Military vax mandate could fuel the growing recruit shortage | The Fox News Rundown –

A fight is brewing over military vaccine mandates, as members of Congress push to repeal the mandate for requiring COVID-19 shots for service members while President Biden and his Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin believe the rule must stay in place. Republicans leading this effort argue forcing the vaccine on our troops is hurting military recruitment and they are calling to remove this requirement from the nation’s defense budget bill that is expected to be released next week. Retired Lt. General Tom Spoehr joins the Rundown to explain how COVID-19 vaccine requirements have impacted recruitment numbers, how delaying the National Defense Authorization Act could hurt the Department of Defense, and why the trend of declining military recruitment is cause for concern.

Residents in Moore County, North Carolina have been left without power after targeted gunfire destroyed two electric substations this past weekend. The outage has left 45,000 homes and businesses without power, making them vulnerable to freezing temperatures without heat. While concerns regarding attacks on utilities typically involve cyber threats, one expert explains how physical threats can pose devastating consequences as well. President and Managing Director of Redland Strategies and former Homeland Security Advisor Michael Balboni joins the Rundown to discuss the circumstances of the attack, how utility hubs can bolster their security, and why he’s concerned about copycats in the future.
