Elect an apology for childish and inappropriate behavior. Day two of the hearings for senator Jeff Sessions of alabama and something unprecedented is about to happen. In the choice between standing with senate norm or standing up, i will always chose conscious and country. Let me ask you this question, is Vladimir Putin a war criminal . I would not use that term. The question is is that the most effective way to have progress continue to be made, there seems to be some misunderstanding that somehow i see the world through a different lens and i do not. Steve so thats where we start today. Thursday. Live from studio e, you know b yesterday we knew that president elect donald trump was going to give his First Press Conference in a very long time and he made about a dozen headlines, for instance, he layed out how hes going to sever ties with his company, russia did try to interfere with the election probably and hes going to donate all of the income from Foreign Governments to the federal treasury, thats great. Yet, it is a couple of news outlets that publish things in the last 48 hours that was inaccurate that really got him going. Ainsley yesterday no one is talking about that, really, everybody is focused on his press conference and the news that allegedly came out of russia about dirt on donald trump, hes saying its not true and its fake news and he went after some of the networks. Brian from the Intelligence Community to the president , sitting president of the United States to the president elect, so cnn runs with this story but not the 35 page, what they said its a twopage addendum about compromising information that russia may have about donald trump. When that came out, donald trump doesnt agree with the assessment and doesnt agree with buzzfeed 35 pages that they released which they ended by the way this was not verified. When it was time to get questions, it wasnt the list of reporters that was in front of the president or the president elect and he would call order, okay whose hand is up, creating a freeforall atmosphere. Here is donald trump trying to get to the next question when cnns reporter john or jim acosta . Ainsley watch john roberts. Watch the exchange between donald trump and that reporter from cnn who he is furious with. Since youre attacking us can you give us a question . Go ahead, go ahead. Since you are attacking us not you, not you, your organization is terrible. Youre attack our News Organization. Can you give us a chance to ask the question, sir . Quiet, quiet. Shes asking a question, dont be rude. Dont be rude. No, im not going to give you a question. Can is that state you are fake news. Sir. You can watch sean spicers face getting redder by listening to this. Cant believe that he would treat the press like that. Think about it. Who is in charge of the white house, is it the White House Press corp. Rush limbaugh loves this donald trump. Can you give us a question. What you are watching is donald trump and his Team Fighting back and refusing to accept the lay of the land as its always been, knot the republicans, donald trump. Donald trump is showing everybody in the Republican Party how its done. I mean, you cant be called anything worst than what theyve tried to call donald trump. You cant be accused of much worse than what theyve accused trump of being and doing and has it affected him, is he cowarding him in the corner, is he whining, no, hes cutting them down to size. Its a beautiful thing to watch and thats why people all over the country when they see these things are standing up and cheering. What do you think that went, i dont remember it happening to president obama, i dont remember it happening to president bush, i dont remember it happening to president clinton. But you never see Something Like this with someone of this high office in this country. We want to know what you think because donald trump looked at jim acosta, jim acosta was saying, are you going to answer my question, no, im not going to answer your question. Steve youre fake news. Ainsley he kept going on, youre being rude. What do you think, was he being rude or jim acosta should donald trump have answered some acostas questions . And the reason donald trump says cnn was fake news and brian touched on this a while ago, monday night cnn reported that during briefing on friday donald trump was presented with a twopage addendum, kind of a summary of this a compilation of dociay and trump was never given the summary. The papers were included in the package to show trump. This stuff right here, this is verified. This is unverified. So thats how it all came about. The beating that the press took yesterday does not make any reporters job easier. The people love it and the Intel Community hates it and caused the director of National Intelligence, mr. Clapper, to pick up the phone last night and he called donald trump and then put out this statement. Ainsley this evening i had the opportunity to speak with president elect trump to discuss media reports about our briefing last friday. I expressed my profound dismay of the los angeles that have been appearing at the press and we both agreed that they are extremely corrosive and damaging to the National Security. Whatever discussed in the meetings, something needs to be kept a secret. They are national steve clapper said that the los leaks did not come from the Intelligence Community. Ainsley donald trump said they might have. Steve where would they have come from . Ainsley someone within that room. Brian he said this is a big block on Intelligence Community. Donald trump says i know who was in the room. I talked to him. He ran a mini test, somehow this stuff is leaking out. Now, if it is true that the Intelligence Community is mad at him for calling them out three weeks ago something with the russian hacks and theyre trying to get back at him, it blew up in their face to the point where Barack Obamas national nid has picked up the phone and trying to explain to donald trump it was not us. So he blasts the report in particular about what was in the buzz can have feed. Im a germaphobe. I wont shake peoples hands. New york posts nails it when it talks about journalism. You can google it from there. It turns out that wall street journal found the investigator that was with mi5 that did the report, released back to mysterious vendor who happened to be an opponent of donald trump sometime between june and december and he was so concerned about the results he handed over to the fbi, john mccain got a hand over to fbi and thats how the unverified report was given to in some way shape or form to donald trump. Look, buzz feed never should have printed it because it was wrong, inaccurate and cnn got in trouble because some of their information was wrong. Trump, however, himself thought it went will because he tweeted out last night, we had had a great News Conference in trump tower today. A couple of fake News Organizations were there, but the people truly get whats going on. Brian also, by the way, obamacare might be history. Ainsian thats right. Steve thats her lead story. Brian ultimately you decide. That would be interesting. While you were sleeping republicans did get one step close the other repealing obamacare after seven hours, senate approving budget package to move forward, they were totally shut down. Health care should not be only for the wealthy. On behalf of the the senate will be in order. Kudos to senate for taking first step to replace, repeal and replace obamacare, now its the houses turn to get the job done. Promise keeping business, make America Great again. Well, the house votes on that measure, that is storm. In another round of Heated Senate confirmation schedules on capitol hill for today including our first look at senator of defense secretary of defense general mad dog mattis, ben carson and senator mike pompeo, mr. Trumps pick to run the cia also have hearings today. And this after marco rubio grilled defense secretary nominee Rex Tillerson over his relationship with russia. Take a listen. Is Vladimir Putin a war criminal . I would not use that term. You are still not prepared to say that Vladimir Putin and military have violated rules of war and have conducted war crimes in aleppo . Those are very, very serious charges to make and i would want to have much more information before reaching a conclusion. Ainsley Rex Tillerson will have second hearing in just a few hours. Congressman who rehung the painting of police depicted as pigs on capitol hill throwing another punch in the fierce fight to democrat lacy clay rehung picture and now demanding action from Speaker Paul Ryan sending a letter saying this, if you dont like a painting in a display, you simply move on to the next one, you dont take it down. Lacy filed theft charges against congressman hunter after he took the picture down. The painting is still hanging. Theres this First Lady Michelle Obama is moving out of the white house in just eight days but still be on hand to help the lady taking her job. We are going to be supportive to the Trump Administration as much as we can be, im available for melania, for ivanka for anyone to give advice that they get through this thing whole and healthy. She already spoke to Melania Trump about creating safe spaces about protecting sense of family. That was so great and credited the bushs for making the job easier and transition. Ainsley nice thing to hear when it seems so divided. Very nice of her. Steve thank you, abby. Ainsley they have to stick together. Coming up, more on the russia rumors, is the Intelligence Community trying or hurt the president elect. Next guest is former cia officer and he has information that you have not heard before. Sarah palin is in the headlines, she has a big secret and cant wait to reveal. Steve i cant wait to hear afoot and lighthearted i take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me, the long brown path before me leading wherever i choose. The east and the west are mine. The north and the south are mine. All seems beautiful to me. One of many pieces in my life. So when my asthma symptoms kept coming back on my longterm control medicine. I talked to my doctor and found a missing piece in my asthma treatment with breo. Oncedaily breo prevents asthma symptoms. Breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Breo wont replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. Breo is specifically designed to open up airways to improve breathing for a full 24 hours. Breo contains a type of medicine that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. Breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. I saw the information, its all fake news. Its phoney stuff. It didnt happen and it was gotten by opponents of ours as you know because you reported it and so did many of the other people, it was a group of opponents that got together, sick people and they put that crap together. Steve what crap is he talking about . President elect trump pointing the finger on a number of organizations, why were unverified rumors included in a brief that supposedly he got and apparently he didnt get . Former cia officer brian dean, good morning to you. Cnn got in trouble because they said on friday trump was given twopage intel report regarding the 35 page dossier. Trump was never given the summary. However, it was mentioned in passing. What say what the Intel Community did was unprecedented. It sure is. What the Intelligence Community is supposed to do is give facts with reasonable analysis, higher, degrees of confidence, you do not give unvarnished rumors to a president elect. In this case, we think, just to pass this along, you might be a russian spy. It is unprecedented. This doesnt happen. Its not suppose to happen. Steve think about it if the cia thought the president elect was a spy, he would be the last person you would tell, we are onto you. You would think. Steve yeah. Even if it was in passing, twopage memo. By the way theres this floating around. You dont do that. We are trained never to do those kinds of things. Its wickedly inappropriate and there ought to be severe consequence who did this or thought this was a good idea. Steve you have a problem with them telling trump because it was about trump. Do you have a problem telling the current president. It shouldnt havent included anywhere. Until you have verified information which frankly should go to fbi, absent that, you dont brief it. You dont brief rumors. How many rumors are in washington, d. C. About every politician. Its ridiculous. Steve there was a leak. The question is where did the leak come from . Clapper said, well, you know, this thing has been circulated on capitol hill as to pin it on members of congress. There were two parties in the room over at trump tower on friday, the trump people and the Intel Community. Yeah. Steve somebody blabbed. This is a challenge that the government, Intelligence Community faces all of the time, leaks happen frequently and usually within the administration or the hill, as a general rule. We are talking about National Security. The person who did the leaking, should they go to jail . Absolutely specially accusing the the president of being a spy. Steve under this administration maybe not get in trouble because it clearly was meant to discredit donald trump but donald trump is going to get the keys to air force one in eight days. Sure. The Intelligence Community owes an apology to the American People because this denigrates who we are and talking to some of my former colleagues we are gasped, we cannot believe this is happening. Steve thank you very much. Coming up, pain killers, are Drug Companies intentionally profiting off of addiction in the country . Details coming up next.

Im going to have to stay somewhere else. Meanwhile ainsley thanks, brian. Opioids are the main contributor of deaths from drug overdoses, over 33,000 people died from opioid use. New jerseys governor Chris Christie join pped us yesterday and spoke about new jerseys own struggle with drug addiction, listen to what he said. Last year in new jersey four times the number of people died of drug overdosed than were murdered. Three times as many people died of overdoes than died in automobile accident. This is epidemic and we need to understand that this is a disease, its not a moral failing, its a disease. Ainsley new jersey is among many states dealing with this epidemic, so could drug firms and Drug Companies be to blame for this problem . Here to weigh in dr. Nicole. Good morning. Ainsley for folks at home that doesnt know what opioids, what are examples . Vicodin, theres a number of painkillers. Ainsley is christie spot on . He hit the nail on the head. Without a doubt, we are in the midst of unprecedented Opioid Epidemic nationally. As we mentioned, 33,000 people in 2015 died alone during to opioidrelated overdoses and thats four times what we were seeing in 2000. Theres definitely a crisis. We are in the middle of it and it would be remiss for us to keep ignoring it. Ainsley what about his solution for the problem . He wants to tell doctors not to write many prescriptions for the problems . Less than 20 of people who overdoes are those appropriately taking, cancer pain, relentless pain that people need medications for for their quality of life. My concern is if we take away prescribing rights, then these patients will have decrease quality of life and decrease life expectancy. Ainsley if you are addicted to pain killers, it leads to heroin. We can put up statickics, statistics, 580 people. They were originally on prescription pain pills. About 80 of those, 75 to 80 were not using own appropriate prescriptions. They were using someone elses. So patients are getting prescriptions but other people are abusing them, they are getting them to the wrong hands. What we need to do is stop that. We need to make sure that this doesnt take place. Ainsley who is to blame for this . The Drug Companies are, they are trying to profit off of peoples addictions. Sure, to say the Drug Companies are to blame would be a small narrow vision. A lot of people. Those are few and far between. Its very complex, its not as easy just throwing pain medication. We need to make sure that patients once they have medication if there is anything left over, that they have the appropriate way to dispose of it so its not hanging out in the house. Heroin, all of the illegal alternatives that people are turning to, thats coming from the southwest border. We need strict Border Control so its not easy to access alternatives. Ainsley some people arent responsible. Absolutely. By restricting doctors rights, they are doing just that. Ainsley coming up taliban releasing a brandnew video of american hostage desperately begging for president elect trump to save their lives. Plus, sarah palin is back in the headlines this morning.

Regarding the wall, mexico wants to talk to trump about security, mexico built a wall. They will pay for it. Be change they are great to deal with so far. They want to renegotiate it. Ainsley donald trump said when he was dealing with Vladimir Putin do you really believe hillary would do a better job dealing with fighting Vladimir Putin than i would . I dont know. When i first i shouldnt like her but i am not sure i will like her. Warming up a little bit. Ainsley the taliban releasing chilling video of these two professors begging for president elect trump to save them. First time we have seen kevin king who is an american and timothy weeks from australia they were taken hostage in august.

A congressman collapsing during a houseboat, florida representative John Rutherford taken from the cloakroom on a stretcher, rushed to the hospital, putting out a statement saying this.

The president is inside. If it is outside that is janet steen. Did you call me a been . After the forecast i delivered for you it feels like springtime. It is a beauty, not a beast. Lets look at the maps. That is not to say other parts of the country dont feel springlike. We have cold air to the north of us and warm, incredibly springlike temperatures ahead of this boundary. That will cause problems in the next 48 to 72 hours. Lets look at the west, big issues, over a foot of rainfall as well as feet, 100 inches of snow, 120 inches across the sea air with the past storm system that inundated the west with heavy rain, mountain snow, fred for mudslide and avalanche danger continue even though that will taper off but this is the concern. Starting today across the central us, Central Plains toward the midatlantic, ice storm starting tonight through sunday, this boundary in place, warm air and golf moisture writing over a very cold layer of air at the surface and that would mean a bad situation from texas towards the ohio valley and the midatlantic.

My two sons, don and eric, going to be running the company and in a professional manner. They will not discuss it with me. I could run the Trump Organization, could run the company, i dont want to do that. Still not satisfied. The senior judicial analyst judge Andrew Napolitano, lock up the hotel. He was talking about he didnt have to do that. Lets start at the beginning. The president invites can never have by statute conflict of interest. Judge napolitano a United States senator and his family owned a hotel room, could not receive the profits from a Foreign Government that rented the hotel room whether it was a ballroom or overnight room but the president of the United States can because when they and acted this statute prohibiting all people that work for the federal government from receiving money directly or indirectly from Foreign Governments they exempted the president and the Vice President. Similarly when they prohibited members of congress from operating Business Enterprises they exempted the president and Vice President. The simple question, did donald trump do enough yesterday . He didnt have to do anything. Everything he did was to give him the opportunity to focus 100 on being president of the United States, did not have to worry about running his businesses. Legally could he run the business as . Of course. Personally could hear the businesses . He loves running those businesses. They said we wont do any business with any other country, keep us right here in america the next four years which are you happy with this . Judge napolitano i am. What i thought was spectacular is profits from hotels like the one that is not far from the white house that money will go to the federal treasury. I do not know of an example in American History where the president of the United States said i am lawfully turning this money but i will send it to the treasury anyway. I dont want anyone thinking im making decisions to increase profitability of this hotel. To watch television at night, Tucker Carlson is not happy with it. He said donald trump should take his name off everything if you want to do this on the up and up. Judge napolitano i disagree. With the president elect disagreed lets talk about it. Ivanas last name is trump. Can she market the name . It is her name. Billy beer, billy carter, market his last name, the same as this. I was in college at the time, the beer was not that bad. Judge napolitano i was just old enough to drink. Secretary of state nominee Rex Tillerson had an intense grilling, cory gardner will be there asking questions and will join us live coming up next. Brian l. L. Bean facing backlash and boycotts, linda been response coming up to you wont want to miss it. Whats the best way to get two servings of veggies . V8 or a fancy juice store . Ready, go hi, juice universe . One large rutabaga, with eggplant. Done thats not fair. Glad i had a v8. The original way to fuel your day. Rex tillerson under scrutiny over his relationship with Vladimir Putin. Day one of his confirmation hearings on capitol hill. Russia poses a danger but it is not unpredictable in advancing its own interests. And invaded the ukraine, the taking of crimea, Syrian Forces that enforce the laws of war. Our allies are right. In the absence of American Leadership this door was left open and unintended signals were sent. They will be friends with russia, and it is due to a bruised ego which came from this administration. Cordy gardner is a member of the senate and their at the hearing, joins us with his reaction. Were you impressed with the Rex Tillerson you met yesterday . Here is a guy not from washington or the political world, without a briefing or a pen and paper, made it clear the last eight years of leadership by barack obama has weakened this country, emboldened leaders to have no fear of the United States when it comes to illegal annexation of crimea. Brian he donated to your campaign, wants to be clear on this. We are curious to and marco rubio, lets share with the american public. Vladimir putin a worker . I would not use that term. So much information out there, would not be hard to say vladimir fitness military conducted war crimes in aleppo. I am not willing to make conclusions on what is publicly available. None of this is classified. Political opponents your question is people directly responsible for that. Im not disputing people are dead. Steve what is your view on the exchange . Foes on the same issue . Comments back and forth, a third round of questioning, the issue of moral clarity over human rights and responsibility, the same field is harder hitting by marco rubio, but the bottom line, when bob corker, Foreign Relations committee, came back and tried to clarify, the answer was simply this. Once he has the information, reviewed this in the state department, he is not afraid to call it what it is. That is a war criminal and i look forward to that information. Steve he says i would give them weapons to defend themselves. That is more than we havent of this administration that gave them blankets. Steve on Climate Change he says theres a lot out there not related to the imminent threat, that is different, on cuba he doesnt think we got enough of what they got. If you look at cuba we had a hearing after the policy announcement, there were more people in Civil Society jailed in cuba after the change in relationship than there were 4. Fidel castro is enriched and that is what Mister Tillerson is expressing and that is a welcome sign we will be tough on those people we need to be tough finance cant let people get away with actions. Steve the yes column. There are questions on a positive investments, waiting to get the response.

Tried prunes, laxatives, still constipated. Had to talk to my doctor. She said, how long you been holding this in . laughs that was my movantik moment. My doctor told me that movantik is specifically designed for oic and can help you go more often. Dont take movantik if you have a bowel blockage or a history of them. Movantik may cause serious side effects, including symptoms of opioid withdrawal, severe stomach pain and or diarrhea, and tears in the stomach or intestine. Tell your doctor about any side effects and about medicines you take. Astrazeneca may be able to help. Opioidinduced constipation. Prescription opioids helped my chronic knee pain, but left me constipated. Finally, i let it out. Told my doctor. He said movantik may help me go more often. Dont take movantik if you have or had a bowel blockage. Serious side effects include opioid withdrawal, severe stomach pain, severe diarrhea, and stomach or intestinal tears. Tell your doctor about side effects and medicines you take. Movantik may interact with them causing side effects. Have your movantik moment. Talk to your doctor about opioidinduced constipation. Steve get up, everybody. It is thursday, january, 12th. This is what is happening today on fox friends. The mr. President elect, mr. President elect are you attacking our News Organization can you give us a chance. Can you give us a question. Can you give us a question. Im not going to give you a question. You are fake news. They havent the slightest idea to deal with donald trump. You know why . Because they havent had any experience dealing with real people. Mr. Acosta owes the president elect apology for his child an inappropriate behavior. Day two of hearings for senator Jeff Sessions of alabama and something unprecedented is about to happen. In the choice between standing with senate norms or standing up, i will always choose conscience and country. Rex tillerson on hot seat, nominee should be secretary of state for donald trump. Let me ask you a question. Is Vladmir Putin a war criminal. I would not use that term, whether you question or label someone, the question is that the most effective way to have progress continue to be made. There seems to be some misunderstanding somehow i see the world through a different lens and i do not. Brian i didnt know what Rex Tillerson sounded like. I read his resume. To sit there for 500 hours straight with probing questions, is impressive. Steve that buy has good hair. Rudy giuliani joins us live. It started five or six days. Last week, the president elect decided that he wanted to bring in on regular basis the people in the private sector, the Corporate Leaders, in particular and thought leaders in the private sector who are working on security for cyber because were so far behind and its his belief, which i share, that a lot of the solutions are out there, were not sharing them. Like cancer, there is Cancer Research going on all over the place. You all wish they get together in one room, maybe we find a cure. My belief as always the answer to cybersecurity will be found in the private sector. That is where we have the great creativity. Thats where we have the huge amount of money and thats where we have these great companies, the greatest in the world. The idea is here to bring together Corporate Leaders and their technological people, president will meet with them on an ongoing basis as well as anybody else in the administration. Steve who will head this up . I coordinate the whole thing. Make sure the meeting takes place. Make sure think get information from the private sector. First of all, government will have all the Information Available in the private sector. Number two, it will form a little more connection between these people who are doing cybersecurity so they can work each other. Some if you put one and two together you could end up with six. I go to israel for example. Tremendous research in cyberdefense in el alam. Dont get benefit of that here. We go there and also the other allies that do cyberdefense. Rex tillerson was exactly right. He are probably says anything as a texan says anything, he is i like him, a direct guy. We dont have a cyberdefense. That is ridiculous. There are cyberdefenses. Brian recap, 10 15 formal announcement takes place, you head up a committee in the white house. Right. Brian are you guys on a timeline to produce something . Basically having meetings with him and produce for him what theyre doing. So that he and the people in his administration get to see what the private sector is doing in an organized way. Steve sure. There is secret part of it too. I dont mean secret like top secret. The other benefits from this get them together, competent them in the same room because i know if i can get them in the same room because i work with some of them and they Start Talking to each, they will come up with even better solutions. Here is what happened to us. Our acquisition of information got way ahead of our ability to defend it. Steve yep. Think of it as a football game. Our offense is here. Our defense is here. We have to do what the giants did, invest in our defense to catch up. We may not make the super bowl in one year but may be there next year. Steve just dont give up a hail mary. Brian watch the back up of end zone. I forgot that one. Ainsley youre talking about the press conference today. Yesterday he had a press conference at trump tower. 250 journalists in the room. Cnn reporting what he calls fake news. This is hem with one of the cnn reporters. Since youre attacking us can you give us a question. Mr. President , mr. President elect go ahead. No the you. Not you. Can you give us a chance. Your organization is terrible. Your organization is terrell. Let us ask a question sir. Quiet. Quiet. Mr. President elect, can you say category, can you give us a question. Dont be rude. Im not going to give you a question. Im not going to give you a question. Can you state categorically you are fake news. Steve the reason he said they are fake news, trump was given twopage intel report on friday. Trump was never given the twopage report. Apparently mentioned in passing. Clearly the report is garbage. The guy they have in prague is the wrong guy. The guy they had in prague was steve different cohen, accusing him of awful stuff. The man who i happen to know really well, he is a great guy and great lawyer, was with his son doing a baseball tryout. His son is very good baseball player. Usc. He was doing a baseball tryout. They said he was in prague. Not only wasnt he in prague, you look at his passport he was not in prague. The thing was a total phony. The piece of paper was total phony. The reporting leaked out of what is supposed to be surrounded by top security. It was never part of it. So i dont snow how you can describe it a totally phony story intended to malign him and to make it look like somehow the moscow has stuff on him they can extort him with. First of all i can tell you something about donald trump. You cant extort him. I dont care what you write about him, what you will say about him, he will do what he believes is right. This is ridiculous what these News Organizations are doing. Cnn for quite some time has been way off the charts. Brian especially since he got elected. Way off the charts. Look, the press may be a little sensitive about that, i would feel the same way if they did that to my reputation. Steve heres the thing. Cnn said he was given a twopage intel report. He was not. The information, many have connected the dots, obviously came from the Intel Community. Last night james clapper, the guy who is director of National Intelligence actually talked to trump on the phone. Spoke with president elect trump to discuss recent media reports about our briefing last friday. I expressed my profound dismay at leaks that have been appearing in the press. We both agreed they are extremely corrosive, damaging to National Security. President obama was concerned about the leaks from National Security. Remember all the investigations . This isnt like a big surprise that there are leaks from the National Security community, or may be. Weve had it before. President trump is not the first one to complain about it. Steve its a crime. Its a serious crime. What he has to do, what he is going to do is, in a few days, there will be new leadership. I think you see that thing straightened out. With proper leadership this doesnt happen. Brian if coats and pompeo get through and in charge. I know dan coats really well. Pompeo is tough as nails. It isnt going to happen under donald trump. Brian mr. Mayor, a lot of people believe, the leaks, got to be the Trump Organization or got to be white house. There is sense, coming, indications were that donald trump believes it is coming from Barack Obamas Intelligence Unit and maybe that was, i feel bad that it is coming from our guys conversation. What do you think . I think a lot of interpretation here. Heres the thing. Shouldnt come out. Steve still a crime. Shouldnt come out. It is a crime. Not only that, it shouldnt come out if it was true, it which would be terrible for mr. Trump, it is not true. It is totally phony, madeup plant that somebody in our Intelligence Community didnt bother to investigate. They didnt bother to figure out if it was the right mr. Cohen or not. That has got to tell you something about competence. Brian wall street journal says it is a guy named chris diehl, who cant be caught up to. One of the people that looked at the dossier. Ainsley the dirty dossier. Brian who looked at it, said if the cia had this would know it is fault. It is too perfect. If someone made it up. Somebody did make it up. Steve released it before the big day of the press conference. Do you think timing had a lot to do with it. Had a lot to do with it. Thing is no other News Organization went with it. Only cnn went with it. Everyone said no, this is garbage. Steve New York Times said no. Washington post. They dont like him very much. Brian cnn does a farewell address, first show comes on goodbye, barack obama. Lets talk about the donald trump story. They put aside the president s farewell address to talk about this. Ainsley everything happened yesterday with congress, they were grilling Jeff Sessions. They have been doing that the last two days. Yesterday, cory booker, fellow senator said positive things about him, worked together with him in the past, he said this, he was grilling him. Listen to this. Some of my many colleagues arent happy im breaking with sinatra digs, to testify on the nomination of one of my colleagues, but i believe, like perhaps all of my colleagues in the senate, that in the choice between standing with senate norms or standing up for what my conscience tells me is best for our country, i will always choose conscience and country. Senator sessions has not demonstrated a commitment to a central rec with sis of the job, to aggressively pursue the congressional mandate of civil rights, equal rights and justice for all of our citizens. Brian he is for unequal rights and no justice. I know a lot more about Jeff Sessions than he does. He doesnt even know him. Jeff sessions was u. S. Attorney when i was associate attorney general. Whenever we would appear with donald trump he would introduce him as his boss. I was his boss 2 1 2 years in the justice department, third ranking official in the Reagan Justice department. He is talking about the wrong guy. Jeff sessions is fair, he is openminded. This is a man who prosecuted klan members. This is a man who sought Death Penalty for a klan member. I dont know if cory booker did that. Steve cory booker is being political. There is nothing prejudiced, racist, if you want to fair apdecent man you will not find a better person than Jeff Sessions. This never happened before. He has proven his bonefides by prosecutions including desegregation cases. I dont know what they want from the guy. Maybe the fact he has a southern accent this is prejudice, what theyre doing to him is prejudice of the worst kind. Ainsley why would cory booker do this . He wants to run for president. I see it as a complete political act. There is, look, i supported then was very disappointed, i supported Loretta Lynch on the theory that the president should get the attorney general he wants and she was a competent u. S. Attorney and i knew her as a u. S. Attorney. Didnt know she was going to meet with president clinton on airplane. Wouldnt have if i knew that. You give the president choice unless theyre bad people. This guy is far from a bad person. This incident talking about jokes, some which didnt happen and happened 20, 30 years ago, and in between he has a prosecutorial record anybody would be proud of including civil rights leader. Steve we know where you come down on him. Tillerson did a great job. Steve he will head up a Cybersecurity Group for president elect soon to be president of the United States. Thank you very much, rudy. You guys are great. Ainsley thank you. Steve we would agree. Your friends. Ainsley welcome anytime here too. Coming up while you were sleeping republicans took the first step to repeal and replace obamacare. What did they do and what happens next . We will explain. Steve Donald Trump Tweets to the country, but what happens when he tweets you personally . One woman just found out. That story next. Before fibromyalgia, i was active. I was energetic.

Ainsley while you were sleeping republicans got one step closer to repealing obamacare. Steve what exactly happened earlier . Rob schmitt with breaking details. Reporter guys, the Senate Passed a budget blueprint, calling repeal resolution after debate raged on for seven hours. It sets blueprint how the republicans plan to repeal and replace obamacare by stripping Health Care Law of its funding. Democrats say a repeal will be disaster for millions of americans. Up to 30 million americans will lose their health care with many thousands dying as a result. Because you have no Health Insurance and you cant go to a doctor or a hospital you die. Reporter fiery debate, the senate votes 5148 along party lines to approve the measure. Only republican holdout senator rand paul who wants to see a replacement in place before a repeal. The vote coming after president elect trump promise ad quick replacement plan. You will be very proud of what we put forth, having to do with health care. Obamacare is a complete and total disaster. Were going to be submitting as soon as our secretary is approved, almost simultaneously obamacare is the democrats problem. We are going to take problem off the shelves for them. Were doing them a Tremendous Service by doing it. We could sit back and let them hang with it. We are doing the democrats a great service. So as soon as our secretary is approved, and gets into the office well be filing a plan. Reporter vpelect mike pence tweeted, kudos to senate to take the first step to repeal and replace obamacare. Now it is the houses turn to get the job done. Promise keeping business, make America Great again. They vote on this tomorrow. Brian get used to this pace. Starting to build a wall at the same time. Good job, rob. Steve rob schmitt. Ainsley rand paul only one that voted against it because he says there is not a plan to replace it. Brian donald trump felt the same way. Called them last week.

Bean, is being blacklisted because one much its 50 plus Board Members supported donald trump with some cash to his superpac. Brian wow. Meanwhile the website, grab your wallet, calling for customers to boycott the beloved retailer more than 70 other businesses who support trump or carry trump products. Now the familyowned l. L. Bean is fighting back. Here to explain that is linda bean. She is the granddaughter of the founder, leon wood bean and a member of the board of directors who supported president elect donald trump. Good morning to you, linda. Steve now we know what l. L. Bean stands for. Ainsley that was your grandfather. Yes it was. Brian how do you feel what is going on very now . I think it is very much a case of bullying. It is bullying me and bullying the company i own and bullying i am partly on, the l. L. Bean Company Since i owned i was a child. My grandfather gave me the first share of stock the day i was born. Steve that is awesome. Ive been on the board for decades. I think i have done a good jobs for the employees. Theyre the victims. The companys employees, if the would i scott succeed in these cases, were not the only one. Steve heres the thing be linda, four years ago your cousin and coo of l. L. Bean gave a lot of money to barack obama. Tell me about the boycotts and outrage then. There was none. Steve there was none. No, definitely a double standard. Both these guys won. Obama won and trump won. My cousins candidate, my candidate but im the one being targeted and vilified, and asked to be taken off the board. They demanded, that is the demand i leave the board. We have a 10member board. Steve because heyou donated to the president. Because i personally gave money to the campaign through this maine effort, put up signs in maine and put our governors wife on tv to endorse trump for president in the last week. Steve are you going to resign from board . Absolutely not. Steve good. Your cousin with one of the eight largest donors to president obama. You gave 25,000 to president elects trump and they want you off the board and people are boycotting your company . Mine thought donald trump won. More people will support him than against your company. You might see a revenue hike because of this. Are you getting anymore business . That is interesting thing i heard from my son, vice chairman of the board, there is slight uptick in our business this week. This happened on monday. A day we announced creation of new jobs in maine to make the bean boot. It is very popular right you no. Im very proud of the company. Brian youre adding jobs which is going to make donald trump happy. It has been misreported about your donation. You gave 15,000 in august and 10,000 in october to making maine great pac. It did not donate illegally. That is correct. Steve a lot of people are taking a stand donating to your candidate and not bullied by this boycott outfit, grab your wallet. People will like you took part in the america process. They will buy duck boots. I had a lot of emails and good messages. Thank you everybody. It is great. Brian youre not one to back down . I never back down. If i feel im right. I feel theyre bull i also. That is all they are are, small hardcore bullies on the left coast in california, to control what we do, what we buy, what we sell in maine. Steve theyre trying to shut you down so that all those people who work up in maine lose their jobs. That is unamerican. Definitely the wrong way to go. We need to create jobs in this country. Brian that means Barbra Streisand wont shop there. She said she would leave america. What happened about that . These threats are very interesting to me. Steve linda bean from l. L. Bean, thank you very much. Ainsley thank you on behalf of america provide best bean bag. My dad designed that. Steve is that right . 1946 spring catalogs. Ainsley one of my goto gifts.

He not only returned the boots but said i will always return. Money back guaranty. Ainsley customer is always right. Right. Steve they fell apart so they started using duct tape. The stitching came apart. Steve got it all figured out. All right. Grateful for the new surge in sales. Steve all right, linda bean from l. L. Bean. I didnt come to represent the company. I came because i have been attacked. Steve thank you very much. Thank you. Brian coming up straight ahead steve see Mainstream Media going with the story that russia has dirt on donald trump. Apparently not true. You should they have to apologize . The man set to become White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer on deck coming up.

Brian but would we have cheap prices . Steve donald trump making his message crystal lear and warning companies thinking about moving jobs out of the u. S. Of a. Ainsley also talking about giving Hotel Profits to the treasury at his First Press Conference as president elect. Brian this is almost too much for Stuart Varney to digest. He is host of varney company. Make press of that press conference from the business perspective. From the business perspective, donald trump, president elect trump using that press conference as bully pulpit. He was wielding a big stick. You keep those manufacturing jobs. You keep your headquarters jobs. Keep them in america, keep them here or else. He was wagging that big stick right at Drug Companies. Look, we are the biggest market for drugs in the world but you would make a lot of them over there. Some of you are moving over there. Stop it. Dont do it now. That is wielding the big stick. The immediate result was a plummet in drug stocks across the board. Steve pharmaceuticals. Boom. Brian how much . 60 billion wiped off the Drug Companies market value like that. Steve this was one thing running for president but havent heard him since saying the same stuff. Participate of successful effort so far to reverse the trend for a generation weve seen jobs, manufacturing jobs in america drift overseas. Mr. Trump wants to stop that, reverse it, keep them here and bring them back. Ainsley how is he going to do that . Make it cheaper to make products here in america because if you own a business carrot and stick. Here is the carrot. I give you tax cuts and deregulate industry but you keep the job here. If you doesnt, well hit you with a border tax trying to bring your stuff back in. Brian stuart, traditionally republicans are free traders, prices down everyone competes. Are they comfortable with this, are you comfortable with this . A lot of people are not comfortable with this. What happens if he does impose a border tax on products coming in from mexico or products coming from china . The price of those things goes up. Around you could be in a trade war. Not everybody is happy with the carrotandstick approach. Steve well watch you over on fox business here in about an hour 1 2. Very good. Thank you very much indeed. Brian wears same outfit. It isnt going to change. Steve be a bip has news. Good morning, guys. Headlines to get to, starting with this one, the taliban releasing chilling video of these two professors begging for president elect trump to save them. First time kevin king, who is an american and timothy weeks from australia since they were taken back in august. Mr. King pleading with mr.

Florida representative John Rutherford, taken out from the cloakroom on a stretcher, rushed to the hospital. The newlysworn in congressmans offices says rutherford is in good spirits. He did not suffer a heart attack but still being evaluated by the doctors. If you thought tuesdays farewell address was the president s final goodbye, think again. Thank you, god bless you. May god continue to bless the United States of america. [cheers and applause] president obama will make his final appearance as commanderinchief on 60 minutes this sunday.

One lucky woman in South Carolina tweeting the next commanderinchief and in her shock she got a response. Tweeting this, morning in america again. Thank you, president elect donald trump so proud of you. Mr. Trump responding back, saying thanks. I wish i could have seen her response. Steve how crazy is that . It is awesome. He connects with the people on twitter. Ainsley thanks, abby.

Brian legendary wrestler Sean Michaels going to the big screen in faith based film calling resurrection of gavin stone. Cars for single moms. Okay. Put that on. This is the best part. You know who did it. Exactly. We dont want the credit. Word i never said to my agent. Brian Sean Michaels making acting debut. Resurrection of gavin stone. I have five minutes left to mail it to me and opens up nationwide january 20th. It is excellent. Ainsley sean is here sitting down with us, because he dedicated his life to god. You gave up drinking, gave up partying, gave up drugs to dedicate your life to god and making films. Brian you kicked big show in the face. I kicked almost everybody in the face. Eventually that is going to happen. Doesnt matter how close you are to me. Ainsley brian, youre next. Seems like i kick everybody eventually. I experienced with a great deal of worldly success as they say, but, came very late in life for me after screwing up my life quite a bit in wrestling. Ainsley how did it happen . My goodness, give you as quick of a version as i can, as i always tell the lord sent me that woman. That woman you gave me, met a young lady. Got married very quickly. We started a family and i held that little guy for the first time, i realized that you know, i was not, you know who i was was not a decent man, not a decent husband and father. Brian you became a better father . I did. I went running to cornerstone church. Somebody help me out. Once they realized i wasnt there to rob the place, they, you know embraced. Steve or kick anybody in the place. Ainsley great church in san antonio. Brian so many wrestlers going to acting success. Latest one is the rock. In this you have to real little act in this. Not just like youre beating people up. You have to come in here and be a guy, it is a great movie. I appreciate that. That is what is so fun about it. It is pretty, not, you know, it is not any stretch for someone to put us in action adventure to fight, but this was a real stretch, was real emotion. There was some depth to this. Clearly a phenomenal script. And i guess i sort of wanted my first movie to be something with a little substance to it. And this was. I was thrilled about that. Brian how do you explain it . The, this is the resurrection of gavin stone. Yes. Brian gavin stone is bigtime actor. Gets in a lot of trouble. Has to do 200 hours of Community Service. Back in your house in his small town and runs into other people when he tries to get out of his Community Service there at the church by jumping into the play, there is chris mat pageant putting on. Brian he will play jesus. He is doing it all to get some cover and get out of this, take the easy way out. In that, process, he runs across some wonderful people, and people that, love him and accept him and embrace him, in spite of everything that hes done and even his motives. That has effect on him. Then of course, playing the role of jesus also has an eat effect on him as well. It is a, i believe romantic inspirational comedy. Steve you know what . Opens on easy day. Open on inauguration, day on january 20th. Thank yall so much. I appreciate it. Steve god bless you. Coming up on this thursday Mainstream Media going with the sorry that russia had dirt on donald trump should they have to apologize now been shown not to be accurate . The guy set to become White House Press secretary, sean spicer will do that. Dont go anywhere. Yeah, so moms got this cold. Hashtag stuffy nose. Hashtag no sleep. I got it. Hashtag mouthbreather. Yep. Weve got a mouthbreather. Well, just put on a breathe right strip and. Pow it instantly opens your nose up to 38 more than Cold Medicine alone. So you can breathe. And sleep. Shut your mouth and say goodnight mouthbreathers. Breathe right. Steve it is Heated Exchange everybody is talking about. Cnn reporter slammed as fake news by donald trump yesterday at his press conference. Heres what that reporter is saying now. During that News Conference sawn spicer said to me if i were to continue to persist to try to ask a question i would be thrown out of that News Conference. Aaron, keep in mind i have covered four president ial campaigns, i covered president obama at white house. I never had a press secretary to threaten throw me out of a News Conference. That is a first. Not a good sign of things to come. Brian cnn incoming press Secretary Sean Spicer joins us right now. Sean, did you actually do that . Say next time ims toking you . I think jim acosta has a very, very false recollection of the facts. Here is what happened during the press conference, he verbally went after the president of the United States, was aggressive with him, inappropriate, rude, disrespectful to say the least. He shouted down a wellrespected long time journalist who was asking a question. He wouldnt stop interrupting president elect and maura from asking her question. Once he did, toward the end of the press conference he did it again. After the press conference i went up to him, explained to him that his behavior was unbecoming disrespectful, rude inappropriate unbecoming of someone addressing the president or president elect the United States. If it happened again in the future yes i would remove him. But i tried to remove him during a pros conference is patently false. I think he owes an apology to the president elect, to his fellow members of the press corps and to maura aliason doing her job to ask question in respectful, polite manner. Ainsley here is the thing. 250 journalists in the room. Everyone wants to get a question. Cnn had a question. He answered it. Another cnn report, jim acosta tried to get the get the question in. Can i can ask a question. Mr. Trump said you cant. Can i ask a question, can i ask a question . Mr. Trump said no you cant and he was giving someone else a chance. 450 reporters by the time all said and done made it in there. The idea somehow he feels entighted it ask a question is bit preposterous. That aside a lot of folks wanted to ask a question i understand that whether republican democrat i would be here saying same thing, if someone addressed president obama or president clinton or any president that way. It is disrespectful rude, childish, unacceptable for anybody to treat ainsley especially for the highest honor president of the United States. Thats right. So i think that at some point, this should be a lesson there were plenty of journalists, majority of which who act with respect and a normal protocol and decorum, that is how it should be. The idea he feels entitle ited to acts in a way unbecoming, frankly doesnt represent the press corps respectfully. I know many journalists feel the same way. Steve Going Forward, buzzfeed and cnn are going to be in the Briefing Room for the president of the United States to answer questions. Is he ever going to answer questions from either of those news outlets . He had a problem with both of these yesterday . I think he did answer a question yesterday from cnn the president elect will take anybody on. He is committed to an agenda that will move this country forward. Steve sean, is really mad at buzzfeed for printing is he going to punish them by not answering their questions . No. I dont know, if you look how quick buzzfeeds failing im not sure they will be around by the time we take office next week. Their trajectory downward is going rather quick. That being the case should they end upcoming to the Briefing Room the president elect doesnt stand down anybody. He will take any question. He is committed to this country, moving it forward, lifting up people out of poverty and spurring economic growth. There is nobody, whether member about press or business leader, you have seen this from the second he got elected. He doesnt take no for an answer and he fights to win. Brian i get that sense. Meanwhile donald trump just tweeted this out. James clapper called me, National Intelligence director to denounce the false report illegally circulated. Phony pacts, period, too bad, exclamation point. James clapper realized he had to make a call looks like these leaks are eminating from the Intelligence Community because those were the unnamed sources that cnn named. So sean, seems to be a problem there, correct . And he is acknowledging that by picking up the phone, that right . Well, i think he just wanted to be very clear this document that was circulated by buzzfeed and others, that attempted to look like a an intelligence document was in fact and director of intelligence in his Statement Last night made it very clear it was not an intelligence document. So for folks in the media and others to run with it, as if it is gospel truth is patently inappropriate. It was a, it was just, a document that had been circulated around the internet as the director notes in his statement. That had been out there for months. Brian moving on to the confirmation hearings, Rex Tillerson was somebody on, was out there yesterday for quite a long time. First time in the public setting that we know, certainly going for the secretary of state job. Marco rubio seems really on the fence about voting for him, in this post interviews. Will donald trump pick up the phone to talk to the senator . Well have to see Going Forward but i would commend anybody to watch that hearing yesterday. Rex tillerson did a phenomenal job. Shows why the president elect was correct in chooses him. He is unbelievably carve qualified for this post. He will do phenomenal job as secretary of state. His command of geopolitical situation and landscape we have will be huge benefit to america reasserting ourself around the globe. I hope senator rubio, frankly the entire senate, whether youre republican or democrat realize what an asset the president elect chosen to lead our foreign policy. Ainsley sean, we had Rudy Giuliani, former mayor of new york, he broke news to us that there will be Cybersecurity Team and he will lead that team and interest donald trump will be talking about it today. What can you add to that. President elect trump met with the foreign intelligence chief, saying he wants a 90 day plan, to increase our cyberdefense, governmental institutions associations, businesses. We have to do a better job preventing hacking what the dnc was subject to during the election cycle and empower the institutions to with the tools to protect themselves. Mayor giuliani is unbelievably qualified to lead this through his work since 9 11 in the cyber world, in the National Security world. So hes going to lead and spearhead this effort to make sure that our country benefit from his knowledge and expertise steve official announcement comes up in about three hours. Sean, thanks for dropping by. Thanks, guys. Steve have a great day. Meanwhile it was up and then it was down and now it is backs up and down again. Were talking about the painting depicting cops as pigs on capitol hill. There is very latest that is huge development. Ainsley huge guest list for the last hour. Herman cain, senators jo manchin and ted cruz. And Lindsey Graham from the great state of South Carolina. Great state of South Carolina. Laura ingram. Come on in laura. Miralax. The full value of your totaled new car. No, i picked the wrong Insurance Company. With new car replacement™, well replace the full value of your car plus depreciation. Liberty mutual insurance. Ainsley good morning. Today is thursday, its january 12th, this is whats happening on fox and friends. Mr. President elect. Go ahead. No, not you. Not you. You are attacking our can you give us a question . No, im not going to give you a question. Can you state categoricalally . Cnn for quite some time has been off the charts. I would feel the same if they did that to my reputation. An physiology his childish and inappropriate behavior. Day two of the hearings for senator Jeff Sessions of alabama and something unprecedented is about to happen. In the choice of standing with senate norms or standing up, i will always choose conscious and country. It should not be hard to say that Vladimir Putin is a war criminal. Those are very, very serious charges to make. He believes that once he has these charges, hes not afraid to call it what it is. Steve the lady in red is live, good morning to you. I lost my cowboy hat, though. Steve but you do have a background in professional wrestling. I think its probably a sign some of things to come, and its going to be a combative relationship from the beginning. But we all knew that. Trump wasnt going to change his view of fair reporting, what he considers fair reporting. And theyre going to go on the offense. Theyre not going to be back on their heels when the press comes out with a story that they think is unfair. Theyre going to go right for the i mean, theyre going to go right for the juggler. Steve my hunch is he was playing it somewhat coy, theyve turned on him to a degree. So who can he trust until he gets his own people in there . And remember, capitol hill is briefed on this stuff as well. I mean, you have to think of who has the motivate to release this information . There are a lot of senators on capitol hill. We saw some of this yesterday. Im not accusing anyone. Im just saying were speculating here. A lot of people could have motivate for. Steve sure. Making trump seem more vulnerable on these issues. Ainsley lawmakers are briefed too . There are five who are more in the know top leaders of National Security and i dont really believe its someone from the defense or Intelligence Community. Its always someone down the chain a little bit, whether congressional staffer who learned about it or senator. Who knows. But trump i think was he was putting out a little steve sure. By the way, josh earnest seem to answer the questions, some might speculate that this is pay back with the whole birther problem with donald trump about unsubstantiated. Yeah. When you go back and look at all the rumors about obama. I went and did some searches yesterday Like Washington post. The most ridiculous rumors ever about trump about obama, and they just batted them away. This was an unseemly and unfortunate over the last 48 hours. But i think what we learned is trump team is not going to be a punching bag and the media isnt going to be a punching bag. This is going to be a backandforth that i think in the end is going to be healthy. And donald trump is going to answer questions from cnn and as it points out, he did. Ainsley for folks who havent seen it. Cnn already asked a question, he answered it. And then he wanted another question and even though there were 450 more journalists there. Steve right donald trump was mad at cnn because cnn said, look, donald trump got this twopage thing about the dirt in russia. That was not true. Ainsley and despite being mad at them, he already answered a question. This was the second question trying to be asked. Listen to this. Since youre attacking us, can you give us a question . Mr. President elect. Since you are no, not you. Not you. Your organization is terrible. Your organization is terrible. Sir, can you state quiet. Quiet. Dont be rude. Dont be rude. No, im not going to give you a question. Can you state you are fake news. Steve what do you make of the volume of mr. Acosta . Everybody is posturing. There are a lot of alpha males or would be alpha males in the room. But evan wants to stick their chest out and say im here, and i demand to be heard. But i remember that moment in the rose garden with that rather the some years ago and do you remember when he was shouting a question at barack obama. Steve daily caller. Yeah, daily caller. And the entire media just piled on that guy. So i think if this were barack obama and a reporter from National Review kept going after him and demanding an answer, theres no president here for the president of the United States. Theres no respect for the president. I think a lot of the elites would have had a problem with that. Brian so then jim costa comes out and says i was yelled out and spicer says, he was on with us a short auto time ago, he says this would have happened. The idea that he feels entitled to ask a question is a bit perfec pro. I think whether its rapport democrat, if someone had addressed president obama or president clinton or any president that way, it is disrespectful, rude, childish, and unacceptable for anybody. The press has a terrible reputation. Lets face it. Most of them got this wrong. They were not tuned in to the pulse of American People. Most thought they were rooting for hillary. And i think they have a lot to prove for the public that theyre going to cover this presidency fairly. I mean, it should be a check on any president. Anyone in power who is running the executive branch or congress or you cover the courts, thats fine. But to me yesterday, it was a little much. Steve well, and you have all the letters to, the alpha males and the females. But buzzfeed made every one of their jobs heard. I think so and, again, buzzfeed is trying to get clicks. I get that but it was reprehensible. But you need to keep in mind too is that the president elect has done one thing that most people would take note of and get an angle on the story and thats the people that got working class american in the midwest and the people that are getting jobs are getting back are the people staying there. Theyre not the billionaires or the rich people. Thats a story line that nobody is writing or talking about. Those people are going to look for one thing over the next year. On the first 100 days. Is america Getting Better . Is the economy growing . Do we have more faith that america is going to be the place that we grew up in. Not that we dont advance or change. But the bedrock principles, patriotism as reagan talking aboutalked about it in his farewell address. I think in the end after four years or eight years of donald trump, Race Relations in the United States will be improved. They will be improved. And that will be a shock for a lot of people in the media. Brian have to fulfill his promise for inner workers . He has to go to the inner city and get that ability for them. Sell the message to the people who have been harmed by this worship of globalization. And if he does that, and he does that consistently, i think trump will youll people are going to heads are going to spin around how much Better Things are going to get. Brian i talk to jim brown a lot, he says hes never been more convinced that this president is going to help out the Africanamerican Community more than how about building the wall . Use the labor of people who have not had jobs to actually build the wall. Use construction workers from the inner city, detroit, southcentral l. A. They dont have jobs. Make it part of the american experience. Mexico is going to be better off if we have a real border. So will the United States. Were going to celebrate that. Ainsley lets talk about the confirmation hearings yesterday. Marco rubio was talking with Rex Tillerson steve grilling. Ainsley grilling him. Were going to play you a sound byte and get your reaction. Is Vladimir Putin a war criminal . I would not use that term. Theres so much information out there. It should not be hard to say that Vladimir Putins military has conducted war crimes in aleppo. I am not willing to make conclusions on what is only publicly available. None of this is classified, mr. Tillerson. Your question is people who are directly responsible for that. Im not disputing these people are dead. Steve so why was marco rubio wanting a headline because im not in washington. This is marcos revenge. Steve for what . He feels he was wronged during the campaign by donald trump. I have no doubt that marco rubio, you know, would probably like to take the verge of war over i dont know lithuania or whatever he thinks we should be fighting russia over. But to question tillerson who is going to be secretary of state and make him demand at that moment to declare putin a war criminal, saudi arabia rights violator. To what end . How is that going to make him a better secretary of state to represent americas interest when hes going to have to work with these countries . We want better relationships with these countries, but we want to have a clear eyed view of what russia is for sure, what saudi arabia does. But is more about marco rubio reasserting himself as the neoconservative force on capitol hill than it was about Rex Tillerson. I think it was obvious. We had the volume down in our radio studio upstairs and my producer and i were watching it and i said rubios going after tillerson. And he said how do you know . Look at his face. Steve ultimate wanted the diplomatic answer. Great to see you. Thank you very much. Brian abby, youre going to tell us something important, im sure. We have some headlines to get to from tillerson to another round of hearing set today, including our first look of secretary of defense nominee dr. Ben carson. Nominee to run the department of housing and urban development and mr. Trumps pick to run the cia also in the hot seat today. And republicans moving one step closer to repealing obamacare. The senate approving a budget package. Democrats trying to stop the passage they were shut down. Health care should not just be for the healthy and the wealthy. On behalf of the 1. 2 senate will be in order. Debate is not allowed. And just a short time ago, Vice President elect taking this kudos for senate to repeal obamacare. Now its the houses turn promise keeping business. Make America Great again. And icy conditions causing miami heat basketball team, luckily no one was hurt there. And near lake tahoe, california, a massive avalanche that was actually planned ended up going very wrong. Just take a look at this. The snow going right through the door of this house and other areas of the state West Mountains with sprain destructive flooding. This woman, you can see her kayaking through her home. Listen to this. She says she needed to save an old bottle of brandy. I love that. The things well do for alcohol. Steve she has her priorities. Right. What matters. Brian thats why i have a kayak. Have to go through the living room. That poor lady in their houses. Steve straight ahead, democratic senator cory booker breaking decades of tradition to disrupt the confirmation process and slam a fellow senator, in this case sessions, on race. If one is to be attorney general, they must be willing to continue the hallow condition of our country for fighting for justice for all. Senator sessions record does not speak to that desire, intention, or will. Steve really . Former president ial candidate herman cane has a few things to say that. Herman, youre next. Ainsley we still have a huge show, senator cruz and Lindsey Graham. Stick around. You wouldnt believe whats in this kiester. A farmers market. A fire truck. Even a marching band. And if i can get comfortable talking about this kiester, then you can get comfortable using preparation h. For any sort of discomfort in yours. Preparation h. Get comfortable with it. More doing chores for dad per roll more earning something you love per roll bounty is more absorbent, so the roll can last 50 longer than the leading ordinary brand. So you get more life per roll. Bounty, the quicker picker upper i need to promote my new busi can make that happen. Et. Business cards . Business cards, brochures, banners. Pens . Pens, magnets, luggage tags, bumper stickers. How about foam fingers . Like these . Now, get 15 off making your company stand out. Staples. Make more happen. If one is to be attorney general, they must be willing to continue the hallow tradition in our country of fighting for justice for all. Senator sessions record does not speak to that desire, intention, or will. We need someone as attorney general who is going to look out for all of us. And not just some of us. Senator sessions has advanced an agenda that will do great harm to africanamerican citizens and communities. Ainsley Senate Democrats going hard after attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions and his background on civil rights. Steve Fox News Contributor and 2012 president ial candidate joins us right now. Herman, a number of democrats yesterday essentially said, look, Jeff Sessions is a racist, and he has, you know, im generalizing but the image was, you know, that he would be unfair. You know Jeff Sessions. Is that the man you know . No. This is peer political theater number one. Secondly, you notice the three clips were all black men . Why . Because they wouldnt try out a white democrat to call him racist. No, lets go bet black democrats to call him racist. Secondly, his actions speak much louder than this accusations. All i needed to know was he convicted a kkk leader. Secondly, he led an effort to desegregate the schools in alabama. And the accusations have been shown to be false. This is pure political theater on the part of the democrats. Ainsley what about cory booker for the first time a fellow senator speaking out against another senator. Cory booker was auditioning to run for president of the United States. Steve looked like it. Thats what that was about. Oh, yeah. Now, it was his job to do something unprecedented in order to get some unprecedented media coverage. Why . I believe he has some aspirations to maybe run for office. You see, the democrats have to problem. They dont have anybody in the pipeline to run for president and cory booker maybe the candidate down the road. Thats my interpretation of why he did what he did. Steve look, the democrats also dont have the votes. Jeff sessions from what weve seen is going to be our next attorney general. Yes. Hes going to be our next attorney general and that phony statement about he has not shown that he represents justice for all, thats simply not true. Its an accusation, and its a false one that theyre trying to get to stick. Make stick. Heres one other thing. The democrats are doing this because they are trying to send a message to their supporters that theyre not going to go down without a fight. No matter how few. Thats all it is. They want to show were going to go down fighting, even though theyre looking bad in the process. Ainsley mr. Herman cane. Thank you very much for joining us this morning. Happy to be with you. Thanks. Steve coming up on this thursday, we are about to start our initial dissent into iran . A first for the country just happened. We have breaking details straight ahead. Ainsley also, ed henry knows what its like to go up against a president. So is Donald Trumps behavior over the top . Were going to ask ed. Thats next. Steve hello, eddie. Ainsley hi, ed. Taking a holiday in britain, are ya doll . Well, the only place you need go. Londons got the best of everything. Cornwalls got the best of everything. Sport sport nightlife nightlife both fashion adventure im tellin ya, britain is the only place you really need go. Expedia. Everything you need to travel britain better. We have a new segment ainsley breaking news overseas, american soldiers rolling into russias backyard on tanks. President obama deploying nearly 4,000 troops to poland in response to russian president Vladimir Putins promise to strength jeanettes missile program. And moments ago, airbus this airbus touching down in iran. This morning the first of 100 brandnew planes landing in the countrys capitol. Iran finalized the 18 billiondollar deal last month, thanks to the white house lifting sanctions in the nuclear deal. Steve meanwhile, lets switch gears on fox and friends. He knows a little bit about pressing the president for answers. Look at this. I understand its a tough job and god forbid theres another terrorist attack. Its going to be extremely difficult to be in the oval office. I took it on. My question is do you have any personal regrets . Steve that was back in 2013. We were kids then. That was between obama and our own National White house correspondent ed henry, and he joins us now. Ed, we just want to get your perspective. Did you ever call out for president bush or obama any company when you were there called on . And we had some back and forth, so i understand where jim is coming from. I think hes a tough but fair reporter. He went a little far. It went on and on and on, at some point you have to say i made my point, hes not going to answer it, lets move on. But what i find particularly interesting is if you remember i had one exchange as soon as i got to fox the first time i asked president obama a because he was something about iran, and i quoted mitt romney criticizing him, which happens all the time at White House Press conferences. Your opponent harry reid says youre the worst person in the world. Respond. And instead he immediately said i didnt know you were the spokesman for mitt romney. That was not just an attack on me. He was very clearly trying to attack fox. And this was not about me. It was eight years as you know attacking fox. James, a whole line of people. So any point is all of a sudden in the last 24 hours, going, oh, my gosh why is donald trump beating up on cnn . I just didnt hear very much of that. Maybe i have to open up my ear. I didnt hear the cheerleading behind me previously when this was going on. And here was jim acosta yesterday going back and forth. Steve roll tape. Since youre attacking us, give us a question. Mr. President elect. Mr. President elect. No. Not you. Not you. Can you give us a chance . Your organizations terrible. Your organizations terrible. Sir. Can you state quiet. Quiet. Mr. President elect. Dont be rude. Dont be rude. Dont be rude. Can you give us a question . Im not going to give you a question. Can you state you are fake news. Sir, go ahead. Ainsley two things here. Yeah. Ainsley he said, first of all, he wants to defend cnn. Donald trump had already given cnn a question, so he did allow them to ask a question. The second thing is he was trying to defend cnn. And i understand that if someone said something about fox, i would want to defend fox if we were correct. These were wrong reports. You got at the point i wanted to make. The real issue here is not the back and forth at a News Conference. I felt that heat many times. I felt the critics were going after me. And thats not the point. The point is the substance of what this this story about donald trump true or not . And at this moment, theres still some holes, still some back and forth. Some parts of it appear to be true, other parts are really still being challenged which troubles should have all been there 110 before it ever went to air or the web. Heres one other quick point when have spicer on. I want to reveal a nugget a couple of years ago when neil monroe of the daily caller interrupted president obama years ago at the rose garden. That went too far. The point is white house officials at the time because he was the correspondent revising notice revoke his press credentials. Saying how dare he interrupt the president . And i didnt because i didnt feel it was my place or our place as reporters to revoke peoples credentials because theyre doing their job. Even if they go a little far. So the bottom line here is youre hearing a lot of hypocrisy. Sean spicer, why is he attacking . This white house was going after neil monroe also. The shoes on the other foot now. Steve you know, ed, i think we might have gotten a preview of what the administration is going to be like with the press, though. The last two administrations, the president have gone up and had a list. Number one question goes to cnn. Number two, stuff like that. Yesterday, it was a free for all. Yeah. You, you, you. And he just kept going. And thats great. As i recall when i look at video tape, thats what jfk did. Lets do this, lets do that. And you know another thing donald trump does is answers or doesnt answer the question. President obama gives an answer for nine minutes, and its a long filibuster. And were all sitting in the room i want to get in here. And you forgot what the question was. You forgot what he said six minutes ago that you want to challenge. So it was sort of keep the ball. And in this case, hes throwing the ball. Steve you have to get to the point where you eliminate everything down on a page. Wouldnt that eliminate a lot of the chaos . No. He has ripped up the rules. Who cares. I think thats part of the thing. The reporters go we want it done a certain way. I think the public goes were not at charge. We have a seat at the table but hes the president of the United States. It doesnt mean he cant do whatever he wants and there should be rules of the corium, and sometimes he goes a little far saying youre fake news. Yeah, you have to calm some of that down. But at the end of the day, we dont have it written down that we have to have it a certain way. Its not about us. Ainsley and at the end of the day, hes spicing it up and more people are interested in politics than ever before because they like to watch his press conferences. Good to see you, ed. Steve hes spicing it up. Coming up this thursday, sarah palin is back in the headlines this morning. She has a big secret that she cant wait to reveal. Sharon and donald trump promising to repeal obamacare. He says hes doing democrats a r the problem off the shelves for them. Were doing them a Tremendous Service by doing it. Ask democrat joe mansion if he feels the president is doing them a favor my heart beats one hundred thousand times a day, sending oxygen to my muscles. Again so i can lift even the most demanding weight. Take care of all your most important parts with centrum. Now verified non gmo and gluten free. Cmohappy birthday i survived a heart attack. Im doing all i can to keep from having another one. And im taking brilinta. For people whove been hospitalized for a heart attack. I take brilinta with a baby aspirin. No more than one hundred milligrams as it affects how well it works. Brilinta helps keep my platelets from sticking together and forming a clot. Brilinta reduced the chance of another heart attack. Or dying from one. It worked better than plavix. Dont stop taking brilinta without talking to your doctor since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. Brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. Dont take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. Tell your doctor about bleeding, new or unexpected shortness of breath, any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. Talk to your doctor about brilinta. Im doing all i can. That includes brilinta. If you cant afford your medication, astra zeneca may be able to help. Going to take the problem off the shelves for them. Were doing them a Tremendous Service by doing it. Brian and that was donald trump yesterday. A little bit later on the senate sprang into action to repeal obamacare officially. Joining us now is a democratic senator who will be the conduit between democrats and republicans if this demonstrate is going to work with the other side. Senator joe mansion. Senator, always good to see you. How all . Brian youre very firm in saying i dont want it repealed. I want it fixed. Did anything happen yesterday to prevent donald trump from fixing it . Well, lets set the stapling very quickly, brian. Because in west virginia, 170,000 people got insurance for the first time. And basically we have hospitals depending on it. People with opioid addictions. Everything basically trying to make it better or fix things or give People Health care. With that, there needs to be changes. No doubt about it. Im a centerrist, moderate democrats willing to work, wanting to work with this administration. Wanting them to be successful. And ive reached out to them, and theyve been very kind reaching out to me. Im counting on president elect trump, Vice President elect pence to make sure that we dont just throw the baby out with the bathwater until we have something to see how were repairing it. Ainsley senator. [as there anyone that would want to repeal without replacing . I mean, donald trump ran on that saying he wants everyone to have Health Insurance. He wants you to be able to keep your doctor. At 26 years old and under, you can be on your parents. But hes saying he wants to just change it. Hes not saying anyone out there who has obamacare going to all of a sudden not have it. Well, im counting on that too. Im counting on that procedure there to have something that repairs it, fixes some of the parts, basically we think theyre very, very wrong and need to be fixed. But keeping the good parts, which he talked about through his campaign. Yes, there is. We were going down a direction that they were saying were going to vote to repeal it and maybe in one year wore years from now, well have a fix. Well, you cant do that. You cant leave people in limbo and say were not going to throw anybody off. Well, if you repeal the taxes that paid for obamacare, which is about 2 trillion over a tenyear period, you bust the budget cap and leave one heck of a hole. And that couldnt be done either. So i talked to president elect trump about this. Hes been very kind. Weve talked back and forth. I think weve got a great rapport going on here. And also Vice President pence i met yesterday. Steve yep. And theyre showing me that theyre going to have something in place, and it should be voted on immediately. Simultaneously. That would be wonderful. At least we have some certainty to this and people arent left in alert. Steve sure. Thats great news. The last couple of minutes, chuck schumer, the leader of the democrats and the senate announced opposition to senator sessions for attorney general said, you know, i we just cant go on with that. How do you feel about Jeff Sessions . Does he have your vote . Jeff sessions has my vote. Hes my friend. Ive built relationships and friendships here. I dont care if their democrats, republicans, independents. We were sent here to make america better. And Jeff Sessions, ive known him for six years, weve been friends, we talk about an array of things. I have never detected. Never one ounce of detection that Jeff Sessions is what they have said. And with that, i think he handled himself well. I can only say how i know the person, and im voting for the person i know. Now, some people say hes too conservative. Some people are too liberal. The bottom line is president elect trump won the election. He ought to have a right to put his staff go together. If he goes through the background check and nuns his financial disclosures, then that basically should allow him to put his team together. Brian how surreal was it to do cory booker to go behind the microphone and condemn him yesterday . You know, cory is a good person. I know coy, and that just didnt seem like it was the cory i knew. And cory would have to speak on why he felt compelled to do it. But hes a good man and that was out of character as i know cory. Steve well, if youre running for president in a couple of years it does strange things to you, doesnt it . Brian steve might run. We never know how youre going to react. I am who i am. Im too old to change. I never intend to change. Steve thank you very much. Ainsley thank you. Good morning. Thank you. Ainsley coming up senator ted cruz and Lindsey Graham are here to weigh in on the brandnew battle between the president elect and the main well, i shouldnt say brandnew battle. Its continuous.

Ainsley Abby Huntsman has some headlines for you and for your family. Steve how do you know . Ainsley because she just told me. And i got invited on the couch this morning. Headlines started with this one, the taliban video of professors begging president elect trump to save them. Its the first time weve seen kevin cane, who is an american taken back in august. In the video, king is pressing trump to put pressure on the government in exchange for the terror group. The two were kidnapped outside university in cobble.

Brian we were just looking at A Sarah Palin story that was intriguing and vindication. Ainsley lots of reasons there. Did you see that video of the avalanche . Oh, my gosh thats terrifying and, unfortunately, across the west theyre going to be dealing with avalanche danger. Lets take a look at the weather because there are a couple of headlines.

What was going on there . We were thinking about janice dean. She might work for uber. Imagine the rides she would get. Morning, guys. The next group up this morning we will see hearings, secretary defense, cia, housing, urban development. And america is about to get to know these people in a way they dont already. General james mattis. And also trump and the cia, trump and the media. Governor Mike Huckabee will address that followed by howard kurtz in our hearings. 12 minutes away at the top of the hour president elect, since you are attacking our News Organization. No. Not you. Not you. Your organizations terrible. You are attacking our News Organization, can you give us a chance to ask a question, sir . Steve the Heated Exchange serve talking about. The president elect blasting the media after an intel memo filled with rumors it is leaked. Even rumored to be intel. Ainsley its an accusation the National Intelligence director denies having north dakota nig to do with. And here to react is Senate Armed Service committee member. We have senator ted cruz and senator Lindsey Graham. Good morning to both of you. Thank you for being with us. Good morning. Ainsley senator graham, ill start with you because youre from the great state of South Carolina. Go tigers. Ainsley yeah. Oh, i know. National champions. Were so proud of them. What did you make of that exchange yesterday with jim and donald trump . You know, at the end of the day, unseemly, i guess. And the president elect will soon be president , i hope they have a better engagement. The media still doesnt get why he won, and hes got to realize hes president , the campaigns over. Better days ahead is what i predict. Steve sure, well, the reason he was unhappy was the fact that buzzfeed published a 35year 35page document that who knows if any of it is true. And cnn said that trump got a twopage document about some crazy stuff in russia, which apparently was not true. He did not get it. He heard about it in passing. But senator cruz, theres some insinuation that maybe these leaks, these security leaks are actually coming from our Intel Community and thats one of the reasons mr. Clapper called donald trump last night. Well, listen, i dont know if theres any way to think thats the case. Youre right that a couple of socalled journalistic outlets ran with completely unsubstantiated internet rumors. I thought journalism was supposed to do better than that. Steve right . And, you know, it is not complicated that the media, most of the media is bias. Theyve got a political agenda, you know, lindsey and i both for the last couple of days have been at the confirmation hearings for Jeff Sessions nominated to be attorney general. During those hearings, there were a bunch of leftwing protesters that jumped up and began screaming, and i pointed out. I said, look, i notice that all the tv cameras, all the took pictures of and filmed the protesters yelling kkk. And i gave a challenge to every news network. I tell you what. If youre going to air that, and im willing to bet youre all going to air that. How about you also air a prosecutor Jeff Sessions helped put a clansman on death row for murdering a young africanamerican man, and he helped bankrupt the clan in alabama. And what you know . Not a single one of the News Networks carried those facts. But they all carried the leftwing protester. Thats just the reality in life. The media has a political act. Steve yeah, theres so much going on, and i watched your endorsement of Ricks Tillerson too. And everyone was holding on tight to hear what was going to happen. And heres what he said. I hadnt heard Lindsey Graham was going to do that. Lindsey graham. Ive been competing with him for a long time, and hes going to crack that 1 barrier one day. I didnt realize Lindsey Grahams still at it. Its all right. I think Lindsey Grahams a nice guy actually. So it ended strong. What do you think of that . Well, i think im a nice guy too. I think i got 1 . Donald, you beat me. Youre the president. Im the senator. I want to help you. Let it go. Lets move on, and were going to make America Great again. Ainsley you had to get a new cell phone, though; right . Yeah. Its better than giving out my number. Thats progress. Steve progress. From 1 to 100 . Both of you guys are behind a bill to defund the United Nations. If they do not reverse the antiisrael sanction. Senator cruz, explain what youre talking about. Well, you know, as you know, lindsey and i agree on just about everything. Most everything. What brings us together today is an issue that i think really units republicans but it all to unite americans. And thats standing with israel. If you look in the last month what barack obama has done, i think its been nothing short of shameful. It has been striking out against israel. Really showing his true beliefs and the United Nations with his acquiescence passed a rabidly antiisrael, illegal and illegitimate. It declares the steve sure so what do you want to do, senator . So lindsey and i today are filing legislation to end taxpayer funding for the united nation, end it all unless and until they reverse this antiisrael resolution. Ainsley all right. Well be watching. Thank you, senators for joining us this morning. We have more fox and friends straight ahead. Steve and theyre coming together. Back in a moment. vo maybe it was here, when you hit 300,000 miles.
