they had to pass two certification tests in bombs and explosive. congratulations to the graduates! thanks for joining us. have a good weekend. here's shep. >> shepard: it's noon on the west coast. 2:00 in pensacola, florida where president trump will hold a campaign rally tonight. roy moore is not scheduled to attend but the event is a few miles from his state. with alabama's special election this coming tuesday, could today's rally give more a lift and help him get pasted accusations of sexual harassment? chris wallace is among our guests. protesters hitting the streets demonstrating against president trump's decision to formally recognize jerusalem as israel's capitol. we're tracking the marching and waiting for developments. and the blistering wild fires in southern california turning dozens more homes to ash. high winds driving the flames

forward and creating risky conditions for all the crews on the front lines. busy news day. let's get to it. good friday afternoon from the fox news deck. first today, president trump headed to the florida panhandle later this afternoon where he will talk taxes and stump for roy moore. the white house said the president didn't have time to go to alabama to campaign for moore, but he's going almost to alabama. tonight's event is in pensacola, miles away from the bama border. the pensacola television market is in pensacola mobile. the president will have a chance to rally republicans in alabama while keeping some distance from roy moore, which is on its face ridiculous as the president is all-in on his candidacy. women have accused roy moore of sexually assaulting him or harassing him when he was in his 30s and some of them were teens.

while endorsing roy moore, the president blasted doug jones while criticizing nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. the president tweeted the last thing is we need a liberal in the senate where we have so little margin already. the puppet jones would vote against us 100% of the time. he's bad on crime, life, border, vets, guns and military. vote roy moore. democrats accuse the president of endorsing a child molester. robert mueller denies any sexual misconduct and he's not charged with any crime. the white house is officially calling tonight's speech a tax reform event. the press secretary sarah sanders says the president believes the accusations against roy moore are troubling but the people of bam should make the decision. a former campaign adviser tells the "wall street journal" that the president does not want to risk the people seeing him alongside roy moore.

so he will tweet support for roy moore and he will urge alabamians to vote for roy moore, but he doesn't want to be standing next to roy moore. the adviser tells the "wall street journal" that trump is trying to avoid the photograph. john roberts is live on the north lawn. hello, john. >> shep, good afternoon to you. the white house disabusing this is any notion of a campaign event related to the roy moore campaign and the election tuesday. i'm being told by white house officials there's nothing in the presidented prepared marks related to roy moore or his democratic opponent, doug jones. they pointed out it's 25 minutes of prepared marks and there's lots of room for the president to ad lib in there. all bets are off when it comes to the president ad libbing. let's to what hogan gibley said on "fox and friends" this morning. >> the president has a house in

florida and the people of pensacola help put donald trump in office. this is a thank you to them and all the hard-working americans that this president is finally giving a voice to. >> that's what the white house is saying. let's put up the map again. pensacola in the panhandle is a mere nine miles away from the alabama-florida border. it's 31 miles away from the famous floribama bar and 51 miles away from mobile. it's expected to have a lot of alabama license plates. what will the president talk about? he will do a year in review, priorities set and accomplished and talk about tax reform. two members of the house told me they expect to have the bill on the president's desk the afternoon of december 19. he will talk about the strong economy, the jobs report with 228,000 jobs added, unemployment down to 4.1%. economic security, border security, trade, north korea,

isis and on to the 2018 agenda which he will talk about the need for infrastructure, rebuilding, welfare reform, veterans affairs and immigration. he also plans to talk about the democrats again saying as he has so many times they're obstructionists and also stressing the need to fund government and avoid a government shut down at all costs, shep. so this is going to be a lot of red meat for conservatives, many of whom will be in alabama just nine miles away from where the president will be speaking. people he hopes will get out to the polls on tuesday and vote for roy moore. >> shepard: war eagle -- >> but it's not about roy moore. >> shepard: of course not. there's some changes at the white house i understand today, john. >> they're not coming for a few weeks now. dina powell, the deputy national security adviser for strategy said that she was going to stay at the white house for a year and she announced today through an intermediary that she will be leaving the white house sometime late january or early february.

dina powell has been a rock star at the national security council. she's been involved in all the big negotiations. any time we're on a big foreign trip, she's there, h.r. mcmaster recognizing her contribution in glowing terms today in a statement to the press saying her sage advice help provide options to the president and her strong relationships across the u.s. government and internationally help drive execution of the president's decisions. she's one of the most talented and effective leaders with whom i have ever served. she's moving back to new york city in february. her family stayed there while she was commuting back and forth. she's going to continue to stay involved though. in a statement, jared kushner says she's been one of the driving forces trying to put together a peace deal between the israelis and the palestinians and she will remain in involved in some level in that pursuit. and something unusual.

the president came out to swear in kirstjen nielsen as the new dhs secretary. just as she was coming to the podium to make her statement, the white house press office shooed the press corps out of the room. you can see them saying time to go. we didn't get to hear what she had to say in response to her being sworn in and taking over the reins of dhs. i don't know what the reason for that was, shep. i have to tell you, i covered a lot of these swearing ins. i was there in the roosevelt room, been an observer and never have seen that before. so curious as to exactly what was behind that, shep. >> shepard: not sure what was behind it. the effect of it was, reporters didn't ask questions. >> didn't get a chance. we have one more chance as he leaves for pensacola. we'll be there doing our best. >> shepard: thanks, john. >> happy weekend. >> shepard: it's finally here. another 50 minutes.

as roy moore receives the full support of president trump, one of the women accusing the candidate of sexual misconduct is talking about tuesday's special election. beverly young nelson says she was 16 and roy moore was in his 30s when he groped her and tried to force her to perform a sex act in his car. >> it sickens me to wonder what may go on with him if he gets into office maybe. he could be doing this still. we don't know. and then again, i hope he's changed. >> as i reported, multiple women say roy moore sexually harassed or assaulted them including some that say they were teenagers when it happened. but roy moore has repeatedly denied the allegations. and the moore campaign says there's no chance that he will show tonight. >> yeah, that's right. they say he's staying in alabama. deputy campaign manager hannah ford tells fox news "judge moore is campaigning hard and engaging with alabama voters.

he will not be in pensacola but is grateful to have the president rallying conservatives near alabama. we're encouraging supporters to attend the rally and look forward to victory on the 12th." doug jones is also talking optimistical optimistically. he says you can reach out and find common ground. that's the message that he says his campaign will bring to washington. he's trying to reach the common ground by rallying supporters and he hopes crossover republican voters around what he call kitchen table issues, issues of the economy, jobs and healthcare, shep. >> shepard: jonathan serrie in montgomery, thank you. let's turn to "fox news sunday" chris wallace who is with us from washington ahead of his sunday program coming up. good to see you, chris. >> good to be with you, shep. >> shepard: this reporting that the president is all in but the white house doesn't want him to be seen in a photograph with roy moore. really hard to have it both

ways. i guess they're giving it the effort. >> yeah. anybody that believes that in 50 or whatever minutes the president speaks he doesn't mentioned the name roy moore, i would like to take that action. highly unlikely he will fail to mention roy moore in his speech tonight. understandably. look, i can understand that. on the one hand, you want to support him. on the other hand you don't want the picture with him. if he's elected and comes to washington, they'll have plenty pictures together. >> shepard: there's republicans that are concerned about this endorsement. >> oh, yeah. the president at one point wasn't endorsing him and saying if the allegations were true, he should step aside. the rnc, the republican national committee, pulled their support for roy moore. at a certain point, the president said look, i'd rather have roy moore in there with all of his problems than a liberal and democratic vote with doug

jones. he decided that was more important. slowly but surely has increased to an open full-throated endorsement and the rnc is once again pouring money into roy moore's campaign in alabama. >> shepard: if he wins in alabama, which the experts seem to think he will, if he wins, what do they do in the senate? >> nothing. >> shepard: so they seat him and don't try to remove him? >> that's very interesting. yes, there's still people that have expressed concerns about hit. not that he's in the senate. house speaker paul ryan said yesterday, i don't care what the polls say. any opinion hasn't changed. i still don't think he should run. he should step aside. having said that, with the president now all in, with the republican national commit the all in, this talk that you were hearing in the early days of the allegations from people like mitch mcconnell and other senators about, you know, if he comes in, we may refuse to seat him. we may vote to expel him. it will go to the ethics

committee. that has damped down. i think he will particularly with the president's support, he will be seated and he will be a senator. >> shepard: there's a stark line that's been drawn now. the democrats have come together, i think, 33 senators have come together and said, you know, al franken has to go. is that setting up a line of discussion, a narrative for come election time? >> absolutely. i don't think there's any question -- look, i think some of it is conviction. some of it also is political calculation by democrats. and they move very swiftly and fiercely this week to get rid of john conyers, to get rid of al franken and set up a narrative that if roy moore were to win, then the gop is a party of donald trump who has his own allegations of sexual misconduct and roy moore and they're the party of that kicks out people like conyers and franken. they see it a good social issue

for 2018. you can be sure that they'll be saying, you know, the republicans are party of social values? what happens in these cases. >> shepard: how much reality is there to this push to make more transparent to the public, information about the $17 million in payouts that have come from the congress? >> there's an effort, but you know, it hasn't become law yet. we're going to be talking on sunday to barbara comstock from virginia and debbie dingell. comstock is pushing hard for the house to change their rules. first of all, this incredibly arduous procedure that any woman who wants to make an accusation of sexual harassment has to go through. it's about 90 days before they can actually file a formal complaint and the question of all of those members of congress that settle cases against -- with women who have made allegations and did so on our

dime, the taxpayer's dime. there's a push for that, but so far that hasn't gotten to the floor and there's not been a vote on it. >> shepard: chris wallace, look for you this sunday in addition to congress woman comstock and dingle. chris will welcome nikki haley. that's this sunday on "fox news sunday." check your local listings on your local fox station. three members of congress have quit in three days. the latest, a congressman accused of asking his staffers to have his baby. now he's explaining that request next. plus, the day of rage against president trump's declaration that jerusalem is israel's capitol. it's now turned deadly. and we're there live. plus, the fires in ventura county. at one point today, there was a change in the wind and they were very hopeful that they might get ahead of this. these are live pictures from our network news service kabc, the

flagship abc station. you can see the roads being put in there. we'll take you on a tour this friday afternoon. sore back. but he's got work to do. so he took aleve this morning. if he'd taken tylenol, he'd be stopping for more pills right now. only aleve has the strength to stop tough pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. tylenol can't do that. aleve. all day strong. all day long. check this sunday's paper for extra savings on products from aleve. ok, so with the award-winning our customers have 24/7 access, digital id cards, they can even pay their bill- (beep) bill has joined the call. hey bill, we're just- phone: hi guys, bill here. do we have julia on the line too?

>> shepard: the minnesota governor, mark dayton, says he will announce a pick to fill al franken's seat in the next couple days. that's according to the minute alice star tribune newspaper. the report says he will likely tap the lieutenant governor tina

smith. that will keep the seat in democratic hands. state law dictates the governor must appoint a replacement to serve until the 2018 elections. at that point, there is to be a special election. voters are to pick someone to serve out the final two years of franken's term. then in 2020, the seat is up again. this time for a full six-year term. al franken announced that he's resigning after multiple women accused him of sexual harassment. franken says some claims are false and others he remembers differently. one of the most conservative members in all of congress announcing today that he will step down from his seat in the house after officials learned he asked two women that worked for him to be surrogates and carry his child. republican congressman trent franks of arizona says he will resign in january after ethics committee officials say they investigated him for conduct that constitutes sexual harassment. in a statement, franks explained that he and his wife struggled to get pregnant after they had

twins. he said "we continue to have a desire to have at least one additional sibling for our children or for which our children have made repeated requests. he said i deeply regression my discussion of this option and process in the workplace caused distress." a fox urgent, a day of rage across the middle east. protests turning deadly after president trump's decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capitol. soldiers using tear gas and rubber bullets against demonstrators. palestinian officials say one man is dead and 200 hurt. the israeli military confirms its soldiers opened fire on people near the border with gaza. some protesters locked arms to face off with israeli police in jerusalem's old city today. huge demonstrations not only in israel but across the middle east and really around the world. thousands of people took to the streets in egypt where the crowd chanted palestine we never forget you. all the arab world is supporting

you. and in baghdad, protesters burning an american flag holding the banner that read "jerusalem is ours." president trump has doubled down on his decision now. he tweeted "i fulfilled my campaign promise. others didn't." president trump's decision to side with israel breaks with decades of united states policy. david lee miller is live in jerusalem. david lee? >> shepard, as of now, the death toll has two people palestinians and 700 have been injured in clashes with israeli troops. the palestinians were demonstrating the president's declaration that jerusalem is the capitol of israel. now, this is the muslim sabbath. a day of prayer here. many people were off work. but what is note worthy is anecdotally, it appeared there

were fewer people on the streets today than they were during the last two days of demonstrations. the question then is why were two people killed and so many people injured. apparently the israeli security forces anticipating that there would be great numbers on the street, beefed up their forces and anecdotally today we did see what appeared to be an increase in the amendment of ammunition and the amount of tear gas that was used. but as of now, it does not look like the violence is escalating. we should know more the next few days to see in the pattern will continue. one thing note worthy, shepard, is that today there were multiple rockets that were launched from gaza into israel. they landed in unpopulated areas or intercepted. the israeli air force did respond with air strikes. shepard? >> thanks, david lee miller. seems what amounts to the facebook of russia was looking to give a little lift to the trump campaign before the

presidential election. the reports of e-mails from a social media executive and what we know about the trump campaign's response. that's coming up.

>> shepard: just in to fox news, trent franks on whom we were reporting released a new statement. hes is his resignation is effective today. quoting from this new statement, last night "my wife was admitted to the hospital in washington d.c. for an ongoing ailment. we came to the conclusion that the best thing for our family would be for me to tender my previous resignation today." a russian social media executive offered to help promote

president trump's presidential campaign leading up to the 2016 election. that's according to "the washington post." it's reporting in today's edition that he messaged the president's oldest son, donald trump jr. and president trump's social media manager several times including days before the election. the tech executive told the two that president trump should create a page on russian social network for its nearly 100 million users. writing it would be the top news in russia. an attorney for trump jr. tells the post that he forwarded the pitch to the president's social media manager but doesn't remember if there was any further discussion about it. this comes as donald trump jr. was on the hill this week testifying. robert mueller is looking into russia's meddling in the 2016

election. the white house and the russian president vladimir putin have repeatedly said there was no collusion. george papadopoulos' fiance says. trump's former campaign adviser was a patriot, not a coffee boy, and that everything he did had the campaign's stamp of approval. >> he was constantly in touch with the high level officials and he never took any initiative as far as i know unauthorized. >> was he in touch with steve bannon? >> yes, as far as i know, yes. >> he was in touch with general flynn? >> yes, as well. >> shepard: papadopoulos pleaded guilty to lying to the feds and is cooperating with the president's team. president trump is down playing papadopoulos' role saying he was a low-level volunteer. and let's go to michael crowley

for politico. nice to see you. >> nice to see you, shep. >> shepard: this communication, the words from the former girlfriend, what are we to make of this? >> well, there's two different stories. the russia story just keeps getting in some way weirder and more complex, i suppose you could say. with the case of the russian facebook, you know, it's hard to know what to make of it. i think there's two possibilities here. one that -- we know the russians had a sophisticated social media campaign underway and played out on twitter and facebook. was this somehow related to that? this big basically -- the facebook of russian, big social media company there, trying to get trump active on their platform in russian. instead somehow part of this larger story. kind of doesn't make sense. russian facebook is not influencing the united states

election. so the alternative possibility here is that this russian facebook basically, its company, is trying to glom to the trump phenomenon and get attention and create a web page people will be excited about. like so many things with this russia story, it's confusing and weird and could be part of a master conspiracy and could not be that big of a deal. trump was very popular in russia. he was talking about better relations between the united states and russia. it would be natural for a social media company to be interested in him for nonsinister reasons. so you have to be suspicious about it. >> shepard: do we have clarity yet on whether there was a real push with michael flynn and others right there at the end as has been described in the last few days, whether what was being said has been confirmed? >> right.

i think, shep, you might be referring to reports that flynn and others were circulating stories on social media. is that what you mean? >> shepard: yeah. >> yeah and i don't think it's clear. i think it's clear that people in trump campaign were for instance retweeting stories that were traced back to russian bots or trolls on twitter or facebook. what you can't know is whether this was stuff that was popping up in say kellyanne conway's twitter feed or her facebook page and it was pro trump and anti-clinton and she thought i liked that and circulated to other people or some sort of coordination with the russians. that's not at all been proved. there's some people suspicious that might have been going on. i have to tell you, i haven't seen evidence that makes me think that was likely part of what was happening. indeed, that remains speculation. >> shepard: michael crowley, great to see you. thanks. >> thank you. >> shepard: tragedy at a high

school in new mexico. we reported on this yesterday, a gunman killed two teenagers. what we've learned about how he got in the school and his plan to commit mass murder is incredible. plus, half a dozen wild fires obliterating parts of southern california. the forecast for when folks can get some relief next.

i love eggs, and there's a big difference between ordinary... and the best. which egg tastes more farm-fresh and delicious? only eggland's best. which egg has 6 times more vitamin d, 10 times more vitamin e, and 25% less saturated fat? only eggland's best. which egg is so special, i'd never serve my family anything else? for me, it's only eggland's best. better taste, better nutrition, better eggs.

>> i'm lea gabrielle. a local station reports rebel fighters are attacking in the congo nation. cops say a teen has turned himself in after he was caught on camera stealing a rifle, taser and a bulletproof vest from a police officer's car. this happened in pembroke pines near miami. investigators say the 16-year-old was breaking into

vehicles when he came across a cop car in a driveway and walked away with fully loaded rifle and ammo. friends and family convinced him to fess up. and in florida, south of tampa, a fishing line got wrapped around a turtled neck and a good samaritan freed it. the news continues with shep after this. , prevagen is the number one selling brain-health supplement in drug stores nationwide. prevagen. the name to remember. it's ok that everyone ignores it's fine. drive. because i get a safe driving bonus check every six months i'm accident free. and i don't share it with mom! right, mom? righttt. safe driving bonus checks. only from allstate. switching to allstate is worth it. i can do more to lower my a1c. and i can do it with what's already within me.

because my body can still make its own insulin. and once-weekly trulicity activates my body to release it. trulicity is not insulin. it comes in a once-weekly, truly easy-to-use pen. it works 24/7, and you don't have to see or handle a needle. trulicity is a once-weekly injectable medicine to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. it should not be the first medicine to treat diabetes or for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. do not take trulicity if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, if you have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you're allergic to trulicity. stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or symptoms like itching, rash, or trouble breathing. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. taking trulicity with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases your risk for low blood sugar.

common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased appetite, and indigestion. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. i choose once-weekly trulicity to activate my within. if you need help lowering your a1c and blood sugar, activate your within. ask your doctor about once-weekly trulicity. >> shepard: a follow up from yesterday. investigators in new mexico say a gunman that killed two teenagers disguised himself as a high school student to get in the building in the first place and planned to kill as many people as possible. this all happened yesterday at aztec high school in the northwestern part of the state about three hours north of albuquerque. investigators say the 21-year-old walked up and down the hallways firing at random and into classrooms. the police say the shooter killed himself. the feds say they briefly

investigated this man back in the year 2016 after he wrote about mass shootings on an online gaming message board. our chief correspondent jonathan hunt has been looking into his background. he's live with more. what do we know about the victims? >> well, shep, they were apparently both very promising students. francisco fernandez was a football player, a born competitor according to his family. casey marquez was a cheerleading captain. selected to cheer at the orange bowl. as you look at this terrifying video from inside the school as the shooting was happenings, we should tell you both victims according to police were shot at random, not targeted. they simply happened to cross paths with the shooter. new mexico's governor met with the families of both students. >> they seem to be absolutely broken. i cannot imagine anyone being

told when you send your child to a school this they die in that school because some evil human being took their lives. >> now the governor and other officials say the gunman intended to kill many more but the quick action of staff and the police arriving within the minute of the first call saved potentially a lot of lives, shep. >> shepard: what more have you learned about the shooter's plans? >> for instance, we know he absolutely intended to die. police revealing that they found a note in a trash can at his home. it read 1-6:20, work. 7-7:30 prep, 8:00, die. >> he's not on a coward, he's evil.

in my mind, there's so many things wrong with this. it's a shame that he wasn't on our radar. i don't think he had a traffic ticket or anything else. >> he was apparently on the fbi's radar. in march 2016, agents interviewed him regarding a comment he made on a gaming website apparently asking if you're going to commit a mass shooting, does anyone know anything about cheap assault rifles? shep, after talking to him and his family, they concluded then no crime had been committed. the shooter owned no guns and told agents that he was joking and had no plans to kill anyone. shep? >> shepard: jonathan hunt in los angeles. thanks. wild fire alert. speaking of los angeles, the fire department in ventura,

california warning that the wind could change directions. ventura is about an hour's drive up the coast from los angeles. that's where the most destructive of the fires are now raging. call fire rips are saying the thomas fire has burned more than 200 square miles. more land than the other state's fires combined. more images. here's the first one. a truck drives by the flames of the thomas fire. these are horses running for freedom. so many animals caught up in this. they're escaping the smoke from the lilac fire. flames burn on an hillside in ventura county. this is off of 126. and nasa put this out. look at this image. this is the smoke rising from across that area of southern california. fire crews searching for hot

spots in what is really a moon-looking landscape there. what used to be people's homes in san diego county. officials in california say the fires have already forced nearly 250,000 people to flee their homes. rick reichmuth is in the extreme weather center. how are the winds looking? >> better than they were. now seeing gusts down to 60 miles an hour versus 80 miles an hour yesterday. fire weather outlook critical, which is better than the extreme it has been the last couple days. it's still critical. you talked about a change of wind direction. i think we're going to see a lot of wind has been moving over the ocean, moving the smoke to the north, as far north as washington. we'll see a change in the winds and bring the heaviest smoke towards l.a. that change causing business problems for fighting the fires. humidity remains incredibly dry all weekend long. that won't change. the only real relief comes from the winds coming down a little bit. where today we got maybe 60 miles an hour gusts in the highest parts, yesterday we saw the dark blues in here.

now throughout the day on saturday, still winds maybe 30 to 40 miles an hour. not as bad as that 60 to 80 for tomorrow. a little break. we see that in the strong santa ana winds and coming back in by monday. take a look at this, shepard. the next seven days across the west. no precipitation, no rain, no snow anywhere to be had. >> shepard: my brother texted me from baton rouge this morning. it snowed. >> crazy. take a look at this. you can get the idea where the cold front is. we like to play this game. right there, south florida. you're still very warm. jacksonville, 32. 37 in mobile. we have the cold air in place and a line of storms coming through. had measurable snow in texas. take a look at this video in jackson, mississippi. snow sticking on the trees. mostly sticking on the grassy areas. not as much on the roads. we're seeing some sticking on the roads across places around

north georgia. we'll see snow in atlanta tomorrow. accumulating snow from the south and towards the mid-atlantic and eventually tomorrow to the northeast. we're talking about an additional 1-3 inches across the north georgia mountains, the southern appalachians. take a look at this. some spots just probably to the east of d.c., maybe eight inches and along the i-95 corridor. a lot of spots in the 2-4 inches of snow. the first measurable snow across the northeast. >> shepard: colder in mobile than new york. that's a thing. >> it is. good for us. >> shepard: that changes in the morning. i think we're going to get close to half a foot. that's what the weather app says. we'll see what happens. a number of new jobs is up. employers are hiring. but you might not feel that optimism in your wallet. we'll break down the latest jobs report coming up from the fox news deck. patrick woke up with back pain.

but he has work to do. so he took aleve. if he'd taken tylenol, he'd be stopping for more pills right now. only aleve has the strength to stop tough pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. aleve. all day strong.

could have something to do with the c.r., the continuing resolution. they like to see the budget continuing on. this is really good news. i want to dig down a little bit in the sectors doing well. there's high-paying sectors that are adding folks businesses, services. 46,000 people. manufacturing 31,000. healthcare 30,000. that's a high-paying sector as well. construction a surprise here at 23,000. overall, pretty darn good news. if you'll remember in october, we had surprises on the positive, too. that is because we didn't expect in the wake of the hurricanes to see good numbers. we did, this is starting to look good and solid here. labor force participation, unchanged. fewer discouraged workers. good news. but you have to talk about wages, right? >> shepard: yeah, you have to mention that. that's where this report is so fabulous. that's been the big problem in the labor market. how much are people being paid and paid enough. so the gain month to month,

about an nickel an hour for folks. it's a 2.4% increase year over year. i'm looking at -- >> shepard: a nickel an hour? our staff would call that an enormous raise. >> you're correct about that. the rest of the world thinks maybe not and wages should go up more. this is about the pace that we've seen since 2015. it's called lackluster by economists. when it's ramps up, it's inflation. >> shepard: we're due for a little inflation cyclicly. >> it's strange we don't have any. >> shepard: i'm remembering 19% interest rates when we were trying to build a house. it's like forget this. >> yeah. the fell reserve meets next week. they say hey, let's punch up the interest rates. >> shepard: wouldn't be surprised. great to see you. have a great weekend. >> you too. >> shepard: and president trump's rally tonight, right by

alabama. after tweeting his full support for roy moore, hillary vaughn is live. hello, hillary. >> hey, shepard. there's about 100 people waiting for doors to open in about an hour. we spotted a few alabama voters in the crowd. we talked to them and asked them about president trump's endorsement of roy moore. we'll have your their reaction, more after this.

>> shepard: new information and a new happening. the roy moore campaign is now planning a news conference to begin in just a few minutes, 6 1/2, 7 minutes from you now. they promised to address statements from one of his accusers, beverly young nelson. she said that moore groped and

assaulted her when she was 16 and used a year book inscription that moore wrote to back her her story. and we're told roy moore will not be in this afternoon's news conference but he tweeted earlier today writing in part, "now she herself admits to lying" which she didn't. thousands of people expected to attend president trump's rally in pensacola in just hours from now. the white house says that the official purpose of the event is to talk about taxes. president trump is also expected to campaign for the republican roy moore just days away from that special senate election down in alabama. president trump has fully endorsed roy moore despite multiple women accusing moore of sexual misconduct. moore has denied all the claims. hillary vaughn live in pensacola. hi, hillary. >> hi, shepard. judge roy moore's campaign says he won't be here tonight but they are excited that president

trump is campaigning so close to alabama and encouraging their supporters to show up here. we spotted a handful of alabama voters and roy moore supporters. there's hundreds from all around the south. we talked to people from mississippi, georgia who showed up here today. we talked to them about president trump's endorsement of roy moore. here's their thoughts. >> those are false charges against him for the most part. he may have flirted years ago with some young ladies. i don't believe most of the charges. i think they're politically motivated, timed to conveniently come out to sabotage his campaign. >> you know, if all this was true, why wasn't it brought up before when he was running for judge? >> it's a charge. doesn't mean your guilty. in this country, it's innocent until proven guilty. allegations are only allegations. this is a fraud. >> in other words, it was hard to find anyone in line that drove for hundreds of miles and

showed up hours before who wasn't on the same page as the president and didn't support his decision to go all in for moore. but again, the line is getting longer and those are the people we talked to. >> shepard: hillary vaughn in pensacola. we'll be back and tuck about when president roosevelt gave a speech that changed the course of world war ii. it happened on this day in history. you owned your car for four years. you named it brad. you loved brad. and then you totaled him. you two had been through everything together. two boyfriends, three jobs... you're like nothing can replace brad. then liberty mutual calls... and you break into your happy dance. if you sign up for better car replacement™, we'll pay for a car that's a model year newer with 15,000 fewer miles than your old one. liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance.
