look at this headline in the new york post. elon musk exposes media matters as an ideological shakedown operation, tammy bruce joins me. i love it when curtains are drawn and you see what's actually going on, the way people operate and that is what elon musk is trying to do by this lawsuit. lauren: it's not the first time. even taking over twitter he did that and twitter files revealing what has always been behind the scenes, the establishment has relied on

that kind of secrecy and i am making up for it and have been for quite some time, there is a network and it works to self replicate the dynamics of this is what we are seeing, nothing happens in a vacuum on the left, media matters act like the assignment desk for all the rest of the left. david: they weren't acting on real information, they were acting on a scheme where they created all these bots and so forth. >> they were expected to be

able to do something like this. attacking elon musk, weakening x as we move into an election year and what they did is selected a few accounts, not the 500 million users, targeted certain messages in those accounts, paraphrasing in the dynamic but engineered it so that certain ads, when it would appear randomly within one of their targeted accounts, that would then be there example of the risk to companies. david: and they found a way to engineer these bots right next to advertisers who said they were pulling advertisers from x but now there's no excuse for them not to rescind that. >> they haven't been able to

replicate what happened with what media matters reported but there's a problem with companies that may want an alibi with which to use their removal from x. we've got to make sure there's complete transparency, that everyone knows what's going on, that is what the elon musk lawsuit i believe is about with these allegations, the nature of it. david: the point is advertisers fell bored, a trick orchestrated by media matters and advertisers fell for it. they've got to pull that up, rescind that and go back to x. i got another one for you. jo manchin has a warning for those thinking of running for president as a third-party candidate, i know a third-party candidate myself or anyone else who wants to jump into that is a long shot. he's a great tease, that's what he does, he teases us, he is going to vote away and does it, does a lot of teasers, is he really going to run or is he teasing and then going to pull out.

>> he moves where the wind is blowing, that's why he is shifting. you have an impact on the conversation. running as a candidate in general, you get into the debates and able to move the narrative and get your points across, that is what matters you, what robert f kennedy junior is doing but if you are a third-party candidate you can change the way the election goes. with the machine and the systems that operate you will not be elected but you will affect the nature of who gets what votes by pooling from one or both candidates and we are talking about it again right now, this is a man who as donald or man is still trying to find himself. david: he is over 70. >> when you get past 50, thank you, hello, you begin to think about am i doing what i really should be doing, i didn't get

my dream and you become joe manchin. david: democrats are feared because of he does run, don't know about rfk junior but if he runs he will pool votes from biden. >> if you are going to be willing, voting for trump, like him or not because of the condition of the country it's not like you are clutching your pearls is it manchin or trump, nobody's doing that. with biden, my goodness. david: you came loaded. thank you very much. great stuff. great cranberry sauce. next year i want a little. all right. it is cozy. cranberry sauce. i love it. give me the rat. democrat dean phillips is apologizing after he criticized kamala harris. come back in. >> he said she's not up for the job of president should she

take over for president biden. i would say he is sort of walking that back, this is he what he wrote on x. i own an apology. in the atlantic i shared worries about the vice president because that is been my personal experience. i shouldn't have referenced other people's opinions. i own that and apologized to her and everyone else. so he started amplifying criticism because that's essentially what he did but isn't what his whole campaign is based on, that i love biden, he's a great person but if you look at the polling which is what everyone else thinks it is not working and by contrast or extension it is not working for kamala harris. david: what percentage of americans care at all, no offense but frankly -- lauren: they don't care. david: what's this about elon musk bringing headlines back to x? >> two months ago we were trying to understand it, he removed the headlines from x. >> that annoyed people like me

and you because you get a lot of traction for it. now you have the about-face. this is how musk explains it. in an upcoming release x will overlay the upper portion of the image so headlines are coming back. david: he listens to his consumers. back to the markets, trading pretty flat. it is 100 points. today is black friday, do you think it's going to be a good day for retailers? >> reporter: we get the fact that inflation is a tapeworm in the pocketbooks of america but i understand the economic trepidation but what i don't get is the bears have been wrong all year long, so yes, we see online sales and same store sales increasing to full employment, the market is up 19% year-to-date, the nasdaq is up 47% year to date. these are all reasons that will buoy consumer spending. david: let's talk specifics now. let's start with microsoft. >> reporter: microsoft has great ai potential and we are in challenging times, won't

happen this year. the economy is slowing down. we get it. being smart with her dollars but microsoft would keep growing their bottom line and that matters in an environment that challenging economically. you want to on the best stocks but there ai potential is enormous and that's when you want to keep for longer-term. david: it has that link with open ai after that kerfuffle a week ago, apparently working together. it's the best of all worlds. amazon. what about amazon. what are they doing? >> they had the second-best recording in history. earning double digits across all six revenues that they got and at the current trajectory, 15% a year for the next 5 years. that the stock you want to own especially at this time of year. david: meta-cuecue >> reporter: med it is blowing out earnings, great for cash flow. all the stocks, with big tech stocks and you want to make sure you on all of them because they are all growing earnings.

when we enter an environment economics are stale and the rest of the market is not growing because earnings are not growing because we just went through the best rate cycle increase in history want to own these in your portfolio. david: looking at the bottom of our big tech lineup. alphabet, which is trading down 1% but you like alphabet right now? >> i do. they got beat up in the last quarter but they are back up and tremendous ai play, these are all companies we can to live without. they have monopolies in their space. david: thanks for being here the day after thanksgiving, happy thanksgiving to you, have a great weekend. come back in. you are looking at the movers, let's start with marathon digital. lauren: crypto stocks higher. today, bitcoin hit the highest level of the year. cryptos are higher.

they disclose an unsolicited proposal, from a check a gun maker, the deal is valued at one. $7 billion or $30 a share which is a nice premium. david: we were talking about amazon, you have more details. lauren: the first-ever black friday gains and it will be on amazon prime video, not traditional tv. take out your phone, scan the qr code on screen and show amazon's classified ideals as you are watching football. david: the dallas game had you can't beat this. dolly parton, 77 years old, certainly does not show -- what did you think of that performance? >> i love dolly parton, i don't know anybody who does not love dolly parton and she looks amazing. david: that's not dolly obviously but there is dolly parton, 77. incredible. >> commentators talking about

how great for her performance was. david: hard not to talk about it. and she was great too, singing some clean songs. we are the champions. they won, is that why? kept that on my toes. david: the biden administration wants to ban gas stoves, why dies vice president harris have one in her home, we are all over that store. vladimir putin blaming ukraine for the lack of peace talks claiming russia was actually ready for talks to resume but critics say this is just a strategy to force ukraine back to the negotiating table. foreign policy expert chris white and deals with that and a temporary cease-fire between israel and hamas is now underway, allowing for the long-awaited release of some of the civilian hostages. alex hogan has a full report from northern israel coming next.

hostage release now is underway. christian white and joins me now. my major question, will hamas stretch out the hostage release, this is for 50 of the 250 hostages they have but will they stretch it out as long as possible to continue the cease-fire where they can regroup as often as possible? >> absolutely. this deal looks worse by the minute. half of those being released our nationals of thailand. the other half, israelis, no americans at all. and yes, in exchange for this not only is israel giving up three prisoners for every one prisoner that hamas releases and that's giving up three hamas terrorists for one innocent civilian, it cost them a cease-fire.

david: if israel says enough is enough, they are regrouping good, we've got to start the war again full-scale, you know they will use that worldwide network of anti-israel protesters to get out in the streets and save the israelis are committing genocide here. >> the political warfare by hamas has been impressive. the downside is it is vetted somewhat by the biden administration which is sending a mixed message. president biden did go to his real and met with prime minister netanyahu but on the other time every time we talk about israel, we are trying to urge a cease-fire and urging they comply with the laws of war which they do anyway. so yes. it's going to be a big freak out when israel eventually and inevitably must turn south to finish the war.

lauren: it reminds me of the soviet union's effect on anti-war protesters, remember that? >> yes. i just watched vietnam, 10,000 day war. the vietnamese were very candid about how helpful the peace movement was to their efforts. david: let's talk about russia, the war in ukraine specifically, vladimir putin says we have to start thinking about how to stop, quote, the tragedy as the war in ukraine, putin says he never refused peace talks with ukraine. what does he mean by all this? >> and war everyone lies about everything. there's duplicity in this. russia has been open to peace talks throughout this process, not at the level that peace talks never happen that they always use envoys because someone will end up with egg on their face but the expectations, the preconditions

have been unrealistic on both sides and applies to ukraine where the ukrainians said as a precondition all russian forces have to be out of ukraine. that's tantamount to russia losing. russia saying ukraine must demilitarized, that's tantamount ukraine becoming a province of russia. the fact that putin is still putting out these feelers is probably a good thing because russia has had a good turn recently, the ukrainian counteroffensive over spring and summer essentially failed and russia made some gains and is in a war of attrition which are much smaller country. p stocks might not be the worst idea. david: he is an old kgb guy, putin is, he knows how to test, take the temperature of the us public. he knows the public in the united states is getting a little wary and a little weary of the funding the war in ukraine, he is playing on that as well, isn't he? >> that's right and americans have tired, if you look at polls, past the high watermark

of sending anybody to ukraine, congress will still appropriate more funds but won't be as much as the administration requested and the administration tries to conflate israel and ukraine, most americans will see those as something different. putin's of the mind the time is on his side politically here. david: the last one, this is a pet peeve of mine. the imf, we are the chief, one of the chief funders of the imf, the international monetary fund. they spend money, lend money to countries all over the world, nicaragua has a socialist kleptocracy, a terribly run economy. they have essentially run it into the ground because of their socialist policies. here's what the imf says about the economy, its main resilience in the face of multiple shocks supported by appropriate economic policies. appropriate economic policies? substantial buffers and multilateral support. the us holds a majority stake in the imf and they come out with this. what do you make of it? >> not like the world health organization where we have to deal with the rest of the un. we have a degree of control here. it was run by ortega which if you member the 1980s was a communist rule of the country, pushed out and came back in, kind-ism, socialism has ruined that country and for the imf to say anything or do anything helpful until there's political change in nicaragua is just rewarding bad behavior.

david: it is a repressive government, they are locking up priests. they have archbishop they have held in prison for a year now. it is not only terrible economic policy but a repressive regime. >> this is par for the course for these international organizations. david: a lot of people say they are the collection agency for the banks. that's what the imf does. they don't care who pays were, they are just interested in getting bond payments for the banks, keeping them going. >> at best they are keynesian and at worst socialists. david: russian and chinese business execs have held secret talks about building an underwater tunnel. where would the tunnel go. neil: from crimea to russia. it would be under the sea, it could be more secret as well.

chinese companies have been in talks with russian officials according to the paper and this means russia plans to maintain control of crimea, and china could face more sanctions because they are helping russia. brian: president biden likes to stay home, some of the richest people in the country. we have those details and a bomb threat forces a mall in new jersey to evacuate, and the american dream mall with the latest on that coming up next. the chase ink business premier card is made for people like sam, who make- everyday products, designed smarter.

david: checking the markets a tale of two cities, the dow is well over hundred right now, trading at 108 but the s&p and the nasdaq are down so we got a split decision what happened with the markets, early trading day, we trade only until 1:00 pm eastern time so only a few more hours. you are looking at some of the other movers, let's start with nvidia. lauren: china is 1/5 of their

overall revenue, they are delaying a new chip for china. it's one of the special chips, one of three, to not evade them, to abide by them in the first quarter of next year. david: nordstrom. lauren: stock is down 11 or 12%. from what i can tell online it seems you're getting bigger than usual discount on luxury items, directing traffic and sales, 130 million people are expected to shop this plaque friday. david: tal education. >> in china, new high, gain of 10%, goldman sachs like the competitive advantage in an technology. david: china going out with education and we are going in the opposite direction. a bomb threat forcing the american dream mall in new jersey to evacuate. gerri willis is at the american

dream mall in east rutherford, new jersey. what's happening there? >> reporter: it was a scary a few minutes earlier this morning when the bomb threat was called into the american dream mall here. we were on hand and we counted some dozens or so state troopers including three with long guns. we were evacuated outside of the mall and outside the parking garage with about a hundred employees, possibly even more consumers but this bomb threat was serious. they had 40 to 50 state trooper vehicles, bomb sniffing dogs, armored vehicles, helicopters overhead but this kind of crowd, don't know why, maybe it was of a threat, or this year's black friday, not as many folks as i expected in this mall today, fairly light crowd. we will wait and find out what the situation is in other parts of the country but people who do go out and shop are going to

be awarded with a lot of discounts. that is what is going on across the country. we see best buy, macy's and walmart already offering 30% discounts this holiday season. the national retail federation says sales year-to-year will be up 3% to 4%. i can tell you that is not a big gain compared to other years. go back to 2019 to find the year that had a lower gain in retail sales. everything is back to normal. i am happy to report the american dream mall said they are most concerned about the safety of their employees and customers and getting us out of this place. all quiet at american dream mall. david: got to air on the side of safety. that incident up north.

peter morici joins me now. let's talk about sales. we don't know what retail sales will look like but today's actual discounts, are they real discounts or just bringing prices back to the pre-pandemic levels. >> compared to the prices that were available last week, we see it come in my email for various retailers and so forth, they are offering better prices today than before the sale. what's going on is the economy is slowing. the retail sales after inflation, 1% and what are economists predicting in the next 3 quarters, 1%. it is in line. a slow down, not a recession. david: you think will be a soft landing, which means essentially because we still have inflation, we could call it stagflation. >> it is not a soft landing if

you have inflation. get down to 2% but i think the white house will be heralding a soft landing, the trump campaign will be telling us how awful the world's. the reality is the truth is someplace in the middle and this president is in trouble because so so economy is not great. david: we got a new survey showing 25% of americans are still carrying debt from last year's holiday season. that debt is now going up to 25, sometimes 29% on these credit cards. that's a big problem. isn't it? >> yes. we heard people have pandemic savings and on average they do but there's a lot of variability in the economy. example is michigan, reeling comes down even though autoworkers are getting big raises. the lady down the street the works, the waitress at the diner is not adding this big raise, biden is behind trump in

michigan after landing that contract, indicates a lot of people in the economy are not doing as well as the average. real wages are down, there is still pandemic savings around but many people are in the hole and that's the reason the economy is becoming the issue that it is the gif it wasn't the middle east at all the rest. david: mortgage rates have come down a little bit but they are well over 7% if you try to purchase a car on credit you will be paying huge interest rate as well, so interest rates in general are big and there's a macro situation which is treasury is going to be issuing $1.6 trillion of new bonds over the next couple quarters, at the same time the fed is not buying as much as they used to so in order to sell those new bows, treasury has to lift rates so they will have pressure for rates to stay up. >> the interest rate in a 10 year treasury has gone up much more than last increase in the federal funds rate.

last april, they raised 1/4 point, the rate on treasury is up 0.6 of a point even though it has come down from summer highs. this is a lien quarter for new treasury securities, treasury isn't doing what it did in the last quarter. the beginning of next year they will need a lot more money again and i would think we will have this problem. there's another problem too. because the fed moves so slowly on inflation, we are looking at along period in the housing market. those houses that didn't get built are not available for sale or rent so housing prices are going up because we had this slow-motion response. the joint effect of mortgage rates will stay a long time, treasuries borrowing and spending so much in too few houses around. david: thank you, have a good weekend, appreciate it.

president biden has been vacationing at homes owned by some of the richest people in the country. how much do these homes cost? lauren: $84 million. he is no ordinary joe. the bidens spent thanksgiving in nantucket, $39 million, then they stayed at the home of tom steyer, $20 million and reportedly paying market price for this one. they say it wins 20 million homes, there is and his favorite, $4 million, i was looking at the pictures. it is just beautiful. that's where he spends new year's. david: what gets americans is the hypocrisy, plain old joe and the same with obama, former

president obama just introduced this new thing he calls inclusive capitalism to address inequality between the richest and poorest, meanwhile when he is saying we have to get used to having less, he has a beach home in martha's vineyard, 30 acres right on the water, a beach home in hawaii where he grew up, he's got a dc mansion worth millions of dollars and a chicago mansion worth millions of dollars. i don't see him worried about his own inequality from the average joe. lauren: and some dishonesty in this, never discloses this as gifts from where he stays. you've got fancy rich friends, fine, at least to be honest this is where we are spending thanksgiving and not paying for it. david: don't say everyone has to deal with having less when you have more. thank you very much. now this. a frightening new study revealing that eating just one bag of chips a day can increase your risk of cancer by 25%.

what is up with that story? hospitals and china are overwhelmed with the surge of respiratory illness and pneumonia among children, the world health organization wants answers. is this cause for concern? doctor marty makary is going to break it down for us coming up next.

david: the u.s. army just sent a letter to soldiers discharge for refusing the covid vaccine. the question is are they now trying to get them back? lauren: yes. the army missed recruitment targets by 10,000 this year so they sent letters to 1903 soldiers who did refuse to get the covid shot to reenlist. it would reinstate them if they met all requirements was only 19 of 1900 discharged have rejoined so far but maybe there will be more. david: we hope there are but good luck after the way they

were treated. now this. the world health organization wants more details from china about the surge of respiratory illnesses in children. doctor marty makary joins me. after all we went through do you think we are going to get any details and data from the chinese on this? >> people are understandably concerned when you hear about a new outbreak in china, the who is public and their demands about china almost to overcompensate for their actions during the covid pandemic. putting out a position that looks tough on china but the reality is this is not one infection but multiple infections. at the cluster, probably seasonal, and viruses. we believe walking pneumonia, a new infection we haven't seen a lot of lately is one of those infections. it affects children suggesting it is the immunity debt. they are one season away from

total lockdowns. kids have been sheltered. we've not seen these adult infections. may be the immunity debt in children not getting typical seasonal viruses. right now we have to be concerned about it is not clear that there is any harm. david: not much contagion between children and adults. that's encouraging because of the condition in the outside world. >> we have to watch the patterns, it is not like what we were about. david: i read the headline and it seemed something must be wrong but it sounds like a legitimate story. eating one bag of chips each day could increase the threat of throat and mouth cancer by 25%. is that credible? >> not sure if you love potato chips or not. i like them. david: i love them.

nothing like it. >> it is interesting these researchers in the university of bristol proposed a mechanism by which chips might cause increase in the throat and esophagus cancer. it wasn't directly the chips. what it did, it changed the micro biome, the garden of bacteria that normally live in the g.i. tract and that imbalance is what instigated some of these cancers. maybe there is something there but for now, nutritional studies need better data. david: don't give up the chips. >> i suggest giving up the beer before the chips. david: doctor marty makary.

it is not too late to send your friday feedback. let us know if you plan on sending big this friday, varneyviewers@fox.com. republicans are slamming the pentagon after it asked for millions of dollars to pay for diversity initiatives. don't we have bigger problems to address in the world, jason rantz on that coming next. ♪

department of defense didn't give specifics, isn't the point of the department of defense to protect the country, some republicans are exceptionally mad because the dod failed at annual audit for the sixth year in a row. where is this money going? david: a lot of soldiers and marines are mad about this. we are falling back on recruits, they want more they i spending, isn't this whole business a reason why recruitment is down? >> you are talking folks who normally would join, telling them they are racist and have to be socially engineered into becoming better citizens. it is offensive to anyone considering serving this

country. it is a slap in the face to that. the whole purpose of any no one can see it which makes it easier to sell your services for $10,000 in our for a seminar so you can say that thing you can't see is the reason why racism permeates your workforce. a lot of us have stopped talking about this but it hasn't gone away. it is just adopted by corporate entities in a different way but the language being used by they i experts is the same. it is about shaming people because of the color of their skin. we used to say judging people on the color of their skin was racist but now we are saying

you not only have to do it but it is woke to do it and if you are not, you are not accepting your own white privilege. david: martin luther king jr. had it right, judged by the character, not by the color of your skin. last one, portland, oregon, trying to turn the city around the, crime, homelessness, drugs, all running rampant. offering new incentives to businesses and developers to try to stop them running away but is it too late to get businesses to stay?

>> it is going to be enough, they still have the problems they had before. to stay in the downtown core is a great idea and more should adopt that. if they are claiming that is complaining about crime and homelessness, the portland police bureau is incredibly understaffed as is the case fo

magee, on anti-israeli protesters disrupting.
