A Coming Resurgence Of Islamic Extremism?

The Fox News Rundown

On Wednesday, two violent events unfolded that are now being investigated by the FBI as acts of terrorism. First, a deadly truck attack in New Orleans, and then later, a Tesla Cybertruck explosion right outside of Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. Authorities identified the suspect in the Louisiana truck attack as Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a U.S. citizen from Texas and Army veteran who was inspired to carry out this mass killing by the Islamic State. Former National Security Council Senior Director and managing director of Beacon Global Strategies, Michael Allen joins the Rundown to explain how terror can spread through radicalization in the U.S. and the tools we must use to detect extremist threats.

The 119th Congress begins today, with the GOP controlling both the House and the Senate. However, before lawmakers can get down to business, they must elect a new speaker. However, some Republicans are wary of re-electing Congressman Mike Johnson (R-LA). A delayed vote could impede the certification of the 2024 election. Republican strategist and co-founder of South and Hill Strategies Colin Reed joins to break down what happens if the vote goes longer than expected.
