President Trump and Homeland Security officials say the move is part of an effort to tighten vetting and shift the burden of proof for those already in the U.S., including refugees admitted during the Biden years. Ken Cuccinelli, former USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) director and current Senior Fellow for Homeland Security, joins the Rundown to explain what these new rules mean for Afghan refugees and immigration policy heading into the new year.

Republicans Face An Unexpected Test In Tennessee
Voters in Tennessee’s Seventh Congressional District are heading to the polls for a race that has unexpectedly become competitive in what was once considered a reliably Republican seat.

Meanwhile, her Republican opponent, Matt Van Epps, is relying on President Trump’s endorsement to hold the district and prevent the GOP's slim House majority from shrinking. Van Epps joins the Rundown to discuss why he believes he will win today's special election and how he's coping with the pressure of the race.

Evening Edition: The Mossad's Role in Shaping Global Espionage
Israel's spy agencies are the stuff of legend.
From domestic intelligence gathering to rooting out terrorism in its own backyard, to disrupting and dismantling Iranian-backed terrorist armies entrenched in neighboring Arab states, Israel has led the world in both covert and overt operations.
One leader of its foreign intelligence agencies, the Mossad, had the foresight to see how gathering intelligence and using it to act quickly could benefit not only Israel but also its allies and, at times, its adversaries, and could be a political tool used to forge peace.
His name was Meir Dagan. Not only did his leadership provide Israel and allies like the United States with the means to stop conflict, but his work and ideas also helped reshape how the world gathers and uses intelligence. His story is just now being made known.
Samuel Katz, a New York Times bestselling author, joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to discuss the Mossad’s incredible history and his new book, a biography of Meir Dagan titled 'The Architect of Espionage'.
