higher income and retail and highlighting energy and it's a grady trimble good place to be and certainly demand across not just the u.s. but some emerging market activity, which we think will be a positive. energy consumer technology and discretionary. liz: eric, look at gain on the dow, 707 points and nasdaq that's the percentage winner and that's going to do it for us. kudlow is next. larry: hello, folks, welcome to kudlow, i'm larry kudlow. israel and hamas reached a cease-fire deal and are we handcuffing israel in fight to destroy terrorism? senator john barrasso on that and trump energy revolution in

just a moment. meanwhile trump cabinet nominee seem to be sailing through and then are markets ready for shock and awe tariff and congressman jim jordan and steve forbes waiting in the wings and first up grady trimble on what happened today exactly. looks pretty good to me. >> larry, by far the most contentious of the hears is pam bondi. she's president elect trump's nominee for attorney general and democratic senators questioned how to serve in this role since she's close friends with trump though republicans pointed out it would be foolish not to pick someone they're close with. democrats also asked repeatedly who won the 2020 election and grilled her on whether she'd use the department of justice to go after political o points such as liz cheney to which bondi responded no, she wouldn't be doing that. that's what's been happening for the last four years in this current administration and she

plans to stop that. senator marco rubio and sean duffy received bipartisan praise for secretaries of state and transportation respectively and same with john ratcliffe, trump's pick to lead the cia. democrats hit trump'sman nominee for management and budget over his defense of trump's plans to cut spending and shrink the size of the federal government. >> inflation by irresponsible spending taxes americans twice. reporter: secretary nominee chris wright unleashed plans for bolstering the national security and the economy and democrats largely focused on climate change.

larry: israel-hamas ceasefire. edward, what can you tell isn't it trues >> larry, 33 hostages will be released, 23 of them are alive. they will go back to their families after more than about 500 days in captivity. ten of them the remains sent back to their loved ones for a proper burial and a final fair r well and hundreds of palestinians released and criminals that will be released and some of them in jail for terrorism charges and ceasefire lasting 42 day withs hostage releases in three phases. president joe biden's teamworking on hostage deal for months. >> the release of number of hostages held by hamas including

women, elderly and wounded. proud to say americans are part of the hostage release. reporter: now, in recent weeks president elect donald trump sent his envoy to sees fire talks on truth social and president elect says this "pressuring hamas saying that we'll continue promoting peace through strength throughout the region as we build upor expand historic abraham accords". confirmation hearing for senator marco rubio, secretary of state, he was asked about this in realtime. now this. >> i was very pleased to see the announcement today of ceasefire and return of hostages so let us pray it holds and implemented. >> the good news and not the ceasefire today and that's very important and the good news is potentially having that that

changes the dynamic of what might be possible. reporter: if that holds, 75 hostages in captivity and spokesperson stephen miller said the trump -- president elect trump's team was absolutely critical in pushing this over the line to get the deal done. larry, back to you. larry: thank you, edward. appreciate that wrap up. so, are we handcuffing israel in their fight to destroy terrorism and saving freedom in the middle east and america? that's the subject of the riff. any time hostages are released is a wonderful and joyous development and israeli and american families suffered so much while their children, spouses, soldiers have been held captive in hamas' hell over the past 15 months. so, let's start there. and be grateful for it. let's hope that the freeing of 33 hostages actually takes place.

tragically that number was around 250 15 months ago and several american hostages are expected to be released in phase one, three are presumed still alive, four declared dead, the evil barbaric hamas terrorists for the others and it's evil humanity and it's a question. how good a deal is this? i don't know all the details and this is all the details and even joe bind's state department said mr. trump's involvement was critical as our own edward lawrence reported.

the middle east war is not over. according to reports, israeli troops permitted to remain in the philadelphia corridor separating egypt and gaza for another six weeks but then they're expected to leave, and the so called phase two of the deal mandate as complete israeli from gaza and a permanent ceasefire and meanwhile at least a thousand palestinians including 200 murdered israelis, well they'll all be released from israel prisons, well, aren't they just going to go straight to gaza and resume their violent jihad against israel and america? meanwhile, numerous reports suggest that hamas is regroups, recruiting, reenergizing and hamas leader yahya sinwar was recruited by his brother

mohammad sinwar has become the new leader. if, and it's a big if, the hostages are released in two phases, and israel troops are mandated to leave gaza, and a thousand palestinian prisoners released from israeli jails and hamas is rebuilding, itself, how can this be a good deal? steve whit kuff devin benefit of the doubt and hostage increase. perhaps president trump will give israel to ban the nuclear facility and idf intends to

destroy hamas all together as incoming defense secretary pete hegseth testified yesterday, he supports killing every last member of hamas, incoming national security adviser mike walz repeated and marco rubio testified today that if hamas is there, there'll never be a ceasefire. perhaps, perhaps but knowing what we think we know, hamas will remain in power in gaza. israel's military presence will end in gaza. not goods. i always thought we just unleash the idf against all the middle east tariffs and that we'd all be grateful to israel for not only saving their freedom and saving freedom in the middle east, but frankly saving all western freedom and judiah christian culture and thereby

saving america as well. but putting handcuffs back on idf will stop them from destroying terrorism and stop them from saving freedom in the middle east and america. thank you for coming back on. larry: you're a member of the foreign relations senate and i want to get your take on this. you may have heard my opening riff and some of my concerns about this story, i love it that the hostages will be released, hopefully, but i'm just not sure about the rest of the story, senator barrasso. can you help me out, sir? >> i'd agree with you, larry.

>> we can't stop till they're all released and the big picture is if donald trump hasn't gets the winnen reelected and i don't think this sort of thing will come to pass. the world is waking up to the fact that we have a new american president coming in who will rebuild, reestablish, restore, and do all the things in terms of american power around the world and american strength and projecting that and bad guys around the world are seeing it and are reacting as a result. with regard to israel, we need to make sure that security and safety of people of israel is preserved and hamas had to be able to be rebuilt. we know iran cons to refund and iran on the back foot right now and going get a lot worse than them and donald trump is in the white house and right now the people of israel can breathe a

sigh of relief with donald trump in the white house, they'll have america standing side by side. larry: part of the deal and so-called phase two and israel has to remove the troops from gaza and hamas looks to be left there. we're seeing newspaper reports and you probably saw them too. i believe it's a front page of "the wall street journal" today, yesterday, the day before, other outlets and hamas is rebuilding and they're reenergizing i sinwar's brother coming in to take the leadership. if the idf is out of there, hamas is going to be there and i worry that the war not only goes on but, you know, it's like two steps forward, one step backwards or one step forward and two steps back. i can't figure it out, senator. i was hoping we'd unleash the idf for six months and finish

the whole bloody job in gaza. you know, that's what pete hegseth said. i don't understand. >> hamas has to be eliminated completely or worry about what happened 500 day ago on october 7 with hamas going for the massacre that occurred and can never be allowed to go again and only way is with a complete destruction of hamas. larry: do you think this deal promotes a complete destruction of hamas or let me ask, let me ask the question and there are things that we don't know about and perhaps there's policewomans we don't know about and just doesn't sound like it.

>> senator bra sew -- senator barrasso. thank you very much. the hearing in the senate and mr. trump will overturn every single, these cruisie climate change, radical green new deal, regulations and what can you tell us about that. >> president trump is going to

make america energy dominant again and good news for more thans that will save money on energy and heating hopes and driving vehicles, larry. energy was on the ballot this year on election day, and american energy won. if you want to have a strong, healthy, and growing economy in, you need affordable energy. it's right there for a strong economy, for a strong military, and i'm from wyoming. wyoming is america's energy bread basket. america is a world energy superpower. we just haven't acted like it for the last four years and we'll act like it again. president trump day one will sign enough executive orders and a blizzard of executive orders taking handcuffs off american energy and getting rid of these ev mandates, ev tax credits and all of those sorts of things and getting rid of the ridiculous moratorium on exploration and ability for us to send overseas to our allies natural gas.

american energy because energy is known as the master resource for a reason. powers our economy and military. it's good american jobs, affordable energy is the key to future. larry: off all this money and rhetorical nonsense and half baked lies we've been told the fact remains that energy is crucial and iday dare say i think that base load, senates torr bras koenen, will be some -- senator barrasso, some combination of natural gas and nuclear and going forward for the next 50 years or next 100

years. >> president trump put together all star team on cabinet and secretary of energy and doug burgum will be there tomorrow and energy committee as secretary of the interior and lee zeldin there for epa and they'll put together energy commission and national energy commission that's going to be able to oversee energy, oil, gas, electric power and all those things and this will be american energy, american energy jobs and cleaner and better than anybody else in the world, and that's why america energy, master resource is there to power the country into the future. larry: promote more growth and less inflation. how about them apples. more growth and less inflation. we like that. last one, senator barrasso. no blank check for california. i mean, federal government will try to be and republicans running the federal government

will try to be humane and help and feel provide emergency assistance, but, but, but, but if governor gavin newsom and democrats continue and empty reservoirs and fire hydrants and bad manage.bad water manage.power management, it's going to cost you $250 billion and maybe more before it's all said and done. you are right. no blank check. they've got to show hard print of daylight and the taxpayers giving them more money. >> it is heart breaking what we're seeing happening right now in california. we have wyoming national guard there helping out manpower as well as equipment. but there's going to be help from the federal government, you're absolutely right. there has to be accountability for that money. it cannot be a blank check. what we've seen and the fire

chief of la county has said they were let down by the mayor and elected officials and being gross negligent at state and local level and fire department had 17 million taken away from the budget and they were already stretched too thin and used money for social programs and you see now that the governor took $100 million away from forest management to be used for other things. i have a bill, a wild fire prevention act and we have them going throughs senate energy committee last year. unanimous bipartisan and going to head to california and we can prevent something like this from ever happening again and people of california failed by their elected officials in sacramento and la.

larry: senator, i pray for the people in los angeles but i pray that the people come to their senses and vote out gavin newsom. it's an apocalyptic seventh could have an unbelievable change in california politics, and i think you and other cspan help that change in california politics. carrots and sticks. it's an old fashioned idea. carrots and sticks. senate majority whip janitor john bras koenen -- senator john barrasso, thank you very much. trump's cabinet nominees seem to be sailing through and mike davis and ned ryun next up. catch kudlow monday through friday at 4:00 p.m. here on fabulous fox business and for some reason you can't get us at 4:00 p.m., text your favorite 9-year-old and she will show you how to dvr the show. you will never miss a single apocalypse in california. i promise you, i'm kudlow.

kash patel. they're like little ankle biters. this is the all they can do and nobody reached across the aisle and we like what you're saying, ms. bondi, and we'll help you. just a bunch of left wing brain dead ankle biters because they have amnesia about what happened on november 5, mike. amnesia. >> yep. pam bondi hit it out of the park today and dermovateed her decisive leadership, her strong command of the facts and the law and even some of the smarter senate judiciary democrats conceded today that pam bondi is going to win senate confirmation. >> oat people are complete and utter morons and the people that ought to get things done on senate democrat side like dick

durbin, he know this is is inevitable to get confirmed. larry: getting confirmed, no question about it. ned ryun, what else happened out there. john ratcliffe, marco rubio, chris wright at energy department and dear friend russell voting and these are all incredible strong players and all part of the trump revolution and all part of one big beautiful bill. >> pam bondi is interesting in restoring trust in the doj and equal application of the law and rule of law and standing equal before it and i hope she'll have transparency a huge part of restoring trust in the institution, larry. deep state thrives in darkness and really does wither in the light of day and i hope she goes out and releases all the

documents that pertain to russian collusion, january 6. i hope she releases communications of coordinated political lawfare against trump that ag garland and doj and i think the biden white house were actually coordinating the more they get, they'll have faith restored in the institutions. i think pam bondi -- larry: ned, transparency yes. retribution, i don't think so. >> actability. i think there needs to be accountability. pam bondi needs to sit down and tell every career lawyer at doj u you get to re-interview for your job. if you don't want to interview, resign or be fired. she goes out and fires all career assistant u.s. attorneys and needs to be accountability for last eight or nine years, larry, there's no accountability and people think the power of abuse is in the future.

larry: my friend kash patel and fbi director and they went through pam bondi and what did pam say and what's the outlook for kash patel? >> kash patel will get con if i wered like pete hegseth just like pam bondi and the rest of the them. cashcash wow. sell is a very --h patel is a very experienced national operator and public defender and won awards from the obama justice department for being a long time national security prosecutor. if he's so crazy, why did the obama justice department give him awards? larry: i like that. i like that a lot. kash patel getting awards. anyway, gentlemen, terrific. mike davis and ned ryun, thanks for helping out. we appreciate it. all right, folks, coming up on kudlow, are markets ready for a shock and awe tariff? we're going to talk about cpi and market rally today and shock and awe tariff.

>> tariffs will make our country rich. well, i didn't have any inflation and i had massive tariffs on a lot of thins. tariffs thoughtfully use, which we'll do, and being reciprocal with other nations will make our country rich. larry: i love that. spot on. hearing from taylor riggs and cohost of the big money show and fab los angeles fox business my great friend steve forbes, forbes media chairman and editor in chief and breitbarts john carney, the coed torr of the fabulous -- c coedit torr of

the -- co- editor of breitbart. i think mr. trump will dive in with sort of shock and awe meaning 10% universal tariff and ring around the collar. 10%. i'll leave out mexico and canada and that's about the border of negotiations and he may not and 1% and 10% and he'll go after china with a larger tariff. but here's the thing, and taxes going to be okay and unfair trading practices and that's exporters will pay half oturu the price of more than some of the goods here. meanwhile, as much as

$500 billion in revenues per year is possible. that'll go to tax cuts and businesses large and small and individual families so, you know what, i think it's a net plus. that's my view and i think that's what mr. trump will say, what say steve forbes? >> well, this is why i'm here and he's in the white house buy orlikowski sell it's a theme between the two and products and services and going for 10% in there and what made the other tariffs compatible was he had a big huge beautiful tax cut in 2017. wasn't till 2018 that he started doing his tariff thing. and had an offset and if i were doing that and getting something

positive and paychecks are going and you happen withholding is going down and get that done. any damage i get that done ask everyone knows there's credibility on the sunt and we want changes just like with the original agreement with mexico and canada. it's about timing and i think going for the tax cut first and then other stuff. larry: some people in administration will argue for that and i don't think he's made up his mind net and going to be on the table. john carney, >> no, that'll give the people that don't like

tariffs at all and over him and that's going for them and demand with all sorts of concessions and in exchange of the tax cuts and going to put them on immediately and day one and you want to free the people up for goods and supplies we need and don't want to just put on tariffs and couple with tax cuts and i would not prioritize the tax cuts first and that would put unreasonable delay on the tariff. larry: taylor, i know everybody was intoing over the cpi and going for new york and empire state and new york manufacturing and plunging, and that's your production that's been plunging and manufacturing in the slum and we need 15% corporate tax i think on domestic produced goods along with his other package, which extends tax cuts but also

adds some new wrinkles on tax cuts. >> i think if you're a small business owner right now and i'm also in favor of moving quickly on tax cuts and get war on natural gassy for a minute. if i want to buy new -- wonky for a minute, i want to know and don't want to wait to make the investment decision till next september when they decide to get the tax bill through. i want it now so we get the economy working and you get it in the system and then as you've mentioned, it shows up in numbers by the time the mid terms roll around. if i'm a small business owner, i want to know my corporate tax rate may go down to 15% and may allow me to hire a couple extra people and can do it now. don't have to wait till the fall. all those give a sense of urgency. >> one thing that they should talk about is reducing the capital gains tax and nice thing about that is instant revenue for the government. larry: re-have to work on it. that's not a -- we'll have a

socialize that because you're right, i agree push back to corporate tax and you're 100% right. john carney, market was up 700 points today and bond rates fell a bit and fabulous cpi number and problem is i do like to look at the actual facts rather than wall street gossip. i know it's not 9% inflation anymore, but when i look at 12 month change, all items 2-point 2.9 and all items are 2 and reading 2-point and the taking out food and energy, which is stupid and taking that out for the so-called core, that thing is 3.2 for the last 12 months and above the fed's 2% target and three month changes are even worse. so i'm arguing that the fed should take the winner off and

take the spring off -- winter off and spring off and go south and play golf, go fishing, whatever they do, don't go to california. and wait till mr. trump's big beautiful bill goes through. one big beautiful bill before the fed does anything because whatever the fed does, they'll screw it up and i mean that sincerely -- personally but sincerely. >> they're preemptive strike cutting rates and going for the disaster and inflation is not coming down and cleveland feds going to not move at all and the trimmed mean is at like 3.3 and been there forever. 3.8 per median and those are not coming down and those are the signs of underlying inflation. there's no decline in underlying inflation and month to month up down, this that and not going to

10% and not going anywhere near there. the fed will realize this at some point and they'll create a false expectation and cut rates two times when the market realizes they're not cutting rates two times, that'll be bad for the market. larry: taylor, i operate under rigorous analytic principle that whatever the fed does wrong, okay, rigorous analytic principle and their best strategy before the big beautiful bill will get itself passed is do nothing. do nothing. you know whey mean? >> we've all said, all the market participants say when the fed is hiking and cutting but when they do nothing .h they don't talk about the fed, that's when we can go and price market to market. we can have transparency in the market when out of the way and not manipulating the market and not buying bonds and doing qe or qt. none of that.

we have to see them step aside. larry: steve forbes, last one and don't appreciate that because we believe in free speech on the show. a 10% tariff will not only disrupt the economy but make money and will translate into lower taxes. can i sell you on that? last few seconds? >> it may happen. all i'm going to say is i'd rather have the big fat tax bill and put the tariff sales tax off as long as you can. it's not doing nothing but do one thing, no longer going to try and manipulate the economy and market sets interest rates. how about that? larry: i'm with you on that. do nothing. single best policy. steve forbes, john carney, taylor riggs. taylor with brian brenberg and jackie deangeles, big money show weekdays 1:00 p.m. here on fabulous fox business. thanks to all of you, the fed should do nothing. have a shock and awe tariff.

>> they want to respect the taxpayer and respect we the people aren't going to weaponize these agencies against us and make them serve the american public like they're supposed to. that's the attitude of pam bondi and pete hegseth and i thought they both did very quell in each of their respective hearings. larry: you know, just more generally now, we'll have scott bessent tomorrow and we had russell, the director and very, very important position and very good guy. it's like democrats aren't talking about issues or policies. they're going after personalities for the most part. for the most part. just like with pam bondi and going to have retribution and those poor people on j and have have to worry about them or why not hammer away on kash patel,

which in the last segment somebody told me i think somebody, mike davis told me that kash patel actually got an award during the obama administration. in other words, instead of talking about america's future growth, proper law and order, neutral justice department, let's get energy prices down, democrats just missed all these points, jim jordan. that's what's so incredible to me. >> they're the party of the crazy policies and sara huckabee sanders and said the biden america is crazy and been a great example yesterday and bill yesterday saying men should feet against men and women against women. go figure and only two democrats voted for that legislation because because they're now left controlling their party and party of crazy and we're the party getting back to common sense and good energy policy lpg with our economy and keeping taxes low so our economy will grow. securing the border, rule of law, not weaponization of the justice department. just basic common sense things

consist with our constitution. that's what we're about and that's why these 77 million people voted for president trump on november 5. so let's stay focused on that. if we do that, we'll make america great again. larry: it's really something. i think the republicans are doing a good job. i think the nominations are very good. they're taking the high road. you can see it the they're taking the policy high road and i watched pete hegseth and watching pam bondi and watching scott bessent tomorrow and take the high road and policy road and trump road. donald trump want as new group to create a golden era of security and america first and economic growth. i mean, that's what folks want to hear, positive optimism. democrats don't have an optimistic bone in their body. jaire there's a sense out there and feel it when walking through

airports and see people walking the other way ask see me and give you a little thumb's up and twinkle in their eye and they just feel better about this great country, the greatest country ever. they feel like things are moving back on the right path and it is a positive message that president trump has and again, it's reflected in the people he is selected for the pis key cabinet positions. larry: i got about 20 seconds with the great jim jordan and one big beautiful bill. one big beautiful bill and we'll be okay on that, sir? >> e ya, get it done. we make the job too complicated and telling the voters what we'll do. getting elected. go do what you said. do what we said what president trump said and all campaigned on and like i said before, make america great. larry: home run. home run. great jim jowski r dan chairman of house -- jim jordan and chairman of the house judiciary. i'll be right back, folks with my last word.
