todd: ashley strohmier joins us with more as his plan is facing criticism. >> reporter: the plan drawing criticism after reports of a mask mandate as well as a fired former surgeon general taking charge of the task force. >> he's going to launch the coronavirus task force, going to be led by vivek murthy and david tesler who have been advising him and the campaign since the virus emerged back in march. >> reporter: vivek murthy was born in the u.k. and had been named for a four year term as surgeon general in 2014 by then president obama. president trump forced him to resign in april of 2017. another top priority will be that mask mandate, saying it will be implemented by working with governors. biden said if they refuse he will go to mayors and county executives to get the local masking requirements in place. along with the mask mandate, here's a look at the rest of biden's plan.

he wants to restore the obama era white house national security director for health security and biodefense, re-engage with the world health organization, relaunching the u.s. agency for international development's passage and tracking program, known as predict and call on local authorities to buttress state orders. yesterday, one day after crowds hit the streets to celebrate a projected biden/haiharris win, harris tweeted covid-19 was still a threat. this comes as the country hitting nearly 10 million cases of coronavirus as of of sunday and just over 450 new deaths connected to the virus and dr. jeanette nesheiwat is joining us in a little bit to talk about the covid-19 task force and the celebration crowds amid a rise in covid cases as well as deaths. back to you. todd: ashley, thank you very

>> on may 8th, 2018, the day the president tore up the nuclear deal. find a way to avoid the on-rush

of war and the best way to do that of course would be for president trump to rejoin the iran deal and build on it. todd: president-elect joe biden vowing to rejoin the iran nuclear deal that president trump withdrew from back in 2018. but is that the right move? former cia station chief and fox news contributor dan hoffman joins me now. why would we rejoin the iran nuclear deal when our leverage with them has never been higher thanks to quite frankly the crippling might of the sanctions we imposed on them. >> that's right. iran's economy is in absolute free-fall right now and they're also suffering as a result of the coronavirus pandemic which has really hit iran and its health systemically hard. let's remember that iran is in violation of the jcpoa. they're stockpiling enriched uranium at three times the levels that are allowed. they have enriched uranium at levels that they are not

allowed. and they've also launched attacks against shipping in the gulf, attacked our drone, as well as saudi aramco. i think this would be an extraordinarily divisive issue for the president-elect to pursue. and i think he would find a lot of on of significance in his own -- opposition in his own party. todd: the iranian president says, you now an opportunity has come up for the next u.s. administration to compensate the past mistakes and return to the path of complying with international agreements with international norms. i would say won't rejoining the jcpoa reward iran's bad behavior? >> the jcpoa was a flawed deal and democrats in the senate and the house recognized that. it didn't address iran's ballistic missile program and the state sponsorship of terrorism. let's consider the fact that the sanctions -- remember, the trump administration mounted an

operation against its general, qassem soleimani last year. those sanctions would have been removed in eight years after the agreement, in 2023. that's a designated terrorist organization. there are lots of flaws in jcpoa. i would argue it's not the right first step to make to try to get back into it. if the president-elect is seeking to unite our party, i think europe would support that but i don't think democrats and republicans, a majority of them would and rightly so. todd: all eyes on a prospective biden cabinet, susan rice on the short list for secretary of state. chris murphy, william byrd and tony blank in, if you were to generalize the foreign policy approach of those individuals you see on your screen, what is it? >> i had the honor of working with tony blankin when he was

deputy secretary of state and found him to be a substantive expert. i think his expertise is recognized by democrats and republicans. certainly ambassador susan rice would be a challenging i think nomination, given the republicans' concern about her going back to 2012 and her role in post-pebenghazi public discussion and misleading statements about what occurred there. so you know, i think this is something that we're going to be watching over the coming days to see whom president-elect biden chooses for that critically important role. todd: it will be highly krut knifed. we prior -- scrutinized. we appreciate your insight here on a monday. jillian: jim clyburn is claiming some democrat ebbing election losses on calls to defund the police. listen. >> they started to plateau when

defund the police showed one the caption on tv right across his head. that stuff hurt jim and that's why i spoke on it a long time ago. i've always said that these headlines can kill a political leaster. jillian: clyburn saying he and the late john yo lewis feared te calls could destroy the black lives matter movement. alexandria ocasio-cortez insists that no democratic candidate campaigned on defunding the police but the party should focus on working together instead of pointing fingers. >> we need to come together and not allow republican narratives to tear us apart. it's going to be more important than ever for us to work together and not fight each other. it's irresponsible to pour gasoline on these already very del katdelicate tensions in the. jillian: the call for unity coming after she told the new

york times she considered not running this year due to tensions in parties. she did it to prove her first win wasn't a fluke. todd: president-elect biden set to unveil his coronavirus task force today with a former surgeon general leading the team. jillian: dr. jeanette nesheiwat says there's one person biden really needs. she's live to tell us who, next. trying to keep things running

jillian: in just hours, president-elect joe biden will announce his covid-19 task force. todd: so what will a biden administration do differently? fox news medical contributor dr. jeanette nesheiwat joins me now. dr. jeanette, great to see you as always. it appears dr. vivek murthy, former surgeon general, is going to be co-chair of the task force. there's a picture of him right there. what do we know about dr. murthy. >> sure, todd. good morning. dr. murthy, he actually served our country in the past. he's an internal medicine doctor, he has worn the uniform, he served as surgeon general. he has the experience. he's a great doctor. again, he's an internal medicine specialist, not an infectious disease specialist so that is critical. because coronavirus is an infectious disease, similar to ebola, hiv, influenza, that sort of thing. so very important that they do have an infectious disease expert leading the team because this virus has taken the lives

of thousands of people in this country so we need to make sure that obviously the health and safety of americans being led by an experienced doctor is on that task force, very important. jillian: who would you suggest, if you had the opportunity to give a recommendation of an infectious disease expert or do you think they might have a short list already? >> sure. well, currently we have dr. birx, we have dr. fauci, admiral gerard, they're doing a tremendous job trying to mid gait the amount of deaths in the country. they are the world's top experts and we're just, for example, a month away from a vaccine so they're working very hard and their actions and their advisory to the current administration is doing a lot to save lives. so it's, again, they are the top -- the nation's top experts and we can't overlook that or of undermine their hard work. todd: meantime, doctor. let's take a look at the biden/hair righarris covid-19 pe

thing that stands out is definitely that national mask mandate. is that a good idea? >> so i think it's very important if you are unable to social distance, if you're in crowded areas, then you want to protect yourself, you want to wear a mask. but i don't know if that's going to make a life-changing difference, just like it's mandatory to wear your seat belt. it's mandatory to wear a helmet if you're on a motorcycle. people -- some people are not going to abide by the rules and we'll see, sadly, unwanted outcomes such as death. but it may help slightly but i think using common sense, practicing social distancing, you avoiding large crowds, all together with a mask will make a difference, absolutely. jillian: speaking of large crowds, look, for the last you few weeks and months there has been a lot of criticism directed at president trump for his rallies with the crowds, with people not wearing masks and then we saw a lot of crowds out on the streets on saturday.

you're taking a live look now while you -- you were looking at philadelphia, not a live look from saturday. washington, d.c., you can see the crowds out there as they're celebrating the news that came down on president-elect joe biden. some people are questioning the same thing on the other side, like how are crowds allowed to be able to go out there and celebrate like this? should they be able to? what do you think when you see these images. if you're going to conside crite side, you have to criticize the other as well. >> let's follow the cdc guidelines. we know firsthand, we learned so much this past six months, large crowds, lack of social distancing, this is grounds for transmission. these are breeding grounds for transmission of the virus, could potentially be a super spreader event. we have to take precautions. we have over 50 yo 50,000 ameris hospitalized right now, over 10,000 are in the icu. we're seeing an acceleration of hospitalizations right now and that is showing us that it's really a true disease burden in the community. so it's very important that we

abide by the rules, abide by the cdc guidelines to keep the curve flattened so we don't overwhelm hospitals. these type of events, whether it's a protest, whether it's a rally, whether it's a party, you can have what's called a super spreader event. one person can spread to another and can ultimately spread to 10 of other people and we see this exponential rise. it's important that we practice social distancing, wear your mask and avoid crowds. todd: we appreciate your time. thank you. jillian: one of the nfl's all-time grates surprise -- greats surprises one of our heros. >> someone from the nfl would like to talk to you. >> jessica. >> hello. todd: why peyton manning chose her, coming up. ♪ ♪ ♪

election. tapping doug collins to lead recount efforts in georgia. todd: meanwhile, all eyes on the senate. carley shimkus with where we stand on a monday morning. >> all eyes on georgia as the trump campaign tasks doug collins to lead the recount effort in the state. collins said he is confident that evidence will be found to prove that president trump won georgia fairly. the two candidates are separated by a razor thin margin in the peach state. fox news considers north carolina and alaska too close to call as well. stacy abrams says biden will be declared the hands-down winner. >> we know that whether it's tomorrow or next week, the result will be the same, that joe biden has won the state of georgia. >> meantime, the spotlight will stay in georgia for the next two months as both of its senate races enter a january 5th runoff. that could decide the balance of you power in washington.

if republicans want to keep control of the senate they will likely need to win at least one of these two senate races. meantime, joe biden's deputy campaign manager out with a message of unity, saying biden is willing to work with senate republicans. >> joe biden believes his job is to work with everybody. so that is -- that is the message for the american people, that's how joe biden views governing. work to bring people to the table, to try to find consensus. he has a record of being able to do that and that's how he's going to lead. >> and while biden is ready to reach across the aisle, his own party is squabbling after suffering surprising losses in the house. >> we have a slimmer democratic majority of. it will be more important than ever to work together and not fight each other. when we kind of come out swinging, not 48 hours after tuesday, pointing fingers and telling each other what to do, it deepens the division in the party and it's irresponsible.

coming to congress. those 1 10 vote against her aga, she will not be speaker of the house because she won't have 118 because of the gains of the republicans. jillian: the gop added several house seats this election, flipping at least seven from blue to red. todd: the washington nationals invite president-elect joe biden to their first game next season, tweeting in part we are excited to continue the long-standing tradition of sitting presidents hitting out the first pitch. that game scheduled for april 15th. jillian: today marks 400 years since the may flower first arrived in america. the pilgrims were fleeing religious persecution. todd: a huge loss for our country. jeopardy host alex trebek has died after a battle with stage

four pancreatic cancer. jillian: he hosted more than 8,000 you episode8,000 episodes. we take you through you his incredible career. >> here he is, the host of jeopardy, alex trebek. >> reporter: for 35 years, alex trebek entertained tv audience as the beloved host of jeopardy, a show he described as a simple recipe for fun. he studied philosophy at the university of ottawa. his television career began in 1961, first as a news announcer for the canadian broadcasting corporation, then as a game show host. >> in what part of the world would you find a wombat. 1973 he relocated to hollywood where he hosted numerous short-lived game shows, including high rollers and double dare. in 1984 -- >> this is jeopardy. >> reporter: trebek took the helm of jeopardy, becoming the witty nightly visitor to american living rooms. >> try and relax.

>> reporter: spending his days on the jeopardy set, he pulled double duty, also hosting classic concentration until its end in 1991. that year, trebek made broadcast history as the first person to host three american game shows at the same time when he briefly added nbc's to tell the truth to hosting duties. in 2013, trebek overtook bob barker as the guinness world record holder for most game show episodes hosted by the same presenter. his show boasted a loyal following and for good reason. beyond his humor. >> it won't matter who had the best hair. >> reporter: there were the moments like when cindy stole appeared as a consistent tess innocent 2016, suffering -- contestant in 2016, suffering from stage four colon cancer. >> cindy's ambition was to come to jeopardy and win over $100,000. she's done that. >> reporter: stole died just a week before her episode aired. three years later trebek was

facing his own cancer battle with bravery, candor and his trademark sense of humor. >> i plan to beat the low survival rate statistics for this disease. truth told, i have to. because under the terms of my contract, i have to host jeopardy for three more years. >> reporter: he was a philanthropist, using his fame to help others in need, working with world vision to aid children around the globe and boosting military morale with the uso. much more than just an a entertainer, he'll be remembered as a humanitarian and a nightly friend to so many americans. >> i'm grateful for the role i've played in the game show world and if i've been able to bring a smile to someone's face, or to make a difference in their life, hey, it's been a good day for me. >> reporter: in los angeles, trace gallagher, fox news. todd: trebek was 8 80 years ol, survived by his wife and three

>> so i haven't seen the evidence that they said they're going to bring forward in court today. obviously from a political perspective, you need a state that's big enough to actually make a material difference. legally, you also need to be able to make a material difference in the outcome to be successful in a case like this. while these margins may seem small in the context of a national election, margins like this, the one in pennsylvania, even the very small ones in arizona and nevada, those are still fairly large margins given how few ballots were likely affected by some of these issues. if they can show some sort of systemic concern about fraud, you still have to get to not only win the factual argument but get a court to look at a large enough block of votes that

it's going to affect the outcome. so it's a fairly high bar in this case. todd: let's take a look at nevada because you mentioned it. the voter fraud allegations there in the silver state, the gop could not observe the authenticity of 600,000 votes, 200,000 votes were counted by machine only of, under age and dead voters counted again, those were allegations from the trump campaign. i heard pundits say these maneuvers are less about turning the tide of this election, more about ensuring the next election engenders confidence. what say you? >> it is important, obviously, that voters not just in nevada but around the country have confidence and a belief in the integrity of the process. while i do think that's an important conversation to have in a general context, i think they're bringing this in the near term to make sure that president trump's voters, that even people who may have been voting for vice president biden,

again, it's not about which candidate wins in this context, it is about integrity of the process. i think it's important in both cases. the reality is, a lot of the larger systemic concerns about things like using machines to do signature match, those are not likely to be addressed in a litigation context. state legislatures, state voting regulators, they set those procedures, usually months in advance which is -- one of the challenges here, a lot of these procedures were done at the last minute to accommodate covid. jillian: i'm curious if you can go into your background from 2000 and give us insight as to what might be going on behind the scenes right now and a timeline for how long something like this you think might take. >> one of the things people need to remember, the key distinguishing fact between what's happening now and what happened in florida in 2000, that was all after the initial count. so first of all, we have to get through the completion of this

initial count. the key timeline to watch in this context is the certification dates. between now and the middle of december, the states will all certify their election. that is really the time when recounts, should they be needed and/or the legal challenges will take place. post certification, you're talking about the time between december and january 6th when congress needs to formally certify the electors. that's the time window, between now and mid-december. todd: thanks for the insight, alex. we appreciate your time. jillian: thank you for waking up early. still ahead, bernie sanders vows to hold president-elect joe biden accountable. >> i believe that the progressive movement today deserves important places in the biden administration, the answer is absolutely. jillian: could now be the far left's best shot at getting something done? todd: senior policy analyst

what john kasich had to say, calling out the progressive democrats. >> the democrats have to make it clear to the far left that they almost cost him this election, that people in this country are basically center, center right, center left. they're not far left. they're also not far right. jillian: there are people in the democratic party who understand that as well. so does he have a point? >> well, he does have a point. let's not forget that president trump won over 70 million votes. second highest in history. so that tells you there are a lot of people who still support the president's policies and the personality and so this bodes really hard for the far left socialist who had a repudiation of that agenda. the biden administration will try to give a couple peanuts to the aocs and bernie sanders and elizabeth warrens, but they recognize unless the senate flips it's going to be very difficult to advance an elizabeth warren at the helm of

treasury, for example or some of these progressives in some of these really high level positions. now, that's not to say that i think progressives, far lefters won't try to get something done. they've got to because after the 2022 elections it's going to be very difficult to put anything too partisan forward as we head into the next election cycle. jillian: you mentioned how many people voted for the president. some people might sit back and wonder the spot that joe biden is in right now because you do have that far left portion of the democratic party in his ear. you also have the more than 70 million people who voted for president trump. they voted for him because they felt as though he and his policies positively impacted their lives. that can't be ignored. how is joe biden to bridge this gap? >> well, you heard him echo some of his reaching across the aisle ideas and rhetoric. i think it's going to be interesting to see what he actually does. there are a couple of areas,

number one, coronavirus stimulus package that has to get done and it's unfort that you saw speaker pelosi hold up a potential deal before the election as a bargaining chip. let's see if he gets something done that's not hugely adding to our deficit and maybe trans pour transportation and infrastructure, that tends to be a place where people come together. i think the far left and the left will want huge infrastructure spending that a lot of conservatives cannot swallow right now and more worrisome is i think the economic policy where he's going to try to undo the tax cuts and deregulation, which has stimulated our economy and led to the 33.1% growth we saw last quarter. so i'm not -- honestly, i'm not looking forward to what the next two years, next four years portend, potentially. jillian: let's talk about this for a second. kamala harris makes history as the first woman and woman of color to be elected vice

president. i wanted to take a moment to get your opinion on this and talk about how impactful of a moment this is in history. >> you know, it's historic. and i don't want to overshadow that with politics. i mean, it is remarkable that you do have this woman who is second in command of the nation and so i think history -- this demonstrates how far we have come as a nation when it comes to race, when it comes to gender. now, when we bring back in her record and her issues, her policy positions on issues, that is very worrisome. but at the end of the day, i think it's interesting that we have a first female vice president, potentially, and it sends a signal to a lot of girls on both sides of the aisles that, yes, you can reach the top. this country is welcoming of blacks and people of color and of women. jillian: well stated. patrice onwuka, thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. >> thank you. todd: first lady melania trump
