impairs the world leader that everyone wants to meet, macron gives him a greeting to get on his good side. trump got the upper hand of the handshake contest if that's important. ukraine zelenskyy meets him, trump will decide ukraine's future, he's confident immediate cease-fire, much as being made with the first lady, believe it or not trump is using the meeting to sell his new fragrance. get ready for all kind of surprises with this presidency. meanwhile asad is out in syria, another blow to iran and russia per the political map of the east has been rewritten in trump is going to call the shots, he said we should stay out of syria it is not our fight, he wants the hostages released before the inauguration all eyes on trump before he takes the oval office. on sunday he appeared on nbc and laid out what is going to do with this president and the first 100 days, he's going to do something for the dreamers, the migrants brought here years ago as children is in all the branch

and is not going to fire jay powell, that's reassuring to wall street coming back would appoint a special prosecutor investigator joe biden it will be his retribution. trump assumed the role of president and biden played the spoiler our military is striking targets in syria even though trump says we should stay out. biden set another billion dollars worth of weapons to ukraine just as trump calls for an immediate cease-fire, these are minor distractions, trump is driving the train he is the one telling the world where america is going the biden era is over. the second hour of "varney" just getting started. ♪. stuart: am i going too far, here i am saying the biden era is over, my guess frequent guest jason chaffetz is smiling and this, do you think i'm going too

far. >> it was over a long time ago the american people wanted it to be over a long time ago. our country in the world is starving for leadership, donald trump fills the void and offers clarity that's what the world needs, no ambiguity with president trump he knew exactly where the united states stands, that's why our enemies fear us and our allies love us that's what you have the president trump on the world stage taking command in the mantle acting like the world superpower is only the united states can do. stuart: take a look at president biden in the first lady, they ignored a beaming kamala harris at the kennedy center honors this weekend she imported enthusiastically as they entered but they did not even look at her. axios report to president biden has set a low point without democrats, they blame him for losing the election and said the hunter pardon set him over the

edge. the democrats are really down in the dumps are day. >> the president vice president don't shake hands and they don't look at each other was an awkward cold mama at the kennedy award democrats don't policy there lost in the wilderness and until they come up with new ideas that the american people like they're going to gravitate to the same old tropes it doesn't work in a thinker could continue to flail as donald trump and the republicans take the mantle and make america great again, they can say they're opposed to that but america is obviously not buying it. stuart: trump will get his way most of his appointees are going to get through. >> i tend to think that all of his appointments will get through because i just don't think there is enough momentum to say this person is wrong. and the more that you look at the kash patel you start to realize he is a resume, he knows what he's talking about he

looked better and better as you go to the process. that's going to happen with each of the nominees and he will eventually get all of them, the vote is not until later in january. they have a lot of time to go. >> it's great to be in politics isn't it. >> it's great every year. stay there with our. now this outgoing dnc chair, jamie harrison pushing back against calls for democrats to abandon identity politics. he wants to keep identity politics. >> he is mad the parties trying to figure out how to kamala harris lou's end is whether the reasons because they're too attached to identity politics, harrison told the dnc state chairs that shape into they should be attached to identity politics when i wake up in the morning and i wake up in the mirror and step out the door i cannot rub this off, this is who i am this is how the world perceives me, that is my identity and not politics. it is my life. the people that i needed the

party that i need to stand up for me have to recognize that. you cannot run away from that. his term ends. >> that is nuts. republicans have stood for equality, treat everybody the same regardless of their skim public, did he miss that decades ago and republicans actually acting like that and they can continue to say i walked out the door in the world perceives me as something negative and that is not true i feel bad for the guy that he feels like that. that is not the way the republicans in the overwhelming majority of americans feel and don't judge a person by the color of their skin. stuart: you got that right. thank you very much. check the market we have a little bit of green for the dow, little bit of bread for the s&p and the nasdaq. not that much price change. check out the crypto, bitcoin coming in at 99 in change, it

was 100 moments ago, ethereum 3920, jeff sica joins us. bitcoin success, you think it's going to move ethereum to new highs. >> bitcoin is the star of the show is like mick jagger and ethereum is like keith richards. and i think we will see a move and ethereum, when i first started recommending bitcoin on the show in 2019 and i said the institutions embrace it the floodgates would be open, now in july we had eight ethereum spot etf's approved, when you look at that it means $40 trillion that are held in retirement account that could not by ethereum or bitcoin for that matter have eight options to buy spot ethereum. it is not the store value

necessarily that bitcoin is they call bitcoin a digital gold in their calling ethereum digital silver and i think it's going to coattail bitcoin ever get to see you double the sheer. a double in 2025. at the moment ethereum is a 26 most valuable asset. >> if you look at the inflow into etf last week there was $850 billion, million dollars that came in to the ethereum etf, bitcoin is getting all the attention but ethereum is in the back draft and we will see the move up from here. stuart: we got you on tape. thank you very much for joining us we will see you soon. lauren is back looking at the movers, we have advanced micro devices down 3%. >> bank of america cut them to neutral, down from 180, higher

world is on fire right now it inaugurates a day cannot come soon enough for president trump. i think you are already seeing world leaders take a step back on there is a new sheriff in town and we need to act differently. >> at one point when talking about the war in ukraine they tried lateral meeting with ukrainian president zelenskyy. over the weekend president trump told nbc news they can expect the state from the u.s. president trump also sees russia as a weakened state adding the peace agreement can be reached, the president-elect plans to use the u.s. economy to level the trade playing field across the board as well stop illegal migration and drugs. >> tariffs are properly used and powerful tool, not only economically forgetting other things outside of economics. >> president-elect trump has a plan in a clear vision which is

whether it delivers or not we will see. there is another thing that has changed, france is doing really badly and europe is not doing great at all they would not have a leg to stand on when it comes to actually looking down on him. >> because they need him, what you make of the friendly encounter between the first lady jill biden and president-elect donald trump, seems a friendly meeting even though she said terrible things during the campaign. >> that's what politicians do and now senator rubio in the bessie's and if someone had said the things he said about me maybe i wouldn't be like this. but that seems to habitability to forgive and i don't know that

morning we have read in the nasdaq is down 34. look at nvidia, it is down after china accused the company of breaching antitrust rules, tell me more. >> this is a major escalation of the chip pours, nvidia is the face of the a.i. tech razzle under revolution that the tech owns, china's launching investigation into nvidia over suspicion that it violated antimonopoly laws chinese state media says beijing is looking into whether nvidia's purchase of israeli networking hardware network and violate antimonopoly's but they did not say how, the $6.9 billion deal close 4.6 years ago after the chinese regulators signed off on it. last week the biden administration implemented the third round of restrictions on high tech chip sales to china and three years as both nations are buying for a.i. dominance dean is essential for national security. nvidia sources most of its chips

and taiwan, china used taiwan as its own and aggressively ramping up its own chip fabs 21 new ones are being built in china according to gina raimondo commerce secretary. it's worth noting bloomberg is reporting that nvidia is under antitrust scrutiny right here in the u.s. >> the very successful. >> you have china going after them and other people to leave our powerhouse alone. i'm sure trump will, this is not the biden administration is a trump administration coming in. he doesn't necessarily think that everything big is bad he does not think that way. >> especially when you're looking at national security and a.i. dominance this is the fourth revolution for the technology revolution. >> we want to run it. >> we made our point. stuart: thank you warren. listen to what donald trump said about importing families with

mixed immigration status, watch this. >> i don't want to break up families. the only way you don't break up the family as you keep them together and you have to send them all back. we have to do our job and have a series of standards in a series of laws and in the end our country is a mess. chris cabrera joins us a national border patrol council vice president. how do you see breaking up families are making them all leave if one or two is undocumented, that's good to be seen as a little harsh. >> i don't think the intent is to make anybody leave what always happens and was always the case is apparent is the anchor not the child and if the parent is here illegally, the parent goes back to the home country in the child fall is apparent, that's how it's always been in as long as i've been a border patrol probably longer that's the protocol it is nothing new it just hasn't been

done we put policy above law for the last four years. it is something new that shouldn't be. stuart: i think it's going to get a lot of opposition from the democrats it's going to give them a talking point, you're breaking families up and forcing people out, they should not be forced out. it's going to give them a talking point. >> is going to give them a talking point and democrats are good on anything they think they can use and to use as a talking point. and to see if they can make sense of it. the basel law and a lot of people in congress complained about the laws but they do nothing to change them. if they don't like something they need to get to work and corrected if not they need to stand back and let us do our j job. stuart: trump wants to work with democrats to get a deal done for the dreamers. watch this. >> we have to do something about the dreamers, these are people

that have been brought here at a young age and many of these are middle-aged people. they don't speak the language of the country. >> i will work with the democrats on a plan and if we can come up with a plan but the democrats made a very, very difficult to do anything, republicans are very open to the dreamers they have great jobs and in some cases they have small businesses some cases large business. >> you want them to stay. >> i want to work something out. >> that sounds like in all the branch to me, he would do something about the dreamer so they can stay, surely the democrats will work with him on that. >> you would think so when you would hope so but i know some years back president trump offered the dreamers status in exchange for the wall and the democrats turn that down and they cover their senses and we can make progress in right now to divided on capitol hill and we need to come together and do what's best for this country. stuart: listen to what the incoming borders czar here's

what he said about trump's mass deportation plan. >> this is going to be huge operation i'm looking forward to it started i have not started operation but i worked with texas governor on the planet texas border czar and i worked with mayor adams and hundreds of shares the other day the national shares association ready to go to work with us, january 20, game on. stuart: i'm not sure the mass deportation starts january the 20th, let's be clear were starting on the criminal migrants, is that correct. >> that is correct, tom homan i think is the right guy for the job obviously nothing is going to start right on the first day but that's when we get the ball rolling and obviously you talk about mass deportation in your criminal aliens we will have mass deportation if were able to deport criminal aliens, there's a lot of criminal aliens that shouldn't be that a be the first

step in getting it done. i think mr. homan is the right man for the job. stuart: thank you for joining us, we appreciate it and we will see you soon. jason chaffetz, let's talk mass deportation, you're talking about 8 million people out of this country. is that even feasible. >> you better be that's what the president promised in the american people wanted to. you gotta start with the criminal aliens and we will identify those people and you will start deporting them, no longer catch and release under donald trump that will make a fundamental difference if you could abort him to build the border wall and if you get to tame by the border patrol you are not good to be released out into this country those are all positive signs and it will slow down the migration right now they have been given an incentive to get here get all the free healthcare and free education we will give you phone and money that all goes away with donald trump and that's what donald trump has a mandate to do. >> a huge operation.

this is the united states of america, the shares in the states like texas they are going to strap it on and they will work together with 287g program and are going to make it happen, they are force multipliers after en masse and we have to go after the sanctuary cities and the century states and if you cut off their funding they will come around pretty quick. >> a tough guy. thank you for joining us. stay there. i have more, we are a week into the hunt for the united healthcare ceo killer we have the latest on what is become a multistate search, trump says tiktok helped him engage young voters. >> tiktok is very successfully and by campaign i one youth by 30% all republicans use youth. will trump uphold the tiktok ban or not will ask the national spokeswoman elizabeth picard

russia and soft with vladimir putin, democratic congresswoman debby wasserman shows as far as calling her a russian asset though the top democrat on the house intel committee disagrees jim heim saying there's no reason to believe that, the top republican is interesting that he is not, really publicly supportive of gabbard. >> obviously different in a great deal in a number of areas with her judgment and her background and experience. what i do trust in the senate process and the senators are going to put her for a process. >> trump's picked to have the fbi kash patel will also be on the hill, he's already here, he's meeting with a couple of different senators including senator cornyn and earns, pete hegseth is back on the hill as well as reports last week that

he might be getting swapped out for the job in the trump transition with a second meeting with senator joni ernst today later this afternoon, she's facing maga bash lot under backlash for not selecting him even though lloyd austin. take a look at this post, joni ernst wrote this, at a minimum he deserves to buy out his vision for our work fires at a hearing and now on sunday trump himself came out and told nbc his thoughts confident in pete hegseth and he's dismissing these reports that he might have a drinking problem, that's not what he's been told. back to you. stuart: now this, donald trump laid out his plans for his first 100 days in office. it's a long list. >> we're going to do something with the border very strong and powerful that will be the first signal and the first signal to america that were not playing games, we have people coming in

american hostages are held in gaza or not we have to see what world leaders are doing when it comes to russia in the ukraine is about the president trump will have to deal with. he laid out the main issues as to the american people voted on border security and the economy that's going to be a number one priority for sure. >> tiktok wants an emergency injunction to block the law level for said sale, that's what trump had to say. >> very successfully in you is very effective obviously because i one youth by 30%. all republicans lose youth, all they said they can't have chinese companies and they have the right to ban if you can prove it to chinese companies own it. >> are you to protect tiktok winter in office. >> i want to make sure other companies to become a bigger monopoly. stuart: elizabeth, take us forward what do you think is the endgame what do you think is going to happen to tiktok.

>> it is interesting you and i spoke about this a few times everyone i know my age or younger is very curious about what's going to happen in the supreme court with another buyer for tiktok obviously the fact is donald trump has made this point very clear and they should remain in everybody wants to work on and make sure the people are safe we know it's a national security issue in a mental health issue for a lot of people especially folks under 18 he is surrounded by elon musk, now zuckerberg that want to help work on this, it's fascinating because we know where he stands in a few of the cabinet picks that he put forward will certainly be confirmed, the actually have on a different side of the aisle and said in the past they do believe tiktok should be banned. it'll be interesting to see what happens but we never president trump stance on censorship and will be interesting to see what puts forward on the app that has become a phenomenon it did not exist a few years ago when i was growing up. stuart: thank you for joining us.
