Democrats Face Uphill Battle to Keep Control Of the Hill

With less than two months until critical midterm elections, polls show that Democrats have gained unexpected momentum. Though Republicans maintain key advantages, the pressure is on for candidates in prominent swing districts — where a single election can determine which party takes control of the gavel in Washington. Last week, we spoke with Republican Congressional candidate Tom Kean about his campaign in New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District, which was flipped from red to blue in 2018 by Democratic Congressman Tom Malinowski. Rep. Malinowski has kept his seat over the last four years, and he joins the Rundown today to discuss why he believes the people in his district will vote to keep him as their Congressman. He also discusses his stance on parental and educational rights and why he supports the Inflation Reduction Act despite the bill receiving significant criticism.

Six years ago, when Steve Doocy and his wife Kathy had planned a trip to the eye doctor, they did not expect the result to be Kathy’s cancer diagnosis. During Kathy’s treatment, they had the idea to write down the family’s most important recipes they wanted to make to pass down to their children. The Doocy family has been sharing its passion for cooking ever since, and in the new cookbook, The Simply Happy Cookbook, the Doocys write all about recipes for “happy foods” that brighten people’s days and remind them of home. “Fox and Friends” Co-Host Steve Doocy joins the Rundown to share some of his favorite dishes and family stories from the book and how his cooking is so intertwined with the closeness of his family.
