the frontrunners for the coveted spot, Bream also previewed the nasty political fight ahead and some of the key issues the High Court will be ruling on in the coming months.
    Our interview with Shannon Bream was extensive and we had to make some edits for time. 
    On The FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear our entire conversation with FOX News Anchor Shannon Bream and learn even more about what will be at stake for the entire country when President Trump finally makes his Supreme Court choice.
