>> hundreds gathering to hear the pontiff give his year-end message at st. peters ba cill b. calling on people to embrace tnd derness and urging leaders to do more about youth employment. those are some of the headlines waking touch 2017. paris is so frightening. >> you want a lot of hope for the new year and a lot of us do. there's new leadership in this country, but you can't undo the damage that has been done and they manifest them right away. >> it's a brutal year. hopefully we can turn the page on 2017. that's what donald trump was trying to do in mar go lag go. wanted to give clarification on the russian hacking scandal, what's going on there.

he revealed something interesting that we're going to learn about something on tuesday or wednesday of this week, saying i know something, sort of a big reveal. listen to what he had to say. >> i just want them to be sure because it's a pretty serious charge and i want them to be sure, finance you look at the weapons of massive destruction, that was a disaster and they were wrong. so i want them to be sure. i think it's unfair if they don't know and i know a lot about hacking and hacking is a very hard thing to prove, so it could be somebody else, and i also know things that other people don't know, and so you cannot be sure of the situation. >> you know what other people don't know? >> you'll find out on tuesday or wednesday. >> it's so interesting and so president elect donald trump. he always kind of leaves us for us wanting more. he said tuesday or wednesday of next week, but hard to know what he's referring to here. is it something to do with the

russians, something separate from that? >> third party? the report we saw last week was vague. it anything, it happened the door for third parties to have done the hacking. the open source code in the report is openly available, not just owned by the russian government, anybody can use it. >> evidence has been very, very thin and absent evidence, you get speculation and finger pointing and so far, it feels like a lot has been politically motivated, not saying our intelligence communities is politically motivated. there's something who do great work, but when this white house is looking for a reason to discredit donald trump and they can point to the russians easily, then you have a press willing to regurgitate it no matter what, then it leads to frustration and donald trump saying, wait, let's see, let me gather facts and i'll reveal them. we don't know what he knows but he knows something. >> i think it's something both sides can respect, to say we don't want to happen with the

wmd, so you don't know as much as the american people and you leave their hanging with questions after that i want to it's good the facts, know what i'm dealing with, i want to communicate with the american people e do know. it's something you can respect. >> we have a lot of facts on mariah carey. >> i didn't know you were going there. >> the new york post laid out yesterday, i was stunned by this, we know that she has this big entourage. she's a bit of a train wreck, can't show up on time. her staff had to call dick clark production to find out what time the ball drops. we helped her with that. with and drops at midnight much last night, this amazing performance, she's in times square on abc doing this amazing performance, and it's an appropriate end to 2016. watch this. ♪ music

chance for tornadoes. we could watch a tornado outbreak for monday here across parts of the south, so get ready, especially in throughout mississippi, could see a large tornado or two. that's one thing. the other thing about to happen is the temperatures are about to change a lot. you see a little bit of pink returning tomorrow and by tuesday, minus three in billings, miep news four in fargo, then cooler temps to the south by wednesday t will feel like winter, it's january. >> it makes sense. >> it's appropriate. >> it's time that time of year. >> you looked so cold yesterday. >> i was slivering. i was maybe a ten degree windchill up there. >> nice. >> you're a trooper, rick. >> you showed. >> and i wore my fancy coat instead of my warm coat, which was the wrong choice. >> to honor you being in the studio, we'll show you mariah carey clips all morning. >> >>: critics never thought it would happen. is the mainstream media turning

to severe chronic plaque psoriasis. so i made a decision to talk to my dermatologist about humira. humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. in clinical trials, most adults taking humira were clear or almost clear, and many saw 75% and even 90% clearance in just 4 months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. ask about humira, the #1 prescribed biologic by dermatologists. clearer skin is possible.

good 15 minutes after the hour. welcome back. president obama under fire for a unlikely credit, the mainstream media, even rolling stone casting doubts about his claims that russia hacked the election. they wrote this, like the wmd story, there's a deal of salesmanship that is pushing the purpose s it fair? adviser to george w. bush, brad blakeman and jessica. good morning. >> good morning. happy new year. >> going into 2017. brad, is this a fair comparison? >> it is not. it's not a comparison at all but rolling stone is a left publication. if they're going to bash obama, you have to throw a bush in there, captain be obama all my himself. obama played russian roulette and pew tip was claying chess and got check mated because he expected putin to take advantage

of the fact that we expelled diplomats and created sanctions, and putin didn't take the bait. this has nothing to do with wmd. as a matter of fact, if we go back to that story, it wasn't about wmd at all, it was the sanctions on the war. the fact is we didn't find it. it doesn't mean he didn't have it. we knew he had it because he userred it on the kurds. this is a false acquisition. >> jesse, your thoughts? >> i would like proof it's important to see that if we have 127 intelligence agencies that says that the russians interfered with the elections, you have john mccain saying it's april act of war and want the investigation going in congress before donald trump is sworn in which is important on a bipartisan level. this is about our national security and it's concerning. we're not at a wmd level at this point, but 17 agencies show us something, i think it's

important at this point then could haunt obama going forward that this is one of the final things that he's doing when he's leaving office. >> that's exactly what some in the mainstream media are saying, including the rolling stone magazine. they said if the american security agencies did have a smoking gun evidence that the russians had a organized campaign to derail the u.s., but president obama expelling a few dozen diplomats after the elections, seems like an oddly, weak, ill timed response. >> it is. if anything, it shows the enepness of the president. obama's job is a smooth and orderly transition of power. it's up to donald trump as the incoming president to establish a relationship with russia and do whatever is in the best interest of the united states with regard to what they had done or not done during the national election. it's not up to obama because obama is gone in a few days. >> what information do you think protect trump has? he says he's going to reveal it

next week. >> maybe he'll tell us who the 400-pound man is hacking everything. >> donald trump knows a heck of a lot more than he did before he was president, and i believe donald trump is going to act in the best interest of the united states when he is the president, not now. he doesn't have the power to do it, but certainly what obama did to putin does not hurt putin. >> taking a step back for president elect trump to say, look, we have to figure out what's going on here, but that's what he says about the muslims and everything, so yes, he's picked up in tidbits of information since the election. >> not tidbits, he picked up a lot. >> we don't know what's going on with the computers. we have a president elect who doesn't use the computer. he talked about his son and the cyber security and passwords. that's not how i want a president talking. >> >>: i trust donald trump's judgment and i believe he listens to the experts he's brought to government or will bring to government who are the best of the best. it's clear his point so far have been that people who have been

very successful -- >> in business. >> they're bottom line people, they're doers, they get things done in a town that is dysfunctional. i think the chaos that will be brought on washington is good, it's healthy and what the american people want. >> we have to leave it there going into 2017. thanks s so much. happy new year. >> happy new year to all of you. >> one of donald trump's greatest enemies in the media is hot water this morning. the story that just blew up in the washington post, that's straight ahead. and new year and new movies. we have wrapped up 2016 and now kevin mccarthy is joining us to say hello to 2017's most anticipated films. there he is. we'll see you soon. ♪ music as soon as i left the hospital after a dvt blood clot, i sure had a lot to think about. what about the people i care about? ...including this little girl. and what if this happened again?

i was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me? so i asked my doctor. and he recommended eliquis. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. both made me turn around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily ...and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding. both made eliquis the right treatment for me.

ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you.

>> we're back. quick headlines all caught on

camera. video showing kids crushing in an escalator. don't worry, they're all okay this morning but the terrifying ordeal unfolding in russia. one of the students stumbled at the bottom, starting a chain reaction as classmates pile on top of each other. a major fail for a group of backpackers. whoa. as you can see, a suv rolling off of the back of a barge, plunging into the sea off of the coast of australia. helpless onlookers standing tbhi total shock. luckily, no one was inside that car at the time, but the tourists phones, passports and debit cards are long gone. that's terrible. >> what happens when you forget to put it in park. the u.s. is all ready on track to surpass the white house goal for refugees omitted in 2017 and

now we know where they're ending up. look at this map. right there's it's clear, they're being pushed into the heartland with nebraska of all places receiving the most refugees per capita. but why nebraska? joining us to help answer that question is the staff write wetter federalist. good morning, brie. break it down for us. >> good morning. >> we're surpassing the goal of the white house for the number of refugees and they're headed not to washington, d.c. of new york, but nebraska. why? >> right. well, i think our leaders have insulated themselves from the consequences of their actions. i think people who live in washington, d.c. and make the laws and decide how many refugees come in are sending them to neighborhoods where they don't have to deal with them, right, and this isn't anything new. in 2016, washington, d.c. took in exactly zero refugees. and when they did come to the neighboring state of virginia, they didn't come to the suburbs like arlington or alexandria or neighbors fairfax county, they got sent off to areas like

roanoke, where the medium income is much lower than the national average. so i think it's clear that they're quarantining themselves from the consequences of this. they're separated and far removed. >> so a distant capitol are telling us what was good for us, but not willing to impose it on themselves. i don't know if we can, i don't know if we can put the map up or not. why nebraska, north dakota, idaho? is there something about these states or places, governors or reasons why these are chosen, or is this the federal government saying hey, you're taking them? >> well, the correlation between those states specifically is that they all overwhelmingly voted for donald trump and you know, obviously, there's a difference between correlation and causation. i'm not saying that the fact that those states voted for donald trump means that now the federal government is retaliating or anything like that, but i think it's interesting that we're seeing this kind of trend and this kind

of phenomena happen. >> and these refugees, where are they coming from for the most part? are they middle eastern countries, syrian refugees and if so, do you have concerns all ready of a integration of what needs to happen? >> right, exactly n those states in particular, the ratio of refugees per citizens that are all ready living there is rather high. like in nebraska, i believe it's somewhere 26 refugees per a hundred thousand american citizens, and i think that our legislatures need to understand the risk associated with bringing in refugees from syria, which is that map that you were specifically talking about, specifically deals with syrian refugees and our country is the only country on the planet where our national identity is not define bid our -- but by our thoughts and our ideas. so i think it's important to make sure that people that are coming into this country, whether they're refugee or immigrant, really do love

america and want to be full americans in every sense of the word. >> brie, such a great point. america is a social contract and we need everyone investing in that. if so, we'll be successful, if not, we'll be like europe and elsewhere. brie payton, thanks for your insight. >> thank you. >> the german chancellor, angela merkel, had an epiphany, islamic terrorism is a real threat. her answer is we need more compassion to end it. for all of those people who said 2016 was a terrible year, they obviously been watching this show.

at a new year's celebration inside a packed turkish nightclub. >> jackie ibrahim live with this story. >> a tragic start to the new year in istanbul, turkey. a terrorist believed to be seen on security cameras shooting his way inside the nightclub, bullets ricocheting off of cars, the policeman outside the gate shot and killed. once inside, the attack opening fire on an estimated 600 people inside. the chilling gunfire caught on video. [gunfire] thirty-nine dead, -69d injured with several fighting for their lives. cameras inside appearing to show the attacker wearing a santa claus hat, walking through debris. it's believed he used a long barrel weapon and a smoke grenade to carry out the ms. scer. it's unclear if the shooter

acted alone and so far, no one has claimed responsibility for the attack which both the u.s. and turkey are calling terror that shooter is still on the loose, but we'll keep you updated on that manhunt all morning long. back to you guys. >> thank you, jackie. >> a sad reminder of the world we live in as we turn to a new year, believing to turn a page, there's still radical islamicest who want to kill people. >> we've seen it play out. >> angela merkel and her new year's eve address last night, unfolding on christmas day in berlin with the shootings that unfolded here, and she said, look, i still believe in this open door policy of allowing these refugees to come in she was basically disheartened that someone took advantage of the system she said. she said we took advantage of the safe haven that we provided for them, the services to help these people and they turnaround and fire back at glus yeah, it's part of my new year's tradition

that i always listen to angela merkel's new year's address. >> thank you for dhoog. >> she talked about defeating radical islam with compassion, and more openness and boarders, which to voters around the country and around the world, it seems delusional. you can recognize if it's islamic terrorism, but your solution is not to make sure that people that come to your country want to be there or invest in your country. instead, we have to be more compassion for people who invade us. >> and trump gets slammed for tests to study who these people are who are coming into the country. taking them through a procedure about who these people are who we are letting in. this is one of president obama's closest allies. we know in the next weeks, a segment we did on the show, about where these refugees will be coming in the united states. >> this is a challenge, at same time that we're dealing with russia and the hacking that will continue to be a serious problem in 2017, and president elect donald trump spoke about this

yesterday. he came out not iming to talk and he did. he said he knows things that no one else knows and only the way that mr. trump can do. he said he'll reveal it maybe mid next week about the hacking. who knows what he's talking about here. let's take a little bit of that sound. >> i just want them to be sure because it's a pretty serious charge and i want them to be sure, fun look at the weapons of mass destruction, that was a disaster and they were wrong soirks want them to b, so iwant. it's unfair if they don't know. i know a lot about hacking and hacking very hard to prove so it could be very hard to prove. i also know thing that other people don't know, so they cannot be hur of the situation. >> you know what other people don't know? >> you'll find out on tuesday or wednesday. >> no one here thinks that russians and vladimir putin are our friend or are downplaying this. what you want is evidence. clayton, you very strongly pointed out over the last couple of days, what's been release sod far is almost laughable.

we need to see evidence if we're going to understand what russians may have done to try to inter fay with the process, finance the president elect has new information, he's getting briefings that none of us have access to, it would be interesting to see that. >> he gave us a little bit of a lesson on hacking and if you don't want your e-mails to be hacked, don't use the computer. also interesting, you know president bill clinton has never read an e-mail in his life or something like that. >> he wrote one. i think he was the first president, maybe i'm wrong about this. maybe bill clinton was the first president to write one e-mail. >> i wrote the first one, i'm done. >> i'm ahead. that's a great point. this, you know, the digital tracks that are out there. so he's sort of being made fun of, president elect trump force talking about if you don't want things to be hacked, just write them down, hand them to a courier to deliver to the person. >> just like the old days. >> just like the old days. take a listen to what he has to say. >> if you have something really important, write it out vn it delivered by courier, the old

fashioned way because i'll tell you what, no computer is safe. i don't care what they say. no computer is safe. i have a boy who is ten years old, can he do anything with the computer. if you want something to really go without detection, write it out and have it sent by courier. >> i do think this is smart advice. when you see both sides of the political isles, republicans and democrats, agree hag hacking a serious issue moving into the new year, you know it's real. >> court youcourier companies ay because their business ent with up. it makes us more vulnerable, but as they always do, the mainstream media takes him litly and goes bonkers over it. a couple of headlineses. donald trump wants couriers to replace e-mail. donald trump says no e-mail is safe, wants couriers to replace e-mails. he's saying when it's sensitive, maybe you want to be careful of how you transmit.

>> not to put words in his mouth but i think what he's also saying is when you're connected to a network, you have problems. when you're connected to the net, you have issues, just like the intelligence agencies, they're not connected to the worldwide web. they're barricaded, protected, so they only communicate with the servers in those computers. >> even the former head of cia, petraeus, how e-mails end up ruining careers. it's something that everybody needs to be aware of and focused on. it's good advice as we move into a new year in 2017. we have other headlines to get to, starting with this. we've been talking about russia. in just hours from now, a plane is taking off from virginia to moscow with 35 russian diplomats and their families onboard. the diplomatic showdown intensifying by the hour between the white house and moscow. the president imposing sanctions and ordering them out of the u.s. for cyber tack hacking. vladimir putin choosing not to

respond. instead, seeing how russian relations develop under the trump administration. a suspect wanted for killing a police officer is now dead after an hour's long manhunt. police in pennsylvania shot and killed this man, jason robison, he was armed and barricaded inside a house in pittsburgh. he's accused of killing 23-year-old officer landon weaver. twisms was a fui lent year for police officers, 63 killed in the line of duty by gunfire, i highest in five years. trump administration search for the v.a. secretary is getting more intense as two top contenders drop out. a white house report ert said that dr. toby cosgrove could not take the jop because i could bt get out of his duties of the cleveland clinic. a businessman has withdrawn his name due to health concerns. our own pete hegseth and former senator, scott brown, are still up for that job. cities around the world lighting up the light sky with fireworks

it last night, send us pictures. >> people are awake and watching us. >> they are? >> yes. >> how do you know? >> twitter. i've gotten tons of messages, we're awake, we're watching so acting like it. >> start doing television. >> he'll start giving an effort to this show. here's the temps. chilly across the far northern plains, it will get colder. show you that in a second. we have one big storm across the south with flooding, aparts the central gulf coast, get ready because business storms are coming that way. that's apart of this system across areas of the southwest. later today and tonight, that moves in across texas and we have a severe weather threat. this is going to be during the late night hours into the morning, mostly a very strong wind and hail threat, but we can't rule out a tornado or two, especially towards the morning. and get ready tomorrow, a much more significant tornado threat. january 2nd not usually when we see severe weather, but we have a to enthreat across parts of the south, so folks need to be

watching. >> >>: thank you, rick. >> president obama making big claims in his final address of 2016. >> we turned recession into recovery and put more people back to work than all other major advanced economies combine. >> really? okay. millions of americans though beg to differ. we're going to fact check these claims from that video next. >> once again, my favorite story of the morning, mariah carey made sure to end 2016 with a bang and a bit of a leg dip. >> wow. >> just flip me where put these monitors on. it keeps getting better. we'll breakdown this horrible performance when we come back. i love it.

>> president obama touted his legacy yesterday in his weekly address. saying that he's not going anywhere and that he's going to, quote, work to add van the policies of the last eight years, but do the american people want more of the same? here to discuss is president of the media group junior cell fel

low at the kings college in new york city, scott. thank you for joining us. >> happy new year. >> happy new year to you, too, sir. we'll jump into this. before looking into the new year, we're looking backward to what president obama is talking about his legacy. the first thing he talked about was economic recovery. here's what he had to say. >> we turned recession into recovery, our businesses have created 15.6 million new jobs since early 2010, and we've put more people back to work than all other major advanced economies combined. poverty is falling. incomes are rising. 20 million more americans know the financial security of health insurance. >> all right, scott, sounds pretty good. >> it sounds great. this is a president who came in promising hope and change, i believe he thinks he delivered it, but the voters don't agree. his party lost 958 seats in state legislatures tur during his tenure, more than any other president in history, three types as many as george w. bush. this is a situation where voters

consistently rejected his economic policies and especially obamacare. by the way force a real point of comparison, the best president in my lifetime, ronald reagan gained six seats in the state less late sure. >> those graphics we saw, this he were lost of seats. >> lost of seats. >> but he gained a few. >> that's right. we're talking about the policies and tenure of the obama administration have put the republican party in their strongest political situation since the 1920s. that is not an endorsement of the policies. >> especially economic. >> right. >> speaking of strong positions or not strong positions, this is what president obama had to say about america's role in the world. >> we brought 165,000 troops from iraq and afghanistan, and took out osama bin lad defense. through diplomacy, we shut down iran he's nuclear war program, opened up a new chapter with cuba. almost every country on earth sees america stronger and more

respected than eight years ago. >> i don't know where he gets that claim, but the american people don't agree, they say we're in a weaker position than a year ago. >> 66 percent say less respected, #% less respected, that's bipartisan right there. the third promise he made was to continue his own policies. take a look. >> as i prepare to take on the more important role of citizen, know that i will be there with you every step of the way to ensure that this country forever strives to live up to the incredible promise of our founding. >> >>: other presidents have faded off and left the folks behind them to do the job. he's sticking around. >> it's a big mistake for president obama and his own legacy to stick around. the best way to have your legacy to improve is to disappear for a while and hope that history looks at it differently. however, the american people are looking for a change. this doe not want to continue his policies and i think the reason, the challenge, is the reason that 47% more

conservative policies going forward is the ideas he talked about. the incredible prop misses. what most americans thinks thate should have a right to live our own lives as we see fit, so long we don't interfere with anybody's right to go the same and that's very difficult to accept for progressive politicians who thinks that the government should run our lives. >> that's a great point. we think about the economic aspect of the elections and jobs there's a cultural undercurrent about this. they want to love the country and believe in the freedom. >> we were founded on freedom, liberty, and self-governance. we use our freedom to work in the community and have a better world. >> happy 2017. >> happy 2017. >> all right. coming up, president elect donald trump making new year's eve great again. we'll explain. some inspiration. do you need some for 2017? while you were sleeping, the pope delivered his mass for the new year. our own father john is here. there he is with abby with a message directly at young people around the world.

here, for example on sixth avenue, fifth avenue, and the day after christmas, everything is done. we're celebrating salvation and that's worth veb braiting all year. >> part of the resolution is how do you follow through on the resolutions you make, faith or others wii? how do you make sure it continues into the into you year? >> start by telling people what you have done, the resolutions you have made. i may as well tell you what i made. one of the things that i find bothersome to other is i'm always in a hurry. instead of spending time listening, i'm always going on to the next thing and people get it. >> not just being present. >> exactly. people say, father, i know you're bus zee, but do you mind if. how do you know if i'm busy? i know you're on to something else. how? that come as cross. >> that's my same resolution this year as well, especially with technology. there's all a reason not to be

present and just focus on the here and now, and the people that are around you, and the scene around you. my mom says stop and smell the roses every once in a while. >> for young people to be out there and be present, go outside, play pokemon go. just get outside, enjoy technology. >> i think we got into an argument about that once. i think pope francis said something about pokemon go or using video games. listen. i think the main thing is we focus on each other and technology isn't a bad thing. >> we'll hold you to that and talk to you next year. >> i've got to go. [laughter] >> exactly. i'm going to work out in 2017. let's stick around for a little while. >> love t happy new year. you brought your dog here. >> i did. >> let blow the break and keep talking. >> >>: i don't need to arrive on time to mass today. >> just chilling out now. >> relax. we'll do this if you want to do the next segment. >> i'll do whatever. i'm good. >> donald trump is making a new year's eve great again.

we'll explain why he's doing that. >> mariah carey made sure to end 2016 with a big bang. >> you've got to watch this. >> oh yeah. guess what? it gets better from here. you want to stick around. >> do you have flat, leftover champagne in your fridge on on your set right now? don't throw it out. we're using it in ways that you've never thought of. like cheese dips. it's going to be yummy. come cakes and cheese dip. >> oh, cupcakes. ♪ music

>> a live lock at times square where the waterford crystal ball dropped last night. millions of people were there. i'm always fascinated by the other random drops around the country. we thought that they had canceled that opossum drop. we couldn't find it, didn't know where it was. >> it did happen last night. apparently, it didn't. okay, so edward e-mailed us. the opossum drop is in brass town, north carolina, but they have suspended that because peta finds it harmful to the opossum. >> it's a live opossum?

>> yes. >> i thought it was stuffed. >> it depends how far you're dropping it. if it's from here to the floor, it's like cats. >> you remember de blasio dropping the groundhog on groundhogs day. he's 7'2, he dropped it. it died. >> it did? >> like the next day or two days later. >> i want to remind america about, you know brkts groundhog. >> there's a pickle drop as well? >> well, yeah. i think there is a pickle drop. >> in pennsylvania somewhere there's a pickle drop. >> let us know where other drops out are there. rick said earlier on the show, maybe no welcom nobody is up wae show. dave e-mailed and said i'm up because oreo is up. >> michael said i've been watching fox for the last couple of hours. i would like for abby to sing that would make my day. >> it would make ours, too. >> that's sweet. >> shall we?

>> no. >> somebody tried this thing last night and it was mariah carey. we were looking forward to mariah carey's big performance last night. we wanted to make sure she was there on time. >> we helped her yesterday morning, reminding her that the ball dropped at midnight because she wasn't sure. >> it was a total disaster. i did more research on this, guys, and what i found out is this that they rolled the wrong tape, the wrong sound. she was supposed to lip sync, she said we don't have a air check for that, we didn't plan for this, so they rolled the wrong tape and she's singing to the wrong song, trying to laugh it off and saying can i have some monitors. listen to this.

>> what. you know what i thought the best part was? the dancer are going the entire time. they're still doing it. >> clayton, what i'm reading from the new information is you're basically blaming the producers. >> how is it her fault? it's the music guys. >> how do you drop the ball? >> you're planning on this, it's like planning for the super bowl halftime show. you're working for months to

proof of less joint pain. and clearer skin. this is my body of proof that i can fight psoriatic arthritis with humira. humira works by targeting and helping to block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to both joint and skin symptoms. it's proven to help relieve pain, stop further joint damage, and clear skin in many adults. humira is the number #1 prescribed biologic for psoriatic arthritis.

humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. want more proof? ask your rheumatologist about humira. humira. what's your body of proof? >> welcome back and happy 2017. we have quick headlines for you. liberal lawmakers in cities across the country want to set up million dollar slush funds to protect illegal immigrants. guess who footing the bill? taxpayers, you. mayor's in louisiana, san francisco and california are looking to provide aid to illegal immigrants who could be

kicked out the country once mr. trump moves into the white house. these balls are contraband from inmates in oklahoma. recovering 29 cell phones and chargers, and nine pounds of tobacco amongst other things. security footage reveals that the balls were thrown over prison fences to inmates. that's a clever tactic, i've got to say. abby, over to you. >> thank you. 2016 was a deadly record breaking year of violence in the city of chicago. in just tbefl months, more than 750 people were murdered, that's a 20-year high. mayor emmanuel's response is asking for growing fund for immigrants. he joins mayor's to descrengtd en sanctuary cities before president trump takes office. join us to debate is trump supporter and strategist john rally. happy new year. >> good morning. god bless you. god bless america and happy new year. >> to you as well.

this is an important conversation to have as we good into year 2017. the big question here; this the answer? is this going to solve it? >> you know what, what i would say is that ramh emmanuel, the mayor of chicago and the new york mayor and all of them, they have american citizens who can use those funds. last year, we spent $113 billion on illegal aliens, that money could have gone to homeless veterans torque our inner cities, rural areas. it could have gone to our youth, and so my thing is this. i believe that they should be more concerned about what's going on in their cities with as far as americans are concerned, and you know, make sure that our americans are safe and have sanctuaries. >> here's the request by the mayor, some of the mayor's and city leaders. they satin support for deferred action for child arrival recipients, continued support for temporary protected status

immigrants as well. john, what is the answer here? what needs to be done? >> i think there's a tremendous opportunity for the republicans on this issue. i mean, 2016 as we turn the page on it was a year of racially charged politics and if they truly want to turn the page on, it i think it would be to embrace what these mayors who are close to the people in some very concentrated areas are asking. i think there's an opportunity for president elect trump to make the transition from tweeting on policies to lead on major policy initiatives. frankly, i don't know what the connection is between the crime rate and the immigration issue. i think we're conflating two very different things. >> what's your response to that? >> i would say this. i believe the protect donald trump has stated he'll deal with i will yuns cialg people illegally here committing crimes. interesting enough, the fact that we're talking about illegal aliens lets you know that they

have broken the law. interestingly enough, the parents broke the law and the children unfortunately are suffering behind it, but that is not america's fault and it is not america's burden. we have americans who are suffering that need those funds, and i think that the president elect, donald j trump, has made it clear, he'll put americans first. >> we're not talking -- we're not talking about just criminals. we're talked about undocumented in general. are the republicans, is president trump going to be rounded up undocumented people, their children and babies and deporting them? [overlapping speakers] >> he's been very clear. if you commit a crime, you're an illegal, you're getting out of here. >> absolutely. that should be how it is. why are we afraid to say that? >> it's very different. >> how is that different, john? >> the sanctuary city is not just about anybody committing a crime and so i think -- i mean, true. if you look over the course of

the 240 years of the united states, what has truly made america great frkts president is committed to that, has been the diversity of immigrants that have come in from all over the world, so i think this is a great opportunity for the president and republicans to re-brand a way from a lot of the racially oriented messages that got us sidetracked in twix. >> last word here. >> i think it has zero to do with racially charged. what it has to do, as americans, we have a right to know who was in our country and i believe the president elect is very correct in making sure that we are going to vet and make sure we know who is in our nation, and this is the issue. americans are footing the bill for illegal aliens like i said, when we have americans who need that 113 billion. this is not about illegals. this is about america first. >> all right, we have to leave it there. >> that's what's important. >> we have to leave it there. happy new year to both of you. >> happy new year to you, god bless you. coming up, president elect

donald trump proving he does not do business as usual. who he just invited to his inauguration. president obama is not going to like this one. i'm 51 years old. when i was diagnosed with pneumococcal pneumonia, it was huge for everybody. she just started to decline rapidly. i was rushed to the hospital... my symptoms were devastating. the doctor said, "pam! if you'd have waited two more days, you would've died." if i'd have known that a vaccine could have helped prevent this, i would have asked my doctor or pharmacist about it.

>> with the new year comes new laws on the books on everything from cat fish to sky land trerns to six packs so what do you need to know? here to discuss is gear carey. happy new year. >> happy new year. >> we've been having fun with the new laws. let's start with illinois and the pism fork hunting. what in the world is going on here? >> let me explain. pitchfork hunting interesting. i don't know if you've seen it on you tube, but you have people who are in football helmets and water skis, and they're going around -- >> really? >> yeah, yeah, it's amazing smsm have spikes on their football helmets and they're spearing fish while they're water skiing. it's absolutely amazing. >> now you can do it? >> they've always been able to do it but in this case, they can spear cat fish. catfish have been added to the list. couldn't do it before, but now they can. >> that's amazing. thank you to teaching me so

much. let's for oregon. oregon banning the sky land lan. abby said she had one blow up in her face. there's a problem with them? >> around 29 states have banned them. fire marshals hate them. they've caused problems in alaska, an airport had to reroute traffic because it went into air space and caused problems. >> what do they do? you light them and throw them up in the air and they fly for miles? >> same concept assist a hot air balloon and causing problems in england. they set fire to a tent there. they set fire to roofs, so expect other states to do the same. >> i think a lot of people mistake them for ufos, so getting rid of them, we'll have better identification of ufos, that's my goal. number three, pennsylvania allowing the sale of six packs. i grew up in pennsylvania. they've got whatever the state alcohol board, you got to go to

the main state controlled stores. what's going on with this? >> well, thanks to the quakers back in the day, they had a lot of strict laws to alcohol, then prohibition came along. you mentioned the state alcohol board went in to make it more difficult to buy alcohol, but now, the beer distributors in the past, you were only allowed to buy beer by the case. now you can go to the beer distributors in pennsylvania and buy beer in any quantity. supermarkets back in august, they're now allowed to sell beer, wine. gas stations or rather storesaso them can also sell beer as well, so they've really opened up a lot of the alcohol laws over in pennsylvania, and i would expect probably they're going to start loosening them up as well. >> finally, mark hamil behind the new california law about autographed memorabilia, luke skywalker, mark hamil. what's going on here? >> you have a situation with mark hamil or someone like him

who are had trade items like star wars, people have had fake autographs of him like kind of circulate around and he was concerned about that. the problem though that some people who are sellers of old books, they say, yeah, but we need to make sure that you have a certificate of authenticity attached to it, but book sellers say, well, we can't always provide that. >> right. >> that's a little difficult. >> well there's you go, new laws. kerry, great to see thu morning. happy new year. we'll be back with more mariah carey courage right after this. >> and this. just in. peta won't like t the opossum drop is real and you've been e-mailing us, letting us know. look at this video. ♪ music i laugh, i sneeze...

president-elect trump brought it up, so i do think that episode would suggest we should have some more media skepticism about who was behind the hacking. >> do you think in this instance, they're more deaf rent shal to how he articulates the intelligence than george w. bush because they are left of center. >> there might be see of that. but the press loves these unnamed sources stories, and they told us, we have no way of verifying that russia was behind this hacking. they may well have been but, everybody is accepting that as fact. it is striking though, rolling stone, loves president barak obama, and has done glowing interviews, and say what he

thinks, about, throwing cold water not just on the c.i. a claims but on the way the press. >> the rolling stone went onto write this, they said and i think we have a full screen for it, if they had a smoking gun evidence, that russians had organized a campaign and deliver the white house to trump then expelling a few dozen seems like a weak response. >> is that evidence, it would be much more proportional if they truly hacked our election. >> maybe president barak obama was being consprained by the enact he's out of office in three weeks and go beyond na relative slap on the wrist. but i do have to say, it makes you wonder, why it is, that everybody is now reporting this as fact. intelligence is mercury, and

relying on human surfses. it's often difficult to know, and too many are treating this as if it were an established fact. >> do you see that changing, and the narrative is, this election was hacked or is something that president-elect trump, could that change their narrative. >> if could. look, there is no question, that there was a lot of hacking, done in a way that did have some impact. it didn't change the outcome. was the russians, i think there's a good possibility. but what i think, and proving something, not just to the point of taking action, but proving it in the court of public opinion, that's a very different thing and i think the press has to be more cautious. >> the headlines of election hacking, and, like it was

pete: while 2016 will go down as one of the most divisive election years in history, the media takes sides early . >> as a woman, it feels so sexist and i guess the message that i want to spread out to other women is exactly what you are saying, not to giveup . >> it's easy to say throw in the towel and that we are going to leave.i want to move to spain, i really want to move to spain right now and everyone is like, it's your responsibility. it's your voice and you need to use it.pete: a look back at the media bias in 2016, what's next?

heroes again, acknowledging a scheme to create a population of opium addicted veterans. in 2016 the va treated more than 66,000 veterans for opioid abuse disorders while lacking sufficient rehab programs. andrew mckenna was a marine and doj prosecutor with whose life was upended by heroine spurred by opiates but he's come back strongly and he shares his book sure madness: from federal prosecutors to federal prison and joins us now to react. thank you for being here this morning.

tell me about this crisis that our veterans face against opiates? >> we have this epidemic of opioid use disorder. people are not getting the adequate treatment they need, especially veterans. they're coming from a unique position, coming back with a lot of trauma from the wars and we find in the treatment that trauma and addiction go hand-in-hand and what's happening is the va has created and they acknowledge this, they've created this massive group of people who are opioid addicted and they drew back. they didn't wean off the opioids. these are very powerful drugs. so what is somebody to do? go through withdrawals, they're dealing with trauma, they can't get treatment so they go to the street for bills. dollars.ree

>> tell me about your own story. how did it happen for you and what's that lesson for veterans? >> it happened at the same way for me. i hurt my back in the marine corps, it was a training mission. i was alawyer for the marine corps, a noncombatant but i hurt my back and i couldn't do anything about it. i went to the justice department and went to a civilian doctor and he said how many percocets do you think you need? pain have to be treated. doctorshave to have the freedom to treat pain but it has to be done responsible . i fell into depression as so many veterans do for other reasons and ultimately i turned to heroin and it's a house of cards . >> take us inside your head. you get these drugs, you're dealing with all these difficulties, where does that read? >> it leadsto absolute destruction. it's a house of cards. you cannot maintain consistent opioid use and here's the point for the public. nobody wants to be a heroin addict.

it's an absolute life of misery. >> no one deserves that and we have failed once again the most important segment of our society other than children . >> i've heard this time and again, guys i served with in afghanistan, they come home, the va can't help them so they handed them a bag of pills. the va has tried to dial that back but as you pointed out the facilities are not sufficient to see them so now they are waiting 50, 30, 45 days for an appointment let alone a prescription or proper mental health care. what is the solution at this point? >> they reduced the weight for acute care from 29 days to four days so for days for an opiate addict is

essentially four days of playing russian roulette you don't have that time. what we have to do is open it up to the private sector and this is something president-elect trump has talked about. open it up to the private sector. have tried care which is military benefits or va benefits, bring us into the private sector. iwork with addiction campuses. i spend 90 percent of my day getting people placed into quality treatment programs, not where they have to spend $100,000 a month but let's give our veterans what they deserve, access to the private sector. >> you're talking about giving them a choice. if you go to the va facility, great but then go to a private provider in real-time . >> why can't we do that? i don't know. is it bureaucracy? >> is it something about mental health care or opiates? there is some things the va does very very well at but at the same time if somebody is addicted to opiates, on the

civilian side they are also professionals who deal with that . >> exactly but what we deal with day in and day out is a mental health issue: occurring with an addiction issue. we focus on trauma because there's such a relationship between trauma and addiction . >>it's not that difficult to get our minds around the solution. it's just that congress and the administration have to step up and say look, if the va cannot handle it which is proven they can't handle it, it's a massive organization. but if they can't handle it, we have to turn to the private sector and give these guys a chance. >> healthcare, addiction, the va. why have they not stepped up so far? >> i can't figure that out. it can't be a monetary issue. it's not . >> there's billions more every year. >> right, so now we are have veterans dying day in and day out, becoming heroin or opioid addicted. somebodyneeds to step up and say enough is enough. we've already seen certain people that are contenders for the top seat for the va

have withdrawn their names. i would withdraw my name too. >> its government run healthcare run by a bureaucracy protected by special interest groups, it can be a tough code to crack. only aveteran of choice can change that complex. >> don't we have to give them a choice? we're sending them overseas, they are suffering. we can fix this problem . >> andrew mckenna, thanks for your expertise. hillary clinton was the greatest candidate of all time according to the mainstream media . >> seeing you in the spotlight, you have been fighting for hours. >> you have to go back literally to the 18th century to find somebody with the packed resume of hillary clinton.>> boy, were they wrong. we're counting down the worst media bias of the year coming up.>>

>> you'd have to go back literally to the 18th century to find somebody with a packed resume like hillary clinton. >> in all sorts of ways, it's conspiracy thinking and racism, all sorts of things that are outside the norm. >> 2016 will likely be going down as one of the worst times in our history country's history coming to media bias. dan from theresearch media bias center to break it all down, thanks for joining us . abby: happy new year. >> it's good to see all of you as well. pete: show some trump coverage up front and give your reaction, this is coverage of donald trump this year. >> donald trump is the scum of the earth . >> this was a white lash. this was a white lash against a changing country.>> she campaigned. >> mister trump, i want to

get to audience questions and online questions. >> she's allowed to do that but i'm not allowed to do that area and she went over a minute over and you don't stop her. when i go one second over ... it's really very interesting. pete: what you make of that? >> 2016 was the yearit became impossible to deny media bias. we've got dan jones who has the stupidest comment of the year. martha rattus climbing on stage to tagteam donald trump. the media hates donaldtrump so bad , it couldn't be any worse if he hoarded a hit on they. abby: they seem toreally like hillary clinton, let's take a look back at some of those moments . >> as long as we can remember seeing you in the spotlight you've been fighting for others . >> if you look at hillary clinton's qualifications,

since the founding fathers you'd have less on their resume. >> i've heard from a few people my age that they think you're dishonest. >> when he said that, i winced. i said you've obviously been in political battles but do you get your feelings hurt sometimes? pete: these are a few clips but overall, the coverage of hillary clinton? >> they downplayed her scandals, they promoted trumps scandals by 4 to 1 and they went negative to trump 91 percent of the time and now that the election is over, they are trying to come up with every excuse they have from russia to computers and what's amazing is you look at this and we've been entering this from hillary for 25 years. >> when you talk about hollywood, that was all over trump this year and a little joy they are to start off your 2017, watchthis . >> how do you explain the millions and millions of people who do not watch this show who actually like what they hear from donald trump, how do you explain that? >> there are a lot of people

who are racist if the republican party was dumbo, the modern republican party, the rule of that gumbo was white supremacy. >> yes we are for losers because a lot of the reason he won was based onracism, the russian hacking, lies, continuous lying that went on . >> so many promised to move away if they were to win, they're still here, i haven't seen any moving trucks. >> only george lopez says he is moving, the rest are going to stay. we saw 30 tv shows attacking donald trump, tons of tv shows and movies geared toward hillary clinton including madame secretary divine facebook. i would raise millions with the these calling videos. this election was for a rejection of hillary clinton, a rejection of allmedia and entertainment . pete: he labeled the new york times the failing new york times. will they learn their lesson stand?

>> there doubling down. there's so much worse now. it's the same failed new york times, they've launched an investigative operation in dc because suddenly now government is scary against republicans. >> thanks very much. more "fox & friends", have a new year. >> . ..

. . . .. . . .. . . .. . . .

all right just -- ooh. >> we haven't been able to -- >> ooh.

>> what was everything -- >> we do the entire lead. >> mariah. >> amazing, happy new year everyone. >> have a good sunday. . >> we begin with fox news alert on new year's massacre as he terror reigns in 2017, welcome to "sunday morning futures" on new year's day i am gregg jarrett for maria bartiromo a deadly attack at nightclub in istanbul turk 39 dead dozens wounded 6 00 people jammed inside in a nightclub with a loan gunman allegedly in santa costume killed a police officer standing guard burst inside, opening fire, the gunman, instinctual at any the loose this hour, raising fears me
