more -- >> where i come from, we have to make sure the u.s. leads the way. >> right now, if you're joe biden, you have a problem and everybody knows it. to your earlier question, what's going to change? it's incumbent upon him to say i'm out. >> said this four times, there's

an incentive to give in to compromise on republicans for more sturdy policy. i don't know what we're doing in the house or not sending investigators straight to the white house. >> i don't know more of a diagram you need to draw and show foreign enties we're paying for access into joe biden's pocket. david: yeah, haven't met you yet. you've met me before. i'm david asman in for stuart varney. it's 11:00 a.m. on the east coast. markets in the green but relatively in the green. the dow is barely up 11 points and nasdaq is doing a little better percentage wise, up 25 points and s&p up 13. show me big tech if you can get the board up there. it's microsoft and apple are

down just a bit and meta, alphabet and amazon are trading in the plus side. the 10-year treasury, i believe it's up, the rate is up a little bit. yes, five basis points and still trading below 4%. the yield is 3.96. now this, chicago fed president austin goolsby says it's too early to declare victory over inflation, watch. >> we still get one more month of data, but 2023 looks like it's going to end up being a very substantial reduction in inflation without a big increase in the unemployment rate. that's the golden path i talked about. we're still above the target. we've got to get inflation down to target before it -- until we're convince that had we're on path to that, it's an overstatement to be counting the chickens. david: steve forbes joining me

now. he's a nice guy. >> friendly democrat. david: yeah, but in this case, he's saying things about inflation that sound like some of the stuff you're saying. he's sounding more conservative on inflation than i thought he'd be. >> yeah, but he still belows in the phillips curve in the way to conquer inflation by slowing a economy. that's the danger. they're still worried about high level of unemployment in the country. so even if they get things down next year, they pick that 2% figure up, by the way out of thin air, even if they get it down, they are in line to make the same mistake they made in the 1970s, which is they then go about undermining the integrity of the dollar. you're starting to see the dollar wobble a bit. that's deliberate and all currencies in bad shape right now. crisis is brewing and let them enjoy while they can. david: he wants to get innation down to core rate of 2%. is that possible next year?

>> the key thing is they never discuss the value of dollar and prices go up and down and bottlenecks because of government policies and let the markets set the prices keep the dollar stable in value and good things will happen. there's not one central bank in the world that understands the value of currency. david: gold is up to $2,050, that's pretty high and down a bit from that but well over 2,000. $2,036. >> that gets to the collar. a year ago dollar got strong and other countries complained and they deliberately weakened the dollar and gold went down a bit and now they're weakening the dollar again to make their friends happy and other cap capitals. keep it stable in value. don't float it each day. day. david: is there three rate cuts next year? >> i wish they'd leave it alone but, yes, and why because there's an election. low and behold. david: that's quite a chart.

you think the fed might manipulate rates to make joe biden look better? >> i'd never think such a thing but when powell was running for reappointment, there was a mammoth increase in 2021 and borrowed back short term and reverse repos and $2.5 trillion and created the money and borrowed it back david: next one, steve. 53% of high school students will have to take personal finance questions before graduation and pennsylvania became the 25th state to offer courses. what do you think about this? >> how about offering in congress? how about offering in state legislatures? david: what are you saying? they don't understand economics? finance? >> they understand politics and that's the problem. it's a gad thing depending on how they teach the course. i want to see the curriculum but

it's good to understand. you spend more and get in trouble. library. david: all the critical theory courses on race, and i suspect it'll be in line. >> it's too bad but it's good to get those basics and helps you not get in trouble. one thing about the first credit card is you don't realize small charges add up. david: by the way, you have five beautiful, wonderful girls in your family. they're now grown women of course, but did you teach them about finance when growing up? >> yes, i was not very generous with the allowances and -- david: good for you. they're all great ladies. >> yes, they are. thank you. david: have a wonderful christmas. >> you too, david. thank you. david: check the markets and jason katz is with me. jason, look ahead to 2024. what are you expecting?

>> there's three main drivers to look at. one is interest rates, two is earnings and three is multiple expansion. with respect to interest rates and, you know, in light of what you're talking about with steve as far as rate cuts, the market knows what it knows so i would say that's discounted to the market and we may be getting ahead of the skis and stamping out the last ember of inflation is very challenging. >> austin wants to stamp out the flicker of inflation with the 2% core level. >> there's other fed officials that have dialed back and walked back some of the narrative that you heard out of powell and company last week. then you have earnings and we expect earnings to grow around 9, 10% and very good in light of earnings recession and is it good enough? good enough to expand in multiples? david: the last couple of weeks? >> precisely. the multiple is over 20 times earning ands hard pressed to think on index level, on s&p

level that investors are willing to pay off that much more and however beneath the surface, i think there's ample opportunity because the average multiple of the average stock in the s&p is only around 14 times earning and the mag 7 and a lot. david: if i have a portfolio heavy in bonds and have a lot of money in the six month bonds or one year bonds over 5%, should i take some out and put it in markets or should i wait? >> probably want to wait if you want to deploy it, probably want to in small cap or value and i sat here for months talking to stuart about saying why not park it in gazebo. yes, for cash alternatives, most certainly but the time to really extend durations sort of that ship has sailed.

so look, i think we're heading into a year r for tax selling and bonds and people that bought at the wrong time and in spite of small cap rallying, what, 18% off the bottom, there's ample room for that to run and in the new year, i let markets come in a bit and look to cyclical parts of the economy and the market to invest. david: sounds like what you're saying is ride those short term bonds to maturity and begin to deploy; is that right? >> exactly right. david: jason katz, great to see you, my friend. thank you very much. lauren, you're taking a look at marathon petroleum, what's that? lauren: oil stocks in general as you can see here are higher after some of the top shipping companies in the world have suspended operations in the red sea after tax against international shipping in resent weeks and dunses of commercial vehicles are going around to avoid the critical suez canal.

at the school for not cracking down on growing anti-semitism and eric sean is here with more. eric, how is the school responding to this? >> there's lots of responses, david, because in 2019, there was a change in the federal civil rights law. former president trump did that at the time. he opened up universities to be sued for anti-semitism and now, well, because of that the suits are piling up. uc berkeley being pseudo-by the human rights law. it's called a hostile environment and unchecked spread of anti-semitism. berkeley is accused of barring jewish students from activities and groups and barring them from am cap pus and one student said she does not feel safe on the berkeley campus because she's jewish. she says her claims are dismissed after she raised concerns about anti-semitism. >> i have received communication

that tells me this, like, accept the status quo or else just like how i received an e-mail from someone that works at the university saying that as a jewish student leader to keep myself safe i should avoid certain parts of the campus. >> the university says in part "uc berkeley believes the claims made in the lawsuit are not consist with the first amendment or the constitution or with the facts of what is actually happening on our campus. university has long been committed to confronting anti-semitism and supporting the needs of jewish students, stack ultimatelity and staff. brandi center head ken marcus said anti-semitism on american campuses is becoming wide spread jowski even before october 7, we saw many extremist anti-zionism groups excluding jews from different programs saying no cy

zionist from our book club or student government. >> one of the groups at uc berkeley requires people to take palestinian 101 if you're a jewish student. other lawsuits name university of pennsylvania, wesley and concern giorgini mellen and cooper union and cornell among other higher institutions of learning. david, it won't be the last. david: it's the status quo and the good news is the curtain is being pulled back and we can now see what's been going on for decades in schools and colleges all around. eric, thank you for that report. harvard saw a 17% drop in early admissions applications this year. less than 8,000 students applied and that is the lowest number in four years. tomi lahren joins me now. tomi, i'm not surprise sod see this, are you? >> no, this is the chickens coming home to roost. you can't be openly coddling and shielding anti-semitism on your campus standing up for your

president who can't distinguish between what is free speech and what is calling for the genocide of a religious group. you can't shield and coddle this and expect students who have decent families and believe in basic decent seizure disorders to go to your institution and they don't feel safe or protected even if it's not a jewish student, why would any student of any faith want to go the to the college campuses where they feel like the rules are the way for some students who maybe have the same ideology as the professors and the administration and for others they're left out in the cold and told to make just avoid certain areas of campus in the unit of america at the most elite universitied and united states and maybe the world, told to avoid certain areas of campus. that can't stand. david: we did see one of the three college presidents resign from her post, university of pennsylvania president, but harvard and mit are still there. it's not just the leaders of the institutions, it's the entire brbureaucracy that's been

supported this mindset and dei communities in these universities and that's the only way to root it out. >> it's going to have to go far deeper than those at the top of the presidents and has to be rooted scout far before institutions of higher learning, this has been going on now, elementary, middle school, high school. this ideology has been implanted into the curriculum and why there's certain ropes trying to take the lead on this and make sure it doesn't happen but has to start there. it can't start when you go to college, because the left, the propaganda machine, they're working at far younger ages and that's where it has to start with combating it there. david: tomi, this topic to inside the beltway tropic jason smith calling out hunter biden and he refused to testify on capitol hill. roll it. >> if you or i or any other american would do that, we would be prosecuted and it's clearly a two-tiered justice system and it's what the irs whistle

blowers highlighted coming forward and the fact that hunter biden was supposed to be in the halls of that building going through a congressional subpoena through depositions and he defy that had by standing on the footsteps of the capitol and doing a press conference. david: even jen psaki, the former spokesperson for the biden white house said he went too far in that defiance. i'm paraphrasing but that's essentially what she said. do you think he gets away from this? >> unfortunately the press seems to point in that direction and it's unfortunate. i think the american people are sick and tired of democrats and bidens setting the rules and for the democrat party that has for years now been talking about how democracy injustice is on the ballot and at stake if donald trump were to be reelected again and then they have season saying i make the rules and the public system and don't want to sit for a closed door testimony as if he

makes the rules. people are watching and that's why our confidence in these institutions are low but that's also why you're seeing the poll numbers for donald trump the way they are because they're clearly going after that man while watching other withs the last name of biden skate on by. david: well, speaking of going after trump, jack smith who's got one of the indictments or actually i think he has two indictments against donald trump, trying to fast track it and some people call it a bum's rush up to the supreme court to jump an appellate court to do that. do you think the supremes will take on this court because clearly what he wants to do is convict donald trump before the election. ironically it's a case of election interference, but isn't that exactly what he's doing by this rush of the case? >> they want ongoing clouds to hang over and not one indictment, two, three, four and they pile on and they want the cloud to hang over him. they see the polls and know donald trump is ahead and only way for them to throw a wrench in the machine saying to the

american voter, maybe he'll be in jail and i don't to want waste my vote and it's manipulative and wrong and genius in some and the american people are smart enough to see through it or at least i hope. david: tomi lahren, great to see you. know you're traveling so have safe travels. >> thank you so much. david: one house democrat think he uncovered the motivation behind the biden impeachment inquiry. lauren, who is it? lauren: a democrat from colorado. he told jen psaki that house republicans are extreme. david: of course. >> i would say it's more rheothrx of the extremism that has metastasized within the republican party. most of the imper criminal day tay i've seen suggests that independent voters do not at the end of the day or rather are not tuning in to this farce of a process that republicans initiated against president biden. lauren: i think impeachment is political. independents but republicans and democrats think the process has

been becaused over the years. trump was in impeached two times. david: that's right. lauren: it is political. david: lauren, thank you very much. check the markets before break and they're in the green and all the markets in the green and dow gain as little and s&p up almost 20. migrant families in new york city facing evictions from the city which he willers and why they're being -- city shelters and why maher being kicked out now. the biden administration pushing for more restrictions on offshore oil and gas drilling. is it too late to reverse course and restore american energy independence? we'll ask climate expert bjorn lomborg coming next. ♪

david: the markets are picking up a little bit of steam on this beginning of the last week before christmas. dow jones up 80 and nasdaq percentage wise up higher than that, 51 ask s&p is a big winner up 21, almost a half a point, a

half is percentage point gain and big tech with the big laggards and microsoft gone green and apple still down but microsoft, amazon, alphabet and meta all in positive territory. 10-year treasury yield up four basis point-blank layupses and up 3.96%, the biden administration moving forward with plans for the most restrictive offshore oil and gas plans in history. grady trimble joining me now. grady, what's in the plan? >> well, basically less offshore oil drilling, david. those on the right have criticized it for going too far in curbing production and those on the left, climate activists, have criticized it for not going far enough. over the next five years, the interior department will hold three auctions of oil drilling right in the gulf of mexico. for reference, a proposal from

the trump administration called for 47 auctions. those in the industry say the biden administration's plan could make us more reliant on foreign oil and could lead to higher prices. >> federal production oil accounts for 20% of oil and gas production and administration said we'll shut down one out of five barrels in the future production. it's going to have drastic economic consequences here, and i don't think people realize how badly this is going to impact them. >> at a political event over the weekend, elon musk called himself an environmentalist saying industries do need to reduce emissions from burning fossil fuels but he also added this: climate change alarm is exaggerated in the short term. we should not demonize oil and gas in the medium term. demonizing oil and gas is what republicans argue president biden is doing with this policy and others, david, at the expense of energy independence.

david. david: grady, thank you very much. copenhagenen consensus president bjorn lomborg is here with us. thank you for being here. earlier on transportation secretary pete buttigieg, we asked him about the decrease in electric vehicle sales this year and customers don't want them. what he had to say about that, roll tape. >> a year ago they couldn't stock them fast enough and now seeing more ups and downs in demand. i don't know a lot of people that think americans in 2050 are still going to be driving that old technology that that combustion technology we inherited from the 20th century. david: bjorn, there's car companies losing hand over foot in the electric division and gas prices come down and why do you think there's been a decrease in sales? >> well, fundamentally because

consumers don't want them all that much. electric cars are good for some things but not for a lot of things if you want to go far and be able to recharge really fastly. that's what you can do at a gas station. for the subpoenas tech tear not knowing a lot of people that think -- transportation secretary not knowing if there's going to be a lot of gas cars around in 2050, he should look at the biden administration's own energy information administration that predicts that only about 20% of all new cars in 2050 are going to be electric unless of course politicians go in and demand otherwise. but that's basically saying we're going to demand people not buying the car they'd rather have had. david: it's all about energy, bjorn. not just about oil, gas and electric and where energy comes from. if you have an electric car, got to get it charged and that electricity comes from something. it's not pulled out of the air and a lot of what it comes from is natural gas and oil right now. i mean, god knows there may be a time we have more nuclear energy

or who knows what we'll find in the meantime. make fusion and right now we need oil and gas to get the energy. >> well, absolutely. look, fundamentally people believe we can somehow magically trial time into a world with no fossil fuels in a short time. this is fantastically costly and two new studies and period studies show the first time what is the cost of actually going to net zero by 2050? that's going to be 27 trillion each and every year throughout the 21st century. compared to benefit of about $4.5 trillion. that's a vast loss. that's a loss of about $1,800,000,000,000,000 over the century. that's almost inthanksgiving

fathomable. un-fat.able. we'll only transition once it's cheap and effective. we need to make much more investment in green energy innovation and bye bye byes cheaper so everyone and not just rich americans and chinese and africans and americans buy this. david: the poorest people suffer the most trying to climb out of overity in the lower middle class and they can't do it on alternate forms of energy right now. >> you're right. in much of africa, they want to develop and do what we did and if you're rich and well off saying i'm going to buy tesla and feel vir which youous and green and not reducing that much. for most poor people, it's all about affordability and again, remember, what really drives the world is affordable and reliable

energy. much comes from fossil fuels and that'll probably still be true n into one of two or three decades from now but surely we should be investing in innovation and not trying to force everyone on green energy, which by the way will make us all poor. david: drives the american dream, what americans care about. take a look at this fox news opportunistic ed by lisa mcclain saying the left started an all-out war on energy and energy independence has been the driving force behind the american dream. bjorn, some of the standards, the impossible standards that this administration has laid out for switching to evs and other forms of alternative energy, they could be killing the american dream right near. >> they're certainly hurting it. i don't know if you can kill the american dream. that's better answered by americans, but unde fundamental, this is going to hamper a lot of

people's ability to have opportunities that are cheap and available and reliable and gives you. again, let's remember the biden administration's own estimate in 2032 is 14% of all new cars sold will be electric. they want to force to be 67%. that's essentially telling about 50% of all consumers. you have to buy another vehicle than the one you'd have liked. that is a severe restriction of your abilities to be happy and do what you want. david: if we don't have choice, we don't have the american dream. bjorn, thank you very much >> like wise. david: climate activist greta thunderstorm abortion is not impresessed. lauren: he's calling it another example of extremely vague and

watered-down texted of loopholes. nothing will satisfy the climate change activists. more than 190 countries agreed to do this. she's not endeering herself to many -- endearing herself to critics and she's protesting for climate change and incorporating free gaza movement in with that. wave ago palestinian flag. what give s? david: i don't know. i don't want to try and get into her head. lauren, leave it with that. coming up, one transgender female athlete made a verbal commitment to take a woman's spot on the university of washington's d1 volleyball team. there are only 12 available spots on that team. macey petty will sound off on that. and the senate delayed holiday recess to get a deal done on the border, but what will it take for democrats and republicans to agree to a plan? we'll bring you the full report from capitol hill coming next. ♪

weave been talking to the white house since september, five days ago they sat at the table and senator langford is doing a good job but the bottom line is we feel like we're dbroxing jammedd and no -- being ja jammed and nowhere close to a deal. reporter: the sticking points are not really over money but policy republicans want major changes to the parol and asylum for illegal immigrants and don't want them to get a free stay in the u.s. while waiting for asylum on claims and want a lot of people that walked into the country to have to go back and wait their turn. senators are working towards a frame work agreement, no one wants to vote for this till they view the legislative text and negotiator chris murphy telling reporters last night "obviously no one is voting on this till they have time to review the text and we're just going to keep working. we're just staying at the fable

every single day we get closer, not further. this is just talk among the senate side". the house would need to vote for this and pass anything that the senate agrees to and that's a whole otherrer bag of pardon mes. david: the deal has to pass in the republican-led house and what's that going to take, lauren? lauren: a bag of worms. the house is on recess for the rest of the year and texas republican tony gonzalez tells cbs the senate deal is on life support and they need to sweeten the deal to get it through their counter parts in the house. watch here. >> the senate will have its battle getting to 60 votes and the house having a battle getting to 218 and we have to sweeten the deal and part of that is getting to the root of the issue. lauren: suggest label the drug

cartels as terrorist organizations and treat them as such. there's a glimmer of hope, the white house send mayorkas to meet with negotiators. independent democrat republican. if you stick them together in one room long enough at some point, they'll get something. david: mayorkas is the lead negotiator for the white house and can't secure the border? lauren: people will vote on this. this is emotional for so many people. david: more so every day. lauren, thousands of migrant families could be kicked out ofishmenters in new york city in the -- of shelters in new york city in the middle of the holiday season. why? lauren: this is for families and had 60 days to find alternate housing and leave the city's migrant shelter system. well, that time limit generally expires right around christmas and a bit after. what the families now have to do is re-apply for the hotel or get sent to tents set up. the timing is sensitive and have the holidays and cold winter

weather, but the numbers are enormous. more than 67,000 migrants are in new york city shelter system. that's costing taxpayers billions and cutting services that taxpayers are used to receiving. david: coming to the most expensive city in the united states and expecting taxpayers to pay for it. lauren: this is the an office to re-patriot you and send you wherever but it's not that busy because look what they're getting david: the market about three quarter positive and maybe two-thirds is a better way to say it. the opportunistic set, ncaa won't protect female athletes of a trans takeover of their sport, ncaa volleyball player macy petty wrote that and she joins me next.

aren't just taking the place of female@ lets but putting them -- female athletes but putting them at risk of career-ending injuries. volleyball can be a dangerous sport. there's spikes that can hurt you. there was a woman player in california, i believe it was, who was hit by a spike by a player who identifies as a female but is a biological man, that woman now can't play anymore because of the injury; right? >> that's exactly right and saw something very similar in north carolina this. is very uncommon for volleyball but when you put men on the court with other female@ lets this can happen. david: have you seen that hop and been playing in a game where a player identifying as a female hurts another player? >> i haven't had to experience the straw ma of having to see a man just, i mean, hurt a female athlete and everyone stand by and watch and let it happen.

i've had to play against a male athlete. thankfully no injuries occurred, but it was in front of college scouts so our scripts were at risk. asker scholarships were at risk. david: there's 12 scholarships at this one university and one of them is going to be going to a transgender athlete? i mean really seems like they're eating into women's sports, these new rules. david: they absolutely are. there's a lot of money in sports, you know that, and these coaches, their jobs are dependent on them winning and if there's no rules from the ncaa there has to be a female that occupies this female scholarship spot and they're going to go out and recruit whoever is going to win and unfortunately because of biological advantages, they're going to go out and recruit men. david: macy, it takes guts to stand up against the status quo. i imagine you're learning that right now, but are you supported by your female teammates? do they mostly agree or what? >> yes, i'm with an organization

called young women for america and they've offered so much support for female athletes and overwhelming support for female athletes for this message, but that can be a very lonely place to be with ruling authorities turning a behind eye to this blatant discrimination and it's been encouraging to see organizations like young women for america that will support and stand up for female athletes. david: what would you like the ncaa to do about all this? what kind of rules would you like to see be put in place? >> well, you know it's quite simple, charlie baker doesn't need me to explain to immigration judges why female athletes need their own spaces. he knows that and has girls that have played in sports. but unfortunately he is championing female athletes, there's no policies in place to ensure that these increased visibility and increase scholarships and increased il opportunities are actually for femaling and i'm asking him to clarify the rules that girl sports are for girls only. david: you've seen what happened

to other women sports figures and riley gains that spoken out as you are. they've received a lot of criticism, sometimes threats, sometimes personal threats. riley gains had a situation where she was held up in a room in order to avoid being god know whats by a bunch of very violent protesters? anything like that happen to you like that? >> taking precautions and for nerve nucleus personally most of the backlash is from people hiding behind screens and just through social media, which i'm very thankful for, but there's usually very good circuit court teams at events making sure we're protect and something i'm very grateful for but in the past, sometimes security teams let ideological barriers stand in the way of protecting speakers on college campuses. david: is this going to be, is this something that will stick

with you even after you're out of women's sports where you're going to stand up for this, unless there's a change in policy? >> you know, i will never stop supporting female athletes. i'm very thankful for the voice that the lord has given me and the convictions he's placed on my heart and so even after i am i out college, you know, college sports transformed my life and gave me so many st stunts and that's something i want to protect for the jeb rations to come. generations to come. david: macy, thank you for being here. best of luck to you. david: now time for the monday trivia question. which of the follow is not the name of one of santa's reindeer, vixso, dasher, dancer, prancer? the answer when we come back?

particular cnn personality with that name. i think they're doing that i think it was blix or. blitzer is the one it is not blitzer. you remember it. >> you have to start me off, dancer prancer, cupid donner blitzen. david: and of course led by rudolph. you're going to be here for christmas question was. >> yes family is local. >> come to new york it's a great place to be for christmas. >> now we have "coast to coast" in two seconds, here you go. >> thank you david it might be called the red sea but the sheer number of companies pulling their ships from the region as energy prices seeing green but is generally not the green most investors like, oil and ga
