The Fox News Rundown

After the U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities over the weekend, on Monday Iran began their retaliation. Several Iranian missiles were launched at the U.S. Air Force base in Qatar, which were ultimately intercepted. This week, American lawmakers are seeking further information about these strikes, with some even questioning why this mission occurred without congressional approval. Senator Deb Fischer (R-NE) joins the Rundown to explain the strategic implications of President Trump’s decision, the potential for regime change in Iran, and the ongoing debate over Congress’s role in authorizing military action. America's attack against Iran has only reignited concerns about the threat of cyberwarfare, including the potential for infiltrating social media. Cybersecurity expert and American AI Logistics CEO John Cofrancesco discusses the risk of Iranian hackers targeting American businesses and infrastructure, how America is prepared to respond, and why he believes Russia and China have a vested interest in using misinformation online to divide the U.S. and exploit its conflict with Iran.

Meanwhile, Iran fired missiles at a U.S. Military base in Qatar, but no injuries have been reported.

On Saturday night, the U.S. military attacked several Iranian nuclear facilities in an attempt to eliminate their potential. Following the announcement, President Trump addressed the nation, boasting the U.S. "obliterated" Iran's nuclear capabilities. Some Americans fear this may drag the United States into an open-ended war. However, the Trump administration rejects those claims. Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Rick Crawford (AR-01) joins the Rundown to discuss what inspired the President to act in a swift, secretive manner while enabling the U.S. military to strike the Iranian nuclear facilities. He shares his hope that the strike will embolden the Iranian people to rise against their repressive regime.  President Donald Trump is taking a closer look at infant formula, a topic that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) hasn't thoroughly examined in decades.

Former FDA Commissioner Dr. David Kessler, the author of "Diet, Drugs, and Dopamine: The New Science of Achieving a Healthy Weight," joins to discuss strategies for improving health, the popularity of Ozempic-like drugs, and whether or not food companies are trying to get us addicted to junk food.

As the Senate prepares to vote on the revised version of President Trump’s "Big Beautiful Bill," tension has once again risen over its contents, particularly over language pertaining to the SALT deduction cap.

With the issue of SALT being a sticking point for key blue-state Republicans, the Senate’s tweak may put the bill’s final passage in jeopardy. Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins to discuss the debate over SALT, as well as how members of Congress are reacting to last weekend’s assassination of Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman.
