Sure that were the firewall to stopping the radical agenda of Chuck Schumer. He wants to fundamentally change this country. Thats why im crisscrossing the state, why davids out every single day. We need georgians to turn out and vote. Paul lets bring in our panel, wall street journal columnist and deputy Editorial Page EditorDan Henninger and columnist kim strassel, bill mcgurn and Mary Anastasia ogrady. Ing so, kim, the republicans running as a check on a biden presidency and Chuck Schumer senate, but what in particular are they running on . What issues . Well, that is a lot of it, and you hear them talking about what could happen under a biden presidency, a pelosi house and a Schumer Senate in terms of taxes, in terms of deregulation, in terms of the federal courts. You also see them talking a lot and trying to tie this socialist agenda into local georgia issues. In particular things like the defund the police movement, safety on the streets. The that had its way, antifa and riots and just suggesting that things like that would get worse in georgia under full democratic control in washington. Paul dan, what about a positive agenda . Doesnt sound like theres a lot of well get this, that and the other thing done. I guess with a biden presidency, are moneys cant hope to get republicans cant hope to get too much done. No, there really isnt. This is basically a negative campaign. Theyre running against one another. And, you know, keep in mind here, paul, there are no real superstar Senate Candidates. Theyre going to be reliable votes for east party, and either party, and all four candidates are essentially running as tickets, theyre not running as individuals. So i dont think were going to see ticket splitting here. The goal is simply to provide clarity about why you dont want to vote for the democrats or why you want to vote against the republicans, and that is the message that theyre trying to put across right here. Then the danger, i guess, is that if the president comes down there and starts talking about himself, it will sow confusion among some of these voters. Paul all right, mary, what about the democrats . I guess their argument is get rid of Mitch Mcconnell and let biden govern. Anything in particular theyre talking up . Well, you know, both sides are talking about getting out the vote. Thats really important. And so the democrats, the black vote in georgia is very important. Their bloc are largely democrats, but they need them to turn out. Kamala harris went to georgia at one point and promised more federal funding for blackowned enterprises, so theyre really targeting the black electorate in georgia. Paul bill, what about the role that donald trump dan referred to it, but his charges that the president ial race was stolen. What implication does that have . We dont know yet, whether that will alienate republicans. I think this is Donald Trumps i win one for the gipper moment. Hes endorsed these candidates, theyve both endorsed President Trump and support his policies, and he has go down there and rally the troops to get out the vote. If he does, theres no two ways about it, if he he loses meaning if the republicans lose in georgia hes going to be blaumed. If he blamed. If he wins, he at least has a more positive note. I do think if donald trump emphasizes the two Senate Candidates and says we need you to go out and vote for em, i think they will follow. But its a big with question. And they have some disadvantages. You know, jon ossoff ran 100,000 votes short of joe biden there. So its not about biden. Biden has no coattails in this. Its kind of coming down to trump and how enthusiastic he will be and how resentive his supporters receptive his supporters will be to his message to go out and vote for these other republicans. Paul kim, the other issue is this issue of the 2,000 stimulus check. 600 is what passed. What the president s negotiators agreed to in the senate and house bill. Then the president , after the fact, said, oh, i want it to be 2,000. Senate democrats jumped on that, passed a bill in the house to make that happen. And how big an issue how big a problem is that for loeffler and perdue . The. Well, you know, it was an unnecessary late problem because this was supposed to get done, this package, the checks were supposed to be headed out, and then suddenly, boom, this got dropped into it. And what its done has given the Senate Democratic candidates in georgia this brand new issue with which to beat their competitors and basically saying, you know, we democrats, we care more. And it put republicans in a very awkward spot in that some like the idea of bigger checks, others are very concerned about out of control spending. Paul and, dan, the early returns are that democratic turnout has been high in their areas. Theyve done about 80 or so by one reckoning of the turnout that they had early in the november election. Republicans only about twothirds. So thats going to put to us in on them to really do is the onus on them to do really, really well on election day once again. Yeah. And it puts the onus on donald trump at that rally to turn them out to vote in this election. I do think theres some concern among democrats that blacks in rural areas may not be as animated. And make no mistake, donald trump is there, but hes not on the ballot the way he was during the presidency. A lot of democrats voted in november against donald trump. This is about Senate Candidates, and i think maybe at the end of the day that could cost the democrats some votes in this election. Paul all right. Thank you all. Big stakes. When we come back, from the death of the filibuster to trillions of dollars in new taxes, the policy stakes in tuesdays georgia runoffs could not be higher. Our panel takes a closer look at whats in store if democrats do take control of the senate. Ok, just keep coloring there. And sweetie can you just be. Gentle with the pens. Okey. Okey. I know.

Turkey sub in a hot tub now get 15 off any footlong when you order in the app. Muck you just have to listen to Chuck Schumer. Take georgia, change america. What he means by that is he wants to change the filibuster rule, add two states, two democratic states, he wants to stack the Supreme Court and eventually change the way the Electoral College operates. That would allow them to perpetrate the agenda thats been the democratic platform that was displayed during the president ial election. Paul the policy stakes could not be higher as georgia voters head to the polls on tuesday. That was republican senator david perdue on fox earlier this week warning what a democratic majority in the senate would mean. Were back with our panel, Dan Henninger, kim strassel, bill mcgurn and Mary Anastasia ogrady. Dan, lets get specific here. What can the democrats do, what are they likely to do with 50 votes and control versus 48 or 49 . Well, i think the, paul, the most likely thing that theyre going to do is move on the tax front. Some of these oh things like the other things like the Electoral College and packing the court or term limits for justices require a constitutional amendment. But on the tax front, theyve got a lot of ammunition if they take the senate. Bernie sanders would become chairman of the budget committee, ron wyden would be head of finance, scherr odd brown of banking, Bernie Sanders, budget committee. And so they have a lot of ability to manipulate legislation to raise taxes on marginal rates, capital gains, the corporate rate. They want to push that up. And i think theyre going to spend a lot of money, we know that. They need that tax revenue, and i think thats the front as you can see them moving on right away rather than some of these other wish list items. Paul yeah. Bill, you dont need to have 60 votes under even current rules in the senate to be able to pass a tax increase or a budget bill. They can do that with 50 and Kamala Harris vote, so that seems to be a foregone conclusion if they take it back. What else could they do legislatively with 50 votes . Well, legislatively they could put through most of the blue agenda especially since theyre not going to really have any pushback from the house, i think. A. Paul wait a minute. Hold it, bill. Wouldnt they have to break the the filibuster to do that . Right now they need 60 votes, so theyd first have to break the legislative filibuster. Right. Right. Right. I think theyd be in very good shape for it. I agree with dan. To me, the overlooked part is whos going to run these committees, and i think the platform that they have with the green spending and the raising of taxes which will be necessary to pay for this, thats, thats going to mean a lot more stuff coming out of these committees in ways that i think will simply overwhelm the republicans. And the tax issue, they like raising taxes, theyre going to need to. If they frame it as taxes versus health, look, joe biden ran on that, right . Hes going to repeal all the trump tax cuts. So i think their first effort is going to be to try to undo everything donald trump did. And not just with on taxes, on regulation and so fort and undo that so forth. Be harder to undo the courts, but, of course, hell appoint his own judges. Paul on that deregulation, theres something called the Congressional Review Act which allows congress to repeal regulations that have been put, that have been passed within 90 legislative days. And they can do that on a simple vote of both houses, so thats something that they could do right away with even 50 votes. Oh, and im sure it would be open season on particularly fossil fuels, but a lot of the deeing regulation that donald trump deregulation that donald trump managed to get through in four years. Im also worried about d. C. And puerto rico as a state. I think if the democrats, theyre smart, theyre looking at what happened in this direction, and they know the country is not moving to the left as fast as they are. So here is theyre going to have one opportunity, one bite at the apple to change that overall landscape. And the way to do it would be to make d. C. A state, and then theyre going to have two senators, and theyre not going to have this problem anymore. And if they go as far as also adding puerto ricos, theyre probably even more safe although puerto rico does have a conservative streak to it. So i dont think that is as insured. But i think thats a very dangerous path they might be tempted to take because its their last chance. Paul kim, on this filibuster issue, it would be 5050, so they would have a onevote majority to break the filibuster, so they could do it theoretically. But joe manchin, the democratic senator from weve, said he wont from weve said he wont west virginia. Said he wont vote for that. Would i he be the one man standing to oppose it . Well, it does not fill me with confidence, paul [laughter] because you look at joe manchin, this is a man of the party. He has been there for the party on every vote that has ever mattered. Chuck schumers not going to hold against it, hes got the threat of a primary from aoc hanging over his head, so i wouldnt count on that. Pa. Paul all right. When we come back, president elect joe biden criticizing President Trump for his vaccine rollout, but can he make good on his own promise to vaccinate 100 million americans in his first 100 days . Well ask dr. Marc siegeling next. The Trump Administrations plan is falling behind, far behind. Were grateful to the companies, the doctors, the scientists, the researchers, the Clinical Trial participants and operation warp speed for developing the vaccines quickly. But as i long feared and warned, the effort to distribute and administer the vaccine is not progressing as it should. Paul president elect joe biden this week taking aim at the pace of the Trump Administrations covid19 vaccine distribution. The president elect laying out his plan to invoke the defense production act to ramp up manufacturing of those vaccines. 100 million shots in the first 100 days of his presidency, so is that a realistic goal, and is his criticism of the Trump Administrations efforts fair . Lets ask dr. Marc siegel, hes a clinical professor of m. D. E sin at Nyu Langone Medical Center and a fox news medical contributor. Hes also author of covid the politics of fear and the power of science. So, dr. Siegel, welcome. Good to see you again. Let me ask you point blank, is joe bidens criticism of the vaccine rollout fair . Not really. I mean, its father in a couple of senses fair in a couple of senses that the hope was to vaccinate is lot more people by now. But first of all, over 11 million doses have been distributed. Between 23 million have been administered. That means that the slowdown is occurring at the state level because not all the doses that are out there are even being given yet. Second point is we have to realize and take a deep breath here, paul, that were going from thousands having been vaccinated now to millions. And wanting to overlook that and have scientists look at that, we wait to make sure there havent arent side effects occurring that are being missed, so we have to look very carefully at the 23 Million People who have gotten it. This isnt a race, after all, its about getting people inoculated, immunized in a seine safe and scientific way. I also dont believe that his promise of 100 million vaccinated in the first 100 days of his administration is going to work either unless he rushes things and then, again, we may end up regretting that. Paul yeah, but is this relatively slower rollout and i say slower because the Trump Administration itself had said there were going to be 20 million vaccinations by the end of the year. Looks like well be short of that, but is this a logistical issue at the state level that they havent gotten the processes in place to deliver them to the Nursing Homes and hospitals, or is this, as you suggest, maybe red lighted to the fact related to the pact that they want to look at the potential side effects . Which is it . Well, its actually the first part. Im hoping that they take into account my point about the second part, that weve got to look at the side effects. The reason its slow, paul, is because as general perna said, hes taken responsibility that it wasnt administered, distributed as quickly as he would have liked. And then i think the states have not had in place what they need to have to get all the doses out. You know what . It mostly involved Nursing Homes because a lot of health care workers, over a million, have already received it. The medical centers are set up for this. I can tell you that performly. Paul right. Personally. The problem is going on at the nursing home level. Paul all right. Now what about this point that biden makes about the defense production act . President trump has triggered it, i i think the, maybe a dozen or fourteen times. Biden says im going to trigger it for vaccine production, but arent vaccines being produced as fast as they can be right now . This has been anticipate by pfizer and moderna and, if approved, the astrazeneca vaccine. Yeah, paul, you already answered the point the way you posed the question. I dont see any purpose to it. Were talking about 100 million doses per company with over close to 2 billion per company. Pfizer has a fast experience that goes all the way back to 1884 and the smallpox vaccine. They know how to roll out vaccines. Moderna, brand new, but the nih is deeply involved in overseeing that, and they now how to produce vaccines. The money is there, the manufacturing is there. The rate of speed isnt going to be increased by invoking the defense production act. Paul okay. Now, the Oxford Astrazeneca vaccine has been approved by the united kingdom, and theyre going to roll that out right away. Whats taking the food and Drug Administration here in the u. S. So long the approve it . Paul, theres an excellent article in the journal about that right now, and that points out that john bell over at oxford is saying that the problem is that astrazeneca took the lead on this when its really advantage city novels that the fda wants to work. An astounding company with a lot of major wins to its credit in antibiotics, immune they weres, Cancer Therapies, Cancer Therapies really doesnt have the vaccine history that oxford does. So they really have egg on their face from that where they basically said, whoops, we gave half the dose in the first shot and, by the way, that group did better . Well, regulators here in the United States arent buying that. So thats why were slower here, and we should be slower than the u. K. Which has already rolled out this vaccine. Now were going to have the benefit of looking at how it does in the u. K. And then in january and february were not going to see an emergency use authorization requested on this vaccine probably until early february, and thats right because we can see how it works in the united king. Com in the meantime. And im really glad to see oxford taking the lead now. Paul all right. Briefly, marc, sop people are saying you have to have 80 of the American Public advantage i city nateed to be able to have herd immunity. Can we get to herd immunity in parts of the country fas
