6:03 am
word, the feeling here is great. and that is because the numbers that matter are low. look at these security numbers, john. ten minutes through tsa pre five minutes. if you're flying first class ten minutes if you're going through economy when you consider that this is the busiest holiday travel on record, that is the holy grail of holiday travel. here at o'hare alone and at midway. those are the two chicago area airports there are going to be at least a million and a half people pouring through these two airports over this holiday weekend. today is going to be busy. sunday is going to be the busiest day. they're thinking 254,000 people coming through o'hare alone. so when you take all of that into context and you consider the weather pattern today is good. the cancellations are pretty minimal. this is an absolutely perfect perfect holiday travel weekend. we talked to a couple of the folks out here john, just to get a sense of how they're thinking, how they're feeling about everything. and their tips for getting through this very busy holiday weekend
6:04 am

6:05 am
the the message that will take you through the holiday weekend this is again very, very smooth. i do want to remind people you got to check the tsa because it's easy to forget what the rules are. it's easy to think, okay, is it four ounces? five ounces. the rule of thumb when you're talking about liquids, gels, aerosols is 3.4oz. it's got to be in a quart size. clear ziploc bag, one bag per person. again, just take a cruise through the tsa rules. you don't want to be that person who's holding up the line because you forgot, or you've got something in your bag that's not supposed to be there. guys i'm smiling because every time you explain that whitney, i can tell you have scars from from from going through the line over the last few years with your family. >> you really do learn over time how to do it correctly as soon as you've done it incorrectly derek, let's talk about 100% of the weather, my friend, because tomorrow it's going to stink yet if you're
6:06 am
traveling today, this is the jackpot. >> whitney was talking about it how perfect the conditions are to travel here's a picture in point. this is this is a perfect example of the skies right now over the busiest airport hub in america atlanta hartsfield jackson airport. this is downtown and midtown atlanta. i snapped this picture actually just about 20 minutes ago, but you can see all the contrails of the various jets flying overhead. it's busy out there. people are traveling very active, and we've got green across the board. that means green means go right west coast to east coast. the only roadblock is a storm system that's developing and deepening across the nation's midsection, particularly into colorado. it's brought some hefty snowfall totals that have brought snow to the foothills and into the mountains, and even denver international airport, reporting some snowfall. but it's quickly winding down there. but where it goes from here is what is so incredibly important. so a snapshot of what's happening now, the eastern seaboard, no problems in terms of the weather, but let's fast forward
6:07 am
another 12 to 24 hours when things change drastically. what a difference a day makes hope you're ready to settle in with a gravy and your relatives, because we've got rain in the forecast for this thanksgiving along the coastal cities. but snowfall for the inland communities of northern new england. so plan accordingly. this will usher in the coldest air of the season and these lakes, they're still warm for this time of year. so cold air over warm water means lake effect. snow machine kicks into high gear later this week. check this out. the tail end of the storm system has the potential for some stronger storms. heads up birmingham today. atlanta tomorrow. as you're settling down for that thanksgiving feast, you could see some stronger thunderstorms roll through and in terms of how much snow we can expect across the hudson valley into the higher elevations of new england anywhere from 4 to 8in of snow in this forecast winter storm watch is already posted for this area. hey john, i hope you're prepared for rain on thursday for your macy's thanksgiving day parade special, but i know you can
6:08 am
handle it. but have they really cut out the umbrellas? the budget for umbrellas this year? is that a thing? >> yeah no. no umbrellas, no tarp it's going to be like hurricane coverage except there will be a parade enjoy. >> celebrating you, my friend. >> yes. all right. derek van dam, thank you. and whitney wild, our thanks to you as well. whitney spoke to a person who said the key to thanksgiving is to pick your outfit out the night before. that's about to take on a whole new meaning with kate. >> thank you for that segway, because there are so many things to be thankful for and grateful for. john berman you are one. i will say that publicly because i'm on a live mic. you're walking away. you're running because another thing to be thankful for is would you like to walk in now? oh sure harry enten love of costumes. it is just something that is you. are you are so cute and that is the scariest looking turkey i have ever seen. >> i think i look delicious, that's what i think. >> is it warm? >> it's very warm. it's toasty in here. be good for tomorrow. >> yeah, exactly
6:09 am
the reason harry is doing this. there is absolutely no reason. but harry is here to run some numbers for us as he is trained to do this time. about the great thanksgiving dinner. what are we going to do with this? >> yeah what are we going to do? you know, in this turkey costume? i can't argue that you should eat me, but turkey is the main course. on thanksgiving, i couldn't believe this. 73% of americans favor it as the main course that is disgusting. i'm with you. there's 25% who say opposed. i'm going to have fried chicken tomorrow at the girlfriend's parents place. that's going to be far better. >> far tastier. chicken all the time. >> that is true. but this is going to be a special supermarket fried chicken. it's not going to be popeyes. i like to switch it up on thanksgiving i just moved from one fried chicken to the next. >> and that's the beginning and end where that conversation should be what? what about why are we talking about how it's cooked? isn't there only one way to cook a turkey? >> no, there's not one way. >> there is only one way to fry it. >> yeah i like that 21%. how do you prefer your your turkey on thanksgiving 21% say fried. i had a fried turkey on air last
6:10 am
year. it was delicious. delicious unfortunately, 63% the clear majority of americans say roasted. i just think it gets dried out. so easily. that's the problem with turkey. it gets dried out so easily. smoked is interesting at 22%. i haven't had a smoked turkey for thanksgiving, but the bottom line is most americans say they prefer their turkey roasted. but i'm with kate bolduan. the 21% who say that your turkey should be fried. if you're going to eat me at least cook me. prepare me the proper way. >> i think this is an entire air violation. if i weigh into that debate i love you, harry. thank you so much you may now go into your next costume for your next act. >> oh, i will, thank you so much. >> thank you okay. uh. thank you so much. coming up for us that is harry enten unplugged. would you like to see what democratic strategist james carville is, like, unplugged here? you go really not interested in your uninformed stupid opinion as to whether you go on joe rogan or not

6:16 am
tbs original wipeout. >> all new sunday at nine on tbs all right. >> new this morning ikea is the latest retailer to express concern over president-elect trump's promise of 25% tariffs on goods from mexico and canada. ikea ceo told cnn quote, tariffs make it more difficult for us to maintain the low prices and be affordable for many people which in the end is our goal. and it's not just furniture. also cars. the auto industry could feel the effects of the tariffs. cnn's vanessa yurkevich here with that. good morning good morning. >> well we know that we have the big three u.s. automakers, but there are no all american cars anymore. these companies ford stellantis, general motors, all import car parts and cars fully assembled from mexico canada and china. and that is why a 25% tariff on imports from canada and mexico and a 10% tax on imports from china would have a significant effect on car prices. so for
6:17 am
viewers at home, if you own a tesla model three, a ford f-150, which is america's most popular car, parts of your car are made in mexico also, fully assembled cars from mexico are coming across the chevy blazer. chevy silverado. so all of these cars are really, really reliant on trade from canada and mexico. and why is that? is because it's simply cheaper to make these cars and parts in those countries. wages are much lower and currently there are no tariffs in place. we have free trade with with canada and mexico. that's something that president trump actually negotiated under usmca. so folks at home might be saying, well why don't we just move production to the u.s. if it's ultimately going to be more expensive to make these cars in canada and mexico? well, we simply don't have the capacity for that. also remember, labor here in the u.s. is much more expensive right now. the u.s. is trying to stand up 16 semiconductor facilities the only problem with that is it
6:18 am
takes 3 to 5 years to get those going. and ultimately the u.s., the big three automakers have not commented on these tariffs. i imagine they're watching them very closely. but john, the markets have responded to these tariffs. all of the auto stocks were down yesterday, including general motors down about 9% because investors are nervous. what is this going to mean for these companies. ultimately this could push more pressure onto the used car market if new cars end up costing more. we saw used cars very, very expensive over the pandemic. these tariffs take effect. obviously that's inflation something that americans don't want to deal markets there, they don't want to see that at all john. >> no, they don't like uncertainty. and this very much is about uncertainty vanessa yurkovich thank you very much. >> kate, thanks so with a grand postmortem, if you will, and soul searching also if you will session among democrats after their election loss underway
6:19 am
and far from over. a popular progressive social media influencer is weighing in on just that. what went wrong and what he thinks the party needs to do now to win again especially when it comes to young men. hasan piker is a social media superstar, really, with almost 3 million followers on the video streaming platform twitch. he's a progressive fan of bernie sanders so popular democratic party invited him to the dnc in august, and he sat down with cnn's donie o'sullivan. here's a little bit 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. >> 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.
6:20 am
>> yes, it's 100% a policy thing because i'll say, which is the boring answer. although it would be very self-serving for me to say i'm the left's joe rogan, the democratic party should give me millions of dollars. that's not going to solve this problem. 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 joining us right now, cnn senior political commentator bakari sellers and lance trover, the former spokesperson for doug burgum when he was running in the republican presidential primary. >> it's good to see you guys. thank you. bakari, what do you think of all that? what hasan piker was telling donny i wish he was paying attention.
6:21 am
>> i mean, it's patently absurd to say that he wishes that kamala harris would would adopt some populist economic policies. >> was he talking about the fact that she wanted to build 3 million new homes with housing tax credits, or what's he talking about, the child tax credit or the earned income tax credit? i mean, the economic policies that she laid out were were numerous, and she was the one who actually put forth policy plans. she put forth policy plans for african american males she put forth policy plans for hispanic voters. so, i mean i find it really troubling when people want to have a policy discussion. the fact is, more people know what was in drake's lawsuit against umg, and they've actually studied that more than they studied kamala harris's policy proposals on social media. so i don't really want to hear a conversation about she should have put forth more economic policy proposals when that was not the issue in this race at all. >> bakari, don't start tipping your hand on what you know you were reading up on just before we started this segment do not
6:22 am
start tipping your hand on that lance, from your perspective, what what do you think? do you think the gains the the support that donald trump saw among young men just kind of to this conversation? do you think it was democrats lost them, lost young men, didn't speak to something or donald trump and republicans did speak to something. >> i think it's pretty simple. >> i think that, let's be honest, i don't think kamala harris was that great of a candidate. i think i don't think she had an ability to connect with people the way donald trump has an ability, love him or hate him, he speaks normally. he's not a robotic politician. whether you like or dislike what he says, he speaks normally. and yeah, but it wasn't just men who went to his side. it was african americans. it was latinos. he spoke to a broad swath of this country because he speaks normally, and he articulated a vision for this country and moving forward. and i just don't think we saw that out of kamala harris. >> you know, bakari kamala harris did lay out a vision.
6:23 am
she laid out policy proposals. you and i spoke about them a lot, given the outcome of the election, you now have this soul searching that is happening. and james carville is weighing in. and is berman told me off camera, it was like this was james carville unplugged on the soul searching that democrats are doing what seemed to tee him off in what i'm about to play you. is this campaign conversation around whether or not kamala harris should have done an interview, gone on joe rogan's podcast, and what impact that would have had. let me play what carville's take on all this is the vice president was thinking about going on. >> joe rogan's show, and 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
6:24 am
don't do this, not only would i fired it 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 bakari i mean, look the democratic party is far beyond james carville. >> i mean, i'm not sure that he's in the mainstream. i'm not sure the last time that he actually talked to voters who were in a barbershop or in a in a college dorm room or the last time that he had a town hall meeting or visited a town hall meeting, or pressed the flesh or kissed the baby. i love the fact that that people go to james carville so that they can have outbursts like that. he's the dan hurley of of democratic politics where you just have these kind of manic outbursts day in and day out. the joe rogan debate is old. um if she
6:25 am
would have gone on joe rogan, she still would have lost this race. trump didn't win this race because he went on joe rogan it's hard to win a race when 75% of voters say they were better off four years ago than they are today and, you know, we had this, uh, podcast yesterday on pod save america, where uh, you know, all of the campaign staffers decided to call up and go to pod save america. it was disappointing at best, hearing their lack of self-awareness, their lack of self-reflection. um the inability to to figure out a way in which you could win this race simple. simply, uh providing messaging and saying that we're up where? by. you don't believe that in your heart of hearts to be true. i just think was disappointing in pod save america themselves have been relatively disappointing because they were supposed to be our ecosystem to compete with the right wing. ben shapiro's we were supposed to have this information chamber that was pod safe, but instead they've kind of become this cocoon themselves, where
6:26 am
challenging them becomes a hissy fit back and forth and their messaging has not been one that's been able to prove successful with those same voters that we're talking about. donald trump did well with. and so i think everybody needs to take a moment of self-reflection, including myself, to figure out how we can get better for 2025. people are talking about 2028. if we get smacked in 2025, in new jersey and virginia, then you blow it up. but until then, um, people just need to stop wanting to hear themselves talk what what are we going to do on cable tv then? >> if bakari come on, my friend, help me out. >> no, i said that. >> doesn't that doesn't that doesn't. that's not me that's other people. like this. this is what we do, okay this is important for the ecosystem other people. >> i'm messing with you. i'm. we're going to end on a high note because, gosh darn it, we're just going to do it i would like i'm going to ask both of you. lance, you get to go first politically, what are you thankful for? i'm going to be totally cliche. >> i live in the greatest country in the world. i'm thankful to be here. i can spar
6:27 am
with someone like bakari, and we can go out and have a beer afterwards as long as our country. >> bakari likes something a little stronger than beer. um, bakari, what are you politically thankful for politically thankful for uh, that's a tough question to ask a democrat right now, but i am thankful that we live in the greatest democracy in the world whereby people's voices are heard, votes are counted, um, and that in january we will have a smooth transition of power and, you know i'm thankful for the hope that donald trump can be successful. >> i mean, i think every american needs to hope for that whether or not he can, i don't know. but that's the hope. and that's the thankful prayer that we make. >> i'm thankful for both of you and i actually mean it this time. thanks guys. happy thanksgiving. that means a lot when it comes to bakari. so lance, thanks for really overindexing that on that for us. thank you guys so much. i really appreciate it all right. so coming up for us a wealthy new york couple vanished in 1980 never to be seen again

6:34 am
pond to a diner that had been there for years. and we got a hit on sonar, uh, of a vehicle right in front of the diner parking lot. and then we continued to search the pond and found the other vehicle that the other sonar team had had discovered as well. so there were two vehicles in that pond and one of them was this lincoln continental. >> so. so what happens next after you find it uh, after we find it, we suit up. >> we dive the vehicle. there was zero visibility in the lake, so everything was by feel. um we started pulling parts from the vehicle to try to identify what kind of vehicle it was. my brother was my brother mike was able to pull the grill off of the vehicle. we brought it to the surface, brought it onshore, ran the part number on on the grill and sure enough, it came back to a lincoln continental and and after after doing that, um i went back down and drove the vehicle and we found an open window. i reached inside

the window and just started feeling around. i felt something, you know, hard and long. so i grabbed what i, you know, whatever it was, brought it to the surface of the water. and sure enough, it happened to be a fema bone so we knew right then and there, we had remains in the vehicle, a human bone. >> has anyone told you whether or not the dna results have come back on that i know that usually takes time just from experience. >> on other cases. we've solved, that takes time to get dna back. >> um, how long had you been working on this um, actually, we were not working on this case. >> the other sonar team, which is run by a man named jason. he's the one that alerted us to it, because when we had found out the location of this body of water which was directly in front of the hotel, it concerned us. so we made the trip down there to, you know, verify the vehicle that he had found and to sonar the rest of that body of water to see if we
6:36 am
could find anything and we just happened to find that the lincoln. >> so the lincoln, presumably, if it is the lincoln had been underwater for 44 years. you know, what condition was it in and how does that complicate what you're doing um, the condition of the vehicle was, i mean it wasn't too bad for being down there 44 years, but it was, uh it was pretty much deteriorated you know, the parts came off pretty easy as we, you know, as we were trying to pull parts off the vehicle. >> they were coming off pretty easy. um, but you know, the the law enforcement tried to retrieve the vehicle, and they ended up pulling the rear axle off which, uh, part of the trunk came off with the rear axle. and they were a lot. they were able to grab a lot of evidence, a lot of personal items off of that little piece that they pulled out. and then they stopped um, trying to retrieve the vehicle and decided to drain the pond so that, you know they could get
6:37 am
all the evidence without losing it, trying to pull the vehicle out. >> well, john martin, you and your team just amazing work. and you and the rest of us waiting for those dna results for a conclusive proof here thank you so much for being with us this morning. have a happy thanksgiving you too. all right. battling the spread of misinformation, new data revealing that most social media influencers do not verify information before they share it watch cnn's coverage of thanksgiving parades around the country with special appearances by chef bobby flay, t.i. >> andy grammer, and more john berman and erica hill host cnn: thanksgiving in america live coverage starts at 8:00 on cnn. >> hank used to suffer from what felt like a cold and flu medicine hangover in the morning. >> then he switched to mucinex nightshift. mucinex is uniquely formulated to leave your system faster, so you wake up ready to go. dry mucinex nightshift and

6:42 am
>> i'm hanako montgomery in tokyo. >> and this is cnn a majority of social media influencers are not checking the accuracy of the content that they are putting out that's the big take. >> and one one of the big takes and a really big warning coming from a new report from unesco, a division of the united nations with nearly 40% of young people saying they rely on influencers to get their news, well, that's a problem. cnn's clare duffy is looking into this. she's here with us now. what more are you learning about this, clare? >> yeah. kate we hate to see this after we know we talked so much about how influencers played such a huge role ahead of the election. we know that more than half of americans are regularly getting news from social media, and it's a good reminder that although influencers often build these personal feeling relationships, they build brands around their trustworthiness. you really can't trust everything you see on social media. according to this report, 62% of influencers do not check the credibility of the information they're sharing before they share it to their followers and here's how
6:43 am
the report found that influencers are trying to gauge credibility 40% of the respondents said they looked at measures of popularity, like the number of likes on a post, to decide if it was credible before sharing it, which we know is not a great measure because a lot of times it's the inflammatory content that is what goes viral. 20% said they look to trusted friends and experts, so maybe a bit better, but just 17% said they actually looked at documentation and evidence to decide if something was trustworthy. we also know that influencers are often paid to promote content. 53% of the respondents said that they had created sponsored content, but 7% of them said they presented that content as if it were unsponsored. so while people may think they're getting this trustworthy information from people they rely on, actually they could be getting something that is biased or just plainly untrue. and of course, we've seen this happen. we know one of the big prominent examples recently where these viral false claims that immigrants in ohio were stealing and eating people's pets, amplified of course, by president donald trump. and that ended up being
6:44 am
really harmful. so a good reminder to people to think critically about what they're seeing on social media. >> news literacy is something that needs to be taught. um, in a very in a much bigger way. um, these influencers are on platforms these platforms are, you know, they know that they are being watched. they've been under scrutiny for forever for what the content that they've allowed on their platforms are the platforms doing anything in this regard? yeah. >> i mean, of course the platforms say that they try to address misinformation but we've actually seen a lot of these platforms pull back on their trust and safety and content moderation efforts on x, the platform says that it has these community notes that users can add to add context to claims. the other platforms will work with professional fact checkers. youtube says that it doesn't allow videos with false claims about elections for example, to be monetized, but they don't remove them. meta also says that it doesn't promote content that's been labeled by fact checkers as false. but again that's still up there. and many of these platforms say that they promote good information,
6:45 am
but that doesn't always outweigh the false information that's out there just presenting. >> there's a big problem ahead currently and ahead. and this is a great highlight to say that much more needs to be done. thanks, claire. i really appreciate it so how do astronauts in zero gravity celebrate thanksgiving? i know this is something you woke up thinking today we're going to show you the holiday menu on the at the international space station and the new additions to tomorrow's big thanksgiving day parade will be joining us live alternate captain ken john berman and erica hill handle the thanksgiving trivia i just cooked up. stick around. you'll find out who should be the cnn hero of the year? >> visit cnn heroes.com to vote. if i had to start college again from scratch, i probably wouldn't have made it. >> university of phoenix made the process of transferring my credits seamless and simple life's too short to repeat the work you've already done
