Off of coordination between twitter and facebook and those folks. So thats going to be great. Thank you very much for joining us on this very busy lets see its a tuesday. And its cold here in new york city. We are currently under a freeze watch, believe it or not, ainsley. Brian thats why we wore the vest. Steve looks good. Ainsley looks good, brian. Thanksgiving is around the corner. Dont forget to buy your turkey theyre going to run out of those eventually. Brian are we allowed to have a thanksgiving . Ainsley in new york 10 or less they are saying. Steve thats right. Ainsley get to that in a minute. Georgia election official blames nearly 2600 uncounted ballots on human error. Hey, griff. Griff good morning. I got to cut into the thanksgiving chatter that hand countdown in the peach state is heating up. They have got until midnight tomorrow to finish counting in all 159 counties. In one of them, floyd cut, a major discovery, nearly 2600 ballots were not taled according to gabe sterling the director of elections for the state who explained how this could have happened. Listen. What apparently looks like is maybe a memory card from one of the early vote devices was not loaded. And normally that would be caught by, you know, checks and balances within a county, which is the reason the secretary feels like in this particular case this wasnt egregious and it wasnt discovered until we did this audit. Griff starling says 1r7b8g 863 for trump, 163 for biden. Giving the president a net positive 678 votes well short of the 14,000 he trails biden by. This as the president is sounding off on the recounts saying officials wont let the campaign look at signature matching. Calling on the governor to get involved. Yesterday georgias republican secretary of state brad wraps bd wrapsberger shot back. They were given the gbi signature match training process so they are trained at looking at signatures there is this raffensperger claiming that Lindsey Graham in a call involving signature matching pushed him to find ways to invalidate legal ballots. Graham calling the accusation, quote, ridiculous. Meanwhile out west, in nevada, a special election is called in a Clark County Commission race where a number of voter disprep is is far exceeded the margin of victory. 139 discrepancies where the democrat led by just 10 votes. The president now taking notice. Big victory moments ago in the state of nevada. Will all democrat county commissioner race on same ballot as president just turned out because of large scale voter discrepancy. Clark county officials do thought have confidence in their own election security. Major impact. Although the discrepancy does not appear to affect the president ial race because clark county has already certified the results for all races other than that one commissioner one. Brian, ainsley, steve . Brian thanks. We trial find out if the president is going to get anywhere in the georgia recount get an answer wednesday and do a recount in wisconsin and see if they make any progress in pennsylvania. Sooner or later joe biden believes he is going to be president of the United States. And thats what he is planning for. Yesterday he gave a Major Economic speech. At which time you thought you would see some give and some sense of this is where i would like to negotiate because at the very least is he going to have at the most is he going to have a 5050 senate. Even with the Vice President its not going to be there every you will single time all the votes. There was no give. He talked about a minimum wage. He talked about prounion with tech firms. They nodded. He is about to name an official to head up his treasury that is for reparations and he is talking about student loan forgiveness. And then when it came to compromise or any type of big picture, it was time for the reporters to ask a few questions. Would they approach any of this . Lets listen. What do you see is the biggest threat to your transition right now given President Trumps unprecedented attempt to obstruct and delay a smooth transfer of power . It doesnt appear that the president is going to going to come around any time soon and admit defeat. What are you going to do . What options do you have to try to ensure that you are ready to go on day one . I want to get your thoughts on the president s tweet. How did you interpret that and at the end of the day do you want him to concede . What is your message to republicans who are backing up the president s refusal to concede . What is your message to people who are considering, for example, getting together with their families and others for thanksgiving . Would you consider would you urge people to reconsider their plans . Brian so you had a bunch of questions that donald trump would have loved to have had at any point over the last four years. He probably had four like that in four years. It was questions all about President Trump steve, all about President Trump and about his unwillingness to concede as opposed to what do you think the 15 minute mum wage will do to families and businesses already stressed out. What about some type of compromise to a stimulus package. Why would you now go back into an iranian deal when they have nuclearized their arms and their program to a point way beyond everyones threshold . Steve do you remember when saturday night live did that parity of the president ial News Conference and they asked there was such an adoring press corps they at one point the question was mr. , president , i believe it was of barack obama, mr. President , can i get you a pillow . Because that is Going Forward perhaps a preview of what we are going to see when donald trump is no longer president and joe biden is the president in the briefing room, at least thats what joe concha says. Watch this. Whats a hardhitting question when you ask somebody about their poem or their world view or what they plan to do about x, y, z. First of the four of the five questions is about President Trump. Is he not conceding. What does that do for you moving forward. I get that completely. But, again, this is a preview of things to come over the next four years. Hospitality instead of hostile which we saw under the president. Steve i will say, this once again, i was speaking to the correspondent assigned to joe biden yesterday in delaware and once again they have a list of the news outlets they they are going to ask questions of. Fox news is never on the list. Ainsley. Ainsley yeah. I mean, its just thats what got me about this, steve. Is all the articles i have read about this say they preselected these reporters. So joe biden didnt even call on these individuals. You will have to at least hand it to donald trump for always taking questions. Steve from everybody. Ainsley no matter where he was. Exactly. He would ask the questions. Best of your recollection instead, his staffers, joe bidens staffers are hand selecting these people that they probably know are going to ask the easy questions. You remember the ice cream question Chris Stirewalt called that shamefully embarrassing. Last week at the First Press Conference as being elected as president elect, he got similar questions. Very easy questions, too. I think this is a taste of what we are going to see over the next four years if President Trump does concede. All right. So, the Democratic Party we talked about in this week and last week about the just the divide within the party and how they we called it the trojan horse or many people called it the projanuary horse many people get him elected and we will put our progressive ideas in his head and hopefully he will vote for some of our ideas. Now there is a divide within the party and they have to decide which direction they are going. Many of the conservative o more moderate democrats are blaming the progressives for losing a lot of their house seats. One of those is congresswoman Elissa Slotkin. She is from michigan she says, you know, what about us . What about midwesterners and southerners. Everyone in leadership positions is from california or new york. We need to be represented because your ideas are so progressive thats not how the rest of the country feels. So she says she wont support nancy pelosi as the speaker again. This is what she writes. I will not be voting for nancy pelosi. I believe, i just lost the prompter. Okay. I believe and can we roll it back a little bit . Guys can you read it . Brian yeah. Here we go. I believe we will need new leadership, i would love to see more midwesterners because if you look across the leadership, i respect these people but its new york and california. Ainsley do you want to finish up the final thought there . Ainsley you keep going. Oh, finish up with my thoughts . No, thats the end of it. Really quickly. Being from the south, and, you know, steve, you are from the midwest, brian, you are from long island. Long island is extremely conservative now. Brian almost in the water. Ainsley i appreciate that. Everyone needs to be represented. Nancy pelosi, if you look at what their records are look at Kamala Harris, she from california. She cosponsored the green new deal. She praised l. A. s mayor for slashing the lapds budget by 150 million, the Police Department there. And so this lady, congresswoman slotkin is saying there no accountability for the speaker and we should have won big. This defunding the police, this green new deal, those are issues that killed our members, she said, brian. Brian yeah. Yesterday as we move ahead. Lets take a look at the house and what has slotkin and others so concerned and democrats they were supposed to pick up at least a dozen seats. Instead they lost a dozen seats. So now they say this could end up being the slightest majority for any party since 1919. It is now 219 to 204. And the latest news is Burgess Owens takes the seat back to mia love barely lost to Michael Mcadams and that was two years ago. So Burgess Owens fights it out. Grinds it out. And becomes the congressman from utah. And it looks like hills opponent nick adams who temporarily has the seat left a concession speech on his voice mail which is classy. So, Burgess Owens, who got drafted by the jets but then went ahead to win the super bowl sorry, joel and went to the raiders, he is now in congress. He was not only able to have a great Business Career and athletic career now he is going to start this political career. If you talk about impactful congressman. My projection is he will be as impactful as jim jordan because he is going to make his voice known. Somebody else who is going to make their voice known is nicole mall talk kiss. She ran for governor and state rep now she won a seat in staten island. Here is what she said the g. O. P. Gained by getting so many seats but not in the majority. I think people in america are rightfully concerned about attempts to bring socialism to our nation. Whether it be the dismantling of our economy or defunding the police or concerns about abolishing ice or socialized medicine. People are saying wait a minute, this is not america. This was a referendum on what the socialist squad has been pushing and americans speaking out and saying you know what . We need to counter this and we are going to send people who are going to fight for our freedoms and ensure that we are the america that we love, not socialists. Brian yeah. And when i saw mark penroses story today what he gets from gains in the house and republicans have an excellent shot at holding the senate is america is mostly moderate there are 34 percent said they were conservative. 23 percent said they were liberal. For the most part americans are still right in the middle. Burgess owens by the way will be on with us in 38 minutes excuse me about 30 minutes and to talk about his victory. Another win for him and his career. Steve terrific. Meanwhile, we mentioned this at the top of the program, what is your plan for thanksgiving . Its interesting. Ohio State University did a poll and apparently a majority of americans are going to social distance and they are going to make sure that their guests, if they do have guests come in and less than 10 and things like that. They are going to make sure that everybody is safe. However, what is kind of puzzling is about 40 of americans are planning a big thanksgiving with more than 10 people. 38 . 27 say they will not have any social distancing at their event and even 20 say we wont turn away guests who actually have symptoms, which is kind of scary because we know how contagious this is. Nonetheless, here in new york state, the governor has said okay, if i are going to have thanksgiving, you can only have no more than 10 people. Thats it. Thats going to be the statewide limit. Heres the problem. How are they going to figure that out . Are they going to drive up and down streets . Are they going to count the cars . Are they going to watch at the Grocery Store hey have you five boxes of stove top stuffing in the patrol car lady, absolutely not. At least four sheriffs in new york state have already said we are not going to enforce that dumb rule. People are smart enough and resources are thin. Heres richard jardino, Fulton County sheriff. He was on with Fox Friends First a little earlier and he thinks this governors plan is not a good one. Its a turkey. The anxiety that this rule is causing is unbelievable. People believe that the governor and other executives want to use Law Enforcement as a tool to make them submit. When you try to authorize by executive order that we can come into somebodys house, count the people and take some sort of action, that remedy is greater than the wrong having people gather because, frankly, i have faith in people people in my community to use their intelligence, what they know about the covid and make a determination. Steve yeah. Hes being right. Just be smart. You know what the risks are. And they are substantial because its contagious and there are a lot of people who dont show any symptoms. In fact, in october, up north of the border in canada, they had their thanksgiving on october the 12th. And the officials there say that the nonchalant approach toward the covid is the reason canada is currently spiking, ainsley. Ainsley thats interesting. So, this sheriff, he is so funny. He said we have limited resources. We have to set priorities. So obtaining a search warrant to enter your home to see how many turkey or trophy few eaters are present is not a. There will be no tofu eaters at our house im just saying. Ainsley we are in new york. He represents new york. What is your announcement . Brian my announcement is im going to announce 10 finalists started with 5 and down to 10. Steve joe biden whittled his list down. Brian same way i found out i made a Varsity Soccer Team he posted and others had nowhere to go. Posting my list of top 10 people. Everyone else know you dont matter as much. Steve is this your way of telling ainsley and i we are not coming to your house . Brian unlikely. Can i name you alternates in case there is an injury . Ainsley i will be the first alternate. Seriously though, it is spreading and people do need to be safe but the sheriffs point is we can make our own decisions. Steve personal responsibility. Ainsley exactly. Brian i just love jim jordans tweet dont cancel thanksgiving and christmas cancel lockdowns. With that i would love to accept jillian meles. Jillian i just like steamy mashed potatoes. Brian plenty of carbs. Exactly. City and state leaders tightening coronavirus restrictions as cases surge. In iowa, residents are now required to wear a mask in public. While virginia tightens his its mask mandate and alcohol sales. All Indoor Dining is bad. Outdoor dining is limited to just four people from the same household. Meanwhile, california Governor Newsom apologizes for breaking his only lock down rules to attend the party. We are all human. We all fall short sometimes. I need to preach and practice not just preach. Newsom says if cases continue to rise a curfew could be implemented. Lets talk about extreme weather now. Hurricane iota slams nicaragua. Powerful winds up to 155 Miles Per Hour tear off roofs, blinding rain pounding the coast. In colombia a giant wave crashes against the shore hitting people by surprise. [screams] incredible video shows the u. S. Army reserve flying inside the eye yesterday when it was a category 5 hurricane. Overnight the u. S. Military hitting a critical milestone the Missile Defense agency intercepted a Ballistic Missile in space for the first time with a missile fired from a war ship at sea. This animation shows what the test looked like. The pentagon calling the test run an incredible accomplishment. And some football action now and the Minnesota Vikings upsetting the Chicago Bears on monday night football. Watch. Cousins forgetting about the field goal one armed able to bring it down fort touchdown. Vikings receiver catching two touchdowns in the 19113 win ovr chicago. Pregame cleats maybe gave him luck honoring late jeopardy host alex trebek saying we will miss you alex. And posting an adorable picture playing doctor with kids playing doctor with him. Rib fractures and collapsed lung. I have the best medical team in the world. We will be back in no time. Thats a cute. Four broken ribs hugging him. Coming back . Jillian yeah. Steve he is on the mend. As we reported in our lead story the state of georgias recount uncovering nearly 2600 ballots previously unaccounted for. Apparently somebody didnt load the memory stick into the big machine. What could that mean for other close races . A look at potential implications coming up next on fox friends. If your dry eye symptoms keep coming back, inflammation in your eye might be to blame. Looks like a great day for achy, burnin
