thanks to my panel and thanks to all of you for watching. i'm paul gigot, hope to see you right here next week. ♪ ♪ arthel: president biden gearing up for his first full week in office which will include a different focus for each day starting with buy american monday. it comes after the president signed a flurry of executive orders on issues like immigration, the environment and fighting the coronavirus. hello, everyone, welcome to "america's news headquarters," i'm arthel neville. hi, everything. eric: hi, or arthel. hi, everyone. thank you for joining us on the fox news channel, i'm eric shawn. president biden also taking action on the economy. he signed orders yesterday to provide food assistance to low income families and protect workers' rights during the

coronavirus pandemic. the white house says one of the president's top priorities will be passing a nearly $2 trillion coronavirus relief package. president biden is hoping for a bipartisan support, but right now there seems to be little an tighten among some republicans to pass -- appetite among some republicans. we're joined by mark meredith live from the white house. >> reporter: good afternoon. president biden has no public events on his schedule for this weekend, but as you mentioned, there really was a flurry of activity these last several days as he tried to roll back so much of president trump's executive actions. among the things the president was able to work on this week, recommitting the u.s. to the paris climate accords, pausing some deportations, mask mandates on federal property and also extending a moratorium on evictions and foreclosures at least through the end of march. but the president, he can't do everything he wants by executive action. he's going of to have to work with congress, that's why he's calling on lawmakers to pass a

new $1.9 trillion stimulus package. as you said, some lawmakers are reluctant over this price tag, but the president insisted that relief is needed now more than ever. >> on the covid-19 package that passed in december was the first step, as i said at the time it's just a down payment. we need more action, and we need to move fast. >> reporter: tomorrow the president's economic team is expected to hold a phone call with key lawmakers to discuss what an economic package could look like going forward. former california senator, now-vice president kamala harris also appears to be reaching out to senators eager to make a deal. >> so she will, she will be actively involved in selling this plan and gathering support. as you know, with a 50-50 senate, bipartisanship and the ability to work across the aisle is even more important to this administration. >> reporter: the senate is already moving quickly to confirm some of president biden's nominees. we saw secretary of defense get

confirmed yesterday, that man now at work with over at the pentagon. we do expect to see more final votes for the treasury and state department coming up in the next week. meantime, on monday the house is expected to send over its impeachment article to the senate, and, of course, opening arguments for the trial won't be getting started right away. they're going to wait about two weeks after that happens. republicans had urged for more time to allow the president to build his ea defense team, but the big question is how long is it going to last, is that going to derail what the biden administration hopes to accomplish within its first 100 days, all questions everyone in washington's going to be asking as the trial gets ready to get under way this february. eric? eric: yeah. defense secretary lloyd austin on the job on this saturday. mark, thank you. in a few moments, we will analyze the president's week ahead and if he can get the republicans to go along on some of his plans. we'll be talking to bob cusack on that. meanwhile, tomorrow we'll get

republican reaction to the president's executive orders. chris wallace will talk exclusively with senators mitt romney and marco rubio. and maria bartiromo will speak with arkansas senator tom cotton on "sunday morning futures," a full day of politics, analysis and news for you here tomorrow. arthel? ♪ arthel: as many as 5,000 national guard troops will remain in washington until mid march following outrage after police ordered them out of the capitol building and asked them to camp out in an unheated garage in cold temperatures. now, those were the same troops deployed to d.c. to protect our nation's capital for the inauguration following the january 6th insurrection. lucas tomlinson has more from washington. >> reporter: new hampshire

governor chris sununu says he ordered his troops home as quickly as possible after they y were kicked out of the u.s. capitol. >> took a lot of us governors by surprise. and i simply said, look, they don't complain, but it's the my job to make sure they're not put into those sub-standard conditions, so we pulled them out. >> reporter: not all the troops will be leaving anytime soon. the national guard is cutting forces from 26,000 down to 7,000 by the end of the month, but as many as 5,000 will stay through mid march out of concern some protesters might return for the historic inauguration date of march 4th. before 1937 all presidents took the oath of office in march. top lawmakers on both sides of the aisle were outraged over the garage incident and offered an explanation for who gave the order. >> this is what happened, there was one uniformed police officer who issued an order without authority or without going through the chain of command. >> no one from --

[inaudible] and no one understood why, but they're gone, and they all -- [inaudible] >> reporter: over 100 national guardsmen deployed to washington have tested positive for the coronavirus. the guard blames the capitol police for the garage snafu, the police deny the accusation. no reporters asked about the garage incident at the white house press briefing yesterday. fox wasn't there for that one. but president biden reportedly called the national guard chief to apologize over the incident. arthel? arthel: lucas tomlinson, thank you. eric? eric: arthel, meanwhile, police continue to make more arrests more than three weeks after the deadly attack on capitol hill. federal prosecutors have now charged michael joseph foy of michigan with assaulting police during that attack. they say foy was captured on video hitting officers with a hockey stick, and he could be later seen on video entering the capitol through one of those broken windows. meantime, authorities are still searching for this person suspected of planting a pipe

bomb or pipe bombs, both outside the democratic national committee and the republican national committee offices on capitol hill right near the capitol. the fbi and atf increased the reward for the capture of this person to $25,000 for any information leading to the suspect's arrest. they can be contacted online at fbi.gov or 1-80-call-fbi. someone has got to know who this is, who they suspect planted pipe bombs to try to attack the republican and democratic national committees on that horrible day. arthel? ♪ arthel: eric, some breaking news. a protests in almost every city across russia turning violet. looking at pictures here in moscow as supporters of opposition leader alexei navalny are taking to the streets, this in defiance against president vladimir putin with some marching in temperatures as cold

as -58 degrees. kitty logan is live in london with the very latest. kitty, what can you tell us? >> reporter: hi, arthel. those protesters have mostly dispersed now, but these were some of the biggest opposition demonstrations seen in russia for many years. in moscow alone around 15,000 navalny supporters were out on the streets. they chanted free alexei navalny. russian authorities had warned people to stay away because of the pandemic, but there were scuffles as police carried can out mass arrests. this was from the very start, and they were often seen using force. independent monitors say more than 3,000 people were taken away including navalny's wife. those detained on saturday face possible jail time for defying the ban on protests. now, navalny himself was arrested on arriving in russia from germany last sunday. authorities say he'd breached

previous parole conditions by staying out of the country, and many world leaders have condemned that detention. navalny is, of course, a strong critic of president vladimir putin. he's been recovering in berlin for the past phi months -- five months after a suspected poisoning with a nerve agent. now, he barely survived that attack, and he claims the russian state was behind it. moscow denies any involvement. but now navalny's supporters are defiant, they say they'll be planning more protests next weekend. the u.s. has condemned russia's detention and said all prisoners taken into detention on saturday in these protests should be released. back to you, arthel. arthel: okay, kitty logan, thank you very much for that report live there in london. eric? eric: well, arthel, there's one lucky lottery player in michigan. that person now a billionaire. that's right, i said billionaire after winning the mega millions

jackpot in last night's drawing. the ticket owner matched all six numbers, and here they are: 4, 26, 42, 50, 60 and 24. well, officials say it is the longest time the game has gone without a jackpot win and, man, is it a jackpotment alex hogan live in new york city where two $1 million tickets were sold and, alex, i assume because you're still with us, you didn't get the million dollars in the lottery. >> reporter: unfortunately, eric, no, it's not me today. but as you mentioned, a $1 billion ticket, that was drawn last night. so someone in michigan will be very, very lucky. now, they do have to reveal their identity, but they do have two options moving forward. so, one, they could take some of the money and then have the payout over the next 30 years, or they could choose the cash which is about $739.6 million before taxes. this is the second largest single-ticket jackpot in u.s. lotto history are.

the first being $1.5 billion won in south carolina in 2018, of course, making everyone day dream about becoming a billionaire and how they would spend it. >> i have a whole list of things i would do. new shoes, new car, new house, heater for my pool, send my kid off to college, so lots of good things. >> i don't have to be the big winner, i could just be four numbers would be good. >> reporter: ten tickets matched the five white balls to win the second prize creating million theirs all around the country. -- millionaires around the country. each of those worth between $1-2 million. third place isn't too shabby, 187 tickets, and that prize will get you between $10-20,000. and those prizes were not enough, just two days earlier someone in maryland won the powerball. it's the fifth largest single-day lottery prize in u.s.

history. the more than $731 million ticket, it was sold in a small coal mining town. now, lucky for them in maryland, the law doesn't require people to reveal their identity, so, eric, that person could remain anonymous. eric: wow, that's pretty amazing. all right, alec, we'll see. i -- alex. i won $50 in texas once, that's the best i ever did. >> reporter: congratulations.

immunity within a reasonable period of time, and i have said, hopefully, that will be as we enter into the fall and edge of the summer. arthel: that's dr. anthony fauci giving a timetable on when the u.s. could return to a sense of normalcy and what it would take to get there. this comes after president biden unveiled a full-scale wartime strategy to combat coronavirus on his second day in the office. let's bring in mike leavitt now, former secretary of health and human services, former governor of utah and former administrator of the epa. so, secretary leavitt, how do we get there? based on what you know about president biden's vaccine distribution plan, i mean, he invoked the defense production act, can manufacturers produce vaccines fast enough to meet the president's goal, and more importantly, the demand? >> i can, i'm more concerned about being able to get it into the arms of people than i am to manufacture it. we can continue to ramp up

manufacturing, we'll administer manufacturers as time goes on -- add more manufacturers as time goes on. but getting anything distributed to 300 million people is a tall order. we're not as good at it yet as we need to be, but anytime you start something from scratch, it takes some time. if we were trying to feed all of america a hamburger, we could send them to mcdonald's, and they'd have the infrastructure and the systems, but we're not. we're trying to get them vaccinated for the covid-19, and we have to set up, improve it, learn from it and just continue to get better. arthel: uh-huh. and do you have any logistic suggestions? >> well, i think one thing is that we all have to be, to acknowledge that this is going to take a little bit of time. i'm impatient. i yet haven't had the vaccine. i want to have it, and i think lots of americans feel that way, and they should. so we all can do our part by being a bit impatient, but it's all hands on deck.

my suggestion is we have to realize from what we've learned so far that getting too granular in the way we parse this out slows us down. i think the goal ought to be get as many places issuing or administering the vaccine as possible and just get it to available arms. arthel: understood. and i believe that they're planning to set up lots of mobile units and what not to make that happen. but we hope for the best, of course, because as you said, i'm waiting for mine too. i can't wait to get it. but here's the question, if you already got your first dose and say it was a pfizer shot, can you get the moderna shot for your second dose? >> not being a physician, i'm not up-to-date totally on the science. i did read that there are certain of the vaccines that that they can mix, and i think public health authorities will be, at a local level will be well advised at that point. arthel: well, you know, you have so many hats, i threw one more

in there and made you a physician. [laughter] sorry about that. as you mentioned a second ago, the confusion, it has carried over. people still don't know where to get the shot. so, you know, day four on the job how much time does the biden administration have to get the system set up and up to speed and to get it right in the how much time do they have? >> well, i have some experience with this. not just pandemic planning, which we did a lot of during the time i was secretary, but i also rolled out the prescription drug benefit program to 45 million people all at the same time. and it's a challenge. you have systems that have to be coordinated, you have to have people who begin to work together better. it takes a little time. it took us three or four or five weeks to the point that it really started to roll. and i think we can expect to have that kind of logistics snag, and i think we should expect to see it get better. i think we've already learned, for example, the lesson that if

you try to become too granular in the way you say we're going to send it, first of all, to those who are health care workers and then, second, to those who are 75 and in nursing homes and then, third, to educators and so forth, that the logistics of trying to coordinate all of that get in the way. the point is we need to be distributing or add moring as fast as -- administering as fast as we are distributing and as fast as we're manufacturing, and that's going to take a little time to coordinate. i think within a few weeks we're going to see this become a much better oiled machine, if you will, and that we'll see improvement. arthel: very good. and, you know, as long as there is transparency every step of the way, which is what president biden has promised regarding this including if there are any snafus, and we don't hope for that because we want to all get out from underneath this horrible pandemic. do you think that would be -- go ahead, sir. >> communication is really

important here. we've all been on an airplane and had something go wrong. and if they keep you informed, you are more patient. if they keep you in the dark, then you become impatient. so it's incumbent, i think, on state and local officials to be very transparent with people, to say this is realistically what you can expect, here's how you can get information and do the best we can to communicate well. arthel: secretary mike leavitt, i appreciate your time and your expertise, and we will have you back again. thank you very much. >> thank you. arthel: eric? eric: well, now to our exclusive fox investigation of what happened to jimmy hoffa. you know, our series riddle: the search for james r. hoffa is now streaming on fox nation. you can watch the first three episodes now, and next friday, january 29th, our fourth show debuts, and you will see what we found. potential new evidence about where hoffa's remains could be buried. hoffa was murdered back in

detroit in 1975, and his body -- we and the fbi were told -- was sent to new jersey, stuffed into a metal barrel and buried at a mob-connected dump in jersey city. so we went there using ground-penetrating radar to look for buried metal barrels at the exact spot we were told he was buried. and wouldn't you know it? something suspicious is there. you're saying your father buried jimmy hoffa. >> yes. eric: jimmy hoffa was brought in, buried in one place. but your father actually buried him nearby but not in the original -- >> yeah. eric: did you see hoffa's body? >> oh, no. all i know is my dad later in years, he said that he couldn't fit it in the drum body first, feet first. they had to turn him and put him in head first. eric: so your father said hoffa

couldn't fit in the drum? >> he couldn't the legs to bend right. eric: is that met aal in. >> yeah. eric: several round-shaped metal objects buried here, some on top of each other, and this is another spot right near the first one which is right -- that's the -- >> yes, right there. eric: -- what could be a barrel. this would be the spot. and it's exactly where frank pointed out to dan -- standing right here saying this is where jimmy hoffa is buried. is buried. well, the show riddled: the search for james r. hoffa, season four, starts next friday on fox nation. and you can watch the previous programs so you can get caught up for our big show, number four, and what we found next friday on fox nation. arthel? arthel: it really is a fascinating series, so if you can, definitely check that out. well, he did 50,000

cusack, editor-in-chief for "the hill," joins us now. bob, it's the famous hundred days, hearkening back to fdr. he's rolling back a slew of trump policies, stopping construction of the border wall, rejoining paris climate accord, establishing low income funds all with the stroke of a pen. what else do you expect to be coming? >> well, i expect a lot of regulations eventually and more executive actions. as far as legislation, there are no easy layups here. i mean, this is the slimmest democratic majority in many decades. so, i mean, it's a good thing for democrats that they won the two georgia races because they do have control of the senate, but the covid relief package which is number one on joe biden's agenda is already running into some turbulence on capitol hill. republicans are not going to go for anything, i think, that starts with a t, meaning trillion, and biden has proposed $1.9 trillion. so that's going to be, i think the, a long slog. remember, the last bill on covid took seven months to actually

get done. this could take a few months ago well -- as well. they could pursue minimum wage, i'm not sure they have the votes for that either, so this is going to be difficult to get legislative stuff done in the first hundred days, eric. eric: is it possible, as you mentioned, he's got that as his priority, $1.9 trillion, could they pass it like the trump tax cuts are passed with just a simple majority versus the 60 votes? what would that mean if they did that, they just said we're the democrats, we're doing what we want, we don't care what the republicans, as they always say, our friends on the republican side of the aisle want, what could happen? >> i don't think they're going to do that right away. i don't think that would look good because it runs counter to biden's message of unity, and he does have a good relationship with mitch mcconnell. so i think they're going to try to work with the republicans but, yes, they could use that budget maneuver and then pass a covid relief bill with stimulus checks just on a party line vote, though they would need all

to be together. so that could be done. but first, eric, they actually have to pass a budget and with larger majorities over the last couple years, house democrats haven't been able to pass a budget. passing a budget that's going to get bernie sanders and joe manchin to agree and vote for it, that's going to be very difficult. eric: yeah, i know. man, talk about two disparate type of asides on that. you just mentioned stimulus checks. 8 million people haven't gotten some. we've heard 1400 bandied around, could you give us the latest for those folks now watching, waiting, hoping to get something, what can they expect? >> well, the checks are popular because they are bipartisan. i do think if democrats say, okay, we're going to move the $1400 check, i think that could get 60 votes. certainly would be a fair amount of opposition to it. now, some like ocasio-cortez, she wants it bigger, she wants $2,000 checks. but i do think the $1400 checks

can pass on its own. however, many on the left saying, no, no, we're not just going to accept that. there's a a lot more we want like state and local aid, and that's a non-starter for republicans. eric: of course, he is a creature of the senate after many decades, has deep personal bonds with many. here's what "the wall street journal" editorial page said the other day, quote: mr. biden could be the man for this moment. he is a moderate liberal with sympathy for the working class who is inclined to work across the political aisle. with the 50-50 senate, he also has good practical reason to do so. at 78 years old he realizes he is likely to only serve one term and could create an admirable legacy as the man who calmed the trump era furies. that, at least, is our hopeful case for the biden years. how can he do that? do you think he will be able to do that? everything that he has learned and everything that he has achieved in terms of personal

bonds with others and negotiating in the senate -- what he's learned, can that work? >> it's possible. i still think this nation is so polarized right now, and it goes to motivation. mitch mcconnell and kevin mccarthy in the house, what's their motivation? they could easily win back control of congress in a couple years if it's good for them. if a deal is good for them, they'll sign on. but if it's not, they're going to block democratic wish lists. remember, mitch mcconnell has called himself the grim reaper of democratic liberal ideas. so it's going to be very difficult. but, you're right, joe biden has these relationships, and maybe he can do it. and that is something that obama did not like to do. president obama did not like hanging out with members of i can't think. joe biden likes that -- members of congress. joe biden likes that, and that's going to help him. eric: ronald reagan having bourbon with tip o'neill after

5:00. we'll see. bob cusack, always good to see you. arthel: well, eric, tributes are pouring in for legendary talk show host larry king who died today in los angeles. he was 87. larry king's broadcasting career spanned half a century, and he conducted an estimated 50,000 on-air interviews with world leaders, hollywood stars and just regular people. let's wring in fox news -- bring in fox news media analyst howie kurtz, host of "mediabuzz". howie, what made larry king a great interviewer? >> well, larry king, who i knew quite well, was a classic brooklyn character. he could talk to anybody about anything. he didn't make it about himself, he asked short questions, he didn't pretend to be an intellectual. he was a guy with a late night radio call-in show who put it on tv. he had all these celebrities on starting in the mid '80s, and he didn't interrogate them on. it was a safe place.

all that changed in '92 when ross perot declared his candidacy on larry king live, and then bill clinton started coming on. clinton said larry king liberated me by getting me directly to the american people, he didn't have to go through some annoying reporters, so that made his show as much of a political platform as a celebrity schmooze fest. arthel: why did he transcend the media to become an icon? not many people can do that. >> yeah, no, it's difficult, and especially with that kind of longevity. i think people just liked larry. i think the fact that he didn't seem to have an overwhelming ego helped him. i mean, he had this incredible range. o.j. simpson called in to his show the day after he got out of prison, you know? with all the -- and he ended up talking to world leaders. i think he asked the questions that he thought the people at home would want to ask. he once asked ronald reagan, what was it like being shot? it wasn't something that a sophisticated journalist would

ask, and i think people just liked him and that voice. arthel: yes, yes. any personal memories or stories that you have of larry king? you said you knew him well. >> yeah, i was on his show a dozens of times. if you went on with a book, he would not read the book, he didn't want to be weighed down with a lot of prescripted questions. he was the same off screen when i had lunch with him, very sort of street smart guy, talked the same as an interviewer. arthel: where'd you all go to lunch? >> some fancy downtown d.c. restaurant where he had a regular table. arthel: of course you did. [laughter] absolutely. and he should. an awkward switch right now, howie, to katie couric who seemed to be set to succeed another icon, alex trebek with, as the new host of jeopardy, and then she went on bill maher's show last week. let's take a look at a clip. >> when you think about how awol

so many of these members of congress have gotten, but i also think some of them are bleeding the garbage that they're being fed 24/on 7 on the -- 24/7 on the internet, by their constituents and bought into this big lie. and the question is how are we going to almost deprogram these people who have signed up for the cult of trump. arthel: so according to "the new york post"'s page six, because of her comment to bill maher, katie couric might not be the next host of jeopardy. have you been able to confirm this, howie? >> no. and i don't know that she was ever scheduled to be more than a guest host. maybe it was a tryout, i just don't know. but i do know that katie couric's words were offensive. i've known katie a long time, and i like her. who is she talking about? is it all 74 million people who voted for donald trump? are they all just part of a trump cult? now, look, former president trump has gotten plenty of criticism, even from some republicans, even some of his

former aides for what he did surrounding the january 6th riot. for katie couric to then broaden that, i always think you're losing as a commentator when you go after the voters, when you go after ordinary people and say they're all a bunch of racists. i think there's been too much of that in the trump era. now, she's entitled to her opinion, she's no longer the anchor of the cbs evening news or the cohost of today show, she has a podcast, but i think those were not well considered remarks. arthel: maybe, howie, you can get her on your show, maybe she wasn't talking about all 74 million people who voted for president trump because, you're right, they are not all like the people who showed up at the capitol and stormed the building. so maybe you'll get her on and she'll tell you what she met. >> i've been watching her twitter feed to see if she wanted to clarify her remark as, so far i haven't seen that. arthel: maybe she'll come on with me, and i'll get the scoop over you, howie. [laughter] >> try your luck.

sentenced to life in prison. and you know that group has gone largely unnoticed. joining us now, criminal justice reform advocate, president of the can do foundation so, amy, you were pardoned. you had been sentenced to, i mean, a long, more than two decade prison term. so what do you think president trump's message was and is in his pardoning of you? >> well, i think it was largely due to my participation in helping get the first step act passed. i am a formerly incarcerated person that he expressed interest in granting pardons to people who were formerly incarcerated who helped pass the first step act which he signed into law december in 2018. it brought home literally thousands of people. i don't think very many people are aware of that.

eric: can you describe the first step act? what does it do and what is your role in it? the -- >> well, we lobbied very heavily that, a number of democrats to get onboard at the congressional level, and it barely made it through the senate to help change a lot of things within prisons, there's a lot of prison reform, and there's some sentencing reform. it brought home a lot of african-american people who were sentenced to the 100-1 crack cocaine ratio level which is very racist and then compassionate relief was broadened under first step act. so many people have come home under compassionate if release during covid that would not have had a chance to even apply where judges are now releasing them from prison. eric so the president, through that act, which is a signature

accomplishment of his administration, number one, number two by pardoning you and giving clemency to 31 or so other nonviolent drug offenders sentenced to very long prison sentences, sometimes life, the president was sending a message that, look, they're nonviolent, they can make a contribution to society that these long sentences from the past are really unfair? >> correct. and a number of people also received a pardon who helped participate in that. the message is that we don't need to have people who were serving life for marijuana in prison, and one of the people that i wrote this petition was michael pell tier. i wrote a petition back during the obama administration, but he didn't get a response.

after the obama administration finished with its clemency project in 2014, so i supplemented it and submitted it to the trump administration. he's a paraplegic pot lifer. he lost the use of his legs when he was 11 years old, and he had already served over 13 years, and we just don't need paraplegics serving a life sentence for pot. there were 12 people who received clemency from president trump for cannabis cases alone. so we need to get all of 'em out. i wish he would have granted them for all of them, but somehow some slipped through the cracks. we submitted jimmy romans petition as well, and they received clemency for cannabis. eric: finally, the president is known to watch this channel. if he is looking at you right now, what would you say about

your pardon and what he's done for others? >> thank you. i'm humble, i'm so appreciative. i don't think that president trump gets near the credit -- it's almost like he doesn't get acknowledged for many of the policies that he's implemented that have impacted millions of lives. at can do we are all-volunteer organization, nobody makes a salary, and my vice president who is a schoolteacher had her fiance come home, david baron's. ironically, obama had granted him clemency, but he didn't actually get out. president trump granted it, and he's now home. eric: we're going to get hit by the clock here, i apologize, amy, but you have part of the can do foundation that try to

[cheers and applause] arthel: i just got chills all over again. man, who can forget the moment when hank aaron made history, breaking babe ruth's home run record back in 1974. today, unfortunately, the sport world is mourning the loss of the baseball legend and civil rights giant who died yesterday at the age of 86. charles watson is live in atlanta with more. charles. >> reporter: hi, arthel. baseball legend hank aaron certainly left his mark on major league baseball and the nation as a whole, that is evident

today as we see dozens of fans show up to this memorial site bringing flowers, balloons to pay their respects to the legend. obviously, this exact location is significant, this is where aaron eclipsed babe ruth's a all-time record for the most career home runs with his record-breaking 715th homer at the fulton county stadium. chasing that record proved to be costly in the jim crow south as aaron received thousands of racist and hateful letters shortly thereafter. despite that, he continued to live up to his nickname, the hammer, ending his career as the all-time leader with 755 home runs. >> i think about my mother many, many years ago when she told me, she said, son, she said, if you chase your dream long enough, you'll find out that you can fulfill it. >> reporter: and in retirement he returned to atlanta and the braves organization working as an executive to help develop a
