Walk across the border and you get health care. If youre born here, maybe not. My conclusion this friday morning is that the democrats are badly divided and are now led by unelectable socialists. Why dont we get to the market. Its going up again this morning, triple digit gain maybe for the dow, pretty close to it. Modest gain for the s p and the nasdaq as well. The dow, pretty close to alltime highs. The president meets chinas leader tomorrow. Huge stakes for both sides. The market seems to be saying because its going up that there will at least be a smile and a handshake. Well see. Wait until you see the mayor of new york city praise che guevarra. What will apple do without the designer of the iphone . Varney company is about to begin. It will be a very exciting day, im sure, for a lot of people, including the world. It will be an exciting day. A lot of people are talking about it. Its very interesting. Its going to come out hopefully well for both countries and ultimately it will wo

The dow crossed 24 how for the first time yesterday, but for the month the dow was up 3. 83 the s p up 2. 1 and the knanasdaq up 2. 17 . Telecoms led the way for the month. Check out the u. S. Futures those gains yesterday were something to see the dow Jones Crossing 24,000 for the first time the s p 500 was up by 0. 8 yesterday. All of these things we have been watching closely you are seeing a pull back this morning. Maybe related to what were seeing in europe the declines there are more significant. Declines in europe are because of the tax deal. You think absolutely. After we got so close last night. Its not just the declines in europe, europe is not matching 350 points of gains that we had here yesterday but the 350 points, that was at 4 00, all of this stuff they were supposed to vote yesterday. Im surprised theres not a bigger decline this morning based on the snags in the tax bill it was supposed to happen if we knew it would happen today, there would be further gains, now its

The air is too dry. You know moisture to deliver the snowfall totals. That is it what the great lakes do. I will say, david, next week, january 3rd or fourth, middle of next week. We could get gulf and atlantic moisture involved in the arctic up break, big cities on east coast have to watch for a potential big snowstorm. That is a few d
Cruz is already agreeing, we are the fbi to drop the ball on told, to plead guilty in this, some of the signs given exchange for escaping the Death Penalty where that is going. So much more happening after multiple occasions, how much this. Trouble that could telegraph. The president said maybe the distraction of the russian probe got in the way of the fbi doing what it should be doing. Is that fair . Is that remotely right . Lets go to former Justice Department official robert driscoll. That has come up quite a bit, robert, the fbi with the obsession to the Russian Investigation dates back to 2014 or at least the first hints of it, that that got in the way of its normal duties. Is that true . No. I mean, i think that is kind of an unfair criticism because people are assigned to different tasks and people investigating public corruption wouldnt be the ones not like there would be more manpower responding to this complaint or this notice down in arkansas about the Florida Shooter if the
