Ohio State

Fox News

Thanks to a favorable map and several Democrats being forced to run for reelection in Red states, Republicans are optimistic about winning back the Senate this November.   However, one key to achieving that goal is to flip Democrat Sherrod Brown’s seat in Ohio.   Bernie Moreno, the Republican challenging Senator Brown, recently joined FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony to discuss the race and the Republicans’ hopes of gaining a majority in the Senate.   Moreno discussed his poll numbers, the issues he thinks voters care about, and whether he thinks Vice President Kamala Harris’s replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the ticket will impact down-ballot races.   The Colombian-American businessman also explained why he got into politics and how former President Trump has inspired him.   The conversation was long, and we could not include all of it in our original FOX News Rundown segment.   On the FOX News Rundown Extra, we bring you our entire conversation with Ohio Senate Republican nominee Bernie Moreno, and you can hear more about this high-stakes race in the Buckeye State.

A developing tropical disturbance in the Caribbean is showing increasing potential to enter the eastern Gulf of Mexico, intensify, and impact areas along the Gulf Coast, likely between Florida and Louisiana. If the system gains a name, it will be designated Tropical Storm Debby. This system has the potential to bring significant rainfall to the eastern Gulf Coast, and depending on its strength, could also generate hazardous winds and a dangerous storm surge.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

When Kamala Harris was in the Senate, there were times she had to fight an urge to hide when she’d see Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee approaching in the halls of the Capitol. The late Texas Democrat was “unrelenting,” and a fierce advocate for her constituents, the vice president recalled at a celebration of life for Jackson Lee, who died July 19 after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
