The Fox News Rundown

As U.S. and Israeli forces continue to dimmish Iran's military capabilities, Tehran is moving towards more asymmetrical warfare with cyberattacks and the cutting off of the important trade route of the Straight of Hormuz. Iran’s proxy groups using low end drones and speedboats to attack on U.S. and other Mideast nation's owned oil and energy infrastructures aim to damage the worked economy. Meanwhile, a U.S. medical device company, Stryker, confirmed they experienced a cyberattack focused on their Microsoft platform that shares patient information and real time data. More cyberattacks, like the one on Stryker, are feared to be coming as politically motivated hackers act like digital sleeper cells.

FOX’s Jonathan Savage speaks with Bill Udell, former CIA Operations Officer and Analyst, and the Chief Executive Officer, The Americas at Control Risks, bringing expertise in risk management and international operations, who says Iran's low sophisticated weaponry and attack capabilities could still cause major problems.

Operation Epic Fury continues as the Trump administration vows to dismantle Iran’s military infrastructure and end the regime’s decades-long threat. However, critics are questioning the timing of the strikes and whether the President has a clear exit strategy. Former Vice President Mike Pence joins us to discuss why he supports the decision to strike, what the U.S. objectives should be, and how this operation aligns with the "America First" agenda.

President Trump is highlighting recent economic gains to ease concerns about the complicated picture emerging for U.S. workers and global markets. Anthony Chan, Global Chief Economist for Chan Economics, joins the Rundown to explain why he remains optimistic despite a sluggish jobs report, rising geopolitical tensions, and the rapid shift toward artificial intelligence. He also weighs in on the economic fallout of the conflict with Iran—and why the potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global trade artery, could be the single greatest threat to gas prices.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has set up a network of fake social media accounts that have been posting pro-Tehran propaganda across X, Instagram and other social media sites. Just days, if not the initial hours, into the conflict with Iran both Israel and the United States have been targeted by these Iranian internet trolls with videos and images of fake explosions, fake troops and whole lot of use of AI. What could be more damagingly misleading is fabricating stories of who is truly responsible for the death of innocent civilians.



FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Natasha Hausdorff, British international law specialist, and pro bono legal director of the advocacy group, UK Lawyers for Israel, who says spreading false narratives and flat out lies against Israel and the West is a key strategy by Iran.

As the U.S. and Israel continue their military operations against Iran, officials say the speed of the campaign is significantly degrading the regime’s military capabilities. While Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth argues Iran’s missile program is being dismantled with “brutal efficiency,” some lawmakers warn the conflict could escalate following a classified briefing on possible ground deployments. Israel’s Ambassador to the U.N., Danny Danon, joins the Rundown to break down why the timing of the operation was "crucial" to prevent Iran from tipping ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads, and addresses reports of Iranian mines being laid in the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial trade pathway. 

As the funding stalemate for the Department of Homeland Security enters its fourth week, the effects are hitting the front lines of American travel. With TSA workers missing paychecks just as Spring Break begins, wait times in major hubs like Atlanta and Houston are skyrocketing—sometimes reaching four hours. Former TSA Director of Security Operations Keith Jeffries joins the Rundown to discuss the risks created by massive airport crowds, delays and the impossible choices facing federal workers who can no longer afford childcare or gas to get to work.

President Trump says the war with Iran could end 'very soon,' adding the operation timeline is “way beyond expectation in terms of result this early.” Both, the United States and Israel continue to pound targets across Iran, and PM Netanyahu vowed that Israel will not stop. President Trump has also told FOX News that he is "not happy" about Mojtaba Khamenei being named as the next Supreme Leader, saying he doesn't believe the new leader can live in peace.



FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with John Spencer, serves as the Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute, and Co-Director of the Urban Warfare Project, who says all enemies of the United States should see the speed in which Iran's military has been decapitated as a warning to them.
