tucker: have the best thanksgiving and we'll be back tomorrow night. have the best evening and food with the ones you love. >> sean: hello, everyone. welcome to the special edition hannity. i'm tammy bruce in for sean. the white house is reminding americans to be thankful for joe biden's and we the people should be thanks them for. gas prices and roughly double under biden to the record levels of unfunded spending that caused

inflation to rising taxes and planning on raising them even more on everyo. except for those making above 400,000 a year and one more thing to be thankful for according to the biden administration. to forego that spent ski profit and the economic effects of excitement change. in other words, they can now throw your retirement savings into fringe green technologies and other money with consequences. meanwhile abroad more bad news, in ukraine the war continues to rage and will likely continue indefinitely, in iran issue the administration's precious nuclear deal has fallen apart and iran's supreme leader

referring to biden as demented. let's -- god help us and not forget about the vice president's big trip to asia, watch this. >> hello, hello. hello. hello, thank you. hello. hello. >> sean: saying hello, thank you. we're not in good hands. former ambassador scott brown and adviser to president trump, steven miller. gentlemen, scott, let me start with you. i, we know that the world similar perfect and the people are imfect and it's the united states of america and it's 2022 and we're in this volcano and seem to not be able to get out and take on cascade of absurd iy

we're faced with. >> joe biden thinks he has a mandate and the house is a slim margin in the senate and he's undeterred and he'll keep marching along with the bad pollties that continue spending that we don't have the money for quite frankly and you see what's happening here and it's like upside down land and throw in this list of accomplishments, okay, great. you got that. we could go on for like a whole roll of toilet paper, the amount of -- >> sean: it's what we need to clean it up. he's makig choices that an enemy of the

country is making including pouring money, it's an agreement from the climate group that we're going to, you know, make up -- make it up to these supposedly third world countries developing nations like china as a developing nation. we're going to give them our money to make up for the damage we've caused because of climate change. what is driving joe biden at this point. >> it's a deep seated contempt for america as we know and love it. the nation founded on judiah kris can principles and a nation founded on the family. a nation founded on the idea that the law is our master, not man. all of these sacred principles of western civilization and enty of borders and that there are men, women, and how the world was created and how muay manty was created. all of -- humanity was created

and everything they're doing is indeed destroying the country on purpose. whether it be inflation, whether it be open boarders, whether it be shoveling our hardened tax dollars to foreign polluters to pay some sort of penance for our supposed pollution when we in fact have the best environment in the world. >> tammy: china and india didn't go to the meeting. they're not part of the conversation but we'll send china money because they're developing. scott, -- >> the world's number one polluter is china. >> tammy: in both cases, nothing we do will stop or change anything because of what thigh that's doing. this is the day before thanksgiving and we're looking at -- especially with their statement about what we should be thankful for. scott, isn't this about being thankful for the country and what the founders established. for our families, our families being able to think about the

future to make this country safer and more secure because it makes our families safer and more secure. isn't that what it's all about? >> of course. i'm thankful i have my family and new grandchildren and i pray every night everyone has the same opportunities that i and others i know have. this administration is referencing china with the developing country and new zealand new way cook, and samoa are developing nations and using to get a tactical advantage and not playing by the same rules and that's what they do. every inch they do to put us off balance and we have to have a strong administration to fight back and this add minute ministration from kamala harris saying that you can't, thank

you, thank you for what? >> tammy: baskets of dead animals going by her. it's remarkable. >> it's scary. it's scary and it's dangerous. i'm thankful we only have about two more years of the administration left. >> tammy: let me tell you, steven, you can speak to this as well. we saw the kind of extraordinary damage that happened within 18 months from afghanistan to the executive orders to the nature of what is going on with the education department. with woke policies we'll be getting into that a bit later. you have america first legal and you're working on a lot of fronts but the republicans on this -- having thanksgiving and holidays and christmas and, you know, moving into the new year, the republicans are going to have to do more than investigate things, aren't say, sir? >> yes, to your point, it's inconceivable how much damage has been done in 18 months. from afghanistan to the war in europe and catastrophe, unmitigated catastrophe on the southern border and i'm filing lawsuits as often as we can

relentlessly shutting down the policy and the house republican majority will have to investigate and have to subpoena and we'll get to know two incredible men well, james comerford and jim jordan, the chairman of the oversight and chairman of the judiciary committee respectively and we'll have to use the power of the purse to shut down the cataclysm of the southern boarder and illegal immigrants inside the country and house can do it and rally the whole nation behind them and in so doing set in stage a thundrous victory in 2024. >> tammy: 87,000irs agents going to be goose stepping around considering what people are having trouble paying the bills but we find enough money

to hire more law enforcement to come and harass american. gentlemen, thank you both very much for joining me the only thing. happy thanksgiving and appreciate it. >> you too . >> tammy: turn to the all important speaking of the importance of congress, the georgia runoff where early voting will in fact begin this weekend thanks to a court ruling. according to lit koenen, the president is -- politico the president is willing to do anything to help raphael warnock. the white house let the campaign know they'll do wherefore they need to keep the seat blue including stay out if need be. you know, it seemed to work during the midterm, didn't it. on the other side, republican herschel walker is bolstered by someone more popular than joe biden. georgia governor brian kemp. take a look. >> families are struggling because of biden's inflation and washington won't change unless we make them. georgia is doing better than the rest of the country because we stood up for hard working families.

herschel walker will vote for georgia, not be another rubber stamp for joe biden and that's why i'm backing herschel. >> tammy: that's nice and was very, very appropriate. in an op-ed on fox news.com and echo that sentment and detailed three key reasons to support herschel walker. deroy joins us to explain along with fox news contributor fox penn and leo it. talk about his points and what strikes me, i don't want to say it's like a panic but we wouldn't be having to do this if there wasn't this kind of open fight in the republican party against someone because families should be the first thing on people's mind. tell people the crux of your op-ed piece please. >> people in georgia, voters in georgia need to be energized and focused and people are tired after last election and it's

important to get herschel walk merri bowl place and having 51 democrats and 49 republicans with 50/50 senate and it's tied and kamala harris has to come in and break tie votes. that would put joe mansion and kirstin cinema in a position as democrats can block stuff that chuck schumer wants to do and having herschel walker in there allows that to happen. >> those are people who don't have the money to fight. >> tammy: you get a scary letter from the irs and send the money off. it's a remarkable overreach and

unacceptable considering what they've already done to the economy. mark, when we look at numbers, i know there can be a lot to discuss about what the republicans did and did not do. ultimately, these races are about local efforts of getting out the vote and machines you have and the democrats have done a very good job doing that. what are you seeing on the ground for georgia for these gentlemen? >> it's a close race and edge with warnock and the voting system lends itself towards democrats getting a lot of the younger voters out who are voting overwhelmingly for warnock. the republican turn out in georgia has been a little lackluster in the past year and so i think that the edge is clearly with warnock right now and herschel has to make up ground if he's going to win. i don't know if it's possible. i wouldn't give it up but it's going to take an energized electric that we haven't seen so

far. >> tammy: see, that's it. leo and again, gentlemen, i would -- the night before thanksgiving and these conversations it's important and it's early voting, leo, going to start on saturday. and this is independents tired of their lives and a chance to send another message and forget about what the sense will look like and biden and taking charge of our futures and both men have been with the opportunity for joe bind, he's a per son that

gonagra tafanely in georgia and he called georgia jim crow 2.0 and insulted the entire state so he's not welcome there. i guarantee you all her shall has to do is -- herschel has to do is focus on crime, inflation, security and those are the things missing with a democratic warnock. herschel can win this thing if he stays focused and has a unified republican party and that's what we have, tammy. >> tammy: i hope so. deroy, it's about getting out the vote and perhaps kemp can add to that and assist in that because he wasn't necessarily helping during the midterm. isn't there a difference though in this runoff than there was in the last runoff? before i think there were three people involved and some votes were coming off in that regard. what is it that makes this time around more difficult? i thought it would have been easier for him >> well, i think after the last mid terms when gop was expected to win 30 seats

in the house and win the senate, i think a lot of people are de-moralized and tired and i think a lot of us would like to go to the movies and relax. this is very important. we've got this runoff and we didn't want it but we have it and there's a big, big difference between having a -r evenly split senate and chuck schumer will do more and get rid of filibuster and if it's all gone, all hell will break loose and keep the energy going and get herschel walker across the finish line and have eggnog and go to movies and kick back. not a second sooner. >> tammy: mark, let me ask you because what people need to do to save the country is not like backing off the back of the boat and gnatses shooting with gnat

shoots at them and to remove someone like raphael warnock and added to the chaos and problems in the country with his voting record, should not be a very far reach and they transcend politics and race and certainly does affect people in urban areas more, the democrats have convinced their base of which i had been one till recently that this is the way life is and a new normal. do you see trends that we have seen in the-few election withs his tannics -- hispanics and blacks and a recognition they were portrayed and can see more moving to voting for republicans or just the person who's not going to run their lives. >> look, most of the movement and black community and latino community gradually more towards the republicans four, five points more towards the republicans and see that in the

numbers and didn't come through overall and i think because of good targeting, but warnock is running a smart campaign. he's saying he's out there for moderate vo vo voters and talk t bipartisanship and herschel on the defensive relative to the personal life and the campaign is playing out that way and how voters will see it. it'll be close and still has the edge and the trend in the election underneath the numbers was across a lot of working class voters of all ethnicities, somewhat towards the republicans and that's the underlying trend. will it stop and come across in georgia? warnock in a smarter campaign moving to the middle. >> tammy: doesn't it help when the proceed ya is coming with that message and that's one thing i think we have to acknowledge and both men warnock has a history of wife complaining about his behavior which seems atrocious and that

seems to not just exist in many different ways and in some degree, that's media and moves and doesn't move? media playing a roll in propping up warnock and myominorities going to the republican par and i that they represent the best interest for all people hispanics, blacks, whites and they represent the party of the middle class and democrat, tammy s a party of the elite. raphael warnock feels more comfortable in washington dc than atlanta, georgia. >> tammy: shifting and talking about bipartisanship. it is -- you can't take that seriously not with his history. >> you can't. the taxpayer union gets a rating

of six out of 100 and big fat f fail and raphael warnock said amazing things in the past and in 2016 america needs to repent for worship of whiteness and they should teach the black church and comments like that don't sound middle of the road and praising maxism and it was a moderate sentries ideology. ide. >> tammy: it's up to the people of georgia and we can hope that the republicans get that organizing frame work down and get some assistance in there as well. it is about on the ground, get out the vote, and overcoming any of that malaise. i don't know, he can just suffer with just control of the house. that's pretty darn good. and of course then we've got a couple more years to go before we can take everything back. gentlemen, thank you very much. appreciate it. even some democrats are blasting biden over the border. derrick carter, greg jerkins

retrocochlear and kierra davis weigh in when we return.

>> tammy: welcome back to the special edition of hannity. we experienced two straight years of record illegal crossing ands hard drugs pouring across texas border patrol agents suspended ands seized nearly $15 million worth of fentanyl and cocaine and we don't know the true scale of the drugs that make it across undetected and the biden administration doing nothing to resolve the crisis. nothing. even arizona democrats, katie hobbs and mark kelly are bashing the administration for doing enough. on capitol hill, house

republicans are calling on dhs chief alejandro myricas to resign -- mayor cast to resign and -- mayorkas to resign. 's proud to advance the noble mission of the department and securing our walls and securing our border and humane immigration systems. that could have been written by george or well. orwell. how long will dhs continue to have the nation. joining us now with.

when we hear about the fentanyl and the cocaine, it's not just about the amount of money, it's about killing american citizens where is that coming at this point? >> this should be a bipartisan issue, tammy, and it is. >> people towards the united states being in record and children as young as 6 years old to 18 years old both boys and girls it. is a humanitarian crisis and issue that's a national security crisis. we've seen it at the border and think about this. in october, 86,000 known got aways. in october, those are people

that just got into our country in one month and disappeared into the fabric of america. 230,000 encounters. this is more than we've seen. but really quickly, before you go on. this is what they want. this is the reason why president biden and his administration will not remove a failure like mayorkas because in their eyes he's doing exactly what they want. >> tammy: seems like they want this and say this is the mission. they lie and say they're controlling the border and cleaning up the trump mess. at the same time they say they're looking to impeach mayor as, what are your -- mayorkas, what's your thoughts on the ability to pull that off and what's happening now, is that really an impeachable offense as that point? >> investigation is absolutely merited impeachment probably is not. the constitutional standards for

impeachment is high crimes and misdemeanors. 15 months ago, republicans offered a resolution to impeach mayorkas and issued this 13 page memo justifying it and i've read it and it's constitutionally and legally weak. why? because disagreements over policies do not rise to the level of impeachable offenses os and stupidity and pollicis that are not high crimes and misdemeanors. the proper remedy is not impeachment but rather a change at the ballot box. elections, and just because nancy pelosi and democrats abused and misused the impeachment standards as a way to bludgeon donald trump whom they loathe and dystopias and it doesn't give licenses to others to engage in that same bad

behavior. but there does need to be a thorough investigation. >> tammy: yes, i haven't seen their had 13 page response and may in fact be weak. it's not just about policy, that doesn't exist by the way but as you heard from saratoga remarks this is about the incentives for human trafficking. it's about the drugs that are coming in. the fentanyl which can kill pretty much every american. the terrorists that we know have gotten over the border and caught some we know and ones we haven't caught. it becomes a national security issue and becomes a healthcare issue and becomes a mexican cartel issue. aren't those things a little bit different than policy disagreement s? >> i don't disagree entirely but it's not a high crime and misdemeanor look. 100,000 americans every year are dying of synthetic opioids, mostly fentanyl coming across our southern border. that's because of joe biden and

his horrible open boarders policy that's 273 americans per day with outrage over the mass shootings 10, 15 people and 273 people we are day who are murdered. >> tammy: that's my point. greg, i agree. cara, we look at your editor, you're involved in cultural dynamic of commentary in politics and this is what can be confused for people is this is causing the death of americans, it is seeming to be a national security issue, a crime issue ask healthcare issue. cara, from really your perch, how do you see this when it comes to how we handle this debacle at the border? >> well, i kind of agree with you, tammy, i don't understand necessarily what the definition of high crime or misdemeanor is if it's a way of not high crime.

people are dying because of what's going on on our boarders and our nation is dying because of what's going on at our boarders right now. so i don't know. i'm not the legal scholar here. i'm just the pretty face, tammy, if i had to say, something is a high crime. yeah, if you're leaving our border wide open on purpose and you're watching americans succumb to the crime and violence and drug epidemic that is just walting across the border and that sounds like a high crime to me.

>> tammy: obviously dealing with kids and school and the economy and jobs and wages and local crime and, sayre reigns st word and maybe it's about ending funding for what it is they're doing at the border is how to stop it. institutes a different kind of law firm action in the house. >> it will absolutely. absolutely and more than that and i'll make it quick, i agree with greg on mostly everything. this time i'll disagree on this because that border they know is wide open. we have children being poisoned in our country and they're not addicts. they're being poised by countedder fit pills on the streets and lost over 107,000 americans. the chinese are adversaries and chinese communist party and moving and do your job and the

republican party is going to take you on and end it we'll have other arguments with the nature of what we can do. thank you, everyone. coming up, authorities provided an update in the idaho murder mystery. we'll have a full report. plus, senator john cotton will tell you how biden is weakening the military and it's not how you expect. we'll be right back.

>> tammy: well cam bock to special edition of hannity. we have continuing to follow the murder in idaho. >> tam my, killer or killers are still on the loose. police have not announced any suspects or major leads in the murders of the four university of idaho students. fox correspondent dan springer on the ground and reports there's very little information coming from police and say the 911 operator talked to multiple people on the phone when the call was placed from inside the house of the murder scene. police say they pursued hundreds of pieces of information about kaleigm gonzalez having a

stalker but haven't showed permanent evidence. police can't say if one or all the victims were the intend target. >> we have the integrity of the investigation to preserve. we feel like that information is integral to us and how we conduct our investigation releasing to the public may or may not flood us with a lot of information that's not relevant or specific to what we're looking at. >> today police say they've collected 103 pieces of evidence at the scene and we'll keep you updated, tammy. >> >> tammy: matt, thank you. turn to a story out of washington dc. according to report from fox news digital, a top department of education employee appears to blame white supremacy for just about everything. this includes allegations that democracy itself is based on white supremacy and state that had so called fat phobia is really just white supremacy baked into every day lives.

at one point, this doe official, even bragged she walked away from a conversation because a "white male was talking too much. but the biden administration commitment to wokeness goes far beyond the department of education. in fact, arkansas senator tom conton says it's infiltrated the military. take a look. >> we established our own anonymous tip line last year and hundreds of instances of inappropriate training sessions or other kinds of commentary or misplaced priorities in the racist and senior military leadership and trying to address the annual line and write about it in my book only the strong and liberal progressives have an effort to neuter the military by cutting the budget and engaging in left wing social engineering. >> tammy: well, here now with more is the author of the new book only the strong, which is a great cover right there. arkansas senator tom cotton.

senator cotton, great to be with you again. what's interesting is you get these whistle blower reports, we see this in some of the messaging of generals and others who are facing for television and commentary, and we wonder if in fact we're preparing everyone to know what to do with pronouns but coming to dealing with the chinese communist party or iran or russia they really won't know what to do. can you fill us in here? >> cammy, it's a real problem and doesn't distract from the focus and all of you shows division among them as well and i wore that uniform years ago and my soldiers and superior and spored nathanial hackettes was

the red -- subordinates was the red, white and blue and we were battle buddies and contributed to a severe recruiting and retention crisis in the military as well and our service missed its targets for the mis-cal year that's en ended and i'm -- fiscl year and i'm afraid it'll get worse. the kinds of young men and women attracted to military service join because they want to serve that flag. they want to learn how to defend america and kill the bad guys. they don't want to waste their time learning how to use the right pronouns. it's a real problem that our military will be able to address more than in the last two years, new republican house and what we'll need in two years is a strong republican president and new secretary of defense and we'll make sure our military remains laser focused on training our young men and women in uniform to fight our nation's wars. >> tammy: i think people realize now with everything in the country this isn't about all roads leading to rome. we just have different sometimes about how we get to rome.

this really is about whether we have a future or not. you know, since afghanistan, russia was elmore boldened to go into ukraine because there was some sense that was going to be fine. iran is making noise at saudi arabia. they're calling biden names. north korea sending dozens of missiles that could mistakenly hit tocoya if one goes airport and china.

>> for the military, people die and national security in peril and only the strong and military faced consist budget cuts under every democratic president under jimmy carter and only gotten worse under president obama and joe biden under barack obama's third term and it's 23409 just the budget and it's the focus on left wing social priorities as opposed to training our young men and women to fight in our nation's wars. >> tammy: there's a sense and things you can do and perhaps in the senate and we don't want to be caught when there's the emergency and we're not ready. >> tammy, we've been trying to tackle that and with republicans now in control of the house not

going to work with great republican like jim banks and gallagher to advance some priorities and we can get some forward momentum and then the new republican president and secretary of defense i'm very confident and the military is unique and chain of command and moving quickly and strong leadership. >> tammy: only the strong, great time for chris mast and maybe even presents during in between. thank you, sir, for joining us. the i appreciate it. senator cotton. up next, is the left trying to cancel thanksgiving? of course they are. dr. nicole sapphire and victor hanson. stay right there.

had >> super spreader event and you should get covid tested before you even meet up with family members. by the way, this is the same guy that predicted winter itself would be a super spreader breeding ground for a new covid variant and covid itself. so first winter now thanksgiving and apparently nobody is safe. meanwhile the public schools and teachers union don't want to give up their pandemic powers either. this year students at schools in washington dc will all need a post-thanksgiving covid test just to return to class. here now with reaction is dr. nicole sapphire. it's interesting because that winter being the deadly winter did not manifest. we have rsv, which is a new respiratory illness in part arguably because of the measures that kept children out of being able to generate their immune system and we have this new

report, dr. nicole it says and suggests that people with long covid we should return to having masks on and those people continue to suffer and no real did i have in addition of long covid and no real tests and for me a lot of it, it's real and i fatigued for months after the initial infection but part of it also can be attributed to depression depression and other things but we're not allowed to talk about that. >> people are pack ago triple democratic and we're finding ourselves in that right now and talk about cold, flu, and rsv season. it's not new and anyone, any parent knows that every year during this time, you have a rise in rsv cases and rsv is one of those respiratory viruses that can be very severe, especially in little ones like under 6 months of age and the elderly and only thing going on right now is we're see ago rise in rsv and flu cases and they

happened earlier than usual and this is an epidemic and largely because of the last couple of years and it's not a testament to the benefit of masks. this is just evidence showing the consequences of the lockdowns and keeping children away from other children. they have not been able to be exposed to respiratory p pathogs and in fact nearly 1 100% of kis by the age of 5 have been exposed to rsv and most of the kids have not. that's why we're see ago rise in cases. as you mentioned, we have a new report from hhs that's come out and talking about long covid and we don't know what long covid is and we don't know that a lot of people after that one to two weeks of having a bad cold or mild through. they have similar symptoms carrying on and can be fatigue and neurological and they -- we have complaints across the board and don't though what it is and

what tripsed it and no data to demonstrate that either. >> tammy: if you see this every day a working doctor and do masks change this because for the last two years it didn't. >> we never said before the pan pandemic to put masks onto decrease the flu and rsv and doing that now doesn't make sense and there's no data showing that it's got clinical impact reducing hospitalization and deaths and even through covid. look at communities those with mask mandates and those without mask mandates, there was not a noticeable difference in terms of hospitalizations and deaths. so to bring back mask mandates makes no sense whatsoever and certainly doesn't in terms of long covid as well. you can see they're already starting to come back. even brazil has started putting mask mandates back on airplanes. >> tammy: it's crazy and keeps

us from talking about the real issues involved. thank you, doctor. with long covid there's no covid and can't spread covid. but this is a circular crazy talk going on here. thank you again, dr. nicole. now, with hours to go till thanksgiving, the woke left is going all out to make sure you're ashamed of a america this holiday season. here with more is senior fellow at the hoover institution and victor wants, they want thanksgiving to be canceled or at least forgotten. to not be as popular as holowean, let's say. what's going on out there?

>> when you look at thanksgiving, it was a tragic voyage across to the new world and they -- after one year half of the pilgrims have died and they were all starving almost and they finally got a harvest that they could survive one more year and it was a thanksgiving that was ebbing min cal and spent part of our traditions for one way or another other a century and the idea this is the politicized or weaponnized and once again it's a tool that they use to find oppression and hope they can affect the future. >> tammy: we have a hard break and excellent reminder, sir. happy thanksgiving and we'll be right back after this.
