give me 50% off anything i'd buy in the store. >> carley: so you pro spam email. one person in america that gets the junk email and it works on them. i love your fact about black friday. i did not know that. i never shop black friday or go to the mall or anything like that. but there is a small business saturday and we just had this great panel of people on the show a few minutes ago and all small business owners. things have been rough for small business owners the past few years. so tomorrow is important for them and then there is monday and you can shop in your jammies on your couch which is what i like to do. but the sales, the years, it is not one day but like a whole week or two week extravaganza appearance be one that is a i like small business and go out and hit the surf shops to keep them in business. by the way, did you have a great thanksgiving? >> carley: i did. it was a wonderful thanksgiving.

this is my family on the left, my dad when my husband and my mom on the other side. my sister and boyfriend justin. so the family came to new york city to spend time with me and my husband and made the track in and last hour, so true, giving them big props because they had to battle the parade traffic and barriers. thanksgiving is a nightmare to come to new york city, but they did it anyway to see my husband and me. the restaurant we went to, quality bistro. i've never been there before. there are a few quality restaurants, all over new york city but this one was really good, really pretty, and the food was delicious. what did you do? >> griff: your pictures look so awesome and professionally done. i stayed at home and cooked with my family, and i took pictures sitting at the table. as a photographer i did a portrait mode. half of the family is out of focus.

i did have to take an action shot of the turkey because i felt like that is something you are supposed to do. we bribed that thing or my daughter did. it turned out amazing. and then come of course, the gravy is the most important, cherished job in the family. madeline taking over. she knocked it out of the park. she is now the gravy queen. smooth, just the right taste, oh, my goodness, so very, very good. >> carley: you know what it is about the first picture, you are trying to protect your children's identities, lurking in the background. >> griff: this, by the way is rascal looking at my plate. he didn't want to look at the camera. >> carley: what kind of dog as he because he so cute. >> griff: a jack russell and the house involves around making sure he has the comfort he needs. he obviously got some last night as well. >> carley: that is so great. the last thing about my

thanksgiving that i will mention is my parents and my sister came early because, you know, we have to go to bed early to wake up for the show. so, my husband and i before bed, still hankering for turkey and thanksgiving day food because we ate sorely. so more food from a diner. it was honestly really good, too. we had a very successful thanksgiving. a little nontraditional but maybe next year i will cook a turkey. >> griff: there you go. >> ca>> griff: we will send youe gravy recipe. meanwhile, he could be harder to get groceries, gifts and other goods with possible massive strike looming. >> carley: this is not good news and president biden contradicting the white house where things really stand. kevin corke live in washington with more, kevin. >> carley, griff, good morning the white house messaging on potential rail strike is, at

best, mixed. i want you to take a moment and compare what the president said about possibly getting involved with one of his press secretary what they had to say about that. first up here is mr. biden. >> i have not directly engaged yet. we are still talking. >> griff: okay, they are still talking and he hasn't directly engaged. now compare that to what the press secretary said about the negotiations on tuesday. speak with the president indeed involved directly. i don't want to get into details at this time, but he has been involved. he remains focused on protecting america's families. we have to avoid a rail shut down. >> okay, well, somebody is either not telling the truth, or more likely, the word didn't get out from one end of the building to the other. by the way that happens on current administrations. this is a real thing. whether he is or isn't engaged in the talks, it is obviously

the white house team is working behind the scenes to avert potentially a shut down. the impact of which could be devastating to the u.s. economy. let me show some numbers. and this will crystallize why we believe this will be potentially a dramatic and possibly catastrophic rail shutdown. we are talking about not just the holiday shopping season but all the shipping. think about the boxes and stuff that have to go everywhere. and around 160 billion job loss, 700,000. and in case you are wondering diesel fuel costs keep rising and rising and rising. if you are not going to get it out there by rail, you have to get it out there by truck. and that's more than premium in a lot of places. economists a potential rail strike, frankly, does not come as a big surprise. >> so much of the goods and services, you know, half of the stuff we get at the stores, the

groceries, the oil and gas comes on real. >> the reason for strike is happening is because it of inflation. these workers are getting crushed by inflation. >> they are getting crushed by inflation and millions of americans are. for what it is worth, these inventories are lower than typical this time of year because the u.s. continues to export. lots of european countries impacted by the war in ukraine. and perhaps the producers and a name for consumers, guys. >> carley: certainly something to watch because time is moving quickly. december 9th is around the corner. kevin, thank you so much. >> you bet. >> carley: nancy pelosi's decision to step down from democratic leadership but likely successor with backing policies. a commission to study possible slavery reparations. >> we are talking to david webb about that next. there he is. ♪ ♪

my room. >> griff: rub it in. rub it in. >> i have got to do that to you, buddy. we've been at this too long. let's take this for what it is. i will apply democrat logic where they say we are all bound to something that our ancestors did. and kamala harris' father claimed to be a descendant of hamilton brown a rule slave owner in the 1800s and the island of jamaica. i will contrast that. where do i get my check? my ancestor led the rebellion in jamaica. so jeffries come i will agree with you when i get my check from kamala harris. look, this is ridiculous, that is real world that i gave you but i don't hold people to ancestry. 1619 project, which references in the clip you ran is a complete lie about american history.

and we need to look at a nation that is involved and where we were back in those days. we were not even a nation back then. but now look at this country come up with so many around the world from all forms of actual slavery. the fact that our economic system has freed many from economic slavery. reparations is another drift like black lives matter, crt programs and all of these raise equity programs come a diversity, equity and inclusion. real opportunities and we are such a diverse nation. here in this country, the color of her skin, it doesn't matter. you have a chance. we have an opportunity and for those who need help, we have the ability to do that. the progressives have taken over the elitist spot and gets a position and they will keep pushing this falsehood on the american people. by the way, black people, where

does your check come from? who pays your check? not all blacks belief in this and it's not just david webb on fox news. go out there and talk to blacks around america. you realize they want save communities. they want good communication and kids in schools. they want to future for themselves and they want to be what america promises. >> griff: by the way, democrats have control of congress and the minority and how that will work out but let me switch gears david here or there early in person voting in georgia and that is a runoff race. and the biden administration will do anything to help raphael warnock including stating out of georgia, it seems. raphael warnock does not want biden to go there and campaigned for him. what do you think? >> because they have to pull off the light they have been telling georgia voters for a long time

that raphael warnock represents georgians. raphael warnock just like what jeffries talked about, represents the hard-core left in this country. they are interested in dragging the country down and away from what it is. people in georgia are smarter than that. i hope more than smarter to understand that the drift from stacey abrams who managed to raise $110 million into a packed, overall fighting lawsuit for $25,000,009.4 million. raphael warnock represents and what does he actually doing the job except support the leftist policies? georgia farmers, black farmers, white-collar domestic farmers, any color farmers they need to help your georgia farmers deserve better. if georgia wants to remain a free state and a part of the american do, don't elect a far

with a budget under president trump year of the center for renewing america. thank you for coming on. i hope you had a great thanksgiving. i want to get right into this as people head out to shop. let me show you a recent survey of american shoppers who found 51% are buying things for the holidays because of inflation. 36% say they will be using more coupons and 27% are scaling back on gift giving. what do you make of this? >> this is a basic response to what consumers, families, small businesses are saying right now. they have less money at their disposal. inflation is up. everything is costing a lot more. we saw thanksgiving with people not being able to have the expensive food spread and be able to have the thanksgiving day dinner at the same level they were previous years. so families are making decisions on the basis of that year that is one of the reasons why we

have to get this economy growing more. you have to tackle inflation and be able to get the fundamentals and a situation where families are not having to make these kind of decisions because of the economic reality that they are facing in the supermarket or today as they go out for black friday. >> griff: you are right. and the cbi indexes prices are up nearly 8%. you know, we did hold the country but let me show you the fox voter analysis of what issue matters most to you as you properly pointed out, it is the economy and jobs. of course, that is due to inflation and abortion, immigration and health care. even though it hurts our pocketbooks, the ballot box, if you will. that is not going to bode well for businesses. >> no. i don't think so. i don't think it will improve next year either. but thankfully, we have a new

house majority coming into office and the new year and perhaps we have some sanity to allow us to be able to have a different energy policy that gets all of the above or at least all of american energy without substitutes back on the table and allows us to stop spending money that creates inflation hole and allows people to just save money and not have fritter away and made a fool. but then have money to spend it when they need to and not be making decisions based on the high prices that they are facing. we have got to get beyond where we are as a country right now. >> griff: just in the last 30 seconds with speaker kevin mccarthy coming in, we presume, is there one thing you would advise him to do to get the inflation under control? >> well, i'm not sure it will be kevin mccarthy. there will be a vote in january

and my enough conservative speakers to deny him speakership. but to be sure, they have tackled spending with an abandon -- a focus and determination to get spending under control. that is all they have an opportunity to do through this reparations process. >> griff: that will be something to watch. who will the speaker be? thank you very much. have a great weekend. >> you too, griff, thanks. speak to the fox weather forecast, good morning, adam. >> trekking a little bit of rain on the eastern half of the country but warmer temperatures as we look early this morning the 50s, 50 degrees new york city 53 dallas, big cold front stretching across the middle of the country and as soon as you hit that temperatures drop drastically to the west. 50 degrees in denver, but everything off the eastern side of the country where we see showers stretching again from texas where we see the warm air wrapping up the east coast. it will be a soggy day for most

especially vaccine mandates with illegal immigrants allowed to enter into the schools? and the d.c. government is all in her face with this hypocrisy, this lawless. who does this affect the most? the lack families and especially single-parent homes. and we are standing down only because we need to get our children and schools and not have them affected by being out. plus covid tests, if we didn't have enough covid tests, this would be a totally different story. >> griff: you have a great point, stacy. montgomery county, montgomery county of maryland, one of the most liberal areas of this capital region give out the tests, but they were not requiring a covid-19 negative proof to come back. what is going on, patrick? why is the district doing this?

>> good morning. yes, this is another example of democrat overreach and a big city. griff, d.c. school students were out a better part of the year and forced to take virtual learning. we lost a lot of kids. and disproportionately impacted, disadvantage constituencies with huge overlap with the african american community. this is another barrier to learning for the district of columbia. this is unusual orthodox and not being done anywhere else. it is just another wall that d.c. public schools and democrats in the city are putting up to prevent here or there is no reason for this whatsoever. >> griff: stacy, is there any recourse? who can you call? the superintendent and mayor muriel bowser? >> you know, i have tried

calling and for other reasons. they will be involved in our decision-making when they feel like it. yes, we can call all we want, but the word around town is you won't get a call back. you will barely even get any response by email. and then, who is to say that these covid tests or even valid when done at home? i remember when it was before and after i had a covid experience. my daughter was trying to help me take the covid test. i kept trying to get the swab of my nose. these tests, who is to say these test results are even real and correct? >> griff: well, you raise a good point. you raise an interesting point, those are tough tests. here is what i want to focus on, patrick. our parents voices being heard

on this issue? >> you know him as parents of the district are so beaten down because frankly, there was a period of time when we were just grateful to be back in school because our kids were camped out for so long probably longer than any other american public school students here in the united states. and so come again this is another example of democratic overreach and the district of columbia. they want to take us back to the spring of 2020. you know, i'm just concerned if we have a little drop in covid over the winter, they will feel and work especially the d.c. teachers union to shut down schools again. >> griff: there are a lot of concerns as a resident of the district. and the city council vote to reduce violent crime. it is unbelievable. patrick merrick, stacy holcomb i think you for getting up early and being with us today. >> thank you for having me.

>> thanks, griff. >> griff: now this the border agency seizing 1,000 pounds of cocaine at the texas border worth $1.5 million. the cdc says after canine search at the bridge, the officer searching the big rig found 119 pounds of the drugs stashed inside. the director says the seas is a great example of agents with failing vigilance and guarding the border. well matt, how about that, carley? >> carley: i was reading about the statistics when it came to fentanyl. last year died of fentanyl poisoning and already suppress that 75,000 american deaths. the drugs are still pouring into the country. the biden administration will look at those drug seizures and say, clearly the border policies are working because drugs are getting caught of the southern border.

they are not able to enter the country. that is only a part of it. if you are catching that amount, think about all that is going through. and we had jonathan fahey on the program earlier in the show. he was talking about the fact he was looking at all the cocaine seized $1.5 million worth. he said the drug cartels are making a shipment of that size into the country. they know the risk and the loss of money would be on the line for them if they ship something so indiscreet, indiscreet into the country. but because they are so confident it will go through because so many other drugs have been successful going through, they are willing to take the risk, which really does prove how poor the poorest the border is. >> griff: sutley to quote a cliche "business has never been good for the cartels and people in the smuggling business. we see it everyday day in and

day out, carley. >> carley: we have to think the border patrols because they are the unsung heroes and to some even though they are working to keep americans safe at all costs. you work with them a lot. they are great people that don't get enough credit. all right, it is black friday and we have the deals that you don't want to mess with current cyber guy, he is coming up next. ♪ ♪

really his competency and his ethical ability to be the president of the united states and people made discusses. there was evidence that people made decisions based on that false claim that wayman out on the laptop and it could have changed the election and the 2020 election was decided in the swing states by 42,000 votes. over a millions and millions of votes. hundreds of millions of votes cast or nearly 100 million votes cast. this is the difference in the election. >> todd: let me quickly sneak in a topic. you are in the business community. inflation concerns reach a new high with black friday happening today forcing many to turn to small business saturday. are you going to shop today at the mall or do the small business thick on saturday. >> well, i'm going to shop small business. all of our customers and the people that drive our economy particularly in upstate new york where i represent are small business owners, and the small

business owners need our support. i used to run articles every week about why we need to support our small business owners and we will miss them when they are gone. we have seen that quality and customer service and things that our small business community and small retailers can offer us is unparalleled. i urge everyone, wait for small business saturday. get out and vote, yes, but get out and shop and make sure that we support the small business community. >> they early are the ones that are donating to the little league. they are donating to our charitable organizations in larger quantity that even the big box stores. let's preserve them and keep uniqueness and identity that is wouldn't essential american to all of us. >> griff: they kind of are voting, if you will, only with your wallets. you raise a great point top issue is inflation and we care so much about those small businesses.
