4:00 pm
11:00 a.m. eastern. that will do it for us and thanks for inviting us into thir home tonight. that doesn't for this "special report." knight number two, is this feeling like a regular thing? >> you are surprised i lasted. you sounded like the news person who said it's probably going to be one and done. it's fun, i am allowed to stay at this late normally but not allowed to dress this nice. i have cable in my office now. tonight, a tale of two american vets on red state businesses is thriving despite covid-19 restrictions. any and blue states are being crushed by the government, and they want to keep us safe. the barstools dave portnoy took it upon himself to save them. >> when you see the reaction of these business owners and you see the stress wash away and they break down, you can't ignore that. it doesn't matter who you are, you are saying what they are
4:01 pm
going through, the struggle and everything on the other side of the pandemic. >> even he gets emotional, tough guy like him. my full interview coming up part one, part two will be tomorrow. joe biden is set to take over the white house tomorrow and it's historic. at a time when americans could not be more divided, his first priority and biggest challenge is turning down the temperature and restoring my soul. my soul as well which to be honest, didn't realize it is missing. the first time encouraged by comments like these. >> i pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify. who doesn't see red states or blue states, only sees the united states. it's time to put away the harsh rhetoric and lower the temperature. see each other again, listen to each other again and to make progress and stop being treated
4:02 pm
as products of our enemies. >> brian: i love it. they are taking his calls for unity to heart. >> most of the members of the house republican conference three main parts of team tradition. >> how are we going to deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of trump. >> they were deceptively recruited by an authoritarian political cults. all of america needs deprogramming because we have all been negatively influenced by donald trump. >> brian: are they really railing around that knock your stomach inaugural message? so who are we to believe. the democratic party is bent on punishing conservatives or anybody with a r next name. the party is prepared to steamroll joe but don't worry america, the party can only do so much through executive orders. they still need ten votes in the senate to get anything big down because senator joe manchin has assured us that the filibuster
4:03 pm
is not going away. we are all going to be okay, right joe? >> my job right now being a position that i am, doing everything in my power to bring this country together to heal the country and to work in a bipartisan fashion which is the reason we have the senate. that's a job i've always done, and we need to bring this country together. >> i've always liked joe manchin, when he was governor, he was great. but i become pretty cynical. joe manchin announces uncooperative republicans have forced him to vote for the illumination of the filibuster and nail a simple majority will pass everything joe biden wants because from what we'd seen the left side is interested in compromise, they have a different c word in mind. it's called canceling. especially if you fought with or for donald trump. now that was a focal point of
4:04 pm
the presidents national dress. >> president trump: the key lies in sustaining and instilling our shared national identity. only if we forgot who we are and how we got here could we ever allow political censorship and blacklisting to take place in america. it's not even thinkable. shutting down free and open debate violates our core values and most enduring traditions. that is not who we are and it will never be who we are. >> brian: but yes, it's where we are. great speech. it's not just politicians taking aim at fellow congressmen and senators, it's a private sector and higher education, case in point my next guest of a rising republican star by all accounts who worked her way into harvard. now harvard is walking away from her. joining me now is elise stefanik of new york. her story is phenomenal, i read all of bill mcgurn's column today in "the wall street journal" and he went to bat for you because he has seen you in action.
4:05 pm
they sell plywood in upstate new york and you would excel to the point where you get into harvard. the bush administration draft to you, and they come back a 30-year congresswoman. why is harvard taking your degree? >> this is cancel culture that you are seeing. that's what you are hearing with democrats and from the left. if they want anyone from the conservative movement or anyone that supported president trump, arvid asked me to resign twice from the senior advisory committee on the institute of politics. i refused to resign because i will not be canceled just because of political correctness. i've been involved with the bipartisan politics since i was a freshman at harvard and again, i'm a first-generation college graduate in my family. i'm very proud of my values and
4:06 pm
how i was raised but this is an example of the american dream and what is so disappointing is now the entire board of the institute of politics is made up of 100% joe biden voters. that was not reflective of america and we are seeing more and more of this cancel culture from corporation and communities in higher education. it's not reflective of reality and not of americans. >> brian: here's what arvid said in a letter to you. alisa made assertions about voter fraud that have no basis in evidence that she's made public statements about court actions related to the election that are incorrect. moreover there are assertions and statements do not reflect policy disagreements but they are on the foundation of electoral process through which this country's leaders are chosen. that's why they want your degree back. your response? >> my response is the reason why they voted me into the board of politics is because what was
4:07 pm
covered in "the wall street journal" today by bill mcgurn was when i was a student one of the board members was jesse jackson jr. who objected twice in 2001 and 2005 to the electors of florida in the case of a one and ohio in the case of 2005. he didn't kicked get kicked off the board so now they are taking it a step forward and wanting to revoke degrees, degrees that have been earned in four years of studying hard and passing my classes, writing a thesis and doing well and excelling, they cannot take that away, they will face legal action. and they are trying to do it to any republican, even dan crenshaw who voted differently than i did that when it came to the electoral college. this is shameful and the people it hurts the most are the students. we want to make sure that students are exposed to a diversity of opinions and perspective and not just a one-sided view because it's not reflective of reality when they graduate. >> brian: the student's
4:08 pm
petition because i didn't like your approach. dan crenshaw and kayleigh mcenany under the same kind of fire. so you are not going to take it back, i know alan dershowitz that he will represent you for free so we will see where that goes. people are looking at you as a leader even though you are in your 30s and got there in 2014. some are worried about the republican party despite how will he did outside of the presidency in this last election. are you? >> i'm not worried about the future of the republican party because i see it at a local level. the republicans are energized and very excited about the outcome in the house and a historic number of republican women who we elected. we have a very diverse class and our message of standing up for the working people in this country for economic opportunity against big government that we see in the state of new york with the shutdowns on the struggles for small businesses, i also think that while president-elect to get bite and is talking about unifying has
4:09 pm
policy proposals are far left policy proposals and we are seeing that in his first covid relief pin where he didn't even reach out to republicans. >> you can actually have your voice heard with such a slight minority status, about ten seats, depending on how once he goes, either way. is there any sector on the democratic party that you feel you could work with? >> of course. i work with democrats on the issues all the time and where we can find common ground. i'm combating the opioid epidemic and human trafficking, getting covid relief and vaccines to the states that need it. so of course we will look for common ground but we need to see that from the biden administration, more than just rhetoric and in the house and democratic senate. >> brian: a little bit of hope because moderates were pressuring nancy pelosi over the summer. she didn't listen and that's what caused the deficit in the house. continue the fight, thanks so much. i'm so glad i wasn't close to having the grapes to get into harvard because i'm embarrassed by the way they are acting now. thank you congresswoman.
4:10 pm
here now, fox news senior analyst brit hume. the cancel culture. i know it's not new but have you ever seen it like this? seven companies walking away from donald trump, and all those other social media outlets saying go somewhere else? >> never. the country is as divided as i've ever seen it, more divided than i've ever seen it in my lifetime and more divided than it was in vietnam in the late 60s when things were pretty intense. this is deeper and more bitter, this is worse. >> brian: at you like engaging on twitter, and i think you are as aggressive and lucid as anyone on twitter. max boot was a military expert who used to be republican and now is anti-trump full time, i don't know how that pay is. he tweeted, biden needs to reinvigorate the sec to slow the right wing vision from fox end of right-wing broadcasters, or the terrorism we saw on jeannie rhee six will only be
4:11 pm
the beginning rather than the end against the plot against america. your answer to max online and on television? >> i just pointed out to the sec, that does not regulate or have any regulatory authority over cable news. i was a little surprised he didn't seem to know that. >> brian: in the big picture the message is clear. what it surprise you on all of the anger after social media platforms will be at fox soon? >> people have been angry at us forever. we had a choice when we started back in the day, you were there and i was there and that was a week we were liked by people or we could be first. we chose the latter. it was the right call and over time, there are ways to suppress these voices like ours. the people who complain about us
4:12 pm
clearly never watch us and they make all kinds of claims about what we say and don't say. it's a big place, fox news channel. lots of different voices. you can find quotes from our channel saying just about anything, we are pretty wide open here. >> brian: you very true and you were there from day one. from that you are a founding father. let's talk about somebody who never stops, and hillary clinton. she never accepted the result of the 2016 election, never stop complaining and never stopped blaming comic blaming the russians. listen to this when it came to the riots? >> historically we will find out who he is beholden to, who pulls his strings. i would love to see his phone records to see whether he was talking to putin the day that the insurgents invaded our capital. >> brian: so the proud boys -- visit the proud boys or putin? i'm confused. is that this information? >> it's wild speculation for which he has no evidentiary basis and it's a little
4:13 pm
striking, this is stuff she's just saying at this late stage of the game and he did the unthinkable and her eyes. he beat her. when nobody thought he could. and in that sense i think she felt utterly humiliated. he got the office she thought she was destined to hold and she remains on the sidelines of public life i think angry and frustrated and bitter. >> brian: you can either get a podcast or a therapist but i prefers to get a therapist that would be better for america. it seems she shows a podcast. may i just add she was talking to the speaker of the house. thank you so much, always great to see you. >> you will, to, brian. >> brian: team biden's pleas to stay back and now they use those words against him, getting closer by the day.

the prompter. ♪ ♪
4:15 pm
4:16 pm
4:17 pm
4:18 pm
♪ ♪ >> in the first 100 days of my administration, no one, no one will be deported at all. from that point on the only deportations that will take place are commissions of felonies in the united states of america. >> brian: not only did we hear that but guess who else heard it? these lovely people from honduras, guatemala and el salvador. joe biden won the election, it's official, i don't know if you hurry to come and know they are based, guided toward the border based on joe biden's to be promise. listen to this. >> what i want for my people, i just want all the rest, he's given us a hundred days to get
4:19 pm
to the u.s. and give us legal aid to pay for so we can get a better life for our family. >> brian: there's just a way to get there. and he knows that the former vice president knows what his words would do especially if he won. so tom, he is not surprised. >> no he's not. i wrote an op-ed in july of last year's saying if he became president we lose the border. that's why and 14-15 we had a border search. i went to the white house numerous times to brief on what was causing the surgeon how we stopped at. what was deterrence and consequence. they gave us many more detention beds and we detained them but he gives all these getaways and these enticements of no
4:20 pm
deportations, i want to stop ice from detaining people are doing on enforcement operations at wo. when you get those types of promises, they are going to come. and he knows that because we've been down this road before. instead of responding with consequences in deterrence, he gets rid of the detention. he knows that 89% of them, that's based on immigration court stats. so i strongly believe and i'm insulted that he sold out to the left and he is more concerned about winning the election then securing our country. he put himself first and i found that just disgusting. >> brian: 78% of the american people and asked in the middle of the pandemic about our border were for supporting the closing of the border. kids can't go to school, we can't go to restaurants, we can't eat indoors if we can go to restaurants but this is supposed to be considered a safe thing with the america's best
4:21 pm
interest in mind? nothing of against south americans at all but this is what joe biden put pen to paper and announced tomorrow in hopes to pass. eight years pass to citizenship with people living here illegally, that's to the tune of 30 million. dreamers and essential workers have a shorter past eligibility and restore daca for kids who came there through no fault of their own, by their parents. >> what i have a problem with is we are in the middle of the pandemic and what joe biden has said and promises is to call for a surge we've never seen before. what do we do when people come across the border and have coded? more people have the capability of fast tests, so what do you do if a group of 150 families and five have covid-19? do you take them to the border patrol station and affect everybody else? do you take them to the i.c.e. beds? we don't have those. do you really sum to the
4:22 pm
american public? that's a scary thing. he said the worst thing at the west time, this is a perfect storm coming and again american people hold him accountable. we need to demand that they secure the border. we need congress to fix the loopholes that are causing the stuff to begin with. before they change any amnesty or immigration reform, secure the border. close the loopholes. president trump has done a great job of that and the lowest level it's been in decades. let's build upon the success and have the first secured a border in our lifetime. is he going to tear down of spite? even though he voted for the walls in 2006 along with hillary clinton, barack obama and chuck schumer? why does the what works? every place they've built a wall has rick resulted in decreased -- so what's the downside on a secure border? what's the downside against
4:23 pm
illegal drugs, saving lives, cartels not making millions of dollars a day. the same cartels that have killed our agents. there is no sense to his plan on the border. >> brian: i understand the way this contract was signed there's money therefore many more miles and if you break the contract we have to pay almost the same amount anyway because of the way the thing was written up. joe biden can say, sorry, this is the deal i was given. still keep his left placated and build that wall which he knows on every level will be effective, not the cure all but be effective and then start to put pressure on republicans to come aboard on this compromise. what is wrong with the scenario i painted? >> he needs to look at the data. before he makes the decision to stop making the wall or take away the money from the wall, his dog is clear. his job is to protect america, protect our sovereignty and save lives. border patrol saves lives. border patrol agents have been
4:24 pm
begging this for decades and this is the border patrol agents while in america as well. joe biden needs to do the right thing for his citizens and needs to do the right thing for his country and secure that border. a simple look at the data rarely shows that. >> brian: we could do a whole segment, a whole hour on things that both sides agree on, on the need for a ride workers to allow the students to stay in silicon valley in certain situations. there are lots of things that both sides agree on if we can get over the first initial hurdle. i was just hoping at the age of 78 with everything he's been through that he was willing to come to the table with a deal that maybe mitch mcconnell couldn't refuse. tom, thanks for your work and we appreciate your insight. >> thanks for having me, brian. up next, biden's pick for secretary of education sparking controversy over what some would consider radical views when it comes to race. in my exclusive issue with our school's boyd's founder and president dave portnoy has taken

>> brian: tonight and controversy surrounding president biden's pick for secretary of education cindy martin as news reports tonight she might have some pretty radical views on race. chris, what did you find about our background in san diego? >> cindy martin is one of the most radical superintendents in the country and she recently pushed policies of abolishing the requirement to turn in
4:30 pm
homework on time as part of your grades, abolishing based on the tendency you can skip class and not turn in your homework on time. those things are kind of racist constructs that needed to be destroyed, but most concerning, the story that i broke in the school district has no concern that mike confirmed is ms. martin hired a speaker and push the speaker who is saying that white teachers are guilty of spirit murdering black students and that the district should undergo teachers to undergo antiracist therapy. it's extreme, the school district tried to hide it and now it's out in the open. >> brian: so she hired a teacher but she didn't actually -- hired the speaker but didn't actually say it? >> she hired the speaker and then hired the speaker again to go back and train all the staff at the unified school district and the lavished praise on the speaker who was talking about the abolition of racist education and punishing teachers based on their race. >> brian: this is very similar
4:31 pm
to white fragility which a lot of schools are demanding everyone read a period of essentially every white person should apologize for being white and will have been 200 plus years ago. >> that's exactly right, this is part of a push within the education system to adopt the tenets of 1619, critical race theory and intersectionality. the idea that you can divide teachers, students and institutions into oppressors and oppressed, it's a reformulated 1960s marxism that they are pushing through race series and epic studies and miss martin is at the heart of the effort. >> brian: and now she's going to an extremely powerful position and leads the west coast. meanwhile, let's bring in the president of red renaissance. you know she captured the imagination of every republican who had a spirited race to be the next congresswoman from maryland and replaced elijah cummings. what is your response to critical race theory, are you
4:32 pm
thinking to yourself, about time? or why now? >> we know why now, this is something that biden ran on and something that kamala harris supports but this will further the racial divide. he talked about unity and talked about healing but when you do something like making white teachers take antiracist therapy sessions or going out and talking about how they feel against certain students against others, what that will do is really hurt the students in the long run. for me, ms. martin was once a student. she was an educator but she was once a student and she learned just as these other educators did it doesn't even defy logic today. if they felt the education system was not the park, how does she feel she is qualified to be deputy education? >> brian: there was nothing whitewashed, no pun intended come about it.
4:33 pm
in 1976 i was in fifth or sixth grade and i remember routes was on. nobody was saying that slavery was a good thing, it's a horrific thing. even the founding fathers say this is our original sin, echoed by george w. bush. what are we supposed to do now? >> i think we are going to see unfortunately an uptick in homeschooling and private education. i think there will be a lot of parents that will push back and say, i don't want to send my kids to school learning these types of things. right now we have kids that don't learn much about american history that they know all about gender studies. or these social studies. that's not that important. you want your kids to be educated. right now during the covid pandemic a lot of parents found out whether or not the kid was great at virtual learning or whether or not they can homeschool and i think we will see an uptick there. it's sad to me because i think a lot of democrats voted for biden because they thought he was a moderate and now it's kind of like feeding the beast.
4:34 pm
he has to appease to the radical left and it's sad. one of the public has been terrible about trying to get the average american vote. mitt romney, john mccain and george w. bush. he doesn't pander but there has been a strategy. you mentioned that's why he lost georgia. to let the african-american community know, it's a party of lincoln that wants them to be part of that now. >> i want to basically support candidates who are running in these areas, it doesn't matter what color you are. there are people in urban areas that want to see better like i did in baltimore city and the republican party needs to support these candidates. we want to help the media and if they had a little bit more in atlanta they might have won back at david race so it's critical, they have to do it.

owners and what happens to the landlord. miami business owners crediting governor desanto for keeping order open for a chance to be successful and that the pandemic. most states continue these closures. the experts that want lockdowns to go on forever who wrote this today. who decided we should aim for risk-free society? if two masts are better than one, why not three or four or five or eight? for that matter when we reduce speeding to 10 miles per hour indefinitely. joining us right now is carol mark with you. no kidding, you were a sped up as i am. the pandemic is hitting the country and the numbers are not zero in florida but per 100,000 they are below new york. only we are locked down and almost 80% of revenue is down because businesses are down for the count. how frustrated are you? >> very frustrated. i'm frustrated that it's been over a week since governor cuomo woke up and said it wait a minute, we can't stay close, we won't have anything to open.

and yet still indoor dining doesn't exist in new york city. when people hear that they think of five-star restaurants or whatever new york is known for but think of the pizza places on the coffee shops on the diners. they are all closed, too. you can't sit down and eat at any of them. it's a disaster in new york and the fact that the numbers have been improved is really telling. i wish people would make policies based on those numbers but we haven't seen that at all. >> brian: people in california are saying what about us? it's even worse there because it's portions in new york are a little bit more open. when the vaccine came out, you had the roof. as soon as a vaccine came out they said it, don't take off the masks. why? >> that's the new. the new line is even after you are vaccinated you have to keep the mask on and you have to keep social distancing. i think people have gotten pandemic fever and have gotten this insanity where they don't think that they can live with any percentage of risk whatsoever and i'm sorry, that
4:42 pm
isn't real life life. you can't leave with them i with the wife. even at home you will have some risks. safety from this virus is never going to happen, celebrate the fact that we have the vaccine and go back to our regular lives. >> is it counterintuitive to let americans have settled this country by moving out west and did not know what was around the corner? there was no drone or hagstrom map to tell us where to go. we did it anyway. we went to texas to start a new and there was no safety net or welfare, there was no unemployment insurance. >> absolutely. that's actually right. it required at leaving where you were and coming to earth and starting a new and i think that we really lost that perspective. we've become this really afraid society and we've become so averse to any risk. our politicians promise to keep us safe by, you know, taking
4:43 pm
away schools from all the kids. it's dangerous this path that we are on and i want to see us get off of it and the vaccines will help us get off of it if we can trust in that. >> brian: if we get them there with great numbers and have a plan once they arrive, kids have to go to school. the risk is greater for them to stay home then go to school. we've already seen the effects of a lost year and lost interaction. they are only young once and the chance of getting it is so slim, how can you possibly rationalize getting the school closed unless you have a mirror that sleeps until ten and the naps for two hours. >> i'm very concerned about september. i could honestly see our politicians saying it's not safe for kids to go back to school full time but that's also only in major american cities. in the suburbs and private schools and cities, kids are in schools. it's only private schools in cities where kids are not. >> brian: good to see you.

and how is that not the same as eating indoors? >> there is zero logic to what's going on. >> somebody explain how if you build an indoor structure outside, that is no outside, even though it's inside? it makes no sense. >> if these politicians are not getting paid until they opened up, they would open up. but these business owners don't get paid unless they open up and they are not in control. >> that's why i'm so passionate about it because barstool has grown and it's no overnight success, it took me two decades. ten years may be before i turned a profit. if this thing hits at year number ten you rip away basically my entire adult life's work. i have no say, i have no fight. the thing that helps small business owners, you control your own destiny. look at these structures. this costs money, this costs
