President Trump Hits The Road To Talk ‘Affordability’
President Trump is heading to Pennsylvania to defend his economic record and push back on what he calls a Democratic “con job” over affordability, as new polls show voters remain deeply pessimistic about the economy. He is also rolling out a $12 billion assistance package for farmers, funded by tariffs, to help ease food prices. FOX Business host Charles Payne joins the Rundown to break down what the numbers really show and how much of the affordability fight is economics versus election-year politics.
When former Georgia Congressman Doug Collins became the 12th Secretary of Veterans Affairs, he aimed to implement changes that prioritize veterans. Sec. Collins joins the Rundown to discuss the changes he has made, how they're working closer with the Department of War, and working on innovative ways to address veteran suicides and the other mental health challenges retired soldiers face after their service is complete.
Plus, commentary from Jason Rantz, the host of The Jason Rantz Show.

Evening Edition: President Trump Increases Push For Red State Redistricting
President Donald Trump is turning up the pressure on various governors and Republican Party members to pass congressional redistricting. A lot of heat is being put on Indiana Republican state senators who are resisting the push for the red state to pass redistricting, but just last week the Supreme Court upheld the new map that was set in Texas. Illinois and Maryland, two blue states, and Virginia, where Democrats control the legislature, are also seriously considering redistricting.
FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Jared Halpern, FOX News Audio White House correspondent, political anchor and host of the 'From Washington' podcast, who breaks down the various redistricting battles and their possible impact.

Business Rundown: Will The Fed Grant Investors' Christmas Wish This Week?
You could call this an early Christmas gift. A delayed September PCE report was released last week, focusing on core inflation—a price measure closely watched by the Federal Reserve. It came in cooler than expected, which is encouraging for the Trump administration, as it has been pushing the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates.
While attention is on this week’s rate decision, eyes are already on next year. You could say the current Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, is on Trump’s naughty list, and the nominee to replace him will likely be named in early 2026. What will that mean for the direction of monetary policy?
Kenny Polcari, the Chief Market Strategist at Slatestone Wealth, shares insights on what investors are expecting from the Fed this week, who they think may replace Powell, and what to anticipate from the markets in the final weeks of 2025.

Extra: "When The Badge Becomes The Target"
A House Homeland Security Committee hearing turned tense earlier this week as lawmakers clashed over the source and impact of violent rhetoric toward law enforcement.
Democrats focused on the events of January 6th and the conduct of ICE agents during raids, while Republicans and union officials warned that rising threats, including last week’s fatal shooting of two National Guard soldiers in Washington, D.C., indicate that officers are facing unprecedented danger.
They also highlighted how the rhetoric and the risk of violence are impacting police recruitment and retention.
Colorado Congressman and former police officer Gabe Evans joins the Rundown’s Jessica Rosenthal following Wednesday’s hearing to discuss the challenges and dangers law enforcement is currently facing.
Rep. Evans explained why he believes there are consequences to this rhetoric and how it's affecting recruitment, safety, and public trust.
