Host: 本期节目关注以色列与哈马斯之间的战争以及人质危机。这场战争持续时间过长,给许多家庭带来了巨大的痛苦和不确定性。我们必须保持希望,并且这场战争必须结束。我们采访了Adi Alexander,他的儿子Edan Alexander是上个月获释的一名人质。 Adi Alexander: 我儿子Edan在2023年10月7日被哈马斯绑架,被囚禁了584天。在被囚禁的第二阶段,也就是获释前的七个月,我们没有任何消息。我们只看到了两个关于人质的视频,这让我们知道他还活着。他在地道里瘦了50多磅,条件非常恶劣。现在,还有20名人质仍然被哈马斯关押,情况非常糟糕,因为没有食物。这场战争必须结束,为了那些仍在等待亲人归来的家庭,希望是必须的。 Adi Alexander: 我儿子Edan在被囚禁期间,经历了从躲避以色列国防军到被关押在相对较好的设施的转变。在被囚禁的后期,他能够接触到一些媒体信息,包括看到我们和特朗普总统的照片,这给了他希望。虽然他从巴勒斯坦媒体获取的信息与我们的视角不同,但至少提供了一些信息。他身体上和精神上都受到了创伤,但现在正在康复。我向那些仍在等待亲人归来的家庭传递的信息是:希望是必须的,这场战争必须结束。

Shownotes Transcript

On October 7th, 2023, Edan Alexander became one of the many Israelis kidnapped by the terror organization Hamas. Originally born in New Jersey, Edan was serving in the Israeli Defense Force when Hamas terrorists ambushed and captured him. For 584 days, Edan was a hostage in the Gaza tunnels until May 12th, 2025. Edan was freed, and his family says their "nightmare came to an end." Edan's father, Adi Alexander, joins the Rundown to describe the terror he and his family experienced while expressing the importance of hope in Israel.

Despite the efforts of DOGE and President Trump, America’s debt has continued to grow, and with it, the anxiety over paying it off. The President’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” while praised by his supporters, has some within the GOP worried it could strain the debt ceiling even further. Former Director of the Congressional Budget Office and President of the American Action Forum Doug Holtz-Eakin joins to explain how everyday Americans are impacted when our government takes out loans in the trillions and what realistic options are on the table if we want to lower the deficit.

Plus, commentary from FOX News Digital columnist David Marcus.
