Summary

The Iowa caucus is approaching, and candidates have a few short months to persuade voters who will soon cast their ballots. The latest FOX News Power Rankings show that former President Donald Trump remains the GOP frontrunner despite his mounting legal troubles. In key states like Arizona and North Carolina, Trump is polling ahead of incumbent President Joe Biden. Fox News politics co-anchor, anchor of The Story, and host of The Untold Story Podcast, Marth MacCallum, joins the Rundown to discuss where the candidates stand ahead of the third Republican debate next week and why there is growing pressure on some candidates to consider dropping out. FBI Director Christopher Wray warned that anti-semitism in America was reaching “historic” levels, noting that the Jewish population accounted for only 2.4 percent of the U.S. but faced nearly 60 percent of all religious-based hate crimes. In response to the Israel-Hamas war, there has been a surge in anti-semitism, especially on college campuses where some pro-Palestinian rhetoric has descended into hatred towards all Jews. Cornell University is one such campus, where prominent instances of anti-semitism and threats towards Jewish students have grabbed headlines. Simone, a Jewish student at Cornell University, joins to give her perspective on the anti-semitism on college campuses across the country and her hope for better education when it comes to the war and hate speech toward Jews. Plus, commentary by columnist David Marcus. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
