President Trump and his hand-picked leader of DOGE, Elon Musk, have set their sights on cutting funding to the U.S. Agency for International Development, known as USAID. On Monday, Trump told reporters he “loves the concept” of helping around the world “but [the organization] turns out to be all radical left lunatics.” Some Democrats have expressed outrage; however, many lawmakers say the truth is that USAID is spending federal dollars wastefully and on the wrong things. Congressman Pete Sessions (R-TX) joins the Rundown to explain why cutting USAID may be necessary and what to make of Trump’s personnel changes at the FBI. Later today, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet with President Donald Trump to discuss Israel's "victory over Hamas," hostages release logistics, and dealing with Iran. Netanyahu is the first foreign leader to visit the White House since President Trump took office last month, highlighting the new administration's priorities. Despite the ceasefire, the Prime Minister is facing intense pressure to resume the war in Gaza, and the U.S. is working to extend the truce. FOX Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst joins from Tel Aviv to preview the meeting and discuss phase two of the negotiations. Plus, commentary by a former investment banker and author of 'You Will Own Nothing,' Carol Roth. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
