Summary

Though we still have nine months until the 2022 midterms, many pundits already predict a difficult path ahead for Democrats. As the Biden administration grapples with falling approval ratings, a stalled ‘Build Back Better’ plan, and foreign hostilities across the globe, Republicans are optimistic they can gain ground in Congress. Anchor and Executive Editor of Fox News Channel’s ‘The Story’ and Fox News Politics Co-Anchor Martha MacCallum joins to discuss what topics we’re likely to see voters prioritize in the midterms, what President Biden can do to regain voters’ trust, and why both parties are raising several million dollars leading up to November. This Sunday marks the 64th running of the Daytona 500. The race serves as opening day for the NASCAR Cup Series and is seen as the sport’s Super Bowl. Fox Nation has entered the race by sponsoring the Spire Motorsports team and documented their preparation on their docuseries, “Road to Daytona.” Kevin Bellicourt, crew chief of the team, joins the Rundown to discuss the introduction of Next-Gen Cars means for the future of NASCAR, the training and preparation drivers must undergo, and the impact that the Daytona 500 had on him growing up. Don't miss the good news with Tonya J. Powers. Plus, commentary by Jimmy Failla, host of "Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
