The Fox News Rundown

Political division in the U.S. is worsening, with Americans segmenting further from each other and disagreement becoming more prevalent than unity. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) has a goal to dispel this negativity and reflect what he believes is the true identity of America in his new book, “America: A Redemption Story.” Fox News’ Dana Perino sits down with Sen. Scott on the Rundown to discuss some key stories he shares from his humble beginnings in South Carolina, the people who helped him in times of need, and his path to the U.S. Senate. He explains the negative impact of polarization and partisan media and the influence unity can have in building a more resilient nation.   August marks the one-year anniversary of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan after 20 years of war. The move was highly controversial as the Taliban quickly seized power in Kabul following the collapse of the Afghan government. As chaos escalated, a suicide bomber attacked the Hamid Karzai International Airport, killing U.S. service members and Afghan civilians alike. Zainullah "Zak" Zaki was able to flee the country. He served as a translator for Marine Major Tom Schueman during the war in Afghanistan. They join the Rundown to discuss their story from their new book, "Always Faithful," the Taliban's ongoing threats against Zak, and why they're tirelessly working to ensure secure U.S. citizenship for Zak.   Plus, commentary from co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend and Host of ‘The Will Cain Podcast’ Will Cain.  Learn more about your ad choices.
