♪ simply having a wonderful christmas time. ♪ simply having -- david: i'd never heard that jimmy buffett song. have you, brian? >> not by jimmy buffett. that. david: yeah. it is 11 a.m. on the east coast on black friday, november 2029th.. i'm david asman in for stuart varney. a shortened trading session that ends at 1 p.m. eastern time, the dow is up almost 200 points. s&p, believe, is in record territory, and nasdaq is zooming along, it's up 130 points. zooming close to that 1% mark gain. show me big tech, if we can get through them all there. we have them starting with nvidia. s it is doing nicely todayed the, up 2.3%. apple is up a bit. trading now at $235.83. amazon is up as well, but microsoft and alphabet are down.

let's check the 10-year treasury rate. i believe it's down a bit, down 5.4 basis points. it's come back a little from where it was. now let us listen what podcast star joe rogan said about google censoring his pre-election interview with donald trump. listen. >> they a made it impossible to find the video. and we had to complain. they said it was an accident. and if my concern i might be able to do something by mass complaining about your podcast. like, mass flagging it. >> right. >> like, if i have a bot system and i can get, like, a million people to mass flag your video, maybe it gets put into at category where it's more difficult to find. david: look who he's here -- who's here, brian brenberg joins. good to see you with, brian. he said google really f-ed us. [laughter] of course, he used the whole world. do you think they did? could it have been a mistake? i'm just saying. >> they never answer the

question, so you really don't know, which is why even rogan is speculating about how all this happened. what's so fascinating to the me though, even though it always seems to happen people on the the right, an anti-progressive agenda, it doesn't work anymore. how many views did this thing get? 50 million views? you listened to james carville talking about kamala harris' mistakes. she didn't do rogan. she should have done probegan, right? david: right. >> we live many a world now where you've got things hike, and, voices like elon musk, and they end up being kind of the censor checkers. if youtube's not going to show it but x will show it, you'll realize quickly the world is talking about this. maybe google made a mistake. maybe they tried to suppress it, but they can't hide it anymore because there's too many people calling them on it. david: thank god we have it. by the way, it's fine that the 300,000 european journalists tock their name off of x, they're leaving x.

that shows you i think there's more competition with the truth that you find on x than the journalism that you find from european journalists -- >> how can you be a journalist and leave x and still call yourself a journalist? you're ott not. you're an activist that pretend- david: there's too many news that happen from the people journalists -- >> just to cover news, you've got to be on it. a they'd david a report showing nearly 7 70% of enforcement actions issued by the education department targeted faith-based and career schools under the biden administration. again i ask you, could it just be a coincidence? 70% of all their actions. and this is the ensuring that the federal regulations are enacted, etc., go against faith-based schools. >> i don't think it's an accident because all of these, like, universal college tuition plans, they always exclude private schools, religious schools. because, you know, at really good, true religious schools, they teach you to not worship

ideology, to not worship the government, to not worship progressive, woke pieties, and that's why the bureaucracy hates them, because they're independent sources of independent thoughts for people who don't worship politicians. david: also because of the fact that most of the teachers onnine on. that's the thing that a kills -- >> throw i that on top. a. david: -- just kills them. i should mention my daughter went to four years of catholic high school. most of her fellow students were not catholics. >> yeah. david: they weren't enforcing catholic dogma. >> but these enforcement actions are against colleges here, and those professors aren't unionized, but they're all kind of part of the progressive guild, right? david: absolutely. >> except if for institutions -- i taught at a christian school for 14 years. it always felt like when you had the left in power, doe was looking at you -- the department of education was trying to find a way to not allow you to exercise your faith, to not teach your faith. and it's, it would be so nice if

that thing would just go away and these schools could just to do the mission -- david: it would be nice. and, again, you think of all the billions that have been spent since jimmy carter started this thing 50 years ago, and you see test scores going down. it clearly has not improved the education in the united states. brian is going to be here for the whole hour. >> i'm sticking around. it's going to be fun. david: appreciate it. jonathan hoenig joining me now. jonathan, as always, it's friday, you've got your cot ific stock -- exotic stock pick. korea electric power. i'll tell you why i like it just by reasoning to the outskirts oe outskirts. why specifically do you like this stock? >> it's a new york stock exchange if us of what is working in the market right now, utilities and value stocks. i do think there's a change a9 foot big picture in the stock market. value is outpacing growth. even in the last month, value stocks are up by about 3%, growth stocks only up by 32%. so value's -- 2. kep is in a hot sector, and there's talk of reinstating its

dividend. i always say you want the take the road less followed, that makes all the difference? kep is one to put on your shopping list. david: as we know, a.i. is a thing of the future that sucks up a huge amount of energy. of course, so do all the cryptos, is so energy is the place to be and korea, of course, is right in the a.i. research. they have all these data centers, heir going to use their data centers and farm the stuff out, but they're going to need a lot of energy to do it. so korea power. earlier this month you brought us some other exotic stock picks. let's check back and see how they have performed. obviously, this is only looking at one month. let's start with invesco s&p small cap energy, etf, pcse. how's it doing. >> quite welch it's very much off the radar screen of most investors because they're small caps. but in the last month, the small capp index is up by 10%, large

caps only up by 3%. i think this is a newest -- new era of outperformance. i think this is one you continue to hold and even ad to at these levels. david: i have to bring up some bad news, tsla bear, one-timeshares tsls, not been doing so well, down 30%. >> no. and, david, this is an etf that goes short shares of tesla. tesla is up 30% in just the last month, pretty incredible. the stock is anything but cheap trade at 91 times earnings. i think a lot of it has to do with president trump's reascension to the white house and elon musk's ties there. but honestly, when i looked at tesla sometimes, i think of jeffrey immelt and ge in the early 2000s. a lot of government connections there. didn't work out great in the long haul. the stock is strong, but i wouldn't touch it -- david: we've run out of time, so you're two out of three on the plus side.

that's a good average. jonathan, great to see you. >> happy holidays. david: now this, jamie dimon has reportedly been in talks with donald trump for months. what about, lauren? lauren: policy. charlie gasparino talking about a secret back channel between trump and dimon. trump has been using him as a sounding board for banking regulations, financial policy, tax policy. i think there's mutual r. david: i love that. part of the board, the big board that he's dealing with. next one, lauren, you're taking a look at micro strategy. doing pretty well. lauren: yeah. the bitcoin march to 10 100 -- so -- 100k is back on. shares are up 515% this year, up 3% now. [laughter] bitcoin is up over 100, they're up over 5000%. -- 500%. david: lam research. >> they design and build -- for semiconductor manufacturing.

a report that china a is considering a toned-down saks approach on chips and chip equipment going to china. china accounted for 37% of lam research's revenue. david: good stuff. urban outfitters. a. lauren: the brand is showing signs of a recovery. think anthropology. they raised the price target to 599 from 422. david: wow -- 59 from 432. coming up, president biden is pushing for donald trump to abandon his use of tariffs. not likely, watch. >> i think it's a counterproductive thing to do. last thing we need to do is screw up those relationships. i think we've gotten to a good place. david: guess what? mexico and canada are coming to the negotiating table already, and he's two monthses out of power. is maybe those threats of tariffs are actually working. meanwhile, a newly-uncovered memo showing members of tren de aragua, the gang from venezuela, now have the green light to attack law enforcement.

♪ david: and now this, a newly uncovered memo from the chicago police department, tren de aragua members from venezuelan -- venezuela are were driven the r -- griffin the green light to i attack law enforcement. mike if tobin, tell us about it. >> reporter: we've got more information that this gang is increasing its numbers and, therefore, getting more bold. law enforcement even in sanctuary cities like chicago knows it and knows the gang poses a threat.

this officer safety alert went out to the chicago police over the summer. intel generating the alert appears to have started with immigration and customs enforcement, but it warns officers that members of tren de aragua had been given the green light to to attack law enforcement personnel in denver, colorado. in chicago the officers are urged to use cough and act tactical a awareness -- caution and tactical awareness. america first legal found the alert as part of a dive can they've doing into law enforcement documents. >> this just shows that the level of brazenness that these gang members have in defying law enforcement authorities and chicago police officers definitely need to be careful when they encounter people that, you know, either have visible gang markings or other identifiers that might if link them to this particularly dangerous gang. >> reporter: it was the biden administration that designated tda a transnational criminal gang. the presence of this gang has

popped up in 16 states, notably texas, california, illinois and florida. and some of the information in those documents dug up by america first legal says tren de aragua graffiti has been popping up in the magnificent mile right behind me here. dave? david: mike tobin, thank you very much. ron vitiello joins me now, former acting i.c.e. director. run -- ron, one of the ironies of this is that denver, it was targeted by tren de aragua, and the mayor of denver is the one when wants to protect migrant criminals from i.c.e. so, i mean -- [laughter] it just, it's, you want to laugh at it, but it's deadly serious, no? >> yeah. it sounds like a fake headline like from the onion or babylon bee or something. here's the mayor of town whose citizens are being victimized by this vicious gang, and right across the way in aurora, same thing, and he gets up on television out loud

on camera as the mayor of denver saying that he's going to the stand in the way of the men and women of i.c.e. as they go to deport these vicious criminals, i arrest them safely, deport them, pu on a path for removal, and he wants to compare it to the freedom fighters in tiananmen square. i suggest to him very specifically, he should resign right away and get on a path to being an activist in denver, because he is not serving the men and women of colorado or to oden very or the united states. -- or denver. the consequence of getting in the way of the arrests of illegal gang members in the united states is countrywide. it's not focused on denver, it's not focused on these big cities. we are all at risk from this very vicious gang, and my recommendation also to the trump administration, this gang is very vulnerable to the events of removal. if they're safely arrested and put on a path to deportation, we will decimate their numbers very quickly in the united states because they have no status

here. and, oh, by the way, to do we need another transnational criminal organization in the united states? we've got plenty of ms-13, plenty of mafia and other gangs in the u.s., and so -- david: we've already got them here. frankly, it's too -- a lot of people would think it's too late. they have dug in so so deeply in communities all over the united states. you mentioned, by the way, the colorado apartment takeover. we showed some video of that. some of those people that were involved in that were apparently arrested in a major new york city drug and gun bust. so it just shows you how well spread out this group is and how they work between cities now. that's howdying dug in they are. -- how dug in they are. >> yeah. and if this is very important. i want our viewers to remember that this gang has not had a recorded arrest at the border before 2023. finish this is a symptom of the feckless biden-harris policies at the border that encouraged everyone from the third world

including this vicious gang to come during the presidency of joe biden because they knew they were going to be released into the united states. and every city and town in america, the 16 states that mr. tobin talked about a are all paying the price. but again they're small in numbers in comparison to other organizations, and they're highly vulnerable to being deported because they have no status -- david: well, it couldn't happen soon enough. could not happen soon enough. but the thing that kills me, they're actually being assisted by some of these cities. in new york a couple of tren de aragua members who committed horrible crimes elsewhere were actually flown to those other places where they committed the crime for free. so they have not only a free pass where they're living, where in a lot of these sanctuary city laws hay get free housing, free ford, if then they're -- free food, then they're flown to their city of choice where they

don't have to show any id, by the way. i want to get to something else. texas is reportedly looking to ramp up the migrant buses again, but instead of sending them to sanctuary cities, they're going to send them to i.c.e. centers. i think this makes a lot of sense, don't you? >> i agree. texas is in the fight and has been for the last four years. they've done more than any other entity except maybe border patrol. and so instead of sending migrants to these sanctuary cities, some accord with i.c.e. to the right maces at the right time, detention centers that have room. this is a resource question, are they going to have room for all of the arrests that texas may make at the border? they charge these people with trespassing, awe they to do state time can and then they're released back into state custody to then be transferred to i.c.e. for removal, i think, is a great idea. you've got to commend governor abbott and the men and women on the front line of texas that have been helping my former

colleagues in the border patrol throughout this past four years. david: by the way, i loved tom homan's comment the other day. he said the denver mayor and i think alike. he's ready to go to jail, and i'm ready to send him to jail. [laughter] i mean, you try to go one-on-one with tom homan, and you're gonna lose. i mean, i'm sorry, it's just that simple. you're going to lose now. i think the american people have stood up and said we're with tom homan and what he's trying to do. and, by the way, tom homan is going to be on this show on monday, so you don't want to miss it. ron vitiello, thank you so much for being here. >> it's good to be with you. hope you had a great thanksgiving. david: we did, indeed. same to you. trump is being urged to make a deal with nicholas maduro, head of venezuela. lauren, what would that deal be? lauren: well, "the wall street journal" is reporting of quiet lobbying happening at mar-a-lago by bond 408ers sitting on defaulted nicaraguan debt.

they're telling trump -- can venezuelan debt. they're telling trump, negotiate with him. have him send us more oil and fewer migrants in return. i don't -- trump is the art of the deal. i will say that the incoming secretary of state, marco rubio, would probably oppose that policy. david: yeah. what do you think, brian? >> i think that trump loves when there's uncertainty like this. i mean, the day after -- david: he fills a advantage a yule. >> ma maduro called him and said congratulations because he knows they could throw sanctions on him, that's rubio, or they could to do a deal because or you know what? venezuela needs to keep their people in venezuela -- lauren: and guess what? take back -- david: they don't have the oil. the company's run so badly, the venezuelan oil company, they used to produce 3 million barrels a day? the now only 60000,000 a day -- 6000,000. >> that's true.

i think they're talking about asphalt in this situation. but other thing maduro knows is the u.s. is going to ramp up its own oil production, and that could make venezuela increasingly irrelevant -- lauren: he wants 3 million more u.s. barrels a day. that's true there. david: gang, thank you very much. let's take a look at bitcoin. as lauren says the march to the 100,000 -- whoa. s it's now up to to 9ing ,000. lauren: we'll see. a lot of people are guessing 100k by christmas. we're almost there. david: good luck, folks. coming up, ukraine says russia lost more than 2,000 troops within a span of 24 hours. that would be, if true, the deadliest single day of losses. jennifer griffin will have more from the pentagon coming right up. and elon musk wanting to get rid of the consumer financial protection bureau. it's all a part of his plan to reduce government waste, but is this an agency that needs to go? economist e.j. antoni takes that on coming next.

that many criminals are even more motivated to steal the around the holidays. there are certain crime trends that tend to spike this time of year. >> we're seeing burglars follow people home from the mall, from the store. especially if you drive home from the mall or from the store with lots of packages in your vehicle, they will follow you home and attempt to rob you often right in your driveway. >> reporter: yeah. she says that shoppers need the stay vigilant, especially since the national retail federation predicts americans will spend nearly a trillion dollars on holiday shopping season. the nrf says over 183 million people are planning on shopping this year between thanksgiving and cyber monday. but a lot of those shoppers won't even step foot in a store.

>> black tuesday, black wednesday and everything before. so you're not caught up in it really. >> online. everything is online. >> 100%. >> 1000%. -- 1030 to %. >> you haven't stepped foot in the stores. >> no. it's just too much. >> reporter: and with all the online shopping packages comes the risk of porch pirates. according to capital one, americans lost over $13 billion to to taj thieves just last year concern to package thieves. and experts say most porn thing is reprevention and that burglars hate good locks, lights and cameras. when you are online shopping, be aware of potential scammers. according to norton scam research labs, 50% of online shoppers will be scammed per year, and 30% of them are scammed on black friday. david? david: wow. madison, thank you very much. now listen to what president

biden said about trump's tariff threat to mexico and canada. roll ill -- roll it. >> i hope he he rethinks it. i think it's a counterproductive thing to do. one of the things you've heard me say before, that we, we're -- we have an unusual situation in america. we're surrounded by the pacific ocean, the atlantic ocean and two allies, mexico and canada. if and the last thing we need to do is bin to screw up those -- begin the screw up those relationships. i think we've got them in a good place. david: yes, he said that. e.j. antoni joins us now. a lot of people would say we don't have them in a good place, and what is counterproductive about talks that already seem to have got nibbles on the bait that he threw out? i mean, the fact is that we're talking now to mexico. biden -- excuse me, trump is talking to the mexican leader, he's talking to trudeau. trudeau bent over backwards the say how much he was getting out of these talks.

it seems that he's making progress. >> david, absolutely. i think you're spot on here. and if these things were so counterproductive, then why has the biden administration spent the last four years allowing many of those trump tariffs to simply remain in place? they could have taken them off x they haven't probably because they're working. and the threat of additional tariffs is already bearing fruit, as you pointed out. we already have mexico and canada bending the knee, for example. look, what president trump understands is that you can weaponize the purchasing power of the american consumer in order to get a better deal for america. this is just america first, pure and simple, and it's working. david: e.j., besides, of course, tariffs are very important in getting immigration under some kind of control which it hasn't been for four years. it's one of the reasons trump was elected. but also extending the tax cuts that he put in power back in 2017 are, is such an important agenda.

and adding on to it, those to no taxes for tips, no taxes for overtime pay, lowering the corporate rate to 15% for companies that manufacture here, so important. but a lot of people are saying, no, you can't do that. the folks inside the beltway are wringing their hands. meanwhile, look what happened when he lowered corporate tax rates. our revenues have surged 9 1%. it didn't cost anything to lower the tax, corporate tax. it gained 91%. of course, some of that was because of inflation, but 9 1% is a lot more than just inflation. >> that's exactly right, david. even if you -- let's look at other periods in history, for example. let's get rid of the whole inflation component here. we saw the exact same thing under harding and coolidge. we saw it under jfk. we saw it under reagan. we saw it during the first trump administration when there was virtually no inflation. every time you cut these tax rates you end up getting an

increase in tax revenue, and the reason for that is because we are way above what we would call the optimal rate for taxation. s this is just the laffer curve, and we're seeing it play out in realtime. david: last one, e.j. e.j. elon musk wants to abolish the consumer financial protection bureau started, of course, by liz warren. he says there are too many due publictive regulatory agencies. is this the kind of agency that should be dumped? >> oh, 100%. on day one. you know, this was an institution that was effectively started by quasi-marxists, and the name is completely misleading. it does not protect consumers. but i will say there's a really interesting component here, david, and it's this: this is not an institution that gets its funding through the normal congressional appropriation process. it actually a takes its income from profits at the fed, but the fed hasn't run a profit in quite some time now. in well over a year and a half. and so we're at a point now

where you might be able to actually shut off funding to the cfpb instantly because the fed, again, hasn't turned a profit, it has no remittances to hand over to the treasury. david: it's unbelievable. e.j. antoni, great to see you, my friend. thank you very much. brian, i want to to bring you back n. as e.j. just pointed out, it's not an organization within the government that has to give in to congressional inquiries and stuff. they're completely on their own. they actually set their own salaries, these people. >> yeah. david: how can we allow that to happen? >> it is the stupidest structure in government. they should end -- whatever doge does, they should end this immediately because it doesn't help consumers. it totally is unaccountable. it's a great example of everything that went wrong with the bureaucratic state in america. it's the tip of the iceberg started by elizabeth warrenment get rid of this thing. consumers will be better off x we'll have this unconstitutional, terrible bureaucracy gone. david: yeah.

ukraine especially for russian troops. the biden administration is urging president zelenskyy, however, privately to lower the draft age from 25 to 18, warning the number of troops is. currently a too small to repel the russian ground force. ukraine lowered the draft age from 27 to 25 in april but remains short at least 1600,000 troops. 1600,000. russian troops are gaining ground inside ukraine. overnight ukraine carried out an audacious strike inside russia hitting the atlas oil storage depot inside russia. three oil tanks were still on fire as of this morning. the billowing smoke filling the sky. ukraine's defense forces used drones to carry out the strike. they also destroyed a russian m3 air a defense system being used by the russians. another bleak milestone today with russian troop losses in

ukraine topping more than 2,000 the casualties in one day. surpassing the previous record on november 12th in which russia lost 1,950 soldiers, bringing its total losses in terms of deaths and catastrophic injuries to over 730,000 russians since the invasion began two behalf years ago. in response to putin's expanding threats, germany is preparing a list of public and private buildings that could be converted into bunkers if necessary, and france is not ruling out the possibility of deploying troops to ukraine. the russian ruble tumbled to it lowest level in two years this week as a tough new sanctions package closes one of the last conduit9 of hard currency to moscow. low oil prices are straining the russian economy with interest rates in russia currently at 32 the 11th. and russia's central -- 221% -- 21%. meanwhile, russia's defense minister arrived in north korea

opportunity to try to stave off a conflict. i mean, recently the indictment was just released where an irgc officer had recruited two folks in new york with attempting to assassinate aty dent and go -- dissident and go after president trump himself. and they've been transferring arms to militants in syria and lebanon, firing into israel. and iraqi leaders i've spoken to are worried about iran filling the slam yule there. david: you're a negotiator. the abraham accords, people like john kerry said it would never happen. israel and arab states making a deal without the plo or hamas in the middle. will saudi arabia, in the second trump term, come into the abraham accords? >> i think it largely depends on where the -- whether the israelis will publicly state they're support a two-state solution. the prospect of a saudi deal was

as high as 50% at one point. i think they're looking for a security pact in order to stave off tensions with iran, so it depends on what israel can do there. david alex, thank you for your work. the country's grateful. we'll have much more "jarny" right after this -- varney" after after this, stay with us. since 2019, john deere has invested more than $2 billion in our american factories. .. in more than 60 u.s. based facilities, across 16 states, we couldn't be more proud to play our part in supporting americans who work the land and build a better tomorrow. ♪ nothing runs like a deere™.
