♪ ♪ hur hurry up, santa claus. ♪ i sure wouldn't mind -- joey: welcome back this morning. this is the top of the 8 a.m. hour. we've got two hours of this exciting show left, and let me tell you, that christmas tree, it is impressive in person. rachel: oh, yeah.

joey: people walking by, they stop in awe. will: they walk by all the time. rachel: it's a place people want to have their picture taken. will: there is a good holiday energy in new york city. people here for their vacation. so it's a good time as we all turn the page from thanksgiving to christmas. joey: yeah. will: how about this? the white house is announcing a new solution to the rising energy costs. how? by giving chevron a permit to pump oil out of venezuela. this deal with venezuelan dictator nicolas maduro, but the biden administration saying this is not because we need to bring energy prices down, they're saying it's a reward for the dictator for making a few steps towards democracy. they say this is a limited license. as we have said in the past, this is about the regime taking the steps needed to restore the

restoration of democracy. rachel: you talked to stephen moore earlier, will, and he nearly pell off his chair because -- fell off his chair because he can't believe why we're allowing chevron to drill in venezuela and not our own country. anyway, here's a statement from the treasury department. this action reflects longstanding u.s. policy to provide targeted sanction relief based on concrete steps that alleviate the suffering of the venezuelan people and support the restoration of democracy. so here's the biden administration saying, no, no, no, we're doing this for the good of the venezuelans. we're trying to relieve the suffering they're going through and trying to restore democracy. joey: you know, we have a democracy here. we have a lot of things that are basic freedom and not violating human rights. why can't we be rewarded with drilling here? i'm sorry, like, if that's the process, we can put in our application as the american people to the biden

administration and say, you know, can chevron trail here? because -- drill here? because we're doing a pretty good job with human rights. but vens -- venezuela, maduro, his opponents are jailed. they're considered ineligible for office. these are people that tried to run against him. they torture detainees and their family members, they have extra-judicial executions, just going around killing people. human rights defenders, independent media are harassed. there are arbitrary killings. in other words, whatever they've done to be a little bit closer to being pro-democracy, they're still doing those things, but go ahead and drill, chevron. and this has nothing to do with energy prices. i don't know if you guys know much about livestock, but if you with stand behind a bull, there's a certain smell, and that's where i am on this. rachel: they're also starving their people. here's what stephen moore had to

say about the the administration if easing the sanctions. >> i literally, will, almost fell if out of my chair reading this headline that says we're going to allow chevron to do drilling in venezuela. [laughter] this is the same administration, will, that won't allow us to do drilling here in the united states with. not in texas, not in oklahoma, not in alaska, not in west virginia, but we can pump oil from venezuela. it makes absolutely no sense. it's put america haas are. if you're worried about the environment, why would you want to get oil and gas from venezuela which has some of the dirtiest energy and not prosecute united states? will: yeah. you know, we added it up together, stephen moore and i, in this: what we managed to accomplish is a country that could be energy independent has rising oil and gas prices here at home. in response to that, the biden administration says it's not in response to that, it's because

maduro has decided to talk to some of his political opponents, but we're going to open up more oil and gas in venezuela. meanwhile, europe's mad because the price we're shipping oil and gas to them is too expensive to their liking. they now don't like the price of american oil and gas. it all could be softed by more production here at finish solved by more production here at home. don't forget, it could be cleaner and cheaper right here at home as well. rachel: and we wouldn't be committing these human rights abuses. will: right. rachel: look at what is happening. china owns the mines in africa where we get, you know, all this green energy from, by the way. this is why we're doing this. we're transitioning our country from fossil fuels to, you know, green energy technology. the inputs for that green energy technology come from cobalt among other things for the batteries, the lithium ion batteries, and those mines are

owned by china in the congo and other places in africa where they have 7-year-old little kids mining. i mean, child slave labor on top of the fact that, you know, we're getting our gas and oil now from venezuela, from iran where we have protesters who are asking us not to empower these regimes. every time there are people who are crying out for, you know, their human rights, it seems like the biden administration is never there to help them and is, in fact, helping their oppressors. joey: it becomes a point of moral superiority and convenience. it's an easy thing to use when it supports your argument, and it's an easy thing to ignore when it goes against what they consider to be a higher moral if argument. rachel: it's a scam. the whole green energy thing is a scam. will: meanwhile, here in new york city which has become a symbol for so many cities across the country, with district attorneys like alvin bragg funded by george soros which

makes him, therefore, not independent or unique. chances are if you live in an urban center across the united states of america, you have a district attorney who's also been funded by george soros and, therefore, living under similar policies, policies like this is the cover of new york post this morning, lack of conviction. failed and downgraded felony cases, nothing to bragg about. why is that? take a look at these that it's thetics. -- statistics. felony cases have resulted in convictions down 51%. no, it's 51% of the time he gets convictions compared to 68% in 2019. misdemeanors, 29% in 2019, 53%. and then the final stat on your screen is how often felonies are down graded to misdemeanors. that's a choice at the district attorney's discretion. 5 2% of the time under bragg,

previously 39%. it had never been above 40% before alvin brag was making the decisions in new york city. rachel: and other decisions being made here in new york city that show that the leaders of this city are more interested in the criminals than they are in the victims. here is a new york city bill that is preventing landlords from doing criminal background checks, because, you know, that would not be good. and, of course, here's mayor adams. he says no one should be denied housing because they were once engaged with the criminal justice system, plain and simple. a lot of people just agree with this. you know what? my grandmother wants to know if the person moving in next door to her has a felony criminal record or not. joey: if you own property, you have the right to decide who you engage into a contract with, and i don't understand how it would be constitutional to prevent you from knowing who that person is. what you don't have a right to do is have a criminal record and

have no consequences or repercussions for it. listen, i'm all for people rehabilitating their lives and finding, you know, there are people that have gone to prison, come out and changed the world. there are people who have committed crimes, come back and did something amazing. i don't know any of those that did it without consequence. usually it's the consequence that inspires them to change hair life, and this idea that you're going to somehow make people better people by removing consequence from their bad actions and hen who pays for that -- then who pays for that? landlords pay for that, innocent people on the street that get robbed and mugged and punched in the face and flown off subway -- thrown off subway tracks pay for that. i don't understand the idea of this. will: the spokesperson for mayor adams says no one should be denied housing. a new york city councilwoman says a bill which would prohibit landlords which would prevent people from doing background

checks, no problem, come live among us. it's not just in the interest of the landlord, it's also in the interest of the other tenants who live in the building to know whether or not you are renting it out to someone who has a history of violence. i mean, it is -- you have markedly made it less safe to live next to your neighbor you can't even mow what your neighbor -- know what your neighbor has been convicted of in the past. rachel: it's important to know that a lot of people look at this craziness that they see, and they're, like, what does this have to do with me, right? i don't live in new york city. new york's -- new yorkers votes for bragg and mayor adams, why does this matter to me? well, these d.a.s across the country are being put in by someone named george soros who is with funding these campaigns, and this is coming to a town near you. it is a new way of looking at justicings re-- justice, restorative justice, and it does affect people's quality of life.

you can go i don't live in new york city, but this may be coming to your town too. joey: well, the ironmy here for me, you know what a bondsman is. >>? if that person they bond goes on the run, then they have to pay other $45,000. pleasure if the city of new york or if the state of new york decides that bails are no longer necessary, they're essentially being the bondsman for that criminal, right? where i'm going here is there should be civil cases coming back against them. listen, you vouched for this person, then they came and robbed me, mugged me, murdered someone in my family, now you're the one that has to pay the piper because you're the one who said, city of new york, alvin brark whoever it may be -- rachel: can a victim do that? do what he says? sue al visible -- you know, if alvin bragg lets the criminal out of lowers his sentence or

whatever happens and then they go out and commit another crime, can you sue the can d.a.? if. will: will no. you have governmental immunity. bureaucrats have immunity from the decisions they make. the only accountability you have is your vote, so remember that. look, we did a story a moment ago about venezuela, you know? we've talked a lot about california. the biggest indictment on any of these places and the policies they have implemented is people voting with their feet. people are fleeing venezuela, and this is a place we've just given a license to pump oil out of. people flee california not for the same reason, but the same choice is being made to vote with your feet. people are voting with their feet to get out of new york city because of the lifestyle created by these types of policies. just to your point, be knowledgeable about where you do move because there's a good chance no matter where you live in the country, there's a district attorney who shares that ideology.

rachel: by the way, speaking of the refugee, the refugees leaving venezuela, that is greatest movement of referee -- refugees in the world. i mean, by a million. and i think it's 7 million who have left venezuela. so this is a massive movement, and you're right, they are moving with their feet. they're coming here, and we're implementing a lot of the policies that they left behind. joey: what's sad about here in california and new york is when people vote with their feet, it leaves a lot of good people who can't afford to do it with no voice left. rachel: that's true. we're going to turn to a few of your headlines. the white sign language interpreter settles his lawsuit with the lion king on broadway after he claims he was fired because of the color of his skin. he joined us earlier this month to explain. >> you insert a different color, if you insert a different race, it is wrong. you are not allowed to fire

somebody because of that reason. they could have been -- there could have been 12 other reasons perhaps they could have said. rachel: he alleged that he was fired in an e-mail, yet: it's no longer appropriate to have white interpreters represent black characters for asl broadway shows. sounds like racism to me. former vice president mike pence will be returning to new hampshire as he builds toward a likely 2024 run for president. fox news learning exclusively this morning that pence will stop in the granite state to host two book signings for his autobiography. pence has made multiple stops in the other statements -- first statements on the calendar including iowa, south carolina and nevada. he definitely thinks he has a shot, that says. hmm. it's time to break out the christmas decorations which means americans have to make a difficult choice. a real tree or a fake tree?

[laughter] we've been making that decision here. fox news digital hit the streets of austin, texas, to see what people hi there. think there the. >> definitely a real christmas tree. huge tradition in my family that every year we go out and pick out real christmas trees. >> i prefer fake christmas trees because they're, like, ten times easier to set up and get, and you can are reuse them. rachel: that must be a friend of will's. [laughter] head to our instagram page at "fox & friends" to let us know, and those are your headlines. joey: we were talking about that, and real christmas trees are a huge fire hazard. my brother's been a fireman for almost 30 years. they go round up real christmas trees after the season, and that's what hay use to start house fires in training. so i do a real tree. just keep it watered. you can look up how to keep it from getting dried out. if you do do a real christmas tree, be smart about it, because

they are a fire hazard. rachel: i grew up with fake christmas trees because i was a military brat, and my first real christmas tree was the first year i met sean. of course, i married a lumberjack, and there was no choice in the north woods of wisconsin, and i am now completely on the side of real christmas trees. will: flocking? [laughter] isn't that what you call it? when they're white? they put that white stuff on. joey: it's called flocked? i would think it's called -- will: am i right? rachel: you're probably right. you're usually right, will. joey: real christmas trees bring in uninvited guests like bugs -- can. rachel: that's a story in the all-american christmas -- that happened to jessie watt watters' family. will: like in christmas vacation? rachel: that happened to jessie watters.

will: so hopefully you've had a better thanksgiving holiday than this one. while we were celebrating last week, dr. anthony fauci was deposed in a lawsuit over covid mandates. missouri's attorney genre vealing this great fauci flip-flop during a 7-hour deposition, finding fauci told a friend that masks are ineffective back in february

2020. here to react is dr. marty makary. on this flip-flop, dr. makary, i'm trying to remember my timeline. fauci was also saying publicly at one point that masks didn't work, and end then he changed his tune, i guess both privately and publicly? >> that's right. and for months he believed in the surface transmission model; that is, if you washed your hands like crazy, you'd have protection when you went to see grandmother. he's in charge of doing the definnive signs. concern science. he has $45 billion at the nih and $5 billion at his agency. do the study in 2024 hours to tell the people -- 24 hours to tell people it is spread if by airborne transmission. why -- that is his ultimate failure. and instead of with maxes and natural immunity, paxlovid in vaccinated people and even the bivalent vaccine, we don't have

a clinical trial. will: you know, doctor, i think i was guest hosting for jessie watt alternate sometime in, let's call it '21, and i did five truths about covid. every single one were called a conspiracy yet have been borne out to be true. fauci, the allegation is fauci and the government, the cdc, nih played such an an active role in manipulating what we knew to be true. >> well, look, he could have commissioned the definitive of studies rapidly to answer all these big questions. they could have been answered with clinical trials, but instead he chose to rule by opinion and squash differing opinions, and they did that through big tech. you know, we used to be able to use google in our research team to study scientific questions, but we can't anymore because it's to curated. it's giving such an establishment point of view, and any good research is buried so low on vaccine complications or

natural immunity or you name it. will: yeah. >> it is so -- they're colluding. and they clearly did that with the lab leak. that's now public information, that's not a is secret. will: so is it that those studies are buried? so here's a big, big question for the united states of america, for everyone watching. what are the long-term effects of the covid vaccine? have we not done those studies? are they impossible to access? are they simply suppressed by big technology? because right now it appears there's a total lack of curiosity in the medical establishment of the cup. >> well, if you look on social media, you're basically given an establishment answer and sort of given the message don't ask these questions. pfizer and moderna, by the way, are in violation of their fda agreement to do postmarketting studies, postapproval studies. they're delinquent in turning those in. and there's this sort of frowning in academic why are you looking at vaccine complications? that could cause someone to choose not to get vaccinated.

that that's not the ultimate test of science. what's the truthsome so we got a study a couple weeks ago which found that heart injury which is sub-clinical, you don't have symptoms, or but the heart is injured in a mild way causing a molecule to leak into your blood system, and that was as high as in 3.5% of people after the second dose of the vaccine. you can't even find that study online. will: wow. you just -- by the way, that is really good information for everybody listening that you're not going to find many places. how do you explain, curiosity from a conversation we had yesterday, another truth is that all cause mortality in the united states is up, and by some estimates 15-20% year-over-year. and it's an aberration. it's not normally like this. how is that explained? >> well, there's going to be a lot of ideas to try to unpack

this. some ideas have been a combination of substance abuse, economic despair and loinliness, social isolation -- loneliness. it can the even hasten death in people who are otherwise comorbid. and there may be something to the cardiac deaths. remember, florida did one of the few studies looking at your chances of dying sudden death from a heart attack after the vaccine, and the risk was 81% higher in the first month. telling us there may be some is deaths out there that were inappropriately ascribed because you can't put that, you can't put vaccine-related death on the death certificates, so we're not tracking this. will: what needed scientific curiosity we're hearing right now and what needed information you're going to get so few places. dr. makary,st always great to talk to you. not a unique perspective but how about a unique approach? at least used to be described as scientific.

thank you, dr. makary. >> thank, will. will: two weeks and no answers. up next, a former fbi investigator breaks down the idaho murder mystery. why police is have no suspects as we learn there was a dog at the scene of the crime. >> is the dog any part of the investigation at this point right now? >> i mean, i don't have the answer for you. i'm not sure.

my a1c stayed here, it needed to be here. ray's a1c is down with rybelsus®. i'm down with rybelsus®. my a1c is down with rybelsus®. in a clinical study, once-daily rybelsus® significantly lowered a1c better than a leading branded pill. in the same study, people taking rybelsus® lost more weight. rybelsus® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes. don't take rybelsus® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away

if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or an allergic reaction. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. gallbladder problems may occur. tell your provider about vision problems or changes. taking rybelsus® with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. need to get your a1c down? you may pay as little as $10 per prescription. >> do you have a person of interest? is is there a person of interest in this case right now? >> again, we want to provide as much information as possible, and i think we've been consistent and is have said we do not have a suspect or a person of interest at this time. we are building, again, as you mentioned before, building a profile, building a picture. we're trying to put all the pieces together. and when the time comes, we will

most definitely put that information out. joey: investigators remain tight-lipped as they're still on the hunt for a suspect. today marks two weeks as four university of idaho students were brutally stab ised to death inside their home. former fbi investigator bill daley joins us now. good morning, bill. >> good morning, joey. joey: there's been a lot of pressure on this idea of targeting, what that means and how they might know it. why do you think it is that they believe someone was targeted and why they're not telling us how they know that? >> well, first of all, you have to realize there is the killer's loose out there, so the more information they provide -- which, by the way, i think heavy handled it very well at point. in the meantime, you don't need to either get people's concerns further out there in the community or signal something to a killer. but i think, you know, some of the things surrounding, you know, this horrendous incident, the fact that there were two

people who were sleeping down stair ises who were unharmed, and it does seem to be something that someone would have either had to know the inside of home, know their routine, there are some things around this that don't ring true, at least in my mind, as to be some kind of random break-in in the middle of the night and just happened upon these individuals. if it was someone on a rampage, you would are thought they would have also gone downstairs and harmed the other people. there are a couple things that suggest there was something in these people's orbit where one of the victim's orbit that caused this incident to come about by this murderer. joey: i think a lot of us sit here, and it feels like we're looking at this going, man, they don't have much here. they're not naming a suspect, they're not sending us in a direction of having faith in this getting solved soon. you know, one thing i want to point out is they did come out and say, listen, these murders that happened in other states,

one of them specifically in oregon that was a stabbing, we don't believe there's a connection there. is the simple fact that they can rule that out, is that evidence that maybe they do have more than what we know? >> well, i think it's perhaps comforting, you know, to know that they've ruled it out, that there isn't someone loose in the northwest area who's committing these crimes. and i do think that there are some things here that by not hearing certain things from the police, i think they have a lot more than we're aware of. we know that they've actually had literally hundreds of interviews conducted and similarly hundreds of of pieces of forensic evidence collected. it is, joey, kind of like an onion here. they're peeling it back. it's t not one of these crimes that initially kind of reveals itself. in many cases, within a few days you'll find out there was someone closely associated with the victims who may be responsible, a family member, someone else. in this case it's looking further out and talking about the orbits, it's someone further

out perhaps mt.over bit who -- in the orbit who may be responsible for this. we were talking about forensic evidence, and people ask wouldn't they have fingerprints and dna? my point is that, you know, fingerprints or dna or only good if you have something to compare it to. our finger prints are on file, but you've never been finger printed or don't have your dna mt. database, it's good after the fact when you find the suspect, but not messily something that's an aha moment. joey: thank you for your expertise. i appreciate the fact that you posed the idea the fact we don't have those answers doesn't mean the police can doesn't have those answers. hopefully, we pray that the families get resolution, justice, and they find this killer soon. thank you so much for joining us. >> you're welcome. joey: all right. swatting away speculation, gavin newsom insists he's all in, but for biden's potential run, not his own in 2024.

the powerful wind damaging roofs, fling over an rv, even tearing up a local church. the storm left at least 10,000 without power. now that a low pressure system is moving toward boston, chicago and new york which could impact holiday travel. let's turn to chief meteorologist rick reichmuth for our fox weather forecast. rick: people generally think of spring as the kind of meat of severe weather season, tornado season. we get a secondary season, and that is kind of right now in the fall, and we're going to see more of that on tuesday across parts of the south. you're going to want to watch for this. take a look at the weather map, colder air in across parts of the west, a lot of snow this week across the mountain west, and that's great news. we have the drought that's been so ongoing, we're going to get a lot of moisture. and we're already off to a good season so far. no delays at this point across any of the airports in the east, that's great news. i i think we might see them

start to pile up, the rain across the southeast is going to weaken, but once we see this storm across parts of the ohio valley, we might see severe weather across coastal areas of the northeast. what we are watching though, tuesday, the next storm that's coming in, this is a big threat for severe weather including threat for some potentially large and significant tornadoes. so if you're in that area, certainly be prepared if for that right now. we don't like to see that this time of year. by the way, download the fox weather app, they will help you get home for the holidays if you're in the air or on the roads. all right, rachel, back to you inside. rachel: thank you, rick. well, california governor gavin newsom is swatting away speculations about a possible white house run claiming he's, quote, all in for biden and, quote, hopes he runs so he can enthusiastically support him. fox news contributor leo terrell is a former democrat in california. and he's here to react.

so welcome and happy thanksgiving. i hope you had a great time with your family, leo. >> i did, rachel. rachel: oh, i'm so glad. so this is interesting because gavin newsom from your home state of california says he's all in on biden, but i saw him waiting for biden to leave town so he could, like, catwalk with his shirt rolled up and his suit jacket over his shoulder and really trying to show that, you know, i think it was an audition. like, i look good, i could do this. >> rachel, you're 100% correct. look, gavin newsom wants to run for president. he doesn't want to be the ted the kennedy of the 21st century when ted kennedy challenged jimmy carter. he goes home at night and says, i hope joe doesn't run are. but he has to say what he said, he has to say he supports joe biden. if joe biden does not run, gavin newsom is going to run for

president. he's been challenging ron desantis to a debate. he's been trying to nationalize his profile. he really wants to bring the california disaster to the nation. guy wants to run for president and basically he has to wait, hoping, hoping that joe biden does not run. rachel: so i don't think that mentally joe biden is going to make it over the next two years. i think he's faltering and deteriorating before our eyes. so let's say gavin newsom does run, does that a california record that a you talk about, is that going to be, you know, an anchor around his neck or make democrats lover him and put him -- love him and put him to the top of the list of their primary candidate? >> let me tell you right now, the california nightmare that i lived in, the crime, the homelessness, the high gas prices, that doesn't play well in the midwest. it plays well on the east coast and the west coast. it doesn't play well in middle america. this plan has been rejected by most americans. it's too liberal, it's too

extreme, and it has destroyed the economy. and i'll tell you right now, gavin gnusome basically -- gavin newsom basically is the prodigy of nancy pelosi. he may be the darling of the extreme left, but america in genre jekylls the newsom policy. california, rachel, is a nightmare. rachel: no, i used to live there too. i saw it deteriorate before my eyes too, the state and joe biden. so let's quickly go to this, because a school district in sand yea get tried to mandate the masks, i can't believe it, and now an appeals count in california said you can't do that. your thoughts on that decision. >> bravo. bravo. i read the appeals court ruling, and it simply says this, rachel, that the power to man the vaccine is a -- mandate the vaccine is a state funk. and is here wr0u6 got got a school district trying to require 16-year-olds and older to get vaccinated. then they're going to punish other students who didn't take the vaccine by having them go
