they are in the a week with us. let's begin with what happens overnight. donald trump ahead of tomorrow's governor's race in louisiana. >> i'm thrilled to be back in the by state with thousands of hard-working american citizens who believe in god, family and country. we send a message to the corrupt democrats in washington, got to vote on saturday. >> todd pyro joins us outside café usa with the night's biggest moments. >> reporter: good morning. the goal of the rally was to stump but put the president in a crowd of fervent supporters on the day or on a day of impeachment hearings and you get this. >> first it was the russia hoax. then it was the mueller witchhunt.

the absolutely crazed lunatics, the democrats radical left are pushing the deranged impeachment witchhunts. we did nothing wrong and they are doing nothing. >> that line of the nuclear dig at congress and the failure of the democrat-controlled house to pass significant legislation, any significant legislation while focusing instead on impeachment. one congressman in particular feeling the president's wrath was hoping to be the impeachment inquiry, adam schiff. >> adam schiff made up my statement. it was horrible what he said. he is a thief, he is a and he's a corrupt politician and he should be prosecuted. >> reporter: donald trump did get to riskone hoping to flip this iran which polls say is a net in that race with incumbent democrat john bell edwards.

>> a chance to elect a true louisiana champion, a real success. got to get out. pro family, pro life, pro-second amendment, 100% pro-american. >> reporter: election day in louisiana is on saturday, tomorrow. check this out. we are at café usa talking to voters about the rally in the race and all good things american. heather: of red, white and blue behind you. donald trump slams the impeachment inquiry, hearing center a second day and just hours from now, ambassador

yavanovitch will take the stand. griff jenkins has more in the office building with a preview. another day. >> reporter: another day. a second day of history, the former ukrainian ambassador as she said in her deposition she felt, quote, threatened by donald trump and she believes the president's personal attorney rudy giuliani was running a smear campaign against her. she became quite emotional in her closed-door deposition, the press hoping to see the same emotion today in the public hearing. we can't say, the format will start at 9:00 am and the swearing-in as before and the 45 minute process where the majority gets 45 minutes in the minority gets 45 minutes and 13 democrats and 9 republicans get 5 minutes each, this as nancy

pelosi is openly calling what donald trump is on bribery and comparing it to watergate. >> the bribe is to grant or withhold military assistance in return for a public statement of a fake investigation into the elections. the cover-up makes what nixon did look almost small. >> reporter: republicans pushing against the chairman of the intelligence committee, adam schiff. kevin mccarthy, house minority leader blasting him. >> adam schiff, i do not think adam schiff is fit to be in the position of running the intel committee and that is only a decision by one person who can put him in there and i think adam schiff has spent his entire time in congress trying to impeach him. >> there is one closed-door

deposition, david holmes, ambassador bill taylor, we went on wednesday overheard a conversation between donald trump and ambassador sondland where sondland believed the investigation was a top priority for donald trump. we will see what that produces but a more open public hearing next week. shannon: we will see what happens today. we will all be watching. still developing, this horrible story. a devastating community gathering for a vigil hours after a deadly high school shooting. a teenager accused of killing two people and injuring three more on his birthday. the shooting lasting 16 seconds in southern california. >> this happened in my community. >> why did this happen here? everyone was running, fear. >> don't know why he would do this. shannon: the 60-year-old suspect

shot himself in the head and is now hospitalized in critical condition was a motive still unknown. class is canceled today. a judge rejecting written testimony from an illegal immigrant accused of killing molly tibbetts. christian ramirez's attorney wanted to summit a written affidavit to avoid putting him on the stand in iowa. the judge also heard arguments whether his confession can be used as evidence, the defense claims police did not read rivera his miranda rights properly. tibbetts vanished last year after going for a run. police say rivera led them to her body. duval patrick supports the direction the democratic party is moving in. >> i love the party has moved to the left. i love that we are the party of the woke. i believe we have to be the

party of the still waking. i have always conducted my personal life and business life and my life as a civil rights lawyer and an advocate and as a mediator and as a governor that way. shannon: trying to come up with those memorable lines, he added his name to the primary ballot in new hampshire. patrick will have to wait before going head the head with his rival candidates. he does not meet qualifications for the next democratic debate. the dnc announcing the ten candidates who will take the stage next wednesday in atlanta. frontrunners joe biden versus elizabeth warren and bernie sanders will be there with cory booker, pete buttigieg, kamala harris and amy klobuchar, tom stier and andrew yang. let's talk about thursday night football. did you see this, and explosive end to the browns steelers game, after a sideline clearing brawl

turned violent. >> one of the worst things i have ever seen. >> brown defense of lineman mile garrett ripping off and hitting steelers quarterback mason rudolph on the head with his own helmet. garrett almost certainly facing a suspension, he retaliated, kicking garrett in the head was the browns won 21-7. the time is 10 minutes after the top of the hour. former obama official george kent said he raised red flags about joe biden's role in ukraine but nothing was done. >> my concern to the office of vice president -- >> you would have to ask people who work in the office of vice president during 2015. shannon: doug burns said there

are major issues with biden's visit and he joins us live to explain. the adorable cat catching the injured's i. chevy silverado hd. it offers head-up display. wow, that's dialed in. i can still keep my eyes on the road. my truck doesn't have that. it offers an optional technology package with up to 15 different camera views. that's quality picture. it even offers one enhanced view that makes your trailer appear invisible - to help you see what's behind you. oh, wow! which in this case happens to be the competition - since they don't offer the same amount of cameras as the silverado. literally in the rear-view. where they should be. ♪

>> i reported my concern to the office of the vice president. >> he would have to ask people who worked in the office of vice president during 2015. my concern was the possibility of perception. shannon: there was george kent testifying he raised questions over hunter biden's burisma involvement but nothing was done and that statement raising questions, joe biden's so-called critical role in the obama administration's policy in ukraine. here is former federal prosecutor doug burns. thank you for joining us.

we were talking about joe biden's involvement in ukraine policy. between july 2009 all the way to january 2017, he visited ukraine six times. >> you hear people complaining about double standards. i am not a political analyst but it does appear there is quite a bit of a double standard for a number of reasons. that infamous tape where he said we will withhold money. how ironic is that? unless something happens and that's loft off and no one wants to talk about it. it is so interesting, you see

things written, let me get this straight. you want to impeach the president for something that the other person appears to have also done. shannon: used the words instead of putting meaning behind it. >> the problem for the democrats, the impeachment track, and the problem is you misjudge the way the jury is reacting to things and if the american public is reacting, it seems he did the same thing. >> in this case it may not be a criminal trial. >> not to be a broken record, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. without pre-judging everything.

and throwing that term around. it starts with bribery and throw around extortion and bribery. somebody serves in doj and charge this person with bribery. shannon: and back to joe biden's son and the board of burisma, no prior experience. and in ukraine, the people who owned the company, at that

point, - >> even so and so said you are spot on when you point out this diplomatic kent in the testimony the other day saying i thought it was a conflict of interest. the point is you can take all the spin and it is pretty funny, there is no evidence whatsoever of impropriety and this has been debunked. amazing the way they throw these 1-liners around when the fact is the jury might be saying is that appropriate for the vice president in charge of ukraine, and -- >> at of shift tried to blow it up. let's talk about marie yavanovitch, appointed by president obama in 2016. what will we learn from her? >> not surprisingly you have two storylines, one storyline they

perceived would help them. there was this concerted effort to undermine etc. but the right talking point which is legitimate legally, individual serve at the pleasure of the president, can be recalled any time for any reason. that is their mantra. the converse mantra, the left immediately says about certain points that is a right-wing talking point, that is a wild conspiracy theory but the reality is a lot of them aren't. shannon: allegations she assisted in investigating manafort and the steel dossier. >> interference by ukraine in the 2016 election to positively help democrats is not just a right-wing talking point or wild

conspiracy theory. there is some validity to that and you can see that and the relationship with prosecutors. shannon: a lot of people have been waiting for that. we will see how long it lasts. thank you for joining us. great insight and we will be right back, stay with us. these folks don't have time to go to the post office

they use stamps.com all the services of the post office only cheaper get a 4-week trial plus postage and a digital scale go to stamps.com/tv and never go to the post office again.

>> senator ben sachs demanding answers about the death of jeffrey epstein in a warning letter to the bureau of prisons director the senate hearing next week. to pretend like this issue won't be a significant focus of attention at this hearing is naïve to the point of being laughable.

there may be particular details, and difficult questions won't cut it. epstein was found dead in his jail cell while awaiting trial, sex trafficking charges. a member of the democratic squad calls to the criminal justice system, massachusetts congresswoman iona presley proposing new legislation including banning life sentences. giving prisoners the right to vote, guaranteeing inmates minimum wage and allowing transgender inmates to choose their own prisons. it is time for a bold people centered vision for the car separation and justice in america. representative steve scalise calling out alexandria ocasio cortez on twitter for a statement she made in a cnn interview. listen to this.

>> this ukrainian allegation brings the carcass together, we have to run with however we unify the house. this is not just about something that has occurred but preventing a disastrous outcome from occurring next year. shannon: carly shimkus with serious xm 115 here with how it all went down online. carley: is this about preventing abuses of power or the 2000 for the election? steve scalise wade in the saying congresswoman ocasio cortez admits democrats are using impeachment, take her at her word, quote, this is about preventing a potentially disastrous outcome from occurring next year. make no mistake this is about power for democrats, nothing else. ocasio cortez responded saying the only way you can prove this is if you thought foreign

interference was trump's mean strategy to win in 2020, letting our elections be subverted by hostile actors is disastrous. why is the gop blocking election protection measures from the senate? she says her comments were all about election interference. other people have their take and are saying on social media you can't beat trump in a fair election so you have to resort to this soft coup that started the day he was elected. it is discussing what the democrats have become. sean tweeting you literally admitted the main reason for impeachment is to prevent a disastrous outcome for the 2020 election if you can't beat him, impeach him. nancy pelosi made news because she said impeachment wasn't about politics, it is about patriotism which sounds nice but when you think of how this has shaken out i don't think many people would agree with that. shannon: as these hearings continue, 15 minutes apparently up for this particular person.

>> this lawyer's star rose while ripping stormy daniels but fell after he was accused of trying to extort millions from nike in 2019. name quickly forgotten. michael avenatti. >> i knew that one. michael avenatti responded to this on twitter, he tweeting then after, jane father, gerald ford, pulp fiction, 24 hours, what are answers he didn't know on jeopardy? one producer says the sets haven't forgotten. you know your 15 minutes are up when the tournament champion contestants can't guess michael avenatti's name on jeopardy. first time his name has been mentioned in a while, have times changed. shannon: he is not letting go. a lot of people talking about

this cat that is going viral. carley: a cat with a unique stair going viral on social media. his name is potato, 38,000 followers on instagram. is owner ashley calls in a cast model, entrepreneur, social media loves them, stephanie says i love him, he is quirky and cute, lovely eyes. heather: definition of cat eyes. carley: the way he runs is huge. heather: it is 28 minutes after the top of the hour. former massachusetts governor duval patrick throwing his hat into the 2020 race. >> i admire and respect the candidates but the character of candidates is an issue in every election. this time it is about the character of the country. heather: he is being crowned the

next obama. what does this mean for joe biden? we will debate that next.

heather: the isis bride who begged to return to the us must stay in a searing refugee camp. a federal judge dismissed her lawsuit, that she is no longer an american citizen. it back aishah hasnie is live with us in studio as her family battles to bring her home. >> reporter: they are fighting, the judge said she's not a us citizen because her father was considered a diplomat when she was born here. the isis bride is an refugee camp in syria with her 2-year-old son. she dropped out of college and

left her alabama home to travel to syria after being radicalized by isis online. he permitted the terror group's ideology calling on muslims to commit drive-by shootings on americans. when she sat down with fox news in april she told us that was all a big mistake. >> i just got into -- when i started i was very -- >> reporter: her remorse did not help her case. her father was a yemeni diplomat, he had been fired by the time she was born. children of diplomats do not get automatic citizenship. the judge also warned her father and family that any financial support they send her will be considered supporting terrorism. her family will likely appeal this.

there lawyer responding by saying we are disappointed with and disagree with the court's ruling, this is not the end of our client's legal options. we will wait for the written opinion and will evaluate available options at that time. secretary of state mike pompeo has double down on this decision vowing she will not be allowed to step back on us soil. heather: thank you. in the meantime, fox news alert, isis wants loan will terrorists to pose as journalists to assassinate world leaders. according to the daily mail the terror group put out a guide with instructions including disguising an explosive as a camera. earlier the group released as propaganda picture showing a terrorist standing over an image of donald trump. this happening just weeks after the group's leader abu bakr al-baghdadi was killed.

the israeli military says the strikes were in response to rockets being launched from gaza after a cease-fire. israel releasing video showing those rockets be intercepted. the strikes creating uncertainty over whether the cease-fire brokered earlier this week will hold. 30 people have been killed so far. the mainstream media crowning former massachusetts governor duval patrick as the next obama just one day into his candidacy. >> the reason he was going to run can be summed up in two words, barack obama. >> duval patrick is close to the obama wing of the party. >> what about the obama factor? do you see himself positioning himself as obama 2.0? heather: what this means for joe biden. here is richard fowler and gop strategist, thank you for joining us this morning, we

appreciate it. i will start with you. what do you think about duval patrick jumping in? >> very interesting. we are 60 or 70 days from the iowa caucuses new hampshire primary. will he take away from joe biden's lead? they will say no. the only campaign in this race that has a natural coalition of voters, what was the obama coalition, now to the finish line and eventually makes joe biden nominee. duval patrick's calculation, a lot of voters are undecided, looking for a candidate who can speak to what america should be and i'm a candidate who can do that. there are arguments we had so this is an interesting race for the governor of massachusetts but he has a short runway to get it done. he won't be in the november

debate next week or the december debate. he has to give his message to the american people to make this an uphill battle. heather: duval patrick seems to think that perhaps there are some democrats still not satisfied with their choices but according to this fox news poll 69% say they are satisfied with her choice, only 28% saying they wish there were other options. is too little too late since as we mentioned he can enter next week's debate? >> difficult to see. we have seen how polls have been misleading, they are a snapshot in time. governor patrick has had these advantages of not having to weigh in, president obama's appeal was he didn't have to stand on hard issues previous candidates had an democrats are trying to have very hard left

candidates that draw attention to be a counter punch to donald trump but also having is richard was discussing infrastructure and recognition and demographics they lost in the last election so they are trying to cope with that and on some level they feel there is something on the menu they don't have but need to be victorious this time. heather: i want you to respond to this, duval patrick's tweet about running, migrating to having lost alger, getting rid of the incumbent president and doing what we used to do. another camp, our big idea or nowhere, neither seizes the moment to pull the nation together. >> to some extent he is right. the argument is the governor has quite a remarkable record when it comes to actually being a governor and an executive that has gotten things done for the state of massachusetts but the overhaul before he left the

office but beyond that he worked extremely hard at ensuring biofuels and he worked hard to ensure folks who have drug addiction in massachusetts can get access to health insurance oh deval patrick has a good record to run on but will he talk to democratic voters fast enough? 20% looking for a new candidate, can he get to them, can he talk to them and make a case to them before they get to the ballot box? shannon: heather: say he did a lot for massachusetts but running at this late date alexandria ocasio cortez among other things, throwing money into the fire, throwing money away. >> it takes time to explain that record. he has name recognition. in the age of donald trump he was a counter punch, they are trying to figure out a way to move forward.

if anything he might bridge the gap to get the conversation changing. democrats have been largely struggling on messaging to get on the same page in the last several weeks. >> that is wishful thinking, our messaging is clear. you have a lawless president in the white house. what democrats are talking about -- >> a lot of your candidates ran on getting rid of the second amendment. >> this is not about the second amendment. this is about ensuring -- >> from any of your candidates it was. >> lowering the cost of prescription drugs for senior citizens. >> none of them have been able to do. >> parents paying $1000 - heather: sorry trip you up, i hear some construction going on. richard and chris, we will see what happens with the debate coming up because that will be the opportunity to talk about these issues and see what they can accomplish moving away from impeachment we have been talking

about all week. thank you for talking to us. good to see you. the time is 20 minutes until the top of the hour. what do public housing and climate change have in common? the green new deal. the $180 billion plan bernie sanders and aoc just unveiled. and a nasty note for a 5-year-old to lose weight. the mother is outraged and you will be too. depressive lows.

heather: 15 minutes until the top of the hour. the trump administration's tough stance on immigration is working. border apprehensions dropping for a fifth straight month with 42,000 arrests in october, a 70% decrease from the high of 133,000 apprehensions in may. acting commissioner mark morgan says there is more work to do.

>> we made great progress. i remind the american people there still remains a humanitarian crisis on the southern border. heather: a bipartisan solution to the problem. senator bernie sanders and congresswoman alexandria ocasio cortez unveiling massive overhaul plans, the green new deal, the green new housing deal includes carbon neutral housing with on-site organic grocery stores and community gardens. >> tackling the climate crisis is an opportunity to create an economic stimulus and economic boom not just from wall street but for working people. >> this is a win-win piece of legislation. >> sanders says the plan will cost $180 billion.

how about business news. amazon crying foul after losing out on a $10 billion pentagon contract. the tech giants accusing the trump administration of unmistakable bias. tracy carrasco is here to explain. >> reporter: amazon is protesting the pentagon's decision to award that $10 billion contract to microsoft. this was a cloud computing contract and microsoft or amazon was competing against microsoft and oracle and amazon is expressing concern that politics got in the way of welfare contracting process. amazon was thought to be the front runner of this contract. they have the experience ahead of the other companies here but many know that donald trump has been critical of amazon and the founder of the company, jeff

bezos. that was concerned that that played a role, that is what amazon wants the government to look into. they believe there might be, quote, unmistakable bias. we are hearing that defense secretary as per says there was no influence for this decision. heather: let's talk about instagram. something that might impact more of us. hiding likes. >> reporter: they started testing this earlier this year in a number of countries. they said they would test this in the us. they are expanding the test globally. they will hide the like count. the person who posts a picture will be able to see how many people like that post but it will not be visible to anyone else. instagram says the reason they are doing this is to create a better environment, less competitive environment on instagram. we are hearing some criticism from a number of social media influencers that this is hurting

their business if companies -- if they can't see how many people like a certain post. instagram says they are working to figure this out. we don't know if this is something permanent but some people might notice the number of likes. heather: thank you, appreciate it. christmas is 40 days away but is it too soon to decorate? in one texas neighborhood they think it is but one family being ordered to ditch their declarations with a baby on the way, a baby due in the next month. is it giving up without a fight? they join us live next. ♪ your scholarly of the cactus ♪ you are as charming as an eel ♪ mister rindge ♪ you are a bad banana ♪ (danny) let me get this straight.

portion of this letter that came from the ho a saying violation, holiday decorations need to be removed, please remove the snowman until closer to the holiday season. what did you think when you got this letter about this violation? >> i was a little upset at first was what i did was shared it with our neighbors on facebook page and everybody started supporting us. i saw support from the neighbors. heather: i was going to ask what did the neighbors say when you put up the decorations? did they express any type of complaints do you? >> not at all. they were very supportive of us. we became closer. a lot of our neighbors around here.
