review of the hacked server. they relied on a security firm for that information. the statement reads in part the dnc had several meetings with representatives of the fbi cyber division and field office but f.b.i. never requested access to the dnc computer servers. in a tweet mr. trump questioned how and why they re so sure about the attacking if they didn t examine the computer servers. what s going on? the white house yesterday had no answers. i can speak to the investigative methods that were used by the f.b.i. and the wisdom of the approach they pursued. i can t i would refer you to them for comment on that. it s not unaushl to rely on a highly reputable firm for forensic analysis. this is not a run of the mill investigation. we ll get with the f.b.i. this morning to see if they have the same version of events as the dnc, bill. bill: when you get it, bring
what? mexico will pay for the wall. bill: he is insisting our neighbor to the south will foot the bill. will it happen? what is his plan as we understand it today. martha: and vice president joe biden calling out the president-elect for what he considers to be immature behavior. will mr. trump turn or become more presidential once he is in office or should he stick with what is working for him so far?
they start running again for the next office. they have a window. we ll cover for those 100 days exactly what it means to try to get done what they want to get done and they ll have a lot of opposition. bill: they made a fantastic decision. congratulations. don t go far. some of those changes mean some changes around here in the morning too, here, right? shannon bream will be here for martha during that time. we want to welcome shannon today and all down in d.c. for the inauguration. we ll host coverage across from the white house and martha will join brett on the national mall for the fox coverage. a big and important time for the country and a big important time here at the fox news channel and a big and important time for viewers at home. we think we ve worked this out in a really good way. congratulations again. martha: i will miss being here with you for the next three months. i love shannon bream. you ll have a great time together. don t get too cozy. it is only 100 days. we
american public. i think for donald trump not only did the twitter work for the campaign but it is where he feels comfortable and able to make announcements, the talk about the work he is doing every single day. i think that it s a transparent effort by the president to ensure that the american public hear directly from him. bill: i understand every point you made there. and juan, i think it s a remarkable thing to see how he drives the news cycle every morning. is there a down side to this? or is the idea about going around the media, communicating directly to tens of millions of people, is that actually a modern way of saying this is the way we are going to be the most effective with our message? it s effective. there is no argument it was effective during the campaign and as you point out it controls the news cycle. it has the media chasing donald trump at every moment. just this week wall street journal had a story about his
nation in the world. so i think it s not exactly like they think trump will be good for them but they were so angry at obama and they were so disgusted with clinton that i think they regard this as a better outcome for a rational relationship. bill: did you have a problem with that hearing yesterday in public or something that should have been kept in private or something that could have been moved until after the inauguration? what did you think of that? i think i think this whole thing is a total mess and people should be embarrassed about it. it s a sign of how far our understanding of intelligence operations has deklaid. we used to run intelligence operations that were truly secret and used to have operations in world war ii where only eight members of congress knew about it. i was one of the eight people when i was speaker. now the whole thing is a circus. out in public, it s all part of wikileaks and all part of whatever the latest news media thing is. as i said there ought
