future ambition. an anonymous former harris staff member tells the post it's clear that you're not working with somebody who was willing to do the prep and the work. with cay kamala you have to put up with a constant amount of soul destroying criticism and her lack of confidence so you're constantly sort of propping up a bully and it's not really clear why. here are the people leaving her office, symone sanders, the chief spokesperson, the communications director, the hill reporting peter vels, the press operations director and vince evans, deputy director of public engagement and intergovernmental affairs. harris herself along with white house officials including press secretary jen psaki playing down any issues, any conflicts, citing just simple staff turnover. listen. >> so you don't feel misused or under-used? >> no, i don't. i am very, very excited about the work that we have accomplished. >> i know the vice president is grateful to all of the staff who have served her. she also understands the excitement and the grueling nature of working on a campaign and working in a white house. >> reporter: gil durand, a former aide to harris while in california when she was the attorney general, he wrote the ceaseless staff turnover will continue unless the white house takes charge and provides stewardship for the vice president's office. the stake for the nation is high, this level of dysfunction must be swiftly put to rest. other white house officials continue to defend the vp and began doing so months ago when the story began bubbling up locally and now it's become more national, including chief of staff ron klain and advisor cedric richmond all coming to vice president harriss' aid. carley: it was bubbling up. now it's a full boil. thank you for joining us. it started off with bad poll numbers for the vice president and there was a cnn article claiming there was a riff between the vice president and the president, then staffers started to leave, some high profile ones like symone sanders and now there's a washington post article claiming what that she is a bully. i think you're allowed to be a tough boss but you also have to be a effective and so far she has proven not to be effective on that front. benjamin: one of the criticisms has been she is always under-prepared. a number of staffers said she doesn't read briefings and gets upset and angry at staffers when she is a accused of not being prepared as if it's their fault. we're learning more about how she operates and her office operates. some of her staffers in california, they only stayed for five months. they're talking out as well. i wonder if we might hear more damning sort of news coming out about how she operates and look at the elephant in the room, what happens in 2024. people are talking about her as a future president just a few months ago and that seems further away than ever. i think back to in the last few weeks how people are talking about a possible harris/buttigieg ticket which, again, right now seems bizarre and i think it would be a gift to the republicans if that was you true. this is not the sort of news the white house wants to see coming out about their vice president right now. carley: i guess the only problem for democrats, if it's not harris, buttigieg, and this is all speculation because the presidential election is so far away, then who will it be? they don't have a deep bench when it comes to possible presidential candidates. benjamin: that's right. it all depends on whether the be president himself decides to run again. carley: exactly. benjamin: let's turn to this now. former cnn anchor chris cuomo denying new accusations of sexual misconduct against him. cnn firing its star anchor after the network discovered he advised his brother through his own sexual misconduct scandal. carley: ashley strohmier is here with more on the reaction to the new accusations. good morning. >> reporter: the accuser felt she had to speak out to protect other women. she offered to provide evidence of her allegations. her attorney said chris cuomo looked into the director and a told viewers i have always cared deeply about these issues and profoundly so. i just wanted to tell you that. hearing the hypocrisy of chris cuomo's on air words and disgusted by his efforts to try to discredit these women my client retained counsel to report the serious sexual misconduct against her to cnn. steven goldberg, a spokesperson for chris cuomo issued a statement denying the claims, saying to the extent they were sent to cnn to he negate what chris cuomo told his audience, he fully stands by his on air statements about his connections to these issues, professionally and a in a profoundly personal way. if the goal in making these false and unvetted accusations was to see mr. cuomo punished by cnn, that may explain his unwarranted termination. cuomo previously going on air to deny claims of advising his brother in the aftermath of his resignation as new york's governor. take a listen. >> i never attacked, nor encouraged anyone to attack any woman who came forward. i never made calls of to the press about my brother's situation. >> reporter: now, former cnn anchor brooke baldwin is calling on the network to make a meaningful change. >> i would like to see cnn put a woman in that 9:00 p.m. spot. not me. i moved on. but there are plenty of brilliant women they can choose from. >> reporter: janice dean responding to the news by saying she is glad the cuomo brothers comedy hour has finally been canceled. she joinses us this hour for more reaction. carley, ben, back to you. carley: thank you so much for that. and starting today, all international air travelers entering the u.s. must provide a negative covid test taken within one day of boarding flights, regardless of vaccine status. up until now, fliers were required to show tests within three days of flying. according to the cdc, the shortened testing window aims to, quote, provide less opportunity to develop infection with the omicron variant prior to arrival in the united states. benjamin: also starting today, the biden administration will reinstate the trump era remain in mexico policy. migrants will be sent back to mexico to wait while their asylum claims are considered. the biden administration abolished the program in june but missouri and texas argued the policy was ended unlawfully. the supreme court upheld the state's argument. former president trump introduced the policy in 2017. that -- a 2019. that resulted in 100,000 fewer border apprehensions in may of that year. well, texas attorney general ken paxton says he doesn't anticipate the biden administration will change their stance on immigration and he is bashing the double standard between illegal immigrants and a american citizens. >> we have a situation where the federal government, the biden administration is encouraging people to cross the border, knowing full well that they have covid, not vaccinating them and not testing them and i believe on purpose. they don't want to know they have covid, then they can transport them secretly all over the country. i don't know how you explain that other than say they really don't care about covid and they certainly want as many people crossing the border as possible, even if they have covid. benjamin: the latest border figures from october show migrant encounters are up nearly 130% compared to last year. ♪ carley: president biden ordering all u.s. flags to fly at half staff following the death of long-time senator and former republican presidential candidate, bob dole. dole was a world war ii hero and beloved lawmaker, serving our country for nearly 80 years. he represented kansas in the senate for almost three decades before running at the top of the republican ticket in 1996. in february, dole announced he was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer and was receiving treatment. he is survived by his wife, elizabeth and daughter, robin. dole was 98 years old and he will be missed by many, ben, both republicans and democrats. all right, the time is now eight minutes after the hour. jen psaki is blaming

as a surge of brazen smash and grab robberies take hold in major cities. carley: brooke sigman as residents and city officials blame soft on crime policies for the spike in crime. >> reporter: the crime crisis is alarming residents and retailer as bands of smash and grab thieves descend on the cities. some point to bad policy as many say the spike in crime appears to be organized. >> bad law and bad policy is driving the most recent spike in crime we're seeing in los angeles. >> reporter: a former convict said he felt safer during his life of crime after his oakland cannabis dispensary was ransacked last month. listen to this. >> i was safer selling weed on the streets of oakland than i'm and a selling it legally. that's a problem. that's the reality i'm living in right now. carley: progressive congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez is taking heat for dismissing evidence what that crimes are organized. she said a lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out. but retail leaders say ocasio-cortez is ignoring blatant facts with one group saying the congresswoman has no idea what she is talking about and if she's not concerned with organized theft an increasingly violent attacks on retail employees she should just say that and gop lawmakers agree her remarks are disrespectful of crime victims including a security officer who was killed by armed robbers in oakland last month. congressman jim banks calling ocasio-cortez's comments tone deaf and offensive. the white house says the justice department and fbi are stepping in to assist the embattled cities but retailers remain on high alert. benjamin: brooke, thank you very much. and joining us now to continue this is doug hikeen, former new york stay assemblyman, founder of americans against anti-a anti-semitism. you heard what aoc said and you heard the response from walgreens who said she doesn't know what she's talking about. we've seen the stats. we've spoken to people in law enforcement and district attorneys. is she just not aware of what's going on or does she not consider these crimes seem to be a -- either seem to be a mistake. >> aoc is out of control. i don't think she's living on this planet. facts don't matter. she doesn't want to be confused with facts. all she's interested in is defund the police, close the prisons down, defund the prisons. i think it's time to defund aoc. she's a danger. i really think she's a danger. these crimes that are being committed, there are real victims out there. the bail reform that she supports where criminals walk out before the police officer finishes the paperwork. it's ridiculous. causing new victims out there. it is really out of control and i think aoc, you know, republicans are speaking out on this. where are people from my democratic party, are they blind? maybe aoc is blind. clearly, she doesn't see it. where are the others in the democratic party to stand up and defend the innocent people of this country who are being victimized by criminals? benjamin: it's not just the smash and grabs she's denying. you said in the past she never raises her voice about the rising number of anti-semetic crimes either. >> absolutely. missing in action. she chooses what she's going to speak out about and it is a really sad commentary on aoc. you know, she's a big heroine to a lot of people. she is a disaster to the average american. her policies and the things she advocates and the fact that so many democrats are fearful of her and the radical left of the democratic party, when good people are silent, democrats i'm talking about, then we are in real trouble and that is exactly what's going on. why is it only republicans? where are the democrats? where are the moderate democrats who watch on television what's going on in this country, crime out of control in new york, in los angeles, other cities all over america. victims all over america. aoc doesn't care about victims. she cares about the criminals. benjamin: i want to get your views on another topic, related to this. this is jen psaki, blaming the spike in crime on covid. take a listen. >> so when a huge group of criminals organizes themselves and they want to go loot a store, a cvs, nordstrom, home depot, until the shelves are clean, you think that's because of the pandemic? >> i think a root cause in a lot of communities is the pandemic, yes. benjamin: it's strange because i don't think we've seen the similar spike in states like florida or texas that don't have democratic-led governors. what do you say? >> this administration is out of control. this administration, you know, you've got to blame, you blame trump, you blame the pandemic. why don't they look in the freaking mirror? they are responsible. benjamin: what needs to change? what needs to change? >> what needs to change is the republicans getting elected in 2022, taking over the house, taking over the senate. i mean, that's the sad reality. there's nothing -- look, president biden is literally asleep, whether he's sleeping or not, he's asleep. when i watch him, i'm depressed. i'm sad to watch the weakness of our president. nobody takes him seriously except for die hard democrats. it is a sad reality that we are living in that the reality of what's going on out there, the biden administration is missing in action, plain and simple. benjamin: thanks very much. we have to leave it there. we appreciate you coming on, sir. >> thank you so much. carley: the time is 19 minutes after the hour. chris cuomo's firing from -- comes after a long and troubling list of scandals surrounding the former cnn anchor and his brother who just lost his own job as the governor of new york. for our own janice dean the story is personal and she's been demanding accountability for nearly two years. janice joins us, coming up next. picking your health insurance coverage isn't something you want to play games with. hope ya got dental. and that's why i love

autismspeaks.org. carley: the cuomo show is over, cnn officially terminating chris cuomo after new allegations of sexual misconduct surface against the network's former star. joining us now, janice dean, fox news senior meteorologist and very good friend. janice, good morning. you have an op-ed out at foxnews.com where you talk about it. i want to read a little bit of what you say. you say had they both done the job they were hired to do, this day where they are now both out of work would never have come. strong words that i think many people would agree with. >> right. he's supposed to be a journalist or a reporter and he lied to his audience and lied to us. you know, beginning with the fact that he defended his brother very early on. i mean, the reason why i -- i was going to remain quiet about my husband's situation where we lost both of his parents. it was very personal, deeply personal. my husband is not a person that likes to broadcast his personal issues. but seeing his brother and chris cuomo on several nights during this pandemic when people are dying, literally bodies are piling up outside of nursing homes, joking around who is their mom's favorite son, the love gov, that's coming back to bite him a little bit and then not talking about the issues that we wanted to know about, the thousands of deaths, the nursing homes. i remember seeing both of them with a giant q-tip and that's when my grief turned to rage and i thought these guys can't get away with this any longer. i have a story to tell and i'm going to do it because thousands don't have a voice. carley: i think you make such a great point there. the fact that the sexual harassment scandal, that's the thing that led to both of their terminations. but the nursing home scandal is even worse and in november the new york state assembly, many of whom were protecting governor cuomo up until the bitter end, they completed their investigation and they found that, and i quote, that he was not fully transparent regarding the number of nursing home residents who died as a result of covid-19. you and i and everybody else could have said that. they only revealed that after they had nothing to lose. does that bother you? >> of course it does. there's other investigations that i think will prevail in the next few weeks and i thank attorney general latisha james for releasing that information in january. because i was ready to give up the fight. i remember this time last year i thought to myself their voices are louder than mine, i don't know if i can do it anymore. then she dropped the ag report that said he was covering up the numbers. why was he doing that? well, we know, he was trying to sell $5.2 million book. carley: chris cuomo, there is a new allegation of sexual misconduct against him. we don't know who the accuser is. her laurie leased a statement saying the reason she came forward is hearing the hypocrisy of chris cuomo's on air words, my client retained counsel to report his serious sexual misconduct allegation against her. he is denying this allegation but it sounds like there could be some sort of possible legal fight on this front. what's your reaction to all of this? >> listen, for years we heard about chris cuomo, his bullying behavior, just like his brother and some of the sexual allegations against him, when he was working for abc. carley: there was an abc executive that came out that said that chris cuomo touched her inappropriately and he apologized for it. >> when you hear stories about someone coming up and grabbing someone's behind, what kind of individual does a that had? it's someone that has gotten away with it for several years, i think. carley: do you think cnn acted appropriately how they handled this. he ultimately got fired. what's your reaction to how it played out. >> it should have happened sooner but i think this one was the final nail in the coffin. i don't think we're done with it yet. i think there will be more stories coming out about chris cuomo. the brothers have gotten away with this kind of behavior for too long. carley: if you think about it, over the past year, last year it was still governor cuomo and he had the -- >> still revered. carley: $5.2 million book deal and emmy, chris cuomo was the number one cnn anchor and now they're both out of a job. that must be a whirl wind experience for you. what sort of lessons have you learned throughout the whole process. >> sometimes you have to speak up, even though maybe the rest of the world is against you, the media didn't cover this story. we did, fox news, thank goodness, had they gave me a platform to talk about this. they put their trust in me. when the truth is on your side and when you stand up for something good, eventually other people will stand up with you. carley: i think that's called speaking truth to power and something you certainly do on a day-to-day basis. janice, thank you so much. >> love you. carley: love you too. benjamin. benjamin: thanks, carley. the time is 20 minutes -- 29 minutes after the hour. a san francisco kick out uniformed police officers for allegedly making the staff uncomfortable. if you're waiting for an apology, you won't be happy with the owner's response. plus. >> the company made a mistake over the past one or two decades to farm out manufacturing of all these essential supplies and that is exactly why texas is leading the way. benjamin: once again, texas is taking matters into its own hands to help clean up the biden administration mess, cheryl casone has the details. ♪ walk this way. ♪ walk this way. cabenuva is the only once-a-month, complete hiv treatment for adults who are undetectable. cabenuva helps keep me undetectable. it's two injections, given by a healthcare provider once a month. hiv pills aren't on my mind. i love being able to pick up and go. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions post-injection reactions, liver problems,...and depression. if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. with once-a-month cabenuva, i'm good to go. ask your doctor about once-monthly cabenuva. carley: here's a new one, amid a surge in crime, san francisco is suspending a planned cannabis tax to help dispensaries compete with illegal drug dealers. the city supervisor telling the san francisco examiner in part, cannabis businesses are struggling under the weight of out-of-control retail theft. san francisco needs to do more to protect the businesses before we hit them with a new tax. the tax will be suspended until at least the end of next year. wow. benjamin: and the owners of a san francisco restaurant now apologizing for denying service to several on duty police officers. in a statement posted on instagram, the owners of the restaurant writing, quote, we hope this will be a teachable moment for us as we repair and continue to build bridges with the sfpd. these are stressful times and we handled this badly. the owners previously say staff was, quote, uncomfortable with the officers being armed in the restaurant but they added they will continue to deny service to any armed customer no matter what their job is. carley: we handled it badly but we're still not going to let you in. the fda is in the early stages of potentially use rioting a omicron -- authorizing an omicron specific vaccine. benjamin: all traveler must provide a negative covid test within one day of flying. cheryl casone has all the latest. >> cdc director says the fda is looking to fast track an omicron specific vaccine as the variant has already been reported in at least 15 states, if not more at this point. this morning, possibly 17. it's unclear if current vaccines are going to be effective against the variant. she says the best weapon is for americans to get vaccinated to stop the spread. today, as you mentioned, new international travel restrictions are going to go into effect. all passengers have to take a covid test within one day of their departure to the u.s. regardless of vaccination status. up to this point it was three days. they're shortening the window. carley: good news for america coming out of texas. cheryl: amid the global chip shortage which affected particularly the automakers, texas' governor said the lone star state will be the home of semiconductor manufacturing. >> those semiconductors will help in the supply chain process but the state of texas economy is growing and thriving and businesses are moving here that are growing here because texas in the land of economic opportunity and innovation. we've been open 100%. there are no vaccine mandates or mask mandates and so it shows that we can remain open and help livelihoods. cheryl: south korea's samsung electronics last month announce plans to build a $17 billion semiconductor factory in taylor, texas. benjamin: i think there's one other story on a similar topic, an important one which we should be paying attention to, if we want to save christmas. what is it. cheryl: get those gifts in time. that's the question mark. so as many americans are worried about their christmas presents and that they may not arrive on time, small business owners are saying the best plan is to buy american. >> buying american is so important and we are trying our best during this very difficult time. our politicians have to get on board and start helping out here because we can't afford it any more. cheryl: this as the ports of los angeles and long beach have a backlog of ships waiting to unload. despite the creation of a supply chain disruption team, press secretary jen psaki from the pse white house cannot guarantee on time arrival of presents. president biden said it would be up to santa claus. i reached out to santa claus for comment on all of this, i have not heard back from the north pole just yet. carley: he's very busy but we know you have his phone number. benjamin: don't only buy american but buy in the small stores if you can as well. they're the ones that need it. cheryl: well said. carley: such a good point. absolutely. benjamin: the white house now facing a major foreign policy test. brand-new intelligence appears to show russia planning an alarming military offensive against ukraine. so what message does president biden need to send on his call with vladimir putin tomorrow? carley: plus, the fox all american christmas he tree is all lit up in red, white and blue following sunday night's tree lighting ceremony. next, abby

abby hornacek joins us now. a diplomatic boycott means athletes from america would be allowed to compete. >> if they choose. is it enough? that's yet to be seen. right now, it's not a full boycott. u.s. government officials aren't going but what will the athletes do, right? and look, this is an opportunity for the biden administration to finally show that had they can -- they are capable of a bold move that a lot of americans quite frankly have been waiting to see since joe biden took office and a lot of things boiled up for this to finally happen. you look back and you had them cracking down on the pro democracy protests in hong kong, its policieses towards tibet and taiwan, the handling of the peng shuai situation most recently and you heard enes kanter speak out about human rights abuses. carley: we do have sound from enes kanter, he was on with maria bartiromo yesterday, take a listen to what he had to say about a boycott of the 2022 beijing olympics. watch this. maria: what do you want to say to other athletes who are headed to beijing for the olympics in february? >> shame on them. you know, all the gold medals in the world that you can win is not more important than your values and principles. carley: abby, you have people like congressman mike waltz, he said that it's something like there being a concentration camp of uyghur muslims in the united states, do you think people would come here to have the olympics. it would never happen on u.s. soil. that's exactly what's happening in china. you have to wonder if athletes will compete in the olympics. >> and you hear enes kanter freedom now. carley: love the name change. >> you hear him speak out but you see him put actions behind his words. and look, the idea of a full boycott is nothing new. we saw it in 1980 after the u.s. refused to compete in the summer olympics in moscow because of the late 1979 soviet union invasion of afghanistan. so if we see something like that in other countries start to pull out of the beijing olympics, i think that that might send a stronger message. i mean, this is still a message to be sent but maybe we need to take stronger action. carley: you have to wonder about ratings, olympic ratings were down for the last olympics and if it's in china i would imagine there would be a lot of americans who just won't watch because of the location and good for them for not. it's unfortunate for the athletes because they work so hard. >> that by the way is part of what makes this country the greatest in the world is because our freedom of speech and the way americans rally behind other's freedom of speech. carley: well said. last night you hosted the all american christmas tree lighting. for those who missed it. it was so beautiful. take a look at this. >> right there, you're with lawrence jones, in front of the big tree. and it is now on fox nation, right? if you missed it last night. >> absolutely. and that tree was just so gorgeous. they did a wonderful job. the team took about 21 hours to assemble the tree, there were 10,000ornaments. santa was there. it was a lot of fun. i hope people stop by fox square. carley:s there's other christmas related content on fox nation as well. >> yeah, i was part of two different -- one i'm filming tomorrow but two different christmas specials, one was at the biltmore estate in asheville, north carolina. they do such a wonderful job. then i go to brooklyn to one of the most well-known light shows across the country. people put out their lights in brooklyn, spend around $10,000 on their electricity bill. carley: that's in brooklyn, new york? i didn't know brooklyn could look like that. >> you should come with me tomorrow. carley: i'm going to watch it on fox nation. always working. she is still working for christmas. right now, you could get 35% off any fox nation yearly plan, you could save money as well. got it. very important to save those dollars. abby, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you, carley. carley: we appreciate it. ben, over to you. benjamin: well, big question. does the media treat president biden worse than president trump?

>> bret, i regret that we lost 13 of our finest at abbey georgia tech. abby gate. i regleat we lost 10 civilians at air rant strike. carley: taking a moment to think about what he regrets from the exit afghanistan. what about the americans still stranded behind enemy lines? >> committee member florida congressman michael waltz joins us now. congressman, awkward, awkward 6 second delay there while he had to think about the regrets he had. no mention of abandoning allies or edge boldening enemies or anything like that. what do you make of his response? >> i was there. and it was just gut wrenching to hear because right after he said he had those two regrets, he then pivoted right to the administration's talking point of saying this was the greatest air evacuation in history. and we all know now that yes, they got a lot of people out but a lot of them were the wrong people. they weren't vetted. and the people that had sacrificed so much are still there on top of american green card holders, american permanent residents that so many veterans groups have been staying up 24/7 and still trying to get out doing what our government failed to do and the leader of one of those groups was with me. he walked out of the speech he was so disgusted at hearing that from our defense secretary. carley: congressman, you are one of the people that are still trying to get people out of afghanistan. do you have an update ona front and what is it like to live in afghanistan right now under taliban rule. >> these people are being hunted down as we speak. you know, the one of our interpreters who literally stood and took a bullet standing next to me is still trying to get his brothers out. they also stood and fought with us. the taliban is repeatedly coming to their village and just yesterday morning, came to the house next to theirs and disappeared four males. they are gone. never to be heard from again. so, this is happening in realtime. and i got to tell you these veterans groups and me included, we will never forgive the biden administration for this and we will never let it go. >> ben: congressman, i wanted to get your thoughts on theory here. shared a post the media treat biden worse than trump. here is part of that op-ed. fiscal note combs through more than 200 found articles. tens of millions of words and 65 news web sites biden's press for the last four months has been as bad as and for a time worse than the coverage trump received for the same four months of 2020. is it the coverage that's been bad or is it really just poll numbers? >> well, you know, it's the policies that have been bad. it's the self-inflicted wounds. i mean, we have gone from energy independence, energy dependents, gone from a booming economy to, you know, gas lines and booming inflation. and we have gone from peace in the middle east to an access of terrorism with hamas launching rockets on israel. on the march and taliban caliphate. to say it was worse than trump is just laughable. we all remember the harvard study that showed trump had 90% negative coverage for years. but, really where the press was so different was under trump was just the lies that they pushed and that they promulgated the russia gate, the steele dossier, the ukraine call and to have those folks on like clapper and brennan and schiff and not hold them to account when we knew they were lying on national television and to the american but then they went behind doors and under oath they told a different story and that's not happening to biden. carley: no. it certainly isn't. we do want to get to this very important topic because former republican senator presidential candidate bob dole died at the age of 98 yesterday. he is being remembered fondly on both sides of the aisle. what are your reflections on his life. >> these world war ii heroes, these greatest generation heroes, are all heroes of mine. and i looked up to him in so many ways. just as a man politically. but, you know, somebody who is a servant leader and, you know, that greatest generation all came together. carley: congressman, thank you so much. ♪ ♪ >> the trump era remain in mexico policy will restart. >> the biden administration abolished the program in june. >> lawsuit fought by texas against the biden administration where a federal judge ruled in our favor. >> smash and grab robberies running rampant. >> congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez said a lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out. >> is she living with her head buried in the sand. >> set to announce diplomatic boycott of the 2022 olympics. >> shame on the organizational committee same bed
