The Fox News Rundown

With six weeks until Election Day, Republican nominee for Governor Steve Hilton joins the FOX News Rundown: Extra as he attempts to pull off a historic upset in California. Trailing Democratic opponent and former Biden Cabinet official Javier Becerra in the polls, Hilton argues that decades of one-party rule have led to a record-high cost of living, top-tier unemployment, and a massive business exodus.

In this full, uncut interview, Hilton outlines his practical campaign platform—including cutting working-class taxes, lowering gas prices to $3 a gallon by unleashing domestic energy production, abolishing the DMV, and creating an "Office of Fun and Freedom" to roll back excessive nanny-state regulations. He also addresses Republican turnout strategies, appeals to independent voters, and his upcoming debate against Becerra.

While there’s been plenty of debate and concern over the rise of AI and the threat of it going rogue, workers have also long worried about how the technology might replace human jobs.

It isn’t just white-collar workers who are on edge—musicians also fear AI could destroy their livelihoods.

Recently on the FOX News Rundown, country music star John Rich, half of the hit duo Big & Rich, joined Dave Anthony to discuss how AI threatens both legendary artists and those just starting out.

Rich explains how prevalent AI-generated music has become, how thousands of tracks rip off copyrighted material, and why Congress needs to step in to protect the music industry.

We often have to edit our interviews for time during the week, but we wanted to share this complete conversation.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a defiant speech at the UN Thursday calling allegations of Israeli genocide in Gaza false and the “biggest lie of the century.” Dozens of delegates walked out of the hall as Netanyahu began to speak, including many Arab countries, but the ones that stayed - United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Morocco - have normalized relations with Israel through the Abraham Accords. The mass exit stood in stark contrast to the delegates' applause for Palestine Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with EJ Kimball, the director of policy and strategic operations for the U.S. Israel Education Association, who says the walkout was political theater for radicalized countries who can't admit Israel is a force for peace in the region, and the White House should continue to push other regional and Muslim-majority countries to join the Accords.
