9:00 am
bernardino and his stand on security hurt him. >> he did bring up great points especially about criminal justice reform. maria: and that was one of his main issues that he focused on. lets he a bring on stuart varney who takes over in a couple of seconds. stuart, rand paul out, obviously, the field is getting smaller here, he couldn't break out. stuart: no, he couldn't. i think his message at first was well received by young people, but in the last couple of weeks i think we've seen young people drift to the socialist, bernie sanders, certainly that was the case in iowa, but that's the news of the day, maria. thank you very much indeed. i'm going to-- for those just joining us, i'm going to repeat this, a big news item indeed. senator rand paul, he has just suspended his campaign. i'll repeat that, rand paul basically out of this presidential election run. that just happened literally, talking a couple of minutes ago, just a couple of minutes ago. actually first off.
9:01 am
ashley: i'm reading a statement he just put out, stu. he says to run a principled campaign for the white house, but today i will end where i began, ready and willing to fight for the cause of liberty across the country. thousands of young people, to your point, flocked to our message of liberty government, privacy, criminal justice reform and reasonable foreign policy. as we were saying, he was very much an isolationist, let the world get on with itself and at that time the message was coming out, we had the paris attacks and the battle with isis is raging on and it really, i think, hurt him as a serious credible candidate. stuart: i think it did. liz, i remember when the paris attack occurred, rand paul seemed not out of touch, i wouldn't say, out of step, i would say liz: exactly. stuart: he was big on no prying into e-mails and communication liz: he had a libertarian view on surveillance and that seemed like a great idea in the aftermath of the nation
9:02 am
discovering there was all of this warrantless wire tapping and eavesdropping going on and rand paul had a surge in popularity, his whole concept of keeping the government out of your face was popular, but then we had the rise of isis, so he just was, you know, politics was all about timing and the timing was wrong. he appealed to that group. and bernie sanders swept them up. stuart: amongst democrats. young democrats are going for bernie not hillary. i don't know about young republicans, and if bernie-- if rand paul got what, 5%, 4% of the republican vote, who do those voters now go to? who is the most libertarian of the the other republican candidates? i would have to say ted cruz. off of top of my head. >> ted cruz also has a restrained foreign policy kind of in sync with what rand paul has been advocating and
9:03 am
certainly not a hawk like marco rubio, i don't think that would be a good fit. stuart: all the republican candidates want economic growth. all of them, i think, want extensive tax cuts to get that growth. rand paul was part of that group. he wanted radical tax cuts. now he's out. his support will not go to bernie sanders. just because you're young doesn't say-- i think his support goes to ted cruz, but i think there will be more analysis. are we done with rand paul for the moment? >> apparently the campaign is done with rand paul. stuart:'s he done with it. it's over for him. i want to talk about rubio. marco rubio, now, he had a very strong showing in the iowa caucuses. now it's on to new hampshire. but look what's happened, in light of his success in iowa he's become, i'm going to use this expression, rubio the hunted because the rest of the
9:04 am
candidates, not rand paul now, but the rest of the candidates they're going right after him. . ashley: yeah, they are. the other established candidates, like chris christie, jeb bush, mr. kasich all going after marco rubio looking at new hampshire as their last stand. chris christie saying yesterday, this isn't a student council election. let's get the boy in the bubble out of the bubble, attacking his toughness, intelligence and even his manhood. jeb bush says rubio at 44 years old doesn't have the life experience needed to be president. so, it's the same theme, attacking his youngness, the fact that he's not seasoned and he can't do the job in the white house. they know that he's getting that establishment vote. stuart: and then of course, there is trump. donald trump appeared, shall we say, a little humbled right after his second place showing in hi iowa as we said earlier.
9:05 am
that didn't last. he went on hannity and a more combative perspective on iowa. >> okay, i was 2000 votes, and everybody said it was his evening and called him the winner. he came in third. i came in second and you know the other thing, he's a professional politician, i never did this before so i come in second, spend the least money, and i had a, you know, i didn't do as well. he comes in third, not that close, by the way, you know, they said came right behind trump, not that close, and came in third and talking he's the winner of the evening. stuart: he was going after the media right there. the media who was playing up his second place as opposed to first place. was donald trump right there, was he referring to what i said yesterday? roll that tape. >> trump lost, hillary lucky in a virtual tie, rubio has the momentum of a winner. the pollsters got it wrong
9:06 am
again, how about all of that. [laughter] i'm flattered if donald trump is picking on me. i'm flattered. liz, it occurs to me investors want a candidate who grows the economy. that's what republicans want. they want a winner and growth in the economy. where am i wrong? >> it would be nice to hear more about that instead of talking about issues that are divisive. everybody wants to grow the economy and the republicans have the best tools for doing so, but i have to say jeb bush is one of the few who has been able to articulate that. he started out in this campaign really pushing that message. so what are we talking about? we're talking less regulation, everybody is on that, by the way, rand paul was a great spokesman for that approach, cutting taxes, everybody wants to cut taxes, it's a question of how much and by which method they do it, but, you know, americans need to be convinced that electing a republican is going to be good for their pocket book. at the end of the day, that's what it's about.
9:07 am
we need someone-- we need larry kudlow to run for president and articulate why smaller government and less regulation is actually good for the question. stuart: ronald reagan's question are you better off now than four years ago. whatever the fame time frame is. to sum up the election, rand paul is out. that broke seven or eight minutes ago as we were going on the air and we have rubio the hunted and we've got a newly emboldened donald trump going off the media. they're all in new hampshire. on this front, chipotle, opening at 450. is that a far cry from the $758 that it hit just last august? chipotle is currently having its worst quarter as a publicly traded company. it's that e. coli outbreak. now, there is a new criminal subpoena.
9:08 am
ashley: basically the federal investigators requiring the company to produce documents not just from those restaurants suspected of passing on this e. coli or norovirus or salmonella. they want company-wide documents from chipotle regarding their safety procedures and records of training of employees. so, this is a company-wide investigation now to look at practices, obviously, that's hurting the stock. the stock is down 24% in the last three months, has really struggled. the c.d.c. just announced monday that the investigation is over. we don't know that. stuart: fair point, ashley. we're going to bring in now the director of the c.d.c., that's dr. thomas frieda. thank you for joining us on this particular occasion, sir. am i right in saying that the original source of the e. coli contamination has not been identified? >> that's correct.
9:09 am
that's not unusual, particularly if there are a large number of items in a single meal. it's hard to track that back weeks or months later. stuart: would i be right in saying that you can get rid of e. coli by using irradiation, but that's not currently in use widely in america? >> there are lots of different ways to get our food supply safer. it's already quite safe, but we have to look at every aspect from the farm to the table to make sure that we're looking at t the-- reducing contamination in each step. stuart: am i right in saying that irradiation gets rid of it and environmentalists in particular. >> there are some roles for irradiation in some food instances not for everything. there is no quick fix. we have to fix the system every step of the way and one of the things that we're seeing more in recent years is more of these multi-state outbreaks as the quick service establishments spread and as people get more of their food
9:10 am
from them. we consolidate our food supply. we consolidate basically the possibility of a single point of failure resulting in outbreak. stuart: doctor, there's another scary want to ask you about, the zika virus. again, i'm asking for information here. is it correct to say that we now have a case where zika was transmitted sexually within america? is that accurate? >> we've seen actually previously one case of apparent sexual transmission of zika years back so we know it's possible. and we had reports yesterday from dallas, with a test confirmed in our laboratory at c.d.c., of someone who is not a traveler developing zika presumably, apparently, from sexual transmission. the bottom line still with zika is that it's overwhelmingly spread by mosquitos and the key lesson, the key message is that if you're pregnant and you're thinking of travelling to a place that has zika spreading, don't go. if you're pregnant and you live in a place where zika is
9:11 am
spreading, use mosquito repellent and stay indoors and reduce the risk you'll get bitten by a mosquito. stuart: thank you for appearing this morning, very important material. >> thank you. stuart: he'll -- i'm going to repeat the breaking news, rand paul suspended his presidential campaign. he called it an honor to fight for the course of liberty. rand powell out. 4.5% of the vote. rand paul out. we have in coming up. evangelist franklin graham, he says this year's election will be the biggest in history. i'm going to ask him to back up that statement in just a moment.
9:12 am
9:13 am
9:14 am
>> once again, the news we brought you 20 minutes ago, rand paul dropping out of the presidential race six days before the new hampshire primary.
9:15 am
judge napolitano joins us on that. the judge is a libertarian and ra . normal oakland raid eers quarterback, he had the brain damage cte. a current nfl star ben watson of the new orleans saints joins us in the next hour talking about ken stabler. franklin graham, the son of billy graham, he's encouraging people to vote, calling this the biggest election in our history and he joins us now. welcome to the program, good to see you, sir. >> thank you, good to be with you, sir. >> may i start by asking about your father. how is he doing these days? >> well, thank you, he's 97 years old. he's home. he's pretty good shape. his mind is clear, it's just he's 97. he's weak, but again, his mind
9:16 am
is clear. stuart: that's a blessing, is it not. to reach a great age and your mind is clear, nothing beats that. >> no question and he's surrounded with family and has people around him every day, he's able to stay in his own home and he's doing well, thank you. stuart: we should all be so blessed. thank you. now, why is this, as you call it the biggest election in our history? >> i think it's the most important maybe election in my lifetime. we're really at a fork in the road. our nation has become secular and secularism and communism really isn't any different. they're both godless, we've chosen for ourselves a godless form of government we've never had before. we're now in a fork in the road if we continue where the democratic party wants to take us, that is to socialism, socialism is godless and we're going to take that direction if we're not careful and i believe who we elect for the next president of this country, i believe this to be the most
9:17 am
important election of my lifetime. and it's -- when i say big, the ramifications of this is going to be huge. if we continue down the socialistic track that president obama, the democratic party has takesen us on the last few years. how do you want to reunite church and state in america? >> what i want this to do as a nation, i want us as a nation to focus on almighty god. i want the evangelical christians, to stand up and vote. last time 20 to 30 million stayed home last election. they did not vote, stuart. i want them to get out and vote, their voices need to be heard. their votes count and the media and others want to try to tell christians well your vote really doesn't matter. it does matter. some of these elections are not won by millions of votes, they're won by a handful of votes. if the bible believing
9:18 am
christians get out and vote, it can make a difference. of course this country is made up of people of many different favorites. the predominant religion of this nation has been the christian faith. god has blessed a great nation and given freedoms to our people and to others, more than any other nation in history, but we're losing it and i believe we need to go to the polls and vote. stuart: reverend graham, before we close, can i ask your opinion on president obama's visit to a mosque today, first time he's done that during his presidency. your opinion? >> well, it doesn't price me. he's very sympathetic to islam. his father was a muslim. his stepfather was a muslim. he was raised in muslim schools and ever since he's come to be president he has been trying to give islam a pass. so it doesn't surprise me one bit. reverend franklin graham. we're very happy to hear the good news about your father. thank you, franklin, thank you, sir.
9:19 am
>> thank you, stuart. stuart: we're calling it groundhog day all over again. where oil goes, stocks go. it's repeated every day. it's groundhog day. now, by the way, more ceo's are saying america is headed for recession. plus-- we've got that news for you. plus, marissa mayer, head of yahoo! she's been buying up companies and now firing 1700 people. this is a company that's geriatric after 20 years? .

9:25 am
huge write-down. >> look, she inherited a mess, but the problem is she has nothing to point to that is success under her tenure there, so-- >> the stock only performed because of its ownership of a part of alibaba. >> exactly. stuart: now, am i a sexist that recently marissa mayer delivered twins. am i a sexist if i say she was distracted. >> people will say you are. the truth is that's somewhat distracting element in her life. women and work, the notion that women are paid less, there is time that women take time off, including twins. . ashley: don't forget the lavish christmas party. i think every step she takes.

9:55 am
win or he could win in november against hillary clinton. but let me come back with this. he often appears preachy. he wears his christian hard very much on his sleeve. i wonder if that is attractive to viewers across the country. what you say? >> the thing about it if america wants to hear this answer some in. we are judeo christian company that stands on those principles. from that standpoint when you see him in iowa but they pointed stand against a popular governor about ethanol, look at how he turned the tide. he stood up against his leadership in the senate. the only one to really do so. people say ted cruz is hated because of that. the senate as part of the problem. when you are not addressing these issues, not having a conversation on what issues are important to america, he gets it. but the conversation he had with americans, he's told you what is
9:56 am
going to do, stood by it and people appreciate somebody that follows through. stuart: why doesn't he support rubio? >> i don't see the same kind of attention to the detail that i saw with ted cruz. you know, i've been pointing with my leadership in regards to what they are not following through and they are doing something i don't feel it's right for my constituency and for this country. i don't see in him putting his voice on those. but i do see that with ted cruz. he made promises to the american people in his follow-through. stuart: you are convinced that a man who calls himself a christian god fearing conservative can beat a hillary clinton on the left? are convinced of this? >> absolutely. we said the same thing of ronald reagan. i watched it happen and 76. my mom was a national delegate to the national convention and
9:57 am
76. we said the same things about ronald reagan when a challenge to gerald ford. the problem this year the problem this year is we don't have for years away. this is the right guy to up hold the rule of law. we get this country back on track when we get back to the rule of law. stuart: paul gosar from arizona. i remember 1976 very well indeed. much obliged to you. here is that the virus are clearly growing. a global emergency has been declared. the case has been transmitted by sex in america. manny alvarez on the risk. listen to this. there are now $5.5 trillion worth of government bonds worldwide. $5.5 trillion worth with a negative yield. that means you give them money come you don't get it all back. you don't get back in the interest. steve forbes on that one. next hour of "varney & company" is two minutes away.

... >> 10:00 on the east coast,
10:00 am
it's 7:00 in california. breaking story last hour, rand paul is out of the race for the white house. the g.o.p. field narrows six days about of the new hampshire primary. martin shkreli, the pharmaceutical guy, jacked up the price for the drug, not a popular guy, arriving in federal court a half hour ago, accused of fraud, actually looting his hedge fund. the nfl star ken stabler died in july from cancer and doctors say he also suffered from traumatic brain injuries. and joining us on that story, hour two starts right now. ♪ well, check that big board. very little change for the dow jones industrials.
10:01 am
oil is up a little bit so i guess you could say they're working in lockstep. just seconds ago we had breaking numbers on the services sector of our economy. what's the news? >> it's a miss. came in at 53.5. it's slowly trending down. this is another indication that the fear that we could be in recession. if the services industries are in recession, that's bad. stuart: so we're pointing to recession generally. this service sector indicator points in the same direction. >> yes, and it was a big miss. it's been trending down. that means the fed may not raise rates four times this year. stuart: that looks like it's had some impact on the stock market. we were up a little and now we're heading lower. remember, that news broke what, a minute and 24 seconds ago. that's it. got to move on to chipotle. first sales decline ever in a quarter for that company and man, is it taking it on the chin. $27 lower right now. that means it's $300 below where it was in august of last year. the latest, please, ashley?
10:02 am
>> same-store sales down 14% in the last quarter, since this e. coli outbreak now we get word that there's a federal subpoena issued for a company-wide investigation into their safety procedures to see whether there's anything there that could lead to charges. now, earlier, this morning, stu, we spoke to the c.d.c., dr. friedman, they tried to find the source of the e. coli and they couldn't. here is what he had to say. >> there's no quick fix here. we have to fix the system in every step of the way and one of the things that we're seeing more in recent years is more of the multi-state outbreaks as the quick service establishments spread. as more people get their food from them. we consolidate our food supply and consolidate the possibility of a single point of failure. stuart: it's not reassuring. ashley: it's not, because the doctor said in the chipotle case, there were too many ingredients to track down. they couldn't see with the contamination originated.
10:03 am
stuart: big political news broke this morning, rand paul dropping out of the presidential race. again, ashley, details, please. ashley: rand paul saying before 9:00 this morning, not going to continue. had lost a lot of momentum. certainly when his isolationist views were coming out at the same time as the paris attacks and fight with isis. all of that took the oomph away. he got a lot of early momentum and he's very popular, basically rand paul supporters from the 17 to 29 year olds, very popular and started to lose that as well. when he was not on the main stage for a couple of debates, he frankly became inconsequential. stuart: that hurt. meghan mccain is first. when i first saw that rand paul is dropping out. he's got 4 or 5% support within the republican party. who gets those votes? who gets rand paul's votes now? >> that's tricky because he's
10:04 am
the only isolationist libertarian on the stage. independent younger leaning people. that's a crap shoot. possibly marco rubio, i guess, but his supporters in general are kind of hard to poll and i think for rand, like you were just saying, i think this was not the era for the isolationist libertarian with the rise of isis and after the san bernardino attack and he has a race right now in kentucky and had he stayed in the race much longer it possibly could have hurt his role in the senate. stuart: steve forbes is here and i want his thoughts on rand paul. he must have been disappointed at the iowa caucuses. youngsters by overwhelming margins they went to bernie sanders, the collectivist. what is going on? >> he was not able to generate the enthusiasm that his father did in 2012. having america withdraw from
10:05 am
the world, father, ron paul was unapologetic about it. what rand paul tried to do to keep that base and expand it to mainstream voters. he ended up losing both. he didn't get the mainstream voters and part of his libertarian base. he had 4,000 college students in iowa to help him out. they had a good ground game going, but didn't get that momentum. they didn't get the outstanding issue. he had a flat tax, he didn't put it out there, tear down the irs. stuart: and flat tax, all steve forbes. how about marco rubio, he's the establishment frontrunner after a strong showing in iowa now he's become rubio the hunted. listen to what chris christie said about rubio. >> you know the boy in the bubble is up here. never answers your questions. can't -- so instead rubio, with
10:06 am
the bubble. i hope you guys answer the questions. stuart: that's a-- >> salty, christie. >> they're going after rubio because he polls against hillary clinton. if he comes in second in new hampshire, a possibility he's first in south carolina, and he's got an arrow, a target on his back and they're going to say marco rubio is not the one you want, he doesn't love you like we do, he's an establishment politician e. ashley: it's going to get ugly. stuart: and the process which we select candidates if you've got momentum through the caucuses and primaries and rubio's got to momentum, that's a huge plus, i think. >> it's an amazing narrative, he's a minority, a beautiful family and conservative, not
10:07 am
going to isolate the moderates and independents you need and i believe he's the best person to reach out to millennials. stuart: so is meghan mccain, stress that, going for marco rubio. >> yeah, he's my favorite. and since my boy graham dropped out. i think he's a good person for the future, but he has 0 work on his messaging getting out. stuart: news of the day, rand paul out. everybody gangs up on rubio, go after him. got it. i want to turn to what i think is an extremely important financial story. it's very wonky, as you might say. i'm kind of preemptively telling you to avoid the buzzer [buzzer] >> listen to this, a record $5.5 trillion worth of government bonds worldwide now have a negative yield. please, please don't buzz me on this, it's very important.
10:08 am
that means that 5 1/2 trillion dollars worth of money in bonds, which pay you no interest whatsoever, and in which you actually give money to the bond issuer, the governments issuely. what's with that? steve forbes is here. [laughter] i mean, you know, there's a great reluctance on our part to cover this story because it's very, very wonky. negative interest rates? there's a turnoff. but it's vitally important to what's going on in the world, isn't it? >> what's having is equivalent to rent control. borrowing money when you do that you deform the credit market which hurts small businesses, you'll see it in this country, in europe, in japan. and negative is worse on financial services. stuart: why is this happening? but why is it happenings? >> the central bankers now have the definition of insanity. they've been trying this for year after year after year,
10:09 am
suppressing interest rates, gobbling up bonds, allocating credit to the government, thinking it will stimulate the economy. what does it do? they doubledown and do it more. what is the ma--h these people, didn't they learn? they don't call them to account liz: other news, too. the central bank is saying to u.s. banks, net ready. negative three month yields. they'll test the banks to get ready for u.s. savers, pay to save. you'll have to pay the u.s. government on negative yields. >> we'll have failure in japan, so we'll have failure here. bright stuff. stuart: if i lend money to the government for three months and don't get any interest and they keep a little of my money, that's a disaster? >> of course it's a disaster,
10:10 am
if you don't know the price of lending, short-term lending, guess what, loans stay flat or go down. that's what's happening. it's disastrous. >> thank you very much for approaching at that very difficult story, but a very important story. >> it's absolutely important, because it's difficult is why people get away with their failures. >> thank you very much indeed, steve. check out big boards because now we're down 68 points, okay? and look at this. this is marissa mayer at yahoo! under an intense fire for her handling of the company. how bad is it liz: it's very bad. this is a company that lost 40% of market value. the word is it should have sold itself sooner. and now to private equity shops. she would have walked out with $158 million from that company, but she's the 7th ceo in nine years, yes, she inherited a bad mess, but she's made more acquisitions in the history of the company and wrote down two-thirds of it.
10:11 am
the company had to write down two-thirds of her acquisitions. stuart: steve forbes, i didn't mean to go over your input there. but an expensive failure? >> it's like sports. these baseball teams and signed multi-million dollar contracts and the player can't play. it doesn't work out. stuart: yahoo! shareholders a are-- >> she had bad press, a great gatsby theme party. and had her babies, and she wanted them in the office. and considers herself a feminist. i don't know anything about the economy like you guys do. from a pr standpoint, she isn't the type of woman i look for as a ceo in corporate america. check out the great gatsby party, ridiculous. stuart: marissa mayer,
10:12 am
everybody attacks rubio and rand paul out of the race. we're heading down, it turned negative. 12 minutes ago after a negative report on the services sector. next, ted cruz getting a lot of report from evangelicals. tony perkins, why religion plays a big part in the vote. he's next.
10:13 am
10:14 am
10:15 am
>> all right. now we're down 100 points from the dow industrial as the term game 15 minutes ago when we received negative reading on the services sector of the economy. now we're down 105. look at toyota. is transitioning its skien mark back to toyota, the stock is down not necessarily on that news. a dch adt, the home security company.
10:16 am
and looking at the s&p 500. back to senator rand paul, yes, he's suspended his campaign. what you're looking at is the good senator arriving on capitol hill last hour minutes after he announced he's out of the race. blake burman in new hampshire. is anybody up there talking about who will get rand paul's votes? >> well, that's certainly one of the questions here, stuart. rand paul had been pulling in 3% or so here in new hampshire. you'll remember in the last debate, rand paul had actually accused senator ted cruz of trying to bend to or play to the libertarian votes. we'll see if ted cruz is one of those who benefit by this. we're in the country store in new hampshire and as it relates to paul. a couple of things at play here, why he dropped off, first off he didn't catch fire. he only got 4 1/2% of the vote. here, he got 3% of the vote according to the polls he would.
10:17 am
but he's running a senate campaign as well. he's on the battle in kentucky for yet another senate term. here is part of the statement that rand paul set out a moment ago, an hour or so. i'm quoting here. although today i will suspend my campaign for president, the fight is far from over, i'll continue to carry the torch for liberty and look forward to earning the privilege for people in kentucky for another term. stuart:'s got to get back to kentucky to run for the senate again. thanks, indeed, blake. still on politics with ted cruz. here is tony perkins president of the family research council, who has endorsed tony perkins? >> i have, i endorsed his message. stuart: before we go any further. i want to ask you about your endorsement. would you define evangelical. because i'm a christian, i'm a believer, i'm an episcopalian, but i don't think i qualify as
10:18 am
evangelical. >> you don't sound like a southern baptist from mississippi. that's a technical term, evangelical. there is established criteria, but in a nutshell, it's one who believes the word of god, the bible is infallible and errant word of god and salvation is through faith and jesus christ alone. one must confess their sins. stuart: that's why evangelicals take their christian values to the ballot box. >> there are 90 million evangelicals in the country. 50% of primary voters and about a third of general election voters. you can't ignore them and expect to win an election. stuart: ted cruz you endorse him? >> as an individual not any organization that i lead. stuart: tony perkins you endorsed ted cruz. he wears his christian heart very much on his sleeve and i suspect that's not always popular in all sectors, within
10:19 am
the republican party, that's not necessarily popular. >> that's interesting, just today pew, this week pew released a poll says that a percentage feel their politicians should talk more about god and religion, that's up from 2012. i'm surprised i thought america was turning for secular in our public life. >> i think it's because president obama, his policies that have really been hostile toward religious freedom and expression of faith in the public square, that there's now a pushback. and people are pushing back, wanting to express their religion not having to keep it within the four walls of their church or thoughts between their two ears, they want to live their faith and that's the mark of an evangelical. stuart: would you comment on president obama, who today visits a mosque for the first time in his presidency? >> this is a part of the narrative from that administration, hostility towards christians and then
10:20 am
towards islam. a president who is not ashamed to be a christian, ted cruz, what we saw in iowa, ted effect, where we saw the dormant evangelicals that did not vote in 2012 who turned out. we saw a huge rush of new voters, new caucus-goers, vast majority being evangelicals, they didn't break for donald trump as predicted, they broke for ted cruz. stuart: they're not going to have that level of support in new hampshire and certainly not south carolina, probably. do you think he's going to win. >> i think he's going to do well in new hampshire. it's a different state, different makeup, but i think he'll do well in south carolina. stuart: tony perkins, anytime you're in new york, please come sit next to me on the set because we like it. >> i'll be happy to. stuart: a palestinian poet sentenced to eight years in prison and lashes in saudi

10:25 am
and more problems for pro football, another nfl star confirmed to have traumatic brain injury. we're talking to ben watson and his wife about the dangers of the game. today president obama visits a mosque, first time in his presidency. yesterday a court in saudi arabia sentenced a poet to flogging, 800 lashes. these two news items are not connected. maybe they should be. first, the poet, ash rah fayed, a palestinian by birth lives in saudi arabia, charged with blasphemy and illicit relationships with women. first sentenced to death by beheading on appeal is given eight years in prison, plus, 800 blows with a cane, to be administered 50 at a time for 16 weeks. barbaric in the extreme, torture by any other name, sharia law. now to president obama's mosque
10:26 am
visit, it is his first as president. the white house says he's going to reinforce the idea of religious tolerance to counter anti-muslim anti-sentiment. i think that the president should connect the saudi flogging with outreach to muslim. why not plead for a reprieve to the poet, the mosque he's visiting is sharia law and it's an opportunity for the president to push quietly for reform. there is some precedent for this. last year's britain's prime minister cameron made the case for a britt. if he would do the same for the poet, president obama would push for the reform of barbarity.

10:31 am
we got 5.9 million. 2995 right now. stuart: excellent. right on it did thank you very much, indeed. bringing in andy lithgow. and oil analyst. this is huge. we will not run that down very quickly. >> no, we are not. it is going to be with us for quite some time. it really has not moved that much. in spite of the declining count. >> oil back to $29 a barrel. where is the bottom for this? >> i will tell you at this rate, we will go down to $25 a barrel given the inventories here in
10:32 am
the u.s. and iranian oil is coming back on the market. >> attackers loaded with crude oil just floating outside shipping terminals waiting to come in and put that oil on the market. millions and millions of barrels just sitting there. >> it is true. twenty-five-30 million barrels. really, more depressing for the refining industry. there are millions of barrels of diesel and jet fuel looking for a customer. >> how about the length of time? the rest of this year into next year? what do you say? >> i think that it will be most of this year. i do not think that that will be the case given that opec is not really doing much to cut
10:33 am
production. stuart: thank you. thank you so much for joining us. a lot more oil in storage. the price of oil has fallen to almost exactly $30 a barrel. by the way, the dow industrial average is down 146 points. dropping the price of oil. the market is now down 151 points. barely holding 60,000 as we speak. 15999. then we asked donald trump. ted cruz and the iowa caucus. donald trump tweeted donald trump did not when i was. he stole it. that is why all of the polls were so wrong. why you got far more votes than

sexual transmission. we had reports yesterday from dallas. someone who is not a traveler developing. stuart: this is quite a development. it can be transmitted by mosquitoes. sexual act vividly. it expands the nature of the challenge and anxiety level. the problem is, we still do not know technically what the prod spread of this disease is. you look at some of the statistics. it is still all over the place. this virus is expanding. we're seeing more cases in the u.s.
10:36 am
it is transmitted by a mosquito. it does affect pregnant women. a very devastating congenital male conformation of the brain. we do not have a queue or, nor a vaccine. it is justified. we are used to these medical scares. >> every time we forget about these types of viral diseases, spread by, let say mosquitoes. there has been no mosquito control for the last 50 years. you are paying the price. you go back to the days of big yellow fever. this is something that is not in their radar. the health departments do not talk to each other. >> as a matter of fact, i think
10:37 am
that we should go back. it is a very good way of controlling mosquitoes. they are experimenting with genetically modified mosquitoes. we have a mess on our hands. you will see a lot more cases of this. >> it is justified. it is time for the sector report. now down 160 odd points. i will look at the big-name technology stocks. what is happening to them? facebook is down $4. thank you very much. look at that. amazon is down. it is friday. you saw him briefly. i am interested in which named

11:32 am
lady, senator, secretary of state. has president obama so changed america that a candidate way out on the left could win over half iowa's democrats? the answer is yes. america has been changed. it has been changed by president obama's program. that is buying those with free stuff. we got the capitalists, tax the rich. the people who feel left out, that's popular. president obama went to presidential elections with that message. it doesn't take politicians want to figure out how to win elections. that is their job. bernie sanders jumped right in. he saw the opportunity, be that the billionaires, by those with free health care and college and paid for by by taxing the rich. the president laid down the template. bernie picked it up and ran with it. seven years of all government all the time really has changed america. there is no ifas constituency that says any government health.
