>> stop what? >> my hands are dirty. >> mine are afraid too. >> what are you afraid of. >> you're trembling. >> i'm not trembling. maybe it's because i'm a scoundral. >> live for us in los angeles with more. tell us what happened here. when she went into cardiac arrest she was taken to a local hospital. tmv is reporting she never regained consciousness and her condition never improved. she had recently been out promoting a book. she also talked about the affair

she had with harrison ford. when she got the role at the sage of 19, she said she loved the script, but wasn't sure that anyone would go see the film. it turned out to be one of the most famous movie franchises in history. carrie fisher was born into hollywood roilt. people forget that carrie fisher was one married to paul simon. fisher was also outspoken about her proms -- problems included

drugs. even though fisher appeared in other hit movies like shampoo, when harry met sally, her acting took a back seat to her writing career. mark hammill says no words and billie d williams tweeted this. i'm deeply saddened by the passing of carrie fisher. what a career she had. i just watched the first one a little bit ago. thank you. >> president obama says he could

have done what hillary clinton couldn't, defeat donald trump in the election. he says he could have persuaded america to give him a third term. >> i think if i had run again and articulated it, i think i cou could've mobilized and won. peter, what did the president-elect have to say about president obama's claim. >> the president-elect is now just reminding president obama something he reminded voters of a lot in the long campaign. he said president obama said he thinks he would have won against me? he should say that, but i say no way. just leaving isis, o care --

>> they have been talking about the transition and the way things are going in the world recently. there is no word yet. a third obama term impacted their relationship negatively. >> all right, so there is another issue big in the huz right now. he is talking about the trump foundation. how is the president-elect now addressing that? >> he is not addressing that investigation specifically. he said he wants to shut down his charitable foundation. new york's toernl general says he can't do it, whether or not money that was donates was used for political or personal

purposes. he posted "i gave millions of dollars to djt foundation, raised or received millions more, all of which is to charity and the media will not report. never paid fees, rent, salary, or any expenses. one of the big knocks against mr. trump from democrats, when he made this announcement, that was he was trying to bury the news by announcing it on christmas eve, but that seems to have gone away. >> peter, thank you. for more on all of this, let's go to simon rosenberg. always caleb, a republican campaign consultant. gentleman, thank you, both. let's start with you, simon.

democrats can't get over this loss, what is going on here. >> as better said, this is a little bit of a hypothetical, but it is a basic do noproblem. so i think that both parties, neither party is where they want to be, right? we don't have as much power as we want or voters have who they want. >> we're talking state and also federal seats and governorships as well. what do you achibt that to? >> i think is a misunderstanding

to how it is how they're living the bulk of the voeks came have very large states. the progressives, but he did that. he campaigned with hillary clinton time and time again. he harticulated those principal and he lost. >> he was speaking with the congressional black caucus late last year, and he said if you don't turn out to vote to hillary clinton,ly take it as a personal insult to my legacy. >> he is more popular now than --

>> yeah, but it is not fair, he has a higher pool rating than ronald reagan did at this point, and he is 20 points higher. she has gone out well regarded as president. the country is clearly better. barack obama was not on the ballot. at the end of the day it was her campaign to win or lose. >> so are we willing to admit it was not russia or james comey that lost hillary clinton the election. >> i believe, and i said this on the air, i think it was a combination. the comey stuff had an impact on the election. >> what if it were a republican.

like michelle obama said, people have no hope now. what if it were no way around. if you were looking at republicans needing to reprioritize, but the truth is if you look at the past eight years, governorships were held by 2018 been we care about jobs, ba obama care is failing and that is what they are running on. they went for someone more real. zllt leaders of the u.s. and japan coming together today at

pearl harbor. it plunged the united states into world war 2000 two. it is in honolulu, hawaii. tell us about the gathering, how long have they been planning it? >> we talked about this on numerous occasions. just leading up to this, i think it is remarkable when you consider the history that we're marking here today. and the american forces at pearl harbor, but this is a day of remembrance and reconciliation propelling into the u.s. as the americans fought back on that fateful day.

the president joined the prime minister for a ceremony. we were there and it was a powerful day to be sure. now for prime minister abe marked the past and a hopeful future between the two nations. >> i think the alliance is so strong and had so much support, i think they will recognize that. >> a relationship born out of con flikt, but they were blocked into a very close and enduring friendship. >> we understand there will not be an apology. thank you. >> the intense fallout, abstaining on a u.n. vote.

we'll have a live report coming up. what happened to all of the christmas cheer out there, a outbreak of violence from coast to coast. all of this mayhem, is it being coordinated? we'll look at that when we come back. >> right when i was getting in, they were like everybody get back. they were putting the gate down, and i was like oh my god, what's going on.

welcome back, rising tensions between the united states and israel. benjamin netanyahu lasting the decision to ab stain from voting at the united notions, withholding a veto and then allowing it to pass. we have a look at the story and what officials are saying about it now, hi, john. >> heather, yes, a senior official told me early near he personally has seen "sensitive information and material proving, without a doubt, that the obama administration was behind this resolution, how they orchestrated it and crafted it.

that is the stance that benjamin netanyahu continues to take on this, calling it a shameful ambush, and that israel will hold their ground. they say some of the settlements are moving forward. that said though, the prime minister in respond to all thof is taking option. he recalled the ambassadors to ten countries that voted in favor of the revolution. now president obama's deputy national security advisor said that the accusations are false

and they it is no secret they have concerns. so will they continue to take a hard-line stance and approach on the issue? >> is there anything coming in the future before president obama leaves office. live for us in jerusalem. thank you. >> thank you for joining us. explain to our viewers here why we should care. why is this vote so important? >> well, it is very important and it is very irrational. long standing american policy for american interests. this is very irrational hot only

because staffing an ally in the back sends a very bad signal to any current or future ally, but the united states has always today up for leadership positions, not allowing the u.n. to come in. they are very corrupt and cynical, and they never brought any peace here in the middle east. so by allowing the un to take over, it is certainly leaving the u.s. with less prestige and lev advantage. >> think of some of the nations over there involved in the united nations. what do you make of that? >> that shows the real moral

character of the -- voting against any western values, and supporting dictators like assad. it far super seeds the resolutions against iran, rak, and any other dictatorships around the world. >> let's talk about what this looks like going forward. do you say it will lance late, what do you think it will be? >> as i say, it's not only upsetting to israelisy, i think it hurts lip all over the world.

pretty much the same resolution was vetoed by the united states. and they said not only is the un not the right forum, but it will harden the positions of parties. >> why do you think if the palm administrationment today do this. they're saying it will make peace tougher to achieve. >> slously, because it is so incomprehensible. it was not a rational decision, but irrational, and i quite frankly cannot explain. >> thank you for joining us this evening, we'll keep a close eye on what happens next.

he allowed a simple majority, to all federal judges, all cabinet positions. everything but the supreme court, and obama care. you can also take it away through reconciliation. the challenge is, now, that what are you going to replace it with? that technically means 60 votes. i would not be surprised if they changed it to a simple majority. how will that go over with the american public? >> they can't, he changed the rules. the nominees don't even need to produce tax returns. they can go through the motions and the hearings, but they have no authority to top it. >> we'll keep watching that one, i'm not sure the american public

would like to see things go down that way. i want ask you about the incoming press secretary at the white house. he was talking about trump, and trump using twitter, and he described it in an interesting way. >> i think it will be something never seen before. he has a direct pipeline to the people. and i think that allowed mif to add an limit of conversation that never occurred. >> he has a direct pipeline to the american voters, it seems to be working well so far. >> that's the whole point, we had other presidents that used the radio, now she using socie using social media.

the media is not going to give him a fair shake. they're very upset and i'm glad. >> as a journalist, i know you can appreciate that because you spent time at our shop, we need to be able to quickly fact check and you can't fact check a tweet that goes out. >> i can't disagree with that. hopefully they will have a check and balance. one bad tweet could really spark an incident. i'm hopeful that he will use it, and use it in a very productive manner. she going to address a real concern out there instead of justly willy nilly. >> let me talk to you about the

inaugural address. it is being described as dreaming big, what would you like to hear? >> i want to hear how we put america back in terms of having our allies trust us and our foes fear us. i want to produce energy and the like. i want to be feared. i want to be the leader in all of these areas and i think we can do it and i think that is a good thing and that is what the american people elected him for. >> we'll see you back here in new york, and i heard that your daughter could be singing at the inauguration. read that in one of the local papers. >> thank you, yes, she is doing great. thank you so much. >> president-elect trump tapping a veteran as his chief homeland security advisor and giving him elevated status in the white house bureaucracy. say they thomas bossert will

getting and why. >> we know they're no friend to the u.s., and certainly not family, but they're getting 50% off. that sounds nice for jeans, but for commercial planes, that is tens of millions of dollars. it is 80 planes. $17 million, but now tehran is saying they were able to haggle their way to a half priced deal. on sunday, iran's deputy transport minister says considering our nature, the purchase contract is worth about 50% of that amount meaning iran could now pay less than $10 million for the deal. >> and by the way, are they civilian aircraft? >> commercial aircraft. the fleet is very outdated here and that was one of the key

points in the nuclear deal. boeing has not said anything since it came out on sunday, but these tweet discounts are pretty comment for some manufacturers, particularly during down times. both of those manufacturers have signed massive contracts with iran and those deals, those were some of the biggest economic opportunities, and it was a key bargaining chip repeatedly used to get them to the table. >> how is it a good idea that they might want to sell iran aircraft technology, for example, while they continue to fund a missile program that threatens our allies of the region and the united states. >> i think it is a good example of how their diesire to reengag, got them to make a lot of
