just talking about. have a fantastic thursday. >> jonathan turley leads us off on the radio today. >> bill: good morning. classified documents. another batch of sensitive materials. a lot we don't know. does it merit a special counsel investigation? good morning, it's thursday. you made it so far. i'm bill hemmer. >> dana: i'm dana perino and this is "america's newsroom" and great to be here with you. press office in the white house had to be are you serious? here we go. aides of president biden came across another new batch of classified documents appear to have been stored improperly separate from the ten or so

files last november at the biden penn think-tank. we don't know where they were found. what they contain. >> bill: one thing is for sure it is not good for merrick garland. he has a special counsel investigation into president trump's handling of classified dock also. >> dana: will it force garland to open an investigation into biden? republicans say that's the only option. >> it can't be we have two tears of justice. we have to have a special prosecutor for trump according to garland. we need one for biden, the same thing. it is worse for biden as you say, he could declassify. whatever else we know is true he didn't have the power at vp to declassify the documents. democrats say they are all for equity. what's equitable here is that there be a special counsel. >> dana: karl rove has reaction. let's go to mark meredith at the white house.

>> the president will be talking in the next hour expected to give remarks on the economy. reporters will be in the room i would bet all the money i have they will shout questions about what many have been calling as a double standard when it comes to handling of classified information once an official leaves office. someone familiar with the matter is confirming to fox the nbc report a second class of documents have been found. we don't know when and where the documents were discovered. the white house already facing a barrage of questions and reporters are having a hard time getting any straight answers. listen to this exchange on wednesday. >> you are the one here to tell us about this and why we're asking you. let's just remember that. >> ed, we don't need to have this -- we work very well together. we don't need to have this kind of confrontation. ask your question and i will answer them the best that i can. >> part of the reason we're laying that out. you are laying out your part of

the job and we're laying out our part of the job. >> you don't need to be contentious with me here. >> republicans are demanding answers investigating whether or not there is political bias at the national archives for how it handles record keeping and they want to interview archive officials within a matter of days. >> there are tons of questions. maybe the most important is why did they wait to tell us? frankly, what's happened since november 2nd until january 10th, january 11th when we learned this information? there are tons of questions we have. the press was all over this when it was president trump. so again i think the double standard is obvious. >> so far congressional democrats are holding off calling for a special counsel to investigate similar to what happened to former president trump last year. the story gets bigger by the hour and engulfing the white house and justice department. see if the president has any reaction within the next hour.

>> dana: my gut instinct it is not yet over. thank you. >> bill: let's bring in karl rove, a man who has some questions in texas. hello to you. i see a white board off to your right. what are your questions that we need to focus on? >> first of all, let's be clear. merrick garland is in a tough place. there are big questions about what -- how this all came about? how did they get there? who took them there? did the vice president take them there? did his staffers who worked for him there, many of whom are now back in the administration, how did this get there? did he draw on these to write his memoir? he writes a memoir after leaving the white house talking about his experience particularly in foreign affairs. we understand a number of these had to do with ukraine where he was in charge of u.s. government efforts to discourage corruption in the ukraine. did he draw on these to write his memoir? did other people see those during that process?

is there a connection between the penn biden center and the $54 million that the university of pennsylvania receives from china during the period that he is vice president and during the period that the penn biden center is set up? who or what are the sources of the chinese dollars? university of pennsylvania has not been forthcoming about this. they said no funds were solicited on behalf of the penn biden center. the question was were chinese monies used to underwrite the penn biden center and pay the former vice president a million for him in the years while he contemplated running for president? finally, why won't the president look at the documents? he is the ultimate guy in charge of classification yet he says my lawyers tell me don't look at the documents. well, maybe you ought to look at the documents so that you can help understand what it is all about. look, the white house wants to stay away from this but they are not going to be able to stay away from it. they made the key mistake for

that president biden took a two by four of his taking documents to marra lag owe and said it was responsible and he didn't know how it could happen. >> dana: if he won't look at the documents and the press secretary won't answer any questions the press are frustrated and keep asking about it. your take also. bill and i find this astounding. bloomberg had the headline last night saying migration gets short shrift at the summit after border visit saying u.s. and mexican cabinet officials ran out of time before discussing migration in a formal meeting in mexico city on monday. that's according to people familiar with the matter. leaving a major issue between the countries largely unaddressed. how is that not the first item on the agenda? >> i'm gobsmacked. three strikes. strike one, he finally goes to

the border, el paso, but they clean everything up so that the press crew traveling with him doesn't see what the people of el paso have to suffer through every day and what the illegal migrants are having to suffer through living in tent cities on city streets. they clean it up. strike one. strike two. his administration led by the department of homeland security comes out with a series of non-answers. what the heck are they recommending? we allow certain people from certain countries to be processed quicker. what is the thing saying we'll secure the border. strike three. he doesn't walk into the meeting and we need to discuss things but i need to start with the big problem affecting us all, our southern border and your southern border, mr. president of mexico. he doesn't bring it up? for god sake this shows his visit to el paso was for p.r. purposes only and he has no understanding of what is going

on on the southern border and the misery affected on our communities and illegal migrants coming across the border. >> bill: you may be right and maybe one more, karl. they are accepting of this border situation. they are accepting of it. >> they don't care . they do not understand and living in lala land and the president of the united states won't understand what effect it is having on our border and the states along the mexican border. >> bill: maybe we can get in a question today for the white house. nice to see you. >> dana: it is stunning. >> bill: remember what mike pence was here and why has the border been managed the way it been? it's part of the open border society. what do they want? we didn't get a full answer. we can see it now. plain as day. bill melugin was year yesterday up yards of 170 different nationalities crossing the

border. where in the world does that happen? only here. >> dana: right here. they ignored it. it was a stung -- stunning headline. really pitiful. airlines are getting up and running after the outage at the faa. the mess is just the latest headache for transportation secretary pete buttigieg ranging from a supply chain crisis hitting american consumers to nationwide rail strikes and disruptions of southwest airlines over the holidays. critics calling him out. >> buttigieg has preside over a supply chain crisis. rising gas prices. today the first national ground hold of flights since 9/11. >> i like the secretary but less than 30 days ago his department

told the states that they ought to make building new roads the lowest possible priority because of climate change. >> we are talking about somebody more interested in trans phobia than transportation. >> dana: how do things look today, grady? >> the situation here at the airport now is a lot better than it was at this time yesterday when that nationwide ground stop had just been lifted. but the airlines are still playing catch-up today. in fact, right now there are nearly 700 flights across the country that are delayed. pales in comparison to yesterday. by late last night more than 10,000 delays had piled up across the country. more than 1300 flights were canceled. the faa says that flight system went down as a result of a damaged database file and says there is no evidence of a cyberattack. though curiously canada's

version of the same system went down a couple of hours after ours did. >> how confident are you flying these days? >> not that confident. you would think the airlines would have state-of-the-art and double redundancy so these kind of events don't happen. >> not terribly confident. >> to make any family plans or vacations i'm verynerous because it is money out of our pocket. will we go once i book the flight? it's a little nerve racking. >> transportation secretary pete buttigieg is facing growing criticism this morning for how he has dealt with a slough of aviation-related problems. nancy mace, a member of the house transportation committee filed a bill that would require him to fly commercial until he fixes those problems. >> he ought to live by the same rules every american does so he can feel the pain and pressure they do. they shouldn't have to worry

about flying on a random wednesday morning and fear thousands of flights will be canceled. >> lawmakers as well as the u.s. travel association say that yesterday's failures, dana, highlight the old, out dated tech our air travel industry uses in this country. >> dana: grady trimble. hope things are smoother today. thanks. >> bill: rising prices at the store forcing some americans to forego a basic necessity, eggs. prices so high they are considered a luxury item. >> dana: my mom texted me about that last night. the new york city nursing strike is coming to a close. details of the agreement that is bringing major relief finally to hospitals. >> bill: the morning the suspect in idaho makes a second court appearance as we learn about a chilling conversation he allegedly had with a neighbor of his only days after the killings. >> did he plan this whole thing out as meticulously as i think

he did? if he did, there will be computer searches, handwritten notes, there could be a treasure trove of evidence in that apartment. so it's decided, we'll park even deeper into parking spaces so people think they're open. surprise.

>> dana: the strikes is over. more than 7,000 nurses returned to work to two of new york's biggest hospitals. the hospitals promised a new wave of hiring for emergency room. thank you for your unwavering dedication to world class care. that's behind us. >> a carton of eggs is labeled a luxury item by some shoppers, cost 60% more than a year ago.

lydia hu is at fox business at a farm in howe, new jersey. what are you hearing? >> good morning, bill. these eggs that are getting packaged up behind me are worth a lot more than they were a year ago. inflation data that came out today egg prices for the month of december up 60% than they were just a year ago. they were up more than 11% over november. the average cost for a carton of eggs hitting 3.59 across the country. more than the price of a gallon of gas and some regions higher. 4.59 in new york. higher costs of labor and wages are driving factors here. experts say the main reason for expensive eggs is the avian bird flu impacted every state.

wiped out more than 44 million egg-laying hens, some retailers with reduced supply are reportedly limiting purchases of eggs in some areas. limiting customers to two cartons per purchase. important to keep in mind today's inflation data reflects december's prices. a time period when demand for eggs is usually high because of the holidays. but even as we look to the future to see where prices are going, it depends on whether or not the avian flu can be contained. in the short term expect prices to remain high. we can expect to continue to shell out a lot more for this valuable product. >> bill: looks like they are printing those things behind you. howe, new jersey, thank you for that. >> dana: let's bring in maria bartiromo. you have been talking about eggs for a long time. it makes a lot of sense.

>> i keep mentioning it. >> dana: it was happening. i happened to hear from my mom last night. 4.12, december 5.36. call for two, common goods increase year-over-year. a lot of these things are staples aside from ice cream. you need bread, eggs, butter, makes a household a home. >> that's right. a lot of these things are the essentials. that's why i kept going back to eggs because it is something that we all buy, right? the cpi number we got today shows inflation elevated although cooling a bit. what it shows is that the federal reserve's campaign to raise interests rates to slow down the economy is working, and on those interest rate sensitive groups like housing, used cars, new car sales. they've all come in.

when you look at actual staples things like eggs, bread, you showed the graphic, lettuce up 25% year-over-year on lettuce. 59.9% on eggs it shows you the consumer is not getting a lot of relief even as inflation comes in. the essentials are still elevated whether it's food, like eggs and lettuce, bread or shelter. rent and shelter up 8%. the one area that's come in in price is oil and energy. i have to question that as well because china is opening up again and once you actually see the markets and the economy open up post covid in china, it will mean increased demand. increased demand will send oil prices back up. yeah, energy is off of the highs and it did come down in today's report but watch this space because as china opens up, i think you will see a little more pressure. >> bill: an hour ago we got a

consumer price index for december. 6.5%, which is down about.1%. is that enough? >> what we're seeing from this report is the federal reserves campaign to raise interests rates has impacted some areas of the economy, the interest rate sensitive aareas. people walked away from mortgages. used car sales are looking better than what they were and the prices. but there are other areas of this consumer index that show real elevation in terms of the things we buy every day. i would point to food and i would point to services and i would point to shelter and i would also 0 in on energy even though off the highest levels of the last year will likely go back higher because china is opening up. >> dana: you talk to so many interesting people and people in high positions like a lot of ceos across america.

have they had a change of heart or different thinking about the economy looking at the year ahead? >> i spoke with jamie dimon, the largest bank president. he said there is an economic hurricane coming last year. he was adamant saying the federal reserve blew it. he walked back that comment in this interview on tuesday. he said maybe i shouldn't have said hurricane but at the same time there are these storm clouds, 40-year high inflation, wages still up. when i spoke with him a couple years ago he said i've never seen the kind of pressure on talent, on wages that i'm seeing today, never in my career. he didn't shy away this time. we see the wage pressure increasing. people don't want to go back to work. the pandemic change the way people view the way they work, the job they have. as a result you see wages up 4 1/2% and that as a result is sort of setting the tone for inflation. when wages are up, employees

have to pay more and employers have to pay more and it makes the market as tight as it is. so until we really see some pressure there. even with wages up, inflation is actually up even more so. >> bill: what are you seeing on jobs out there? the jobs outlook and what is happening with the big companies? did die mon suggest the fears of a recession have ebbed? no, he is seeing a slowing economy. the fed is not done yet. he said to me the whole market is expecting the fed will take it to 5%. creeping up to 5%. he said i think it six pers percent. if the fed keeps raising rate and go to 6% it will slow other things as well. an economy continuing to weaken. employment will catch up. unemployment will catch up. so far the wage number and tightness of the labor market has kept employment looking good. it's a lagging indicator.

expect job cuts to increase. look at financial receives, goldman sachs and morgan stanley and technology as well. we'll see what the market does. the wealth effect. when you see a strong stock market -- >> bill: it has been on a bit of a rip. >> oh, my 401k is up. we'll see if it goes the other way. >> dana: maria's segments pack a punch. i love it. >> bill: president biden with an op-ed in the "wall street journal" asking both parties of congress to rein in big tech. new details on the case of the missing mother in massachusetts. the note she allegedly wrote hours before disappearing and where her husband was seen the day after she vanished.

after he disappeared taken his 6-year-old son to the juice bar to get a chocolate shake. walshe appears to face if t floor for several minutes. he said that was the only place he went that day as he was still under house arrest for conviction stemming from the sale of forged art. prosecutor say he was caught on surveillance on a home depot wearing surgical gloves and paying for cleaning supplies. earlier he texted an apology for his late reply to a happy new year message claiming he misplaced his cell phone saying his son had found that device. with her husband in jail accused of misleading investigators and anna missing her three young sons were taken into state custody. friends are pleading with the state to let them take care of the boys. >> we need to make sure the boys are staying together. understanding state custody right now, wife is alarming and

we have heard that today they would be separated in foster care, something that we did not want. >> the people of this seaside community whose hearts are breaking for this missing mother will come together tonight holding a community vigil. dana. >> dana: molly line, disturbing let's keep an eye on this point about the children and will they be able to stay together. very upsetting. >> bill: the suspect in idaho accused of murdering four students make the second court appearance a bit later this morning facing four counts of first degree murder. brian kohberger is his name. not expected to enter a plea. prosecutors debate whether or not to pursue the death penalty. a retired nypd inspector, paul. nice to sigh. you have been to idaho and now back in new york. a neighbor of kohberger's in the state of washington, 8 or 9 miles across the border saved he

asked the neighbor about the killings, whether or not he heard about it. kohberger said according to the neighbor, seems like they have no leads. seems like it was a crime of passion. the other tid bit is a police source telling people magazine talking to himself i'm fine. it's really sad what happened to them. that is what he said under his breath. i would imagine both of those individuals could be witnesses on the stand if and when this goes to trial. >> the first part goes to the pattern that seems to be developing about him that after the fact he was trying to do things to ob files indicate his involvement. he said this to the neighbor that hey, you know, this was a terrible thing but looks like a crime of passion. perhaps trying to fade the interest potentially off of him. there was other reporting, some of which looks pretty soiled, that he did things like participate in a face brook

group and called into a podcast and offered alternative theories in an effort to shade the light from him. it looks like again he is still the accused. he has the presumption of innocence. some of that stuff could come in and i'm sure cops are doing forensics on it now. >> dana: five key pieces of evidence against him. do you rank them when you think about a case like this? >> i did naturally in writing it. fox news folks asked me -- the affidavit is in legal language. they asked me to pull out the five key components that the prosecution has. it is up on the opinion page now. the dna was really the confirming factor here. the affidavit is written chronologically and a reason it culminates at the end with the match of the dna they took out of the garbage. december 28th they get the dna out of the garbage. 29 it matches, 30 they make the

arrest. we get into the circumstantial stuff after that. one of the things i mentioned in the piece that i think is pretty d damming. if you match the two things and merge them they track each other. you can see as the car moves, the cell phone moves with it. those are things that will be hard for him to explain away, including his return to the scene at 9:00 after the fact. >> bill: wonder how much we'll learn that's new or whether or not it gets frozen for a period of time? the mother of one of the victims on facebook said we spend no time being angry, energy not well spent and would not change the outcome. we have to look ahead. that's tough. today called a preliminary status conference based on idaho state law. what happens? >> this is like -- not like in a lot of states where you have an

arraignment and a plea by now. this is just a status conference for the judge, the magistrate judge to have a look and see if the probable cause is there for the case to go forward. we are used to it happening in a grand jury. in this case they went the other way. indictment is an information but a very low bar. it is a little bit of a mini trial. they will look at the four corners of the affidavit and look at the evidence they have. the judge will make a determination yes this will go forward, which is almost certainly going to happen. next sometime in the few weeks we'll have the arraignment and get the plea and battle is joined and get the discovery. >> dana: his lawyer from pennsylvania says he thinks there are holes in the probable cause and he thinks it will come up today. is that possible what we'll see? >> is it possible? sure. that's the defense's job. remember something, the probable cause document we have, the

affidavit, was just to get enough to arrest him. they have developed stuff since then. they got what they wanted, enough to make the arrest. to treat it as if it's a whole case, they got what they wanted and the case will move forward. >> bill: tv cameras today, does it mean if and when at trial there will be television cameras in the trial? >> doesn't mean that. we'll get a different judge and go over to the district judge in idaho, the presiding judge all the way through the discovery and potentially into the trial. that judge will make a determination if we get to a trial. it is possibility we'll get a plea. >> bill: really appreciate your expertise. >> dana: thanks. fox news alert now. china says its official covid death toll is low. check this out. new satellite pictures show the outbreak is far more devastating. a growing number of public schools nationwide are shutting

doors and closing down. a closer look at what's behind this. believable prices? now that's quite the duo. get two pairs of sofia vergara frames plus a free exam for $89.95 for a limited time at america's best. veteran homeowners, it's time to fight inflation. use the 3 ps: plan ahead by getting a va cash out home loan from newday. pay off your high-rate credit cards. pay yourself cash.

budgeted two minutes with each family to say goodbye to loved ones before cremation. it goes on from there. china says they have 40 deaths from covid. jamie, what's going on? >> so thank you bill. first our hearts have to go out to the people of china who are really victims of their government's blatant lies. people in china are suffering, dying in very significant numbers. but on top of that, the absolute blatant, shameful lying by the chinese government is refilly -- really not only harming china but putting the world at risk. there is a massive explosion of covid infections in china and clear the number of deaths are skyrocketing. but if we don't have accurate information, the people of china won't be able to protect themselves and those of us elsewhere in the world won't

have information about the spread of the infections, about the fatality rates and genetic mutations and why what's happening in china isn't just about china, it's about the world. >> bill: it is hard to know what the truth is. the cities are huge. you are talking about 10, 15, 20 million per city. we're trying to find out the origins of covid. i don't know if we'll get to it. you penned a letter and signed it with 43 other national security experts saying to the media, you have to pursue this. here is part of it. leading scientific journals censored dissenting voices and many writers promoted narratives or asserted conclusions unsubstantiated by evidence and reporters didn't make good efforts potential conflicts of interest of the sources. will we go forward with this or not and why did you sign the letter? >> not only did i sign the

letter, but since the earliest days of the pandemic i have been one of the leading voices calling for a full investigation into pandemic origins. it has been three years now and we don't have the kind of full investigation that we need. the primary responsibility, the primary fault is the chinese government which has destroyed samples, hidden records, imprisoned chinese people for asking the most basic questions about pandemic origins and still has a gag order preventing chinese scientists saying or writing anything about it without prior government approval. on top of that the media and scientific journals in my view and my longstanding view haven't done the job we need them to do probing the pandemic origins issue. i'm a democrat and signed this letter along with fellow republicans. this is the ultimate bipartisan and nonpartisan issue but it is

just outrageous that three years after the initial outbreak we don't yet have the kind of full investigation we need. >> bill: wealth -- with we'll' see what they do in the house. we'll speak about this very soon. jamie, thanks. >> dana: house speaker kevin mccarthy confirming that democrats adam schiff, eric swalwell and ilhan omar will lose their committee seats. former director of national intelligence john ratcliffe is here with reaction. and in just moments the president of the united states will take the podium to deliver remarks. will he address the elephant in the room, the classified documents in his possession? we'll bring it to you as it happens. from our heirloom inspired sheets to our super absorbent bath towels, to our 100% cotton quilts. every single piece is made right here in america.

nicknamed general armageddon leaving the job after three months. russia is really feeling the pressure 11 months into the war to secure new territory. that's what we see playing out on the battlefield right now especially in the eastern town of solidar. the fighting has quickly become some of the bloodiest battles we've seen since the war began. not far from there is also the contested territory of bakhmut. satellite images show buildings and practically the entire city is flattened. most people have left that town. those who continue to stay are living under constant bombardment and do not have heat and do not have running water, dana. >> dana: alex, stay safe. thank you. >> bill: back at home now president biden taking on technology companies with an op-ed in the "wall street journal" urging lawmakers on
