Summary

President Trump meets with his national security team today after warning Iran that the 'clock is ticking' to make a deal which ensures Tehran will never obtain a nuclear weapon. Former CIA Chief of Station and FOX News Contributor Dan Hoffman joins the Rundown to discuss the likelihood of renewed military strikes and the potential for "decapitation" strikes against Iranian leadership. Plus, Hoffman warns of a massive Chinese espionage threat and why he says the U.S. must harden private sector defenses against relentless intellectual property theft. Following the sudden overturn of Alex Murdaugh’s murder conviction, South Carolina prosecutors are weighing a high-stakes move to pursue the death penalty in a retrial. Meanwhile, Murdaugh's defense team is filing a civil lawsuit against former court clerk Becky Hill over allegations of rampant jury tampering. Criminal defense attorney and host of the Crime and Justice podcast, Donna Rotunno, joins the Rundown to unpack the strategic calculations happening behind the scenes. She also discusses the latest developments in the case against Luigi Mangione, the man accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. PLUS, commentary by FOX News contributor Joe Concha.
