>> nothing he does surprises me. two days he's on the message and the third day he's off the message. what he ought to be saying is this is a bunch of lies and stage setting and we need our chance to come back and tell the real story. this has been totally made up from the start to the finish. the democrats have 24 hours to make their case, and they take pieces of witness testimony. it's a well-screened -- lou: they are smart people. video repeats and live testimony. >> the truth of the matter is, they made no case. the whistleblower who started this whole thing was a traitor in the white house. and went to work for -- lou: the first whistleblower is not being identified publicly even though we do know his name. >> i have been told by two people who fired him. he's doing something totally unlawful. he's investigating the president of the united states. he's spying on the president of the united states. lou: john been man spied on the senate select committee and there was never a consequence. >> he went to work for schiff's committee. schiff lied about it. they put this together and started this teed tedious processlou: this president is gg not you acknowledgment that he should, the praise that he should with our global partners and with the world community of globalist elites even. so we have got graham having -- >> it's a club. they all love each other. lou: if they love each other they love everyone. >> very few warriors in the senate. i hope they are coming. lou: we won't hold our breath. bloomberg moving up in the polls. he's only 25 points behind bernie in the latest polls. what is he doing? all he does is talk about trump. >> that's his game plan. you have got $50 billion, that's the interest every day. the reality, he's not doing much to move himself forward. he's not going to be their nominee. but is he going to have an impact? i don't know. i have never seen anybody spend a billion dollars on a presidential campaign before. he better stay away from the people and keep his 5'3" frame behind the camera. lou: irrespective of whether he's 5'3" or 6'3", he's droll, isn't he. let's turn to the president raising $1 million, 220 donors. this is interesting. both sides of the spectrum, small donors, large donors. he's doing amazing. $21 million raised by 220 first-time donors. look at the small donors now. $79 million raised by small donors make up 37% of his total funding for this campaign. >> he has a diehard core of supporters. his supporters are hang in there tough and they will fight hard to the bitter end. lou: he's got new donors. the 220 new donors putting in $2 million. he's expanding his appeal. >> he's made a lot of people rich. and those who aren't you rich, the small donors, that's a show of support. lou: are you surprised by the positive reaction at davos. the business leaders and government leaders? >> he has done an extraordinary job. if you look at the accomplishments. they are monumental. they are unprecedented by any president in history. the reality is people had low expectations. he exceeded he expectations. only thing people don't like sometimes are the personality. but it's totally irrelevant. lou: ed, thanks so much. appreciate. ed rollins. major developments tonight in the deep state's efforts to overthrow the president through the fisa courts. the shadowy fisa court acknowledged that fbi's last two surveillance applications to spy on former campaign advisor carter page were not valid and there was quote are you ready for this, insufficient presented case to -- presented cas predicw that page was working as an the of a foreign power. the final warrant was signed in june 2017 by andrew mccabe and former deputy attorney general rod rosenstein. outrageously, there was no plan to bring any of those people who provided false information or per mid it to be put before the court to bring them to justice. carter page certainly has a substantial cause of action against the fbi and the doj. we'll be taking that up and more with the ranking member of the house judiciary committee, doug collins. president trump back from his extraordinary trip'world economic forum. he went to davos and he conquered. larry kudlow joins us after these quick words. stay with us. as a struggling actor, i need all the breaks that i can get. at liberty butchemel... cut. liberty mu... line?

lower taxes. massive rollback of costly regulations that damage business. energy independence, and successful trade deals and negotiations to stop unfair trading practices which has damaged everybody. workers, manufacturers, you a toes, farmers, technology people. simple program to create economic growth. lou: don't forget the importance of those tariffs which those same ceos at davos said would disrupt and destroy our markets and economy and prevent any possibility of growth and prosperity. they have been an important tool to restoring exactly those goals with this -- that this president said back in 2015. >> i agree. on this point, i agree. i think the president taught us how to negotiate. i agree. and i promoted it. but again he carries the day. during course of this election season, the facts will win out. that will be our card. lou: we live by that very, very same set of values. facts, facts and facts. that's why we get along so well. >> always. my pleasure to come back. thanks for having me. lou: we would like to hear your thoughts about larry and i having so much fun. share your comments. follow me on twitter @loudobbs. like me on facebook. pass for robert jeff refs after he monday our guests tomorrow evening. please join us for that and more. the quarantine of the cities in china by millions of citizens stop the spread of the coronavirus? the director of the national institute of allergy and infectious disease, dr. anthony fauci joins us next about what we should be thinking about and what the prospects are for controlling this outbreak. where's tommy? i thought he was with you? no jack! (sfx: piano plays "twinkle twinkle little star" tommy? (sfx: audience laughing) don't stop. keep playing. (sfx: pianist playing masterful duet) here we go here's the fun part [♪] lou: the coronavirus that originated in wuhan, china, has spread and it seems to be spreading just a little bit more every day. we now learn that at least 25 people have been killed, 850 confirmed cases now. that's about a 40% increase in fatalities almost each day since we became aware of the joust break, and a number of new cases northern ireland, mexico, scotland. and canada testing positive for the cyrus. travel restrictions like those imposed by the chinese government are the right course but delight inevitable. to sort through all of this and understand what proper screenings and education can do to help stop the straight ahead of this virus. joining us is dr. anthony fauci. these numbers are becoming frankly more impressive by the day. the rate -- i would assume this rate of fatality that we have seen so far will not keep moving up that quite the same percentage. i would expect it to decline intuitively. ways your expectation? >> it's a moving target. it's an evolving situation. that's why we are watching it carefully. what you are seeing is a real surge in recognition of cases. one of the critical issues that needs to be determined is we know for absolutely certain that it can be spread from human to human. the unknown is how sufficient you have sustained transmission from one person to another. if it adapts itself to be very efficient, then you have a more serious situation. it's not surprising you are seeing the surge? cases. what you are seeing when people travel outside of china. you have it in south korea, japan, tiled. those are d thailand. those are travel-related cases. when you get sustained cases outside of china and the wuhan district. that's the reason we are taking it serious will be and watching it carefully. lou: i know you are work at least one other country to develop a vaccine. reminiscent of the avian flu, there is an interval required to develop an effective vaccine. one of the estimates i have seen is 90 days. is that accurate? if not, in any case, what are your expectations? >> we mentioned and that's probably what you heard. we among others are developing a vaccine at the national institutes of health. from the time that we got the sequence to the time we actually can start testing tonight phase one trials for safety is about 3 months. so we expect to have it in people for phase one testing. but getting it in people for fizz one testing doesn't mean you have a vaccine you can utilize. it will take at least a year understood emergency circumstances to get a vaccine available. a vaccine though we need to work on it, is not the immediate answer. the immediate answer is good public health practices. remember with the sars outbreak? 2002. you had 775 dead. that outbreak was contained by classic public health practices. identification, isolation and quarantine where appropriate. that's what we need to do right now. that's what the chinese are trying to do in china by restricting travel in certain cities. lou: are you impressed by what the chinese -- i remember vividly the discussions and concerns in the country and the world. the chinese, are they doing what you think is correct? to me it's an impressive reaction on the part of a government that was not always -- did not always act responsibly in these outbreaks. >> it's like night and day. having lived through the sars experience, they were not very transparent at all, and they likely delayed the response we should have had. in this situation it's entirely different. they are being quite transparent and literally in real-time on an hourly and daily basis, they have given you what's going on in china. literally in real-time we are getting information about new cases, about deaths, about a description, the topography of the people, and the serious disease is in those with underlying conditions. we didn't know that early object with the outbreak with sars. so i'm pleased this is the situation now with their transparency. lou: we appreciate, doctor, as always. come back soon. dr. anthony fauci. congressman doug collins joins us next. stay with us. when you think of miami you think of,you know,rich,glamour but 5 miles away from the beach there's people who have never seen a beach. i was confused why somebody was in this situation especially in america. ♪music:oooh,oooh,oooh so when i started joshua's heart foundation it was a key thing to be able to engage youth in the foundation. to help them participate. ♪music:oooh,oooh,oooh i think passing on the torch and lighting a new flame in another person to do good is probably the point of the bigger missions i have. ♪music:aha,aha,aha so we are each making a bigger difference. ♪music:oooh,oooh,oooh that's it! just giving back and producing love for everybody. lou: among the stories we are covering, coronavirus deaths on the rise. the chinese government reporting 25 people have been killed about it virus. 830 cases have been confirmed. china substitute down at least three of its cities to try to stop the virus from spreading. two possible cases are being tested here in the united states. another trade victory for the trump administration. treasury secretary steven mnuchin says a trade deal with the u.k. could happen by the end of this year. the u.k. will officially exit the european union next friday. the radical left today continuing their farcical impeachment process against incidentally the president of the united states who just happens to be the most historic in this country's entire existence. here is a little of today's absurdity. >> there is some method to our madness. >> common sense would tell us this allegation against joe biden is false. >> the constitution is not a suicide pact. >> their goal is to weaken our country. >> this conduct is not america first, it's donald trump first. lou: biting, don't you think? joining us, congressman doug collins. ranking member of the house judiciary committee. congressman, great to have you with us. i have to say, this is reaching the point just to me it is labored, tedious, and i'm getting reports that senators are awaken together proceedings. i see senators to look dismayed, distressed, and about to fall asleep. >> i think you are seeing what we thought was going to happen. what i have been trying to say when the democrats come over and adam schiff and his bucks come over to make their case. it's the first time many of these senators will see what we in the house have been living with the last three or four months. this was a complete smear job against the president. the president did nothing wrong. now they are getting to site firsthand for themselves. i think they are shocked. and the language in the clip just showed. when they are defending joe biden, the impeachment team is defending joe biden. when you have rhetoric like jerry nadler saying a suicide pact. it means they know they lost. and they are desperate to smear the president. lou: in that desperation you would think they would do something else. but theykeep repeating the same language and roll the same videotape of the same inert witnesses called by the left to support their nonsense at the very beginning. it's tedious and to me inexplicable that they would expect anything other than an outright electoral disaster for the democratic party come november. >> that is what you would hope, lou. it's been going on for three years since the president was elected. this has been their time, they had the means, the motive and the tint to impeach this president. when you sort of -- i thought about this before -- when you have the collection of the clown car from iowa with no vision except for socialist america and government control, and their policies the people are rejecting, and they look at this president who is putting together trade deals, with the best economy in decades. they know they have no choice. so now all they are trying to do is put into people's minds that he did something wrong, which he did not, that he's not fit to be president. we can't beat him sow we'll smear him. that's what's happening right now. lou: the democrats must think their constituents and supporters are dumb as hell. that they can spoon feed them the lies, venomous nonsense and they will just swallow it. jay sekulow, the president's attorney today said he thinks trial witnesses are unlikely now. that was music to my ears. i can't imagine continuing this assault on the president by more and more lies. >> i agree. when they heard the democrats now for not just during the trial motions, now into the presentation. they said the same thing over and over again and it's not make headway. even though they are trying to get everything in. when the president gets to stand up and make the clear and concise defense of the president which the facts have never changed. there was no coercion of mr. zelensky. the senate will have the choice to say why would i want to extend this bad hand democrats are playing when i know the truth. let's get back to the work of the american people and start working for them. then let's move forward with the agenda of the people. let november election show the popularity of the president bean has done will vindicate the president. lou: congressman, as always, we are glad to have you with us. thanks for all you are doing for the president and the country. >> lou, thanks so much. good to be with you tonight. lou: hundreds of honduran migrants crossed into mexico head north on a highway they say to the united states. mexican national guardsmen are setting up along that same highway waiting to intercept the caravan and stop it. mexico has already bussed 700 migrants from the caravan back to honduras. the inspiring story of my fellow founder, mike lindell. he has a brand-new book and he joins me here next. there are approximately six and a half million people with developmental or intellectual differences in the united states. the unemployment rate for people with intellectual and development disabilities is 81 percent in the united states alone. which to me is an absolute tragedy. only 36 percent believe that people with intellectual differences can be leaders. i stock up nine kitchens and 22 conference room. i'm responsible, i can learn new things. i enjoy working with friends and i like to get a paycheck. join us. join us and we can change the hiring culture in our country. join us in delivering a million jobs for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and by doing that, we will develop a more inclusive, welcoming and kind society. ♪believe we're still worth the fight♪ ♪you'll see there's hope for this world tonight♪ ♪i believe, i believe ♪yeah ♪rock guitar can you help keep these iguys protected online??

>> absolutely. my book that came out now is going to help so many addicts. i say one of the things i say in the book is everybody is affected by addiction no matter how many forks we eat with. what i mean is it's note just what you think an addict in the street. i was a functioning addict. with my pillow. that was just a platform that god gave me for a much bigger purpose, and where i am coming out now, i have the lindell recovery network coming out. i was there when the president signed the opiate bill. all the things he's doing to wipe out addiction and help addicts across the country. it's one of the biggest things we face. i believe addiction is an opportunity for one of the biggest revivals this country has ever had. lou: let's start with a large one for you. how did you move from a functioning addict to aimmensely successful entrepreneur and businessman who is no longer an addict? >> the grace of god. i owe it all to god. i did quit everything. january 16, 2009 overnight where god freed me of the desire. but there were so many things where seeds were planted where i did a full surrender to jesus christ in 2017. but the faith-based treatment centers that work, these are the things that work. i don't believe addiction is a disease. the secular centers prey on addicts. you may this much to go to treatment and you get out and you don't have the wounds addressed. i think addiction comes from childhood. and course. veterans that get traumatized. this is where dime down we needs the wounds addressed. noise harder worker than an addict. when an addict gets their heart restored, they are the best workers you can get. addiction is hard work. people ask me all the time, mike, you work so hard. >> i say i love what i'm doing, addiction is hard work. >> it's oh destructive. the individual, the family. all the human potential that is lost. we are running out of time. i would like you to come back and week talk more about this. let's close on a happy note. what do you think of the health of this economy, the health of your business, and how do you feel about how great america is right now? >> i will tell you what. i was a crack addict. when i came out of addiction, we had a president giving money to evil empires. my friends were unemployed and people losing their house. i meet president trump. i walked out of his office and i said he's going to be the greatest president ever. all my friends are employed. everybody is getting higher wages. consumer confidence is the highest ever. that means entrepreneurs can take chances on businesses and inventions and they have a safety net to falling back to. the highest stock market. i tell mire friends, see -- i tell my friends, see, i told you. it will be an amazing five years coming up because there will be more and more done. lou: from your lips to god's ears. ears. thanks so much. my twin brother jacob has an autism spectrum disorder i remember one moment after being at school all day and i remember him getting into the car just balling... and saying: "mom, i have no friends" "why don't i have any friends?" it broke my heart. ♪brother let me be your shelter♪ ♪never leave you all alone that was the moment when i realized that i needed to do something about this. i needed to make a difference in his life. go! and i knew that if i could help him find a friend, i could help teach other people that including people with differences is the right thing to do. ♪bring it home ♪brother let me be your shelter♪ that was the inspiration behind my non-profit "score a friend" educating people to include the people with differences is so important because when jacob's included he feels like he can succeed in life and he feels like he actually has a purpose. ♪..home ♪ dear humans, this is an adoption campaign, but, it's not for me or mr. buttons or frank over there, it's for you humans. this is a call to humans to adopt our movement to adopt our cause. this is not just about saving one of us, it is about saving all of us. nearly 4,100 lives every single day. it's about support for every one of us four and sometimes not four legged best friends waiting to meet a best friend of our own, with best friends animal society leading the charge. shelter by shelter, city by city, we can make this entire country no kill. join us. together we can save them all. ♪ [♪] lou: president trump tonight having some fun on twitter. he just retweeted a photo of a plow truck. let me show you how high-tech we are. trump 2020 it says on the snow plow. the motto is pushing snowflakes aside. trump writing that's a real fan. thank you. and thank you, mr. president for retweeting it. we have done the same thing here. join us tomorrow. investigative reporter john solomon, tony sayegh lauren: it is 5:00 a.m. here are your top stories at this hour. the u.s. is ready to take action against the deadl deadly corona. is the world on the brink of an international health crisis?
