Episode The Pressure Cooker: How the 2026 Midterms Are Shaping Trump’s Strategy from Michigan to the Persian Gulf
With the midterm elections just weeks away, new FOX News polls and Power Rankings show tightening battleground races, shifting voter enthusiasm, and record fundraising totals as both parties pour millions into get-out-the-vote efforts. FOX News Sunday anchor and host of the ‘Livin' the Bream’ podcast Shannon Bream joins The Rundown to break down key contests like the high-stakes Michigan Senate race, how party leaders are navigating voter dissatisfaction on the campaign trail, and the legal and political fallout surrounding the federal search of Representative Ilhan Omar’s home.
Later, FOX News Chief National Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin takes a look at how the Trump administration is weighing military options against Iran following tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, the looming fight for defense funding on Capitol Hill, and the controversy surrounding U.S. intelligence sharing and Starshield satellite access in Ukraine.
