President Biden addressed the nation yesterday, unveiling more executive action on the border. On the 12th anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, the President announced a new program that would grant legal status and citizenship to an estimated 500,000 illegal immigrants married to U.S. citizens. Former acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and executive director and chair of the Center for Homeland Security and Immigration at the America First Policy Institute, Chad Wolf, joins the Rundown to discuss how President Biden’s executive order impacts immigration and what more can be done on border policy to stem the flow of illegal migrants.
The first presidential debate with President Biden and former President Trump is next week in Atlanta. However, the Biden campaign has already ramped up the personal attacks against his opponent, zeroing in on the fact that former President Trump is now a convicted felon. The ad is running in swing states, aiming to persuade undecided and independent voters. Democratic strategist and former Biden campaign surrogate Kevin Walling breaks down the Biden team’s strategy and the President’s current standing among minority voters.
Plus, commentary by co-host of FOX and Friends Weekend and host of The Will Cain Show, Will Cain.

From June 29, 2020: Jack Goldsmith sat down with Eric Posner, the Kirkland & Ellis Distinguished Service Professor of Law at the University of Chicago, and the author of the new book, “The Demagogue’s Playbook: The Battle for American Democracy from the Founders to Trump.” They discussed why demagogues are a characteristic threat in democracies, how the founders of the U.S. Constitution tried to ensure elite control and prevent a demagogue from becoming president, how these safeguards weakened over time and how Donald Trump’s demagoguery helped him win election as president. They also explored how Posner’s perception of Trump as a threat to American democracy fits with his writings in support of a powerful president.
