>> ainsley: i must have. the song was starting when you left and when i walked in. >> brian: shirt halfway buttoned up. >> ainsley: i saw steve in a distance. >> steve: only club i have been in is price club. >> brian: we took a shot at kunkel town where some areas got a huge batch of snow and some nothing. i don't know how that happens. some earth being round. >> steve: more to do with the proximity to the sun and the seasons and stuff like that. >> ainsley: i was thinking we haven't gotten snow this year in new york city. >> steve: it's been great. >> ainsley: no it hasn't. we need a little bit of white. >> steve: tonight a little bit of snow perhaps on the agenda. good morning drunk keltown, ku. that one closed the new one open. i was there, a lot of mirror balls. and a lot of.

>> ainsley: was geraldo there? i have heard lots of his club stories. >> steve: you were hallucinating. >> brian: yes. >> ainsley: prince harry. therapy? >> brian: hince harry doing shots for a guy who says he doesn't drink anymore kind of odd. >> steve: even odder for steven coal a bear to offer him a drink. >> brian: to an empty studio. >> ainsley: was it an empty studio in the audience the audience that showed that up night when it aired they were upset we wanted prince harry. you heard people in the audience. >> steve: the people the night before got see him. >> brian: that wasn't a fake audience? >> steve: no. >> brian: i thought am i watches an old show. in the show i was watching last night they talked about a number of classified documents being found in an office of joe biden. i realize we don't run repeats on fox news. >> ainsley: because they found a second batch. >> steve: we don't know if if it

was an office. four days ago revealed think tank hilarious who knew joe biden had a think tank. penn biden center in the shadow of the u.s. capitol 10 tippy top secret documents found. fast forward to yesterday, after the press briefing, it was revealed that apparently a second batch of documents has been found simply at a different place. the white house is so vague about where it was and what it was and when they found it. all we know is that the -- they have been looking for documents since november. and now we know that they have found at least two batches in two different places. that's all we know. >> ainsley: but what is interesting, the double standard here, when trump was found with classified materials, biden was interviewed on "60 minutes" and he said this is so irsponsors cybil. >> steve: yeah. >> ainsley: so, yesterday, peter doocy was at the white house and

asked them this must have been irresponsible, too. listen. >> how could anyone be that irresponsible? isn't that what this president says about mishandling classified documents? >> the president spoke to this personally. he spoke to this personally. he -- again, he believes that classified documents and information should be taken seriously. he takes them seriously. and he was surprised to learn by. >> justice department -- >> -- well, let me explain to you the process. here's what happened when his lawyers found out that the documents were there. they immediately turned them over to the archives. >> but they were there in the first place. they did the right thing. >> i'm not going to go into specifics, but what i am reiterating to you is what you heard from the president yourself, peter. which is how he saw the process and how he respects and truly respects and takes this very seriously. >> brian: what i think is also

interesting coming off that briefing is not only was peter asking direct questions but so was ed o'keefe and others i didn't recognize. wanted to know what is going on with the documents. by the way, if you are press secretary. i know some days easier than others. you have no right to go out there and not be briefed on things. what you did, i never forget tony snow said i told president bush to not do this unless can i be in every meeting directly that you have. i need to see it myself it. doesn't mean i'm going to repeat everything i see. i need to understand the context in things happen and understand the context whether they come. other press secretaries it is your key to not only pick up the phone and news and departments, talk to them directly. her style is getting press releases or statements from departments on her side not being dealt into anything only like i think it reminds me of scott mcclellan on the outside and basically blindsided by every question that came to

them. >> steve: this is a legal matter. and so, all that has been said by the administration is what joe biden read from the podium there in mexico city a couple of nights ago. that is all the information we have because, ultimately and he said and the lawyers didn't tell me what it's all about so i don't know. he needs didn't. denialability. he does not want to make a false statement if it becomes a value matter. why is this second location so embarrassing or fraught with peril, legal peril? >> ainsley: do you think it's at his house and people are going to wonder why it wasn't raided? >> steve: ainsley, i think you have just hit the nail on the head. if the papers were not at the penn biden center, and they were not at the white house, obviously, because that all stuff is protected now it would have been one of his two houses that would not necessarily have been under lock and key. at the house, who would have access to it?

well, jill biden? hunter biden. we don't know who would have had. >> brian: who wouldn't? >> ainsley: who had access to that first batch the chinese government was paying the university of pennsylvania for him to have this named office, this think tank did they have access to that office. >> steve: they gave money to the university of pennsylvania. to the biden school 30 million. so, here's the thing. take a step back further. what would make a grouch lawyers to go into a locked closet and say it's time to get out. is the lease up? did the university of pennsylvania decide to pull the plug on the biden center? why? it's more valuable than ever. former vice president became president. are you pulling the plug on this? i need it back. >> ainsley: the lease actually might be up. they started leasing the suite of offices in that building in february of 2018. so here we are approaching february of 2023. >> brian: why would you pull the lease university of pennsylvania with the president across the street when three very important people came from there. michael carpenter the former managing director of the penn biden center named. u.s. ambassador to the

cooperation europe. antony blinken we know about him. briefly served as director of the think tank and juan sebastian gonzalez senior fellow two years assistant to the president. this seems to be a launching pad for white house staffers. >> ainsley: lots of questions did. china have access to that office where the first batch was found? why aren't they telling us where the second location is and who leaked this? is it someone inside that doesn't want him to run for president? why did it take six years? all the questions i have written down. why did it take six years to realize he had classified documents he took those allegedly after he left when he was no longer the vice president. why are we just learning about this? they found out about this on november 2nd right before the midterms. this is such a double standard. >> brian: will ed o'keefe asked that why did you find out november 2nd and we didn't find out before the election? cbs broke the first story and nbc broke this one. >> steve: right. we're going to run that soundbite with ed o'keefe coming up at the top of the 7:00 hour.

what's cure cannous about all of that why would they start looking in november for stuff. i wouldn't be surprised if after the mar-a-lago search warrant was executed, if people in the white house were sitting around what trump did was terrible. hey, mr. president, you don't have any stuff in any of your locations, do you? and he probably goes, i don't know. i don't think so. go ahead and look. and they lookedment and they have been looking since november. don't be surprised. also, keep in mind. joe biden was a senator from delaware for 150 years. also the chairman of the foreign relations committee at the senate. he would have had access to top secret stuff then as well. where are all those papers? they are at the university of delaware library. there is absolutely no security there. is there any secret stuff there? we don't know. there are so many things that need to be investigated and that's why josh hawley from the great state of missouri is suggesting that a.g. garland, who now apparently the report for the first batch is on the

attorney general's desk. he needs to appoint a special counsel, according to the senator. >> it can't be that we have two tiers of justice in this country. can't be that there is one rule for republicans and a different rule for democrats. merrick garland said oh, we have to have a special prosecutor for trump. that means we have got to have one nor biden. it's the same thing. arguably, it's worse for biden because, as you say, he could declassify. whatever else we know is true we know he didn't have the power on his owns a vp to declassify these documents. listen, the democrats say they are all for equity. well, what's equitable here is that there be a special counsel. >> brian: obviously. this is getting really difficult for merrick garland. the fact is he launched the special investigation into trump two weeks after he knew about these so special documents that were found at the biden center. so he doesn't seem to care. i will tell you right now, this second hit of documents really pushed democrats back. i watched senator warner yesterday with bret baier,

democrat. other democrats who have intelligence background, they're not as vociferous in dissemating between the two presidents. i also want to know what president obama has, president bush might have some. go through the carter library and clinton library. >> this is a problem with archives. >> ainsley: hillary has some. >> brian: left of her blackberry that she smashed and the bleach bit that wiped out the 30,000 emails. jim jordan by the way is coming up at 7:30. i am sure he is going to have his sleeves rolled up and tie loosened and ready to talk to us. >> steve: the thing about former presidents when they have those libraries they are run by the national archives. so, when you leave your presidency, they are supposed to be in the custody of the national archives. it would be okay to have secret stuff there as long as it was declassified. >> brian: we know sock drawer. >> steve: sandy berg early sock drawer. >> ainsley: document damage assessment by the intel community, briefing and trump documents. all right, coming up. going to say anything?

>> the man accused of murdering four university of idaho students hauled back to court later today. >> we will later today be learning whether bryan kohberger will waive his right to a speedy trial. >> brian: ashley strohmier joins us with more on this story. ashley. >> 28-year-old murder suspect will appear in front of a judge at 8:00 a.m. pacific time. kohberger will have a chance to waive his right to a speedy trial which would give him more time to enter a plea for the charges against him. he is accused of stabbing xana kaylee madison in off campus home in the early morning hours of november 13th. a new report details what kohberger was allegedly up to after the murders. a receptionist at a doctor's office who wants to remain anonymous says kohberger came in for a routine checkup shortly after the killings. she says the quadruple murder suspect was chatty, even saying her boss described him as

charming. meanwhile, one of the victims, ethan chapin was a triplet and both his siblings attend the university of idaho. his mom shearing heart felt post as she sends her two kids back to school without their brother. mazday and hunter are rock stars. we successfully dropped them back off at the university of idaho. their job now is just to be kids. we spend no time being angry. that would be energy not well spent. ethan is who he was because of our family. he touched lives. we had no idea existed. if kohberger does not waive his right to a speedy trial at told's hearing he will return for a former preliminary hearing on or before january 19th. back to you guys. >> steve: terrible story, more details a little later on. thank you very much, ashley. all right. let's talk a little bit -- let's move from idaho to the beautiful state of florida. it mount dora, florida is rated

number one small town in florida. number 4 all in town of us of . >> ainsley: close to what? >> steve: not far from orlando, i believe. so, it's one of those people go to retire. waterman village is a senior living complex that is where 83-year-old darryl and his wife 80-year-old sharon getman decided they would live for the next period of time. there they are right there. of course, that picture was taken before new year's eve when they were both murdered senselessly by a total stranger. >> ainsley: darryl 83, sharon 80. the kids say they were wonderful couple, happy, and they were ready to retire. the husband was found with a butcher knife in his stomach. the wife was found. she was found with head trauma and a large amount of blood coming from her abdomen. there were defensive wounds on the husband.

but what happened, police believe that the suspect walked in, came into the neighborhood. we'll go through the timeline of events that she came into the village at 10:00 that night -- no, that morning, excuse me, december 30th. and then at 3:00 p.m., security escorts her off the property. at 4:15, surveillance shows that the woman returned to the gated community and then almost at 11:00 she knocks on the door of an apartment to someone living there, not necessarily this couple, asking if she can go shower in their apartment. then at the same time, the tenant activates an emergency alarm system in the apartment and 9 woman runs away at 2:00 in the morning the car belonging to the getmans, the couple we showed you a picture of seen leaving the property, a kia. next day 4:00 p.m. police discover the getmans dead inside heir home. >> sharon was dead right in the foyer area towels were there to mop up the blood.

>> ainsley: someone tried to clean it up. >> brian: then you see the husband come in and butcher knife is missing from their knife collection was found used for him. so he has defensive wounds because he looks like he was fighting for his wife or defending his wife and he dies, this woman, vicki williams is the suspect about 50-something years old and this mugshot is from lake county sheriff's office that you see right there. >> steve: she has a strings of crimes that were alleged that she has caused over the last year so. here is the mayor of that town talking about the double senseless murder that happened on new year's eve. >> it really has shaken our entire city. we have had several meetings with the residents of waterman village because of their direct concerns this happened right in their community. >> steve: right. so, because the son of this

couple the getmans said his mother's purse and car were missing. they ran the plates, ran license plate readers, they found the car in savannah, georgia. the suspect, vicki williams was sitting in the car in amtrak parking lot. she was taken into custody. she has been charged with two counts of murder and grand theft auto. the purse, the car were found. the cell phone. there was blood in the car. she told the cops, listen, i'm homeless. and i'm living in this car. this car was given to me by my friend fuller blue to sleep in. and i have not been to florida in two years. however, images were out. her -- reportedly her parents identified her in ohio as being somebody seen around that house and also the cops found a palm print on a drish inside the house. and the motive at this point and this is a shocking part, random. those people were just in an apartment where they opened the door and now they're dead.

hotel once known as the milford plaza and the lullly by of broadway one time luxury location being trashed after the city began housing migrants in the rooms there he also shared videos of the massive amount of food the hotel throws away every day because migrants won't eat it. all of this on the taxpayer's dime. republican new york city council minority leader joe borelli joins us now. joe, good morning to you. >> good morning, steve. >> steve: okay. so this guy told the "new york post" the headline is there is a ton of food. a ton of food gets tossed daily by the hotel because migrants won't eat it. there are, in new york city, 38,000 migrants, 26,000 of them are in hotels and they are spending close to 500 bucks per room at this particular hotel to house them and they are feeding them things that the people don't want. they want beans and rice and instead giving them turkey sandwiches. what genius is in charge of

figuring out what people want to eat? >> well, i can tell you it's not grandma borelli. i can steal hear my grandmother's voice in my ear watching those videos telling me it's a sin to waste food. here it's perhaps not sinfulness but also bad policy. we are stockpiling people essentially at hotels who have no other purpose other than to wait for immigration authorities to decide what to do. and all of this is happening while the taxpayers of the city of new york are forced to basically buy and stockpile rooms without any idea of how many people are coming, how long they're going to be. how long we need to feed them. how long we need to provide them shelter. and, in reality, this is just more evidence that, perhaps, immigration, even with respect to asylum seekers is better done when it's regulated and certain number of people are let in at a time and you happen to know who they are, where they are going and what their purpose is that's just not happening here in new york or anywhere from the border on up. >> steve: joe, i think we had

the same grandma because grandma doocy told me the same thing about wasting food was a sin. that's why it's so heart breaking less than 10 blocks from where i'm sitting right now they are throwing out a ton of food every day. one of the people said somebody from the city should have said let's order less food so we throw less food out. but nobody cares because there's no accountability. obviously, the administration has said to new york, hey, just spin spendwhatever it takes we e you money at the end don't worry about it. taxpayers ultimately is where the money comes from? >> yeah. we are still waiting for that big joe biden check by the way to pay some of these bills. and i do have to commend mayor adams and some democratic lawmakers in this city for actually putting pressure on the biden administration. but it can't be just them. when you see these videos and when you see -- when you hear these stories about how much waste and abuse there is. this should cause alarm bells to ring in washington. that this is a serious crisis.

we all saw the president go down to the border for photo op. the thing most people wanted to hear that we're going to restore some sense of order to the border just did not happen. right now, new york city taxpayers are on the hook. our price tag is a billion dollars this fiscal year? that estimate is coming true. it's happening. and i actually suspect that some woke progressive lawmakers are going to have some tough choices to make this budget. >> steve: and final question and point joe is the fact in new york city there is a terrible homeless crisis, you know that can you imagine the homeless people looking in and seeing okay, these people come into the country illegally. they get a $500 night hotel room and all the food they can eat and not even doing it. why isn't the administration helping me like that? >> yeah, it's fair. we have somewhere between 50 and 60,000 people in new york city homeless shelters. and i do believe we should focus a bit more on those people than the folks that are coming here without any control from the biden administration. >> steve: all right.

joe, thank you very much for joining us today. >> thank you. >> steve: we'll see if anything happens. i won't hold my breath. all right. carley joins us right now. >> carley: not holding my breath here. >> steve: with news from chicago. >> good morning to you. chicago mayor lori lightfoot has a new campaign ad out. boasting about her record on crime. >> you wouldn't know it by watching the news or listening to the haters. >> but on crime, mayor lightfoot has got a plan. >> she is putting more police on the streets and getting more guns off them. >> carley: let's take a look at the numbers though. mulder in the windy city soaring almost 40% under her watch. lightfoot is also being called out for asking chicago public school teachers to encourage students to help her in the re-election campaign. as the race heats up we're looking tone rich our office through what we call our externship program. lightfoot for chicago is seeking else are mays for any volunteer interested in campaign politics.

>> ainsley: when volunteer firefighter and army veteran colby mcfadden responded to the site of a house fire last week, it was the scorched stars and stripes, you can see it there, hanging off the downed

flag pole that caught his attention. when colby asked homeowner larry hixon if he could properly retire the flag and replace it, he learned that larry was a veteran himself and they join us now. good morning, gentlemen. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> ainsley: so, larry, i'll start with you, you and your wife went to the dentist's office and what happened next? >> well, i had just arrived at the dentist's office and just got checked in and my wife came in and said we have got to go. my daughter had called and said our house was on fire. we were about 30 minutes away. and so we headed back to taylor and there was my house in flames. >> ainsley: everything gone. can you see video right there. >> colby you are a firefighter. the flag means so much to you. what did you do with the flag to help with the clean up.

>> after the city got the fire knocked down, we were conducting overhaul and as soon as i come across the fence to the backyard it was actually one of the first things i saw the flag pole was just bent over and the flag was laying on the ground still fastened to the rope it was strung on. so we conducted overhaul operations and wanted to make sure i got permission from mr. larry if it was okay to take his flag. and that's when i found out he was a brother. >> ainsley: wow, larry, you served our country. tell us about that and tell us about what that meant to you when colby saved your flag or wanted to retire it properly? >> well, i really hadn't given a lot of thought to my flag right at the time, but i was standing at the back when the firefighters come out and colby came out holding my flag. and i was just kind of -- then it got my attention just the look on his face. and the emotion in his eyes and his voice when he asked me if i wanted to have him to retire that flag properly for me it was

like i just felt really a warm feeling and it was a connection i made immediately with colby and he's a lot younger veteran than i, but we had the connection and the emotions. i saw it and felt it. relove our flag. >> ainsley: colby, how do you retire a flag properly? >> >> separate the stripes or a lot of people fold them together and you place it in a -- into a fire. you light a fire. you respectfully burn it. a lot of people say the pledge of allegiance. the way we do with the american legion post here in terrell, we partner up with our boy scout troop and got veterans memorial. we have a pit where we will say the pledge of allegiance, render honors and burn all the flags that we collected over the years. retire. >> ainsley: larry, it's devastating to see the pictures

of what your house looks like now. you just went to a dentist appointment that could happen to anyone it. does give us a warm feeling to know that he was there and cared enough about your family and your supervisors to take care of the flag and to retire it properly. how are you doing now? what happens next for you and your wife? >> right now we are in a clean up mode. i have a lot of family and friends. we're just trying to go from there. we will see about trying to get things rebuilt and move on. that's all i know to do. my family is here to support me and help me out. so we're going to make it. we're going to get going. >> ainsley: okay. well, larry and colby god bless you both. thank you for your service. and larry we wish you and your family the best. i'm sorry you had to go through all of this. >> thank you. >> ainsley: thank you. more "fox & friends" coming up.
