President Trump has been in office for six months of his second term and it has become a much different presidency as he has been able to deliver on campaign promises, get his "big beautiful bill" passed and has had major influence on the world stage. President Trump's second term has had a focus on the economy, cutting government waste and handling the border and illegal immigration in very aggressive ways. This week, President Trump will announce a new artificial intelligence initiative and a new executive order on the technology.

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Mark Meredith, White House correspondent, who says this administration has hit the ground running this time around and doesn't look to be slowing down anytime soon.

The AI race is on. America and China are fiercely competing to become the global leader in artificial intelligence by heavily investing in the power and data centers the technology demands. President Trump emphasized the urgency of surpassing China when he traveled to Pennsylvania last week to attend a summit where many companies pledged further investments in AI. Tristan Harris, Co-Founder of the Center for Humane Technology, joins the Rundown to discuss the race between the U.S. and China, how advancing AI models could impact American workers, and why he believes the industry must consider the potential dangers of this technology as it rapidly advances.

As the 2026 Midterm Elections inch closer, Republicans hope to keep their slim majority in Congress. In the past, the party in power has sometimes resorted to redistricting, also known as gerrymandering, to benefit itself in the upcoming election. President Trump has recently expressed his support for redistricting in Texas. FOX News Pollster and Political Science Professor Daron Shaw joins the podcast to discuss whether the President's desire to create more GOP-friendly districts is a sign that the Midterm Elections won't go in favor of Republicans.

More than three years after Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the fighting continues despite President Trump's push for both sides to make peace since his return to the White House.

Trump has been more critical lately of Russia’s President Putin, who has been launching even bigger aerial assaults.

This week, the President announced a new deal to get more weapons from the U.S. to Ukraine, through NATO, paid for by European allies.

But the fighting is only part of the story.

Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Lisa Brady spoke with Steven Moore, founder of the Ukraine Freedom Project, and Anna Shvetsova, the group's chief operating officer, who grew up not far from the Russian border

The two discussed why American support means so much to Ukrainians, drone warfare, and why they say Christians are 'under siege' in Russian-controlled regions of the country.

The moment that changed an election.

That's how Washington Examiner political reporter Salena Zito remembers the assassination attempt on Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last July.

She was there when shots were fired by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, grazing the ear of the then-former President, critically injuring two men, and killing husband, father, and firefighter Corey Comperatore, who was hit while shielding his family from the gunfire.

Although the Secret Service claims major changes have been made, questions about security failures persist.

We spoke with Zito about her perspectives from that day, the months leading up to it, and her new book, “Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America’s Heartland.”

We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full conversation.

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with journalist Salena Zito on President Trump’s comeback and his secret to winning over the Heartland in last year’s election.

The United States aviation industry is facing widespread shortages in various key job areas including pilots, traffic controllers, and possibly most importantly, mechanics.

Powers speaks to Suzanne Markle, the President and CEO of Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics, an institution for aviation maintenance technology, who says it is key to encourage younger Americans to gain interest in this much needed occupation that is a large part of our economy and an alternate to college-based jobs.
