below freezing weather all day long for a chance to get into the auditorium where you mention the president will be here in a couple hours. iowa every four years is exciting because of caucus. they make sure the democrats don't have spotlight all to themselves ahead of the caucus. president won iowa in 2016 by 147,000 votes. this is state we continue to watch closely, after the 2018 midterm elections we saw two republican house seats flip to the democrats. we'll see whether or not continues going into the general election in november. campaign says they will put a lot of resources into iowa ahead of the election. >> iowa is our opportunity to organize and energize to give a strong preview what democrats can expect whoever the nominee ends up being come november 2020. we will be out there as the trump-pence campaign full force

across iowa. reporter: while the president will be in iowa this evening tonight the trump campaign said they will send other cabinet secretaries like betsy devos, ben carson, house minority leader kevin mccarthy, these kind of surrogates will be on the ground ahead of the caucus day. what we've seen, thousands of people out here, excited to hear from the president. they have the teleprompter set up, liz. unclear whether or not he will stick to the script or he will go off script. plenty of topics that could come up. we heard a number of supporters that said they felt they wanted to be here, ewaa takes the political spotlight. liz: marks, thanks so much. we'll monitor, dipping throughout the rally throughout the hour. don't mess fox business special coverage of iowa caucus monday night, 8:00 p.m. eastern time, i will join neil cavuto on a night that might finally show who the democrat front-runner might be. to this, jackie deangelis with more on the stock market action

today. jackie, lots of issues and crosscurrents hitting your money. the update. reporter: that is true, liz. the markets rebounded at the close of the session. fierce of coronavirus started out in the red and dow finished up 124 points. the virus killed 171 people in china. those there are slightly more than 100 cases outside of china there have not been any deaths in other countries. that is a good sign. the market worries this could pose a threat to the global economy. there could be more volatility to come with all the deadlines. worth to mention, fed chair jerome powell mentioned the coronavirus outbreak and overall uncertainty about the outlook, that word, that uncertainty always keeps the market on edge. earlier stocks sold off. we saw gold higher. investors bought into treasurys, both a safe haven play. yield on 10-year falling when notes are bought. so those yields are falling towards record lows. oil sold off along stocks. it did not rebound.

investors worried about overall demand. earnings season also in full swing with beg tech names reporting all week after the bell. it was amazon reporting a monster quarter. earnings of $6.47 a share. web services revenues beat the estimates. that is amazon's future, that number very, very important. number of items delivered to us, to u.s. customers with prime one-day quadrupled quarter on quarter. that is huge. more people joined prime than ever before. over 150 million global memberships. those of course are paid. amazon is restricting employee travel to china until further notice as the coronavirus is spreading there. finally the eu gave its official approval of brexit. that is the last step in its internal procedures before britain leaves the bloc. liz? liz: any other news? jackie a lot going on. jackie deangelis thanks for the

run-down. let's get back to the president's rally in des moines, iowa, capping what could be a historic week. possible end to impeachment tomorrow or saturday morning. the president is expected to tout tonight his signing into law this week nafta 2.0. key democrats not invited of the no pens or dems there. president announced earlier this week a middle east peace deal. let's bring in treasury department for public affairs monica crowley. >> great to see you, liz. liz: potentially a deal for the history books? >> absolutely. the president when he first announced his candidacy talked about a economic freedom agenda. that is what he ran on. that is what he is implementing as president. it is not a coincidence, it is not a surprise, that the united states is experiencing this kind of economic boom that was essentially four pillars and he has been executing on all four. tax cut, regulatory reform, unleashing the american energy sector and delivering, better,

fairer, more reciprocal trade deals. what we saw with the signing of usmca is astonishing. this is a huge, historic win, liz for american workers, farmers, manufacturers and businesses. liz: monica, you know, bernie sanders side of it, he seems to be the front-runner in a number of states. he is bringing out aoc, michael moore. esteemed respected cook political report warning that the democratic race is in chaos. we may not see a front-runner even after iowa caucus on monday. you may not see a frond runner until the super tuesday. u.s. gd, 2.3% growth. the president wants 3% growth. talk about that. >> yes, absolutely. the president predicted 3% growth which we think is absolutely attainable. over the course of the last year or so the democrats in in congress really dragged their

heels on usmca. if we had that in place we may see higher growth. we had the gm strike. we seen number of issues, boeing with ongoing eschews. the administration is confident that those issues will be resolved in relatively short order if they haven't already. so you need a good partner in congress to rein in government spending. this administration is absolutely committed to doing that as we move forward. given the fact we've seen slow downs in europe, particularly led to slowdowns in china. the global economic picture essentially slowed down of the fact the american economy is so strong it is a huge testament to this president's leadership, his economic freedom agenda and the american worker. liz: this is happening too, you know, even "newsweek," op-ed in "newsweek" economy under trump is great. no incumbent president lost a election with growing economy in

peacetime conditions. moody's at lit -- analytics says it is president's election to lose. half a million jobs. listen what president obama had to say on the campaign trail in 2016 about then candidate trump. watch this. >> he is going to bring all these jobs back. well how exactly will you do that? what are you going to do? there is no answer to it. he just says, i'm going to negotiate a better deal. how, how exactly are you going to negotiate that? what magic wand do you have? >> political rhetoric people can get over their heads. your reaction to that. >> he had economic policies, economic freedom agenda, tax cuts, regulatory reform, better trade deals for the american worker, unleashing the u.s.

nothing sector. all of those things came in to play to unleash the traditional engine of economic growth, prosperity, innovation, creativity. we're seeing all of those things come into play now. it is not coincidence. it is a direct result of president trump's economic policies. when you mention usmca it will deliver a huge boon to the u.s. manufacturing sector. you mentioned over half a million manufacturing jobs, already created since the president entered office. liz, i would point to the fact we're experiencing a true blue-collar boom. since the president's election we're seeing working class experience the largest growth. liz: what is interesting? the news broke early in the day. we're running out of time. i want to get your reaction to this. "washington post" got a bernie campaign document that showed bernie sanders is now preparing dozens and dozens of executive

orders to undo, take back the president's, certain of his reversing policies stopping border wall, ban exportation of crude oil and more. democrat think tank, third way, found majority of voters in the blue wall states of michigan, pennsylvania, wisconsin, they don't like bernie's policies. they don't want government-run health care, single-payer. as we point out, monica, the battleground states have higher rates of health coverage than the national average because of labor unions. labor unions fight for good health care. bernie wants to take that away. >> president trump is delivering for all americans, including those that you mentioned. whomever the democrats nominate will be very hard sell. this this president kept his promise to the american resident and american worker. he kept his promise to the economy. liz: monica, thank you very much. democrat senators are reportedly

starting to peel away, the debate, the impeachment game-changer that might have swung it toward the president. did a trial damage joe biden. mistake adam schiff and nancy pelosi made as nancy pelosi joins in to slam and insult the senate. woman: friction points, those obstacles that limit a company's growth. i try to find companies that turn these challenges into opportunities. it's these unique companies with creative business models that will generate value for our investors. that's why i go beyond the numbers. it's timcan it helpltimate sleep nukeep me asleep?he sleep number 360 smart bed. absolutely, it senses your movements and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable. save 50% on the sleep number 360 limited edition smart bed. plus 0% interest for 24 months on all smart beds. only for a limited time i waited to get treated.

i put it out there with a godaddy website. make the world you want. liz: let's get you updated what happened with the action in impeachment today. edward lawrence on capitol hill with more. edward? >> liz, right now, republican an democratic senators asked more than 140 questions of the house managers, getting answers from them. also getting answers from the president's defense team related to this. now it appears the question and answer period could be over at least later on tonight, like 11:00 p.m. eastern time, somewhere around there. then the decisive vote on friday. if senators want witnesses and documents of the right now appears the votes are there to end impeachment trial tomorrow, but a hot -- lot could change in 24 hours. pointed questions how the house pout together its case. the president's attorneys with a direct answer to that.

>> why do you cook up the facts in a basement scif instead of in the light of day? why do you do that? why don't you allow the minority to call witnesses as they have had to, had the right to do in all past impeachments? then they come here and say, by the way, we were fully in charge, so completely in charge, that we locked out the president's counsel, denied all rights, denied the minority any witnesses at all. reporter: other questions what rises to the level of an impeachable offense. also about executive privilege. at one point senator susan collins from maine asking, is it ever appropriate for a president to get another country to investigate an american citizen? representative jerry nadler saying no. here is his answer. >> the president of course is entitled to conduct foreign policy, is entitled to look into corruption in the united states or elsewhere. he is entitled to use the department of state or any other

department for that purpose. he is not entitled to target an american citizen specifically. reporter: tomorrow is a very big day if the senate decides to vote no on having any witnesses or documents in the trial, could end, later on tomorrow night. if it is a yes on those questions, then we're looking at another week, even more. liz? liz: edward lawrence, thank you very much it is always about reasonable doubt. it has been the issue. reporting that. reports pouring in the senate may acquit the president as early as tomorrow or early saturday. ahead of president's state of the union address on tuesday. polls show half the country say no, do not remove the president 10 months before voters kick him aside. this, even senate minority leader chuck schumer is not optimistic at all that the democrats get their wish. remember democrats wanted more witnesses brought before the senate. watch this? >> so i hope we can get witnesses and documents.

it is an uphill fight. is it more like than not? probably no. but is it a decent food chance, yes. liz: talk about it with former federal prosecutor doug burns. what do you think? acquittal tomorrow. >> possibly. it is interesting he is winding down his narrative. we need documents, witnesses. it was cagey narrative for those designed not legal experts not to come across as pompous, whatever, we need witnesses. you're blocking the truth. you're blocking everything, but he realized as narrative my late father said, he have play must have its final curtain. liz: democrat senators manchin, jones, sinema might vote to acquit. watch nancy pelosi insulting. >> you can't be acquitted if you don't have a trial. you don't have a trial if you don't have witnesses and documentation and that. liz: she is doing two things. slamming the senate, saying he remains itch peeved forever.

>> identical narrative. we'll narrate the trial this is not a trial. that is absurd argument f you get indictment in the grand jury, you go to trial, you may introduce new information. this is impeachment. the case was made in the house. liz: wait a minute. she is trying to set up a narrative if there is acquit -- >> only reason he was acquitted there was never a fair trial. liz: get to impeachment game-changer. this could have swayed toward the president. senator lisa murkowski, mitt romney, asked this key question, how should the senate assess abuse of article charge against the president if he had more than one motive in his phone call with ukraine, that yes the bidens alleged corruption is matter of legitimate public interest? you see that, there were layers in the phone call, not just the bidens corruption but others crowdstrike and more. >> every legal dispute surprised i have been 35 years, has two

narratives, two sides. that is adversarial process. one narrative he tried to get dirt on political opponent. you have no problem making that argument. hear my argument. he was legitimately be objective looking at one of more corrupt countries in world there was story involving a -- those are the two -- liz: they're saying get foreign government to do that. that is the issue. >> to do what? liz: to look into the bidens. under panoramic vision, backdrop of corruption in ukraine. >> conduct happens in their country, with burisma. which is a company other there. the point is, you can't hysterically say don't argue corruption. liz: here is new video undercutting revelations about john bolton attacking president about ukraine phone call this is more reasonable doubt. >> watch this. i will be meeting president zelensky. he and president trump have already spoken twice. president called to congratulate president zelensky on his election and success in the

parliamentary selection. they were very warm and cordial calls. liz: here is adam schiff attacking john bolton not credible during the george w. bush administration. watch this. >> mr. bolton is awol. focusing more on the next job than doing well on the last job. given history we had politicization of intelligence over with. md, why we would pick someone, who the very same issue has been raised repeatedly, john bolton's politicization of the intelligence he got on cuba and other issues. why would, we want someone with that lack of credibility i can't understand. liz: that is big reasonable doubt, right? >> what do you think the average citizen says when they watch all these hypocritical changeses from 1999 to now? they're very cynical about it obviously. liz: the other thing too is, here is the other thing that happened, the president, one of his attorneys blasted adam schiff for bringing up unrelated

allegations of extortion and bribery. >> that is huge point. you didn't charge him with bribery or treason or any specific high crime. liz: would have been automatic trial. >> by the way throw he is guilty -- that is crazy. it would be a mistrial. liz: schiff, schumer, thatted letter, pelosi, insulting president, trying to undercut future acquittal, treacherous vote, complicit in a coverup. adam schiff claimed that still again that he did not have contact with the whistleblower. let's watch this sound bite. this could be another error by adam schiff. watch. >> i doesn't know who the whistleblower is. i haven't met them, or communicated with them in any way. committee staff did not write the complaint or coach the whistleblower what to put in the complaint. the conspiracy theory outlined earlier that the whistleblower colluded with intel committee

staff to hatch a impeachment inquiry is a complete and total fiction. liz: it is already reported that the whistleblower contacted his house intelligence committee and adam schiff was told about that conversation. >> harvard law school semantics. assume that the whistleblower spoke to his staff left and right over and over and the staff spoke to him. i did not speak to that person. that is harvard law school semantics. technically true he didn't but his staff did over and over and they told him. people have to see through the semantic games being played all day long. he may not have interacted to say he doesn't know who the person is i don't believe that. liz: you don't believe it? >> no, i don't. liz: do you think the president gets acquitted tomorrow or saturday? >> that is hard prediction. tomorrow or tuesday. somebody told me tuesday. i have don't know why. friend of mine. liz: state of the union, doug burns. great to see you. president on the move. he has a new task force on the

♪. liz: welcome back. we're coming into the bottom of the hour. health officials now warn that the coronavirus is spreading exponentially, faster than sars or mers. it could be a it is now in india and philippines. total of 19 countries. russia moved to shut its 2600-mile border with china. we have former lieutenant colonel david hunt. indefinite quarantines of people

in china. 56 million. that is the size of south africa. >> yeah, the problem with this, we are very, very slow to react. china did not come up with the stuff, the information early enough clearly. but u.s. and the world is not reacting to this. this is, this is a virus without a cure. it is already spread as you said. almost worldwide. we have got to restrict, stop, terminate, all travel in and out of that region, not just china. and, we have got to start treating this very seriously. the russians, for crying out loud are trying to come up with a cure. this is a world wide effort to assist everyone to figure this one out. this, in my opinion, is already out of control because we, rest of the world were very, very slow to react. liz: cold spring harbor laboratory reports it is a super-spreader virus.

one person can infect five people. the coronavirus can be transmitted before anyone shows a sign of illness. that is different from sars. a shocking warning from a hong kong scientist telling the asian times, quote, the virus can infect 150,000 people a day ahead of peek. a new vaccine won't be ready for the olympics in tokyo. how can health authorities downplay it because they don't have information on the virus because china completed the genome dna sequencing on it? >> governments and bureaucracies always relate to these. not just the u.s. and world health organizations like the cdc, come into this very, very late. last week the amount of crap you're hearing on television and radio from doctors at cdc was table. we're in middle of it.

my concern, i don't see us or the rest of the world with severe enough reaction, just starting with travel. just that alone. let alone checking, let alone starting to quarantine. we have not yet restricted travel, stop, coming and going not just from china but throughout that region. that's critical. liz: that's critical. we're looking at a live shot of johnjohns hopkins university showing real time map of this. would you agree stop the political correctness, china, outlaw depraved, inhumane live animal markets? irony shutting down social media when their live animal markets are vectors for major global pandemics for years. sars, swine plus, coronavirus of the it is killing people. savaging animals in the grotesque way. it is hurting economies around the world. if u.s. had live animal markets, the u.s. would be hauled in

causing economic worldwide economic crises. stop the political correctness, enough, right? >> absolutely a direct shot at china. however at the same time, we have got to lead the rest of the world in this as always. we have got to get very dramatic how to defend against this and treat it. i do not believe the -- i believe that is political crap there will be cure by olympics. we don't have a cure now. everyone knows how hard that is to develop and distribute of the this should be our number one priority. it is not yet. not just u.s., the world. we can start with stopping the political correctness of course. liz: great point. colonel, thank you to so much. talking about gdp in china going down 1% that is 15 trillion-dollar economy. it is a sizable hit. it is a serious issue. thank you for your service to our country. thank you for your insights there. come back soon. next up critics warning that

biden campaign sent letters to facebook, google, twitter, block trump ads from the ukraine storyline. your reaction to that. >> it is amazing. it has not been looked at as it should be. the facts are there. hunter biden got lucrative job with a oil and fast company without having any experience after he took over relations with the ukraine administration. those are the facts. we exhaustively looked into trump on russia. we heard media talk about trump and ukraine. bogus. now to look at hunter biden. for a mainstream out let to say it is debunked is ridiculous statement to make. liz: look at his documents, tax returns, hands off on the bidens when it comes to going on there even msnbc analyst says this hunter biden story is not going away. >> donald trump is able to go out there and say, this guy's son was making $100,000 whatever it is a month, had no

experience? joe biden had the portfolio. god i heard that 1000 times on capitol hill this week. i don't think that message is going to go away. liz: the message, that is not going away. the criticism though of republican senators is this, why didn't you ask about the bidens and burisma until now? just like the president saying why didn't john bolton raise concerns for him. why did they wait so long to look into this. >> exactly. we had the verier to phase of impeachment that was done in the house. now of course they say they need additional witnesses. this is what they did with the kavanaugh hearings, a way to prolong this, not to get to the end point which is inevitable acquittal of the president. yes, there are real questions about burisma, about hunter biden. democrats don't want to ask them. it is amazing mainstream media used to care about this. during the obama administration you have a "new york times" article about it. obama being warned about hunter biden but no one cares now, now that biden is the mainstream democrat contender for the

presidency. liz: you know, also republican senators. where were they with the biden burisma issue until now? this has been out there for years. ukrainian ex-prosecutor, demand ukrainian's bureau of investigation look for joe biden with illegal influence on him. this the is prosecutor joe biden wanted ousted. quickly? >> the prosecutor he wanted ouster was also looking into his son hunter biden. he denies it now but those are the facts. liz: kayleigh, thanks so much for joining us. more on trump campaign advisor carter page holding democrats accountable if the government won't. he is you suing the democrat national committee for funding false opposition research, used by the fbi to spy on him? the story next.

[♪] liz: let's take a look at this live hot of the president's rally in iowa. the president is take the fight to the democrats on the eve of their caucus on monday. people have been lining up for a day in the bitter cold to get in. we have got incredible video we are going to show. the longest drug tunnel ever found on the southwest border
