Summary

With midterm elections just over two months away, Republicans are already planning for potential oversight actions. Those plans include questions about the origins of COVID-19, as well as potential reform in the intelligence community over the Mar-a-Lago raid, should the GOP regain control of Congress in 2023. Ranking member of the House Oversight Committee Rep. James Comer (R-KY) joins Mike Emanuel on the FOX News Rundown to give insight into those plans. Plus, Comer discusses what he believes the Biden administration got wrong both legally and economically on the student debt relief plan. Then, Comer explains why the federal government’s clean energy initiatives, specifically in regard to electric cars, hurt the United States’ ability to compete with China. The drug fentanyl has become one of the leading causes of death for American adults and now this overdose crisis is impacting adolescents as well. Last year, one study found that 77 percent of all teen overdose deaths were due to fentanyl, with many of these teens seeking pills that have unknowingly been laced with fentanyl. Recently the U.S. Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody joins the Rundown to explain how insecurity on the southern border is driving rising fentanyl overdoses in the United States and the importance of parents educating themselves and having conversations with their children about the dangers of fentanyl Learn more about your ad choices.
