federal government and the fed flooded the economy with this money because of covid. the supply chain issues, now we are where we are today. benjamin: corporate greed is a great narrative that fits with what they want to say. corporations doing this, not the administration and she tweeted a few days ago saying exxon and chevron were doubling their profits and it was their fault, those corporations but if you look at the share prices of those 2 companies exxon is down from where it was 6 months ago, chevron up a little bit, outperformed by the market. doubling their profits you expect share prices to be skyrocketing, they are not. corporate greed is what she would like to push. carley: she was pushing with the poultry industry when talking about turkey prices, she was

saying the poultry industry, a few major companies should be investigated for price gouging. benjamin: surprised to see 54% of all poultry in the us is supplied by four companies with what seemed to be quite few. mom and pop one, the farm selling chickens is what you should be getting. carley: president biden played the soundbite, america is that, there's nothing we can't overcome. he is right about the fact that there is nothing americans can't overcome. but it would be easier if the federal government got out of the way, the coronavirus mandates, the vaccine mandates causing some people to quit their jobs when there are so many people finding it difficult to get employees to work for them because all this money that went into the economy people are still staying home so small

black friday has nothing to do with race? >> no one what it means makes me think this isn't something that is actually offensive. carley: the host a reality check with david smith, the reason they were asked the question, they were responding to a chicago tribune article right here, talk that black friday should be renamed so it is not discriminating and profiling against black people, one person's opinion published in the chicago tribune and you heard the responses. >> let's go back a little bit more. of 2019 article, this is an anonymous piece, we have no idea who the writer is. it should trouble you the college students paid 21,$000 a year to live on campus are not doing their research a they take an anonymous opinion as fact and now they are called out on it. by the way in this anonymous

piece they call black a nationality. this was written by buddy who should not have been published by the chicago tribune or any other rag nets out there but what is really dangerous, these kids buy into it, they push this narrative, they go out and do it. they offer economics degrees, they offer accounting degrees and they don't understand what being in the black means. >> it is a financial term. >> parents watching these kids. >> it's not their fault. they are in college, they are younger. >> buying on this one. carley: the campus reform woman says do you think it sounds racist and they say maybe we should change and then the financial term, that is a good point too, maybe not. >> we were all gullible young, i was never that gullible.

these kids, this is a problem in society, the overwhelming approach pushing black and race and everything but these kids, you are in college. carley: the best part where a couple students who said they don't want to support black friday because they don't like capitalism or consumerism so they don't like small businesses making money or buying things. >> how to your parents if they are paying for your college tuition, 21,$000 a year if they live in state and on campus pay for that did they get that from nonsense a resume? carley: president biden in the today show yesterday said america is back, listen to this message from the president. >> america is back, there's nothing we are unable to overcome. >> santa is coming, mister president. >> president biden: i'm not waiting for santa. >> a small business owner doesn't feel that way. he is still feeling it.

is a restaurant owner and he says he's counting on small business saturday to make up for a lot of losses because of the economy, the supply chain issue, inflation is affecting a lot of people. >> to get back in the black. biden is billed back backwards. there is no better here. this is someone who doesn't want the economy to function as it does. the president has theorists and ideologues and keynesian economists. look at his nominee. when you nominate someone who gets the lenin personal performance scholarship to go to college in the soviet union. carley: another topic on the financial front has to do with vice president kamala harris. she spent $500, facing criticism over this, spend money on.

is this nitpicky or do you agree with the criticism? >> i don't care what she wants to spend. one of the producers told me it was julia child's favorite shop. i knew julia child. carley: that is a whole segment. i went to know what julia child - >> about me and drank a lot of port, she loved to drink port. the border is going to pot. kamala harris said she smoked and inhaled pot. i would have been better off if she bought pot and smoked it and stopped doing hernan job in the white house and wouldn't eat anything out of that pot because if you look at her policy and performance don't want her cooking your thanksgiving. i'm glad the shop owner got some money because in a heavily socialist nation where they are paying the price, that owner needs it to survive. carley: she can buy the ingredients. here in america i am sure she

will. thank you for joining us. happy day after thanksgiving. i am feeling it. over to you. benjamin: the time is almost 20 minutes after the hour. and internal revolt is brewing up a liberal new york times including walking off the job and blasting the paper for low pay and unfair labor practices. who needs this win when you have a supply chain crisis? we talk to the owner christmas tree farm who says you might want to get one now before they are all gone. ♪♪ ♪♪ i just want to be there tonight ♪♪

carley: the supply-chain crisis and labor shortage threatening a cherished part of the holiday season is christmas trees may be hard to come by. one tree farm expect their stock to be sold out by next week. todd gannon joins me to discuss.

thanks for being with us today. we heard about the difficulty getting toys and other household goods this christmas but haven't thought about trees. you say it is down to a perfect storm. explain. >> it started back in 2012 when we experienced significant drought across the us. when that happened a number of the new planted baby trees died. it takes 8 to 10 years to grow a christmas tree so you fast forward to today and that is when these trees would be available for cutting. the last couple years, less than adequate moisture so haven't got growth the trees. we saw some of these issues coming and prepared for from inventory management knowing we would have less stock and bridge the gap but this year we add on top of the labor issue which is a lot of forestry going to get their trees out of the field to get cut and loaded on trucks

when there's a trucking shortage. everything came together to create the perfect storm. benjamin: talk to me about the labor shortages? in the past people come in and help you supply them. is that dried up this year? >> it is a struggle. we are running a shorter period than normal. someone calls in sick we will be done another person going into black friday. it is a challenge to get people to come and work. benjamin: looking ahead how does the future look in your business? >> most of us learned from the past, we are planting more trees and trying to be prepared. the tough part with christmas trees is it is not a decision to affect one or 2 years out, you need to plan 8 to 10 years out. benjamin: some of these

statistics amazed me was 94 million us households with the christmas tree last year but 85% of those were fake, 15% live. i had no idea it was that much. are you seeing that number shift and more people buying fake trees now? >> this year you will see a shift back to fake trees but the last couple years we've seen an increase in demand, pretty good movement across the country to get back to local and farm fresh but we are afraid we will lose the moment in if we don't have a supply to provide people. benjamin: talk about the prices. we are talking about how prices are rising across various sectors. how do you think christmas tree prices are rising? >> across the industry up anywhere from 5% to 50% depending on the location and what is driven by the cost of fertilizer, cost of labor is up, cost of trucking and everything we are utilizing has gone up significantly.

benjamin: you are the owner of a christmas tree farm, you might be out of stock next week. anyone who wants their tree, go get it now, go get it in time and by the real thing please. thanks for joining us today, appreciate it. >> got to get the real deal. let's go to meteorologist adam klotz with the fox weather forecast a real treat your face? >> real tree and now but thanks giving is overtime to put them up and feel like winter. there are plenty of places across the country where it feels a colder side, or the winter reside. prefrontal boundary across the country. if you live on the east coast temperatures in the mid-40s, off to the west 20 degrees in chicago early this morning, 28 in kansas city, 32 freezing in memphis early this morning up frontal boundary, you see the cold air and warm air together, typically showers and storms.

the backside of this is where the cold air is. heavy rainfall up and down the coast and behind everything in the blue with colder air, light snowfall will fall not just this afternoon but into your saturday also, so we have winter storm watches and warnings from extreme interior new england, that turns into snowfall but temperatures cooler in the eastern half of the country but if you live in the middle of the country some 50s and 60s so it will be fairly comfortable. not bad in the middle, good flow. benjamin: thank you. carley: what is coming up? benjamin: we are not in the middle. the time is 20 minutes, 29 after the hour, we just heard from a christmas tree farmer about a 3 shortage. according to time magazine it is all your fault.

leading to an internal revolt among employees, the union fighting for 2.5% pay bump, reporting record-breaking third quarters during an earnings call. benjamin: inflation is a major concern to most americans but the liberal media downplaying soaring costs, some even shifting the blame to the american people. carley: here to react is joe concha. we should be grateful for the 6.to increase in inflation but check out this yahoo finance headlines that says christmas shortages are gift, save money, tons of aggravation by exploiting the shortages to cut your shopping burden. it is a good thing. >> screw your kids, don't get them gifts this year. accept the little one. nothing beats being told by the

headlines like that talking about how this is a national tragedy. benjamin: pointing the finger at everybody but the administration, everyone else's fault. i your views on another story. seth rogan, comedian, supposed to be a funny guy tweeted this. he shrugged off in la car merger and said i have lived here 20 years, you are nuts. it is love we here, don't leave anything valuable in it. it is called living in a big city. we have to come to terms with crime, nothing we can do about it, can't put more police on the streets. it is a way of life now. >> speaking of the richest one%, seth rogan, before i came on in the range of $80 million. he can afford to have his car stolen. i have a feeling he has a backup car or can afford uber x. is seth rogan still relevant?

that was great but that was 15 years ago. i got my money back from the greenhorn it and neighbors too. he made a big movie lately? i don't know. carley: he said he got his car broken into 15 times and he is okay with that. apparently he is a very generous person was i wouldn't be okay with 15 times car break in. the washington post posted this tweet about the waukesha tragedy. here is what we know on the sequence of events that led to the waukesha tragedy caused by an suv. they deleted that ten revised it to what we know about the sequence of you ands, they took out the suv portion because it sounds like they didn't want to talk about the person

responsible for this being a black person who had been let out on bail, miles long criminal rap sheet. >> i don't know what to say about that. don't let the interns run the twitter account that has millions of followers during the holiday but you see the rap sheet on this guy, he never should have been free in the first place, tried to run over the mother of his child a couple weeks ago when he got out on very little bail and even here there is bail set, $5 million, this person shouldn't breathe free air ever again. he mowed down grandmothers, children, killed and 8-year-old kid, seem to have done it intentionally if you watch the video evidence and the media is trying to soften this thing. this is a national tragedy. the president should have gone

to wisconsin and consoled those families instead of going to nantucket because this was something like we saw in nice a couple years ago where someone ran down people and to make this guy about the suv like it drove itself, it wasn't. this was intentional and horrible and there are people in the hospital suffering. i don't know what to say except to end on a happy note you know the rules here, good to see todd got the day off. what is going on here? a little r and r. >> todd has that cute little baby at home. benjamin: he is working. still ahead, hold the stuffing, colleges across the country knocking thanksgiving is a day of mourning, jack brewer joins us live coming up.

>> a string of costly smash and grab robberies alarming police. blaming soft on crime policies adopted by progressive da's across the state. carley: jack brewer is the ceo

of the brewer group and he joins us now to discuss. jack, we have all seen the videos of the out-of-control looting in california. now some even democratic lawmakers are saying that things need to change. there is one democratic state senator, her name is melissa hertado. she says the state of california has been doing it wrong it needs to change. i guess the question though, jack, is will it? >> i don't think so. unfortunately. there has been such a push in the criminal justice rejust relet people instead of rehabilitating them. that's unfortunate for families in the united states. also for inmates in the prisons and in the jails. they need to be rehabilitated. so, when the resources are now put into some woke civil rights movement with what they call it social justice movement, that really is not helping anyone. unfortunately people are getting criminal justice wrong. we have to be smart crime.

we can't just go in and think that our liberal policies and our feel good policies and our emotions to lead to this because as you see businesses are getting wrecked. people's lives are getting wrecked. and we are not doing our job which is our obligation to the bible says in rehabilitating folk. >> jack, i want to get your views on another topic here. the george washington university student association sends an email to students on monday stating that thanksgiving day is a reminder of the genocide of millions of native people, the if he has been native lands and relentless assault on native culture. it does seem remarkable that the joint college alumni message about thanksgiving also said the recent shift from columbus bay to indigenous people's day reflects a changing national mood. should americans reconsider thanksgiving when wrestling with

our complicated past there is a movement to now cancel thanksgiving. what do you make of it? >> it's disheartening, it really is, because there is a change in national mood. these leftists and these liberals are trying to pull god and spirituality completely out of our country. in every segment of our society. and it's ridiculous. this is the time to celebrate our freedoms pray over our families and friends and communities. give thanks for the many blessings that we all have in the united states. you know, you start taking your blessings for granted they slowly slip away before your eyes, i think in so many different ways that's happening to the most underserved americans, i got a chance to spend thanksgiving yesterday with about 100 folks at our center, praying together, enjoying each other and that's what this nation is about. it's about folks of all races coming together and celebrating everything that's good. and so when these universities start indoctrinating our kids, it's time for the adults to

stand up against that and so i just encourage everybody to speak louder, stay more faithful. pray louder and claim the name of jesus christ over this land. carley: no surprise those statements were made on college campuses because a lot of these anti-american ideas start there. and they affect young people. and young people's outlook on america. how do we fight back against these ideas? you say that, you know, adults need to get together and pray together. expand upon that idea a little bit? because i think this is really important how to fight back against these anti-american ideas? >> i will tell you it starts with the kids. we have to get in the community and start to let the kids understand the importance of spirituality. we can't run away from our past. we can't run away from the bad things that have happened in history. but you have to highlight the positive and have to show the

reasons where they are going and indoctrinating kids with crt. the mentality that you have a oppressors and those that are oppressed. you are actually right. you do such a great job fighting back against those ideas. jack, thank you for that sentiment as well -- ♪ ♪ oh sometimes ♪ i get a good feeling, yeah. ♪ a feeling i never ever ever had before ♪ i get a good feeling, yeah. lawrence: you are looking at sixth avenue. that's where the parade was yesterday, after a long one year when we weren't able to celebrate. joey: looks different this morning. lawrence: it was blocked off. they had it all blocked off for security
