atlanta, georgia as we are just one day away from georgia's crucial senate runoff. both president trump and joe biden will hold dulin dueling rs in the peach state. will. steve: kelly loeffler against raphael warnock screen right. david perdue also on screen left will face jon ossoff on screen right. ainsley: live team coverage from georgia this morning. fox news co-host will cain is down in atlanta. first begin with griff jenkins live in dalton, georgia where supporters are already showing up for the president's rally. griff, i saw that man behind you when i woke up this morning he was still on your last hit "fox & friends first." the man with the t-shirt. griff: ainsley, that guy with the t-shirt is from detroit named carrie. he told me is ainsley's biggest fan i kid you not. it's cold here in dalton, georgia. take a look the supporters have come and turning out despite the weather. in fact the guy at the front of the line the very if irs guy named blake came from san diego on january 1st. and the president is coming here to north georgia because early voting shows, guys, that republicans need a strong turnout and he is coming on the heels of a firestorm firing the leak of that audio obtained by "the washington post" of the president pressuring georgia secretary of state brad raffensperger to secure enough vote to overturn the presidential results. listen here. >> i just want to find 11 are 7708 vote which is one more than we have. because we won the state so, tell me, brad, what are we going to do? we won the election and it's not fair to take it away from us like this. >> raffensperger confirmed the call to fox news and it's it division. david shaffer took to will twitter saying this mind boggling that georgia secretary of state and his lawyers would secretly record and release a confidential settlement conference with the president. will will over many confirmation. kemp is trying to avoid conflict and support the candidates. watch. >> people are fired up down here. they know that we're the red wall to stop socialism and hand the keys to pelosi and bernie and aoc and schumer. and we just can't do that. we have got to save the country. griff: meanwhile loeffler and perdue will mitigating the division trying to put the focus back on the democrats and what is at stake tomorrow. vice president elect kamala harris campaigning in savanna went on the attack. >> well, it was yes certainly the voice of desperation. most certainly that. and it was a are false bold face abuse of power by the president of the united states. griff: the president comes here in dalton. will it vice president biden will be in atlanta sometime today. the white house is not officially commenting on this call, guys. it will be very interesting to see what the president has to say tonight. brian, ainsley, steve? brian: be yes. they will be his script. and they will be what he says. two very different things. hey, griff. good job i heard you got the big suite and will and pete are upset about it. will bring in will cain "fox & friends weekend" co-host working all weekend long obviously. will, first off, this is an election on paper the republicans should have had 88,000 more votes for perdue in november 3rd and combine all the republican votes need about 50,000 in the special election. what's it like now? will: you know, brian, you are right. it would like a game in hand for republicans. let's take a look at what the score card says. this is where early voting stands this morning. over 30 million votes close to a million of those vote were mail-in ballots. we know the outside affect, influence mail-in balloting has had in elections in 2020. salute game changer early voting. playing a huge role here in georgia. take a look at this brian, steve, ainsley. tell me what you think of those. of those early votes, 117,000 were voters who did not vote in november. now, can you imagine a republican motivated to vote now in january that was not motivated to vote in a presidential election that featured donald trump on the ballot? i would suggest that's another warning sign for republicans. steve: republicans are pulling out all the stops. they are trying to -- outside interest groups aligned with mitch mcconnell have raised something like 150 million bucks so far. kelly loeffler has brought in many so of the biggest names in republican politics. ted cruz, lindsey graham, criminals city nome, david perdue brought in texas governor rick perry. will, they are trying to match the democrats. because they seem to have a lot of energy as well. not only have they raised so much money be from out of state but also they have had door-to-door knocking, which is different for them. they have had online rap concerts. the entire cast of the movie elf did a reading of the movie to raise money for the democrats. will. will: democrats have been trying to push the enthusiasm level up as well. on top of that celebrities and democrats have encouraged people to move in from out of state. they have encouraged people who just turned 18 to make sure they register to vote. perhaps that explains that number of voters who are already casting ballots that didn't vote in november. on the other side, republican enthusiasm is about what they know is at stake in this election. mark he will levin on his show last night mark liberty and levin laid this out very well. will levin put it into very eloquent words. listen to this. >> i want to talk specifically to the people of georgia. you are our last line of defense when it comes to the united states senate. you're it. if you had any inclination to sit at home, you better stand the hell up. we're not asking you to go to war. we're not asking you to put your lives on the line. we have brave young men and women who do that every single day. we are asking you to vote. not just for georgia. but for the rest of us. we are asking you to vote for the rest of us. whether you like these republican candidates or not, it doesn't matter. ainsley: so much is at stake here, will, and he is reminding us of that the balance of power. will: absolutely. look at it this way. we have had this conversation several times over the last couple of days on "fox & friends" on the weekend. what might be at the top of the democratic wish list should they control the senate the house and the presidency. many are suggesting structural change, adding d.c. and puerto rico as states. doing away with the filibuster. mechanisms designed to ensure democrats not just get power this time but control power in to the future. because, if that's the case, brian, steve, ainsley, then you can get everything you want on your wish list. brian: all right, will. we will check in with you again a wild scene over the next 48 hours. likely to be an election week than election night. because we never likely to get the results the same day they don't start counting mail in absentee until election day unlike what florida did. meanwhile, let's change gears and talk about the one lead story would be a lead any other day except for today because of the special elections in georgia and that is what ted cruz is heading up. senator josh hawley started it. ted cruz is leading it. leading a group of 11 more senator. basically calling for emergency 10-day audit of election returns in the disputed states. he is going to both the representative since he has over 100 in the house. these are the 11 that are up there. mitt romney is not one of them. but he says since representative -- since these representatives are going to object. they want to put together a commission maybe if it's precedent 1876 is a precedent. would be the chief justice which would be john roberts. and the house speaker would be nancy pelosi. will name a commission and in 10 days find out if the electoral college actually had it right and joe biden won. here is ted. >> went in to this election with the country deeply divided. deeply polarized. and we have seen in the last two months unprecedented allegations of voter fraud. and that's produced a deep, deep distrust of our democratic process across the country. i think we, in congress, have an obligation to do something about that. we will, together, object to certificationing in order to force the appointment of an emergency electoral commission to perform an emergency audit of the election result to assess these claims of fraud. we have an obligation to the voters and we have an obligation to the constitution to inbe sure that this election was lawful. will. brian: the thing that's scary is because this puts in doubt all the things with the electoral college not without precedent but virtually is. makes people wonder like democrats do we have an excuse to start dumping the electoral college among the significant republicans not on bored predicted that maybe senator susan collins wouldn't be. and maybe mitt romney would never be. how about tom cotton he says i'm out on this. i would like an examination of what happened. and liz cheney said don't count me in. she thinks it's dangerous. steve: well, democrats in the past have done things like this but not quite this large. so it will be interesting to see what happens. there are 140 members in the house who want to challenge the electoral college result, and so stay tuned. bubblinbubblingbuckle in. ainsley: you hear people saying they have got dead people's ballots. i heard one lady say she got four ballots in the mail. two of them were for the people who lived in her house before and both of them are dead. she could have easily if she had done the wrong thing it's illegal. she could have voted illegally. she didn't do that. but so many people have questions, integrity is so important and interest there are these patel ground states where they changed the laws. they changed the rules at the last minute and people have a problem with that they are worried if they don't do something about it now this will continue and mail-in ballots will continue in the next election. brian: it's got no shot at success. steve: that's the case that donald trump and his lawyers have put out. they said there is all this evidence. but they haven't really produced the evidence. are i have read the entire one hour and two minute call the president had with brad rafnsberg yesterday and at one point the president was talking about how thousands of dead people voted and the secretary of state down in georgia said, you know, mr. president, we have looked into that. we could only find two people who were listed as dead who actually did the voting. and it was, you know, it was mistake in the household. will. ainsley: just that state. steve: in the state of georgia. ultimately is it going to make any difference are? brian, to your point, probably not. but for a lot of people who feel like they have been listening to the president of the united states and he is asking for loyalty to them they are standing up for him at the 11th hour. pause, after wednesday. that's it. brian: yeah. that will be it. just the one other thing to bring up with all of this is that i just worry about you have that along with the protest the president is calling for on tuesday and wednesday. i mean, this is the type of anarchy that doesn't work for anybody republicans or democrats in the big picture. and i just think it's up to the president's legal team to produce what they are telling them they have. for example, if they have thousands -- if they have hundred dead people voting in nevada, can i see the names? 200 -- if you have thousands, you are telling the president you have thousands of dead people voting in georgia. show the president and then have the president hold it up. because if it's 2,000 most likely be 20,000. so far there is just no proof of it. and just because you voted for the president doesn't mean that there is actual evidence that exists. steve: do you know what, brian? there have been a number of the president's supporters who have said things on t are v or on social media that have, you know, clouded the waters where it's like wow, thousands of dead people. dominion machines and all that stuff. but interestingly enough, that information is never entered into a court because you cannot present information to a court if you do not have the evidence. and so far we haven't seen the evidence. maybe today at noon bring out the evidence but we haven't seen the evidence. ainsley: i think people who are staunch conservatives in our country just feel so -- just so defeated pause of this election they do feel like it was rigged and to see what happened in georgia. that democrat could have the house. democrats could have the senate and the presidency. if disheartening for a lot of people. steve: that's the danger for a lot of people in georgia, ainsley, so many of the republicans are quietly a little worried because the president has said look, it was rigged. so, if it was rigged in georgia, why would we go and waste our vote waste our time standing in line tomorrow? the worry is that that it's rigged thing could actually tamp down the republican voters tomorrow. brian: actually, if you look at it, outside the presidency, the republicans had a sensational night on november 3rd. proof in point, the house. look what they did. they didn't lose one single seat as of right now. two seats unfilled. look like they are going to go to the production' direction. they gained a huge number of seats. not one expert had this happening. kevin mccarthy always believed it wouldn't. even though they were outspent precipitously. 322 democrats and 211, 211 republicans with two seats unfilled. ainsley: that's why nancy pelosi almost didn't win yesterday. >> and to that point nancy pelosi was able to hold on to her speakership. but 216 votes, mccarthy had 209. many. ainsley: kevin mccarthy was giving the speech and passing the gavel to her. he said my dad was a firefighter and i will never ever vote to defund the police or law enforcement or firefighters. everyone, you know. steve: one other person in the leadership on the republican side yesterday he tweeted out steve scalise said i can't believe nancy pelosi is going to keep eric swalwell on the intel committee after all that stuff we heard about over the last couple weeks. brian: maybe it was a deal she had to cut to keep her seat. steve: with that narrow, she loses him, it's even closer. ainsley: jillian has some

challenging that. and here's what cnn had to say about it. the move was not designed to overturn bush's re-election. the objecting democrats, all of whom are house members except for boxer said they

steve: it does. >> that's what happened then. it's not unprecedented and not too hard to find this information either, steve. steve: all right. something else we wanted to talk to you about, you know, as you look at the coronavirus, there have been some new headlines over the last week or two in major newspapers, for instance, on december 21st the "new york times" talked about the u.k. coronavirus variant. what we know. then in the "the washington post" we have got some headlines on january 22nd, u.k. variant continues to spread around the world as coronavirus pandemic enters 2021. now, isn't that interesting? so there you can see you have got the united kingdom in the title but, remember back in march of 2020 president trump many are defends the use of chinese virus label according to the "new york times" ignoring criticism in the "the washington post." in march trump has no qualms about calling coronavirus the chinese virus. that's a dangerous attitude and it depose on and on. what do you make of that? >> oh, boy, well, again the going machine it comes in such handy when we are having these conversations, steve. on february 20th, which i believe is my procedure's birthday, of 2020 the "new york times" had a headline that said wuhan coronavirus looks increasingly like a pandemic, experts say. cnn on multiple occasions called it the wuhan coronavirus or the chinese coronavirus before later condemning those who called it those very things. look we had ezekiel, we had ebola. we had the spanish flu which i believe didn't even come from spain. west nile virus. you you have viruses that come from places therefore they are called those specific viruses because that's where they, onated. so i don't see how this possibly could be racist whether it's the chinese coronavirus or covid as most of us call it now or in the case of the u.k., yes, it is a variant that came from the u.k. this is actually very simple stuff, steve. anyways, got to go my new year's resolution i was

of the squad. they feel empowered. they also feel like their numbers have grown. when you see the group shot of the squad, the most left wing of the left wing party, what are your thoughts about the power they bring to the floor. >> i mean, i don't really know why they feel excited or empowered. they might have increased their numbers, but this is the slimmest majority democrats have had since world war ii. what that shows is that even though they might win in these super blue districts, their message doesn't resonate. their policies do not resonate across most of the country when people get away from the politics of personality and start looking at their pocketbooks and their communities and things that are important for the future of their children. steve: congressman, before you go, are i know you were born and raised in brooklyn up here in new york. how did you kind up in florida? >> i'm a florida state grad. i'm a florida state grad. go knowles. ainsley: i went there my freshman and sophomore year i think you are a little bit younger than me. >> i don't know. ainsley: i looked it up. you are. [laughter] and your wife is beautiful. and your three kids are just -- it's just so fun to be a parent and i'm proud of you. i know your mom is probably watching this morning and she is just elay of thed because all that hard work paid off. you are doing great. >> it absolutely did. really i'm just here by the grace of god. i'm just thankful to be here with you guys this morning. brian: congressman, real quick, you represent the future of the party in many ways. if the republicans are going to be successful long term they have onto resonate with the african-american community. somehow they did with you. what should they know about the african-american community to allow them to resonate in the future. >> a couple things. black people are conservative. we believe in families. we believe in opportunities. we want to be able to just rise up and grow in america like everybody else that's number one. number two, as republicans, you just have to stand for something. coach little league football for years dealing with young kids and trying to figure out which way to go. at the end of the day just do something. just do something. what we have got to do as republicans is stand on our principles. stand for the constitution and promote school choice. promote economic opportunities and really do those things when we have the power here in washington, d.c. and in state legislative bodies across the country. the third thing is get to the communities and share the message. brian: don't pander, act. >> that's right. steve: and, of course, you are now a member of the brand new freedom force, congressman byron dodged of florida, sir, thank you very much. good luck now get to work. >> i will. thanks, guys. ainsley: god bless you. thank you. steve: somebody who is at work right now janice dean the weather machine. happy new year, j.d. ainsley: happy new year are. janice: happy new year my friends. good to see you. happy 2021. let's make it a good one. the forecast not too bad for the rest of the country. it feels cold but we are not dealing with bitter artic air which is a it good sign. we do have a system off the coast of the northeast that is going to bring some wintry weather but not a blockbuster storm. the west, that's where we are seeing the worst of it including coastal rain, heavy mountain snow. feet of snow, actually, as we mo into the rockies. and the cascade region. that's really the weather maker over the next couple days over the west. i wish we could get some of that moisture in towards southern elf a. unfortunately that's not going to happen. central u.s. looks good for much of today. it looks like mostly sunny skies for georgia. tomorrow, my friends, there is no reason for you not to get out and vote. steve, ainsley, brian, back to you. steve: no weather reason. all right. thank you, j.d. ainsley: president-elect biden says he wants to work with both sides of the aisle to get things done has on agenda. new op-ed minimum wage hike might be his bipartisan break through. is that true? stuart varney is going to answer that coming up next. ♪ frank! they have shingles vaccines! whaaat? that's what i said. we're taking you to the doctor. not going through that again. you can also get it from your pharmacist! 50 years or older get vaccinated for shingles now. brian: joe biden vowed to increase the minimum wage while while on the campaign trial. new are wage hike could be exactly what he needs for a bipartisan break through. so is that true? does that work? let's ask host of varney and company stuart varney. stuart, great to see you again. you are getting set to go at 9:00. let me ask you about the minimum wage. is this something we should convalesce around? >> i personally don't like the idea. because you are talking about a federal minimum wage of $15 per hour. that would be true and applied in all states. while the cost of living varies from state to state, so you should really have a varied minute muminimum wage. $15 an hour will kill a lot of jobs in a lot of states. however, having said that, i would agree with the premise of that op-ed that this, indeed, looks like the most likely compromise financial compromise that joe biden can come up with. think about it 8 states working towards $15 an hour minimum wage. if you look at all the surveys and there are lots of surveys about public opinion on $15 an hour. it usually gets 60 to 70% support. it's attractive to both sides of the aisle. there are plenty of republicans who want to be extremely generous. and this is an easy way of doing it. it doesn't come at the expense of taxpayers. you simply make that rule and impose it and people get a raise. that politically is very attractive. so i would agree that this is the most likely financial compromise that joe biden is going to come up with in the immediate future. brian: as much as i want everyone to make as much as possible i don't want small businesses to suffer and shutter. we know this from obamacare. you put out a rule, they are going to react. there is going to be less people going to be hired. hours are going to be lengthened and those people already making 15 are going to want 20 and 25. so, the tax is only going to go up. i also keep in mind the small business owners should have a vote in this and maybe states should make that decision we kind of agree on that. we are just citing trends. i want to bring up something else that matters. people like to not blame china for the virus that they started haven't haven't paid for and europe cuts trade deals with and at the same time say america is so saddled and divided we are going to be surpassed in 020. oops, that didn't happen. now they say by 2028 we are going to get passed by china. the new op-ed comes out and says the chinese expansion myth is that just a myth. someone needs to tell the naive counters that all the china's tata is will one are as i remember purpose make communist leaders look good. america is not committees destined to play second fiddling to china, expand on that if you would. >> i very much agree with that op-ed that you just quoted there. you can't trust the numbers coming out of china. but you don't have any other numbers. what other indicators do you have that incouple pass the whole country other than china's official numbers. very few people actually believe them. you have got this forecast that's by 2028, china's economy will be bigger than america's. at the moment we are 21 children. china is 14 trillion. i don't think they are going to surpass us in the next 8 years. i don't believe their growth numbers. and i think that we may well grow very rapidly given all this money printing and all this stimulus money that's coming down the pike immediately. steve: i hea brian: i hear you. at the they are stifling. are might be missing like any other ceo. thank you so much, stuart. >> sure thing. brian: big show still ahead, kevin mccarthy and marsha blackburn. don't move. and those are the two people. research shows people remember commercials with nostalgia. so to help you remember that liberty mutual customizes your home insurance, here's one that'll really take you back. it's customized home insurance from liberty mutual! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ ...little things... ...can become your big moment. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable. 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. you can adjust yourowest priccomfort on both sides... your sleep number setting.. can it help me fall asleep faster?

'. ainsley: hold in the peach state today, brian. brian: thank you for that toss, ainsley. brian: looking down at your face. brian: i appreciate it. raphael warnock is taking on incouple bent republican kelly loeffler. you probably know that already. jon ossoff is facing incumbent david perdue who is quarantining himself. steve: he is, indeed. good morning, everybody. it is monday, january 4th, 2020. happy new year to you. thank you very much for joining us. as ainsley and brian have said, this is a busy week because today both president of the united states and president-elect joe biden go down to georgia because tomorrow is the run off and then wednesday congress goes ahead and certifies the electoral college vote. with you, there is going to be a fight. so, we have got live team coverage from georgia this morning. we are going to kick things off with "fox & friends weekend" co-host will cain, sorry, will. brian: oh, no. steve: actually going to kick things off with griff jenkins. supporters are already showing up for the president's rally tonight. hey, griff. griff: hey, steve, ainsley and brian, good morning. polls open here in georgia in exactly 24 hours. of the cold in dalton and north georgia hasn't stopped these supporters from turning out. really a strong crowd already starting to build. you see this is mike from indiana. is he waiving a flag. he has come to support president trump and the gentleman waiving his hands up in the air, ainsley, that's terry, he is from detroit. he is your biggest fan, the president needs to turn out of the vote because early voting shows republicans need a strong turnout here it's coming at a time when that bombshell recording obtained by "the washington post" is causing a firestorm. it's the president on a phone call with georgia's secretary of state brad raffensperger and the president is asking him to secure enough votes to overturn the presidential results. listen here. >> i just want to find 11780 votes. which is one more than we have because we won the state so tell me, brad, what are we going to do? we won the election and it's not fair to take it away from us like this. >> raffensperger confirmed the call to fox news and it's causing division. georgia's g.o.p. chairman david shaffer taking to twitter saying mind boggling that georgia secretary of state and his lawyers would secretly record and release a confidential settlement conference with the president. the president also has continued to attack governor brian kemp calling for his resignation. now, kemp, for his part. has tried to avoid conflict and support the candidates. watch. >> people are fired up down here. they know that we're the red wall to stop socialism and hand the keys to pelosi and bernie and aoc and schumer. and we just can't do that. we have got to save the country. griff: this has put loeffler and perdue between a rock and hard place as they navigate and try to put the focus back on the democrats. but vice president elect kamala harris seizing on it. opportunity here campaigning in is a van be that yesterday and went on the attack. >> yes, it was certainly the voice of desperation. most certainly that. and it was a bald bald faced bold abuse of power by the president of the @. griff: what's amazing you have dueling rallies while the president is coming to dalton down to atlanta president-elect joe biden is going to hold a rally there. so we will see what comes from these dueling rallies. as you can see i will give you one last look certainly the crowd fired up. there is even a young girl here that's made a sign for the president supporting him. they certainly believe a lot of the allegations that the president has made about unfair elections and when i talked to the voters over the last couple days here in georgia. it has made them somewhat weary about the integrity of the election. although the secretary of state, and officials here say that it will be an honest and accurate result. a result though because the races are so close. we may not know on election night. steve: what are they chanting? ainsley: what are they saying? griff: they are saying stop the steal. stop the steal. it's a slogan we have heard before that the president began when he began to raise concerns and launched claims against the election results. ainsley: all right. i was going to go say god give terry our big fan from detroit a big fun. griff: terry. steve: you can't hug him. ainsley: at. griff: two seconds on my mike known what do you want to say to ainsley. >> we love you, ainsley. ainsley: terry, you came from detroit. >> god bless america. and god bless the president. griff: loves you, too. can't believe you came from detroit. why did you come from detroit. >> because i love the president and we want to back him 100 percent. griff: all right. thank you, jerry. what does the t-shirt say? will. >> terry, what's your t-shirt say the only thing worse than covid-19 would be biden 20. >> that's the truth. will. ainsley: god bless you, terry. ing. ainsley: thank you. bring in will cain, "fox & friends weekend" co-host. he is also in the great state of georgia. hey, will. will: i am. what a bar. i don't think i can clear the war that griff just set, ainsley. i don't have anybody right here off hand. erika, come here real click do you want to see how much you love ainsley. she loves you too, ainsley. >> you're great. will: i'm going to do my best to meet the bar that griff set. win thing if a fascinating. talked about the voters there somebody who came out of state who are worried about the infederal government gri at this of the election here in georgia. obviously with two things going on at the same time this week. the election for the two senate runoffs and the certification of the presidential race on wednesday, there is some worry these are going to be working in tension with each other. will they discourage people from voting on tuesday? well, senator david perdue was on the next revolution last night. he said he is not worried about that. listen. >> i don't think it's really going to affect our election. i'm still shocked that a member of the republican party would tape a sitting president and then leak that it's disgusting in my view. but, what the president says is exactly what he has been saying the last few months and that is that the last two months anyway, we have had some irregularities in the election in november and he wants some answers. he has not gotten them yet from ourselves. that's one reason why i ask for them to to resign. will: i'm sure, ains bely, brian, and steve, there are people who are worried before the integrity of the election here in georgia. i do not think it's going to play a significant role in the outcome of these senate runoff races. i have think you either understand what's at stake or you do not. i think you either understand that this is the potential direct vote on whether or not taxes both income in the state will be increased the green new deal is the top agenda item list and will be passed. whether or not immigration laws will be changed. i think you either understand that if democrats have complete control of the federal government what they will do with it or you do not. i think that's pretty clear. brian: yeah. it is pretty clear and the numbers are pretty clear, too. if the republic is going to be successful it's going to be like they did on election day. people have got to walk up and vote on election day. that's tomorrow. they say that last time 61% of senator perdue's votes came on election day. he got 977,000. now they say he needs about 1.3 million to come on election day to show up on election day and then things will break his way and loeffler's way. that's what the statisticians say with 22% of people when asked on election day i'm going to vote. i'm not doing the early thing. i'm going to wait until election day. we will see what happens. long lines look good for republicans. will voting day. not really in to the mail in voting or early voting. we will check in with you again. will: okay. see you guys. brian: 9 minutes after the top of the hour. other big story happening taking place on the on wednesday. that will be january 6th. when they go to gavel in the electoral college results. at which time 11, 12 senators have joined senator ted cruz and said we would like to 10 days to evaluate in the battleground states what really took place there because they say so much went wrong there. senator ron johnson is one of those people that signed up for this. and he said i'm with ted. and he was the one who went on meet the press and had a very, i guess, dispassionate host in chuck todd who wasn't buying any of it. this was a brawl. here's a little of it. >> we are not asking to thwart the democratic process. we are asking to protect it. the fact of the matter is that we have an unsustainable state of affairs in this country where we have tens of millions of people that do not view this election result as legitimate. >> you made an allegation that there was widespread fraud. have you failed to offer specific evidence of that widespread fraud, but you are demanding an investigation on the grounds that there are allegations of widespread fraud. so, essentially, you're the arsonist here. >> this fire was started when you completely ignored, for example, our investigation of hunter biden where republicans and conservatives do not trust the mainstream media and that is what has destroyed the credibility of the media. >> all right. i have had enough of hearing this. steve: and chuck todd at one point inwent on to talk about are you going to investigate the moan landing and things like that as well? there are 140 members of the house on the republican side who are going to challenge and there are as we saw in that graphic at least a baker's dozen, 13 senators on the republican side as well. what they want is they would like a congressional commission to look into the election results. and they would like a 10-day pause and certification to do an audit. it is unlikely that that is going to happen because, keep in mind, the democrats hold the majority in the house. and on the republican side in the senate, mitch mcconnell himself has already acknowledged joe biden is the president-elect. nonetheless, you know, you saw that clip right there with chuck todd, there are members of the mainstream media that say that this is unprecedented and yet in 2005 this were democrat who did the same thing. not these numbers but nonetheless the same thing. here is joe concha. >> reading a cnn story on this from january 6th of 2005, talks about how 31 house members voted against george w. bush's win in 2004. here's what cnn had to say about it. the move was not designed to overturn bush's re-election. the objecting democrats, all of whom are house members except for boxer said they wanted to draw attention to the need for aggressive election reform in the wake of what they said was widespread voter problems. boy, that sounds familiar. that sounds very 2020, doesn't it? ainsley: you know, here's the question that a lot of people are asking. if there is a question about the vote. and if they think that it was rigged, and many people do believe that then we need investigations and we need to know what our votes count, that our votes -- the votes were legal and we need to find out where the problems are so we can make sure this doesn't happen in the future. because, if these democrats, if they win georgia, people fear that from here on out there are going to be mail-in votes which we don't trust now because the president doesn't trust it and we all have heard these stories of people getting four ballots and two of them were dead people. and so you have to have trust anding integrity of the system. if doesn't matter if you are republican or democrat we should all want that. so many people questioning what's happening, an investigation, many of these republicans just want it investigated. steve: part of it, ainsley, is the fact that the president has been talking about how it's rigged. he has got my lawyers tell me this. but we just haven't seen the evidence to suggest that at this point. ainsley: a lot of republicans don't think we ever will see the evidence. because they -- we can't prove a lot of these signatures. they changed the rules at the last minute in pennsylvania. they changed of the rules in georgia. because of covid. and because of covid, people didn't want to go to the polls. i understand that. but changed everything. steve: right. covid is still out there today. that's one of the things that the senators and the congressman are looking at on the republican side who are going to object to the certification on wednesday. is they would like to reform the election system. so that what happened in november, you know, if there was fraud, never happens again. brian: right. just keep in mind, too. we want to keep the electoral college in america. that's what we do. and if democrats looking for some type of opening to get rid of it. i worry as does people like liz cheney and senator tom cotton and senator lindsey graham who certainly in the president's side almost on everything he has done for three and three quarter years, they worry about this being opening saying why don't we blow it up and make it a simple popular vote. ainsley: dangerous because that could backfire brian brian think this is the last protest. we will see. overshadowing what happened with the presidential race you many state houses senate. won one of these seats hold it in a year in which he this were supposed to lose it. they were supposed to get crushed in the house. they picked up seats there now within 11 seats of the majority. cori bush is somebody who is making a lot of noise for himself. not only calling capitalism a form of slavery i'm a proud member of the squad which is now increasing in size. many people say don't be deceived. they are not increasing in power. one of which joined us an hour ago. congressman byron dodged of florida. >> i don't really know why they feel excited or empowered. they might have increased their numbers. but this is the slimmist majority democrats have had since world war ii. what that shows is that even though they might win in these super blue districts. their message doesn't resonate. their policies does not resonate across most of the country when people actually get away from the politics of personality and start looking at their pocketbooks. and looking at their communities and what's important for the future of their children. brian: what the congressman is saying. buff they do have more power in terms of numbers. nancy pelosi got very little maneuverability. if they stay together and say we are not voting for that she is hamstrung. he has to do this horrible thing hold on to something, recruit republicans. which she doesn't even try to do in 100 years as speaker. so this is going to be a brand new ballgame and they do have leverage in that way. brian: wha ainsley: what did she promise democrats who were not going to vote for her but ended up backing her. i wonder what conversations they had with her to get them to vote. steve: eric swalwell had some sort of relationship with a chinese spy, she kept him on the intel committee. what's up with that? she needed his vote. ainsley: um-huh. brian: right. so the guys who cannot vote. the people who did not vote for her conor lamb, alyssa cheryl. recall spam berger. jason crew, ron kind, kathleen rice which is stunning from new york. one of her biggest critics and kurt schrader of oregon. all right. let's go over to jillian because she has the other breaking news. jillian: that's right. good morning. julian assange will not be extradited to the u.s. a british judge ruling it would be, quote, oppressive to his mental health and he was likely to kill himself if held under harsh u.s. prison conditions. assange is facing espionage charges and currently locked up in a london prison. the u.s.

after five democrats broke rank. next guest sworn in for second term and said he proudly voted against her joining us is republican texas congressman lance gooden. congressman, good morning to you and congratulations. >> good morning. thank you very much. steve: her margin was really narrow. i know there were no defections on the republican side she had five or six and in fact jared golden voted for tammy buck worth and conor lamb voted for hakeem jeffries. she must have done some real arm twisting behind the scenes. >> she must have. you know, nancy pelosi is very good at counting votes shoe has had 100 years to master the process. it was close. they were sweating it. they didn't know if they would have members unable to show up. they have been proxy voting this whole year. there were members in the chamber yesterday that had made their first trip it washington, d.c. in about 8 months. and so there was uncertainty. one member claimed to have covid six days ago. they had allegedly set up plexiglass for her in in the event they needed her vote at the last minute on the floor. they didn't be in the end, but it just goes to show how nervous they were about the whole process. steve: i think you are referring to glen moore a democrat from wisconsin announced six days earlier she had tested positive for covid. didn't say when or if she was negative. said she was cleared of by her doctors to travel so she was in the chamber. you know, i mentioned this a moment ago after a couple of weeks of really bad publicity. eric swalwell, nancy pelosi reinstalled him on the intel committee after that relationship a number of years ago with the chinese spy. >> it's incredible. the fact that he was even there after the all if she had any knowledge of that is stunning to me. but, after what came out in the last month that he would still be on that committee, is either incompetence or desfather ration on her part to keedesdesperatios whole vote theory that would make sense to me she had to have his vote to stay speaker. keeping him on because she actually believes in him is just crazy to me. steve: then again, back when he first came in, she was apparently brief evidenced on what had transpired. >> that's correct. steve: and put it on it anyway. it speaks to her judgment. >> it's a shame. we also know if the situation were reversed. if it were a republican on that committee. they would just be -- there would be outrage on the streets on the democratic side. steve: absolutely. all right. there is outrage on the -- in the streets of the democrats. that a number of republicans including you, there are 140 house members who plan to challenge the electoral college certification on wednesday. what happened touring the election that has pushed you to the point where you say hey, we have got to talk about this before we vote? >> you know, in my election in texas, just at a much smaller scale level, poll watchers representing my campaign were turned away from polling places in democrat run dallas county and i thought to myself if this is happening to me here, what's happening in these other areas. and then come to find out there were numerous instances, allegations, sworn testimony by people who are purging themselves if thepurge perjurint telling the truth. numerous counts of voter fraud across the area. thee have not had full audits of ballots in georgia. when you recount the same ballots all over again all you are doing is recountinged what numbers. we have been refused a full signature audits in places like georgia. i heard yesterday that if, in fact, there was this fraud that the senate runoff for mr. perdue is not even necessary. so, we have just got so many questions that voters want answers to. my constituents want answers to. and i don't understand why democrats refuse to even have a conversation about this -- these allegations. you would think they would want them cleared up going into january 20th. steve: right. that he was what i read. the main thing republicans just simply want to have the discussion. want to have the debate. result mastly though, i would imagine you would like some sort of election reform so that this never happens again. >> that would be nice. it's difficult to imagine a scenario where we have meaningful reform if nancy pelosi is speaker. especially if we lose in georgia tomorrow. the georgia races tomorrow are so critical. but, would he have got to at least shine a light on fraud and these allegations and put these to bed. and i don't think that we have had answers. i don't understand why the other side calls my side those of house are come out in opposition to certifying these results, why they have called us unamerican. why they say it's irresponsible. i don't understand why republicans in the house, some of my own colleagues would actually come out and say that what we're doing is unamerican. and unwise. i think getting to the root of these allegations and determining what fraud did or did not take place is very american and is our duty as members of congress. steve: we should point out that democrats have done it in the past so it's not unprecedented. congressman, thank you very much for joining us. good luck on your second term. >> thank you, take care. steve: you bet. 7:29 in new york city. new york governor andrew cuomo is still receiving praise for his

been more than nine months since governor andrew cuomo signed the mandate forcing nursing homes to take in covid-19 patients. that order now blamed for the death of thousands of elderly residents be including the in-laws of our own janice dean. janice dean takes the governor and the media who won't press him on this issue to task in her foxnews.com op-ed titled the tragic rise of andrew cuomo amid covid-19 a real american crisis. janice joins us now. good morning, janice. >> hi, ainsley. happy new year. ainsley: happy new year to you, too. your family was on my mind i know sean lost both of his parents during covid. you lost both of your in-laws. kids lost their grandparents. why did you write there op-ed? >> i thought it was important to document his tragic rise as the media anointed him as america's governor meanwhile he was putting covid positive patient into nursing homes for 46 of days and never really called to task on the major news programs. and our grief started to turn to anger. not only my grief but thousands of other families who want answers and accountability to this date the governor has never said i'm sorry for your loss. he really hasn't taken any responsibility and that's why i wanted to write this from the very beginning from march an wards until today where we are still grieving and we still don't have the answers. including the exact number of seniors who died not only in nursing homes but in the hospital like my mother-in-law did. ainsley: you write about the props that he uses and that really struck a nerve with me, too. because when you see these leaders the ones that are hypocrites, you know, telling us to do one thing and they are not cooking it themselves or when you see him on another network with that big q-tip and laughing about it with his brother i thought about the people who do have covid and that -- it's not a laughing matter. did that really -- how did you feel when you saw him laughing with his brother or saw him using these props? >> it was awful. that was during of the time when we were trying to get answers and finding out about this mandate that put covid positive patients into nursing homes. for 46 days and to see him joking that cuomo comedy hour over on cnn him writing a book in the middle of a pandemic. and then getting an emmy for his leadership. it's beyond salt in a wound, ainsley. and he continues his victory tour. and be so that's why i wanted to write a complete essay and get quotes from nursing home operators and families who have lost loved ones, it was important to do. this i hope it's one of the last essays i have to write on this governor. ainsley: you know, janice, why aren't they giving you the numbers? don't be we deserve to know? janice: we do. to this date he still continues to not give us the numbers. his government, his health department, and i got a quote from the justice department who has an investigation into the governor and these numbers as of october, and they gave me a quote from a justice official senior justice official from the department saying that as of this date, governor cuomo and his health department have given them nothing. ainsley: all right. keep fighting, janice. we are sorry for your loss. thank you for being a voice for those that don't have the position you do. janice: thanks, ainsley. ainsley: you are welcome. god bless you. we reached

[laughter] brian: when you look around and look on the ground do you think the people of georgia understand what's at stake here? will: first of all, brian, don't kid yourself these vin nears were very expensive. i do think the people of georgia understand what's at stake here. but, if there is any doubt. if there is any question remaining, stacey abrams one time democratic gubernatorial candidate here in georgia was ready to lay it out yesterday on abc. i want you to listen to this for a second. >>ing in fact, the republicans have done it for us. their refusal to pass $2,000 relief checks. their refusal to support municipal governments. the hypocritical idea it's okay to support business but not to support the business of government. the business of serving the people has really galvanized voters. they feel the very real cons be sequences of covid-19 here in georgia where we have more than 630,000 infections. we have more than 10,000 deaths. and we have hospitals at capacity. republicans have no intention of responding to covid-19. and they know we need a president-elect joe biden to have a partnership in the senate and that's why joe biden needs raphael warnock and jon ossoff. will: so, if you didn't catch that let me highlight it for you the quote business of government. government isn't in business. it doesn't generate a profit. it's not entrepreneurial. it doesn't create anything. it's like a bulldozer. it moves dirt from one side of the aisle to the other. that is what she is talking about. the nerve to talk about the business of government and government getting help after democratic cities and governors all across this nation have shut down businesses and then, like a mob boss walking up to your counter teller saying i still need my cut. stacey abrams is saying where is government's cut during all of this? that's what at stake in georgia in stacey abrams own words. steve: all right. will cain reporting live from atlanta. we will be back with you in about 15 minutes. thank you very much. meanwhile let's dial in tennessee republican senator marsha blackburn who joins us from teen see. senator, good morning be to you. >> good morning. steve: you know, we're going to talk a little bit about how you are backing the fight over the certification of the electoral college vote because it was rigid, the president has said. how much does it worry you that the president and some of his surrogates have said, look, it's rigged. the election was rigged in november and ultimately it could will discourage the turfout there in georgia tomorrow? >> you know, when interest are allegations of fraud, and when there's all this conversation that is taking place around the election results, one of the things that we should do is define the problem and then offer an action item that will get us to a solution. and that's exactly what we are doing. and what we said we would do in our statement in putting in place a commission that would conduct a review of what transpired, investigate the allegations and then come back to the electoral college, which i will say is a vital part of our process, that is the appropriate respectful step to take. it is constitutional. it is given to the electoral college to make these decisions. and that is exactly what we're doing. we're exercising our constitutional duty and following precedent from 1877 this is the recommendation and the way they resolved it then. it's appropriate we use that now. ainsley: will you explain what's going on in the state of georgia? i know you are from tennessee. another southern state. i grew up in south carolina. where our families love the bible. families love their guns. family love community and they take care of one another. most of them don't leave the state. if you were born in south carolina. you know, most people don't understand why living in new york city and i love that state but this is where my job called. and so, what's going on be in that state? because when newt gingrich was speaker, i mean, that state was so ored. how in the world are these two runoff elections neck in neck? >> and ainsley i talked to georgians every single day. as we have worked on this. and that look at this and say how is it that people that live outside of the state have the ability to vote in our election? and when you look at the issues that are there in georgia i say what you have got coming back are the security moms. women who are speaking up and they are concerned about economic security, job security. they want to make certain that their communities are safe. and they are showing up at the ballot box. and the interesting thing to me is most of these women are not partisans. they don't identify as republican, democrat, or independent. what they are focused on is the future for their children. opportunity for their children. making certain that their families have jobs. making certain that their freedoms are protected. and i, honestly, do not think these women i will are going to go vote for the two most radical senate candidates that the democrat party has ever ever put forward in any states. brian: you are right. by all polls neck in neck or it looks like the democrats are up two. they need 1.3 million to show up roughly an estimate on election day for the republican us to prevail at least for senator perdue to do. i want to bring the other big story to happen yesterday. "the washington post" posted 4 and a half minutes and allowed and actually had an attachment to have the whole transcript of an hour long conversation the president had with his legal team mark meadows and the secretary of state and his legal team about election contentions and the issues that the decided that georgia would go electoral votes would go to joe biden by about 11,000 votes. at which time the president is heard saying i need 11,000 -- he is urging him to find enough will votes to reverse the state's rules. can you find 11,000 more votes. he believes in every fiber of his meaning that he won georgia. what did you glean from that call yesterday? >> brian, one of the things, i think, that everyone are has said is that this call was not a helpful call. now, one of the things you have seen us talk about with our coalition that is looking at election integrity is sending this issue back to the states. the states are the ones that are going to resolve this issue. we do not have federalized elections in this country. we do not want federalized elections in this country. but, it is going to be up to these state legislatures and these elected officials not, nonelected or appointed officials to make these decisions and abiding by the constitutional responsibility is where our emphasis is on call for a commission that is going to look into these election integrity issues. that's how to resolve this. steve: , what changed everything are in this past election is there is a global pandemic and different states did different things. ultimately 353,000 americans have died so far. it's just a tragic number. >> are it is tragic. steve: it is, indeed. all right, senator, thank you very much for joining us live. >> good to join you, thank you. steve: the effort to recall california governor gavin newsom gets a boost with a former san francisco mayoring the effort. he may even challenge the governor's re-election. he is here next. ♪ breeze drifting on by you know how i feel. ♪ ♪ it's a new dawn... if you've been taking copd sitting down, it's time to make a stand. 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. take a stand and start a new day with trelegy. ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy. and save at trelegy.com. the sleep number 360 smart bed. prices of the season on ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy. can it help with snoring?

change america, does that mean adopting a governing philosophy that believes america is inherentlyville and racist? does it mean to shut businesses down throughout this covid pandemic? is it just raise taxes, pass the green new deal, change immigration laws, or is it change this country structurally? add two more states to add four more senators, get rid of the filibuster, consolidate democratic power? what does it mean to change america? they might find out soon here in georgia. steve: well, if the democrats do lose, i'm sure they'll be going, hey, chuck, why'd you give them a sound bite? >> reporter: i know. steve: will, thank you very much. we'll check back in in about 20 minutes. in griff's report, we saw a snippet of brian kemp, the governor there, and he has been steadfast in supporting the republicans in this re-election. but you know what? according to the atlanta journal constitution this morning, their lead story on politics is about how he has, for the most part, in this final push been missing in action aaside from on tv. he's not appearing at the loeffler or perdue events, and one of the reasons is the fact that because the president has just, you know, he said the election there has been rigged, he said that brian kemp is a joke and he's clueless and he should quit. it's that intraparty squabbling that has some people worried, ainsley, that that could actually tamp down the election tomorrow because 100% it comes down to turnout tomorrow, and if the republicans do not turn out because they feel it's rigged or, you know, the system is against donald trump and the republicans, that could be the difference right there. ainsley: so many people that voted for president trump, assume all of them who voted for president trump, are heart broken because their guy, it appears, is not going to be certified on wednesday. and they don't want to see that happen in georgia, they don't want these mail-in votes, they're worried about the election in four more years and how what happened during covid will affect the changes in four more years. so it's extremely important. and mark levin on his show over the weekend, he was talking about how if you live in georgia and you're a republican, please go and vote, please do this for me, do this for the rest of the country because georgia's voice will affect all of us. steve: right. and so it's going to be really important what the president says tonight in dalton, georgia. ainsley: right. steve: if he continues to say it's rigged and, you know, it was stolen from him, that may once again tamp things down. but then again, same time, the balance of power in the senate is hanging on those two seats. iowans iowans yep. and there's a group of lawmakers that have gotten together, and they have said we're going to challenge wednesday, because wednesday the votes are formally counted. and most people believe, you know, joe biden -- certified -- will be the president. so you've got this group that's worried about voter integrity like many of you are worried about, and so they are going to -- what are they calling it? they're calling it, they're challenging the electoral college certification. they're appointing a commission to investigate the fraud, and they're calling for a 10-day audit of the election results. james lankford said no matter how it turns out, we want the truth to come out. even if you don't believe it was rigged, but many of you do, and if there is integrity, if voter integrity is on the line, the electoral integrity is on the line, why not investigate just to make sure those people who believe that it was rigged, that they have peace of mind? brian: i just don't know what they're going to do different that his legal team hasn't done in the battleground statements in the 60 cases. a lot of the frustration is because a lot of these judges say they'll another going -- i'm not going to hear the case. that really is the frustration, why marsha blackburn has joined the other 12 like john kennedy, senator haggerty, marshall, loomis and tommy tube orerville and 100 plus in the house. ainsley: and it's worked before, right? brian: i don't know if you consider it working, 1876 the commission to cut a deal that allowed rut orerford b. hayes to be president, we'll taken troops out of south carolina and florida after reconstruction, after the civil war if you just let this guy be president, and you don't pay attention to the second group of electors that was just pushed in in front. so, again, i'm not sure we're going to cut that deal today or what that deal would look like. senator marsha blackburn is marching forward. >> when there are allegations of fraud and when there's all this conversation that is taking place around the election results, one of the things that we should do is define the problem and then offer an action item that will get us to a solution. and that's exactlily what we are doing. exactly what we are doing and what we said we would do in our statement in putting in place a commission that would conduct a review of what transpired, investigate the allegations. that is the appropriate, respectful step to take. it is constitutional. brian: vulnerable people not taking that step, senator tom cotton and a group of seven house republicans including congressman chip roy, people worried about the process. they know the president is upset about it and we know there's some problems, but not many people want to take this constitutional step. it's dividing the republican party. steve: sure. and, you know, ted cruz who is onboard with it, he is presumed to be somebody who would want to run for president in 2024 as is tom cotton, and tom cotton said not counting the electoral votes would take away the power to choose the prosecute president people -- president from the people and establish unwise precedents. anyways, he does support a commission and to talk a little bit about are form which we've been talking about for three hours. meanwhile, news time at 8:12 eastern time. jillian?

what about the invest into hunter biden where you said that was russian propaganda? what about the facts that came out now that are now confirmed by places like "the new york times" and e-mails that are now out, an investigation that we now know is ongoing? what about the fact the tweet the, the coup has started, rebellion and impeachment to follow ultimately? what about that story? he did not bring that up when it came down to chris krebs who said this election has been the pure pest ever -- pure ifest ever. -- purest ever. he was worried about foreign entities, and he talked about the substance of his investigation that his network never covered. >> you know, i really think that chuck todd here did just a terrible job, but it's to be expected from a lot of these corporate media entities who have essentially looked away from anything that they dislike, anything that they don't want to cover about what's happened the last several years. they've pretended like things have been the way they wanted them to be as opposed to the way that they actually are. it's humpty dumpty e and through the looking glass. words mean what i want them to mean as opposed to the actual definition, and that's something that i think is going to be a continuing problem in the future because this is not going to a situation where they change or alter any of their behavior. and we've learned that from the last several years. we've seen the degree to which they're willing to participate in this, you know, ridiculous and over the top, you know, approach to covering politics where they pretend like duly-elected republican members are in some way conspiracy theorists, that they're, you know, out there on the extreme as opposed to raising legitimate issues that a lot of americans cower about. brian: ben, real quick, are you on the side of tom cotton, investigate it but let the electoral college cert fire, or are you in the camp of ted cruz, 10-day pause? >> i i think you have to sort of stake out your position and say we would really like to get an investigation into this. we would like to have a commission on this. and i completely understand the people who are making that argument. on the flip side, i also have a lot of respect for people like you mentioned congressman chip roy, a longtime friend of mine who basically says i'm worried if we go down this road, we're going to put the whole electoral the college road at risk. the real issue that i sigh see here, brian, is we do not have an approach that will allow us to investigate, to find the facts about this and to be able to bring them to the american poo. as it currently stands, we have not addressed these types of things in the past, and if we're going to have mail-in balloting, have this approach that was used in this election going forward, people need to be able to have trust and faith in it, and that's not something i i think we're going to get out of this process. brian brian and we should have had this mechanism after 1960. here we are in 2020. we'll get a look at that. it's going to be an interesting next few days. to me, it's simple: win georgia, help win back the house and then go get the white house back. we'll see if he can pull that you have off. meanwhile, he really feels like this was taken away from him. ben, thanks. always great to talk to you. speaking of president trump, he and joe biden hold dueling rallies. former house speakerrer of the peach state newt gingrich is here live with his predictions. ♪ ♪ research shows people remember commercials with nostalgia. so to help you remember that liberty mutual customizes your home insurance, here's one that'll really take you back. it's customized home insurance from liberty mutual! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ caspers new year sale is here! on a new cozy bedroom and wake up on the right side of the bed this year. from the fluffiest down duvet you'll ever feel. crisp and light percale sheets, to cool, supportive mattresses and plush pillow for your best nights sleep. treat yourself to a new year of comfort and shop the new year sale with up to 15% off at casper.com ♪ ♪ ainsley: were back with a live look at times square in new york city as the big apple struggles during the pandemic. the state of new york saw a record decline in population. grady trimble from our sister networks fox business, joins us live from chicago with more as illinois also saw a mass exodus. grady? >> reporter: good morning, ainsley. many americans are starting the new year in a new state. we were already seeing this trend of people leaving high-tax states before the pandemic, and then the pandemic sped it right up. as you mentioned, new york and illinois leading with the largest amount of population loss between july of 2019 and july of 2020. california not too far behind. illinois, by the way, has seen its population shrink by a greater amount each of the last seven years, so why is this happening? well, high taxes certainly play a part, but people are also looking to live in areas where they can afford a bigger house with more space during the pandemic. and with work from home continuing into 2021, it is likely people who have moved will stay put, and the trend might even continue more. as far as the states that people are moving to, the top three are texas, florida and arizona. one thing you might notice about a all three of those states, they are known for their warmer weather as i stand here in the snow in chicago. and two of those three states, texas and florida, ainsley, have no state the income tax. so is that just a countries dense? what do you think? ainsley: steve and i were talking earlier, grady, that our christmas card list changed so much because so many people have left this area, and all of my friends that moved down to florida, they're not coming back, unfortunately. thanks, grady. steve, over to you. he's steefs ainsley, thank you. president trump and president-elect joe biden making their final pitch to georgia votersed today with dueling rallies ahead of tomorrow's crucial runoff elections. that will decide which party controls the u.s. senate. fox news contributor and former speaker of the house newt gingrich joins us. he knows a thing or two about georgia. he's from there. newt, good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: so if the president of the united states goes to dalton, georgia, tonight and he says, listen, i want you to vote for kelly loeffler and david perdue but then also gets into, you know, the election in november was rigged and it was stolen from me, are you one of the republicans who worries that could actually discourage turn tomorrow? because it's all about turnout tomorrow. >> no, look, i think trump's going to be trump, whatever that means. and the people who love him are going to go along with it. his job tonight is to remind his supporters which, you know, repalin party -- republican party has a huge base -- that they need to get out and vote tomorrow. i think he'll do that. and if they do get out and vote tomorrow and if the 8,000 poll watchers, the most in history, watch carefully e the counting of the ballot, i suspect late tomorrow night or early on wednesday we'll find out that senator perdue and senator loeffler have been elected. but i'm not very worried. i mean, there's no point -- if you want to get trump to come down, he'll be trump. steve: yeah. >> and it's huguely unlikely that he's not going to say something about how he feels and about the rex results -- the election results in georgia, but he's also going to tell people that the only way to change it is to go vote. and so if you care for his values and you care for the values that have traditionally been american, you have to go vote. and, by the way, the house democrats just reaffirmed that both by having the opening prayer end with amen and i awoman which is language wise totally stupid and then by having in their rules a proposal to abolish 26 words like father, mother, daughter to create gender security. just a reminder to the average georgia began when we say radical, we mean radical, because that's who they are. steve: newt, georgia has changed a lot since you were running for office down there back in the day. the county was with, obviously, a newt gingrich stronghold, but now it's a democratic stronghold. what is happening to the political profile of georgia? >> well, it's a fascinating demographic. what basically happened that strong republican voters have moved further and further out to small towns and communities like dalton or like rome, like gainesville. and at the same time, people who were crammed into the center of atlanta have, as they've gotten with think, i mean, one of the great virtues of the trump economy was the lowest black unemployment rate in history. well, as people get more money, they like to move to the suburbs which is perfectly normal. and, by the way, trump got a much higher black and latino vote this year,9 and the republican party has consistently been doing better because, again, people who are earning a living, working hard tend to have an increasing bias towards us and towards lower taxes. and you've had some two dozen african-american pastors come out and attack raphael warnock for being so rabidly pro-abortion and so willing to use tax money to pay for abortion. is so there are values issues there too. and i think that you'll find that we do better or continue to do better with asian, la e tee know and african-american votes as how high tax and, frankly, how high unemployment the democrats are. steve: unique analysis. newt gingrich, sir, thank you very much. we'll see what happens. all right, meanwhile, straight ahead, house minority leader kevin mccarthy called out democrats for radical policies. he's here next as the new congress faces a very busy e first week. and from our friends at fox bet, download the fox bet super 6 app and i play the georgia senate runoffs game for a chance to win $10,000. get six possible outcomes, then watch fox news tomorrow to see how it unfolds. download the fox bet super 6 app right now to get started, and we will be right back. hung. ♪ i discovered my great aunt ruth signed up as a nursing cadet for world war ii. you see this scanned-in, handwritten document. the most striking detail is her age. she was only 17. knowing that she saw this thing happening and was brave enough to get involved and do something- that was eye opening. bring your family history to life like never before. get started for free at ancestry.com to life like never before. >i spend a lot of time sin my truck.y?

>> i don't think that's in her nature to ever want to work with republicans. we've seen it time and again. but if you watch what's going to happen on the floor today, they're going to change the rules. and they're changing the rules only to cheat the minority. and they're not just changing the rule that's been around for a little while, it's been for the history of the entire congress, the minority has always a had the ability to offer an amendment on a bill. they are taking that away. they're trying to silence our vote, they're trying to silence our speech. in essence, our constituents. and watch what she did yesterday, such a razor thin to even win the speakership, she brought a member back who has not been to congress since may and had covid starting on december 28th and was not, did not test negative before she allowed that person to come back. that is how fearful she is of losing this majority and changing the rules on this floor. how is that allowed? they have the votes, that's the unfortunate part. and think about it, for every single democrat that voted for nancy pelosi, they voted to put a person back on the intel committee, swalwell, who's been with the chinese only because she could not are move that person because she needed his vote for speaker. steve: that says a lot. let's talk about this, there was a recording like people have never heard before where the president of the united states is on the phone talking to the georgia secretary of state and his general counsel, mark meadows was there in the oval office and things like that. it sounds like the president is telling brad rathensberger, hey, gotta find about 12,000 votes because this was stolen from me, they're there somewhere. how do you interpret what you heard and what you read about what the president and the georgia secretary of state were talking about? >> what i read about the president's always been concerned about the integrity of the election. and the president believes that there are things that happened in georgia, and he wants to see the accountability for it. but, look, does anybody in america think the last election was done well?

do you think they'll flip-flop on that if they win, these democrats? >> oh, they're going to flip-flop on it. they can't give -- they can't say amen to a prayer? you cannot saw you're a father, a son, a mother or a daughter? you cheat the minority on a vote on the floor. they're not coming closer to what the american people want, they're going further away to protect their extreme radical views. the only thing in the democratic party that grew was the squad. you know, not one republican lost in the last election, and what their whole mantra -- the last congress was the least productive congress in 50 years. did they change the course to make it more open for more voices to be heard? so you'd have more input? they reelected a speaker who went the entire summer who said it's better to do nothing on covid than to do something, and they want to accuse the republicans of not acting? they want to defund the police while our streets were burning, they chanted. that is why the republicans are are going to hold to our commitment to america to rebuild this nation, to restore integrity. brian: right. and, of course, even in you talk about our states being safe. in portland 200 plus days of protest, the left wing mayor finally says i've had it with antifa, i've tried to reason with you, now we're going to crack down. good luck. half your cops quit. that is the blueprint that these democratic candidates want the rest of the country to have which is just astounding to me this hasn't been said more. let's see if the president brings it up tonight, i have a hunch he will. again, kevin mccarthy the, not enough people give you credit for what happened in the house. you had less money, less publicity but produced a phenomenal result and not one seat lost. thanks so much for joining us today. >> thank you very much. brian: all right. straight awe ahead, with less than 24 hours out from the first polls opening in georgia, can their votes sway who controls the senate?
