Country musics biggest night. Entertainer of the year goes to keith urban. God bless you all, thank you. Forevermore it sure feel like winners, the 15th day of november, 2018. The good news is it is cold here and soon we will have rain on the west coast in a few days. That will help with the fires a little bit. Cutting into janice deans time. Ainsley the first time. In the Northern Plains to the midwest. A lot going on. Speaking of down south, james mattis, secretary of defense on the southern border. Helping to augment the work of Border Patrol. And and he met some of the 55,000 troops supporting our Border Patrol. Anybody who thinks this is a big show in the big stunned, i dont think you mentioned general mattis yesterday. That sort of thing. Concentrate on what your Company Commander, Battalion Commander tells you. When the secretary decided Border Patrol needed help, not because i rented a suit. You dont care if you are male or female, we dont care where you go to church. There is trouble out there, you keep the faith, trouble looms and you go towards the trouble to help. He said just do your job, dont listen to the noise, dont listen to folks in new york and hollywood, doing news reports because you guys are doing your job. And they are not getting combat pay. And jeff flake, like you said, it is a stunt. Brian he will say anything to make the president look bad on his way out. We did this 100 years ago, in 1916, always did this, when times of trouble you put your troops on the border. Not be arresting people, supporting Border Patrol. Allowing Border Patrol to do what they can do. Pete the secretary of defense in texas and yesterday on the program we told you how hundreds of migrants arriving in the tijuana area. Close to 800 have arrived, they were set up so migrants waiting to apply for asylum or trying to figure out what they are doing in the New York Times. If they get caught they will be deported. Some of the images from wednesday where they are looking to the United States. Ainsley the razor wire forms large rails like an accordion. And the migrant workers, in the Border Patrol agent. The problem for tijuana, they are camped out in tijuana. Scores of people in the shoulders, not hundreds and not thousands and they are looking at thousands of people in the worry is, all sorts of violence as a potential. All those people going to tijuana and they are going what are we going to endorse with the mexican government, can you give us 4 million for two months. Havent heard back from the mexican government. General general boykin was on, so many veterans in need, that need quality tests. Theres people in america that are desperate needs. You got to keep that in mind, got to respect the law, understand what is going on at the border and there were people in dire need that are paying tax dollars for american services, 4 million check that could be going for americans. Is a grandfather of 6 otherwise a grandfather teach my grandchildren to respect laws, a spectacle like this, flaunting the fact they are breaking our laws. Meanwhile, i will be speaker. Pete nancy pelosi after a night of drinking . Dont know about the drinking part. Brian of problem for the former speaker. Theres a group of House Democrats who say they have enough votes to block her from getting the job. A list circulating with 17 names on it, members of congress pledging to vote against her when they do vote for the next speaker on january 3rd and five more. She needs 218 people to say we want her. They have 229. That means if she loses 22, she will be in trouble. Jillian congressmans of molten says no one else has come out because they dont want to alienate nancy pelosi supporters. Once it is clear they have enough votes to block her from becoming speaker someone will step to the plate. The one who wants to cover my and get things done, Kathleen Rice, put herself in that category. Shes against nancy pelosi, socalled never nancy movement. I find this amazing. At a time in which nancy pelosi whether you love her or hate her she helped deliver the house, kept everything together, formulated the resistance. You might say she is effective. The guy who gets renewed all the time is senator schumer. What did he do . All he did his rant and rave and not cut deals with the president and he gets red carpet treatment to the leadership. Pete Chuck Schumer will keep his job, Mitch Mcconnell will keep his job, Steve Scalise was selected as House Minority whip. Kevin mccarthy beat jim jordan substantially, 15943, for House Minority leader. And talking yesterday he says he was talking about nancy pelosi but keep in mind republicans like the idea of nancy pelosi as speaker because they have been very effective in demonizing her in close house races where there are a lot of moderates and if they put her up and use her as a pinata it is helpful. Rob Steve Scalise thinks nancy pelosi deserves it. I think they deserve nancy pelosi as speaker but i dont want to see it. I went through 2 and half years of nancy pelosi as speaker and came in not long after kevin and she was speaker, you saw what she did to the country, they rammed through obamacare with the famous you got to pass the bill to find out what is in it. Brian if there is a rival, mister ryan has run against her in the past, you figure he would like to try that again. Nobody has come forward and said if you dont vote for her vote for me. Jillian they have a few days to get the list in order and get a letter out. Pete this era of hashtag me too is a time to oust, historic revisiting of the female speaker . Is that the time for democrats to have that type of optic . To go to seth molson or tim ryan . Brian on the republican side, lynn cheney, House Republican conference chair. Number 3 republican spot in the house and she will be joining us later today. Speaking of later today, today is deadline day in florida. Counties have a number of hours to finish recounts, the heated battle over the u. S. Senate seat stirring even more controversy. Pete lets call it election season. And counties making progress.

Reporter good morning. Look behind me. Look at this video. The staffers celebrating because they are almost done. Only 80 plus ballots were damaged and had to be duplicated. They are preparing for an anticipated hand recount involving 30,000 over and under votes. In Palm Beach County they wont make it. The election supervisor was in, quote, prayer mode. Lawsuits playing out today whether she might get an extension. No question how that may affect the rest of the entire state. We will find out. More questions remain. Problems continue to plague Broward County. The election supervisor, yesterday the secretary of state sent a letter to the Us Attorneys Office about affidavits for vote by mail ballots in four counties. They will returned in before the election but could be turned in two days after, causing problems. Snipes said she caught them, do not accept those ballots but did not tell the secretary of state. A crime to alter anything like this. Should you still be reporting it . Even if they werent successful. Reporter they will get the recount done in broward but these problems remain. We will find out if that happens. Brian the supervisor in Palm Beach County says shes in prayer mode, praying they are able to get at least one of the recounts done by 3 00 this afternoon. Pete jeb bush said senator nelson stopped the lawsuit, the meaning your entire career by the way you seem to be going out. Pete we will keep you posted on that, 6 11 in new york city. Jillian joins us with a story. Jillian at least 39 people confirmed dead as wildfires burn across california. The fire fueled by wind scorching 150 acres near los angeles and brandnew drone video shows the devastation caused by the camp fire, 88 homes completely destroyed in the town of paradise. Interior secretary ryan think he touring the devastation with jerry brown. He says it is the worst he has ever seen. Michael avenatti, attorney for stormie daniels, denies Domestic Violence allegations. I have never struck a woman. I never will strike a woman. I am looking forward to a full investigation at which point i have confidence that i will be fully exonerated. Jillian he was arrested after an alleged confrontation at his los angeles apartment with an unidentified woman. The cma awards rocking nashville, brad paisley and Carrie Underwood praised for leaving politics out of the show.

Nikki urban pulled off the Biggest Surprise taking home entertainer of the year. Fun had by all. Love you so much. Rob there were no politics in that. I admire the outfit for winning entertainer of the year. Used to get yelled at when i left the house. Thank you very much. The media are buzzing over a possible white house shakeup including the president s top staff but are these changes to the cabinet that unusual . Our next guest have a History Lesson for all of us. Ion to det, and Customer Service are critical to business success. Like the ones we teach here, every day. On the new sleep number 360 smart bed. It senses your movement and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable. And now, the queen sleep number 360 c4 smart bed is only 1299. Plus 24month financing on all beds. Ends sunday. And an ice plant. Rs with 70megawatts, 35 mules, but we brought power to the people redefining what that meant from one era to the next. Over 90 years later we continue to build as one of the nations largest investors in infrastructure. We dont just help power the american dream. Were part of it. This is our era. This is Americas Energy era. Nextera energy if theres one thing all a deal is a deal. On, and congress has already made one to help americas seniors pay less for their prescriptions. But now, Drug Companies are lobbying congress, trying to force seniors to pay more so they can boost profits. But a deal is a deal. And the president has pledged to end price gouging by Drug Companies. We will no longer accept the inflated prices being charged to our seniors. Protect seniors, not drug company profits. Hi susan hs honey . I respect that. But that cough looks pretty bad. Try this new robitussin honey. The real honey you love. Plus the powerful cough relief you need. Mind if i root through your trash . New robitussin honey. Because its never just a cough. Pete the Mainstream Media going crazy over staff changes that the west wing is new reports suggest Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Neilsen and john kelly could be on the way out. When you take a look at the second year of the Ford Administration donald trump made the same number of cabinet changes as president clinton. Only two more than president obama. Do we just love the palace intrigue . Is the president getting too much scrutiny in this area . When i went to work on white house senior staff in 1989 before you were born, at the time they told the average length of stay on white house senior staff was 1. 5 years, reagan had four chiefs of staff, so did bill clinton. Barack obama had five. George w. Bush had five. Secretaries of the treasury. Jimmy carter, who was only an office for four years, had six acting secretaries of state. This is very common. You change the staff depending on what new things need to be accomplished in the white house, constantly changing. Brian of the eight that left, six cabinet officials, six a resigned, two are promoted. They were just moved, one from cia to secretary of state, kelly with homeland it is chief of staff. It doesnt show chaos. It is logical to think a businessman who never held political office, who wasnt in washington insider would have to rotate people out to get the people he wanted, to figure out who likes him and who can do the job. Sadly there is a big difference. That is absolutely right. It is not necessarily that the person leaving did a bad job at all but new things he wants to accomplish and new people with skills who have them to do. I will say this, the lobby of trump, very healthy, comments and speaking up for herself. You may know all about the world and be the smartest person on earth about the world, you are not smart enough to figure out you need to treat the president s wife and her staff, the president s. A, soninlaw and staff with respect, you are not smart enough to work in the white house. Very impressed with milania trump. Brian she pushed out john boltons deputy because of the way he treated her staff on the africa trip and the way she treated evidence and not worthy of the white house and for those people who dont think milania has the president s back, you have never been around those two. This is about the president getting loyalty around him and she has great instincts. Appreciate your perspective. Coming up straight ahead, one Top Democrats as people in Trump Country are telling them this. They trump, some think we like what he is doing. We went congress to make them accountable. Brian Jason Chaffetz reacting to the larger comingss comments. Deadline day in florida, democrats may have sent faulty ballots. Katherine harris certified the 2000 result, shes here to react next, dont move. I am a family man. I am a techie dad. I believe the best technology should feel effortless. Like magic. At comcast, its my job to develop, apps and tools that simplify your experience. My name is mike, im in Product Development at comcast. Were working to make things simple, easy and awesome. Ainsley some quick headlines, mike pence and russian president Vladimir Putin shaking hands in singapore. The world leaders, before the Vice President heads to Papua New Guinea for a news conference. Pence is standing in for donald from. A live look at parliament where teresa may is making her case for a new brexit plan. He claimed support for the draft is in national interest, two brexit officials calling it quits over the deal, among several critics of the plan that will allow britain to the part from the eu. Pete and ballot drama in the sunshine state, the state department asking federal prosecutors to look at allegations democrat sent out faulty mail in ballots to voters in four counties. The forms a greatly stating voters could return them three days after the election despite the fact they were actually do the day before on november 5th. Here to react katherine harris, former florida secretary of state in the 2000 election recount, certifies George Washington won the vote in florida. What is going on in florida . Looks like it is deja vu all over again. Rodney dangerfield. This was always going to happen. We passed election laws that are the model for the nation. This is not a matter of laws that will work, it is a matter of people exercising those laws. Brian a lot of criticism of brenda snipes, supervisor in Broward County. What do you make of that . She has a history that is not a very positive one. She is a supervisor of elections which means shes a constitutional officer elected by the county. They have autonomy in the only person who can remove them is the governor, not the secretary of state. Brian Governor Scott has had the chance here. Obviously it will be difficult for him to do so now since pete given the fact we are hearing this story, this time and that, we question the integrity of what is going on. It is not a problem. The exercise of the rule of law that prohibit the arbitrary use of power and focus on existing welldefined laws. If someone isnt doing that. Pete does politics come into play . I cant answer that. Im not there on the ground. What we are really focused on is trying to protect the law, you have to live with yourself the rest of your life. We protected al gores legal rights. Everyone else was working on political liability and at the end this have harbor act was rule of law. Pete as people watch how these officials executed the election, they have the signature match thing, the judge that i will give you two days to break this out. The machines dont work and one of the fellows who is a very tight race told us i went to bed, i was 5000 ahead and got up the next day they found tens of thousands of new ballots. That is ridiculous. What i think is important is as long as they follow the law, you have the court change, politicians change it and arbitrarily change these laws there are unintended consequences. The Florida Supreme Court refused to grant a statement after recounts, consequently we had an equal protection under the law and we won because they on
