Why dont democrats wants to get to the bottom of all the irregularities and problems we saw, Ranking Member and i call for an investigation sending a letter to nadler and chairwoman maloney. That is the fundamental question. They argue democrats owe it to americans after, quote, four years baselessly calling into question the legitimacy of the 2016 election was debunked allegations of russia collusion. A milestone is the us surpasses 250,000 coronavirus deaths. City and state leaders beating of restrictions as americans prepared to celebrate thanksgiving.

Friday night minnesota bars, restaurants, Entertainment Venues and gyms will shut down for four weeks ending kansas a mask mandate for thanksgiving, democrats and republicans agree a second lockdown is out of the question. We are not going that route as we learned a lot in a 9month of this pandemic. We took some pretty drastic action at the beginning because we didnt know anything else to do but now we do know. You are going to push back against that. Im glad to hear republican and democrats across the country agree that is not the right approach. A warning ahead for the holidays, hhs secretary azar sending thank you friends and families a high risk activity but good news on the vaccine front.

Later this hour doctor mark siegel will join us to answer your questions about the Coronavirus Vaccine. Thank you. Ohio senator rob portman is blasting democrats for politicizing the issue, giving the president credit for getting promising vaccines ready so quickly. Its not about money and ego. It is about science and data and safety and saving lives and operation warp speed has worked miraculously, a private Public Partnership that allows us to do two things, one, encourage the development of these new vaccines as quickly as possible and congress provided 27 billion in the cares acts to do that but second what was brilliant by the Trump Administration was to say there will be a dual track, we will be manufacturing this faxing, you had the development of the vaccine, the manufacturing going on on two tracks at the same time. Johnson johnson expected vaccine to be ready for approval by february. California governor declaring a state of emergency as the new Mountain View wildfire grew to the nevada state line.

This one is scheduled on saturday december 12th in washington dc.

Congressman ralph lorman will join us on what happens to the investigation once the president elect takes office. I never thought it was such a bad little tree. Its not bad at all really. Just needs a little love. Charlie brown tree or Rockefeller Christmas tree . Hilarious comparisons on social media. Rocking around reporter new revelations from the Senate Investigation into Hunter Bidens alleged business dealings appearing to show links to china and russia according to the republicans at the forefront of this investigation, joining us to react to the latest report House OversightCommittee Member congressman ralph harmon. Good morning. Chuck grassley, ron johnson released an update to the hunter biden investigation, tell us what the latest is. We are requesting they do their job and investigate. I serve on the Oversight Committee with jim jordan and Ranking Member comeer and we asked chairman maloney to hold hearings. It goes with a pattern they had of no curiosity, to at least ask questions. They could investigate the president for four years and when this evidence comes up on hunter biden which started with his receiving payments of 50, 000 every 30 days with his role on the burisma boards which he had no knowledge of they stonewalled, the press fails to ask questions to biden when he was a candidate and i assume they would like it to go away if he ultimately comes president. A portion of the report that was just released, grassley and johnson say the records confirm connection between the biden family and the communist Chinese Government as well as the link between under bidens Business Associates and the russian government and further support the committees up to the 20 third 2020 report finding the relationship creates counterintelligence and extortion concerns was the last part is very important because if members of joe bidens family accepted family from a company tied to the Chinese Government how does that affect joe bidens ability as commanderinchief . It is illegal. Look at how, if they would uncover, at least have some curiosity to follow the trail it is a very serious charge with a country that is a communist run country and the fact that they are stonewalling this and hearing crickets from the investigations that should go on but it is serious concerns because look at the damage china has done on the coronavirus, accepting money and it is not fair for joe biden to get by and say he didnt know anything about it when it is clear he did. They have the computer, hard drive from hunter biden. Wheres the curiosity to questions that . It is a travesty of justice and the American People see through it and that is part of the frustration that the country has with what is going on, lack of any type of question is a travesty for the American People and justices. You mentioned coronavirus and i want to talk about this because people are reaching if they havent already the frustration point with this. So much arguing back and forth, weve seen months of stalemate when it comes to Relief Program set to expire at the end of this year. We are getting close to the deadlines, ending december 3, 01, emergency unemployment compensation, eviction, moratorium, student loan cost, funding for required sick leave, a lot set to expire at the end of this year and according to Labor Department statistics 13. 5 million americans currently benefiting from some of this unemployment relief, people need to know they are going to get help. Do you see help coming their way anytime soon . What will it take to get that done for the American People . You see Mitch Mcconnell in the senate, what they offered to put out for relief including Liability Protection for those businesses. Nancy pelosi continue to ask for 2. 2 trillion as a part of that, 417 billion for unrestricted aid to cities she deems necessary. The devil is in the details, the dollars that she wants, defunding the police, 600 million that shes asking for has nothing to do with coronavirus and we have 12 days left in this session, to take it up. I have no confidence that she is going to come to the table and negotiate in good faith. Shannon you dont think it will get done . I do not. We are not having any debate. Weve heard talk about it but ms. Pelosi continues to play politics and the American People are suffering and it is not right. Extremely disappointing. Im sure a lot of people who are hurting are equally upset about that. Along with setting businesses down, different studies, it is a critical situation and they are tone deaf to do anything about it.

Jillian back with the fox news alert come major flipflop in a key battleground state, gop members in wayne county, michigan rescinding their decision to certify the result of the 2020 election claiming they were bullied into approval, in their affidavits, the chairwoman explained the pressure saying, quote, comments made accusations of racism and threatened me and members of my family. Hartman says i voted not to step aside and this vote should not be certified until these questions are addressed. I remain opposed to certification of the wayne county results. The secretary of state is expected to present allstate votes to the canvassing board on monday. Jillian hope on the horizon with pfizer and modern is a, 90 effective. Lots of questions about both. Joining us to answer some of them is author of covid19, the politics of fear and the power of science, medical contributor doctor mark siegel. Good to see you again. Lets start with a tweet from suzanne. If i have antibodies do i need to take the vaccine . The answer is we dont know how protective those antibodies are. Somewhat but dont know if it gives you full immunity or how long it lasts and looks like the vaccine may give you more immunity than having gotten over covid19. In addition to having recovered. Adrian asks will the vaccine be safe for Young Children and adults over 65 . Great question. It has been studied extensively, the pfizer trial included that group so yes for over 65. That is one of our target groups. For children cincinnati Childrens Hospital studied from 12 up. Under the age of 12 we havent studied it yet but the truth is kids under 12 havent been getting very sick from covid19 and as we rollout these vaccines we will test the more in younger people. Right now over the age of 12, over 65, yes. Jillian adding to that is a comment on instagram that asks will be safe for children and adults with disabilities for preexisting conditions . Preexisting conditions is who we want to get the vaccine. When people ask about disabilities they are worried, that somehow there is a virus in these vaccines, there isnt. It is just a protein completely safe for those with disabilities. That is the group we want to protect. Jillian you touched on this instagram person, once you receive the vaccine, how long is immunity . Will we receive it in cvs, walgreens, etc. Or will it require a doctors visit . The Pfizer Vaccine has to be kept 80 degrees below 0, it will not be found in pharmacies, you have to find it in Major Medical centers or temporary clinics set up in hospitals. The answer is no but the Moderna Vaccine can be kept warm, round freezer temperature, we will see that at cvs, walgreens, taking the two together it will be of everywhere. In terms of how long immunity last we dont know yet but a recent study showed promising that this immunity may last longer than we thought. I wouldnt be surprised if it lasts more than a year. Jillian an email from jerry, if the vaccine was only studied for the last eight month how do we know what the longterm side effects would be . This is a vital question at this time where people are wondering it is coming along at such rapid speed which on the one hand is fantastic but on the other hand people want to ensure if they take it is safe. Another great question. Throughout history when we study vaccines we look most extensively at the early side effects the first several months. These vaccines are very safe except for some headaches. We are not seeing any severe side effects. That bodes well, we are going to be following them over a long time just to make sure. We are not seeing the shortterm side effects, the longer the vaccines are around the longer we will be aware of that. One more bit of reassurance. The vaccine itself the active ingredient, the messenger rna is out of your body in a couple days. The immune response is promoted but you get it out of your body so it is not hanging around. And a good thing. Chances are very high if you have no shortterm side effects he will not have longerterm either. Jillian how long does it normally take to study vaccines to determine the longterm effects . A couple years . Absolutely. We will study it over a year or two just to make sure but it is not going to be available on the market if we had any concerns about that. The vast majority of vaccines we dont have a problem down the line, weve not seen anything like that. Im not expecting that at all. Jillian appreciate it. Carley new messages reveal how seattles chop zone spiraled out of control this summer, days before the takeover city leaders insisted they would not abandon the property but the mayor ordered police lines and barriers to be removed from the precinct, fire officials asking for help after security pulled back saying they disabled doorlock so they cant be locked.

So shark replaced them with flexible power fins to directly engage floors and dig deep into carpets. Pick up more on every pass with no hair wrap. Shark vertex with duoclean power fins. Welcome back.

The two republicans on wayne county wants board of canvassers rescinding their votes to certify Election Results claiming they were bullied and mislead. The pair says both should not be certified until irregularities in detroit are resolved. Joining us live with his reaction, chair of the National RepublicanCongressional Committee minnesota congressman tom emmert. Good morning. Good morning, jillian and carley. Carley this is a big mess in wayne county you have two republicans on this board of canvassers voting to certify and then overnight say we take it back. We were bullied and mislead. Will these results ultimately be certified . How does that work . You mean the existing results . Carley yeah. One thing we can agree on regardless of what our political or candidate every legitimate vote should be counted and everier rig greater should be resolved. I have to believe we all believe they shouldnt be bullied into accepting something was wrong. We are going to take a look at it and make sure every legitimate vote was counted. Jillian set to have the smallest majority in the house since world war ii. What does that say to you about what the people of america want . Listen, nancy pelosi on election day was bragging she was going to expand majority by 10 to 15 seat. That did not happen. We have already flipped 12 seats in the house hopefully flip a few more. They are poised to have the smallest majority. We had a great night. Came up a little short. Poised to have the smallest majority since world war ii. I have to tell you both, the thing im most proud of every seat we have flipped so far on the republican side has either been with a woman candidate, a minority candidate or with a veteran. Jillian thats under reported part of this election process there has been a lot of talk about the divide within the democratic party. You have say they are united. But, in a very liberal direction, right . Actually, i mean, with the what we have seen over the last two years, there are no moderates left in the democrat party. This is now the ultra liberals, which used to be nancy pelosi. But she has even moved farther to the radical left. Its the ultra liberals vs. The socialists. Literally the selfavowed socialists. They are for defunding the police. Governmentit will run healthcare. Raising your taxes 4 trillion. The green new deal. These are not moderate ideas. These are radical left wing ideas and frankly. This is what the American Public saw and this is why they lost so many seats in this election. This is why they bad place going into 2022. Jillian nancy pelosi was asked whether this would be her last term as speaker of the house. Take a listen to this exchange. Im curious if you anticipate that this coming congress would be your last as speaker . Well, let me just say that when when that conversation took place there was a move to put limits on the leadership and the chairs of committees. What i said then is whether it passes or not, i will abide by those limits that are there. Jillian what do you think . Whats your reaction . Will this be her last term . I dont think she quite answered it. But i will put it this way. We are going to make sure its her last term because we will win the majority in two years. Its just this radical left socialist agenda that they are pushing that main street america will not agree with. Carley do you think she is making that decision herself if this is her last term or does she feel is unlike the writing is on the wall. Again we will make sure its her last term when we win the majority back for the republicans in 2022. Carley you are well on your way to that sir, with flipping all those house seats. Thank you so much for joining us today. We appreciate it. Thank you both. Jillian have a good day. Carley thank you so much. Jillian its been a busy morning.
