carnivore at the top and does that include nvidia? >> really does. the trend is the trend and the market but the trend in spend sergeant your friend now because if you're looking through a window of transparency on what to invest in, there's $2 trillion of cap x being spent and a lot being in the direction of nvidia's way. writing is on the wall and owning nvidia and buying the dips on these mag 5 stocks. this is a crystal -- a great opportunity and crystal clear opportunity for folks to buy the stocks. liz: here comes the closing bell, folks. the nasdaq, russell and dow going for that and we'll be right here tomorrow and going to have the laptop by learf lenovo.

larry: hello, folks, welcome to kudlow. i'm larry kudlow. wild fires raging in california but then again mr. trump goes to washington. we're going to talk about it in a moment with congressman wesley hunt, plus we have senators mike krapo and steve danes in the show and saying he sees a trump boom to close out the decade. how about that? going for california and wild fires and max, rough story, what do you have? reporter: absolutely, larry. five wild fires are burning uncontrolled across southern california and we are standing in the aftermath of the palisades fire. you can see how it's destroyed this mobile home park. currently this fire destroyed 11,800 acres to the east of us, the eaton fire killed two people and it's burned 10,600 acres and

these fires have been fed by strong santa ana winds and in one case, one gust was measured at 100 miles per hour and gusts of up to 60 miles per hour expected through tomorrow and this fire fight. larry: tune into fox business from 4 to 6:00 a.m. and live coverage from the california wild fires and our entire team over at fox weather. we thank them for that. up next here fox news peter doocy. he's live in west palm beach, florida. what's cooking.

reporter: either greenland or panama canal. >> andrew johnson trying to buy alaska and end of world war ii, president truman going to buy greenland then and it's an older idea that's come around. reporter: they're drafting legislation to change the name of gulf of mexico to the gulf of america this. is important to begin funding the changing of maps for all agencies within the federal government like the faa and military. do not expect any democratic

support there though. house democrats believe that we are not sent to washington to invade green land and rename the gulf of mexico and seize the panama canal by force. we were sent to washington to lower the high cost of living in the united states of america. >> president elect trump will be talking about all of this with the republicans whose votes he will need starting in 12 days. capitol hill in the next two hours, larry. larry: by the way, peter, you know, in world war ii the united states occupied green land and the gnat seizure disorderses fromming -- natzis from occupying green land and going to see it. peter doocy, west palm beach,

florida. reporter: china and russian influence going to start the conversation with democrats. look, do you have a better idea to protect american interests from china and russia? let's hear it. larry: 100%. that's exactly right. peter doocy, thank you very much, sir. appreciate it like always. trump needs one big beautiful coalition to pass the one big beautiful bill and that's the subject of the rift. hanging tough to live with one big beautiful bill and meeting tonight with the republican senators in washington. one overlooked thing is the house republicans and any significant piece of legislation require ascolegislative session and >> we're all in line with a

lot of different opinions and dynamic tricks from home and we will. i think if you put all the measure into one packaging for the increase and breaking probability and going to achieve the possibility and focus on them and third, those that insist for pay going and increasing and fourth is the heavy duty defense hawks and first of all, i'm in favor of all four. all of it no problem. not everybody in the house gop conference is in favor of all

four. one speaker mike johnson saying that the one bill strategy is the only way to cobble together all these different interests. it's important to know by the way that the pay go budget cutters are going to play a very important role in deliberations whether it's one bill or the next ten bills or the next 50 bills, and they are right. there's been a flagrant disregard for budget overspending if both political party and june party deficit and stuff has to stop. that said the lame tax cuts delaying the blue collar boom and it'll be able to disappoint president trump's new republican working class coalition. hurt the republicans in the 2026 midterms and the tax cut work is

to extend mr. trump's first term tax cuts and not care blizzard warnings complicated and that's the 15% tax rut and cash tips and all important economic growth and hired about it and tax cuts and deregulation and more energy production. and all those supply side policies will help bidenflation. contrary and contrary he's indeed looking at broad based universal tariff and could pay for plenty of tax cuts and then some. think about this again. the u.s. imports about

$5 trillion per year and 10% of that is 50 billion. that's goi to buy a lot of tax cuts and other priorities as well. beside the need for coalition thinking people should be thinking about the tariff potential to finance these tax cuts. believe me, folks, it's never far from president trump's mind. and that is the riff for tonight. > thank you, larry. larry: i want to go back to peter doocy's report on con trojacontroversy and this is greenland and panama can. these are american national security and economic security interests. they are vital interests, are

they not? and mr. tram subpoena addressing them in a fourth right way to show what we gave up in the biden years and we're going to get that footprint back and then some. >> 560 americans died building that panama canal and the idea of us having to pay the chinese to use our own vessels to go through the panama canal is ridiculous. president trump is absolutely spot on. regarding greenland, look, if i'm a greenland citizen i'd love to be under the banner of the greatest country in the world. it's a strategic for us given the relations we're dealing with russia and countries and adversaries and by the way, naming the gulf of mexico, the gulf of america again as american, that's one hell of an idea. why is that? the cost that we get and the

money that is spent in that region primarily is spun because of the united states this. is about putting america first and going back to policies that benefit the average taxpayer and every day americans. why not call it those things and we're the beficiary and we're the ones that are investing the most in the world in those regions and in the areas and nobody is talking about just taking this land from people and annexing them. we're lking about paying for it. if we pay for it though, wow, imagine that. a return on our investment by investing in the panama canal and investing in greenland and making gulf of mexico the gulf of america. all what i think are great policies in general. larra rhode islander these are core u.s. interests. core american interests. these are not far flung widespread other side of the world interests. these are right here. core interests and these are monroe doctrine interests and

trump doctrine and china infiltrating latin america and central america and south america and panama canal and these are china and russia, nosing around greenland and arctic for naval bases and air force bases and whatnot. these are core american interests and these are vital security. can i ask you a question, getting to frustrated and i covered this for so many years and why would democrats, there was a time when the democratic party had national security experts like a sam nun or others going back and knee jerk and hakeem jeffreys and i don't even know the man. trump knows things that make eminent sense and take it seriously and what is wrong with that, wesley hunt. >> it's going to be an ideology as a whole. these people are lighting

hundreds of billions of tax paying dollars as the ukraine and president trump talking about this is an roi, the idea of us is investing going for large turn and going with taxes for them on the money and and energy and giving it away like i've been doing for decades and it's a purpose and helps out with our strategic global purposes and going to put boots on the ground elsewhere and i'm a war fighter and sons and daughters fighting a war when we can control the global markets by taking over areas -- not taking over but investing in areas that quite frankly benefit all of us collectively. larry: the doctrine was very important to keep at there's no

common sense whatsoever in the democratic party. let's move on. we need a coalition of people to get one big beautiful bills and speaker mike johnson said today and the republicans in the house are great people and diverse and interests and only way to get them together is in one big bill i would think. if it happens before june, we need to focus on what's in the bill and it'll benefit the american people and i get co-sought up on rather or not

it's one or two. gettings tax cuts and i i want to avoid vrs and personally make sure we have some kind of debt ceiling moving forward and keep spending reigned in and going to be two bills and it's about what comes out of it and larry: it's about growth and closing the boarder and gasoline and better energy prices and all that growth and ending biden inflation and bidenomics. thank you, wesley hunt. thank you for being on. >> coming up on kudlow, one big beautiful coalition for one big beautiful reconciliation bill. now, the question is will the

senate gop get on board? so we'll ask one big senate finance committee mike krapo next up. remember catch kudlow monday through friday at 4:00 p.m. here on fabulous fox business. for some reason can't get to us, text your favorite 9-year-old and she will show you how to dvr the show and you'll never miss one, best of my recollections beautiful bill. i'm kudlow.

into one package, it increases a great probability of us achieving all the objectives and that's why we've been focused on one bill strategy. larry: all right, that was mike johnson and i'm joined by senator mike cray ports of entry. happy new year, sherif gross-bullock. welcome back to the show. appreciate it as always. what he's saying is one big vehicle and the senate is saying if that's what the house wants, will senate buck him on that?

>> no, i don't think s larry. as i've said, i'm ready to go either direction and appears that the house is going to go with a one bill pramila and we're ready to work to make that happen. the key here is to do what i've talked about earlier on your show, and that is to make the tax changes permanent. instead of a $4.3 trillion tax hike, most of which hits people in lower income and middle income categories, we need to have a permanent tax code so that we can have reliability. the tax foundation indicates that if we're to extend this current tcja and permanently larry: let's go back to the revenue point and that's so important. i want to get to your current, your current policies baseline, which is one of the reasons we love having you on. people do not appreciate your point of view. first of all, the cbo and joint

tax committee are always wrong and 2017 tax cut and not only paid for themselves and they unfortunately paid for a lot of other things and they had a few things. why is this the way the cbo does it. >> every american having every common sense understands that and changing the tax code and extending current policy and you are not increasing the deficit. bottom line is 3 trillion tax increase not a 4.3 trillion deficit increase. you've indicated it. we grow the chips act and we say people -- economy and tax increases that hurt them terribly and we give perm nancy to the tax code -- perm seizure disorders to the tax --

permanente to the tax code and congressionally larry: if tax cuts come in and they go on forever and it's hard for deficit raisers and it's like the whole system is geared for government to take your money rather than for you to keep more of what you earn. >> that's exactly right and not being fooled by this and if we had a $4.3 trillion tax increase, congress would use to spend on new spending. that's a tax and spend philosophy and you indicated that about $2.5 trillion of the spending is under current policy baseline. that's intended to protect the spending so it goes on

perpetually but the taxes don't get the same kind of treatment and i think americans can see through this. larry: one last one, senator. if mr. trump goes for a universal tariff of 10%, which is europeans have had about a 20% bet and 10% tariff ring around the call of tariffs. in static terms, i don't know how long this would last but $5 trillion worth of imports at 10% tariffs would come to $500 billion worth of revenues. those are inexact estimates i know. but there is a good deal of truth in arkansas and if mr. trump puts on that kind of tariff and uses that for negotiating or whatever, you'll raise a lot of money to help finance a lot of different things and finance defense and help finance the wall and help finance more ice agents for deportation and what do you think of that?

>> there's a strong case president trump is making and they can do this well. he did it well the first term. he had serious successes in his tariffs on china and on france and on canada that have positive results in our trade relations with them that were beneficial overall and you see that kind of result of tariff policy and you're right, done well it can help our economy and grow our economy just as these tax cuts will. larry: that's exactly right. senator mike crapo, thank you. i think you're the smartest guy in the senate. that's all. we appreciate you coming on. next up on kudlow, joe biden is doing everything he can to spite trump on his way out and the

whole democratic party is so knee jerk negative on everything in this country right now. you know what, they're burying themselves and you know what, if that's the case, they're going to deserve it. that's all i can say. anyway, we've got joe concha and rich lowry to weigh in here onset with me. remember, folks, kudlow available as a podcast. episodes every weekday right after the show on spotify and apple and fox business podcasts. democrats negative, bury them. ♪ [city noise] investment opportunities are everywhere you turn. do you charge forward? freeze in your tracks?

larry: i'm so tired of democrats picking up on that and all they can do is say no, no, no. joe biden's last days and just despite trump, he's done some of

the wackiest things i've ever seen and talk about this with rich lowry and going for the national review and joe concha going for the fox news contributor and author of the greatest comeback ever and that's in short form. >> that's a big campaign. larry: that's what i'm looking for. never mind. i'm just going to tell you, democrats are pathetic. he has to shut down all drilling around the world for heaven's sakes and he can't even give you a decent showers and cutting down the electricity flow and that's just watching today and what really sparked this and trump is basically arguing for a return to the monroe doctrine to protect american interest in this hemisphere and greenland up there is going to be part of the hemisphere and security and they can go on and attack and attack and attack. they're negative and have nothing to offer and they are

defeatists and i think that's why the public can't stand democrats right now. there, i said it. >> they're defeatists and defeated and for ten years straight, they've mocked donald trump and it's been the reaction to everything and initially came down the escalator to the press conference yesterday and guess who's going to be president of the united states twice? donald trump. he has taken the center from a party that moves radically left and told us this ridiculous lie and man that's shuffling off the stage in the sad final hours of the presidency could be president for the next four years. it's ridiculous. larry: i can read this with no drilling in atlantic and pacific and all the final episodes and the organization of lawfare against trump and larry: hillary clinton was secretary of state

and had to live with bill clinton and going for fill anthropoy and going -- philanthropy and it's nonsense and it's crap. it's not even serious and it's nonsense. >> you are pissed off. that's a word you used in the break and i'll use it and take the heat on this. dozens of inmates on death row and giving a presidential medal of freedom. not to barack obama because obama gave one to biden on the way out and it was his rolex and retirement. he snubbed obama but gave one to a monster like george soros with blood on his hands for the das and riots and everything else. i spoke to trump about this interview for the book you just mentioned, he's really not happy with the fact that joe biden is selling off border wall palates and pennys on the dollar and trump said you're only doing that to harp the customs and

country andwhat other motivatiod millions of offshore drilling and that's millions. what did hakeem jeffries say by the way? >> he was sent to washington and lowering the cost of food. >> inflation reduction act and you signed off on that. larry: it's after the worst inflation in four years and going for the post election spending and even newspapers that hate him are giving him good relatively decent coverage, okay. he's talking about serious issues, okay. and people want to talk about taxes and they want to talk about the panama canal and defense and why china is invading the hemisphere and that kind of thing. democrats have nothing to say

and nothing to add to this conversation. they are killing themselves and they are getting off to the worst new year's start imaginable it seems to me. >> donald trump being talking about the hostages being held in gaza and interrupts the envoy kaying they better come back or there'll be hell to pay. joe biden could never say that with the horror against our own people and trump won and i expect rapid success on the boarder and on energy. larry: do you think that the democrats will continue with their policy, the cultural policies of woke? do you think they're going to continue to push? i'm serious about this. biological men competing in women sports for example. dei for example. all the big liberal companies. i got one for you, zuckerberg is

now getting rid of the score card for fab, okay. how about that -- facebook, okay. we have a chart that shows i'm gone ma spend more time and almost forgot to raise it and put up the chart here. zuckerberg and listen, the red and influencers on the websites and media exchanges and look how he's changed and facebook more conservative and going to work and all more conservative now and this is a remarkable change and even zuckerbucks is moving ahead of the democrats. >> yeah, he run as business and political winds are changing and those were his exact words and trump's not in office yet big things are happening; right. that's what he's really speaking to and facebook is getting content moderators and california woke and but now he's

going to adopt this as elon musk effect going for them and going to fact check them down to one liberal person and i need this to be x or y. to answer your question, democrats are so obtuse right now and not going against laken riley act and you're taking the side of murders and more. larry: incredible. incredible. >> they're going to go down that road, except if you're john fetterman, who's the voice of reason for the party. larry: dana white, ufc, he's on the border. i'm saying he will badly kneecap zuckerberg if zuckerberg goes against this new one. >> obviously policy consequences and this election going for them and it's downstream cultural concepts and going to have the trump victory and going to much

of america and larry: happy new year, steve danes. senator, you helped engineer the democrat defeat and republican takeover of the senate. what do you expect president trump goes to washington. he's going to meet with the senate republicans. you heard, i think, michael jacobson speaker mike johnson say he needs a one bill strategy because of the need for a republican coalition in the house. what do you make of that, senator danes? >> well, look, we're just about an hour and 15 minutes from meeting with the president. larry, never been a more influential lyddane america than president trump. he's 12 days away from being sworn in and he's the de facto president of the jung as we speak. beyond that, he's the most powerful influential leader in

the world. and he's coming up to capitol hill to meet with us in about an hour. that shows you the kind of leadership he demonstrates and why he's wasting no time because the american people are expecting results. he's actively engaged and hands are dirty working with house members and working with u.s. senate and that is real leadership. leaders have followers and i like his style and what he's doing and he listens. that's why we're giving him input about going to the goal line as fast as possible. whether it's one bill or two bills and let's talk to the house and senate and white house. all i want to see is the fastest possible outcome with the best result. larry: well, senator danes,

look, your finger is on the pulse, i watched you all last year and doing a hell of a job. you did engineer the republican takeover of the senate. you're from the great state of montana where as my saintly wife is from and where we were married in montana. with all that good common sense, what do you recommend? one bill or two bill? you've got defense about the boarder and you've got energy and spending cuts and going back to play go, sir. then the tax cuts. how do you put that all together if not in one package. >> that's for the president with the president going to be open for two and keeping our minds open and put putting this on the table and getting it done as quickly as possible and're going to get bound by a process

argument. we want to keep options available to us and get there as fast as possible and the two magic numbers, larry, are 218 in the house, 51 in the senate. those are the two magic numbers. that's what we have to focus on. i'm a numbers guy at art. making sure we have the outcome and 51 republican senators and 218 republican house members and we're in the end zone. larry: congratulations on the job as election chairman. we appreciate it very much. coming up next, economist denning said he see as trump boom to close out the rest of the decade with record highs in the stock market indexes. he's going to be here right next to us onset. i'm kudlow, waiting for your denning, here it comes. ♪

been an optimist and might say you've been right, and in fact you said there was reception and you're right about that, too. it's a snapshot and where are we right now. >> we're in 2019 and dawned on me that the 2020s might have some similarities with the 1920s. a big productivity boom based on technological innovations leading to an increase in the standard of living and productivity is a wonderful variable and makes everything better and we show that we would see a really good rebound in the productivity and going for technology used to augment placing the labor and skilled labor is extremely scarce and here we are basically halfway through the lowering 2020s and worked out pretty well and i think now especially in the incoming administration and

going to have it happen and no heart who won and i think sometimes we give too much attention to all due respect that i spend a lot of time down there, but i think you also often said that the economy has its own an 3458 spirits and it's got its own dynamics and capitalist ick economy still despite the fact that it's in some ways has been offset by crony capitalism and venture capital and technology innovations are all there and driving the economy and making the u.s. exceptional. larry: we've seen it and it's interesting and going to be optimistic and since the election and i think countering the tax cuts going for the operation and let's see, the s&p index is where, right now?

should listen to what the economy is saying and it's normalized interest rates and it's a zero fed funds rate and 5.25%. having it closer to 4% and i think the bond market is saying that the fed is in the economy and doesn't need to be stimulated and inflation not quite yet at 2% and jumping the gun here just assuming that it's going to continue with no mass and no more rate cuts. we don't need it. larry: trump said he should have fired me. he came out and said that and going on top of those who helped him out. i don't want to see bidenflation ratcheting back up. they're spending less. >> economists like you and

myself, economy is on a year over year basis and price verse a year ago and most americans look at it on a five year basis and five year basis, we're seeing prices a lot higher. i mean, you know, i'm shocked by some of the prices i see out there and what we have to pay and so i think that what the american public wants to see is prices coming down. and i think the only way that's going to come without having a recession or depression, the only reasonable way it's going to come down is in fact with the administration and going to have energy price down and it's going for them with very important key driving force for the level of prices and it's possible to bring prices down but i think you have to do that by

larry: if trump can manage a peace deal or ceasefire and you might take some of that war premium out of crude or oil prices and that's a possibility. >> that's a very strong important the other thing seizure disorders suspect that they're going to find it hard to reduce the deficit or slow the increase of outlays without coming up with some more revenues and i think they're probably going to do leasing and they're going to lease oil and gas and mineral rights and if their properties are such that it's easy to extract from those kind of wells, that'll lower the price worldwide. larry: you would advocate people stay in the market? >> absolutely. is it a passive investment strategy in which i happen to favor myself personally. >> i don't have a problem with that personally. yeah, you can combine the both.
