The Fox News Rundown

Whether it's dining out, shopping, or even just driving around, Americans are having to change their habits to adjust to soaring inflation costs. With gas prices reaching a record-high, many Republicans are urging President Biden to incentivize oil production. Senator Todd Young (R-IN) joins the Rundown to discuss why he believes the President should ease regulations to combat surging inflation prices, why he believes the U.S. must provide aid to Ukraine, and how his bipartisan bill could lead to more manufacturing in the U.S. and less in China.

On Tuesday, President Biden visited Buffalo to memorialize the victims of the recent mass shooting where 10 people were killed at a supermarket in a domestic terror attack. The President also spoke out against the racism that motivated the incident.

Jonathan Turley, Fox News Contributor and Law Professor at George Washington University joins the Rundown to discuss how New York’s red flag laws are intended to to function and how Supreme Court rulings on gun cases may shift laws across the nation.

Following the leak of the Supreme Court draft opinion that would apparently overturn Roe v. Wade, pro-choice activists have been conducting protests outside the homes of Supreme Court justices including Justice Samuel Alito, the author of the draft.  

Republicans have condemned their actions, saying their intimidation of Justices is unethical and illegal. And while Democrats have voiced their support for the protesters, who they say are simply exercising their First Amendment rights, Senate Democrats did vote for a bipartisan bill that expands security protection to the immediate family members of the high court.

However, the House has yet to act and there is still pressure on Congress to do more.

Esther Salas, a Federal Judge for the District Court in New Jersey, is one of those who say the government is not doing enough to protect judges. 

Earlier in the week, she joined host Dave Anthony on the Rundown to discuss the need for security for Supreme Court Justices and what actions Congress must take.

Salas also discussed the tragic story of how she was targeted for doing her job and lost her son during an attack at her family's home. 

Due to time limitations, we could not include all of the conversation in our original segment. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear the entire discussion with Judge Esther Salas. You'll hear more about why she believes it is vital for our democracy to protect judges and how she remains hopeful despite the heartbreaking loss.

The Pennsylvania primary will take place this Tuesday, with many looking closely at the GOP Senate race.

For months, much of the focus has been on candidates Dr. Mehmet Oz and David McCormick, who have been the clear frontrunners.

But in just the past few days, Kathy Barnette has surprised the political world as she has dramatically risen in the polls and created a virtual three-way tie.

Barnette also discussed why she revealed at a recent debate that she was a byproduct of rape and how her unique and challenging background helped shape her views on abortion and other issues.

Due to time limitations, we could not include all of the conversation in our original segment. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear the entire discussion with U.S. Senate Candidate Kathy Barnette and hear more of her perspective on the race and her life story.
