More than 100 g. O. P. Lawmakers are vowing to challenge that Electoral College certification of the president ial Election Results. Brian yep. This is a good day not to run a repeat there is so much live stuff. Live with Team Coverage as pete hegseth is on the ground in washington and will cain is not. We left him in georgia. We could not get a ticket. Also we have that whole runoff race to focus on. So, will, first off, with you, on the ground, one election decided. One not. Will thats absolutely right. As we wake up this morning, brian, it looks like Rafael Warnock has won the senate race in georgia. While the race between david perdue and jon ossoff is too close to call. The big story, the big take away for me is obviously how it impacts the nation. This wasnt just a local race. This was a national race. How it defines the democratic agenda for the next two years, possibly the next four years. But this also, brian, this also, ainsley and steve. How it predicts future elections in this country. What it says about who might win races in texas, and florida, and arizona and places like that in the future. The absolutely revolutionary impact of mailin balloting in the year 2020 and now early in 2021. Here is Raphael Warnock last night declaring victory as Kelly Loeffler says she is not giving up. Georgia, i am honored by the faith that you have shown in me. I am going to the senate to work for all of georgia. No matter who you cast your vote for in this election. And im not going to stop working in the morning, in fact, im going to be heading to washington, d. C. To keep fighting for manying were going to fight for this president. Stay in the fight for us. We are going to keep fighting for you. Im never going to stop fighting for this country, for the american dream, for each one of you so that every georgian has a voice in washington. If. Ainsley will, thank you so much for that report. We will check in with you throughout the, morning. Will okay. Ainsley i talked to a georgian yesterday when the state go purple or mr. She believes in this case. She list in the atlanta area. She says warnock is considered he has the obama affect in the state of georgia. Especially in the atlanta area. He is the pastor of Ebenezer Baptist churn. Many Martin Luther kings church. And that carries a lot of weight. He would be the first or the first africanamerican democratic senator from a confederate state. When i asked her about ossoff she said he is young, he is vibrant. He are promised 2,000 checks to everyone. Big tech. He is get genz vote on tiktok and snapchat on the time. If he wins the youngest elected democratic senator since joe biden he is 33 years old. I asked him what about Kelly Loeffler . What about david perdue . She said the people im talking to dont feel like they are very strong candidates to what the Democratic Party brought to our state. Steve will may have said that this was a national election. But, really it was the people of georgia who got to decide. And when you look at the campaign that this reverend warnock ran twice, because they had the run off again. He really tapped into voter frustration. He promised to enact new Voting Rights bills Going Forward. He said,like, we need, obviously, more affordable healthcare. And also what he did was he said im going to try to get more money for coronavirus. And, ainsley, you were talking about the 2,000 check. Thats part of the coronavirus thing. But when you look at the Fox News Voter Analysis it is pretty clear that six in 10 democrats think the number one issue facing the country right now, 6 in 10 is coronavirus. Meanwhile, when you look at the republicans, three in 10 think the coronavirus is the Biggest Issue and, of course, the comeerks according to our voter analysis, number one. Ainsley talk to people now they are saying im sick of politics now i want this vaccine. Steve other thing and we are requesting to be talking about this throughout the day, is, you know, yesterday we were talking about the Washington Post article that said that the president felt that if they lost the republicans he would get of the blame. And he would not get the credit did they won. And this morning already, people are talking about well, you know, the fact that the president did say it was rigged and all those things like that, did that have an impact . You have got Dave Wasserman at the cook report, he says the republicans seem to have had a turnout problem because because in the counties north of atlanta, which are white and rural for the most part as many republicans did not turn out. Wheres is in the atlanta suburbs the turnout was epic, brian. Brian there is nothing that will, ainsley, or you, steve, said thats inaccurate. We are still speculating and waiting on one race to come in. Lets look at the overall picture. Whats happened in five weeks . David perdue won by 88,000 votes and when the libertarian out you would think he is going to win 100,000 votes. What happened warnock if you look at yeah, he was highest in the jungle primary but when you look at the combined republican votes he should have lost by about 10. What happened over the last six weeks . While republicans were at each others throat and there is a belief in georgia that the election is not accurate. That its been stolen. When asked, are you confident that all voters all votes were counted accurately in the 2020 election on november 3rd. 98 of democrats said yes. 30 of republicans. So that could have led to the turnout problem although we dont know if we got over the million that republicans needed on the walkup, meaning yesterday for them to be successful. Overall, warnock won, perdue is losing by 16,000. Will Katie Pavlich came to this conclusion about the country. The far left is gaining ground in places all across america, arizona is one of them. In georgia, in particular, this is supposed to be a reliably red state. And Raphael Warnock and jon ossoff are no joe manchin democrats. They are far left california style democrats. The idea that the left was able to swoop into georgia, get a number of new democrats registered and take these runoff races to this close of a margin against usual, typical republicans in georgia real is i less a lot about the organization and the Republican Party is going to have to catch up and defend their turf. I would say looking at texas in the future is something they have got to keep an eye on 5050 chairman championship for democrats 50 50 because of the Vice President obviously. Stopped counting. Basically have 16,000 vote lead for jon ossoff unaccomplished 33yearold but talented young person. Who will be the youngest senator to go in if he gets this since this guy joe biden who won at 28 years old. 17,000 military ballots yet to be counted. 4,000 absentee parking lots yet to be counted and are county that need to be tallied. They stopped. They will start, i believe during our show. Steve great. Stay tuned for that. So we actually might have a winner in the next couple hours. Ainsley Griff Jenkins joins us live in washington where congress is set to certify the president ial Election Results today. Griff, there is a big rally there. Republicans are furious. Many of them are. Griff earth thats right. Ainsley, brian, steve. We are expecting thousands of Trump Supporters out here rally. 17th street in washington outside the old executive building. The zans here to the ellipse. A lot of people in the press you see going in behind me. We are waiting to get through security ourselves. But you know the focus today, guys, is the tough day. The loilgt test that Vice President mike pence is going to face today. Now, his problems really began right around 1 00 a. M. When President Trump tweeted this. He says if Vice President mike pence comes through for us, we will win the presidency. Many states want to decertify the mistakes they made incorrect and even fraudulent numbers in a process not approved irby their state legislatures, which it might be, mike can send it back. But the New York Times reports this morning that pence told the president he did not have the power to block congressional certification to which the president also put out a statement saying, quote the New York Times report regarding the comments Vice President pence supposedly made to me is fake news. He never said that the Vice President and i are in total agreement that the Vice President has the power to act. So, heres what we know at this time. Vice president pence will preside over the Electoral College certification. His role is largely ceremonial in overseeing the certification. We will see what happens. It begins at 1 00 p. M. Today. Pay attention, particularly to senators loeffler, hawley and cruz leading objections for the certification of the states of georgia, arizona, and pennsylvania. Last night on hannity, cruz had this to say. Listen. There are far too many people in washington who are saying dismiss the claims out of hand. Dont look at them. Dont consider them. That congress has to have a blindfold on. I dont think thats right. I think we have an obligation to the constitution to defend the rule of law. Joining the senators are more than 100 House Republicans but the effort is not expected to succeed because when they vote on the will thats the math doesnt add up. Just to understand how much of a hail mary this is all three would have to succeed to again to open up a path for what President Trump is suggesting well have to wait and find out. By the way, just another note in an interesting point on how crazy things seem today the government is hard at work. There is a story this morning reports that the National Security agencies are being briefed on possible threats iran are making to avenge the death of soleimani. Brian, ainsley, steve . Brian go ahead, steve. Steve thank you very much, griff. Apparently on monday i will explain a little more about that story that griff was just talking about. On monday, new york air Traffic Controllers intercepted a message, a threat was heard and they said the voice it was a synthetic voice, Computer Generated we are flying a plane into the capitol on wednesday, soleimani will be avenged. Of course, soleimani is the iranian general taken out with a thrown strike. The government does not believe that this is a credible threat; however, the pentagon believes that the threat is designed to suggest hitting the capitol the same day congress is set to go ahead and certify the Electoral College vote. So who is behind it in the iranians . Some political mischief maker . Tonight know, brian. Brian couple of things. One element earlier point that griff made in his report is about the Vice President michael pence, mostly ceremonial position it is. There is video of joe biden saying the same thing to the squad who was standing up protesting Donald Trumps election because these democrats, who were upset at President Trump for not accepting the result of the Electoral College, most of which are the same ones that never accepted donald trump as president in 2016. So you have absolutely no credibility. Many number two, Vice President mike pence has been as loyal as anybody has ever been to anybody in the history of man. If you ask is Kellyanne Conway all the way down the block, her quote is this Vice President pence has been as loyal to the country, constitution and president the last four years as anybody. Anybody who is reading into 2024 political calculations into his role into the certification process today doesnt know him. He doesnt he is really helpless to stop the Electoral College results. He will gavel in, gavel out. There will be the protest that could go all kay. They will have the 11 cruz leave 11 senator. Talk about three states in particular. There will be dozens of members of the house doing their protest and after hours, i believe the Electoral College will be certified but i dont believe up are going down the right path. If anyone is blaming mike pence for the results of the november 3rd election, ainsley. Ainsley all right. So here is the agenda today. 11 00 a. M. In washington is the march for trump. The president is going to be there outside of the white house and he is going to address the cloud. Then at 1 00 he is thats when Congress Gets together and they certify. There are 140, roughly, republicans that are going to protest this. They are going to object to it. And there will be a march to save america at 1 00 p. M. On the steps outside of the u. S. Capitol. I talked to one friend whose mother is going and she is very worried for her moms safety. Lets bring in Pete Hegseth Fox Friends Weekend cohost from the national mall. What are they doing to make sure everyone is safe, pete . Pete well, there is a big presence here. Police presence, National Guard presence. No doubt about that. Safety front and center, especially considering there were multiple arrests last night out front of the white house. But you mentioned that rally. Its right behind me is the stage march to save america rally. To save america here at 11 00. The president will be speaking there. His son, don jr. , acre trump, a number of representatives and then organizers from the event will be speaking from that stage. And then about a half mile behind that of course capitol hill where the certification of the Electoral College results will take place. And there could be additional protests throughout the day that are rolling. I think its fair, guys, to describe and i dont think its hyperbole to describe this moment as a constitutional tinderbox. You look at those the voter analysis from georgia and i think that holds right now now across our country. You have a vast majority of democrats believing that the election was legitimate. And you have got up to 0 of republicans and Trump Supporters who belief there was significant voter fraud. That the election was stolen. And as a result, a presidency of joe biden would be illegitimate and when you have got a certification and an objection of popular senators and house members, a Vice President presiding and a president who is clearly frustrated with all of you who its been handled and will be speaking from that stage in just mere hours, its unclear how things will unfold today but there is no doubt we remain a country divided. You can feel it here in washington, d. C. That division, guys. Pete hey, pete, isnt it amazing that the mayor of d. C. Is asking the National Guard to help out. Same National Guard she wouldnt allow to stay overnight in a hotel that she disparaged a few months ago . Steve pete was part of that. Brian you were wearing the camouflage. Pete i was wearing the camouflage last time now im carrying the microphone. We will see how things unfold. Listen, its better to be safe than sorry in this particular instance, i think. But you are right. There is always a characterization that its Trump Supporters that are the ones that are going to be the problem. When the reality is those are peaceful protests ongoing. Its the antifa folks they should be keeping an eye on. Brian thanks, folks. Steve speaking of antifa. We told you yesterday that josh hawleys house in the washington, d. C. Area got a visit from antifas protesters a couple of nights ago as you can see them outlines of his house. Remember, he, josh hawley, from the great state of missouri is one of the senators objecting to the Electoral College vote certification later on today. He was on with laura last night and had this observation about those people with the mega phones outside his house while he was in missouri and his wife was inside terrified. I love this a
