they will have another meeting on friday. what took place yesterday was fascinating because this president does things like nobody else. for example, bring in the cameras and i will freelance for a while then i will go to the situation room and try to end a shutdown. ainsley: in december we saw him with the cameras with nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. brian: that went well. ainsley: this time no cameras or cell phones aloud. it ended without any progress people say. democrats interrupted. they agreed to reconvene on friday and the president said let's make a deal. democrats said nothing for the wall. steve: here is what it comes down to, going into the meeting and we told you yesterday morning if you joined us how it was going to turn out. the president wants his negotiation is $5.6 billion. but, you know, i will take less then that's part of the deal. nancy pelosi, to brian's point, is going to be up for speakership, the election. she does not want her left flank to say oh, she is not tough enough. i'm not going to vote for

her. so she had to say zero. i'm going to give you zero money for the wall, mr. president. but the president says i want money for a wall. and he thinks that's what america wants. >> as long as it takes, i mean, look, i'm prepared, i think the people of the country think i'm right. i think the people of this country think i'm right. again, i could have done nothing. i could have had a lot easier presidency by doing nothing. but, i'm here. i want to do it right. brian: evidently during the meeting kirstjen nielsen was on skype i imagine or face time. i'm not sure which, but she said hey, first off secretary nielsen homeland security tell us what's going on at the border. her point was this is not a reason to act. this is a crisis you have to act. six seconds in senator schumer looks at nancy pelosi and says interrupt her. takes her down and interrupts her before she could get any of her stats

out that would have made for what we would use as a productive conversation. steve: that's why they used the situation room yesterday so they could actually watch those monitors. but, instead, the democrats wanted to shut her down did, not want to hear the rationale behind the administration's request for this $5 billion and the wall money because, instead, they wanted to talk about how are we going to open up the government? it's like we are not going to talk about that right now. let's talk about the wall because it is a crisis. and, in fact, after that meeting, the department of homeland security sent out a list of why it is a crisis by the numbers. for instance, one the things that i saw yesterday, in guatemala right now, there are 15,000 guatemalans who are about to form a caravan and guess where they are heading? and then you look at the other statistics. in each of the last three months, 60,000 migrants have come to our southern border. 855% of the 60,000 a month

have tried to enter the country illegally. 15% went to the ports, and they didn't have any documents. ainsley: it's numbers like that that are baffling a lot of people. katie waldman is one of those. she is the dhs spokeswoman and she sent out this statement. democrats in the room either don't care that there is a humanitarian crisis on the border or just prefer ignorance. it was incredibly disheartening that they don't want to know the facts when they making policy. brian: every day, 65% of the people who come to the border are children, unaccompanied. why people don't know there is a crisis. what i would really appreciate is, when you cut off somebody with stats, you are saying this is pure politics. i don't want to know the facts. unless you have court facts. but they don't because they don't want to move forward. maybe it's because nancy pelosi can't possibly show any give before she locks up her second term as speaker. congressman kevin mccarthy wants to be speaker one day. now he is the highest ranking republican in the house said this about what he saw. >> once the secretary

started, senator schumer interrupted her and they didn't really want to hear it and they challenged some of the points the secretary made. we were hopeful that we could get more negotiation. i know the vice president had sat down with senator schumer, had given him paper and work to try to come to an agreement, to find common ground. i had hoped we would get a little more of that today. hopefully friday we will be able to get there. steve: see, the key to friday, friday will be after she is elected speaker and then she could negotiate. maybe. because, yesterday, she wasn't budging. >> are you willing to come up and give him some of this money for the wall. >> no. >> because apparently that's the sticking point. >> no. nothing for the wall. we are talking about border security. >> nothing for the wall but that means. >> we can go through this back and forth, no. how many more times can we say no. nothing for the wall. brian: doesn't seem like a lot of give there senator lamar alexander writes editorial today.

look, you have a couple of options. give the president 1.6 billion and another billion for security at ports of entry. approve a bipartisan bill linking the wall funding with protection for young immigrants brought illegally to the country as children. resurrect the 2013 comprehensive immigration overhaul that included huge increases in border security measures. that's a guy a senator from tennessee. listen, i'm going to be leaving here in two years. i have seen this before. no one is benefiting. 800,000 people don't know there is not a paycheck. the pandas can't get fed. steve: the pan does are being fed they are just not open. brian: we can't see them being fed which is worse. steve: panda cam is turned off. brian: someone unplugged the panda cam. we can't go to the zoo or smithsonian. they are forced to have vacations they don't want. there is a way out. and this is before day one of nancy pelosi' agenda. that's why i think she is eventually going to have to flip. because she can't get out of

block unless this thing -- ainsley: the president needed 25 billion. now is he asking for 5 billion. is he trying to negotiate. the democrats say absolutely not. you heard nancy say we are not giving him extra money. senator lindsey graham summed up what she saw and what his opinion is. he summed it up like. this the president said let's make a deal. the president -- the democratic response is basically go to hell. they are going to send a bill from the house to the senate that has no money for the wall. it's not going to see the light of day. mitch mcconnell is never going to bring the bill onto the floor of the senate that doesn't have money for the wall. we need the wall. they have all voted for the wall. >> let me ask you this. >> only way to get the wall is to fight for it. steve: here is what is going to happen today. the democrats are going to unveil two different bills. one will be to fund most of the federal government through next september. and the other one and that's crucial one, is the one that will fund the department of homeland security through the first week in february. that's where the fight is going to be.

because, going forward, obviously they are going to fund the government and that will get that out of the way and then they can have the fight over the wall money because with that set aside then, that would explain why mitch mcconnell said we could have a shutdown for weeks; however, as "the washington post" notes this morning, with the shutdown, the impact much of the federal government has not been touched and a lot of people across the country don't even notice that part of the federal government is shut down. ainsley: the jobs that are staying only are jobs related to national security and those essential jobs like social security, military. brian: your checks are coming through. ainsley: that's right. brian: if nancy pelosi wants to be effective leader if she learned anything the first time and here is the shutdown list for everything. ainsley: that's what's open. brian: has to be productive leader. somebody in congress not running for president wants to be leader and do the job they were elected to do, you can't do it if the government is partially

shutdown. that's my sense is there will be some type of acquiescence. part of the reason is there is a legitimate crisis at the border. it is not made up. you ask the people of brazil or colombia what is happening because central america is falling apart. they are crashin cracking down. this guy in brazil nobody is getting. in too many diseases. they no running water. i'm shutting this down. deal with this with a level head and get politics out of it especially two years from the next election. ainsley: day 13. the longest 1996 was for 21 days. head over to jillian who has headlines for us. jillian: good morning to you. start you off with this story we have been following. the illegal immigrant charged with murdering a california police officer will get a mental health exam. by request of his lawyer the case will be delayed until february when the results are ready in his first court appearance, the suspect revealed he was living under the alias of argue gaffe. real name is pablo men dos

to do with climate. brian: marc, you are for being responsible learning about clean burning fuels and things of that nature. how do you feel about people like senator barrasso imposing insen tistles for people to capture carbon as opposed to penalties and punishment? >> well, there is all kinds of proposals. everyone is for energy efficiency for a clean environment. oddly the more carbon based fuels can you introduce in a developing world, africa, south america and asia the cleaner the environment gets. less people burning dunning dunn their huts and sewage into the river. carbon based fuels actually improve the environment. beyond that everyone wants efficiency you don't ban energy that works and mandate energy that's nowhere ready for prime time all this so-called renewable. that's what they are going after here. brian: marc more ran know, i think you know a lot about this. we you have back. mark, thank you so much. >> thank you.

anti-trump, ronna mcdaniel. thanks for joining us. >> thanks for having me. steve: what was mitt thinking. >> he gave an interview yesterday he said i felt like i needed to get ahead and how i'm going to respond. as party chair, not as mitt's niece, i wanted this is what democrats want. they want to see infighting with our party. and i see voters across the country. i talk to people in our party and they say to me all the time we want republicans to stick together. we want them to support this president. is he doing great things for this country. and let's make sure that we are taking on schumer and pelosi, that's what we need to do as republicans because this is going to be a fight. they are leading the progressive socialist agenda and republicans are leading the prosperity for this country. steve: are you saying that your uncle was helping the democrats with their messaging by attacking the president. >> any time republicans are

critical of this president it becomes a media feeding friendsy. they love the anti-trump narrative within our own party. and i think there is other things we can talk about as republicans. we can talk about schumer and pelosi being unwilling to open the government because of border security. very reasonable measures talk about medicare for all and how that would bankrupt our country. there is a lot of things we can do to take on republicans. republican voters don't want to see us infighting. that's what he sees a party chair. steve: your uncle was the republican nominee and the republican party was on his side. he didn't win but he ran a good race. but now a majority of republicans are on trump's side and a lot of them are angry at your uncle. >> i love my uncle. my tweet yesterday had nothing to do with family. i would have done this any freshman incoming senator and i would have said hey,

let's focus on the real issues here which are the democrats that are proposing dangerous policies for our country. let's remind about the good things that have come out of the trump administration judicially, taking on isis. funding our military. wages are up 3%. 4 million new jobs. we have a media that 90% of the coverage is negative against this president. democrats are obstructing unprecedented level. as a party we need to come together if we are going to be successful because we are up against unprecedented odds and juggernaut of negative media attention. we have got to come together and republicans want to see our senators and congressional members support this president. there is room for disagreement. steve: absolutely. >> let's come together when we can and remember schumer and pelosi are the ones leading this country in a bad direction or trying to. steve: i read this morning in politico that apparently your uncle gave you a heads up. he said hey, going to put new a tight jam. i just want you to know then

you wound up calling the president. >> yeah i was in aqua man the movie aqua man on happy new year's day all of gows tgo tothe movie. my uncle mitt doesn't want to put me in a bad position at all. the reality is i acted as party chair. is he going to act as senator i will say to anybody in our party, our voters want you to support our president. take your bully pulpit. take your media savvy and your leadership and attack the democrats. because they are the ones that our party wants to see you take on. steve: after you sent out your tweet, did you hear back from mitt romney. >> yeah. he sent me a note. our family fights, i mean not fights but about politics for a long time. this is part of our family. he said you have got to do what have you got to do. he understands. steve: some think your uncle might be the leader of the never trump movement. >> i don't think that's the case.

he has said he will work with the president. the president said let's be a team and work together. he put out olive branch. i hope they can work together. think how powerful these two men could be if they are working together on issues and what we can do for our country. steve: there has been a lot of speculation since the op-ed that now maybe mitt romney wants to challenge the president in a primary in 2020. >> he addressed that yesterday on another show and he said no, that's not the case. i'm not going to run. i have run before. that's not why i'm here. is he here to represent the people of utah. let's come together on the issues that we know are going to benefit the american people and work together as a party to put policies forward that continue the economic prosperity and the growth that we are seeing for this country. and president trump has led the way. he has been a leader of our party. he has been a change agent. and americans are better off because of his leadership. steve: all right. ronil mcdaniel the party's chairman. >> we will be fine. steve: all right, ronna,

elected to solve the problems. this doesn't solve problems. this creates a new problem. this was not the mitt romney we ever saw in utah during the 2018 election. he accepted donald trump's endorsement enthusiastically. you never heard him talking about this during the campaign. in october, in the last debate, he was asked specifically about his feelings about donald trump. he said he essentially agreed with donald trump on all the policy issues. to do this before is he sworn in under kicks his effectiveness. here we are talking about it instead of the core issues of the day. ainsley: we were all asking why would he do this? why would he be loyal to the party and loyal to the president who considered him for secretary of state and they seemed to have mended their disagreements? why would he do this articles say he will be the leader of the never trumpers now. and that he could possibly run for president in 2020. >> i hope not. that's not hot people of utah voted and supported to try to represent the state of utah.

that is not going to be productive for us as one of our two senators representing here. and i can tell you personally i'm very disappointed. i had several personal conversations where he went out of his way to say i don't want to get in a tit-for-tat with the president. this is exactly the opposite of that. steve: you spent out 100 days campaigning for him trying to get him elected president of the united states once upon a time. talk about area of expertise for you. you have been in congress for a number of years. now, nancy pelosi later today is going to unveil a couple of bills to get the government going. however, one of the two funds the department of homeland security is a nonstarter because it doesn't have any wall money. how do you get and you know about this. nancy pelosi says zero wall money, the president says 5.6 billion. how do we reopen the government with those people two people at such loggerheads. >> well, i don't think the democrats. they have really put themselves into a box.

they can't define what border security is to say they want more drones. i have been down to the border. i have seen it drones can't fly about half the time because of the weather down on the border. that is a very naive answer. and exemplifies from the fact that when they went into the oval office or went into the white house in the situation room they cut off the homeland security secretary wouldn't even let her give a briefing. there are things. if i was the president i would say really we are not going to do 5 billion for the wall? then let's go back to the $25 billion to actually secure the border and deal with pay and all these other issues that actually will secure the border. brian: do you know what's interesting is if you have people storming the border, unless you put hell fire missiles on the drones it's not going to do much good. point out and highlight with john madden tell straighter all the people coming in unencumbered nancy pelosi's idea of mowing the grass i don't think flies either. >> no. let's do what the border patrol wants. get what the border patrol needs they need more personnel.

the president signed an executive order to do that and try to them up by 5,000. we actually have less border patrol agents on the ground than when we did when the president wanted. they wanted 10,000 -- guess what we have 100 or 2. that's going to take some real money who nancy pelosi is offering is not border security. the mainstream media needs to push her. what do you think border security is? it's an impediment to come across the border. what the border patrol wants is a wall. that's what we should be doing. ainsley: that's why you are saying if you don't want to give us $5 billion for the wall. then give us $25 billion that's how much it will take to secure our border without a wall. >> that's right. ainsley: daughter of nancy pelosi praised her mother in an interview talking about how tough her mom is. listen. >> she will cut your head off and you won't even know you are bleeding. that's all you need to know about her. no one ever won betting against nancy pelosi.

ainsley: she went on to say if she is in charge or when she becomes in charge today it's going to be a beautiful america. what are your thoughts? >> yikes. i think she thinks that's a compliment for her mother she is going to cut your head off. nancy pelosi and i share a birthday and almost every year i invited her to go to five guys and get a burger. but she never took me up on it. i'm shocked. steve: with that kind of assessment from her daughter, do you think if she does become the speaker and, of course, she will, will she be able to negotiate or are we going to have a bitter case of divided government over the next two years? >> i think the sole goal of nancy pelosi is to take down donald trump. that's the only thing she is focused on. the president is on the right side of the issue when it comes to the border wall and national security and he just needs to hold the line and those senators need a backbone to make sure they have got his back as well. brian: yeah. because if she wants to do anything, she can't do it

with a lockout. she can't do it with a shutdown. so she has got to get past this. even if she wants to take down the president, you have 800,000 people waiting for a paycheck it's not going to work. jason, thanks so much. you can get some rest now. >> thank you. ainsley: the call is terrifying. a woman begs 911 for help as her car is sinking into a muddy ditch. >> there is water getting in the car and i can't get out. i'm freezing. >> okay. >> how deep of water are you in? >> well, it's up to my chest. steve: the car was upside down as you can see in those images. that woman and deputies who saved her life with just seconds to spare join us live next. brian: voters saying the partial government shutdown this morning. pete hegseth is having breakfast with friends in indiana. pete. pete: you better believe it 2019 back in the diners. shelbyville, indiana. i'm reading the shelbyville news. there is still a shutdown

way to make something work. >> amen. pete: appreciate that veteran northern. this is richard and janet. thank you for your service in the marine corps. appreciate that as you look at the shutdown and the wall. the president has said as long as it takes, do you agree with him? >> i agree with him. border security is number one in the country. coming from the military we always have to be secure. and i believe that we need to concentrate on ourselves and work with them and stop this influx of immigrants coming in for right now that we can get our stuff together. pete: get our own house in order. janet, do you anticipate the gridlock will break and who do you blame for that? >> i don't know that it will break. i hope that it does. i hope that they can get along and cooperate and get things done for the people. that's what we hired them to be there for. pete: do you think nancy will do that in good faith? >> well, it doesn't look like it. but, there is always hope. we can always pray and hope that they get things done

then i'm like okay, what do i do because obviously this isn't going to help me. so, couldn't find my phone there was already water coming in the car. and i used my apple watch to ping my phone. i heard it ringing under water. when i grabbed it wasn't working. i rubbed it on the seat of the car to try to dry it off and that's when i realized i have to call 911. and i called 911. and dispatch lady really like helped me stay calm and walk me through that whole situation. ainsley: chris, what happens? you get the call. you say you and the guys, the dive team you need to go and rescue her, try to find her. i hear it was very foggy. it took more than 15 minutes to find the car. >> absolutely. dispatch dispatched the dive team along with patrol deputy the. patrol made it on first and located the vehicle and dive

team got there right after. we saw the vehicle obviously inside the ditch. the mud and water were past the doors. you could only see the top of the vehicle which was actually smoking on top. and once the patrol deputy right behind me confirmed we still had a victim inside and he could actually hear her inside, jeremy myself grabbed our gear because we didn't know how much of an air pocket she still had. we wanted to get an airline to her if it was still needed. once we got and confirmed we need to get her out of this vehicle. i tried prying open the driver door but the situation with the mud there was no prying open that door. so jeremy actually went to the passenger side and was able to open up the passenger side and get her out. amanda absolutely saved her own life that night. ainsley: y'all saved her too, jeremy, ryan, chris, you are angels and heroes. amanda, what's your message to them? >> i just want to thank all of you guys for helping me that night and just without you guys, there is no way i would have made it out of there by myself.

room between party leaders reveals very little reason for optimism: steve: remember it all started a couple weeks ago when nancy pelosi chuck schumer sat down with the president in the oval office. cameras come in. she certai essentially threw don the gauntlet mr. president you cannot get that bill out of the house of representatives which was controlled by republicans then. s you know what? they were able to get it through the house but it stalled in the senate. you need that super majority thing. yesterday they were very clear. the president on his sheet of things to get today i need $5.6 billion for the wall. on nancy pelosi's sheet zero. and after the meeting, it was very clear there was no negotiating. because they were both very dug in and we are, you know, next stop is going to be with mitch mcconnell to see of which the two bills the democrats introduce today will get through the senate. ainsley: situation room meeting was yesterday afternoon and last night the president tweeted. he said important meeting today on border security

republican and democrat leaders in congress. both parties must work together to pass a funding bill that protects the nation and its people. this is the first and most important duty of government. i remain ready and willing to work with democrats to pass a bill that secures our borders, supports the agents and officers on the ground and keeps america safe. let's get it done. brian: the problem is this isn't something that would be good to have like a tax cut or promise like an agenda item. this is something that's a crisis on the border. anyone who tells you different, notice there is no election going on. notice that video aren't a bunch of actors. notice what happened on new year's eve or new year's day at 2:00 in the morning. notice the people while they sit there and stare each other down in washington whoever day are on the front lines at our border trying to keep us safe. here we are in the middle of a lockdown. kirstjen nielsen hops on for presentation just to get this meeting going with facts and she gets cut off six seconds in when senator schumer liens over nancy pelosi gender thing cutting

off a woman in today's environment might not be good, perhaps. she cuts her off before letting everybody know it's a crisis. that let's you know they are not serious. steve: keep in mind, they were all invited in to have a briefing on the border crisis. and the democrats six seconds in wanted to talk about reopening the government. there was a long debate over, okay, border security. what is that exactly? couldn't define it. what about this wall thing? is it more of a fence? i was talking to somebody who was briefed on the meeting and they said that the president, during the meeting, never raised his voice, took both sides in. he was trying to negotiate. he would have taken something less than $5.6 billion but the democrats so dug in because nancy pelosi is up for the speakership. and she cannot cave on this one issue yesterday. that's why the president scheduled another meeting. okay. we got nowhere today. come back friday and let's

make a deal. maybe then something will happen. ainsley: it's frustrating for a lot of republicans because they feel like the president is already negotiating. he wanted 25 billion. he is asking now for a little more than 5 billion. and democrats are saying you are not getting any money at all. katie waldman dhs spokeswoman she is very frustrated democrats in the room either don't care there is a humanitarian crisis on the border or just prefer ignorance. it was incredibly disheartening that they don't want to know the facts when making policy. brian: my hunch is if anything is going to get done it's going to go back to senator lindsey graham and dick durbin try to do something behind the scenes after leadership is chosen today. friday they are going to meet again, see if there is any give. jason chaffetz was with us earlier. remember he was former chairman of oversight. dealing with nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. he said this maybe the president should keep in mind in the next phase of this standoff. >> they have really put themselves into a box because they can't define what border security is.

if i was the president, i would say really? we're not going to do 5 billion for the wall in then let's go back to the $25 billion to actually secure the border. what nancy pelosi is offering is not border security. and the mainstream media needs to push her. what do you think border security is? it's an impediment to come across the border. what the border patrol wants is a wall. that's what we should be doing. brian: took on the argument. it's immoral as nancy pelosi says to put a wall around your country or mid evil as other people have said. walls work. he says like he also said the wall is immoral. then you better do something about the vatican. the vatican has the biggest wall of them all. if there is immoral leadership. the pope hasn't been too complimentary about the wall idea. maybe they should reconsider their wall around the vatican. ainsley: jason chaffetz brings up a good point. he said more expensive without that wall. that's why the president is going to need 25 billion. he outlines exactly what that money needs to be used for. he says it's going to cost $5 billion to fix the current walls and fencing.

border patrol and ice need a 20% pay increase. we need to properly fund the entry and exit tracking system at the border. that's just in developmental phase. he said we need to use the money to track people who use border crossing cards because people are coming. in they're spending 72 72 hours or less. we don't know where they are if they even leave. money to detain illegals and cargo. you can read the list on foxnews.com. steve: nancy pelosi is going to introduce two bills. one will fund the federal government through next september. that will certainly pass through the senate. the other bill. brian: pass through the house. steve: and then through the senate. mitch mcconnell is going to do it. starts in the house and goes through the senate. and mitch mcconnell will pass that then when it comes to the narrow little slir of slr of money to fund the department of homeland security that's where the loggerheads are going to be. that way mitch, through the first bill will be able to

open the government with the president and then they will continue to have the wall fight. they are really dug in. not anywhere close. brian: do you know who is for the wall? mitt romney. that's where i agree with the president when it comes to immigration reform and comes to the wall. is he very upset with the president's tone especially in september. how do i know? because we get "the washington post" delivered to the building. his editorial came out yesterday where he called the president out in a way that jeff flake and bob corker have over the last two years. many people wonder is mitt romney taking over the never trump movement and what was his -- what is the tactic here as he is set to take over for six years as senator from utah. and guess what this does? it puts the chairman of the rnc, his niece, in an odd situation. ainsley: yeah, she tweeted about it. there are reports out that say that he called her and said i'm about. steve: during aqua man. ainsley: i'm going to release this op-ed. it puts her in a bad spot because she is the rnc chair.

her boss is the president. and so, essentially so she works for, you know, the republican party and the president is republican. so it does put her in a bad spot. did you an excellent interview with her earlier. here's a clip of that. >> you know, as party chair, not as mitt's niece, i wanted to point out this is what democrats want. they want to see infightingfighg with our party. my uncle doesn't want to put me in a bad position at all, but the reality is i acted as party chair. is he going to act as senator and i'm going to say to anybody in our party, our voters want you to support our president. take your bully pulpit, take your media savvy and your leadership and attack the democrats. because they are the ones that our party wants to see you take on. steve: right. after she did send out that tweet, then mitt romney did call her up. she revealed on the show a half an hour ago. i understand what you are doing. you are doing what you have to do as the leader of the rnc. in the meantime, president trump said, look, that mitt

romney, that mitt romney who wrote that op-ed, that guy could have won. >> i wis mitt could be more of a team player. i'm surprised he did it this quickly. i expected something but i was surprised he did it this quickly. look, i endorsed him. he thanked me very profusely. he was very nice. but i am surprised because we have done a lot. he actually says it. i read his op-ed. he said it. brian: my sense it, the president is doing two things tactically extremely smart. is he not going after nancy pelosi, personally, because he has to work with her. and he is not going after mitt romney because he wants to work with them. he is giving him another shot. giving him leeway despite the shot across the bough. i think it shows great poise. and it's not easy in this spot because i know his first temptation is to hit back right away. ainsley: i'm curious to find out what you think what mitt romney did. do you agree with that?

brian: someone who is never disagreeable, jillian. jillian: good morning. how are you guys? no response? ainsley: short workweek. love our jobs. jillian: i'm looking forward to friday. get you caught up on headlines starting with. this the suspected killers of jamal khashoggi make court appearance. five face a death penalty. they have not been named but turkish government release video of alleged hit squad. that's where khashoggi was murdered. his remains have since been found. possible ties to the case of the missing colorado mom. abc news reports the woman may have disposed of kelsey berreth's cell phone. it pinged in idaho three days after kelsey berreth disappeared. unclear if they knew each other. patrick frazee is charged with murder. today their families will fight for custody of the couple's 1-year-old daughter. take a look at this. the world's first closeup

signs for protesters say california is to blame. sheriff adam christianson agrees writing in his op-ed here is an excerpt. iexcerpt: joining us now to react is california congressman ro khanna. the policy laid the groundwork for this criminal illegal immigrant to kill this police officer. you understand his frustration, don't you? >> well, brine my heart goes out to mr. singh it effects my district mr. singh is indian american who served his country. many people are outraged in my district. that said, i think it's important to understand the facts. california's law went into place in 2018 the incident that the sheriff is talking about the drunk driving

arrest happened in 2014. the change in california's laws didn't effect this case the relate is we need our border agents to make sure they are enforcing the law. she shouldn't have to rely on local police officers to do that. here is what sheriff adam christianson is talking about what the government should be doing. >> why are we allowing criminal illegal aliens into this country and why is there any political interference in the first place in our ability to protect our communities and to have a communication or at least work with ice? government's number one priority is to protect its citizens. that includes border security it includes know hog is here and knowing who needs to be removed. brian: so that sheriff was w. a career in law enforcement says you guys and women lawmakers are stopping him from effectively doing his job. >> i would respectfully disagree. this is an issue of federalism. no one is saying that our

natural federal agencies can't do their job. they can enforce the law. she should enforce the law. what we are saying we shouldn't federalize local police officers and police officers. they often have to enforce the law locally and work with people homicides or domestic violence cases. they should do their job. the feds should do their job. and it really have a federalism issue. but no one is saying that people should be harbored or should interfere in a federal government's ability to execute the law. ryan brian so do you believe sanctuary states make your state safer or more dangerous? >> in our communities, i think they make it safer because those local police officers can work to solve local crimes and work with local communities. i would not condone in any way that interfering with federal enforcement immigration laws. and in this case. the oversight was that federal immigration laws were not enforced.

brian: congressman, do you also understand how sanctuary policies are magnets for those looking to get here and stay here and feel safely that they can stay here? >> i don't think that's the reason. i think people come here because this is the greatest country and they want to earn a living and they want to work and they want to have a family. anyone in the world would want to come to america. so, i don't think the issue is the issue of federalism. i think we are a nation that attracts people from around the world. obviously, we need to have border security and have reasonable policies and that's what we are debating. brian: do you also believe people should come here the right way? >> i'm the side of immigrants. brian: the right way? >> through green cards. i support immigration and i encourage people obviously to follow our process. and that's we're a nation of laws. but we need a policy that secures our border. brian: we have to go that's the heart of the debate. it's not anti-immigrant and it's not -- no one hates people from other countries.

>> i didn't say that. brian: we need to have an orderly process and right now it's chaos. congressman, we appreciate you getting up with us this morning we know it's not easy. >> thank you, brian, for having me on. brian: more "fox & friends" in a moment. that's our logo.

steve: what about the your daughter was shut down because she is your daughter? >> i think that fundamentally she was shut down for reasons that no one knows that's increasingly the issue you can shut down on major tech platforms for violating their terms of service. very worrisome issue. can you also be denied use of payment platforms like master card, visa or paypal for exactly the same reasons. steve: you talk about the anything you click when you sign up for those things. they are a private company. they can do anything they want. ultimately a lot of people look to them because it's free speech. yet it looks to some that they shut down opposing points of view. >> they can do whatever they want legally. they can't do whatever they want in the real world. you can't be a platform that purports to allow people to

express themselves creatively and supply descriptions what constitutes unacceptable content. those two things don't work out in the real world. you can't engage in practices that violate your customers' trust endlessly. so, the legal issue is relevant and the companies do have the right to do what they want. no one has the ability to do two impossible things at the same time. steve: youtube put out a statement. we looked into this following your appeal and confirmed that this was a mistake on our end. we have reinstated your video and removed the strike. so sorry for the frustration. do you think they thought it was a mistake initially? >> it's impossible to tell. that's exactly the problem. the information is provided to my daughter wasn't of sufficient detail to inform her what they had done. even in the statement you

just described. there is no indication of what happened or why the mistake was made or why they reversed their policy. we made a mistake is not something that produces a tremendous amount of trust. and it also makes you wonder would they have reversed her the mistake if she wasn't capable of putting a certain amount of pressure on them? steve: sure. and given your platform and her platform, a lot of pressure and next thing you know, sorry for your frustration. do you see this as part of something larger regarding social media platforms and ultimately free speech? >> well, there is no doubt it's part of something larger. if you go to change the terms online, you find that there are -- is a called dry ocalled dry of organizations that are left in orientation quite radically left engaged in concerted effort to force corporations to adopt their particular definition of hate speech regulation and i

can't think of anything more dangerous than letting arbitrary organizations define what constitutes hate speech. it's not a definable term. reasonable you americans have first amendment to protect what other people might consider hate speech. speech can be re rough and people can say reprehensible things. the issue is who should police it the answer isn't idiot social justice warriors and half whited corporate policies arbitrarily applied and arbitrarily removed. it's not good. it's even worse when the payment processors get involved. that is really not good. steve: jordan, are you suggesting governments should regulate these things? >> no. i'm suggesting that if you are not breaking the law your content should be allowed to remain on the internet. it's not regulated to be run by corporate entities. youtube was a place where

anybody could post any opinion. that's its value proposition. and to be subject to arbitrary -- arbitrary strikes with no explanation, with an opaque appeals process, this isn't a way to -- it can't work that way. steve: well then -- >> -- people shouldn't be concerned about it. steve: jordan, why are they doing it. >> i think they are doing it in a misguided effort to appear virtuous. we are going to regulate hate. good luck with that. good luck trying to define that. and simultaneously be a platform where people can express themselves. those two things don't work out together in the real world. now, i don't know if it's a solvable problem. i mean, i just jumped off patron, a site designed to monetize craters because they arbitrarily censored a man where they were attempting to build a parallel platform and the rule for that platform will be something like if you

don't break a law, u.s. law, then we won't knock you off our platform. but we have no idea if we can solve this problem. steve: interesting stuff. jordan peterson joining us today from toronto. jordan, thank you very much. >> you bet. good talking with you. steve: 29 minutes before the top of the hour on this thursday. mitt romney doubling down on criticism of president trump. many of his fellow republicans are telling mitt to back off. counselor to the president kellyanne conway here with reaction live coming up next. pete hegseth having breakfast with friends in indiana. we're going to check out what that booth has to say coming up ♪ making music with my friends ♪ i can't wait to get on the road again ♪ and it felt like i was me again. that's when i realized i hadn't been for three years.

>> why isn't the shutdown partially your responsibility as well. >> it has nothing to do with it. it has the president saying i will hold six agencies of

government hostage to my campaign promise that i was going to build a wall and that mexico was going to pay for it. that is so ridiculous. steve: i don't know if she answered the question. brian: kellyanne conway with us right now. she is a counselor to the president. i don't know if she has a chance to watch the interview with the future speaker of the house. steve: let's hope not. she should be watching this channel. brian: kellyanne, is it ridiculous that the president is holding the government hostage? >> >> well, the president is not. in fact, the president invited the 8 leaders from the house and the senate yesterday to the situation room for this very purpose. and he also remained here over christmas and new year's. he wants to negotiate a good deal on border security. nancy pelosi and her ilk keep calling it the wall the wall. they want it to be a four letter word. they voted for wall funding

in the past. they certainly voted for border security. all that's changed is that the border has gotten worse. of the 20,000 people who came over the border in december. customs and border patrol tell us about 4,000 were kids under the age of 5. their tender age they come here and perilous journey the president said yesterday they didn't want them to take this journey in the first place because it's dangerous. some of them are seeking medical care. some of them are hospitalized. it's not fair to them. if nancy pelosi really cared about those kids. she would have at least listened to what the secretary of homeland security, the head of customs and border patrol and the head of immigration and customs enforcement yesterday was trying to present the facts and fichings to her. they kept interrupting secretary nielsen. they don't want to hear the facts and figure. this should be a nonpartisan issue. border is everybody's business. border security is national security. i think she is really playing fast and loose with her politics here. and it's very disappointing because we need a secure

border we're a sovereign nation that needs a secure border. the fentanyl that was interdicted just last year was enough to kill every man, woman and child in this country. they are stopping the smugglers, the criminal aliens. they voted against kate's law. they voted against sanctuary cities and removing criminal aliens voted against fixing the loopholes we know the flores decision completely ties the hands of our administration in helping to return these folks back to their home countries and get them to come here illegally. the president said yesterday, fox covered it we want people to come here. but we want them to come here safely and legally. be part of the 33 million immigrants who have come here legally. steve: what have you described is, you know, as the secretary of homeland security was starting her briefing and they interrupted her, and you said they didn't want want to hear what she had to say. there is a fundamental difference between this president and those democrats, they don't see what is happening on our southern border as a crisis. >> they are now turning a blind eye to the humanitarian crisis which

includes children, tender age children under the age of 5 in need of medical care taking a perilous journey, some of them are already ill. some of them haven't seen a doctor in a while. two have died. because of this. and they are turning a blind eye to that i think you can't call it anything but raw politics because all we are trying to do is get together and say, look, we have had some great bipartisan action on criminal justice reform. on the opioid crisis on any number of measures. border security should be a nonpartisan issue that is met with bipartisan solutions. but if you are not even going to give the courtesy and the decency and dignity to presentations of facts and figures of what is happening on our southern border, we can't come up with a solution. i think this is going to cost nancy pelosi ultimately. i know she has a very left wing freshman class coming. in some of them are demanding that she not do a rules change. they are opposing her already. and then she also has a

number of freshman who just won their congressional seats in trump districts. they carry -- democrat won in districts that trump carried in 2016. so, i think whether you are nancy pelosi or mitt romney, you are going to have a problem within your own party that you are not anticipating. all you need to do is come to the table with solutions. the president invited them all back tomorrow. welcome them back tomorrow after they are literally elected leaders of the parties in congress. they can come up with hopefully a more seriousness and purpose. you can't just ignore what the secretary of homeland security is telling you about a humanitarian crisis. these kids are coming here, look, we have 65% of those who came across the border illegally tried to in december were minors or families. it used to be single males coming from mexico. this is the vast mass majority of those try to come illegally. now it's families and unaccompanied children. it's people coming here. brian: they are not mexican. >> they are not mexican coming from the northern triangle countries.

the government of mexico did a great job negotiating agreement with us to offer asylum in mexico. so, they will offer visas, work opportunities, safety, and so many of them are saying no, we are coming forward. you are putting your children at risk. please don't do that come legally and we'll help you be one of the 33 million americans who have done it the president said yesterday he wants them to come legally. they are ignoring the humanitarian crisis at the border. ainsley: common sense. so nancy pelosi's daughter she said that this about her mom. she said she will cut your head off and you won't even know you are bleeding. saying she is a tough individual. a tough cookie. she was on as we played a little bit of that clip with savanna guthrie they aired it this morning. i don't know if he, meaning president trump, knows how to deal with women in power or women of strength. we will see. let's home for the best in that regard. what's your reaction to that? >> oh, you know, mitt romney

had binders full of women president trump has senior advisors who are women. the director of the cia, cabinet secretary, senior staff here and obviously any number of members of congress and united states senators governors, who are female. i hate identity politics but who are female who the president not only listens to but tries to collaborated with in come up with solutions for this country. i think the incoming speaker, if she has the votes today, the incoming speaker to come in and say well, to really try to insult the president personally is very poor form. she is a leader in this country now. she is number three in line to the presidency. it's just poor form. whaherdaughter was on different network said nancy pelosi about to become speaker they kyroned her as a documentary filmmaker. we probably should have mention she'd also her daughter. that's okay. people behalf have figured that out. by the way, nothing really screams youth and energy

quite like the 78-year-old speaker and joe biden running for president. brian: right. kellyanne conway, what was with the poster yesterday on the table. >> that's just the president. sanctions are coming november 4th. i think the president is speaking for 95 minutes and holding forth any number of issues shows his transparency and shows he is always willing to have the press in the room. i talked to him last night after the situation room meeting, he wants to invite them back and, perhaps, even let the cameras in. they can all decide that but he has always been for transparency 55 minutes in the cabinet room last year. that's also why he wants people like mitt romney to be a team player. not being out there just giving interviews and writing opioids, come with solutions and come to washington with solutions. be part of the team. 95% of the time. so, what is this really about? and this president welcomes people who have solutions. democrats or republicans. he will have them here at the white house. but they need to listen to the director, the secretary

of homeland security, head of customs and border patrol tell us that they need border security. they need more people at the border. they need steel slats. they need a wall. they need any number of measures to help us. brian: just happen to be there or was it a message? i mean,. steve: it was a message. brian: are sanctions coming november 4th? what are they? >> i will let it speak for itself. the president maybe will be the asked about that later on. a lot was said yesterday. ainsley: looked like a movie poster. ainsley: it is what people focus on. we need border security. his first and solemn duty is to keep us safe in this country. border security is national security. we spend some billions of dollars. nancy pelosi plan is $54 billion for foreign aid the president said yesterday. we can't find 5 billion for border security. let's find it and get it together. steve: no doubt about it something has got to be done. some negotiating. maybe it will happen tomorrow. thank you very much kellyanne conway. ainsley: we heard from kellyanne conway. we want to hear from the people pete hegseth is

11 million undocumented illegal immigrants? this is the level we should be talking about, not insulting by american people saying that border security can be done through drones. ainsley: nancy pelosi and chuck schumer, they are not listening. they are not budging on this. added money for a wall. we're not doing it. closed-door meeting in the situation room. chuck schumer, you see, leans over to nancy pelosi six seconds after kirstjen nielsen starts talking. president opens up meeting. let's talk to kirstjen nielsen on video. she is in texas. she wasn't in the meeting. you can see she was up on the monitor, doing a conference. she is the homeland security secretary. he leans over to nancy pelosi. he says interrupt her, interrupt her. six seconds in. they do not want to listen. kellyanne conway said the same thing. listen. >> she and other democrats voted for secure fences. they voted for wall funding in the past. they certainly voted for border

security. all that has changed the border gotten worse. they kept interrupting secretary nielsen. they don't want to hear the facts and figures. this should be a non-partisan issue. this is everybody's business. border security is national security. steve: she is absolutely right. the border is of course's business. right now they're too far apart. one said i need wall money. the other says you're not going to get any. you have to put something else on the table. after the leadership elections in the senate and in the house, the house i would say, maybe they will come to a grand bargain, okay, mr. president, we will give you some of your wall money if you give some sort of status to the daca recipients. will that be the grand deal going forward. ainsley: it wasn't before. steve: it wasn't before. lindsey graham, senator from the great state of south carolina i hear, he said the democrats see this as their gameplan. >> the president said let's make

a deal. the democratic response is basically, go to hell. they will send a bill from the house to the senate, that has no money for the wall. it is not going to see the light of day. mitch mcconnell is never going to bring a bill on to the floor of the senate, that doesn't have money for the wall. we need the wall. only way we ever get the wall is to fight for it. brian: 2000 people coming to the border every day, every day. 65% of them are children with nobody, with no parents or families coming with their kids. we're not saying it is gangs and all drugs but even for people coming here because their countries are not as good or close as good, desperate situations there is crisis on the border, we have nowhere to put the people. 20 days you have to release them into our country. what about all the other people? aren't they good people too waiting in line, paying fees, waiting for the chance to come over here, auditions to be here in a green card system? are they not as important to

other people? i think that is wrong. you have to look at our social programs. look at people waiting to come here legally and compare it to people storming borders. it shouldn't be between good and bad, it should be immigration right and wrong. steve: you paint the perfect picture how many on the political right see it. people on political left say that wall thing it would be wasteful, expensive and it would be immoral. you see what we seen in the news last couple weeks, on new year's eve, or new year's day, chaos on the southern border where rock throwing happened, more tear gas and pepper spray. in california, suspected drunk, criminal alien was pulled over by a patrolman, a sheriff deputy in california and he was murdered. ainsley: the news this morning, the man accused of killing that

california officer name ronil singh, that man who is accused was arrested, gustavo perez arriaga. he was arrested 200 miles away from the shooting. found in a house about 200 miles away. brian: the sheriff is beside himself. no officer has been killed in the line of duty in newman yet. he knows what is going on. allowing police officers not to be police officers. washington and their immigration laws are hurting law enforcement. listen. >> law enforcement was prohibited because of sanctuary laws. that led to the encounter with officer singh. i'm suggesting that the out come could have been different if law enforcement wasn't restricted, prohibited, or had their hands tied because of political interference. ainsley: you hear someone crying

there. bless his heart. that is his brother, the officer's brother. pictures of the family. leaves behind a young child and a wife. picture with his dog. brian: he always wanted to be a cop. by the way that family came here legally. congressman kohana had a family come here legally, democrat from california. weighed n the he said laws are not the problem. >> no one is saying that our national federal agents can't do their job. they can enforce the law. they should enforce the law. what we're saying we shouldn't federalize local police officers and state officers. they often have to enforce the law locally and work with people in local communities who may be solving homicide or domestic cases. they should do their job. it is a federalism issue. no one is saying people should be harbored or should interfere in the federal post's ability to execute the law. brian: let i.c.e. to be i.c.e.

they won't let i.c.e. to be i.c.e. steve: that is his spin on it. look what is happening in california. we heard the terrible stories. we talked to so many angel families as well. where there were americans who were murdered by aliens, illegal aliens, in this country. and should have been deported but because local jurisdictions don't cooperate with the federal government, then they fall through the cracks. unfortunately, a number of americans lost their lives. ainsley: the families feel like the system failed them. brian: jillian never fails us, up until now. jillian: up until now? brian: you're not failing for us. i never tossed to an empty spot. jillian: that would be awkward. that is awkward anyway. get you caught up on number of news. i love the awkwardness, brian, to be clear. it took three tranquilizers and eight gunshots to control the lion that attacked killed an intern at a north carolina wildlife center.

good to see you. ainsley: what is your reaction to that, talking identity politics with savannah guthrie? >> i think that nancy pelosi is the one that has a problem with women in power, particularly republican and conservative women in power because she like the rest of the democrat party have a huge problem in acknowledging that women with different opinions from their own simply exist. there have been many people who made the argument, and i think it is good, that this president has actually appointed more women to senior level positions within the white house than his predecessors, includes democrats like bill clinton and barack obama. look at number of women this president has appointed, not even including now departed nikki haley. looking at elaine chao, dina powell, mercedes schlapp, heather conway, kelly sadler, all of these different women, the president, we could sit here quite some time go down the list that nancy pelosi refuses to

acknowledge which i think, ainsley, indicates she is the one with women in power, not really the president of the united states. ainsley: mitt romney, about to be sworn in as a senator for the state of utah. he wrote an op-ed in "the washington post" against the president of the united states. we've seen them shaking hands, having dinner together. the president considered him for secretary of state. many are wondering what is he doing. is he running for president? his own niece has a problem with this. she is the head of rnc. she didn't mince words and tweeted about it. and said this. >> i will act as party chair. he will act as senator. i will say to anybody in our party, our voters want you to support our president. take your bully pulpit, take your media savvy, leadership, and attack democrats because they are the ones that our party wants to see you take on. ainsley: she says she loves her uncle. they have a great relationship. she doesn't understand why he is doing this. isn't loyal to the party.

why do you think he is doing this? what is his motivations? >> ainsley, she is exactly right as well. i hope senator romney doesn't think the big problem is trump as opposed to chuck schumer or nancy pelosi. i would have loved as well would many americans see him actually focus on those individuals as his first shot out of the gate as opposed to the president. i think the president demonstrated a lot of good will. he endorsed senator romney. he had dinner with him as you mentioned. tried to foster a good relationship. i hope senator romney doesn't believe all the media accolades coming his way, means that the media that he is more palatable. this is the is same media mocked him to put an elevator in his home to help her with symptoms of ms. they made fun of him because she used horses as therapy. they went after him for his binders full of women comment, and some other things. this idea somehow that you know, it is insane. i wish he would have taken a different approach.

i wish he would have a different approach. ainsley: a lot of americans feel the same way. >> i have to make this point, ainsley. >> we don't have time, sorry. >> divide and conquer. ainsley: thank you so much. we'll be right back. get the recipes at walnuts.org.

since this caravan showed up. basically, give you a little storyline. on the 31st, late in the evening we got a heads up from contacts in mexico that 300, 350 migrants left one of the shelters. they were basically overheard trying to make a forced entry into the united states. shortly thereafter, buses started dropping people off right in that area. fairly well-lit. only 3/4 miles east of the beach, south of the border. in that area, on the mexican side they have the high ground. there is new construction. dirt berms up against the primary border fence which is the old dilapidated fence, only three or four feet high off the ground from the mexican side. so it is pretty easy to cross right there. the first time agents got rocked, they backed off a little bit, we did not engage, but as the night went on into january 1st, the group grew. it got a little bit more rowdy, if you will.

a few people did try to cross the border. when that happened, agents approached fence closer, those still in mexico, just hit them with a barrage of rocks. after that assault we did engage with less lethal munitions, chemical munitions to control the situation. brian: they put the kids in front in a lot of these cases, right? you have to watch for that. obviously you don't want to hurt everyone but they were coming at you. >> in it particular case it was a little bit safer for the migrants crossing the border as opposed to those assaulting us because of terrain difference. a unique situation where assailants were about 20 to 30 feet above and on a berm back behind the border fence in mexico. so although we were launching some of the chemical munitions over the top of some of the people right on the border fence, it did include a couple women and some children, they were not affected by the munitions at all.

it was actually a pretty good distance. we do have pretty good information though. and doing interviews the coordinators of this specific event were encouraging and actively seeking out women and children to go first as a distraction to the border patrol agents. stuart: wow. rodney, we saw these images the next day. we came back from our vacations on the 2nd. it hit us, realized we were at parties celebrating with our families. nancy pelosi is in hawaii celebrating, all the leaders celebrating with their families, we see you guys, border patrol agents, pelted with rocks, trying to protect our country, reminds us what you're doing, sacrifices we're making. we say thank you for those efforts. what do you feel when you see what is happening in washington and president's trying to negotiate, nancy pelosi and chuck schumer saying absolutely not, not giving money for what you need, what you heard border patrol agent need to stay safe?

>> so as the chief forst sector i appreciate your support and acknowledging the risks that the agents place themselves in every day. we're continuing to do our job every day. every agent out there is staying vigilant, doing his job through the holidays, through the furlough like every other day of the year. we identify our requirements, what we believe we need to secure the border with resources that we believe are the absolute minimum to control the border. and then we really just count on our elected officials to do the rest. steve: all right. rodney scott, chief border patrol agent for the san diego sector. chief, thank you very much. >> happy new year. >> a have a good day. brian: president obama commuted her sentence for leaking government secrets. chelsea manning says we shouldn't have a president at all. isn't that fascinating. steve: pete hegseth is in indiana, have being breakfast

with friend in indiana. >> we have the mayor of shelbyville all joining us. we'll talk to the people. the shutdown continues. most of them want the president to stand strong. we'll bring their voice to you on the other side. more "fox & friends." ♪

♪ ♪. >> we're in the shutdown because of the fact that the democrats are looking to 2020. they view this as an election point for them. i actually think it's bad politics but i'm not thinking about the politics. i'm thinking about what's right and what's wrong and we need a physical barrier. steve: he wants at least 5.6 billion but nancy pelosi and company won't give it to him. what do the people think about

the position the president has dug in on? ainsley: pete hegseth is asking the very question to our friends at grandma's pancake house in shelbyville, indiana. hey, pete. pete: good morning, guys, the food is fantastic. the people are great. i'm glad we're here. first day of congress. nancy pelosi will take the gavel today. we're not in washington, d.c. we're in shelbyville, indiana. we're talking to the people, their thoughts what washington should be doing. i'm here with dan, former factory worker, truck driver. what is your take? president trump wants border wall money. democrats say nothing. what do you say? >> i think everybody wants the border wall. it is very rational for themselves, democrats to put themselves between that and the people and if they want to be progressive, then be progressive and get the wall done. pete: but they don't see progressive is as a wall? >> i understand that. but that is the way i think.

i think only rational thing to do is build it and the other morning, not much of a wall, repelled 150. and, if that little wall can do that than -- pete: imagine what a real wall could actually do? >> exactly. pete: dan, thank you very much for your time. we'll move to the table, this is knuckleheads, is that fair? no, no. scott, pete, bill. army, marine corps and navy. gentlemen, thank you all for your service. we appreciate it. scott, start with you, your take on the showdown over the border wall in washington right now? >> i think it is ridiculous political posturing. i would like to see mr. trump have a news conference. showing video clips of chuck and clintons and mr. obama, saying we need the wall. pete: so the democrats were for the wall and now totally against it. why? >> political posturing. pete: political posturing. >> it is ridiculous.

the folks are tired of this. pete: folks out here are tired of watching this. do you think it should be shut down until we get money for the wall. >> on strung system is stop. pete: someone fell in the kitchen. we make sure they were okay. >> we need to spend money wisely. we'll save so much money from all the other things paying for involved in this, if we build a wall, i think it will pay for itself over a long period of time. pete: $5 billion in a trillion dollar budget. only part of the government is shut down. bill, where does it go? >> $5 billion is a counting error. it isn't about the money at all. it is just negativism of the democrats to allow trump to continue and finish what he promised he would do and what he was voted on to do to become president. he is trying to implement that agenda and, it is like, they're just trying to hold him back.

it is whatever they can do to make him fail. and they aren't going to get buy with it. he will win. pete: you think he will win. what does a win look like? a win in this scenario and shut down as it continues, what does the president need to get? >> he is getting public support from his base and the base that put him in. he continues to win that. if he backs off he will tend to lose that base. that is not good. pete: the base is with him in this fight. scott, let me ask you, nancy pelosi what do democrats stand for in border security these days? >> obstruction. nobody is winning here with the shutdown, money being spent playing these games. nobody is winning here in the end. pete: final thoughts. >> democrats need to do what is right. what is right to secure our nation and do it today. peet peet well-said. these three guys helped secure

our nation. we appreciate your time this morning. they have also eaten a lot of food. i had a little bit too, right? a few. you're at grandma's pancake house talking to the people. back to you guys. pete: you had three breakfasts. pete and folks, thank you very much. he is talking to the people, made it very clear to the president, don't walk away from the table without the wall money. ainsley: they're confident he will win. brian: 22 minutes before the top of the hour. i assume, jillian, yes is upstairs ready to give us the news. jillian: upstairs. you left me by my lonesome. very daring i would say. get caught up on the stories we're following starting with this, a 14-year-old is charged with murder after a prank leads to this deadly crash. the teen was driving his father's suv with two friends throwing eggs at other cars. one driver reportedly flash ad gun and followed them. the teen ran into a red light, slamming into a truck and killing a mother.

unclear if the driver accused of chasing the teens will be charged. kelsey manning said it is time to get rid of an american president. wasting time and money getting another single person elected president we him the office of president all together? in 2017 former president obama commuted manning's 35 year prison sentence leaking thousands of documents to wikileaks. a peterson joined us earlier to react. >> you can't be a platform that purports to allow people to express themselves creatively and also apply arbitrary descriptions of what constitutes unacceptable content. >> youtube said removal was a mistake t apologized. removed the strike and reinstated video. look at this, incredible video after paraglider swept

♪ >> good thursday morning. welcome back, quick headlines now. human sized backpacks are the latest fashion trend sweeping social media. ainsley: what? >> the oversized bags made by a japanese company weigh 3 1/2 pounds empty. the bags are perfect for camping or using alternative closet.

they cost around $240. i can't say that without laughing. that is massive. snowflakes wanted. british army making a hard pitch to millenials with posters targeting phone zombies and bing gamers, with a message, your army needs you. the campaign is finding people typically dismissed by the general public. brian is fashionista. i know he will have the backpack. brian: absolutely. i have told you over and over again. there is no proof of that, jillian or footage. 15 minutes to the tom of the hours. we change gears. democrats officially take over the house, with one unified agenda in mind to target president trump and take the white house in 2020. our next except says there is good chance dems might overplay what currently seems like a pretty good hand. jason riley, "wall street journal" and fox news contributor. you think they have a good hand with not heading senate. >> they have a good hand. they picked up 40 seats. they control the house of

representative, they will spend the next two years to impeach the president and all kinds of other things to block his agenda. brian: environmental agenda, infrastructure agenda. nothing happens if you don't stop the lockout. >> not just president trump himself they're going after. they will go after his family. they will go after his businesses. i mean i think, ivanka and jared will have emails looked at. there is a whole array of things they are going to do, even to make sure that trump can't fill those empty cabinet positions right now that he has to. they will keep him from putting his people in place. brian: when bill clinton was in trouble with monica lewinsky and paula jones, they went after clinton, his family and his behavior. he ends up with unbelievable approval ratings and coasts to rye election. >> exactly. we saw that. with obama as well. and with clinton, they suffered midterm losses. came back and won a second is term. so you can't count donald trump out yet but this house majority, this democratic house majority will make the president's life a

living hell next two years. that is what they think their job is. brian: if they think that helps them do better in 2020, not being productive, just attacking. you have in your column, the democratic hopefuls into two main category ares. some of the ones standing out, democrat ibb hopefuls for 2020. put in one category, senator warren, who says i have a exploratory committee, kamala harris in the blocks as well as cory booker and gillly brand. what category do you but them in. >> they're to the left of the country, far to the left of the country. that is where democrats could overplay their hand. yo that the country is looking for a left-wing bomb thrower to replace president trump in 2020. you look at the cast of characters there, they seem to be falling over one another trying to move as far to the left as possible. i'm not sure if i'm a democrat that i'm sure where the party wants to go to defeat in two years. brian: not many lists a group of

moderates, joe biden heads list. governor hickenlooper of colorado. mike bloomberg will get in this time. he thought about it enough. tim ryan is formidable so-called moderate force in ohio. >> right. the reason i think those names are the ones that are falling into the more moderate category, if you believe that the democrats need to win back those white working class voters in those swing states like pennsylvania and wisconsin and michigan and so forth, those are individuals who might be able to do that, or to make some ground there, whereas the people on the first list, i don't really see that happening. the other thing that trump has in his favor is that there are, were about 30 democrats who were reelected in november in republican-leaning states. and they might not want to go with this very progressive agenda that nancy pelosi puts out there, going after fossil fuels, medicare for all, that sort of thing. so may be some tension within the democratic party as well,

that could work to the president's favor. brian: jason i agree with you, an attack doesn't need a lockout, it doesn't matter. but if you have a shutdown government and have infrastructure agenda, things you want to pass, tax reform that you want to change, you can't do that with 800,000 people out of work. so i think gradually could be a republican advantage. >> it may be. some democrats out there will want to show they can govern, that they can get things done. a shutdown, get things done with an eye towards 2020, something to run on, versus we stood and obstructed president trump for two years but the base, that is what the base wants. that is what the progressives resistance wants. they believe they sent those democrats to the house simply to block president trump, not to work with him. brian: i wish people would stop running and start governing. jason rilely, thanks so much. >> happy new year. brian: great points, great column. straight made, he won best in show 23 types. and that top dog is in the green

room. you're talking about whiskey the whippett next. first bill hemmer, one of the best on his show, along with sandra smith. >> she usually wins. brian: i would give it to her too. >> good morning. what is the road map. we'll tell you live in washington. cover it all for you. nancy pelosi gets a promotion today. what will democrats accomplish? will they simply set their sights on the president? a-team is ready. join sandra and me. ten minutes away. top of the hour right here.
