will: i hit the hills in central park. the metal disk reminds me of christmas vacation will chevy chase sprays it with like spam experimental and goes flying. pete: fantastic. the snow is not melting yet. it's freezing cold here. hope you are warm wherever you are and thank you for joining us on this december 19th. are are stick with us all four hours. why not? >> we begin with a fox news alert. president trump sign as two day spending bill to ainvestigator shutdown as congress rushes to negotiate a covid-19 relief deal. it comes as moderna's vaccine is cleared for emergency use with vac anyone nations set to start as soon as monday. lucas tomlinson is live in washington with more. good morning. >> good morning, guys. it wouldn't be christmas without political gridlock in the nation's capitol. the president signing that two day spending bill. the covid relief. needs to do more to help the working class. >> where we build out the banks to such a tune that now they have mope left over. now we are going to take money back because we spent so much on wall street and the banks in the first part of this year. that's right. wall street is doing great. big tech, they are doing great. the big multinational corporations, fantastic. working people, working people are living in their cars. >> now the good news, last nit the fda granting emergency approval for a second weapon against the pandemic. mow determine nagan shipping doses across the country beginning this weekend. the goal is to have 20 million americans vaccinated in the coming days, including the elderly who account for 39% of all covid deaths. the moderna vaccine can be stored in freezers temperatures similar to what you have in kitchen. big help to people in rural america because it doesn't require the ultra cold storage the pfizer vaccine needs. joe biden and his wife are expected to receive the vaccine as early as monday. will: guys, i fear the united states is moving sadly, dangerously towards a society where you are primarily defined by your skin color. let me point to you two articles this week when it comes to the distribution of the vaccine that lucas was just talking about. first, this is from the "new york times." the elderly vs. the essential workers. who should get the corona vaccine ferris. why are they talking about essential workers. covid-19 is devastating communities of color. can vaccines color racial iniquity. what we are talking about is many in the medical community, including cdc panels, medical experts, advising the cdc saying that you should prioritize essential workers over the elderly, not because they are on the front lines but because they're disproportionately represented by communities of color. in other words, we should prioritize people who receive the vaccine according to their skin color. this is from "the washington post. in california, expert are devising ways communities of color disproportionately are benefited from vaccine distribution. governor gavin newsom vowed because of the income they have felt during the pandemic andrew cuomo wept as far as to threaten to sue the will will trump administration over national distribution plan which he said failed black and brown communities that were first on the list of who died. so what are we doing, jedediah? these are issues that are used astro january horses to make race the primary factor now in who gets the vaccine. jedediah: yeah, and also that quote that talks about disproportionately those who have been affected. we all know that age was one of the main factors, right? when we talked about this disease and we talked about the horrors that it was inflicting on nursing homes, on people on certain age bracket. it it was one of the things where you could look to see if you were in the 40 to 50 age bracket you were likely to have this amount of illness and fatality rate was. this i think it's going to be challenging. i understand the perspective if they're looking to communities that have been, you know, localities where there have been high poverty rates where, you know, the healthcare facilities are not up to par, things of that nature, take race aside, if they are looking into those aspects and saying well these people are deproportionately affected live in these areas. i understand that, to solely make it an issue based on race is incredibly problem that the particular. they need to look at the population and who is most at risk, obviously. and proceed. and i don't really care what the color of someone's skip be is. i don't really care what their gender is i care about protecting the most vulnerable, whoever that may be. pete: yeah. leave it up to the left to mess up the easiest thing to do which if you are a front line healthcare worker you should get the vaccine. if you are in a long-term care facility you should get the vaccine. then they throw in all this other junk, superficial thing that will end up dividing us because of the lunancy of it. here we are talking about it when it is as straightforward go down the list of who needs it most, not hard to figure out and just administer it. someone who provided that kind of perspective i have ventricl >> get to the heart of the matter using race as a basis for distributing a public good in this country is the antithesis of what america is supposed to be about. i think it sets a dangerous precedent. think about the other way we hope all will go well and i fully suspect that it is. this is a powder keg waiting to explode if we say go to minority communities first and god forbid something even appears to go wrong. this could be one of the most dangerous mistakes of our century if we use the moment to racialize the distribution of a public good. pete: he's exactly right. to go back to the beginning of what lucas tomlinson said. quite interesting to see someone like josh hawley out of missouri team up with bernie sanders. you see that in the unique moments with the government has been so draconian the only option is to pay people. if you are going to shut them down, you have to pay them as a result of that we will seal where these negotiations go over the next two days whether or not they get a deal after, you know, we have had months and month and months. what's two more days? that's capitol hill for you. speaking of capitol hill, much has been made at the very least here at the fox news channel and at places willing to cover it about eric swalwell and his cohorting with fang fang nancy pelosi and many others have been made aware of it. he was made aware of it at the time. yet he still got a seat on the intel committee junior congressman with no experience on foreign affairs matters. the leadership of the house, kevin mccarthy, nancy pelosi and others were finally briefed yesterday by the fbi about this chinese spy. and her relationship with eric swalwell. here's leader mccarthy as he came out of the briefing from the fbi about what he learned. this is on "the story" yesterday. >> i can tell you this. what i learned today and anyone who was in that room with me would never allow swalwell to be on the intel committee or to continue to be on it. i don't know if the briefing before for leader, if they have the same information they have today. but if that was the case, he should not be serving. will: he should not be serving. he has accusations and it ties to adversarial regime. here we are he still sits on the house intel committee, jedediah. jedediah: yeah, why was he on there to begin with? the whole thing seems a little bit odd to me as to why, you know, you talked about, you mentioned, pete, that he didn't really have the qualifications or the experience to be there. so it seems like an odd position for him to be in to begin with to be on there, have this erupt, and really have so much silence on the part of democrat on it. i mean, it's stunning to see the silence. continuingly people in high positions of leadership, nancy pelosi and whatnot. this is a pretty astonishing development for someone who sits on that intel committee and dealing with matter of national security. i mean, it's pretty outstoppedding what people choose to ignore in the name of supporting their own political party. another thing that we have been talking about and eager to see how the biden administration will act with respect to the press. you know joe biden during the campaign he was kind of a loaf. he stepped back. you know, i don't need to take a lot of questions. and i don't need to do a lot of that stuff. people saying maybe it will be different if he actually wins maybe he will come out front and center and willing to answer these questions. that's not what happened recently in a presser. in fact, reporters, he only answered a few questions. he left a lot of news outlets out and reporters had no choice but to go into a zoom chat and to try to beg, really, the biden officials to answer some of their questions. take a look at some of these examples, sam stein from the daily beast hey, guys, a ton of folks ask questions since this is being done once a week go longer or hold more frequent briefings? then you had vicki miller from the associated press, any chance you can take a few more questions? there are a lot of folks here with yes, sir. andrew feinberg, white house reporter? is there a point be to say we want to ask questions if you only call on the same small group every week? they will have to do something about this. i mean, i understand the strategy during the campaign, he felt he didn't need to be out there front and center. but people have questions. one of those questions is going to involve hunter biden who is now under active investigation. and he's going to need to be transparent on these issues or you are gonna see what would be considered potential allies of a biden administration in terms of it the media come out and say enough is enough. they, too, want their questions answered, pete. pete: i hope you are right that eventually the press would turn on the idea that joe biden can live in a bubble. but, of course, they didn't during the campaign. and a few comments in a zoom chat doesn't really rise to the level of an actual uprising. maybe eventually it would. but you have got this call. there were five reporter that were called on. predetermined in advance, of course no questions about hunter biden. he did answer a question about hunter biden recently though to stephen colbert, late night host. the question was how does it make you feel? we do "fox & friends" all the time. sometimes you have like a family on or something and you ask them how does that make you feel because it's the right kind of segment for that you don't ask in a hard-hitting interview how does it make you feel that your adult son has compromised your entire administration? i love my son. what a great example we all love our son. there will be no serious examination. maybe they will open up to a few more questions but the press is on the side of joe biden and so we should expect nothing less. will: the biden transition team can be forgiven for assuming they don't have to answer questions. they didn't during the campaign. they are probably quite surprised that now people want to ask questions of them. i didn't think this was the nature of our relationship, they would be thinking. ari fleischer part of the bush administration whop dered aloud on twitter how in the world is the biden press allowed to get away with a once a week briefing. i thought they were quote returning to norms. i briefed daily during the bush transition so did the trump staff. the media need to raise hell, assuming they remember how to do that to d's. will: ds. all right. jedediah will. jedediah: need like an apostrophe. i was with you. i was like glad he has got that read. cover a lot more in the next few hours. right now turn to some headlines, a judge strikes down a lawsuit in georgia that would have isolated ballots of voters who just moved to the state. the g.o.p. taking the matter to court arguing new voter registrations reveal hundred of applications for people who voted in other states during the november election. nearly 1.1 million people have already cast a ballot in the state's twin senate runoff election. the outcome will determine which party hold the majority. and new york city's ban on the use of new york city bathrooms is quietly reversed less than 24 hours after it's it posted. new city guidance saying customers may not enter the inside of the establishment for any reason. but friday morning it was changed saying customers may enter the inside of the establishment to use the bathroom. president trump and first lady melania beaming for the camera in their final official christmas portrait. will donning it will coordinating tuxedos melania matching with stilettos, fantastic. posting in twitter writing in part merry christmas. i have said this before. and i will say it again, melania has the best wardrobe on earth and i thought that was a fantastic move. i love a lady in a tuxedo. those are my two cents. pete: there you go, nice picture. still ahead, minneapolis lawmakers are now backpedaling their calls to defund the city's police department despite just passing $8 million in budget cuts. hear why our next guest says this is just a strategic retreat after a brief break. ♪ baby ♪ why don't you just meet me in the middle ♪ i'm losing my mind just a little ♪ so why don't you just meet me in the middle ♪ in the middle ♪ baby ♪ looking to save money this holiday season?

>> well, i think it's just a strategic retreat from the ultimate goal of defunding the police. they found out that the citizens of this city was totally against defunding the police, so they are getting what they can now. and beings they are going to come back later and they are already talking about coming back later. they already are talking about the next budget. they are already talking about the changing the charter to put the police under the city council. so i think this is just them facing political reality. but the plan still is to give us these childish solutions to adult problems. pete: their ultimate goal remains defunding. they say some of the 8 million that's cut will go towards violence prevention which last time i checked police are a part of that here are the stats recently in minneapolis. you are living this right now. 78 homicides so far in minneapolis this year. up from 45 last year. when you look at violent crime there has been 5,000 incidents compared to 4,000 last year. so you are talking about the reality of voters saying we don't want to defund the police. what about the reality on the streets? will the reality of a even more unsafe minneapolis put pressure on the city council walk back from this lunancy? >> yes. it has put pressure on the walk back. as a matter of fact, they recently approved some mope to hire outside law enforcement agencies to come in and do so. so they understand there is an issue. and once again, for our citizens, who is living in this. you get one of these are -- popping off four or five times a minute showing serious crime going on in this city. and as one who has known this city, minneapolis used to be like a city on the hill. a shining light on the hill. low crime. great families and great parks and things. and to see this all being destroyed by the current group of radicals, i should say, it's -- breaking. pete: leave it to leftists to mess it all up. lacy lee johnson, thank you so much for your time. we appreciate it this morning. >> thank you very much. pete: coming up, barstool sports promises to help small businesses. the first recipient brought to tears. >> you are a small business owner. you need help. reach out. we can help you. >> thank you from the bottom of my heart. you don't know how many people you are helping. pete: that small business owner joins us live with an update next. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. the moment you sponsor a job on indeed you get a short list of quality candidates from our resume database. claim your seventy five dollar credit, when you post your first job at indeed.com/home. the only thing a disaster can't destroy is hope. donate now at redcross.org but you can work out anything wowith comcast business.w. get fast, reliable, and secure internet on the nation's largest gig speed network. flexible tools - like wi-fi you control. voice solutions that connect you from anywhere. and expert advice here, here, or even here. be fast. be flexible. bounce forward with comcast business. get started with a powerful internet and voice solution for just $64.90 a month. plus, for a limited time, ask how to get a $500 prepaid card when you upgrade. switch today. will: the man behind barstool sports dave portnoy is launching half a million dollars fund to help is small businesses hit hard by the pandemic. >> businesses aren't going to survive. they are already on the last legs pulling the plug on them. nobody seems to care in the government. we will do what we can. to qualify for money from us you have to still be paying your employees your payroll has to still be on. if february rolls around february march each month we will cut you a check how much you need to stay in business to lift things over. will: the first recipient of that aid couldn't be more grateful. >> dave, i really want to thank you for starting this fund. you don't know what it means to us to start in april we had our doors closed. we made it through the summer. my staff with their mortgages, families, you don't know how many people you are helping. will: joining us now is the opener of borelli's restaurant cafe frank borelli and his son frankie who works at barstool sports. frank, we saw the emotion in the clip when you were notified that you were the first recipients of the aid. tell us why it meant so much to you and your business. >> well, good morning, will. yes, it was overwhelming just to know the support i will be able to keep my doors open the next couple of months with my staff in there many, many years. will: your timeline, frank, making it through the pandemic i noticed you said it would have been hard the coming months. those were the biggest months, january, february and march. how long does this help you to stay in business? what does it do for your employees? >> it's going to be a major factor for my employees. they will be able to keep their payroll coming in and keep their mortgages going. and the upcoming months, it will be money coming in just enough to keep us going. we are getting great support from our customers right now from the barstool factor. will: i heard your phone is ringing off the hook, yeah, from some of these notifications. dave portnoy says your business typifies the type of business they are wanting to help: tanky you work cameraman were you surprised when you found out your dad's business was the first one to receive help. >> not surprised, more grateful. i have worked for dave for close to 5 years now. i have seen he has a very good heart. he cares about small business owe thinks as barstool as a small bits itself. starting giving out newspapers in boston 20 years ago. he really it hit home with him i especially me being so close to him. he knew this was going to be the first one that he would help because he saw the way my dad works and we have been around for 65 years i think it meant a lot to him to use my dad kind of as, you know, this is the corner stone, small business, this is who we are going to exemplify this fund after. so, yeah, i was more proud about dave stepping up. i knew he had that in him because he has a good heart. will: you know, frankie, i was in sports for many years and barstool has the reputation of bad boys of sport or politically incorrect. so many sports require to you have the exact same opinion you have whether it's political opinion or the way you vote. this is actually backing up your words and what you say this is going out there and helping people. that's the kind of company i assume you have seen behind the scenes at barstool. >> totally. especially the barstool fans. always rally around whether it's a go fund me page someone hurt or in the hospital. we have shown time and time again the common man, the common woman. people that are working the small businesses they like to rally around each other. barstool really is at it highest regard we are a big like, you know, a community and times like this really shows because they really do rally around each other. when dave sets it out and says let's do this, it's a big moment and you can see that the phones are ringing off the hook. the messages are coming in like crazy. it's not just for us. it's going to be more many, many small businesses. we just happen to be the first one to show hey, this guy is struggle glick. let's help it out because, you know, he didn't want to close his doors. he didn't want to do this. it's been 65 years. this is all he knows. will: right. >> dave says i don't know what i would do if someone told me i couldn't operate barstool sports anymore with how hard i work? what are we supposed to do? the fact that we have someone like that in a private business stepping up and helping us is really inhe had credible. i have never seen anything like it. will: community entrepreneurial. private are individual stepping up when government bickers over how to help people. frank, quickly, i know the state government at times and federal government have made it more difficult to stay in business. what do you need from the government in the coming months? >>ing what we need is support. we need to keep our doors open. we are doing the social distancing. tables 6-foot apart. people wearing masks. safe. i still feel indoor dine something a very safe environment until they prove that totally wrong, hike i said we never shut our doors totally and that would help us out tremendously. will: frank and frankie borelli, thank you so much. happy you received this aid and other small businesses. help make it through this lockdown and pandemic. thank you. >> thank you, will. will: up next, could the clock be clicking on california gavin newsom's time in office?

strong words. he should not be on intel. >> well, i think people have to understand the select committee on intelligence, which i served on it is a committee where either the ranking member, mr. mccarthy or the speaker, depending upon your party, chooses who sits on that committee. and only a handful of republicans only a handful of democrats sit on this committee to hear the most sensitive information. so it's not a committee you must serve on. as a matter of fact, it's not even a committee that counts against your, you know, if you will, your normal committees. so it is a privilege and a service on behalf of all the members of congress to sit on the committee so with eric compromised right now in the confidence of his own people, to say the least, plus, of course, members of congress on the republican side, there is no logical reason that nancy pelosi shouldn't pull him and replace him with somebody, by the way, there is always a long list of people who want to get on the committee, waiting for an opportunity to serve. pete: congressman, why would she choose him in the first place is it common that a second term congressman that with no experience with intelligence or law enforcement with be chosen. is he a nonpartisan? does it raise eyebrows from the beginning? >> it has from president beginning. he is from a neighboring area, from an oakland area. i think it had more to too with his little to her. and his proximity to her district. but, you know, regardless of you who he got on. and the fact that he really wasn't qualified, and i will season accept that nobody is qualified at that level practically, except maybe mike pompeo, when he came out as a former cia person. but the fact is there's no logical reason to have him continue serving in a compromised role. by the way, the normal tradition is 8 years and you are off. he has really served his full term at this point, too. will: congressman elect we have done this story several times on "fox & friends." we have talked about the exodus california. states like texas. i believe the numbers are now in the hundreds of thousands of people who have chosen to leave the stayed state of california. the political winds in california always seem to favor democrats. and gavin newsom has benefited. is there any building momentum to change those winds, to recall gavin newsom amidst what's going on in california? >> there's huge building momentum. and you saw it with both in and out of state support for the recall. i think the important thing is that somebody has to have a wake-up call for the governor, or we're going to go exactly down the road, i saw, in 2003 where gray davis didn't understand and the people demanded a change, and they got a pretty radical change with arnold schwarz and for a time we had the lights came back on. power started working. the economy started working. i think if he doesn't take this very, very seriously, a recall is inevitable. jedediah: joe biden on another topic has nominated his interior secretary debbie hol hollins. she would have to exit the house and chip into that democrat majority. your thoughts on that >> it's always dangerous to take members of the house because speciaspecial elections is go et opposite the way they did a few months ago. we certainly have seen that in the past and the trump administration. in this climate it is very possible that any swing seat, even not so swing seat in a biden presidency would end up in republican hands. but, even if they didn't, for the period of time that there is a vacancy, three or four months, it really does change the arab ratio to be more favorable to republicans demanding a seat at the table and some fairness in house operations. pete: congressman elect it's very early there and we are grateful you got up for us. darrell issa, thank you so much. merry christmas. >> merry christmas. pete: thank you. turning now to a few additional headlines. we now know russian spies are allegedly behind a massive cyber attack. a hack. targeting u.s. government the hackers reportedly gaining access through solar winds, a texas company that provides it support for businesses around the world. secretary of state mike pompeo pointing the finger at russia on the mark levin show saying, quote: this was a very significant effort and i think it's the case that now we can say pretty clearly that it was the russians that engaged in this activity. democrat senator chris coons calls it an act of war. >> it's pretty hard to distinguish this from an active aggression that rises to the level of an attack that qualifies as war. >> solar winds revealing in an sec filing that 33,000 customers may have been affected but that estimate fewer than 18,000 are compromised. and the los angeles county district attorney is reversing course on sentencing enhancement. it comes after facing major backlash from victims' families and law enforcement. the newly elected d.a. george cass cone says he will allow friewrts ask for more prison time for convicted criminals on crimes including child abuse, elder der abuse, human trafficking hate crimes and financial crimes. gas con has said he does not believe enhancements necessarily create more safety. i think he wants to get rid. and this baby is getting in the christmas spirit. watch. ♪ [cooing] will >> come on, sing with me. pete: little william dressed in a reindeer onesie tries to sing eligible. teachinjingle bells. he is not old and he is on tune. the will. will: a little pitchy are. pete: going to critique it?

i don't know be if you will have options like that. i don't know how this rollout is going to happen. what are your expectations as to what we can see in the next coming weeks with respect to the rollout? >> well, i think, you know, as we all know there is a lot of media attention on the vaccine effort right now. we will see the hiccups and complexity getting hundreds of thousands if not millions of doses across the country in rapid speed. when it comes to the choice between moderna and pfizer vaccine the truth is you probably won't get a choice and likely doesn't matter because they both have proven to have a very high efficacy as well as proven safe in their clinical trials. what the big issue right now is and we are going to have an advisory committee meeting tomorrow on is after this first rollout of vaccines that are going to predominantly healthcare workers and long-term care facility residents who gets it next. and so that's going to be a little bit of a discord because they are going between should it be more to the high risk people, those who are more likely to end up in the hospital or potentially die from covid-19 or should it go to more frontline workers, specifically those who have are more minorities that are disproportionately affected by covid-19? so we will see that battle play out a little bit. ultimately, it is up to the state to make the decision as to who get the vaccine. jedediah: that's a big conversation we have been starting to talk about that this morning who is going to get it first and who should it be and whatnot. what everybody's mind is obviously the question of side effect. recently a chicago hospital has temporarily paused vaccinations, they are saying out of one dance of caution following adverse reaction who had the vaccine some of the side effects tingling, elevated heart rate. does this concern you at all? >> well, jedediah, first, we have to being a knowledge that just about any person can have a reaction to just about any medication. including a placebo medication. if you look at the clinical trial data, specifically feersz, the rate of leerge reaction was about .61% verses the placebo group .53%. signs of an allergic reaction can happen at any time. we have four severe reactions, potentially anaphylactic type that have occurred with the pfizer vaccine rollout two or three in the u.k. two in the united states. that's four to five reactions in about 266,000 people who had the vaccine this week. not to mention the tens of thousands who received it in the clinical trial who did not have. >> anna: flawill anaphylactic r. >> it's not so common it's a possibility that any time you administer a it vaccine. that's why it's crucial they are administered in an appropriate healthcare sitting because anaphylactic is temporary and treatable and no long-term effect unlike covid-19 where you have about one in 20 people symptomatic from covid-19 actually having that long covid syndrome, will possibly long term sequela a long-term illness. the benefit of being vaccinated still in my opinion far outweighs the risk of developing severe covid-19. jedediah: yeah, i think the risks would apply to other vaccines which have been around for a long time anyway. the fact this is new obviously creates a lot of tension around it. virtually everybody is different. you could react to anything as you said. so thanks for being here today. we appreciate. we are going to follow this story and have you back to talk about a lot in the next coming weeks. my parents included are going to be seconding you a lot of questions so get ready, doc. >> i'm always here. jedediah: we will talk soon. coming up, if you still have people on your christmas list to shop for, we have got you covered. nascar's austin dillon and his family join us with last-minute gifts. don't miss it ♪ merry christmas ♪ new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. the moment you sponsor a job on indeed you get a short list of quality candidates from our resume database. claim your seventy five dollar credit, when you post your first job at indeed.com/home. we're portuguese?

this broadens out the issue slightly jedediah. those in our society who cast the largest stones are usually the ones guilty of the crime they're accusing others of. whether or not it comes to race and those accusing others of racist and secretly harboring their own racist thoughts and often actions. to congressman swalwell accusing the trump administration of having ties to russia, meanwhile, having his own ties to a chinese. pete: exactly. will: chinese spy is a great example of those who accuse others of sins secretly harbor those sins themselves. jedediah: yep, that's exactly right. especially when it comes to politicians. and a lot of questions arise with this. will there be accountability? you know what did kevin mccarthy learn? how much will we actually get to know from that information? you know, lots of questions as to what will happen next. and lots of questions, pete, you referenced with darrell issa earlier you know, why he had the job. had been given this job to begin with. and i think that's an important point because if he didn't have the qualifications, is there some bigger story? there is just is something very odd about this whole thing to begin with. and i'm hoping we get answers. there is no guarantee when it comes to the workings of washington, d.c. but, the hope is that we will find out. pete: yeah, the hope is that he wool find out. i agree. will, you mentioned you know the story of eric swalwell only if you are watching the fox news channel, the "new york times" has not put one drop of ink into this story. not one drop of ink. consider one conversation. nancy pelosi it's been over a week since be she has taken a question. she knows how to run to a podium. adam schiff the chair of the house intel committee certainly knows how to run to a committee. they are great at leaking. on this one they are silent. and we had darrell issa on, representative elect, who has been on that very same committee understands the type of intelligence that it sees he says time for swalwell to go. >> it is a privilege and a service on behalf of all the members of congress to sit on the committee. so, with eric compromised right now in the confidence of his own people, to say the least, plus, of course, members of congress, on the republican side, there's no logical reason that nancy pelosi shouldn't pull him and replace him with somebody. by the way, there is always a long list of people who want to get on the committee, waiting for an opportunity to serve. jedediah: you know, there is no logical reason if your standards are high, as they should be when you are dealing with sensitive information like these people on the intel committee are. you referenced, pete, adam schiff. adam schiff is a joke. he got on tv repeatedly and lied. repeatedly, said he had information about, you know, russian collusion that he didn't have. if that's the standard, that's where we are at. then will there be any accountability for the like of swalwell? if your standard is so low to the likes of adam schiff, is that where we are as a nation when we talk about the intel committee. pete: for the democrats, trey gowdy said 200 other people in the house of representatives who didn't sleep with a chinese spy. pick one of them and you are good. we will see what they do. all right, speaking of dysfunction in washington. by the way, they have signed an overnight two day extension to keep the government open and try to attempt to get a relief bill, based on coast and these businesses that are being crurent. they have had months. nancy pelosi has been unwilling to do it. they have got two more days. >wewill see if they can. as government twiddles their thumbs and get nothing done. dave portnoy you know him from war stool sports. he has set up a fund as a small business himself to help other small businesses that are not getting this relief and need it right now. here's a portion of what dave portnoy said about this new fund. >> how do you expect these people to survive? how are restaurants going to survive? they are already on their last legs pulling the plug on them and nobody seems to care in the government. we will do what we can to qualify for money from us, you have to still be paying your employees. your payroll has to be on. each month we will continue to cut you a check for how much you need to stay in business until this thing is over. once you're in our program, we will pay whatever you need, the necessities you need, the money you need to get through this thing and give you a fair chance to run your business. will: i like this story for two reasons, phis, number one, this is a private citizen stepping up in action when the government drags its feet as you pointed out, which is the way america works, should work. will: absolutely makes america great. you know i came from the world of sports before. this the world of sports is absolutely lock step when it comes to requiring you to uphold certain fashionable opinions. there are those, very few outside of that cool kids lunchroom counter requirement of popular opinion clay travis, barstool sports or myself when i was there. we don't all agree on things. what i like about this is barstool who is accused of being politically incorrect or unpopular when it comes to whether or not you vote the right way or say the right things steps up and takes action to help americans. i, for one, will always prioritize men of action over men of virtue signaling. bra so he today, portnoy and bravo to barstool sports for back youing up your action and helping out americans in a time of need. here is one of those americans. frank borrelli, he owns the borrelli's restaurant and cafe pizzeria. his son works for barstool sports. he is his cameraman. they were on it "fox & friends" earlier. >> it will be a major factor for our employees. they will be able to keep their payroll coming in and keep their mortgages going. the upcoming months, it will be real money coming n time just enough to keep us going. we are getting great support from our customers right now from the barstool factor. >> he didn't want to close his doors. he didn't want to do. this it's been 65 years. this is all he knows. and dave says i don't know what i would do if someone told me i couldn't operate barstool sports anymore with how hard i work what am i supposed to do? the fact that we have someone like that in a private business, stepping up and helping us it's really incredible. jedediah: this is really fantastic to see. i think it's a really important parallel right now. when you parallel the work that's being done by dave portnoy of barstool sports with the complete inaction on the part of so many politicians who were responsible for lockdowns that hindered so many businesses and now they are just going back and forth like they have all the time in the world. i think it's a really interesting parallel when people can look and see when need and aid needs to many do. it doesn't always come from the hand of government first. sometimes you have to look to private citizens. you have to look to community to bring that much needed aid, particularly when politicians fail you. and speaking of politicians who fail you, let's talk a little bit about mayor bill de blasio, everyone's favorite mayor, right? lately he has admitted something and give him credit for it because he is coming out and saying it outright. he is not beating it around the bush. he said redistribution of wealth, active redistribution of wealth is his plan. listen to him on friday. >> there has been so much that needed to be addressed in education in new york city. i like to say very bluntly our mission is to redistribute wealth. a lot of people bristle at that phrase. that is in fact a phrase we need to us i don't. we have been doing this work for seven years to more equitably redistribute resources throughout our school system. it means changing school funding formulas. there are so many things that we have tried to do to profoundly rebalance the equation. community schools. focusing on schools that needed the help the most in communities that had not been invested in. will. jedediah: yeah, so take aside the issue that one of the primary problems that happened in schools has nothing to do with funding and actually has much deeper problem going on in many of these schools. but, you know, it also shows his comments how far the party has come. you remember the joe the plumber moment. he had to walk that back and almost apologize for because people weren't willing to accept that notion. now you see bill de blasio coming out and saying it outright and being up challenged by many people. many on the left and some in the center just say wealth distribution that's a new thing. we are becoming desensitized to things like that, the idea of taking from one person and giving to another. spreading that wealth around. these are topics that we should not be desensitized to and should be talking about and should be horrified by in many ways and look where we are. ing. pete: he is a marxist. we know it. the city is suffering from it as a result are. he has lived that he has been that. he als has talked like that. of course this reveals it. this comes as a new plan in new york city. the reason he is talking about this they are getting rid of merit in schools in new york and using coast as an excuse saying they are going to it scrap academic from middle schools while keeping them for some high schools gifted and talented programs possibly out the window. and in that article there is an article in the "new york post" about it this morning. there is a sense that there is no regard for even pretending to maintain academic excellence and more concerned about optics. what they are concerned about, will, is if you are going to rescrint wealth, part of lifting the people you say you are going to lift is tearing down the people that have the merit and have worked to get there. they are doing it in the schools right here. will: you know pete and i have had this conversation. we are both sensitive about how much we talk about new york and california on this show. but, here is why i think this is important. they use to say fashion originated in new york and spread across the united states of america. i think progressive politics originates out of places like san francisco and new york and spreads to fort bend, indiana. it starts here. you are right. this isn't a surprise. because bill de blasio has been only about his embrace of concepts like marxism. what i would ask is how is it working out for you. how is that redistribution of wealth working in new york city? i have watched firsthand while black and brown and poor students have had opportunities wrenched away from them. educational opportunities wrenched away from them. there is not snow cleared on the streets of. >> no. pete: exactly. will: crime rates going up. the wealthy are fleeing the city. middle class ask cops and firemen how they feel about new york. which class of society are people like bill de blasio and his politics actually helping? they will search for some republican far away to blame it on. cities like it new york chicago it and san francisco how is that redistribution of wealth working. pete: now they are asking for money from the federal government to bail them out because their balance sheet makes no sense. jedediah: how increase in under ifing thrown at schools for a long time doesn't always work. moderna's coronavirus vaccine cleared for use in the united states. vaccinations set to start as soon as monday. nearly 6 of million doses have expected to be distributed next week. despite the second vaccine with pfizer already being administered. health officials say there won't be enough supplies to vaccinate the general public in the u.s. until spring or summer. there have been over 17 million covid-19 cases in the united states with nearly 314,000 deaths. nearly two dozen people are put in handcuffs as they clear a park. crews remove barricades and tents. the encamp. posed a public safety threat. the park is by the area where protesters dubbed the chop zone over the summer. clean-up is expected to take several days. and those are your headlines. pete: finally cleaned them out. it took them a few months, years. up next, conditioning inching closer to a covid-19 relief deal. but major road blocks still holding up a final agreement. the "wall street journal" says democrats are hijacking negotiations. of course to bail out blue states. editor-at-large jerry baker breaks it down for us. ♪ come on and take a free ride ♪ ♪ ♪ when it comes to autism, finding the right words can be tough. finding understanding doesn't have to be. together, we can create a kinder, more inclusive world for the millions of people on the autism spectrum. go to autismspeaks.org and with free curbside pickup at walmart... you can get the perfect gift up until the last minute. let's end the year nailing it. ♪ lecenbut they pack a punch.l,. with over 20 essential vitamins and minerals they are the most complete mini multivitamin. so you can focus on punching above your weight. no matter how high you set the bar. try centrum minis. that selling carsarvana, 100% online wouldn't work. but we went to work. building an experience that lets you shop over 17,000 cars from home. creating a coast to coast network to deliver your car as soon as tomorrow. recruiting an army of customer advocates to make your experience incredible. and putting you in control of the whole thing with powerful technology. that's why we've become the nation's fastest growing retailer. because our customers love it. see for yourself, at carvana.com. pete: as congress scrambles to reach a covid-19 relief deal. the "wall street journal" is calling out democrats for hijacking the fed to bail out states. let's bring in the "wall street journal's" editor-at-large jerry baker. jerry, good morning, thanks for being here. break down your argument. what's at stake here and is it all about the blue states? >> yes. essentially, pete. good morning. pete: divrng. >> that's exactly right. if you recall, it gets complicated. congress is working trying to get a new round of covid relief. $900 billion package still negotiating over the weekend. hopes to pass it perhaps tomorrow sunday. main thing that's holding it up democrats trying to work around congress knowing they may lose the two run-off senate seats in georgia that would mean are senate in the hans of republicans. they want to be able to use the reserve to channel money to states, to big states that are in huge amounts of debt. state like illinois and new jersey. now what happened was the original cares act that was passed back in the spring contained a revision for the fed to lend money on emergency basis. that expires on december 31st. it's very, very clear in the act it expires on december 31st. the democrats want to be able to continue to do that after the are upoffs in georgia. they know if they lose the election they won't have control of the senate and do you will a the things they want to do with money. trying to use the fed essentially to do what would normally be done by congress which is spending money and this is what is holding up the debate. the republican senator pat toomey is trying to prevent them from doing that democrats are pushing back. that's what's going on. pete: these blue states are desperate because their fiscal situation is disastrous tax base in many cases fleeing states to other places where the income tax is little or nothing. in your opinion, in the opinion of the journal, what's the best approach? is it direct payments? is it ppp loan extension? what should a deal actually look like? >> the question if congress wants to authorize more money to states, exactly as you say, pete, states that, by the way, not just gone into -- obviously gotten into huge amounts of trouble, into debt because of the covid crisis because their economies have like. of the -- there are states by the way have been aggressive in shutting down their economies in many of these states. so they have done that already on top of already incredibly improper spending policies over many years. they are losing their tax base. people are moving away from states like illinois and new jersey they want a bailout from the federal government. illinois and new jersey blue states want essentially a bailout from red states like texas and florida. and that is clearly not the right way to go unless you are a democrat and you think you should be able to fund whatever spending they want to do. the best way to do it if that's what congress want to do, congress should do that. it has to be approved by congress the way that are spending normally would. other program clear probably around $1,200 checks to every american. some additional unemployment benefit, unemployment insurance relief. some money for vaccines and for hospitals and things like that. that's the right way to do it. the right way to do this, pete, is to do it through the usual procedures of going through congress and getting that approval. pete: yeah. when the government tells you to shut down, they have a responsibility to do something about it. we will see if they can. gerri baker, thank you so much for your time. >> thank you. ing. >> reporters outraged after biden's team takes questions during a zoom briefing. joe concha here with the backlash next. ♪ ♪ you can count on me ♪ i'll be home for christmas ♪ if only in my dreams ♪ can take you to deep, depressive lows. or, give you unusually high energy, even when depressed. overwhelmed by bipolar i?

they are quite remarkable. colbert to biden, quote: there are those in washington who are going to try to use your adult son as a cudgel against you. how do you feel about that and what do you have to say to these people?

>> well, it's real simple. that's the way the left rolls. it's always division. if you want to find out find out what racism is all about, when you takes people's race and put that against them or segregate them because of it. at the end of the day it comes down to this. i saw something on laura last night. those most at risk are the elderly. those who truly need to have some type of vaccine or protection. let's take care of them first and then, you any, i heard by the end of january that could be over and done with that could be taken care of. get back to normal and at the end of the day, what should younger people be thinking about making sure those who are older, those more at risk taken care of. that's the american way. no, all this division stuff, keep this in mind, american people are waking up to this mess. we don't want to be divided by color, by gender, by race. we don't want that anymore. we want to go back to normal in our country looking outside and outside in. get that done. i'm thank. americans are waking up to this and left is showing us who they really are. jedediah: burgess, i think that's a great point that you make about the importance of unity right now as opposed to division. and one of other thing that you can't help but notice as we are talking to you as will mentioned you are standing in front of that bus. you are on the ground in georgia right now. obviously there is a big runoff that's going to be happening in just a few weeks. you mentioned young people just now with respect to covid and with respect to the vaccine. young people are also playing a big role when it comes to georgia voter registration. those snubs numbers, 56% of new voters are under 5 years old. if you can talk about the impact of that and what you are seeing and hearing on the ground with respect to the runoff. >> well, first of all, this is exciting to he moo. last night. i have a granddad who at 16 volunteered for world war i. my dad in '19 volunteered for world war ii. they fought before i was born for knee. for me to have the life of pursuit of life liberty and happiness. all i have to do is fly to georgia and remind georgians how much the entire country and world is looking to them. i know they will come through for us. so much faith in georgiaens that they will do the right thing. make sure we are fighting for our freedom. we are at that cross. we are at that place where it's interesting to see where we are. but, at the same time, i know american people will come through like we always have and i'm thankful for georgiaens for stepping up. so, yes, younger people, we have 4,000 people are actually helping at the polls to watch here in georgia. so we're stepping up here. and i'm just proud georgia is a state that help pull our union back from the verge of socialism. patty pete you are confident in the voters. how confident are you in the vote counter. the president has been very critical of the governor and secretary of state there. do yodo you feel like they have sufficient safeguards in place to make sure it's only legal votes?

and "the washington post" covid-19 is devastating communities of color can vaccines counter racial inequity. what the debate revolves around the elderly who at this point we all realize lead the more tattle statistics when it comes to coronavirus. overwhelmingly disproportionately affected when it comes to mortality, prioritized or should essential workers? why essential workers? because minority communities are disproportionately represented within. pete: not because they are frontline workers. will: that's exactly right, pete. what they are using as a trojan horse to say this is something we should use to prioritize race when it comes to vaccine here. let me give it to you in your own words. a panel advising the cdc includes doctors like harold smith expert in ethics and health policy at the university of pennsylvania. this is from the "new york times." older populations are whiter. society is structured in a way that enables them to live longer. instead of giving additional health benefit to those who already had more of them when we can start to level the playing field a bit. this is a society losing itself. losing it moral center. losing its values and increasing did i defining us by the color of our skin, jedediah. jedediah: you know, it's amazing how some people just want to make things really complicated and divisive. when, in fact, really it should be really simple. the vaccine should first go to people who need it most. given if they want it. of course, obviously if they don't want it, they don't want it. it should go to people who need it most. look at the vulnerable communities. look at the people who are on the front lines every day who have been on the front lines all of these month trying to help people. end of story. this sudden not be -- this shoue controversial. some people are intent on making it controversial and divisive and conversation about race and whatnot. of course, we have to have that conversation now because they are making it about that and someone has to stand up and say this is absolutely ridiculous and absurd. it's a really sad place that even when we are talking about covid-19 and a vaccine, this stuff has now infiltrated even those most basic conversations where anyone with any degree of common sense should be on the same page. pete: yeah. the left destroys everything it touches. why is it that ethics professors or ethics -- they are always the ones least tethered what it could look like. they are finding some conundrum or new elm nation of the way we must think about things that lead he us to crazy places where we are over rationalizing things. i would rather have pete from 602 twitter i don't know who he is he pointed out this type of leftist chatter vaccine distribution. combination of grievances is but a prelude to a system wide government rationed social justice healthcare. they want to do this everywhere where they can. take certain attributes and say not because of something you have done or a choice that you have made but because of an attribute, a physical attribute. the color of your skin or your gender you should be first or you should be last. that's a really dangerous place to be we had will burgess owens talking about the left are things like this. this is what he said. >> that's the way the left rolls. it's always on division. go ahead and those at most at risk eferldly, need to have some type of vaccine or protection. take care of them first. at the end of the day, what should younger people be thinking about? making sure those who are older, those who are more at risk are taken care of. that's the american way. so, no, all this division stuff, keep this in mind, american people are waking up to this mess. we don't want to be divided by color, by gender, by race. we don't want that anymore. we want to go back to normal in our country are inside out not outside in. will: i hope burgess owens is right that's inspirational message. brakes on. make no mistake, those driving this train. the ones that call everybody else racist. they are the ones perpetuating a racist ideologiology. snake oil. fraud. we can't aloud them to pretend they are the ones virtuous when it comes to race. increasingly divided on shallow characteristics. pete: how many cards are in a monty game. will: do this and always fool you. pete: i believi believe you butt know it. another subject of interest this morning. joe biden, some of his officials did a zoom call with reporters. he has been doing some of this. they do it not all that often and when they do it they only call on the same five reporters every time. exactly they know who is going to be called on and people being called on know they are going to be called on. everybody else knows they have to sit and watch and listen to a zoom call. some of these so-called reporters because they are not really they are all leftist. they are complaining now because they want to ask questions, too. you know, peter doocy at fox news doesn't get to ask questions either. during a zoom call they went into the chat, to have the biden folks, and complained. here's sam stein from the daily beast. consider the source. hey, guys, there is tons of folks looking to ask questions. since this is being done -- hey, guys, can you call on me? my hand is up. this is being done once a week. can we please go longer or at least hold more frequent briefings? ezekiel miller from the ep any chance you could take a few more questions? pete: there is a pleading nature to these chats. pete: my hand is up. andrew feinberg white house reporter point asking questions if you only call on the same group every week? we know biden and his team want to be in a cozy bubble so they call on certain people. it's not as if these reporters would ask tough questions either, jedediah. but, are you surprised by this at all? jedediah: will not surprised. i think i probably would have -- had i been one of those reporters would have done the same thing albeit a little less politely. i probably would have, you know, been bleeped or something in the zoom. but, i think it's indicative of frustration. and i think it's going to start off slow. you said they are all leftist. i don't know individually what those people's politics are even if they're inclined to agree with joe biden on policy, i think it's going to become up very dibbably frustrating to a lot of these people that they are not able to do their job. they, too, want to get in there and ask the questions that they want to ask. they want to be able to get their story. they want to be able to publish their article and increasingly that's becoming problem mac particular we saw that trend during the campaign. you will see a lot more people losing patience with that if joe biden persists. i sense it will be a pattern not going away any time soon. we actually spoke with joe concha. we drew this parallel wait a second, going on during the campaign why do people expect anything differently now? listen to what he had to say on that. >> where was all this outrage during the campaign before an election in terms of getting access to is a candidate, a major party candidate who was running for two years? no one seemed to have a problem that joe biden ran for president by pleading the fifth. now suddenly everybody is taking issue with it. this continues to happen. five questions at the rare press conference that joe biden holds. those five questions are asked by a staffer. i think i saw jen psaki on there, the future white house press secretary that comes from a predetermined list that never includes peter doocy for some reason. because they want to keep joe biden in his safe space by asking cotton candy questions that have nothing to do with things that are pertinent to the american people. will: yeah, i don't know that you can blame a the biden team for getting use for a certain type of treatment from the media and rationally expecting it to continue. pete: yep. we will see if they pull it off. these reporters don't want answers. they want access. they say i got to ask a question. if they would have wanted answers they would have dug into all the stuff that's out there that they don't want to look at because they don't want to make hunter biden and joe biden by extension look bad. turning now to a few additional headlines. new york city's ban on using restaurant bathrooms quietly reversed less than 24 hours later. the ridiculous rule was shared thursday night on the counsel to the narrow's website saying customers may not enter the inside of an establishment for any reason. friday morning it was changed to, quote: customers may enter the inside of the establishment to use the bathroom. all right. meanwhile, michigan's governor extends its ban on indoor dining. gretchen strikes again until january 15th. but whitmer is allowing high schools to restart in person learning and casinos. and cinemas and bowling alleys and stadiums can open with some restrictions. one alley owner says the original rules only putter businesses. >> our bowlers drive 35 minutes down to 75 here in ohio. it's depressing and you feel forgotten about and abused, actually. pete: yeah, follow the science. you can't have a bowl of soup at a restaurant but you can go bowling. of the venues must limit capacity to 100 people close concession stands and maintain social distancing. and movie goers are getting the ultimate covid-19 movie experience in the philippines after nine months of lockdowns. people can watch films while sitting in a venice themed gondola at a float-in cinema. two may sit in one of the socially distanced boat with up to 10 guests per screening. admission costs about 10 bucks. and those are your headlines. you have to get to the philippines but once you are there, you are good. jedediah: looks like fun. i would do it. would you do it. pete: yeah, of course. will: yeah you have to get there. jedediah: i would do it. i would totally do it. still ahead one ripple effect of the pandemic impact on mental health and big one. taking a toll on our children at alarming rate?

>> you know, look, pete, the theme is the fight against socialism. and, look, we have to continue to engage our younger generation in the fight against socialism. teach them about conservative values and teach them about how great capitalism really is and even though, you know, we are going into 'a place where, like i said, aoc is not having a lot of power in the halls of congress, but these people and the squad are very popular on social media. they are very popular on digital media. god knows they have the entire entertainment industry. what we are doing at turning point u.s.a. is we are leading the charge against socialism and trying to teach the youth that socialism is bad. and we have a lot of amazing speakers. we are trying to think about new fun and different ways to push that message because we don't have the backing of hollywood and the entire media in had the entertainment industry behind us. so we have got to get a little more creative and that's what the -- all about. pete: what's happening in k through 12 classrooms and universities embracing soft socialism or straight out marxism. i will, rob, actually be joining you down there in a couple days as a speaker at the summit. i will see you down there. >> absolutely, pete. pete: all right, rob. thank you for the work turning point does. up next, eric swalwell, will he be removed from the house intel committee?

>> two very important questions that speaker pelosi needs to answer because she herself put him on that committee and as you mentioned just in his second term which is very early often a career member of congress. most people wait years to get on that committee and have to have a lot of background in intelligence. we have had former cia officers who have served in congress who got on that committee. people who served in the military in intelligence are often the ones who are put on that committee because it's a very sought after committee. but it put somebody on that committee that had ties to a chinese spy, it just boggles the mind. did speaker pelosi know, by the way, about the tie to fang fang the chinese spy before she put him on the committee? and why hadn't she removed him now. serious questions need to be raised especially when you look at the china problem that the democrat party has. they have been soft on china on many fronts including we were putting together a bipartisan commission to look into china about a year ago. speaker pelosi pulled back and ended up not participating. we still moved forward. leader mccarthy put it together a slate of members including mike mccullough issued a scathing report on china's scathing activity not just the wuhan virus but stealing intellectual property stealing from america. why is this guy still on the committee and why won't speaker pelosi answer the questions. pete: she hasn't said anything about it in a week. don't you think she is counting on the fact that no one is going to cover it. the "new york times" has not put one drop of ink in this story at all? is she assuming this will who past and he will stay where he is he is known as a partisan bomb thrower his or her her guy in that committee? >> yeah. he was the guy running around if you remember during impeachment the probably the most vocal voice to jump in front of anybody to get to a tv camera to call republicans russian spies and accusing the president falsely of being involved in russian spies. turns out he is the guy that is involved with spies. this case the chinese spy. but, look, if speaker pelosi thinks the story is going away. it's just starting to get lays as they would say. even though the mainstream media is not covering it right now. people in the intelligence committee both republican and democrat are very alarmed by developments in this story. there is more to this. and, you know, with swalwell tipped off prior to her leaving the country. why did she leave the country typically if you find a spy, our intelligence agents want to hold on to them to find out more information about what they were doing and she was able to flee the country. all of these questions need to be answered. but to think that the story is going to go away, it's very alarming and just the tip of the iceberg with china's involvement with this country. jedediah: yeah, i think you are right, congressman. people have a lot of questions. the hope is there will be answers and accountability that remains to be seen. there is another topic that people have a lot of questions on as well. that is covid relief. when are those packages going to come through? this has been dragging on and on and on. week after week. now it's been dragged into the weekend. what's going on here? i mean, when can people expect some kind of relief? >> yeah, these negotiations have been going on for weeks now. i would have liked to have seen it resolved back in september. we had a bipartisan bill to give people another round of paycheck protection program loans for our small businesses who were dying on the vine. so they could keep those millions of jobs tied to them. i really think we are going to have it completed by today. the final details were almost worked out last night. today i think you will see it come together and tomorrow we could vote on thattage pa. i'm very hopeful we will get this voted on by the end of this weekend and then that relief will be available to our small businesses and all of those families across this country who are still struggling starting monday morning, hopefully. will: here is to hoping you are right. >> merry christmas. where. will: merry christmas. three men are injured in a small plane crash near the tampa international airport pilot reporting engine failure moments before going down. the aircraft clipping a power pole. the three injured suffered second and third degree burns. the crash is under investigation. chicago area hospital pausing vaccines for it staff after four had reactions. the pause is out of an abundance of caution. symptoms the workers experienced included tingling and elevated heart rate. roughly 300 are staff members 3a problem. distribution plan after doctors protest. >> first in the room. >> back of the line. >> first in the room. >> back of the line. will: only seven residents from stanford were included in the group receiving the 5,000 doses of pfizer vaccine senior faculty working from home were prioritized. stanford ceo says the distribution algorithm followed the federal guidelines of prioritizing older employees but they will be revising it. pete: wow. will: skiers quite the shock on the slopes. check this out. a moose runs across the side of the mountain in park city, utah. skiers were forced to dodge the beast cutting across their path mid run. thankfully, they were able to avoid a direct collision. pete: that's. >> anna: mall i don't want to mess with. jedediah: so cute. aaa they are huge and b they are aggressive. you want to stay away from moose. you think about bear and all of that you discount the danger of a moose it. jedediah: are you guys going to disappoint me and tell me aftera pet moose on top of a bear?

if they are asking you something and you are doing it, what's left to do? >> right. so, we have actually had to condemn as they say like white supremacy and stuff like that many different times. this is just one of those many times. and i mean, at this point, what we can really do is just not take it anymore, i guess, is the best way to say it, you know. we have been a group that has been very open to members, that has been very open for discussion, which is part of the reason why we like to remain neutral in our distances on things like the proud boys as an organization to allow our members to have their own opinion and form their own thoughts on something. and it's ridiculous that we are constantly being belittled and we are constantly being, i guess, thrown under the bus. jedediah: yeah. and a resolution passed unanimously calling for a cultural competency training. i would be really interested to see if this applied to other organizations or other more left-leaning organizations. i would be curious to see if this litmus test went on both sides. i have my suspicions it probably does not. thanks for joining us today, isaiah. >> no problem. thank you so much. jedediah: we reached out to the university of oregon for a statement. we did not hear back. and you, coming up, rushing to wrap up your christmas shopping?

secondarily, why does he remain very few questions asked of nancy pelosi, as to eric swalwell's swirling controversy now, and seemingly lacking in impact on his career in congress jedediah: yeah, and being on that intel committee you're dealing with highly-highly- sensitive information and i can't speak to exactly what those individuals see on a day-to-day basis but clearly that's not someone who you want compromised in any way. you want someone there whose secure, whose not going to be affected or influenced by any outsiders, so this is a very complex issue and it seems to me that there are many other individuals as we've said that could easily serve on that committee and not be compromised so the he's etans to remove him or replace him seems odd to me as well. pete: as trey gowdy said there are over 200 people in the house of representatives, democrats who have not slept with achiness spy. pick any of them and they are better than eric swalwell, no experience eric swalwell, he's very close to nancy pelosi, being on the intelligence committee makes you privy to a lot of things he's a partisan bombthrower showing a willingness to leak, calling other people spies as he's done for four years, she doesn't want to get rid of him because he's useful to her, ultimately and nancy runs to the podium, she hasn't talked about this for over a week, realizes it's a problem but is counting on the fact that places like the new york times won't even talk about it which they haven't not one drop of ink on this story is the fact that our single-greatest enemy, potentially compromised a congressman with that kind of access, yet she answers nothing for it. someone who did come on and answer it about it was steve scalise. we talked to him about this earlier the minority whip. here is what he said. it was a guy running around if you remember during impeached, probably the most vocal voice jumping in front of anybody to get to a tv camera to call republicans russian spies and accusing the president of falsely being involved in russian spy, turned out he's the guy that's involved with sp ies, in this case a chinese spy, did speaker pelosi know, by the way, about the tie to fang fang, the chinese spy, before she put him on the committee and why hasn't she removed him now? there are serious questions that need to be raised especially when you look at the china problem that the democrat party has. pete: and leader mccarthy comes out and says based on what i saw which i can't talk about he should be gone and the other detail is the spy, fang fang, was able to leave the country, without being caught, who tipped her off. was it him? shouldn't we have answers to those too? will: steve scalise points out that swalwell is one of the people leading the charge in alleging that president trump and his administration had ties to russian spies. i think 2020 has taught us those that cast the largest stones keep those same sins to themselves when it comes to coronavirus restrictions, to accusing everyone to being spies while you have a tie to a chinese spy. those who sing the loudest are the ones covering their own sins , jedediah. jedediah: yeah, i think that's an absolutely fair point, and we've seen emerge in many capacities throughout this year, unfortunately, and we've talked a lot about what's going on within the democratic party and which way it's going to go, frankly, at this point, will joe biden be influenced by the hard left and one thing that's going to happen that's interesting is that aoc, whose considered really a leader in the far left wing, she has a social media influence, a lot of people like her and listen to her. she lost out on a prestigious committee role with the house energy and commerce committee, and she lucked out by secret ballot actually and i think the fact that she had publicly taken on joe manchin that she was viewed as this part led individual who wasn't going to be able to compromise or come to the table and negotiate. representative henry queliar a democrat from texas weighed in said i'm taking into account who works against other members in primaries and who doesn't, interesting statements there and one of the reasons why aoc may not have been chosen for this is because of things she said in the past. this may be one example of that. >> i do think that we need new leadership in the democratic party. i think it's easy for someone to say oh, well why don't you run but the house is extraordinarily complex, and i'm not ready [laughter] it can't be me. i know that i couldn't do that job. whenever there's a challenge, it kind of collapses and that is the result of just many years of power being concentrated in leadership with a lack of real grooming of the next generation of leadership. >> are you ready to say pelosi and schumer need to go? >> i mean, i think so. we need to shift power. we need to make sure that we have a transition of power in the leadership of the democratic party. pete: at least she knows she shouldn't be speaker of the house, i guess that's one small point for minor self-awareness. now this is a spot on the energy committee, which she's the queen of the green new deal. that's why she wanted to be there. that's part of that rejection. you mentioned that secret vote, jed. it was 46-13 against her, and i think as a reflection of some of the frustration democrats have. i will say this though, that nancy pelosi and steny hoyer and the other leaders in the house they're the old power and even though they are leftist liberals they're old school democrats and they had so much money in campaign donations to members that they got those votes but that doesn't change the fact that comrad cortez reflects the energy of a base which has an expectation that all the rioting in the streets is matched and the green new deal actually happens even if it destroys our economy, so this is a problem the left will have and her voice will continue to be loud because the media will continue to amplify it. we had rob smith on the program talking about democrats, are they rejecting the far left or not and here is what he said. >> what's going on here is very indicative of a trend that we've seen for quite a while now, with the democratic party and this goes even back to when joe biden got the nomination of the democratic nomination for president and this is moderate democrats and centrist democrats freezing out these far left radicals of the party who seem to be a lot more popular on twitter and on the cover of vanity fair than they are in the halls of congress. will: i don't know if this is nancy pelosi and steny hoyer rejecting the far left of the democratic party as much as they are rejecting aoc. you see , i think we have two things here, aoc is making a mistake in terms of manipulation and she's essentially committing bad politics by saying outloud what everybody else knows to be true. she is depriving herself of their support by taking away support from them. in other words how is nancy pelosi going to have aoc's back if aoc doesn't have nancy pelosi 's back but on the other side of this equation, aoc is right it is time for a change in leadership with the democratic party, pelosi and hoyer and the old guard have been there forever so i don't know if that adds up to aoc being the leader of the democratic party but i don't shes wrong. pete: scary with that leadership change would look like. jedediah: yeah, it's also interesting where do the voters lie, right? would voters support that? i don't know. i'm mixed sometimes i think people voted joe biden in because they felt he was a moderate and other times i feel like well they voted him in and they knew he would shift left so it's really interesting where that voting base is and whether a large enough majority of people would support the likes of an aoc. i think it happens to be more people on the democratic side than we realize would get on board with that she's very very popular particularly among young people who perhaps don't know or think about the implications of her policies but i think she's going to be the new face, her and others are going to be the new face of the party. 100%. all right, we're going to turn to some headlines now president trump signs a two day spending bill to avert a shutdown as congress negotiates a coronavirus relief bill as moderna vaccine is cleared for emergency use in the u.s. with vaccinations set to start monday. nearly 6 million doses are set to be distributed next week and about 130,000 americans have received the vaccine so far with more than 17 million confirmed cases and nearly 314,000 deaths. >> and mike pompeo blames russia for the massive cyberattack hack targeting the u.s. government. on the mark lavine show the secretary in state saying this was a a very significant effort and it's the case that we can say clearly that it was the russians that engaged in this activity. solar wind is revealing in an s ec filing that 33,000 customers may be affected but fewer than 18,000 are compromis ed. florida senator marco rubio writing on twitter in part, we can't afford to be wrong on attribution because america must retaliate and not just with sanctions. >> and look at this , you heard of cats getting stuck in trees but what about stuck between walls, oh, no. firefighters in england going through a wall to rescue the cat it's unclear how it got stuck after posing for some pics with the crew, he was eventually returned to her owner, and those are your headlines and that's the trouble with cats. they get into the craziest places they are like contortioni sts and they don't know how to get themselves out. will: so the cat was living up to its name? pete: that's true. although i will say cats once they get themselves in those positions they find their way out and i was surprised because the cats we have it was their first snow they ever seen and they loved it like snow cat, like cat snow dogs running around, it was insane. i'm telling you, will. jedediah: pete, have they ruined the christmas tree yet? pete: they climbed up it, all around it, knocking things down, everything but they are like dogs. will: do they fit? pete: they are smarter than your dog. will: do they sit when you tell them to sit? pete: absolutely not but i don't want them to or their affection jedediah: neither does my dog. you will read the headlines now, will. will: it says pete. pete: oh, or i'll read the headlines. jedediah: [laughter] will: you want me to do it though? pete: straight ahead more relief is on the way as the fda approve s the moderna covid-19 vaccine but some are now arguing over who should get vaccinated first, saying it should be based on race. dr. carol swain is up next. trelegy for copd. ♪ birds flyin' high you know how i feel ♪ ♪ breeze drifting on by you know how i feel ♪ [man: coughing] ♪ it's a new dawn, it's a new day... ♪ no matter how you got copd it's time to make a stand. ♪ ...and i'm feelin' good start a new day with trelegy. no once-daily copd medicine has the power to treat copd in as many ways as trelegy. with three medicines in one inhaler, trelegy helps people breathe easier and improves lung function. it also helps prevent future flare-ups. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. do not take trelegy more than prescribed. trelegy may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing, chest pain, mouth or tongue swelling, problems urinating, vision changes, or eye pain occur. it's time to start a new day. ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy. and save at trelegy.com. but with walmart's low prices, you still know how to do it up. and keep costs down. let's end the year enjoying more. ♪ you are all i need baby baby to get by ♪ lythey customize yours lcar insurance. so you only pay for what you need. wow. that will save me lots of money. this game's boring. only pay for what you need. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. pete: welcome back well a second covid-19 vaccine receiving approval from the fda, with distribution starting as soon as monday, but some are now arguing over who should get the vaccines first. the elderly or minorities? here to discuss, former professor and black voices for trump advisory board member, dr. carol swain. doctor, thank you so much for being here, and merry christmas we always love having you. before we get you to answer those questions, let me read what was said in the new york times and the washington post to give some context to this argument. here is harold smith, he's an ethics expert in the new york times saying older populations are whiter, society is structured in a way that enables them to live longer instead of giving additional health benefits to those who already had more of them we can start to level the playing field a bit and here is mark lipstich a infectious disease epidemiologist at harvard saying teaches have middle class salaries and are very often white and have college degrees and of course they should be treated better but they are not among the most mistreated of workers. carol, how did a discussion about a vaccine become a discussion about race? >> well, with critical race theory, everything is about race and it saddens me that we have abandoned our core principles and what you find taking place all across america, under the guides of diversity, equity, inclusion, is racism, and it's reverse racism against whites, and i have no respect for what i see being touted, because they have no moral grounding. they're not a part of the american judeo-christian value system when it comes to our belief in the sanctity of every human life that humans are in the image of god, and discrimination is wrong. it's wrong if it's done against people of color, and it's wrong if it's done against whites and it is against the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment and the civil rights laws and it's time for people to stand up and defend our principles, our values, and one of the important principles is the principle of non-discrimination. it's wrong to discriminate against anyone and that includes white people. pete: carol do you think they understand that when they are emphasizing race this way, it really is reverse racism? do they ever have a sense that the more they talk about it the more they perpetuate it? >> they don't care. they absolutely don't care but the rest of us should and i believe that this is the time in america when racial and ethnic minorities have to step forward and defend american values and principles, because a lot of white people have been to the point that they will not stand up for principles and i don't care whether they're democrats or republicans, you see that minorities are being used to pretty much destroy america when it comes to even something simple about the right to vote, the fundamental things that the voting rights act covered. all of a sudden that's being used and weaponized against our system. standards have been lowered to the point that you can get away with anything, and say that it's being done for social justice. this is lewd a kiss and ludacris and it's time for more people than me to say this. pete: you're a wise woman, carol i want to congratulate you this morning president trump was named to a 1776 commission you're one of 18 commissioners congratulations, and it comes as there's an attempt to fight back against the 1619 narrative in fact 4,500 classrooms across america have adopted the curriculum of 1619 project. carol what will the 1776 commission be doing? >> first of all i'm very thankful to president trump for appointing me as a vice chair. pete: i didn't know that, congrats. >> i'll be able to really help shape the report but we want to educate our young people and americans about our nation's founding, about the 1776 declaration of independence, and just how those principles, those founding principles shaped our nation so much that's positive about america came from the declaration of independence. how many people read it? not many young people and probably not many older people. we need to read the declaration of independence, we need to read the constitution and the bill of rights, and this is a moment where everyone needs to stand up and the american people need to hold their legislators whether they're democrats or republican s, hold them accountable. they need to read it and they need to stand up and defend our values and principles, there's no reason for them being in washington, if they're not going to fight for fair and free elections, if they're not going to fight for non-discrimination, if they're going to be silent we don't need them. pete: amen, carol swain, thank you so much. victor davis hanson, matthew spa lding, charlie kirk, you've got big work in front of you please come back and we're always grateful for your courageous and inspirational words. >> merry christmas to everyone. pete: merry christmas to you, doctor. calls growing for eric swalwell to be removed from the house intel committee over his ties to a chinese spy, as the media and nancy pelosi give the california lawmaker a pass. senator marsha blackburn says democrats are too cozy with china and she joins us, next. if you have moderate to severe psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis, little things can become your big moment. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats differently. for psoriasis, 75% clearer skin is achievable, with reduced redness, thickness, and scaliness of plaques. for psoriatic arthritis, otezla is proven to reduce joint swelling, tenderness, and pain. and the otezla prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. tell your doctor about your medicines and if you're pregnant or planning to be. otezla. show more of you. pete: we're back with sports headlines. will: if selected notre dame coach brian kelly threatens to skip the college football playoffs if parents cannot attend. >> it is an absolute shame if parents can't be watching their kids play. will: this comes as officials decide whether to hold a semi final game at the rose bowl in pasadena despite california banning fans. >> meanwhile, the san francisco 49ers will finish its season in arizona, the 9ers are relocating after covid-19 restrictions banning contact sports in santa clara county were extended until january 8. the team will practice and play their final home game at the arizona cardinals state farm stadium. over to you jedediah. jedediah: thanks, will. we've been telling you about house minority leader kevin mccarthy sounding the alarm after receiving an fbi briefing on congressman eric swalwell's ties to a suspect suspected chinese spy. i don't talk about what goes on inside of there, but it only raised more questions and the one thing that was fundamentally answered, he should not be on intel. i just think there are definitely 200 other democrats that i know could fill that place. jedediah: here to react, tennessee senator marsha blackburn. senator thanks for joining us. i listened to that clip and it seeps pretty obvious to me that if you're on this intel committee and you're handling high-level classified information, that you should get a guarantee, people should get a guarantee that you're not compromised in any way. it seems to me that swalwell is compromised so why not remove him, replace him, to do something? >> and there should be a rush to admit that the democrats have a china spy problem and jed, now with this spy ring seeming to operate in california and in san francisco, and their tendency to choose up and comers and the political process, and to groom them, that should cause everyone some concerns and if nancy pelosi wants to assure the american people that they are on the up and up, and that there was no information given to her that was not given to the republicans, then she needs to put a stop to this. she needs to have him recuse himself from that committee. she needs to get to the bottom of what has happened not only with china. my goodness we've got a senate candidate in georgia right now. john ossoff, who has a cozy with china issue, and people need to know what is going on with china , with russia, with the other two people in the new access of evil, iran and north korea and figure out what is happening when it comes to surveillance, intelligence that is being conducted against our nation and against our people. jedediah: you mentioned nancy pelosi and the need for her to want to get to the bottom of this. i see no indication that she will, as of yet. she seems to have just laughed this off, oh, there's no problem with him, there seems to be no interest investigating it or getting to the bottom of it. that may change but as of right now i'm highly unimpressed with her reaction to what we've seen unfold in the news. i want t ask you, though, about a media topic because it's really interesting to me the double standard that often exists in media in terms of how they approach conservative versus liberal women, oftentimes women who are following very similar life paths making similar decisions, and this was interesting, from harper's bizarre there was a headline on amy coney barrett that read the myth of the working mother and now take a look at this glamour mag headline the power and threats of mothers like amy coney barrett weaponizing to get amy coney barrett confirmed so you see all of these headlines and now you juxtapose that with glamour magazine coming out in this december, and somewhat praising, you know, leaders in the biden administration, you know, general mali as well saying they have really challenging jobs as mothers, as full time workers why this double standard and aren't they tired of doing this? people are really disgusted when they see this stuff, why have they not caught on to that? >> and they are not tired of doing it and they're going to continue because the left believes in intellectual isolation when it comes to women and women's issues and jed as you know i had a book that came out in september on this very topic, the mind of a conservative woman, but the left says, unless you go to our agenda then we don't want to hear from you and if you're pro- life and pro-family and pro- religion and pro-business and pro-military your opinion does not count so they really do have a double standard and they delight, it is very intentional in how they treat conservative women and diminish them and disregard their opinions, and what we have to look at though is that all across the country this year, whether it was state or federal elections, voters, by the millions, chose the conservative female. you saw it in the races for the house. we have a new conservative woman coming into the senate, cynthia lumis, from wyoming, and voters are choosing conservative women because they are looking at this agenda of the left and going hey, wait a minute, i like my family, i like my husband. i want to be a participant. i want to make my own decisions. i don't want to give my freedoms to the federal government and have them give a little bit back to me, so we know that we're in the era of the conservative woman. i think the best is yet to come for us and the leadership we will bring to the country. jedediah: you know, senator i think media hypocrisy and double standard was exposed when sarah palin run. i never saw such atrocities that came out of nowhere unleashed toward her and it just seems they haven't learned yet, you'd think that by now you'd learn it wasn't terribly received well but not only people in the left but people in the center, people on the right, people just don't like this stuff in general but they keep doing it so we'll see. thanks, senator for being here we appreciate it. >> good to be with you. jedediah: still ahead the new york times now admits one of its popular podcasts about isis was based on false recording, lara logan is here to react to that, next. >> ♪ ♪ sharing smiles together is a gift. at aspen dental, it's easy to gift yourself the smile you deserve. new patients, get started with a comprehensive exam and full set of x-rays with no obligation. and if you don't have insurance, it's free. plus, get 20% off your treatment plan. enjoy flexible payment options and savings when it matters most. we're here to make your smile shine bright so you can start the new year feelin' alright. call 1-800-aspendental 7 days a week or book today at aspendental.com finding the right words can be tough.n it comes to autism, finding understanding doesn't have to be. together, we can create a kinder, more inclusive world for the millions of people on the autism spectrum. go to autismspeaks.org will: well the new york times is in damage control mode after an internal review found the main source for the 2018 award winning podcast series, about isis, entitled caliphate, was based on false reporting. >> i think we fell in love with the fact that we have gotten a member of isis who would describe his life in the caliphate and would describe his crimes. i think we were so in love with it that when we saw evidence that maybe he was a fabulist, when we saw evidence he was making some of it up, we didn't listen hard enough. pete: so in love with that story about isis, turns out he wasn't the head chopper here to react host of fox nation lara logan, thank you so much for being here , so what do you make of this. this is the story that they're now retracting. >> you know, what i make of it is this. the battlefield of information warfare at this point is full of casualties. what do you see everywhere? stories that have been proven to be false, that the record has never really been fully- corrected and there's so many examples at this point of hypocrisy and double standards whether it's the stories about amy coney barrett not being a real working mother or whether it's about the trump family, or whether it's about hunter biden or russia collusion, ukraine impeachment, i mean, you can go on and on and on, so what i'd takeaway from that is when you only have that conversation, what you're doing is helping them. you're assisting the political strategists and the operatives that are pushing this kind of information warfare and this kind of false coverage. we know at this point that the new york times is no longer objective, and yet, that story that you just mentioned, went a peabody award and was a finalist for the pulitzer and you won't hear anything out of these institutions, you won't see any awards that are retracted, you won't see any apologies issued and you won't see any for russia collusion and how many reporters won multiple rewards for that false reporting right? and you saw what happened with hunter biden so that whole conversation, that doesn't get us anywhere. it doesn't move the needle forward. we're not really talking about why people still care what the new york times says. why people are still following it. why we're still doing the segment about the new york times and it's about accountability and if you step back and look at the big picture , what you see is theres been no accountability from the justice department. there's been no accountability from the fbi. there's been no accountability from the media, or these institutions or from any of the scientists who have been pushing full science about the climate. it just means there's a lot of science that was wrong and its been proven wrong at this point and what we hear is silence and that's the real problem here and when people talk about president trump running in 2024, i mean, i'm just shaking my head, because you really think he's going to be free to run? you really think anyone in the trump family is not going to be fighting charges politically- motivated prosecutions? they're not going to be the only ones. if you look at what the media has been talking about they now suddenly are mentioning when it relates to voter fraud or election fraud or questions about the fairness of the election, the immediate response is to throw the word se dition in there and that's because they've been guilty for the last four years, and they now are within a hair's breath of getting away with that crime, and what have we seen? they use the information dominance they have in the media to project the things they've done on to people who are innocent and then they use a politically-motivated prosecution to get false accountability and as long as you have information dominance people don't really know what's going on so there's no public pressure, there's no political pressure from the people, and everyone from the supreme court justice now just gets away with doing nothing. jedediah: and lara, the unfortunate reality is that sometimes, even those corrections and those retractions, they don't even matter at that point because once that false story gets out there and makes its rounds, that's what people hear. they don't always read the correction that's usually in fine print on the bottom of the page. they don't always gain awareness of the retraction, but that original story, you know, gained speed and that becomes the story whether it's true or not so that's an unfortunate reality of all of this but thanks for joining us with your great insight. >> because it's everywhere. thanks for having me have a good weekend. will: all right let's toss it over to rick reichmuth for our weather this morning, what's up, rick? rick: hi guys we got a pretty good weekend overall in-store. a lot of people may be beginning travel trips for this coming christmas week but i'll tell you what we do have one little patch of rain down across parts of the south later on today could become a little bit severe across parts of southeast texas maybe really strong winds associated with it could see spin up tornado as well. this is the forecast radar how this plays out, notice this line of storms getting a little bit more severe and stronger especially across parts of east texas into southern louisiana, pulls off towards the east kind of weakens a little bit overnight and by tomorrow brings scattered showers and maybe towards the mid-atlantic, a little bit of snow coming across parts of new england but overall not anything certainly that causes problems after the really significant storm that we saw this week. what we will see though is temperatures remain really cool across parts of the northeast, we warmup a little bit, maybe get a little bit closer towards average temperatures the next couple days before the bottom drops out again across the central part of the country later on this coming week. all right, guys back to you. will: thank you, sir. pete: thank you, rick. will: frustration among reporter s seemingly starting to mount as the biden transition team continues to cap the number of questions biden will answer, and when does he take a question well, only when it's a softball, at least one of those reporters is pressing joe biden. our very own peter doocy is here next. >> ♪ ♪ my nunormal: fewer asthma attacks. less oral steroids. taking my treatment at home. nucala is a once-monthly add-on injection for severe eosinophilic asthma. not for sudden breathing problems. allergic reactions can occur. get help right away for swelling of face, mouth, tongue, or trouble breathing. infections that can cause shingles have occurred. don't stop steroids unless told by your doctor. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. may cause headache, injection site reactions, back pain, and fatigue. ask your doctor about nucala at home. find your nunormal with nucala. will: reporters are expressing their frustration with biden's transition team after they limited the questions asked during a zoom press briefing joe concha joined us earlier blasting this trend coming from the next administration. >> this continues to happen, right?

>> hey, will. will: so i'd love to ask you this. you've been there, in washington , covering at least the trump adminitration, now you're transitioning with the transition team to the biden administration. just give me a feel for the difference between how these two administrations are handling the press? >> well, everything is different now in 2020 so that's why these briefings are not really over the phone or even in person. they're all zoom, and it's not new that we did not get a question yesterday because in two months of these weekly transition briefings with the biden team, fox has never been called on and it's not new that yesterday, nobody of the five people who were called on asked about hunter biden, because in two months of these things on zoom, nobody has. what is new is that at the end of this zoom thing yesterday, where you can't just shout out a question, because you're over the computer, you got to type in the chat box i'd like to ask a question, thank you. towards the end, people that did not get called on, a handful of other outlets, ap, and independent journalists, started pressuring really pleading with the biden team to take some more questions. we had one guy from the daily beast saying hey there's tons of people that has questions since this is being done once a week could we please go longer at least hold more frequent briefings and right after that the guy who runs the white house correspondence association from the ap said any chance you can take a few more questions, there are a lot of folks here with questions and that was followed by an independent journalist who wrote, is there a point in saying we want to ask questions, if you only call on the same small group every week? so, the difference is that because of covid, you can't just corner somebody or catch somebody at an event or out and about, because everybody is hunkered down, and the very few chances that you get to ask the question of the white house team, that it is very easy for them just to close out the zoom box. will: to dodge it or go into steven colbert and address these issues in a very friendly environment but even when you can shout a question it's met with somewhat limited success. let's take a quick look back, peter this was your attempt to get a question about hunter biden to joe biden. >> did hunter biden commit a crime? have you spoken to your son, mr. president-elect? >> i'm proud of my son. >> are you confident your son hunter did nothing wrong? >> i'm confident. will: you know, peter i don't think the story is going to go away but i don't know how joe biden is ever going to have to answer for the story, despite your best efforts. >> well, even if it is just one question and one very short answer at a time we can piece things together that way, and to the president-elect's credit, he could just keep walking when he's leaving, but he seems to at least want to give us a little something. will: that is a little something , so a little credit i guess, peter. i would like a more full answer to your very appropriate question, you being the only person asking that question with any sense of seriousness, in the media, i wish you luck, peter as you try to get answers from joe biden. thank you, man. >> thanks, will. thanks. will: take care. coming up christmas is just days away but what do you get for that person who has everything already?
