twitter was on the case. one social media user said by throwing a western theme party, hart was celebrating genocide, white supremacy and slavery. he doesn't look like a white supremacist but neither does kanye west and twitter calls him one too. we'll be back tomorrow, 8:00 p.m., the show that's the enemy of lying and pugness. sean hannity right now. >> sean: as always, welcome to hannity. this is a fox news alert. polls are closed across mississippi. we are currently monitoring the results out of what will be the last senate seat to be decided. we hope to make that call during this hour. we hope you stay tuned. big news as it relates to the mueller witch hunt. we are going to show you how two individuals are literally standing up to mueller's coercion and what we call lie tactics. we'll expose a fake story accusing paul manafort of having secret meetings with julian assange. nothing more than a conspiracy

theory and peek russia collusion hysteria at its worse. the reporting has been atrocious. we have an important update on an actual scandal surrounding this sketchy clinton foundation. we are going to bring you the very latest from the crisis at our southern border. we will expose some of the almost unbelievable hypocrisy from america's left. senator lindsey graham is here to weigh in on that. the department of homeland security, secretary nielsen, she will join us tonight. sit tight, buckle up. glad you are with us. we begin our breaking news opening monologue. tonight, it appears another so-called russian bombshell has fallen completely flat. the guardian today reported without any evidence that former trump campaign manager, paul manafort and wikileaks founder, julian assange met multiple between 2013 and 2016 at the

ecuadorian embassy in london. paul manafort is strongly denying all of that firing back in a powerful statement that reads, this story is totally false, deliberately libellous. i have never met julian assange or anyone connected to him. i have never been contacted by anyone connected to wikileaks directly or indirectly. i have never reached out to assange or wikileaks on any matter. manafort is vowing to pursue all legal options against that paper. wikileaks are going further tonight. they tweeted, quote, willing to bet "the guardian" $1 million and its editor's head that manafort never met assange. assange too rightly so moving ahead on possible legal action in addition to being absolutely rebuffed by both parties involved, what's fascinating is "the guardian's" sorry filled with serious flaws and no meetings and none on the record.

the ecuadorian embassy in london is one of the most surveilled and secured buildings in the world. i know. i went there. i interviewed julian assange in january of 2017. visitors are monitored, photographed, videotaped by multiple governments. now, "the guardian" is being accused of quietly stealth editing the story. the paper altered their own headlines adding words sources say. they didn't have that in beginning and they softened key elements of the language hours after receiving the backlash. she jump on anything and everything russia except for hillary's phoney dossier. president trump had sharp words for robert mueller. the phoney witch hunt continues but mueller and his gang of angry democrats are only looking at one side, not the other. wait until it comes out how horribly and viciously they are

treating people, lying for them refusing to lie. mueller is a conflicted prosecutor gone rogue. trump continued, the fake news media builds bob mueller up as a saint when in actuality, he is the exact opposite. he is doing tremendous damage to our criminal justice system where he is only looking at one side, not the other. look at their past and where they come from. look at this, $30 million. the pitch hunt continues. they have nothing but ruined lives. where is the server? meaning hillary's server. let these terrible people go back to the clinton foundation and the justice department. still, president trump is letting the process play out. he told "the washington post" tonight he has no intention of stopping the investigation. the president's concerns are being echoed by legal scholars like alan dershowitz, who warned today about what mueller's true

motives really are. let's take a look. >> mueller is not going to produce a neutral report. he is not going to be fair. he is going to produce what he believes is going to be a devastating attack. he is going to put together everything. he is going to use information from manafort and others without necessarily disclosing that there they are liars. the president's team has to be rea ready. >> this is what i have been saying from the get-go. the classic mueller, andrew weissman, pitbull tactics, using threats, coercion to get people to what we call test the lie. in other words, tell us what we want to hear. we are going to go easy on you. if you don't tell us what we want to hear, you might spend the rest of your life in jail. look what's happening. this is fascinating. paul manafort and jerome corsi, they are now taking a stand, refusing to cooperate and go

along with the test the lie scheme. they are not willing to tell a story that they want told. even both of them, elderly men, risking life in prison. they could say exactly what these rogue prosecutors want to save themselves. clearly, their conscious refuses to allow them to lie. cnn reporting that robert mueller has his hands on 2016 e-mail communications between corsi and roger stone, supposedly showing some attempt from stone to seek information from wikileaks. we'll see how this plays out as mueller continues to turn the screws on both corsi and stone. one thing as i have read it, it doesn't show that they knew anything was stolen in any way by anybody. anyone ever hear of the pentagon papers? just a thought. remember, it is now day 559 of mueller's destroy trump witch hunt. zero evidence, zero, of

trump/russia collusion. we have lying to the fbi, lying to prosecutors, lying on loan applications, didn't pay your taxes. where is the collusion? why not go after hillary? what we are seeing is a two-tiered justice system? hillary clinton paid for phoney russian lies that were fed to you, the american people, to influence the 2016 election and no legal consequences? president trump, everyone associated with him, they turn the screws ever so tight. mueller and his merry band of partisan investigators with a horrific track record. it is a travesty of justice, the biggest abuse of power corruption scandal we have had. never mind hillary clinton from the get-go got exonerated, no real investigation. they were writing her exoneration in may and they didn't interview her and 17 other people until july. she committed obvious and clear felonies including obstruction

when she deleted, acid watched and you busted up devices. the friends in the mainstream media, they can't get enough. they never talk about the dual justice system. completely obsessed with a phoney trump russia collusion theory. they are all but ignoring the major scandal surrounding what might be the world's sketchest, so-called charity. the clinton foundation back in the news. federal investigation now currently under way into bill and hillary's surprise nonprofit organization. fbi alths are seeking to determine whether or not they employed an elicit play to pay scheme for years. remember, during hillary's tenure as then senator and then secretary of state and during her two runs for the presidency, that foundation raked in tens and tens of millions of dollars. many of the largest donations coming from foreign governments. we are talking about millions of dollars from australia, norway,

the netherlands, ireland, and remember, hillary clinton's xlam to be the champion of women during the 2017 campaign, her foundation took in tens and tens of millions of dollars from countries with the most despicable, disgusting, horrific human rights records, treating women like second and third-class citizens and worse. the clinton foundation taking between $10 million and $5 million from saudi arabia to forbid women from traveling without a male guardian's permission, persecutes christians and jews and gives the death penalty to gays and lesbians. they took millions from these countries and bought the clinton silence and they took more from qatar and uae and algeria. she never criticized those atrocious human rights records like we have regularly. in 2016, the foundation took in

a whopping, get this, the year she is running, $62 million. in 2017, after clinton's devastating loss to donald trump, her foundation only received $26 million in donations. that's a huge, massive drop. after it became clear that hillary clinton would never be president, so what were all those big donors hoping to gain from their enormous deposits into the clinton foundation? looks to me like that's called access, pay to play, paid access at the highest levels of our federal government. imagine for a second donald trump ever did this. you are buying access that no other law-abide be citizen would ever dream of. do you think they get invitations to the white house, access to the president if she had won, access to the senate seat when she had that, the state department when she was secretary of state? if everything went according to plan, access to the oval office.

everything didn't go according to plan and hillary clinton lost because you, we, the people voted and donald trump became president in spite of all the deep state's effort to prevent that from happening. they are delegitimizing and we will see in the next two years nothing but an all-out effort and assault to destroy the presidency of donald trump. now, we have the opportunity to uncover what looks like a completely corrupt pay to play scheme that should have no place in this constitutional republic of ours. the mainstream media, they choose to ignore this developing scandal. they are all things democratic and they are an extension of the democratic party. they are too busy covering stormy and et cetera, et cetera. they don't want to cover the crisis at the southern border, not in a fair and honest way. now, thousands of migrants have arrived south of san diego. the biased press can no longer ignore the serious situation or pretend it is some grand

conspiracy theory cooked up by the gop to get votes in the mid terms. instead, the media's echo chamber is spinning out of control over the use of non-lethal tear gas. many assaulting our own border patrol with rocks and bottles and other projectiles. we have it on tape. take a look. bad things breaking out at the san ysidro port of entry near tijuana. the president falsely described it as an invasion. now, he seems intent on trying to make it as ugly as he imagined it. >> is there any defense for using tear gas on children? >> what americans really should be, specially trump supporters, people who don't quite see the inhumanity that's going on here, who maybe think that 3-year-olds need tear gas. >> there has to be a pragmatic and compassionate answer that

does not involve tear gassing children. >> we look at tear gassing for children. that's the united states causing that. >> he wants that chaos on the border as he continues to treat these people, so many of whom are leaving violent lives in central america, like try terrorists. >> your mainstream media doing anything and everything to vilify president trump over the crisis at our southern border. however, as per usual, they have completely failed to tell the whole truth. look at the study tonight from news busters. last night, networks totally ignored the use of tear gas during the obama administration. do you remember this kind of his tear ya? tear gas was used about once a month during barack obama's time in offense in order to repel migrants at the border. once a month. think about that. isn't that all you need to

really know about the bias of the media in this country. there was no monthly outrage over the actions of the obama administration, no grandstanding, no dramatic pleas for civility, no talk about women and children. this shows without any shadow of a doubt, the destroy trump press, and that's who they are, are willing to do and say anything and everything to damage the administration. this has been two years and on going. many on the left try to paint the trump administration as monsters. the statistics, the truth, history tells a much different story. in fact, 100,000 asylum claims were processed last year under the trump administration. by the way, that happens to be a record-setting amount. that's up 6,000 from obama's final year in office. under the trump immigration application, into the united states they have surged. probably because of the better economy. unfortunately, this causes serious bag logs and we now are

currently at 786,000 pending immigration cases. keep in mind, the u.s. has received 160,000 asylum cases this year, compared to just 42000 in 2008. a good economy, again. as of september, there were 42000 likely illegal immigrants held in ice detention facilities despite only enough funding and capacity for 40,000 people. the president has requested more funding for ice. as we know and as we can see, america's immigration resources are stretched extremely thin. they are operating at maximum capacity. this makes the situation at our southern border even more serious and more dangerous for those people that put their lives on the line to protect our country, or sovereignty, our borders, our rule of law. none of this seems to matter to the left. the president is working hard to improve the lives of our american people, our immigration

system, strengthen our borders and ask people to respect our laos. the left is working overtime to destroy the reputation of the trump administration. no conspiracy is too absurd, no lie too egregious. i digress here a second. when the democrats take control of the house, when they do, we have great things planned. it is only going to get worse, mark my words. two years, never-ending nonstop attacks, nonstop investigation. what are they going to do for you, we, the people, to improve the economy and our security, to bring us to energy independence? probably nothing. here now with more on the serious on going situation at the southern border, south carolina senator, lindsey graham. you know what's amazing, first, you see the statistics in the obama years and all the times they used tear gas. do you remember any reports, any hysteria from the media about

that? >> number one, no. how long does it take you to figure this out? whether it com-- when it comes obama, when he uses tear gas, he is protecting the country. trump is a cruel, heartless bastard and it undercuts the argument that obama used it to protect our border from being overrun. what do you say to the people that shot the canisters? i stand behind the men and women on the border standing between us and people that want to cross illegally. when you are slamming the tear gas, you are slamming the people we put on the border to protect us. that's what disgusts me the most. >> what are they supposed to do, when rocking and bottles are being pelted at them? what are we supposed to do when they are breaking down barriers and want to rush the border? this is what we were warning about before the election.

it is now coming to pass. there are thousands more still coming. >> i have been a lawyer in the military most of my adult life. you use the least amount of force possible to protect you and secure the mission. the mission is to protect the border from being overrun. tear gas keeps the people apart. you don't get in a fight. that's a good thing. the bottom line is donald trump was right to call the caravan out weeks ago. he is right to make sure it never crosses the border. people throughout the world are watching the president. if he blinks here, his credibility on securing the border is dead. he is not going to blink. to my democratic friends, how go you expect the public to work with us to fix a broken immigration system if you support one wave after another? a lot is at stake. the president is not going to bend or back down. i hope the republicans and congress will stand behind him.

president obama tear gases people on a monthly basis. we will talk to kyrstin neilson. we have identified and mexico has identified at least 500, maybe 600 criminals coming across that border that have integrated themselves into the migrant population. when i sat through a briefing with rick perry in texas when he was governor, a security briefing that obama should have been at, when i sat through it, they had a seven-year period of time, 642000 crimes committed against texans. some minor, many serious, including murder. i have interviewed angel moms and dads more than i ever wanted to in my whole life, lost their lives to illegal immigrants that we even had in our justice system and never deported. at what point does the government bear the responsibility that they didn't do their job and enforce the law? what culpability do they have? >> i think we have a lot of

culpability as a nation from ignoring this problem. doing the same old thing and expecting a different outcome is insanity. president trump is going to stop the caravan. the next ones coming won't come if this one is stopped. he will shut down the border if he has to. democrats should give him the money he needs to secure the border. if they deny him the funding to secure our border, president trump is going to push back and fight back. this is a day of reckoning for the american people. what message do you want to send to the rest of the world about our border? if you want to be open borders, this is your chance. if you want to stand firm, this is also your opportunity and i hope democrats understand you have got to really hate trump to not see this caravan is a problem for the american people. >> let me ask you a last question about mueller. the president said he is not going to stop this, never had any plans. he said it numerous times now. at this point, how do we justify as a nation that believes in a constitutional republic.

we agree in equal application of our laws, equal justice under the law and hillary used paid for phoney russians lies to influence the american people. that was used as a fraud on the fisa court, would never verify or corroborated. hillary never identified as having paid for it. then it goes further and it is used as part of a leak strategy. the bulk of information according to yours and charles sgr grassley's memo. why has mueller, if he cares about russian interference, she paid for it, why is that not an issue? >> you can't blame mueller. it is not his charter to look at that. i do blame -- >> whoa. why is it not? if he is looking for russia collusion, why is that not within his mandate whether somebody's loan application is within his mandate? >> it might be. i blame the department of justice for not appointing a special counsel to look at the

fisa warrant. they got away with a lot here. if i'm chairman of the committee next year, we are going to look at fisa warrant program. >> could we get to the bottom of hillary's e-mails and destruction of e-mails? >> we need a special counsel to look at this. did they have a political bias? this screams for a special counsel. that's why trump was so upset at the sessions department of justice. >> lindsey graham, thank you for being with us. we will go live to mississippi waiting on the results of this crucial last senate race. we'll have more on mueller witch hunt. joe dejeneva and herman cain are next ahead.

joining us now with the latest news on the high stakes, mississippi senate election, fox

news correspondent, our friend, peter deuoocdoocy, is there on ground. i am getting some anecdotal report about turnout in more republicans areas versus democratic areas. what i have heard, democratic strong holds didn't have the bounce that would be needed to win in mississippi. >> reporter: from what i saw a minute ago, it doesn't sound like enough of certain counties are in yet to know for sure. that is the case in some places, maybe not in others. it was interesting. we drove from gulfport here to jackson, a couple hours. just about everywhere we went on the side of the road, there were these big flashing billboards that said vote again. we know how many people got a message to cast a ballot for the second time in three weeks. 30%-40% of registered voters who are saying it started out slow and steady but really picked up toward the end of the day. right now, the democrat, mike

espy, is having his election night event at the mississippi civil rights museum. we understand he is on site watching returns that could make him the first african-american senator elected in mississippi since reconstruction. cindy hyde-smith frying to make history of herself as the first-ever woman elected to the senate from mississippi. she is weighing to see if voters who said they were offended by a joke she made by a public hanging voted in larger number than people that took it as a joke. they tried to shine a light on a clinton era indictment against mike espy and last night some of the people introducing the president and cindy hyde-smith came to the stage to say he had to leave, espy had to leave as clinton's agriculture secretary because he was too corrupt for the clintons. we'll see which argument was stronger shortly. >> peter, please tell me when you talk to your dad and that, please ask him why i was dumped

on page 184 of his latest book. i was dumped at the very latest. >> i call him. i text him. i think you are with the entrees. it goes in the order of a meal. >> i wasn't the appetizer. peter, we'll be checking back with you, monitoring all the results out of mississippi. we'll bring you any numbers as they come in. they are notoriously slow, unfortunately. we are hoping they come in soon. earlier tonight, jerome corsi sat down with our own tucker carlson discussing his experience dealing with team mueller. >> everything they wanted, i had nothing to hide. i gave it to them immediately. for having forgotten on day one, because i hadn't reviewed the e-mail, this particular e-mail about ted mallick, i am now being charged with willfully and knowingly giving false

information, which is nonsense. >> do you think that your political views are playing a role in the decision of the special counsel to charge you with a felony? >> yes, i think. also, they accused me of deleting the e-mails. i told them to restore the e-mails. they restored them that i supposedly deleted through the time machine. this is a political witchhunt. >> former u.s. attorney for the district of columbia, joe dej dejenova and herman king. sometimes they say testing the lie, listen, if you don't want to spend ten years, the rest of your life in jail, we fleed information. they make a deal and usually, sadly, often is the case, joe, tell me if i'm wrong, they are basically telling you what they want to hear. paul manafort and jerome corsi, from my observation are refusing to tell them what they want to hear even though they would

benefit dramatically and may both face life in prison. they are refusing to capitulate. is that accurate? is that probably accurate? >> yes, i think it is. i think we can tell right now from the manner in which the mueller investigation has failed, utterly failed to produce any evidence of collusion between the russian government and the trump campaign or president trump himself. so now what they are doing is they are in spasms of vindictive prosecution, unethical prosecution just to get somebody to get something to get close to the president. it is outrageous. i hope that the next attorney general, the permanent attorney general, who i hope the president will nominate soon, will take control of this. one of the first things he should do, the new attorney general, after sworn in, is have a meeting with mr. mueller, find out what's going on, where he is

going and when he is going to end. that's a duty that the next attorney general has, because this investigation by mueller is unkonts constitutional, founded on no crime, created by rod rosenstein because he is a gutless failure of an attorney general. he should be ashamed of himself. the new attorney general should fire rosenstein asap. >> people ask, why do you bring up clinton? number one, these very same people that have attacked this president, peter strzok, paige, comey, they all set this up. they allowed hillary to get away with known crimes, obstruction, a violation of the espionage act. it is now incontravertable. that's the point. she paid for the phoney russian dossier that steel never stood

by. fisa courts were lied to, information with held, nothing was verified. then, russian lies fed to the american people paid for by her. how does that get ignored and we have no evidence here ever of any trump/russia collusion. >> it gets ignored because of h hypocrisy on steroids. jerome corsi is one of the most honorable, honest individuals on the planet. no one can remember ever word, every nuance of everything they play have said over the last ten years. no human being on earth. when they get an opportunity to dig through dozens and dozens and thousands of pages of comments, they will pick out one thing they want to use to run up the flag pole to make a case out of it. this is nothing but a witchhunt looking for a witch and they

haven't found a witch in nearly two years, sean. that's all it is. >> i believe, joe, if jerome corsi wanted to make it easy on himself, paul manafort wanted a lessor sentence. all they had to do was say what was wanted. we have mueller and his pitbull, weissman, have a history of this. >> here is the deal. you are absolutely right. both of these men could give mueller the lies that he wants if they wanted to make life easy for themselves. you bring up weissman. andrew weissman has a reputation for being one of the most ethical prosecutors in the country. he has been rebuked many times. remember, andrew weissman showed up at hillary clinton's victory party on election night. he sent sally yates an e-mail saying, bravo, for violating an order of the president of the united states when she refused to enforce the travel ban. that tells you why mueller's team is compromised, conflicted,

ethically and in every conceivable way and it is a disgrace that bob mueller hired no republicans and all democrats who are clintonistas. >> thank you both. we well follow this closely. when we come back, my exclusive interview with homeland security secretary, kyrstin nielsen. what the media doesn't want you to know about the border next. b. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats differently. for psoriasis, 75% clearer skin is achievable, with reduced redness, thickness, and scaliness of plaques. for psoriatic arthritis, otezla is proven to reduce joint swelling, tenderness, and pain. and the otezla prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting.

otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. tell your doctor about your medicines and if you're pregnant or planning to be. otezla. show more of you.

fox news alert as we continue to monitor the senate election results out of mississippi at this hour. cindy hyde-smith leads 55.8% to 44.2%. 38% of the precincts are reporting. we will continue to update you throughout the hour as these important results come in. big difference here. it is either going to be 53-47

in the u.s. senate, republican advantage, or 52-48. a big difference for confirmations, big difference as it relates to supreme court justices that are trying to be confirmed. first, we go back to the crisis on our southern border. the h.s. secretary, kirstjen nielsen, released a statement yesterday saying the migrant caravan is far larger, more organized than previous once. earlier, i sat down with the secretary to talk about this and so much more. >> madam secretary, good to see you. >> good to see you. >> let's talk first about the weekend. let me quote one border patrol chief, car that carla provost. our agents were rushed and they were throwing rocks and bottles at my men and women putting them in harm's way. how bad was it? >> sean, let me just say, this is a testament to the training and professionalism of the

border patrol that no one was hurt. we had 1,000 people rushing the border in a very violent and lawless way. we will not stand by as our border patrol are attacked. so they defended themselves. >> i don't know if they have any choice. the thing is, we see now that the mayor interestingly of tijuana said, excuse me, trump was right. this is an invasion. they have now had a lot of issues that they have had to deal with. the migrants, the caravan are still coming. they are coming in bigger numbers. what if larger numbers of people rush the border, are you confident you are prepared? >> we were prepared this time. we will be prepared for any additional migrants. the president has made it quite clear. we will not tolerate illegal or violent entry into our country. this time, he talked about it for a month in advance as the caravans were making their way up. he raised awareness. he called in the military. he called in con stan stein

wire. we will be prepared. we will not allow illegal entry into our country. >> one thing the president said, if they are going to be seeking asylum, they are not going to be in this country or allowed in this country while whatever process goes forward. one of the problem has been, people cross the border, claim asylum, get a court date, they are released into america and they never show up again. how insistent is the president that they stay in mexico? how are relations with mexico considering they were told a long time ago they should be dealing with this? >> this is an important point you raised, sean. we only see about 9%, 10% of central americans that make an asylum claim actually be granted asylum by an immigration judge. that's really important to put in perspective. 90% of those making asylum claims are not making the claim that can be honored under the

statutory framework within the united states, not a valid reason for asylum. you have heard me say it before. if you are coming to get a job, that's not a claim for asylum. if you are coming to be with your family, that's not a claim for asylum. >> isn't it likely they are going to be coached? if they want asylum, didn't mexico offer them work permits to work in south mexico. that was rejected by most. how many people are in the remaining caravan still making its way north? >> we believe there will be about 10,000 ultimately. there is between 8,000 and 10,000 now. the government of mexico offered everyone asylum and work permits. that's why this caravan is very different than ones we have seen in the past. not only is it violent. to the extent it claims that its members would like to seek asylum. they have been offered asylum. they have turned it down in mexico. >> let me play a shot from 60 minutes, scott pelle. the argument was about the separation issues and how there

was a warrant for one 3-year-old. the president tweeted out, and we have images of even young people, when obama was president, that are behind fences. they would say it is cages if it was donald trump. watch this. >> the trump administration made the decision to separate children from families. what responsibilities did they take on in your estimation? >> they issued an order without consulting with the agencies who were responsible for carrying out that order. we take better care of people's effects when we send them to the jail than we took care of the children who we took from their parents. >> you quit your job at homeland security. i wonder why. >> i had taken an oath to uphold the constitution. we were being asked as a department to do something that violated the civil rights and civil liberties of persons. >> i want to get your reaction. wasn't it president trump that stopped the practice through an executive order? >> sean, it was. i am so disappointed in that

piece. that is journalist. that's not journalist. that's factually incorrect. we did not have a policy to separate families from the children. what the president said and all presidents before him, we are first law. this president takes it very seriously. we enforced the law against those that chose tone ter illegally, not go legally to a port of entry but enter illegally. they were prosecuted. because of that, if they had children with them, so as not to put children in a custodial jail, they were separated and put in the good care of hhs. "60 minutes," they need to go back and check their facts. they should have taken more time to understand how the immigration laws of this country work. results now coming in out of mississippi. the republican has a big lead with a little over 40% of the vote in. we'll get to that. also, the media going after our first lady over christmas decorations. they can't stop hating a lovely

first lady. they wouldn't do in to michelle obama, would they? we'll get to that. jess jesse, jessica, whose world? we'll find out straight ahead.

. this is a fox news alert. we are monitoring the results out of the great state of mississippi. there you have it. at this moment, cindy hyde-smith is leading 55-45%. 46% of precincts reporting. we'll have more on that. our own peter doocy is on the ground in a minute. first, christmas season can't slow down the media's unhinged, 24/7, every second, minute, hour of every day, trump hate machine. they are using the white house christmas display as a line of attack against the first lady.

they are calling the decoration trees of death comparing them to "the handmaid's tale." it is pretty despicable. i have seen it, absolutely beautiful, stunning decorations. all these media people, and we'll get to our guests. co-host of the 5, watters world and fox news contributor, jessica tarlow. >> in and out. >> we can't even let the first lady, and the great irony is, all of your liberal friends, they are begging for tickets. i know who they are, to get into the parties at the white house. you know where i'm not doing? i'm not going to a white house christmas party. i wasn't invited, were you? >> yes, i was. i can't believe trump didn't invite you after all of the nice things you have said. >> you really want to run into all our fake news friends. >> i just want to see the beautiful christmas decorations.

i think they are gorgeous. >> why do they constantly pick on the first lady? >> i do know. >> who is beyond lovely, sacrifices a lot, is out there doing causes that are trying to help kids and people in the country. why? i didn't see this. michelle obama got criticized for saying for the first time in my adult life i'm proud of my country. >> she got criticized for a lot more, including wearing sleeveless shirts. >> i'm still upset about the shirt. >> the christmas decorations, whether you like them or not, it is not really the point. i saw people focusing on the be best decoration, the cyberbullying campaign. it is hypocritical. she said she was one of the most bullied people out there. if michelle obama had. >> imagine if hillary was elected, bill clinton would have been in charge of the christmas decorations, mistletoe

everywhere. the media would love that too. >> that's beneath you. this is what happened when trump won out. >> that was funny. he is winning by a lot. he got you there. >> this is when trump derangement syndrome meets the war on christmas. you get decorategate. you guys are scared of christmas decorations. i didn't think you were that big of a snowflake. i'm going to buy a trumpy bear and give one to you. it will be like your little emotional support animal. >> is that trumpy bear thing real. have you seen that commercial? it is frightening. >> it pace your salary. >> i don't know. i don't think the trees are that big of a deal. >> i just think we need to show the first lady, and ivanka, leave them out. >> baron doesn't need to see

another severed head. >> she is the first lady. she has taken on responsibility for this campaign. >> cindy hyde-smith looks like she is going to win so far. >> it is important she gets this seat. you don't have to worry about the romney swing vote, the susan collins swing vote. you have a solid republican vote and it looks good. >> he didn't lose 69 seats like obama or 60 like clinton. >> you are not actually going to argue this was a job well done by the republicans. >> 69-60. trump wins seats because he went out and campaigned. >> we just picked up 40 states. we had 40 states because of the new california state. blue wave all over the place. the popular vote here. >> this is easy tonight. sorry. in, out, "his world." what do you think? >> do you agree?

>> peter doocy, great reporting. we'll get the final tally and call coming up soon. unfortunately, this is terrible. all the time we have left. i can't stay here any more. let not your heart be troubled. laura ingraham is from washington d.c. not the swamp or sewer. >> laura: you think of mike espy, this is like the old home team. these names are floating out there. >> this is a big win. think about this, trump goes, he helps marsha blackburn and helped desantis and scott and helped claire mccaskill with hawley and he helped heidi heitkamp. it will help him
