africans with two centuries of american slavery that left millions in chains or dead. >> todd: i'm not going to life, her table will be a blast tonight. congressman, how does someone like joy reid get to the point where that is what she thinks and that is what she focuses on for a holiday like thanksgiving or we are kind of supposed to put everything aside and focus on friends, focus on family and just have a day where we celebrate being american? >> absolutely. >> carley: let's give it a second. >> very close to the 1619 project. speed to go ahead, congressman, we lost you for a second. >> okay this sounds close to 1619 project peer that has no place in thanksgiving just like no place in our classrooms. you know, this vision, this theory we should go back and revisit everything and revise

what i see this past week for example a combination of patients coming in testing positive for flu and influenza, rsv and covid appeared a little bit of everything and testing negative for everything means another type of virus, but the good news is, todd, most of my patients the symptoms are mild. i haven't had to hospitalize too many patients and those who i have had to send to the hospital are the younger ones with complications from rsv. we compound all of this was shortage of basic medications, it becomes a problem even though rsv and covid and flu all viral infections, sometimes secondary bacterial infections which requires an antibiotic peer that is hard to find sometimes. >> todd: in those instances the antiviral medicine can be life-saving because the disease can be the ones that ultimately really makes you sick or god forbid kills you. why is this happening?

because so many people getting sick at once or supply chain issues or why, dr.? >> wood is a combination. it is ca dome at community gap. we have lockdowns, shutdowns and social distancing and masts. we don't get exposed to the bugs and bacteria to build up our immune system. so babies born during the pandemic, they see these viruses for the first time. for some of them it is severe. and a shortage of medication like tylenol, fever reducing medications antibiotics because of supply chain issues and because of a lot of the ingredients produced overseas or manufactured in places like india, china and bring that manufacturing back to the united states to not worry about this bottleneck effective shortage. it is not just about antibiotics and things like tylenol. other important medications like cholesterol notifications,

cancer meditations, high blood pressure medications. so we really need to work on bringing back manufacturing to the united states and make sure we are not prescribing unnecessary medications and that prescription that are unnecessary. most don't treat viruses. >> todd: children's tylenol because you think there are not a lot of options but what alternatives do parents have? >> it depends on your age. based on their weight and age, you can only use tylenol if over six months of age. you can use anti-inflammatory medicines like children's ibuprofen. but also hydration is important. if your child is feeling unwell give medication to help them with a runny nose for it if old enough, keep them hydrated and use a humidifier.

but try to prevent this from happening in the first place. especially during the cold, winter months but the best thing you can do is keep your hands wash and clean and make sure you clean and disinfect surfaces and common areas. that can help with viruses like flu and rsv. make sure you are a good thing a good well-balanced diet, stay warm, hydrated and getting a flu shot to shot and up to date with immunizations. >> todd: now would be the proper time to jump in on this and get these drugs back to circulation, doctor, happy thanksgiving, thank you very much. >> happy thanksgiving, thank you. >> carley: it is thanksgiving so 96th annual macy's day parade. and meteorologist adam klotz with fox whether forst cast from the start of the parade route, pay, adam. >> at the start of the parade route and as always, the start of the parade route, turkey town

secretary mayorkas is proud to advance the noble mission of this department with extraordinary workforce and serve the american people. the department will continue our work to enforce laws and secure our border by building a safe, orderly and humane immigration system. so, what is it like at the southern border right now? since the beginning of october, there have been 130,000 got a ways and 350,000 encounters and 53 deaths. there may be a ripple effect here on error safety. the air marshall national council voted piece for the "the hill" the air marshals sent down to address the crisis they are leaving critical caps on a number of what he calls high risk flights on a long holiday weekend when millions, todd and carley will be traveling. speed to doug thank you for that reporting.

the national border patrol council brandon judd on that front. brandon my belief we have you, there you go. great to see you. i think this marshall thing, air marshall thing will come as a surprise to a lot of people. you have hundreds of air marshals being taken from their post. these are trained guys being sent to the southern border described as humanitarian work during the busiest travel period of the year. what do you make of this? >> this is absolutely crazy and the typical robbing peter to pay paul for failures of the secretary. you can't destabilize one agency and expect that you will be able to continue to protect the american people. we expect there is going to be air marshals in the error to ensure another 9/11 doesn't happen. now that you are taking people out of the field, sending the clear message that it is open season for air traffic as a

means to harm the american public. you can't do this. another thing you have to look at it does not matter we have air marshalls or not, dhs is creating a safe and orderly immigration system. that is absolutely false. what we are seeing right now is anything but orderly. it is inhumane. if you think they clearly shows and sends a message to the cartels that they can do whatever that they want. and people can cross the border. we are not enforcing our laws right now. even if you have the error marshalls and continue to release in the united states, we are not creating a safe and orderly immigration system. this administration has clearly failed as far as border security goes. it is absolutely a free-for-all on the borders. >> carley: this is coming from dhs, the department of homeland security. the department was created after 9/11. now you have secretary mayorkas sending air marshals to the

border taking them away from their post to do what they weren't trained for and then straight humanitarian work. how far have we really come over the past 21 years since 9/11 happened? where is he on that? where are secretary pete buttigieg pushing back on this as well? >> we obviously have not learned anything from the past failures and past experiences. like you said, where is pete buttigieg? why is he allowing dhs to pull people out of his department to, again, destabilize one law enforcement agency to help another law enforcement agency when you are not doing anything for the border patrol by bringing these people over? we have got to have policies and programs. that will secure the border. not pulling your people from one agency to another agency. if we have the proper policies and programs, we could come in fact secure the border peer of

the novel idea is not put these in the machine. let's stop the drugs from coming across the southwest border. if we continue to do this, all we do is put a band-aid on the problem. we have to go in and go after the criminal cartels. we have to go to the enterprise. we have to go after their profits. if we would do that, we would save the lives of thousands of american citizens on a daily basis. instead, what we are doing is showing the american people that this administration does not care about their lives and safety. and the security of everybody in the united states. >> carley: it would be better not to have the fentanyl in the country then these vending machines at all. thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you, carley come appreciate it. >> carley: absolutely pure at a quarter of americans planning to spend less than $100 on thanksgiving day this year with the cost of inflation 20% higher. >> todd: how are families making things meet?

he's in nantucket. amber, happy thanksgiving. speaking of the holidays, you want to talk politics this thanksgiving, don't worry the white house has you covered with talking points on president biden's so-called accomplishments and it includes tackling inflation and lowering the cost. and republicans are extremist. >> t>> carley: arkansas mike huckabee to talk about this one but lawrence jones what is coming up on "fox & friends" happy thanksgiving. >> happy thanksgiving, family purity coming up on "fox & friends," we are making a turkey. in case this is your first time or running short on time, the thanksgiving first, joins us live on becoming children's tylenol. what to do. plus joining us to live on the southern border. plus, joe concha is here and fox sports, college football

analyst brady quinn previews the game. top of the hour, don't go anywhere. happy holidays from lexus. ♪

encourages you to tackled inflation and lowered cost. to have a great start there. also provides some bullets on how to argue that republicans are extreme. here to react former arkansas governor and former presidential candidate mike huckabee. governor, happy thanksgiving to you what do you make of this list bringing white house talking points to the dinner table? >> happy thanksgiving to you and todd. you know, this is amazing. i would never have known what to sit and talk to my family about today as we are celebrating thanksgiving dinner. i'm so grateful to the white house. you have a lot to be thankful for. i'm thankful that joe biden's white house decided that none of

us were smart enough to come up with a conversation so he is going to give us the lead and tell us how we can talk what auto nice gift from the people at the white house. we are talking inflation a lot these days. that may be the most inflated assessment i have seen from a political figure from a guy who can't put a sentence together for god's sake. if it's written on the card maybe we can get through it. >> todd: that's the point. they are used to making these cards for the president and now they are making them for the rest of the country. just based upon the fact that i am not senile i can say thee points beautifully without a card. one point on said card that gets my turkey because i'm not eating goat this holiday. are they ever going to stop with the line that they created jobs because, governor, allowing jobs to come back by removing draconian democrat city lockdowns isn't creating jobs

and allowing capitalism to thrive, if you will. >> no yeah, it's almost like taking credit for the sun coming up in the east and say, look, all night long it's been dark but thanks to us, it's daylight today. so, just get down on your knees and thank god that joe biden is in the white house. the sun is shining somewhere. >> carley: governor, as you know, elon musk is now head of twitter and he is really trying to revolutionize and change the company. there is a "new york times" op-ed that does not like that. they are calling musk extremely hard core. and he is like a b bot on steroids. worst nightmare email ever. elon musk is no ordinary boss. it's safe to assume he didn't get the memo on empathetic leadership. to mr. musk, hard core meant log hours at high intensity, workplace where only exceptional performance perpd.

culture where midnight emails would be just fine. you can make the argument that the person who wrote this op-ed is arguing against hard work. and exceeding and excelling in the workplace. >> yeah. it's really sad the "new york times" is really unhappy that adults would be expected to earn their paycheck by working. i want to see the "new york times" opine about the conditions of many child laborers in china who are working for big multi national american companies. they are silent about that. as is people like lebron james and others who are making millions and millions of dollars off the backs of these child workers. these are not adults who decide that they want to work for a company, these are kids that are forced into slave labor. let's let the "new york times" jump in on that. i would be thankful for that on this thanksgiving day. >> todd: good point. meantime, it is thanksgiving. what are you thankful for, governor? >> wonderful family. god has blessed me beyond my wildest dreams. when you look back on the way i

grew up which was some poor kid in south arkansas, i'm living better than i ever dreamed. i have seven fantastic grandchildren and today i will be deep trying one turkey and smoking another one for about 30 people piling into my house on a rainy thanksgiving. it's going to be a wonderful day. and i thank god for every moment of it. >> carley: when i saw that he would were having you on i was thinking about what your thanksgiving celebration would be like because i know you have a big family obviously your daughter just won her election. it's going to be definitely be a memorable thanksgiving in your household this year, i'm sure. >> yeah. and i have got to start paying a little more respect to my youngest child, the daughter who is about to become governor. i'm sure she is going to expect an extraordinary new level of deference as she takes the oath of office january 10th. >> carley: she seems pretty down to earth to me. >> todd: will the governor elect still be making her pecan pie or

pecan? excuse me. >> she better be. it's on her list to bring. if it's not there she may be sitting at the kiddy table. shall glad to hear about your celebration and it mirrors so many others spending thanksgiving with their families as well. >> todd: happy thanksgiving, sir. >> happy thanksgiving to you. >> todd: and to all of you as well.
