the dow is lower today and the fed minutes, we will talk about what that means next time they beat. time for "varney and company". send it over to you. stuart: when will the terrorists stop be heading christians and killing jews? when we work with government to give them jobs. that is the view of the state department. it was mary half who said that. he has exposed the president's terror policy to ridicule. even her interviewer dennis: use was skeptical. we will show you the table. joe biden open the three day white house summit on countering violent extremism. not islamic terror. the immigration amnesty, the judiciary told the executive branch you have exceeded your authority. boston and d.c. effectively shut down most of the rest of the country under intense cold that a wide blanket of snow. start laughing, florida.
11:01 am
"varney and company" is about to begin. >> nothing we do right now seems to be directed at stopping by this. >> we cannot win this war by killing them. we cannot kill our way out of this war. we need in the medium and longer term to go after the root causes that lead people to join these groups whether it is lack of opportunity for jobs -- >> 50 lifetimes there will always be poor people, there will always be poor muslims. >> we can work with countries around the world to improve their governance helped him build their economies so they can have job opportunities for these people. stuart: that was spokesperson for the state department speaking to chris matthews. she says we can't kill our way and out of our war with isis. we need to give them jobs and better governance. remember who she is talking about, isis, the terrorists who
11:02 am

11:03 am
you can't go in and throw a few booths on the ground or a few bombs at something, there has to be a plan. this is a financial show. i will associate is that. you can't just say i want to invest in stocks and just go buy stocks, you will lose everything you have. you have to have people who know what to buy, how to invest and follow their lead. stuart: this is a financial program and we are in the business of pointing out risk to investors. i think what she said and other things that have come out of administration to some degree encourages the view that we are weak and encourages others to take advantage of our weakness presenting a significant threat to americans here at home. >> you couldn't be more right. when dennis: used to is very liberal is taking a stance against her and a lot of the things she says what you are seeing now and i have been seeing this for quite some time we need to stop looking at liberal and conservative and start looking
11:04 am
at effective and incompetent. that is how we have to pick leaders and figure out who to listen to in order to plan this. stuart: you fired a gun in danger. you are a military guy, former navy seal. would you flat out right now go and attack them with everything you got? >> what i would do first and foremost is get a coalition of westernize countries and say to these islamic countries you need to -- >> doing that, assemble the coalition. >> we don't have a collision. we need a real coalition, we need france, canada australia, all these places that have been attacked need to realize we need to take the fight to them but we can't just say jordan is angry, egypt is angry, we have to tell these islamic countries if you don't fix the problem we are going to give you this amount of time like a contract in business, if you don't fix it by this time we will come in and fix it for you. stuart: thanks for joining us. appreciate it. lou dobbs joins us in the next

11:06 am
allocation plants from the big institutions that have to have money in equities and a lot of high-yielding equities. we will talk about apple a little later and even apple has a 150 yield, $700 billion market gap, treasury at 210 today. stuart: what do you make of this argument? that is the rich who have benefited from this new tripling of the dow in the last six years? and most people barely getting by, 49% say just getting by, barely paying their bills. what do you say to that view? that a stock market rally does not trickle-down to the middle class? >> it would have if you have physical response from the federal government. this is the first time the president put a budget in place and said the gunman -- the congress on time. he had five years operating the federal government on continuing resolution. you only had one leg of most working the federal reserve monetary policy, fiscal and
11:07 am
regulatory reform, you would have unleashed job growth in the private sector. you didn't get that so right now what you had is that reserve monetary policy has created these side effects which freed the social fabric of society and it is lowering wages effectively because real wages have not grown and people had assets benefiting from asset inflation strategy for the federal reserve. stuart: let me get to some individual stocks. and to start with apple another record territory moved again it touched 129 earlier. a self driving pushed the stock up, there was the forecast hitting $150 a share. and another forecasts 19 million i watches. we learned from the wall street journal apple is going to order, 5 to 6 million of these i watches from a station supplies for the first quarter alone.

12:47 pm
of the aesthetics. barack obama can do buzz feed videos all they long. stuart: 45 million viewers. >> when i first saw it i was disgusted by it but i knew political friends and on political friends sharing it and the video did its purpose, advanced an agenda, 45 million views on facebook alone. stuart: what was the response? >> they thought it was comical. they thought was funny. this president is acting like a celebrity than a commander-in-chief. his own personal interests are that of aggrandizement. stuart: we have an age problem. liz: they don't have the wherewithal, the experience to push back. we surprise by david axelrod saying this president told him in 2008 i got a pretty good gig going on being barack obama. >> he enjoys the perks more than he enjoys being president. doesn't want to make decisions
