    Two Candidates. Two Very Different Media Strategies.
    2024/09/19
    Election Day is getting closer, and the latest national FOX News Poll shows Vice President Kamala Harris with a two-point lead over former President Donald Trump, still within the margin of error. With experts and pundits stressing the 2024 presidential race remains neck-and-neck, voters will be looking to the candidates to hear about solutions to their top issues: economy, immigration, and abortion. Martha MacCallum, anchor and executive editor of The Story with Martha MacCallum, joins the Rundown to break down the current state of the race and the unusual political news cycle that has unfolded this year. The Federal Reserve has cut interest rates by half a basis point, their first time lowering interest rates since the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020. Now, Americans can expect borrowing costs to go down in a few key pain points for consumers: credit card debt, mortgage rates on housing, and even auto and private student loans. U.S. businesses will see benefits too; cheaper borrowing typically encourages companies to hire more and attracts more investors in the stock market. Co-host of The Big Money Show on Fox Business, Brian Brenberg, joins to explain how and when this interest rate cut will be felt by Americans and concerns about a lagging labor market. Plus, commentary from FOX News Contributor and host of the Jason In The House podcast, Jason Chaffetz. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Evening Edition: Can Either Candidate For President Really Lower Housing Costs?
    2024/09/18
    The high cost of housing has become a major campaign talking point for both Forme President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. According to a recent polls, almost two thirds of all Americans including a majority of Republicans and Democrats, think housing costs are too high. What does this week's announcement by the Feds that they will cut interest rates for the first time since the COVID pandemic mean for mortgages and can what any president really do to cut costs to housing? FOX’s John Saucier speaks with Al Lord, the Founder & CEO of Lexerd Capital Management, a real estate firm that primarily sponsors investments in opportunistic multifamily real estate assets throughout the United States, about how the housing market will react to this reduction in interest rates and what can be done to reduce housing costs.

    A Call For "More Insights, Fewer Insults" In Politics
    2024/09/18
    Both presidential candidates are back on the campaign trail following this weekend’s assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. After the first attempt on Trump’s life back in July, when he was nearly killed by a shooter’s bullet at a Butler, Pennsylvania, rally, there were calls for more civility. Still, both sides soon returned to using fiery rhetoric. Will anything change this time? Former Trump campaign senior adviser and FOX News contributor Kellyanne Conway joins the Rundown to discuss the state of the 2024 presidential race, what President Trump’s strategy should be in the closing weeks, and if she thinks the presidential campaign will be toned down. Rare bipartisan agreement has taken shape in Congress on an issue that is now being fought in the courts. Republicans and Democrats are united in the belief that TikTok must be divested from its parent company, ByteDance, which is controlled by and based in China. Fears have arisen that the app, which has been downloaded by millions of users across the United States, poses a national security risk by allowing the Chinese Communist Party access to U.S. TikTok users’ phones and data. Associate Law Professor at the University of Minnesota Alan Rozenshtein joins to discuss the legal case that faces TikTok and the prospect of the company being split from its Chinese partners.

    Evening Edition: Hezbollah Left Reeling After Mysterious Exploding Pagers Attack
    2024/09/17
    In Lebanon, the Iran-backed terror group Hezbollah has suffered an attack targeting their fighters, medics, and associates. The method of attack: the explosion of Hezbollah members’ own encrypted pagers. Early on Tuesday, the pagers Hezbollah fighters carry to communicate were detonated, killing at least 9 and injuring more than 2,700 people in what their own organization calls their “biggest security breach.” Seth Frantzman, Adjunct Fellow at The Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Senior Middle East security analyst at The Jerusalem Post, joins the Evening Edition to break down this complex attack on Hezbollah and why it will likely cause panic and fear within the terror group’s ranks.

  • Is Fiery Rhetoric Inspiring Political Violence?

    Is Fiery Rhetoric Inspiring Political Violence?
    2024/09/17
    A second assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump occurred over the weekend at his West Palm Beach golf course. The suspect, Ryan Routh, was thwarted by the Secret Service, and the gunman now sits in a Florida jail, facing two federal gun charges, with more charges likely for his assassination plot on Sunday. Florida Congresswoman Laurel Lee sits on the House Committee on Homeland Security, and she joined the Rundown to explain how a House task force is tackling this issue of political violence, her belief that former President Trump’s protective detail must be elevated, and the need for American political rhetoric to allow disagreement without violence. The would-be shooter, Ryan Routh, was discovered hiding at the sixth hole of the Trump International Golf Club, wielding an “AK-47 style rifle with a scope.” Routh is a Hawaii resident with a long history of criminal charges and making fiery, politically charged posts online. Now, many are calling to turn down the temperature of our political rhetoric. Former President Trump noted that he feels the Democrats and the mainstream media's characterization of him as a "threat to democracy" has encouraged violence toward him. American University School of Public Affairs Professor Thomas Zeitzoff joins the podcast to discuss how rhetoric influences political violence, how divisive politics have shaped modern America, and what both parties can do to ease tensions this election season.

    The investigation into the second apparent assassination attempt of former president Donald Trump continues. The suspect, Ryan Routh, is in a Florida jail cell and is facing federal gun charges and could face more later. Authorities say Routh was carrying a loaded rifle on the perimeter of Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, where they believe he intended to shoot the former President. While the Secret Service thwarted his apparent deadly plans, questions remain about how anyone was able to get so close to a presidential candidate, who was nearly killed by a shooter’s bullet just two months ago. John Iannarelli, a former FBI Special Agent, joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to discuss what key questions investigators are trying to answer and what the Secret Service can do to better protect politicians and candidates.

    Business Rundown: The Fed Finds Itself "Between A Rock & A Hard Place"
    2024/09/16
    After holding rates at a two-decade high, the time has come for the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates. With the Fed's decision expected on Wednesday, the question remains: how big will the cut be? And will everyday consumers feel any relief? While rate cuts will give businesses crucially lower borrowing costs, everyday consumers could feel the impact too. Those who grapple with payments on credit cards, mortgages, and loans will especially feel the influence of this move from the Central Bank. FOX Business correspondent Lydia Hu speaks with Chief Market Strategist at Siebert Financial, Sean Bonner, about what experts forecast the size of this week's rate cut to be, when Americans will feel the impact, and whether or not the U.S. economy appears headed for the “soft landing” economists are hoping for.
