meantime lay out a strategy ahead of this week's public impeachment hearings. good morning, griff. >> reporter: republicans are leaving nothing to chance. in a memo of contained by fox news from the gop staff of the three investigating committees to its members they highlight four key pieces of evidence which they show there was no treason or bribee. first, the july 25 call shows no evidence of pressure. second, ukraine president. >>presidentzelensky said there s no pressure. they say there were not aware of a hold on funds at the time of the call. and finally, the fact that president trump met the be president zelensky and aid went there. there were other transcripts released yesterday. laura cooper reveals concern over the dod withholding funds, testifying there was not an understanding of how this could

legally play out. we could see the transcript of president trump's first call in april with president zelensky, that could come as early as today. presumably that will show that the defense of the president as republicans have made will continue to be consistent. now, we're waiting to learn whether or not the democrats will allow any of the witnesses that republicans wish to call in the open laterrings, o hearings. on the list, hun hunter biden. he weighed in yesterday on that prospect. >> there is zero rational for that to happen. this isal all a diversion. this is classic trump, classic trump. focus on the problem. we have a president who is one of the most corrupt people to serve in that office. >> reporter: we'll see what today brings, heather. what's coming tomorrow is the first open hearings, that will feature bill taylor and george

kent. on friday, we'll hear from maria yoyow vonyovanovitch. heather: thank you so much, griff. the acting white house chief ofe inquiry. mick mulvaney telling a federal judge that he is with drawing his bid to join another lawsuit filed by charles cupperman. cupperman was subpoenaed by democrats but the request has since been dropped. the question now, what will the public hearings that griff was just telling us about accomplish. bill mcgern with the wall street journal says nothing, they will accomplish nothing, because democrats have made up their minds. >> look, first to put this in context, we know what the outcome of this drama is. they're going through the hearings to get to impeachment. i don't think there is any doubt once mrs. pelosi moved forward that there's going to be an

impeachment. i think there's a lot of good concerns about where the whistleblower came from and so forth and in the same way that a lot of people were angry when bill b. rbarr said i'm going to lookinti investigation, a lot of those same people don't want us to look into a whistleblower. i think this is all drama. i think it doesn't matter. at the eastbound of the day, you're -- end of the day, you're playing to the american public. you have to persuade them this is fair and principlinged going forward. heather: the house intelligence committees says the open hearings will start at 10:00 a.m. tomorrow morning with ambassador william taylor. to some extreme weather now. an arctic blast bringing bitter cold and snow to the midwest as it creeps towards the east coast of. heading this way. and then in chicago, take a look at this, this plane sliding off an icy runway.

>> no, no, no. >> i think we landed. heather: the landing gear snapped on this american airlines flight. no one was injured but the incident and the weather causing more than 1200 flight cancellations in the city. snow falling as far south as arkansas. the cold weather as we said is pushing east right now. and much more to come on that with janice dean a little bit later. but in the meantime, a major power company may be responsible for nearly 2,000 fires in california. a public record shows that pg&e may have caused on average 36 fires a month between 2014 and 2018. 31% were due to faulty equipment including 2018's camp fire, caused by a power line. pg&e, which has since declared bankruptcy, is reportedly

offering $13.5 billion to victims of fires that they caused. and some sad news here. former white house press secretary sean spicer takes a final yo bow on "dancing with te stars." ♪ why haven't i found another. ♪ a baller. ♪ someone to help me out. heather: after nine weeks, spicer finally got the boot. his argentine tango not enough to get him into the semifinals. the president showing support by tweeting this. great try by sean spicer. we're all very proud of you. does he get to keep all the costumes? that's what i wonder. he did a good job. the time now is 12 minutes after the top of the hour. a debate over daca. it heads to the supreme court today. the trump administration calls the program illegal. but how will the justices a

heather: welcome back. the long running debate over president trump's decision to end the dreamer program lands before the supreme court today. federal courts nationwide have rejected efforts to phase out the obama era program, even though the justice department called daca unlawful. so what can we expect from the higher courts? here to weigh in is constitutional law attorney ken

bellkin. let's begin first with the doj and their legal brief to the supreme court. here's what they said amongst other things. dhs correctly and responsible econ cloudey concluded that da. >> it is within the dhs' purview to render a decision like that and the doj can say they take the position that that position is a lawful one. cases were brought in three federal district courts in new york, san francisco and washington, d.c. and they deemed that this action by the administration was arbitrary and capricious and the supreme court will have to have the final say. heather: here's what mexico is urging, they're urging the supreme court to stop president trump's daca decision, saying amongst other things mexican nationals relied upon the commitments made by the u.s. government in relation to daca. daca recipients would be subject to increased vulnerability as a

result of the termination. >> the nation of mee mexico ist a party here. they are letting the court know their position and they are potentially an interested party in any decision the court makes. the fact of the matter is, mexico has another interest that they may not have included so prevalently in the brief, is that a lot of money is flowing from the united states to mexican nationals, back into the economy of mexico. so they're kind of dependent on our immigration system. heather: that's a good point. they say everything always goes back to money. it's not supposed to be the case for the supreme court. what do you think they will do? >> i think the problem is, the trump administration faces a problem. there was a ruling in the census case that liberals will try to expand upon where justice john roberts said look, there has to be reasoned decision making. they say that is an expanded of burden of proof. normally they look at the government action, is it arbitrary and capricious.

rolling back certain immigration forms during a time when we have a legitimate immigration crisis in this country, you have to acknowledge that, so it's not arbitrary. heather: they'll take that into account as well. president trump is expected to release his transcript of his first what's being called tantalizing zelensky phone call with ukraine, is what we're saying. how will this impact the impeachment hearings moving forward. >> the left -- you're talking to someone who has never voted for a republican in his life. the left has to face the fact there was no smoking gun in the first transcript. >>, the secondcall, no evidenceh crime of misdemeanor. that's what's needed to impeach here. heather: we'll see what happens when the transcript is released today and the open hearings will begin tomorrow. will be a busy week ahead. the time now, 19 minutes after

>> it seems very seedy to me. heather: let's talk about uva, they canceled a 21 gun salute which they always do on veterans day. >> they did it because they were concerned that the sound of guns would panic students. you uva's president said it would be disruptive to classes. unfortunately with gun violence in the u.s., there was some concern we would cause a panic if someone heard gunshots on school grounds. a lot of people are taking issue with this. we're going to get to one facebook comments from linda who says this is to the uva president, you say you are the son of a military man yet you don't grasp the significance or respect of the 21 gun salute of. the school still holds a 24 hour vigil on veterans day but a lot of people are saying this is taking away american culture, the betsy ross flag has white supremacist ties, now the 21 gun salute sparks gun violence

over robert levinson, who has been missing in iran for 12 years, it would be a very positive step, at the same time upon information and belief, iran is and has beene been enrig uranium, that would be a bad step. president trump's involvement, mentioning your dad, what does that mean for you? >> it's very big for us. we're very encouraged. it shows the trump administration is determined to get my father home, the president tweeting about it, the world is watching his tweets. we know it's a big deal. we've been working with the trump administration officials for years now, the new national security advisor, robert o'brien has been wonderful. he was the previous special envoy for hostage affairs and we worked closely with him for a year and-a-half and now he's at the right hand of president trump. secretary pompeo has cared about my dad's case for years. we're very encouraged and we believe that the trump administration is doing everything they can to get my dad home. heather: offering a $20 million

bloomberg would be better than president trump. the foreller -- former mayor has not officially announced his candidacy. and now some business news. disney plus has officially launched. the new streaming service is now live and putting some pressure on some of those other companies like netflix. tracee carrasco from our sister network, fox business, has a closer look at what is available and perhaps more importantly, what it will cost. >> disney's highly anticipated streaming service, disney plus, finally debuted today. this is disney's big entry in the streamings business, this comes one week after apple introduced apple tv plus to compete with the growing list of other streaming services, netflix, amazon, cbs all access, nbc universal, the list goes on and on of. one thing disney has in its favor, its extensive catalog of shows, r marvel and pixar films,

animated classics, dol documents and original content. it will be the exclusive home of the simpsons which it acquired from 21st century fox and you'll also find avatar and avengers end game. the cost, $6.99 a month, which is about half of what netflix charges for its standard most popular plan. you'll be able to bundle disney plus with disney's other streaming services, hulu and espn plus for $12.99 a month. so heather, how many is as to many? a recent study by deloitte shows nearly half, 47% of all americans say that they're frustrated with the growing number of subscriptions. heather: on the other hand, more competition could mean lower prices. thank you so much, tracee. the new documentary, have you heard about it, called no safe spaces and it premiers in hollywood. >> a protest has turned violent
