There is no quiet day in america anymore. Always exciting. And football finally has a final. Steve all right. So if folks are watching right now theyre near the pancake pantry go on down and say hello to brian and get a book and maybe be on tv. Ainsley love the name. Pancake pantry. He was mentioning the president is going to be in nashville. Is he speaking to the American Farm bureau federation, 99th convention that they have had. They have invited the sitting president every single year. First time in 25 years a sitting president has said yes to that invitation. Steve thats right. The last one to go was president George Herbert walker bush. The farmers understanding the president understands the challenges facing them these days. They said the president made it very clear farmers would have a seat at his table. They saved him a seat at the podium. Pete beissues deregulation. State tax that hits farmers a lot. He will talk about a lot of that from his tax reform bill. Reasons why he is going to Rural America when he says i am going to forgotten man. Steve today was going to be the day the president of the United States was going to unveil fake news awards. Pete i cant wait. Steve put it off until next week. There is a lot to do. No doubt he is considering giving Michael Wolff an award for his book that came out. We have heard that, you know, since then, apparently this is a reporter who has used some unscrupulous methods in the past. One of the themes in the Mainstream Media has been there are so many people who are working at the white house, working for this president. His aides who just think he is a nincompoop. Is he in over his head. You know what in the people who actually work with the president were on television this weekend defending him and they dont sound anything like that. By personal experience, i was with the president yesterday at camp david. Im with him almost every day. The president is engaged. He understands the complexity. He asks really difficult questions of our team at cia so we can provide him the information he needs to make good informed policy decision. I work with the president and speak with him multiple times a week. This is a man who didnt become the president by accident. Was he unstable when he passed the tax reform . Was he unstable when we finally hit back at syria and said no more chemical weapons . Was he unstable when we finally put north korea on notice . He is different than any other politician. I can tell you he has the wherewithal to do things that no politician has been able to do and in a good way. Pete contrast these statements especially from rand paul who was no ally of the president to begin with. With gossip that this book is trafficking, its a very different story. The problem is that trafficking in gossip feeds a narrative that so many people on the leftwing media want to believe. Ainsley yeah, watch this. Here is an example example. Not only amplifies the coverage of this but amplifies the questions that the book raises. Look back a year from now and say the warning signs were there and we did not do enough. Hear him put out that quote genius like Richard Nixons im not a crook. His ability to. I think it is credible. It is actually quite frightening for the American People. He is like a child. We have probably written this 500 times. Steve its interesting. So the media goes mental. Thats the headline there. There are stories in the book. I havent read it yet. I have seen news reports who say that people who work in the west wing who they will hear the president Say Something and they will go we have got to think the 25th amendment where the Vice President and the cabinet they essentially have a vote down in the basement. They say okay, he has got to go and then they take over. Michael wolff says they do that all the time. Pete thanks George Stephanopoulos for raising questions about his mental capacity because he has the ability to do that. Joy reid and never trumper joy brooks. People who have always haight you had the president using the tool at their disposal terribly sourced book. They went from obstruction to collusion. Now they are trying mental capacity and we will see how long they push it. But it is very dangerous. They did it to barry goldwater. They did it to Ronald Reagan. Steve they did. Pete did it to george w. Bush and now they are doing to to donald trump. Steve im noticing a theme just republicans. Ainsley professor Alan Dershowitz was on the show yesterday. He didnt vote for him. He said this is the same guy today as he was on the campaign trail. Nothing has changed. Listen. There is only one thing worse than trying to criminalize political differences and thats trying to psychiatriing to accua president being mentally i will without any basis. The it 5th amendment doesnt apply. Everybody knew who donald trump was when they elected him. This idea of diagnosing him instead of opposing him politically 30zs an enormous danger. Ainsley you use the word gossip. Thats exactly what it is. Tabloid news. Reading a book of some guys account who is now bashing the president after he was fired. Now he is apologizing and they are using that as the tellall book. Its like the bible to them. Pete yes. Ainsley it is just gossip. It happens on both sides. Every time there is a democrat, someone write as book about whats happening inside and republicans go crazy about it. And now the same is happening with this guy who leaving the white house and writes a book about the white house and the democrats love it. Pete why are they reliably on incredibly book. Steve he has had to include people on his permanent staff at the white house who are part of the swamp. I have no doubts that they did talk to michael wolfe, they probably said a lot of the stuff thinking it was off the record or whatever. Here is a message to people working at the white house and who feel that way or say those things behind the president s back. Just quit your job. If you are not happy, not completely on board with the president s message, get out of the white house. Why would you do it. Pete great point. Steve why would you say one thing during the day and over cocktails at the hay adams why would you Say Something else . Quit your job. Move on. There are lots of jobs in d. C. Pete plenty of options. Great point. Ainsley hand it over to jillian who has headlines for us. Jillian good morning sheriffs deputy in Washington State killed while responding to suspected home invasion.

Steve republican tax plan was a win for many americans, especially employees at the Companies Offering bonuses, pay raises, and other benefits as a direct result of President Trumps tax reform bill. There on the screen some of the Companies Giving out bonuses. Bank joining that bank over the weekend and joining us now aquesta. Banking business. Started in your basement 11 years ago. Now you are a big multi, hundreds of millions of dollars operation. Why did you want to give your employees bonuses after this . Well, steve, the Tax Reform Act is great for our shareholders but also great for our customers. And we really wanted to directly share that with our employees. We would not have grown from basically a concept 11 years ago to 400 million today without just great employees. And because of that, when the Tax Reform Act was passed, we wanted to share those benefits with our employees. Steve and i understand because you as a business are going to have more money in your pocket, you are actually going to hire some more people as well, right . Well, exactly. We figure this is going to be a pretty good savings for us. We are even though we are 400 million in assets, thats actually very small for banking. We are considered a Community Bank. And this allows us to continue to expand. We have been growing about 20 a year. And at some point you start needing capital. And the tax savings that we get from this allow us to expand even further. Make more loans, which means hiring more people. We expect to hire a good number of people over the coming year. Steve thats terrific. Thats great. I think thats what the president and the republicans intended. But, jim, i heard from a number of democrats, they said this tax cut thing was just going to be a give away to the rich. Doesnt sound like a lot of rich people going to wind up with that at your company. No. We actually dont have any rich people at our company. Again, we are very small. Starting in the basement and moving up from there. Seven branches now. The money we are going to be able to save in tax also directly allow us continue to crease the amount of lending we do. We figure this is about an additional 9 million of lending a year. Which in our small towns help businesses grow or actually even form. Steve surely. Of course your employees are going to wind up 1,000 bonuses and everyone will have at least 15 an hour minimum wage. Jim engel, thank you for joining us from charleston and sharing the good word about your company. Thank you for having me. I really appreciate it. Steve meanwhile on this monday we heard a lot of names thrown out for 2020 candidates. Last night at the Golden Globes. Open perhaps name entered the fray thats ivanka trump on the right. Do you know who is on the left . His mother probably wont be happy. Its a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. With otezla, 75 clearer skin is achievable after just 4 months,.

Outgoing new Jersey Governor Chris Christie thinks he would be occupying 1600 pennsylvania avenue instead telling new jersey. Com in an exit interview as he leaves the governorship he said its incredibly frustrating to think to yourself wow, if this guy were not in the race, we would win this thing. Interesting take. And Nancy Pelosis son is quite the nonpartisan partier. Paul pelosi jr. Posting this photo on instagram hamming it up with ivanka trump at the president s new years eve maralago bash while the post has since been deleted cant be showing that kind of bipartisan. His sister says he may have just been there to play golf. Its all just a misunderstanding. Over to you. Ainsley hollywood elites have a new message dont call them hollywood elites. Listen. This looks like a room privileged hollywood elite and thats fair but everyone in this room knows that hollywood is so much more than that. When you are on a film set you meet hair dresses and camera people and scripts supervisors, most of the jobs on film sets are jobs for people who work long, hard hours. They are American Dream jobs. Those people arent there, thanks to their rich dads except for that one p. A. People in this room worked really hard to get here clearer now than ever before that the women had to work even harder. Ainsley here to react is comedian chad prater. Chad, what did you think about that . Ainsley, before we get into that let me just say go dogs. Our sec is playing in the National Championship tonight. We will all be watching tonight. I will be there. I will watch that i cant say i watch the Golden Globes so much. Everything seth meyers sets is g. O. P gospel truth. Those arent the people we are referring to as hollywood elite when we use that term. What were talking about is people like oprah who want to get up there and people like meryl streep, they want to take this moral high ground and preach to the rest of america about whats right and wrong. And, you know, these political award shows they used to be about the award winners. They are not anymore. Now its kind of like the band playing on the deck of the titanic as the ship sinks because these guys know that when whole deal is following on deaf ears in a big way. Basically the pointy head executives in hollywood have gotten together and said how can we salvage this whole thing. Lets come out and talk about womens empowerment. Lets talk about how we are really not elite. We are the persecuted bunch. I didnt think anybody in america truly believes anyone in hollywood is the persecuted group. Ainsley they have a lot of money in their bank accounts, dont they . They do. Ainsley seth talks about opening monologue said at the white house Correspondence Dinner that President Trump wasnt qualified to become president. Then we fast forward and sees what happens. Then he looks at oprah and says oprah, you will never be president , you do not have what it takes. Nbc they go on social media and they do nothing but respect for our future president , Golden Globes with a picture of oprah. So, nbc look at this. Little bizarre for them to put that up there. What were your thoughts. Maybe she will one day be president of nbc. She is not going to be president of the United States. I know a lot of people have said the same thing about donald trump. Lets face it were talking about a huge, huge difference and, look with all due respect for oprah, and all due respect for speech of women, lets be real here. Donald trump has enjoyed unprecedented first year as president. He has. You cant argue the track record. So so this idea of continually getting up and using these award platforms as a political way to share your opinions and your views and even predict the future, it goes over about as well as barack obama giving a keynote speech at the nra convention. It just rings a little hollow. Ainsley all right chad prater, thanks for joining us this morning. Go dogs. Ainsley roll tide, i like them both. I cant wait to watch. President trumps crack down on immigration must have forgotten about when president clinton said this. We are still a nation of immigrants. We should be proud of it we are also a nation of laws. Ainsley dan bongino didnt forget and he is going to join us lye next. And President Trump heads to nashville today but brian is already there with some of our friends.

Ainsley today President Trump is visiting nashville for the second time since becoming president to outline his economic road map for Rural America. In first big policy address since tax reform passed. Steve what do the folks think . Brian kilmeade has been talking to them. He is live at the pancake pantry in nashville where he has a rectangular table with some folks who are going to talk taxes. Brian . Brian yeah. Absolutely. So a lot of people wondering here in nashville in particular, a Booming Community that has very low state tax, how does the tax plan at the federal level affect people in the Community Level . Half suburban, half rural about 25 miles outside of nashville cedar stone bank. These are executives there. Which means the bank isnt open. They have the keys. Mcdonald. Bob susan and bob. Before they start the day usually on the treadmill. They decided to come down and talk to us. Cedar stone bank. The ultimate Community Bank the president passes this big tax bill. I asked you how did it effect you and what is your reaction . Big impact, brian. Whatever is good for our customers is good for our company. So when this tax law changed and we had lower taxes. Less government in our lives. More money in our pocket, it helped all of our customers. Whether its individuals or businesses. Brian in what way, guys, and susan, how has it affected you . Terms of numbers . Hired more given out incentives . Lending more . We will be doing all of that we expect, brian, this tax change will impact our banks bottom line by about 250,000. We will take that money and put it right back in our community. We are going to hire more people. We are going to put we are going to spawn sophomore baseball teams and make more donations. Brian johnny, you also do know the community. You are a bank that knows people around. Whether its a nonprofit or person looking to expand their home. Will this enable you to do more . Oh, absolutely. You know, banking is all about relationships. And part of our job is to educate the customers. And try and let them know that this new tax law is for them. There is a lot of miscommunication out there that its only for the rich. Thats wrong. Weave see where it is going to impact the smallest and largest of customers. Brian cedar street bank is going to be pouring it back in. If our community is successful our bank is successful and this tax change will do that. Brian by the way, this has been torture. I said you cannot touch the breakfast until after the segment. By the way great job here at the pancake pantry presenting all. This good news is, guys, now you cannot only go back to work but can you have your breakfast. We are going to do it. Brian thanks so much. Bash t back to you in the studio. We will be back with sonny perdue in a moment. Is he necessary ling in behind us. Ainsley pancake pantry. What a cute name. Steve bring in dan bongino former new york city cop. Secret service agent. Host of the dan bongino show he joins us from florida. Good morning to you. Good morning. Good to be here. Steve good to have you. Dan, over the weekend at camp david, apparently the idea of a welfare reform came up, paul ryan really would like to see the country do something about entitlements because it is such a big chunk of change, 52 on every dollar goes to socalled entitlements. Apparently he wants it and Mitch Mcconnell on the other side says not time for it the president is saying we will see. Right now thats not my top priority. What do you think . You know, steve, this is a ground ball argument for the republicans. Listen, most people in the United States have no problem with some form of government. I would rather it be at the local level but some form of government providing a back stop for people who are genuinely in hard times. That polls relatively well. Let me tell what you doesnt poll relatively well. Having the government provide a hammock for you for the rest of your life, for your phone, your rent, food, anything else you need. Listen, steve, there are people working really hard right now to unload a lot of money to support a man moth size government. If you are going to take money from that government, at the very least there should be drug testing. There should be time limits on it if you are ablebodied, you should work. People work for a living. This is really hard. We are relatively hot economy. You have to find a job eventually. And incentivizing people to not find a job by paying them to not work is utterly outrageous. I have a bunch of personal examples on that. Ainsley i want you to talk about that. It was created to allow people to get back on their feet. Take a few months, look for a job and get back on your feet if you are ablebodied. Someone who is able to work. Tell us your motherinlaw story. You have been on our show before and its pretty powerful. Yeah. I mean, she is an incredible woman. I never like telling this story because i always get a little chocketd up when i do it. She came here as an immigrant from colombia with nothing, ainsley, zero. Like no money at all. Spoke no english. She works her butt off cleaning planes. She takes the airplane peanuts from the plane to give to the kids for food. She used to sleep on the mattress with one mattress with her three children. My wife obviously being one of them at the time like heads, tails. Why do i tell that you . She could hear my wifes stomach at night growling. She would tell me it was the most painful thing she heard. She took opportunity from america not the check from america and ran with it. She is now one of the most amazingly successful women i have ever met in my entire life. She is a homeowner. She has a nice income she has provided for herself. Do you know why . She committed to the American Dream. Not a check from the american taxpayer early on. I just wish we would embrace that more as a country, the idea of opportunity not the idea of providing people with check as a way out of opportunity. Its nonsense. Pete absolutely. The power of Legal Immigration has fed this country forever. People striving to come here. While the challenge of ilLegal Immigration has existed for many, many decades. As we talk about a potential deal on capitol hill, the democrats want daca. The president wants his wall. As we look at this deal, we rolled some vape, it turns out people say things it lives forever. The democrats were for the wall before they were against it. Listen to bill clinton at 1996 and senator obama in 2006. Tonight i announce i will sign an executive order to deny federal contracts to businesses that hire illegal immigrants. Let me be very clear about this. We are still a nation of immigrants. We should be proud of it. We are also a nation of laws. Authorize badly needed funding for fences and better security along our borders. Yes, we need tougher Border Security and stronger enforcement measures. Yes, we need more resources for customs and Border Agents and more detention beds. Sounds a lot like donald trump. What changed . Steve im confused. Pete what changed . Democrats committed to antagonist strategy in the post clinton era. Lets be candid about this right now. Immigration for the democrats post clinton has never been about compassion or helping immigrants. Its always been about raw political power and votes. They believe demographics is destiny. They need people to replace the dying huddle class voters that they are losing that have moved over to the trump type candidates and republicans who represent the working class and they need to replace them with immigrants that they can get on the government doll. That is all this is about. Can i prove it to you. When they put poison pills in these immigration documents the republicans and say things like listen we will let people in the country as immigrants. They cant vote for a certain period of time if they come here illegally, the democrats say no every time. Steve dan, exit question. Does donald trump ultimately get the wall or part of the wall . I will fell you what, if he picks a hill to die on, this is the one. This is unbelievablably popular with the American People. I think he gets it. If the democrats want to shut down the government over it, good luck with that in the 2018 mid terms. Steve all right. He is joining us today from the warmer than we are at state of florida. Dan, thank you very much. Ainsley thanks, dan. Pete jillian mele has a few additional headlines for us. Jillian lets get you caught up on news of the day starting with. This police are desperately searching for a missing College Football reporter who vanished after sending a terrifying text.

Heisman trophy winner, College Football hall of fame running back and one of georgias greatest players of all time. Its an honor to interview him former georgia bulldog herbal walker. Thanks for joining us. We appreciate it as a freshman in 1980, you were part of the last georgia Bulldogs Team that won the georgia championship. Now the back field in georgia, nic chub, sony, some say the best duo. How will they do against the crimson tide tonight . Georgia is going to do well. I think georgia is going to surprise a lot of people. I think surprise people this whole year. And, you know, i said it at the second game of the season when they beat notre dame i said this team they are committed. They are committed to each other that you had a lot of guys coming back to play. And they have proven the reason why. And they are the National Championship playing a team like alabama and i think tonight people are going to see a team. They look just alike. Prototype for each other. Because georgia is a rough team just like alabama. So its going to be a good game. Pete the president is going to be at the game tonight. You will be there as hand rathehonorary cocaptain at the team. What does it mean to you to have the president there. Im excited about him being here. We will meet tonight. I havent seen him in a while. A lot of people dont know i played for him in the usfl and we have been friends ever since. We still Work Together on some things. We did before he became the big man on campus as you may say. And so tonight imic im excited to see him. Im glad is he at the game because he loves football. And its sad at whats happened with all the kneeling and standing and all that because donald trump is a great man. Hes a great president. I wish people could understand that. Pete herbal, yoherschel, you he stood with the president back in november you took a stand against nfl protesters taking a knee. You offered a new Chevy Silverado with individual exemplary record of service in the military or First Responders. Tell us about an update about this truck give away that you want to give to those who give so much to this country .

So rocky ridge give and register by the end of february 28th, they get a chance to win a new silverado truck that is very well. I think you guys may have a picture of it we have got to do something for those people. I think the president is getting a raw deal. One thing thats great about the president that we are forgetting that this country is the best country in the world because of our First Responders, because of our military. And because of that, we voted for him to be president. Thats what people got to understanding. This country is a country of laws. I have heard bill clinton earlier say that. Thats what we have got to respect. I think people are forgetting about that respect. I say respect the white house, guys. We voted for him to be president. Because of that, we have to respect him as our president. Pete herschel, i love that message. I appreciate your support for our First Responders and our military great stuff. Go dogs tonight.

The man he chose as secretary of treasurer former governor of georgia and georgia bulldog sony purdue. Thank you so much. You are introducing the president today. I am. Brian did you this in april of 2017 he gave you a task. What was that task force supposed to do. On the day he swore me in, brian, he called me together. We had a round table of farmers. He charged me with an executive order of rural prosperity. Improving agricultural swargses across the country. We spent 180 days with 22 federal agencies talking about actionable items that we can accomplish. Brian as a governor, he actually got things done. Real quick, some of the things that matter to the people in the Farming Community are . Well, we talked about broad band connectivity. Rural farms and farmhouses need the same type of connectivity we have in urban areas. Brian opioid addiction is priority for you. You are a victim of your own success. Good growing season keep the prices down. Farmers are hurting. Is the president addressing this at all in his tax plan. Think again, thats where the trade part comes. In thats why people are anxious about nafta and other trade negotiations here. I believe its usda. Our responsibility if they grow it, we are selling it. They are pronafta, you want to see changes. You told the president dont rip it up. No, nafta needs to be modernized like anything 25 years ago. We think it would be bad policy if we withdrew. You told the president that . Yes. Um. Um. Brian mr. Secretary, who is the president you know . Is he a guy who listens to what you are saying . Absolutely. This president is a bold, decisive, focused Decision Maker but he also leaves a little door open in the back for his mind to be changed. He listens and i think the nafta discussion was a great example of that. Are you looking forward to this today . I am, its going to be a big day. Brian 7,000 people there. Secretary of agriculture will do the introduction. I know the president values your insight. Thank you. Brian coming up next hour Alan Dershowitz. Maybe ainsley will sing.

Ainsley 7,000 farmers are going to thereby to hear him. As we said in the open this is the first time in 25 years that a sitting president has said yes to that invitation. They ask them every single year. Steve he said yes to the address. Ainsley many of them got him elected. The majority of farmers probably voted for him. Thats central america. Thats what america is made of. Pete i have only been thinking about chicken friday steak since hearing that song and they do it in nashville so well i bet. Someone might be able to bring us chicken friday steak. You always ask me what im eating. I need to ask you what the specialty is on the menu there. Brian right. Im not giving that away yet, pete, i know you want me to. I want to lead people all the way to the end 8 30 eastern time before i tell them. Want a tshirt they range from 12 to 26.

I got here an hour and a half early just for you people and the pancake pantry is nestled between vanderbilt and bell months university. Thi months belmont university. Steve what is their specialty . What is their breakfast specialty . Brian if you had a specialty, what would youre specialty be . What are you known for . Sweet potato pan cakes. Steve that sounds good. Brian with cinnamon cream syrup. Steve brian, order one right now so can you have one in half an hour. Brian guy, can i have a sweet potato hand cake and have a half an hour to make it you 30 minutes. Short order cooks need 30 minutes . Thats like a vacation. You stuck me in a place that is one of the Fastest Growing cities in all of america. 100 people move here a day. Many of which come here. Most of these Small Business owners i talk to and been here now for three or four days with my family. I was here friday and saturday. Everyone is booming.

And he is going to go first president in 25 years to address the farmers bureau. 7,000 people will show up and be talking about what they want from the president and what he has already given them and how, as you guys just said and pete you just mentioned. They helped put the president in office, probably more than any other group in the country. They believe in him. So, the billionaire won over the working man and the working women. And thats going to be the theme today. Steve the state of tennessee went for trump 6040. Brian, we will be checking in with you a little later on about the sweet potato pancakes. Brian just me trying to try it. It doesnt travel well. You have to go with me on this. Steve thats the whole idea. Ainsley did you hear any live music over the weekend . Brian john witch invited mejohe to his Beautiful House whiskey. He came one whiskey. We should be working on some type of liquor i dont know cognac. Part of the proceeds of this whiskey goes to folds of honor. I felt like a seinfeld episode where everyone i knew was in the same area. Redneck i believe its redneck whiskey. And by the way he is opening up another place. Ainsley i love it. Brian is he opening up a place right on broadway in nashville. Of the guy is an entrepreneur. He is a genius. He is really good at music. Steve thats music city. Ainsley redneck rivera whiskey is what gavin is telling us. Brian redneck rivera because gavin knows whiskey. Steve brian, see you in a little bit. After the president flies out of nashville, he is going to be going to the College Championship tonight. Ainsley big game. Steve alabama versus georgia. We understanding apparently they are trying to work out something where the president of the United States tries to go down to the field for the national anthem. Ainsley wow. Steve there wont actually be any players kneeling because the players will be in the locker room for the anthem but they are trying to work it out. If the president is not on the field, apparently he will be highlighted in some fashion. Ainsley can you imagine that crowd is going to go crazy. This is alabama and georgia. They are playing in atlanta. If the president of the United States comes out there, i have a feeling is he going to get a great reaction. Pete contrast the fans there that love him with the folks in the swamp who still surround him. Steve plenty of them. Pete there is a book, i dont know if you know this. This there is a book that came out fire and fury about this president. Turns out a lot of anonymous sources. A lot of gossip and innuendo. We went and rolled yesterday on the sunday shows a lot of people who actually work for the president came out and said well, we work for him and we have a very different view of how he operates. Take a listen. My personal experience, i was with the president yesterday at camp david. Im with him almost every day. The president is engaged. I understands the perplexity and asks really difficult questions at the cia so we can give him the information he needs to make policy decisions. I speak with the president multiple times a week. This is a man who didnt become president by accident. Was he unstable when he passed the tax reform . Was he unstable when we finally hit back at syria and said no more chemical weapons . Was he unstable when we finally put north korea on notice . He is different than any other politician. I can tell you he has the wherewithal to do things no politician has been able to do and in a good way. Steve okay. So thats what some people who work with the president all the time. Ainsley defending him. Steve in washington. Thats how they describe him. Meanwhile, you click over to some other channels and some people on this channel as well have been critical of the president and his mental stability. Watch this. Not only amplifies the coverage of this but also amplifies the questions that the book raises. We can look back a year from now and say the warning signs were were there and we did not do enough. When you hear him put out that tweet stable genius rings out Richard Nixons im not a crook. His ability to information impulse true. I think this book is credible and quite frightening for the American People. He is like a child. We have probably all written this 500 times. Such a predictable script. Its the former clinton operative. Its the liberal in joy reid, never trumpner david brooks. All of which have loathed this president from the beginning. All of which have gone from russian collusion to object destruction. Now to mental stability diagnosing him. Process. The guy has never achieved anything in his life, right . Never processed anything, never made anything happen. Its unbelievable. Ainsley the president was at camp david yesterday. Evidence came out and said they did the same thing to Ronald Reagan and then senator tom cotton said they have done, this the liberal media has done this to only republicans. Listen. The media made similar claims about Ronald Reagan and george bush what they all have in common is they are republican president s. When i worked with the president and the people around him and republican senators, he has been an active, engaged and effective leader. Steve one of the main sources for this particular book was steve bannon. Steve bannon came out with a statement yesterday, some people have described it as an apology. It wasnt really an apology so much as a clarification. And what he did say was he regretted the timing because he didnt come out to clarify the comments regarding don jr. Soon enough. He said don jr. Is a patriot and good man. He said the comments about the meeting with the russians were aimed at Paul Manafort he said there was no russian collusion and he regretted calling don jr. Unpatriotic but at the same time he did not specifically apologize. I was reading online one commentser said he was trying to put a band oid over a knife wound in the back of the president last night Golden Globe Awards seth meyers was hosting it. 2011 white house Correspondence Dinner i was saying President Trump was unqualified. Here we are. Here we are now he is the president. He looks at oprah. He says you will never be president. You dont have what it takes. Steve reverse psychology. Ainsley nbc tweets this out nothing but respect for our future president. Golden globes. Pete our president. Steve that was 8 07 p. M. Eastern. Ainsley before she got the award. Steve during seth meyers. Ainsley opening. Steve during his openings monologue. First time seen in a cut away. Right after that suddenly esquire says the same thing, w. Magazine. Fox 4 kansas city said seriously cant oprah be our president . And whats interesting is she has said, said last night apparently she has no plans to run for president. But then the l. A. Times talked to her longtime companion Steadman Graham and he said that if the people wanted her, she would run. Ainsley she would do it. Pete im told by the experts there is some sort of difference between nbc, nbc news and msnbc. If you look at all of that there sure doesnt look like one. If nbc is tweeting out our president about oprah. Could you imagine them doing that about any republican ever . Steve, please . Steve no. No. Pete all right. Ainsley joe biden for the 2020 ticket or oprah. Let us know what you think, please. Friends foxnews. Com. Steve nbc didnt say what year she would be our future president , did they . Just our future president. Meanwhile 7 11 in new york city and time for a fox news alert. Jillian we are following breaking news. Get right to that a sheriffs deputy in Washington State killed while responding to a suspected home invasion. The Pierce County Sheriffs Office says he was shot by a man during a foot chase in fredrickson about 40 miles south of seattle. One suspect on the loose at this hour and considered armed and dangerous. The sheriff with an emotional call to end the violence against police. This is something that happens too often nationally. This is something that is wrong. This is something that attacks our civic fabric. They put themselves at risk for everybody else and too often they are harmed in the process. Jillian another suspect found dead no word yet on how he died. We will keep you updated with lawmakers returning to work on capitol hill President Trump now ready to be tackle one of the key issues he has long promised to fix. The nation of china is responsible for almost half of americas trade deficit. Jillian politico will reporting president roll trade. White house officials telling fox news just moments ago that its premature to discuss any penalties. Trump has long accused the nation of unfair practices. Recently suggesting china illegally sold oil to north korea. Well, excitement for President Trumps fake news awards is so off the charts that, guess what, we have to wait another week to find out who won. Fake news. Its phony stuff. It didnt happen. Fake news. Fake news. [laughter] fake news. Jillian President Trump announcing the delay on twitter writing, quote the fake news awards those going to the most corrupt and biased of the Mainstream Media will be presented to the losers on wednesday, january 17th rather than this coming monday. The interest in, and importance of, these awards is far greater than anyone could have anticipated. Ainsley i think what happened after the book now he has to find a place for the author. I dont think the author was probably on the list when he originally came up. Steve will there be a trophy. Ainsley a big loser trophy. Pete will the losers be there to receive the award. Steve present them to the White House Press pool. Pete i hope does. Ainsley the media refuses to talk about the medias president s accomplishments, too busy obsessing over that book. What do they need to do to mess message out. Matt schlapp is here next. Steve girl uses ly called usaa e we called the police. Usaa was there handson very quick very prompt. I feel like were being handled as people that actually have a genuine need. Were the webber family and we are usaa members for life. Usaa, get your insurance quote today. My doctor recommended i switch to miralax. On, stimulant laxatives make your body go by forcefully stimulating the nerves in your colon. Miralax is different. It works with the water in your body to hydrate and soften. Unblocking your system naturally. Miralax. Eye grab a centrum and join in. Repeat daily. Fundamentally the core colonel of this story is President Trump to hold office. To say he is cuckoo for cocoa puffs. Actually just embolden him. In my interactions with him he doesnt repeat these stories. He totally gets the policy. Steve that is matt schlapp right there. Despite attempts by conservatives like him to focus on the president s victories, the media cant stop using the new book to attack the president. Ainsley so what do republicans need to do to get their message out . Matt schlapp joins us now the chairman of the American Conservative Union and former Deputy Assistant and political director for george w. Bush. Thank you, matt, for being with us. Good to see you. Good to be with you guys, good morning. Ainsley how did this happen . How did have you steve bannon in the white house come out and meet with this reporter. Now he is saying he regrets it trying to clarify what he meant by all these comments. How did this happen . Yeah. You know, people talk about chaos in the white house. And we all have to admit there had to be a certain amount of chaos at the beginning of this administration or they wouldnt have let somebody like this little would he seely journalist in. He is not going to have the president s best interest. I would be okay with it if he was going to at least write a fair and balanced account. This is just nothing but a popolemic to harm the president s. This book does not accurately characterize his views. Good for steve for doing that they all deserve the president s scorn at the fact that they ever corroborated with this guy. Steve you know, he feels bad about it, according to the clarification he sent out. But, in the meantime, while everybody is focusing on this, and im talking about the Mainstream Media, were talking a lot about it as well, nobody is really talking about how this past week was the first week of the trump tax cuts and suddenly americans have more money in their pocket because less withholding is being taken out. Yeah. You know, policy is about offense and defense. You have got to be on defense when people attack you. You are right, steve, we have got to get on offense those of us who support the president s agenda and talk about, let me bring up something thats really interesting. You know, probably the last 20 years, we havent had a year like we had in 2017. Republicans have been trying to get drilling in anwr for a generation. Think about that. Thats pretty amazing. We have been spending a decade trying to repeal obamacare. We just ripped the imuts out of obamacare. We actually cut dramatically changed the Corporate Tax structure on taxes for the first time even before Ronald Reagan was president. I mean, this is pretty amazing. Steve thats big stuff. We have to keep talking about it the American People when they see it hit their paychecks. And when they see it affect their lives, they are going to be excited about it. Ainsley all right, matt, thank you so much for joining us. Congressman brian mast knows what its like to fight for our country. He lost both of his legs in afghanistan and he is trying to make history for his fellow veterans. Hes going to join us live next and stand my ground and we covered it, july first, twentyfifteen. Talk to farmers. We know a thing or two because weve seen a thing or two. We are farmers. Bumpadum, bumbumbumbum ainsley here is some quick headlines for you u. N. Ambassador nikki haley stands by President Trumps call to disarm north koreas growing nuclear program. There is no turn around. What he has basically said is yes, there could be a time where we talk to north korea but a lot of things have to happen before that actually takes place. They have to stop testing. They have to be willing to talk about banning their nuclear weapons. Those things have to happen. Ainsley this as delegates from north and south korea plan to hold formal talks tomorrow. Ainsley and as the Iranian Regime cracks down on protesters, its banning teaching english in Elementary Schools now. Officials say learning the language too early would trigger western cultural invasion. The demonstrators are upset over the iranian economy, at least 22 people there have died. Pete . Pete we could use a little western cultural invasion in our own country but i digress. They said it couldnt be done after a full year of bureaucratic red tape the countrys First Congressional Office inside a v. A. Facility officially opens for business. Occupying that new office is our next guest g. O. P. Congressman and Army Veteran Brian mast lost both legs in ied blast while deployed in afghanistan. He joins us now. Congressman, thanks for being here. Its a great idea. So many guys and gals who try to access the v. A. End up going to their congressman. You end up working on those things. You say lets marry the two. Put our Congressional Office inside the v. A. Where did this idea come from and how long did it take to make it happen . As you mentioned this has been a year in the making. This idea came to fruition because this is the biggest stack of case work that i get is veterans and people providing services in the v. A. Coming to my office saying there is an issue. The second biggest stack of case work that we get is those coming to our office saying these are all the positive things that are going on in the v. A. And we want to be witness to that. I want to see all of the positive things that are going on there so can i make sure that they are replicated and i want to see all the negative things going on there immediately so we can light a fire under suspects butt to make sure it never happens again and make sure that the problem is fixed right away. Thats the goal of this. Pete you yourself will be in that office on mondays. Were they open to this idea at the West Palm Beach facility . Like i said, this has been a year in the making. There has been a lot of hurdles to go to. When i brought this up to David Shulkin he was reaccept toif it he started working with this immediately. We got it to fruition, this is going to be a better path forward to advocate for all of our veterans. When you look at what goes on in the v. A. , the tens of thousands of veterans that are there that have to get transportation just to go to the v. A. Facility and when they get there they have to be pushed around in a wheelchair or they need somebody there to assist them to. Give them a onestop shop where they can see their representative, where they can know that theyre being advocated for, thats an important thing. They know when they see us there, hopefully they can see all 435 representatives in v. A. S across the country. They are going to know they are not forgotten. Pete brian, i love that a its a testament of what you went to washington to do and also a sad testament how many problems still exist at the v. A. The fact you are fighting for it is huge. As a war fighter i have to ask you a question on. So news of the day about north korea. There has been a lot of talk about the president s rhetoric. Has his rhetoric around north korea been helpful or hurtful in denuclearizing that dangerous country . I think its helpful in this respect. North korea knows that they are on the president s agenda. And the whole world knows that the president doesnt make empty promises. Its something thats been proven both with domestic policy and with foreign policy. And i think its speaking directly to the heart of the leaders that are in north korea to know that there if there is going to be a red line, its not going to be allowed to be crossed. Pete you live in the south. You have got to be for alabama or georgia. Are you making a call for tonight . I stick with our florida teams. Pete come on. Im going to be supporting and cheering for whoever comes away as the victor and congratulating them. Its always painful for me to not see one of my own teams there. Pete you are right no gators or sim nos. Thank you. Alan dershowitz says we aremie generation. How do would fix it . Its an important question. He joins us live on set next. Puts me at greater risk for heart attack or stroke. Can one medicine help treat both blood sugar and cardiovascular risk . I asked my doctor. He told me about noninsulin victoza®. Victoza® is not only proven to lower a1c and blood sugar, but for people with type 2 diabetes treating their cardiovascular disease, victoza® is also approved to lower the risk of major cv events such as heart attack, stroke, or death. And while not for weight loss, victoza® may help you lose some weight. announcer victoza® is not for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Do not take victoza® if you have a personal or Family History of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza® or any of its ingredients. Stop taking victoza® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck or symptoms of a serious allergic reaction such as rash, swelling, difficulty breathing, or swallowing. Serious side effects may happen, including pancreatitis. So stop taking victoza® and call your doctor right away if you have severe pain in your stomach area. Tell your doctor your medical history. Gallbladder problems have happened in some people. Tell your doctor right away if you get symptoms. Taking victoza® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. Common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased appetite, indigestion, and constipation. Side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. Change the course of your treatment. Ask your doctor about victoza®. They cahow many of em . E, sir we dont know. Dozens. All right lets teach these freaks some manners good luck out there, captain thanks but i dont need luck, i have skills. I dont have my keys. on intercom all hands. We are looking for the captains keys again. They are on a silver carabiner. Oh, this is bad. As long as people misplace their keys, you can count on geico saving folks money. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. We are miseducating a whole generation of future leaders on our College Campuses today. Were teaching them intolerance. Were encouraging shutting down dissenting views. I am terrified not about the president. I am terrified about 20 or 30 years from now when these young people who have been taught not to tolerate diverse views become our leaders. Steve did you watch that show last night on fox called wise guys . Excellent. It was shot in las vegas with, among others, dr. Alan dershowitz. You know him. A law school professor. A harvard guy, lifelong democrat author of the book trumped up. Good morning to you. Good morning. Steve how do we get to this place where College Campuses are now doing, what . Well, first, we need to encourage dissent on College Campuses. You know, when i was a kid they tried to censor us. That was joe mccarthy. That was the right. Today its the hard left that tries to censor the center, conservatives, people who try to espouse conservative values. There arent enough College Professors who stand up for the right of dissent. The students are doing it. They are doing a great job. They are not getting the support of the faculty or administrators. Ainsley how do you fix this intolerance 101. First of all, you fight back. You never ever allow the bullies and thats what these are. These are bullies. So student groups and some of the faculty groups. They try to shut you down. They scream and yell when you speak. They protest when you come on campus. Look, im a centrist liberal. Every time i speak on a campus there are protests, efforts, shut him down. Dont let him speak. Ainsley students worry about retaliation and so do professors. If did you go against what the cool is preaching you could get fired and get an f as a grade. Not so much what the school is preaching what some hard left professors are preaching. They are a minority. But they are the loudest minority and remember, its these radical lefties that can shut the school down. Thats why they are so privatennefrightened of them. Pete are they really the minority. 35 of the 50 history professors were registered democrats left of center. Gotten extreme. Baptized in hard left are now the professors to her question, how do you go in and changes this complex. First of all the fact there are Many Democrats i agree with that if we want real diversity we have to defer thdiversify not on race ad gender. The liberal democrat like me is the subject, they hate me more than they hate conservatives we are the ones who might be able to influence the students and we are the ones might be able to shut down. That kind of intolerance is not accepted. I will tell you its the administrators who dont have the courage to stand up to these students because they know these students could make their lives miserable. Steve it would be hard to have a litmus test we are going to hire a certain amount of democrats and republicans. Everyone should be for freedom of speech. Get professors writing articles against freedom of speech there is a professor at nyu. Number of professors saying whats the big deal about freedom of speech we know the truth capital t, capital t. Pete there are examples of beach head of conservatives. There is another view. Have to get together on this. Its liberals and conservatives together who are being silenced by the extremes, the extremes on the left and there are some extremes on the right that people charlottesville, obviously didnt want to hear dissenting views. I think its the responsibility of liberals like me to take on the radical left. Responsibility of conservatives to take on the radical right. And the conservatives are doing a better job. Petes petes charlottesville didnt have tenure though. Ains running with the narrative that the president is not mentally fit to be in the white house. Is there some damage there . Its very dangerous. I have railed against the criminalization of political difference. Its getting worse. The psychiatristization of political difference is much more dangerous. Its what they did in russia. Its what they did in china. Its what they did in a apartheid south africa. If you dont like a candidate. First lock them up. If you cant lock him up. Commit him to a mental hospital. Professor at yale named brandi lee who has been leading the campaign saying the president is dangerous. He has access to the nuclear trigger. We may even have to confine him against his will under a kind of commitment law. Imagine how dangerous that would be and, you know, psychiatrists are notoriously bad at predicting violence. Ainsley when is he not even their patient. Remember, what they are looking at are things they knew about since he was elected president. I didnt like what i saw necessarily so i did what you do in a democracy, you vote for the candidate you prefer, i preferred hillary clinton. I knew about her, i knew about him. I made a balanced judgment. You dont lock them up. You dont put them in mental hospitals if you dont agree with them. So dangerous to democracy. Steve allen, so many people on the left are looking at the Michael Wolff book and talking about how some aids in the west wing said we should consider the 25th amendment because the boss not good upstairs. Explain the 25th amendment. 25th amendment is designed for when somebody has a stroke or somebody is unconscious perhaps what happened when president wilson was president. He had a sear quaws stroke. Its not designed for differences about a persons emotional makeup. First, the Vice President has to invoke it. Steve which would not happen. If the president disputes it you need two thirds of both houses of congress. Forget about it. It would happen only if any president. Im not talking about a particular one, had a major psychotic break. Look, we once had a secretary of defense his name is forester, he jumped out of the window of the walter reed center. He thought the communists were coming after him. He was the secretary of defense. Okay. Thats a proper basis for removing somebody from office. Not disagreement about policies, politics, style, even emotional approach to problems. You have a president who says i have a Bigger Nuclear button than you do. Oh, by the way, one of the things she talks about thats a symptom of his Mental Illness is that he recognized jerusalem as the capital of israel and so did the majority of the senate and majority of the house and so did i support that am i getting locked up next . Pete we might to. Steve this president forget about it. Its not going to happen. Unless god for bid any president has a stroke or anything like this. Taking what he ran on and thats why he was elected president and using that to invoke the 25th amendment would undercut the basic intent of the framer. Pete you are a wise guy. My mother always said to me dont be a wise guy. Ainsley you were last night. Steve for an hour. Pete thank you. Thank you. Ainsley hand it over to jillian who has breaking news for us.

Steve President Trump in washington, d. C. This morning following a working weekend at camp david hunkered down with as you can see in the image republican lawmakers and cabinet secretaries hammering out an aggressive 2018 agenda. Ainsley what is in store for the new year White House Office of management and budget director mill mulvaney spent the weekend at camp david. He joins us now. Thank you for joining us. Steve good morning. Ainsley what were you going to say. Welcome to a balmy washington, d. C. Steve its 21 degrees there. Ainsley what did you talk about in that room. A couple different things. We have immediate priorities. Obviously we is a to have a funding bill by the end of this month to keep the government open. We will do that we also spent a good bit of time talking about daca. Fairly widely reported. We also talked about the other things we would like to try to accomplish this year. The president and many folks in the senate especially are interested in talking about infrastructure bill. We will continue discussions on that. The house is interested in trying to figure out a way to put work requirements into welfare reform. Thats absolutely critical. Were running out of workers. The economy is so good we need more people to go back to work. It was a very productive meeting. I think it will be a good year. Pete mick, how bright is the red line for daca. Visa as well as chain migration and visa lottery program. The democrats a lot of bluster how committed they are to daca. How firm will this president fight for that wall . Two different pieces on that. Number one, there is 1. 6 billion in the request for this year. Thats the 2018 funding bill that we have to take up before the end of january. The president is absolutely committed to that. Thats part one. Part 2, which is the larger wall. That 1. 6 billion doesnt build the whole wall, obviously. About 18 billion to finish the southern Border Security. The president is absolutely committed to having that as part of a larger daca agreement. So its really two pieces. 1. 000000000 for some money for some wall this year. And then a larger agreement for the entire wall for the entire Border Security package. Steve so you are huferddled with republicans. The republicans are all on the same page. But, mic, you know, the democrats are going to try at every opportunity, including this potential government shut down to try to get a daca deal because they feel thats their leverage if the president wants the wall, wants to keep the government open, wants to do anything they have got to deal with daca. Yeah. Lets remember why we even have to ing the democrats into this discussion. The house would be relatively easy to pass a bill to fund the government without addressing daca. But we have to have 60 votes in the senate, which means we have to have democrat support. I laugh when the democrats say we dont want to shut the government down next word out of their mouth is but. There are folks in the Democratic Party who are interested in shutting the government down over daca. Again, i dont think its going to come to that. Pete pete are the democrats interested in collaborating in getting to 60. So much interest in resistance. Will they be seen as collaborators in the trump agenda if they vote for something in any way benefit this president. Thats the real question. We hear them say they want to work on bipartisan basis. The question is are they even willing to consider giving this president any success at all. They sore heavily invested in obstructions. You seize what theyre doing on nominees and judges. Can they do anything that could allow donald trump to claim success . I dont think their leadership can i dont think the folks who are high up in the party can maybe some of the rank and file senators who are worried about reelection might. Steve all right. Mick, before did you go, i know you talked about legislative agenda for 2018. Im sure the president talked a little bit about that book. He did. I mean, its obviously false. I talked to the guy for about half an hour. I remember talking to him in march. I think he put two sentences about me in the book both of which were inaccurate. It made me wonder if i talked to the guy for half an hour and he only put two sentences isentences in my guess Everything Else he put in not consistent with the narrative he wanted to write that book was written long before he talked to anybody. Is he out trying to sell books. Its a bunch you have trash. Thats the journalism these days perhaps. Steve sad state of affairs. Not on every channel and not on every outlet. We appreciate that. Ainsley thank you. Steve all right. Meanwhile, media wont stop obsessing over the book. Trying to take down the president. But cia director mike pompeo is firing back with some fury of his own. Hear from him in about 11 minutes. Pete the president heading to nashville today our own Brian Kilmeade is theyre there. Possibly eating some sweet potato pan cakes. Ainsley today our president is visiting nashville for the second time since becoming president to outline his economic road map for Rural America and big policy address since tax reform passed. Steve Brian Kilmeade is at the pancake pantry in nashville. He was serving up food even though he is not wearing a hair net. Brian, good morning. Brian no, i promise not.

Nbc joining the question on twitter, nothing for respect for our future president. To tyrants and victims, i want to say that i value the press more than ever before. Pass, and intercepted by ramsey.

Where they say he might be on the field. Steve for the national anthem. Ainsley oh, my goodness, what a fun game to go to. That is two big southern schools going up against each other, georgia versus alabama and actually Brian Kilmeade, youre sitting here for brian, such acute a cute name. Beautiful area and about 45 minutes to line, its like other seven days a week, wrapped around this place even on monday. We have everybody here two hours early and, boy, do they love to start their week two hours early even though its for fox friends, its fantastic, the president for the first time, first time in 25 years any president has addressed the farm bureau at this convention, so its going to be exciting, about 7,000 people and they are going Start Building off the fact that the tax plan is going to affect farmers, remember the debt tax, when the farmers passed away, 40 of income was going to the government, therefore a lot of the farms are being destroyed, 10 milliondollars ceiling and love the fact that Small Businesses will be affected by this. I believe the president will have friendly crowd when he comes back. These guys are very friendly, marina and natalia, you get ainsleys book. She sent ahead of time. Hi, girls. Brian by the way, they gave us awards. Ainsley they they are so cute. What grade are you . Brian what grade are you . Fourth grade and sixth grade. Very tall for their age. A lot of responsibility. This is almost diagonal, they are not even moving. Have a bite, let us know. Youre in a diner. Ainsley no syrup on it. Pete i need to call you something. Brian i have not given you a nickname, pete, i heard you rejected the nick name. Very good. Very good. You to understand, you have to be ready for carbs in the morning. Too much emphasis in the stomach have bacon. Ainsley go dance it off in one to have bars already. Are they open up already . Ainsley so much money. We walked into one bar, Everybody Loves live music, we walk in to hear music, i found ladies room downstairs, there was another band, a whole other band in another level. They all try to get famous, young talented musicians go there and get into bars and a lot are discovered that way. Steve its music city. Meanwhile lets talk about this, at tend of the workweek last week we were telling you about Michael Wolffs new book fire and fury, hes not a reliable reporter, there are a bunch of inaccuracies in it, we had mick mulvaney, the budget guy for the president who has a new parttime job over consumer safety as well and he said that according to what he has heard and what he has seen regarding his comments that he made to the author, dont trust this thing. I talked to the guy for about half an hour and i never talked to him in march, he put two sentences about me in the book beth which were inaccurate and made me wonder if i talked to the guy in half an hour, my guess Everything Else i said is not consistent with the preconceived narrative. That book was written long before he had talked to anybody. Hes out there trying to sell books and a bunch of trash, but thats journalism these days. Pete reminds me when james comey wrote Hillary Clintons exoneration memo two months before he interviewed her. Started on day one, its chaos, its anarchy. Steve Michael Wolff said he had no agenda going in. Pete i have a bridge to tell you if you believe that. Ainsley he was on with us earlier and he told producers and we asked him during commercial break, we didnt have time to talk during segment about it, this guy wrote a whole chapter on c pac and never called him. [laughter] steve there you go. A lot of people on the political left do and one passage that talks about how certain Staff Members on the west wing are apparently worried about the mental stability of the president of the United States. Pete he says all members to have west wing are concerned. Steve well, seems like all members of the Mainstream Media are talking like this. He not only amplifies the cover but amplifies what it raises. You hear them put out the tweet, stable genius like nixon im not a crook. His ability to process and control. Its actually quite frightening for the American People. We have probably written this 500 times. Steve the reason and we played you that was the fact that if the members of the Staff Members are talking about hes not mentally stable, maybe they should invoke the 25th amendment and we had dr. Alan sitting half an hour ago and he explained what the 25th amendment does and how it does not apply to President Trump. It was designed for when somebody has a stroke or somebody is unconscious. Its not designed for differences about a persons emotional make, first the Vice President has to invoke it and second steve which would not happen. If the president disputes it, you need twothirds of both houses of congress, forget about it. It would happen only if any president had a major psychotic break, not disagreement about policies, politics, style, even emotional approach to problems. Pete we laugh at this, we laugh at the fact that never Trumper David brooks and joy reed and former clinton staffer george steponopolus. They wanting to for incapacitation and impeachment. They want to continue to discredit him, so as solicitous as the book may be, it continue it is ball down the field for them that President Trump is not legitimate. Ainsley because some professor at yale who doesnt have him as patient is trying to diagnosis him with something. Pete its one thing to diagnosis on television, i think this president is crazy, you better do something about it, it speaks to where the grassroots on the left, the progressive left, the far left believe all of this and want it to be true. Steve since they have been talking about 25th amendment, now you know what it is, look it up. Ainsley who do you think will run against President Trump in 2020 . Some are hoping oprah does, nbc tweeted this out, let me back up for a minute. Seth meyers is giving monologue, i told jokes about our current president and he looks at oprah, oprah, you will never be president , you do not what it takes. Steve and tom hanks, you will never be Vice President. Ainsley this is what they tweet. Pete nbc tweets this, nothing but respect for capital, our, future president , Golden Globes with picture of oprah winfrey, i dont know is nbc msnbc, help me figure this out. Steve not the news department, the whole network. They dont say our 2020 president , they say our future. 2024, what . What are they saying . Ainsley not objective as journalist. Pete straight down the middle. Ainsley let us know what you think about that. Strong candidate. Pete who do you suggest . [laughter] ainsley jillian has breaking news for us. Lets get you caught up with fox news alert, fire on the roof of trump tower is now out. It started in the ventilation system and you can see right there the smoke rising from the tower and the video from a short time ago calls to 911 about the fire came in around 7 00 a. M. , there was a huge Emergency Response, take a look, 126 firefighters rushed to the scene, no one was hurt. Another fox news alert, a sheriffs deputy in Washington State killed while responding to a suspected home invasion. The Pierce County Sheriffs Office says he was shot by a man during foot chase, 40 miles south of seattle, one suspect is on the loose at this hour and is considered armed and dangerous. The deputys body carried away just moments ago surrounded by fellow officers. The sheriff with an emotional call to end the violence against police. This is something that happens too often nationally, this is something that is wrong, this is something that attacks our civic fabric, they put themselves at risk for everybody else and too often they are harmed in the process. Jillian another suspect was found dead, no word on how he died. Spacex launching a secret satellite into space for the first flight of the year. 3, 2, 1, ignition, lift off. Jillian the zuma aircraft taking off from Cape Canaveral but not revealing mission for the u. S. Government. First landed back on earth minutes later. A look at your headlines, i will send it back to you. Steve i love how they take off and come right back. Ainsley still ahead, thats ivanka trump on the right, but do you know who is on the left . Here is a hint, his momma is probably not too happy. Steve i think youre probably right. President trump said to minority voters on the campaign trail. What do you have to lose by trying something new like trump . Steve well, new numbers show that they might have a lot to gain, Charles Payne is going to join us live. Ainsley hey, charles. Look how much African American communities have suffered under democratic control. To those i say the following, what do you have to lose . Ainsley President Trump following through on that campaign promise, African Americans and hispanics are officially doing better with him than under president obama. Decembers 6. 8 Unemployment Rate among black americans is the lowest, the lowest since we have ever recorded this which began in 1972, this as hispanic unemployment hit a near record low of 4. 9 . Thats down from 5. 9 , the month that president obama left office. Here to react is Fox Business Network Charles Payne, good morning to you, charles. As black american what has the president done for the africanamerican community. Charles its hard to look at it black, white, hispanic, the president has done so many things with respect to removing regulations an getting the engineers of our economy moving that everyone has benefited it from it, no one has benefited more on a percentage basis than black people have. The unemployment lowest ever to your point down dramatically, Labor Force Participation has gone up, employment to population ratio has gone up. These are key critical factors that show that is jobs are coming back to america in general but also key areas, construction, manufacturing, those are areas that blacks and hispanics also have made some pretty good strides in. Ainsley as a result, do you think more people, more black community, more hispanics will vote for him . From economic point of view, spa loans, federal record, 31 went to minority, this new tax bill, many people dont realize, tim scott was able to get President Trump to insert a special tax break for businesses that are expanding or started in lowincome areas. They are doing great things that will never be reported by the Mainstream Media, of course, there are other issues within the black community, housing, charlottesville, stop and frisk, those things like that that will used by the media to countereconomic part, but when it comes to people voting on wallets, President Trump has done good job. Ainsley 2 million jobs created. Charles whats better than that is the quality of jobs. The quality of jobs, manufacturing jobs, according to adp, 600 approval, mining, construction, manufacturing, these are the job that is were lost by people in the hardline, noncollege grads, jobs that people voted for trump in ohio, pennsylvania and they came back dramatically, we are seeing major improvements in the economy and i like to see it go up because everyone benefits.

Pete welcome back, a couple of headlines for you, what if donald trump had never run for president . Outgoing new Jersey Governor Chris Christie thinks he would be occupying 1600 pennsylvania avenue instead. The governor on his way out telling new jersey. Com in exit interview telling, quote, its incredible to think to yourself, if this guy wasnt in the race, we would win this thing. Nancy pelosis son is the quite nonparton it appears, hammering it up with ivanka trump in maralago bash. The post has been deleted but his sister says he may have been there to play golf, i wonder if nancy had anything to being deleted. Steve i dont think its a golf course at maralago. Its a couple miles away. Republican house and Senate Leaders as well joined him as select cabinet members all with the president at the leadership retreat to try to figure out the agenda going forward, so what do they cover . Well, dont ask me, lets ask House Majority leader congressman Kevin Mccarthy from california. He was there and he joins us live from statuary hall. Good morning, thanks for having me back. Steve you guys ended 2017 on a positive note, you wound up with the tax cuts for businesses and middle class which you wanted, you wanted with more and wound uptaking a portion of obamacare apart, looking forward, where do you start . Well, we start right where we left off, the beginning of the tax reform, the reg reform, the va reform that we did. That was the start of americas comeback. Now 2018 you want to complete that job. You cant just quickly move past tax reform because more than a million americans, more than 900 million has been handed out just no bonuses because of that bill. But whats even more important that i notice was just the other day baltimore gas and electric, you know how cold it is, they got 82 million of savings that they will pass onto rate customers that theyre going to lower rates. Steve great. Not only are we getting more starting february, check the checks that you are bringing more home, now some of the bills will be lowered because of the tax bill. So what we want to do is build from there, more economic growth, youve got unemployment at 17year low, so we are going to have problem with making sure we get enough people into the workforce, ablebodies and others, how can we help from training and others. Infrastructure, we have to make sure that we are rebuilding america as america continues to grow. We look at the Opioid Epidemic across the country, we have to be able to solve that. Then most importantly rebilling our military, its been devastated by the cut that is have gone through on the Obama Administration as you saw, we had a National Defense briefing from the cia, secretary of state, secretary of defense general mattis going through the challenges around the world and making sure that america continues to be safe and those are the things that we talked about for a day and a half. Steve so you were trying to plot ahead 2018. The first thing on the agenda is trying to figure out how to fund the government because you are going to run out of dough in ten days or Something Like that and weve heard from democrats that they are willing to shut down the government unless the republicans join them and do something about daca with this, is that possible, are you planning to do something about Immigration Reform separately before the president s march deadline . Well, see, funding is still january 19th, that could have already been solved but nancy pelosi actually with wined her members to shut government down an not fund the military. Thats the real challenge. We want to make sure funding military, there should be no politics played with men and women in uniform. We are not waiting for them to make that happen. I will be in a meeting tomorrow in the white house, we want to solve daca, but to solve daca and make sure youre not back here in the future you have to get Border Security, you have to do something with chain migration, we watched time again recently in new york with the latest terrorist how they came into america. Theres a place that we could find Common Ground and solve this problem and im hopeful in that meeting tomorrow we could make that happen. Steve yeah, are the republicans all on Common Ground with the president of the United States, he wants to build the wall and he wants the money and he said, you know, there will be in daca unless he gets the money for the wall. Are you confident, members of your own party are on the same page with the president , they want the wall that bad too . I believe so and ive never seen this party as united as we are. Think about this, the democrats are whipping, nancy on the floor to shut the government down, the republicans passed it on their own, just republicans to move the government forward while they are trying to play politics. Think about what we just did on tax reform. Its been three decades. You had to have the house and senate, that was mainly, i had a lot oh democrats come to me and say they we wanted to vote for the bill but they were getting whipped from the democrat leadership. Steve you have ambitious agenda for 2018. Given the fact that the Michael Wolff book came out just a couple of days before your meeting out in the mountains of camp david, was the president talking about that a lot . I never heard him mention it one time. Steve really . If anyone was sitting in those meetings they would know what garbage the book is.

Youre out in hollywood where they had the Golden Globes last night, what did you make of what seth meyers was talking about there .

Claim that bill clinton raped and she was verbally intimidate bid hillary. Hollywood has given millions of dollars to the clintons, jeffrey has raised or donated or bundled millions of dollars for the clintons and nobody seem today seemed to give and time is up.

Finally when Natalie Portman came out and gave the nominee for best director, she said and the nominee for all male director are, blah, blah, it cheapened the award and if i were Guillermo Del Toro i would have been ticked off, i didnt deserve it, i only competed against men, therefore i should giver it back, what are you saying .
