Evening Edition: Utah Has Strong Case Against Charlie Kirk Suspect, Federal Charges Loom
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said Monday that investigators are looking into the possibility that Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin acted alone or as part of a larger plot with others involved. Investigators have confirmed reports that the suspect had voiced violent intentions at a family dinner before the attack. Utah prosecutors have booked the shooting suspect on aggravated murders charge but we still await the possibility of federal charges being added.
FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Andrew Cherkasky, a former federal prosecutor and military veteran turned high profile criminal defense and civil trial lawyer, who says the state has a strong case already even without federal charges being applied yet.

Business Rundown: What Will The Fed Do? ... And What Should It Do?
September’s highly anticipated meeting of the Federal Reserve starts tomorrow. This comes after months of President Donald Trump pressuring Chairman Jerome Powell for a rate cut. The president’s public prodding of Powell coincides with his administration's ongoing effort to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook ahead of this week’s key vote, accusing her of mortgage fraud. However, there have been no formal charges. While inflation remains above the Fed's 2% target, investors are betting on a cut this week. The question remains: how low could rates go, and how many cuts could happen this year? Brian Jacobson, the chief economist at Annex Wealth Management, joins Fox Business’ Lydia Hu to preview this week’s critical meeting and discuss some of the other major economic news that will move the markets this week.

From Washington: Lawmakers Call For Action To Combat Political Violence
The assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk marked the latest incident in a nationwide rise in political violence, a grim trend that lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have condemned. Chair of the House Republican Conference, Congresswoman Lisa McClain (R-MI), shared her reaction to Wednesday's tragedy and emphasized the need for political leaders to condemn dangerous rhetoric and violence from all sides.
This week, Senate Republicans triggered a rule change that will allow them to expedite the confirmation process for some of President Trump's nominees. Republican leadership said the move was necessary because Democrats were obstructing the process. Meanwhile, footage of an unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) was shown at a House Oversight subcommittee hearing, as members of Congress investigate the government's transparency regarding mysterious objects in U.S. skies. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joined to break down some of the overlooked headlines from Congress this week.
