Summary

This week, lawmakers on the Hill were working on reforms to FISA Section 702, a warrantless surveillance program that allows our intelligence agencies to spy on foreign targets. Though the program was kept alive with a short-term extension, Democrats and a small cohort of Republicans voted against a continuation after raising concerns over the president’s pick to serve as his Director of National Intelligence. FOX News Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins The Rundown to go over the drama surrounding FISA and the significance of its expiration, as well as the fight over a new reconciliation bill and this past week’s congressional baseball game. Later, Andrew Giuliani, Head of the White House World Cup Task Force, explains the planning and coordination that went into the security surrounding the 78 matches that will be taking place in the U.S. this summer.
