dozens of tornadoes leaving a deadly trail of destruction across the midwest. >> oh my god! it's huge! it's huge! it's huge! >> that woman capturing incredible video of the storm while driving on the highway. we're live in illinois with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: steve, good morning to you. as you mentioned, at least six people are dead. dozens more are injured. it still remains unclear with much of the power out, many roads unpassable how many are injured and if that death toll will rise. here in manhattan, illinois, an assembly of god church was hit by an ef-2 tornado while the entire congregation was inside trapping them there until rescuers could come in. miraculously only minor injuries were there. the worst damage appears to be in washington outside of peoria. the ef4 storm hit with

winds between 100 and 200 miles an hour. we're told it cleared a path about an eighth of a mile wide from one side of the city to the other. search and rescue operations underway there. about more than 200 homes were completely leveled is what we're told. the illinois national guard sent theirs to assist with the search and rescue operations. as the sun comes up in a few hours they will get a better idea of how extensive this damage was across the state as well as the region. steve? >> thank you very much. it is just awful out there. we saw a moment ago, we saw a young man who had his camera, cell phone camera taking images of a tornado coming toward his neighborhood while saying the our father. he was down in the basement. he is going to be joining us live very shortly to tell us about what his family was up against. they were really, really lucky. >> that account will be just shocking i think to so

many to hear, especially if you've seen that video. >> in other news, obamacare and all the conundrum that goes along with it doesn't get better. now senator jill -- gillibrand admitting we knew the president was lying about obamacare. she was asked if she was shocked by the revelation so many people would be losing their care. take a listen. >> do you feel misled by obama? >> he should have been more specific. the point is if you're being offered a terrible health care plan that the minute you get sick you're going to have to go into bankruptcy, those plans should never be offered. >> were you misled? >> he should have been specific. no. we knew. the point of the plan is to cover things people need like preventive care, birth control, pregnancy. >> the important part senator gillibrand, she said at the end we all knew. the whole point of the plan

is to cover things people need like preventive care, birth control and things of that sort. the president wants, if you got a lousy subpar policy you can keep it for another year, one more year. but they all knew according to the senator. >> i find it interesting that the senators who are up for election this term in 2014 in november are the ones who are pushing back saying we unrolled this wrong. we have to rethink this a little bit. but senators like kirsten gillibrand is a little more aggressive saying we knew what they were doing. but it will be okay over time. >> to your point, senator gillibrand actually responded to the question is it just about the reelections and she indeed did say she was just responding to what the constituents in her area were saying. they're hearing the battle cry. it seems as though to many that their actions and words are not matching.

>> no kidding. we heard by the end of this month the affordable care -- make that the not so affordable care act would be up and running for a vast majority. now over the weekend we discovered that the vast majority means it will work for 80% of the people who signed on. if you're amazon.com and 20% of the time you get it wrong, how long are they going ss here? >> not only that if you're c.e.o. obama, not president obama and it's obamacare inc., not obamacare the redistributive law, this guy would be fired. >> if you stood in front of your shareholders or the board of directors and said i didn't know it was going to work and we'll get it fixed eventually, they would have a shareholder revolt and say we're done with this guy. let's find someone that can get this done. >> you know what, eric? i think nancy pelosi is sick and tired. she was the architect in this thing. call it pelosi care rather than obamacare. she's sick of all the people hounding the

government about how it's all screwed up. she refers now to the controversy around obamacare as just hoopty-do. here she is on "meet the press." >> when people see what is in the bill, they will like it. and they will. so while there's a lot of hoopty-do and ado about what's happening, very appropriate. i'm not kreut saoeugz. i'm saying it took a -- i'm not criticizing. i'm saying it took a great deal to pass this bill. >> today the story of a 54-year-old woman distressed because in the process of this interim she reached out to her customer service representative at her insurer and she said she's going to maybe have to wait 45 more days to even get some answers. people distressed losing the coverage they loved. and when is 80% good enough? wasn't the initial promise that everyone was supposed to be taken care of here? and now 80% is good enough? why are we continuing to lower the bar? >> they've enrolled about

106,000 people so far. only 26,000 through the website. but five million people have lost their coverage. a lot of hoopty-do, 4.9 something million people are uninsured because of obamacare. not more people insured. >> dave camp, chairman of the house, ways and means committee, he took exactly what you just gave, those facts and he put it a different way. he said that the number of people who have had their plans canceled is 185 times higher than the number of people who have actually signed on. >> what's the hoopty-do all about? come on. any way. >> it looks like there's some suggestion maybe the president needs to clean house at the white house. do you think? because he says he was kept in the dark about so much stuff. >> he's always kept in the dark. he heard about benghazi, he heard about the i.r.s., he heard about all these things. >> we're always updating. you know why?

because heather nauert is here every morning to bring us headlines. >> elisabeth, i know you were watching the nfl, the bears-ravens game, delay because of the storm. we have shocking new video to bring you this morning. it is a moment a fan plunges from the third deck of ralph wilson stadium in buffalo, new york, last night's game between the bills and jets. the guy appears to be shraoeugdz down a building building -- sliding down a building on the upper deck. he landed on another fan hitting the person in the head. both were taken to the hospital and are expected to be okay. crazy video there coming out of buffalo. we'll keep you posted. this morning investigation is underway following a deadly mining accident that took place in southwestern colorado. investigators say two

quote, higher calling. here to give us her response is news director at the tea party news network. good morning to you. are you one of these zealots they're talking about? >> i think not only is this article ludicrous, it is extremely hypocritical. when you read this article, he tries to paint this portrait of the tea party as being crazy and john mccain whacko birds and apocalyptic. in the end he's painting a self-portrait because by the end of the article you're going he's really the crazy one here. you're going bless his part because there is no way to excuse that type of journalism. the daily beast, they are an opinion journalist, but he didn't say, by the way, the tea party is supposed to stand for fiscal responsibility, limited government and states' rights and constitutional rights. >> right. i know that. i understand that's what the tea party is about. that's how they got started in the first place. i get that.

mainstream media, the way they deal, the way to attack your enemy is to try to marginalize them. every time i talk about the tea party i'm going to call them an extremist. >> call us all the names you want. we're used to it. everything you say about me bounces off me and sticks to you. i give him credit to this, the fact that he said the g.o.p. is giving heartburn. that's what we want to do. we want to continue to show the g.o.p. this is the party you need to be and continue to push the issues and not necessarily continue to cave in like we have in the past. >> sure. one of the things the mainstream media has been pushing is there this civil war for the heart and soul of the republican party. >> they are. you saw it this week when you saw governor scott walker yesterday and everybody saying he came out against senator ted cruz. he did not come out against senator ted cruz. >> if people missed the sound bite, i want to run it so people want to know what you're talking about. here he is yesterday on abc. >> when you were elected in

and jonathan carl said the republicans who pushed that strategy, shutdown strategy made a mistake? governor walker said i think so. >> strategy wise it didn't work out? >> he basely khreut the powder keg. everything he's saying is coming true. in the end i think we will all work together and get along. i guarantee governor walker would be ideal president, throw in steve king, the speaker of the house, and we have a dream team for 2016. >> she is the tea party news network news director, scottie knell, thank you for joining us live. what do you think about that? 19 minutes after the top of the hour. it keeps getting worse for toronto's crack-smoking mayor. a major decision today could determine his future. >> they are the undefeated football team dominating the ncaa right now, but for f.s.u. head coach and his family, the real battle is

i think you can't -- college football is like a playoff every week. i think the key is getting those guys to play consistent every week and put the last game behind and go the next. it takes a mature team, a lot of focus and determination. our guys have done a great job of that. >> i've got to ask you, alabama number one. you're number two. looks like you two are going to be until -- in the national championship. your thoughts. >> i hope it works out that way. >> let me cut through this. i've heard that speech so much growing up. >> that's our plan to win every game. that is our goal to win every game. hopefully at the end of the year, that is our goal. >> you talk about focus and distraction. how do you separate your two battles. your number-one battle, your game plan is to get him better. he's eight years old. he has a rare disease. >> he has a disease that is

tornadoes or damaging winds to be reported often. you can see on your screen some of those images heart breaking. there was an ef-4 tornado that was confirmed. 166 to 200 miles per hour winds. many crews will be heading out to these states, ohio, indiana, illinois, some of those states that have tornado reported. they're going to survey the damage and based on what they see they can estimate what wind speeds -- >> there is no good time for a tornado but certainly as we are heading into holiday season, thanksgiving, we have the winter coming and cold. i can't imagine -- >> yes. that's something also to point out. many of these people do not have power and temperatures behind the storm, this is a very strong cold front pushed eastward. had mile temperatures east of it, behind it very cold. temperatures, the highs only in the 40's. very windy, gusts up to 30

miles per hour. you're talking cold conditions. people who do not have power, do not have a place to go to sleep tonight. >> that's rough. we promised we would have an interview with that young man who took the video but the power is out in his neighborhood and we cannot get ahold of him right now. sorry for that but we were able to bring you the video and show you the story behind it. 25 minutes before the top of the hour. heather nauert has got other headlines. >> i have a good friend who lives in that area, haven't been able to get in touch yet. other news, new video set to be revealed today on the two-year anniversary of the disappearance of the orlando woman michelle parker. she is the mother of three who went missing hours after she appeared on the tv show the people's court. she had a dispute with her ex-fiancee dale smith. her hummer vehicle was found abandoned aot an apartment complex and her cell phone discovered under a bridge.

way. >> that's the key. >> hitting, you get hit in basketball. if you're taught how to hit and how to take a hit, you're going to be okay. i think he's off base on this. it's up to the parents and coaches, in my opinion. >> i'm not sure if moving the goal post will solve the actual problem. it may be covering up what's going on. i think understanding how to take a hit, give a hit. tim, my husband, is speaking on a concussion panel this week and will be going into a bunch of details. here's the great news. the technology to monitor what type of impact your child may withstand throughout the day is actually getting better. we'll have more information to sort of couple with the new studies coming out saying these kids are having concussions, sort of started with the nfl and the results we're seeing with brain disease. hopefully that tech will match the risk. i like the helmet.

there is a real good possibility that millions of americans will lose their doctor next year with the employer mandate. >> that is correct. >> medicare advantage is supplemental insurance so why would the doctors be affected by supplemental insurance. it is not part of obamacare. >> the federal government pays the insurers a per patient fee to take care of medicare advantage customers. that payment is being cut by $150 billion under obamacare. >> can i take it one step further? and we saw this coming. we talked about medicare, people who are on medicare advantage might start to lose their doctor, might start to lose their insurance. let me be con speur toreial. aarp says they have a competitor to medicare advantage. are people going to be forced to look at aarp and those types of companies to supplement their insurance? >> they are going to be forced to look elsewhere because united health care is dropping these thousands of doctors, pushing hundreds of thousands of patients out of their system of coverage. they've got to look

elsewhere. they are essentially in limbo. you follow this down the road, there is $150 billion cut from the medicare advantage program. now supposing the president wants to fix this and reinstate the $150 billion. where does that money come from? you've broken another promise. >> we know where the money is going to come from. >> it is going to add a dime to the deficit, unlike the promise the president made. that's three broken promises. >> costly. >> it's monday morning and have a nice day. >> all right, stuart. >> this is the grim reality on a monday morning. it just gets worse. >> stuart is going to be talking over on fox business all about the news of the day so check him out if you're in that neighborhood. sir, thank you. >> the guys from "duck dynasty" are getting into politics? >> if you love america and you live in louisiana, you need to vote for vance this saturday because i sure as heck know i am. >> coming up, their winning

the exterior of the church. we felt like that the communities that the churches were in were seeing the churches from the outside as being quite frankly, selfish. so we decided to start a ministry. we spent three years developing a ministry that would probably have been a little outbalanced on the extrovert side. >> you sort of seek reality -- speak real knit a world that sometimes people think is not in touch with reality, right? >> what's really going on and what we try to do is help churches identify who they are because if we can help them identify who they are, then they know how they fit into the community. the benefit that they have is when that church was originally planted or ever how it came to being, the thing is that there was a need in the community and the good thing is that that need is still there, but it may have a little different dynamic. so there is a purpose that runs through the church, that

actually is trying to embrace the community. that's what we tried to do. >> so what would you say overreaching mistake churches make? >> oh, mercy. being too introverted. not getting in touch with the community, knowing what the community is about, getting involved in things that are just kind of community driven. we build these facilities and we talk church language and we expect everyone to come in and get what they need to openly take that back out into the community, but a lot of times folks don't focus on what the community needs are and hear from the community and get out there and start to tailor their passions and their ministries around what is unique to that particular community. >> how many churches have you seen where it's just impossible, you've looked and say, you know what? i've got the faith to do this, but it's practically not going to happen? >> we haven't seen a church that is impossible. >> unless they've already closed the doors. >> because every church has a focus in the church. the community needs that church.

that's the reason it's there. so all churches are possible. what is impossible sometimes is to get them to realize what it is that their benefit is to that community. >> who usually calls you? the pastor, the head of the temple? who calls you? the people or the leadership? >> it could be anybody. it could be anybody. part of the process is finding out who the decision maker is. it could be anybody. so we want to cut to the chase and find out who makes the decisions in that particular ministry so that we can -- when we come in and do our work, we can cut right to the heart of the chase and make sure we're leaving them with the best possible impact that they can have on that community. >> we are glad you're here today. just so you know, the show areas tonight, 10:00 p.m. on the national geographic channel. thank you so much. >> thank you. well, the obamacare fix, is it more of a failure as democrats begin to defect? nancy pelosi refuses to admit she was wrong. donald trump is here to weigh in

good morning. it's monday, november 18. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. a fox news alert, terrifying moments as a giant twister touches down in illinois. >> oh, my god! it's huge! it's huge! it's huge! >> a trail of destruction after nearly 60 tornadoes tore through the midwest, leaving at least six people dead. we are live on the ground with the latest there. and the president's so-called obamacare fix drawing critics from both sides of the aisle. was this fix more of a failure? donald trump is on that in a couple minutes. and caught on dashboard camera, a routine traffic stop turns dangerous after an officer opens fire on a speeding driver

with five children board. what happened? we'll try to tell you everything we know about that. "fox & friends" hour two for this monday starts right now. >> it's time for "fox & friends"! >> and on this monday, brian kilmeade is off and eric bolling -- >> slacker! >> nice. love the music. >> that's my favorite song, you know that, right? >> we know that. >> good to be here. first time on the couch. great to finally work with you, elisabeth. >> great to see you on this side of the clock. >> that's right. >> we got a busy show. we have a fox news alert now. tens of thousands of people across the midwest are left to pick up the pieces after a powerful twister, turned their homes into pile of rubble.

in manhattan, illinois, now the latest. certainly devastating sight. what's the latest there? >> well, that devastation goes all across the state of illinois. especially in the central part of the state. that is where we are seeing some of the worst damage this morning as the sun comes up. we're starting to get a better idea of how widespread this devastation is. the video that you've seen down there is just incredible, just how expansive this tornado was. we're told the winds of that tornado exceeded 200 miles an hour, demolishing entire neighborhoods. serve and rescue teams were on the ground all throughout the night searching for any survivors. as the sun comes up, they're going to be continuing those efforts there. what were once neighborhoods, as you can see, are rubble everywhere down across there, across blocks and blocks.

we're told that the illinois national guard is also there on the scene. the red cross, salvation army are also down there. people are coming from across the state as resources are being brought in. power lines are down, you can see behind us. but these crews are out trying tree store the power this morning. opening these roads so they can find out just how bad much of the damage is all across the state. >> all right. live with the very latest. it was like -- practically tropical weather before the storm and now it is freezing out there. and there you can see some of the devastation out there. 60 tornadoes in all. and this was a storm system that the weather forecasters knew was going to pop up because of the confluence of bad weather and it did. >> how do you know all this about weather, steve? >> i know some people. i watch the news. speak of news, headlines now with heather nauert. >> good morning. how hard it's going to be for so many people to wake up and see the scope of the devastation there. >> no kidding. >> we'll keep following that.

we have other news to bring you. shocking new video coming in. look at this right here. it's from a fan and he plunges from the third deck of ralph wilson stadium in buffalo, new york. look at that. this happened last night during the game between the bills and the jets. it looks like the guy was sliding down the railing on the upper deck. you know how high those things are at stadiums. then he obviously lost his balance and fell to the deck below. he landed on another fan and hit that guy in the head. both were taken to the hospital, but are expected to be okay. this morning an investigation underway following a deadly mining accident in southwestern colorado. investigators say that two miners died last night from carbon monoxide poisoning. those gasses are believed to have been released following some sort of incident with explosives in that mine. 20 other people were hurt in that accident. two of them still remain hospitalized this morning. in russia, 50 people are

dead after a boeing jet liner crashes and bursts into flames while it tries to land. according to the russian aviation agency, the plane was attempting a second landing when it touched down on the runway and then caught fire. it killed everyone on board that plane. we still don't know why the first landing was your honor successful -- unsuccessful, but boeing will assist in the crash investigation. sunday's raiders game had serious presidential power on the side lines. presidents george w. and h.w. bush led the players on the field at reliant stadium in houston and served as the honorary captain and paid tribute to our service members and their families as part of the texans salute to service week. the texans lost to the raiders 28-23. those are your headlines for this hour. how about that? they got both in the stadium. >> pretty neat. >> thank you. it's monday, that means donald trump is joining us.

good morning to you. >> good morning. >> friday they had a vote in the house, over three dozen house democrats defected from the president, went over to the republican side for the fred upton bill. that's probably one of the reasons nancy pelosi was on the "meet press" program yesterday. listen to this where she refuses to admit she was wrong even though she's been caught. listen to this. >> the government has decided there have to be minimum standards that are minimum requirements in any health care plan. so if you have something and you like it and it doesn't meet what the government says you have to have, you can not keep it. >> that's not what you said. >> if you had your plan before the enactment of the law in 2010, if you had your plan before, there is nothing in the law that says you have -- but you know, again, we can go back and forth on this. >> she did they got caught! >> well, she's got a tough job.

she's trying to sell something that's not sellable. she's having a very, very tough time up there. you can see that. it's not easy for her. and it's a disaster and the democrats are coming over because they have no choice. they're going to lose their elections. 2014, three our four weeks ago was not look good fort republicans. now i think it's probably looking great. they can take both house. it's a shame they have to do it on the backs of so many people that are being devastated. people are being devastated. they're losing health plans and plans they thought were so fabulous and they were so happy with and they're being taken away or being charged double, triple and quadruple and it's a mess. it's a really big mess. so when you see nancy pelosi just groveling up there, there is nothing much she can do. on the assumption she wants to try to defend this and it's not defensible. >> how long can she get away with it or down playing it? over 5 million americans losing

policies and counting. some are depicting it as chaos coming forward in this interim forward of extension. what did she say, hoop deloo. >> it's phrases we haven't heard of. i'm sure she hasn't heard that. she was up there doing the best she could. it's a very, very tough situation for them. you look at the republicans. nobody should be happy because you're talking about health care and that's the whole ball game. but the republicans really have an opportunity now to straighten this thing out and they should not do it in little pieces. they should not try and do it in little piece. if you remember four weeks ago when the republicans wanted to ask for little pieces of the economy, when you had the shutdown, the democrats said, we want all or nothing every time. even things that you would say oh, boy, they have to -- but they said we want nothing. we want all or nothing. now the republicans have to do the same thing. 'cause there is a chance in this country to get great health

care, really great health care, go across state lines. there are so many different things you can do. get great health care at a lesser cost. that would be a winner. >> let's play a little strategy. there are solutions, a lot of republicans say the health care state lines and things like that, bring some competition, et cetera. but let's play politics for a second here. you got 2014 looming a year away. you have 2016 a couple years away. the only way you're going to elicit real health care change is if you flip the senate to republican and maybe get a republican in the white house. so do you fix obama's problem right now? do you throw a hand and say here is how you fix health care now or say, you know what? you own it, you bought it. you live with it. we'll fix it when we have the senate, the house, and the white house? >> eric, first of all, you have to take -- let's take politics out of it and do the right thing. by the way, i like steve's tie much more than yours. okay? when which is nonexistent. i love it.

i assume that's a trump tie, but i love his tie. >> it's a surprise. >> if you take it all out and just take the politics out, we want to have a great health care system. you can't do this in little pieces. just like they can't fix the web site in little pieces, you have to start all over again. i know a lot about web sites. that site is so broken, the only way they can do something with the web site, just let everybody go on. have no checks and balances. and that's what's happening, by the way. they're not going to fix it. they're going to let everybody, people that never would have qualified, go on and that way they're going to say, oh, look, we signed so many people. it's a disaster. but eric, there is no question in my mind, this country can have great health care if we use the brain that we have. but this is not going to work. and i actually think it's not going to happen if obama would say hey, we made a mistake. did he it before when he lied. but if we would go back and start together, republicans, democrats and everybody else, and come up with a really great

plan that would work, wouldn't that be great? unfortunately for that, you need leadership and we don't have leadership. >> all right. i'm sure we're going to be talk more about this later on today in this telecast. you work at nbc and somebody who works for that company is alec baldwin. he signed on to that cable wing, news cable wing. what do you make of his absolutely unhinged state over the last week or so? i mean, here we show him verbally assaulting linda schmidt from channel 5 here in new york city, accusing her of hurting his wife, which was not true. what's going on with him? >> well, i'm not a good person to ask 'cause i know alec and i like him. i think he's a terrific guy. he really is. you get to know him and you got to like him. but maybe there is method behind the madness 'cause hey, you're talking about him. everybody is talking about him and you're not talking about other people. >> but we're talking about --

it's not in a good way. >> no, it's not a good thing. i think ultimately -- look, if his wife said he has a management problem, anger management, who am i to say he doesn't? i just know him. i like him. i've always liked him. i think he probably likes me. who knows? we're at different sides in terms of politics certainly. but i would say that he probably -- i mean, he's a different kind of a guy. he gets very angry. i have people taking my picture -- let them take my picture. we have a photographer that takes my picture, i don't punch him in the face. >> do you think he's serious, that he would quit the industry? >> i don't think he'll quit. no, he's said that before. he does get very angry. i assume it's real anger. but if it's not, it's one of the great consequence of all time because if you think about it, everybody is talking about alec. >> donald, you're a brand guy. here is a guy who has now made allegedly made some gay slurs. he's attacked a female reporter, got in her face and dropped f bombs at her in her face.

how do you salvage this brand? is there a salvage brand? >> he seems to do a lot of commercials, he's on a lot of shows. a lot of people like alec and a lot don't like him. he's certainly doing a lot of work. you may think, steve, that it's hurting him, but he's doing pretty well, i suspect. >> all right. well, it's monday of the let's see what he does today. >> let's see what happens today. that's right. >> all right. donald trump, always a pleasure. thank you very much. >> okay. so long. it's the story so many people are talking about this morning. a routine traffic stop ends with an officer opening fire on a van full of children. what happened here? play by play coming up. >> it keeps getting worse for toronto's mayor. a major decision due today, but first, he's only talking to fox news about what's next

main stream media at it again. the "new york times" comparing the failures of obamacare to president bush's handling of hurricane katrina. shear a quote. the disastrous rollout of his health care law not only threatens the rest of his agenda, but also raises questions about his competence in the same way the bush administration's botched response to katrina undermined any semblance of republican efficiency. so is that a fair comparison? joining us right now is former white house chief of staff, andy card, joining us from college station, texas. good morning to you. >> great to be with you, steve. quick answer is i think it's comparing apples and oranges. katrina was a real disaster, but

we also are jurisdictional challenges because you had a mayor and the white house couldn't do anything with the mayor objecting. we had a governor of louisiana that was a challenge to work with. we had a governor of mississippi that was a joy to work with. so i don't think it's really apples and oranges. i think that the botched response to the obamacare rollout has been a disaster that is really housed within one administration. the executive branch of government and that would be president obama's team and specifically hhs. so this is not a situation where katrina you had the department of defense, you had the federal emergency management agency, homeland security, you had the mayor of new orleans. you had the governor of louisiana. you had lots of different entities and the rules for dealing with a natural disaster are very different than the command and control responsibilities the president can grab and really use to make things happen. the obama administration did not make things happen well. >> i'm glad you mentioned natural disaster.

george bush didn't invent a hurricane, whereas obamacare was invented by the president, his team and the house of representatives under the tutelage of nancy pelosi. >> it was written entirely by their team. it was jammed down the throats of the congress and the people. but i really want people to step back and understand that -- i want people in washington to step back and understand that there are real people being impacted by this debauchle of the rollout. we've got to get together. i wish that the president would make changes in his administration. i hope that they would work to solve the problem rather than just cite other people who had problems and try to blame them. a, i'm no different than that person. this is a real problem for millions of americans and the number of people who are confused right now is probably historically high. >> you know, we've heard so many times, the president didn't know about the web site problems. he was kept in the dark on this and that. is it time for some heads to roll and get some fresh blood in

there? >> it's not credible to me that somebody at the white house didn't know what was going on and things were not going according to plan. i suspect the president even knew. nevertheless, yes, i think it's time for strong new leadership to come in and be leadership that works with other people. president bush, even with katrina, worked very well with a lot of democrats and republicans to try to mitigate the problems. he brought in people like admiral allen and general honoree and don paul to help make things better in louisiana and worked with a lot of democrats from louisiana and new orleans in particular. and president obama should learn from that. >> you would think. andy card, thank you very much. >> thank you, steve. >> e-mail us right now. do you think it's time for fresh blood in the obama white house? e-mail us or facebook us or twitter us. meanwhile, girl power, new numbers about how many women are in the work force. we're going back stage with the hottest act in country music

stopped raining across new york city and surrounding areas. so that's good news. we're seeing quieter weather here. but the storm that produced rain here in new york city is the storm responsible for all of the severe weather. that outbreak occurred yesterday across parts of illinois, ohio. we've been telling you throughout the morning hours there were up to 68 reported tornadoes and there is a chart that i want to show you because that outbreak from yesterday could be one of the top five worst outbreaks for tornadoes during the month of november. national weather service crews will have to head out and survey the damage and confirm or basically not confirm those tornadoes that are reported across many of these areas. the damage really is just heart breaking across many of these states and it's likely many of them will be confirmed. there was already an ef-4 tornado confirmed with winds between 166 and 200 miles per hour. again, that storm out of the area, behind is, we are seeing stronger winds and no state impacted by tornadoes could be looking at wind gusts up to

35 miles per hour today, dry conditions and temperatures that are much, much colder. head back to you. >> thank you very much from the streets of new york city. >> thanks. you wouldn't want to be on this road with this guy on your way to work today. >> whoa! >> spinout caught on camera. brakes, brakes. >> confused by food labels? use by, sell by? what does that all mean? good news dr. al is in the house to break it all down for us. >> first your aflac trivia question of the day. born in 1968, this actor is known for his twice broken shnoz. who is he? e-mail us with the forget answer and you will win brian's book. and you will win brian's book. ♪? ♪ orrible. pays you cash when you're sick or hurt?

the sun comes up again. steve? >> and garrett, it is cold there, in addition to no electricity, it's cold there, right? >> reporter: it's cold. it's in the 30s overnight. that's one of the reasons officials tried to do these search and rescue efforts. they had curfew in places just to keep people who could be trapped there from getting stuck in those freezing temperatures. >> all right. garrett live out in indiana, thank you very much. awful. meanwhile, speak badly about obamacare? get fired! true story and the details are going to have you seeing red. >> then confused by food labels, sell by, use by and best by? not alone. what does it all mean? dr. oz is here next to break it all down. ♪ ♪ not all food choices add up. some are giant. some not so giant.

the answer to the aflac question is owen wilson and our winner is katherine savage from san antonio, texas. you're going to be getting a copy of brian's brand-new book "george washington's secret six." congratulations. >> that's right. speaking of mysteries, has the food in your fridge passed the expiration date? you throw them out based on the labels on the packages. here to separate fact from fiction, dr. oz is here. >> congratulations, elisabeth. >> thanks. my gosh. first of all, i get milk that is like on the date and i get nervous. is that overreacting? what's sell by, use by, best by? >> all the viewers, especially the moms out there were doing crazy things with food and throwing away a lot of food that was perfectly good.

we started looking into this. think about this, what does that really mean if something is a sell by? sell by is a store regulation. stores decide when it looks the best to sell it. use by is really much more about the best quality time to use it by. and then best buy is about taste. so they have no government regulation whatsoever on top of them. there are numbers that don't have a lot to do with toxicity, food that might be bad for you and mops make decisions about whether to throw away the dairy based on the sell by date. >> isn't it safe to say you're throwing it out by the use by date, you're going to steer clear of toxicity? >> it's a mistake because you're throwing away foods that are perfectly good to eat. and some foods, like canned -- the stamp on a canned food is the date it was canned. not the best buy date. >> what about mold on bread? can you take off the moldy part? >> you can't toast it and make

it go away either. once something is moldy like bread or vegetables, you have to throw it away. milk, you have the sell by date. you can go three days past that and still use milk perfectly safe without any risk whatsoever. >> three-day past the which date? >> the sell by date. >> okay. this is on twitter. this is what everyone -- this is hair hot button. >> i'll tell you how to tell when a food has gone bad. nothing to do with the sell by date. three days past milk. eggs and for cheese, you got three weeks past the sell by date. >> really? >> hard cheese really lasts a long, long time. you don't have to worry about it much. bread, you got a week after you open it. forget about use by, sell date. forget that. a week after you open the bread, you got to get rid of it. >> that's when the meter starts. >> yes. oftentimes again -- like sell by date, it's the day it was canned. these goods that are packaged like this, easily stored products, again, years. and frozen products will often

go six to nine months. if you freeze it yourself to make soup, you have three months. if it's a packaged product, you can go about nine months. >> what about meat in the freezer? >> meat is about four months, depending what kind of meat it is. chicken lasts the longest. beef lasts shorter. >> on the meat in the freezer, when if there is ice crystals on it, how can you tell if it's freezer burn? >> usually freezer stuff, you're good to go. i wouldn't throw it away. what moms need to look for and guys, too, cot. color, odor and taste. if the color changed from what it's supposed to be, like the meat changed to a grayish color action get rid of it. >> chicken you can tell easily. the odor, take a whiff of it, you can usually smell. and texture. if it's got the slimy touch. >> can we go with co, 'cause once you get c and o, i don't think you want to taste it. >> elisabeth had a good questioned. can you buy more time with eggs if they're approaching their

useful date by making hard boils egged out of them? >> i don't think so. here is why. the egg itself is well designed. if you don't wash an egg, it will last forever. the hen sits on it for weeks and months. >> but if it's packaged, it's been washed? >> it's been washed. once you boil it, i think you disrupt that membrane even more. you're not giving yourself extra time. >> this is all great information. our thanks to our old buddy, dr. oz. you still doing that tv show? just kidding. i watch it every day. >> the best new health food weight loss on today. >> can you give us a tease? >> it's black soybeans. ratio of carbohydrates to fiber. which is one of the reasons -- we put a bunch of audience numbers on it. it dramatically reduced their appetites. >> find out more about that on dr. oz. thank you. >> love being here. >> straight ahead on this monday morning, president obama getting into campaign mode, pulling out all the stops to bail out

again. this time he's going after a fox reporter. >> question, you want to apologize to her? i asked you a question. >> i did nothing wrong! >> what a gentleman. what set him off this time? that reporter is here live with her side of the story. "fox & friends" starts right now welcome to studio e in the heart of midtown manhattan on a gray, drizzly day. good to have eric polling. >> first time, loving it. >> a busy morning. >> very busy. >> you said this time when it came to alec baldwin. >> i know. every day seems to be another one, you know? >> every day seems to have a couple of them. wait 'til you see what happened yesterday and we'll talk to linda schmidt, our fox reporter here in the big apple this hour. first, we'll get right to fox news alerts. tens of thousands of people across the midwest now picking up the pieces after dozens of powerful twisters turned their

neighborhoods into piles of rubble. >> oh, my god! it's huge! it's huge! it's huge! >> well, a woman captured that video of the storm while she was driving on the highway, believe it or not. >> the tornado outbreak wreaked the most havoc in illinois where at least six people died. you can see the path of destruction it left behind. homes completely crushed like cardboard box, shredded. car windows blown out. some terrified residents turned to hope and to prayer. >> our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. thy kingdom come thy will be done. >> that was a prayer with that tornado out the basement window as the twister barreled toward his home. thankfully, his home was saved, but the neighbors not as lucky. a powerful image this morning as the american flag -- this american flag blows in the wind atop the debris.

crews are searching throughout all the damage to find if there are any survivors. >> that's right. and we will continue the coverage live from where the tornadoes hit throughout the day right here on the fox news channel. in the meantime, let's turn as we do every monday morning, to bret baier, the host of "special report" on the fox news channel. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> so the president tonight at what, 8:15, is going to talk to organizing for action and really it's kind of red alert, red alert, isn't it? >> yeah. a phone call for backers and just the notice going out was interesting to read in that he says, quote, i want to cut through the noise and talk with you directly about where we're headed in the fight for change. clearly there is an effort that the white house, the administration needs to shore up support with the left. as you saw that vote on friday for fred upton's piece of legislation, republicans that the white house was issuing a

veto threat for and 39 house democrats voted for it. they tried to explain it away overt weekend, different democratic leaders saying that was just responding to constituents. but clearly there is a split in the democratic party. >> bret, 39 house democrats probably ones up against tough republicans in their districts voted to jump ship and vote with the republicans. what about the rest of them? what about the other 100 and 60 or so that may not have such a tough fight, you think they'll start to jump ship, too? >> listen, if you look at senator diane feinstein, democrat from california, she signed on to mary landrieu's piece of legislation, that's a little different than fred upton's, but also if you like your insurance, you can keep it, and she's in the bluest of blue states and not up for reelection. so i think you may start to see other democrats do just that. there is clearly a split here. while the president came out and said we should be able to fix this with regulations, there are

a lot of lawmakers on capitol hill who doubt that and think there needs to be a legislative fix. >> as much as some are responding to their constituents, you have those like nancy pelosi and kirsten gillibrand that are still standing strong for this program. listen to this. >> i don't think you can tell what will happen next year, but i will tell you this, democrats stand tall in support of affordable care act. >> they're worried. they're worried. and i think it's not only normal, but our job is to fix these problems. so if they're trying to allay someone's concern to say we're going to make sure there is something affordable and during this transition period where implementation has been rocky, we'll allay your concerns, that's reasonable. >> rocky, to say the least. >> right. listen, they're preparing people to get let down again because the web site will not be fully operational by the end of the month. >> 80%. that's close enough, isn't it? come on!

>> that's going to be called success. and then you get to the part of listen, a lot of these state insurance commissioners are coming out and saying i'm not sure this whole thing, that poof, the insurance plan is back, even though it's been canceled, works for me. and these insurance commissioners were never brought in to the circle. >> from poof to plo ugh, he said yesterday that it was going to be an impossibility for republicans to run on obamacare in the next election because millions of people will have signed up for it. well, that seems like that's the problem. >> yeah. >> 'cause they're not going to like it. >> that's a lot of wishful thinking because at this point if you look forward and listen, we do have a lot of time between now and november of next year. but you look at how many people are affected, the sticker shock of people logging on and saying wait a second, this is going to cost me what? and if the equation isn't right with healthy young people as

opposed to older, sicker people, this is really going to change premiums. the premiums get adjusted by insurance companies in the middle of next year, just a couple of months before election day in 2014. so if it's not the right equation, it's going to be pretty ugly. i just want to say one more thing. thanks to dr. oz, i just had a bowl full of black soybeans. >> and expired milk. >> i'd love to be in your office later today. >> very quickly, you're in d.c let's talk of the politics. a lot of people on the left say you people on the right are just ginning up controversy. i think the american people are really, really concerned about this. so we talked about it quite a bit. do the people in dc, the lawmakers get it how important this is for the american people? >> yeah, because they're getting bombarded. they're getting bombarded by calls and letters and people worried about being in this gap of coverage that they lose their coverage and are they going to be covered by some new plan and they can't get on the web site

it's real. you don't see -- i mentioned it before -- diane feinstein from california, moving like this. she said she had 39,000 calls in early september. that's a lot. even in a populous state like california for somebody to pick up the phone and call their law maker is unique. >> sure. >> we're just too lazy. we're just texting. bret baier, the lean mean, black soybean machine. we'll be watching you today. >> you're making me laugh today. >> on "special report." thank you. >> we'll see you. news time with heather. >> good morning. soybeans are great. i want to try black soybeans. we got shocking new video. a moment a van plunges from the third deck of ralph wilson stadium in buffalo, new york. look at this right here as the guy tumbles down. this is last night's game between the jets and the bills. and it appears that the guy loses his balance while he tries to slide down this railing on

the upper deck and falls on the deck below, landing on another fan and hitting that guy in the head. unbelievable! one fan snapped a picture of the guy who fell as he was taken off in a stretcher. both men taken to the hospital, expected to be okay. this morning an investigation following a deadly mining accident that took place in southwestern colorado. investigators say that two miners died late last night from carbon monoxide poisoning. the gasses are believed to have been released following an incident with explosives in that mine. 20 other people were hurt in that accident. two of them still remain hospitalized this morning. talk badly about obamacare? get fired. washington, d.c.'s insurance commissioner let go after he criticizes the president's health care fix. the mayor of dc gave the commissioner william white his walking papers just 24 hours after white released this statement on the president's decision to let people reapply

for their canceled insurance plan. he said, the action undercuts the purpose of the exchanges, including the district's dc health link by creating exceptions that make it more difficult for them to operate. white said that the mayor's office never mentioned his criticism when he was let go. says the timing just cannot be ignored. he was quickly replaced by a administration insider, chester mcpherson. a turkeyless thanksgiving? turkey powerhouse, butter ball, say there is a nationwide shortage of fresh birds that weigh 16 pounds or more. the company says that that shortage is due to turkeys not gaining enough weight this season, but says they're not -- they're not saying why they're smaller. butterball says there are frozen turkeys available and if you want a fresh one, there are plenty of those, too, but they're under 16 pounds. you've got a house full of people, then you need a couple of turkeys then. >> i think the turkeys are

strategically not gaining weight. >> they're smart. they're getting away with it. who knew? >> it's always something. now the turkeys aren't fat. >> well, blame bush. >> the president says he's got an obamacare fix. peter johnson, jr. says it's more of a stink and he's about to explain that next. then officers allowed to booze it up before work? you can thank their union for that. we're going to explain it all, the shock investigation coming up. you're watching "fox & friends." it's prehappy hour action by the way.

♪ ♪ ♪ >> president obama claimed he had the fix to make obamacare work by renewing those canceled plans. but peter johnson, jr. says it's more like that song, the sting. >> and the 5 million people who lost their policies, they're the mark. the president said last week, well, yeah. you kind of going to get it back. the insurance commissioners, if they want to do it, then you'll get it back and if the insurance companies want to do it, then you're going to get it back. now insurance commissioners are getting fired because they're not agreeing with the plan and some states are disagreeing with it and then he's meeting in the white house with insurance executives and it's a big sting. what's going to happen to these 5 million people? they'll get it back at 30 or 40, 50% more. and the federal government will say, you know, really you should

be in the exchanges and they'll say, yeah, i'd love to be, but i can't get on the exchanges and so am i in violation of law come january 1 or have to pay a penalty? >> 5 million so far. could go a lot higher. you're an attorney, peter. why -- did president obama lie when he said you could keep your health care or doctor, period? >> you need to know people's intentions. he said it 30 something times. he said it repeatedly. he said it after the administrative fix that changed the law. to the evidence as it compounds seems to be an intentional statement. i don't call presidents liars. i have too much respect for the office. but it appears to be a lie. but the bigger issue is not the lie. people can't get treatment based on someone telling a lie or telling a truth. they suffer hash as a result of it. so if there is one lie, is there a second lie? was the second lie last week that yeah, i'm restoring this. the president hasn't restored

it. there hasn't been a policy that's been reinstated as a result. so what's going to happen is there is going to be this kind of combine between the president and the insurance industry where they say listen, insurance industry, i know i screwed up. i know i've messed up your industry. try and do it. if you can't do it, you're going to raise your premiums and make money anyway and i'm probable will he going to blame you. so just sit back and take the hit because you have higher premiums. now, the marks are the 5 million americans who lost their policies. they're the people who are hurt by this sting. >> peter, so they put the law through and it gets voted on in congress, goes all the way through and become law. >> sure. >> legally, constitutionally, i guess. whatever. the supreme court said yes. can he change that law with the signing of a pen, the executive order, saying we're going to delay part of the law and then now more recently saying we're not going to do what we said we were going to do? >> what happened is they passed a law and then passed regulations really in the dead of night, no one knows what

regulations are being -- it's constitutional in terms of yes, you can pass a regulation, yes you can hold back on administratorring the regulation. but is it ethical? is it moral? does it sit with what we think our government should be doing? is it the consent of the governed to say 30 something times that you're going to do it one way and do it another way and then have 5 million people or more hurt as a result of it and then come forward with a fix that's not really a fix that gets people's hopes up? their hopes should be up that their increases are not too great. 'cause that's my anticipation. big increases for these people. >> thank you very much. >> good to see you. the guys from "duck dynasty" going into politics and supporting our next guest and guess what? he won by a landslide. congressman-elect mccal ster joins us from louisiana next. and alec baldwin at it again, this times he's going after -- this time he's going after a fox reporter. >> you want to apologize to her?

>> good morning. thank you for having they. >> was the "duck dynasty" factor the difference maker? >> well, you know, i don't know. when the polls came out after we got into the runoff, i was up by nine points to start with. i consistently led the polls all the way until -- my opponents was still ahead. when willie and jeff and jay did what they did for me, i'm sure it didn't hurt at all. >> if i was you, i would rather have them on my side than against me. i understand you feel that one of the reasons your opponents did not do so well is he ran a bunch of negative ads about you and they blew up in his face. >> absolutely. they were not true. they were taking words out of context. they really were trying to wrap president obama around my neck, which he's not popular in this highly conservative district that we have. you know, it was 100% negative

campaign against 100% positive campaign and i stayed true to my faith and maintained my integrity and my faith was tested a few times, but lord kept his hand on me and we did what was right and the voters of this district are not as naive as some of the political consultants thought. we kind of shocked the world. >> well put there. what is your connection with the robertson family? is it true that -- did willie come by after the election? >> he did. we had just wrapped up with all my tv interviews and everything and i was talking to some friends and family and next thing i hear is willie is here and i turned around and oh, my goodness, it's like grizzly adams walking up behind you. he gave me a big old bear hug and i looked at him and said, what's on your face? he said, they were deer hunting in the district and they killed a deer and he had been in the woods. he still had camouflage and all,

or remnants still on his face. i appreciated him just stopping by for a second. he told me he was proud of me and i told him well, boy, i appreciate it, but knowing i had the weight of this district and making sure i did the right example for my churn, now you -- children, now you wrapped this "duck dynasty" around my neck. >> do you think when you go to washington you might head out there later today or tomorrow, you think you're going to be known as yeah, that's that "duck dynasty" guy? >> i'm sure i will. but you know what? phil, jase and willie and jeff, and even si, they are amazing, true christians and you know what y'all see on tv, and i've known them before any of this all came about, they are some wonderful people. what you see is what you get. if i got to be associated with anybody that's in whatever you want to call hollywood or celebrity world, there is not a finer group of guys that i truly

love and appreciate them standing for what they believe in just like i did through this campaign. >> congressman-elect, congratulations and good luck in washington, d.c you're going to need it. >> thank you. all right. it's 27 minutes after the top of the hour. they were supposed to catch him. instead this musician did a stage dive straight on to the floor. >> oh, no. >> the story about that knit wit is coming up. >> then this trophy huntser becoming the target of animal rights activist after posting her kills on-line. what do you think about this? big game or big problem? we're reading your i mails on that next. -- e-mails on this next. ♪ (anner ♪

differently than anybody else. so we go there, his wife is there, he's not. i approach her and i think you guys have this video. i approach her to see if she has any reaction to the verdict. >> we're going to -- this is the video that he is so upset about. listen. for some reason there is no sound. >> but she says, stay away from me. she's pointing her finger and says, stay away from me. after this, i put the microphone down, she crosses the street, gets into her town car and everything is fine. she later tells him that i nearly knocked her teeth out with my microphone. >> you come maybe a couple inches away from her hand. but you're not even close to her mouth. >> not even close. but she told him i nearly knocked her teeth out. then fast forward to friday morning, robert moses, one of my colleagues, he's there in the morning to do a follow-up story on the verdict from the stalker trial. alec baldwin threatens him twice. at that point our bosses get together and they're like look, we covered the trial, covered the verdict, follow up story, story is done, we're not going

back down there. we end up back down there because a report comes out that he has assaulted a reporter outside of his apartment. the only reason we went back there, because there was a suspicion that he might be arrested. >> new update. >> new update. so we went down there, i had no intention of talking to him, his wife, nothing. we just wanted to get video if he was arrested. >> i saw the video. there almost was an arrest. he went over to the cops and said arrest you. >> right. he wanted to end up filing charges against me because during all of that, and i understand, look, i'm sensitive to the fact they've got a lot of paparrazzi following them. we're not the paparrazzi. we were there for a legitimate news story. she comes out of the building with him and almost kind of when you think about it now, sicks him on me like a pit bull. she points over at me and says that's the woman who almost knocked my teeth out. and then he proceeds to come over to me, not talk to me like a civil human being, but starts screaming and yelling at me the way that he did and then tried to have charges filed against me and then obviously he had no

basis. >> can i make an observation? you held your composure. it was incredible. in the face of him bashing at you and almost like -- bark at you and almost head butting you, you had such composure. were you rattled at all? >> i was unsettled because i did not expect that at all. even as he was approaching me, i thought okay. i'm a woman, maybe he's going to treat me a little differently here. i don't know if you can tell, but i'm on the phone talking to one of my bosses about what's going on and then all of a sudden, i see him coming over to me. so i continued to stay on the phone so my boss could hear the exchange that was going on. >> you had a moment of fear? >> it was unsettling. >> does he owe you an apology? >> not in a million years would i ever get an apology from them. but in this case, i respect him for defending his wife and for believing what she said. that's what a spouse should do. in this case, though, she got it wrong and he got it wrong. in a big way. >> he should never, ever talk to a person, let alone a woman, in that manner.

finding details on the specific plans. we started looking around at health healthcare.gov. at the time it was difficult to find the plan information. they've since made it a little easier. but even with those fixes, it still takes about 18 clicks before you actually see health care plan data. >> right. you're realizing it's not work, not giving you the answers you want. you decide to get together and come up with your own plans. >> yeah. we thought this could be -- there could be a more usable experience around finding and looking at plan data, which is what the health sherpa.com is. type in your zip code, one click, you see health plan data and prices. >> here is the amazing thing. so within seconds, people have been waiting almost months now, waiting to get information off healthcare.gov not working. can't even log on. you now have the ability within seconds to give someone who steps up, puts their zip code

in, information and estimates within their region. it only took you under a week to come up with this site that works? >> yeah. the original implementation of the web site was two to three days. we have since, with the interest, been putting a bit more time in. but the first thing was the second half of a week and we were like, we could probably put this together. the data is already here. it's provided by health healthc. we'll put a better way to look at it. then since then, we've been adding more improvements to make more accurate cost estimates, more plan details where possible. >> michael, this seems kind of simple what you did. i don't code for a living, but why didn't the government use a strategy like yours? >> i think the healthcare.gov was focused on providing an interface for everybody, multiple languages, actually signing up for the health insurance plans directly on the web site. there is a much larger feeter

set that they looked at. we're really focused on reviewing plan data and giving simple instructions on how to sign up for those plans directly through the insurer. >> and giving the consumer the information they wanted right at the top within seconds on a site you designed within days. maybe the government will be calling you soon. thank you for being with us this morning and for an alternative for those who may want the information they desperately need. >> thank you. more "fox & friends" coming up. ♪ ♪ ♪
