take your pictures with your family you'll hear all the christmas music being played outside, too. >> steve: very festive. brian is off today and in his mris on the couch we have pete hegseth who must be exhausted because he's working now three days in a row. >> what's it like to work three days i don't really know but i'm finding out today. and i'm gloating in front of all of our staff that is jets fans and my minnesota vikings defeated them yesterday and justin jefferson hit the gritty a little bit, that's for you out there. you know what that is? that's the celebration dance. >> ainsley: are you allowed to nfl? >> you finally are now. started a whole fad. >> steve: first of all --. >> ainsley: i wasn't sure. >> steve: our producer says gavin please don't ever do that again. >> brian: that's a good gritty. >> ainsley: looks like the easter bunny hopping. >> steve: pete given the fact you have a just dissed pretty much everyone in the room, that might work on the weekend show, have you ever had a food tester before? >> i might need one after this.

the safety department claims the fbi was coming to warn him at least once a week about a possible hack and leak operation involving hunter. >> i mean, the idea here is to come clean on everything that does happen in the past in order to have public trust for the future. >> i think there will be more smoking guns. because the question is what happened after the election. that's probably the right thing for episode two is what happened after the election. >> it's been business as usual for hunter biden. he spent part of the weekend at camp david then celebrated kennedy center honorees including george clooney and u2 the night before this new york post cover hit newsstands. said lies twitter's based on fbi fib. >> now have become arms of the democratic party, arms of the biden administration but they also used the intel community as well to lie to the american public. >> and now this is relevant

because of the twitter aspect, right? whether or not twitter was right or had a reason to censor this new york times reporting about hunter biden's laptop. in 2020 i asked the president elect if he thought this was russian disinformation. he said it was. in 2021, i asked the then press secretary jen psaki if she thought this was russian disinformation and she said there was a lot of russian disinformation around the time of the election. so this is a story now that goes back about two full years and a new chapter has been opened up by even lon musk. back to you the. >> steve: it has indeed. peter in the past you have been pretty much the lone questioner about hunter biden things and the answer was always russian disinformation. i noticed in the last hour or two the new york times finally came to the party and posted a story about what mr. musk has revealed. do you think in the press room there will be more questions

about how much help did the biden administration -- did the biden campaign get from twitter and what did they know about what was going on at twitter during the campaign? >> i would expect that there would be more questions about that, and i bet that the answer is that they can't talk about campaign stuff because of the hatch act. so i don't know that we're going to learn a lot from here about behind the scenes biden campaign and twitter executive communications. that's probably all going to have to come out from elon musk. >> steve: but i don't know if the hatch act would pertain to an election in the past. >> i just am going with what we hear a lot when the topic of elections or campaigns comes up. >> steve: no, i know. >> so i would expect some of that. >> steve: all right. >> ainsley: thank you. >> steve: we'll be watching. >> as elon musk revealed over the weekend, speaking for two hours on twitter, twitter spaces taking questions from everybody, barry wise is another reporter

that now has access to he says all the twitter files everything from the fast he says eventually wants to make them all public. so if there's something out there to reinforce what he said, we should learn it soon. but elon musk said twitter was acting as an arm of the democratic national committee willing to do what they were asked to do in in-kind contribution so hopefully we get more. >> ainsley: if the dnc and fbi were able to meet with the social media companies before he took over twitter and tell them what might or might not be russian disinformation and they have so much power to decide what you and i read on twitter or on facebook, but yet where was there -- where were their questions when it was the dossier, which was proven to be -- >> exactly. >> ainsley: they were allowed to report that but not on this. there's so much out there so much much tabloid news we read and so much is not true so let us decide what's true or not. >> steve: there are a million

stories out there. clearly the republicans are going to do investigations and we'll find out -- because there is no smoking gun per se. you know, it's not like exhibit a, i've got the document that shows exactly what happened. there isn't any of that. however, they can bring the people in and ask them questions about why did you say this. and it looks like you were favoring one side over the other. shouldn't you have been favoring both? this is one of the things steve scalise was sitting on the couch about 15 minutes ago had to say. they're going to examine twitter, google facebook big time coming up starting january. >> but if they're private companies is there anything anyone can really do? facebook -- now that elon musk owns the company he's going to tell both sides hopefully but facebook, are they -- they're allowed to just say one side right? they're allowed to pick and choose what they put on there. >> steve: but what steve scalise said is the big social media companies get a carve out in the

law to protect them. section 230. what they're going to do is either fine tune it or do something where big tech is held accountable. here's steve. >> we told the big tech companies save your documents, there are things we've been asking them for months, for over years, that they haven't been sharing with us and elon musk hasn't been exposing what happened at twitter, they're not the only ones doing this but the hunter biden laptop story was probably the most high profile that we've seen of many other stories that were suppressed. the problem is when you look internally there were a lot of discussions. there were these ministers of truth and a lot of these tech agencies have them. kind of translation is somebody that wants to suppress conservative speech. so all under the name of truth they were shutting down stories that were true because it might have hurt joe biden's campaign. that's not what they're there for and surely not what they're telling people on the outside and it will get exposed. >> we'll see, the every could

have the new york post this morning, fed lies, biden bombshell, twitter's post ban based on fbi fib says a former executive. so the fbi had the laptop for almost a year, could have deciphered, you said did they did they not? i don't know. could decipher whether it was russian disinformation but were happy to tell twitter and others there's a dump and leak coming so if it does it's russian disinformation you should suppress it. so america's oldest newspaper who did their due diligence with information the fbi had, at the behest of the fbi and other agencies were shut down by twitter, voters don't get to read about it which means they're not factored in when they vote which is the definition of election interference. >> steve: right. and it will be interesting when congress speaks to that person who used to be the head of essentially the top censor at twitter, you know, what exactly all was said, because, according to miranda devine's article

today, the fbi was very vague about something. they said, you know, russia might try something but they did not really connect all of the dots. and as depicted in the columns this morning is the feds are broad and are vague, but obviously that guy at twitter used that as an excuse to censor that story that might have made a different. >> ainsley: all right we'll keep watching that story but this is a story that's fascinating to all of us we hope they catch the killer in idaho. the families of the slain idaho students are still trying to fill in the blanks and it's been three weeks since they were murdered. >> one victim's parents says he thinks the killer may have specifically targeted his daughter and her best friend based on crime scene evidence. >> steve: griff jenkins joins us right now with the very latest. and griff obviously the families know -- the families presumably know more than what we do but that may not be much.

>> not much at all. steve, pete and ainsley good morning and more than three weeks later still no arrests suspects or motive as the parents of one of the four murdered idaho students are growing impatient in laying out their own theories about what happened. the parents of kaylee goncalves say they believe their daughter or her friend were targeted based on where they believe the killer entered the home. >> they say the enter point was the slider or window, it was then middle floor. so, to me, he doesn't have to go upstairs. his entry and exit are available without having to go upstairs or downstairs. i'm using logic that he chose to go up there when he didn't have to. >> but steve as you note, there is little new public information with moscow police still trying to piece together the events leading up to the murders saying this. quote, we remain consistent in our belief that this was indeed a targeted attack but have not concluded in the target was the residents or its occupies. this comes as kaylee's father

reveals authorities are asking him to remain tight-lipped on which one of the victims was actually the target. >> your daughter and maddie had different means or manner of attack and that suggests one of them was targeted. can you share with us, do you know -- you can't share either way, which one was targeted? >> i can't. i asked for permission to do just that and they said no. >> all students on the idaho campus and surrounding areas remain on edge with a killer or killers on the loose as the parents of the slain students continue to seek answers. steve, pete, ainsley. >> steve: as we all do. thank you. >> ainsley: to ashley who has more headlines. >> we're going to start with this with the chicago crime crisis, 14 people are robbed at gunpoint and three battered with handguns within a two-hour stretch overnight. the shocking crimes come as mayor lori lightfoot is blamed for violence in her city because of soft on crime policies. 2-4 suspects are still on the

harry potter thing goes back to the heart of where i think the problem lies with these two emphasis on the word lies. they just made this up. there is a big picture in the first net flick trailer which shows apparently a mob of paparazzi going crazy in their intrusive way at meghan and harry wrecking their lives only they weren't there. in fact no members of the royal family were there. in fact harry hadn't met meghan it was four years before they even set eyes on each other. another blatant untruth. you may remember in the oprah winfrey wine-a-thon about 17 different things came out of their mouths were lovin' proven to be untrue. and now with the netflix documentary it will be as true as the crown and i don't say that as a compliment. >> ainsley: do you think this is netflix's fault? do you think they had anything to do with it or did they have any decision making? because you and i both in this industry, we know someone else is editing the piece, you sit in front of the camera you're interviewed and someone else

edits it. did they even have paparazzi like that, that many. >> you know what really sickens me in this new trailer that dropped now they use imagery of princess diana of what she had to go through with paparazzi. let me tell you i knew diana well spoke with her regularly had lunch with her. she had ten times the paparazzi attention than meghan markle ever had. her attempt to put herself on the same pedestal as the most famous and feud royal in history is frankly disgraceful. but it's what they do isn't it? they use everything they can to cynically manipulate a narrative that they are these two down rodding oh pressed people utter victims which what they did is quit royal duty quit britain moved to california live in a mansion and spend their entire time trashing the royal family and monarchy which they use to exploit for hundreds of millions

of dollars. it is sick making and the anger in britain right now building about this netflix is growing, about 98% of the public want king charles to strip them of all remaining titles. >> ainsley: they haven't announced a date yet right? >> i think the netflix drop, i think the first three episodes next thursday, and the second three the following thursday. but there's also of course harry's book, spam or as i renamed it tamy which is going to be another series of attacks on his own family, including his father, who's not even been coronated yet as king. so it's really quite extraordinary. the idea that they're victims when all they're doing is making so much money from abusing and making so much money of their families is reprehensible. >> ainsley: how happy were you when england advanced to the world cup quarter finals? >> well i see kilmeade's done a sicky today to avoid talking to

here's his take on walker's chances on election day. watch. >> part of the key has been getting across to republicans that the difference in the senate between a 50/50 power share if walker wins and a 51/49 democratic majority if warnock wins that difference is a lot. traditionally republicans don't vote until election day but i think they're learning the lesson to get out and vote earlier. there have been long lines in both republican areas and democratic areas. i suspect if the election ended today warnock is slightly ahead but i think there's a very real chance that tomorrow there will be a big surge and i think governor kemp will be a big part of that surge. >> steve: the experts say the higher the turnout the better for walker. >> ainsley: yeah you saw walker with senators kennedy and tim scott, stevie wonder was there for a virtual -- or appeared in a virtual fundraiser for warnock and barack obama was there, too. >> pete: yeah, we'll see if republicans have learned how to play catch up on early voting,

banking votes i think is -- i don't like it at all. a lot of people want it to just be election day. >> steve: it works. >> pete: i agree with that but if it's legal and it's the process and the democrats have mastered it through a machine republicans better learn how to legally harvest ballots. because that's a vote that's automatically in as opposed to counting on a voter to show up at the polls wait in line stay there and vote on election day, there's always risk there. >> steve: it's easier ultimately or you can vote from home. >> pete: i know, but. >> steve: i'm telling you, it's legal. do it. >> pete: it's true. coming up, blackout. 40,000 in north carolina left powerless as two substations are taken out by gunfire. >> steve: what? >> pete: the investigation into the attack. >> ainsley: plus return of the masks. los angeles county considers bringing back the indoor mandate but is it following the science? we're going to ask dr. segal next. ♪

don't have the right mask, wearing the same dirty mask from days before. it's virtue signaling it is not public health so it's just somebody trying to get a mask of obedience in place to show they're doing something so they can potentially get reelected in a blue county. that's all it is. it's absolutely not public health. >> pete: wow. but the idea that we would still this far yet again do that is mind boggling. >> yes. >> pete: yet again it is los angeles and science has been politicized this entire time. i've got to get -- speaking of science and politics, the defense secretary, lloyd austin was asked this weekend about a vaccine mandate. here's what he said saturday, the head of department of defense. this mandate has kent people healthy 98% of the force is vaccinated. the health of the force is really important to us. and so i'll continue to support trips being healthy and the vaccination is important. he's saying he wants to keep the vax mandate even though they can't recruit the force they need, and they've kicked out some of our best. so no rethinking at the dod at

this point. >> look, pete, this is very dear to your heart and you know there's back door dealings going on with kevin mccarthy and the secretary of defense with this disgraceful idea of keeping this mandate in place when over 8,000 of our military have been kicked out as a result of this. not to mention how many people were afraid to join as a result of this thinking they'd be kicked out. but the vaccine itself, you're talking about a vaccine that's over two years old now. you know what the science shows? it shows if you have a vaccine over two years ago, the chances are it's doing almost nothing. so why can somebody show that card and get into the military and somebody else without that card who i might say you had covid a few times you're protected, i'm not worried about you you're young and healthy how come they get kicked out or can't go in. that kind of inconsistency or hypocrisy is at the heart of this problem. they're dealing with a vaccine that still has some value, but not for a mandate. it should not be mandated and mandating it is absolutely out
