[screams] ♪ maybe next time the time he'll think ♪ before he tweets ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ when it comes to love ♪ my heart is black and blue. steve: thursday, november 9th, the day after the cmas a big night for garth. it was the 69th annual version. this one was different than we have seen before. ainsley: they weren't

supposed to get political and they did. we will weigh on that coming up. brian: i liked it because they hit both sides unlike every single late night show that only hits one side. steve: anyway, we will play a lot of that coming up. right now at 6:02 eastern time, a fox news alert. let's go to china where the president says it's time to cut off north korea. brian: that sister-in-law message from president trump to his chinese counterpart. ainsley reads? ainsley: griff jenkins is live in our nation's capitol with a firm stance. >> good morning. the president, first lady melania and chinese president. tough talk on trade and as you mentioned trade. do more reigning in north korea's nuclear weapons program. >> the united states is committed to the complete and permanent denuclearization of north korea, so important.

china can fix this problem easily. and quickly and i am calling on china and your great president to hopefully work on it very hard. >> that means china needs to fully implement u.n. security council resolutions as well as enforcing tough sanctions. and on trade, president trump blamed past u.s. administrations for a one-sided and unfair trade relationship, giving president xi credit for taking advantage of the opportunities. >> i don't blame china. who can blame a country for being able to take advantage of another country for the benefit of its citizens? i give china great credit. >> china really rolling out the red carpet. we saw the president there just making a toast saying when the two countries work together, you can liberal great things. they announced some $250 billion in commercial agreements that include u.s. made products like jets, auto parts, natural gas, and beef. and finally, next, the

president heads to vietnam for two days of economic summits where a previously announced face-to-face meeting with russian president vladimir putin may be in question. secretary of state rex tillerson walking that meeting back. still under consideration. we will find out, guys. more on that later. steve: we'll, indeed. brian: great job. it's amazing. the people of china were told to or they actually do love this president. they showed up. by the millions. they seem to love him in the communist run newspapers. ainsley: the kids were waving the american flags. the american and the chinese flags. brian: he went toe a portion of the forbidden city and eating there, a place that we have not had an american leader eat at before. doing the exact inverse that they do with president obama. steve: obviously a very historic and landmark visit. coming up in the next couple of minutes, you will discover what donald trump's secret weapon is, a 6-year-old girl. ainsley: his grand daughter. steve: we will show that to you in a minute. first, after he left the

white house, former white house chief strategist steve bannon made it very clear he is going to help drain the swamp because establishment politics in washington are not to the benefit of donald trump. last night he went on with sean hannity and he made it very clear the house of representatives is doing their job but mitch mcconnell has got to quit. watch. >> the house has actually voted on i think it's 180 bills that the senate has not taken up. including many bills that would be a very difficult bill for joe manchin and claire miscass kill and joe tester and heidi heitcamp and other democrats we need to take down in 2018. and mitch mcconnell has refused to do it. i will tell you, sean, i'm to the point that i think mitch mcconnell to really bring unity to the republican party to get things done, i think mitch mcconnell ought to tender his resignation. he ought to offer to resign as soon as taxes are done. we can't do it in the middle of taxes. i think mitch mcconnell tomorrow should tender his resignation and say after we

get taxes done, i will step aside and we have a revote on majority leader. i have to tell you there, needs to be a sense of urgency in the senate. he should tender his resignation tonight after the tax cuts. brian: not getting anything done. without bringing up regulation to go forward. that's a good point. in terms of a leader in the senate to get republicans to vote the right way. name me the man or woman that's going to convince susan collins, senator john mccain and senator jeff flake even though he votes with the president almost all the all the time. all those who give him a hard time. so-called moderates. tell me who that person is to get them to vote that person will be majority leader. mitch mcconnell can't convince them. even lindsey graham can't get john mccain to vote a person way. ainsley: you are saying it's not mitch mcconnell's fault. brian: i don't know what you want him to do. steve: the thing is he steamed of. mitch mcconnell and he set it up are all these house

bills, there are a number of the house bills that the senate could take up would impact a number of democrats in the senate and he feels that that would clear them out. let's see if mitch mcconnell quits later today. don't hold your breath. ainsley: he also called on jeff sessions to appoint a special counsel to look into hillary clinton into uranium one. steve: we have jim jordan of ohio going to be on the program. he is doing the same thing. donna brazile, have you heard she has a book out. ainsley: she has been on every single network pushing this book. if you watch her interviews out of the gate she says you need to buy my book because of this. you need to buy my book because of this. last night she was on with tucker carlson. they are good friends. they used to work at cnn together. he asked her why she leaked those questions. wikileaks informed all of us that she leaked questions to hillary clinton during one of the debates which wasn't fair because she was debating with bernie sanders. it looked like she was in the tank for hillary. he asked her about that. and it's so funny. listen to this.

>> last year that cnn never provided us with any questions. cnn never gave us anything in advance. what did i say and what i have said in the future -- what i said in the past and what i have said in this book is that i, as an officer of the dnc, and i know wikileaks gave everybody, you know, certain questions and certain emails. but as an officer of the dnc i sought to expand the number of debates. i wanted to make sure that we had diverse voices and we covered issues that had not been discussed in previous debates. what i sought to do, tucker, was to ensure that we had these issues on the table and i made sure that our candidates -- i didn't want them blind sided. that's what i admitted to. steve: so she gave her the questions in a town hall ahead of time because she didn't want the politicians blind sided. ainsley: she made it plural. steve: she was talking about bernie and martin o'malley. brian: she claims she gave

them questions, too. would like to see those questions that she gave. steve: no kidding. tucker, that's a lot of really good questions. for the most part she didn't answer any of them. ainsley: tucker did that he is known for that laugh and he cackled when she said that said oh that's a spin. that's a good spin. steve: she invited him to go fishing. brian: donna brazile should find out if shy wants to disavow her book or confirm her book. depending who she likes to talk to get off the subject. never seen an author be asked about what they wrote in their book in their words and not answer the question. ainsley: there is a quality about it though. steve: there has been such a fire and fury storm after people started reading it it's like is that true and she is -- you know, she is answering the way she wants to to now. ainsley: opens the curtain on the dnc and i like her a lot. brian: the problem is she put the curtain back on during interviews. ainsley: depending who she is talking to. brian: use old quotes to get answers from her own book.

ainsley: right out of the gate she said she started just talking. tucker said hold on main. i'm the one interviewing you. i haven't asked you a question yet. steve: he asked her questions and she did not answer them. did you see the cmas live last night? remember in the olden days which football wasn't political and some things weren't political. now it turns out of the cmas have gotten very political. here are super stars brad paisley and carrie underwood. >> the cma has given us guidelines with specific topics to avoid so he we can't be doing any of our silly little songs because this year's show is a politics free zone. >> what about like well, she's gone, gone, gone ♪ oh no she wrote a memoir ♪ hillary's back. can't do it? >> creative, but no. ♪ right now he is probably in his pj's watching cable

news ♪ reaching for his cell phone ♪ in the middle of the night ♪ from the privacy of a gold plated white house toilet seat ♪ he writes little bob corker nfl ♪ and coffee ♪ coffee ♪ it's fun to watch it that's for sure ♪ until rocket man starts a nuclear war ♪ and maybe next time ♪ he'll think ♪ before he tweets ♪ [cheers and applause] steve: he'll think before he tweets. twitter blew up. some people said it was brilliant. i read one guy who said even the cma awards have opened up by mocking the president. time to find something else to watch that won't involve politics. ainsley: you liked it? brian: i heard new country is less conservative than old country. i liked the fact that they opened one a few hits on hillary clinton which seth meyers and all these other guys don't do. they balanced it out. there is only one president, i thought that was in the

old vein of having fun. steve: right. brian: as opposed to the attack hate that you get on late night tv. steve: the way they opened up that particular sound bite that we ran, they said we can't get political. that's because on november the 3rd, the cmas sent out hey, nobody is supposed to get political, okay? and obviously they didn't like it. and brad paisley said so on twitter. ainsley: where's dolly? where's garth brooks? they don't get political. charlie daniels talked about how he likes the old country better than the new country? really? it's hitting country music now? isn't country music supposed to be conservative? steve: i do remember them making fun of president obama back in the day. so equal opportunity offenders. what do you think? email us at friends@foxnews.com. straight ahead on this thursday. brian: i'm going back to rap. that's where there is no politics. senator rand paul has six broken ribs and the guy responsible said it wasn't

about politics. ainsley: it was about leaves in the yard. brian: that story is falling apart. steve: appears to be. one year later the crying clinton supporters have just moved on. right? ♪ screams] [screams] copd makes it hard to breathe.

steve: tuesday was a big night for democrats as they pulled out victories in both virginia and new jersey in the governor races. but they might be celebrating a little too soon. here to preview the mid terms is editor-at-large scott rasmussen. >> good morning. steve: we have the magic television here. what are you going to show us? >> we talk about the big victories. it was a big night for democrats. it was a big night but home field advantage. hillary clinton won virginia by 5 points. this a state that has lots and lots of federal workers moving into the northern part of the state. it's becoming reliably democratic. northam won by 9. bigger margin than hillary. you can argue was it because gillespie embraced trump too little or whatever the fact is trump hasn't delivered on some of the problems. steve: new jersey. >> only surprise chris christie won 8 years ago. a fluke with unpopular

governor. steve: i live there it's a very blue state. >> there is nothing here. steve: that's not a surprise. going on the wrong direction. steve? steve: go in the middle right here. >> now we go to the map. this is a 2018 geography, 33 seats up for re-election in the u.s. senate, most of them are blue. most of these states are democrats. a lot of them were there only because barack obama carried them across the finish line six years ago. steve: conventional wisdom is if i they are blue now going forward except the donald trump factor. >> that's right. these are the states with senate races and how they voted last time for donald trump. all of these blue states won by donald trump. some of them, montana north dakota, missouri, indiana, west virginia, these are states trump won by between 18 and 42 points. if you are joe manchin in west virginia, you are talking about an electorate that four years ago or six years ago you could be a democrat and it was okay. but right now it's very

tough. arizona, donald trump won just by three points. it's a state where jeff flake has had his problems. this is a democratic pickup opportunity. probably the only one in a state trump won. here's the other side of the map. dean heller, nevada, this is the only state where donald trump lost and a republican senator is up for re-election. so, if the democrats won nevada, if they won arizona. they picked up those vulnerable seats, and if they held on to all of the other seats in republican territory, the senate ends up 50/50. mike pence cast the deciding vote. still a republican majority. steve: what you are saying though even though democrats are crowing about picking up a couple of state houses a couple of days ago, the map for 2018. >> the map for 2018 is terrible. they might in the house but in the senate a difficult path. steve: thank you very much. coming up on this thursday. how is the tsa doing detecting threats? the agency just tested and the results are in.

language the third verse refers to the fact that francis scott key was saying that american -- african-americans were being -- going to the british side during the war of 1812 and that's what he put in the third verse. it wasn't about blacks and whites and slavery and free people as much as we don't condone that so, chris, should we change it? >> no, we certainly should not change it. first of all, if we can't just throw america in the trash and start over again. removing the national anthem from america would be like removing the heart from america. this is something that many of us -- actually all ofs have you grown up on as being american citizens in our country. we have to start to have strength in our country, come more together as a nation. it is time to let go of the divisiveness, all the drama and time to come together. i feel as though whether people like president trump or not, i feel like it's a way for people to defy him and people are mike co-analyzing every thing to

come out and not to do things. we have to set examples forever our younger generations. we have been doing this for years and years. we all grew up on this. it's time to start moving forward and be strong as a nation together. brian: capri? >> look, i certainly respect the advocacy efforts of the naacp on behalf of african-americans all across the country. however, i think that their efforts would be better served in this context to maybe lobby state legislators or school boards to be mor inclusive for the curriculum of american history. as you mentioned, brian, most people don't even know that exist. most people don't know anything in the national anthem that has anything to do with the african-americans joining british soldiers in the war of 1812 to try to seek freedom. fair enough. let's make it a teachable moment. but to just, you know, throw the baby out with the bath water and change our national anthem i think is premature. brian: does it matter,

chris, if you look back at francis scott key's life. he writes the national anthem. he was trying to get a friend off a british ship to set up a prisoner exchange when they start bombing fort mchenry he writes three verse. it was a poem. it becomes the national anthem in the 20th century. so, does it matter that he starts off typical slave owner and he ends up legally using his legal efforts to free slaves and have them further represented? should we go back into the future? does that play into this conversation or do we just say that was 200 years ago, don't worry about it? >> so, of course, with america we take the good, the bad, and the ugly. there is a reason why the third verse is not included. i think the entire conversation is frankly outrageous and to your point, there are numerous things that they could be focusing on as well. there is a reason why the majority of americans don't know it exists. give them a reason to know it exists right now. brian: i didn'i didn't. >> frankly, it's time that we come together as a nation

and be strong. these kind of things cause divisiveness and not how our nation is going to move forward. reality is 200 years ago. numerous things that happened in the last 50 years, 60 years, 200 years. there is a reason why people don't know about it why bring up all the negativity and have these reasons to not hash these things out? if that was the case, it would have been brought up 8 years ago, five years ago during president obama's administration. it's another way to divide america. brian: final thoughts, capri? >> our nation has a lot its facing. i think everyone's efforts would be better focused on things like the economy and jobs and not necessarily playing these, you know, political games, you know, just to try to score points. we need to focus on what really matters to americans. that's, you know, getting people jobs and putting money in people's pockets. brian: i just recommend for both of you if you haven't done it yet. go to fort mchenry, see what it was all about then. see how imperiled our democracy and country was

and understand why he wrote it and why it was necessary to make it the national anthem. guys, great debate. thank you so much. >> thank you. brian: 28 minutes after the hour, what's the real reason joe biden didn't run for president? he finally is opening up and hillary clinton isn't going to be happy. big bucks for his financial advice. for you, it will be free. look out he might invoice you in the mail. he brought his whole team along to answer your questions. he needs the village. ♪ ♪ ♪ what is this? when we love someone, we want to do right by them. but some things we can't control

ronald reagan that's the author or donald trump that's the author or a democrat that's the author. any time the private sector, me, gets to keep more of my money, that's a good thing. that's what i think of trump's tax proposal. because what happens is that's what drives the economy. the government is a tick on the butt of america. it doesn't drive the economy. it sucks the blood on the economy. any time we can lower taxation and push money into the economy it drives the economy. it's a simple equation. ainsley: dave, you are the expert on this. how many books have you written? >> i have forgotten. 8 or 10 that were best sellers. something like that. ainsley: this is your team. you all work for dave. chris hogan has given me advice. nora from texas wants to know he is receiving $16,000 bonus using the money to pay back my mom for a loan. she isn't good with money i'm worried she is going to spend it instead of save it for retirement. how can i help her manage

her this money? >> have a conversation. ask her about her retirement dreams. what are some things she wants to be able to accomplish and begin to point her in the directions of some financial resources. there are books out there. there are podcasts out there. but ultimately you can't control your mom. let's face it, you owe the money so you need to pay it back. it's not up to you about how she spends it or not. guide her, love her, but pay back your debt. ainsley: she is still your momma. >> that's right. ainsley: this is chris brown. chris, you told us your story before. raised in poverty. your single mom raised you and you went house to house and at one point you lived in your car. >> yep. ainsley: now you are making a lot of money. we are listening to your advice. this is ashley in utah. she says my sister has come in to hard times. i would like to do something a little extra this christmas to help her. how can i give without seeming like i'm flaunting my money. >> christmas. hard to believe we are talking about christmas. ainsley: i know. like 50 days away. maybe less than that. >> you have to have proactive communication. for me, whenever i have

wanted to give somebody money and i knew it was not going to be well received, explaining that in person maybe not through email or text. and then if you are going to give money, make sure that you are okay with the way they spend it again, focus on what you can control. if they are going to spend it however they need to spend it be okay with giving them money. proactive communication helping. ainsley: pull them aside i'm going to give you money, no one else in the family needs to know about it so you are not embarrassing them. ainsley: anthony, struggled to pay your massive student loan debt. want to know how to get out of that carolyn says i'm in college and work full time to pay tuition out of my pocket. my dad has hinted he wants me to move out on my own soon. what money moves can i prepare to live on my own. >> key a i would say your father doesn't want to have you out. he wants you to be successful. sit down and make a plan for your life. make a plan for your money. and make sure these two are congruent, working together. once you come up with that plan, go back home, present that to your father and

mother and say, hey, here is the plan that i'm making to move out. give me a little bit of time. do you approve? do you like this? if he says yes, hey, you are still in the house. if he says no. i want you to relax, go find a room roommate. keep your expenses low. i want you to graduate college debt-free because you are already ahead of the game. ainsley: should we do 52 for our kids. >> absolutely. ainsley: go ahead and put that money away tax-free. what's the question you get from most people? >> i think it comes around the idea of how do i get control in the sense that i'm out of control and maybe it's a debt problem. maybe i need to fund my new baby's 529. maybe i'm worried about retirement, what chris talks about all the time. it's just how can i get control? and all of us -- i always point people back good starting place is the budget. that's where we every dollar app. free to do the budget on your phone. really fast and easy. once you to do. smart things automatically.

wasn't hurt and won't face charges for a false alarm. ainsley: today begins day four in the jury deliberations in the corruption trial of democratic senator bob then then did he see. brian: accused of of taking bribes for political favors. even if convicted of a felony he could still keep his job in the senate? here to explain is judge andrew napolitano. judge, how could you keep your job and get convicted? it makes no sense. >> well, there are a couple of issues here, brian. and good morning, guys. ainsley: good morning. >> the conviction is not official until the time of sentencing. and sentencing normally occurs two to three to four months after the jury verdict. the other issue is that unless he chooses to resign, then the senate is left with the option of expelling him, which take as two thirds vote, which means you have to have 12 or 13 democrats participating in that process. clearly, senator schumer, the leader of the democrats in the senate can delay this until after january 20th.

what's january 20th? that's when new jersey's new governor, phil murphy, a democrat comes in. so, it is almost certain that if bob menendez. it's a big if. if bob menendez is convicted, his replacement will be a person chosen by the incoming new democratic governor phil murphy. steve: why not the outgoing chris christie the republican. if he is convicted in, let's say the next week or so, you would think that chris christie would have the authority to go ahead and appoint a new guy or gal. >> you know, there is a lot of people who speculated about that. i'm sure that the republicans salivated at the prospect of replacing a democrat in the senate with a republican giving them 53 to 47 vote margin. but you can't replace bob menendez while he is still in office. he leaves office either by resigning or by natural causes or because the senate kicks him out. the process of kicking him out will take five to six

months. look, the last time this happened was in new jersey with senator harrison williams and the abscam issue. ainsley: what's going on in y'all's state? >> he was convicted and stayed in office another 10 months. ainsley: oh my gosh. >> here's the dilemma. , who replaces him? will it be a caretaker? will be a partisan or unity candidate. you won't believe hot unity candidate is with support amongst republicans, democrat, and a good friend in the oval office. former new jersey senator bob torcelli is emerging as the unity candidate that governor murphy, soon to be governor murphy would appoint if senator menendez leaves office. ainsley: so senator menendez, he says i was just helping my friend. friend down in florida helping him with medical dispute next change for hotel rooms and $750,000 in contributions toward his campaign. his excuses or his reason is

that was my friend. that friend has already been convicted in medicare overbilling cases. do you think that senator menendez is going to get off scot-free or going to be convicted? >> i don't know. i do believe that if he is convicted, much of the conviction will be overturned, ainsley, because that phrase just helping my friend was used by the supreme court of the united states when unanimously overturned the bribery conviction of former virginia governor bob mcdonald saying, if the politician is just helping his friend, if there is no quid pro quo, if there is no i'll do this for you if you line my pockets, well, that's what politicians do. it's not bribery. brian: we'll see what happens. i guess you need -- it's a long process. democratic governor going to end up being a democratic seat. a lot of nothing. >> yes. steve: and, judge, real quickly, the rules that they have got regarding whether

or not he would be replaced, et cetera, those are the rules the senate makes for themselves, right? >> yes. and that requires the two thirds vote. it requires 67 senators to expel another one. it's going to take a long time for anybody, mitch mcconnell or schumer to address that. steve: thank you for joining us today from d.c. >> see you later, guys. brian: a fox news alert now. president donald trump message for the people of china and north korea. we are live traveling with the president top of the hour. ainsley: she lost the white house, buy she want help pat herself on the back for what happened this week. >> it was fabulous, you know. yesterday, one of the groups i support called run for something, usually if you are a first-time candidate have you about a 10% chance winning. 40% of their candidates won. hello, i'm an idaho potato farmer.

[screams] >> when you first heard they were going to do remake of this iconic story agatha christie, what went through your mind. >> i had never seen the original movie. if i had, it was much longer. i had forgotten about the ending. reading the script through and trying to put the puzzle pieces together and be the detective as i was reading it, it just blew my mind. >> it is rare that these kinds of movies are made and, you know, that are so kind of epic in nature and that are character-based ken has made it more relevant today. >> so he is very good at honoring the source but also allowing it to for today and also accepts our present day sensibility injected into i it. >> what do you think of the dead man? >> you leave her out of this. >> did he have any means? >> pick a number. >> i wanted something where

you could escape into the screen, use this 65-millimeter format to take the saturday yens on the train, escape to a different place. become a mystery and then become this kind of psychological drama which is very engrossing. >> i'm sleeping here where everyone can see me. and i can see everyone. >> every one of you is a suspect. >> and who are you? >> my name is -- i'm probably the greatest detective in the world. steve: i was waiting for him to show up. take a ride in orient express and remember why you fell in love with hollywood and the big movies they used to do. steve: in the original as in the case here everyone is a suspect. ainsley: do you find out who did it in the end? >> there is a twist. steve: very good. thank you. still ahead on this friday, rnc spokesperson kailey mc, tony is a bat toe jr. and congressman jim jordan.

agreements like u.s. products like jets and auto parts. natural gas and beef. overture to try to chip away at the massive trade gap between the u.s. and china. all part of a very tough two days here on the ground, focused on trade and north korea. on trade the president saying listen, he doesn't blame the chinese, by the way, for taking advantage of their opportunities. listen to what he had to say about that. >> trade between china and the united states has not been over the last many, many years a very fair one. i don't blame china. i do blame past administrations. >> tough words right there. now to china and north korea. clearly the president wanted something that he could point to in terms of cooperation to try to reign in the renegade regime in the north. you heard the president of china say we are open to negotiation. translation, there is not much you can really do other than understand that it is in china's interest to keep the north as a bull worker

against advancing u.s. interests especially when they consider how south korea is and to have that on their border the way they view it, guys, they are not so crazy about it we will talk more about that in our next hour and of course also let you know about that proposed meeting with vladimir putin to come in vietnam as we look forward to apec. back to you. brian: one big meeting. kevin great job where day is night and night is day. that's the living on a planet. steve: they are on the other side. they are like a day ahead of us. important though that he mentioned that president trump sounds like has brought in $250 billion worth of contracts with the chinese. i think the official announcement coming up. we did learn in the last couple of hours what donald trump's secret weapon is and she's 6 years old. she's the daughter of jared and ivanka. here is donald trump's granddaughter singing. ♪ ♪

ainsley: does that make you feel bad as a parent? brian: my goodness, 6-year-old singing mandarin. ainsley: how impressive is that? brian: that is incredible. shows great respect for the chinese culture. i think they truly appreciate it i don't know if people noticed it's certainly going to be underplayed in a lot of circles. the president is really look up to in china. i don't know, they seem to really enjoy him, the stuff that has been written about him, the way he has been received, the places he has been. the formal and informal interactions have been extremely strong. ainsley: the children were waving the american flag which was very nice, giving him a warm welcome. he and melania. brian: they played stars and stripes forever when they walked out. steve: the way she started the little video which has since been played. ainsley: the president showed the president of china yesterday. steve: there is the big

video of the dinner last night. she started arabella did hello grandpa g and grandpa g, the president of china gave her an a plus as she builds bridges through songs singing mandarin in beijing. brian: the president's message almost comical the way president is backing off tough language. no he isn't. listen, huge trade imbalance. i'm not blaming you. i blame us. steve: we made bad deals in the past. brian: that doesn't mean the deal is not going to stick. he traveled. i have trade surplus for the quhins 9 billion ready to go. they kind of surprised us with hey, we have $9 billion worth of trade deals with you. welcome to china. steve: that's why the $250 billion worth of contracts that he has signed, it sounds like over there, is going to be a step in the right direction. meanwhile, let's talk politics here in this country. ainsley: back here at home, you had steve bannon, who is the former white house chief

strategist on with sean hannity last night. he had a tough message for those folks down in washington. he's trying to drain the swamp one person at a time. whose the target this time? mitch mcconnell. listen. >> the house has actually voted on i think it's 180 bills that the senate has not taken up, including many bills that would be a very difficult vote for joe manchin he and clair mccaskill and joe tester and heidi heitcamp and red state democrats we need to take down in 2018. and mitch mcconnell has refused to do it. i will tell you, sean, i'm to the point i think mitch mcconnell in order to bring unity to the republican party to get things done, i think mitch mcconnell ought to tender his resignation. what he ought to do is offer to resign as soon as taxes are done. we can't do it in the middle of taxes. i think mitch mcconnell tomorrow should tender his resignation and say hey, somebody's we get taxes done i will step aside and have a revote on majority leader. there needs to be seafns

urgency. he needs to tender his resignation tonight after tax cuts. steve: so he far we have not heard that mitch mcconnell has resigned. leadership did call steve bannon a month or two ago because he was taking shots at sitting u.s. senators. ainsley: and said what? steve: they said would you please stop attacking the republican senators and particularly stop attacking mitch mcconnell. and they said, you know what? if do you, mitch mcconnell will be gone in january of 2019. you know what steve bannon said no, not going to stop. brian: the problem is and i think the argument is steve bannon wants to put people up there that agree with him and a lot of them aren't electable. mcconnell says i don't want the candidate that i want, i want the one that's going to win. that's what they worry about the sharon angles of the world being for. steve: look at the senate right now, that is in total gridlock. as we just heard him say, 180 bills passed by the house. they go to the senate, there

they just sit. ainsley: i don't think anyone knew that angela didn't know it. she wrote us and said wow, 180 bills just sitting there? all senators should do their jobs or resign. brian: it's what doing their jobs. if you vote with the president and three people don't, i don't think you can blame the 47 that did. steve: the whole idea is if you pass something in the house and it moves to the senate have them vote on it but instead he is not having them take those tough votes. ainsley: how do those three people keep getting elected they are not representing the party. brian: susan collins is representing susan collins and people of maine. ainsley: her constituents. brian: please mitch, get something done now before the luster of your supreme court maneuvers wear off. it's the senate bill that the senate seems to be more intrigued than the house bill. yesterday he was working the phones and telling so-called moderate democrats, listen, don't get caught up in the house bill the senate one is going to be a lot better and get details of that today.

steve: look back to what happened in a couple of state houses across the country on tuesday night where democrats did very, very well. the lesson for republicans who are in congress is unless they get a win, unless they get the taxes because they blew it so bad on the repeal and replace of obamacare, they are all going to be out of work. just that simple. you have got to get something done or the republican base is going to say we sent them there and they didn't do anything. ainsley: frustrating. send us your emails. keep those coming in we will be talking about it the next two hours. steve: we need something to do. ainsley: hour and 15 minutes and then it's friday. steve: so far all we have had is we are going to wear jeans tomorrow. ainsley: i love it steve has said we are all wearing jeans tomorrow.

early. keep the pressure on russia. brian: boris, what's in it for them, why would they leave influence in ukraine. why would they leave syria? both those things we want to see happen. >> look, the ukraine problem is extremely difficult. but we cannot give up on what they did in crimea. that was a sovereign territory of a european nation. that taken by russia. and we have to stick up for our principles i know here in washington and people in america believe in that, too. we have to keep the pressure on the russians for that at the same time, we got to work towards a solution in ukraine and end to that war that's going on in the region. and being fomented by vladimir putin. brian: boris, we see the way he was received in saudi arabia and south korea and japan and reading all the way in which he is looked up to in china, what is the perception from the outside in of this president baste

seems to get so much negative press here at home? >> i think you have got to realize that the american president is just one of the huge great global brands. he is penetrating corners of the global consciousness that i think few other presidents have ever done. his method of tweeting early in the morning, no matter how rambunctious those tweets may be, they are -- they are communicating with people. and, yes, a lot of people don't like it, but a lot of people relate to it. and in an age when people are being turned off politics, it's more direct and it's more commune ca commute than a lot of previous presidents have managed. brian: you were made for television. i like the way you turned in the middle and thought about things. you are a great guest. appreciate it? >> thank you. brian: the property man is here, bob massi is in studio and good news about the housing market. incredible reason he is in

so as a result of the buying going up, the rentals will go down. what's happened is a lot of these investors, they really hurt these people with rental costs because they said, you know, the inventory is there and they hit them pretty good. ainsley: i think they are buying the condos they have a door man and don't have a yard to worry, about smaller homes. much easier. >> millennials are very much about convenience. what we did show on the property man in florida we did at lake nona. it's a beautiful area. everything is self-contained. millennials don't own a car. they ride their bicycles. they have go to school there. steve: they just need a phone charger. >> that's all they need is a phone charger and laptop, maybe. as a result, you are right. they look for convenience and try to keep -- they seem to be much more money conscious than the baby boomers were. steve: good. >> which is a good thing. more frugal in a lot of ways. the baby boomers still have to help them cosign to buy things because they're still developing their life. steve: let me ask you about

this. there is a move in congress to do something about taxes. one of the suggestions is to get rid of for the most part the mortgage interest deduction. if that happens because you are the property guy, is that going to impact the houses people buy? >> there is different opinions on that. they are talking about maybe capping it after 500,000. there is no write off. so up to 500,000, of course, depending on the part of the country you live in you could buy quite a place and get the write off. interestingly enough i talked and interviewed people and asked them how important are these write offs to you? a lot of them don't think about it they are so involved in buying the home they want. they don't think about what am i going to be able to write off. people more investment oriented see an home as an investment as opposed to a place to live. the mortgage interest rate becomes important. ainsley: tonight is a big night. >> yeah. our friend started building homes for heroes after 9/11. he lost some friends. he quit his job, started this organization. they build these beautiful homes all around the country for our men and women that have gone overseas and badly

claus. we never get the answer to that how that plays out on christmas day. steve: tell you during the commercial. don't want to spoil it for the kids. i like to go one holiday at the time. at the home depot in my town, they were actually putting up christmas stuff before halloween. i got to go through thanksgiving before can i hear the christmas music. ainsley: wait a minute, aren't there some holidays in between like when is festivus? it is like december 15th then you only get like 10 days of christmas music. steve: i don't know that home depot has many festivus decorations i may not be in that aisle. >> who, who, who. brian: i agree with steve that you can't have christmas without thanksgiving. steve: one holiday at the time. brian: i wil ainsley: anything is bad for your health if you only look at the negative side of it.

i agree. i hope the psychologists i hope their heart grows three sizes before she steals the yule log from the whos. brian: i call it normal person who wants to be able to breathe between halloween and christmas. ainsley: i don't agree with that. steve: you said you did for a second. ainsley: i take that away. i want the more the merrier. that works there. brian: i wish we get back to making things for people instead of buying things for people. ainsley: that's a different issue. steve: that's something we have at our house. you have to make something for somebody. every year. brian: really? ainsley: what do your kids make you? steve: all sorts of stuff. it's all in the closet. brian: i want a house made out of popsicle sticks. steve: i helped my kids make those. brian: i want my fourth grade project back. ainsley: put up a christmas tree in her room all the ornaments she makes go there my mom puts them on the main

tree. i want the main tree to be all of the nice ornaments. brian: those are the two minutes we have gone over on this talking point. steve: we have another talking point. ainsley: we do. i'm sorry, i'm jumping ahead. brian: meanwhile. steve: if you were watching the cmas last night the 51st annual cmas, it turns out the first five minutes of the awards show were very political. here are country super stars brad paisley and carrie underwood talking about the president of the united states. >> the cma has given us some guidelines with specific topics to avoid so we can't be doing any of our silly little songs because this year's show is a politics-free zone. >> what about like: ♪ well, she's gone, gone, go. >gone. >> oh no she wrote a memoir. hillary's back. can we do it. >> creative, no. >> right now probably in

pj's watching cable news reaching for his cell phone. >> really ♪ in the middle of the night ♪ from the privacy of a gold plated privacy of a white house toilet seat he writes little bob corker and nfl and kofi. >> cove ♪ it's fun to watch it that's for sure ♪ until rocket man starts a nuclear war ♪ maybe next time he'll think ♪ before he tweets ♪ [cheers and applause] brian: i didn't have a problem with it they went after hillary first. there is only one president. i thought that was numerous unlike the hate you get from other monologues. steve: here's the thing. ultimately what happens and laura ingraham wrote a whole book about it called shut up and sing. it's when you go to something, say an entertainment show, an awards show like that, you want the entertainment part. but you don't want it to become political. and unfortunately because the world is so politicized

and so polarized these days, when you do you anger half the people watching. ainsley: at least it was not one sided. i love country music. brian: won you over. ainsley: won me over. steve: first five minutes. ainsley: when i was reading the article about it this morning really they got political? now it's affecting country music, nashville not supporting our president? i was not expecting that. but then when i see the video, then i do see that they were making fun of hillary and they were making fun of the president. and it was funny. it was kind of creative. not as big of a deal as i thought. jillian: whole deal think before you tweet. i said maybe that's something we can all remember sometimes now that there is 280 characters for all of us to send out tweets. maybe it sends a message that we can all take to heart. ainsley: making funnel of the tweeting. guess who loves the tweeting? all those folks in nashville. all the folks in the south and middle america love it because is he jumping -- he is trumping the

establishment. brian: we have been told that the new country artists are less conservative than the old country. ainsley: more liberal. that's a fact. jillian: should i think before i tweet about watching christmas movies for three weeks now? brian: is this going to be a physical toss or emotional toss? jillian: how would you like the toss to go? brian: is she staying around? jillian: stay here? look at this camera and do the headlines? okay. let's do that good morning to you. oakland's top cop under fire from her own city for helping the feds in a human trafficking bust that involved an illegal immigrant. an investigation launched in to chief ann kirkpatrick after she sent a sergeant and two officers to direct traffic during an ice investigation. that's an alleged violation of oakland's sanctuary city law. two people were detained in the bust. one is now set for deportation. a war may be brewing between nfl owners over commissioner roger goodell. the "new york times" reporting cowboys owner jerry jones hired a lawyer

steve: time now for quick thursday morning headlines. first up. target is selling fidget spinners that could contain high levels of lead. so beware. a customer -- rather a consumer advocacy group says fidget wild premium spinner brass and metal could contain as much as 330 times the legal limit for lead in kid's products. the group is calling on target to stop selling the items and issue recalls for ones already sold. i bet they do. we are weeks away from black friday, the day after thanksgiving. some stores are getting a head start on the sale. best buy now offering that laptop for 9 bucks. amazon and wal-mart also releasing early holiday deals online because they all want our money.

brian: 15 minutes before the top of the hour. american media loves the scandal. can we really trust many in the media to have fair and balanced coverage about the one unfolding at the dnc? >> they told us to shut up and basically let them win the election. i use the word rig. i do not like the cancer, okay? i call it cancer. ainsley: kayleigh mac eny. brian: chairman for the rnc, you join us right now and you are weighing in on this. i can't believe donna brazile writes a book and wants to disavow it in every interview. what's going on here? >> it's kind of bizarre. she should endorse the claims in her book because we know them to be true. the bernie sanders camp has proven that but the radio silence from the media is really puzzling. in the wake of these allegations, you had a sitting democratic senator, elizabeth warren coming out and saying yes this election was riddle and not a single network, not abc, nbc, cbs devoted one second to these

claims. steve: right. >> it's appalling. steve: kayleigh, let's turn this 180. if this were a republican revealing that the deck was stacked against all the other republicans, and then somebody came out running the rnc and spilled all the beans, would that be a big story. >> it would be a huge story. it would be explosive story. now they choose to ignore this because it's the democratic party. it's libel, it's militias, it's nomalicious,it's not right. they spend so much time russian collusion conspiracy theory they tell us all the while all these viable accusations from hillary clinton from uranium one, to the clinton foundation,. steve: dossier. >> the dossier, those are the real conspiracy theories. that's what the media tells us. ainsley: kayleigh, i was at the airport the other day delta lounge and trying to see this lady try to change the channel. she started screaming out to staff members.

steve: which channel? ainsley: she kept saying get this fake news off. do you think it's back fired on the mainstream media because the folks they are not stupid. they know what's happening. >> ainsley, there is no doubt about it. that poll that came out that showed 46% of americans believe that the media makes up stories and another 10 to 15 members, they were undecided about president trump. so the american people see through it that's the encouraging part. one thing i really want to point out, ainsley is about these donna brazile allegations, i worked with her for a year. she was reveered where i worked. i was told she was a matriarch of the democratic party. and then now these same people told me shae should revere donna brazile she is the matriarch of the party are in a take down effort to smear her. why the 180? steve: last night she was on with tucker carlson and tucker said that he had highly informed sources that said that cnn hosts were told to discredit donna brazile. it sounds like you are saying the same thing. >> well, it certainly seems that way because i was told

by many at that network that this is someone who to be respected, reveered. ainsley: really? >> yes. ainsley: you were told that? >> yes. i was told that matriarch of the party by many of my fellow commentators. now all the sudden it's a smear effort to take her down because she is hillary clinton. brian: she says the democratic party was left in tatters because the former president of the united states used it, got his money, any money he raised he put to his super pac. three huge egos, the clinton email, obama email and debbie wasserman schultz ego combined to destroy the dnc. what is the problem with that story? why isn't that a major story for every major newscast. >> it should be the mode dison ran day for democratic candidates seems to be self-promotion, entitlement to the candidacy, to the nomination. it's always a coronation. they come in and take the appear rat tell us of the democratic party, use it for their own selfish purposes

and guess who loses? democratic voters who are trusting this organization to run unbiased, neutral primaries. steve: now they will think twice. ainsley: so proud of you. you and i worked together overnight. then you went to cnn. you were the only conservative on a panel of six democrats. brian: i thought for a second ainsley said she used to watch cnn. ainsley: i do watch it cnn occasionally. i wasn't the lady in the airport. you are doing a great job,. >> thank you. ainsley: you are welcome. steve: we have been talking about several clinton scandals from dossier to the shady uranium one deal. could hillary clinton still be in big trouble? republicans calling for new investigations congressman jim jordan is going to join us live shortly. ainsley: but first, but first question mark. actor turned congressional candidate antonio sabato jr. next. i don't know if i read that right. brian: i don't think you did. steve: didn't you teach her about the teleprompter?

ainsley: on sunday, we experienced the deadliest church shooting in america. a man shot and killed 26 people in texas. some liberals were very quick to call for gun control, despite the shooter being shot by a man close by the scene. pop star miley cyrus weighing in on the tragic situation posting this, quote: it's hard to conceptualize that a sane human could commit such a hideous crime. but i am sorry, donald trump, this absolutely is a guns situation. so, is this a gun issue or do you think it's a mental health issue or something else? here to weigh in on this is actor and g.o.p. candidate in the state of california antonio sabato jr.

hey good to see you antonio. >> it's a pleasure to be here. ainsley: the folks in liberal hollywood are blaming the guns. you say it's a different problem. >> listen, the liberals in california are pretty much destroying this state. that's why i'm running for congress in my district of 26 ventura county i want to make a difference. this is not about gun control. this is about mental issues. this person was deranged, needed some mental help. and we need to reach those people and we need to try to help them. we need to go to congress and help people with both parties and actually spend money where it needs to be spent. but, you know, how hollywood does these things and always talks about guns. let's try to get rid of every single gun in the world and see what happens. the bad guys will always get the guns. this guy was deranged and evil, plain and simple. we need to get down to the source and try to help the american people so they are safer. but just to talk about just getting rid of guns worldwide is not going to happen. ainsley: how can we better coordinate the federal mental health programs that already exist? >> well, we are spending a

lot of money. millions of dollars are being spent. we are not reaching to the cause and we are not reaching the problem. you know, i want to work with congresswoman maxine walters. i want to work with my friend out of tampa. i want to work with both parties and talk where people are willing to listen. we have got to go to washington and make sure the american people are safe. we have to spend millions of dollars where it needs to be spent. just to always talk about guns. guns don't shoot themselves. you know, you have to actually pick it up and pull the trigger. and these people who are mentally ill are not being helped. how has this man able to get the gun? did he steal it? we don't know. we need to find out. we need to talk to law enforcement and need to talk to the locals and get together from every state we need to work together. ainsley: i don't know much about the type of guns but we had a guest on yesterday that said the very type of rifle this guy was shooting inside the church is a very similar type of rifle that the guy who was the hero came out and used. so, that just proves it's not a gun problem. >> right. ainsley: thank you so much

antonio, good luck with your run next year. >> my pleasure. ainsley: president trump in beijing with a strong message for the people of china and north korea. we are live traveling with the president at the top of the hour.

trump: the united states is committed to the complete and permanent of denuclearization of new york. >> the north koreans and the chinese volleyball that either china will take care of this problem orwell. >> leaked questions to the hillary campaign during a cnn town hall. >> i made sure that all candidates -- i didn't want them blindsided. >> faith is stronger than evil. no attack, no act of violence will ever break our spirit or diminish the faith of the american people. >> i think mitch mcconnell tomorrow should tender his resignation and say, hey, after we get taxes done, i will step aside. brian: the california branch of the naacp claiming the

national anthem is racist and congress should change it. >> removing the national anthem from america is like removing the heart from america. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ steve: well, that's tomorrow. thursday morning live from our mezzanine level and about a half an hour ago, we told you about the uk researcher that said if you hear christmas music too early, it stresses you out because it reminds you of how much stuff you've got to do. we all love christmas music. but how have you felt?

jake rights, i play christmas carols year-round. i feel great every time. but the desired's going to be beach hardware down in florida. they say they pulled their customers to see if they're ready for christmas music, and it was 50/50. so this is the ultimate fair and balance question. ainsley: i love it. no, that reminds me. we were little. there was a house completely decorated in christmas decorations, and you could go through and take a tower. steve: in your hometown? ainsley: they had the scene on the stove. like, the donkey was next to the eye. jesus was on another eye. my grandmother is such a neat freak and asked the lady and said how do you take all of this down? how long does it take? she goes we just keep it up year-round. my grandmother was, like, are you kidding me? it stressed her out. brian: with he cannot the same stuff together for my grandparents. the little drummer boy is down to just knees. every limb is broken, but we

keep it around. ainsley: because kids playing with him? brian: i think so. no one admits to playing with the drummer boy. steve: the christmas decorations eventually he had end up being the lint light. brian: let me tell you what else we have going. straight to a fox news alert. ainsley: that stern message from president trump to his chinese counterpart. steve: kevin cork is live in beijing with new details on the president's firm stance against north korea. kevin. >> you guys are right about that. flavin visit that has been nuance, there was no mistake in president trump's message to the chinese as it relates to north korea. reign in the north, orwell. no question about that and the president made that very clear. clearly, this has been offensive by the chinese. they wanted to make the president very comfortable and the first lady as well. you saw that in the red carpet

and the steak dinner this evening. everything in contrast to what we've seen by far. welcome over at the great hall. now, all of this has been in a couple of days of exchanges. saw two powers of agree that know. north korea shouldn't become a nuclear power. >> united states is committed to the complete and permanent denuclearization of north korea. so important. china can fix this problem easily. and quickly. and i am calling on china and your great president to hopefully work on it very hard. >> they could. they won't. at least that's what history tells us. by the way, next is also vietnam guys. we'll have it covered. but for now, back to you. steve: kevin, thank you very much. by the way, there's some photographs circulating of sarah huckabee sanders. she was briefing reporters yesterday explaining why they

didn't go to the demilitarized zone, and it was really cold and one of the u.s. soldiers gave her his jacket. so she's seen in camo. brian: right. ainsley: or not. brian: meanwhile, four minutes after the top of the hour. the weird question is how is the president being perceived overseas? you look at japan and korea, he's been pretty strong, it seems, and well received and given great respect. how is he so respected overseas, and seems to have a different feeling back here? answer that question. >> i think you've got to realize that the american president is just one of the huge, great, global brands. and he is penetrating corners of the global consciousness that i think few other presidents have ever done. but his method of tweeting, no

matter how rambunctious those tweets may be, they're communicating. in an age that people have been turned off politics, it's more direct and more communicative. steve: and how many nations around the globe are looking for leaders more like donald trump and less like people in the past? brian: well, in china, you can't tweet. so he had to go to air force one where it's equipped and tweeted out this morning and said i can't believe how well i've been treated in china. ainsley: had a little video yesterday where she was reciting confucius. steve: meanwhile, let's talk about former white house chief strategist steve bannon. after he left the white house, he made it very clear he was going to do everything he could to force republicans to advance the president's agenda. they did very well, he told sean hannity last night in the house. the problem is mitch

mcconnell, and he wants mitch mcconnell to resign as soon as he possibly can. watch this. >> the house has actually voted on i think 180 bills that the senate has not taken up, including many bills that would be a very difficult vote for joe manchin and john tester and heidi hidecamp and some of these other red state democrats that we need to take down in 2018 and mitch mcconnell has refused to do it. i have to tell you, i think mitch mcconnell ought to bring unity. i think mitch mcconnell ought to tender his resignation and resign as soon as taxes are done. i think mitch mcconnell tomorrow should tender his resignation and say, hey, i will step aside, and we have a revote on the majority leader because there needs to be a sense of urgency in the senate. he should tender his resignation tonight after tax cuts. steve: so, in other words,

mr. mcconnell, resign now. but just get the tax thing through because the peril for republicans is because mishandle the affordable care act repeal and replacing so badly in the senate. if they blow taxes, the republicans are going to be dead in both houses. brian: putting up their former tax reform today. the house did it earlier. they still have to come up with $74 million of a shortfall. still working that out. the president is working mod red democrats. in the end, if there's somebody out there, they can get senator flake, corker, collins, rand paul, and john mccain to vote the same way as the rest of the caucus, i think he should hand over the gavel, but i just don't see it. it's a matter of convincing them that they don't want to do. steve: but why don't do something? the house is passing a 180 bill and what has the senate done? ainsley: when are they up for reelection? that's interesting. steve: every six years. brian: because they have such acution in the house. it's an unfair comparison.

steve: but ultimately, people want to get stuff done. and when they see that the senate is just sitting there with a stack of bills that high. ainsley: 180 bills. steve: at least pick them up and say okay. i know this isn't going to pass, but we want to get everybody on the record. ainsley: mitch and the gop have got to go. steve: john tweeted i disagree with steve. it is more of mitch keeping things from getting done. it is so-called preps california, new york, illinois, and a couple other states. those people want a handout from the rest of taxpayers in the united states. brian: and if i can get that typing noise for this. kathy e-mailed he is right. republicans should stick together. democrats do. steve: now, here's one of the problems with the tax bill. i was reading, i think it was in business daily. investors business daily. they said that in this particular tax bill, one fifth of the middle class will wind

up getting a $500 tax increase. the whole idea was for taxes to go down for the middle class. but something like 20% are going to wind up with a tax. ainsley: the president needs to say, no, that's not what i ran on. steve: absolutely not. brian: a complicated situation, but we can put it onto a postcard. which means i don't know. yeah, but i don't want to do that for 500 bucks. ainsley: exactly. jillian has other headlines for us this morning. >> that typing noise was excellent, by the way. the best thing i've ever heard. >> absolutely. good morning to you guys at home. let's get you caught up at home. starting with this. a benghazi militant charged with helping pull off the 2012 attack. charged with conspiracy to provide support and resources resulting in death. could face life in prison if convicted. the suspected ringleader of the attacks is also on trial on terrorism charges. four americans were killed in the attack, including

ambassador chris stevens. and up to a foot of snow hitting the plains. in washington state even opening early because of the winter weather blast. that weather heading toward the northeast. for boston, new york city, and washington, d.c. on saturday morning. get the gloves, scarves, coats, anything else you have. a 93-year-old world war ii veteran has a new title. mayor. defeating incumbent who is seeking a second term in new jersey. the underdog telling a reporter he wore out two pairs of shoes campaigning door-to-door. the navy vet says he decided to run after a pair of whistle-blower lawsuits involving the police department wound up costing the bureau over $1 million in settlements. congrats to him. a look at your headlines. we'll send it back to you guys. two pairs of shoes. cute. steve: well, we've been talking about several clinton scandals from the dossier to the shady uranium one deal.

so could hillary clinton still be in big trouble? we're going to have one of the republicans jim george join us live from dc next. ainsley: and what happens when matthew mcconaughey shows up at your door with a turkey? you're going to find out next worrying about your big... about the client dinner. you gonna wear? hannah. did you get that email i sent you? i need you to respond... ...before you wake up. when life keeps you up... zzzquil helps you fall asleep in less than 20 minutes. because sleep is a beautiful thing.

you've probably seen me running all over the country in search of our big idaho potato truck. but not any more. i am done with that. ooh, ooh hot - just gonna stay home on the farm, eat a beautiful idaho potato, and watch tv with my dog... tv anncr: the big idaho potato truck pulled into town today and it's really a sight to see. oh man...let's go.... (distant) you comin', boy? sfx: (dog) gulp! woof.

steve: tuesday night capitol hill with several freedom caucus members now demanding hillary clinton be investigated. brian: yeah, why not? millions of dollars to fusion gps? republican congressman jim jordan house chair of freedom caucus joins us now. congressman, what intrigues you. why now jump in? what makes you think this is where the rubber hits the road? >> think of what we've learned. we're paying fusion gps for the dossier. the author of the dossier was on the fbi's payroll, at least was reimbursed for the dossier. now, was that for the dossa yay or something else?

we don't know but he was on the fbi payroll for this time period. the dossier was likely the base fo want to see fisa court order. and then katherine harris from fox just reported a couple of days ago the idea that the fusion gps founder glenn simpson was hanging out with russian lawyers and met with donald trump jr. in new york. was hanging out with her the day before and the day after the meeting. so all of that i think cries out for we better look into this situation and everything else associated with it. steve: okay. so you're calling for the attorney general appoint a special council. do you not trust robert mueller? >> well, we call for the attorney general to look into clinton, comey, lynch, fusion gps. three and a half months ago, we called for this. so of course this needs to happen. robert mueller, i think, in light of what we've also recently learned relative to the uranium one deal certainly seems compromising to me where

we learned about kickbacks and extortion and bribery, and he doesn't tell congress, he doesn't tell the country, and he doesn't tell the committee responsible for deciding whether that deal can go forward or not. i think that puts him in a somewhat precarious position. so i think that needs to be looked in as well. but our point is look into all of this. and the best thing would be to do is look for jeff sessions to name a special council. something three and a half members asked south dakota for months ago. brian: what is jeff sessions doing, number one? we have this terrorist downtown. we put him into the court system. he was crazy about that when he was a senator. we don't know what he's doing on this investigation. all we have is a bunch of people who recused themselves as soon as something needs to be unwound. >> he's going to get an earful of questions next week when he comes and testifies in front of the house judiciary committee. mr. rosenstein is supposed to be in front of the house judiciary committee at some point later. three and a half months ago we sent a letter asking for a

special council. september 28th, five of us met with him and said what are you doing? what we have so far is nothing silent. steve: so far i think what a lot of people think what james comey essentially let hillary clinton off the hook and didn't think charges should be against her, people thought okay. she's not in any legal peril going forward. but you're here today to tell us that's not the case. >> well, we'll see. we should vet of. i mean, think about all of the stuff that went on in 2016. why would loretta lynch tell james comey to call the clinton investigation the matter not an investigation. why would loretta lynch meet just one day before the benghazi report comes out, five days before secretary clinton is scheduled to be interviewed. why would she meet with bill clinton on the tarmac in phoenix? and why after communicating about that meeting, why not use her real name and use elizabeth carlyle. if you're talking about grandkids and golf, you can

use your real name. we have all of these questions about 2016 and what we just learned. if this doesn't cry out for a special council or more investigations from the house oversight committee and judiciary committee, i don't know what does, and that's what we're doing. brian: 20 seconds left. what cost $10 million? why did chris get $10 million from the dnc and hillary clinton? and we know it was the same account after donna brazil's book. >> i do not know but, again, underscoring why we need to investigate. why we need to get answers for the american people and these critical questions because they're tired of the double standard. one set of rules. but a different set if your name is clinton, comey, lynch, they're tired of that, so let's get this done. steve: all right. let's see whether or not the department of justice and attorney general is listen to you, jim jordan of ohio. sir, thank you very much. >> thank you. steve: he makes a good case. it's really hard to poke holes in it. steve: meanwhile, coming up, how is the agency testing threats? the results are in, and let's

just hope you're not flying today, the script writer wrote. brian: now dave ramsey is sharing his money along with a team of financial experts. that will be next. we're on a mission to show drip coffee drinkers, it's time to wake up to keurig. wakey! wakey! rise and shine! oh my gosh! how are you? well watch this. i pop that in there. press brew. that's it. so rich. i love it. that's why you should be a keurig man! full-bodied. are you sure you're describing the coffee and not me?

ainsley: some quick headlines for you. he'll be back for justice. those chilling words written by that guy right there, a mexican man that was convicted of murder before his execution. that is what he wrote. reuben killed by lethal injection in texas late last night. he served two decades on death row after raping and murdering his 16-year-old cousin back in 1997. and the first dreamer that was deported under president trump is arrested for trying to illegally sneak back into the u.s. again.

23-year-old juan montes arrested by border patrol. deported back in february but the fed said he left the country voluntarily, which canceled his dhaka privileges. steve: we have a team of financial experts here to answer some of your financial questions and, in fact, they're going to do just that. dave ramsey brought the group with him this morning. we have dave ramsey followed by chris hogan, chris brown, and anthokneel. guys, good morning to all of you. >> good morning. steve: you know, dave, in the tease, ainsley said that you were a guy that went from rags to riches. but she left out that you went out you went back to rags and back to riches. >> i did. we lost the opportunity and got a opportunity to do it all over. we got a ph.d. in dumb. steve: you have an app that you guys are pretty proud of. >> we spent years on this and

several millions of dollars, and it's the world's best budgeting app now. it's called every dollar. it's free. it takes about ten minutes to set your budget up and going. and millions of people are using it. >> and it's called everyday app. >> every dollar. steve: every dollar. thank you very much. first question for you from idaho. my son just started a masters program. he doesn't have much money and rarely asks for help. my mom and i are in a position to help him financially. how can we offer best help without giving somebody an allowance? >> you know, when somebody is misbehaving him with money or misbehaving in their life and you give them money, you're an enabler. but when someone's doing good stuff, and these are people you love, and you give them money, that's called an investment. this is a great kid. yeah, i don't care whether you give him allowance, give him some money, give him some support, he's not begging, he's not entitled, he's not being a little wimp. so step in there and help him. i love it.

steve: all right. chris hogan, next up. of course, you literally wrote the book on requirement. terry asks a question from missouri. my wife and i are finally empty nesters and are $165,000 in debt. our bills are more than our monthly income, and we feel stuck. how can we get on track and still be able to retire? >> yeah. this is a very real situation that a lot of people find themself in. what you need to do is sit down you and your husband, take a collective deep breath and let's get serious about getting out of debt. debt is a threat to your retirement dreams. so you need to have a game plan. lists them out smallest to biggest, and you're talking about running out of month with your monthly budget. you have to scale back and understand the difference between a want and a need. you have to take care of the four walls. we teach people your housing, clothing, food, and transportation. everything else needs to stop. and then i would finally encourage you to brainstorm ways to bring in some extra money, and let's get serious about getting out of debt and getting yourself moving forward. steve: all right. louise was watching when you were here earlier. she has a question for you,

chris. it's this: soon, i will become into approximately $61,000, i'm 50 years old. what is the best way for me to invest that into my future? >> well, i would say sit down and understand where your nest egg is, it's a matter of where you are and how much you have. she doesn't say how much she has put away totally for retirement. sit down with a retirement professional. if you're completely out of debt, that's fantastic. build up an emergency fund. an investment professional, we have smart investor pros that we use all around the country that could properly guide her. steve: so don't listen to the neighbor who made a lot of money in the stock market. >> avoid stupid like the playing. steve: chris brown, a lot of people listen to you on the radio and, in fact, chris in ohio wrote, obviously, has listened to you because can you discuss the emergency fund, as they hear about the b on the radio. if i lose my income, should i cut unnecessary experiences like charity i believe, giving

my hsa contributions until i find a new position. >> well, emergency fund is, obviously, if you've lived for quite some time that you know emergencies do happen. it's three to six months is what we recommend of expenses. not of income, of expenses. and you say that just in case of emergency happens. in the case of loss of income, i i want you to stop all hsa contributions. steve: hsa is. >> health savings accounts. anything that's not necessary, including giving an generosity. just stop giving you have no income. but when the income comes back, you jump back into the monetary giving and also the hsa contributions. steve: all right. and finally anthony, who's an expert with the millennials. charlotte in dc. i graduated from college next month. i started a new job in january. i'm going to make $70,000. congratulations, charlotte. i have no debt and emergency fund, and i contribute to my roth ira. i'm not sure what my next financial goals should be.

much. her. >> i want to say congratulations. you are ahead of the game. you know, you're making $70,000, you're out of debt. hey, right now, your future is about you and what you desire. so what i want you to do is sit down and dream. do you want to get married? do you want to buy a house? and whatever that is, start saving towards that. but here's the thing. once you get into your job, i want you to go ahead and invest into your 401(k) and max that out because i want you to start preparing for your future. but as of right now, you're debt-free. so enjoy where you are. but also, keep the foundation solid for your future. steve: all right. great advice, everybody. once again, check out the every dollar app. dave and chris and chris and anthony, job well done. all right. meanwhile, straight ahead, he walked off his post and pled guilty to desertion. now bo bergdahl could be cashing in big time. wait until you hear how he's going to do that. and one year apparently not enough to get over hillary clinton's loss a year ago. so liberals screaming at the

[screaming] steve: i hope he feels better.

ainsley: no, it's not halloween. no, it is not halloween. those are not werewolves howling. those are people that are mad that donald trump won. president trump won. brian: and there's a lot of people still not over it. the protests started almost the next day right here in new york city. steve: that's right. we heard they would howl at the sky on the first anniversary, and they did just that all across the country. let's bring in diamond and silk. you have seen them online. they are trump supporters and online social media supporters as well. ladies, what do you make of these people who did not support donald trump howling in anger yesterday that he was -- has spent one year as president? >> you know, these teary eyed snowflakes. >> uh-huh. >> what they need to do is stop yelling at the top of their lungs, it's not going to change the outcome of this election. they need to get behind this president so that we can move this country forward. they need to practice acceptance. >> and, by the way, this is what babies do.

babies cry like that. they need to put a bottle in their mouth or change their diaper. brian: well, let me ask you something. if hillary won, would you be doing the same thing? >> oh, absolutely not. >> no. >> because we were taught that whoever was the president, you respect that so that you can move the country forward. >> that's right. that's right. steve: all right. well, we saw one of your tweets that you had put out after the elections of a couple of states on tuesday where, essentially, you were saying that ed made a big mistake is not supporting the president's message. a message to these republican -- if we can move the teleprompter. politicians running for office. if you don't support our president and his agenda, then the people will not support you. #alwaysbeon trump. ainsley: always bet on trump. steve: bet on trump. what are you trying to say there? >> what i'm trying to say is simply republicans need to stop folding like paper.

they need to stop giving into the left. they need to support the president, his agenda, so that they can win elections. and if they don't, they will not win another election. >> that's right. and how do you expect to win a baseball game if you bench your best batter. >> that's right. brian: and what does that mean? >> that means you don't take and throw our president under the bus. >> that's right. >> if something is wrong with him. the president won over 1,700,000 votes in virginia. we would have won that had they embraced the president's agenda and embraced the president. you may fool mother nature, but you will not fool trump supporters. >> and president trump is the best player in the political game because he won an outsider. he won against a politician. >> that's right. ainsley: well, hillary's saying she's taking credit for what happened in virginia and what happened in new jersey with the democrats winning in both of these states that typically vote democratically. what's your response to that? >> well, you have to understand that hillary may

have a mind problem. she's the one running around with the books still asking everybody what happened. she don't even realize she lost an election. she's not the president, and she needs to go home and sit down somewhere and rock her grandbaby. >> that's right. steve: all right. also, i don't know if you were watching television last night, but steve bannon, former white house chief strategist sat down with sean hannity and essentially, ladies, said that mitch mcconnell has got to quit because he's not getting anything done. steve bannon said that there were 180 bills passed by the house and are now sitting in the u.s. senate. actually, as it turns out, there are 308. do you both think that mr. mcconnell should go to get somebody in there who does more? >> well, if mitch mcconnell is not capable of doing his job, he do need to step down. or steve bannon, clean house. period. brian: right.

steve bannon has that type of power? >> oh, yes. oh, yes. >> uh-huh. >> clean house. we sent those people up there to do a job. you are working for the american people. do your job. do what you're paid to do. brian: i just want to take this side. so you guys are a team, and you agree on most things. a lot of people in the senate don't agree. what if you don't agree. ainsley: that's right. >> if we don't agree, we agree until we disagree on something, we agree. i don't know how unbelievably what do you disagree on? >> i don't know. nothing. steve: i have a question for you. what about christmas music. we were talking about this earlier where if you start hearing it too early, it stresses you out because then you're reminded i've got to buy all of these presents, i have to book travel, i've got to plan a party. is it ever too early to start christmas music? because it's playing right now before thanksgiving. >> i love it.

it puts me in the christmas mood. i have to figure out what we're going to be doing, what we're going to be eating. so i absolutely love it. >> and it reminds people to go to the diamond and silk store and get our bowel of stupid. ainsley: what is that bowl of stupid. >> the bowl of stupid is if people do stupid things. it's not that they're stupid, but they've done something stupid. we put them in a bowl of stupid weekly. that's our bowl of stupid weekly segment, and we're selling the bowl of stupid mostly. ainsley: who makes it in the bowl most? >> a lot of people make it in the bowl. if you do something stupid, you're going in that bowl. steve: so this is a perfect gift for somebody on the shopping list this christmas season. >> absolutely. the bowl of stupid. steve: diamond and silk, ladies and gentlemen. brian: silk and diamond. steve: thank you very much. no, diamond got first

spelling. brian: doesn't matter. steve: all right. brian: they speak in one voice. ainsley: i wonder how you decide who gets diamond and who gets silk. when picking your name. steve: more good questions for the next time they're on. i wonder if they're nicknames from childhood. i don't know. jillian. ainsley: how cute are they? they're so fun and entertaining. >> adorable. all right. that's right. let's get you caught up on your news this morning. serving undercover tests revealing shocking security flaws at our nation's airports. homeland security officials telling lawmakers the tsa is failing to detect dangerous weapons and explosives at extremely high rates. [explosion] >> that video from tsa training shows just how powerful a small bomb can be. these new findings come weeks after acting dhs secretary said terrorists are looking to carry out more 9/11-style attacks. disgraced army sergeant bo

bergdahl could soon get a $300,000 payday now that his dissertation trial is over, the army must decide whether or not to award him backpay from when he was captured by the taliban. but could also determine they owe him money. earlier this month, bergdahl was dishonorably discharged and demoted for deserting his post in afghanistan in 2009. all right. matthew mcconaughey celebrates his 40th birthday by surprising a kentucky town with free turkey. watch.

brian: i love that. but wasn't he pushing alcohol? ainsley: don't they go together? eating your thanksgiving dinner while having a drink. steve: that's quite a drink. ainsley: i love it. brian: it's, like, hey, matthew, thanks. where do i stick this bird? ainsley: oh, are you kidding? if he showed up at my house, my mom would be so excited. not because of him. she'll find room in her freezer for that. steve: that's right. indeed. they always do. ainsley: she buys it on sale like months in advance. steve: it's expensive. ainsley: in other news, set out to show the reality of war when he was deployed, so he grabbed a camera. army chaplin justin roberts will join us live to tell us what happened next. steve: and she once flew navy flighter jet and next our own leah gabriel for veterans day weekend. this weekend here in new york cy patrick woke up with back pain.

named for a battle for the vietnam war, and i'm standing here with the commander for the carrier strike group two, admiral steve evans. admiral, nice to see you this morning. tell us why it's so important for you to be here and for your sailors to be celebrating veterans day weekend here in new york city. >> well, every veterans day is special. as we honor the service of the veterans that have served our nation. and we're just extremely happy to have the uss sullivan here to be alongside new yorkers here on veterans week. >> and one of the things that's very special is you have six vietnam veterans who are onboard who are getting that welcome home that they didn't get back in the '60s and '70s. celebrating veterans day and celebrating veterans day with them. >> well, it's special for those men who fought in that battle at the start in 1968. and they're able to serve with sailors who were on for a significant event in their lives. so riding at sea with them.

getting to know them, and establishing that legacy that we continue to service in our country. >> here to celebrate veterans day weekend with us. just a reminder. our sailors and our airmen and our marines and the army. steve: all right. leah, we're having a little problem, broadband problem with the audio portion of that. we thank you very much. of course, we will be observing veterans day this weekend. brian: we heard enough. we know the appropriate great interview. great job. meanwhile, 11 minutes until the top of the hour. ainsley: he set out to show the reality of war when he was deployed, so he grabbed a camera. army chaplin justin roberts will tell us live what happened next

how much money do you think you'll need in retirement? then we found out how many years that money would last them. how long do you think we'll keep -- oooooohhh! you stopped! you're gonna leave me back here at year 9? how did this happen? it turned out, a lot of people fell short, of even the average length of retirement. we have to think about not when we expect to live to, but when we could live to. let's plan for income that lasts all our years in retirement. prudential. bring your challenges.

brian: our next guest carried a camera during haze his deployment in afghanistan telling soldiers' experiences and story. for example. >> so much gunfire my entire life. and we had been in a ton of firefights, but that was by far the worst. >> there were multiple positions firing on us. he had to make peace with the fact that i was going to die. brian: wow. in a new documentary no greater love. our next guest set out to bridge the gap between the reality of war and the perception of being deployed. joining us right now to provide that, who's providing that this weekend as his movie debuts, retired army chaplin, justin roberts. justin, thanks for being here. >> thank you. brian: when did you realize i have to tell this story the way it is, rather than people perceive it to be? >> you know what? part way through -- and i always tell people this is not a film about the war. this is a film about my friends. and it was part way through

this deployment that i just kept watching my friends commit amazing acts of valor and sacrifice, and this is just i wanted the country to understand these stories. i don't want them to be forgotten. so halfway through the deployment, we kind of saw that we had something. brian: where were you in afghanistan? >> it was province along the border of pakistan. brian: 2010 to 2011. >> yes, sir. brian: how much action were you in the middle of? >> you know, it was firefights roughly every day, roughly every other day. so if you go outside the wire, something is going to be happening, and they were regularly shooting at the bases. brian: and what you did is you wanted to talk about what it was like before the attack, during the attack, and after the attack. >> as soon as we got there, flood of people started walking out. families, kids. as soon as you saw that, you knew it was, like, okay. the fight is coming. >> so we were fully aware of what we were getting into. no, i take that back.

we thought we were fully aware. you'll never be ready for what happened that day. brian: so they walked out because they saw you as a safe haven? >> well, they knew a firefight was coming. brian: and they wanted out. >> and they wanted out because it was going to be a big battle. the last time the russians went into that valley, they were slaughter. so the enemy thought this was a safe place for them to keep a headquarters, and we were changing straight in. brian: and what do you think we're going to get from seeing your -- the vision of battle through your eyes as opposed to what we think being back here in america? >> i mean, this film is just the lessons that i learned from these soldiers, you know? these guys were my friends. and the things that impressed me the most and what i saw was that behind every single act of valor and sacrifice was a selfless love. and so that's why we called the film no greater love. brian: did you have trouble adjusting to the real world when you got back here? >> it took a little while, and i think i'm still adjusting.

brian: does this help? >> this absolutely helps. because i think for civilians and friends, that helps to create empathy on a conversation of how we come home from this war. so that's the hope of this film that we can get the conversation out there, that we can start to raise awareness. brian: and the great news is it's veterans day weekend. we can go to no greater love.com. >> nogreaterlovemovie.com, and it has where we're coming out with this film and the stories behind it. brian: thank you for your service. thank you for doing this movie. i can't wait to see it. back in a moment. more fox and friends in just a second. here's the story of green mountain coffee roasters sumatra reserve told in the time it takes to brew your cup. let's go to sumatra. where's sumatra?
