you never mills a minute of "fox & friends first." jillian: that's right. "fox & friends" starts right now. see everybody back here tomorrow 4 to 6:00 a.m. have great day. ♪ dance, dance, dance, dance. ♪ creeping up on you ♪ so, just, dance, dance. brian: brings me back to that halftime show justin timberlake was able to put together a series of separate dance songs where he says the same thing over and over again and he is a very good dancer. welcome to the big show. it's a tuesday edition. we have lot of things happening including on capitol hill today twitter and facebook ceos will get ready to get grilled. senator josh hawley leading the charge on big tech censorship, he says has unmasked and found out about a coordination of all of that against republicans. i look forward to seeing some fireworks today on this channel. steve: he has a whistleblower that is going to blow the lid

off of coordination between twitter and facebook and those folks. so that's going to be great. thank you very much for joining us on this very busy let's see it's a tuesday. and it's cold here in new york city. we are currently under a freeze watch, believe it or not, ainsley. brian: that's why we wore the vest. steve: looks good. ainsley: looks good, brian. thanksgiving is around the corner. don't forget to buy your turkey they're going to run out of those eventually. brian: are we allowed to have a thanksgiving? >> ainsley: in new york 10 or less they are saying. steve: that's right. ainsley: get to that in a minute. georgia election official blames nearly 2600 uncounted ballots on human error. hey, griff. griff: good morning. i got to cut into the thanksgiving chatter that hand countdown in the peach state is heating up. they have got until midnight tomorrow to finish counting in all 159 counties. in one of them, floyd cut, a major discovery, nearly 2600 ballots were not taled according

to gabe sterling the director of elections for the state who explained how this could have happened. listen. >> what apparently looks like is maybe a memory card from one of the early vote devices was not loaded. and normally that would be caught by, you know, checks and balances within a county, which is the reason the secretary feels like in this particular case this wasn't egregious and it wasn't discovered until we did this audit. griff: starling says 1-r7b8g 863 for trump, 163 for biden. giving the president a net positive 678 votes well short of the 14,000 he trails biden by. this as the president is sounding off on the recounts saying officials won't let the campaign look at signature matching. calling on the governor to get involved. yesterday georgia's republican secretary of state brad wraps bd

wrapsberger shot back. they were given the gbi signature match training process so they are trained at looking at signatures there is this raffensperger claiming that lindsey graham in a call involving signature matching pushed him to find ways to invalidate legal ballots. graham calling the accusation, quote, ridiculous. meanwhile out west, in nevada, a special election is called in a clark county commission race where a number of voter disprep is is far exceeded the margin of victory. 139 discrepancies where the democrat led by just 10 votes. the president now taking notice. big victory moments ago in the state of nevada. will all democrat county commissioner race on same ballot as president just turned out because of large scale voter discrepancy. clark county officials do thought have confidence in their own election security. major impact. although the discrepancy does not appear to affect the presidential race because clark

county has already certified the results for all races other than that one commissioner one. brian, ainsley, steve? brian: thanks. we trial find out if the president is going to get anywhere in the georgia recount get an answer wednesday and do a recount in wisconsin and see if they make any progress in pennsylvania. sooner or later joe biden believes he is going to be president of the united states. and that's what he is planning for. yesterday he gave a major economic speech. at which time you thought you would see some give and some sense of this is where i would like to negotiate because at the very least is he going to have -- at the most is he going to have a 5050 senate. even with the vice president it's not going to be there every you will single time all the votes. there was no give. he talked about a minimum wage. he talked about prounion with tech firms. they nodded. he is about to name an official to head up his treasury that is for reparations and he is talking about student loan forgiveness. and then when it came to compromise or any type of big picture, it was time for the

reporters to ask a few questions. would they approach any of this? let's listen. >> what do you see is the biggest threat to your transition right now given president trump's unprecedented attempt to obstruct and delay a smooth transfer of power? >> it doesn't appear that the president is going to going to come around any time soon and admit defeat. what are you going to do? what options do you have to try to ensure that you are ready to go on day one? >> i want to get your thoughts on the president's tweet. how did you interpret that and at the end of the day do you want him to concede? >> what is your message to republicans who are backing up the president's refusal to concede? >> what is your message to people who are considering, for example, getting together with their families and others for thanksgiving? would you consider -- would you urge people to reconsider their plans? >> brian: so you had a bunch of questions that donald trump would have loved to have had at any point over the last four years. he probably had four like that in four years. it was questions all about

president trump steve, all about president trump and about his unwillingness to concede as opposed to what do you think the $15 minute mum wage will do to families and businesses already stressed out. what about some type of compromise to a stimulus package. why would you now go back into an iranian deal when they have nuclearized their arms and their program to a point way beyond everyone's threshold? steve: do you remember when "saturday night live" did that parity of the presidential news conference and they asked there was such an adoring press corps they at one point the question was mr., president, i believe it was of barack obama, mr. president, can i get you a pillow? because that is going forward perhaps a preview of what we are going to see when donald trump is no longer president and joe biden is the president in the briefing room, at least that's what joe concha says. watch this. >> what's a hard-hitting

question when you ask somebody about their poem or their world view or what they plan to do about x, y, z. first of the four of the five questions is about president trump. is he not conceding. what does that do for you moving forward. i get that completely. but, again, this is a preview of things to come over the next four years. hospitality instead of hostile which we saw under the president. steve: i will say, this once again, i was speaking to the correspondent assigned to joe biden yesterday in delaware and once again they have a list of the news outlets they they are going to ask questions of. fox news is never on the list. ainsley. ainsley: yeah. i mean, it's just -- that's what got me about this, steve. is all the articles i have read about this say they preselected these reporters. so joe biden didn't even call on these individuals. you will have to at least hand it to donald trump for always taking questions. steve: from everybody. ainsley: no matter where he was. exactly.

he would ask the questions. best of your recollection instead, his staffers, joe biden's staffers are hand selecting these people that they probably know are going to ask the easy questions. you remember the ice cream question chris stirewalt called that shamefully embarrassing. last week at the first press conference as being elected as president-elect, he got similar questions. very easy questions, too. i think this is a taste of what we are going to see over the next four years if president trump does concede. all right. so, the democratic party we talked about in this week and last week about the -- just the divide within the party and how they -- we called it the trojan horse or many people called it the pro-january horse many people get him elected and we will put our progressive ideas in his head and hopefully he will vote for some of our ideas. now there is a divide within the party and they have to decide which direction they are going. many of the conservative o more moderate democrats are blaming the progressives for losing a lot of their house seats. one of those is congresswoman

elissa slotkin. she is from michigan she says, you know, what about us? what about midwesterners and southerners. everyone in leadership positions is from california or new york. we need to be represented because your ideas are so progressive that's not how the rest of the country feels. so she says she won't support nancy pelosi as the speaker again. this is what she writes. i will not be voting for nancy pelosi. i believe, i just lost the prompter. okay. i believe and can we roll it back a little bit? guys can you read it? brian: yeah. here we go. i believe we will need new leadership, i would love to see more midwesterners because if you look across the leadership, i respect these people but it's new york and california. ainsley do you want to finish up the final thought there? ainsley: you keep going. oh, finish up with my thoughts? no, that's the end of it. really quickly. being from the south, and, you know, steve, you are from the midwest, brian, you are from long island. long island is extremely conservative now.

brian: almost in the water. ainsley: i appreciate that. everyone needs to be represented. nancy pelosi, if you look at what their records are look at kamala harris, she from california. she co-sponsored the green new deal. she praised l.a.'s mayor for slashing the lapd's budget by $150 million, the police department there. and so this lady, congresswoman slotkin is saying there no accountability for the speaker and we should have won big. this defunding the police, this green new deal, those are issues that killed our members, she said, brian. brian: yeah. yesterday as we move ahead. let's take a look at the house and what has slotkin and others so concerned and democrats they were supposed to pick up at least a dozen seats. instead they lost a dozen seats. so now they say this could end up being the slightest majority for any party since 1919. it is now 219 to 204. and the latest news is burgess owens takes the seat back to mia love barely lost to michael

mcadams and that was two years ago. so burgess owens fights it out. grinds it out. and becomes the congressman from utah. and it looks like hills opponent nick adams who temporarily has the seat left a concession speech on his voice mail which is classy. so, burgess owens, who got drafted by the jets but then went ahead to win the super bowl sorry, joel and went to the raiders, he is now in congress. he was not only able to have a great business career and athletic career now he is going to start this political career. if you talk about impactful congressman. my projection is he will be as impactful as jim jordan because he is going to make his voice known. somebody else who is going to make their voice known is nicole mall talk kiss. she ran for governor and state rep now she won a seat in staten island. here is what she said the g.o.p. gained by getting so many seats but not in the majority. >> i think people in america are

rightfully concerned about attempts to bring socialism to our nation. whether it be the dismantling of our economy or defunding the police or concerns about abolishing ice or socialized medicine. people are saying wait a minute, this is not america. this was a referendum on what the socialist squad has been pushing and americans speaking out and saying you know what? we need to counter this and we are going to send people who are going to fight for our freedoms and ensure that we are the america that we love, not socialists. brian: yeah. and when i saw mark penrose's story today what he gets from gains in the house and republicans have an excellent shot at holding the senate is america is mostly moderate there are 34 percent said they were conservative. 23 percent said they were liberal. for the most part americans are still right in the middle. burgess owens by the way will be on with us in 38 minutes -- excuse me about 30 minutes and

to talk about his victory. another win for him and his career. steve: terrific. meanwhile, we mentioned this at the top of the program, what is your plan for thanksgiving? it's interesting. ohio state university did a poll and apparently a majority of americans are going to social distance and they are going to make sure that their guests, if they do have guests come in and less than 10 and things like that. they are going to make sure that everybody is safe. however, what is kind of puzzling is about 40% of americans are planning a big thanksgiving with more than 10 people. 38%. 27% say they will not have any social distancing at their event and even 20% say we won't turn away guests who actually have symptoms, which is kind of scary because we know how contagious this is. nonetheless, here in new york state, the governor has said okay, if i are going to have thanksgiving, you can only have no more than 10 people.

that's it. that's going to be the statewide limit. here's the problem. how are they going to figure that out? are they going to drive up and down streets? are they going to count the cars? are they going to watch at the grocery store hey have you five boxes of stove top stuffing in the patrol car lady, absolutely not. at least four sheriffs in new york state have already said we are not going to enforce that dumb rule. people are smart enough and resources are thin. here's richard jardino, fulton county sheriff. he was on with "fox & friends first" a little earlier and he thinks this governor's plan is not a good one. it's a turkey. >> the anxiety that this rule is causing is unbelievable. people believe that the governor and other executives want to use law enforcement as a tool to make them submit. when you try to authorize by executive order that we can come into somebody's house, count the people and take some sort of action, that remedy is greater

than the wrong having people gather because, frankly, i have faith in people people in my community to use their intelligence, what they know about the covid and make a determination. steve: yeah. he's being right. just be smart. you know what the risks are. and they are substantial because it's contagious and there are a lot of people who don't show any symptoms. in fact, in october, up north of the border in canada, they had their thanksgiving on october the 12th. and the officials there say that the nonchalant approach toward the covid is the reason canada is currently spiking, ainsley. ainsley: that's interesting. so, this sheriff, he is so funny. he said we have limited resources. we have to set priorities. so obtaining a search warrant to enter your home to see how many turkey or trophy few eaters are present is not a. >> there will be no tofu eaters at our house i'm just saying. ainsley: we are in new york.

he represents new york. what is your announcement? brian: my announcement is i'm going to announce 10 finalists started with 5 and down to 10. steve: joe biden whittled his list down. brian: same way i found out i made a varsity soccer team he posted and others had nowhere to go. posting my list of top 10 people. everyone else know you don't matter as much. steve: is this your way of telling ainsley and i we are not coming to your house? brian: unlikely. can i name you alternates in case there is an injury? ainsley: i will be the first alternate. seriously though, it is spreading and people do need to be safe but the sheriff's point is we can make our own decisions. steve: personal responsibility. ainsley: exactly. brian: i just love jim jordan's tweet don't cancel thanksgiving and christmas cancel lockdowns. with that i would love to accept

jillian mele's. jillian: i just like steamy mashed potatoes. brian: plenty of carbs. >> exactly. city and state leaders tightening coronavirus restrictions as cases surge. in iowa, residents are now required to wear a mask in public. while virginia tightens his its mask mandate and alcohol sales. all indoor dining is bad. outdoor dining is limited to just four people from the same household. meanwhile, california governor newsom apologizes for breaking his only lock down rules to attend the party. we are all human. we all fall short sometimes. i need to preach and practice not just preach. >> newsom says if cases continue to rise a curfew could be implemented. let's talk about extreme weather now. hurricane iota slams nicaragua. powerful winds up to 155 miles per hour tear off roofs,

brian: georgia's 2600 uncount the ballots. gearing up for a senate showdown. stacey abrams claiming that quote 600,000 georgians requested their mail-in ballots already for january 5th. closer look at the state race is senior communication strategist analyst for wsb radio in atlanta. bill qur'an. first off on the 2600 ballots were you shocked to hear that these were just uncounted? >> i'm shocked to hear that one of the voting cards in one of

machines early vote not absentee somehow did not get fully downloaded on election day or afterwards that should have been caught as dave sterling said when they were doing the audit of how many ballots were cast versus the individual races but it wasn't. it was caught in the secretary of state's audit. 2600 ballots were tabulated last night and the president receiving a majority of those. but only really picking up a net of 800 votes which doesn't do a lot to close 14,000 vote deficit with the vice president. brian: looks like we are on schedule to finish up all 159 19 counties tomorrow. what do you think will change? >> i think the margin will change slightly. i think the president will close the gap a little bit. we are still going to be talking about 12 or 13,000 ballots in joe biden's favor. the big counties still out gwinnett county the seventh congressional district carolyn boudreaux the democrat and cobb county which is a republican suburban county that flipped to democratic is still out. but the majority of metro

atlanta dekalb and fulton and other second tier counties are in. so we're basically looking at finishing up most of them by tonight. brian: all right. so let's move onto the senate battle which will decide the balance of power in the senate. the republicans need one. the democrats need both. karl rove in a call yesterday that was leaked out i is going to be heading up fund raising for the republican side he says we will be out raised the question is how much things are stacked against us. for the most part tradition says the republicans usually win these run-offs why is karl rove worried. >> two senate run offs in 1992 won narrowly by 18,000 votes and then rather handily won by senator saxby chambliss over senator jim martin in 2008. the concern has to do with the combination of factors, the enthusiasm gap there are a lot of republicans upset about the election result question the validity of those results and wonder if their vote matters.

the party is divided by yes loeffler and doug collins for other senate seat here. a lot of enthusiasm that stacey abrams fair fight in georgia has made for the blue wave, if you will that never occurred but many met trol and suburban counties metro atlanta changing to blue or at least purple that will drive turnout and those are the counties that drive the election here in georgia. brian: she says already 600,000 requests forrable absentee ballots what does that mean big picture. >> 1.3 million absentee ballots cast in the general election. i don't know what the source of ms. abrams information might be. i have already put in my request but the state has not released any kind of numbers on how many. she has been known not unlike our president, to overstate and not unlike our president she never conceded a loss with 58,000 votes to governor brian kemp. she acknowledged that he won but she never concede you had the election. but she clearly has got a ground game that's tough to beat. they are out there identifying and targeting households either early vote during the three weeks begin december the 14th for that january 5th run off or

to cast absentee ballots by mail there are drop boxes in place that came sings the pandemic. they will still be here for that election. clearly in both the 2018 race that she was the nominee on the democratic side and the 2020 general primary election and run off and the general election, democrats in georgia won early voting and won absentee voting that's what they are keying on for the january 5th run off. brian: real quick, does the president help if he goes down there. >> he helps if he focuses on the senate races and why the g.o.p. needs to hang onto the senate. he hurts if it's all lamenting about the election being stolen from him. brian: right. thanks so much. bill, check with you again because you are all over these numbers. no one is going to get a ballot unless they request a ballot. >> that's correct. we do not have universal mail-in voting it's solicited. put that in writing either in email or go online and do it to the secretary of state's state's office. brian: no one knows more about

the election process than bill qur'an. >> thank you, brian. brian: appreciate it. first it was the so-called summer of love rocking seattle. now the city planning to install heroin injection sites and lay off more police officers. can residents ever catch a break? we speak to one who is sounding the alarm next. ♪ (children laughing) ♪ (music swells) ♪ ♪ (music fades) (exhales) experience the power of sanctuary at the lincoln wish list sales event. sign and drive off in a new lincoln with zero down, zero due at signing, and a complimentary first month's payment.

♪ ainsley: out in seattle the city council is considering a proposal that would allow drug addiction, mental health or poverty to be used as a legal defense for many misdemeanors. in a new op-ed our next guest argues this is just the latest part of seattle's downward spiral. seattle radio host jason rants joins you now. good morning, jason. >> good morning. >> i know it's early out there. you live in that city. tell us what the tells us where the city is going. progressive city and the council is looking at pretty much every issue through that lens. three things that are on the top of a lot of people's minds. number one heroin injection sites by the end of next week. we expect we will have a budget in place that installs these sites at various locations throughout seattle at the stand alone sites where people are already going to go get services. now, of course we know that

there is scant evidence to suggest that it gets people off of heroin. there is going to be a further defunding of the police to the tune of 20% at a time where we have historically low police staffing. in fact, we haven't seen such a low deployable stat since 1990 at a time right now where crime is historically high, specifically homicides. as you mentioned, essentially legalizing misdemeanors by rewriting seattle's criminal code which essentially gives an affirmative defense for almost all misdemeanors so long as you say that you are homeless, that you are experiencing the symptoms of mental health issues or substance abuse, which basically means hey, you are not really going to be punished for some of the crimes that have been impacting the city that impact people the most. ainsley: yeah, i'm reading it substance addiction, mental illness or poverty. those are all valid defenses.

so what about the other residents there that are not on that list? how are they reacting? are they leaving? are they complaining? >> so, it's a combination of a whole bunch of things. right now we actually have a pretty significant exodus of people leaving the seattle area. when you look at just the vacancy rates, for example, of apartments in certain neighborhoods. downtown seattle is down 8.5%. other neighborhood by 8%. union where amazon is located the apartment vacancy rates last month 9.5%. that is an insane number for a city that is supposed to be bringing in all of these people. ainsley: yeah. this council woman lisa herbold you should have punishe shouldne coddle rather than tweeting them. what do you think the solution. >> i think the solution is to actually force people into treatment. get people onto the right path that when you give someone two

choices either going to jail for breaking the law or getting the treatment that they need be it addiction or mental health treatment or whatever it is, they ultimately will take the right path and we just need to push them just a little bit to get on to that right path. these are chronically homeless people. ainsley: instead of allowing alo live in tents or installing heroin injection sites. thank you, jason, for being with us. great to see you this morning. >> thank you, ainsley. ainsley: you are welcome. coming up. a former super bowl champion defeating utah's only democrat in congress and putting a big dent in speaker pelosi's house majority. burgess owens joins us fresh off his big win. that's coming up next ♪ can you feel it ♪ take you by the hand ♪ around, around ♪ when a hailstorm hit, he needed his insurance to get it done right, right away. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for.

mr. mcadams, your competitor, your opponent, the democrat party didn't really do him any favors, did they? >> no. and i will tell you, i'm just so proud of the american people. always have had faith in the american people utahens. key point in american history no more gray. we have to fight toward freedom son september our country was built again fighting against socialists and marxists. you are right my opponent didn't get any favors when you have the leadership of his party heading into leftism. proud of the american people to give opportunity to hold off this process. we now need to make sure we keep the senate. we do that we will give our country a good -- a good two years and then get back the house and really move forward with the policies that will give our country, everyone a chance to experience the american

dream. ainsley: i know it was a close race you fought until the end. did you hear from mr. mcadams. did he call you. >> had great conversation with ben. he spoke about how much he appreciated the opportunity to serve this district and working with me on the transition. that's the way americans should do it. we fight hard. we fight for our dreams. at the end of the day, it's all about the end game. end game is making sure our country moves forward. our districts move forward and i'm very, very looking forward to working with my opponent my former opponent to make sure this is a great transition and that district 4 wins in the process. brian: looking at other seats still out there. five of which republicans have substantial leads. even bigger than yours. you are at 1700 roughly over the weekend. i thought you were going to lock it up earlier burgess in everything that you have accomplished in your life getting drafted by the jets. becoming a star and going to the raiders and winning the super bowl. where does this rank in terms of your accomplishment at this

moment? >> what a great question. i remember sitting in super bowl 15 in the locker room with the raiders getting out to play the biggest game of my career thinking and looking around the room and seeing all-stars gathering and so much respect for many years. i cannot believe i'm sitting here with these guys. i feel the same way now. we have a team that's remarkable. i can't wait for our country to recognize and see this game changing team that we're putting together and cannot believe i'm sitting with them at a time when our country needs these kind of patriots. no more than we need now. so i'm thankful for the opportunity. getting ready to hear from a game changing group and i'm excited about the process. brian: in president obama's book that he has coming out he says that president trump's election was a reaction to people uncomfortable seeing a black man in the white house. what else your reaction to that? >> oh president trump's election is what our country is all about. we bring ourselves together. we are a country of diverse people. one thing in common we are proud to be americans. we now sees a americans what

we're up against. those who have made this country wore for themselves and they still cannot say thank you. they cannot say if i can do it you can do it. two different sides of the picture. thank goodness america is now voting for those of us who believe this is the greatest country in the history of mankind. throughout obstacles we overcome and bring others on board with us by giving them hope they can do it also. thank goodness for president trump and georgia. give us an opportunity to really put a wall between us and the socialists. give us two senators i tell you the next two years will be pretty awesome. we will do what we have to do to make it happen. steve: you flipped that blue seat red. it had been held by mia love up until a couple of years ago. but this was, i understand, the most expensive race for the fourth district of utah in state history. >> right. steve: you didn't have that much money in the bank. until fundraisers by don jr. had you ted cruz. you had kevin mccarthy. they all showed up and helped make you money and that,

undoubtedly, helped you in the tv war. >> let me tell you what i'm seeing in the times meeting here as a party never been this united. what made that great somebody team i played with work is not just because of the talent because of the unity we have. we have that happening in our party today. i want to thank all accuse this country that not only sent the money but sent their prayers. that's what makes our country what it is. by the way this was nothing but race. this competition is all about policies and about principles and values. that's what we do best. so let's not left the leftists divide us with all those divisive ways they do it. realize our principles and values first. keep that in front and our country will win in a big way no matter who we are and background and color might be. ainsley: burgess, you are a class act. thank you for being on with us. i know your faith is extremely important to you. go get them in washington. brian: ainsley stole my line, how dare you. i tell people to go get them.

how far dare you do that. ainsley: i did. i thought you were making fun of me. brian: 218 to 204. it's getting close. ainsley: i thought you were making funnel of me for talking about faith. i don't remember. did i say god bless you to him? anyway. let's hand it over to janice on a serious note. i know there is a big storm coming through. steve: big. janice: yes. absolutely. hurricane season is not over yet. unfortunately we had almost category 5 move into almost the exact same spot asset that did two weeks ago. so, this is iota. it was a strong category force 155 mile-per-hour sustained winds. it's weakening. but this is a catastrophic life threatening event for these poor folks in central america through nicaragua and then get the heavy rainfall threw through honduras and believes up through mexico. this is unfortunately a humanitarian crisis in this region with two almost category

5 storms moving over the exact same regions. and i mean the list, we have iota now. there is a good indication we could have capita just south of iota in the next couple of days. it's not over yet. that's the bottom line. the rest of the u.s., thankfully. very quiet. we have the potential for some heavy rain and mountain snow over the northwest. and the lake effect snow machine is cranked up. and as steve mentioned earlier it's cold freeze advisories in the northeast. a taste of winter over parts of the country the eastern half. back to you steve, ainsley and brian. steve: that's right. think about a big coat if you are going out today. all right, j.d., thank you. straight ahead the drug maker moderna celebrating a big break through as their covid vaccine is nearly 95% effective. our next guest took part in that trial. going to hear from him, jack morning star next this morning ♪ one foot in front of the other ♪ ♪ trelegy for copd.

effective in the preliminary trials. 30,000 volunteers participated in the trials, including our next guest and jack morning star joining us right now from chapel hill in north carolina. jack, good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: i know the way the trials work they get all these people and don'they tell them we are er going to give you the vaccine or the placebo of something else. >> that's correct. >> steve: you think you got the actual shot why? >> after the first vaccine i had a little bit of fatigue and arm pain that lingered a couple of days. not tiny tense but like a tetanus shot where you feel like you got punched in the arm when you wake up and about the same for the booster with a little bit of a fever the next day which made me think, you know, giving thgiven the fact that tho is a solution in the majority of

people who have gotten it didn't really have any symptoms at all that was telling to me that was the real deal. steve: sure after the trials or approval they will tell you either got the shot or the placebo so you can get a vaccine going forward to protect yourself. for the people looking in, jack, thinking i don't know if i trust this vaccine you are in a unique situation where have you actually had it. what do you tell those people thinking i don't know if i'm going to get it? >> i think the important thing to recognize. i mean, like we have had an unprecedented amount of resources that have been pumped into this entire process. i think some people might be nervous that at the end of the day like they have been cutting corners in terms of safety protocols which is not at all the case. normally these clinical trials take so much money and resources

to just get off their feet. since the whole world and all of its operations have basically a screeching halt with this pandemic. i mean this has been the number one priority for health institutions worldwide. so, i would concerned for your viewers and the date that just came out saying it's 95% effective roughly which is up there with some of the vaccines that we're all accustomed to make like mumps, measles and the vaccines that helper radiculopathy indicate serious diseases that are no longer commonplace. steve: sure. jack, given your unique situation where you were part of this trial. and you believe you got the actual vaccine, do you feel more protected you? nope, the whole world is walking around without what have you g got. >> i agree i have been super careful. i don't want to scare people

walking around without a mask and that sort of thing it. does come as some comfort knowing the vaccine is effective and i likely do have antibodies. i'm not going to be 100 percent comfortable icomfortable majorie vaccinated and develop some sort of herd immunity. steve: thank you for telling your story. some people are interested in it. sounds like you actually got it. good luck to you. jack morningstar studying a junior at the university of north carolina chapel hill, jack, thanks so much. >> thank you, have a good one. steve: all right. now you know. couple minutes charles payne is going to join us, plus dan crenshaw, troy gowdy, rob smith and lieutenant dan rooney. ready to juvéderm it? correct age-related volume loss in cheeks with juvéderm voluma xc,

breaking his own restriction rules. >> i want to apologize to you because i need to preach and practice not just preach. >> cousins forgetting about the field goal one arm able to bring it down for the touchdown. steve: live from new york city. that's the empire state building that we can see through those skyscrapers down 34th street. welcome aboard, folks. it's tuesday november 17th, 2020. and a word to any governors out there. if you are going to have a mandate where you are say, you know, you can't exceed a certain number of people in a room, don't actually break the rule. because, yesterday, it was revealed that gavin newsom was out in california did that and he didn't have a little egg on his face, ainsley he had a whole

omelet. i know. he was caught at like a very expensive restaurant. steve: french laundry. ainsley: same owner here in new york most specific restaurant in new york. he was there with 12 people and had to make a public apology, brian. brian: he is just upset he got caught. it's not likes he turned himself, in he got caught. of course going to see favorite lobbyist as a french place. oops, why did i put on my good gel and go to a party i don't wrong at. ainsley: doesn't it remind you of the husband who said my wife, she is the governor so let me put my boat in. brian: absolutely. what about the mayor lightfoot in chicago oops, i had to go to joe biden's celebration it was a big moment. as opposed to everybody else in chicago who doesn't have any big moments in their lives like the mayor of washington, d.c. who had to go celebrate joe biden. but noble else can go out. steve: brian, hold on a second. you said your good gel. do you have two different kinds of gel.

brian: on weekends i don't waste my good gel i use a again neighbor brand and during the week i use more of a name brand because it's sponsored. i sold the sponsor on my head. steve: does my pillow do a gel? brian: i'm not sure if my pillow does a gel but if they do i'm sure i will see it in tucker's show. three minutes after the hour. griff jenkins live in washington as a georgia election official blames nearly 2600 uncounted ballots on human error. a guy who never made an error and as a human griff jenkins. steve: griff looks like he has his good gel. brian: he has great gel. griff: i can north confirm or deny but it may be hair gel that i am wearing today. i digress, guys. brian, ainsley, steve, good morning to you. steve: good morning. griff: folks in the white house are watching what's happening down in georgia as you mentioned. one county of the 159 doing the hand recount which the deadline is midnight tomorrow in floyd county nearly 2600 ballots were not tallied.

gabe sterling, the director of lengszelections there explainedw this could have happened. watch. >> what it apparently looks like is a memory card from one of the early vote devices was not loaded. and normally that would be caught by checks and balances in a county why the secretary feels in this particular case wasn't egregious thing and wasn't discovered until we did this audit. griff: sterling says 1643 votes were for trump 865 for biden giving the president a net positive gain of 778 votes. short of the 14,000 he trald trails biden by in the overall count. this as the president sounds off on the recount saying officials will not let the campaign look at the signature matching, calling on the governor to get involved. but yesterday georgia's republican secretary of state brad wrapraffensperger shot bac.

the last year the election officials were given the gbi signature match training process. they are trained at looking at signatures. griff: raffensperger also claims that senator lindsey graham in a private phone call pushed him to find a way to find illegal ballots. graham calling the accusation quote ridiculous. mean while out west take to you nevada called clark county commissioner race where the number discrepancies is far exceeded. 139 voter discrepancies compared the democrat lead which just by 10 votes. the president taking notice of that tweeting, this. quote big victory moments ago in the state of nevada. will all democrat county commissioner race on the same ballot as the president thrown out because of large scale voter discrepancy. clark county officials do not have confidence in their own election security. major impact. the discrepancy, however, does not necessarily effect the presidential race because clark county has already certified

their races. all of the races except for that one. now, raffensperger by the way georgia's secretary of state appearing on "america's newsroom" i'm told here in the 9:00 hour stay tuned to see if we have any more on that and speaking of georgia by the way, later in the week, vice president mike pence will travel down to the peach state because you certainly have those two senate races that could decide the balance of the senate. brian, ainsley, steve? steve: all right, griff, thank you very much. i have a feeling a lot of people are going to be going to georgia. let's go to charles payne right now. the host of making money over on fox business and he you joins us live. charles, good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: okay, so joe biden held another one of his very cordle press conferences where he took some cordial questions from cordial reporters in delaware. he also was trying to make good on a campaign promise. here is the former vice

president now president-elect. >> we will build back better we will do so with higher wages, including a $15 minimum wage nationwide. better benefits, stronger collective bargaining rights that you raise a family on. steve: okay, so charles, he has made that a campaign promise for a while. $15 per hour. florida just actually passed that 60% majority down in the sunshine state. >> right. steve: what is your concern about that going forward? >> well, my biggest concern are in states where the overall incomes are lower and you forcing small businesses to pay out money they just simply can't afford. and i think the biggest concern is it is going to backfire. a business with 10 employees may end up with 7 employees, a household where have you two people working at minimum wage may end up with only one person working. net-net the family loses out. the small business loses out the state loses out. what you said was much more impactful we need to pay attention to is the collective

bargaining and union part. he pulled together a bunch of american businesses large businesses and told them to their faces unions are going to have more power. steve: he did. >> right now the minimum wage covers 1.8 million people. the union story covers every american worker who by the way have rejected unions big time since 1983. private unions almost 17% down to 6%. is he saying not only to these businesses, but to the american public, people who have opted out that, no, you are going to be forced to join a union and that is the scariest thing that happened yesterday with the potential president of the united states saying hey, you are going to do this. we are going to change the way corporations. here's the problem with this i don't think it works for the greater good. hawaii has the most union workers in the whole country highest unemployment rate in the whole country. new york follows that rhode island follows that the minimum wage story i'm very worried

about particularly with small business. the union story is the bigger story that happened yesterday. and everyone should be paying attention. ainsley: yeah, as far as the small businesses are concerned i was talking to a friend who has a small business. she says i'm afraid we can't survive. 7.25 is the current minimum wage, to bump it up almost double, you know, that's more than double, actually wouldn't it be yeah, that would be more than double. she said we are worried we can't survive. let's move onto the progressives that want this -- they want to forgive student loans. they want to make public colleges free and aoc tweeted this out. student loan forgiveness is good, actually. we should also push for tuition-free public colleges to avoid this huge debt bubble from financially disseminating people from every generation. it's one of the easiest progressive policies to pay for avenues from ultra wealth tax to cover it. joe biden, feeling the pressure. this is what he says. >> i have laid out in detail,

for example, the legislation passed by the democratic house calls for immediate $10,000 forgiveness of student loan, making sure that we have access to free education for anyone making under $125,000 for four years of college. and there is a program that exists now under the law that forgives student loans for being able to engage in public service. i'm going to institute fundamental change in that so it's able to be available to everyone that in fact is engaged. ainsley: charles, it sounds great to be able to go to college for free or to have your debt wiped away. but how do these colleges survive if that happens and how in the world do we pay for it? >> well, the colleges are going to survive. let's not forget it was the obama-biden administration that took out middleman and said you know what we will just approve every single college loan. tuition went straight through

the moon. colleges are going to do great if the taxpayer is faying poor t wealth tax. number one debt in this country. close to $1.7 trillion this would be the ultimate redistribution of wealth. and really here's the thing. college bachelor degrees folks with bachelor degrees right now have 4% unemployment rate. a year ago it was 2%. on average they earn a lot more over a lifetime a couple million dollars more. $1.5 million more than people without college degrees. in that respect it's supposed to be an investment. and so where do we start to figure it's a burden and not an investment and if it is a burden then why get the college degree in the first place in the whole thing is specious and dangerous. it's dangerous. where do we stop with all of this stuff. you go to college so you are more marketable, you make more money and you pay back the loan. that forgiveness program over 60% of people who have applied

for it have been denied. so, there is even issues with that as it stands right now. the only entity that makes big on this are these colleges and they just keep ratcheting tuitions up keep ratcheting up someone is going to pay. they don't care who pays they keep making the money. keep bringing it in. brian: already state grants. already pell grants. there are student loans. maybe they were predatory. we are not sure. maybe they can maybe do something to consolidate them. but just forgiving a mass amount of student loan, someone pays for it. let's go to the last part that is going to get you fired up. why do they give me questions get you fired up every single week, charles. now we will start locking counsel down the country again. in ohio indications they are going to be doing that. in michigan, in washington, in pennsylvania, locking down the country. while by the way, get that whole doubling of the minimum wage out there for the small business owners, what do you say to gym owners and restaurant owners and

commercial real estate owners buildings. what do you say to them now that lockdowns are coming our way again? >> first, pray for them. any of them that have survived to this point, you got to give them a shoutout and praise. because it's been -- it's been tough. and even without those new lockdowns, places like new york with 25% occupancy are going to put other places out of business. it's just -- it's mind boggling because we spend -- not we but the media spent all summer dissing president trump and how dumb he was because europe did it right. they did everything perfectly. well, all of a sudden we look around and their rates of covid have surpassed us. they have rocketed. our economy has come back better than any european country. so, the notion that somehow this works, we don't know that it works. brian: it doesn't work. >> right. here's the point. eventually whatever happens it doesn't make sense to destroy the economy, particularly to

wrongs in the economy for something we have seen in realtime as we praised it was not working in realtime. so, it's a devastating -- it's going to have devastating consequences. >> great news for colmes costco and walmart and target. because all the other businesses just go on home and goodbye to every other -- goodbye to every restaurant. >> walmart posted their earnings and their numbers are through the roof. home goods posted their earnings numbers are through the roof. ma and p&a make all the money. steve: wall matters earnings up 79% with e-commerce because that's the way people shop these days. charles you know in new york and new jersey they are putting limits on the number of people who can get together for thanksgiving. these are suggestions. clearly there is no law but nonetheless, four sheriffs in new york state have already come out and said we are not going to enforce it. what governor cuomo says with the 10 person limit because we just are not going to do it. we are not going to drive up and down the streets and count the

cars and see who is going in and out. here is one of the sheriffs who says no to cuomo. >> yeah. >> the anxiety that this ruling is unbelievable. people believe that the governor and other executives want to use law enforcement as a tool to make them -- when you try to authorize by executive order that we can come into somebody's house, count the people and take some sort of action, that remedy is greater than the wrong having people gather. because, frankly, i have faith in people in my community to use their intelligence, what they know about the covid and make a determination. steve: ultimately, charles, this sun like any holiday season we have ever lived through with a pandemic. 10 people, 215 people. whatever. people take personal responsibility, you know what the risks are do the right thing

one of the big overarching stories with all of this has been the isolation story, the separation of families and how important role mental fatigue. brian: politicians don't care. >> you know, this is the day? thifings is when we need people more than ever of before. this notion that you are coming that is separation of families it's the most important day of the year i think outside of christmas. this time it means so much more we have been separated and forced apart. when this pandemic started i tried to be a good citizen, right? i read children's book through a glass door. i'm not doing. this i brought all my kids over got a bouncy house. i don't want to tell my whole life story here but something

that was the toughest, toughest thing i ever went through personally as a human being and as a father and i just tell you this isolation thing is devastating it's devastating and they better rethink it. brian: they haven't, charles. it's 8 months over and doing the same drill again. want us to go along like legislation. it's got to stop. >> they have got to stop. people have got to revolt. not. brian: absolutely. >> 15 people coming over, coming over period. if you want to take someone to jail for that, that's on you. brian: while you are defunding police asking them to you can knock down doors on residents because they invited an extra aunt over and take them out in cuffs. good luck with that. steve: charles, you are right depressed frustrated and exhausted we want this to be over. >> we need our families we need this one day to be with our families.

we need it. steve: whole thing personal responsibility and do thanksgiving smartly and safely. brian: politicians back off. meanwhile, charles payne go ahead, ainsley. ainsley: i was just going to say imagine shutting down your business, too. and not getting a paycheck on top of everything else. this is a stressful time. all right. thanks, charles. you can watch making money with charles payne 2:00 p.m. on fox business channel. all right. still ahead, as businesses battle to stay open amid strict lockdowns one business in florida surging ahead to help create jobs. a restaurant owner shares a story of success and messages for others that's coming up next. ♪ i get knocked down ♪ but i get up again ♪ never going to keep me down ♪ i get knocked down ♪ i get back up again [narrator].

steve: welcome back. as many businesses battle to survive during this pandemic, one restaurant owner actually defied the odds sheriff adrian calvo was able to create 2300 new jobs with latest project this summer. she opened a new restaurant and expaneledded another one of her restaurants in south florida and she joins us right now from the miami area. chef adrian calvo good morning to you. >> good morning. >> in the eyes of the nation were on the pandemic and so many businesses were as we were talking before were locked down and shut down, it was in the month of june when things were at their zenith there in south florida that you decided to open another restaurant. how did you do that? you defied the odds. >> how did i do that? i think it was just a faith in people. in that no matter how tough things got, eventually, we

will -- we would and will find our way back to normal. whatever that normal is, but, still, restaurants cannot go away forever. people are social. we need to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, milestones and just every day living. steve: but how did you do it? miami-dade where you are located actually had more restrictive restrictions than any place else in the state. and at that point, you know, because we were planning my daughter's wedding at that point in florida, you know, you can't have more than 10 people. you can't have more than 20 people. >> yes. steve strife you were able to open a place indoor-outdoor space. thousands of square feet and a lot of people were able to come. >> we were pivoting at the drop of a dime. when the government was is unlike only outdoor seating. that's what we did. when it was only takeout, it was only takeout. when they were aloud to sit four people at a table and six feet

apart then we did that but we did the best we could following the guidelines and just always keeping our thumb -- our foot on the gas and keeping connected to our guests with you know, development and updates and social media. and never cutting corners. we served exactly what we would have served had it been 100 percent grand opening and all of that and we did that whether it was in a takeout container. and people supported us. steve: right. you turned on a dime. as you said a moment ago, you were able to pivot given the restrictions and the guidelines that were coming from the state and also from the mayors down there as well. >> yeah. steve: for small businesses watching right now, what is the lesson you have learned here? >> the lesson would be stick to it. remember why you opened the restaurant in the first place. it's not easy. and even though i have had large

restaurants 7 or 8,000 feet mom and pop. not a large corporation by any means. many of those times meant that i was on the line with one more person cooking it was pivoting. trying to keep all of our staff members paid and also applying for all the programs that were available during that time. but, again, shifting fast quickly, acting fast. not just standing there and being oh, my god this is the end of the restaurant industry. because it wasn't the end. as long as we are alive. as long as we are restaurateurs and as long as we persevered there will be a way. steve: i know you went to one of the finest culinary schools in america and you know exactly what you are doing and have you written cookbooks and you know exactly what you are doing in that industry. youner in a million years thought you would be open those places to be takeout places. >> no. steve: when they had to be takeout, that's what you did. >> sometimes have you got to do what have you got to do. and this really put that theory

to the test. steve: listen, i have become a big fan. what's your website if people would is unlike to look at how you are doing it down there. >> at chef adrian's.com. steve: all right. very good. adrian calf vo, we thank you for joining us live and telling us how you got through so far the pandemic. >> thank you. so far. steve: so far. good luck to you. thank you. >> thank you. steve: all right. there you go. all right. 7:27 now here in new york city. still ahead, a daughter of a fallen detective honoring his memory by making sweat shirts featuring the thin blue line. but now a local school district is banning that heart felt tribute. that daughter joins us with her message coming up next. ♪ ♪ it's a new dawn... if you've been taking copd sitting down, it's time to make a stand.

fight to honor her police dad carla. thanks so much for joining us. when did you realize this was going to be a problem? >> >> well, they started asking staff to remove their blue line masks and there were a number of staff members who wore these sweat shirts on fridays there is a blue line on the arm. at first i thought it was just going to be the mask. but then it carried over to the sweat shirts. brian: is this the sweatshirt. >> this is the sweatshirt, which you can see it has vale's name and badge number the k 9 patch. it has my dad's name and then it was the thin blue line. this patch is an extra just for my sweatshirt yes. i was 20 days old when my father was killed. brian: my fault. let me just read you what the public school said in response to the fact that they don't want you to wear this anymore. >> it's actually staff that can't wear it. they banned the staff from wearing it. brian: so the kids can? the kids can do whatever they want. >> the kids can the staff maybe

banned. ♪ so have you noticed have they let other things go? >> so, i got a lot of pause on this and one member of the media said the story has gone global because world sees the hypocrisy here. the doctor allowed staff wear a shirt that says vote across it with the names of minorities killed in police incidents and on the back it had the fist allowed up to and including election day while she bans the thing blue line flag. that's the problem here it wasn't until after the election that she sent an email out after she realized her decision was not fairly balanced and now it would all be banned. so that's the problem here. brian: carla, who was the first one to express displeasure with this. were kids complaining?

>> well, you know, the staffers who i have spoken to said that when they were called in, they were told that the flag was a sign of white supremacy; however, the communication that went out from the district said that children expressed concern and if that is the case, this would have been a teachable moment instead of dividing our town. we are in a very, very small town that now is incredibly divided over. this there was an opportunity here to bridge instead of burning down the bridge to help this. brian: wait a second. so law enforcement is white supremacy? >> that again, of course that was never an official statement but i have had more than one staffer come to me and tell me that's what they were told when they were brought in about the mask. brian: what do you plan on doing about this, carla? >> well, we are continuing our fight. we would is unlike to see a more formal apology to say that, you

know, well now both are banned you should be happy? isn't that enough? to make such a broad sweeping decision and make such a huge misstep when you are running the district and in charge of educating an entire district is incredible. and as educators they should be able to look at all four symbols on this sweatshirt in the context in which they were intended. this sweatshirt was created over a year ago. as a symbol to bring my family and the dog family together and people saw the sweatshirt. they loved it. they said hey, can we get one? we created 150 originally. labor of love door-to-door deliveries and don't nateed all to nypd detectives, widows and children and retired police canine foundation since this broke. we have gotten over 400 orders and i literally couldn't keep up. brian: wow. i imagine it's going to only increase. carla, i think you are on the right side of things. not only do i think that it's also a tribute to your dad. on top of that i think you

should be able to wear things that show support of law enforcement without that being controversial. just is unlike some people look at the flag and think that's controversial, which it blows my mind that we are at this point, especially in this state. final thought? >> the staff was allowed to wear one and not the other. and it's hard for me to explain to my children used to seeing the staff wear it on friday why a sweatshirt honoring their grandfather is no longer allowed. brian: it's the district's problem. it's not yours. you are doing the right thing. carla, thanks so much. i appreciate it. >> thank you very much. brian: i know a lot of law enforcement appreciate it that are watching right now. coming up straight ahead. joe biden is all acts of violence attacks on president trump's supporters in our nation's capital. is that enough? rob smith was at the march and responds next. i had enough! it's not getting in my way. joint pain, swelling, tenderness...much better.

[cheers] brian: there you go. we have been telling you about trump supporters targeted by violence this weekend. attacked by fireworks and glass bottles as they attended a million maga march in d.c. steve: yesterday, in a statement issued through his spokesperson joe biden says he continues to, quote: denounce all acts of violence. actually without mentioning antifa or black lives matter or any of the rioters or groups by name, ainsley. ainsley: that's right. our next guest was at the march his name is rob smith the author of always a soldier and host of the rob smith is problematic podcast and joins us now. rob, what do you think? is that enough for him to release a statement saying i denounce all acts of violence? >> well, it's a weak statement. just is unlike joe biden is a weak person overall. it's not if you have to put out this statement after some of the more popular people in the party

have pushed forward, this you know, stay in the street narrative for the past couple months. you had kamala harris smiling when people were out in the streets rioting. had you people is unlike ilhan omar who said that this was a quote, unquote clan rally. this is just not enough from joe biden, especially when some of the more popular people in the party are basically saying that this violence is okay. and, you know even outside of the violence. is unlike i think that we talked a lot about the violence that happened at the million maga march but even outside of that before night fell, this was a very positive group of people. steve: you were there, right? >> i was there and during the day you had black people, white people, whatever, american flags, trump flags, pride flags because the g.o.p. has basically created this sorts of multiracial working class coalition. the episode of my podcast today is called the maga movement isn't going anywhere these 70 million people that voted for president trump are not going to

go anywhere. we are not going quietly into the night and disappear because the left wants us to. it was a very strong show of support for not only the president but for the movement that he has created. brian: hey, rob, the women's march got so much publicity after president trump's inauguration, right? this was bigger. this was peaceful. and you would think that maybe one politician is unlike joe biden would go okay, 72 million people didn't vote for me. it's an all-time record and that march is for a guy that is fighting to win in two or three states so clearly have to win people over. is the way to win people over to say i denounce all violence generically and get back to his basement? >> no, that's not the way to win people over. honestly to be truthful i don't think they want to win people over. this unity and healing i'm not seeing it. i'm not seeing any unity or healing. the only thing i see is the steve and blm wars angry at

trump supporters women being attacked and children being attacked. some of the stuff that happened after the sun went down on saturday night in d.c. was really disgusting. and it's not only on joe biden's to just kind of release this statement condemning it. you also have muriel bowser. where was she? where were the leaders in d.c. to help protect people that were there to exercise their first amendment rights? steve: speaking of leaders, the governor of the great state of california is gavin newsom and he has imposed more restrictions on people in advance of thanksgiving. and as it turns out not long ago he went to a birthday party at the world famous napa valley french laundry where i think dinner starts at $300 a person. and while this particular outdoor dining event did not violate the restrictions at the restaurant per se, they violated what he has been pushing on people and, yesterday, watch this, mr. smith.

he actually apologized. watch. >> as soon as i sat down at the larger table. i realized it was a little larger group than i had anticipated. and i made a bad mistake. the spirit of what i'm preaching all the time was contradicted and i got to own that i want to apologize to you because i need to preach and practice not just preach. and not practice. and i have done my best to do it. we are all human. we all fall short sometimes. steve: well, you know, he saw the table. he could add them up in his head, but he still sat down. >> i still sat down. is he not apologizing because is he sorry he is apologizing. brian: because he got caught. >> because he got caught. whether it's gavin newsom, whether it's andrew cuomo. whether it's lori lightfoot whether it's gretchen whitmer. you have all of these authoritarians trying to place limitations on the lives of

americans. so much as to even tell us that we can't have thanksgiving dinners. but yet they are not doing as they want everybody else to do. so it is the height of hypocrisy. and do you really think that lori lightfoot or this guy. do you think they are going to miss their thanksgiving dinners? i don't think so. is unlike i said he is only apologizing because he got caught. i don't think he is very remorseful. i don't think he is sorry. i think he will probably do it again but he will just make sure that it doesn't get leaked. brian: as he drops his kid off to private school they don't have to do remote learning. he can afford to send them to private school. >> of course. brian: unbelievable. their checks are still clearing the businesses they destroyed and boarded up they have to find a way to make money themselves. good luck with that. >> yeah. absolutely. ainsley: all right. thank you, rob. let's hand it over to janice. she is tracking this huge storm. janice, tell us more about it. janice: unfortunately, yes. this walls another hit to nicaragua in almost the exact

same spot that two weeks ago we had storm of similar magnitude hitting the same region. so this is a catastrophic humanitarian problem. catastrophic flooding and damage from this almost category 5 storm that made landfall last night. it is weakening as it goes over land, but, you know, the flooding potential, the flash flooding and mud slides and unfortunately the damage is going to be incredible in this area. so very sad news for this area, another hit from a hurricane almost a category 5. there is the forecast rainfall. not only nicaragua but now into honduras and bleez. central america really hurting and we need your prayers and donations for this area if you can. real quick for the u.s. a quieter forecast for the great lakes. we do have snow moving in and across the west we are going to see heavy rain and mountain snow so that's going to be the forecast over the next couple of days and it's cool so we're getting a taste of what's yet to come steve, ainsley, brian, back

located. hope you're having a great morning with your other day we'e going to have to educate the media and big tech about the real information, to paraphrase, i'm wondering what's going on here. is someone putting their hand on the scale on what we're supposed to know, understand and which can? steve: well, our lead story continues to be the election and in particular the hand count down in georgia what's interesting is by having this,

and it's got to by statute be concluded by tomorrow at midnight, as they do the hand count as it turns out in a number of the counties, the machine count perfectly matches what they had the first time. so it, you know, it will give some people some solace in knowing that the numbers in particular places were exactly right. griff jenkins is live in d.c. so yesterday with out of nowhere they said, hey, by the way, we found 2600 uncounted ballots. we forgot to plug in the big with counting machine. >> reporter: yeah. they missed a few. steve, brian, ainsley, good morning. the 159 counties are on deadline, as you mentioned, midnight tomorrow night, to do the hand recount. a historic one, georgia's nebraska done -- never done it. but in floyd county nearly 2600 ballots were not tallied. dave sterling, the director of operations in georgia, said this is what happened. watch. >> apparently it looks like a memory card from one of the early vote devices was not

loaded. and normally that would be caught by checks and balances within a county which is the reason the secretary feels like in this particular case this wasn't an egregious thing. and it wasn't discovered billion we dud this -- until we did this audit. >> 1,643 votes were for president trump, 865 for biden. far short of the 14,000 that president trump trails biden by. now, this as the president sounds off on the recount itself saying officials won't let the campaign look at the signature matching, calling on the governor, brian kemp, to get involved. but yesterday georgia's republican from secretary of state shot back saying this -- >> there's no proof to that. in this past year, the election officials were given the gpi signature match training process, and so they're trained at looking at signatures. >> reporter: and then there's

this, the secretary claims that in a private phone call with senator lindsay e graham, the senator pushedded him to find ways to invalidate legal ballots, graham calling the accusation, quote, ridiculous. meanwhile, out west in nevada a special election is called in a clark county election race where the number of voter discrepancies far exceeded the margin of victory. there were 139 discrepancies, and the democrat only led by 10 votes. to the president tweeting: big victory moments ago in the astronaut of nevada. -- state of nevada. the all-democrat commission just -- clark county officials do not have confidence in their own election security. major impact. however, the discrepancy is not likely to impact. clark county has certified all races but for that one commissioner race. now meanwhile, tune in at 9:15, guys, in ""america's newsroom,""

they have georgia's secretary of state. we'll find out more about really where things stand and what this whole lindsey graham he said/he said is all about. brian, ainsley, steve? ainsley: thanks so much, griff. well, yesterday, joe biden did take some questions from reporters at that press conference, and he was talking about the economy, announcing he wants to forgive student loans by $10,000, and he apparently hand selected or his staff did hand selected the reports that were able to is ask questions. is so joe biden doesn't even call on anyone, just randomly pucking people out of the audience. the staffers predetermined who would be able to talk. listen to some of these questions. i was watching bill hemmer yesterday, and he called it a love fest because he broke in to report on this possess conference -- press conference, and he had a panel commenting afterwards. i'll talk about what they had to say after you watch it. look at this montage of the

reporters asking questions. >> what do you see as the biggest threat to your transition right now given president trump's unprecedented attempt to obstruct and delay a smooth transfer of power? >> it doesn't appear that the president is going to come around anytime soon and admit defeat. so what are you going to do? what options do you have to try and insure that you are ready to go on day one? >> i want to get your thoughts on the president's tweet, how did you interpret that, and at the end of the day, do you want him to concede? >> what is your message to republicans who are backing up the president's refusal to concede? >> what is your message to people who are considering, for example, getting together with their families and others for thanksgiving? would you consider -- would you urge people to reconsider their plans? ainsley: so what are you eating for thanksgiving, what flavor ice cream is that. the panel that was with bill, where are the questions about covid-19? i heard that. where are the questions about covid-19 relief for all the people hurting out there? or what about the violence we saw over the weekend in washington, d.c.? those questions were not asked,

brian. brian: right. and what about the tens of thousands of people that showed up in washington, d.c. for your opponent that got 72 million votes is? what message do you have for them to maybe come aboard? his message yesterday on the economy had anything but a sense of compromise. he talked about okaying the heroes act at $3.4 trillion. even nancy pelosi came off that. what about i'm going to talk to mitch mcconnell for coming in for a stimulus panel that's going to work for all sides? what about the minimum wage that'll pretty much double? how could you put a minimum wage in montana the same as florida? small business is on a respirator right now. the last thing you want to do is put that cost on labor. he said he told all the big ceos and big tech firms, get get used to it, the union's going to have a bigger seat at the table. we're going to give you free college and free loans. whos' paying for that? i can't wait to find out. and he also hired a reparations

advocate to talk about hit the ground running. meanwhile, joe concha talked about what he saw and what joe biden has felt in terms of the press, and that is three weeks without a tough question. check that, how about six months without a tough question. listen. >> what's a hard-hitting question when you ask somebody about their policy or what they plan to do about x, y, z. four of the first five questions were about president trump and he's not conceding. i get that completely but, again, this is a preview of things to come over the next four years, hospitable instead of hostiling which we saw under the president. brian: you don't have to make yourself an adversary of the chief executive. but you ask direct questions. if they're good, they want those questions. he's not. by the way, there's a reason why jim acosta gets a two book deal. the president called on him time and time again as did sarah sanders and kayleigh mcenany.

those days, people realize those days are now gone. the reality will slip in soon if the president doesn't find a way in this recount to take the election. steve: you know what, brian? donald trump never got a press conference like that ever in his life. that, what we saw with joe biden yesterday, that would be in donald trump's dream sequence. just imagine, go in and people just ask me questions like that. the aggressive tone of the white house press corps coming up in january, i think that will be out the door because a new guy is in. brian ryan -- brian: yeah, there's no list. president trump never has a list. steve: and fox news, for some reason, is never on that list. meanwhile, speaking of lists, let's take a look at the balance of power in the u.s. congress. and you know that blue wave? it never materialized, as you can see right there. the headline is republicans are in the 200s right there. and when you look at the

republicans that flipped house seats, they picked up wins in california and florida and iowa and michigan and minnesota and new york and oklahoma and utah as well. burgess owens officially flipped the 4th district of utah that a couple of years ago mia love had. it had been blue until he won a couple of days ago, and he said with this particular team, it reminds him of when he went to the super bowl. watch. >> i remember sitting at super bowl 15 with the raiders going out and ready to play the biggest game of my career. i cannot believe i'm sitting here with these guys. well, i feel the same way now. i can't wait for our country to recognize this game-changing team that we're put together and cannot believe i'm sitting with them at a time where our country needs these type of patriots. we have one thing in common, we're proud to be americans.

thank goodness america is now voting for us that believe this is the greatest country in the history of man kind, and we overcome and bring others aboard with us by giving them hope they can do it also. steve that's husband point of view. but, you know, as we were talking yesterday, ainsley e and brian, ilhan omar, the congresswoman, she said, you know, the democrats are one big happy family. that is not true, and, in fact, we were talking earlier about elissa elissa slotkin who won the 8th district of michigan. she said there's no accountability from the speaker, and she won't vote for her. we see what's happening with the republicans, can't wait to see what happens with the democrats, ainsley. ainsley: yeah. a lot of those republicans are saying they feel hike they won because it was a referendum on socialism. we saw so many republicans, so many blue seats that were flipped red. it's pretty incredible. let's talk about the lockdowns, because you have governors around the country that are saying, listen, the numbers are

getting bad when it comes to covuld, so now we're going to lock down. and when it comes to thanksgiving, that's worrying a lot of people. what if you have 15 people? the governor's saying in new york you can't cothat, he's recommending a 10-person cap. well, you have these sheriffs throughout new york that are saying, looking we're not enforcing this. we don't have the resources to go door to door and get search warrants to go into people's houses and see how many people are sitting around their dining room table. but individuals in our state are able to make their own decisions. one of those sheriffs is from fulton county here in new york. listen to this. >> the anxiety that this rule is causing is unbelievable. people believe that the governor and other executives want to use law enforcement as a tool to make them submit. when you try to authorize by executive order that we can count the people and take some sort of action, that remedy is greater than the wrong having

people get together. because, frankly, i is have faith in people in my community to use their intelligence what they know about the covid and make a determination. brian: governor cuomo's not going to like that. i don't know if you heard, but he thinks he's done everything right, and if you disagree with him, you have the right to be wrong. so this sheriff, i'm sure, is going to be targeted, as with other sheriffs that say i agree with you. i'm not going to get in the grill of families who already had eight months dealing with this, leapt alone the election and all the other strife. charles payne understands families and the need for thanksgiving, he weighed in earlier. >> this thanksgiving is when we need each other more than ever before. and the notion that you're going to come to my house and count how many people are there, that is separation of families. it's the most important day of the year, i think, outside of christmas. this time it means so much more. we have been separated. we've been forced apart. i just tell you this isolation

thing is devastating. it's devastating, and they better rethink it. we need this one today to be with our families. steve: and that's what we all want. we're all frustrated, we are all exhausted from the pandemic. but by putting a number on it saying you can only -- you can't have more than 10, it just makes it complicated. what if there are 15 people in your family? what if there are 20 people in your protected bubble? we all know we've got bubbles, people we trust, people who have been checked out and things like that. ultimately, the cdc and the government has given us the information. we understand the risks, ultimately. leapt us make the right decision -- let us make the right decision. brian yeah. don't get into people's houses. don't travel, don't get together, don't play sports, don't go to school, don't go to work. and now, okay, thanksgiving, just go past it. christmas, ignore it. and then you see these mayors partying because joe to biden won. and then you see others getting

their hair done when hair salons are supposed to be closed. we get it, we're not stupid. steve: trust us to do the right thing, ultimately. brian: and they're doing the wrong thing, by the way. ainsley: yeah, i know. we're all trying to do the best we can. we need to follow the rules -- steve: be smart. ainsley: we know how dangers this virus can be. yes, be smart about it e. if you have been hunkered down with your family, you're supposed to kick someone out at thanksgiving? it doesn't make any sense. all right, coming up, the clock is ticking for president trump's campaign to request a recount in wisconsin. will they get one? we'll have trump campaign communications director erin per if lean. that's coming up next. ♪ (music swells) ♪ ♪ (music fades)

♪ ♪ steve: well, this morning we've been telling you about georgia's hand recount, reportedly found about 2600 uncounted ballots. election officials say humor record. so what does -- human error. let's talk to trump campaign press communications director erin perrine. everyone, good morning. >> good morning. steve: okay. so they found, apparently, down in floyd county, georgia, they realized that somebody did not upload from the memory card or memory stick something like 2600 votes. they say it's human error. does that change anything for the trump camp? >> well, this continues to prove what we've been saying all along, that each step we take to protect election integrity, this hand recount in georgia where all of a sudden they have found 2600 additional votes, that's 2600 georgians who almost didn't have their voice heard in the presidential election. this is another step toward us being able to make sure that this is a free and fair election, that we can trust the

results. and while some members of the mainstream media and democrats want to say this is done and over with, not only did we find those 2600 votes in georgia, there were 8,000 additional new votes counted in pennsylvania yesterday. this is still very much ongoing, and on behalf of president trump and the campaign, millions of americans who voted for him, we want to make sure we get this right. steve: right. i saw that the president tweeted out that there was a big victory in charkh county in nevada because -- clark county in nevada because a county commission seat for district c, they were 10 votes apart, and there were some discrepancies, so they decided to look at the options about perhaps rerunning it. the president says that's a big victory. how does that impact the presidential race? the way we read it, president trump is still trailing by 33,000 in nevada whereas this particular case applies to these 10 votes in that one race. >> well, there were 153,000 votes cast in that one race there in nevada, and what we saw

opens up the questions that we have been asking. if there are instances of fraud, if there are discrepancies, if there are irregularities, we should be looking into those. the fact that there are 139 instances of irregular fews in this one case should worry e the american people. people voting twice, that should worry the american people. we want to make sure we get this right because it's so important that we know every vote is counted and counted appropriately are. this is just one instance, and it opens the question for how many more. how many more people voted twice in nevada. we know in the primary in clark county 260,000 ballots were mailed out that couldn't be received. there are a lot of questions in nevada about that huge mass mail-in voting system they tried to implement in the middle of the night, and the discrepancies we're seeing now. steve right. you know, we heard early that there's a possibility that the president's team was going to call for a recount in the state of wisconsin. i think you've got until tomorrow to figure out whether or not you're going to do it.

if you ask for it, it's going to cost the campaign $8 million. what are you going to do? >> i certainly don't have anything to announce on that front at this point. the campaign is continuing to look into irregularities and voting issues in wisconsin. the badger state is one that came for the president in 2016. we felt very good about our ground game and the president's message there. we're going to continue to make sure we look at every issue in wisconsin. we'll have a decision coming in the next, you know, few days here. steve: okay. final question. you know, we've heard some of the president's supporters talk about, you know, we're going to file more things, you'll see more evidence. a lot of people would like to see more evidence. when are we going to see more evidence? >> well, that's part of what our pursuit is at this point, is we are looking into the 31,000 claims -- 11,000 claims we received here on the campaign. weaver working with the counties and the -- we're working with the counties and the state to

look into things like the dominion voting machines, like the fact we did not receive call protection and access to watching the votes be counted in pennsylvania and michigan. we are trying to receive as much information as we can to make sure any discrepancy we see that we can get a firm, definitive answer on what who the winner should be. americans care about the outcome just as much as the validity of that outcome as joe biden's supporters do. there's no silver bullet here. it's going to take a little bit of time, but we're going to make sure we can trust the outcome of this election. steve: all right, erin perrine joining us from the trump campaign, thank you. >> thank you. steve: 8:25 here in new york city. still ahead, it's a hallowed tradition in washington d.c. putting wreaths on the graves at arlington national cemetery. but now the tribute canceled because of of coronavirus. texas congressman deb crenshaw calling -- dan crenshaw is calling for an immediate

bigger than ever. kristina partsinevelos from fox business joins us live at a new york turkey farm struggling to actually keep up with all the orders. why is that, kristina? >> reporter: that is because despite the fact that the pandemic is changing millions of americans' plans, turkey is still on the table. luckily, not these ones. these ones are pardoned. but what's happening as cross america is that steals are rising which is why we came to the poultry farm here on long island -- [background sounds] [laughter] according to krogerer's, the u.s.' largest national grocery chain, they believe more than 40% of american families are planning on having thanksgiving but with immediate households, so much smaller groups. when you have smaller groups, more people wanting smaller turkeys which is why i spoke to the co-owner of this farm to learn more about how her business is doing. listen in. >> this year our turkey sales have, i want to say, tripled.

a lot of small turkeys, medium you are the keys since the covid started. a lot of people have been coming back to the farm to eat, to get their foods. and we were one of the few that did curb service since day one. and you know what in we helped feed the people. >> reporter: feeding the people with turkeys. well, according to butterball, fox business reached out to them x they are a huge provider of turkeys. they said they're survey of about 1,000 adults, one this third plan -- one-third planned to have thanksgiving outdoors. i'll leave this interesting tidbit of information. if you decide to travel and travel safe lu, the tsa says it is allowed. you are allowed to bring cooked or raw turkey in your carry-on as long as it doesn't spread or spill. the things you learn. gobble, gobble, right?

out there. brian, over to you. brian: turkeys facing a very uncertain future. joe biden's denouncing all acts of violence after attacks on president trump's supporters in d.c. this weekend. but is it enough? texas gop if congressman dan crenshaw joins us now. we're end hoping to come together with this president-elect. did he see this as an opportunity, and did he take advantage of it? >> no, i think he saw it as an opportunity to make excuses for the militant wing of the democrat party, right? which is antifa and their more radical counterparts in blm. this has been a problem develop going for -- ongoing for months now. they pretend it doesn't exist, and if they acknowledge it, they downplay what they do, right? they're peaceful protesters. they're against fascism, how could you be against people who are against fascism? well, of course, they're engaging in fascist acts. what if the roles were reversed, right? what if there was some big blm rally in d.c. and they were

advocating for social justice and there was a bunch of right-wingers who waited til nightfall and then they puck weed fights with them and -- picked fights with them and started assaulting these people? every single republican would be asked to denounce by name every single person who dud it, and rightfully so. but that's not what happens with democrats, right? there's a double standard because the media, of course, is the mouthpiece for the dnc. they don't ask them the hard questions. but we have to ask ourselves that question. we have to ask ourselves why the leader of the democrat party, joe biden, you know, an american political party, a major one, will not denounce a terrorist organization operating with on -- here in the u.s. on u.s. soil. brian: well, it says a lot. they're cowards. they wear masks over their face not for protection, but for identity protection, and they punch men with kids in the back of the head when they're not looking. it's the utter definition of being a coward. and as we do these rallies,

you've got to bring security now. there's got to be a bunch of security because you want to bring your family because it's good to show that you care about the country, it's going to get you punched in the back of the head or put your kid in jeopardy, you're going to have to bring security because it look like the cops are not able to protect you. meanwhile, something else is happening. arlington every year has this wreath across america program where wreaths go on those who lost their lives fighting for this country. in the articling cemetery, for example. guess what? because of covid-19, it's canceled. suddenly we can't wear gloves and masks and put wreaths on graves? >> right. it's exactly right. you know, we have this consistent problem with our local and state officials. there's a bias towards extreme action because nobody wants to get blamed for everything, right? because everybody's a cow warksd right? nobody wants to accept the reality of the pandemic.

many learns from past mistakes about lockdowns, what about what works and what doesn't, the enormous cost of lockdowns, so instead of taking a rational look at the benefits, it turns out they're almost nothing. the benefits are just not there. we learned this after months and months and months of trying the same stuff. now arlington cemetery with this emotional reasoning instead of a sophisticated, rational approach. you've got a situation where you take a wreath, and you lay it on a headstone to honor the fallen. you're outside. you're not near anybody. there's other people doing it, of course, but even in normal times it's a naturally social distanced activity. this is exactly what scientists and doctors say should be okay, and yet we have the so-called leader of the arlington national cemetery saying, well, we can't do it, it's just not safe. we're just going to cancel it this year and not remember our fallen, not honor them, not learn about what it is that we're, that we're doing on

wreaths across america. why? and they need to explain this, why would you choose emotional reasoning over sophisticated, rational reasoning? i want to hear that from them i want to hear why we shouldn't honor the falling, i want the hear their scientific reasoning for it. just like across the country all these governors, all these local officials now shutting people down again, destroying people's livelihoods. have we learned nothing in all this time? in fact ors we have learned a lot. the data shows these lockdowns do not do what they're promised to do. the data shows they cost an enormous amount on society both in heller terms because people aren't getting screenings they need, increased suicide, increased domestics violence, schools shutting down has enormous costs, businesses are going under. these governing officials just don't care. small businesses are begging them, and they just don't care. because they prefer this bias towards action because they're

cowards. and as americans, we need to hold them accountable. brian: and my last thought is the irony. many of those men and women lost their lives because they fought against with the surge in iraq or against the nazis in world war ii overcoming the odds, and it's too dangerous for us to put ruth on their headstone. what has happened? what has happened to the people in charge of this country? no guts. dan, thanks so much, appreciate it. talk to you soon. coming up, nearly 2600 uncounted ballots found during georgia's recount. what the discovery means for the president's legal fight over the election results. trey gowdy's next. it's an important time to save.

from over this morning. steve: statewide joe biden leads president trump by approximately are 14,000 votes in georgia. 49.5 versus 49.2, ainsley. ainsley: that's right. and here now is fox news contributor, former house oversight committee chairman and author of "does it hurt to ask," mr. trey god duh. hey, trey, good to see you. >> how are you? ainsley: good morning. from a law school standpoint -- legal standpoint, what is the path here? >> well, the path for republicans needs to be every legal vote is counted and no unlawful of vote is counted and, ainsley, that needs to be true whether it's fraud or simply a mistake, it needs to be true whether the errors are consequential or dispositive or not. i mean, we should have zero margin for error in something as important as our presidential election. so, true, 2600 votes would not be sufficient to change the

outcome in georgia. but my interest is not just in changing outcomes, it is making sure the next election, this one and the next one we can all have confidence in it. so keep going based on the evidence. brian: how much longer do you think he has? >> until states begin to certify their election results, and then i guess on december the 14th when the electoral college meets. but, you know, it is the not, to me, just about the election we just had. ing i mean, if memory serves, we have two more elections coming up in georgia in january, and sure i enough, we're going to have another presidential election. we should have zero acceptance for error whether it's fraud or mistake in our presidential elections. steve: well, trey, you know there are so many stories out there and so many suggestions that a lot of rumors about what may or may not is have happened. and so, you know, we're still in that gray area right now. but going forward once it's all sorted out and figured out, there are going to be a lot of people who do not accept

whatever the result is. >> right. which is why the only word you hear me use is evidence. i can't, i mean, i can't traffic in rumors, i can't traffic -- i have to be able to cross-examine it. so that's why i like the courtroom. there are rules, you present your case. look, television's easy. i can say what i want on television, but cross-examine the evidence. so for everyone who has claimed x, at some point there needs to be an accounting for what you claimed, and there needs to be a consequence if you have overstated your case, which is why you never hear me say widespread fraud. i don't want isolated instances or mistakes. it doesn't have to be fraud for me. even an innocent calculation error, i don't want us to have those in presidential races. ainsley: just count all of the ballots. we all deserve to know this it's a fair process p democrats and republicans alike.

all right, so do you think the mail-in votes going forward, you mentioned the election in four more years, we'll be talking about another presidential election in the next few years. do you think we'll continue to see these democratic states especially, the democratic governors push the mail-in ballots? >> yeah -- ainsley: even after corona? >> oh, of course, because it's advantageous to them. so our forefathers, for reasons i don't fully understand, left it up to the states. although congress, ainsley, can get involved. if california's going to decide to harvest votes and meanwhile republican states will be criticized for even asking you to show an id e when you vote, so this is going to be all at the astronaut level. but, d at the state level. democrats are going to do whatever's easiest for them to win elections. brian: w5eu9ing to see what's happening with the durham probe. here is what jim jordan hopes for. >> mr. durham is doing his work.

i expect that some kind of report, some kind of investigation here real soon, like you, i am frustrated that it didn't happen sooner. but, hook, you and i can't put anyone -- we can't prosecute anyone, we can't indict anyone, all we can do is get the facts out to the american people. the justice department has to do that. i'm hopeful they're going to have something real soon for the american people. brian: sean davis at the federalist tweets out according to his sources the durham probe investigation will not be released. he's dropping it. he's worried about blowback from joe biden. if that is, indeed, true, can that happen? can you pay for a probe and not come forward with any conclusions? >> that would be shocking to me. i mean, john durham's never struck me as someone who's afraid of joe biden or president trump or anyone else. you know, federal prosecutors don't serve at the pleasure of presidents. i mean, these career prosecutors can keep going. it's going to be really bad for the country for us to have been led to believe that this

defunnive accounting is coming and then have it not come. whatever the results are, produce what you found for the last two years. steve: exactly. there may not be indictments, but at least let us see, and this goes back to your earlier testimony, counselor, the evidence. >> yeah. i mean, indictment, that's the highest form of sanction we have in our culture. i don't like malfeasance, i don't like negligence. i mean, if people abuse their position, it may not be indictable, but we still need to know about it. we've got of to have confidence in the fbi. so john durham, whatever you found good, bad or indifferent, you need to present it. my sense is he's not afraid of joe biden or anyone else, so i hope that report wrong, and i hope jim jordan is right, and jim usually is right. steve: very good. ainsley: trey, thank you so much for joining us. yes, ma'am, thank you. ainsley: you're welcome. coming up, our next guest is making history as the first woman elected to represent

in the u.s. house and congratulations, you are the first female senator in the state of wyoming. i'm sure that feels great. what are you top priorities? >> well, it's such an honor to serve wyoming in the u.s. senate. i plan to work on several issues including matters to try to reduce our to the debt and our deficit. i also plan to explain to my colleagues about bitcoin. i know there isn't much known about bitcoin, especially in the congress, so i want to make sure everybody understands that this is a great store of value. it's something that americans can use to diversify their assets and to make sure that they haves assets that don't have inflation built into them just the way the u.s. dollar does. ainsley: what are the folks in your state saying about this election? i know that it's trump country. he won 70.38% and biden got

26.72%. >> the people in wyoming are so supportive of president trump, and we want to see this election turn out in a way that is insuring the integrity of the election. that every vote that should be counted counts and every vote that was cast in an illegitimate manner is thrown out. it's absolutely critical that we have voter integrity. so even though wyoming is a state that overwhelmingly supported president trump, in states that chose the other candidate we want to make sure that the ballots were equally well considered and counted accurately. ainsley: yeah. when do you think we'll know the results? you know, a final decision? >> i don't think we'll know until just before the electoral college meets. so i expect that it will be several weeks before the various

state canvassing boards gather to certify all the elections. and, of course, we've got a major recount going on in georgia and another election coming up in georgia on january 5th. hopefully to reelect kelly loeffler and dan perdue to the u.s. senate. that way republicans will hold the majority in the u.s. senate, and we can continue to move forward in ways regardless of who the president is to enhance our ability to grow our economy, to move out of covid with a massive warp speed vaccination program that the trump administration began and really to get our nation back on track. ainsley: all right. senator-elect, thank you so much for joining us. congratulations, we wish you the best in washington. >> thanks very much, ainsley. ainsley: you're welcome. have a good day. more "fox & fox and straight ah. ♪
