donald trump replied it is my honor to accept. we have a great story to tell and great goals to achieve. i look forward to seeing you on the fifth. congressional negotiators begin their work to hash out a deal to avoid another shutdown, senate minority leader chuck schumer is urging the president to let congress do its work. >> when the president injects maximalist partisan demands into the process, negotiations tend to fall apart. the president should allow the conference committee to proceed with good faith negotiations. >> reporter: the president will need to sign off on any deal and sarah sanders says if congress can't reach a deal that does that, the president is not ruling out another partial shutdown to do it. >> the president doesn't want to go through another shutdown. that is not the goal. the goal is border security. i'm not going to get into

hypotheticals of taking that off the table but i do know the president is committed to fixing the problem. >> reporter: with congressional negotiators hammering out a deal the president is expected to make border security one of the topics of the state of the union address one week from today. rob: thank you so much. house democrats setting sites on the pentagon deploying troops to the border. the armed services committee, during their first hearing under democratic control, donald trump originally sent the troops as a migrant caravan closed in on the us-mexico border. democrats slammed that move as a scare tactic. 3-year-old girl falls off a ladder while trying to scale a border fence. this video showing the child dropping 16 feet to the ground into arizona. border patrol since she was traveling with mom and dozens of migrants from guatemala after

the good news is it won't be long-lived. we will see temperatures moderate into the weekend but for now incredibly cold, wind chill temperatures, what it feels like if you are not protected, these are temperatures, you can't be outside, closures in the northern plains and upper midwest. it gets worse than that. the forecast wind chill as we go through time, today through overnight on wednesday-53 is what will feel like in my fargo-48 in minneapolis, we have are around-30-40-50 ° mark until thursday and things moderate. we will get cold temperatures towards the northeast, not as cold as minneapolis with the overnight low thursday at-31. that is the air temperature, dangerously cold, potentially deadly cold which is why people are taking precautions.

listen to your local officials as well. the arctic cold front reached as far south as the deep south and the gulf coast, we have winter weather advisories for places that don't know how to deal with snow and ice on the roadways. that is a big story as well heading into later today into the overnight tonight and there is your forecast today. also want to focus on the fact that down south we have snow and ice, the headline will be the extreme historic cold. really incredible. we are talking 2019 as the coldest on record ever. rob: unbelievable, we will keep an eye on it. 11 minutes after the outcome of the clock is ticking on negotiations for border security, what will it take for lawmakers to agree on a funding deal by the february 15th deadline? we will ask michael burgess coming up. jillian: a teacher met with protests when reciting the pledge of allegiance, one group ramping up their fight, we are coming back.

..

carley: lawmakers have two weeks to make a deal on the border. and with another shutdown limning the president says he is not backing down on the wall. jillian: here is texas congressman michael burgess. appreciate your time. do you think the president is going to get the $5.7 billion he's asking for? >> i do think so one way or the other. i doubt it will be a crisp process over the next 21/2 weeks. i have never seen anything like the way the democratic leadership, the speaker, are dug in on the concept of open borders, yet they have never been what you call security

hawks on the border but it is a different mindset as we get into this term and the requirement, the request, the demand on their side for open borders is unlike anything i have ever seen and it does bother me. the president is correct in saying we've got to provide security for our people, i appreciate how in texas the president has our back on that, this will be a tough fight. at the end of the day there is that emergency declaration and i suppose it could come to that. it rob: a lot of people are dug in on this. it is not about the money. it is about the optics of allowing the president to win. you start to think they should give the money to the people that know what to do with it and that those agents and the people given the task of securing the border secure the border in the way they best know how. >> that was the fine print of what was decided on friday.

we will listen to the experts. nancy pelosi came to the white house, secretary of homeland security was there to make a presentation and she said we don't want to hear it, not interested in what you have to say. that is the mindset when you walk into the negotiation, i am pessimistic that things will change but perhaps, perhaps there can be, as you say there were more dollars that were not well spent during the appropriations lapse we just came through and do the arithmetic, it would have been just as reasonable to provide the president the money at the same time he might have gotten border security and that would have been a good thing. >> couple lists showing representatives negotiating border security as well as senators negotiating for border security and democrats on both these lists and as we look at that, i'm curious if you think it will be enough to get this

done before the deadline or are we facing the reality of another partial government shutdown? what do you think? >> you are facing that reality, the president has been clear this was not an open-ended invitation to debate this endlessly, there was a 3-week timeframe he laid out last friday and there were no agreement, and appropriations lapse with them occur and the other tool in the toolbox for the president is declaration of an emergency situation on the border which i think he would be within his rights to use. i don't see us going into another lapse. i think the president would take that action but this situation becomes difficult to prophesies. rob: the paul has interesting results a lot of people didn't see coming. this is a swing district poll for democrats from fox news asking if you support the president's border security stance, 61% say they do, 35% say they don't and another 53% say

they do, 40% do not. the message has been not as many people are for the wall as against it but what we see with this shutdown is nancy pelosi got hit hard in her favorability as well. does this bring them to the table? >> this is a public opinion strategy paul, not fox news. >> no one in the government likes and appropriations lapse. i was involved in 3 of them and on the other side no one looks good. no one appears statesmanlike so that is not surprising. people have a front door lock for a reason, they want to be safe in their own homes.

truly america at its best, thousands of strangers lining up in texas to pay their respects to a veteran. rob: carly shimkus here with the online reaction. >> reporter: thousands of people in texas attended the funeral of a total stranger yesterday. air force veteran joseph walker died on november 19th but after his death the cemetery couldn't locate his family. that is when the central texas cemetery posted an appeal on facebook and it got so much attention texas senator ted cruz chimed in and promoted the fact the cemetery wanted people to attend because if they didn't nobody else would be there. the line to get into the cemetery wound up a mile-long including 5000, to 6000 cars and on social media of a lot of comments about this heartwarming gesture. one person calling it is truly touching story where people put

aside differences to honor a fallen soldier and another person instagram shining in saying a selfless act of love and kindness, outstanding job buyout, god bless our military and veterans. a lot of heartwarming reaction and one of the organizers behind the show of support, the president of the wind therapy freedom riders on "fox and friends" at 6:20 this morning eastern time. tune in for more. rob: a lifelong democrat, once a hero of the left is public enemy number one. >> that is probably how he felt that his first book tour event in new york, talking former starbucks ceo howard shultz. listen to this heckler ripping him apart over his potential presidential aspirations. watch. >> i am seriously considering running for president as a centrist independent.

>> that will help elect trump, you egotistical billionaire [bleep] >> should he run for office? that is the question. social media filled with responses. marks is give to a charity, do something good with the money, wasting it on a failed presidential bid, the heckler in the video is exactly right. a person chimes in 20 people running for president but this guy is the spoiler. andrew says it is a waste of time because in the united states a third-party candidate is worthless. a lot of democrats clearly don't want him to run. jillian: alexandria ocasio-cortez has tips for success. >> she shares that with her 2 million instagram followers, the key to success is a matching pajama set. watch.

>> what does not get talked about is having a lounge uniform of sorts, that may seem strange, but truly, having work/life balance is critical to mental health. >> she shared her skin care routine and goat milk is her favorite non-dairy substitute. keeping it light on instagram. rob: she was a bartender two years ago. >> he is a relatable girl. rob: a heck of a run. thanks a lot. 28 minutes after the hour. roger stone remains defiant as he prepares to head to court for the special counsel lapse charges. following this from the beginning, he tells us what the indictment means for the investigation next. >> kamala harris's first townhall is a candidate. we will tell you coming up, stay tuned. my gums are irritated. i don't have to worry about that, do i?

jillian: a look at the top headlines we are following this morning and a fox news alert. five police officers are hurt when a drug raid turns into a shootout, the suspect opening fire in houston police officers as they try to serve a search warrant, three cops were shot, two in critical condition. a fifth officer was hurt but not shot. >> donald trump will deliver the state of the union address one week from today after accepting an invitation from nancy pelosi, writing, quote, it is my honor to accept, we have a great story to tell and great goals to achieve. manual address was scheduled for tonight, nancy pelosi asked the president to postpone due to security concerns from the shutdown. >> roger stone, long-term advisor to donald trump will be

arraigned in washington on 7 charges, the special counsel accusing him of lying to congress, obstruction and witness tampering in the russia probe. stone says he's innocent and there is no collusion. >> there is no russian collusion. i had no collaboration with wikileaks, i'm not charged with conspiracy. if they would have made the case they would have but they want to silence me because i stand up for donald trump. that is what this is about. >> what does this mean for the russia probe? >> joining us is tom fitton, president of judicial watch, this is another one being picked off. what do we have here? >> in my view, prosecution that i don't think the justice department would have brought but for the mueller special counsel operation which is geared at trying to destroy and harass donald trump. mister stone is going to have a

credible argument, that he didn't do what was suggested in the indictment. whether he's guilty or not i don't know but i don't think americans should trust the special counsel operation to dispassionately analyze the evidence of what stone did. it is a terrible situation and mister stone is in the duck because of his relationship with donald trump, not anything inappropriate he may or may not have done. >> let's look at charges against roger stone including one count of obstruction of an official, 5 counts of false statements, one count of witness tampering and acting ag matt whitaker with what he had to say. >> the investigation is close to being completed and i hope we can get the report as soon as possible. >> close to being completed.

a lot of people waiting for this to be over and be wrapped up. what do you make of this? >> more of a wish than a report. i don't see this investigation as being soon enough but as mister stone highlighted there is no russia collusion, there should be no special counsel as it is and if i were the president i would be demanding it be shutdown administratively, move into court and try to deal with it himself. rob: obviously nobody knows when it will end, judge andrew napolitano said another year, adam schiff was enraged that comment was made by matt whitaker. let's get back to the connection

between this guy and wikileaks and russia. wikileaks and russia are connected, roger stone and wiki leaks connected, there is a connection there. people that disagree with you would say that is a pretty big connection. >> the 6 ° of kevin bacon approach. rob: that is 2 °. >> the point is because you talk to someone who may or may not have talked to the russians, there is no evidence anyone knowingly colluded with the russians to steal emails out of the dnc which is the core fake allegation of the dossier, and its advocates. mrs. clinton's campaign according to this indictment was in communication with the wikileaks crew and pressuring them on their emails were. were they only with the russians? may be under this theory but the difference is no one asked mrs.

clinton or her campaign about their communication with russians under oath in order to pursue in my view trump to perjury charges against -- the difference to me, the worst corruption in the justice department in modern times, targeting trump and his team, frankly mister trump should consider pardons for most of the americans caught up in this. heather: back to the theory you're supposed to find a crime and then investigate, this is the opposite effect. >> this report, why are we going to let mueller write a report if he is not inviting anyone in the white house or donald trump, not in the cards? we are going to have another dossier targeting donald trump, that report, rather than publicizing it, we ought to talk about whether he should be

writing the report to begin with under our constitutional system. rob: you make some good points, we appreciate it. 37 after the hour. progressives calling for tax hikes on the wealthy. >> sometimes you see tax rates as high as 60% or 70%. >> for rich people on the ultra millionaire tax. rob: what message does this send the next generation of innovators? is that message on american? jillian: a dad, his son and a trampoline. what could possibly go wrong? ♪ thriller ♪ thriller of the night ♪ no one's going to save you from the beast about to bite ♪ thriller ♪ thriller that's why it should always be an idaho potato. only genuine idaho potatoes have the

presidential candidate kamala harris defended her criminal justice record after liberals criticize her for being tough on crime, enforcing the difficulty, she claimed was her duty as attorney general to do so. the democratic senator tells the crowd at an iowa townhall she is a firm know for a border barrier. >> i'm not going to vote for a wall under any circumstances and i do support border security and if we want to talk about that, let's do that and talk about what really accomplishes border security. jillian: passing a middle-class tax cut would be her first act as president. rob: the far left appears to vilify the rich calling a system that allows billionaires in more than telling americans the wealthy should be paying far more. >> when you get to the to be top, and on your 10 millionth dollar you see tax rates as high as 60 or 70%.

>> for rich people on the ultra millionaire text. >> 45% of republicans said they believe the idea of that kind of top marginal tax rate was a good idea so i believe we should increase it. rob: is it fair to target people already paying for the lions share of the bills in this country? here to debate that is adam shell and antoine seawright. what do you make of this rhetoric about let's get those rich guys? >> i don't think it is rhetoric, the goal is two things, to ensure those who make the most pay their fair share to uncle sam. the other thing -- rob: define fair share. >> let me give you an example. warren buffett, in -- obama's

second reelection, declared he pays more in taxes -- his assistant pays more in taxes than he does. that doesn't make sense. what reasonable people are trying to do, not necessarily the extreme left, make sure those who make the most pay the most and at the same time make sure tax relief for middle-class working people carry their fair share of the burden in this country. rob: your response? >> you won't here that this is a plan to tax the rich, tax the ultra wealthy. the history of almost all taxes bears out you first raise taxes or at a new tax to rich people and then it expands to everyone else, this is the history of the income tax, started as a tax on the ultra wealthy and viewers today, for coming up with tax season, no way to fund the

left's agenda was just taxes on the rich. there have to be taxes on every single american. >> you run every cycle the taxes are bad and want to cut taxes and they get into situations like we had in kansas and cut to the bare-bones of the government, democrats and republicans agree our tax system is broken and needs to be fixed. what you guys advocate for there is nothing wrong with our tax system and no one can argue that if you make more you should pay more. heather: let's look at these plans. alexandria ocasio-cortez's plan is marginal tax rate around 70% on income above $10 million. that doesn't seem to be too dramatic, the problem is she wants to pay for all the things she wants, that is nowhere near enough money to pay for any of it. you have to bring that 70% rate to a much lower pay scale.

elizabeth warren, 2%, $50 million, 2% of that every year and 3% if you are worth over $1 million, that will generate a lot of money. look at a poll here, fox news poll shows a lot of people are in favor of taxes on the wealthy. what we know is every time you raise taxes you hobble an economy and we learn from ronald reagan the economy explodes and we are learning under donald trump. >> wasn't just in the 80s when we lowered taxes but before that in the 60s under kennedy and before that in the 20s those top tax rates in the 70% range were lower, each time those tax rates came down, the longest economic expansions in our history, the history bears out tax cuts do help the economy and anything that goes in the opposite

direction will hobble the economy and make it harder to get higher wages and job creators -- griff: how do you argue that point? >> i disagree with 70% of the people that say the wealthy pay their fair share, any proposal, taxes, healthcare, whatever it is starts one way but evolves over time and that is what bothers me about the rhetoric of your friends. it is not how you start out but how you finish. we all agree we need to reform our tax system to make sure the middle class does not feel the burden. rob: i got to let you go, thank you so much. jillian: 47 after the hour, the us and taliban and reaching the tentative peace deal. is this the beginning of the end of america's longest war? general anthony tata joins us live. rob: what is coming up on "fox and friends" back from the

rob: peace talks in the un and taliban taking a leap forward. cutting a deal could potentially end our longest door but it would have to ensure terror groups would not be allowed to rise up and operate within their borders if the with bullets troops out. >> how can we guarantee the taliban will honor the agreement? the deputy commanding general of us forces in afghanistan and author of dark winter general anthony tata. appreciate it. what do you make of the deal and this will be a good thing? >> it is like petting a shark so we have to be careful and it is a good thing the taliban wants to be at the table.

history is important, a strategic opening, we need to leave, donald trump wants to leave. we have to look at the history of the taliban. when 9/11 occurred the taliban was in power in afghanistan and they were hosting al qaeda. allowing them to plan the 9/11 attacks and after that with significant response and continuing war but through the taliban out of power, mullah omar blamed al qaeda and other foreign fighters so it is important to note the taliban fight isis and they fight al qaeda in afghanistan and their big, quote, concession is they will not allow foreign fighters in the country after we agreed to leave and that is the alleged concession, really not there concession and when we leave as we face out there is god to be a

private military force involved in afghanistan with the afghan national police because the taliban will drive back to power. it is a little nuanced, like al qaeda and isis, will not come back in according to the taliban, the real fight will be between the taliban and the afghan national army, we will see how that plays out. rob: there's not a lot of support for the president as he tries to diminish our presence in the middle east, guys like rand paul make sense when they say are we ready to be somewhere forever? to take on a war that never ends? >> exactly right, the president's instincts are very good on this and this is a

strategic opening to exit afghanistan with proper negotiation. the taliban and afghan national army want to duke it out in a civil war, that is really none of our business as long as they are not hosting foreign fighters, the issue for us was to expel foreign fighters and prevent planting of terrorist acts against the united states. shannon: thank you for joining us, we are coming right back, stay there. are you filming? at booking.com, we can't guarantee you'll be any good at that water jet thingy... but we can guarantee the best price on a hotel, like this one. or any home, boat, treehouse, yurt, whatever. get the best price on homes, hotels and so much more. booking.com, booking.yeah welcome to fowler, indiana.
