At home right now having pecan pie. Bill we are going to to regulate cap. Heather happy thanksgiving fewer family as well. Happening now is starting right now. Bye. Well, the Great American migration is underway, splitting time with our family and friends. Welcome to happening now. It was a sloppy trip to grandmas house for Many Americans and no trip at all for many others. Dropping heavy snow and rain along the east coast forcing airlines to cancel hundreds of flights and delay thousands. In new york Mother Nature playing along for the most part at the annual macys things giving day parade. People of all ages they can input image to see floats and giant balloons inkling six new balloons unveiled this year. Happy thanksgiving, maria. We are looking at some pretty hefty snow totals across places like West Virginia and into main with the noreaster responsible for the flight delays and flight cancellations. Hopefully they are able to make it out to see their families coming up today as the storm system is moving on out. More than a foot of snow in places like massachusetts, maine and 20 inches recorded in portions of West Virginia. Much colder air moving into parts of the east, this is what it feels like, 38 i 38 atlanta,n memphis. For below zero in minneapolis and the teams in the city of chicago, so very chilly and temperatures below average for
some of you across the country. We still have lingering snow showers not really associated with the noreaster, is all associated with the services run through and moisture off the great lakes. And of course across the Pacific Northwest another storm system for his areas of rain in the coastal areas including cities like portland and seattle, mse thanksgiving day out there for you. Across the Northern Rockies looking at snow showers rolling through. Relatively quiet weather picture across the country. It will stay chilly in the south, highs in the 40s atlanta but a Beautiful Day across florida and tampa 67 degrees with sunshine across the plains as well with highs in the 60s, 40s in tulsa. Look at l. A. , a very warm day today. Highs in the 80s, some clouds, you will be cooling off this
weekend across california but for today enjoy the warmth while you have it. Upper 80s for some locations. Patti ann thanks. Eric Something Else for you to think about or maybe not think about while you are out shopping for bargains, turns out could end up getting unsolicited pitch for obamacare. Live in washington with the very latest on this. What is this about . In addition to the great del on a tv or clothing you might be inundated with flyers about obamacare while you scurry around on black friday. Allowing the Health Care Navigators to offer obamacare around the country. Although it may be difficult to do in crowds like these, coming in open enrollment 2. 0 which appears to be gone smoother than a disastrous website rollout that happened last year. It focusing more on outreach than the celebrity advertisements we saw and perhaps wondering if there are any for buster deals to be had on obamacare. No dice. You along with the taxpayers will be paying the full price. Eric thanks. Patti ann the new focus on pushing forward with obamacare at the mall coming days after democratic senator Chuck Schumer blamed obamacare for the democrats losing seats in 2010. The plate of uninsured americans and the hardships caused by Insurance Company practices certainly needed to be addressed, but it wasnt the change we were hired to make, americans were crying out for the end to the recession, better wages and more jobs, not changes in health care. Patti ann the chief Congressional Correspondent for the examiner, thank you for joining us. The Obama Administration partnering with westfield owning dozens of malls across the country targeting shoppers. Last year there was some backlash running those commercials urging people to chat about obamacare. Is it a good idea to target shoppers who are trying to escape the holiday spirit at the mall . Lesser there was the pajama clad man talking about health care underneath the Christmas Tree. This time they are going to the front lines basically, where the people are. They will also be in pharmacies dealing really with the frontlines of health care because so many people rely on Prescription Medication and social media targeting young people, women about to get married or have children. Not just to sign people up, but looking to sign up young
invincibles who can pay into the system but dont have Chronic Health care issues so they are not taking out of the system as much. They are realizing last year didnt work, they are trying something new. A better chance at success because they are targeting people in person. This is the busiest shopping time of the year. A more narrow enrollment period. Our shoppers really going to be open to the idea of talking about Health Care Reform paying into perhaps Expensive Health care plan while they are trying to pay for gifts for relatives and friends . It is a big experiment, basically. Patti ann they are already worried about their budget. And then you hit them with that. They are targeting younger people, administration partnering with these social media groups focusing on the newlyweds and new parents, going for those millennials but as Chuck Schumer said, the
democrats lost the midterms because they were over focused on obamacare and not focused enough on the economy. The democrats blew their opportunity, they had a mandate in the squandered it, do you agree with that . Those of us covering it at the time said that was really the issue that matters most americans was reforming the broken health care system. They all got behind it saying this is what americans want because so many people are uninsured. What senator Chuck Schumer saying now is it is not working and it is not popular, his shifting because it is not a Popular Health care law. People either wants to change it or get rid of it. Democrats have come to realize it has hurt them in elections over the past four years so marginalized in congress at historic lows, just looking to change course, what are people focusing on now. They want to have jobs so people
were saying that for years ago. Health care reforms are a big thing, our opportunity to change it and they went for it and it has backfired politically as a party. Patti ann as the democrats have admitted. Interesting if the new targeting push in the malls, dont be surprised more if you see some of these obamacare people. Thank you for joining us.

Eric now the fight against radical islamic terrorist of isis. The pentagon taking the steps in the fight against that group. The u. S. Is shifting aircrafts from afghanistan to the air war against the Islamic State in syria and iraq. Growing questions over how effective the airstrikes have been against an enemy that may fight like an army but can still easily hide among the general population. Fox news military analyst. Happy thanks giving, good to see
you today. Same to you. Eric absolutely. What is the shifting from afghanistan to the iraq syria at hand . You will note the type of aircraft being shifted. What is the arm draper, very large drone dropping hellfire missiles and potential bombs. Second most importantly is a warthog, the socalled hog. Unlike many aircrafts in the force, this would fly very low and very slow and packs a huge 35millimeter canon that is very precise so as enemy disperses he hides among the people, he is increasingly more difficult to target and 1000 pounds or 500pound bomb has too much Collateral Damage to get inside buildings and get inside hiding places so the air force is bringing in the plane of choice
for precision strikes close to border Ground Troops and for delivering fire inside of cities, that is the a10. Eric the warthog as you call it. What an odd looking airplane. The guys who fly it love it. One goal is to take out those tanks they stole from the iraq he army. That is true, but it is very good against personnel, against bunkers, it has explosive as well as a tank killing rounded but the most important thing is the pilot is trained to do this, trained to fly low, trained to use flyballs to pick out targets and differentiate its target from the clutter around them. And a second burst to kill virtually anything. The great fear everywhere is when you get low and slow, you
increase sadly the probability one of these aircraft are going to get shot down and that would be tragic. Eric what happens if that is the case, what if isis shoots down an aircraft . The intelligence i have seen is isis has put out notices that said their goal is to capture an american pilot particularly alive and he had seen whats isis has done two other americans on Global Television and god for bid that the fate. Having said that there are very robust evacuation scenarios in place that hopefully can plug a downed pilot off the ground long before isis can get to him. The air force is now going after precision targets, moving targets on the ground because they know so far the results of bombing from a distance simply hasnt worked. Eric do you think we have the ability basically god for bid one of our pilots is shot down, we can save them before the savages of isis can use it as a propaganda tool. Have been with the search and rescue mission before, they are very good while you cannot disclose too much, they are very close. The air force surgeon as a 20millimeter gun. They can defend themselves, they can plug in ehrman out of the ground, so unless it is extremely unfortunate, his odds of survival are very good, god for bid that should happen. The thought is just terrible. Eric i absolutely agree. One concern, if we are taking these assets out of afghanistan into syria and iraq, what does that do to our fight against the
taliban and what do you think will happen in our fight against isis . To your first part, the airpower over afghanistan not only do they have air force aircraft in afghanistan and nearby but they have Army Attack Helicopters both light and heavy, armed and see 47 and a huge fleet of drones. Given and level of activity it seems to be that is proven risk. What is going to happen, wait and see. 9800 in about three months. What is important is what the president allows them to do. Are they going to hide, or are they going to go on patrol with them and assist them in killing the taliban which mark so for the cance answer appears to be b b. A precipitous pullout and a
collapse of the army like with what happened in iraq. I dont think that will happen but in the middle east, you never know. Eric we are thankful for our men and women in service. For protecting us. Patti ann militants seized the city in june during a rapid advance over northern iraq. The move is to prevent them from revealing their locations to u. S. Forces conducting airstrikes but still access to the internet which operate on a different network. Eric talking about potentially rescuing any kind of a downed pilot. Do you hear about it in yemen . An unbelievable rescue mission with a group of hostages from al qaeda as an american journalist we are told is still being held. The white house have jobs
wanted, jobs open so why is nobody taking that . You would think a cabinet position would be quick to fill but not for a replacement so far. Hello, how are you doing.

you. Surveillance video capturing two men, one wielding a machete at a florida gas station. Chasing the store clerk. Arresting both suspects within hours of this frightening incident.

And russia supplying early christmas presents to france. A Christmas Tree in paris. Calling it a message of peace amid the tension over the violence in ukraine and france delaying the sale of warships to moscow. Patti ann the white house says the official reason for defense secretary chuck hagel resignation is that hagel has
the wrong skill set set deal wih isis. Now he is a wartime secretary to take on the Islamic State it turns out filling his position is becoming a challenge. To go top prospects have already dropped out. Jack reed wanting to remain in the senate and the chief executive for the center for a new American Security withdrawing saying she has family issues. So what does this mean for u. S. Foreign policy . Former secret Service Agent for president obama and International Consultant joins us now. Happy thanksgiving. And republic is running an article entitled firing hagel will not solve the problems. The article goes on to say he is being scapegoated for the administrations. Difficulties abroad. Do you agree . I do agree. I dont think president obama has a coherent policy right now and that is a problem whether it is the negotiations iran, it
seems at this point internal delay kicking the can down the road mentality, which will leave a nuclear iran for the administration. It doesnt seem to be a coherent political north star in terms of Foreign Policy anybody in that position can follow. I would not take the job, i can tell you that. Patti ann apparently a lot of people wouldnt. Michelle pulling her name citing family reasons. The new republic says Foreign Policy is truly directed from the white house, potential candidates are concerned they will take all the blame but none of the power. Is that a legitimate concern . It is being that is what you saw with secretary hagel. They thought they had perpetual yesman. In some respects they did, but some of the more important respects they did not. There is a memo out there the
contents happen to be week, it lays out his position on this failed strategy, it wasnt going to work. It does no good to have a yesman that doesnt in fact say yes. He was clearly pushed out the door and they were looking for more of aj johnson Type Department of Homeland Security what it meant thes policies pretty much the matter what. Patti ann we also some reports hagel was butting heads with susan rice. The effect that to continue with whoever comes in next . I do. Susan rice seems to have the ear of the president. They have outside power for their positions and level of experience. Susan rice has shown her willingness to go on the National Broadcast shows and edge of the line whether she means it or not. She knows cooperation with turkey, she should have advised the turks first who rapidly came out and said we are not cooperating on this. She is a mouthpiece for the administration and i dont think she really stands on any principles other than what president obama says. Patti ann whoever takes his post will have multiple International Issues to deal with around the globe. We will see what happens. Thank you for joining us and happy thanksgiving. Happy thanksgiving to you. Eric a pretty dramatic raid in yemen. After being captured by al qaeda. In a remote area in yemen, the operation sadly was unable to free five other hostages including an american journalist. The official says that american along with the other hostages have been moved elsewhere by al qaeda days before the raid. The name of the missing journalist is not being made public. Patti ann more on that coming up in the next hour. After days of violence in missouri, Mother Nature helps calm things down in the wake of the grant jury decision. Protesters across the country are getting arrested. And meanwhile were looking at a demonstration over another issue, shooting death of a 12yearold boy carrying a realistic looking toy gun. The legal panel shows off on this coming up. Eric the demonstration started at ferguson, missouri, spurting to cities across the country. Days after the grand jury chose not to indict ferguson please also Darren Wilson in the killing of michael brown. California Police Arrested 130 people a protest in downtown l. A. Be at dozens more protesters arrested and detained in oakland after police say a march turned destructive. In ferguson has been heavy snow and the cold weather has cap a lot of the protesters and had been out on the streets inside. The demonstration still mostly peaceful this time. Live in ferguson with the very latest. You dont often have people being thankful for a wet, miserable heavy snow that comes down but it did last night keeping the number of
demonstrators to a minimum. He still saw the demonstrators particularly at the Police Headquarters from the ferguson three police, lot standing there provoking the National Guard who were standing, they went off marching in a couple of different directions. At the end of the night on a couple of arrests indication it that could be trouble over the weekend. We also have a look at some of the looting inside the market and liquor. That is where it all began where brown stole the cigars before the whole incident happened on august 9. You can see them snatching everything they can. You can also see one individual who starts a fire. Sprays it with one some sort of excitement. And a heartwarmingplays on longu will see a woman, long take what looks to be milk and put out the fire preventing it from becoming another one of the turned down hubs we see where so much of the
loot handwriting took place. Overnight not much trouble at all, two arrests looking to see if any, will start with black friday. Eric stay peaceful, thank you. Patti ann the family of a 12yearold boy shot and killed after brandishing a toy gun says the tragedy didnt have to happen. It was caught on surveillance video. You can see him waiving the fake gun in cleveland moments before a rookie cop pulled up and opened fire barely two seconds later. The family says it is our belief this situation could have been avoided and he should still be here with us. One thing to simply, Police Officer reacted quickly. Here is the legal panel. Thank you both for being here and joining us. We saw the video released by the
family of the boy who was killed and we stopped it before seeing the actual shooting but to back it up, police got a 911 call from a woman who set a guy was waiting the gun around, the 26yearold cop got out, the 12yearold reaches for his waistband for a pellet gun and the officer shoots him immediately. His partner kicks the gun out of the hand, to that behavior sound like the definitely thought it was a real gun. The legal test is not whether or not the gun israel but whether or not the person proceeding it reasonably believes it is real. It is a totally tragic case but at the same time it could have easily had the reverse headline in a bizarre incident 12yearold boy shot a cop or in a bizarre incident 12yearold boy shot two people in a park and the police who were there did nothing. Very hard to discuss this. Of course it is tragic. Patti ann we were just showing a photograph of the toy gun, it looks very realistic even from some Law Enforcement professionals who said if somebody was waiting that at them they would absolutely think it was real. The woman who called 911 said the guy may be a kid and the gun was probably fake. The dispatcher did not tell the cops that but some are arguing if a civilian was able to figure out the gun might be fake, the cops should have hesitated for a second. That is a great point and when were talking about these splitsecond decisions, that is what we are talking about because it was literally a second after the Police Arrived at the park. That is one of the reasons the family released the tape to begin with. It is about to show how quickly the police responded. Because of a splitsecond decision and the real fault is
why didnt the dispatcher say there is an eyewitness who believes this to be a child, possibly a fake gun but when the Police Arrived that is not what they were told. We believe it to be a 20yearold. That is his perception immediately after the shots were fired. That would be very critical. What they are thinking. Those utterances moments after the shot it really lends to what we were thinking at the time. Still have a finger on the trigger, somebody who thinks it is not a pellet gun. What happens next, what should happen, what do you expect to happen . First of all the point he
made is one of the key factors in whatever litigation is how realistic the gun looks, it did look very realistic. The other thing is how far away the police were. Whether or not a criminal charge, that will be difficult because you cant tell necessarily they splitsecond how old somebody is and obviously cant tell the status of the weapon. And it a civil case, the reasonableness of a splitsecond decision may provide quite a bit of a defense. But we need a policy discussion coming out of all these incidences on how we can nullify people without killing them. And is it responsible for manufacturers to make twice that are this realistic . And for parents to buy them. That is a great point, penny. This toy gun had an orange tip
which is what gives everyone to say it has to be a toy. It was actually taken off, another issue. Patti ann we have to leave it there. Thank you so much and happy thanksgiving. Thanks to you. Eric store owners may have an unusual way to stop shoplifters. A mall cop for the 21st century. It doesnt sleep, doesnt eat and doesnt need a lunch break and you only have to pay at once.

Eric you can enjoy a giftfree thanksgiving today. We are about to face an avalanche of Nutrition Information about almost everything we eat. Fox news correspondent has the story from washington. Whole new wrath of federal relations taking Everything Everything from calorie counts to the environment to the internet. Steve, you are hereby pardoned. A president may have offered a president ial pardon plea turkeys, but movie theaters, vending machines and small restaurant chains will get no such reprieve, they will soon be required to post calorie counts. Movie theaters are included, bowling alleys, convenience and Grocery Stores included as well as restaurants. While the National Restaurant association is in favor because it would replace patchwork of state rules, small restaurant chains may have to spend a lot of money and lab fees to figure
out how many calories are in a slice of pizza. Driving the cost up. New line galatians dont stop there. The Obama Administration announced new proposed rules to crackdown the new ozone relations improving health, but they will also cost up to 15 billion making them the most expensive environmental regulations in u. S. History. She may be imposing more more cost on businesses make it difficult to invest . Should be imposing more cost on businesses that drive up the cost of energy not just for manufacturers who are third of the Nations Energy supply but for every consumer including Senior Citizens desperately trying to pay their home heating and cooling bills. And then there is the internet which is largely regulation free. The debate over net neutrality, some being charged than others could be to relations treating the net like a utility. Among other things, that could mean new fees for consumers like
you see on your phone bill. The fcc will have to decide to compose the new regulations. The president would like to see them. In washington, fox news. Patti ann a minnesota boy has something thankful for. Getting a new grip on life. Fitted with a robotic hand, born with only a thumb on his right hand.

Eric they will keep their current Production Target despite rising supply and plunging prices. Prices will continue falling. The National Average price per gallon of regular gasoline is 2. 80. Your ago 3. 29, so will it keep dropping . An expert on energy joins us now. If the shakes wants to keep the bill at their level now and prices are dropping, what will they turn off the spigot . This goes back to having supply and demand. If it iif you disrupt supply, te demand will change. It has driven the price is down, this is an acceptable. Eric what do you think theyre going to do . They want to see the profit it will disrupt the supply making us more hungrier for oil meeting we will have to go. Eric what are the chances of that . They do control the oil and supply and the whole planet. I believe that could potentially happen. Eric north america shell, with american crude, so some point they say we can pump more oil than they can. We could come but we have to go back to understanding and the u. S. Refineries, they havent been built, so were still importing gasoline and Petroleum Products so we have high yield on that as well. Eric do think the phone prices will continue, how will that affect the rest of the economy . It could continue for a bit more, you will have short term based on the holidays we are approaching the shortterm high demand for this which would allow the prices to go up a
little bit, we are in a cycle where were looking at whether they will allow that to continue to happen, i think that is an big question. Eric so the shortterm we are okay. What about natural gas . This it is for a percent lower but natural gas is creeping up. Looking at where we are right now, york for example northeast approaching the winter where natural gas we used to keep the homes warm so this is expected for the price to be up. Will that change an effect how much depending on that heating oil as well to keep ourselves warm. Eric prices, gallons of gasoline down, we will be there for a while until opec decided to do something or another. Thank you so much. Happy thanksgiving.

everything went upon black. So since then, it is a cool night and well just hope the power comes up quickly. He told them he is planning on going to his daughters house who has power this evening. And the snow and rain created havoc. 751 flights were cancelled nationwide. And compare that on the day before 140 cancellations and the roads are icy and slippery.

However, well not condone nor will we allow individuals to trample the rights of others in pursuit of the amendment rights. And one person was arrested for felony batter ary. The crisis in ferguson is fuelling new calls for police around the country to wear cameras. Miriam, kansas is issuing cameras to the Police Officer. That dispouts the claims of police misconduct. I dont think our officers are doing anything wrong. But if they are, i want to know and i want citizens to be able to tell me, i think your officer was doing something he or she was not supposed to. I can go fine the video and look
at it together. The merram Police Department used a grant money to buy the cameras. How would you like to be flying along and look out of the airline and window, you can so something buzzing there. There are warnings that commercial airliners are facing the threat. There is a surge between commercial airliners and drones. There have been 25 close calls since last june. Most incident in take offs and landings. Mike emmanuel focusing more on this. Close calls reported from new jersey, kansas and hawaii. The fa a receives 25 reports from pilots who have sewn model planes or drones operating near the aircraft. Others are reported by helicopters and commercial
airline crows. The reports range from Unmanned Aircraft sightings without impact to other pilots and aircraft, to onna a few occasion pilots altering course to avoid an Unmanned Aircraft. A lot of the reported sightings are near the major airports on the east coast near newark and jfk. And in washington. There are 25 sitings since john by pilots and air Traffic Controllers spotting drones near restricted air space. In many cases they weigh less than ten pounds and have cameras and just a now feet in diameter. And a group that represents the firms that makes drones notes with half million Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in our air space there are no accidents. Close call talk could lead to a restrictive rule that could stifle the innovation in our country. The majority of the drone owners are operating them safely. Fa an Officials Say the reports are just sitings and pilots did not alter the course. And it could be attributed to pilot awareness and better reporting and record keeping. There was one above me in my head and going buzz. And i was like that is a drone and if you are in the airplane, the people who supports drones say that the faan is over reacting to this. Reporter they are pointing that there are half million out there. But if one gets in a jet engine, you have a big problem there and there are concerns about the
right balance. Innovation Going Forward and also safety for the flying public. If you are a pilot and seeing a drone near by it would be alarming. And this summer it was alarming. The patty ann. A sales pitch for obama care. Promoters of health care are hitting the malls all over the country. Reporter at the mall you might be inundated on flyers about obama care. They are allowing the Health Care Navigators to hawk obama care around the country. It may be difficult to hawk anything in the crowd. There is open enrollment version 2. 0 that appears to be going
smoother than the disaster last year. The new program focused on outreach than it does on the celebrity advertising. Still at lost one democrat is having second thoughts of pushing obama care through after the obama win in 2010. It was not a change we were required to make. They wanted more jobs and not changes in health care. Reporter it appears on black friday, you and the taxpayers will be paying full price. Leland vitter in washington, thank you. Mitt romney said it over and over again i am not running for president in 2016. Republican voters feel otherwise. We will have the results of the new gop pole and the race for the white house. And the president is saying thanks to our servicemen and women overseas and making phone calls to the american troops thanking them for their service in the country. And one country is hosting a very special service. Well take you there live and what they are doing and where. Cocoa or eggnog . Toasty or frosty . Exactly the way you want it.

So my buddy here is going to help me find it. Here we go. Woo who, woah, woah, woah. Its out there somewhere spreading the word about americas favorite potatoes heart healthy idaho potatoes and the american heart associations go red for women campaign. If you see it i hope youll let us know. Always look for the grown in idaho seal. A new poll shoes that gop voters is supporting mitt romney. He is getting more support going into 2016. And that includes more than Florida Governor jeb bush. The only problem is romney is not interested. Do you believe that . Joining us is pete snyder and ceo of disrupture capitol. And the democratic strategist and former communication director for john corzoin. Pete and steve thank you for joining us. Is romney going to run . Absolutely not. I take the goff govern at his word. There is a decent amount of good will with the republican governor. He was right on the issues on putin and the sdaefrt that is obama care and right in drawing a hard line in the middle east. If he is so right, why will he not go do it . I think republicans are looking for something new. When barak obama said voters are going to be looking for a new car smell and kind of a dig at Hillary Clinton. And i think republicans are looking for a new face. Hillary; stove does she have
the new car smell. She is ahead in the polls, but people might say who else is there . The democrats would be be thrilled for mitt romney to run again. He would lose the third time. But it does speak to republicans and cultivate hopeful candidates in the way they did with george bush. They have had a successful strategy on obama is a failure thaw heard in poets intro. That only works while obama is president. You will have candidates that have compoting vision for america. Who could it be . I think Hillary Clinton, and good candidates. Jim web and former governor of montana and martin omolly. On republican side i dont so them as the sint rift. This is a problem. Great thing is, on thanksgiving we have a lot of options to choose from. We have entros and side dishes and a bunch of governor from the midwest. The democrats are only serving one thing and they are left overs that are rewarmed and called Hillary Clinton and that is the only option for democrat voters. They are serving something that the american like. Reheated and rejected. Hold on, that happens to be thorough that there is a candidate already who is almost declared jim web and other candidates that are are good candidates. And the republican for the republican men ow it is a men u
people tend not to like. Right wing and idea logical. Hold on. Rejected in five out of six. You got left wing and right wing on any bird at the table. Lets talk about jim web. Elizabeth warren may not run. Bernie sanders or someone from the democratic party. You think they will challenge hillary in a way . I think so. And it is good and healthy for the party and i think it is important for democrats to not allow themselves to get locked in a lefty box. Elections for president are won from the center and won on hopes and aspirations and not on negativity and america is going to fail, which is what the republican message has been last six years. And just as a republican
message, look at what senator schummer said about obama care, pete, he said we did the wrong thing. I never thought i would agree with chuck schummer. Barak obama won in 2008 and people wanted him to focus on the economy and instead he rammed the obama care vote. His party is in chaos and all they have as an buyer is warmed over Hillary Clinton. And i am hopeful about the republican choices we have. Senator ran paul could be terrific and we have good focused republican governors out there and it resonated in the past year. People want a change. Resume this past year not liking the president. I would like to so the 2016
Hillary Clinton and ran paul. I would take that any day of the week. You are right on both sides. You got stuffing and cranberry sauce and chestnuts but dont know which candidate is the turkey. Happy thanksgiving, eric. Patty ann. Do you ever wonder why you get sleepy after Thanksgiving Dinner . Most people blame the turkey. Turkey doesnt have much more of triptofan than chicken and beef.

And 17 inches of snow and green grass. Well survey the damage from the historic snow storm in buffalo. Well another great thing about all this walking ive been doing is that its given me time to reflect on some of lifes biggest questions. Like, if you could save hundreds on Car Insurance by making one simple call, why wouldnt you make that call . See, the only thing i can think of is that you cant get any. Bars. Ah, thats better. Its a beautiful view. I wonder if i can see mt. Rushmore from here. Geico. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on Car Insurance. The fight against islamic terrorist with isis. The u. S. Is now shifting more attack and Surveillance Aircraft from afghanistan to wipe out isis in iraq and syria. Reporter we are talking about heavy firepower at this point. Not only reaper drones, but atten thunder bolt 2s, that are known as tank busters and war hogs. Take a look. U. S. Air force Officials Say the fighters were redeployed in afghanistan and a ratified in an undisclosed base on november 17th 21st. They are known for the machine guns mounted on the nose it is the largest automatic weapon used on the aircraft. And over all heavy firepower capability and sweeping in low and attacking enemy tanks and ground positions as well. And we saw them used by the wars in afghanistan and iraq. Military officials said reaper drones will be redeployed from afghanistan. To date as we reported, the u. S. Is using drones and bombers and f 18 hornest and apache helicopters along with help with Coalition Force aircraft as well. And as far as the air strikes go. The latest numbers she more than 1000 air strikes in august in iraq and syria and the questions remain whether the air strikes are doing enough. They have weakened isis positions and the mill at that point group in iraq and syria, but clearly have not destroyed isis and the militants and continuing the debate at this point, eric on whether a large
ground scale operation is necessary. We are told it will likely take a few years, patty ann. Details about a daring u. S. Raid in yemen. But when our commandos swooped in the province. They found eight other hostages but not the american. Joining us is lee ferris and the author of the lost spring and u. S. Policy on the middle east and catastrophes to avoid. Five hostages were moved from the cave days before the raid, what do you make of that . The problem in yemen, there is chaos. We have depend relation with the Counter Terrorism units. We trained most of them. The rest of the army is infiltrated and it is possible there are leaks from the army to
other organizations including to alqaeda and could be to iranian factions and it is not an easy landscape to work in especially with an american or european hostages on the ground. Details are kept quiet. But we are learning more now. What did we learn about the raid in yemen, if anything . We are learned on one hand and also and how far the yemeni armed fores can help us. And the situation is deteriorating and in the north, you have pro iranian militias and in the south, and in the center alqaeda is spreading. Alqaeda in yemen is stronger than the killing of the most important player in yemen or osama bin laden. And so this country in my view will probably be the next iraq in the region. You say that iran is pushing allies to seize the country to provoke a reaction from alqaeda . We have focused on isis and isil in syria and iraq but not paid attention to what the iranians are doing in yemen. They are pushing in northern yemen to seize the capitol. But the factions are pushing to take over the country and so alqaeda now in reaction as happen in iraq are seizing the large portions of the country. We are not facing one threat, but two threats in yemen. And in iran, the a yatolla is saying hes not opposed to extending the nuclear talks. The negotiation with the Iranian Regime is about them gaining time and outmaneuvering
washington. Meanwhile they are working on the long range missile. A nubbing without a long range missile is a sitting duck and now they have another six months and about yemen. Iran y is penetrating yemen and iraq and syria and lebanon. And unfortunately our failure in putting an end to the program is going to lead to a stronger iran in the next few weeks and months and years. You believe that the country will be divided in pieces . Yemen is showing just that. It is witnessing what happen in iraq and maybe in syria, the south is going to call for susession and there will be a fight over that. And the north in control of the iran and militias and the rest
will be a fight in the center. And fragmented country and it is a controlled the accesses to the red sea and access to the suez canal. And we saw rebels taking control of a compound that it belonged to a powerful tribal clan. You have rebels and tribes fighting. How does that play into it . Thats what the iranians are trying to do. They are backing the militia and taking one compound after another and waiting weeks or months and they will get to the coast. And then they could get support. And on the red sea. We are deployed in the persian gulf and now they are deployed in the red sea behind us. And alqaeda, well see from alqaeda the hostage taking
situation . There is a competition between alqaeda and isis over the leadership of the jihaddist worldwide. Isis is brutal and killing on on tv. Alqaeda has done that in the past. Will they seize and display as much violence or will they use the hostages to exchange them with other alqaeda detain owe in guantanamo or europe or other locations. Well have to wait and see. Walid phares thank you for joining us. Happy thanksgiving to you. And to you, too. Speaking of thanksgiving, a lot of folks spending time in the kitchen. And maybe you popped the turkey in the oven.

good . I dont know. Ketchup on it. I dont put anything on. It maybe spicy sauce and spicy sauce. Reporter the 6 and 7 years olds say turkey is not the only thing on the table. What is that type of stuffing, is it stuffing . I never tried stuffing. I like to oat stuffing and cockies and bread. We do other stuff sometimes you have ham and rolls and all kinds of stuff including corn. Thats what people like. I guess carrots. And i will eat apples and aspargus. I dont really like. It reporter visions of turkey legs dance in our head. Thanksgiving is about more than
the meal. I invite my family over to my house and gather around them and say what i am thankful for. I am thankful for texas. That is the spirit of thanksgiving. And especially like barbque sauce on turkey. Thank you from austin. This thanksgiving day. They are thankful in buffalo, new york. Mostly cloudy and 36 degrees.

Don take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be lifethreatening. Tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. Get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke.

Im a nonsmoker, that feels amazing. Ask your doctor if chantix
is right for you. Western new york is still cleaning up from the massive snowfall. The epic snow nearly wiped out one business completely. Rick has more. Reporter twisted metal and shattered glass, two and half acre of greenhouses crushed under the weight of the buffalo freeshish snow storm. We have seen four feet of snow. But never 6 or 7 in 30 hours. It started wet and heavy and just sat. Mark is a fourth generation farmer and he and his brother grow vegetables and flowers and they lost 85000 starter plants in one area and estimating damages in the millions. Demolition is the focus. And stable otherwising the water pipes and the boiler roms and shutting them down and freeze and are a total lost. This was rebuilt six years ago and the weight of the snow was too much for the glass panels and this is the result. Workers are trying it salvage one of the structures. You have a lot of work to do. Yes. 20 degrees nights are not working in my favor for the next 3 or 4 months it is the worst time of year to build a greenhouse. We build them in our vegetable season. It is bad timing. You dont have a choice. No choice. I see the sun come up tomorrow. Mark has plenty to be thankful for. Insurance will cover some of the losses and the kindness of friends and neighbors is helping to put the farm back on track. And you know Mother Nature is refouzing to coptwith the Holiday Plans of travellers. There are things to control and avoid delays and travel smarter. We have setting joining us now. I am glad you made it in. If you are traveling this holiday accept, what can we do to avoid those issues . Yeah, eric when you see the doctoreded word and cancelled. Airs do a good job of finding us the next vaebl seat to the airport we aretraveling. If you are flying to New York Laguardia but dont mind newark and jfk and that will get you nearer where you need. Tell the airline. And make sure they have your contact information. And so when you get the text and cull us, you can do it soon as
possible. And beyond that, technology is great and mobile boarding passes and keep a paper copy. When things go wrong you want to have a paper record. If they say the flight is cancelled, youre lying there on the carpet. What are our rights when it comes to the ticket or refund. What the airline obligated to do. Reporter first of all the gate agent will say go stand in the long line. And if you get in the line, call the airline as well. You are competing for few empty seats and whatever you can do in purpose or on the phone gives you a better shot. And airlines have certain obligations and when it is weather related, they are off of the hook for a lot and they will be flexible about you changing your plans. It will be close to where you are going. And one time we flew on christmas and no one was on the flight. Can you do that and move your itinary to avoid that mad rush. Reporter even that is getting more difficult than usual. That used to be the old trick. Everybody wants to fly on wednesday. But fly on thanksgiving and no one is flying that day. Airlines have realized, if there is less demand for travel today in thanksgiving, why fly the same schedule. And so basically it is it an effort to keep fares up. Just like mcdonald, not as many people will not eat the hamburgers. They dont make as many. The airlines can keep the fares up and not as many empty seats and cancelled flights yesterday, are not finding a day full of
flights today. It is good for them and not good for consumers. When they cancel the flights, it is like they get going . The next day, youve got people on those flights that are booked. Exactly. And thats where the picture is kind of mixed. One thing airlines do now thats very different from the old days, they used to just try to fly as long as they could. When the storm hit, you had all these planes and people stranded everywhere. Well, you might remember, the government actually changed the rules a few years ago. They have this tarmac delay rule where airlines can be fined literally millions of dollars for one plane load of people stranded away from the gate for more than three hours. So airlines have said, were going to do Anything Possible to avoid that. So what they do is, they proactively cancel hundreds, sometimes thousands of flights to avoid the possibility of that. So the upshot is, you dont see as many of those really terrible situations anymore. That one plane load full of people that we hear about. But they actually end up inconveniencing more people than before albeit in a smaller way. At least that way youre not delayed, even if its canceled. All right. Thank you so much for joining us. And happy thanksgiving. Happy thanksgiving to you, eric. The Christmas Spirit taking over one major city. A nighttime parade, artificial snowstorm, the works.

Such was the case for the polish wechsler family who operated a mill on the farm of their catholic friends. But they were in great danger to themselves hid the wechslers. One was 5, one 13. Both families survived the war. And havent seen each other for 69 years until this week. An emotional reunion as the now elderly women see each other for the First Time Since the end of the war. I think my heart would explode from the happiness, said elena. I thought i wou never be given the chance to see amira. Amira said she was very controlled, but a lot of emotion. Helena recounted the dangers. She was staying at the house with her mother and the germans were staying a hundred feet from our house. The reunion was brought up by bringing Holocaust Survivors to the families who denied nazi rule to obey a higher law. I think its important, its not dead history. Reporter joining the reunion, some of miras children and grandchildren, realizing that without this familys sacrifice, mira may not have survived the war and they would not be here. The intergenerational reunion only possible because one Christian Family helped their jewish neighbors. In new york, lauren green, fox news. New york city had its macys thanksgiving day parade today. Thats not americas only holiday spectacle. In bellview, washington, the tenth anniversary of the over the top christmas extravaganza. It takes over the streets in bellview outside seattle. Theres a nightly parade with fake snow, and it brings lots of business to the huge Shopping Center and provides jobs to local teens. Welcome to a new hour of happening now.

John and jenna are off today. Historic snow levels in West Virginia. Records also broken in albany, new york, and concord, New Hampshire. Where theres more than ten inches of accumulation. This Winter Weather slog may not even be over yet. Meteorologist maria malena has more from the fox extreme weather center. Hi, maria. Thank you. We saw significant storm bring all kinds of snow totals across places like West Virginia, up into maine, with many areas seeing more than a foot of snow. You can see portions of West Virginia picking up to 20 inches, in New Hampshire seeing up to 18. 4 inches. That storm system is now out of here, leaving behind cold temperatures. We have lakeenhanced snow showers as far south as pennsylvania and ohio, lingering snow showers as well. Across portions of upstate new york. Across the Pacific Northwest on this thanksgiving day, we do have another storm system rolling through producing areas of rain and showers along the 5 through oregon, and also washington state. And lingering snow showers across portions of the Northern Rockies. But overall, thanksgiving day is very quiet weatherwise. Most of the country looking at dry conditions. We have cold temperatures across
portions of the midwest and northern plains. Highs only in the teens in cities like fargo. Meanwhile, across parts of the south, a lot of sunshine. Very pleasant temperatures. Falllike in the 40s in atlanta. Youre in the 60s, though, in places like tampa, houston, tulsa. Southern california, 84 degrees for the high in l. A. Sunshine and clouds. Back to you.

Snow and Winter Weather keeping many demonstrators away. On the third night since that grand jury decided not to indict officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of michael brown. Were in ferguson with the latest today. Hi, mike. Reporter eric, i dont think anybody was complaining about the bad weather last night. Because it really changed the picture out here. You had a small handful of demonstrators here in ferguson
in front of the city Police Department. For the most part they stood in front of the National Guardsmen who were standing sentry at the city Police Headquarters there. They took off walking a couple of different directions. A little bit of skirmishes, no major clashes. Only two people were arrested. We can show you video from inside of the ferguson market and liquor. Thats really where this all got started. That is where the cigars were stolen by mike brown. Well, the looters busted through the front door there. You can see in the video, someone starts a fire, sprays an accelerant on top of that fire. Something that people are pointing to as kind of a heartwarming moment through all of the destruction and all of that looting, is that someone takes milk. It looks like milk, anyway, and pours it on top of the fire to prevent it from becoming one of the burnedout hulks we see up and down the avenue here. The sun is out right now. However, most people are
predicting a calm day. Looking to friday and saturday where there is some information that there might be some trouble then. Eric . Mike, thank you very much for that report. Patty ann .

President obamas executive action on immigration has the tea party all fired up, and some activists are predicting that come the 2016 elections, it could become a bigger issue than obamacare. Eric erickson is fox news contributor. President obama is said, has provided a blast of energy for the tea party. Do you agree . Yeah, i definitely think so. Were seeing it around the country. In fact, youre seeing republicans who prior to the election was open to the plan, now taking a tough stance against it, sounding very much
like the tea party, some of them even campaigned against. Much is being made of this discord between the gop establishment and the tea party. And we certainly saw some of that in the midterms. But you say theyre not as far apart as they seem. Well, if you listen to even the language of the Establishment Republicans who won, and even beat Tea Party Activists in primaries, theyre running on appealing obamacare and sealing the border, which was the Tea Party Message all along. They may have beaten Tea Party Activists, but theyve adopted their message to do it. So the tea party pushed the gop to the right . Right. So what do you predict for 2016 . You know, theres this backlash that always happens against the tea party, you know, a lot of the democrats saying this candidate is a tea party guy, as a very bad thing. Well, but if you look at the polling, the tea party per se, isnt necessarily popular. Less than 50 polling. But the issues they run on are popular, repealing obamacare, sealing the border. They dont need to run under the tea party label. Most of the National Tea Party groups arent going to be putting candidates forward. But people will run with their message. The message matters more than the Actual Tea Party organization. So, you feel that its almost youre not saying they should hides their tea party a fal yags. No, no. That they should downplay the term tea party, and just run on the issues. I think they need to run on the issues. They dont need to be affiliated, or tied directly to the tea party. Theyll get attacked for it with their message anyway, but run on the message that wins. Right now, we saw in 2014, 2010, to some degree in 2012, the Tea Party Message wins even if the label doesnt. So in this midterm election, the Tea Party Candidates did better in open seats than they did in challenging incumbent
republicans. Right. Yeah, the tea party, they didnt have the funding to take off incumbent republicans. For example, cochran in mississippi. But the open nebraska seat, and around the country in house races, were going to see a much more conservative house in 2015 than we saw even from 2012 to 2014, when john boehner was having trouble corralling them already. You mentioned the funding. That is an issue. There are some Tea Party Candidates whom the gop establishment wont support, trying to kind of avoid that label. Is the funding situation going to change . Well, you know, in 2016, a lot of the establishment funding will be tied into president ial races. So it will be an opportunity for grass roots to come in from behind and fund congressional and senate races in a way that all that money will otherwise be tied up in the president ial race. Although the tea party has been much more successful in midterm elections. They kind of learned their lessons in how to apply funding. Its not all about the funding. Theres this whole online thing of just trying to get some buzz going, trying to be trending. Right. Is the tea party trying to get better at that kind of messaging . I think so. The tea party is a diverse group. Local tea parties around the country at the county level tend to be much more activist and engaged than the National Groups that turned their time to fundraising. Often fundraising just for consultants and it doesnt even go to candidates. The local people are very committed to candidates and low dollar donors. I think youll probably see in 2016 the president ial candidates rise to the top, it will be the guy who gets a lot of small dollar donors. Yeah. Eric erickson, red state. Com. Happy thanksgiving. Thank you. Happy thanksgiving. The Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader ginsberg has been released from the hospital and she is heading home today. One day after she received a heart stint. Doctors implanted the device

Quitting smoking this time was different because i got a prescription for chantix. Along with support, Chantix Varenicline is proven to help people quit smoking. The fact that it reduced the urge to smoke helped me get that confidence that i could do it. Some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. Some people had seizures while taking chantix. If you notice any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. Tell your doctor about any history of Mental Health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix or history of seizures. Don take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be lifethreatening. Tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or develop new or worse symptoms. Get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. Common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. I love myself as a nonsmoker. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. A new opinion poll shows a majority of russians believe their countrys troops are not fighting in eastern ukraine. 45 say they would be glad if russian soldiers were fighting there. They said Russian Troops are providing the backbone for ukraines prorussia rebels. This all coming amid new protests in ukraine over the countrys inaugural session of parliament. Ukraines president calling for an immediate overhaul of its justice system. Eric . Patty ann, the Ferguson Police shooting is now beingng exploited by isis. Yes, were learning that the islamic terrorists there are now using the social media to try and urge protesters to pledge allegiance to the Islamic State, vowing if they do, isis will help those protesters launch
attacks on police here in our country and in the american system. This propaganda move comes as the u. S. Is deploying more air power in the battle against isis. We have a security analyst for the clarion project. Ryan, this is unbelievable when isis over there starts pouncing on issues like ferguson here in our country. What does it mean . They want to be relevant no matter what the issue is. They say if you pledge allegiance to us, well help you with your rioting. What youre doing is no different than what hamas or the other jihadists do around the world. Theyre trying to connect with whats going on internationally to whats going on in the u. S. Domestically. They say this proves the american experiment of democracy has failed. For black people, you have no place in america, you need to follow a different system, and the best system for you is sharia. Some of the protesters might be saying, what are you talking about. Some may agree. Most would say, you know, were
not protesting that. Theyre protesting the shooting, those issues. But radical groups like isis can try and portray it in that manner . Right. Well, first every all, its partially in order to boost the morale of their own supporters, saying, america is crumbling internally. Theyre hoping to also pick off a few of the people that are angry over whats going on in ferguson. And infect them with their ideology. They want to just they want to be in the mix. They always want to be in the headlines. Is there a possibility weve seen this with sympathizer in the past that there could be people who could pick up on this and sympathize. There have been arrests of several people trying to go over to syria and join isis. Sure. Thats because whether its racist like the kkk, or radical islamic forces, theres always a common theme, which is that the u. S. Government, u. S. Society is out to get you. All the forces that have the evil caricature of the american Law Enforcement, theyre responsible for creating
situations like this. Theyre tweeting this out and showing pictures. Well just show one from the demonstration. This is an actual tweet from isis. The reason is because they want to characterize this as antiamerican rioting. This isnt just about a shooting. That this is a way of condemning the United States as a whole. What are they saying in some of these tweets . Theyre saying obviously join isis, well come to help you. And theyre even calling for people to commit beheadings. Beheadings here in the United States. Specifically in ferguson. In ferguson . Thats what they want to happen. They want it to happen everywhere, but they specifically want it to happen in ferguson against Law Enforcement. I dont care what they say, these are savages, theyre barbarians and terrorists there. What are the chances that some deluded person potentially could be brainwashed by all this junk, and actually carry something out . Its possible. And thats because when you have this mindset that america is essentially evil, its very
foundations are unjust, thats thetion. Isis can come in and say sharia is your answer. And isis is going to be under increasing pressure in iraq, as terrorists are being slaughtered by our military. Theres a lot of talk about the homegrown type terrorist, we see the allegations against joe carson, with the bombing in boston. Finally, is there a fear that all this stuff can get into somebodys head and that could potentially cause a lone wolf or someone could potentially carry something out . It can even influence people who arent muslim. That the u. S. Government, Law Enforcement is evil, that the violence previously forbidden becomes permissible. With the Online Publications that give instructions on how to create bombs and attack police,
that becomes useful for anyone that reads it. A lot of propaganda, a lot of trying to stir these things up. Hopefully theyre not successful. Thank you very much. Thank you. Eric, lots of travelers are not giving thanks to Mother Nature this week. Well tell you what were seeing and what you might expect op the commute home. The grand jury determined there was no probable cause to file charges against ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson. But that may not mean the case is over. Nyquil cold and flu liquid gels dont unstuff your nose. Really . Alkaseltzer plus night rushes relief to eight symptoms of a full blown cold including your stuffy nose. breath of relief oh, what a relief it is. Thanks. Anytime. Many folks still trying to get home for the holiday, now, after a travel nightmare. A massive storm hit the east coast making for some dangerous roads. And it canceled more than 700 flights yesterday. Of course, that delayed thousands more, and knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of customers. Brian has the very latest. Hi, eric. There are an estimated 400,000 people who are now without power as of this thanksgiving morning, in new york, pennsylvania, virginia, and West Virginia. Now, about 80,000 of those customers live in maine. But the hardest hit state is New Hampshire. Where some 200,000 people are in the dark. The state now experiencing their fourth largest power outage ever, after 18 inches of snow fell in parts of the state yesterday. New hampshire Officials Say power will not be restored in time for Thanksgiving Dinner. In fact, they warn residents they could be left without electricity for days. We snow blowed the driveway, and i went in about five of 9 00 and was taking a shower, and everything went black. Since then its just been a cool night. Well just hope the power comes on quickly. Dont worry, he told our affiliate hes planning on going to his daughters house that has power this thanksgiving. The wintry mix of snow and rain creating travel havoc yesterday on one of the years busiest travel days. Yesterday, 751 flights were canceled nationwide, according to flight aware. Com. To put that in perspective on tuesday, the day before, there were only 140 cancellations. Now to the roads, where they were icy and slippery, check out these dangerous conditions in monroe county, pennsylvania, about 90 of travelers choose to drive during the holidays. In new jersey, governor Chris Christie declared a state of emergency, where more than 200 accidents were reported. Roads are still icy and people are being urged to remain cautious. Its slippery, wet. Ive got three sweaters, a scarf, two pairs of socks. Trying to keep as warm as i can. Weve got 17 people coming over and theyve got to eat, so got to get the supplies. For most the worst seems to be past of us. But parts of new england could see another two to four inches by tonight. Were just getting a report actually of two children who were found after being buried in a pile of snow after a snowplow came over, in new york, they were found and they are okay. Just a reminder of the dangers that happen after these storms. People have to remain vigilant and cautious. If youve got kids, youve got to be really careful about that. Thats dangerous when the snowplows come through. The kids play in the piles of snow on the side of the road. Get them in the yard, or in the park. That can be very dangerous. Thankfully this ended well. That is definitely good news. Also we want everyone to at least be safe. Thank you. No problem. The firestorm of debate continues after a prosecutors decision to release the evidence, the grand jury reviewed in the shooting death of michael brown. While the grand jury has put an end to the states case against ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson, could this decision to release the documents influence future action in the case, including the Justice Departments ongoing investigation. Joining us now whitney bone, criminal defense attorney and dan shore, former prosecutor. Thank you both so much for joining us on this thanksgiving day. Good to see you. You say the grand jury proceeding was a farce. Because the grand jury was asked to evaluate whether there was probable cause that Darren Wilson did not act in selfdefense. You object to that phrasing . I do. I think that the issue was that the prosecutor in this case, mr. Mccullough, he presented it to the grand jury in a manner that to me came off as actually
dishonest. He presented it in a manner that he expected them not to issue an indictment, which kind of bastardized the whole process of having a grand jury. I think it was a farce. I think that they should have had the accountability as governmental officials, that if they thought there was not sufficient evidence to prosecute Darren Wilson, to stand behind that and not to take it to a grand jury and ask them to make some public validation of something that they dont have the ability to do. Dan, how would you evaluate the prosecutors handling of the case . The prosecutors role is different than any other attorney. Theyre not supposed to seek a specific goal or work for a specific interest. Theyre supposed to seek truth and justice. Different witnesses are going to be treated differently in the grand jury, and witnesses who this prosecutor thought were lying or had inconsistent statements, they were confronted in a vigorous way. Other witnesses werent. Thats appropriate. Then the grand jury can sift through all of that and make a decision. If people want to debate how the grand jury heard evidence, whether the prosecutor should have asked different questions
or call different witnesses, thats legitimate. But this was a complicated case and it was right for a grand jury to hear everything and reach a decision. We know exactly what went on because of the release of the grand jury proceedings, transcripts. Whitney, you feel this might cause a Chilling Effect on witnesses down the road . I do. I think that the whole concept of a grand jury was created upon the idea that the witnesses that testified there would have a level of anonymity, and that they would not be subjected to having their identities disclosed. It was meant to protect Law Enforcement. Its really an odd situation where youre dealing with a cop who is now the suspect and the subject of the grand jury proceedings, but the bottom line is, i mean, it was intended to be confidential. It was intended to be secret since we developed this system back, taking it from the british system preceding the american system. So im concerned about what effect that will have in the future on witnesses ability to
testify and feel comfortable doing so. Dan, before the release, you had a lot of people objecting to the decision without even having all the facts. Now they have all the facts. We learned a lot of things, including a lot of information about officer wilsons side of the story. Do you support the transcript release . Absolutely. And i agree that we want to make sure our witnesses arent afraid to testify in a grand jury. Thats why its usually kept secret. But here their names were redacted. This is an important case for a lot of reasons. Its also a very complicated case. You have witnesses who testified in the grand jury who have very different versions of what happened that day. Can you imagine what people would be saying now if the evidence and the grand jury transcripts were not released and all we heard was there was a grand jury decision not to indict . Its really important that the evidence is available to the public, so people can really look through it, read through it, and then question things that they think might not have been done right and think what they think was done correctly. Whitney, whats next . We have a Justice Department investigation, a potential for a civil suit . Right. Thats correct. The issue of whether or not theyll be able to utilize the testimony from the grand jury for the department of justice, if they decide to pursue some civil remedies against Darren Wilson for violating Michael Browns civil rights, that will be interesting to see how that develops. But its definitely still out there. Its still a possibility. It doesnt look likely theyll issue a federal indictment for criminal charges against Darren Wilson, but theres still the possibility of pursuing a violation of 1983, and Michael Browns civil rights. Dan, what do you think should happen next . Well, certainly the federal government should investigate it. And they are, theyre going to see whether they can make a case for a civil rights violation. All of the key witnesses presumably have been locked into states now in the grand jury. So those statements will be used by federal prosecutors, federal investigators. Of course, a civil suit is going to come out of this. Lawyers in the civil suit can also use the transcripts and prior statements as they build that case. Its all going to be relevant and it will all be used as legal
proceedings go on. Dan and whitney, thank you both so much for joining us, and happy thanks giving. You, too. There was a bold smashandgrab robbery caught on camera. A minivan crashes into the store.

Reflections on the special relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom this thanksgiving, from freedom to u. S. Soldiers who fought in world war ii. Hi, amy. Hi, patty ann. Well, each year there is thanksgiving service for americans at st. Pauls cathedral in london. Many say it is a natural home for americans here, because it hosts the american Memorial Chapel. That is something that was put together after world war ii. St. Pauls was damaged during the blitz. And when it was being repaired, british men and women raised money for this chapel to commemorate patty ann, the 28,000 American Service men who died while they were on their
way over here or during their time being based in britain, defending europe against the nazis. Before turkeys were getting popped into ovens across the pond, st. Pauls cathedral in london were alive with the sounds of america the preparations for this thanksgiving ceremony were under way, and u. S. Marine color guard posing with the choir. The musical director warming up. This service is about welcoming the American Community to st. Pauls. Its great to be able to share the energy and enthusiasm of the thanksgiving feast. American choirs joined st. Pauls choir in this place with special meaning for the United States. At the far end of the cathedral behind the main altar is the american Memorial Chapel. Built to commemorate the americans who died defending europe during world war ii. The u. S. Ambassador to london thanked st. Paul for hosting the
london flock, and spoke about the meaning of the holiday. We count our own blessings, 1621 in the first thanksgiving, so thankful for the blessings, at the same time remembering the those around the world who need more blessings. So we bring both that spirit of thankfulness and the need to continue to do more for others on thanksgiving. Patty ann, lots of thanks given today for the special relationship. And the Senior Pastor at the church here gave the sermon. He pointed out that only 10 of people typically give thanks to their colleagues on a regular basis for the work they do together. So i figured i should take this opportunity, patty ann, to say thank you for being a terrific colleague. Thank you, amy, as well. Happy thanksgiving to you as well. Thanks. Thanks. Many u. S. Troops are celebrating thanksgiving a long way from home. Some eating their turkey dinners at nato headquarters in kabul,
afghanistan, marking the last thanksgiving celebration before the u. S. And nato combat mission there is scaled back. This coming december 31st. Speaking of thanks, wall street is on a roll. The markets going up and up and up ahead of the thanksgiving holiday. The dow jones setting another record this week. Some analysts say were in the middle of a continuing bull market. But how long can it last. Steve moore is chief economist for the Heritage Foundation and fox news contributor. First of all, steve, happy thanksgiving to you. Same to you. Its going up and up, seems like no stopping. But thats when i get worried. Well, look, im bullish. I think this market has a way to go. As you said, a few minutes ago, i think actually this market could hit 20,000 by the end of next year. Were knocking on the door of a dow 18,000. I think we could see a dow 20. By the way, i think thats because Business Conditions have really improved. American companies are very profitable. And the old saying that profits
are the mothers milk of the stock market, were really seeing that in spades right now. You hear about europe, and they say thats going to go up and suddenly youre in a recession, and china is now a house of cards. No, its going up. How do you sort this out . Do you want to spoil the day here . Youre right, there are some negative trends here. Youre right, europe is a big minus for the world economy. It hurts the u. S. When europe is essentially in a recession. These countries like spain and italy and germany are in recession right now essentially. The u. S. Is really leading the Global Economy right now. The way i always put it is right now the bestrun companies in the world are american companies. And they are profitable. Theyre incredibly efficient. I would mention one industry in particular that has just been so important in terms of this turn upward in the u. S. Economy, and that obviously is the oil and gas industry which is super charging the economy, not just only with jobs in that industry, but also causing a kind of nice
renaissance in American Manufacturing right now. What do you do . If youre in the market, i mean, what would you suggest . Where should we look for it . Are there still bargains or is it potentially too late . You know, its always really difficult to predict where the market is going to go week to week. I always tell people, stocks for the long run, if youve got a 401 k plan or retirement plan, as you know, you want to be at least some portion, you know, at least half of your nest egg should be in the stock market. The longterm return on stocks after inflation for the last 100 years has been 7 . As i look at the economy, i think its picking up. Weve got a good number on the gdp last week. Theres real reason to be confident that we have not hit the end of this bull market. Its a good time to be in stocks. By the way, if youre not in stocks, what do you want to do . Buy a tenyear Treasury Bill at 2 Interest Rate . Youre not going to make any money that way. But also, not only if youre not in stocks, and this is kind
of interesting, there is the group of people who benefit. Then youve got the Labor Participation rate. That is so high. Millions who are out of work. And can only work parttime. The effects of obamacare on those out of work and this sort of thing. How come both things dont correlate . Stock market is up here and other things are down here and people are having a tough time. I call it a bipolar economy right now. Youve got one area where the stock market is on a tear and american businesses are doing really well, and youre right, a lot of American Workers have not seen a pay raise now for six years. By the way, one of the things we want to do is get more americans into the stock market. As the economy improves, and businesses improve, everybody does better. We want to be a nation of capitalists. Lets hope we start to see those wages rise. Because eric, it has been six years now that the average American Worker has not had a pay raise. Thats a big problem. Steve moore, bipolar economy, very well put. Thanks for getting better. Happy thanksgiving to you. Happy thanksgiving to you. Thank you. How would you like to go to the gas station and you go to pay and there are robbers in there swinging a machete.

They were using a giant knife to break into a coinoperated game and chased the clerk down the aisle. They traced it back to this home in florida, hollywood, florida. The two guys are now in jail. More than 700 flight delays nationwide this thanksgiving holiday left thousands and thousands of travelers cooling their heels around the country. What can you do to avoid problems . A little late for some. Mark murphy is the founder and ceo of travelpulse. Com. He is here with Holiday Travel tips. Thank you for joining us. Talk about the people that are half way through and stuck someplace . Enjoy the shopping at the
airport mall. Its ironic, the airports made the airports a destination themselves because of this. You dont get compensated. The airlines are like we dont have control over the weather. If its outside their scope of control, you are stuck. However, if they leave your stranded, even with weather issues on the plane for more than a certain number of hours, you get fined. Thats why you see the proactive cancellations. The last thing they want to do is leave people stranded on the plane and 25 million per passenger. Because of that fear of fines, they are going in the other direction. We hear about random cancellations. Thats the law of unintended consequence. If the government is going to do this, the airlines pull back and make it worse for the traveler. You may have had a decent chance to get out. What about the Airline Mergers . What impact have they had . The airlines have gotten very, very good at making money and limiting capacity. As demand picked up and the economy improved, the math picks up, cost per seat goes way up. Theres 85 of all Domestic Travel being controlled by four major carriers, little competition on the routes. You are pretty much stuck. Like out of philadelphia, im based near philly, you are stuck. You have to look at other airline departure places like trenton, new jersey where frontier goes out of. There are secondary airports, if you are near a more obscure one, you can save money. Thats it.
