Last week, President Donald Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who agreed to begin high-level talks in Saudi Arabia to begin discussing a possible end to Russia's war on Ukraine. On Monday, several European countries called an emergency meeting in Paris to forge their own strategy. Former United States Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations and Former US Ambassador to NATO, Kurt Volker, joins to preview today's talks, explain why Ukraine isn't directly involved, and share the concerns of the European allies.
The Department of Government Efficiency (known as DOGE) is turning its attention to the Pentagon this week. President Trump said he expects Musk’s DOGE to find billions of dollars of fraud and waste within the Pentagon. While Democratic and Republican lawmakers disagree on much, there is bipartisan consensus that major inefficiencies exist within our defense spending. FOX News Chief National Security correspondent Jennifer Griffin explains why DOGE must be careful and purposeful with their budget cuts when it affects our national security.

Extra: Should America Go 'Penniless'?
One of President Donald Trump's many actions in his first three weeks included directing the US Treasury Department to stop minting new pennies.
There’s been a movement to get rid of the pennies of years, partly because, according to
some estimates, the one-cent coin costs nearly four cents to produce, and the US Mint reported they lost $85.3 million last year making them.
Former Director of the United States Mint, Philip Diehl, joined Dave Anthony to
discuss why he’s long been advocating for getting rid of the penny,
Diehl explained how the change could impact the American economy. He also discussed why there’s a case to get rid of the nickel and why coin and paper currencies will serve a purpose despite the popularity of crypto.
We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like

Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Former
Director of the United States Mint, Philip Diehl, allowing to learn more about
