political. >> i want to acknowledge trayvon martin and the hundreds and hundreds of kids each year that are dying due to racial profiling. >> all right. that's fascinating. that's not all. katy perry sparking some outrage for an offensive outfit which i believe is japanese-thaoepld according to people in the studio. "fox & friends" starts now. ♪ ♪ >> it's time for "fox & friends." >> live from studio e in the heart of midtown manhattan where i look outside and it currently is 23 degrees. >> right. who did you look for maria or did you look at the sign? >> i looked at the sign across the street at the bank. >> those are the most accurate. the banks are. we actually were outside

yesterday at soccer playing for two hours. they get old enough, it's not considered bad parenting anymore. they pretty much make their own decisions. >> especially if you're out there with them. >> i can still hear the wind in my head. the wind doesn't stop but the controversy doesn't stop swirling around about this deal we seem to have cut, five plus one, six major nations in iran, about their nuclear program. they get to keep it but they stop it when they come to their heavy water reactor plant, the araq plant. they're not going to do anything for a month. the good news is it is not on-line for a year. we'll go through it for a year. >> i'm not an expert. we break this down pretty simple. what they will have to do, they have a commitment to halt enrichment above 5% significantly increasing inspections to maintain stockpile of the nuclear fuel at the current level of six tons. that's what they have to do right now.

what they'll get in return is releasing economic sanctions, six million in foreign exchange. that will be immediately they'll be receiving that immediately, 4.2 billion in oil revenues they had not been able to access previously. >> this is such a good deal for them. it is such a bad deal for us, many people on capitol hill feel. in fact, chuck schumer, the leading democrat from new yo states senate, he said he wouldn't be surprised if in december republicans and democrats on capitol hill get together to come up with more sanctions, which means a gigantic embarrassment for the white house. >> the only reason there are sanctions is because of congress. congress is the one who ratchets this whole thing up on iran. they pushed this thing forward. >> but they're not agreeing right now. they are agreeing on the fact that this is not enough. before we heard those comments, apparently the president got on the phone with the prime minister of

israel, benjamin netanyahu who, quote, said what was reached in geneva was not an historic agreement. it is an historic mistake. >> the united nations has resolutions which say no sanctions will be lifted from iran unless all uranium enrichment is suspended. it is not. they can continue to brew that stuff in those spinners and stuff like that. the backlash on capitol hill was fierce and fast. here are both sides. >> let me first say that it's disappointing to me that iran is still going to be allowed to enrich while they're talking. i would have thought that should be a prerequisite to any kind of talks. we're not asking them to dismantle centrifuges. so that is disappointing. >> we got all the leverage in the negotiation and we let them out of the trap. >> we are very concerned as

to whether iran will live up to even these commitments. >> we're dealing with iran. they are one of the top supporters of terrorism around the world. this is providing them resources and money. we should not take this lightly. we have to have a full dismantling if we want the world to be safer. >> the a.p. does report for the past year secretly we've been meeting one on one with iran in oman for a year on secret talks and we get this limited deal. for the most part you have outrage throughout the middle east because you saw an explosion inside the iranian embassy in lebanon because this deal someone say was about to be cut. in saudi arabia they have gone silent but word is they are saying to themselves and starting to move on their own nuclear program. the united arab emirates is outraged. israel is beside themselves. to your point, elisabeth, what i find is unbelievable and unconscionable is president obama called benjamin netanyahu after he made that statement, not before. that is the first call you make because they are the most directly affected.

when the prefrpblg is saying hold the -- when the prefrpblg -- french is saying hold the line, that is disturbing. you have six months for china and russia to use this opportunity to start once again financing and supplying iran's nuclear program. >> sure. later on in the program before the top of the hour, we'll be speaking with the deputy national secretary advisor who used to work under joe biden. they were selective in terms of the photos they release. you saw him sitting there with the president while they were discussing what was going on with iran. we get to ask him some questions. >> way to go iran, you got a really good deal. us not so much. meanwhile the president of the united states is not at his house, his regular house in washington, d.c. no. he is doing west coast tour, three days of fund-raising, seven fund-raisers in all, including some that is going to cost you $38,000 a head to go in and shake his hand. i understand last night he was at a former microsoft

executive's home. later on he's going to be heading to los angeles. he's going to be at magic johnson's home trying to shake that money tree to get more money for the democrats in congress. last night, in fact, in his public statements, he made, even though this is a legacy thing with this iran deal, you would think that he would think, didn't even mention it. said he was talking about those darned republicans in congress; gentleman get anything done -- i can't get anything done. he wants to get more money to hold the line in the u.s. house and u.s. senate. >> he's focused on the mid term elections coming up and maintaining power there. what some think he should be focused on is the latest delay kicks the spanish community in the gut. apparently the spanish link website for healthcare.gov will not be running until the end of the month. this comes three weeks before consumers need to be enrolled if they want coverage by january 1. a major hit for that community right now who

seemingly can't even begin the enrollment process and are now crunched with a deadline. >> you have more obamacare delays. the next bombshell will probably be thursday. they'll talk about a push-back to 2013. they are going to be pushing the enrollment to three weeks after the election. i think the next thing coming down the pike is who is going to pay for this medicaid expansion. when you see the cleveland clinic is beginning to lay people off, they're going to start laying people off as a direct result of the affordable care act because they have to find some way to make up for loss of $100 million. >> while all that is happening, the president is out fund-raising for democrats. one other thing to your point about the fact that the spanish language component of the not-so affordable care act is not up and won't be until the end of the month is the fact that there are 50

million latinos in this country. they think that 10 million of those could sign up. remember, they just need 7 million to sign up. for them not to be able to sign them up, they go, yeah, you can do it by paper and stuff like that, once again, a little embarrassing. >> heather nauert, welcome to the week. >> good morning. important news from overseas. let's get right to that. brand-new violence eruption in benghazi so far leaving five people dead and 17 people hurt this morning. explosions and gunfire echoing through the streets there. fighting breaking out between armed citizens and members of al sharia, the al qaeda-linked group that claimed responsibility for the terror attack on the u.s. embassy in benghazi that left four americans dead. he would be dead if it weren't for a retired marine who tried to save her life. a woman jumping from the third deck at the raiders game yesterday. the 61-year-old veteran tried to catch her.

welcome back. an article in "the new york times" calling out the obama administration for not being up front about one of obamacare's primary themes saying, quote, the redistribution of wealth has always been a central feature of the affordable care act and live at the heart of the insurance market. >> why don't the white house want you to see obamacare for what it is? the host of varney and company, stuart varney, is here. stuart, you picked this out. i did not dive in this story. you did. what's significant about it? >> the essence of obamacare is redistribution, taking money and resources from this group of people and

giving it, or subsidizing it for this group of people. that is the definition of redistribution. but, wait a second, redistribution is now hitting us all. we're all feeling it, and it is increasingly unpopular. so the white house shies away from the whole idea. >> and the word. >> no, it is not redistribution. it is a wonderful thing. >> for people watching, you say it could impact 100 million people. let's break it down. from rich to poor? >> there's been a huge increase in taxation for middle and upper-income people. that is redistribution. >> to pay for the people who are poor -- >> there is a transfer from wealthy people to not so wealthy people. there is a transfer from young people to older people. there is a transfer from men to women. >> in what way men to women? >> what about the men to women? can you elaborate on that a bit. >> there is a no rate discrimination, so you cannot charge women more

than you charge men. but women are getting more out of this thing. >> like maternity? >> maternity and birth control, for example. men have to pay for that. so there's a transfer from men to women. men end up paying more than women. >> so do the healthy. >> it's one big transfer scheme from this group to that group. that is redistribution. but the white house wants nothing to do that. don't call it redistribution. just call it a good thing. >> bad news for the white house, it's on the front page of the "new york times." >> precisely. you cannot get away from the fact that this is redistribution. that big-picture number is very important. very roughly, very roughly 100 million americans will be paying more and will be having their money transferred to roughly 50 million americans who will pay nothing or a whole lot less through subsidies. >> if the president presented it the way it actually; he would not have gotten a vote. >> i don't think so. had he been truthful from

surprised. we're joined by a former member of the texas state board on education, cynthia dunbar joins us. becky berger stood in front of the board considering this textbook and said you can't have our kids read this. it is one-sided and riddled with air. they said we're going to print it any way with some changes. >> right. what's interesting is issues with errors in textbook is very common. nobody wants to think there are errors in textbook. those error concerns come up all the time. then it comes down to the question of are these factually octoberable errors or -- factually objectionable errors. then the problem comes where is the pool of

information? if conservation make the complaints they are typically deemed as liberal posturing. if liberals make the complaints they are deemed as academic concerns. i'm not surprised they take this position. >> for instance, they do talk about climate change. they talk about fracking as a new technology. what the book says actually contradicts what the e.p.a. has said in the past. >> right. clear, clear errors when you talk about new technology as something that in texas they have been using almost 60 years. the book needs to be updated. it needs to be corrected. the board actually is required to, in order to approve any textbook, it has to be free from errors. but this is the problem that comes along as far as is there indoctrineation through our textbooks more than there is just blanket education because you have viewpoints that can be promulgated through the textbooks.

iranian program. i don't know if that can be done but i think president obama is right to try, put us on this negotiating track, see what we can do, maintain very tough sanctions against iran and maintain the threat of force against iran over the next six months if they don't comply. >> how do you explain the disdain for this deal from schumer to menendez to steny hoyer. they are all either dubious about it or really questioning the wisdom about it? >> there are a lot of members of congress who support it as well but of course there are people who oppose it. i just say this. we haven't talked to the iranians in 34 years. i served in the bush administration. we certainly offered negotiations in 2006 and 2007 when i worked for president bush and secretary rice to the iranians. it's in our interest to try negotiations. but we do that, as i said before, maintaining our leverage over the iranians. we're a lot of stronger than they are. we maintain the sanctions, we leave the threat of force on the table.

we strike a very tough-minded deal. if we can do that, we're far better off than -- >> but this is the >> -- then of course the united states will have to look at its alternatives if that happens. >> ambassador, what about israel? netanyahu said yesterday said this was an historical mistake and israel said they vow they'll do whatever it takes to stop iran. >> i think it is very unlikely that the israeli government, which is a strong, strong friend of the united states, will use military force while the united states and britain, france, russia and china are involved in negotiations. i don't think we're at that point right now. we have to see over the next several months whether this longer-term deal can work and then i think we'll have to decide how else to stop the iranian nuclear program if negotiations cannot succeed. >> people point to what happened in north korea and they saw what happened when you guys tightened

sanctions on their bank, they came to the table and said we're going to start dismantling our program and they didn't. they went back on everything they said and now they're a nuclear power. what makes you think their ally won't do the same thing? >> completely different situation. we still have crippling financial situations on iran. they'll stay on iran for the next six months. i think it is inaccurate to compare those two situations. president obama has done a good job here. >> former ambassador for nato, nicholas burns, thank you for joining us. >> you bet. >> ten minutes till the top of the hour. a store clerk punches out a guy trying to rob a store. then the worker gets fired. that fired clerk here live. >> the ohio state marching band does it again. this time, what a tribute to america.

a gutsy call by a philadelphia store clerk. take a look at this video. so you're going to see this. that's the thief with the green towel on his head and he demanded money. the clerk told him show me the gun and when the suspect pulled out a piece of metal, the clerk, as he approached him, punched him in the face. that's only half of the story. the clerk was then fired. joining us now is the very clerk, brandon. welcome and good morning. thanks for being with us. >> good morning. >> we're look at that video. it looks as though the man comes in and approaches you. he have asks for money. correct? then he's coming at you with a piece of metal as you explained. what was your goal at that point >> my goal was to just simply try and get him out of the store. but once he started to come at me with the weapon, i was pretty much left with no other choice

but to get physical with this guy. i tried my hardest not to, but it didn't work out that way. >> sure. i know you mentioned that you were trying to spent robbery and protect yourself. but you were fired for this. why? >> i was fired because apparently i didn't adhere to the policy on robbery, which is to immediately give up the money. if anybody was trying to rob the store. what separates this from the incident is that he didn't immediately come in with a weapon. he didn't have a weapon on him. so he was talking to me like if it was basic conversation between customer and cashier. in that case, it would be considered as a stop while situation. >> he's coming at you, we see in the video, certainly did you what most people would do. you prevented what could have been a robbery. are you mad about this? here you are forgetting --

forgetting the store and they fire you? where are you there in terms of your emotions? >> yes. i was highly upset when i heard about it. once i had time to actually calm down and think about it, maybe i could have gone about it differently. i'm still a little upset. i thought i was going to be able to keep my job and everything would work out fine. while the corporation didn't feel that way. >> you were coming up on two years with wawa. if they said okay, you're back in there, same situation, same time of day, would you do the same thing again? it seems like you were just preventing the store from losing money. >> yeah. i thought about that as well and i probably would have done the same thing. maybe try not to be so physical, but get him out of the store as quick as possible. it's upsetting that everything worked out the way it did. i thought i was going to be rewarded for it. they would have given me some

sort of compensation, but instead, they let me go. >> in the heart of many, you're a hero that day. we wish you well and hope you find another second job. thanks for being with us this morning. good work. we'll be right back [ male announcer ] it's simple physics... a body at rest tends to stay at rest... while a body in motion tends to stay in motion. staying active can actually ease arthritis symptoms. but if you have arthritis, staying active can be difficult. prescription celebrex can help relieve arthritis pain so your body can stay in motion.

years. you got to take little steps o make a big step. >> we had a great power with the sanctions and the sanctions were really putting pressure on them. now we're releasing sanctions and we're doing lots of things that just -- this is a deal that could be made in total right now. i love the concept of making a deal with iran, but it's got to be the right deal. we had the power and we have the power, but we're out there desperate -- we're so desperate to make it, trying so hard and we're -- you can't make deals that way. so we should have left on all of the sanctions. we should have put more sanctions until we got the kind of deal that we have to get. this will not be good. nothing good is going to come from what just happened. >> certainly someone who agrees with you there is the prime minister of israel. he said today the world became a much more dangerous place and he also stated that this was a historic mistake. >> he's a friend of mine and i agree with him 100%, elisabeth.

it was a historic mistake. and especially because of the fact that we had all of the power. we had everything going. this still could have been a finish. not a deal where we're coming back in six months and start all over again and that's the hard part. this deal could have been a finish. we were so anxious to get something out to the press that this is what happened and it really is a shame. it makes a great lost opportunity. >> you know, the white house is thinking all about the legacy of the 44th president of the united states and certainly i'm sure he would like to think this would bolster it if he does get a deal. but at the same time, it looks like iran will become a nuclear power on his watch. >> well, i think he's got a lot of problems. he's got the obamacare mess, which is turning out to be a total and complete mess and i'm not just talking about the web site. i'm talking about obamacare. people are losing their policies that they love and that they've had for years and now they can't get them. the ones that are getting them are paying two and three, four

times as much. it's a total disaster. i think that's his biggest legacy obamacare. >> to your point right there, i just saw on political, john boehner, speaker of the house, he signed up for the exchanges. his premium is going to almost double. his deductible is almost going to triple. he and his wife now pay $433 a month. they will start paying 802. the deductible will go from 700 to 2,000. he can afford it, donald. but there are a lot of people who can't. >> steve, if you hear some of the numbers being thrown about, he's one of the lucky ones because it's worse for some people. it's catastrophic. nobody knows what's happening and then on top of it, you have a web side of the that's going to be blown up. they have to get a new company and the first thing they should do is immediately bring a billion dollars or more lawsuit against this company from can

did that housed up -- canada that housed up the web site. i'm sure they didn't have great it help from kathleen. but why isn't somebody suing this company? >> you know why? i think things will come down the pike that they changed things at the last minute, that they demanded everybody put their names in right away, then they'll counter suit and expose everything about what perhaps is the imcompetence of the administration and their request for this. >> i'm sure that's true, but as you know, this company has a terrible track record. it's being sued by many others and it has an absolutely terrible track record. how do you allow this to happen? how do you pick a company with such a bad track record to do obamacare? he said he wasn't involved in the web site. how do you not get involved in the web site when that's the track to get to you your goal. >> now the president of the united states today is -- and yesterday is out on the west coast, he's going to meet magic

johnson, the producer of "friends" and doing fund-raisers for the democrats. senate especially. he's concerned that that's on the brink, he could lose that. what about that approach to leadership when the obamacare is in trouble and iran is a major historic or catastrophic deal, what about the wisdom of leaving 1600 pennsylvania avenue? >> well, you know, he's a politician and he does fund-raisers and i wouldn't make such a huge deal over that. but he's done a lot of things over the last few months that maybe he shouldn't have been doing. we have something that's really dying on us. health care in this country is dying on us and people, their policies are being taken away by the thousands every hour. i hear thousands every hour. these are people that love their health care. they were very happy with it. they were paying for it. not complex. now we have this complex monster that will never work. and by the way, it will fall of its own weight. there is no question about that. >> can i get your perspective on something, with this so-called weak negotiation with iran, do

you think it's a reflection upon maybe the weakness that's being portrayed from the white house right now in terms of everything kind of falling apart at the seams? >> absolutely. the white house is not respected. our leader is not respected. i think we just wanted to get any kind of a deal we could get. elisabeth, the hard part of the deal is going to be six months because we have to now go back and start negotiating again and they didn't discuss that? then i see kerry high fiving and everybody is high fiving from our side like -- that sends a terrible signal to the -- if we're showing such happiness, that's showing the other side they can negotiate much tougher on the important things in the next six months. >> the people of iran aren't celebrating. only our government. >> we're celebrating a bad deal. >> all right. donald trump joins us every monday at this time. it is currently 7:11 here in new york city. thank you very much. have a great thanksgiving with your family. >> you, too. all of you. >> we want pictures for next

just past 15 minutes from the top of the hour. four men arrested in new york for their involvement in a disturbing new trend called knockout. new york state legislator is drafting up a new bill to up the penalty for these crimes. a 25-year sentence is being proposed for teens 14 and up who play the game, film it, or even stand by and watch. joining us is a man behind the plan, new york state assemblyman james tedesco. good morning, sir. you're asking for a tougher sentencing here. what's behind that? >> well, the fact of the matter is, these aren't just kids playing some pranks, a little vandalism. these are young people who are thugs, they're cowards, they're sneaking up on people, blind siding them, sucker punching them and not only destroying lives, but taking their lives in many instances. we can't let kids use their youth as a way to get out of a serious and very violent series

of incidents which are happening and continuing to expand. i want to thank fox for broaching the issue. doesn't seem like the mainstream media really wants to pay any attention to it. they seem to have turned their back on this and it is escalating. we have young people who are really gaining kudos in the games they're involved with by counting the number of knockouts they can make on innocent, honest, law abiding citizens. i appreciate the opportunity to talk about a bill i've sponsored to try to mitigate this and deter this violence. >> sure. you do seem pro-active on this. it's not being discussed as it should be. you seem to think it could escalate. what are you proposing here for those involved in a knockout game? >> there are three points to this piece of legislation which i think are significant and will help deter this activity. one, right now we have youthful offender status for many children who are under the age of 18. that really is basically a slap on the wrist. a lot of these kids understand the law. they know maybe they'll get some community service if they're caught or couple months in a

detention facility. we can't accept that right now. there has got to be a serious crime. these kids, if you see the video, they're beating their chest, they're acting like big men. big men should have a big law and a big penalty if they do this type of dastardly crime. the bill says that at any age, you will not be able to use the youthful offender law to have a reduced sentence. this is too serious. this is not breaking windows or slashing tires or a little bit of vandalism. secondly, we've moved the penalty from a d felony to b felony. that means five years at a minimum, 25 years at a maximum. and also they're being cajoled by the gang members around them. they may not be throwing the punch, but they're videotaping it, putting it on web sites, tweeting it. those individuals would know if they want to be part of this, take part in this activity, they, too, would face these types of penalties. so we think it will deter it in two ways. they'll realize there will be a serious penalty. they can't use youthful offender

status to get off the hook. secondly, if they do the crime, they'll spend some serious time. they're going to be in jail for five years at a minimum up to 25. we're going to get them off the streets. look, i have a lot of compassion for maybe the family lives of some of these kids and young people who are doing this, but that can't go above and beyond protecting innocent, honest, law-abiding citizens. that's got to be the number one goal. we have to deal with it. we have to help these kids in some way. obviously they're involved in sociopathic behavior. we've got to try to turn the corner on that. first and foremost, we've got to protect, like the 78-year-old lady who was knocked out or 12-year-old kid last week or the gentleman this past weekend. we can't allow that to happen. this is a serious crime. i think this will be a deterrent. >> do you hope this will be passed? how much support do you have? >> we're excited about it. we've got a primary response from the senate. senator farley, he's been there with the most seniority in the new york state senate.

he's very effective legislator. in just this past weekend, we've got a democrat who signed up on the bill. that's very significant because i'm outnumbered 4-1 in the new york state assembly. we don't have the majority there. this crosses demographic lines. this affects all of our constituents and may affect more of them as it is escalating. >> james. >> we think we have a good chance to pass it. thanks for the opportunity to be with you. >> thank you for being with us this morning. >> i appreciate that. >> next up, another new problem with the obamacare web site. turns out what you isn't always what you get. why those, quote, low premiums they promised are all wrong. and do you hate those annoying robo calls? i sure do. the brand-new way to stop them. we'll tell you next. ♪ ♪

we don't trust iran. we need to verify that in fact they're going to do what they say they're going to do. >> we are very concerned as to whether iran will live up to even these commitments. >> it's disappointing to me that iran is still going to be allowed to enrich while they're

talking. i would have thought that should be a prerequisite to any kind of talks. we're not asking them to dismantle any centrifuges. that's disappointing. >> not everyone in washington is on board with the nuclear deal that iran and the u.s. and five plus one, six overall nations have cut, including those democrats you just heard from. >> so what does this deal -- interim deal give iran? let's talk to deputy national security advisor live inside the white house because tony, outside it's freezing. >> thanks for having me inside. i appreciate it. >> all right. a lot of people have problems with this deal because they can continue to enrich. >> let's understand what the deal does, first of all. it halts iran's program for the first time in a decade. it rolls it back in certain key respects and gives the international inspectors the kind of access and monitoring capabilities they've never had before, including daily access to some of the most sensitive facilities. >> are you saying, tony, it

stops enrichment 100% across the board? >> no, it doesn't. it stops the most sensitive and dangerous kind of enrichment, 20% enrichment, the fastest path to a bomb that they have. that's stopped. the stockpile of 20% goes down to 0 during this six-month period. the 3.5% enrichment, that's at a lower level, that stockpile can't grow any bigger than it is today. the key thing is that the three paths that iran has to a bomb, 20% enrichment, 3.5 with advanced centrifuges and this plutonium reactor that people are concerned about, all of those are stopped in their tracks. >> that wasn't going to go on-line for a year you and only got six months out of it. that heavy water plutonium plant was not going to be ready. >> actually by some estimates, including some israeli estimates, as well as our own, it could have been ready soon. in any event, because the work stops, you have to add six months to that year if and when they get going again on it if we don't get a comprehensive deal.

>> let me ask you this, you mentioned israeli opinion and netanyahu actually said that in terms of danger, he said that what was reached last night quote, was not a historic agreement. it was a historic mistake and today the world became a much more dangerous place. you say? >> it's interesting, right after the deal was announced, the israeli stock market hit an all-time high. so it's interesting that it was received in that way in israel at least by the stock market. but look, israel has a right and is absolutely understandable they'd be skeptical. an iranian bomb represents a threat to israel. we have exactly the same objective, to prevents iran from getting a bomb. there may be tactical differences in how we get there. they would have preferred not to do this first step. we thought it was important to do it because it's such a complex deal to get to the final agreement that we didn't want iran to use the time to talk, talk, talk, and advance its program at the same time. we prevent them from doing that.

>> tony, some people are skeptical, critical. they're going, why now? oh, maybe they're trying to change the subject, obamacare not work out. president's approval at 38%. what do you say? >> i don't do health care, but i think we can figure out a way to insure tens of millions of americans and prevent iran from getting a bomb at the same time. the fact of the matter is, this was growing urgents. iran was advancing down all three lines of activity. we wanted to stop that. we wanted to stop the program and we wanted to see if we could get a comprehensive deal that resolves this once and for all. that's exactly what we now have the opportunity to do. >> okay. all right. tony joining us from inside the briefing room, the deputy national security advisor, thank you very much. >> thanks very much. all right. did mac la more hit an all time low? we'll see what you think about him speaking out at the american music awards via satellite.

threat to israel. we have exactly the same objective, to prevent iran from getting a bomb. there may be tactical differences in how we get there. they would have preferred not to do this first step. we thought it was important to do it because it's such a complex deal to get to the final agreement that we didn't want iran to use the time to talk, talk, talk, and advance its program at the same time. we prevent them from doing that. >> well, i mean, he's saying we got them on holds. isn't that good enough for six months? >> yeah. the critics, including new york's chuck schumer, say the sanctions were working, that they essentially a boot on the throat of iran and that's why iran was coming to the table. so for the administration, that is their argument that they wanted to get the first step and go to a bigger deal. the critics are saying listen, this is giving up too much to get not a lot. >> sure. bret, you mentioned the critics.

on both sides of the aisle there, not agreeing when it comes to obamacare and the president. not agreeing when it comes to this six-months sort of delay of terms when it comes it iran. i mean, the president's goal is going -- i would guess, get them on the same page. but it doesn't seem as though that's likely. >> well, it doesn't seem like that yet. they're going to have to do some work on capitol hill, as much work as they did overseas with some of the ally, including france and others who eventually signed on to this deal. what's interesting, what came out about all of the prep work and the secret clandestine diplomatic talks between the u.s. and iran that happened before the meetings on this deal and all the set-up. i think you're going to see a lot of set-up and work diplomatically on capitol hill to try to keep people in line because there is an anxious

democratic and republican base that wants to move forward with sanctions despite this deal. >> they're the ones who did the sanctions. they're the ones who ratcheted it up. >> bret, if the senators on both sides get together and have more sanctions, that's going to be very embarrassing for the white house for obvious reasons. speaking of the white house, don't you think it's -- you know, some of my friends were talking over the weekend. isn't that curious timing? out of nowhere in the midst of obamacare not unrolling correctly, the president's poll numbers never been lower, then look, john kerry pulls a rabbit out of his hat and changes the subject. >> yes. i mean, you're right. it is questionable timing as far as how much this is sucking up the oxygen in the room and obamacare was taking a lot of front page space. however, they had been working on the deal for a while and it did come together at this time. i mean, they unrolled it at this

point. >> it's handy for them. >> it is handy for them. let's put it this way. >> we know the president went to the west coast, at which time he'll go see magic johnson, you can't really see him because he decided to take off and focus on his businesses. then he's going to see the creator of "friends" and they'll have many fund-raisers over there and he'll also talk about immigration. that timing is interesting. he's going to have a hard time changing the subject to immigration. correct? >> he is. because every day there is some story about obamacare. it's not just the web site anymore. we've gone over that. but the more and more people see the premiums, that's really the sticker shock. i think you've got -- when you've got a white house trying to turn the page a number of different times, a number of different ways, you might have a challenge. immigration is a tough lift anyway. in this current environment with his current polls, it's really going to be tough. >> yeah. you mentioned premiums.

we saw in politico that apparently john boehner's premiums have doubled and it looks like his deductible is going to triple. he's somebody who could afford them. but there are a lot of people who don't have -- they're caught between a rock and a hard place. >> i think you're going to see other stories about this, steve. i think that you're going to see a lot of people questioning what's happening to their premiums and not only premiums, but deductibles. more and more people are going to be checking it out. if they're not getting a federal subsidy, most around the country is a different story. >> bret, just real quick, microsoft did a study. they say mondays around 10:00 a.m. are the most productive times for people if they're going to get something done this week. for bret baier, are mondays at 10:00 a.m. a productive time? >> very productive. it's the "special report" meeting. it's when we finds out what's going to be on the show.

but yesterday, 300 flights were canceled out of here. today the word is that 180 flights were canceled out of here. i would like to give you a look at our luxury accommodations. if you get stuck at dallas-fort worth, at least they do have the cots available and a lot of people need those last night. we show you video of the impact of how many flights were canceled leaving our airport. there is no reports of icy roads, but the roads and overpass are quite wet. de-icing is happening now and will continue until later this morning. we're talking about cannulations to places like orlando, phoenix, chicago, even other texas airports. back out here live, i want to give you a look at the people here today. some flights are leaving. what's canceled is about a quarter of the total flights that would be leaving dallas-fort worth in any given day. so you're wondering, you guys don't have snow. you don't even really have sleet now. why are you canceling flights? according to the airlines, which is who makes the decisions, they're doing it preemptively because some of these people

wouldn't make their connections anyway. they're trying to avoid a ton of people being stuck here on the cots overnight. although some people did definitely get suck here. back to you -- stuck here. >> i got a question for you. my daughter is supposed to fly out of dfw tomorrow. now, if you got to take it tomorrow, will they honor that or they're going to be moving everybody all over the place? >> kicking people off? >> yeah. >> i think your daughter might want to come for thanksgiving at my house. no. they said for tomorrow, those flights are going to stay. those flights are going to stay. however, i spoke to a woman earlier today who said hey, i showed up a couple minutes late and my flight was overbooked. it departed, but without her. she didn't miss her flight. so i would say to your daughter, get there extra, extra early, otherwise we'll take good care of her here. >> i have a broader question. i'd like to know if you could settle a bet. i was at the super bowl. i saw it snow and ice and the people of dallas did not drive well in it. nor did you have any snow

and we've been telling you about the knockout game where people come from behind, complete strangers get punched in the back of the head often. now new york state assemblyman is proposing a bill with harsh penalties for those who commit this crime. >> if they do do this crime, they're going to spend some serious time. they're going to be in jail for five years at a minimum, up to 25. we're going to get them off the street. >> wow. the game linked to assaults in at least six states. elisabeth? >> thanks. meet chandler webb, a bright 19-year-old from the salt lake city suburb who loved boating, basketball, snowboarding and friends. but above all, he loved his family. and he loved his church. so imagine the shock, just days before chandler was set out to depart on a church mission he suddenly got sick and fell into a coma and 28 days later, he was dead. the news only gets worse. chandler's mother, who was by his side until the very end fears he may have been killed

bay common flu vaccine add ministered days before the trip. his mom is my guest this morning. laurie, we are so sorry for your loss. we do thank you for being here with us this morning. >> thank you. >> you know, chandler gets the shot. he's preparing for a trip with good intentions. he's at the hospital with all these reactions. what are the doctors saying? what happens at that point? >> well, he got the shot and he got sick the next day after he got the shot, he got violently ill. he went to one emergency room and wasn't treated and then a few days later he was admitted. went to the next emergency room. the doctors didn't know what happened. what attacked his brain happened so quickly, within 15 hours from within ct scan to the next. there was so much pressure, swelling on the brain, that it crushed his brain stem. i was told that by the head

radiologist. the doctors did everything they could as far as trying to detect this. the one thing they didn't really focus on until the very end and another doctor was the flu vaccination. they checked for rabies -- go ahead. >> they were checking for rabies and other things. we see the image of i believe it's you curled up next to chandler in the bed obviously trying to bring comfort. so they never mentioned the possibility given the timing that this could be the flu vaccine? >> never. i wish they would have. the very first time he went into the emergency, had they asked him then, have you recently been vaccinated, could this have been stopped and not had to go through this. >> do you believe in your heart -- moms have instincts. do you believe that they would have uncovered that it could have been the flu vaccine that caused chandler's condition and ultimately his death? do you think he would still be alive if they went there first? >> yes.

exactly. i do. no doubt. they could have given him steroids. you need to be warned what the risks are and then the medical professions, the professionals, if they would actually consider that. they checked for everything, the cdc, the infectious disease. they tried over and over and i applaud them for all the efforts they did. but the one thing they didn't do was you can't treat somebody once the damage is done. they treated with every broad spectrum antibiotic. it still kept raging. after we took him off life support, we could not touch him. he was hooked up to so many drains and intubated. it was a nightmare. no mother should have to go through that. >> absolutely not. >> no family. >> no family should. no parent should. no child should. >> right. >> certainly you are really an advocate right now for just awareness when it comes to this. you're not against vaccines.

but what do you want people to know about him today and going forward? what do you want people to remember him by? >> chandler was the happiest kid. he always said, this is the greatest day of my life. this is the happiest day of my life. little things made him happy. he was a friend to everybody. he didn't deserve this. his last words before he crashed into his coma was doctor, save me. i want the doctors to save somebody else. i don't want this to happen to anybody. he was so healthy. he was pure. he should have been able to fight the flu. i wish he would have got the flu rather than this vaccination. you know? >> sure. i think every parent out there, their desire is to forget their child. you did everything you could. i thank you for being here today. we all do. we are terribly sorry for your explosion we will remember chandler through your words today. >> thank you.

political on us. here he is. >> the fact that we are in florida tonight accepting this award, i want to acknowledge trayvon martin and the hundreds and hundreds of kids each year that are dying due to racial profiling and the violence that follows it. this is really happening. these are our friends, our neighbors, our peers and our fans and it's time that we look out for the youth and fight against racism and the laws that protect it. >> okay. so we asked you how you felt about turning an awards show all political. we got lots of tweets. >> that's right. tweet from pete said why no mention of knockout games? isn't that also racial profiling? >> by the way, this is from olivia, katy's outfit was not offensive. culturally appropriation is becoming a trendy top hispanic it seems teen-agers and young adults can't wear anything without culture besides their own without being shamed.

have you picked out a present? >> well, i have now. lou, trust fund recipient. >> did the one you warn me about? >> uh-huh. he's the reason we can't have mistletoe anymore. >> i love it. i love all the characters coming together. we asked all your fans to throw in some questions for you. and they did. we have some coming in. >> she has 2 million followers. >> are you kidding me? >> i have a couple. >> can you name them? >> every single one by name. >> here is one, randle, any crazy behind the scenes stories on the set of "good luck jesse"? >> yeah. she's such a great fan. i love randle. we actually -- it's true. we shocked jesse "good luck charlie" two months apart. but it takes place all in one kind of day. so there is this entire

>> what? n it all makes sense if you watched 1970s wrestling. it was okay for a big strong man to wear a speedo and be sweaty. do you remember stan hanson and the lariat? it's all going to make sense. coming up, the u.s. and iran reaching a nuclear deal. but what about the pastor who helped us nab bin laden? he is still in jail. why can't we make a deal for his freedom? peter johnson, jr. is on that next. which one of us can chuck a pumpkin the furthest? the myth busters are here to put that to the test. they've got the little ones, plus something that can go nearly a mile. how many windows will we knock out at nbc before this is all done? >> not enough. >> let's try.

15 minutes to the top of the hour. quick headlines for you. villagers running for their lives as lava erupts from an indonesian volcano. 17 villages and volcano danger zones have been evacuated. an iceberg the size of singapore breaks off its glacier, floating into the open sea. experts say it could eventually cross into arctic shipping lanes. chilly news for you, steve. >> indeed. thank you very much. there is new controversy this morning surrounding the obama administration's weapons deal with iran which lifts economic sanctions in exchange for iran's freeze of nuclear weapon production. but one issue that wasn't even brought to the table, the release of an american pastor. we've been detailing on this

program. the american citizen has spent the past year suffering inside an iranian prison simply for practicing his christian faith. so why did the white house pass on the chance to rescue an american citizen? peter johnson, jr. joins us live. what happened? >> effectively the president who won a nobel peace prize before he waged peace anywhere has effectively led pastor abediney for dead in iran. and so we forfeited any moral superiority in foreign policy or in terms of asserting human rights for people who are americans or not americans in the world. imagine this at home. if you have a relative and they've been taken hostage, captive in a foreign country for pursuing a country message, for being a minister, a person of the cloth and put in a prison and tortured and you have a president that knows about it and has spoken about it and a secretary of state who has

spoken out about it and u.s. senate that has spoken out about it in a bipartisan resolution and then you say, well, i'm going to give back billions of dollars in sanctions. i'm going to allow iran to continue to run these centrifuges, 10,000 of them, and i'm going to forget about the pastor. it's my fervent hope that someone is working on it today. but to do this deal and not have that man walk out at the very same time the deal was announced, it's criminal. >> look, we're talking about iss iran nuclear thing. but you would think he's a tiny little cog in the wheel. do something about him and i know they go, it's just an interim deal. apparently they didn't even bring it up. >> he's not a popular subject. he's not famous. he's not kind of a potty mouth twin. if he was martin bashir or alec baldwin, there would be journalist associations and actors association saying, we must free this man as a matter of artistic freedom!

as a matter of journalistic freedom! here is a man spreading the word of christ who is imprisoned for it and we're not speaking out. and he's in prison still as a result of it. so americans who worry about human rights, for americans and others, israelis and saudi arabians are saying, what has america done with this deal? are we forgetting first principles, including americans who are imprisoned abroad? >> do you think the government would be working harder to get him out if he weren't a pastor? >> unfortunately, i do. the president has spoken out about it. the secretary of state has spoken out about it. but the proof is in the pudding. no results. the pastor is still in jail and the only people who are talking about him are his family, the aclj, and steve doocy and peter johnson at this moment. >> it's troubling. he's sitting there waiting for us and we can't do anything. >> let's save him. save the pastor.

>> no kidding. all right. thank you. >> see you. 12 minutes before the top of the hour. completely switching gears. which one of us here at "fox & friends" can chuck a pumpkin the furthest? the folks from myth busters here to put us to the test. right now, bill hemmer joins us from high above in our sky scraper. >> i'm just glad my car is in the garage for that. >> no kidding. >> good morning to you. more changes coming to you soon courtesy of obamacare. higher rates to employees and that's before you tack on the rising deductible. stuart varney breaks it down for us. what do you think of the iran deal? ralph peters will analyze that in an exclusive first-time look at the next chapter for ground zero here in new york. only on "america's news room." martha and i will see you shortly [ woman 2 ] to carry on traditions.
