5 inches. i'm not sure if we will need a second source. i will say 18 feet, 5. it will be frazier fir. steve: it's that height because how tall the room is they will put it in it goes up to the tippy top. brian: thank everyone who watered it for the last years. steve: 50 years probably. glad you are join us. glad you are on board. talk about the top story. another milestone reached in the fight against the coronavirus. astrazeneca pharmaceutical says vaccine is up to 90% effective and that's very important. ainsley: promising news this morning. it comes as new lockdown restrictions, however, hitting nationwide in the united states. and in los angeles, you have that all-in person dining going to be banned on wednesday. just before thanksgiving. here in new york, the governor, andrew cuomo put parts of his

state on notice for more restrictions. as the cases here are surging, brian. brian: yes. tuption going to be bad news for upper manhattan, long island and staten island. meanwhile, nevada is under a statewide pause, ordering restaurants and bars to resume operations. i don't know if you can pause on writing your check to your land lord, too. from 50% to 2025% capacity and requiring people to wear a face mask around others in their outside their immediate household both indoors and outdoors. oregon, they want to continue. governor is tell residents to call the police on those violating covid-19 rules like for for example those rioters in oregon maybe portland we could call the police there and stop the tearing down of police stations that might be a nice start. steve: it seems what they're interested n california and other spots of the country essentially keeping people from social mixing and drinking as well. because that has been shown to be one of the things that caused the infection rate to just

skyrocket. we have had in this country 1 million new cases in the last 10 days. meanwhile, when we saw you on friday, we told you the cdc was suggesting if you can, do not travel. plan on spending your thanksgiving at home, if you can, with people from your household. because it's when the different households get together that it causes problems. we have also heard that airplanes, when you are on the airplane, that's safe, relatively low chance of infection. but it's the milling about at the airport, ainsley, that's the problem. ainsley: yeah. if you look at the numbers. at love people did travel over the weekend, not as many as last year. friday,. steve: not a lot of social distancing there. ainsley: you are right. saturday, a little less than a million. 984,036. but if you compare that to last year, i got numbers on the tsa

travel check point remember side it. said last year there were almost 5 million. almost 2 million this year almost 5 million last year. no not as many, the airlines are losing money but still a lot of people. >> there is a loft people. when you see what's happening in newport beach over the weekend where people just got together and they said we are protesting. this and you see what happened in buffalo, new york. they basically kicked out health officials and said we are protesting. this in california with the economy is flat on its back and put together blue ribbon panel find a way economically to keep people together people like bill gates are on it and the head of apple and tom steyer heads it up. they came up with almost no suggestions. in fact, bob iger resigned when they said you are not even allowing us to reopen up disney. so people are fed up. also, the university of mass mass comes out with a study and they say we have to amend our mask study. they might not be as effective as we originally thought when it comes to wearing masks. that's when people look at the

lawmakers and seat double life that they're leading and do one thing and tell us to do another. they sit there and oppress these businesses and shut them down. they basically in 8 months have come up with one idea. shut everything down and if everything comes to worse shut everything down. can you imagine how fed up people are but dr. yet says shut everything down. >> the best things we should do is try to comply with the cdc guidelines. that is do not travel right now. it's just not worth the risk. especially if you are a high risk patient. stay home. stick within your bubble. don't go outside unless it's necessary. don't travel unless it's truly necessary. especially right now with the cold weather. the temperatures are decreasing. the hospitalizations are increasing. the fatalities are increasing. hospitals are full. we were able to take a pause with holiday celebration and easter. we can do it one more time because, remember, that vaccine is just weeks away. we really need to do the best we

can to protect ourselves. steve: she makes such a good point we are so close to having that vaccine. they are going to start inoculating the people on the front lines and the elderly people who have co-morbidities, easy for me to say. and they are saying by, i think may, everybody in this country should be able to have had a vaccination. you know, my wife cathy and i looked at all the, you know, the risks involved. we decided it's just going to be the two of us for thanksgiving. never had a thanksgiving like that. but next year is going to be better. and i know that having gone to the grocery store about 50 times in the last two weeks. i know that it's almost impossible to get a small turkey. or a turkey breast. because people aren't having the big parties. they are going to be alone with the people who live at the house they live in. ainsley: i think most people are -- they see all sides of this. and they just want to be safe. we want to follow the cdc

guidelines as dr. nesheiwat was saying. we want to be safe and we want to listen to the experts and the doctors. but when it comes to eating outside. the governor of your state, steve, he was chained outside becaus -- -- he wasshamed outsi. they didn't have the mask on. steve: they were eating. ainsley: if you are eating you can take. according to the experts haring to get it outside than inside. he was following the rules. so many friends in new york saying we are so tired of this we want to fault rules but we are so sick of this. we have been inside. many people are decorating their houses for christmas early because they are so bored inside. you know, everything -- no one is going out here in new york at least. not as many people i should say. brian: right. a lot of people's lives are being ruined. livelihoods are being destroyed because politicians who still get paid anyway are making these oppressive rules that aren't necessarily proven that effective. so let's talk about joe biden and what he plans on doing as

president-elect if everything continues to go through the way it is. not to the surprise of many. anthony and his long-time aid helped him out as vice president is expected to be named, they say he is centrist for a democrat. secretary of state. jake sullivan not that big of a surprise will be national security adviser. this will be official as late as tuesday or as early as tuesday and a possible u.n. ambassador will be linda thomas-greenfield who has a lot of experience as well. steve: that's right. these are names that fox news has been told are pretty much a done deal. we will not, however, know until tomorrow when the appointments are officially announced. ainsley: and they have to get confirmed. steve: they do. that's why they are going more for the centrists than the radicals. so far what we have seen, we haven't seen any of those radical names, ainsley. brian: national security adviser doesn't have to be confirmed, flight just gets named. ainsley: did i read anthony

blinken is a moderate served as intermediary for biden and the progressives. even though is he considered moderate he is trying to work with the progressives. he grew up in paris or high school in paris and went to harvard, columbia law school and his father was the ambassador to hungary. steve: sullivan the national security council he worked at hillary clinton's state department. he was essentially her closest strategic adviser and so jake sullivan is going to be in there. and the interesting thing about linda thomas greenfield who spent 35 years in foreign service. the united nations ambassador job will be restored to a cabinet level post. after it was removed from being a cabinet level post. ainsley: all right. well, lisa booth is reacting to. this listen to what she says. >> i think the biggest difference we are going to see is the days of putting america first will be over. it's going to be putting america last again. i think one of the best examples

of that is the paris climate accord. and joe biden has said that if he -- is indeed ends up being the president. that what is he going to do is sinus back into the paris climate agreement on day one. and, remember when president trump pulled out of it, he said it's because he represents the citizens of pittsburgh. not paris. but that's not the way that joe biden views things. brian: when they were doing the debates. when they were talking about this. they never talked about foreign policy. this is one of the most frustrating things to voters who legitimately were undecided. joe biden's foreign policy has been terrible. bob gates has pointed that out, his former secretary of defense that worked with him. he has been wrong with everything over the last 40 years. he will rejoin the iran nuclear arms deal. israel already said you better not. saudi arabia said you got to be kidding me. return to the pairs climate deal. fantastic. taxpayer dollars over to other developing countries. abandon plans to leave the who, fawsk fantastic.

still not being honest with their own staff. half of which got the virus and not even telling people. and bans funding of aide groups that discuss abortions. guess who is really excited about biden china. finally get rid of america first. if the two nation could say have aligned in research and development of effective virus medications and vaccines and life-saving medical equipment kept 0e7 vital supply chains in the past month instead of the opposite many lives in the u.s. and else where could have been saved. says they should work together. really? they still have not told us how this virus started. they still have not let scientists in. they still haven't been transparent about how this happened and nor have they taken blame. in fact they blamed us and last week they blamed its. now we are going to turn the page and start working with china. fantastic. this is going to work out great. steve: that's what happens when a new administration comes in. brian: i know. steve: i was talking with some of my friends in republican politics at the highest level over the weekend. they said right now all of their

emphasis is on making sure that the republicans hold the senate. and it all comes down to the state of georgia where in the first week of january, they will have those twin run-off elections for two seats. now, if the democrats win both, essentially it would be -- that would be best cases scenario for them because then it would be a 50/50 tie kamala harris the incoming vice president would then break any ties. republicans just need to win one and so they are trying to mobilize. the biden campaign has actually shifted people from the campaign to go to georgia and the incoming president's chief of staff revealed whether or not joe biden will go to georgia before the run-off elections. hire'here's the answer, watch. >> winning those two senate seats in georgia is important. we are going to do everything we can to help those two candidates. we have already moved people who were working on the biden campaign on the recounts down there over to be supportive in

the field work for our two candidates down there. and i expect you will see the president-elect travel down there before elections day. steve: okay. so the president-elect will travel down there. we don't know for sure if the president, donald trump, will travel down there. but we do know yesterday the president's campaign asked for a third recount of the georgia vote. so for a third time, ainsley, they are going to scan those ballots. ainsley: listen, everyone is pouring money into this state from all over the country. you have these celebrities. they have something called win both seats. bush is one of the co-founders from one frey tree hill the actress. a lot of celebrity engagement in that state. george clooney maxed out the $10,000 that he could give to the state. they want to win because then they would have -- the democrats would have the house and the senate and the presidency pretty likely. steve: unified government. ainsley: exactly. republicans know the importance of this. doug collins who is former congressman, he reacted on all this outside money flowing in to

georgia. >> outside money is flowing into georgia right now because they want chuck schumer to fundamentally change the senate. they want fundamentally to take away the investigative powers of ron johnson and lindsey graham and others to into the things. they do not want big tech oversight and all these things. that's why georgia is so important. we do believe we are going to have our folks turn out. they are seeing it. it's tough they are wanted to make sure the president's race. ainsley: i said former congressman he actually is a congressman. he lost that senate race to kelly loeffler who is in the runoff january 5th. so he has a few more months to be congressman. brian: the republicans never lost a run off elections but everything is different now. we know about the money pouring. in jon ossoff is now pretending to be pro-gun which is interesting the democratic one, he's not. raphael warnock's anti-military stance is really not resonating well with a very military oriented with a lot of bases. a lot of military bases in georgia in particular.

and i think it's republicans understand the need here. but with the president continuing to ask for recounts that's a tax-pair funded recount. that could hurt the republicans' hope to focus on the re-election and kelly loeffler on with us friday says she has been in contact with the president and indications are the president is going to go down there. there are certain areas of georgia he can be a real help. areas of georgia wanted to make sure that state is not blue or reaffirm it is still red in this last election is aberration. hard to overstate how important this election is to the future of the country. ainsley: brian, really quickly, she is in quarantine now because i think she positive test but then they think maybe a false positive. steve: we don't know. ainsley: that's hard when you are in the run-off. such an important run-off. steve: hard to leave the house. brian: thom till liz was able to overcome it. steve: 6:16 in new york city.

look who else is on the mezzanine level. jillian: positive and inconclusive. that's what that was. look at this, a fox news alert now. two people killed in a church stabbing. police responding overnight to the grace baptist church in san jose, california. at least one other person is hurt. there were no services going on at the time. police say homeless people were brought inside to get them out of the cold. police have not confirmed an arrest. the trump campaign filing an appeal after a judge knicks their lawsuit to block pennsylvania's vote certification. and in michigan, a republican canvasser could delay today's vote certification. norman shingle is reportedly weighing to block the decision following voting system glitches in the state which the trump campaign alleges is linked to voter fraud. it comes as president trump's legal team says attorney sidney powell does not represent the president. powell alleging dominion voting systems tampered with election results. lots of updates there air b and b executive reportedly resigns over concerns about the

company's data sharing policy with china. the "wall street journal" reports former trust officer sean joyce stepped down last year over the company allegedly sharing data with the chinese government without users' consent. joy says air b bb co-founder not here to promote american values. the spokesperson says it is committed to being transparence about its policies. week 11 of the nfl the kansas city chiefs are reminding everyone why they are super bowl champs. >> great protection again. mahomes to the end zone. wide open. touchdown kelsey. jillian: looks so easy, right in the chiefs scoring with just 28 seconds left to want to radars 35-31. the colds got their own dramatic finish beating the packers in overtime 34-31. new orleans saint acing first nfl start with a 24-9 win over the falcons. meanwhile the cowboys ended their four game losing streak

beating the vikings 31-28. so they are now tied for the division lead after the eagles fell to the browns 22-17. and the washington football team beat the bengals 20-9. alex smith getting first win 20-18 leg injury but it was bittersweet because take a look at this play right here. bengals rookie quarterback joe burrow tearing his acl right there. is he going to be out for the season. shortly after he sent out a tweet, i mean it just got so much attention everyone is like oh no. you knew it when he was getting carted off the field. that quickly. brian: number one pick. the hope on his shoulders. once again i think of bill hemmer because is he mr. cincinnati. thanks, jillian. straight ahead, ainsley. ainsley: joe biden will reveal his first batch of cabinet members tomorrow. will he extend an olive branch to the progressive left? our next guest says don't bet on it.

♪ >> you are going to see the first of the president-elect's cabinet appointments on tuesday of this week. if you want to know what cabinet agencies they are, who is going to be in those cabinet agencies, you will have to waited for the president-elect to say that himself on tuesday. brian: all right. with president-elect set to name his first cabinet picks tomorrow, will his personal picks reflect any concessions to progressives? let's ask emily larson. so far from what we have seen already, do you see that him

trying to please already all comers or just moderates. >> sure. i think biden's picks so far his rumored picks are definitely a point to make sure that he has people that he knows who have been loyal to him and who are extremely experienced in these incredibly important positions. it's very interesting though because biden, unlike a lot of candidates, he ran more moderate in the primary than he did in the general. as soon as it was clear that he was going to be the democratic nominee, he adopted some of the positions from bernie sanders and elizabeth warren on bankruptcy reform and on paying for college, offering some years of free college. but it's not clear that now that the election is over that's going to necessarily translate into getting some o all of the e sanders and elizabeth warren in places of power. brian: well, i have got news for you some people are going to be really disappointed with your

assessment for example aoc. >> sure, yeah. and aoc. brian: let's hear her talk. >> um-huh. brian: okay. >> we're not going to forget about that agreement for the sake of an election, are we? >> no. >> no. what we're going to do is we are going to organize and demand that this administration, which i believe is decent and kind and honorable keep their promise. so that's what our next move is. to make sure that the biden administration keeps its promise. brian: youhow are they going too that. >> continue being very vocal about issues. she was with the sunrise movement, a progressive organization talking about climate policy. and that's something, you know, she by peered the whole green new deal idea of the green new deal. so she is going to continue pushing for that even with some of these picks that are rumored to be, tomorrow the secretary of

state state pick. member of the squad rashida tlaib says that pick is somebody that she hopes will allow her to speak up for palestinian issues. so she is sort of sending an issue on that. but joe biden gave a very clear signal last week when he was asked about treasury secretary. he says he has made that pick. a lot of people were hoping, perhaps, elizabeth warren would be that pick. he said that this person is going to appease all factions of the of the democratic party, which is not necessarily a very good signal for the people who are hoping elizabeth warren would be the pick. brian: well, with republican governor, why would she be the pick? it would throat balance of the senate. even in vermont, bernie sanders they have republican governor get someone who would caucus with democrats. i just can't see it. janet yellen is considered one of the favorites for treasury. michelle for know is basically considered almost a given now.

as secretary of defense. which would please a lot of republicans. the other problem is, you do have to please republicans. even if it's 50-50. they got to be 50-50 in committee. if you put someone real radical onto the left, the republicans will reject. don't you think that figures into it, emily? >> the results of the election are definitely factoring into this. not only the fact that you have to please republicans. but, also the elections said a lot about the country. even though biden won the presidency. the democrats lost seats in the house. a lot of those flipped seats have been blamed on divisive rhetoric like defund the police. n. opposition to more progressive ideas. that gives progressives a lot less leverage now that biden has actually staffing up his administration. brian: yep. that may be the writing. some people may not see that writing as something factual for

example aoc and the expanded squad. they think they have more power and that's where the rubber hits the road. it will be interesting to see this family fighting. emily, thanks so much. >> thank you. >> just ahead on this show. before thanksgiving, nashville is banning gatherings of 8 or more people. can the city's economy survive these new restrictions? we will talk to the owner of the famed bar honky tonk central next.

ainsley: president trump anti-globalism pro-police campaign message might have had a huge impact on america's growing hispanic population as politico reports his margins improved in 78 of the nation's 100 majority hispanic counties. brian: what an amazing story under appreciated. you most la teen knows identify first as working class americans and trump spoke to that hispanic men are very entrepreneurial. their economic language is more aligned with the way republicans speak. pulling yourself up by your boot straps. owning your own business. steve: here to discuss fox news contributedder rachel campos-duffy. we are going to dial her. in rachel, good morning to you. >> good morning and happy thanksgiving to all of you. steve: good morning to you. happy thanksgiving week. in the run up to the election we heard the message of defund the police. boycott goya foods. you don't want me to turn the country into a socialistic

country. that's what we heard from parts of the left. meanwhile, what was it, rachel, about trump's message that resonated with so many latinos? >> truly, it was an economic message. although socialism was very important as well. but, you know, look. donald trump gave the g.o.p. an incredible makeover. it used to be the party of the chamber of commerce. the party of big corporate, big business interest. it is now the party of the american worker. and if you talk to hispanics, people like in my family, they will tell you that they are blue collar american workers. steve: um-huh. rachel: this message is very powerful. my family came from a copper mining town up in the mountains of arizona. this message of orienting the republican party towards increasing the wages of the lower class and that means taking on china and also the border. donald trump, i think, has really done an effective job of explaining why securing our border and changing our

immigration policies is actually a blue collar american policy that increases the wages for the working class. so, this is a really powerful message and moving forward the republicans would be smart to embrace this makeover and to make sure that people like mitt romney and the venture capitalists and the chamber of commerce wing that is now support of the biden administration doesn't come and take another takeover of the republican party because this is a real threat to the dominance that the democrat party has had over hispanics. and they are worried, be very clear, they are very worried. what they have right now, they are left with identity politics. that's all the democrats have left on hispanics, because if you look at every other issue, abortion, religious liberty. all the other pro-family culture issues, they're on the side of the republican party. ainsley: rachel, what do you think of kate brown? she is the governor of oregon. she said call the cops if you see people violating covid

restrictions. she says this there is no different than what happens if there is a party down the street and keeping everyone awake. what do neighbors do? they call law enforcement because it's too noisy. this is just like that. it's like a violation of of a ne ordinance. i understand if there is a party that's not allowed. what, in your case, you have a family of 11 what if the restrictions are 10 and someone called the cops. steve: sorry, sean, beat it. >> yeah, we are already violating all kinds of not just thanksgiving rules but apparently we are environmental terrorists too for having this too many children. there are many things that the duffy family has violated. look, they also turn people their neighbors n china and in the soviet union. this is so unamerican. and right now just keeping your family thanksgiving tradition seems like a act of civil dies disobedience. i say the home is sacred. what we do inside of our homes is our business. and i want the government out of

it. believe me big government, marxism, this is a one space they have been trying to penetrate for a long time which are american families. i can tell you, this brian, ainsley, and steve, americans care more about their grandmothers and their parents more than the government. they know how to take the right precautions to care for grandma whether it was -- i know people self-quarantining ahead of thanksgiving holidays. they are driving instead of flying. people know how to do. this and they don't need the government or nosey neighbors turning them in. brian: meanwhile, the same state, i believe, according to reports where portland is located where go ahead and loot. don't report. and let's defund the cops but let's call them because the johnsons are violating the mask policy. sounds great. also what i think is important about the hispanic community and the president. he will didn't pander. this is what he believed about venezuela. this is what he believes about cuba. this is what he believes about americans they want to be entrepreneurs. i'm going to make it easier for them and family values.

and in turn the hispanics recognized it. unlike most things in politics today they hone it to what they think a group of people want. that's why people were surprised the hispanic community came over, just my humble opinion but i'm irish and italian. rachel: brian, such a great point. the message that donald trump gave hispanics is the same message he gave to rural voters, to all americans. you are right, he wasn't pandering. it was a pro-police hispanic light security. hispanics want 50% of the border police. so that message was powerful. but you are absolutely right. hispanics are entrepreneurial, they start businesses at three times the rate of the average american. donald trump appealed to them as americans not as hispanics. steve: all right. rachel campos-duffy with the family of 11 good luck going to the grocery store and getting a 75-pound turkey today. brian: give her a ticket. rachel: hopefully that's still legal to do it. brian: we will give you a summons. a warning.

steve: rachel, thank you very much. rachel: thank you. steve: you bet a dozen minutes before the top of the hour and we have some headlines. jillian: good morning. a 15-year-old boy is arrested in connection with with a wisconsin mall shooting that sent eight to the hospital. the teen allegedly opened fire inside the mall outside milwaukee and ran out with the panicked crowd. it happened on friday. police say shooting was due to an altercation. officers found a gun during his arrest. several others were taken into custody. but no other details were given. all 8 victims suffered non life-threatening injuries. we will keep you updated. colorado lawmakers hope space force will call their state home. six locations being considered for the headquarters recently released including peterson air force base in colorado springs. the command's temporary headquarters. congressman doug lamb born saying quote the space related industry and academic ecosystem throughout the front range is a unique asset to the united states. and put the state of coloradod

officers leaving this year. now, the city council is set to meet today where they are expected to cut the budget by 17%. and new york city at least one person is killed and 6 injured in an overnight shooting at an apartment building. it's unclear what led up to that violence in brooklyn and no arrests have been made. this is the latest in a long list of violent crime putting big apple residents on edge. including a man using a flame thrower on top of a city bus. and a woman being pushed on to subway tracks. now she survived after rolling between the tracks. now, just hours after this, a man in harlem was robbed and shot at point blank range. he died at the hospital and in los angeles police marked a grim milestone tweeting in part a number we have not seen in over a decade. 300 homicides in a year. that includes four murders over the weekend. the department is asking for help from residents to curb the violence saying names can remain anonymous. and in chicago at least five

people were killed and at least 44 hurt in weekend violence. now, the city is on pace to pass 700 gun violence deaths this year. it's done that only twice since 1998. brian? brian: all right. >> thank you so much, carley, appreciate it. steve? steve: thank you, brian. some really good news on the medical front when it comes to the coronavirus vaccine. but when can we expect to actually be able to roll up our sleeves and get the shots? here's what the head of operation warp speed had to say about rolling out pfizer' vaccine. >> our plan is to be able to ship vaccines to the immunization sites within 24 hours from the approval. so i would expect maybe on d.a. two after approval on the 11th or on the 12th of december. steve: that would be great. so how soon can we expect to get back to normal whatever normal is going to look like? here to discuss is fox news medical contributor and author

of that great book "covid, the politics of fear and the power of science" dr. marc siegel. dr. siegel, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. steve: so we are hearing that the first wave of shots could come in mid december. but, here's the thing. you need two shots. so when does your immunity kick in, right after the first shot or after the second shot? >> steve, the news gets better by today. because today we have a third vaccine that's coming onto the picture the oxford astrazeneca vaccine and also 70 to 90% effective depending on the dosing. exciting day for covid-19. in terms of the pfizer vaccine shown to be 95% effective. you get a lot of that effectiveness after the first shot but get the total 59% three weeks later after the second shot. that's a challenge because the vaccine has to be stored very, very cold in dry ice. but guess who is up to that challenge? the military. and operation warp speed, the chief operating officer person

that is a four star general for his entire career is right on this issue of you who to get the ultra cold vaccines distributed. steve: that will be great. so they are talking about the pfizer shot which has got to be kept at 70 degrees below zero would roll tout institutions like va hospitals or hospitals or law enforcement places where they have the super freezers where the pfizer shot, that is the pfizer shot whereas the moderna just in a regular freezer. the astrazeneca shot, i was reading dr. siegel doesn't have to be kept cold which is great for people in developing country dries that do not have refrigeration. >> exactly. steve, by the way we have a deal operation warp speed has a deal with astrazeneca for 100 million doses. you asked at the top here when are we all going to be vaccinated all three of these vaccines it looks like the spring. i think early to mid spring if we just hang on and take precautions and get this loaferred the amount of -- lowe,

we are going to get there vaccine healthcare workers, federal workers. five groups of federal workers are going to be vaccinated under this program. by the spring everybody will be vaccinate you had sprinvac. steve: we are getting so close. the cdc said on friday if you can, don't travel this holiday season during thanksgiving in particular. we are seeing all sorts of spikes. there were a million new cases in 10 days of coronavirus. and when you look at the tsa numbers. over 1 million people traveled through checkpoints on friday. close to that on saturday as well. and then we showed earlier one of the images of one of the airport terminals, you know, they say the air on the airplane is relatively clean and is, you know, it's going through hepa filters, but when you cannot social distance from people in line with you, that makes it complicated to go to the airport. >> steve, as usual, you stole my point. you know what? i was exactly going to say that

a study out of the department of defense shows that airplanes with the hepa filters and filtration if you wear a mask is pretty safe. in the airport everybody is huddling together and same thing on trains and in train stations. i would urge people to travel as little as possible. wear your mask, keep distancing, and go to small gatherings. but to rachel campos-duffy's point, nobody cares about grandma more than you do. the government doesn't care about grand mat way that we do. let's keep the science in place here and let's follow the rules, the public health rules as much as possible until we got the vaccine. steve: real quick, you know, the quickie test that you can get at all sorts of doc in a box places. those places are so busy right now because kids are coming home from college. they want to make sure that if they are going to be exposed to grandma that they keep her safe. everybody it seems like is getting the covid test to make sure they don't have it. >> i agree with that point, too, steve. if you can before you travel if you are going to travel, get that covid test.

get the rapid antigen test especially because you are going to be going to other people. you don't want to bring grandma that covid. absolutely i agree with getting tested before traveling. steve: dr. siegel thank you for joining us on this monday morning. >> my pleasure. steve: it is 7:00 in new york city and this is "fox & friends." ♪ ainsley: new lockdown nationwide before thanksgiving. >> hardest. they have got to shut down at 11:00 p.m. it's ridiculous. no science to this. jillian: tommy president-elect joe biden. >> diversity of ideology. diversity of background. >> the proble the plan is to beo ship vaccines on the 11th or 12th of december. >> this is what we need, no more social distancing, no more masks, no more shutdowns and lock downs. >> do you want people calling police on the neighbor. >> yes. this is no difference if there

is a party down the street and keeping everyone away. >> this is so unamerican and right now keeping your thanksgiving tradition seems like an act of civil disobedience. brian: today is going to be exciting at the white house because the first lady will receive the 2020 christmas tree that's going to be 18 feet 5 inches. ♪ have a holly jolly christmas ♪ it's the best time of the year ♪ i don't know if there be snow. brian: no christmas music until after thanksgiving. but i guess it's significant because maybe this is as close we will ever get to a christmas tree a wide shot. steve: you are looking live at fox square right in front of our building where you noticed it was dark and it is pouring today. ainsley: it is. steve: i know on this monday. the shortened workweek monday of thanksgiving 2020. ainsley: send us your messages. send us pictures of your

christmas tree foxnews.com if you have already decorated. brian? brian is not going to shame you if you have. steve: i was at home depot last weekend and they had all the christmas trees up. once again, one holiday at a time, please. but it's so 2020. ainsley: we are welcoming it. i feel like. at least my family is new lockdown restrictions hitting the u.s. nationwide in los angeles all in person dining will be banned wednesday just before thanksgiving. in new york, governor andrew cuomo put parts of his state on notice for more restrictions as cases are surging here. brian: is he great at putting people on restriction and yelling at them in the process. nevada is under a statewide pause ordering restaurants and bars to reduce operations from half full to 25% full and requiring people to wear a face mask around others outside their immediate household both indoors and outdoors. steve: all about your bubble. kate brown that woman there telling residents if they see somebody violate covid-19 rules and it's dangerous, to call the

police. meanwhile, in nashville, tennessee, all gatherings are capped at 8 people. and so that's where we start talking a little bit about this. you know, this 2020 thanksgiving is going to be unlike anything we have seen before. although i remember it was mother's day, father's day, easter, we wound up doing zoom calls with the kids. nobody -- we only got together one time as a family this year and that was for my daughter's wedding. which had been postponed three times. eventually we had it but there were only 10 people because this is one of those extraordinary circumstances with the coronavirus that you just have to be careful. because you don't know who has it and we don't know exactly how it does transfer from one person to another. ainsley: i know. you all are such a close knit family. steve: it was a killer not being able to invite. you two were going to go. ainsley: brian and i were going to go to florida for the wedding. so many families have lost their

loved ones this year. our hearts and prayers are with your families as many of you will have an empty chair at your table. just god bless your family. god bless america. we are excited this is the week of thanksgiving. it is a time to be grateful for all of our many blessings. and it is smooth sphralg here all the way to christmas. this year is almost over. we will all be ringing in the new year with lots of cheer and a lot of champagne, brian. brian: here's the thing. you have the virus and then you have to find a way to live with it while the vaccine is on its way. the first shot as early as the second week of december. in the same time try not to destroy every small business in the country. is that possible? we are not making people go out to bars can it be an option. we are not making people go out to gyms but screw an option? can you go out to a deli? no. you have politicians who will dividing whose future will be good and whose will be bad. here is the example. in nashville they are basically making it impossible to be profitable, including one of the best bars ever, the honky tonk,

steve smith was just on. said. this. >> there is a lot of people that's not going to be able to survive with restrictions. and it's getting really bad in nashville. it's going to be a lot of people that's suffering with losing jobs and everything else. >> people just getting started been open for a few years. i really feel for them in small, small businesses. this virus didn't start in bars and restaurants. in bars and restaurants got picked on the hardest. it's like they have got to shut down at the 11:00 hour every night. and 11:00 to 3:00 is when we make a lot of our money. most of our money. it's ridiculous. there is no science to this. brian: there isn't. we do know a lot more. even through the science of this. and new york business owners kicked out the health department up in buffalo, new york and los angeles. they protested outside the mayor's house. also in newport beach they protested and had hundreds of people show up at the beach. they know how to do it. it's legitimately outdoors as

well as in different parts of the country. people are standing up saying you can't lock us down again. and these poor business owner fuss take their liquor license, they are done forever. they know how to do it. and now you even have a track record. okay. if business a has gotten a lot of positive tests out of there, the health department has been called already. if that gym is unable to successfully keep a gym open and a lot of positive tests. you will know that but, instead, you are going to shut it down wholesale because you sit up there in your state's capital and decide in the smallest and biggest city in the state in which have you been elected to, they should shut down. and it is just brutal. it's unnecessary. especially because the vaccine is no longer a hope. it's a reality. steve: right. brian: we are weeks away from three straight vaccines in a row. can we have a business to go through. ainsley: at least that gives the small restaurant owners and businesses hope. brian: who spaying the rent? who is paying the rent. ainsley: trust me, if did i not

have a paycheck. my heart goes out to all of those people. i don't know how they put food on the table. steve: this is a very challenging time. keep in mind though we have heard that there would be a second wave and it is speaking right now. we're going back up that mountain. we are going the wrong way. brian: steve, let's look at this. you recall. steve: 1 million new cases in the last two days. brian: it's everywhere. steve: all the kids are coming back from college. what they're trying to do is -- we might not like it. they are trying to say okay, have you got to stop the social mixing and the drinking at night because that seems to be when people are taking down the masks and they are getting infected. brian: really? only after 10:00 at night? steve: well,. brian: brian do you talk to these bar owners? do you talk to them after 10:00 at night? they still have the plexiglass up and still have the same bar. steve: i haven't been to a bar or restaurant for nine months. brian: i have. the effort they put in and investment they have made to social distance these tables and plexiglass and outdoor tents.

you give them a chance to survive and already proven them and cut them off at their knees. ainsley: what is the reason for 10:00? because the alcohol starts to take effect after 10:00? brian: go talk to your politician who is still getting paid. i can't go through the rationalization. i do talk to the bar owners and restaurant owners and they are flabbergasted. steve: i get that and the problem is, and this goes back to the very beginning. they don't want to overwhelm the hospitals. and the numbers are going through the rough with, you know, hospitalizations are going up as well. and so ultimately what we're saying is you just have to be smart. you know, you understand the risks and that's why there are these restrictions and the whole. brian: they don't trust us, because they are making the restrictions, taking personal decisions away. that's what they are saying. they know more which i find unbelievably disrespectful. steve: i think the message i have tried to impart is that it is all about personal responsibility. do things. brian: they are not giving you a decision. they are not letting us make a

decision. steve: well, in some cases they are. and in some cases they are not. brian: in florida they are. and in new york they're not and in california they are not. and people have had it. steve: no doubt about it. ainsley: a lot of people are moving out, brian. steve: they're. all right. meanwhile, let's switch gears and talk politics and the 2020 election, look at there, griff jenkins joins us now from washington. the very latest on the trump campaign and more lawsuits and whatnot. griff: yeah. good morning, steve, ainsley and brian. happy early thanksgiving to you. a lot of developments on the lawsuit from let's jump in starting with pennsylvania. now, over the weekend a judge dismissed the trump campaign's lawsuit seeking to stop certifications. the court was presented with a strained legal argument without merit. it was speculative in accusations but senior legal adviser jenna ellis, who i spoke to over the weekend, says they believe their strongest suit is in pennsylvania. they filed notice they intend to file notice to appeal in the 3rd circuit of appeals asking for expedited hearing on wednesday.

ellis says there were errors with the original suit brought. we will see where that goes. now, if we go out to michigan, remember, i told you guys on friday there was a chance that when the state canvassing board met today to certify the results we could see a challenge? well, that board is made up of two democrats, two republicans and it appears one republican, norman shinkle is expected to vote against certification and he believes he has the legal right to do so but michigan's democrat secretary of state jocelyn benson disagrees. >> i can say this. the law is very clear. the role of the state canvassers under the law is very clear. it's to certify the election. there is no legal authority under state law to do anything other than confirm the election results. griff: meanwhile president trump's legal team led by rudy giuliani putting distance with attorney sidney powell who we just saw at the rnc press conference from thursday. powell has drawn heavy criticism for what she said there. launching unsubstantiated allegations of a global communist conspiracy with origins in venezuela and cuba.

well, the trump campaign statement reads this simply. quote: sidney powell is practicing law on her own. she is not a pen of the trump legal team. also not a lawyer for the president in his personal capacity. powell responded to a request from the cbs saying that she understands the statement and will continue to represent #we the people who voted for president trump. brian, ainsley, steve? ainsley: all right. good deal. thank you so much, griff. when you look at the election data, why did the numbers go up among hispanics for president trump? why did he get more support there than republicans normally do in the past? and this is from joshua -- how do we say this zargosa a democratic data specialist, he lives in arizona. this is what he told politico. most latinos identify first as working class americans and trump spoke to that. hispanic men are very entrepreneurial. their economic language is more aligned with the way that republicans speak. pulling yourselves up from the boot straps.

owning your own business. i think that message really resonated with a lot of american families. i know that my dad put himself through college and his goal was to put all three of us through college and he did that working so many different jobs. my mom worked a full-time job. that's what the message was in my household growing up. and i know a lot of hispanics they are such hard-workers. this is their culture. this is what they were taught growing up, too. you work. you make money. and then, you know, you go to church on sundays. it's that all-american family. and that's why many of them have come to america. that's why so many people have come to america because they love that american dream and capitalism. brian? brian: yup. rachel campos-duffy weighed in. she knows this firsthand. rachel: donald trump gave the g.o.p. an incredible makeover. it used to be the party ever the chamber of commerce, the party of big corporate, big business interest. it is now the party of the american worker. and if you talk to hispanics, people like in my family, they will tell you that they are blue

collar american workers. so, this is a really powerful message and moving forward the republicans would be smart to embrace this makeover. brian: they would. and let's see if they do. because the rio grande valley in texas almost went to the president. he only lost it by 5%. and the rio grand valley went to hillary clinton by 30%. miami-dade, the president made incredible gains there and when you talk about cuba and venezuela and one of the most important things i think if you look at this the president says yeah, i'm going to be tough on the border. i'm not anti-hispanic. no, no. you can't do that they are going to get a mixed message. well, i'm against this reapproachment with cuba. i'm not being pro-hispanic or pro-cuban that's for america. and the same thing for venezuela. in the end the hispanic community appreciate you a a lot of the fox news given by this economical colliculus and the tax reductions that allowed them to use one of their greatest assets. that's the incredible work ethic. he didn't pander. he put his programs in place and

people respond. steve: and you have got to wonder whether republicans going forward will be able to capitalize on his blue collar appeal in the latino community. ainsley: and antisocialism down in florida. steve: i was about to say that one of the things working at the same time as the president was pushing that message was the left's message did not help them. you know, when you are talking about policies that remind a lot of people of the socialist stick country they came came from important for the people in the latino country remember that goya foods thing that happened a while back because the goya president went to an event at the white house at the white house as i had gone to an event at the white house with barack obama, people were turned off by that as well as the whole message of defund the police. when you are a small business owner, regardless of the

demographic, when you pick up the phone and there is trouble, you want the police to be there. and a lot of people were freaked out that maybe that wasn't going to be the case. ainsley: every culture is different. in south carolina the defund police you heard from jim clyburn say that hurt democrats in certain areas but then that might have helped if you live in portland or if you live in a more liberal area just like the hispanic community is different in south florida as it is in texas. because they were -- many of their families were fleeing cuba and socialism and so they came over to south florida and that's why trump did so well down there. brian: i would like to add one thing, the puerto rican community. when the president came out against puerto rico and said the government was corrupted he wasn't coming out the puerto rican people wrong message you can't say that most that relocated here because of the natural disaster yeah we know our government is corrupt. we know it's like spitting into the wind givings taxpayer money to these people. we know it needs to be straightened out. they don't want to be pandered to. they just said the president was calling it as he sees it and it worked. i hope more people are candid

like that. jillian mele has the other news. hey, jillian. jillian: good morning. let's follow the headlines of the story we are following right now. take a look at this, a shooting suspect, you see that, smiling after killing two people at nebraska restaurant. roberta silva jr. surrendered to police after lighting up this utah truck filled with fireworks and opening fire at the sonic drive. in officers found four guns on the scene. is he now facing murder and arson charges. silva had been arrested at the same restaurant just days earlier for using another person's app. to order food. police have not revealed a motive. just in, israeli prime minister ben gentleman minute netanyahu reportedly met saudi arabia's crowned prince in what could be a move to normalize relations. several media reports say netanyahu made the secret trip to the kingdom to meet with the crowned prince and secretary mike pompeo. a spokesman for netanyahu did not confirm the report. president-elect joe biden is expected to announce his first cabinet pick tomorrow.

democratic sources tell fox news tony blinken is biden's pick for secretary of state. blinken served as the deputy secretary of state and deputy national security adviser under the obama administration. two democrat sources also telling fox news linda thomas-greenfield is expected to be tapped for u.n. ambassador and jake sullivan will likely be the pick for national security adviser. and how about this? you can get your beer delivered by reindeer this christmas. breckenridge brewery teamed one a local ranch to deliver keg to five lucky winner winners in co. restaurants in denver and cascade are eligible. owner also be able to pete and feed the reindeer during this one of a kind hollywood embrace that some are calling reinbeer. ainsley: that's cute. i hope kids living at the house -- brian: are drinking beer. ainsley: no, no. if that rolled up in any of our front yards.

steve: come stop at our house. wave. jillian: reindeer for the kids and beer for the parents. brian: do you think it's okay for kids to drink nonalcoholic beer? steve: no. ainsley: no. remember those candy cigarettes when we were growing up. can you believe now if you think about it that they made those? brian: let's practice. ainsley: no. steve: meanwhile nancy pelosi declaring victory in the 2020 elections despite republicans cutting into our house majority. we are going to get reaction from republican darrell issa who is making a return to capitol hill. but, first, hey, there is still time to get your copy of the "happy in a hurry cookbook." it has got about a dozen holiday recipes including the bacon braided turkey breast that i made on the show on saturday. the show off pumpkin pie. order your copy today and get it tomorrow perfect on the person on your list who loves to cook. amazon, target, walmart. number one coo cookbook this we.

in 2018 but he is back. congressman elect darrell issa just won a seat out in california where he joins us from. congressman, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. and this is the first time in my modern recollection that i have seen the speaker of the house claim victory while losing more than half of her majority. steve: yeah. keep in mind, they were predicting a blue wave. and the blue wave didn't happen. it was more of a blue undertow, actually. >> exactly. out here in california surfers would say that the wave ate them they didn't eat the weave. the wave. no question at all there was a sign the trump policies, the policies that people ran on whether they were in red districts or blue districts really had an effect versus aoc and nancy pelosi's policies which quite frankly are out of favor. steve: do you think going forward that is part of the trump legacy? >> oh, absolutely. i have said it before and i will

say it again. trump has changed the republican party to make it much more sensitive to the blue collar working man and woman. he has created an opportunity for us to make real inroads with what used to be considered the union household, because, in fact, the republicans have, in fact, stood with trump to reach out and give the working man the advantage over, if you will, the global corporations. steve: in the house of representatives, where you are heading back to, to be the majority, you need 218 members. the way it looks like right now, the republicans could actually have 212 or 213 by the time it's all done. that's extraordinary. >> it is. and there is still more than 15 districts that president trump won that are occupied by democrats. so there is a lot of room to grow, still. in the next two years between special elections and the

continued diligence of the republican team in the house. my expectation is that we will narrow that gap even more and then in 2022 earn our way back into the majority. steve: right. one of the things we have seen over the last two years, congressman, is the bills that came out of the house were a little more -- were more extreme than things we have seen in the past. and then if they made it to the senate, the senate would try to make them a little more mainstream. going forward, do you think nancy pelosi and the democrats with their slim majority are going to have things that are more moderate, more centrist, or are they going to keep things way to the left? >> well, they have failed to do so at their peril. i have served in both the majority and minority and any time the party of the president or the party of the senate is the other party, you have to do an even better job of making sure something is bipartisan. not just pick up a few of the other party's votes, but

actually create bipartisan legislation. my oversight committee had 36 bills signed by president obama during the time that, in fact, you know, he had to decide. was he going to sign something. he signed it when it was overwhelmingly bipartisan. and that's what the democrats have to learn. they didn't learn it the last two years. the last two years clearly was a lot of partisan bills that were for show. and they went normally nowhere in the senate because they basically passed out of straight party line. steve: right. before you go, this is a holiday week. just curious, you know, coronavirus has changed everything for everybody. how are you going to be celebrating thanksgiving? >> well, that's a good question. well, i'm not going to be in quarantine like my governor who apparently went a little too far. the intention, quite frankly, is i'm going to be in a small family get together of some sort. and recognize that this is about

a time in which we are waiting for those vaccines that are just around the corner. and trying to keep our hospitals from being swamped. steve: right. >> the one thing that i think both sides can agree on about this virus is we don't want to have our healthcare system swamped but at the same time, we have got to continue working and so i think a lot of people are working very hard on monday, tuesday, and wednesday in order to get that thursday off. steve: well put. sir, thank you for getting up so early on this monday morning where it's 4:28 in the morning out in california. thank you. >> my pleasure. steve: you bet. meanwhile, back on this coast, new york governor andrew cuomo will get an emmy today for his daily covid briefing. an emmy. this is despite thousands of seniors in nursing homes dying on his watch. janice dean knows that all too well. she lost both of her in-laws to the virus. janice dean's reaction to the governor's emmy coming up next.

♪ ♪ ainsley: new york's governor andrew cuomo will receive an emmy today for his daily coronavirus briefings despite the thousands of seniors who died from coronavirus in new york nursing homes. our own janice dean lost her in-laws weeks from each other in separate nursing homes. she joins us now. what were your thoughts when you heard he is getting an emmy today. janice: this is a hard interview to do because we are going into thanksgiving. this is the first thanksgiving we will have without his parents going into the holiday season. so to hear the governor going on a sort of another self-congratulatory awards show after his self-congratulatory book tour, to accept an award

for his quote, unquote, leadership where over 34,000 new yorkers died, including my husband's parents, it's just more grief. every time we see this governor celebrating himself on television, it's just a reminder of the people that we lost, partly because of his leadership. ainsley: so, janice, this is a statement from the academy. they said the governor's 101 daily briefings worked so well because he effectively created television shows with characters, plot lines, and stories of success and failure. what's your reaction? janice: i heard that to get an emmy award you have to send videotape of yourself to the board members and so to think that the governor was going through some of his tv appearances talking about deaths in new york and submitting those videos to the emmy folks really makes me physically sick.

he could start his award-winning speech by saying i'm really sorry for your loss, that's something we have never heard from this governor at any of his meetings or his powerpoint presentations. ainsley: janice, tell us about them. we want to remember them and, yes, it is a very tough week for your family and for sean and they raised the man that you fell in love with. tell us more about them. janice: they were married for 59 years. they lived in brooklyn for all of their life. they are new york strong. they are new york tough, what the governor likes to call himself. we had them in elder care facilities because their health was failing them and we were hoping for many more thanksgiving with them. his father was a firefighter for 23 years. he served in the air force. his mom bea was a homemaker and she loved her grand children. she sent cards and presents on every holiday. and we're going to miss them this year. and i want the governor to know that, that when is he accepts his award for leadership skills,

we are going to be mourning them and missing them this thanksgiving season. ainsley: what do you think his plans for the future are? what's his agenda because he wrote a book and now if he did submit a video of himself or get his team to do that, what's his goal? janice: i think he loves to be a celebrity. and if he really wants to be a celebrity then go to hollywood. don't be a governor. have you missed 17 meetings at the white house about covid response. instead you are on a book tour with celebrities for people who have paid for your book. profiting off of. ainsley: sorry to interrupt you. but elaborate on that he was invited to the white house 17 times by the president and he didn't go? >> that is correct. he was invited to the white house or via the zoom meetings to find out about coronavirus response. and the vaccines, the upcoming vaccines and he never attended instead he went on his leadership tour promoting his book. that is profiting off the deaths of our loved ones.

ainsley: do you think that the numbers are accurate? i know they are reporting there were 6876 deaths in nursing homes or long term care facilities. janice: no. and that's one of the reasons why i am still very vocal despite this being very challenging for my family and s. because he refuses to release the exact numbers of coronavirus patients that died in the hospitals like my mother-in-law. some totals say -- some estimates are over double what is being reported. ainsley: your boys are old enough. i'm sure you have had tough conversations. what are you going to do for thanksgiving without them this year? janice: we are going to honor them. we are going to be a family together. we are going to remember them and talk about them. and i just want other families to know that i am speaking on behalf of them. while he accepts his award, many of us just accepted caskets and urns of our loved ones. ainsley: janice, thank you. god bless you. i wish i could give you a hug. i will see you when all of this

is over. janice: i know, love you. ainsley: happy thanksgiving. do you say happy thanksgiving? i'm glad you are honoring them. god bless you all. janice: thank you all. ainsley: you are welcome. micky and dea were married 59 years. madly in love. more "fox & friends" moments away. ♪ ♪ you can count on me ♪ i'll be home for christmas ♪ if only in my dreams ♪

brian: let's bring in rob smith to talk a little bit about this but about everything else going on right now. host of rob smith problematic podcast. we are starting to get a sense of what joe biden is going to be like in terms of his foreign policy in his cabinet. he says he wants his cabinet to look like america. you know about the press conferences coming from aoc and the squad and other members and the begging by bernie sanders. what do you think this means? >> well, first of all, you know, there is nothing inherently wrong with wanting to have a cabinet that, quote, unquote looks like america. there is no problem with that the problem is when you bring these people quote unquote that look like america bring policies that hurt particularly black americans. a lot of the swamp that had been floating around d.c. for the past 47 years is going to come back into a quote, unquote biden administration. and push the same policies that are going to hurt black americans outside of that as far as the progressive left and all that stuff. we need to start asking tough

questions about what the progressive left has actually accomplished other than getting aoc the cover of vanity fair getting a lot of re-tweets and making a lot of them progressive stars. they haven't really done much. they have lost a lot of seats for democrats. they have lost their majority. as a matter of fact, they have given them a slogan "defund the police" that helps republicans running down ballot because it is so insane that everybody runs away from it and it's something that is very good for republicans to run on. i do think that these progressives are going to have a lot of influence in a quote, unquote, a biden administration? no. ainsley: rob, does this mean if they will make the cabinet look like america will 50% be republican? >> yeah, right. oh, god, you have got jokes this morning. no. that is not going to happen. i think that when they say look like america they are talking purely based on race and ethnicity and, look, we saw this during the obama administration years. we saw a lot of african-american cabinet members. a lot of african-american leaders pushing policies that

hurt black americans very, very badly during the obama years. and, unfortunately, i think that we will see stuff like that again during a potential biden administration. if people are very tough on exactly what kind of plans these people are trying to push out. steve: that's right. rob, it was a couple months ago, back in june i remember you were on the ground in minneapolis after the death of george floyd. and you helped raise something like 130, 40, $50,000 for the communities that were impacted. >> yes. steve: we have been talking to flora wester brooks whose salon was looted and burned. she hasn't gotten any help at all. the problem with minneapolis right now though is the fact that so many officers have taken leave for a variety of reasons, including ptsd, that they are having essentially hire outside cops to help them with what's going on. right now homicides are up 82%, violent crime up 22% as you can

see the larger number at the bottom. what's going on in minneapolis? >> yeah, well, first of all, you know, brian, we raised about $130,000 thanks to a lot of people across the country and the amazing viewers of this program. we jumped up very high after you guys did a story. so thank you on that. look, what we are seeing in minneapolis is probably the first test case in america for what actually happens when you do defund the police. now, remember, that they have cut police budgets. they have cut, i think, a couple of classes of police academy cadet members. and so they're not only having a hard time putting cops on the ground, they are having a hard time retaining the police officers that they have. and what happens when you have progressive slogans like defund the police, they actually end up hurting the communities in which these people claim that they are supposed to help. now, we talked a lot about the squad and a lot about the progressive left. these people are saying things like defund the police when they have, you know, guarded security and they live in gaite gated co.

when you say things like this these hurt the people that actually live on the street. what i heard on the streets were when you get outside of the activist and see real working class people trying to go about their lives and trying to rebuild that i think that a criminal element sees an opportunity when you have these far left activists pushing for defund the police and when you have weak leadership like the city council leadership in minneapolis and like some of the weak leaders in cities like this that roll over for the progressive left. so, it is unfortunate that we are seeing this rise in crime and this rise in violence that is directly tied to the defense the police rhetoric. but, until there are leaders that are stand up against this stuff, and triad vo indicate for policies that are right for their citizens, we're going to see more of this. brian: gotcha. i hear you, rob. the communities that need it most are going to be the ones that feel it the most. and that is when you defund the police because the upper class will find a way to get security.

meanwhile, janice dean. rob smith, appreciate it. ainsley: thank you for raising all that money, too. brian: janice dean, you have got the weather. janice: absolutely. and, of course, it's a busy week. some people are going to be traveling so they want to know where the spots are going to be. where you could avoid possible showers, thunderstorms, even snow in the forecast. here are the current temperatures. not too bad actually in terms of temperatures this week. milder than average. so no places that are going to be really subzero. but looking at the forecast today, certainly the northeast are going to get heavy rain and the potential for thunderstorms up towards new england, some snow showers for the great lakes as well. there are your travel delays for tuesday for the northwest we have an active pattern there and then the central u.s. that's where we are going to see mainly rain. we are not talking about a big storm system here but nuisance rain showers and that's going to move across the mississippi valley. the ohio tennessee valley in towards wednesday and in to thursday. now, that thanksgiving day, a quieter forecast for many, so we

are enjoying mild temperatures for much of the country. look at that 58 in new york. there is our little turkey celebrating here. very warm across the south as well and some unsettled weather across the northwest. but, otherwise, once we get through tuesday and wednesday, much calmer weather for those who are traveling. we will keep you up to date. steve, ainsley, brian, back to you. steve: thank you very much, j.d. all right. major cities forced to grapple with the rise in violence and ongoing lock downs. stuart varney is going to warn that this will lead to a mass exodus of business. where? hear from stuart next. ♪ no more, no more, no more ♪ hit the road, jack ♪ and don't you come back no more ♪ what's you say ♪ hit the road, jack ♪ don't you come back no more, no more no more, no more ♪ hit the road, jack. powerful relief so you can restore and recover.

ainsley: gun owners could face a hefty tax on guns they already own. hillary vaughn joins us live with the options the president-elect is giving gun owners. >> reporter: for gun owners that own semiautomatic rifles, they really only have two options under a biden administration.

the two options are, quote, sell the weapons to the government or register them under the national firearms act. so gun owners who don't want to ditch their firearms have to full out a 13-page application form, submit fingerprints, a photo of themselves and pay $200. the rule covers ar-15s, and the americans for tax reform are calling this a tax on gun owners saying it violates biden's pledge to not raise any taxes on anyone making under $400,000 a year. this policy will impact millions of gun own e orers, 20 million rifles in the u.s. would fall if under this new rule and could cost up to $34 billion overall for gun own ors in this country. biden's policy also applies to high capacity magazines too, and biden's plan defines a high capacity magazine as any magazine with over ten rounds. here's the kick, ainsley. for a gun owner that has an

ar-15 and four high capacity magazines, they would owe the federal government $1,000. ainsley: ooh, that's going to make gun owners mad. thanks so much, hillary. brian, over to you. brian: new york city seeing a surge in crime like this man with a flame thrower on top of a city bus. it's real x. a rash of terrifying subway attacks like this woman pushed onto the tracks in front of an oncoming train. and it's not an isolated incident. our next guest warns of the fallout this spate of big city violence has on local economies. stuart varney, host of "varney & company" on fox business. stuart, it's the wild wes, and there are so many mentally ill and homeless out on the streets, this city is in a place i've never seen it before, have you? >> no, nothing like this ever, and i've lived in america for 45 years. new york city is in the eye of a perfect storm. there are no tourists.

the cultural institutions like theater, music, clubs all shut down. brian: til june at least. >> that's next summer, for heaven sake. the office buildings are largely empty. employers do not have liability insurance. in other words, you go back to work in one of these offices, you contract the virus, you can sue your employer so your employer doesn't bring you back to work, that's what's happening here. and it's a climate of fear, as you just pointed out, brian. the bottom line is the exodus from from new york has already started, and i think it's going to gain momentum. people are leaving this city in droves, and the same thing are true of chicago, illinois and los angeles, california. they're the major cities of the united states facing all of these problems simultaneously as people are leaving. now, whether they come back or not, that's another story. because if they do come back, they're going to be met with higher taxes, that's already in

the cards -- brian: right. >> and met with even more fear because the police do not have a handle on the crime waves here. brian: stuart, it's a bad situation. joe biden, these democratic mayors and governors believe they're going to write a big check to make up -- on money we don't have -- to take up for that lack of revenue that they didn't want to pass. they said you don't like workers, so i think made that stop. these mayors and governors killed the patient and and are getting 'em hu awards for doing it -- emmy awards for doing it. >> it is a self-inflicted wound in many way cases, and i don't think that government help, handing out a lot of government money, is the long-term solution to this problem. we've got to open up, get real. that's what's going to have to happen, and i don't see any sign in the immediate future. brian: a lot of these people still get paid anyway, they get

their free housing, their free paycheck while they go find a gym to work out in secretly behind closed doors. there is some good news, dividends are starting to show a sign of hope. companies predicting the worst of the pandemic economic impact is over and this vaccine is the reason. are you getting that? >> i'm seeing exactly the same thing. whether i'm onboard with that is another story. investors seem to be able to look to the other side of the pandemic. given help from the vaccine, which should be arriving in december, given help from that, maybe we can create a situation where we go back to work next year, and we don't sink into a recession. it's a long shot, but investors believe it because the dow is going to be up another 200 points this morning, carrying us pretty close to all-time highs for stock prices. and investors seem to believe that the vaccine is the key to opening up next year. brian: i understand, we only

have 45 seconds here, stuart, but this new vaccine, the reason why astrazeneca and ox ford, this new advantage siege didn't have a new hut up, it's only between 75-80% effective, and they didn't a profit into it -- build a profit into it? >> look, it depends upon the dosage, the effectiveness rate of this thing. one good thing is that it can be distributed at refrigerator temperatures. brian: yep. >> not like the pfizer vaccine which has to be super kohl. so that's one thing in its favor. brian: i cannot wait to roll up, expose my deltoid, get the cotton ball ready, shoot it right in -- >> that's a vivid description there, brian. i'm eating breakfast. brian: i thought it would be a positive. >> you're killing us. [laughter] brian: stuart varney, between 9-noon, we're going to watch you on fbn, okay? >> thank you.

[laughter] turning to the 2020 election, griff jenkins has been is summoned to action in washington with the latest on the trump campaign's legal challenges. >> reporter: hey, good morning to you. a lot of developments this monday morning. let's start in pennsylvania. a federal judge dismissed the president's lawsuit saying it lacked merit, it made speculative accusations. but senior legal adviser jenna ellis tells fox news they intend to appeal. now, let's go to michigan. the state canvassing board meets today to certify the results. it's made up of two democrats and two republicans, and it

appears one member is expected to vote against certification, and he believes he has the legal right to do so. but michigan's secretary of state, a democrat, jocelyn benson, disagrees. watch. >> i can say this, the law is very clear, and the role of the astronaut canvassers under -- state canvassers is to certify the election. there's no legal authority under state law to do anything other than con firm the election results. >> reporter: we'll see, stay tuned. meanwhile, down south in georgia the trump campaign fueling for a petition for another recount. this one would be done by machine scanners. this as president trump's legal team led by rudy e julian is putting distance with attorney sidney powell who was part of the rnc press conference, drawing heavy create such for launching unsubstantiated allegations of a global conspiracy with ties to venezuela and cuba. now, the campaign's statement says sidney powell is practicing

law on her own. she is not a member of the trump legal team. she is also not a lawyer for the president in his personal capacity. now powell responded to cbs saying she understands the statement but will continue to represent hashtag we the people and those who voted for president trump. brian, ainsley, steve? steve: all right, thank you very much. let's bring in ben domenech, publisher of "the federalist." there he is right there. good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: we're looking ahead to tomorrow. it sounds like some of the first pucks for the biden cabinet -- picks for the biden cabinet will be announced. and what we believe to be the case, anthony blinken is going to probably be the secretary of state, one-time adviser to president-elect biden. jake sullivan, nsa, worked for hillary clinton at the state department. linda thomas-greenfield, 35-year vet in foreign services, she will be u.n. ambassador. what do you make of what, you

know, if that, if those are the first three names in the incoming administration, what do you make of who joe biden is stacking his cabinet with? >> well, i think, you know, we've talked before about this whole con isn't that joe biden -- concept that joe biden represented a return to normalcy on the part of a candidate from the democratic party who would basically reset the clock to where it was before donald trump came along. and i think that's what these picks are trying to indicate, that he wants to go back to the way that we used to do foreign policy under the obama/biden administrations. the problem is that i think a lot of people soured on the wayed that obama/biden administration did foreign policy, particularly when it came to their treatment of iran, china, and i think that's going to continue to be an issue that dogs this new administration as he stacks it full of a lot of people who have a long record of basically, you know, misrepresenting, i think, and doing a poor job of representing american interests overseas,

being a little butt more globally-minded as opposed to mindful of america's interest when it comes to e all of these issues. ainsley: so, ben, george stephanopoulos interviewed ron klain, the incoming chief of staff for joe biden, and he really pressed him on working with republicans, how are you going to unify. >> there's going to be some tension between getting unity, getting things done with the republicans and investigating any wrongdoing that occurred during the trump administration. the vice president has said he doesn't want to be consumed by trumped investigations. how to do you balance moving forward with getting accountability? >> well, let's be father, george. the president-elect spoke about this many times during the campaign. what he made clear is that joe biden is not going to tell the justice department who to investigate or who not to investigation. ainsley: what do you expect? you heard about investigating president trump and any

wrongdoing. are we going to go through all that? >> one of the big things i think is going to happen is investigations are going to be used to satisfy joe biden's hard-left progressive base. basically, because he's not going to be able to deliver on the kind of policy preferences that they would like to see advanced through a republican congress, in all likelihood that means instead of doing the green new deal, instead of doing court packing and the like, i think he's going to try to keep them satisfied by maybe having some of these move forward for the president. at the same time, i don't think that's necessarily biden's personal inclination. it's going to be more the inclination of the people who he aappoints. i fully expect there's going to be investigations in multiple ways that look into the president's behavior, the president's taxes, the president's -- all sorts of different things. why would we expect democrats to stop doing what they've been doing for the past four years? brian: yeah. is there a bigger waste of time? there possibly could not be.

let's investigate president trump. the other thing to keep in mind too with joe biden, we never got him to explain his foreign policy. we never had a debate on foreign policy. we couldn't debate the years of his foreign policy, his 47 years of his beliefs. and now we have china who's basically telling us what we should do now, says we've got to restore multilateralism, cooperation with the whole world, particularly stopping the reckless and brutal iewd logical economic fight between the u.s. and china and stop with the america first doctrine. so china's telling us how to approach our foreign policy. i wonder if joe biden's going to embrace e that idea. >> you know, brian, i just think this is a situation where, unfortunately, we didn't get the kind of vetsing that we need to have of our presidential candidates. the media treated biden with kid gloves nor almost a year -- for almost a year, now he's the president-elect, effectively, and we don't know the answers to

really basic things about the approach he's going to have in office. you saw the exchange that happened with the cbs news reporter just recently where, you know, biden was clearly irritated at him. shouting at a very logical question about school reopenings given what we've learned about the way that those things can happen. i just think this is a situation where we have a new administration coming in that's going to wind back the clock on a lot of things, and we should have had this kind of debate play out in front of the american people in ways they could see what they were going to get with a potential biden administration and, unfortunately, we didn't. brian: ben, just to further that, he was asking a question, and they just ushered him out of the room. all the doctors now suddenly agree with president trump that the best place for kids to be school. it's amazing. >> as soon as the election was over. brian: yeah. that's right. steve: because, ben, let's face it, the coronavirus has changed everything. there's a reason you are doing this report from your living room.

there's a reason ainsley, bruin and i are -- >> my dining room, thank you. steve: it's a lovely dining room, just saying. [laughter] it's changed everything. you know, we had one million new cases of coronavirus in the last the ten days and, unfortunately, people are kept home from school and things like that, and their trying -- they're trying to have all sorts of guidelines and restrictions. want to talk about what kate brown is doing in the state of oregon. she's imposed a two week freeze on indoor and outdoor things. you can't have more than 6 people gather in any one place from more than two households. also, if you see anybody breaking a coronavirus guideline, call the cops. which brings up the question, at what point do you call the police? i mean, if you see 7 people in a group, are you going to call the police? or if you see your neighbors got 150 kids in the backyard with a keg and no mask, that's probably

a no-brainer. >> first off, obviously, gavin newsom shouldn't be visiting there anytime soon buzz he break -- because he breaks all of those rules. it seems to me you have major leaders who think they can make these type of pronouncements, and it'll change human behavior as opposed to just creating reis sentiment not just among citizens, but also among the law enforcement officers who have much more important thing to be doing. i actually put out a request about a week ago asking for law enforcement officers to contact me about this, and id had a flood of e-mails from cops across the country saying this is ridiculous, you know? we have so many other things to take care of in a normal day, we can't be going around counting the number of people in a household. it's absolutely absurd. and i think that it's absurd on the part of these governors to assert these types of things and think they're really going to happen. it's one thing to recommend to people, hey, it would be better to have a smaller thanksgiving, you know, keep it close to the

chest, keep your household, you know, intact. that's something that you can obviously recommend. but the idea that you're going to enforce it with the force of law, that you're going to haul people into court or fine them over this type of thing, it's absurd. and we shouldn't have this kind of relationship with our politicians. we should see them as they are, which is public servants. ainsley: i know y'all had a baby. i don't know how you're up so early because you're probably not getting any sleep. jillian's decorated her entire apartment for christmas, are you doing the tree early? do you hate that, or can you make an exception for those ready to put up decorations and move on with 2020? >> ainsley, i normally absolutely hate that, i hate decorating ahead of thanksgiving. i will say though that this year of all years i might be willing to grant an indulgence for people who just need to have some joy in their lives. and i will say that i'm already

sitting up, i'm already planning for all the different things we have to order immediately after thanksgiving. so we'll be right there with you. ainsley: you're going to love it this year. your first year as a daddy, it's so fun. you have a lot to be thankful for this year. >> absolutely. thank you. brian: take out your zoom list and have a rotation. [laughter] steve: so, ben, how are you going to be celebrating thanksgiving there in your dining room? >> well, i'm the which have in the family, so i'll be cooking, i'll be making -- i've already gotten the you are key ready to to go and doing all the prep and everything like that. we'll be celebrating as a small group. thankfully, my family's very local, and so i we don't have to have the kind of travel restrictions. brian: ben, cops are watching, okay?

been taking personal responsibility following cdc guidelines, socially distancing themselves, wearing masks whenever they go out to protect themselves and those around them. and so they've been doing that. so governor newsom recently targeted certain businesses, reinstructing religious gathering -- restricting religious gathering, unilaterally instituting statewide curfew, even telling californians not to have thanksgiving dinner especially when somebody like me have so much to be thankful for. so i think they're expressing their frustration. i do understand that government's heavy hand is not the right approach to dealing with the pandemic. as we take steps to address our public health concerns, we should take into account -- or, i should say, the governor should take into account that people's livelihoods and liberties are at stake as well. brian: right. what about the business owners? i mean, if you ever want to get your economy back in line are with taxes through the roof and

people running from your state for a better life, how are you going to do that if you destroy every small business and board up the ones that aren't? >> exactly. that's why people are frustrated. instead of helping businesses to be creative and innovative and to stay afloat and keep their businesses open, governor is doing -- i mean, he's basically doing himself, going to a restaurant and telling everybody else not to do it. i understand their frustration, and i don't blaum them. blame them. brian: and, by the way, this blue ribbon panel, tom steyer, the billionaire, led it. business professionals like tim cook, arnold schwarzenegger, they came up with nothing, so he disbanded them. they have no political power either. now, for you, you're going to be part of this republican wave that almost took the house to the chagrin of the cook report and every other, and every other

trust to keep their promises. and that's ooh exactly what i'm going to bring to washington. brian: what's it going to take to get the republican party to have a real presence. in your state in. >> well, we're going to have to continue to get the message that the party, republican party is not the grand old party, but the grand opportunity party that chose somebody like me that can win and represent them in washington, d.c. in the house of representatives. my election shows that in america anything is possible. brian: right. >> you know? so i'm very excited. the republican party will be very progressive, you know, like embrace somebody like me, an immigrant, minority woman can run, conservative republican, and i'm very proud of the fact that i shattered the glass ceiling and proved that the promise of america alive and well. the republican party, the leadership in this election has been very supportive of minority

[laughter] proven brian looking forrd to the shot, was my point.

>> shot. and, listen, the shot coming. steve, going back to your comment and what we began doing last week was we began the delivery of these antibody therapeutics, the first one delivered last week is the one by eli lilly. over the weekend the regeneron antibody therapy, the same one that president trump took, has now been authorized for emergency use. we will soon be delivering that. however, going back to the e i lie lily one, going to all of these hot spots that we're seeing this texas whether it be el paso, lubbock and so many other places, this therapy is going to be able -- not going to be, is already available. we get weekly allotments where we are increasing the amount of this aunt body therapy. and what this does, it allows people to recover as quickly as what you saw the president recover. and it keep people out of hospitals so we will begin to see hospitalizations decline.

ainsley: someone asked me recently said say they have the antibodies and do i still have to follow the restrictions since i've had it, recovered and had the antibodies, and i said, good question. can you answer that for us? >> so when it comes to both the antibodies as well as the oncoming vaccines that, as you saw announced will soon be delivered maybe as soon as three weeks from now, it will allow people to be able to travel or interact or do common day activities without the same concern of getting covid as would have existed before these medicines became available. brian: yeah. i got a text message the other day from the blood bank saying if you know anybody that has the antibodies, they need 'em for treatment. i haven't heard this in a while. meanwhile, here are your current restrictions in texas, gatherings of more than 10 people prohibited in most circumstances, statewide mask order instituted with some exception, bars and restaurants

these private gatherings. so lockdowns are overvalued. steve: governor, the governor of oregon, a woman by the name of kate brown, says, hey, if you see anybody breaking any of our state's suggestions and guidelines, call the cops. is that the way they should handle that, call the cops if you see somebody walking around with no mask? >> i gotta until you, i think they may have some fourth amendment challenges there. but also i have to point out the irony. if i understand correctly, oregon just legalized heroin and maybe cocaine. so it's okay to have heroin and cocaine but not turkey for thanksgiving. that is un-american, it just does not make sense. ainsley: good point. all right. thank you so much, governor. happy thanksgiving. >> y'all too. have a very happy thanksgiving. brian: thank you, sir. sorry ab the deltoid. ainsley: still ahead, a group of police officers stepping up to deliver thanksgiving meals to nearly 30 families, and it it ae
