house for sprayed blank what's the latest very suspect this is a key advisory group helping up the cdc they are the advisory committee for immunization practices. after a lengthy discussion a little while ago they have voted to recommend that frontline healthcare workers be the first one to eventually get a covid-19 vaccine it comes down the line potential in the upcoming weeks but here's the recommendation. what a covid-19 vaccine is authorized by fda and recommend by a cip fox nation in the initial phase of the covid-19 program should be offered to both one, healthcare personnel, and to residents of long-term care facilities were to be you talk about healthcare workers, that list includes those who work at those long-term healthcare facilities along with those in hospitals, outpatient facilities home healthcare pharmacies ems workers and public health officials. right now jerry they're roughly 21 million adults of the u.s. or healthcare professionals for that is about 8% of the adult

population. as for those in nursing homes, it is about 1.3 million individuals out of a 1.7 beds available. add it all up you're talking about 22, 23 million individuals the advisory committee just recommended they be the first one to get the vaccines. one thing to keep in mind though, this is an advisory group for the cdc. this is their recommendation. what they think should happen. at the end of the day when there is a vaccine and that gets distributed out to the states, it will be the governors who eventually have the final say within their states as to where a vaccine may or may not initially go. vectors quickly, is a 22, 23 million people in that first order of priority. i think the companies that are making these vaccines have said maybe they have 20, 30 million doses available quickly. any sense of how quickly, once they are approved they will be able to get the vaccines to the people who are first

priority? everything we've heard from operation warp speed is when there's approval from the fda it should be out the door than 24, maybe 36 hours. we know the fda is going to take up pfizer on december 10, 9 days for now. moderna week after that. it's certainly possible your time but the first dose of the fox nation at some point in the middle of this month. blake thank you so very much indeed. the race to the vaccine is unfolding as lawmakers inched closer to a covid relief bill. speaker pelosi sec. treasury edition spoke again today. there is a quote slimmer proposal be inflicted by senate republicans. at a bipartisan group of senators and leadership from the house problem solvers caucus unveiled their own proposal. with one senator calling it quote stupidity on steroids. do not do a bill before christmas. watch this. suspect that that night at a billion-dollar framework which will take us in december 1 through march 31. not going to make everybody

happy. but there's been an enormous amount of work done. there's been a lot of enormously good give and take. i came to this with the notion i am hearing from virginians, somebody is it in a brother turned that it would be stupidity on steroids if congress left for christmas without doing an interim package as a bridge. perhaps cynics would say it would not be the first time congress is demonstrated stupidity on steroids. joining me now is congressman, former house speaker oversight committee jason, thank you for joining me. thanks jerry. what are the odds of some kind of stimulus, some kind of cares and mark that we are going to get before the end of the year? before the end of congress? i think the odds are pretty good. now that the election, the voting is done i think that democrats will loosen up some of their demands. i don't think there's any way that nancy pelosi for instance

was going to do a package prior to the election. i just hope it as as clean a bill as possible. they were a lot of superb listings in these other bills. stuff that had absolutely nothing to do with coronavirus. if they keep the build clean, the key but risible, there's no reason why both ends of the political spectrum can't come together and get this done. you think a bill is likely to include some provision for fox nation? it's going to be a expensive. pelosi said the bill should contain that. you think that will be ended? >> yes and that is germane to the topic at hand. i think and making sure they fox nation is widely available and prioritized for first responders, nurses, doctors people like that. and there is not a cost to the american people. they ultimately pay it in the forms of taxes per there's still a bill for the american people. but the immediate need to come up with a credit card or cash

to do it i think can be part of that relief package. but there are small businesses, big businesses like airlines and others that do need relief and they need it now. democrats are still pushing them at a big bailout for those states particular blue states that if got themselves into a deep physical problems. republicans i'm guessing are not warming to that idea. i think that is where fiscal conservatives are very concerned. there's more than $100 billion. what i read in this 900 plus billion-dollar package that would go to states, putting some guardrails where they can use it how they can use it so it doesn't just grow government. we went through this with the rock obama and joe biden. ed 787 billion-dollar package that was supposed to go through infrastructure and that sort of thing. but less than 5% actually did that. the concern is that's going to be repeated unless you actually put some guardrails. give it to the people who need it, people who live in a

restaurant, people who really actually need that relief and they can get it soon. senate republicans of talked about a slimmer proposal. something much on the order of what you've been talking up at what are the odds would be included in that? or the odd something like that get passed? >> you would've thought they could have got this done for five months ago. i would like to say into the election is over that is good. the slimmer the package in terms of making sure its focus on those who need it increases the odds. but when you start throwing and provisions about immigration and these types of things, that has absolutely nothing to do with what is needed for covid relief, then you got a lot of people throw up their hands and sam not going to be party to it. congressmen were got two other big news today teacher attorney general william barr announcing the prosecutor he has appointed to investigate aspects to do with the russian investigation, making him a

special counsel. which i think as you can explain what that means. it sorta protects him and means that investigation will be ongoing to the biden administration. give us response to that. will evidently this designation happened back in october. were turning the corner into december. it basically means the investigation can continue. even under a new attorney general. they firing of this person is near impossible. you'd have to come up with some really good reasons to do it. you can't just say he is an at will employee and then terminate this. he's a special prosecutor, has a budget, has special resources has the ability to go get the documents he needs. also the wherewithal to do so without having an attorney general or someone fire him along the way. this a real important step it up disappointed the investigation didn't wrap up before the election part of so curious to know what mr. durum has found.

gerry: in seattle democratic mayor general any ducker kin plans to >> democratic mayor durgin planned to sign a new 2021 city budget that will cut the police budget thereby 18%. at the same time homicides in the city had the highest level in more than a decade. joining me now seattle-based radio show host jason rantz. jason thank you for joining me. thanks for having me. heard the mayor of your fair city referred to is going on there, the violence, vandalism, the writing jenn love. is the summer of no seat homicide rising with the budget being cut. to be expected winter of love to? ut i would imagine so pray think of the tragic of desperate they were debating how much more there going to deep on the seattle police. there were two stabbings brewed by the stabbings was a

random person walking in downtown seattle, stabbed in the neck. the good news is he's going to be okay. the badges is that second stabbing was a caseworker who was working on essentially a facility for formerly homeless people who were getting help to get their lives back in order. she was stabbed to death. this was happening while we were talking about cutting more funds from the police. we have 55 homicides this year. that is up for context from 28 lastth year. things are not going wellin seattle. i can't sam surprised by these statistics. we just had an election here where they put their hands up after the election said this whole deep on the police they was a disaster for the party especially in house speaker races. here you are coming got rising crimes terrible sappy or cutting the police budget.

with the political reaction pray the political reaction in the northwest is generally different than what's going on nationally. here you and brace you end up getting reelectedd" part if you get the deet next to your name, the chances are including if you are literally a sack of potatoes you are going to have a high chance, if not a for sure certainty that you're actually going to get elected or reelected. regardless of your results as someone whoou has already been in office. and so simply taking on and parroting some of the talking points coming from the activist community, it basically needs your going to empower for a very long time. we are just output it in perspective heard we are going into your 16 of a tenure plan to end homelessness. so we don't necessarily judge results here in seattle to be judged talking points and the ability to a count how and placate some of the very loud and very angry activist.

right now this activist happened to be anti- police. they have the years of the council the mayor's office. >> your still getting widespread violence and vandalism. supposedly joe biden was elected president. it's a bullying tactic by left-wing radicals what's going on what are they want to see these sign of more dead cops. anarchy? it's interesting you have two different groups within that large seattle. number will be cut the police department budget by 18%. there are some that want to cut it by 50%. maybe they a threw that number out there little too quickly.

but they still intend to get to 50%. so the group was the victims of being over promise and under delivered. but then you got another loud group, it'she much smaller than the 50% crowd that literally want to see the abolition of opolice. they want to get rid of the prisons pray they want to get rid of prison sentences. they are not hiding some of these positions. and they do have allies. click on the city council, the town council, the city legislatures. theret are people are starting to apparently more fringe positions. at least not fully adopting them, they are at least sympathetic towards them. when it is just empowering these people. last night we had essentially a riot of protesters who were out there doing what they do. vandalizing big business. terrorizing neighborhoods. please start really loud to do their jobs.

part of the problem is we have the lowest of police deployable staff in the city m seattle 1990 pray to let that sink in. we are seeing a mass exodus of officers who continue to leave. received almost 150 officers assure who have left. we believe, i believe on the sources i've talked to the numbers we get closer to 200 and the next month. i got 100 officers out to different agencies around the region. this ismu not going to get better. jason thank you very much. for the people's republic of seattle think you did for joining us. >> next gregg from the house judiciary angers by governor gavin newsom who wants you to follow their tough covid-19 lockdown measures. they get themselves a pass to break them. >> i did not have aic choice. to me it was if i close again, i won't be able to reopen at all.

journal explained why that is not true. tells what you think was behindl this. >> i think it's true the israelis have been gunning for this scientist, ide think you can say i iranians prime bomb maker for some time. it's hard to say within the got a particular peace of intercept, human intelligence that decided to go for. i think the real view is israel has an x essential threat from nuclear iran, iran has military bases with substantial ballistic mission and syria is a serious threat to them. from the united states is just not true. iran is not an x essential threats. this discrepancy is decisive. i think as the united states continues to sort of re- trench s from the middle east are going to see them step up more there's been a substantial uptick in the

operations in iran for it i don't think that is diminishing, it will complicate without a doubt the biden administration's attempt to reach out and restart nuclear negotiations which israelis have zero faith in. >> you mentioned an addition to taking out a very dangerous and skilled scientist, this israeli action was taking messages sending a number of messages to the iranian people in the middle east pre-tells a bit about that. it is the primary message or setting to the middle east as they can challenge i iranians. and i iranians can't do that much and response. the israelis have been pummeled seeing the revolutionary guards for almost two years. the iranian revolutionary guard corps controls theee

nuclear program has been really unable to respond to which they've lost substantial life and manpower in this material. so israelis are singling very clearly very clearly. it certainly fortifies these fine went very courageous when comes to iranian threats. >> if biden does commit his team is talk about possibly redoing, resurrecting, giving theou u.s. back in the iranian nuclear dear, how do you think that will play out? the eye iranians are waiting to 70 billions of dollars he biden administration is prepared to throw before tax even begin. i think it's going to be complicated. one i think the israelis will continue to cause problems

because they do not believe that these nuclear discussions can lead to anything terribly productive. and i think the eye iranians are also going to be hesitant. it won't be hesitant to take our money but they are going to be very hesitant to make any concessions that are real and substantial and go beyond the jc poa. i would expect the tension between israel and iran to go up. i would expect to see more israeli operations. and i think washington is going to have a very difficult time coercing these israelis to cease and desist. thank you for your typically excellent wall street journal editorial, thanks so much indeed. for more on the diplomatic repercussions i want to bring in the former secretary of defense and directory of the state, leon panetta. thank you for being with a very subject good to be with you. >> ben rose served in the obama administration describe this killing of this iranian scientist as outrageous but he

said it's undermining the new administration's diplomacy. as we just talked about perhapsta even sabotaging that diplomacy is that your view? >> having worked with him when i was cia director, they have for a long time targeted various individuals in iran. it does not come as much of a surprise that they would try the top nuclear scientist. as to its implications, obviously it fits in with all of the other tensions in that area, surrounding iran, surrounded the united states, surrounding israel as well as the region. there is no question that it complicates the effort i am sure by the biden administration to try and reestablish a nuclear agreement with iran.

>> as the biden administration is prepared to take office, they have talked about the possibility of getting back into the nuclear deal. president trump a second very different approach. what you think the odds are thatat they will be able to route resurrect that? to establish u.s. involvement in the deal? >> it's going to take a lot of effort to get there. i thinknk it's important that they work with our allies who are involved in the nuclear agreement. it cannot just be the united states operating on its own. they're going to have to include great britain, france, germany, china to put some pressure on whether or not iran is willing to back off of what they have been doing in terms of nuclear enrichment. it is not going to get easy for them to be willing to operate within those limits. they are going to ask for economic assistance because of

the feeling their economy has been damaged by the united states pulling out of the nuclear agreement. and now with the killing of this nuclear scientists, and the effort by iran to see some kind of reciprocity, that too could complicate it. it is not going to be easy to do. >> president trumpmp a second very different approach the middle east from all his predecessors pretty downplayed the centrality of the issue. eight emphasize instead challenging iran, pulling out of the nuclear deal in building an alliance of nations israel some of the arab states who are natural adversities of iran. turned upside down the chessboard in the middle east.pe even they have been critical of president trump in many respects, do you think that was a significant achievement by this administration? do you expect the biden administration to fundamentally change that and go back to the way in which

u.s. administrations oppose the middle east before? >> i think on the contrary. i think the biden administration has made clear that it will try to reassert united states world leadership. i think something that the trump administration gradually withdrew from a leadership role and undermined a lot of our alliances in regard to nato. with regards to the middle east i think i think the united states is going to continue to playle a role and working with our air friends in the middle east, and working with israel to confront twore adversaries. onee is iran, and the second is terrorism. i don't think there will be any effort to try and undermine the work that has been done to build those alliances and work with him to

red state. we have a governor, lieutenant governor, all eight constitutional republicans. with that majorities in the state senate and statehouse print its estate that recognizes the importance of having someone who looks to the lens of a small business owner. someone looks of the lens of a family. someone who looks of the lens of what it takes to represent george's values. i think we've got to senators in place that currently do that. we just have to keep reminding folks bigger mind in the suburbs, remind them in georgia that we got the right direction here in georgia. sherry think there's a point things we can point back to that partner unemployment rate is extremely low compared to other states. that is because our governor, governor campos continuing to put the balance inin place. lives and livelihoods. thank you, all eyes on georgia for the next few weeks, thank you very muchex and deed lieutenant governor geoff duncan. coming up tony gonzales breaks down away trump did so wellin

♪. gerry: to the border now and immigration. president subject to the border now in immigration. president trump has been hammered nonstop by critics who say he is anti-immigrant. so how is that that trump did so wellin many counties along

the border with mexico? let's welcome texas congressman elect tony gonzales for he's a mexican-american who previously spent time in the navy. >> thank you for having me. >> it is striking we listen for the last four years to the media telling us how bigoted and anti- immigrants and anti- mexican and hispanic president trump is. yet we saw on the election last month how well president trump did. in terms of getting hispanic votes, did very wellin florida. but particularly strikingly wellin texas. you look on the maps of the counties along the border. he increased his vote and enormously. tell us why that is paid why president trump actually did so well? >> the president of both hispanics because while some hispanics may be democrats, they are not socialists. they believe in rule of law. specifically in my district which is 800 miles of texas and mexican border. they believe in the american

dream. and they believe at the heart of the american dream is security. as i made my way around the district, border patrol agents and experts have told me time and time again that a wall makes sense, in certain spots. but, we've got to do more than that. gotta get resources to the men and women that are joined the work. dhs, ice, border control pretty got to add technology drones and sensors as well. >> you probably sawst president obama was out there last week essentially saying once again hispanics were voting against their own interests because things like abortion matter more to them than the fact that they are hispanic. i thought it was another example, tell me what you think about how democrats team to take for granted the hispanic votes. they expect them to vote democratic no matter what the democrats actually do. seven south and west texas, i am mexican-american.

specifically mexican merrick and faith and family is everything. that wasun art messages we our way around the district. this is the heart of the american dream. i would argue d that they just want to live the american dream. and the american dream does not always start in america. i would love nothing more than this conversation to shift for the wall or give against the wall are you for legal immigration? because i believe most americans are ready for immigration refor reform. >> when you think happens at the biden administration takes office next month rolls back the presidents measures to restrict illegal immigration the country? spinning out just at the border last week. and it is dangerous. it is dangerous if we take a back. take a step forward. there is no doubt that this country needs to come together. we need to come together to solve this problem, specifically in congress. this isn't an executive solution, right? and executive order is not

going to solve this itsng congresses job. i look forward to getting up your and congress in working on this problemro set. you think may begin the president's relative success among the hispanics in the election, perhaps suggest the beginning of a new republican coalition here? the voters again put aside perhaps the way in which democrats thought about for so long racial identity, their sexual identity, whatever, think about the interest and the republican party has an ability by appealing to what matters to those voters to get more of those voters and build a winning coalition. suspecting what's exciting about the new class? the messenger matters. i am mexican-american, i'm able to go to communities and immediately relates by telling my story. by telling the american dream is open to all of us. at thern heart and that is free enterprise and limited government. most texans just want to live their lives.

government ishe never going to solve their problems. so free enterprise, limited government, being respectful of one another.. and once again having a foundation in faith and family is what i believe alliance at most hispanics, specifically mexican americans with the republican party. congressman elect tony gonzales congratulations again look forward to seeing more of you in washington. i am gerry baker you're watching the evening edit on foxbusiness. thanks for watching and have a very good evening. bell."
