[laughter] snow and now got them singing about surfing? griff: we're going surfing today. we are bringing the waves and surf board. eboni k. williams welcome back to the couch. are you ready to go surfing? eboni: i am. i brought my gear. i'm excited. will. pete: army right. eboni: picked the winner.

griff: congratulations. pete: about 5 feet. tough kick 48 yards in the snow. griff griff what a game. i wish i would have bet on the number of passes thrown. >> eboni: smash mouth football. pete: old school no passes. all runs. you still can't stop it got to love it. griff: going surfing. going to surf our way through the news. pete: fake news. griff: gets in a fight over twitter with the "the washington post." pete: yesterday we saw the rally in pensacola we talked about it yesterday at the top of each hour. the president was in rare form. we knew it was a packed form. he tweeted on our show up to the rafters. reporter from "the washington post" went to twitter and tweeted this out. we will set it all up for you. president trump started out a tweet calling out dave walling. he said with a picture of what was going on at the

rally. and a tweet from president trump. i don't know which tweet we are putting up. put up the one we have. there is dave wag gel. he tweeted this earlier in the day. he said packed to the rafters what the president had said. that doesn't look packed to the rafters. >> that's a skeleton crew of the rally. well, it turns out that photo was taken about 2 hours or a few hours before the actual event. dave weigel either knew or didn't know that president trump tweeted this @ dave weigel at "the washington post." put out a phony photo of an empty arena hours before i arrived at the venue with thousands of people outside on their way. in real photos now show as i spoke. packed house, many people enable to get. in demanding apology and refraction from fake news.

griff: apology wasn't sincere. sure thing, i apologize. i deleted the photo after i had gotten it wrong. confused by the image of you walking by in the bottom right corner. pete: if you do the forensics on the photo there, maybe could have been on the photo where it showed an empty -- an image in the bottom right where it looked kind of like the president. advance guy. can't see it bottom, bottom right. eboni: not quite satisfied. griff: another member of the media trying to undermine the president's rally to diminish the support that he had at the rally which, as the president took to twitter his excaliber. i will tell you why i said that in just a moment. eboni: i heard that over the weekend. griff: took to twitter to knock down these allegations. steve: he apologized dave weigel.

just admitted that his picture was a fake or fraud showing almost empty arena for my speech in pensacola when in fact he knew the arena was packed also as shown on tv. fake news. he should be fired. i think the issue a lot of us take with this is the immediacy, the quickness reporter will go to twitter with one photo to say not true, not true which would have never been done in previous administrations. eboni: used to be this thing where it was more important to be right than first. i think in this day and age, maybe. i don't know if it's a race to tweet first. i have think people are causing themselves a lot of credibility arranged this need to be first and wrong. griff: why is he calling for any member to be fired in this case because the reporter sought to undermine him as i point out. here is the deal about journalism. you gather facts. you get it correct. you make sure it's right. you give some context and

report it wherever the chips may fall. pete: every journalist has their own bias. what trump has done is ferreted out all the liberals which is most journalists in numerous can't help themselves because they hate trump so much they will do anything to take him down. eboni: i don't disagree with the bias. obviously i think we all know it's there i have had some friends at different news organizations acknowledge that they absolutely feel a way about this president and sometimes it shows in their reporting. here is the issue though, right? we also have a first amendment. therefore there are some people now taking to twitter in lieu of the president calling for this guy to be fired saying that this is like a chilling effect of potus on the first amendment. , which again is, a different issue. griff: i disagree with my friend pete here a little bit. i don't think dave weigel should get fired. he apologized.

here is the bigger thing. we wake up today and look at the news. grab a copy of your "new york times." all-star team of hafferman, baker. pete: is he on your all star feel? not mine. griff: 3, 4 page article about the president. the headline the president vs. the presidency. pete, what did you make of that? pete: you raised a great point. we will read a little bit of the quote. go ahead, griff. griff: this stood out to me as a journalist, what? despite all his bluster he views himself less as a titan dominating the world stage than maligned outsider engaged in the struggle to be taken seriously according to interviews with 60 advisors, associates, friends and members of congress. there is everything wrong with that statement. and you know this whole notion about anonymous sources, about putting things out there. in this case, an unflattering article. pete: so much going on in

the world. eboni: this is sunday "new york times." this is the predominant. show him the cover. this is the story. pete: zoom in on the title here. it's failing. eboni: okay, pete. this is of the "new york times" in a lot of east and west coast mainstream people. not understanding donald trump. not understanding the way his mind works and not understanding what makes him think. they are very dumb found. literally dumb found around how he operates. i think when you read, this and i actually did read it, it really goes deep into all this stuff how often he watches television. how many diet cokes he drinks. they are going so deep trying to figure him out and really not getting any closer. pete: you see the banner right here. the hour-by-hour fight for self-preservation. they make it out to look like this guy may not last another hour so he tweets and drink diet cokes and eats this and talks to this person. in light of all the news,

there is so much going on in the world. so much that's been accomplished. when i talk about the failing, i'm not trying to pair anything or say they fail every day and their ratings are down. failure to be honest and objective about what their agenda really is. eboni: i don't think they understanding it though, pete. i think they honestly don't get it. griff: let me tell you what the "new york times" views donald trump as chauncey gardner which is a reference from the movie "being there" old film with peter sellers, this guy has been isolated his entire life. he is a simpleton. he attends to a garden. wealthy guy dies. by the end of the movie the guy is running for president of the united states brand of simple wisdom has caught on all across the country. they don't know what to do with him. he can't be stopped. famous line is i like to watch. his entire knowledge has come from watching television, right? they see donald trump, president donald trump as chauncey gardner because they did a giant article where all they say is the president sits in his office

watching television and tweeting. pete: i like to watch. griff: twitter is excaliber. pete: i like to watch except i like to build massive real estate empires and become a billionaire. eboni: that's a lot there. griff: in fairness, they could have been writing about the tax reform that's likely to get passed next week. about coming off the jobs friday. eboni: they could be talking about roy moore and a lot of things. instead, still trying to figure out president donald trump. another big story that i thought was really unfortunate to me as an american. obviously also as a woman. comedian chelsea handler she went after press secretary sarah sanders. let's look at the video. >> my name is sarah huckabee sanders. my face is a big. just like the foundation of america, it's republican. it's strong and it's white. and i used to not know what foundation was. but our great president was

kind enough to take me to is he for arsephora. see that fellow right here. make him a woman. blush is very accessible. get this drugstore next to the gun store. pick up your guns because it is your american right. i know what you guys were thinking. she is only 35. i get it i got my dad's old face. eboni: let me tell you what my is. i actually have a huge sense of humor. i give comedians actually a lot of leeway. griff: we should. boinel bone like you said, pete, it's their editorial opinion. they can go there and make this type of humor sellable. my issue is when you look at her make jofer, right? it's clear that she is trying to disparage sarah's book. i wrote a book pretty powerful talks about this issue. talks about how women are picked apart and scrutinized tremendous and unfairly about how we look in the

workplace, in particular. i take a huge issue with this. i think sarah huckabee sanders first of all looks fantastic when she is at that program doing a hard job. dana perino has been there and done that job. difficult when you are under scrutiny like that. she could have left that part out of it. griff: twitter was totally outraged. this is becoming the arena through which we derive how things are being perceived. when it's undeniable in one way, you can believe that, you know, it struck the wrong chord, if you will. pete: air ella tweeted this you cannot claim to champion women's rights and simultaneously mock a successful woman's looks simply because you disagree politically. eboni: from dan deign glad to see how much of a strong feminist you are, by

promoting positive body immanuel of other females. going around her looks i felt was unnecessary. pete: let us know what you think friends@foxnews.com. how outrageous is this? why are we going to looks when we can go to the issues? griff: we will talk to governor mike huck be about that. we are going surfing today. i would like the viewers to read that "new york times" article and give feedback on that. pete: just watch us for the rest of the show. go army. president trump talking tough this week on illegal immigration. >> we are throwing them the hell out of our country, or we are putting them in prison. so what do the american people think about that? we have the brand new dials you will only see here. griff: the president says roy moore has to win the alabama senate race to keep his agenda going. and our guest says he's right. tammy bruce is on deck. hi, tammy.

[cheers] and we want jobs, jobs, jobs. so get out and vote for roy moore. do it, do it. pete: president trump rallying for roy moore in florida for the alabama race and saying america can't afford the republican candidate to lose. is he right? eboni: joining success fox news contributor and radio

talk show host tammy bruce. >> good morning. eboni: thank you for joining us on this issue. eboni: give you context how high the stakes are because these are very huge stakes for america. let's look at the senate balance of power. we have a graph. look how close those numbers look right now. we have 52 republican senators. we have 46 democrats. two independent u.s. senators. so certainly the president needs to retain republican power in this seat. tammy, your thoughts on that. >> yeah. even in the mid terms you are looking at expanding that we have seen, the democrats have already said that the they are just going to obstruct. when you have a block like that that's going to be operate on the personal and the political. it becomes more difficult. so it's interesting what the president is doing with roy moore. he is not being seen with mr. moore, of course. but he is being very blatant in his endorsement. it's because he doesn't want, and i think it's wise, an image to run, this the characters of the personalities to be what the factor is he wants the issues to be the factor.

so you saw that in his tweets about roy moore. you heard that in the sound bite you played that this really is about -- because, you know, he endorsed, of course, he walls for luther strange in the primary. we know where he stands. the fact is we are looking at well, since he was elected 2.2 million jobs created. lowest hispanic unemployment rate in the history of the country. the most manufacturing dynamic that we have had. so we want that to continue. and the people of alabama see this as a policy more so than roy moore. pete: tammy, what is it about this president because almost 40 republican senators came out when all these allegations first came out against roy moore and said he should step down or not run. the president was never part of that chorus has stood by him. if quietly at first and now openly, why does he have the instinct to say this may be a vote i need when others will abandon it quickly? >> the republican party does not really have a good track record on winning. they don't have a good track record on moving forward their agenda.

they are now faced with a president who wants to do both things. they are not going to be changing their spots any time quickly. none of us are surprised. and i think most people are also not taking the democrats seriously. this is a party who elevated his line of the senate. a man who left a woman to die in a car at the bought of the lake. not moral superiority. i'm not going to tell them who to voted for. i wasn't a fan of roy moore. i am a fan of what the president is trying to accomplish. that is what you will see in alabama. we will see what they do. the fact of the matter is this is part of the transition we are in. the president seems to be making that very clear. pete: we're very happy to have a does that politan. >> for every state of the union it's important mix in washington we have to keep them honest and forward

looking. pete: thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you, guys. pete: mainstream media making a sear reels of missteps coverage of donald trump. you need to buy a car

♪ pete: welcome back to "fox & friends" on this sunday. some quick headlines for you. and extreme weather. millions of people in the northeast are digging out this morning from the season's biggest -- first big snow storm. some coastal areas receiving up to 6 inches, including my house. black ice now creating treacherous travel conditions. the storms also strapping passengers at airports with thousands of flight delays and cancellations. this is the same storm that blanketed parts of the south with nearly 200,000 customers losing power. and in our second story, the

firefighters are finally getting the you were hand on six massive wildfires carving paths of destruction in southern california. some now 50% are contained or more. that's great news. but the thomas fire in ventura county still raging, consuming 155,000 acres and counting. it's 15% contained but officials are hopeful. governor brown are not hoping the devastating fires are not the new normal. >> they threaten people's lives and neighborhoods. pete: destroyed 800 structures and forced more than 200,000 people out of their homes. griff? over to you. griff: thanks, pete. the media forced to backtrack several times misreporting on the russia investigation. as a candidate trump called

michael flynn to reach out to the russians. cnn forced to correct the story about wikileaks and donald trump jr. so do these mistakes derail the russian collusion narrative? here to date about it is fox news richard fowl fowler and lawrence jones host of the blaze. i want to get right into this. this is the biggest story of the year. now you have the media making mistake after mistake after mistake. richard, i will start with you. has this put the fork in the russia collusion story. >> i think it's unfortunate that the media hasn't gotten this right. it's imperative that journalist do extra jobs to make sure they educate the american people correctly about exactly what's happening here. i don't think that takes away from the narrative because the fact pattern still remains the same. paul manafort, the chairman of the trump campaign has been indicted. mike flynn. >> that's not true. >> mike flynn, the former national security advisor of the president of the united states not only plead

pleaded guilty says he will be working with the special prosecutor meaning he is a big fish and he is going to talk to mueller about what he knows and what he doesn't know. that is huge when you think about the facts. griff: talking about the facts, lawrence, facts matter, media mistakes, what do you say? >> this is what happened. this is what the press does as well. they just throw things out there to the american people without being quite honest. yes, manafort was indicted not on collusion. yes, flynn is cooperating but he has never said anything about donald trump being involved. what we know that is consistent fact is that members of the intelligence community has always said that there is no evidence of collusion with the president as well as reasonable members of congress on both sides of the aisle has said there is no evidence. they can continue to throw this stuff around but it's not fact-based. griff: richard, i will let

you respond. >> here is the thing, we don't know the fullness of this investigation. anybody who is anybody, anybody who is a lawyer or prosecutor will tell you the information the press is getting is not a full fact pattern. >> they haven't gotten any of it right. >> excuse me, we don't know that. griff: here's the deal. the media is making mistakes, guys, at the same time there is undeniable scrutiny about the impartiality and fairness of mueller's team itself. numerous members getting kicked off. a judge recusing himself. >> that's right. griff: the question is, richard, i want you to address, this can we trust the media as they scrutinize the fairness of mueller's investigation to begin with. >> i think you have to pars it. the media is one place and the media is another. we can trust mueller. he was appointed by the first bush. he was appointed by the second bush. he was appointed by ronald reagan. is he one of america's top prosecutors. we can trust him. the fact that he is firing people on his team who show any level of bias speaks to the fact that we can trust

him. that's different from the fact that the media has got this narrative wrong. and i think it's imperative like i said at the top of the segment for the media to make sure they double and kwame check their facts before they present them to the american people. griff: lawrence, i want to give you the last word. >> real quick, griff, he fired them after they had completed parts -- >> -- as soon as he found out about the bias they were removed. >> let me finish. >> how could you fire somebody before you found out they had a bias. >> this will become fruit from the poisonous tree. he should have done his due diligence before he. >> how would you know. >> how how don't you not know that the majority. >> so what if the individual, excuse me, one of the individuals that was fired was fired for text messages. as soon as mueller found out about those text messages, that person was removed. >> these people. >> integrity of the investigation. griff: all right. guys. we have got to leave it there we don't know when the bias starts. that's why congress is looking into it. and it's going to be an

interesting week ahead. richard fowler and lawrence jones. thanks very much. have a good rest of the sunday. all right. still ahead. senator al frankable under fire in announcing his resignation on the senate floor. >> i also think it gave some people false impression that i was admitting things that in fact i hadn't done. pete: what didonepete. griff: what did the american people think of al frank' speech? ♪ when food is good and clean and real, it's ok to crave.

democrats a d. let's get it strengthened and deal with it. they don't like when he goes too far. can you see that independent and democrat reaction there. eboni: absolutely. okay. let me ask you this though. when the democrats have a d for that, i understand that they don't like too much crassness on immigration, lee. how they would like the president to talk about legal immigration. >> there is not. at this point we are really at a gridlock. anything he says they will hear is he a racist and hear negative things. it's hard for them to say anything to get them to come over on his side. thing most important to watch are independents. independents throughout the cycle have really been right with republicans on immigration. we know he is having a tough time when you start to see that independent line soften. griff: you know, lee, i was reporting from washington all week on what i thought was a really big story the jerusalem announcement capital of israel. let's take a listen to that. >> we finally acknowledge the obvious. that jerusalem is israel's

capital. i'm also directing the state department to begin preparation to move the american embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem. while previous presidents have made this a major campaign promise, they failed to deliver. today, i am delivering. griff: so that red line was pretty high up there on that graph. >> you can see that the republicans really support this move. they gave it an a. independents a c. and democrats a d. i think there is a lot of concern by both independents and democrats on what this means for the stability of the area. they want to hear more about it. and they are concerned this was maybe it was a promise that he made but is it one that we need to do right now? big concerns there. pete: other news this week senator al franken, otherwise known as stuart smallie on "saturday night live" was on the senate floor resigning giving a speech. take a listen. >> i also think it gave some people the false impression

that i was admitting to doing things that in fact, i haven't done. some of the allegations against me are simply not true. others i remember very differently. pete: tough to grade any speech like this. >> overall republicans gave this an f. independents a d and democrats gave it a c. again, very tough speech. a lot of people said it was as good as it could have been been. this moment was one of the low points. listen, just take responsibility. you don't have to shirk it at this point. the rest of the speech struck the right tone. people are relieved he did resign. overall this was the low point of his message. people want to hear him own it. griff: lee carter, thank you very much. very fascinating to see how people respond. eboni: turning to our headlines this morning now cutting off communication refusing to meet with vice president mike pence ahead

coin. >> i know pete is buying. i don't have to answer that question. pete: let people know. >> you should buy if you want to gamble on a new and risky asset. that's really it you should not be buying bit coin if you are counting on it to pay for your retirement. this is speculative. it's a brand new space. it's an interesting technology that over time could really transform how financial transactions are done. but right now nobody knows where bit coin is going. and it's valuation is basically based on the fact that other people think it's going up. it's one of these things where i think it's going to go up because other people think it's going to go up. eboni: i hear you saying something i hold as investment truth literally but in this case i take you very literally at your word here. only gamble what can you afford to lose. >> exactly. i don't think this thing is going to fall to zero and stay there in the short-term, we don't know where the price is going to go. people are getting in because they are reading headlines that say bit coin is going up and see the

chance to make a few thousand bucks and i don't blame them for that this that could reverse itself very quickly. pete: people could get. in i bought bit coin here because it's a revolutionary concept that's challenging the idea of paper money or the gold standard saying digital currency can change the whole way we transact. you don't need a bank. it's person to person. could this change the entire financial industry? >> i think that's a smaller group than the people who just want to make a quick buck. you are right. one of the things that attracts people this s. this idea we don't have to have tractions go through central banks. this is something that can happen on a person to person basis. i think that's amazing. look around at world governments botch their currency. people can't money worth anything versus tomorrow. this system solves it. liberating. in the west probably not a big deal. i see around the global this kind of currency actually suspect planting currency in these less developed, less stable countries.

griff: quickly,aside from pete, who is buying this. >> it's a wide swath of people. i read an article the other day in the "wall street journal" grant got her grandson. a piece of a big coin. so this is the problem. all sorts of people getting in the game. kind of greater fool theory i'm going to buy bigger fool. that's gambling, folks. that's what so interesting. starting tonight you are able to bet against the price of bit coin. up to this point have you only been able to bet for it really. tonight can you start betting against it start selling future. let's see what happens to bit coin. i think you will see some selling. i don't think yoi think you wile price stabilize. pete: don't see a stable price that's what will allow become a currency. >> actually use it for transaction. pete: as long as it goes up before it stabilizes. >> i know you want to make a lot of money and i hear you. >> good to be here.

how is it different than my favorite crock pot? >> because it does more than that we test thousands of products every year. a lot of multipurpose ones don't necessarily do multiple things well. this one actually does. pressure cooker. steamer, crock pot, warmer. so it's not going to necessarily make the food taste better but it actually does those multiple things well. about $99 for seven in one cooker which is not too bad. griff: i know what this was and i wish it was on. >> coffee maker still a great holiday gift. it might may not seem like the sexiest. people love coffee makers. nice thing about the question.we tested over 100 cofe makers. this one ranks at the top $60 not bad for a coffee maker. griff: a few years ago i paid a lot more than that for myself. >> head phones are popular gift.

brian: we had one day of snow. beautiful football game to watch. i'm done. one day of snow i am done. winter is over. we are going surfing today. i have a surfing machine here. pete: inflatable mechanical surf board closest we will get on this snowy day in new york to california for griff jenkins. griff: exactly. eboni: i'm so eex sighted guys. day two. this is so fun. griff: surfing? eboni: we will talk about that later. pete: we have a lot to talk about. how big the president's crowd was. here is some visual you all saw it on friday night. the president gave a campaign rally in pensacola, florida on the border of alabama talked a lot about roy moore and his agenda and how far it's advanced in a year. well, a "the washington post" reporter decided to take issue with the size of the crowd. here is the photo that dave wilg who is a reporter for "the washington post" and president trump had said that the event was packed to the rafters. while dave wilg pushes this

photo out that clearly shows it's not packed to the rafters. look how empty it is. except one small mistake on that particular tweet which the president was quick to point out. the president quickly after dave wilg posted this griff tweeting this. >> president saying put out a phony photo of an empty arena hours before i arrived at the venue with thousands of people outside on their way. in real photos now shown as i spoke. packed house, many people unable to get. in demand apology and retraction from fake news. wapo. and my colleague dave responded. >> he actually did apologize. he said i apologize. i deleted the photo after @ dmartosko told me i'd got continue wrong. was confused by the image of you walking in in the bottom right corner. pete: said i never talked to dave wilg. used him as convenient excuse to say i got it

wrong. ultimately what this is about is jump-to-conclusion bias by the so-called mainstream media. not so-called at all they are lefties. when that photo was taken that dave wilg put on it was two hours before the event there was no one there because they were waiting in line to get. in the president pointing out once i was in there it was packed and there was still a line outside. why the reflexive desire to redemptively fact based of what actually happened. eboni: two things, a, better to be right than first. i totally agree with you. everybody in this business and otherwise really work on getting it right not just getting out the first tweet possible. here is the thick that's crazy to me, why this fast fascination about crowd size. this started with the inauguration. certainly with the president and sean spicer, then press secretary talking about the crowd size. i think you asked why such a need for this type of thing, i think everybody is trying to get at the achilles heel

of president trump. they kneel this crowd size issue is important to him. griff: the president may be overplaying his hand a little bit in calling for dave to be fired. i don't think he should be fired. he made a mistake and he apologized, okay? pete: how many times do they get to get it wrong? griff: what the president maybe perhaps should have put the focus on and you talked about getting it right. not first. it was foolish for dave to even send that photo out without a quick check because pensacola, florida, floribama as we talked about. eboni: you know they are coming out that. pete: didn't figure it out on elections night. griff: two were among the largest. i was there outside. there were upwards of 3,000, maybe 4,000 people outside the venue that couldn't get. in anyone that was on the campaign trail. >> eboni: this is common sense. griff: quick attempt at low hanging fruit to undermine the president.

eboni: whatever you think of the president, his policies or whatever, you cannot deny his ability to draw out massive crowds. that is something that he has proven time and time again. pete: you cannot deny the desire of the so-called mainstream media to try to make the president look bad. griff: it may not be. eboni: he does make it easy. pete: fair journalist, i get it appreciate that you cannot acknowledge that so many of your buddies at other networks are left wingers who their bias. griff: i don't know if you are right though. they just don't understand him. pete: great point. eboni: i'm going to go with pete here, griff. i think there are people that can just say now plainly i really have an wish this president. just like people had an wish george w. bush or nixon or reagan or obama. griff: counselor, i offer as evidence exhibit number 1, the "new york times" cover today. pete: evidence for eboni, actually. maggie haverman, on the cover of the failing "new

york times." failing on many levels. the president versus the presidency. so if you open it up, you are not necessarily reading at the top of the by line about roy moore, about the rally. about jerusalem, about the stock market. about all the things that have happened. you are reading quotes like this from the "new york times." despite all his bluster, he views himself less as a titan, dominating the world stage than a maligned outsider engaged in a struggle to be taken seriously. according to interviews with 60 advisors, associates and friends and members of congress. >> eboni: that article quoting nancy pelosi who also says this at first there was a thread of being an imposter that may have been in his mind. the bigger problem people need to understanding he was utterly unprepared for this. it would be like you or me going into a room and being asked to perform brain surgery. when you have a lack of knowledge as great as his, it can be bewildering. griff: they call his twitter

excaliber. this is the point that i was making early this morning and that is that this article on the heels of a booming economy, the tax reform looming, everything that's going on, they have devoted column after column, page after page. trying to paint a picture of a president who is doing things entirely different than they are used to. and it's driving them, apparently, it seems, nuts. pete: which they never would have for barack obama. being adjunct professor, a community organizer. a state senator and a couple of years in the senate makes you prepared to be president? >> eboni: is he also a lawyer. pete i love lawyers, there are lots of them out there. fine. that doesn't make you qualified to be president of the united states. eboni: did he win two elections. he was a president. he is as qualified as donald trump is qualified. i see it differently. pete: i get you see it differently. but the "new york times" didn't see it differently. eboni: do you know what is the greater issue.

they are in alignment with president obama's politics it's very similar. pete: great point. this guy ran a multibillion-dollar industry. he succeeded in business. he built things. he is as qualified as bomber was. eboni: absolutely. i don't disagree with that. pete: you are pointing out the bias, ache no, ma'aming the fact that these reporters who are leftist, right about this president to go after him in a way they never would with barack obama. we should talk about that and be real about that as opposed to pretending it's all the news fit to print. griff: we've know what the "new york times" thinks. what would hollywood think? hold on, they happen to be weighing in on another story i want to get to. that is hollywood is now getting involved in the roy moore race. coming to the aid of roy's opponent doug jones. we saw this movie before in a special election in georgia. it was safe republican seat once held by newt gingrich running against a young democrat named john owe solve. rosie o'donnell, jackson,.

eboni: also with hillary clinton at the end of her campaign. beyonce. griff: what happened in georgia. >> in both cases the celebrities didn't help and both candidates lost. pete: when is the last time you thought when what do celebrities think? i will vote the same way. [ralph, i don't know apparently is he a intrilgt. come on, bama, i recognize his picture now. >> for the sake of your kid's education, please vote joit d douglas jones. eboni: we had tammy bruce, a fox news contributor coming on and making a different point. here's the issue. i lived envelope los angeles for quite a while. celebrity culture is all the rage there. when you go to the kind of heart of america. when you go to alabama, north korea. tennessee, florida. these states. this just does not rest

resonate. a bit condescending, questioning of their values and moral integrity and i don't think it's going to resonate. griff: last time hollywood actor came to washington and made a lot of sense was ronald reagan in 1980. pete: clinton clint eastwood talked to an empty chair. eboni: that was quite unsuccessful. pete: another point. people don't want to be told by celebrities what to think it is condescending and off times in the recommendation, the language which doesn't feel con descend something people of alabama are going to vote for the person that they feel represents them even if they are imperfect choices. i wonder when the left or the will recognize say these things vote against you doesn't help your cause. eboni: it's not effective. now turn to our headlines and extreme weather. millions of people in the northeast are digging out this morning from the season's first big snow storm. the coastal areas receiving up to 6 inches.

black ice fell now creating treacherous travel conditions. the storms also stranding passengers at airports with thousands of flights delayed and cancelled. this is the same storm that blanketed parts of the south with nearly 200,000 customers losing power. and firefighters finally getting the you were hand on six massive wildfires carving paths of destruction in southern california. some now 50 percent contained or more. the thomas fire in ventura county though still raging. consuming 155,000 acres and counting. it's 15% contained but officials are still hopeful. governor jerry brown hoping these devastating fields possibly could be the new normal. >> facing a new reality in the state where fires threaten people's lives their property, neighborhoods. eboni: this week fires destroyed 800 buildings and forced more than 200,000 people out of their homes.

for months. actually years. and are excited that we're on the verge of peace ago tax bill that is going to create jobs. it's going to reduce taxes. it's going to result in more take home pay. bring those jobs home from overseas. we have seen some companies being bought out we want america to be the best place to grow and start that business. griff: congresswoman i have to ask you there is a "the washington post" headline today saying they lost focus on the middle class. did they in the g.o.p. lost focus did. they lose focus on the middle class? >> this plan is geared towards hard-working men and women. those that are going to work every day. making their mortgage. trying to save for retirement. trying to save for their college tuition. from the very beginning, our goal has been towards of the low, middle income americans. and as a percentage of tax cut, they are going to receive the highest portion of the tax cut in this bill. because we want them to have a step up. we want to help them have

that opportunity for a better life. in addition, we're also focusing on small businesses. it is small businesses in america that have paid the highest effective tax rate. and those are our job creators. pete: we only have 15 seconds left. put your hand on the crystal ball, does this pass by christmas? >> yes. we're on track and i'm excited about it and what it means for everyone in this country. griff: kathleen mcmorris rogerser merry christmas. >> merry christmas. griff: does this put a fork in the russia collusion narrative? pete: you know how some kids just cannot control themselves? >> everything is under control. no. monsters. pete: most kids, you are right. next guest has three tips every parent needs to hear to help raise their kids and somehow keep them under

trump jr. and donald trump getting wikileaks key so they could unlock all these secrets. only one big problem. they didn't get anything that hadn't already been release to the public. there is no indication they did anything with it. it was ridiculously wrong story. they had more egg on their face than you normally would see, you know, at an omelet contest. and they shamelessly continue to attack the president and his administration. here's the net result, and i think the best article i have seen on this comes from a person who was pretty far out on the left. but he is doggone fair and legitimate when he covers something. and that's green greenawalt. he takes the media down in an article that he has posted and just basically says when you continually get things wrong, and then you breathlessly report on it as if you have the biggest scoop since watergate. you destroy your credibility. the result is you are actually helping donald trump. and that's what they are

doing. they are delegitimizing the institution of journalism in a way that, you know, they blame donald trump for attacking the press. he simply is pointing out what they're doing. and it's really unfortunate, because we need a responsible and a thoroughly good brand of journalism going on. griff: governor, in little rock, arkansas, this is -- you mentioned watergate. the russia probe is the largest story of the year. perhaps as pete says, created by the media itself. they are getting that story wrong in so many cases. in little rock, arkansas, when people hear and read, this what are they making of it? >> i don't think the average american cares less because they don't trust the media. and every week when these kind of things happen, they trust it less. so, when donald trump comes out and he twitters -- i mean, tweets about the media, the fake news, increasingly people say, you know, he has got a point because every day somebody

has got to apologize. somebody is getting suspended like the unconscionable brian ross over at abc who is hideous in his reporting. when this stuff keeps happening, and they are proven to be wrong over and over, then they act like that it's donald trump's fault that they don't have any credibility. and people aren't taking him seriously. it's a great opportunity for journalism to take an inward look and say it's not our job to tell people what to think. it's our job to get true facts, verify them, give them objectively to the public. and let them make up their own minds about what that means. eboni: that's exactly right, governor. i want to pivot to another topic. that's late night host chelsea handler she, as i'm sure you saw made i thought a disgusting mocking video of your daughter press secretary sara sanders. i have very little crossover politically with your daughter. but i have to tell you i think she is doing

incredible job in a very difficult role. and i was sickened by this display of just antifeminism and anti-professionalism from chelsea handler. what's your reaction as both a politician and also fathe father? >> well, as a father, you never like to see this kind of stuff on your kids. but my daughter is an adult. she has lived in the political arena her whole life. she understands it she gets it she doesn't particularly like it. but, it doesn't get to her like i'm sure chelsea handler wishes it did. eboni: good to hear. >> my daughter is a very balanced person. she wakes up to a loving husband, three adorable children whose arms circle her neck, and it's something that gives her a balance that i feel sorry for chelsea handler. it's not something she understands. her vicious attacks are beginning to back fire on her. and, you know, is called a late night host. it's so late now she is not on anymore. eboni: internet shame from

governor huckabee. >> she is moving into the realm of keith olbermann,. eboni: just nasty. >> people can't take her seriously. honestly i feel sorry to her. i owe her an apology last week in talking about some other vicious things she said about my daughter on this program, she is almost my age. she needs to start mellowing out and then i realize she is nowhere near my age. she just looked like it. and i thought that's unfortunate. and i'm not saying that to be mean. no, seriously. i'm trying to be honest here. when people are bitter and they live their lives in anger and hostility to others, it shows. it takes away al countenance that people need. i'm not trying to be funny. honestly, people who are bitter and angry and lash out at others, and have no sense of personal balance and joy, it's unfortunate. and that's why i say with all sincerity, i feel sorry for her.

i don't envy her and i guarantee you my daughter doesn't. eboni: who you are on the inside does show on the outside. i agree with you governor huckabee. pete: thank you, governor. appreciate it? >> thanks a bunch, guys. pete: extreme weather now moving on. people in the northeast are digging out from the season's first big snow storm. big if you count a couple inches is big. i'm from minnesota. we are talking feet, not inch. some coastal areas receiving up to 6 inches. eboni: feels like a lot, right? black ice now creating treacherous traveling conditions for those storms. stranding thousands at airportsing with delayed and cancelled flights. griff: rick joins us with the forecast what have you got. >> not big. big across the south. record-breaking parts of georgia seeing up to 10 inches of snow and some areas seeing one the biggest storms they have ever seen. that's in the south. across the mid-atlantic toward the northeast this is what the last 24 hours

looked like. storm is gone. 4 to 5 inches of snow. today the cold air settles. in get above freezing in most cases. we will see a little bit of that snow begin to melt down across the south. get ready, a chilly start to your morning. because of that a lot of the roads are frozen over this morning. be very careful as you are headed out. guys, back to you. griff: thanks, rick. still ahead, a group of conservative students kicked out of campus coffee shop for wearing make america great again hats. >> i don't want people like you supporting this club. >> well then you should -- >> -- i don't want people like you supporting our club. i'm giving you 5 minutes. griff: mounting backlash against the school. that is coming up. eboni: guess what pope fran session now wants to change the lord's prayer because apparently it got lost in translation. what does father jonathan morris have to say about that? pete: i'm sincerely interested. father john with the definitive take on the

pete: when it comes to christmas, it may seem like this guy gets all the attention. >> santa! oh my god! santa's here? i know him. i know him. eboni: a new poll finds that many americans want to put jesus, yes, jesus, back into christmas. the poll asked if the holiday should be more about jesus or santa claus. and 68 percent said jesus with only 18% pulling for santa. griff: here to discuss is fox news religion contributor father jonathan morris. >> 68% for sure. pete: is this reaction fat culture has gone secular and people want to pull it back for the reason for the season. >> it has gone secular.

people say war on christmas is fake. this week at my parish we got email from a government office, local government office who wanted to use our parish hall, the church hall for a -- they are going to give gichts to all these kids. politician arrives gives out free gifts and takes picture. they sent a note to business manager we need to go over a few details. the last detail they wanted to go over was do you have a christmas tree in the church hall? if so, could you please remove it for us? i told my business manager absolutely not. you happen to be asking to use a church. but that's the political correctness that it makes a difference. it takes out the meaning of -- why are you giving gifts in december anyway? what's the purpose? griff: speaking of change

meanings. quickly, the pope wants to change the lord's prayer? what is that about? >> first of all, nobody can change the lord's prayer. what he said, he said. right? it's the lord's prayer. it's not my prayer, it's not your prayer. it's not the pope's prayer. what pope francis said this week is something very simple and makes a lot of sense. there is one part in the lord's prayer we used to saying lead us not into temptation. do we think that god tempts us? no. the devil tempts us. in the english translation that we use, it is a little bit confuse guilty. jesus said it not in english but arameric translated into greek and modern languages, in spanish it says. [speaking spanish] >> that means do not allow us to fall into. he is not changing what jesus said. he is just saying let's look at the translation. griff: can you still say it. >> can you say it, of

course. god is not going to lead you into temptation. griff: father jonathan morris. griff: jesus did not speak english? >> yes. pete: that's breaking news. great stuff. appreciate it. griff: thank you for joining us. don't take that tree down. pete: still ahead, all they want for christmas is government shut down. griff: wait is over, almost. star wars, the last jedi comes out in a few days. we have an exclusive behind the scenes look. that's coming up next and it's very cool. >> i'm going to need help. ♪ ♪ like the flame that burns the candle ♪ ♪ the candle feeds the flame ♪ topped steak & twisted potatoes at applebee's. now that's eatin' good in the neighborhood.

roller coaster ride. griff: i mentioned the president tweeting, it was coming out of his rally, another member of the media -- in this case, dave weigel of the wasp -- tweeting a photo. let's -- of the washington post. weigel posted the picture with the hall empty. eboni: this was supposedly the rally in florida. griff: yes, on friday night. and weigel making a very sarcastic dig at president trum. pete: so "packed to the rafters rafters." you all watched it on friday night. it was a packed house. you could see it on tv but yet dave weigel tweets this saying, you know, it was empty. well, president trump smacks back very quickly yesterday saying @daveweigel, at&twasp, real photos shown as i spoke, packed house, many people unable to get in, from the fake news

wasp. his tweet also included other photos that showed that in fact it was packed to the rafters. eboni: obviously very much so a packed house. an apology is what the president got, dave weigel tweeting out " "sure thing. i apologize. i deleted the photo after dmartosko told me i got it wrong wrong. what confused me was the image of you be walking in the bottom right corner. to me that's way too little, too late, because, first of all, common sense tells you no matter what you think about the president's policies or politics the man can pack an arena, okay? certainly one in florida in that panhandle area. so it would just seem to be wishful thinking to think it's gonna be an empty house for president tr.mp pete: the key point of what said no whether you think about his politics and his policy, if only so-called journalists could report no matter his policy or politics. eboni: you're ri.ht pete: individual bite has more than crept it and has become an agenda. dive weigel tweeted this with glee saying "look, look, look,

we got it." but he plays himself in the proc.ss pete: continue to play themselves and expose themselves in the process giving more fodder to expose the agenda again him. griff: weigel did apologize. i don't think he should be fired fired. pete: covered just as much as the initial report which is always the problem. the initial report gets the the narrative. the apology gets buried on a-13. griff: why is the president punching down? why does the president even bother to acknowledge this attempt by weigel to grab low-hanging fruit? pete: the president's always punching down 'cause he's the most powerful man on earth so any punch is a down punch but the reality is he's creating a narrative, he's exposing what no one else can expose. this is the guy who makes the news and is in the news. how many of us make the nueces and are in the news? we're either one or the other per se. eboni: should be. pete: he's both, so he can say this is what actually happened, this is what they report, here's the fake news. he's in such a unique position to critique this. it's a part of why where he is. eboni: question for both of you. is this gonna go anywhere. we're one year into this

presidency, right? let's presume it's gonna play out for the next three-year. is there going to be, what do you call it, compromise? is this gonna be a never-ending battle between the president of the united states and the white house and the media? griff: i've said this a couple of times. the russia story is one of the largest stories going on. now we have a case of several recent mistakes from cnn on wikileaks, on abc on the mike fiscal cliff testimony and some other things -- on the mike flynn testimony and other things things. while they are getting major facts wrong on the biggest story you least set the table for that whether there's truth or not there's gonna be a reckoning. pete: and you've called it the biggest story, understandably so but as i've said, too, the biggest story is the biggest story because the so-called mainstream media wants it to be the biggest story when you could cover so much else. eboni: would you say the president felt also if he doesn't make it he feeds it being a very big story because he tweets about russia as well, right? pete: of course because he's a counterpuncher who wants to fight back no matter what, feels

like he's innocent, uses his twitter feed to fight back against it. what do you think? friends at&t foxnews.com. steve bannon calls them literally the opposition party, lock, stock, and barrel with the democrats. do you believe that's true? is the media the opposition party? griff: i'm glad you mentioned bannon, and that is bannon is about to go back down to alabama alabama. president obviously at that rally to support roy moore. that's what it was really about, 'cause you're in florida, you're right there. and now, hollywood weighing in. hollywood weighing in on the roy moore coming to doug jones, moore's opponent's defense, we saw this movie before in georgia when samuel l. jackson went down for the democrat, didn't work out, and now we've got tweets coming in from hollywood folks. we've got mark gruffalo completing "come on, alabama. you've got good in you." so mark gruffalo makes a great

rom .om eboni: "for the sake of your kids' education please vote at douglas jones." i'm obviously want a roy moore supporter but that whole, like, do it for the kids feels a little cheeky. pete: don't both sides do it for the kids? eboni: yeah, do everything for the kids, right? pete: this is the headline from politico: "why democrats win even if they lose in alabama." so according to the politico, even when the democrats lose, they win! eboni: that's convenient. that's very convenient, right, to frame it that way on the front end knowing, i mean, by all i think estimates, i think roy moore's definitely gonna pull this out. pete: the polls indicate that he will. the momentum is in his direction direction. trump carried the state substantially. a lot of controversy early on. ultimately republicans have coalesced from it. griff: i don't think hollywood has a full grasp of how much they're actually helping roy moore by getting involved, because turning off the alabama voters as was the case in fact

in georgia they said, you know, this young guy, jon ossoff wins even if he loses 'cause he came so close. but you know what? horseshoes and hand grenades is where close only counts. in politics -- eboni: does not count. pete: email us at friends@foxnews.com. has there ever been a celebrity that you've heard from that changed your vote? like "i saw an internet video from a person that plays another person on tv as an actor, and i thought, i want their ideology in my brain." let us know. friends@foxnews..om eboni: speaking of celebrities and hollywood, chelsea handler. she went on this viral rampage against press secretary sarah palin sarah. take a look at this. >> hey, y'all, it's me, sarah palin sarah. my face say big, fat -- this is a foundation and just like the foundation of america, it's republicans, it's strong, and it's white. i used to not know what foundation was, but our great president was kind enough to take me to a sephora and he said

to this employee,, "hey, you see that fella right here? make 'em a woman." blush is very accessible. you can get this at the drugstore right next to the gun store where you can pick up your guns because it is your american right. i know what you guys were thinking. she's only 35. i get it i got my dad's old fac. pete: so this is a video that aired on the chelsea handler's show which appears on netflix. i've never seen it, didn't know about it but apparently it's out there. eboni: i thought that part, listen, you can make fun of sarah palin sarah, chelsea handler's a comedienne, a public figure, get that, but the digging of her looks, the attacking of this woman's aesthetic i thought was but you asked, but to attack her father, governor mike huckabee. pete: in this metoo movement, you want to support women. is this not homeopathy to do something? eboni: i can't cherry-pick and say i'm for you on sexual

harassment but i'm gonna annihilate you on the way you do your job, i don't like what you do. griff: we had governor huckabee on, sarah's father. >> as a father you never like to see this kind of stuff on your kids. my daughter's an adult. she's lived in the political arena her whole life, she understands it, she gets it. particularly like it, but it doesn't get to her like i'm sorry chelsea handler wishes it did. i feel sorry for chelsea handler handler. people who are bitter and angry and lash out at others and have no sense of personal balance and joy, it's unfortunate. and that's why i say, with all sin sit there, i feel sorry for her. i don't envy her and i guarantee you my daughter does.'t pete: that was governor huckabee huckabee's take. we asked you for your take on this and your emails have been pouring in, including an email from janet. and she wrote this: "how on earth can the dems be the party of women when they ridicule a woman for her appearance?" tat hypocrisy. eboni: we have this tweet who

says you cannot claim to champion women's rights and simultaneously mock a successful woman's looks simply because you disagree politically." and i think she's absolutely right. that's the point. if we're going to have try to have this moment as women as you point out pete and griff, we have to be consistent on the message of empowerment across the aisle and across belief syst.ms pete: also how about the double standard? you look at sarah palin sarah or a kellyanne conway, who was the first female to run a winning presidential campaign. eboni: which she did not get enough credit. pete: would they not all be on the cover of vogue if this was a democratic administration? any sort of liberal magazine. the celebration you get for democrats vis-a-vis republicans who are demonized for their political views as opposed to held up for the fact that they're successful women. eboni: i think that's true and i think that's something we need to work on as women, i'm gonna own that and say "you know what? you don't have to -- just because you're right, there are more left-leaning liberal ideal idealized people in media. why in the world are we ostracizing women that are successful in the conservative

movement? that is something we should be embracing, rallying behind and owning as a part of our collective success. pete: well said. griff: speaking of women, coming up, skier lindsey vonn says she isn't representing the president of the united states when she competes the winter olympics. this morning the white house responding. pete: and remember when nancy pelosi said this about republican tax plan. >> the debate on heck is like death. this is amending. pete: we're all gonna die. the voters agree. we've got the brand-new dial coming up lee carter next. ♪ it's the end of the world the as we know it.

it a little bit, but the kids don't know about the fact that you've done a little bit of something for them. >> yeah, i put my own little twist on it and i fully decorated your home, which i guess is like a birthday present to you as well, because -- pete: there we've got some images. is this their home right there? >> yes. pete: when did you do this and what have you done? >> so we drove through. qoiio: yesterday and decorated their home last night. pete: where is your home? >> fort hamilton right in brooklyn. pete: what is the totality -- you invaded their home with the christmas spirit, and what all did you do? >> so christmas decor really helped me out. they hooked me up with some red, white, and blue servicemen and service woman themes christmas decorations so we showed up there, kind of designed it on the spot, planned it, set it.up pete: so that's your house.

didn't look like that when you left, did it? >> no, it did not. it's actually the first time i'm seeing it at night because the weather was so bad, i didn't even see that picture 'til just now . pete: major, what does that mean to you? you spend so much time abroad, you're serving our country, you see folks back here willing to recognize that service and honor it? >> it's huge. because -- and as you know, pete we don't do it for ourselves. we do it for all the other people, the people that don't have to, the people that don't want to, the people that hate us but we do it because it's important to us, and we really love what the country stands for for. and when you see somebody that gives some time out of their schedules to take care of a military family, it's huge. pete: rachel, what's it going to mean to you to walk in your home knowing someone appreciates you that much? >> it really feels good to me because i don't know anything about military, but i slowly learned a lot from my friends and of course my husband, and it's kind of difficult to me, but, you know what? i can do.it pete: that's an amazing spirit.

i don't know much about the military either but i know an army family for someone to be wearing an air force shirt is aggressive. what have we got here? >> none of them are going into the army, they're all going into every other service, not the army. pete: once you know the secret, say, hey, check something else out too. thank you for your service, for yours and for what you do to allow your father and your father to serve this great country. we appreciate it. enjoy your home. >> thank you. pete: thank you for sneaking into the middle of the night and making christmas happen. still ahead. a group of conservative students kicked off of their campus coffee shop for wearing make america great again hats. >> i don't want people like you supporting this club. >> well, then you should be -- >> no one here wants people like you supporting our club. i'm giving you five minu.es pete: people like them and people like you. the mounting backlash against the school just ahead. and all they want for christmas is a government shutdown! the resistance may hold the government hostage over dreamers

inside, and, you know, there's no country like our country, but we have a love sickness in some of our institutions, and we're working very hard. we've got a lot of them straightened out. pete: that was president trump on friday in pensacola. and right now we're going to bring in jason chaffetz, fox news contributor, former utah g.o.p. congressman and former chairman of the oversight and government committee in the house. congressman, thanks for joining us this morning. that's the president this week litigating publicly and straight to the american people his feeling about a rigged system. this week on capitol hill, deputy a.g. rod rosenstein is going to testify about the russia investigation before that house judiciary committee. given what we've learned about mueller's team ties, is there a fair investigation actually going on, and what could we learn from this testimony? >> well, he is the one in charge charge. i used to actually be on that committee, and i think you're going to see from jim jordan and trey gowdy and john radcliffe and a host of other people some

very direct questions, not only about what mueller and his team are doing but maybe what they're not doing. are they looking at the uranium one deal? are they going to potentially introduce a special counsel? because he's the one that appointed mueller. is he going to appoint somebody else to also maybe go in to look at the other things that hillary clinton was doing in and i'm telling you, if the answer isn't an affirmative one, i think you're going to see a lot of members in the house really get upset and really question whether or not this department of justice has a blindfold on it much the way it's supposed to, that lady justice, does she have a blindfold on? griff: so, congressman, he's the real question, and that is, will rosenstein actually answer the questions? the scrutiny on the impartiality is undeniable on this team. you have sat in those hearings time and time again when the witness simply gives you a word salad, double washington speak

and gets out of it. is rosenstein going to add to the lack, the erosion of confidence of the american people in their institutions, or is he going to just babble? >> well, bob goodlatte is the chairman of the committee. he can continue to direct the witness in order to answer the questions. this is the committee of prime jurisdiction. they all have security clearances. there's no reason why you can't do that. nobody wants to impede an ongoing investigation, but at the same time there are a lot of direct questions that can be asked, and i'm sure, again, that those members will ask those questions. and the other thing they're also going to press him on is turning over the documents to the house intelligence committee in a public forum like this, are they going to cooperate and provide witnesses, are they going to provide the documents? because right now the deep state over in the department of justice is giving congress a big old stiff arm, and you have devin nunes and trey gowdy and others saying, "i can't do this

investigation and oversee the department of justice as the check and balance unless you actually provide the documents." thus far they haven't been doing it . eboni: congressman, let me ask you this on a different kind of issue. it seems what some people what they want for christmas is this government shutdown. certain rank-and-file the democrats are really forcing a movement to shut down the government going into the holiday season over the issue of daca and the dreamers. president trump saying america does not need a republican shutdown. congressman, you have been a part of the republican party when they were part of a government shutdown or perceived that way. what do you think the costs are for the dems here? >> i totally disagree, totally. we'll have another conversation that we participated in any sort of government shutdown, but that's another topic. look, i was elected at the same time at barack obama -- eboni: that perception was out there. >> it doesn't mean it was true. eboni: no, no, i'm conceding that, i'm conceding that. but i'm saying the political price tag that many in the g.o.p. felt that that cost was

substantial. >> yeah, i don't believe in my district. i won by record numbers. so -- but nevertheless, look, the democrats -- again, i was on the house judiciary committee. i was on the immigration subcommittee. when the democrats have the house and senate and the presidency, they didn't even hold a hearing on this. literally in two years they dealt nothing with immigration. the only person they brought before the committee was stephen colbert. honest to goodness that is the way it went down and so for them now to say, oh, this is the most important, and it says a lot about the democrats. they're willing to shut down the government because they're going to protect people that aren't even americans. eboni: but do you think -- i don't think that they are. pete: second floor are. so does it not portray priorities? eboni: they will absolutely not shut down the government for that. pete: no, our priority is illegals who were brought here of their -- not of their accord, we understand that, but our priorities, do we shut it down

or not over illegals vis-a-vis doesn't it support the bifurcation of the narrative the president has that you've got the forgotten men and women, the citizens of america versus democrats who are advocating for illegals? eboni: and i understand that, pete, but i'm saying to the congressman talking about the shutdown issue exclusively, right? and the truth is everybody knows it on this panel and you congressman, that they are certainly not going to shut down the government over this issue because the political consequences are too high. >> i gotta believe that, look, the president has said that he's going to deal with this in a compassionate way. he is waiting for congress to take some definitive action. there are some on the republican side of the party that also want to inject this into the funding bill that has to happen by the 22nd. i see no pathway for them to actually deal with this immigration daca issue in the funding bill going on to the 22nd. but i think in the first quarter the president really does want to see a congressional solution to this. i do think that congress has to do two things with the funding

bill. 1, deal with the sanctuary cities. they lost the lawsuit. and as the president insist, i think they can get language in there to fix that and the second thing they have to do is fund the wall. it's core to what the president campaigned on, it's a modest amount of money in a $4 trillion budget, the president and the republicans should build the wall. when they do that, they can also later deal with these other issues. griff: congressman chaffetz, thank you very much, and merry christmas to you. >> merry christmas. thank you. griff: president trump is busy working on his agenda, including tax reform and immigration. but the new york times doesn't want to talk about that. they'd rather focus on what he watches on tv. eboni: and conservative students are standing up to their classmates for protecting the flag. what happened? well, they were actually punished for it. those students are now suing the district and one of them joins us on the couch next. ♪ ♪ spread a little love my-y way ♪ ♪ spread a little something to remember ♪

eboni: the school says there is no quote safe space and the incident is under investigat.on pete: conservative students at the dina high school in minnesota are suing their school district over free speech rights rights. last month, some students sat in protest during the playing of taps and the national anthem in a veterans day assembly at the school. griff: a few young conservative club members criticized the protesters on social media and students say when the principal found out, he shut the club down but is that evidence of a double standard of free speech here? eboni: joining us with more is one of the students involved in that lawsuit, president of the young conservatives club, nick spate and his attorney, eric kar kardow. thanks both for being here with us. >> thank you. >> thank you for having us. pete: nick break this down for us a little bit. so you saw -- your club saw some kids kneeling, set aside the rationale for the kneeling, kneeling during the national anthem and there was some criticism from your club about it online. the response was to shut you

down. why shut the club down as opposed to maybe critique the comments of some students who may have gone too far? >> well, many of us i believe that it was due to the fact that principal veton did not want this image of young conservatives being racist on his -- the school. so ultimately that's what i think is why we got shut down. pete: yeah, but nick even if some kids made racist comments which of course is unacceptable, you wouldn't concede that young conservatives are racist writ large. so why would the whole club get shut down? >> that's a good question. i admitted to principal veton what was said was not okay. he said he knew that and i really do not understand why we were shut down. >> the reason that president bet beton shut the club done was given the student newspaper was that the young conservative club

had disrespected the flag protesters and the school policy indicates absolute respect is required for flag protesters and so the young conservative club was disciplined because the club had violated the policy respecting flag protesters. for years the club had taken stands for the flag, including restoring flags to the classrooms when they were taken out and having a usa day during spirit week. and they were told that like on the usa day issue that the flag -- that flag days like that were too red, white, and blue. eboni: i think it's important also that we do say that we reached out and got a statement from the school. they said edina public schools respects and adheres to state statute and federal law in regard to the free speech rights of all students and staff and welcomes opportunities for ongoing discourse and respectful debate on topics of importance to our stakeholders. let me ask you a quick question, though, nick. i agree with pete's point that certainly the entire conservatives club at large doesn't need to be deemed,

according to the statements of one or two people, but was there any discipline or action taken by the club to anybody that made comments that were out of line? >> are you talking about the young conservatives -- eboni: yes. >> -- who made the -- yes. they were kicked out of the club because we do not allow that in our club at all, is never okay for racism. and they were also suspended by the school. pete: so, nick. hold on. just unpack this for me. so there's no room for disrespect against anthem protesters, but there is room for disrespect against the anthem? >> yes. pete: okay. i don't get that. it's free speech is either free speech. why do you get to choose one way or the other? we unfortunately have to let you go, nick -- eboni: we can talk about this at length. pete: tv we get limited amount of time. nick spaded, eric kardow, edina public schools.

>> eboni: it's great to be here guys. >> griff: but there is news . let's get to it. >> pete: we covered yesterday the rally that the president had on friday in pensacola, florida with a packed house he talked about it being full to the raft ers. well one member of here is some video of it right here one member of the so-called mainstream media had a different take and tweeted same as dave wi gel and works for the washington post and quoted it as packed to the rafters and then he linked to a photo it didn't look so packed and looked like the arena was empty except there was one small mistake, eboni with that particular photo >> eboni: a big one this was taken several hours than the president's actual arrival into the arena and of course we know the place really was packed to the rafters as the president said because again as i said whatever you think of donald trump, his policies his politics what have you this is a person that has shown us over and over again he can pack these arenas to the rim. >> griff: but did you know as a good reporter should do, dave wi

gel apologized. >> pete: a good reporter shouldn't do it in the first place. >> griff: this is true. we're going to debate that but i'd like to show just the quick tweet if we have it and that is him saying look, i apologize, here with go, sure thing. i apologize, i debated-- >> eboni: deleted the photo. >> griff: here is the bigger point and that is this. we are in this period where there is a major story out there , the russia pro, and you have several mistakes being made by cnn and wikileaks by abc and the mike flynn thing and other things so the distrust of the american people in the erosion of the trust in our institutions particularly when it comes to legal ones is being eroded and this doesn't in any way help-- >> pete: of course they've eroded it themselves through a lot of fake news and the president pointed out with his twitter feed. >> eboni: but why to that point is the president actively engaging in this war with the

media, certainly as you say steve bannon calling them the opposition party, well to give us some answers we'll bring in david bossie, the former deputy campaign manager for donald trump and the fox news contributor and the co-author of let trump be trump. thanks so much for being with us >> thanks for having me this morning. >> pete: so talk to us the continued litigation of the fake news media and its utility? >> look, you guys were just laying it out perfectly. this president is engaged and talking directly to the american people because of the fake news divisions that we just look, just this week we've seen four now with the dave wigel photograph, four major incidents by abc news, by cnn, by most of the wire networks, and then now the washington post delivering fake news, lies about this president whether it's abc lying about the president, whether it's cnn lying about donald trump jr. , it is

outrageous and the president uses his pulpit to make sure that the support, his supporters and that all americans understand they're not being honest. they're not trustworthy and so look, i want the media to do a good job if and so does the president. if they did a good job he wouldn't be engaged with them. >> griff: so david does this pretty much stick the fork in the russia collusion story? i mean, is this finally saying do you know what? it's over. >> well i certainly hope so. look this investigation, griff has been going on for 18 months, 18 months and not one piece of evidence of russian collusion or cooperation with our campaign, and i was there. i never saw it. i never heard about it. there's just no evidence and if there was, we know that the left within the mueller probe, we know the left within the house of representatives and the u.s. senate who are just filled

with leaks would have put it out there. there's just no question if there was evidence and so i hope this finally puts this to bed. >> pete: david when i opened up my new york times, failing, i saw a photo here. it would otherwise be known as a bad photo because you can't see his face but it's a shadowy photo of the president calling it the president versus the presidency not just the facts that are reported it's the emphasis of the reporting and the narrative that they try to drive but this is a guy just watching tv eating random food tweeting talking he's out of control and this is what the new york times said from nancy pelosi in that article, so first there was a threat of being an imposture that may have been in his mind and the bigger problem thing people need to understand is he was utterly unprepared for this. it would be like if you or me going into a room and being asked to perform brain surgery when you have a lack of knowledge as great as his, the assumption there is would they have written an article like that about a community organizer or a lawyer, state senator who became president? >> that's shameful. nancy pelosi is a stooge, and

when you say something like that just that is so benign, for shear political purposes to try and pile on the narrative of the fake news divisions of the new york times and others, it is, it's just preposterous and it's one of the reasons why donald trump got elected in the first place. he is not a career politician. he is a change agent that came to washington to fix nancy pelosi's broken status quo if you will and so nancy, under nancy pelosi and barack obama, the stagnant economy, 1.2, 1.4% growth and under president trump , you have 3.3, over 3% for the last two quarters, you have an economy that is expanding in

droves. jobs numbers like we've never seen 2.2 million new jobs, just in the last year alone, and the economy through his shear force of his will on one hand and his de regulatory pen in the other and now, we have tax reform that is very close, getting to the president's desk hopefully within days if not a week or so and then we're going to have that boost to our economy that we need. that's what this president's about. he doesn't care what nancy pelosi-- >> eboni: but let me ask you this though. so when you are talking about the economy certainly everybody is thrilled that american economy is doing so well and certainly thriving most everybody can see that with their investments, their portfolios, their 401 (k) and i would submit that president barack obama did stabilize a very unfortunate and scary economic picture back in 2008 but either way, what we know is things look good right now, right? but here is my question. nancy pelosi, what pete read there we expect that of nancy pelosi. that's what we know her to be but when it comes to the new york times and when it comes to these institutions that many

americans still look towards to give them some type of balance, some type of fuller picture, what is your statement then, dave today new york times of these other publications that in my view are sacrificing their very credibility just to go after this president, right or wrong, actually, i'm not going to litigate that. i'm just speaking to the credibility. >> all the fake news that's fit to print. that is exactly what the new york times has become. that's now what the washington post did with that photograph. this is just a continuation of this problem and let me just say one thing about back to barack obama. he more than doubled our national debt. he went from 10 trillion to $20 trillion in eight years and it took over 220 years to get to 10 trillion and i would submit that george bush didn't help us at all with the bail out at the end there but we had a trillion dollars at the end but that is such a disaster for our economy.

it's weighing on us the only way out of this is donald trump's growth, hope growth and opportunity theory-- >> eboni: i'm not debating that, dave, the lessening of these regulations having a tremendous impact a positive impact, certainly saying that i think certainly he was positioned to come in and make those. >> pete: david you talked about the economy and you did too as well eboni, and the president was up tweeting earlier about the economy and he said getting closer and closer to the tax cut , house and senate working very hard and the end result will not only be important but special. he also talked about the record high in the market unemployment now at 17 year low, companies are coming back into the usa really good news much more to come. the president also recording we're hearing this morning robocalls for roy moore. how much of that special election is about making sure you have the votes you need to pass tax reform? >> david: well i think it's 100 %, about what is going to happen on tuesday and i think the people of alabama and no one else is going to make the

decisions to who reps then, but and then do you know what if the senate wants to take up an issue with roy moore if he wins and when he wins-- >> eboni: they did say david and correct me if i'm wrong he will absolutely go before an ethics investigation upon election if he would. >> david: yeah and i think that's their right as the senate body. they can do whatever they want when he gets here but they have to let the people of alabama speak and i think that the folks in alabama want somebody to go to washington to help this president get his agenda through that's really what this election is about. it's about a leftist who is on the democrat side, whose going to come here and obstruct everything this president wants versus quite simply somebody whose going to agree with the president's agenda, a pro growth , pro national security piece through strength agenda that this president has and i think that we're going to see a result for roy moore on tuesday. >> griff: really quickly let me ask you a question going back to

the new york times article now assuming the president gets tax reform done and he signs it on christmas eve if they get it how much do these new york times articles where it's getting painted as chance the gardner matter? does the president care, does it matter? or is he just ignoring it at this point? >> no he doesn't care what the media says. he continues to do this job for all americans for the american people, every day, getting this economy back. that's his number one issue and that's what he campaigned on and that's what we talk about in our booklet trump be trump. >> pete: thank you for joining us. >> eboni: thank you. >> pete: coming up a major victory in the war against isis. iraq declaring itself "totally liberated." but is it really? lieutenant colonel oliver north. >> eboni: plus bonanza is joining the markets and what you should already buy and risk your cash we'll find out more just stay tuned.

>> griff: welcome back iraq totally liberated from isis this weekend a senior iraqi military commander announcing the end of this longview plant war claiming there are american-backed troops now control the syrian border. so what does this mean for our fight against terror joining us now fox news military analyst, and a guy i know well, i spent time with him in iraq lieutenant colonel oliver north. good morning. >> good to see you griffin fact we spent a lot of time together in iraq probably more time than we did with our families. >> griff: that's right, so this news what does this announcement mean? >> you know, griff, i look at it as kind of a rerun of the good, the bad and the ugly. the good news is isis is no lingerie military force capable of holding territory, anywhere in the region. they kicked out of syria, finished in iraq, they're not capable of holding territory, but the bad news is that radical islam it's ideology is still a very powerful force for murder on a global scale from the

philippines, the islamist ghetto of west europe, egypt as we saw in that mosque attack and the ugly part of it is the iatolas, and we saw the islamic revolutionary guard corps, as they moved into a place they were never supposed to be and that's mosul. >> griff: in in fact colonel we actually have that tape. i shot it you were doing the talking let me just roll the tape and show the viewers what we witnessed. >> while we were waiting to go through this checkpoint a convoy showed up this long convoy of what appear to be mostly commercial vehicles. in fact, this is one of the provisional military units, a she it malitia headed by iran and the islamic revolutionary guard and the force. >> griff: now tell our viewers exactly who these guys are and why this matters in the future of iraq. >> well what they're trying to do in iraq and i say by they i'm

talking about iran. the islamic revolutionary guard and the force of their special operations guys that was a force supported iran and hesbolla and malitia that we saw and you very boldly by the way just told our listeners now, griff could not show his camera and we shot a lot of that ontoing more than iphones turned out to be pretty good but the reality is they tried to cover it up. they tried to hide that and what iran is doing is disguising their support for asad by constructing a if you well a land bridge across iraq to keep him supplied. hesbolla is their agent and hesbolla is going to lead the attack against israel and us because they think that the idea of a u.s. embassy in downtown jerusalem is a bad thing. it is not good to have them working against us. it's certainly not good to have the islamic revolutionary guard corps helping build nuclear weapons in north korea.

>> griff: colonel i want to ask if you noticed in the statement by the iraqi prime minister did you see any special thanks for the u.s. troops for their advice and assist backing that they gave us there? >> not a bit. in fact you and i saw this again just a year ago. every effort is being made by the organizations and their politics in baghdad to make sure that the islam it's revolutionary guard corps has the access that they need to keep supporting asad and hesbolla against israel. >> griff: colonel north thank you very much for joining us and i'm sorry navy didn't come through. we tried buddy. i was going to wear my n sweater but i couldn't put it on. >> griff: thank you colonel. coming up, skier lindsay vaughn says she isn't representing the president of the united states when she competes at the winter olympics this morning the white house is responding. and this former navy seal is helping our heros, one cup of

>> griff: now look maria's stock market set to kickoff a very busy week and tax reform on the agenda. what can we expect? >> maria: well it's going to be a big week you guys this is the final week going into the christmas holiday, and the senate and the house are trying to get this on the president's desk by christmas so the conference committee continues this week they're working out their differences in terms of the differences between the house and the senate plan. i would expect a really big week we're coming off a week where we just saw great economic data with unemployment numbers coming out on friday which were better-than-expected seeing a rip roaring economy, the chairman of the ubs last week said to me we're moving into a period where this is as good as it gets $6 trillion in market value gained since the election and two straight quarters of 3% growth and a tax plan that is expected to move the needle on economic growth. >> griff: so no one thought 3% was going to happen. that was done through regulatory reform. is it your sense then that if the tax goes through and that's

january 1 would pretty much kick in it could go even as high as 4 %? >> maria: i do and a lot of economists today are indicating we should see 4% global growth in 2018 because it's not just the u.s.. obviously the rest of the world does well when it's largest player, the united states, is surging and we are seeing that kind of view answer it right now , but the businessman agers are opening up their purse strings investing in their businesses looking for growth. >> pete: every morning on mornings with maria you get a peak at the futures which gives you an indication where the stock market is going that day. well bitcoin which you've talked a bit about has been a standalone for a while but has a futures market starting today. how will that change because bitcoin is between 14,000 per bitcoin to almost 19,000. what is the futures market mean? >> maria: it's incredible. the futures market i think will trigger more liquidity and that's a positive because you're going to have more people trading it, more interest in bitcoin. look, i'm not ready to go out there and say bitcoins going to be long lasting and the place

that you want to be buying because there were real questions about this but it's hard to call it a fraud now after it soared so much. i think this is an indication what's going on with bitcoin that people are willing to take more risk. you've got an economy and environment right now where there is a willingness to spend money and to put out new ideas, so we'll see if it's actually bitcoin that survives or another digital currency but the blockchain technology, the underlying technology of bitcoin is obviously viable and so i don't know if it will be bitcoin or another digital currency that will win but it's hard to bet against it after what's taken place. >> eboni: maria if everything sounds so incredibly optimistic and certainly as you say a climate where taking these types of economic risks feels more comfortable than it has in years past how long do you foresee it being this way? say that scary word nobody wants to hear the bubble effect. >> maria: yeah, well on bitcoin we're going to have on monday morning on fox business on mornings with maria we'll have

on the winkle boss twins and they bet so much on bitcoin and they think there's another 10-20 times value there as far as this market i don't know that this is necessarily a bubble. look, i was around in the 90s when we were looking at a bubble and actually seeing stock prices go up because of the number of hits to a website. that's not what this is right now. we reached out 24,000 on real fundamentals. you've got earnings growth expected to be up in the double-digits next year, you've got an economy growing 3% expected to grow 4% and a tax plan that's on the eve of passage that may very well move the needle even further for a lot of industries that haven't moved in a while. >> griff: that's what you got on monday but what about today? >> maria: today we're talking with the house majority leader kevin mccarthy and get a status check in terms of where this plan is. he is leading that conference trying to coming to with the senate and see what stays in the final bill. he's going to give us a status check. >> pete: one of the guys he's trying to pull in is peter king. >> maria: that's right we have

peter king on the programmed to. king was a no vote on the tax plan because of the state and local tax deduction elimination so we'll see if there's any wiggle room what pete king does in the final bill. >> eboni: lots of new yorker constituents are concerned about that particular aspect of it. >> maria: exactly. >> pete: and it will be interesting to find out too whether you can buy the arbynato r with bitcoin. >> maria: [laughter] >> griff: he's thinking bitcoin. >> pete: while sipping a donuts beer at the same time. >> maria: you can't get away from bad eating like you don't have a shot. >> pete: your right. thank you, maria. >> griff: thank you. >> maria: see you in a few minutes. >> pete: we've been waiting all morning, up next it's time to hang 10. we found out griff loves to surf >> eboni: apparently he's making us surf too so he will put his and ours skills to the test on the plaza. oh, my goodness, going to be cold. ♪ fun fun fun
