One model dry and sunny. Another afternoon showers, well have a much better watching the forecast closely theres no running away from an interview with funny result you got to listen carefully. Happened in melbourne, joggers doing an interview. The reporter asked a jogger the question and the jogger takes it little too literal. Erica. And so its last i meant your first and last name im so nervous. No one in a decade has done that, well done you are ok, do you think he totally bated her the way he worded it you doe people get nervous. You approach them on the street like that. But all in how he asked the question. He said spell first and last. Which she did and who cant spell erica, o donnell i feel bad this has gone viral. That does it for me, im annie yu thanks so much with waking up with us this morning were going to talk to foxs chris was me about Fox News Sunday and after the break, fox news on the hill, well be right back back. 8 24. Good morning to chris wallace. The big interview, the Vice President elect pence, weve heard so much talk about the inner workings setup. Jared kushner, priebus. Pence seems to have been left out. You saw the reagan close, baker, deber, how do you compare and contrast with what Ronald Reagan put in place with what you see now i got to say, i disagree with you about pence, i dont think hes been left out at all. I think hes going to be an enormously important player. I think that he is basically going to be the person pushing the trump agenda up on capitol. Remember, he was there for a dozen years, close ties with paul ryan, Good Relationship with image mcconnell in the senate, trump has a very ambitious agenda. Some wonder if its almost too ambitious. In terms of what he wants to put on congresss plate, everything from repealing obamacare to infrastructure to building a wall. I think to a very large degree the key person on capitol hill pushing that is going to be former congressman and very soon to be vice es all of the Media Attention goes to the other three, seems to me mike pence is almost the point man almost in the way dick dick cheyney was in the early year, how key is his relationship. Donald trump for all of his attention and fame comes to the city this week as a newcomer. Thats exactly right. In the end, the president is the president. I suspect as we see as allege dare deal maker hes going to want to bring people into the white house to try to do arm twisting maybe come up to capitol hill. We know he likes those meetings. In terms of the daytoday slugging, pushing, the bolder uphill, i think mike pence will be a big player john brennan weve had this back and forth between intelligence officials and the trump side about what was or what was not briefed about last week in regards to that dosier regarding the russian influence in the election. How damaged is the relationship between Intelligence Community and the Incoming Administration its bad. I think unprecedentedly bad at the start of his administration. Look, at his News Conference this week president elect donald trump said the Intelligence Committee purposely put out this unverified swelled russia dosier, that one it wasnt true and two he never knew if they put it together, to put this out in public to under cut him and he compared it to tactics of nazi germany. The only hope is mr. Trump is putting in his own team, a new head of the cia, director of national intelligence. So that could change things we got mike pence, an exclusive interview with john brennan. There are a lot of security people preparing to sit down onset at fox news we thank you for joining us, well be back after this. Thank you. Well be back after this. At ikea, we believe everyone should be able to afford a well organized closet. Mama, my throat hurts. Youve got ten more minutes. Make room for what matters.
