and so it does seem that she's just you know, doing it by herself. >> yeah. i mean, it's really i will say the thing that sort of blew my mind. many things blew my mind at this at this concert. i mean, she's just an unbelievably phenomenal powerhouse of a performer. i mean, it was astonishing to see. but the merch lines, my goodness like, good luck getting a sweatshirt that's not like a, you know, an extra large because people are so devoted to all of this. brian west, i'm very grateful to have you on this, on this thanksgiving eve, and i hope you'll come back. i hope there's reasons for you to come back, because i'm excited to see you after this next concert i know for sure. yes let's do it. it's a date. thank you again. all right. thanks. we're going to say thanks to our panel. obviously, it's already gone off to enjoy their holiday. thanks to you as well for watching. i hope you have a very happy thanksgiving with your loved ones. i am kasie hunt. don't go anywhere. cnn news central starts right now

all right, find the kids. start your engines. >> gird your loins thanksgiving. travel it is on. today is set to be one of the busiest days at airports ever. we have everything you need to know to numb the pain. >> consider them girded, sprinting through his transition. the new reporting on president-elect donald trump and how he's preparing for his second term. another flurry of job announcements and his moves to make this transition very different from his first and are you familiar with the manosphere? cnn looking at one influencer as millions of followers online and what it means for the future of politics? i'm kate baldwin with john berman. sara sidner is out today. this is cnn news central

so get ready for the busiest thanksgiving for travel ever. >> 18 million people expected to fly for the holiday this year. most flying today, sunday and monday. travelers could catch a break with the weather today ahead of what could be a cold, damp even snowy thanksgiving tomorrow. cnn's whitney wild is at o'hare airport in chicago. derek van damme tracking the weather. whitney, let's start with you. what do you see well, john, it is already very busy. >> it's just 6 a.m. here in chicago already busy crowds this year, like you said, is going to be record numbers of travelers. a 6% increase this year over last year at o'hare and midway that's an even bigger jump. they're expecting an 11% increase compared with last year john. that means, numbers wise, they're looking at about a million and a half people coming through o'hare and midway. the two chicago area airports. it is going to be busy, but the good news is, john, it is smooth. let me just

walk you through here. this is what we want to see john. this is what we want to be thankful for. ten minutes tsa pre 15 minutes, regular security five minutes. premier access. can't get any better than that john. but the rules remain. try to get here like two hours early. if you can be prepared. make sure that you've checked through the tsa rules to smooth out your security process because you don't want to be the guy who's like, going through your bag, throwing out your huge water bottle because you didn't check the tsa rules ahead of time john, you don't want to be that guy. >> not when you have all sorts of other issues like me. in fact, this is a true story one time for thanksgiving, i tried to get through security with a brussels sprouts stock. whitney. and i don't know if you know this, but that looks like some kind of savage weapon. a brussels sprout stock did. and i said, no, no, we're cooking this for thanksgiving. and whitney, i do. i understand you've got some advice for people traveling with some of their thanksgiving food yes, exactly. >> so just take a step back. i know everybody's really focused

on the ingredients, but you also have to make sure that you're prepared per the tsa rules. so the general rule of thumb is 3.4oz per like liquid gel aerosol. it's got to be in a one quart clear plastic bag and that's only one bag per person. make sure it's on the top of your bag so you can whip it out pretty quickly. get through security quickly. and then the other thing is, if you're bringing items like you know, a blender, i don't know who's bringing a blender, but you might bring a blender. the tsa has specific rules about how to carry through some of these extra items. so generally, if it's a weapon or can be used as a weapon in any capacity, it has to be disassembled and in your checked bag. so just make sure you check that. think through the security process. because even the best of us, we forget things. john, i went through security a couple months ago with my kids. i've got four kids. i've been through security dozens of times with strollers. i forgot the stroller has to go through the screening process, which meant that i was holding one baby and

trying to disassemble a stroller. just be prepared that these things happen and you need to move through slowly, patiently and be a little prepared to think ahead. i did not do that. you are forgiven by the stroller situation, but we made it. >> you had a lot going on, no doubt for that. and i want to fly next to the person who puts the casserole underneath the seat in front of them. but that's a whole other thing. all right derek, let's talk about the weather today and tomorrow. what are you seeing? >> well. note to self you have to check in your gravy and maple sirup. you learn something new every morning. this is the jackpot. if you are leaving today at the airports, we don't see or foresee any major weather delays. that's why we have green means go from coast to coast. that's about as good as it can get. but things are going to change very quickly. so settle in to grandma and grandpa's house because watch how this storm evolves. there it is across colorado, very active radar across that particular location, the plains. yes,

there is some wintry precip mixing in at times, but this is going to change as we head a little bit further to the east for the day tomorrow. it is creating though a winter wonderland, a real life snow globe here in steamboat springs, colorado looking fantastic. but watch how the energy from this very storm system you saw across colorado move to the eastern seaboard and notice the time frame on the top portion of the screen there. that's thursday midday, just as you're about sitting down for that thanksgiving feast. we do expect this to be a rain system for the major east coast cities boston, new york, philadelphia to washington and atlanta. but there will be snowfall just north of there across the hudson valley, northern new england, and then the lake effect snow machine kicks in in earnest behind it. now, this trailing cold front all associated with the same storm in the southern flank of the storm, could bring some severe weather chances. so today we've got a marginal risk. it's not a great risk, but it is something to be aware of from jackson to birmingham and then tomorrow in atlanta all the way to charlotte could see some of those stronger thunderstorms

form that could lead to some localized damaging winds as well. winter storm watches have been posted across northern new england. this is all in advance of the system and then check this out frigid continental air mass this is what we refer to it as, will slide in from canada all the way to the midwest and the east coast, bringing the coldest air of the season d.c. to new york. yeah, i'm looking at you, john. you're going to be shivering on thursday morning tomorrow for the macy's day parade. sorry about that. >> the good thing is it won't just be cold. it will also be very, very wet as well. all right. derek van dam thank you. whitney. while our thanks to you, kate bolduan green means go green is also the color of a brussel sprout stalk. >> i mean, that is. you are such a smart man that is so ill advised. what are you talking i got pulled aside by tsa as you should have been and have ever had, as you should have been. it's offensive coming up for us new reporting from inside the trump transition how and why donald trump is operating so differently this time versus

on tbs things are looking different for donald trump's second go round as the president elect at this point in 2016, donald trump had announced just four cabinet picks and now he's basically named basically named his entire cabinet at this point. >> and more. overnight, the president elect put out another flurry of names, filling out more public health roles and adding to his list of economic and domestic advisers and allies. say this time that donald trump is more aware of the limited amount of time that he may have to act. said another way he's very aware of the political calendar, which is he has only two years of republicans in charge of all of congress before they hit a midterm election. cnn's steve contorno has new reporting from the trump transition team. for us this morning. what are you learning, steve okay, here we are. >> the day before thanksgiving, just three weeks after donald trump woke up as president elect and his entire cabinet is nearly full. and he keeps adding new

positions underneath those top jobs such a different approach to eight years ago. and when we talked to allies and advisers close to the president elect, they said that trump is more emboldened this time by the size of his electoral college victory. he's more confident in how washington works, and that is partly why he is acting rapidly. but he is also acutely aware that his time in office is immediately on the clock. as soon as he is sworn in on january 20th. and that is not only because he is a lame duck, essentially, from that very first day, but because there is this two year window to act while they have control of the house and senate. i talked to one longtime adviser to donald trump, a lobbyist who is close to him and many of his cabinet picks named brian ballard. and he said, quote everyone understands we have a two year window with a majority in the house and senate who knows what happens after that. and if you are not running at breakneck speed you

shouldn't be part of this. this administration and trump, as you said in the last 24 hours, continuing to put people in place, naming jamieson greer his u.s. trade rep kevin hassett, as his economic council director vince haley his domestic policy council director. haley was an individual involved with the fake elector strategy to overturn the 2020 election. doctor jay bhattacharya, as his nih director, a stanford professor who was opposed to covid lockdowns and then john fallon is secretary of the navy. interesting background for him. he doesn't have a military background instead, he founded a private investment firm, kate steve contorno. >> thank you so much. so coming up for us donie o'sullivan takes a trip into what's now called the manosphere one thing we've been hearing for weeks now is that the left needs a joe rogan. >> yeah i don't think that the democratic party can podcast

itself out of this issue joe rogan endorsed bernie sanders in 2020. >> maybe they should do an autopsy on why he left the party what the mostly young, mostly male group of influencers say democrats need to learn from the 24 election and customs and border patrol agents, border protection agents make a record bust worth more than $18 million. >> and it's likely not what you're thinking. they picked up who should be the 2024 cnn hero of the year? >> it's your chance to weigh in. discover the life changing work this year's honorees are doing. then cast up to ten votes a day, every day. visit cnn heroes. >> hey, so i want a new credit card to grow my credit. now, experian can help me find credit cards with no decline. now, these cards won't ding my credit if i'm not approved. >> no ding. no ding no ding. >> get the free experian app. >> today i'll give you my bike

heading back to their homes, even though the idf evacuation orders are still in effect. the situation is still tense. just hours ago, the israeli military reportedly fired towards several vehicles approaching a restricted area. no casualties reported there. with us now from the white house, national security adviser jake sullivan. jake, very nice to see you. see you just a few hours into this ceasefire. what's your assessment of the situation? so far? >> well, first, today is a good day. >> as you noted, the cease fire has gone into effect. it's designed to be a permanent cease fire, a permanent end to the war across that border between israel and lebanon. but of course, implementation is going to be key. and that means ensuring that hezbollah, the terrorist group, cannot rebuild its terror infrastructure in southern lebanon and that the lebanese armed forces do their job in filling in the security vacuum in southern lebanon rather than hezbollah. the united states, along with france and other countries, are committed to ensuring this deal is implemented effectively. and we're going to take steps

until the time comes when we can all breathe easy and say yes this is actually in effect, it is going to stick. it is going to work but day in and day out, we are going to make sure that we're doing everything to see to it that the terms of this agreement are enforced. >> what did israel achieve in the last few months of this conflict with hezbollah, and would they have achieved as much had they agreed to a cease fire back when the white house was pushing so hard back? and what was it september well first, what israel has achieved is they've been able to very badly degrade hezbollah. >> they have taken out all of that terrorist infrastructure in southern lebanon. they have taken out the leader of hezbollah nasrallah, many other top deputies. they have taken out rocket and missile emplacements and therefore hezbollah is badly weakened. it's a shadow of its former self. and by the way, they were able to do all of that because of the skill and effectiveness of their soldiers. but also

because of the backing of the united states at critical moments in this conflict, president biden dispatched military assets and capabilities to the region. an aircraft carrier, another aircraft carrier fighter squadrons, and even an advanced sophisticated air defense battery to ensure that israel had what it needed to be able to carry out effectively. this campaign against the terrorist group hezbollah and the september cease fire call that you're referring to was actually something coordinated between the u.s. and israel israel decided ultimately it didn't want to do that, that it wanted to go forward with a ground campaign to take out emplacements on the other side of the border. the u.s. backed that, and we've arrived today where we are because of the steps israel has taken but critically, because of the steps the united states has taken. and we've also achieved all of this without the united states being dragged into a war in the middle east on joe biden's watch. >> so the incoming national security advisor for the incoming trump administration

congressman mike waltz, who i know you met with in the last few days, he put out a tweet that said, quote, everyone is coming to the table because of president trump. his resounding victory sent a clear message to the rest of the world that chaos won't be tolerated. how responsible do you think the election is for the fact that this peace deal, a cease fire was reached? >> this peace deal was reached because israel achieved its military objectives, because the stakeholders in lebanon decided they didn't want war anymore, and because of relentless american diplomacy led by president biden, driven by our envoy amos hochstein coordinated in this building behind me by the national security council. that's how this came to pass. i have been grateful i've been grateful to work with with congressman waltz in the last few days to keep him apprized of what we've been doing, to let him know as we've taken these diplomatic steps. i would just point out that, you know, you've done a really good thing when other people take credit for it. we are very proud of what we have

done, and we look forward to passing off a better situation to the incoming team. um president biden said he is hopeful that the cease fire with hezbollah will lead to perhaps a way to find peace between israel and hamas in gaza. >> besides hope, what is your reasonable expectation that that could happen in the next 50 days? >> it's a very good question. look since the beginning of this conflict, hezbollah linked its fight against israel to the fight that hamas was having with israel from gaza and it said, we won't stop until the the war in gaza ends. that link has now been broken, which means hamas is isolated. hamas is now under pressure and all eyes, not just from the u.s. and israel, but the rest of the world are going to turn to hamas. and so there is now newfound opportunity and possibility to drive forward a ceasefire and hostage deal in gaza. but i'm not going to stand here and make any predictions about when or how that will come into effect. all i can tell you is, as the

president said yesterday, we are going to begin that work today to try to push for a ceasefire and hostage deal to get those hostages home, to get relief to the to the innocent civilians of gaza and to ensure an end to the war without hamas in power. >> jake sullivan, national security adviser i know you're headed up to new hampshire soon, where your wife was just elected to congress so good luck with all of that. thanks so much for being with us. thank you. all right. this morning vice president harris, for the first time since her election loss, is sharing her thoughts on the future of the democratic party. and democratic strategist james carville tells us what he is not thankful for i'm really not interested in your uninformed stupid opinion as to whether you go on joe rogan or not there are amazing things that are happening all over the world, things that can make our lives better. >> that's the goal of my podcast to try and find the secrets to a longer and happier and healthier life and then we

this is not the outcome that she wanted. she did not wade into any of the blame game. she did not offer any reasons for why she believes that her team lost, but she did notably reference the very short time frame of her campaign only 107 days, saying that she believes what they were able to achieve during that time, she said, was unprecedented, and she had this message for her supporters going forward i know this is an uncertain time i'm clear eyed about that. >> i know you're clear eyed about it and it feels heavy and i just have to remind you, don't you ever let anybody take your power from you you have the same power that you did before november 5th. >> and as harris is speaking out for the first time, so too are some of her senior advisers who went on the podcast pod

save america. and they were to put it lightly, much more blunt about what they thought went wrong in the campaign, namely blaming the very short duration that they had, saying that it did not give harris enough time to distinguish herself in this election that she couldn't. she didn't wasn't able to craft her message to appeal to more democrats. put bluntly, david plouffe, who was, of course, a senior adviser to her, said there was a price to be paid for the sht mpaign. kate certainly much more to learn from the harris campaign's team postmortem of what went wrong but certainly at first blush at how at least they are defining it for the first go around. kate. >> sunlen good to see you. thank you so much, john. >> all right. this morning, president-elect trump's promise to impose 25% tariffs on goods from mexico and canada is sparking concern across many u.s. industries. one of them, maybe chief among them, is the auto industry. cnn business and

politics correspondent vanessa yurkovich is here. and look this has an impact on the auto industry. like every which way. yeah. >> and us as consumers of buyers of vehicles, the u.s. imports the majority of car parts and cars from mexico. and we do have the big three u.s. automakers. but so much of the cars that are made are made with foreign parts, including from china as well. and canada and mexico. and we import cars from mexico directly just to give people a sense, there are the cars that we import that have parts from mexico. tesla actually model three, honda ridgeline, the ford f-150, the most popular vehicle in america right now. the reason we do this is to keep prices low for consumers because it's much more affordable to import parts and make cars in mexico, and that is so that we can pay $47,000 on average, which is still a lot for a vehicle and not upwards of $100,000. we also make a lot of cars in mexico and import them directly

chevy blazer, honda hr-v the ram shelby silverado. those are cars that don't even get made here in america. the question then is why don't we just make everything here? well, it's more expensive we don't have the capacity and we are working on building facilities here in the u.s. however, it takes 3 to 5 years to even get those up and running. the chips act and chips act in 2022 allotted $30 billion for semiconductors for vehicles that are mostly made in china, but that's a long way off. now, the big three u.s. automakers didn't , t the markets certainly did. all of the auto stocks were down yesterday gm down about 9%. so people clearly a little bit nervous about these tariffs 25% on canada and mexico 10% coming out of china nervous about what it means for the auto industry and for the average consumer. does that mean that people are not going to be as interested

in buying these certain vehicles because now they're simply more expensive, and that could shift demand all the way down to used cars and we saw that over the pandemic. if you remember, used cars were out of control expensive. there could just be a huge huge ripple effect in the auto industry if these tariffs take effect. >> yeah, i was reading there are some cars during the manufacturing process that actually crossed the border several times, and they would be slapped with a tariff every time they cross. so you can see how that would run up the prices. vanessa markovich thank you very much. >> kate, joining us right now is former republican congressman charlie dent and christie setzer, democratic strategist and former spokesperson for al gore's presidential campaign. guys thanks for being here. charlie, let's talk about these tariffs. just as john and vanessa were talking about chuck grassley a top republican senator. he told politico this. he was telling reporters this politico reporting, i'm concerned about the potential of it. when asked if he was worried about another trade war on the horizon but he says right now i see everything that trump is doing on tariffs as a negotiating tool and we'll have

to wait and see how successful he is. he is about that as a negotiating tool. it gets back to the question, do you take him seriously? but should republicans do you think be worried about trump. and this negotiating tool and or trump implementing this well, i think senator grassley is right to be concerned because no state would probably have more to lose in a trade war than iowa. >> much of the corn of iowa goes, i'm sure, to mexico mexico retaliate against tariffs but as a negotiating tool, yes trump wants to use these tariffs as bargaining chips. but he also wants to use these tariffs as a revenue source to help pay for at least partially offset um, the reauthorization of the 2017 tax cuts and so he wants to use this as a revenue source. so i think he's wanting to use this more than as a simple bargaining chip or a negotiating tool. i'm not sure what part of the smoot-hawley tariff of 1930 we didn't learn

about. when you think about it in 1930, we imposed 20% tariffs across the board, which exacerbated the great depression. global trade after that dropped from $3 trillion to $1 trillion. so these these tariffs, if implemented as proposed, would have devastating effects on american manufacturing and agriculture for all the reasons you just pointed out in the lead up to this segment, with all of the various inputs coming in from other countries to make things here in the united states. yeah. >> i mean kristi, i haven't found in my brief searching and listening and absorbing. i really haven't found a company head that's saying that tariffs would be great for their business. walmart from ikea now just now this morning saying that if these go into effect they could they could force them to increase prices politically then what is this. because it's not like trump can't hear this. and it's not like those around him haven't

warned of this. and it's not like even those he's appointed to to key cabinet positions have kind of had been careful and treading lightly before they got their nominations to say how they felt about this. it's it is kind of plain to see what the math is. what's the what's the politics here that you see it's terrible politics. >> it's sort of baffling to understand why trump has been embracing this. and i think that it might just be that he doesn't understand how tariffs work. >> it is obviously bad political strategy because so many people that just voted for donald trump in, you know, just a couple of weeks ago, um, did so because they were frustrated by the fact that inflation was still happening, that prices were still slightly higher than what we were seeing pre-pandemic. >> this is going to take a sledgehammer to that in terms of it will jack prices up. so if you are someone who doesn't want to pay more at the grocery store for basic fruits and

vegetables, up to things like buying a new car. unfortunately trump's policy is going to make you do exactly that. so it's not just bad political strategy. it's also bad economic strategy. as we just alluded to. it's going to almost immediately bring back inflation to you know, a degree that had had gotten under control under president biden so it's it's very confusing as to what he's doing here obviously, even other countries claudia sheinbaum and mexico today was saying that, look, we have a shared interest, obviously, in trade this might hurt us, but it's obviously going to hurt american consumers just as much and so what is he doing really? it's hard to know and charlie, you know tariffs and implementing them. >> it was one of the more consistent campaign promises that you did hear though from donald trump on the on the trail. i mean voters were aware and voters voted for him. that's my segue to the search for what then happened that

that democrats are doing right now, because the harris campaign heads, they are out speaking for the first time with pod save america. sunlen serfaty was playing just a little bit of it. let me play what david plouffe said about what went wrong so this is where there was a price to be paid for the short campaign. >> and you can't even say 107 days, because to quentin's point, some of that was spent shoring up the democratic nomination. then you really have to have said everything you want to say. by the time people start voting early. so we had a little more than two months to do bio contrast on the economy, on health care, raising the stakes of trump's and i want you both to weigh in on this. >> but, charlie, first you you hear that and you think what well, i think the fact that kamala harris lost was largely because of the unpopularity of joe biden and most americans thought the country was on the wrong track. >> that was their biggest problem and she was unable to separate herself from joe biden as her vice president. that was

a major problem for her. and so and, of course they failed to respond on that transgendered ad. i mean, where was the response that seemed to me to be campaign malpractice, but the fact that that biden was so unpopular most of the country saw was on the wrong track. she was actually she was running into the wind much of this campaign. so this this vote was perhaps you know, a bit of a referendum on joe biden and inflation or their response to inflation. more than, than anything else. and they could just never get out of their own way on that that issue. but, you know, we're going to spend a lot of time trying to analyze and diagnose what went wrong. but i'd have to say those are the major fault lines for the harris campaign. >> well, and then let's start it now. christie, what charlie is talking about there is, during this initial kind of interview, none of the campaign leaders that were on there called out biden by name, but they did repeatedly refer to. i think it was headwinds. i don't think it was. i think it was headwinds that they kept repeating, repeating to repeating over and over again. what say you i would say that

kamala harris did a remarkable job in the short amount of time that she did have for her campaign. >> and to be perfectly honest, i'm not positive that her having had a longer amount of time, would have ultimately been decisive but it could have helped. look what she did in that short period of time was when she became the nominee. her own favorables were incredibly underwater by about 15 points. she was able to bring that up to, if not positive. then at least even. also, perceptions of the economy. she was able to turn those around as well. again, democrats were way underwater. president biden was way underwater in terms of how people viewed democrats and the economy and their perception of how we would do better on it but she was able to get that back up also to about even if not slightly positive. that's incredibly difficult to do, especially in a short period of time. obviously, they raised bananas amounts of money, so i'm really not here to say

that she could have done more. but what we saw and you see this primarily when you're looking at non battleground states versus battleground states, is that those headwinds were incredibly high. you know 678 points in non battleground states the areas where we focused the campaign was able to turn that around get it incredibly close. obviously states like wisconsin were decided by less than a point right. so that's great work. if ultimately the headwinds were too strong for her, they probably would have been too strong regardless of whether joe biden had gotten out six months before that. as well. >> yeah, bananas amounts of money raised and bananas amounts of money spent. it's good to see you both. thank you very much. happy thanksgiving guys. john. >> all right so what is the manosphere exactly. and do democrats need to play a bigger role there? and iowa just pardoned its own two turkeys. you will never guess what they are named

economy. >> perhaps they need to call it something else hey how goes it? >> well, i'm getting a new car. >> yeah, i've been contemplating the same carvanas convenient appreciate the tip. >> anytime how's it going over there? >> hey, buy that car yet? be here thursday. >> you. it's a question for a more decisive me. maybe i need to think about it more. i believe in you. you can do this. come on. definitely a no

a lot of the younger progressive staffers pitched a hissy fit. if i were running a 2028 campaign and i had some little snot nosed 23 year old saying, i'm going to resign if you don't do this, not only would i fire that on the spot, i would find out who hired them and fire that person on the spot. i'm really not interested in your uninformed, stupid opinion as to whether you go on joe rogan or not that was james carville being tactful as the debate over whether to rogan or not to rogan rages on. >> cnn's senior correspondent donie o'sullivan has a look at what the progressive answer to that podcast might be donie o'sullivan. >> this is hasan piker. >> this is my dog, kaya. i thought you legitimately were going to work out. i could do some weights. >> he's a social media superstar with almost 3 million

followers on the video streaming platform twitch. they're eating. >> they're eating the pets. >> so this is that whole masculinity thing people are talking about huh? >> and he's part of a growing group of streamers and podcasters reaching young men online, a space trump tapped into to reach young male voters punch in. >> then you won't be able to see that he's not doing any weights. >> but hasan is not a trump supporter. he's a progressive, a fan of bernie and aoc. the democratic party even invited him to the dnc in august. one thing we've been hearing for weeks now is that the left needs a joe rogan. >> yeah i don't think that the democratic party can podcast itself out of this issue. joe rogan endorsed bernie sanders in 2020. maybe they should do an autopsy on why he left the party i've heard you say when it comes to stuff that guys like you seek that stuff out online, whether it's watching a

streamer, whether it's watching guys talking about working out and fitness. >> you say that the right wing just dominates that space. yeah. why? >> well, i think that's why i started on twitch right? i know for a fact that the video game space is like people who consume this, this culture, people who are a part of this progressive person. you can be a leftist and like, have fun at the same time. >> how many people are watching your live stream on election night? >> the total unique number was 7.5 million. >> there's a general sense that when it comes to the world of podcasts, alternative media i don't even know what you want to call it. the trump did a much better job with that than democrats, and harris. >> absolutely. i think that's true. when i saw the aidan ross collab, i thought, this is not this doesn't have motion. it was awkward. it was weird. the other for the better for me. but then i saw trump on theo von and he started talking

about cocaine and i was like, uh oh this this humanizes him. cocaine. >> so you're way up with cocaine more than anything else you can think of. >> cocaine will turn you into a owl, homie. you know what i'm saying? >> harris did consider going on joe rogan. yeah, but she didn't. what is it that the democrat party has to do differently? >> well i think that they need to change their policies. >> it's a policy thing. >> yes, it's 100% a policy thing because i'll say boring. which the boring answer, although it would say i'm solv what will solve this problem is if the democratic party actually adopts real left wing economic populist messaging instead of purposefully avoiding that stuff because they're terrified of upsetting their corporate donors. i think trump speaks to male insecurities better, and i think trump speaks to the anger

that people have, whereas the other side of the political spectrum does not speak to that anger at all. >> there's been a lot of controversy around you. >> yes. >> the way you talk about israel is viewed by some as anti-semitic. yeah. are you anti-semitic? >> of course not. the real problem here is that i'm an anti-zionist. the real problem here is that i'm extremely critical of israel and and all of the information that's readily available especially on social media, for so many people that don't necessarily rely on mainstream media any longer to get their information. and that's why you see this generational gap. if you're over the age of 35, you're still operating on the old boundaries. you're like, no, israel is the most moral democracy in the middle east, maybe in the world. right. and i think that the major generational divide that is, i think, in a ve overall that people have with mainstream news in general. uh, is coming from that donie

o'sullivan, cnn, los angeles fascinating. >> tony thank you so much. an arizona man now under arrest, accused of threatening to kill donald trump. manuel tamayo torres is facing a felony charge after a series of facebook videos show him allegedly threatening to kill the president elect, as well as some of his family members. in one of the videos, court documents say he was waving what appeared to be an ar-15 style rifle. he also charged. he's also charged with several counts of making false statements on federal forms while trying to purchase a gun. last year in phoenix. a massive shipment of gibson guitars has been seized because they are all fake. customs and border patrol in california seized more than 3000 of the rip offs, posing as these iconic instruments. the value of the seizure, had they been genuine gibson's more than $18 million. officials intercepted the suspected cargo arriving in ocean containers from asia.

gibson confirmed the guitars intercepted were in fact counterfeit authentic gibson guitars are made only in the united states this now is the largest counterfeit musical instrument seizure on record. so there you have it. careful what you're buying peaches and blossom. those are the two turkeys that received presidential pardons at the white house this week. they are not the only lucky turkeys out there right now, guys. meet caitlin and clark two iowa turkeys named after the basketball superstar, and two iowa turkeys that also received pardons. this week by iowa's governor, kim reynolds. local affiliate kcci reports. the family that raised caitlin and clark have been raising turkeys for 100 years in iowa after being granted their freedom. if you can consider it that the birds will live out the rest of their days at a noncommercial farm, jonathan berman i'm just shocked that turkeys in iowa named caitlin clark needed to be pardoned at all. >> you would think they would already be across the board pardons everyone's naming i

like that very much, but they, um, you know, they're going to live i wonder what they're like. >> vertical is they're going to. >> exactly. and they're going to hit a lot of threes in retirement. okay well, many people are getting ready for a feast tomorrow. others are worried about putting food on the table, not just for thanksgiving but every day. there are more than 47 million americans who are food insecure right now. and the problem of hunger affects every single county in the u.s. with us now is claire babineaux-fontenot. she is the leader of the hunger relief organization feeding america, which is a wonderful organization. 47 million americans are food insecure. that is just such a high number it is. >> and in fact, it's 47,400,000. nearly 14 million of whom are children that's a very high number and i hope for everyone who will hear me, it's it's unconscionable. and

unacceptable. >> and i know this is what you think about every hour of every day, but what can we all do to fight this well, that's actually part of what makes me optimistic about this challenge, is that there are things that we can do to fight this we often tell people to go to feedingamerica.org, or you can learn how to donate how to volunteer and how to advocate. >> when we show people, policymakers leaders that this matters to us, they act on it. um, we know that it should matter. it impacts every county. as you said before, thriving communities do not happen when members don't have enough food. um, so everything that we want is made better for ourselves and for our society. when people have the food that they need, when we talk about the food insecure, when we talk about people who are hungry, um

it's not necessarily who you think it's a much broader spectrum correct that's absolutely right. in fact, the fastest growing segment of people turning to the charitable food system are people who don't qualify for federal nutrition programs working class people. um, and in fact, the people who are on federal nutrition programs, when you take away the elderly people with special needs and children, the vast majority of them have at least one job. so these are cannot make ends meet because of other things that are happening to them. we often characterize food insecurity as a symptom of poverty. >> really, you you just visited recently all of the feeding america food banks, you know, what was your major takeaway from both that, um, the

situation is difficult and it's so inspirational to me. >> i've been to all 50 states, as you said, over 200 food banks that includes alaska and puerto rico and every single place that i went, i saw people even in the middle of a global health pandemic rolling their sleeves up and helping their neighbors um, it gives me hope. it gives me optimism. and i'm also cautious in that optimism because i know that there are some big challenges that we're going to need to confront as a society. >> claire babineaux-fontenot from feeding america i really do mean it. you have a wonderful organization, and it's a type of group that we should all be looking to help however we can. so thank you for the work that you do. a new hour of cnn news central starts right now a record number of people
