Summary

After the fall of Kabul last year, many of the Afghans who risked their lives helping the U.S. military were left behind during the evacuation. Abdul Wasi Safi was one of them. Fearing he would be killed by the Taliban, he fled and embarked on a dangerous journey across multiple continents. He eventually reached the U.S.-Mexico border, where he hoped to find safety and a new life. Instead, he was arrested for illegal entry and now could be deported back to Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. Special guest host Dana Perino joins the Rundown and speaks with the CEO of The Independence Fund, Sarah Verardo, about her group’s effort to help Abdul Wasi Safi, why going back to Kabul would mean certain death, and how she and other veterans services organizations are advocating for the Biden administration to better help our Afghan allies. The internet has revolutionized the world of entertainment, and with it the world of advertising and marketing as well. In fact, influencers and their endorsements can be quite lucrative for brands, with a recent survey from Morning Consult finding 45% of Gen Z respondents had purchased a product because an influencer or celebrity promoted it. As online content creators continue to gain power in the digital space, some are wondering, how does one even begin their content creation career? Social media phenomenon and meme creator Tank Sinatra joins the Rundown to discuss how a meme creator makes a living, why influencing has become such an attractive career path, and how viral content has transformed the advertising space. Plus, commentary from FOX Nation host Tom Shillue. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
