Court says a former f.b.i. Lawyer is being investigated for allegedly altering a document related to former Trump campaign advisor Carter page Investigators say the student who opened fire on classmates last week in Southern California used a ghost gun then with Elizabeth Warren's proposal for a wealth tax on billionaires what would that mean for the rest of us there is some research circumstantial to be sure that the stronger economies have more billionaires but have enough to really mean you need billionaires to have a strong economy but it doesn't get the 2 things go hand in hand Greg good economics commentator at the Wall Street Journal on the potential of fewer billionaires. A former National Security Council member has testified that a theory that Ukraine interfered in the 2016 elections was a fictional narrative fueled by Russian propaganda Fiona Hill says that was just President Trump's rationale for pushing Kiev to investigate the matter her testimony was similar to others who've outlined efforts to convince Ukraine's president to announce investigations that could help Mr Trump politically in exchange the Ukrainians reportedly sought to arrange a White House meeting Ms Hill referenced the involvement of Rudy Giuliani Mr Trump's personal attorney he was being involved in a domestic political errand and we were being involved in national security foreign policy on those 2 things that justify a high a Republican Congressman Jim Jordan we all know that Russia battle the election but that's not to say Ukraine didn't try to influence the election that's the words we have used all along allies of the president point to a story by Politico 2 years ago to support theories that it was Ukraine not Russia that hacked Democratic e-mails in 2016. The longtime leader of Israel has become the country's 1st sitting prime minister to be indicted Benjamin Netanyahu has been hit with charges including bribery fraud and breach of trust and connect. In with 3 separate corruption cases more from this morning's Mike Gavin The indictment alleges Mr Netanyahu accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars of champagne and cigars from wealthy businessmen and was willing to trade favors with a newspaper publisher and telecom magnate for positive coverage in the press Mr Netanyahu calls the allegations a witch hunt the indictment which he characterized Evan attempted coup does not require him to resign but charges come as Israel finds itself in a political stalemate following inconclusive elections in April and September 3rd election in under a year may be needed Gordon thinking like Mr Netanyahu is a former commando who's more than 13 years in office has been defined by repeated promises to keep Israel secure and prosperous while sidelining Palestinians USA Today says he could see his dominance of the country's polarized politics abruptly end in any new election.

Thanks Rush Limbaugh I know you're glad I'm on the station. Thank you for listening to Fox News Radio 94 miles w. . We appreciate. Your insight last week or you're listening to America's 1st news this morning with Gordon deal. Thanks for joining us welcome to Friday former President Barack Obama he is urging fellow Democrats to chill out about the party's 2020 primary field and to avoid putting candidates through what he called purity tests he spoke to party donors yesterday after the latest presidential debate Meanwhile with Peabody judge surging in the early states but struggling to build a diverse coalition the Democratic nominating process could take a long time to complete more from Josh Krauss har politics editor at National Journal Josh what do we have been it looks at the polling that we've seen in the last week or 2 showing Mayor Peter share leading in Iowa and in most polls and one poll created just one poll shows him but the big lead in New Hampshire as well you know when you kind of came out the primary process if Mayor pivot people should win and that Iowa does well in New Hampshire that would create sort of the ultimate chaotic situation given his own weaknesses what nonwhites voters so I wouldn't Hampshire being among the most racially image of the state on the entire map Well you know I'm skeptical that even even a really strong showing in those 1st 2 years 2 states are going to translate into success of Nevada caucuses the most up to a lot of primary so that would create a just a wide open chaotic process where there would be I think no front runner and we would see a very protracted process where this could go all the way to the convention south you know look Joe Biden could win I wonder Hampshire with everything early on it and he probably you know could wrap it up if he was the person that would it look a lot of those pictures but you know given all the talk about given that you have Deval Patrick to enter the race Bloomberg could actually enter into. This is a bit much of a deal but the flux I've never seen before so there's at least some momentum it seems for mayor p.p. Because money more than one poll has shown now that he leads in Iowa. But it's Joe Biden who continues to lead nationally in the polling so how does that square with with save on an obit be no voters come February 3rd in Iowa. Holding its own media to the very least and stabilize the history it's about pressure and stumbles like show gaining ground it's about a Polls show gaining ground it's a little warmer and by the way who has lost support both nationally and in the early state polls and that's something to keep an eye on because what's happened in the last few weeks to the one campaign that you've done a lot of scrutiny show a lot a lot of attention paid health care plan which we're chill out a lot of people think about real estate and very very expensive. But you know this is the white of you know Biden is in 4th place and so I'm only did I would call it if you could shift it even to the 4th place to be put in it and he gets knocked out of you know he is going to be a lot of uncertainty on who that Democratic nominee is going to be a key to my court but you know like the Republican process with 2016 to Democrat the proportional you know these primaries and caucuses they allocate the delegates proportionally so anyone who gets 50 percent of all pretty much gets up at 3 of a percentage of the delegates and that creates effective for the 1st candidate the staying and people to hang around for a longer about a time and it also a lot of uncertainty and it's a likelihood of a protracted speak with Josh Kraushaar he's politics editor at National Journal he's written a piece in titled prepare for Democratic primary chaos. So how about this scenario if Joe Biden were to win the Iowa caucuses then what. Well you know I think I don't read the column but you. That most most effective scenario for Democrats is Biden wins Iowa probably means you're going to do well in New Hampshire and then you have a favorite in South Carolina had a I mean that's a scenario as a bottom to the front runner he actually lived up to the expectation he could put the right away and you know kind of like if you don't the Democrats almost anyone else is going to get to really be be rounded up like a couple of opposition you know like I said good as you would by what their camps are pretty disappointed with what you call your present with African-American talk Carolina you know even even if he approves of a little bit I have a hard time seeing how he went the next 2 state it would have Democratic mayors you know look at the war and what if she does well in Iowa over and over and church you know there's going to be a panic among moderates that she might get a Democrat but a cop maybe a watch given her. Position and her opponent not to look at battleground states so you know it's Biden I don't have to but I we're going an answer at this point if not I just if you know Dr I want to thank you Josh Josh Krause HAARP politics editor at National Journal.

Officials in Ukraine by mid summer that President Champ had been pressing to get the Ukrainian government to announce investigations into matters that would benefit him politically State Department official David Holmes I clear impression was that the security assistance hole that was likely intended by the president either as an expression of dissatisfaction with Ukrainians who are not yet agreed to the breeze made by an investigation or as an effort to increase the pressure on them to do so White House dismissed the day's testimony arguing that the witnesses have no direct knowledge regarding the reason the u.s. Aid to Ukraine was withheld the indictment of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to sharpen the battle lines in Israel's already deadlocked political system and could test the loyalty of his right wing allies and it appears to have dashed any remaining hopes for. A unity government following September selections paving the way for an unprecedented 3rd vote in less than a year that corruption charges will weigh heavily on Netanyahu is Likud Party but it's unclear if any senior member has the support or willingness to replace him president signed a short term spending bill hours before the government was set to run out of money as disagreements on border wall funding have again stymied progress on the full year fent funding bills earlier in the day the Senate approved the stopgap measure which keeps the government funded through December 20th the House passed the bill on Tuesday.

Thanks in large part to a strong job market people are making their bills they're making their payments delinquencies are unemployment slow but people aren't making progress either so the fact that 2 thirds Oh at least as much as they did relative to the past decade we're just not getting ahead and that's the risk if there's a downturn ahead you've got experience looking at this stuff is it's 50 percent of us have put emergency purchases on there and 50 percent of us can say no and we just like to shop like would to explain these numbers when people get into credit card debt the top 2 factors are emergency expenses that accounts for about a 3rd of people in credit card debt and then there's roughly another 3rd who say it's just day to day expenses that's a tricky one to interpret because you know yes there's this need to put food on the table and a roof over your head and that is necessary day to day living I think some people though are putting lifestyle creep into this category and just always raising their standard of living right up to the limit and not really making progress paying down the dad and then the other 3rd are more discretionary kind of things just really no room for interpretation may or vacations electronics retail purchases that's generally the other 3rd Ok we're speaking of Ted Rosman industry analyst at bankrate dot com They've got a new survey the finds only 35 percent of us a lesson on credit cards relative to the past decade I mean if the economy is good like it is now the job market is strong like it is now a move we're not improving on credit card debt at this point when are we right right that's the problem and high interest rates are playing into this credit card rates even though they've come down a little bit this year they haven't come down all that much they went from about 17 and 3 quarter percent to about 17 and one quarter percent and you're probably going to notice that if you're only.

And some of them in particular the well back to post by Senator Elizabeth Warren would actually chip away the fortunes so that a lot of the minister would not be billionaires any longer I think rates an interesting question about whether or not billionaires is really good for the economy I mean we know of course that billionaires wouldn't be happy about this but what about the rest of the country and were there in some research circumstantial to be sure that suggests that stronger economies have more billionaires but didn't really mean you need billionaires to have a strong economy but it does suggest the 2 things go hand in hand and maybe wouldn't be better off getting rid of all your billionaires are there countries that say Thank goodness we tax those billionaires because we as a government were so efficient in spending that extra revenue that we got the one of the controversy Deborah Well taxes that other countries have tried well tax and generally had not much expensive with them they have either abandoned them altogether or they find that they don't rein very much money with them and one of the reasons why is that 1st of all it's hard to actually measure Well sometimes I mean we can measure your stock portfolio but what about your land or your beachfront property or your art collection current the holding of a private partnership that sort of thing the other thing that the rich people tend to be pretty know by a way and there is research from the United States that went after Irish state taxes or personal or corporate taxes wealthy people both entrepreneurs and Aronson to fortune tend to move and so if you're going to put the wealth back you have to come up with the possibility that some of those folks are going to leave the country you said to how a billionaire earns his or her fortune matters of course that one of these rent seekers that you reference here when you go to a place like Russia Ukraine you have a lot of oligarchy of billionaires not because they invented something really smart and had a great product that made the country and consumers better off because they had privileged access to some vital industry or market for example natural gas or telecommunications and so they're not really making a country wealthier in many ways are actually doing. The opposite but the more important distinction for a country like United States is people who built their own fortune 1st people inherited them and it is the case that you can probably tax inheritance with a bit more without having you have big negative impact on the economy and I think the bigger problem of taxes that tend to tackle both wealth creators and wealth inheritors there are some billionaires who would have who would never get as wealthy as they did if they're being forced to give up a big chunk of that every year maybe they wouldn't have the incentive to build companies that would lose control of companies because they're selling our shares in order to pay those taxes and maybe need to have let the Billy to start a new company with the wealth they had earned from their original venture speak with Greg if chief economics commentator at the Wall Street Journal he's written a piece entitled what you were billionaires could mean for the rest of us what about something like capital gains taxes rather than the wealth tax that is that proven to be beneficial. To capital gains tax basically recognize the fact that sometimes people are near returns from a corporate holding not from dividends but from the appreciation of the shares and that we've had capital gains taxes in place for a while they're not going to be able at the right level of the capital gains tax on to be written with aren't clear lines that say that if you die and pass your shares on to your children the children around don't have to pay capital gains tax no matter how much they've appreciated in the lifetime of the person who just passed away you can make a case that dapper to get a loophole should be closed so that those shares will one day pay capital gains tax and it's hard to argue that's going to have an impact on the behavior of wealthy people alive today because they're not really thinking much about the fact that took eventually going to be dead what was the reference you made to Mark Zuckerberg the founder of Facebook how do you even of that piece. Some of the advocates of wealth actually look even if Mark Zuckerberg had a pale look at Lawrence Welk tack you still be a very wealthy man I mean if the person whose wealth has grown by 40 percent a year since 2008 so surely a 6 part. Well tax wouldn't make much difference and I guess my response that would be is that you know Mark Zuckerberg is simply exceptional There aren't any other billionaires as well as quote 40 percent per year since 2008 it's much more common for billionaires well to grow at modest single digit rates and some billionaires actually see their fortunes go down because the investments that they had did not work out so those people would see the portions substantially and I think a more relevant question would be with their behavior change with their ability to launch new ventures and I think that is one of the kind of unintended consequences that advocates of a wealth tax really haven't come to grips with yet Thanks Greg Greg Ip chief economics commentator at the Wall Street Journal coming up next 2 examples of travelers behaving badly.
