passed away from the coronavirus. also breaking right now, a setback for president trump and his continued denial of the presidential election results. a federal judge in pennsylvania just a little while ago throwing out a lawsuit filed by the president's campaign that sought to invalidate millions of mail-in votes. we'll go live to the white house to update you on what's going on over there. the president once again claiming there was widespread voter fraud in a series of tweets. once again today the president busy on twitter. he spent part of the day on one of his golf courses, choosing that do that instead of attending a virtual g20 session. didn't do that, played golf instead. let's go to jeremy diamond. germany, tell us more about the latest legal blow to the trump campaign's fight in pennsylvania after more than two dozen losses in courts across the country. >> well, wolf, this was another attempt by the trump campaign toe prevent a key battle ground state from certifying the results to have election. in this case it's the state of pennsylvania where the trump campaign was trying to do this. federal judge matthew brand was thrown the case out of court. let me read you part of this scathing opinion from this federal judge. he writes one might expect that when seeking stuff an outcome a plaintiff would come armed with compelling legal arguments and proof. that has not happened. instead this court has been presented be strained legal arguments without merit and speculative accusations unpled in the operative complaint and unsupported by the evidence. the rest of the opinion reads very similarly, certainly not a dispassionate opinion but one that makes clear that what the trump campaign was arguing, including rudy guiliani, who argued in this case in federal court. you are hearing what president trump is saying, he's alleging all these widespread voter fraud and his spokes people and attorneys are saying similar things in the court of public opinion. rudy guiliani did not make a specific allegation of fraud in this case and he said sod himself. even what they are arguing, wolf, it's becoming very clear just isn't supported by the facts. >> yeah. these league arguments are being thrown out left and right. the president's latest tweet, jeremy comes after new pressure comes from a rather powerful republican member of congress in the calm leadership. >> as this process has dragged out -- we're more than two weeks out from the election now, you're starting to see some splintering in the republican party. which by and large has stuck by this. as he's tried to subvert. you were beginning to see some republican lawmakers who said joe biden, president-elect joe biden should be allowed to get some transition briefings, even at these court cases play out in the courts. you're seeing one member of house republican leadership, in this case liz cheney, essentially say it's time to put up or shut up. here's what she says. if the president cannot prove these claims or demonstrate that they would change the election results, he should fulfill his oath to the united states by respecting the sanctity of our electoral process." making clear that if the president has major allegations of voter fraud, he should present those in court and get on with it. clearly that's not what the president's team is doing. seems their main objectives is to undermine joe biden's legitimacy as the 46th president of the united states. >> should follow liz cheney's advice, that would be smart. as the president keeps focus on trying to overturn the election, the pandemic is simply railing across the country. today california posted its highest number of new cases ever, more than 15,000. paul is joining us from los angeles right now. paul, so first of all, what can you tell us how the state of california is responding to this new and very, very dangerous surge. >> well, wolf, it's two wronged. here in los angeles county, aggressive covid-19 testing and tracy, you can see behind me the parking lot of dodger stadium, a beautiful sunset and thousands and thousands an thousands of car lights in the last few days alone they've had great numbers of people come through here. on another front there is a new curfew going into effect in almost all of california. at 10:00 p.m. west coast time tonight you will no longer be allowed to gather outside or inside restaurants or bars or other large gatherings, let's say at a park or so. the idea of the curfew which begins at 10:00 is laser focussed on younger people who were going out getting together, they don't want to see them clustering up. the curfew will stepped till 5:00 in the morning. this doesn't mean that you can't go out to the grocery store, grab gas, or perhaps go for a walk, take the dog for a walk. this curfew is in effect and it will have an economic impact as bars and restaurants have to occur they'll their hours again. >> california experiencing massive lines at food banks. this is so sad to see here in the united states so many millions of americans are having such tough times simply putting food on the table for themselves and their kids. what did you see and hear today in los angeles? >> there were a number of food giveaways in los angeles, and in korea town at the first unitarian church, we saw more than a thousand people on foot walk up to grab their box of food. it was absolutely stunning. talked to some of the people, for example, not all of them had lost their jobs, but you talk about the economic impact of the pandemic and what it's done to people, one person who was a housekeeper was telling me, yes, i still have a job, but i went from five days a week or six if i volunteered for extra hours down to three, so they're just struggling to make ends meet and they are so greatful ahead of thanksgiving that someone would step up like these volunteers did and hand out these boxes of food. many volunteers urging people across the country to give and donate to local food pantries, wolf. >> so, so many people hungry in this united states. i want to bring in former presidential candidate andrew yang. thanks for joining us. so many americans are hungry right now. they need financial help. what do you think -- what is the main reason congress, the house and the senate, has not acted to get such desperately needed relief to these folks. >> it's heart breaking, wolf, and in a word, it's politics. go it's mitch mcconnell who right now is holding the line saying he does not want to consider a relief bill that climbs past a certain point. and to me, we have to come together and get a deal done before year end. there are 12 million americans whose unemployment benefits are going to expire at the end of december and you can imagine what their situation is going to look like in every one of those households if a relief bill is not passed in did coming days or weeks. >> do you still hold out hope that congress will hammer out some sort of desperately needed stimulus relief bill before the president-elect joe biden takes office on january 20th? >> i talked to a member of congress who was pessimistic, wolf, but at the same time they need to come together and pass a bill by december 11th that enables the continuing operation of the government and there is some hope that at that point they will be able to extend unemployment benefits, extend the eviction moratorium and the extension of certain loan payments past december because people realize there is a cliff coming at year end for many, many americans. they're going to have to hammer out a deal to continue to fund the government. so there is still hope. >> if there's no stimulus package approved during this so-called lame duck session, should that be priority number one for the incoming biden administration? >> it should be. there are hundreds of thousands of small businesses that right now may be closing their doors forever. joe knows this. many, many members of congress are hearing it from their constituents. this should happen well before the new administration takes power, but if we're at that point come january and february, this needs to be the order of business, number one, because at that point, americans would have been waiting for nine months in many cases. >> andrew, you tweeted this week. let me ready to you. put it up on the screen. if we ask you to stay home, we should also send you money so you can do so. without those funds, do you think any push for people to stay home during the thanksgiving holiday, the upcoming christmas, hanukkah holidays, is that all that koomd to fail if people don't have money? >> i talked to small business owners, wolf, who feel like they're being put in an impossible situation, where in order to have any source of income, they need to open their doors, and in some cases, that means pushing against some of the public health safety guidelines that are out there, so my tweet said it all. you can tell a lot of people agreed with me, that if we're going to ask you to stay at home, then we need to put enough of a lifeline out there so you're not concerned about paying the represent, paying for food and fume. this is common sense. many other countries have done this. it's heartbreaking that our country's legislators have not been able to deliver in the same way that other countries have. >> is that real from a political standpoint? you think that's doable? >> it's looking less doable in the near term. i remain optimistic that cash relief is going to be front and center, because 74% of americans are for it at this point, including a majority of both parties and every economist who looks at this says that cash in people's hands is the best bang for your buck. i spoke to one of the chief economists under the obama administration and he and i agreed that some kind of cash stimulus in people's hands was something that most economists would advocate for at this point. >> you're in atlanta, georgia, right foul. usually you're in new york, but you're working to try to get out the democratic vote for the upcoming run off races there. you're in atlanta, i know that. two republican super p.a.c.s are said to spend money in georgia. are you worried that democrats may be at a funding disadvantage going into these two senate contests? >> the republicans have sent a thousand operatives, $32 million. but you have to look at the fact that this state just went to joe. they just audited the votes and it still went to joe, so i think there's going to be a lot at stake. there's a ton of enthusiasm on both sides. certainly, it's a thrill to be here in georgia talking to voters. we have a number of talks planned, all save and socially distanced. there's a lot of enthusiasm on the ground here because everybody knows that the senate is at stake and if the we might see relief coming out of congress because mitch would no longer be majority leader. he'd be the minority. >> thank you for joining us. we'll stay in close touch with you. you'll update us on what's going on. thank you so much for joining us. >> love that. you can tell by the peach behind my head that i'm in georgia. notice that visual touch. >> atlanta, one of my favorite cities. all right. be careful over there. we'll stay in close touch. stay safe. andrew yang, appreciate it very much. as the u.s.

did you expect it to go this way? >> i always worry when we have an outcome that none of us want and none of us wanted. you know, did we miss a communication, did we say it the wrong way? and i think really that's part of the reason i went out into the states is really understand what they were hearing when we were speaking and really being in a dialogue and a partnership to really understand how we could do this better together. >> dr. saline gunner is joining us right now. she's a member of president-elect coronavirus advisor board. dr. gander, thanks for joining us. i want to get your reaction to breaking news coming in right now. the u.s. federal drug administration has now authorized regeneron's antibody cocktail to treat covid-19 in what are described as high risk patients with mild to moderate disease. let me read to you from the statement from the fda, doctor. the cocktail reduced covid-19 related hospitalizations and emergency room visits in some patients. as we all remember, this is the cocktail that president trump took when he was dealing with covid-19 at the walter reed medical facility there. what's your reaction to this news about the regeneron antibody cocktail? >> this is great news, wolf. it's not unexpected. but this is an important tool in our toolbox. it's important to understand. this is being approved for patients with mild to moderate disease. generally people who are very early in the course of disease. these are not patients who are on a ventilator. this is not a hail mary kind of treatment. something critical to understand is that this kind of mono clono antibody treatment that eli lilly and others are developing, this is not going to work unless you scale up testing dramatically because you need to pick up people early in the course of their disease to we can treat them early in the course of their disease for this to have an impact. >> you can get this monoclonal antibody treatment at home. you can get it before you go in the hospital, right? >> yes, that's right. we have companies -- me as an infectious disease doctor, i work with some of these people. if we need somebody who needs long-term anti-biotics, there are infusions of drugs you can take in the home or in a specialized doctors office or a hospital. this doesn't require hospitalization. >> we got a statement from dr. len erd shleifer from regeneron. he put out a statement. let me get your reaction. regeneron expects to have covid 2 treatment doses ready for approximately 80,000 patients by the end of november, approximately 200,000 patients by the first week of january and approximately 300,000 patients in total by the end of january 2021. he said and i'm still reading despite incredible efforts demand may exceed supply initially. they obviously have a game plan. they know the numbers are up creasing. they know this monoclonal cocktail will help them not get really, really sick. they got to have enough ready toe go. >> this is going to be a challenge. we have on the order of 150, 200,000 new infections a day. so if that's the total number of doses that you have, how are you going to figure out who needs those doses now and why. so we're going to have to have some pretty, you know, specific detailed guidance about how to kargt those doses to people who are most likely to benefit before they really get sick, so you're having to predict who might get sick in order for this to have maximum benefit. >> it seems to have worked on the president when he was at walter reed he took this and obviously prevented it from getting really, really sick even at his age, 74 years old. >> i think that's a great point. he may be in a sense the prototype person we would be aiming at. obesity, cardiovascular disease, and so those are the kinds of criteria we're going to use to help target this to the right people who will benefit most. >> at the same time, pfizer and buyon tech submitted request for emergency use authorization for their coronavirus vaccine. do you think that request should be approved? >> well, without seeing the thousands of pages of data that they have submitted to the fda, it's hard to say. that's really the job of the fda scientists and the external advisory board that they are going to be convening to review the thousands of pages of data and to figure out if it should be approved. but i fully trust that that process, that scientific review process will not be corrupted. the biden-harris team has been very proactive about requesting the fda to really do their normal vetting, because we really want to make sure that the american people can trust that this advantage seep, if it rees emergency use authorization, is both effective and safe. >> i'm hoping that president trump will allow the outgoing members offauci, dr. birks, dr. redfield and others to start cooperating with you, the incoming coronavirus council so we can get started with a running start. thanks for everything you're doing. thanks for joining us. >> my pleasure. >> the decision by president trump's administration to draw down thousands of u.s. troops in iraq and afghanistan. why a bipartisan pair of lawmakers who served in the military in iraq and afghanistan are now calling the move by the president very risky. they're standing by. a republican and a democrat. we'll discuss when we return. ten to give you the protein you need with less of the sugar you don't.

>> well, the risks are huge, wolf. let's not forget we went to afghanistan in the first place to prevent terrorism. that's still a threat. we are completely undermining our efforts to bring peace to the region. we have a civil war rampant with weapons which is a recipe for disaster. we're just giving up everything with nothing in return. what trump is saying he will do here completely under mines our troops, completely undermines everything they fought for, completely under mines our diplomats and what is he getting? absolutely nothing. >> congressman, what do you think? >> i agree with everything seth said and beyond that, 2500 troops is just enough troops to protect themselves. it's hard for me to see what kind of force they can patrol at 2500. why now? the best thing that the president could do, the plight thing, the right thing is to allow president-elect biden to make the decision on the future of u.s. role in afghanistan and not to put him in a position where he is either going to have to increase troops when he comes into office, which will be a whole story in itself or pull them all out and basically bear the blame for what follows. we saw this happen in iraq in 2011 and it's frightening. >> let's talk about iraq and afghanistan. what's your fear specifically with the taliban, al qaeda. in iraq there's potential problems there. what's your immediate fear? >> well, in some ways the best way to put it is that there's nothing worse we can do than to bring the troops home, give up everything that they fought for and then turn around and send them back. we cannot repeat this mistake that happened in iraq. we've fought overseas. there's no one that understands how important it is to bring the troops home more than we do. but we've got to bring them home for good. that means pulling out with a plan. if there's one thing we've learned in the last 20 years, it's much harder to get out of wars than to get in them. the president has no plan. there's nothing in exchange for this withdrawal. as adam said himself, it's setting up the conditions for biden to just have to turn around and put more americans back into harm's way. >> it seems to me, congressman kinzinger that there's plenty of criticism of this decision by the president from your sfelo republicans, not just democrats, maybe more so from republicans who are worried about the president's decision. he promised when he took office and years ago he would give interviews and tell me why are we in iraq, why are we in afghanistan? we got to get out of there and if i was elected, i would immediately withdraw those troops. seems he's trying to live up to a commitment he made to get the troops out of there. >> you can look at it i this way. but in 2016, his biggest commitment was to defeat isis. this pull-out will do a couple of things. it's going to give room for isis to plan and grow. we saw that in 2011. afghanistan obviously has a natural tendency to do that when it's lawless. it gives him that. to all of this, which you look at what's happening, i say why are you making this decision now? what's the point of it and quite honest he, what is this going to do to isis's recruiting efforts when they can turn around to anybody and say look, we made the u.s. run again. i think rand paul and his foreign policy, kind of a trump whisperer on this has gotten through to a point where we're in a bad position. >> how significant is it the fact that you are working together as democrat and republican. it's one example and god knows we could use more, of bipartisan cooperation. >> one thing you see in congress, a lot of times veterans will come together when it comes to issues of national security, when it comes to doing the right thing to protect our country and to live up to the promise that we have made to do everything we can to support our troops. sadly, the president doesn't get that at all. let's not forget this is a draft dodging president who's giving gifts to putin in russia. he's giving gifts to china, north korea. he's giving gifts to iran. they're right of the border from afghanistan. now he's giving a gift to the taliban. look, this is right out of trump's playbook as adam said, and it's terrible policy. it's foreign to talk about what we should be doing. we should be keeping a minimal counter terror force in afghanistan, not just a force that's beg enough to protect itself. we should be withdrawing additional troops when we get something in return from the taliban. we've gotten nothing. it's exactly the opposite of what trump is doing. >> to both of you, thanks for your service. we are grateful to both of you. thanks for your cooperation right now as well. we'll continue this conversation down the rolled. appreciate it very, very much. as cases surge here in the united states to record levels, the cdc is urging americans not to travel over thanksgiving. but what about college students trying to get home for the holidays?

>> our surveillance testing indicates that the rates of infection are extremely low in our student population, less than .02 of 1%. because of the safety protocols, we put in -- because they've been conducting themselves with great care throughout the semester, the students. i think they'll carry that sense of responsibility back home with them. our basic rule is to take nothing more granted. we're using several tactics. first of all, we're conducting exit testing for students. many states are now requiring negative tests for returning students and other visitors. we plan for testing and for quarantine. all of the students who are leaving campus are required to inform us of all the departure plans. once the students leave they won't be allowed back to the campus until the spripg spring semester and we'll perform entry testing at that point. >> do you have a place in case student infection rates are too high after the holiday break, let's say? >> we do have plenty of room for isolation and quarantine of students. we'll be doing entry testing as we did this past semester. we've learned a lot. we feel we're well prepared for this spring, but again, we're taking nothing for granted. we kept an eye on weekly totals, we adjusted our plans. we employed teams of students and staff. it's the duke compact. we monitored how we were doing. we were surviving and advancing day by day and week by week with the understanding that we were just one large gathering, perhaps, away from a potential outbreak. so we know that asymptomatic carriers can spread this virus rapidly. we're taking extraordinary care. we do have plans in place, as i say, to isolate students. we have wonderful medical care both of our student health system and through our university health system. >> the students are going home for thanksgiving. when are they supposed to come back to campus? >> we're wrapping up our semester now. we advanced our fall kmeser and condensed it so that the students could study, finish the semester, return home and they won't return until the middle of january for the spring term. >> we wish you all the best. thank you for everything you're doing. vincent price, president of duke university, good luck. >> thanks so much, woman. >> good luck to the students faculty at duke and everywhere else. sweden has relied on a relaxed strategy to try to fight the virus but with a new surge, doctors there now say they are fed one the government strategy. we'll update you on what's going on. ♪ you can count on me ♪ i'll be home for christmas ♪ if only in my dreams ♪ ♪ tonight... my dreams i'll be eating roasted cauliflower tacos with spicy chipotle sauce.
