ebbone bonebony: i'm so excited to be . i'm so equities sighted, guys. this is really great. thank you for sharing the couch with me this morning. pete: of course. great speech last night and great game today. griff: meeting in philadelphia. >> eboni: who do you guys got? allege little bias here? pete: army u every 15th year would win. we won last year. i think we will win this year. >> eboni: i believe the president of the united states. pete: 8:00 last night in pensacola they call it, griff, you told me florida, bama. right on the line of alabama. part of his campaign speech in pensacola.

listen to a portion of it upfront. >> we're going to speak straight to the american people they apologized. thank you cnn. thank you so much. you should have been apologizing for the last two years. we are going to have safety again. because america is more than just a place on a map. america is a nation. america is a family. we want the strongest borders you've ever seen. we're going to have such borders. we'll have borders on top of borders. oh, these resisters resist. hillary resisted and do you know what happened? she lost the election in a land slide. this is a rigged system.

this is a sick system from the inside. this guy is screaming we want roy moore. he is right. we need a republican in the senate, we need more of them. you know the yearbook? there was a little mistake made. she started writing things in the yearbook. gloria allred. any time you see her you know something's going wrong. so get out and vote for roy moore. and i can think of no better christmas present for the american people than giving you a massive tax cut. only one thing missing the words merry christmas. they are using those words again. do you notice? they are using those words again. pete: so eboni, this was classic trump last night. eboni: oh, sure. i call it the president trump direct connect. he opened with talking about how this is his very successful method of just bypassing a lot of mainstream media and going

straight to the people. and for whatever you think of the message itself, you cannot argue with the effectiveness, the ability to get in front of these massive audiences as he has done for the past two years and some change now and drawing that energy. it's magnetic. griff: pete mentioned floridabama. it's basically the same area. half of that audience is from alabama. it's only a 20-mile drive for many of them. eboni: popular for trump. griff: get out the vote. he is trying to rally them this is for the first time in alabama's history for a long time somewhat of a close race. pete: for reasons we know. as someone i think we all do public speaking at some level, you watch that almost as a performance. walking away from the podium and the clapping and cheering and the way he goes on prompter and off. he hit all the themes that has made him popular -- continue to be popular with his base. hitting the fake news,

talking about borders and sovereignty. the rigged system. tax cuts. merry christmas. there were merry christmas signs everywhere there. as much as he is pursuing tax cuts and policies. his presidency has been a cultural critique presidency. i call him a see something say something president. you see something happening in our culture and he comments on it. and if you go around to folks who supported him. look at the presidential popularity polls, his supporters are more enthusiastically supportive of him today than they were before regardless of what the so-called mainstream media says. griff: he lost -- friday night. he loves working on friday nights. been since september since he has done this. he is really driving that america first theme. it's on the heels, of course, of his big asian trip. he is getting a lot of push back for america first. this jerusalem thing. let's listen to him talking about america first last night. >> we believe the united states military is the

greatest force for justice nut history of the world. and we are going to take care of it. we believe that every american should stand for the national anthem. [cheers and applause] [chanting u.s.a.] we don't sing a global anthem. our troops don't wear a foreign uniform. we proudly sing the star spangled banner. our beret troops fight and die for the red, white, and blue. and we protect and preserve the american constitution that we cherish. griff: very receptive audience. for once he is not getting push back. what do you think about that? eboni: listen, that america first just going back to his signature campaign issue for those that are still confused as to how president trump was successful back in november of last year. look no further, right, than this type of example, again,

obviously, not every single american moving forward with that same state of mind. as you say, pete, his base stronger than ever. i don't really think the president feels a need to expand necessarily the quantity but the enthusiasm of his existing base i think has served him incredibly well his first year. pete: he relitigates common themes. left globalists, elitists, open borders. illegal over legal. that's the sense some. the narrative. he says i'm for our veterans. i'm for our police officers. i'm for standing for the national anthem by the way, there will be no kneelers at the army/navy game. griff: they will be watching each other. steve. pete: he watches the. the question will be when it comes to 2020. ultimately and i think he talked a lot about jobs last night. jobs and trade that will matter. eboni: it absolutely is the best thing going right now in my estimation. and really no matter what

side of the aisle you're on, it's hard to argue with where the market is. it's hard to argue where -- when the economy is doing as well as it is now it makes it difficult to have a counter argument that's effective. so far on the other side of the aisle they have not been able to tap into anything consistent. pete: we have a professor talking about the 228,000 games that came in november. the manufacturing jobs that have come back which is what he talked about doing. we wants to make things in america again. he can do that and continue to do that. that will be a successful meeting. griff: one thing from last night we need to get to quickly. that is the immigration. what happened out in san francisco, kate steinle and the president certainly addressed it here is what he had to say. >> you saw what happened with beautiful kate steinle. it was a total miscarriage of justice.

she was killed by this guy, an illegal alien who had been deported five times and convicted seven times of felonies. and people come in and they are not necessarily good like the man that ran over, the animal that ran over many people in new york city the other day. chain migration that cost taxpayers billions and billions of dollars. and sanctuary cities that set free violent criminal aliens all over our country. and protect them. we have to end chain migration. griff: clearly he is using this also as a push for his funding for the wall. eboni k. williams, you are a lawyer, is this something that's going to be played out and litigated in the court of public opinion for months to come? eboni: of course it is. we have absolutely seen a consistent outrageous reaction, again, beyond politics. this is a human issue. okay?

you are talking about a young lady who lost her life due to someone who was kicked out of our country five different times. there's just no questions around it. so, therefore, the federal government now having to come in with federal charges to seek justice because the state failed, the state of california. it's a bad narrative for california as it relates to immigration. not legal immigration, but plainly illegal immigration. pete: is it also a bad narrative for democrats? almost feels like republicans are from mars and democrats from screenous. republicans talking about ending change migration. borders on top of borders and defunding sanctuary cities. democrats say our red line is daca bill. >> eboni: the problem is the dems have not been able to coalesce a compelling narrative on the side of legal immigration. that's actually what they should be doing. if they wants to get americans, talk about first responders, talk about law enforcement that come from immigrant communities. you've got to talk about the positives of legal

immigration because on the other side, the president is effective in talking about the dangers of illegal immigration. pete: do you know who is not talking about it this morning? the failing "new york times." i opened up my failing "new york times." i looked on the front page got to be coverage on the speech it was in florida close toll alabama and roy moore. i had to look on page 18. griff: it was a late rally. pete: never put anything late on the front page. griff: we will be talking a lot about this speech. i think the biggest take away of that speech last night was the fact that he said the system was rigged from the beginning. he campaigned on it. and we're literally right now talking about three failures of the mainstream media on the reporting as it relates. pete: seeing the manifestation of that. we will keep talking about it for sure. the numbers are. in and the economy is booming under president trump. >> we have created 2.2 million new jobs. factories are coming back to our country. we have a long way to go. we will do much better than

this. griff: president obama is taking the credit. who really deserves it? eboni: tomi lahren and dan bongino live this hour coming up. ♪ talking about freedom ♪ i'm talking about freedom ♪ i will fight ♪ for the right ♪ living in freedom ♪ ♪ ♪

it feels good to be back. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

pete: new job numbers are in and the economy is booming. we created in november alone, you saw this today. we added 228,000 jobs in november. we have a along way to go. we are going to do much better than this and i have been saying it.

including another 33,000 new jobs in manufacturing. eboni: here to weigh in professor at the kings college in manhattan. chairman of business and finance there. brian, the good news is that the economy is doing so amazing. >> you can't argue with it. eboni: we all celebrate that. the issue for many who really gets credit? is this the good deeds of president obama the past 8 years or, indeed, is this the result of president trump and his policies that he has implemented thus far. >> a good general gives creditor men and women on the ground. a good president also gives credit to the men and women on the ground. have you the small business owners, the workers out there creating value, every president should be eager to give them credit first. when you look at this economy, president trump has raised consumer confidence and business confidence to levels that we haven't seen in some cases 17 years. and that's because of the tone he is setting. he has just set a different tone from the white house

and businesses, workers have responded to that and we're seeing that show up in the job numbers. we're showing that show up in economic activity. eboni: let me ask you about the job numbers real quick, brian. because certainly unemployment compact in manufacturing jobs. we have seen almost 190,000 new manufacturing jobs created in this country. so we do talk about are these part-time jobs. kind of job he was talking about coming back. again, i think it's because business in manufacturing anticipating things to come. lower taxes. less regulation make it easier continue to vest.

pete: yesterday the president talked about. what would veto do to make sure that that growth stays where it is or goes up? we have seen an important rebound to. keep it there is another thing. >> that's really important. one of the things he said in this speech is we have a long way to go. he acknowledged that we are in the first quarter of this game. a lot we need to do to make the economy strong again. he has to be committed to doing that tax reform is a big one. continually make this a friendly environment for businesses. you need entrepreneurs so they have to get tax reform done. the start he has made has been unlike any other president. he is pulling back regulation. he is stopping new regulation. that has to continue because you have to create the space for these new businesses to hire. we need to hire more people because wages still aren't going up as much as we would like. that's the one thing that's lagging. i think the american people can feel more job creation and economic growth is what gets those wages up. pete: they talked about

trade last night. how important are better trade deals to bring back our industries here. >> we want to trade and the president has said. this trade is good for our country. we want to trade on fair terms. it's true we have countries around the world right now and china is the biggest who don't have fair trade terms especially when it comes to things like intellectual property. that has to change. the president has been clear trade wealth creator and we'll continue to do that. pete: professor at wayne college. >> good to be here. pete: coming up, skier lindsey vonn promises to represent americans at winter olympics but just not the commander-in-chief. >> i hope to represent the people of the united states, not the president. pete: she also said she wouldn't go to the white house. tomi lahren is here to respond next. eboni: more trouble for robert mueller's russia investigation. one of top dogs plan to party with the clintons. more coming up. ♪ should i stay or should i go ♪ should i stay or should i go now ♪ should i stay or should i

i have to win to be invited. actually i think every u.s. team member is invite sod no, i won't go. >> for you it's definitely not? >> no. >> it's definitely not for lindsey vonn. joining us with her reaction fox news contributor tomi lahren. tomi. i want to watch my feel and country go win gold. preemptively i'm not in for president trump. i'm just in for others and i'm not going to the white house. what do you say to that? >> well, here's my question. what about the americans who are trump supporters that voted for president donald trump? are we not american? does she not want to represent us? i think that these athletes, boy, they just can't help themselves, can they? they have to get political and say things that not only disrespect the president of the united states but disrespect so many americans that are supporting the president, that are supporting their country. like patriotism is so foreign to them they can't understand it.

griff: tomi, everyone is piling on. let me just ask you the way that the interviewer, the reporter ask that question did she lead vonn to that response? >> well, i think there is some truth to that can you tell by lindsey vonn's response that she is pretty sure of her answer already. and she is not going to go to the white house. and she even said yeah, i know, maybe i shouldn't stick my nose in politics but i still have a voice. i want to be heard. this goes on lindsey's shoulders there. she chose to make that statement and americans that are trump supporters, we will feel a certain kind of way about that. she had to go and be political and disrespect our president like some of our athletes have done before her. eboni: tomi, let me ask you this, what many call america's quarterback tom brady looking again to almost mvp season goodness that guy can't be stopped. we know tom brady declined to go to the white house when invited by president obama when the patriots won the super bowl weighs that

also a display of not being patriotic? >> for me i wouldn't have made that decision. i do think it's disappointing. it would be hypocritical for me to sit here and say some are allowed to disrespect president obama. i can tell you even though i was not an obama supporter, if i was invited to the white house, i would have gone. that is a symbol of american pride. that's patriotism. that's your country. so whether it's president obama, whether it's president trump or god forbid if it would have been president clinton, i think we still respect the office of the president and respect the americans who are around us who may not agree with us politically but they are americans nonetheless. they represent our country. pete: i think that's a great point. on to millennial conversations here. it turns out, you know, there has been a lot of conversation about their disposition. some people like to call them snowflakes. a new survey by the british health insurance firm found 72% of 16 to 24-year-olds in the u.k. believe snowflake actually affects them mentally. their mental health.

not only do they need safe places if you tell them they are a snowflake they need to be even safer? >> i think i probably had a lot to do with that. that's one of the terms i used a lot the last election season and continue to use it i'm a millennial and can i say to millennials that are offended by being called a snowflake or god forbid their mental health is in the balance because they are being called a snowflake. they need to understand. this listen to me loud and clear. we need to get over the notion that the worst thing that can happen to us that our feelings are hurt or we are offended. the best way to not be offended by everything is to simply not be offended. get over it there are people in all corners of this globe that are dealing with real issues. if the worst thing that's happenings to you that someone is calling you a snowflake and that's triggers you? my goodness, what a problem to have. griff: toughen that self-esteem up. bone boinel are we going to beat isis. tomtomi lahren thank you very much.

former nypd officer and host of the dan bongino show. i'm going to guess you might have something to say about this. >> you guessed right, griff. yeah, this is incredible. i'm glad he brought this up, trump, and he continues to highlight. this with regards to this mueller investigation, guys, eboni, if you were trying to discredit this operation, i mean, seriously, if you had a checklist going on, how do we make the mueller special counsel investigation completely irrelevant? hey, i have got an idea, let's hire abcd and e. like they did every single one of these steps. trump ran on draining the swamp. not fertilizing the swamp. that's what they did. they brought a bunch of anti-trump swamp rats in there to investigate swamp. pete: the "wall street journal" reported that mueller investigator andrew weissmann whose name we have heard many times before actually attended hillary clinton's election night party last november. so, i mean, the clinton

celebration team is now part of the trump special impeachment counsel team. >> right. so let me get this straight, weissmann, you are pit bull. your go to guy in the special counsel to attack trump. was actually elections night celebration that turned into a disaster? was he one of those guys in those videos they put out on election night of all those people at the clinton headquarters crying? is he in the background wiping tears away from his eyes when hillary lost? pete, even worse, he sends an email to sally yates the number two after she defies trump, unconstitutionally defies a lawful trump order celebrating it oh i'm in such admiration, sally. you are so wonderful. i mean, seriously, bob mueller, i mean with all due respect to his career, this was a really, really bad call. he needs to clean house. eboni: dan, griff, pete, help me out. some things are complicated and some things are very simple. i'm thinking if you work in the federal government,

right or state government, for that matter, and you know a part of your job is going to have to operate in these kind of capacities. don't you think it wise to extract yourself from the politics of all of that or how about not give those type of campaign donations or i don't know show up at electoral celebration party that turned into like you said an epic disaster, dan. i would think preserving one's credibility in those roles would be paramount. but maybe that's just me. what do you think, dan? >> no. you know, eboni, that's a great question. i mean that. a very sensitive one to me. i was a secret service agent for barack obama. a job i was very proud of. as you said before, listening before the break, or tomi said barack obama was my president. i disagreed with just about every single thing did he, i was very proud when i left the presidential protection division to walk in the oval office and get photos with my family with him. he is the president of the united states. eboni: right. >> when it was my time to get political, i left, i resigned. i gave up my pension and my job. i'm not looking for a pat on

the back from the audience. eboni: you protected your credibility. >> yes. you want to be a politician, be a politician. you can't be on the inside. griff: dan, what about the president got right to cnn and attacked them. we saw cnn walk back that wikileaks story. what do you make of that? i have got to get to you weigh in on that as a radio show host. >> listen, here's a warning to all of our rather large audience here on the weekend. you know they say wait an hour before you swim when you eat at the beach. wait at least one hour before retweeting any breaking news bombshell cnn about the trump family. i'm just trying to help you out. pro-tip for the day. guys, this is ridiculous right now to them. to the media, if you are listening right now and i know you are. you have one job. just one job. your job is just to get the facts right. could you at least get the date right on this donald trump jr. bombshell? i mean, is cnn the only media outlet in america that thinks you need encryption key to get on the internet? they got the date wrong.

guys, the date was the whole story about the wikileaks thing. the stuff was already pluck. their credibility. it's insult to used car salesman to say their credibility is worse than used car sales men. pete: the president creativitied the contest for the very fake news trophy. cnn wants to be in the winning. eboni: too much, pete. griff griff we have to leave it there before we get into more trouble. dan, thank you. eboni: we are turning now to our morning headlines. we have chilling new details on a deadly school shooting in mexico. hero substitute teacher barricading 17 students inside a classroom as the carnage unfold would just feet away. >> in serious danger and a few of them said i don't want to die and i go you know what? you're going to be okay. eboni: disguising himself as a student william atchison opened fire at aztec high school killing two students and himself. police releasing this note left behind outlining his

again. the roads tomorrow morning are going to be very, very cold. get ready for that. snow today all across the east coast. guys we are talking about 3 to 6 inches here in new york. that's going to be the story a&e long a lot of the i-95 corridor. go out across long island. probably see some spots 8 to 10. pete: how about the game? rick: probably 1 to 3-inch in the philly area. it will be a fun game to watch because the snow will be falling right at that time. pete: it will be fun to watch. army is wearing the 10th army uniforms army that fought in the snow. griff: i bet they lose. eboni: we will ask the former campaign manager joining us at the top of the hour. pete: forget hanging wreaths or storings thi stocks for chri. this had to be fake news. eboni: fake news. you made that up.

me then who? we have been able to take that movement and stretch it across the country. what better way to teach next generation of life of character than to share the stories of the men and women who volunteer to put on our nation's uniform and to step forward and serve? griff: when you travel as do you all across the world and country and you see a young service member maybe weary, what do you say to him? >> i walk up and look at him and say you know, there is an awful lot of us that really appreciate what you are doing. those men and women represent patriotism to be sure. character to be sure. but also qualities of discipline. and determination. which are characteristics we all admire. every single person serving in the military is there because they want to be there. they have raised their hand and said send me. god bless them. >> i'm inspired every single day by our future leaders. seeing what the young men

and women in our country are doing day, in day out is what motivates me and so that's why i love being a volunteer with travis manion foundation because they realize that our youth are really our future leaders. griff: in 2003 during the invasion of iraq i had the honor of meeting first joe dunford and chairman and joints chiefs the highest ranking officer. general, nice to see you again. >> good to see you too, griff. griff: general, tonight, at this gayla, you are inspiring the legacy of the selfless service in young folks. what are you saying to them? >> one of the things that this group is all about is they say that character matters. and i think the real message is to be a part of something bigger than yourself and to live in the footsteps of individuals like travis manion and the other individuals being honored tonight. one of the commitments we make is to never forget. events like the this are about keeping alive the legacy of these men and women that have made the ultimate sacrifice. what i say to them is we

made a commitment not to forget and i hope my presence here tonight make sure we know we're going to make that commitment. griff: did you ever think in those days when i was a cameraman chasing you around in the dirt that i would end up in a gala like that interviewing you or delivering your news? >> griff, that's probably the easiest question you have asked me and the simple answer is no. griff: general, thank you very much. and we appreciate your service. >> great to see you griff, thanks. griff: general dunford there general dunford mentioned brendan navy seal he was travis manion's best friend. they're buried side by side in arlington. secretary rumsfeld was the congressman many years ago who put forth the all voluntary military it was because of rumsfeld that we have that today. pete: i'm also shocked every day that you bring the news to america.

representatives are doing a disservice to their constituents because i find this to be a divisive tactic. and you are talking about people who are whipping up emotions. i say it's all political because the democrats have a problem with black voter support. low turnout for hillary clinton when she was running. they had huge turnout among black voters for former president obama during both his terms. now they have a really big problem because they don't have a platform. what are they running on? they run on the race card. they run on identity politics. that's all they got. eboni: you say whipping up emotion. in fairness it's legitimately an emotional issue for many. you talk about congressman lewis there who, we know the pictures and saw the scene of him being bloodied and beaten during the civil rights movement. hasn't he at least earned the right regardless of any of our opinions to implement this day he's sees fit? >> i don't see what that has for him boycotting because president trump is going to

be there. i don't see that parallel. eboni: if he takes the position though deneen he is particularly outraged by president trump as he relates to civil rights issues or white supremacy or things of this nature that he doesn't want to be president? >> i don't see that as an issue in terms of him boycotting president trump being there. pete: to that point when it is constructive not going to the white house. whether chuck and nancy decide not to go to the white house or john lewis decides not to go. how does that further the conversation? how do you heal divisions if you decide to not show up. >> you can't. this is another way to drive that wedge. this is what the liberals don't want to talk about. how successful the trump presidency has been to date. you had the gentleman on about -- talked about economics. job growth. manufacturing has gone up. jobs, unemployment is very low now. especially 10-year low among black americans. the market has gone through the roof. and they don't want to talk about how well the president

trump is doing in terms of his first year in office. griff: we should mention, you said the representative. not just john lewis, it's benny thompson and mississippi representative. i group you in memphis. went to ole miss. my question finally for you, deneen is does this matter? this is going to cause divisions. this is not going to be good for the country and certainly not for the folks in mississippi if it breaks apart. does this matter or will we move past this? >> this should be a unifying moment. listen, i say that these gentlemen are doing a disservice to constituents. it should be a unifying moment. there is too much division that has gone on in this country, especially during the last administration with president obama. so, i say they should be unifying the country and not playing on people's emotions trying to -- eboni: i think that's fair and is emotional for a lot of people in this country. great civil rights icon his widow miley will be there along with president trump.

by the way, if you are just waking up, the president had a little rally in florida last night. pete: little one. little means huge. griff: huge. if you missed it, here is a little bit of what happened. >> let me begin by wishing each and every one of you a very merry christmas, right? i can think of no better christmas present for the american people than giving you a massive tax cut. it's time for congress to adopt a pro-american immigration agenda. every member of congress should be asked where they stand on these issues. we want people that are going to protect your gun rights great trade deals instead of the horrible deals. we want jobs, jobs, jobs. so get out and vote for roy moore. do it. oh, these resisters resist.

hillary resisted and do you know what happened? she lost the elections in a land lied. germany is paying 1%. we ever paying 4%. i said angela. i said angela, send a little of that cash flow our way. i have said it so often that my job is not to be president of the world. my job is to be president of the united states of america. yet, there are powerful forces in washington trying to sabotage our movement. our revolution didn't end on november 8th. that was just the beginning. the greatest adventure still lies ahead. never give in, never give up. never back down. and never ever stop dreaming. griff: a lot of common themes there. that may be the first time he has spoken to angela merkel.

eboni: got to love that accent. griff: what was your take away? eboni: i think the president was very successful, guys, in really reiterating this us versus them theme. us being americans and them being anything that's not american. america first resonating loudly in that speech. making sure that we get the best part of the trade deals. making sure our economy is strong. talking about american military needs. and, again, it's hard to argue against it it's something that's nicly so successful thus far. it's hard to argue with the job numbers. and certainly the economic growth numbers. pete: great point. even at the end of the event we had snow falling. eboni: it was on cue. pete: blanket of political correctness. he stood on that podium saying a year in to my presidency jobs are coming back, manufacturing is coming back.

cutting better trade deals. telling angela you pay for nato. we are not paying for all of your security. you can't piggy back on us anymore. talked about the rigged system. powerful forces in washington trying to sabotage our movement. the swamp has been very deep. and he continues to hit that theme. griff: let's give context this is a common theme. we have had several instances, the most recent, cnn absolutely botching the wikileaks don jr. story on just getting a date wrong. wikileaks released on september the information -- 13th. 14th is when he got it basically the day after it was released. cnn said it was a full 10 days earlier a big mistake and abc, president trump mentioned it, brian ross reporting that flynn was going to testify directly against the president. pete: every time a smoking gun it's over. griff: another story subpoenaing deutsche bank for president trump's records. not true.

you have members of robert mueller's special counsel team having credibility issues. mainstream media making major mistakes with the biggest story of the year the russia probe. pete: you are right. we will toss to this clip about the rigged system. they are all november 27th the president tweeted they should have a contest who receives the fake news trophy. they are all working really hard to get president trump's fake news trophy. griff: we asked dan bongino about that. here is a little bit of what he had to say. >> if you were trying to discredit this operation, i mean, seriously, if you had a checklist going on, how do we make the mueller special counsel investigation completely irrelevant? hey, i have got an idea. let's hire a, b, c, d, and e. it's like they did every single one of these steps. trump ran on draining the swamp. not fertilizing the swamp. and that's what they did. they brought a bunch of anti-trump swamp rats in there to investigate trump and now they wonder why no one takes it seriously.

griff: dan is fired up on saturday morning. pete: we will bring more parts about what the president said about the rigged and sick system. he doubled down on that what he has been facing in washington, d.c. eboni: us verses them. a republicans becoming part of the them coalition as well. jeff flake in arizona putting out that tweet saying the system is not sick, mr. president. pete: donating to roy moore's opponent. eboni: 100 bucks. adding fuel for this fire takeout for president trump. his base is going to line up firmly behind it. griff: you bring up jeff flake. you are a lawyer. let's go in eboni k. williams court with judge eboni k. williams. cnn got a story wrong lately. the fact is abc really got a story wrong. the fact is mistakes keep being made on the biggest story of the year, the russia probe. so, when jeff flake says it's not a rigged system and knocks the president for his claim, the facts don't show that. eboni: here's the issue.

everybody makes mistakes. none of us are perfect. people are human. the problem though when you are a mainstream news organization in this. pete: so-called. eboni: in this climate. those mistakes matter. they matter big because they undermine overwhelming suspicion that's already permeating, right? pete: yes. eboni: around people where they fall. are they being open? are they being objective when it comes to president trump? pete: just like when it matters we find out andrew weissmann part of the special counsel attended hillary clinton's well it was going to be a victory party. eboni: would be celebration party. pete: on election night. how could you not feel like whether it's the fake media or what i call now along with a few others the special impeachment counsel, that's what they are trying to do. they are going after him and impugning his presidency. the president as he always does goes back to core and first principles. talking about america first and the military. take a listen. >> we believe the united states military is the greatest force for justice

[applause] [chanting u.s.a.] we don't sing a global anthem. our troops don't wear a foreign uniform. we proudly sing the star-spangled banner. our brave troops fight and die for the red, white, and blue. and we protect and preserve the american constitution that we cherish. griff: we don't sing a global national anthem. it was a rally in the nfl thing. pete: it would be something except it is something. high schools and colleges kids are being taught they are global citizens before they are american citizens. parents and grandparents are hearing that and they are afraid we are losing our country. and losing our love and

approach united states for the most exceptional nation on earth. we don't have global uniforms. we don't sing a global anthem. we don't have open borders. we support our military. the elites don't run our country. that resonates. eboni: it's got to be either or. what about being proud americans, owning that taking that proud patriotism and contributing and benefiting from our global interests. griff: that is going to be what people talk about all day long as they hear about it. and in addition to that we have some headlines. eboni: turning now to your headlines and a fox news alert. ♪ president trump declaring a state of emergency ordering federal aid to california as out-of-control wildfires ravage the state. this as the first fire-related death is confirmed. a 70-year-old woman found dead at the site of a car crash along an evacuation route in ventura county. medical examiners say she died from injuries sustained in the crash. smoke inhalation and burns.

members of special counsel robert mueller's team. according to the "wall street journal" mueller investigator andrew weissmann was at hillary clinton's election night party. eboni: meanwhile at least two mueller investigators passed legal work for clinton tied figures is now getting a second look. griff: what does this mean for the investigation going forward? here with more is former doj official j. christian adams.

christian, good morning. what do you say here? >> this is just the tip of the iceberg. there's more. this is eric holder's big payoff. holder institutionalized and normalized political law enforcement at the justice department. it's so bad these people don't even think they are doing anything wrong. this is just normal. one of the people on mueller's team. aaron zalinski is a "the washington post" blogger. go read his stuff. this guy is hard core, left wing. he is a guy prosecuting michael flynn on that case. but it's way worse than that this is a situation where you have these ideological leftists, these democrats, these swamp creatures running the entire show from rod rosenstein's office, down to mueller's team. they think they're doing everything okay. it's okay to think like they do. and still prosecute the president's people. griff: christian, let's talk specifically about the news about andrew weissmann, one of the investigators going

to or planning to go to a hillary clinton victory party? do you have a problem with that? >> it's not even surprising. look, when i was at the justifiable department. you had ethical guidelines for lawyers. and lawyers could not insert themselves into jobs where their politics were in question, where there might be bias. and, unfortunately, everybody seems to be biased on this investigation. and rod rosenstein, who is the deputy attorney general can't seem to get it under control. he needs to pick up the phone, tell robert mueller that people like aaron zalinsky and all of the people you featured need to go or rosenstein needs to go, period. eboni: christian, isn't it true that no matter who is actually in office, this becomes a problem? no matter who is actually in control, right? no matter which side of the aisle is leading. >> no. eboni: wouldn't it be better? no, that's not true. >> no, absolutely not. eboni: tell me why. >> because the department from stem to stern during the holder era was

radicalized, normalized, partisanship. eboni: okay, but let's talk about before obama. christian, christian, let's go before obama's administration. you talked about the capitol hill regulations that were in place at the doj during your tenure there. don't you think it would be a great idea if we got rid of this issue regardless of party, and, therefore, if you are in the doj and you are affecting as an attorney or something like that, you don't have a political stance. you don't make contributions to campaigns. and you don't show up to candidates' celebration parties. >> yeah, bingo. you have nailed something there you shouldn't make contributions. look, i made them when i was there. but i also found it to be odd that it would be okay. there is very few areas of doj where you can't make contributions. here is an each lower standard. how about don't blog at the huffington post and prosecute mike flynn? how about that as a basic standard. don't be a soros fellow and get hired by rod rosenstein to run the deputy attorney general's office. eboni: my point it doesn't matter if you are blogging for the huffington post or

the washington examiner. you shouldn't be taking editorial positions and acting in an objective role? do you agree with that? >> yeah. you shouldn't be contributing to hillary and then looking into allegations regarding her opponent's campaign. that's another really low standard that robert mueller and rod rosenstein should have implemented. brief griff i have got to jump in here as the nonlawyer in this group. we didn't didn't really get to it but the judge that took mike flynn's guilty plea recusing himself that's going to be a big story as well. j. christian adams, thank you very much for joining us. >> thanks, guys, take care. eboni: thanks, christian. griff: skier lindsey vonn says she will be representing the american people at the politic olympics t not president trump. michael eruzione here to react next ♪ usaa to me means

to the white house as a part of that. did you go and what do you think of lindsey vonn's objection people are ively she ♪ going. >> we went to the white house you remember a very difficult time. president carter announced they were boycotting summer games. a lot of people weren't happy with president carter and his decision to not send our athletes to the summer games after these athletes had trained for years. it was a very difficult time going to the white house because of that particular reason. you know, the first question i got when i got to the white house was what do you think of the boycott? and i have always -- i'm kind of an old school guy. i respect the presidency. i respect the white house. i respect who is in that white house. and we went as a team and as a group of athletes and it was unbelievable. it was an honor. but i also respect lindsey. if that's her decision, she feels that way, that's what makes this country so great. i disagree. again, you do represent the united states and you represent our president and the white house and the

people that stay in the white house. if it's your choice not to go, theach. but, boy, i will tell you i treasured my visit. pete: mike, a lot of people resonate with your old school approach. president of the united states. go. may not agree. you had a personal grievance as olympians the training is so long you are not going to be able to go. you say you respect this move. and you respect the right not to go, of course, everyone does. just like they have the right to kneel if they want to. what's to respect about this idea that i'm not going to go see the president. i'm above that or he is below me? what's respectful about that? >> well, i think that's the things that frustrates you a little. he is somebody that we should respect. whether you agree or disagree with his politics. he was elected by the people of this country. i think we should go and support his wishes as far as if he wants to invite the olympic athletes to come to the white house and be a part of the ceremony or celebration. so, again, like i told you, i'm an old school guy. if the president wants me to come to his house, i'm coming. pete: it's an extrapolation.

after what happened with collin kaepernick. it's not too far of an extrapolation. some of these olympic athletes says he's knot my president i'm not going to the white house. do you see where someone wins gold and takes a knee on the podium. >> i would haight to see that again, i think you have the right to express your concerns about what's happening in this country, but i think there's a time and a place for that and i don't believe standing on the olympic podium after have you received the gold medal to see your flag being risen just a little higher than all the other countries, i would not like to see that. pete: what's that like? not only to be at the olympics and serve your country. you beat the soviets which is pretty darn awesome. >> right. pete: what does it feel like to represent your country? >> it's a great honor. you put the u.s.a. jersey on. you are not representing boston or chicago. i'm a patriots or red sox fan. pete: we will forgive you. >> it's not boston or

chicago. it's the united states. it's a great honor to be there to represent your country. as i said earlier, when you are in that building, especiallily us in lake placid and everybody is singing the star-spangled banner, it was an incredible and awesome and proud moment. pete: america was singing it with you that incredible year. mike eruzione, thank you for your time. >> thank you, pete. have a good day. pete: still ahead. this is no joke. comedian sarah silverman says she is afraid of the american flag. >> he was hoisting an american flag up the flag pole in his front yard and i instantly felt very weird. >> really? really? plus, speaking of resistance, president trump fighting them and the rigged system inside the swamp at his florida rally. corey lewandowski has said all along and he is next on "fox & friends." it might be empty now, but lincoln financial field will soon be filled with patriotic fans for the 118th

people out to get him. who is he referring to the most? is this bob mueller? is this the fbi? is this the doj? fake news media? the totality of what he has faced. put that in to context for us. >> it's all of it. it's the deep state. it's the holdovers in the government still there from the obama administration. it's the fbi agents and let me say. this 99.99% of these guys and women are the best in the business. but we find out now that we have got one agent. maybe two. right, who are in charge of the clinton investigation. changing what the wording should be. not putting huma abedin under oath. not putting cheryl mills under oath. different sets of rules for different sets of people. mike flynn lies to the fbi is a felon. hillary, share and huma lie it's okay. don't worry about it. that is a problem and those are the people trying to take down this president. eboni: corey, the resistance we know is hillary clinton and her followers i suppose. i feel like this is essentially what her campaign was. right? it was a campaign. a presidential elections touted on resistance,

obviously an epic failure from a campaign. if you are someone who doesn't agree with the president's policies, what would be your suggestion as to what they could do that's going to be effective because obviously resistance isn't working. >> look, i think they should keep electing people like chuck schumer and nancy pelosi because they have done such a bangup job. make sure al franken stays in the senate to continue to grope women. this is what they should do. democratic party so full of ideas. party bifurcated on the far west coast and east coast of the country. they have lost all of middle america because they have no ideas. all they want to do is stop the american economy from growing. griff: corey, you mentioned the fake news media. let me say. this now we have multiple instances. cnn on the wikileaks. abc on the mike flynn story and some other things involving the deutsche bank subpoenaing the trump family. why does this matter now? why was last night more significant and do you believe that it's going to continue to be a theme the president is going to hit?

>> well, this is very important. because when you look at the election results, and you look at post election, 97% of the respond dents to a media research survey says they didn't allow the media to bias their voting habit. the media has lost all of their credibility by and large were weather it's cnn or reporter at abc or story at deutsche bank. these outlets want to make the news and not report the news. they are so quick to make bad news that they have to go and apologize. taken them so long and the only thing they understand is the backlash by the american people who said it's time to get it right or have accountability. pete: corey, trying to get pulse of the people here. president put out a tweet should have a contest for fake news trophy. who is in the lead for the fake news trophy? >> it's a tough one. look at abc news. look, they should have fired this guy, obviously. he single-handedly had the stock market drop 350 points because of a false news

story. so right now i think if we go week to week, they maybe the biggest loser of the week. maybe a new tv show. biggest fake news losers of the week. eboni: don't you think it helps the president and his argument about the fake news narrative that's out to get him? >> well, it does help the president. but doesn't help america is the problem. right? it helps the president because it shows how right he is. and how wrong the media is. but they have an obligation to get this story straight. that's their obligation as journalists and as reporters and to the american people. because it's not fair to the american people to have to hear directly from our president that the news is wrong again. the news should have accountability and suspending a guy for four weeks over christmas isn't really much of a consolation prize. pete: corey we have another story about james comey. why is james comey cryptically tweeting at this president right now? >> james comey is a liar. he has lied under oath. we know that the morale under the fbi is something that he wants to rewrite

revisionist history, right? he says integrity and honor and the fbi agents have it but i think we have to question james comey's honor and integrity because under congressional testimony he has told us point blank that he leaked information to the media to make sure it got out. that is illegal as an fbi agent and i want to know why the justice department isn't investigating james comey right now. >> eboni: thank you, corey, we will leave it there it's a very valid question. coming up president trump touting the economy and its impact on your investment. >> by the way, how are your 401(k)s doing? not too bad, right? eboni: not too shabby. stuart varney says it's only going to get better and better. is he joining us on this couch coming up. griff: army is looking for revenge over navy today will they get it yes they will. jillian is live on the field. jillian: big day is here. some call this the biggest and best rivalry in all of

>> he was hoisting an american flag up the flag pole in his front yard and i instantly felt very weird it didn't make sense but i felt it feeling of like -- i felt scared, yeah. i felt scared. pete: silverman using those comments in the opening monologue of her most recent episode on hulu the theme is nationalism. now the american flag induces fears. griff: it's called america's game and for good reason in a few hours the u.s. military academy will take on the navy. eboni: jillian it is certainly beautiful out there. how are you feeling? jillian: i'm feeling okay. i have hand and foot warmers. we are covered up right now. anticipating snow today.

we will get to that in a second. 118th army navy game. i'm from this area. i grew up 20 minutes outside the city. one of my favorite things about this weekend has always been leading up to the game. the days leading up to the game when you see people walking around town, thousands of people walking the city streets in uniform it's a cool site, magical site to see. i also want to mention navy had a 14-year win streak going on. army broke that last year. while navy won't admit it, let's just say they are out for revenge. [whistle] >> go navy, beat army. >> go navy, beat army. jillian: are you guyings going to win. >> yes. >> this is the biggest game of the year. >> it's army-navy. the game that's marked on your calendar every year. we have a lot of motivation. >> you win this game it's been worth it. >> you lose every other game during the season and win this one still be happy. >> i don't like to say that.

>> had you a 14-year winning streak was broken last year. how does it feel to try to get redemption this year? >> i don't even remember that. >> remember that movie men in black where you guys are mind erased. >> you are mind erased from previous games. >> sorry. if you look at last year or the past 14, 15 years, it doesn't matter on saturday. >> you won every game at army at lincoln financial field, so does that give you comfort going back. >> there we love going back there it's been good for us. hopefully that luck will continue. jillian: kind of a lucky charm in you're back pocket. >> no doubt. pick up the grass and put it in your pocket. i always do that when i get there. our guys need to play well. >> it's an honor to get to play for people in uniform and for everyone to come together on saturday is a great moment. >> i say -- >> we won it. >> how important is it for you guys to get this win to get the trophy. >> it's everything. like i just said.

>> what is the rivalry like between army and navy. >> army/navy, you know, you have a very hard fought tough battle. and you know at the end of the day we respect each other. we are all on the same team at the end of the day. when we are on the field, we are enemies for that three hours. >> we are brothers in arms off the field. only thing we can hold over their head. obviously we advisory sports basketball and baseball. but academy competition last army-navy game to go out especially with a win. we will bring it. jillian: yeah so, we'll see what happens in a couple hours. kickoff is at 3:00. you guys can see behind me they have the tarp here on the field because we are anticipating snow later today. that wouldn't be the first time they played this game in snow. some of the eagle staff are out putting some swag out there on the seats. griff: go navy. jillian: we are going to get to army a little later in

partisanship and propaganda. the real propaganda is you will love the army or you will love the navy. have you no choice. keep the emails coming friends@foxnews.com. we will be back on the field with jillian this hour as well. president trump up at the white house this morning after being in pensacola, florida. actually is he in mar-a-lago. shorter trip. he said great evening last night in pensacola, florida. arena was packed to the rafters. the crowd was loud, loving and really smart. they definitely get what's going on. thank you, pensacola. so here is -- we couldn't play all 1 hour and 15 minutes of the speech. we did that last night on the channel. this morning we will give you a quick summary what the president said. take a listen. >> let me begin by wishing each and every one of you a very merry christmas, right? and i can think of no better christmas present for the american people than giving

you a massive tax cut. it's time for congress to adopt a pro-american immigration agenda. every member of congress should be asked where they stand on these issues. we want people that are going to protect your gun rights. great trade deals instead of the horrible deal and we want jobs, jobs, jobs. so get out and vote for roy moore do t resisters resist. miller resisted and do you know what happened? she lost the election in a landslide. germany paying 1%. we are paying 4%. i said angela, send a little of that cash flow our way. i have said it so often that my job is not to be present of the worlpresident ofthe worle president of the united states of america. yet, there are powerful

forces in washington trying so sabotage our movement. our revolution didn't end on november 8th. that was just the beginning. the greatest adventure still lies ahead. never give, in never give up, never back down and never ever stop dreaming. i wanted to comment on that speech. as a reporter i covered outside the trump rallies i went to both pensacola ones there were thousands outside that couldn't get in the packed stadium. i think he wanted to make a point to acknowledge the crowd hasn't gotten smaller. the president tweeting this past week about his approval ratings and the fact that he has kept his base. he certainly gave them what they wanted last night. pete: he said that last night. big crowd outside as well. he has not only kept his

base almost even more enthusiastic in light of the resistance he has faced. he was in florida last night, eboni, but that's across the border from another state. eboni: that's alabama. you heard him mention roy moore in that speech last night. very contingent, very enthusiastic roy moore fans tweet from the president at the rally last night. we can't have a pelosi, schumer liberal democrat. jones in that important alabama senate seat need need your vote to make america great again. jones will always vote against what we must do for our country. and so nothing veiled certainly about that tweet. the president being very clear in his report of roy moore and what he is just really plainly outlining as a partisan need for republicans to retain that seat. pete: that's right. he has litigate you had the fact that the democrats in the senate obstructionist. never going to get a vote on them. 51-49. not real at all. that realization says hey even if there is controversy around roy moore. is he a vote for the agenda

that my voters voted for and ultimately we need him. that's the theme. pete: should point out geographically. pensacola floribama. eboni: that panhandle is cultural. pete: he talked about the fake news media. another tweet just minutes ago. the president saying fake news, cnn -- he also called it very fake news at times made a vicious and purposeful mistake yesterday. they were caught red-handed just like lonely brian ross at abc news who should be immediately fire for his quote mistake. watch if cnn fires those responsible or was it just gross incompetence. this litigation of the media will continue. as i said he put out a contest for the fake news trophy. a lot of people competing for it he sees it in the white house. if i'm not being covered fairly or carefully then i'm going to punch back. griff: let's talk about what he is talking about in that tweet. that is we have seen recent

examples, the abc one where it was misrepresented that mike flynn was going to testify against the president. the cnn one, the wikileaks a specific mistake made over a date, right? cnn reporter saying 10 days earlier that it actually turned out he got the email after he was released. a very clear mistake. the cnn reporter on that saying it was a mistake on the source. but, still, as you pointed out, eboni, it is an important mistake because we are talking about the biggest story of the year, the russia probe. and these kind of mistakes cannot be made talking about the number one issue. eboni: not if you want to make a credible argument essentially indicting and some people would mean that literally the president of the united states. the president also last night talked a lot about the rigged system. of course, that's the swamp. it's also the fbi and this investigation. take a listen. >> it's being proven we have a rigged system. this is a sick system from the inside.

and, you know, there is no country like our country, but we have a lot of sickness in some of our institutions. and we're working very hard. we have got a lot of them straightened out. did you see all the correction he is the media has been making? they took this fraudster from abc. they suspended him for a month. cnn apologized a little while ago. thank you cnn, thank you so much. eboni: wait, was that sarcasm? pete: like when jillian said earlier in the show i'm always right. definitely sarcastic and not true. drip, drip drip what we have seen last week where members of the so-called special counsel and the former fbi and doj agents, some of which are still there. some of which are out have been exposed for overt political bias including most recently andrew weissmann number two special

counsel happened to find himself on election night what was supposed to be in their mind hillary clinton victory election night. instead it was the opposite. political affiliation. another thing to give a donation which everyone is allowed to do. stunt mean you can't be unbiased if you are leading what the president calls the witch-hunt of the special impeachment counsel against the president and you are celebrating and hoping that hillary clinton is the president, it shows that there is more than just bias there. there is investment in hillary clinton as opposed to. eboni: i thought corey actually had some really strong points on this issue of objectivity and really the rigging of the system. >> look, it's the deep state. it's those holdovers in the government who are still there from the obama administration. it's the fbi agents and let me say this. 99.99% of these guys and women are the best in the business. but we find out now that we have got one agent, maybe two. right? who are in charge of the clinton investigation? changing what the wording should be, not putting huma

abedin under oath. not putting cheryl mills under oath. different sets of rules for different sets of people. mike flynn lies to the fbi is he a felon. huma, cheryl and hillary lie that's not a problem. griff: don't forget the judge mike film pled guilty to recusing himself and we still don't know why. eboni: we don't know why and as a lawyer it looks a little weird to me. you accepted the plea. so you thought you were appropriate on the bench in that capacity, when it comes to the sentencing we see the recusal. not good. pete: seeing a lot of changes. you wonder if any of it would have been exposed if hillary clinton had won. instead she didn't. the investigation in some ways falling apart. a group of conservative students stands um for the flag after their fellow classmates protest. now they are the ones getting punished. griff: president trump touting the economy in his impact on your investments. >> and by the way, how are your 401(k)s doing? not too bad, right?

pete: dingo. president trump tout ago booming economy at his packed rally in florida. how have the president's policies impacted your investments? eboni: here to break it down for us the host of varney and company on the fox business network. call him the king of fox business. >> they do? eboni: oh yeah. they do. stuart varney. help us see this the economy is looking just smashing it really is from 401(k)s and 3% growth and expecting it to get bigger and better for next year. tell us about that. >> this is an area where president trump is winning and the democrats are actually not doings terribly well. point number one, we have the best growth rate in a decade. number two, we have the lowest unemployment in 17 years. number three. we got this jobs report for november. we are gaining speed. gaining momentum. there are 1,000 new manufacturing jobs created every single day in the month of november. and now we're getting tax

cuts pretty sure we are getting tax cuts. more spendable cash on the part of consumers right from the get-go in january plus more business investment i think this is a forecast, an opinion. 4% growth next year. griff: because of the tax cuts. >> in part. have you infrastructure plan coming, too. i don't know whether that's going to be successful. but it's on the cards to get in place next year more spendable stimulus for the economy. griff: is it fair to say in the first year the regulations the president dealt with got us to the g.d.p. over 3%. add tax cuts it's only going to go north? >> that would be my opinion add to the deregulation, add to that the hope of tax cuts to come. when business thinks mane we are going to get increase. consumers think we will get more money. when you start to think like that you start to spend more immediately hoping that's going to be true in the

future. eboni: let me ask you this, stuart, it was almost on election night you started to see this anticipation around what was to come. let me ask you how long you think it's going to remain anticipatory. >> when we get tax cuts implemented january the 1st. no longer anticipatory. reality january the 1st. elections night november 8th. when he was elected november the 9th on that morning consumer confidence just bounced up immediately. and the stock market started the most extraordinary rally it's huge, your 401(k). [laughter] >> you want to get the bit coin. hold on a second. our viewers got a 401(k) or corporate pension plan, that money in those pension funds is probably up between a quarter and a third in the last year. that is huge. pete: no doubt the stock market rally you can start the clock on election night and move forward and that is

due to the confidence in this president. president obama has himself has said thanks obama i laid the groundwork for this. he is trying to take credit for the rally in g.d.p. and jobs and others. what do you say to that argument? >> i he stabilized the economy in difficult position in 2008 when he first took over the white house, fair enough. his policies did not produce growth it did not produce prosperity. and by reversing those policies that's what president trump has done. eboni: talking about regulation? >> yes. the regulation and as you say the anticipatory. pete: government is working for business as opposed to adversarial to it. >> i'm a capitalist, knock i want to see bigger dine michelle and growth for the economy. that will restore us. griff: can you come over on christmas morning and deliver more good news? we are going to need that? >> >> twist my arm. griff: merry christmas. pete: merry christmas. pete: coming up, skier lindsey vonn says she will

represent the america at the olympics but not the president in the white house. captain mike eruzione reacts to that coming up. eboni: president called them out for it. >> cnn apologized just a little while ago. they apologized -- oh, thank you cnn. thank you so much you should have been apologizing for the last two years. griff: diamond and silk are here to react next. i love diamond and silk ♪ do what you want to do ♪ [vo] quickbooks introduces jeanette

see these signs, resist, resist. [cheers] oh these resisters resist. hillary resisted and do you know what happened? she lost the election in a landslide. eboni: that was president trump, of course, talking about the resistance. at his florida rally last night. democratic congressman calls for house minority leader, yes, you heard that right, nancy pelosi to resign. >> i have been calling for our leaders to step down and to allow a new generation of lishedz tleaders to step up andd our party for a long time. griff: is it time for her to go. let's ask one of campaign advisors chairman of the

harris poll and manager partner of the stagwell group mark penn. good morning, mark. >> good morning. griff: what do you make of all this talk? a mass mats democrat calling for her to go and, of course, minority leader making some comments i bet she would like to take back. >> well, look, i think in many ways it's just a matter of time and pelosi, i suspect, is going to make it through the mid terms and turn over the reigns to someone else after that. right now democrats are leading in the mid terms. she has very strong fundraising machine. she has done pretty well on healthcare. i don't think she is going anywhere right now even with the conyers misstep. i think though a lot of younger democrats are saying hey, make room. have you got too many seniority rules in terms of keeping people in place in the democratic party. she is almost 80. younger leaders want a chance to lead. eboni: mark, to that point, obviously, you mentioned her financial strong hold on the party. nobody raises money for the dems hardly like nancy

pelosi. you are right. when you talk to democrats that are in younger leadership positions, many of them feel like they are being strong armed by the senior leadership of the party. and they are silenced around the messaging issue. what's your take on pelosi and how effective she will be even once she steps down? >> my take is she's a very strong leader. she has really kept her caucus together. i think she obviously has some moments where she goes off script i think what a lot of the younger democrats really want to see is seniority rules on the committee chairman like the republicans have. so they have an opportunity to get to leadership faster. people don't want to wait around in congress for 30 years to have an opportunity to do something. time that leaders like her really recognize that for the younger generation. griff: market, let me bring you back to president trump's resist comments and he of course made it very entertaining and stuff. is this a wishing strategy for democrats who by the way pelosi isn't fresh blood.

bernie sanders isn't fresh blood. chuck schumer isn't fresh blood. the democrats say they are poised. is resistance the winning strategy that's going to get them across the finish line and take back some of the powers in congress. >> first of all i'm not a fan of the resistance strategy. win or lose on the issues. is trump responsible on the economy or not. what's going to help the middle class. issues that the democrats can run on and can win. remember, there is usually a desire in this country to have a split congress. right now if i look at the polls, probably two or three points have shifted in the democratic direction and democrats have an edge. griff: we will see what happens. mark penn thank you for joining us this morning. eboni: thank you for joining us. these two military wives swam in the shark tank and now their handbag business is booming. each one of them is in america and they are right here with a special gift for our fox viewers up next. stay tuned ♪

of people in that crowd were definitely going to be going to the polls on tuesday, the president talking hitting hard get out the vote for roy moore and in fact, the president tweet ing today a very big contingent of very enthusiastic roy moore fans at the rally last night. we can't have a pelosi schumer liberal democrat jones in that important alabama senate seat, need your vote to make america great again. jones will always vote against what we must do for our country, and interesting move there to make this stop. he didn't campaign in alabama but he pretty much is in-- >> eboni: effectively and listen what i take from that, guys is it's a very clear statement from the president whether he believes the allegations or not, certainly we've seen sarah huckabee sanders having to deal with that quite a bit at the podium but he's saying that politics are going to be the priority for him and he's being very clear about it. >> pete: i think he's saying his agenda is what the priority is for him. he's going to get the votes by one or two votes from republican

s because the democrat s are unwilling to work with him even if it's in their political best interest some time. chuck schumer runs a tight caucus. the president is also up earlier this morning hitting on something he hit on last night about what he sees as a rigged and sick system including fake news. he's hit three tweets about cnn who he called fake news and very fake news with another slogan for him this morning and says cnn slogan is the most trusted name in news. everyone knows this is not true, that this could in fact be a fraud on the american public. there are many outlets far more trusted than fake news cnn. their slogan should be cnn, the least trusted name in news. another nickname from the president. >> griff: just so our viewers understand in case they missed it why the president is going after cnn, a reporter said that essentially this wick it leak stuff came 10 days before it actually happened and what happened is the wikileaks thing e-mail came out and then the e-mail went-- >> pete: it looked like collusion. >> griff: here is the thing when the president says that the

media keeps getting it wrong on the biggest story of the year, the russia probe, they are. it's not just cnn, it's abc and some other outlets on multiple situations and do you know as you've said eboni, the facts matter. >> eboni: the facts matter a lot simply because he is the sitting president and when you're going to come at him, as some say i'm a big fan, they say when you come for the king you better not miss and what we're seeing is a few misses certainly from some of these mainstream organizations and also, the fbi. we see the president using his twitter account to really talk about how most of the men and women in the fbi are doing a great job but there are a few we're hearing more and more about that at least appear to be compromised in their ability to objectively investigate and and assess this situation. >> pete: have a non-partisan lens. griff you talk about how ultimately this system the president makes this is the biggest story of the year the russia probe. guess who made it the biggest story of the year? the fake news media who obsesses over it so from this president's point of view it's not the

biggest story of the year but a fake story perpetuated throughout the year and a system and the fbi and bob mueller and special investigation that looked like its rigged against him. he talked about all these things from the podium in a way that only president trump can. take a listen. >> president trump: its been proven we have a rigged system. this is a sick system from the inside and you know, there's no country like our country, but we have a lot of sickness in some of our institutions and we're working very hard. we've got a lot of them straightened out. did you see all the corrections the media has been making? they took this fraudster from abc, and then cnn apologized just a little while ago. they apologized oh, thank you, cnn, thank you so much. >> pete: given this context, you know these rallies started because he wanted to talk directly to the people and now that the message filtered through the mainstream media, now he has the mainstream media

getting it wrong and a system that's literally facing legitimate real legal problems. you're a lawyer, eboni. >> eboni: from a legal lens here is what's concerning and one of the great casualties of the 2016 election were our department of justice and the state department and one of the things i so hoped 2017 would do is restore credibility to those all-important american institutions and unfortunately we sit here on this couch this morning and they're not restored at all and it's a real problem because if you're just an every day american whose not really caught up in the hyper partisan ship of all of this you just want the truth and you want answers. >> pete: that's a fair point but here is the question are they actually being restored i'd say if the whole system-- >> eboni: my point is they are. >> pete: if hillary clinton had won the election would we know about any of this or the wiretapping and how the doj and fbi had a political slant? probably not because they were all in vested in the clinton victory. instead the guy who wasn't supposed to win one and the deep state exposed itself on how much

in the tank it was for the democrats. this is a cleansing period and unfortunately before you get to trust you have to expose and a lot of us feel like finally the deep state and the clinton obama bureaucracy are being exposed at the state department at the doj at the top of the fbi. you can't have a real system unless it's run by man or women with partisan views. >> eboni: or women, that's right we do have headlines and also, a fox news alert. president trump is declaring a state of emergency. the ordeal to deal out federal funds to california's out of control wildfires ravaged the state. this is the first fire-related death is confirmed. a 70 year old woman was found dead in her car at the site of a crash along an evacuation route ventura county. medical examiners say she died from injuries sustained in the crash. smoke inhalation and burns. and another fox news alert, iraq now totally liberated from isis. a major declaration coming just this morning, a senior iraqi

>> president trump: this is a rigged system. this is a sick system from the inside and you know, there's no country like our country but we have a lot of sickness in some of our institutions and we're working very hard. we've got pay lot of them straightened out. >> griff: another reason president trump calls it a rigged system wall street journal reporting top mueller deputy andrew weisplan at the

election night party. >> eboni: this coming after fox news reported he praised acting attorney general sally yates for defying president trump's travel ban. >> pete: he was in awe of her resistance so what does this mean for the ongoing reports of bias on mueller's team here to weigh in fox news contributor chef political correspondent byron york good morning appreciate you being here. so these latest revelations they look a lot like a partisan who also happens to be at the top of the fbi who also happens to be in the middle of all of the hillary and trump investigations >> byron: exactly and they fit into an emerging case against mueller that i think you're see ing being made by a lot of trump supporters. there's the fbi supervisory agent, peter strzok who was kicked off the mueller investigation for anti-trump pro -clinton tweets that he exchanged with another fbi lawyer who was also who also left the mueller investigation. there is this case of andrew wei

sman viewed as one of mueller 's most aggressive prosecutors, and another mueller prosecutor defended a figure in the clinton e-mail an aid to hillary clinton in the clinton e-mail matter and yet, another mueller prosecutor not only defended the clinton foundation but also defended hillary clinton personally. >> eboni: let me ask you this, byron, yes absolutely. reporting out a lot of ranging facts here but as you said there have been people that have been removed from the investigation due to partisanship. from your estimation do you think that type of stuff the removal of some of these individuals goes anyway towards robert mueller retaining any credibility around his leading the investigation? >> byron: one of the things we'll need to see as far as that particular case peter strzok we need to see the texts. how bad were they? everybody can make a judgment if we actually see them and we eventually will see them, but

you know, i think some people have misinterpreted some of these criticisms of mueller as an attempt to go the president into firing mueller or encourage the president to fire mueller. more, i think, they're actually trying to discredit any results, any actions that mueller might take if they get close to the president. >> griff: byron, it's hard to keep track of this. how many members is it five, is it 10 of mueller's team is now under this kind of scrutiny and at what point do the american people say we've just lost confidence in this investigation >> byron: well this started with reports pretty much at the beginning of the mueller investigation that he hired a number of people who had been democratic donors, and specifically donated to hillary clinton and by the way, there is an argument that mueller himself has a conflict in that he's quite close to james comey, they've been described as brothers in arms, both former fbi directors, and comey of

course is perhaps the key figure in any obstruction of justice case against the president. >> griff: byron york has his finger on the pulse. byron thank you very much. >> thank you. >> griff: talking in point even mueller has questions this is a big story i think as the year-ends up. >> pete: thankfully jim comey is tweeting bible versus. >> griff: that's not all president trump is talking about also touting his america first policy after his historic move recognizing jerusalem of israel 's capital so why is he being criticized for standing up for allies? >> pete: speaking of that claim, and hillary clinton rigged the system to keep bernie from winning the nomination. now democrats want to change the rules again. any more super delegates? we'll find out. ♪ dream on, dream on, dream on dream until your dream comes true ♪

advisory councilmember good morning guys. >> good morning. >> griff: i want to start with you david. what is the reaction to the president's decision on jerusalem? >> well israel is an important allie for the u.s. and we need to do things to show that and president trump did this in order to show that but there are much better ways to send this message. unfortunately this is not something that's going to advance the u.s. interest so this does not follow his america first policy. here is why. this is actually going to make it more difficult for us to do diplomacy all of the other embassies are in tel aviv. this is going to be costly to move this embassy and also a significant security risk because the embassy in jerusalem will be a big target but most importantly, this is going to make it harder for us to achieve our primary objective which is to push along the peace process between the palestinians and israel because this is inflamed tensions in the middle east and made our partners like jordan, like saudi arabia who we need to support us as we try to move towards a peace process also

angry about this decision so for those reasons it hurts our primary objectives in the middle east without helping us in anyway. >> griff: hang on david you got a lot in there. steve what do you make of that and also generally does the president deserve this much ridicule? >> of course not one of the reasons he's being ridiculed is because he's a politician who keeps his promises, isn't that amazing and it shocks people in washington d.c. i call him president promise keeper and this was an important promise to the jewish community in america certainly to israel more than anything though griff, look this is just a recognition of actual facts. it is a fact that jerusalem has been for time in memorial for thousands of years the capitol of the jewish people generally and it has been for 70 years the capitol of the modern state of israel so to channel a is a, jerusalem is the capitol of israel. we are recognizing facts and reality and it's respectful to our incredible allies. >> griff: but steve does it as david says it doesn't move our

policies forward. it doesn't help us from a u.s. policy standpoint. how does this move us forward, how does this help relations there? >> look, i think it moves us forward again by recognizing the actual truth of the situation of being respectful of israel. by the way too the president gets very little attention i think and recognition for what he's doing in the middle east. the fact that isis is all but eliminated in months into the trump presidency is pretty amazing. equally amazings there's a reform agenda going on inside saudi arabia and largely the credit belongs with president trump and our new alliance with mbs, so great things are happening in the middle east recognizing jewish as, jerusalem as the capitol of the jewish people of the modern state of israel is consistent with a president who puts the facts first. >> griff: one thing that's not great is we're seeing protests breaking out violence in the west bank david is it your view this is a security risk?

>> well it definitely is. it has caused significant problems for our policy in the middle east and notably steve did not address any of my key points. my most important message is that if we want to help israel, they are more substantive, more positive ways to do that that help u.s. interest and israeli interests. for instance there's a bill moving through congress right now that would eliminate funding for the palestinian authority if it continues to fund suicide bombers. that's a really positive policy, a real positive contribution by the u.s. , that will help galvanize supporters in israel and also push palestinian authority to do the right thing. that's the type of thing we should be doing to send the right message to israel but also to advance our own interests and moving the process forward. it's not either or. we can still do that and by the way one thing this president won't do, which your boss did president obama we won't be sending a billion and a half dollars in cash, that will not happen.

>> you're a great cheerleader for president trump but you haven't addressed anything. >> griff: listen guys i've got to leave it right there that topic for another day. thanks for joining us guys. all right, you're looking live at air force one in west palm beach, president trump about to take off for mississippi to attend the opening of the civil rights museum but some democrats are boycotting just because he will be there. we'll have reaction from sheriff david clark. that's next. and do you know the difference between a man cold and a mom cold? you don't just want to miss this viral video ahead. >> i have the same cold that you have and i'm pretty sure i don't have that much empathy because i as well have the exact same cold you do and i'm doing laundry and dishes and dealing with the kids you obviously need your rest due to the fact that you're a big baby man child. ♪

>> pete: we are back with a live look in west palm beach florida where any moment the president will be taking off on air force one to attend the opening of the civil rights museum in jackson, mississippi. >> eboni: but not without controversy in fact there's strong opposition to his attendance. >> griff: garrett tenney is live in jackson garrett good morning what can we expect in mississippi? >> reporter: well good morning i can tell you one thing i did not expect to see in jackson this is my first snow of the year. i lived here in high school for a cup years and we never saw this kind of thing so i can tell you as excited as folks are about the snow we also have

today's opening of the civil rights museum and museum of mississippi history and the president he is scheduled to come here and tour the museum a couple hours from now before giving a speech to a small crowd of about 200 folks civil rights leaders as well as museum patron s and local elected officials as well. now president trump we're told his remarks will focus on honoring those who fought intolerance, hatred and bigotry and will focus on bringing the nation together and that is something we heard him talk about last night a bit in his rally in pensacola, but his speech today will not be apart of the public ceremony and instead it will take place just before that and that decision was made after protests came out from civil rights leaders as well as the naacp and democrats who were outraged that the president was invited to speak here. now civil rights icon congressman john lewis was scheduled to speak at today's ceremony but he canceled his appearance in protest and said in a statement trump's attendance and his hurtful policies are an insult to the people portrayed in his this

civil rights museum and the white house said it's unfortunate lewis and others won't be joining the president to honor those civil rights leaders who took part in those efforts and they say in addition to the other protests that are scheduled to take place today they say it is extremely unfortunate this event can't be about unifying the country. >> pete: garrett tenney, thanks a lot. >> griff: also benny thompson representative also from mississippi not going certainly going to create more divisions and that's why we talked to the sheriff. the man who knows a lot about these sorts of things, sheriff david clark good morning to you how are you and first of all the president will be upset if we didn't say to you merry christmas. >> merry christmas to you as well. >> pete: appreciate it so sheriff what do you make of the fact that the president has been invited he's going to speak at the civil rights museum and we've got very famous civil rights what we call hem, icon decided not to be there. what do you think of that boycott? >> john who? >> eboni: john lewis, he was bloodied on the selma bridge

sheriff when trying to protest voting rights and a variety of things. >> john lewis has become one of the most irrelevant members of congress. have you taken eboni a look at his congressional district, the high poverty, the high unemployment, the crime that goes on, the failing schools that have gone on in his district under his leadership into look nobody cares what john lewis is doing. he's been reduced to being a character in that he has to pull a political stunt like this, he can't even honor the civil rights museum opening. he has to pull a political stunt to get news coverage that's how bad this is. look donald trump realizes he's the president of all people. he also realizes that actions speak louder than words, so his showing up, i think signals and what these people are afraid of that president donald trump is

winning hearts and minds quietly and slowly throughout black america as they are willing to give him a chance as he asks during the campaign, so i think the event will be better off without those people there. >> eboni: sheriff let me say this to you. for you to say that nobody cares about john lewis is inaccurate because i assure you that there are many people across this country that absolutely do care about him. as for your commentary on his political record as a congressman, i'm actually not even addressing that part because this museum opening is about the civil rights of american citizens, so when it comes to his record on that, sheriff clark, i think that it's pretty undisputed. >> well let me say this to you, eboni, that if you went into any black high school and probably most black colleges in america and talked to black people under the age of 35, they would not know who john lewis is. i'm not trying to diminish what he did, but i'm talking about today. i'm talking about today, what he did was a political stunt. i think it's a slap in the face

and keep this in mind too, eboni , that if it weren't for the republicans in kong rinse in the 1960s there would be no civil rights act, there would be no voting rights act, as lyndon johnson the democrat president had to use republicans, he had to rally republicans in order to pass the civil rights act and the voting rights act. >> pete: sheriff hold on. >> eboni: here is the thing though sheriff. i appreciate that history lesson but as somebody that holds a degree on the subject i really don't need you to update me on who was required for lyndon johnson-- >> apparently you've forgotten your history. >> eboni: i actually don't have anything against republicans. >> pete: i wouldn't know the civil rights museum is being opened up if this president had not agreed to accept the speech. isn't he shining a light on a very important museum as well? >> exactly. he adds to the moment and is being responsible and doing so. look donald trump could careless about whether any of these people are showing up or what they think. he's going to do what's in the best interest of all americans and the right thing to do, the

best thing to do is to show up at this opening and just kind of ignore the fact that some people have chosen this to use as a platform to make a political statement. >> griff: okay sheriff i've got something maybe you and eboni will agree upon and that is president trump talking about keeping us safe. take a listen. >> president trump: we're going to have safety and we've got a lot more now. we're getting rid of the ms13 animals. >> [applause] >> president trump: we're going to have safety again, because america is more than just a place on a map. america is a nation. america is a family. america is ours to love and to cherish and to protect and to take care of and that's what we're doing. we're going to take care of this country for our children and our grandchildren and our great grandchildren and we're not going to let people come into our country who are going to destroy our country. >> griff: sheriff what's your reaction to those comments?

>> well look it was the hallmark of his campaign law and order, the rule of law. ms13 has been allowed to go on in this country and exist for several decades. they've been around since the 1980s everyone ignored them and now it's a huge problem but it is going to be taken care of by president trump through the united states department of justice who are lending their resources to the local law enforcement. they have more teeth with the federal code and can provide money for the overtime to take the burden off some of the local budgets to get this done but he is going to rid this country of this evil gang this very violent vicious gang ms13. >> pete: that's certainly what they are. sheriff clark, thank you for your time this morning. >> you're very welcome. >> pete: merry christmas. >> eboni: still ahead let it snow. we're going to take a live look at the white house, the first big snowstorm of the season hitting right now. we've also got some tips on how you can protect your home and your car coming up. >> pete: it's falling behind us as well and we're also expecting snow at the army navy game
