The Republican Pitch To Bring Down Health Care Costs
With the government shutdown now over, the next battle in Congress is healthcare. Rising premiums, questions about extending ACA subsidies, and concerns about access and affordability are all back on the table. Missouri Congressman Jason Smith, Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, joins the Rundown to explain why Republicans want broader reforms beyond Obamacare exchanges, how they hope to lower costs for every American, and what policy fights may be coming as both parties head toward the 2026 midterms.
After years on the front lines of major cases, a former FBI special agent says the Bureau is no longer the agency she joined. Fox News Contributor, Nicole Parker, joins the Rundown to explain why she believes the FBI has become divided, what she witnessed inside the culture of the Bureau, and why restoring trust, focus and accountability is critical for its future.
Plus, commentary from FOX News Digital columnist David Marcus.

Extra: The Dangerous World Of 'Scambaiting' And Busting Internet Fraudsters
One in three Americans faced a financial scam in 2024, according to a recent Bankrate survey. As technology advances, it is growing easier to fall victim to cyber scams.
And with the rise of AI technology and increasing involvement of organized crime organizations, the financial and emotional threat is only becoming more common and harmful.
However, some folks are fighting back.
‘Scambaiters’ make videos of themselves wasting scammers' time and exposing them and their methods -- sometimes, to law enforcement.
Ashton Bingham and Art Kulik have been doing it on their YouTube channel for ten years.
Ashton Bingham and Art Kulik joined FOX News Rundown host Chris Foster to discuss why they decided to target scammers and how they do it.
The hosts of FOX Nation’s Scammed: Getting Even explained how scammers operate, and why busting up their schemes can be a dangerous job.

From Washington: Shutdown’s End Reopens Old Wounds
The Democrats who voted to reopen the government earlier this week have stirred up turmoil within their party, with many on the left viewing it as a betrayal for failing to extend COVID era Affordable Care Act subsidies. Republicans, meanwhile, are up in arms over a last-minute inclusion to the funding package, which would allow senators who allegedly had their phones tapped to sue the federal government for hundreds of thousands of dollars. FOX News Digital Congressional Correspondent Liz Elkind joins the Rundown to unpack the drama on Capitol Hill, and what to look out for as the government gets back to business.
Later, Philip Diehl joins to discuss the future of the penny, after the mint officially ceased its production earlier this week.

Extra: A Most Unusual White House Meeting
On Monday, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa became the first Syrian leader to visit the White House.
That alone would have been noteworthy ...
But Al-Sharaa, who assumed leadership of Syria after leading a rebel group that overthrew the Assad regime, was previously a militant in an al-Qaeda-linked group and was captured by American forces while fighting against the U.S. in Iraq in 2006.
However, the once anti-American extremist is now working with the Trump Administration on securing his country and the region.
Earlier this week, FOX News senior correspondent Benjamin Hall joined the Rundown's Dave Anthony to discuss Monday’s extraordinary White House meeting, President Ahmed al-Sharaa's "rough past" and his unusual journey to the Oval Office. Hall, who has covered Syria for more than a decade and has traveled there, discussed whether America should trust al-Sharaa and what a friendly relationship between Syria and the U.S. could mean for the region.
We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.
Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with FOX News senior correspondent Benjamin Hall.
