Summary

President Trump is set to speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin today to discuss a possible end to the war in Ukraine. Last week, Ukraine agreed to a thirty-day ceasefire, but Russia rejected the terms proposed by Ukraine. FOX News Senior Correspondent and host of the Searching For Heroes podcast, Benjamin Hall, joins to preview the likely sticking points in the Ukraine-Russia peace talks and to discuss his new book, “Resolute: How We Humans Keep Finding Ways to Beat the Toughest Odds.” In the first few months of his second term, the President has been making good on his campaign promise to end Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives across the federal government. Now that President Trump has signed executive orders steering the federal government away from the policies, the business world is following his lead, with dozens of companies reversing course on DEI. Conservative activist Robby Starbuck joins the Rundown to discuss how the movement began long before President Trump took back the White House and why he believes there has been such an overwhelming show of support to end DEI initiatives and step away from a "woke" agenda. Plus, commentary from the host of “Tomi Lahren is Fearless on Outkick,” Tomi Lahren. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
