Evening Edition: President Trump Weighs US Involvement in Iran
Israel has been scoring victories against Iran in what has now been five days of strikes against the Islamic Republic, with the broader goal of destroying their nuclear weapon capabilities.
So far the American military has only helped Israel to defend itself from Iranian ballistic missiles, but recent moves from President Trump suggest he is weighing U.S. involvement.
Vice President at the Lexington Institute and national security expert Dr. Rebecca Grant joins FOX's John Saucier to explain the focus on Iran's nuclear facilities, President Trump's threat against Iran's leader, and the U.S. demanding "unconditional surrender."

The President Ramps Up Immigration Raids In Big Cities
As anti-ICE protests persist in Los Angeles, California Governor Gavin Newsom is working to regain control of the thousands of National Guard and Marine Corps troops deployed in the city. Both he and LA Mayor Karen Bass have attributed the violence at the demonstrations to the military's presence. Meanwhile, President Trump argues that he has saved the City of Angels from being destroyed. Florida Senator Ashley Moody (R-FL) joins the Rundown to discuss the crackdown on illegal immigration and border security.
The shocking execution of a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband has left politicians across the nation scrambling for answers and assurances about their own personal security details. While authorities have the suspected gunman in custody, this act of political violence strikes an uncomfortably familiar tone to political assassination attempts in previous months. Former federal prosecutor and four-term congressman Trey Gowdy joins the Rundown to analyze the psychological motivations of the suspected killer and addresses the rise in inflammatory rhetoric that may be fueling these acts.
Plus, commentary from FOX News Legal Analyst Gregg Jarrett.

Evening Edition: Is Regime Change In Iran A Reality?
It's been less than a week since direct hostilities ignited between Israel and Iran.
Israel’s government claimed Iran was too close to achieving nuclear weapons and that it needed to commence a plan to stop them since negotiations with the U.S. seemed to go nowhere.
Since the fighting began late last week, we've seen Israel, using both air strikes and commandos on the ground, eliminate key leaders in Iran’s government, military, and domestic police forces, as well as their top nuclear scientists. And then came the destruction of government buildings, military bases, air force assets, and then attacks on Iran’s infamous nuclear development sites. Some are rendered destroyed or inoperable.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says they've set back Iran’s nuclear ambitions for a long time. But Iran has struck some blows, firing ballistic guided missiles at Israeli population centers. They've damaged or destroyed homes, killing people inside.
Daniel Flesch, a Senior Analyst with the Heritage Foundation, a former IDF soldier, and former Senior Advisor at Israel’s Permanent United Nations Mission, joins the FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition to discuss Israel’s effort to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program and whether this operation can lead to regime change.

Renewed Calls To Quell Political Violence
On Saturday evening, thousands congregated in Washington D.C. to celebrate 250 years of the U.S. Army; this occurred amidst an escalated military conflict in the Middle East between Israel and Iran. On Thursday night, Israel made a strike on the Iranian regime and its nuclear sites; continuing strikes between the two nations have followed. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-09) joined the Rundown to discuss attending the army parade and his concern for Americans' and politicians' safety.
Earlier this month, President Donald Trump signed the "Unleashing American Drone Dominance" executive order to enshrine American leadership in the development, commercialization, and export of drones. Drones can be used in all facets of life, and Michael Healander, founder and CEO of Airspace Link, joins to break down the executive order and share why drones are beneficial.
