Does NYC Mayoral Primary Show Democrats Shifting Further Left?
Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani has declared victory in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary, beating out moderate candidate and former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. The primary results sent waves through the Democratic Party, as voters seemed energized by this candidate's radical agenda that includes free public transit fares, free childcare, and promises to oppose ICE operations in the city. Democratic consultant and former advisor to President Clinton, Doug Shoen, joins the Rundown to discuss whether Blue State voters are jumping even further left. The call to enlist may look different to each American. Retired Staff Sgt. Johnny Joey Jones remembers he and many from his generation enlisted right after the September 11th terror attacks. In Jones' new book, 'Behind the Badge,' he spoke to retired Marine, bomb tech, and former LAPD officer Steve Hennigan about the catalyst for his becoming a Marine: the 1983 Beirut Bombings. Later, Hennigan tells Jones about his relentless pursuit to protect and serve with the Los Angeles Police Department. Plus, commentary from New York Post columnist and co-author of 'Stolen Youth,' Karol Markowicz. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Fox host Kat Timpf delights fans with 'funniest joke of all time' as she reflects on shock breast cancer journey
It seems as though Fox host Kat Timpf is taking her cancer journey in stride - along with some dark humor. Timpf, who recently had a double mastectomy and announced that she had beat cancer after a year, made a joke about her surgery on Gutfeld! She was on the air with Johnny Joey Jones, a former Marine who lost both of his legs in Afghanistan. Jones made a joke about his role at Fox. 'That's why there's a rub here because it's like [Timpf] knows that's the only reason I have this job to begin with,' Jones said. 'And she's going to get cancer and take the sympathy card right out from under me.' Timpf, 36, was quick on her feet and replied, 'Well, yeah!' 'Now you're not the only double amputee on the show,' she said, referencing the fact that she had both breasts removed. Former Marine Johnny Joey Jones joked that he only got his job as a Fox contributor because of sympathy he gets for being a double amputee 'She's going to get cancer and take the sympathy card right out from under me,' he joked She posted the moment on her social media accounts, captioning the video: 'Pretty sure this is my funniest joke ever of all time.' And fans agreed as one wrote: 'OMG this was the freaking hysterical.' 'Kat, you have an amazing attitude about your cancer,' another added. 'Was the funniest show ever! God Bless them both for such amazing attitudes. An inspiration!' someone else shared. Some even shared that they used humor to cope with their own illnesses. 'As a fellow double amputee, I can't tell you how hard this made me laugh,' an X (formerly Twitter) user wrote. 'Humor kept me going through my cancer journey too.' This isn't the first time Timpf's made a joke post-cancer about her double mastectomy. When she first revealed that she underwent the surgery, she explained that she didn't want to 'risk her life for some 32As.' In March, it was revealed that Kat had undergone a double mastectomy for breast cancer after receiving the shock diagnosis while pregnant. She was told she had stage zero breast cancer just one day before going into labor with her first child. At the time, Timpf shared a post-surgery update to let fans know she was doing well. She shared an image from a hospital bed of her legs covered by a gown with an animated 'censored' illustration over her feet. In the caption, she made a joke about how much her breast size had been reduced. 'Post-op! They're honestly not much smaller than they were before I got pregnant,' Timpf wrote said. She made her first reappearance on Gutfeld in mid-June - the first time she had been on the air since her maternity leave and her initial diagnosis. Eventually Timpf shared that she had a healthy baby boy (whose name she did not reveal) and that she was cancer - and boob - free.

Jones: This Military Parade Was The First Time I Felt My Country Saying Thank You For Your Service
Former Marine and Fox News Contributor Johnny Joey Jones called this weekend's US Army 250th Anniversary Parade something he's never seen before and appreciated it. 'My generation of war fighter didn't get those iconic moments of victory. VJ day, you know, celebrating. We didn't get that. What we got was President Biden was withdrawing in the most cowardice and careless way possible in in 13 of us getting killed that day. And so President Trump said, you know what? No, that's not enough. Let's let's tell them. Thank you. Let's put them in their tanks and their uniforms and do a parade, bring them to the center of DC and tell them Thank you. And for me, I felt that when I watched that parade cause I've never seen anything like it in my life. I felt this is the first time that I've seen it in national level my country say thank you for serving and we're proud of you for doing it.'
