Lara Trump, former Republican National Committee co-chair and daughter-in-law of President Donald Trump, is set to host a new weekend primetime program, My View with Lara Trump, on Fox News. The show will air Saturdays at 9 p.m. ET, marking her return to the network after previously serving as a contributor from 2021 to 2022.

Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott praised Lara Trump’s ability to connect with audiences. “A gifted communicator who knows how to connect to the viewers, successful entrepreneur and working mother, Lara’s innate understanding of the American public and today’s political landscape will be a compelling addition to our weekend lineup,” Scott said in a statement.

Lara Trump expressed enthusiasm about rejoining the network. “I’m thrilled to bring my voice back to Fox News, talk directly with the American people, and highlight what makes this country so great,” she said. “As I cover the success of The Golden Age of America, I look forward to where this time will lead our country and where this opportunity will lead me in the future.”

Her new program will focus on key issues shaping the nation, featuring in-depth analysis and interviews with influential figures. The show aims to highlight what Fox News describes as “the return of common sense to all corners of American life.”

Fox News shifts weekend lineup

The addition of My View with Lara Trump comes as Fox News reorganizes its weekend programming. One Nation with Brian Kilmeade will move to Sundays at 10 p.m. ET, making room for Trump’s show in the Saturday primetime slot.

With her new platform, Lara Trump is expected to bring her signature style of political commentary, aligning with Fox News’ conservative-leaning audience. As she steps into this role, her influence in media and politics continues to grow.
