brand new hour, glad you're here with us, i'm victor blackwell. >> and i'm alisyn camerota. we begin with what president biden is calling good news in the pandemic. pfizer says its early lab data showed a booster shot of its vaccine can neutralize the omicron variant which has now been detected in 21 states. the president's chief medical adviser says he's encouraged by this booster news. >> when you're entering into an arena of a new variant with very many unknown aspects about it, you always have a degree of anxiety about how it's going to turn out. so the news we got last night and this morning about the effective boosters does make me breathe a little bit better. >> pfizer also says its lab results found two shots did not provide specific protection against omicron. efficacy matches the findings of a small study of a dozen people in south africa. let's bring in dr. william schaffner of the division of infectious diseases at vanderbilt university medical center, and an adviser to the cdc. welcome back. let's start here with the definition of fully vaccinated. you advise the cdc, we have heard from pfizer that the protection that defined fully vaccinated against the original strain, the two shots, you need three shots against omicron. is it time for the cdc to redefine fully vaccinated? >> well, victor, good to be with you, and i think the short answer to your question is not yet. let's not make things more confusing than they are. we're still trying to vaccinate people who are unvaccinated, get those boosters out as you have suggested and vaccinate children. i think that going from the hard science, which was so encouraging, i'm so glad to hear it, that information from pfizer to public policy and redefining what's vaccinated. that's a large leap. let's not make things more complicated than they are at the present time, but encourage, absolutely, everybody to get their booster. >> dr. schaffner, far be it from me to challenge your sage medical advice, isn't it less confusing, everybody three shots, this is a three-dose regimen. >> alisyn, i would love to tell everybody that. i'm telling them since this morning, absolutely. and however, changing the requirements of what fully vaccinated means, i think has all kinds of downstream effects for all kinds of institutions in the country. i don't think we're quite there yet, and remember, there's still talk of having an omicron booster, perhaps at the beginning of next year, sometime in march. that would confuse things even more. let's keep things as simple as possible, and absolutely encourage everybody to get their booster. >> you mentioned getting children vaccinated. what does this new revelation from pfizer mean for the timing of the doses for vaccinating children, for the dosages themselves? >> well, i think, victor, the vaccines are -- have an emergency use authorization for children 5 and up, and beyond that, for everybody age 18 and over now, and so i think that the intervals are set because they were studied in the trials. we know that they're safe and effective. they're working. we need to stick with that. let's not change anything. we know these vaccines are safe and effective. we need to get the children in. that'ses issue. let's not tinker with the intervals at the moment. >> when do you think that teenagers, let's say, will be able to get boosted in this country? >> well, a teenager who's received two doses needs to wait six months before they get their booster. and that's currently the interval that's recommended and certainly the interval that i would suggest we follow going forward. it's out there. it's really very clear, let's all do that. >> dr. william schaffner, thank you. >> thank you. okay. now to this. the so-called great resignation continues with an estimated 4.2 million u.s. workers quitting their jobs in october. >> cnn business reporter matt egan is with us now. so, i mean, this has been going on now for, what, three months, 4 million per month plus resignations, what's this mean? >> in many ways, it's sort of like a lot of workers are free agents, kind of like in baseball. if you imagine you had a great season in baseball, maybe you just won the world series, you're realizing that maybe re-signing with the home team is not the best move for your finances, maybe there's a big city team that can pay you more. a lot of workers realize they have all the leverage right now. there's a near record job openings in the united states, the latest numbers show 11 million job openings in october, shy of the record 11.1 million in july. hotel ep sharply, a million just in manufacturing, and that's why people were quitting. we saw this near record 4.2 million people quit their jobs. the previous record had just been set the month before at 4 h4.4 million. companies are desperate to hire, they have to pay up to keep the workers they have, and attract new talent. a new report came out showing that next year companies are expected to raise pay by 4%. that's the biggest jump since 2008. i think that all of this really shows how strong the jobs narcotic is. i mean, the unemployment rate is down, wages are up, and people feel so good about their prospects to get a better job that they're quitting at near record paces. one other point, though, is that this is contributing to inflation because companies are facing much higher labor costs, and they are passing along some of those expenses to consumers. >> what's happening with gas prices? >> gas prices are ticking lower. the national average is down to $3.34 a gallon. that's not cheap but it is a seven-week low. i think the better news is that there's some forecasts out there calling for a more considerable drop in gas prices. the energy department's forecasting arm, they're saying $3.01 in january will be the average, and next year, $2.88. that is a considerable drop from what we saw recently. citi group put out this report saying there's going to be a radical drop in energy prices. i think the bad news is sort of the why. one factor there is supply. they think that the u.s. and opec will be pumping more oil. okay. but the other point is they're concerned about demand, specifically what the omicron variant is going to do to the economy and to the travel industry, so that's something we have to keep an eye on. of course these are just forecasts and i think at the end of the day, so much depends, whether it's the jobs market or energy prices or inflation, so much depends on omicron, and what happens next in the pandemic. >> all right. matt egan, thank you. >> thanks, guys. now to capitol hill, the january 6th committee says it is moving forward to hold mark meadows in contempt of congress after he ducked a scheduled deposition today. before he stopped cooperating, meadows turned over key information according to the committee. >> that includes a november 7th, 2020, e-mail, discussing the appointment of alternative slates of electors. if you don't like what the first ones say, just find new ones. a january 5th e-mail regarding a 38-page power point briefing entitled election fraud, foreign interference and options for january 6th. and a january 5th e-mail about having the national guard on stand by. here to discuss is cnn legal analyst and form federal prosecutor jennifer roberts. this is fascinating, just knowing that first mark meadows handed over thousands of these pages which i assume will be so helpful to the committee but i guess i'm confused about -- i understand why he stopped wanting to cooperate because i think that there's some reporting that president trump has gotten angry but the fact that he cooperated so much to begin with, do they still need him or are all of these documents basically gold for them is this. >> well, i think it's a little of both, alisyn. the documents are gold but he withheld thousands and thousands of other documents and thousands of text messages. if these are so important to what the committee is doing, think about the ones that he withheld are. those are going to be double gold or platinum or however you want to call it. this is good but he changed his mind probably because he doesn't want to be held in criminal contempt. he doesn't want to be in civil contempt. he wanted to kind of skate that line and now he has gone the other way with new counsel so we'll see how this part plays out. >> let's talk about that moving forward on the criminal referral or the vote, at least, first in the house. steve bannon is a clear case. he did not engage or cooperate at all. mark meadows handed over thousands of pages, said that he was willing to answer questions. written answers as well. does that weaken potentially a case against him for -- by the doj for not complying? >> it does. it's one of the things that does. also kind in mind that mark meadows, unlike steve bannon was an employee of the executive branch and a close adviser of the president, so that makes it a stronger case for privilege as well. the fact that he is now stone walling them. he did initially cooperate, not only is he not turning anything over. he won't even show up to parse through the documents that he admitted when he turned them over were not privileged so the case isn't a weak one for holding him in criminal contempt. i'm just concerned that given the issue of his, you know, being an executive branch employee coupled with the fact that the initially cooperated, it's a more challenging case for sure for the department of justice. >> congressman adam schiff has said that it appears that some of the potential witnesses, i assume the bannons and roger stones of the world appear to be coordinating behind the scenes. is there anything wrong with that? >> no, not really. i mean, defendants are allowed to coordinate. they in fact often will come up with joint defense agreements so that they can talk without worrying about waiving attorney/client privilege. it goes to their good faith. if they're going to assert privileges like executive privilege or the attorney/client privilege or the 5th amendment invocation of rights it has to be sincere and in good faith. depending on what they're saying together, evidence as they're coordinating to stone wall as a team goes to that good faith. it matters in that sense. >> jennifer rogers, thank you for helping us understand it all. >> thanks. congresswoman lauren boebert is blazing into another controversy. this time involving her children. and she's just, i guess, mimicking another controversial christmas photo. and right now, instagram ceo is answering questions from lawmakers defending the app's safety record when it comes to its team users. we'll have an update. is the planning effect. this is how it feels t to hae a dedicated fidelity advisor looking at your full financial picture. this is what it's like to have a comprehensive wealth plan with tax-smart investing strategies designed to help you keep more of what you earn. and set aside more for things like healthcare, or whatever comes down the road. this is "the planning effect" from fidelity. healthier is seeing a healthcae pro whenever you may need one. doctor: the fever should break... or...trying to. ♪ ♪ this is what healthier looks like ♪ i've spent centuries evolving with the world. that's the nature of being the economy. observing investors choose assets to balance risk and reward. with one element securing portfolios, time after time. gold. agile and liquid. a proven protector. an ever-evolving enabler of bold decisions. an asset more relevant than ever before. gold. your strategic advantage. i just wish more people knew how easy it was to get health coverage. i'm only paying $52 a month for there are quality plans for even less. my job doesn't offer health insurance, but with the new law, i found an affordable plan and only pay $47 a month. actually, a friend of mine recommended healthcare.gov and now we're paying less than $60 a month for coverage. i was skeptical at first, but it is real. i'm covered with no monthly payment. new law. lower prices. more people qualify. at healthcare.gov are you tired of clean clothes that just don't smell clean?

(burke) seventeen-car garage you got there? ♪we are farmers♪ ♪bum-pa-dum, bum-bum-bum-bum♪ congresswoman lauren boebert is courting more controversy. the colorado republican tweeted this picture last night showing her four boys holding semiautomatic guns. you'll remember that one of her congress colleagues thomas massey made headlines last week with a similar holiday photo of his family. >> house democrats were already calling for boebert to be disciplined for her repeated is islam phobic comments about ilhan omar. i got to read some tweets because there's a back and forth that's relevant here. congressman alexandria oc ocasio-cortez re-tweeted that photo. tell me where christ said use the commemoration of my birth, all the -- erasing christmas and its meaning when they're doing fine all on their own. and then boebert replied with aoc uses her position as a congresswoman to attack my boys with their christmas presents. first, i don't know if it's a good idea for boebert to go online here and admit that her 8-year-old who's not tall enough to ride space mountain now has a semiautom semiautomatic rifle if those guns are real. this plays right into what lauren boebert wants. this aoc back and forth seems like the strategy. it's the point of putting the picture up in the first place. >> this is an attempt to shift the conversation on to terms that we know that the congresswoman boebert will be more comfortable with. they want to have that conversation about guns. they want to move this to the culture war about christmas and its meaning, and wants to imply that representative o attacked r children. which the tweet did not do. what the congresswoman said about ilhan omar was nativist, islam phobic, and that is what caused the republican congresswoman to apologize herself. she already apologized for the action she took initially. this is now an attempt to switch the conversation from that but we know that these are republicans who rather have the turf be on guns, be on christmas, be on that culture war than the identity politics that they themselves are playing and that islamophobia, congresswoman omar had to experience. >> talk about the war on christmas, is there any other better exhibit a than brandishing semiautomatic weapons. where in the bible does it say brandish your weapons in honor of christ's birthday, that's basically what alexandria o ocasio-cortez was saying but a lot of people are saying. what massey has done and boebert, it's so far from the spirit of christ. i don't know when they last read their bible is, but that's one war on christmas they're turning into their bastardized version of it, but it's also days after a school shooting, yet another school shooting, how do we think the families in michigan feel about this? how do we think all of the traumatized students, all of the traumatized deputies who had to see the after math of that. beyond any culture war, just the incredible insensitivity is really striking. >> it shows the narrow focus that congresswoman boebert is thinking about. only thinking about how to switch the conversation back to terms that she is more comfortable and not talking about the larger implication, that larger feeling that the fact that the country is coming days off of this shooting. i can't speak to how the victims in michigan or other places would feel, folks who have experienced gun violence about that photo but i can say as the son of a pastor who spent a lot of chris ntmases and christmas eves listening to the nativity story, i have never heard the christmas story be linked with explicit political acts like this, and the need for guns and weapons. this is their own version of christmas, and their own version of a story that just suits their political interests. >> speaking of political interests, i want everyone to listen to what representative dan crenshaw said recently about a wing of his party. >> two types of members of congress, there's performance artists and there's legislators, now, the performance artists are the ones who get all the attention, the ones you think are more conservative because they know how to say slogans real well. the drifters in our midst know that the quickest way to your heart is to convince you that fellow conservatives betrayed them. >> speaking there at that event, matt gaetz, others, liz cheney, a conservative republican, her home state doesn't even consider her a republican anymore. it really is the redefining of what it means to be a conservative. >> absolutely, and crenshaw is making an interesting point in trying to refocus the energy, saying you should look at people who are legislating your interesting, kind of that mantra of getting back to kind of core conservative values, the problem for him is this is a party that's been overtaken by donald trump who is the biggest example of someone who used slogans, and language and, you know, contradictory conservative stances to find his way into popularity of the republican party, the congressman there is trying to fight a war that has already taken place. this is donald trump's party, and the quickest thing republicans can do in congress or to raise their national profile to fund raise on that grass roots level is to align themselves with him, and that is totally separate from legislation, that's totally separate from policy making. what's most important is the trumpy rhetoric, aligning with him and their cultural grievances, even more so than actually enacting policies. they're going to run on the words, whether congressman crenshaw likes it or not. >> astead herndon, thank you. >> thank you. >> president biden is in kansas city, missouri, promoting his infrastructure law. a few minutes ago, he toured a body shop for mass transit vehicle at the kansas city area transportation authority. he's going to deliver some remarks soon. and the white house has ruled out new branding for it called building a better america. it includes a new web site to showcase how the $1.2 trillion law is being used already in communities. the president and top democrats are hoping americans will see ma major benefits from this infrastructure spending ahead of next year's midterm elections. there was emotional testimony in the kim porter trial, she's the former police officer who says she mistook her handgun for a taser when she shot and killed daunte wright. the victim's mother just took the stand and recounted her final conversation with her son. l bull-rider i'm used to taking chances. but when it comes to my insurance i don't. >> i went under the yellow tape. i use liberty mutual, they customize your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. wooo, yeaa, woooooo and, by switching you could even save 665 dollars. hey tex, can someone else get a turn?

>> lawmakers are fed up with facebook, meta instagram, he makes a point, there are other platforms are big issues like tiktok, but facebook, instagram, meta should get their own house in order first. one question i thought was pertinent came from senator richard blumenthal, and he talked about even when parents or people find really troubling stuff on the platform, maybe promoting eating disorders or things like that to their children, even when they report it, instagram seems to do nothing about it, have a listen. >> shouldn't children and parents have the right to report dangerous material and abuse and get a response, get some action? because we've heard harrowing stories from parents who tried to report and have heard no response. my office made a report and got no response until cnn made report to press relations. shouldn't there be an obligation that instagram will respond? >> senator, yes. i believe we try and respond to all reports, and if we ever failed to do so, that is a mistake that we should correct. >> and what blumenthal is referring to there is a few weeks ago, his office set up an account as a 13-year-old girl on instagram, followed a few accounts that were talking about eating disorders. quickly instagram's algorithms began recommending to that 13-year-old girl that you should follow more and more eating disorder accounts. we replicated that experience here, we got the same results. some of these accounts were reported to instagram. they did nothing about it. it wasn't until we pick up the phone to the company and say, hey, what about these accounts, instagram says, oh, yeah, they're against our rules. we don't now accounts. they do this thing we don't allow accounts that promote eating disorders, it's against our rules but they do allow it because this stuff is so easy to find. >> it's demonstrably false what they're saying. >> any more likely than there's going to be legislation than what we saw from haugen several months ago. >> the hearing today, marsha black burn and blumenthal, it does seem like a rare area of bipartisanship in congress, but whether they actually step up to the plate and legislate to regulate, that remains to be seen. >> donie o'sullivan, thank you. >> thank you. let's discuss this with clinical psychologist, lisa stroman, also the author of digital distress, growing up online. always great to see you. we have talked about this before, just yesterday in some convenient timing, instagram announced some new safety features. i'll read them to you. they're going to have new take a break alerts. they're going to take a stricter approach to what content they recommend to teenagers, maybe not, for instance, anorexia content. they're also going to allow people to bulk delete photos, videos, likes, and comments and create an educational hub for parents. will this solve the problem? >> no. is the quick answer to that, i think this is just a play book that you can look back in history on a time line, and see that they've done every time that they've gotten into hot water. they're contrite. they throw up a few features and accommodations that they think the senate will be happy with, and then they move about as business as usual, pushing forward the things they need to do to get their next consumer group which is kids. >> what is it that you would like to see, lisa? >> you know, i think as a parent myself with a 13 and 14-year-old, and someone who's been talking about this for 15 years, i think what we need to do is really seriously look at whether or not the tech industry has any sort of ability to be a part of the conversation in terms of what regulation is. if you look at from a legislative perspective, there's over2,000 bills that are typically in one year presented for child exploitation or online internet safety for children, and it is these individual siloed actions of the legislators that are trying to do well, and you can see that in the hearing today, but we have to bring them all together. we have to come together and find experts like myself who spend hours with families that have children that have committed suicide, that have been trafficked online, children that look like our children online that we are busy parents that are working, that are just generally out there on the internet, and we have to recognize that unless we get some true experts and people that are in the field talking about how this happens, outside of someone who has a profit line and a margin that they're looking for to make those decisions, it's not going to change. >> lisa, that's such a good point because obviously these social media companies have proven they can't police themselves. okay, so one of the things that he's trying to say is we're saying we need regulation. we have always said we need regulation. you heard donie, it's a bipartisan desire, why can't congress do some sort of big sweeping legislation that would curtail some of this? >> it's a great question. ada unless you get it at the level of the user and say the device is age restricted it's going to be really hard to go after it company by company. we can legislate. we can put laws in place, but the reality is those laws have to also then be enforced. so if you put a car out, for instance, on to the road, and it has a seat belt in it, it's up to the law enforcement officer to pull somebody over if they don't have their seat belt on. what they're doing and what i think is a brilliant move is they're saying we'll give you the tools but it's up to the parents really, and f it's goin on the parents to enforce those tools we're handing over to you, causing devices in the family, a break down with teens and parents. it's pushing them further online back into the hands of big tech, so it's a brilliant move, i think, long-term for them to do it that way. but that's why i think we have to take it back, and look at it and say this can't be in our hands, it's not because they don't also have children who want to be safe online, it's because you're asking them to go against the business interests of your own. we're going to have to change the way we address this online, and we're going to have to create a body in my opinion that enforces these laws, and that's all that they do, and it's going to have to be at a much higher level and much more oversight to protect our minors online. >> lisa stroman, thank you so much for being with us. >> thanks, lisa. >> absolutely. new york city is on the brink of giving some voting rights to non-citizens. how's that going to work?
