eve morning which we've spent together for the past three hours. we have one more hour to hang out for the fourth hour of "fox & friends." you've been sending in christmas eve photos. nicole: like this one from the o'real family decked out in patching christmas pajamas. >> christine in michigan sends this photo, her dog jackson ready for christmas. jackson is definitely in the christmas spirit there. >> and this baby is sitting on santa's lap, santa's in you in y hat. love it. >> how did they get a perfect picture of a baby looking at the camera, smiling. you rarely get that. >> that bay baby has a stoic . that's the best posed baby ever in a christmas photo. >> keep the pictures come today and tomorrow. >> all morning long we've been checking in on the big you guy, santa claus in japan. he just delivered his b billionh

gift for the day. >> i didn't know we had a gift tracker. i'm knew norad and rick were tracking -- i like that they're together. rick competing with norad on the same level with norad, tracking santa around the globe. >> santa can't do this without rick, by the way. >> we have a gift tracker. >> rick is tracking the gifts. norad is tracking the location. >> we have so many more people than we did 30 years ago. now we have 7 billion people. it's a lot of gifts, a lot more work. >> assuming they're all nice. >> some will be on the you naughty list. >> thankfully he's got good weather. >> next time you're talking to him, the guy from norad, find out how he's handling more gifts. did he hire more elves? things are looking pretty good. we've got almost pretty good

weather everywhere. we have cold air across parts of russia and mongolia. parts of far eastern europe. but ove overtemperature wise, ee is looking really good. this is christmas day weather here, tokyo will be at 55 degrees. plenty of sunshine. honolulu, come on, 80 degrees. pretty normal this time for year. phoenix, 65, mexico city, 72. nobody with really cold air and no big storms except we have one big storm across the central part of the country he that has blizzard warnings attached to it. we'll get there in one second, once we get the globe to stop spinning. now we can move on. we've got a winter storm warning in effect, we have a winter warning in eviden effect, partsf nebraska. by the time we're done some spots will see over a foot of snow, that will be blowing, drifting snow. in addition to the snow we've got an ice storm that will begin

to develop, this will start late tonight into tomorrow so if you're driving across i-90, i-94, be very careful. if you are not flying, but you're trying to drive somewhere in the morning you'll have big problems. it's part of the storm right here, bringing big rain across parts of texas and into louisiana and then snow across the far nor northern section of that. east coast, west coast looking great. back to you you. >> you give up the point, the gift demand has gone way up because the population has grown. what does santa do, does he hire for elves. does t the elf population chang? is there a bunch of unemployed elves in the past? ?that's a great point. or could we apply to be elves? >> no, you're not an elf. >> aren't elves people who want to be an elf or are you born an elf. >> he's not running human labor

ring. he ha has elves he uses, are there some elves sitting around doing nothing. >> any time i've seen movies, they seem very happy. i think they're very excited to do gifts. with the rise in population they're just going -- they're happy to have the higher workload. >> i get that. i am figuring out like before, were there a bunch of elves who were -- >> unemployed elves. >> i don't see why you won't let rick be one. buddy was a good elf. rick could be one too. >> we know santa is special. i don't know if the elves were like humans that you applied to be elves. i think it might be that way. or are you born an elf? >> i don't know was we're doing here. >> big questions. [laughter] >> go be an elf. so i was going to try to make some transition here. there is one to be made. >> you know what it is?

santa for his age, he's really agile and able to really get around a. but you know who is notas agile? president biden. john kerry says president biden is doing great and any of his critics, that's just ageism. >> when you say to me, you know, i'm 80 years old. i don't think about age. honestly, i don't. the other day i said to my friends, we were gathered, i said, you know, at 80 i can do everything i used to do when i was 50 but i don't remember what it is. [laughter] > it must tick you off all this stuff about biden and his age. >> it does. it's ageism. he's done a brilliant job i think as president. he's strengthened nato, been able to galvanize people around critical values that are at a stake in ukraine. i don't know what happened to a lot people who backed away from that now. the cost of not persevering would be just extraordinary for the world and i think knows how

the congress works, knows america, knows how the world works. that's what you need today. >> i wonder if knows owl the elves work, -- knows how the elves work, just to belabor the point. >> it's a cop out on anything these days to the point had that it doesn't need to be belabored but oh, i'm a accused of not doing my job or something is not going well or any kind of criticism has come out, oh, that's racism, sexism, misogyny and now that's ageism. >.>> president biden, he's on , he's galvanizing people together, like what world is he living in? he is not able to get motivation or enthusiasm from anyone which is why his polling is so low. >> you're a doctor. >> yes, i am. >> at some point we'll acknowledge in the conversation, john kerry is a good example, that you can be in two very different physical states at age 80.

>> absolutely. that's a numerical value. but we're talking about when you look and you are -- let's do a very obvious comparison. look at president biden compared to president trump, they are similar age. but they are very different in their physical performance. yes? >> yes, for sure. >> absolutely. yes it is an age and they are both getting older. bottom line, it's the gaffes, the constant tripping, being on vacation way more than i've ever been my entire life, these are the things americans are watching. on the world stage, doesn't make for good optics. >> the campaign manager was saying here in recent days that they can't wait to use the secret weapon which is to put biden on the campaign trail in every state and do retail politicking. we asked congressman jason chaffetz if biden is up for that. here's what he said. >> i don't think it's as much about ageism as it is about the idea about joe biden's ability to negotiate and when i say

negotiate, negotiate stairs, bicycles, and teleprompter. would you get on an air pipeline if the guy was -- airplane if the guy was flying a plane? i wouldn't. i don't know if he would qualify to get a golf cart driver's license in the villages. i wouldn't want to ride in a golf cart with him. this is the problem. it's not how hold he is. he's not up to the job. everybody knows it. to try to deny that he's in cognitive decline, come on, it's not realistic. >> yeah. so you can't escape the criticism no matter how many times you say ageism. we start here. contributes are pouring in for the dixie chicks founding member laura lynch. she died after getting into a car crash last night. she died following a head on collision on a highway in west

texas. the band writing we are shocked and saddened to learn of the passing, we have a special time in our heart. lynch was 65 years old. now to the crisis at the southern border, bill melugin spotting this sign at tucson international airport friday night saying non-u.s. citizens without passports only. airport personnel directing migrants to this line for domestic flights that would of disburse them all around the country. it's christmas eve and fox news digital revealed a miracle on 34th street is the top christmas movie of all time. >> she's a little confused and i thought maybe he could help to straighten her out. >> i'd be glad to. >> would you please tell her that you're not real santa claus, that there is no such person. >> i'm sorry to disaagree. not only is there such a person but here i am to prove it. >> we asked what your favorite movie is. susan said she likes the

christmas chronicles just like nicole's kids and janice argues christmas vacation is the the best. i agree, janice. lewis says it might not be a movie you can't beat -- it's not actually a movie. it's a tv show. >> carlie brown christmas, that's a movie. charlie brown christmas. that's a great one. also on our list. >> and those are your headlines. we were surprised with the top seven. miracle on 34th street was -- >> elf was up there, that's a great one. >> jingle all the way two wasn't so i don't want to get into had that fight but i'll tell you what, coming up, there's been a lot of tears watching that movie. it was very important. a commander threatening to shut down the mediterranean sea, can they do that, the exiled crown prince of iran joins us next. >> what's the best dish at christmas dinner a.i. has a list.

>> tensions growing in the mideast, houthi militants targeting more cargo ships as iranian commander is now reportedly threatening to shut down the mediterranean sea as we reported earlier, he's talking about the red sea. now, it comes as a chemical tanker off the coast of india was targeted by a one way attack drone fired from iran just yesterday. our next guest knows about the threats we face from iran, reza pahlavi is the exiled crown prince and he joins us now. reza, great to have you on the program this morning. >> good morning. >> you're seeing this ramping up of terrorism. it's across europe, it's in the oceans, in the middle east. what do you make of iran and their actions in the wake of this war in israel? >> this regime has pretty much mastered proxy wars and particularly emboldened and a open p occurringed when appeasement becomes an element

that gives them more reason to push the envelope. we shouldn't be surprised to see these are the kind of acts that the regime will take advantage of, to try to get as much credit as possible without at the same time assuming the responsibility or the consequences of it. >> do you feel like that iran -- we talked about this earlier, but do you think these proxy forces, do you think they have the capability of fulfilling the threats they're making, not just towards the united states but the world at large when it comes to these shipping lanes in parts of the world? >> well, as we can plainly see, they have to some extent been able to disrupt. i don't know how much fire power you mean by implying in your question. also depends on how much more backing they'll get from the key allies that support them. but having said that, we should not just look at the surface and appearance of what this regime does. we have to understand that a lot of it is out of weakness and despair at home.

why? because they have lost the united nations completely. at the same time, they're conducting a war of aggression abroad, they're also using tremendous repression at home and one has to understand that it is the nature of this regime that demands it to behave the way it does in order to maintain themselves in power, it has to continue maintaining repression at home but at the same time conduct the kind of aggression to first of all deflect attention from itself and this is why they use proxy wars to achieve that exactly, whether it is hamas or hezbollah or any other problems heys that they support -- proxies that they support, including the houthis. >> there's been conversation recently that he say there were an election if the west bank, that palestinians living in the west bank would vote for hamas, pointing out that a lot of what you're seeing take place is popular at least among the population there in the west bank and gaza. you brought up what's happening

in iran and attitude of the public in iran. you're telling me this is vastly different, that the iranian regime is unpopular with its own people there and they have to conduct repression domestically to keep control of the population. it begs the question at some point what will the population do if this regime remains so unpopular? >> well, it's a matter of time. we have seen the end of totalitarian regimes or fascist regime or racist regime at some point it's bound to happen. we saw it in the case of south africa. we've seen the collapse of the soviet union. i don't think there is any difference in terms of the fate of this regime. the question always has been at what cost, how much opportunity cost to a nation in order to ultimately liberate itself. but here's the more important issue. on the eve of christmas and when i think of the fate of of iranin

christians who probably are now trying to celebrate christmas in illegal churches because on the surface their leaders and priests get executed by the regime which consider moving out of the faith illegal. we have to understand that the values the iranian people stand for are the very same of the free democratic world and i find it astounding that to this you day rather than supporting, maximum support to a nation that has the b army in the world in place to bring about change they haven't received the support they deserve in order to free themselves. we are wasteing time trying to negotiate with a regime that takes hostages and takes advantage of weakness when it comes to putting maximum pressure on them as opposed to for instance listing the houthi as a terrorist organization and emboldening those trying to take advantage of the western interest. exiled crown prince reza

pahlavi we appreciate you being with us and speaking on the issue you. >> merry christmas and happy holidays and a special shoutout to the iranians. >> we told you earlier who is on the naughty list. now it's time for the "fox & friends" nice list. first, the importance of family. right now, there are more than 18 million fatherless kids in america. our next guest says this crisis is damaging families and causing childhood poverty. jack brewer joins us on this christmas eve, next. is all about presents and shopping and cookies and trees. but we know christmas isn't about something you buy at a store. it's about something so much greater. it is the day we celebrate the incredible truth that god so loved the world that he gave his only son. it's not about presents. it's about jesus. join me this advent in praying every day on hallow. cut through the noise

and find god's peace. as someone living with type 2 diabetes, i want to keep it real and talk about some risks. with type 2 diabetes you have up to 4 times greater risk of stroke, heart attack, or death. even at your a1c goal, you're still at risk ...which if ignored could bring you here... ...may put you in one of those... ...or even worse. too much? that's the point. get real about your risks and do something about it. talk to your health care provider about ways to lower your risk of stroke, heart attack, or death. learn more at getrealaboutdiabetes.com woman: who's that, who is that? cole: this is my puppy! woman: cancer. it's different in a child. because your child is still growing. charlie: i had 14 rounds of chemo. there's thousands and thousands of kids all over the world who need help. girl: it is my first time having cancer. and it's the very worst.

welcome back to "fox & friends," obviously so many people wanting to get home for christmas. for the most part it will be okay. let me show you a couple things we're watching. your white christmas, we might be looking at the least white christmas that we've ever had across the lower 48. not much going on, that's snow across nebraska, south dakota,

north dakota. that will be falling right now you into tomorrow which means you'll have a white christmas. temperature wise, 55 degrees today for a i high in chicago. 50s across parts of minnesota, across parts of wisconsin, really warm air, record breaking warm air across areas of the far northern plains. behind the storm is where the colder air comes in. you see the rain across texas and louisiana. that will cause a few problems across some of those area airports. this is where you see the blue, that's snow and this will turn into a blizzard that is going to be tonight into tomorrow. tom even through tuesday, get ready for one to two feet of snow and blowing and drifting snow, will cause major problems across the roads across the northern plains. send it to you inside. >> snow just there but the least white christmas everywhere else. we are breaking my heart. breaking my heart. >> sad, yeah. >> well, this christmas season more than 18 million kids are celebrating in homes without a

father and more than half are liviliving in poverty. the 71% of high school dropouts come from fatherless homes. the same goes for 70% in juvenile detention and 75% have aggressive behavior. jack brewer is a man of god with a mission to help end fatherlessness in america with his foundation. he joins us now. good morning, jack. merry christmas eve. thank you so much for joining us. >> good morning. unfortunately, i don't hear the show but i'm watching you on my feed. right now, christmas time is such a joyous time but our nation is struggling in regards to fatherlessness with 18.4 million fatherless kids and this holiday i just encourage everyone to remember that on christmas day, god sent our father and i think that if we look deeply at what's going on in the nation, we'll see that

our schools right now have just been devastated by this leftist approach to education that's removed god, removed family, and the importance of that from our kids' lives and so our father was sent to us from heaven and jesus christ and he can save this nation if we will just empower ourselves this holiday season to believe in him and follow his commandments. >> so jack, this is something that means a lot to me, i wrote a children's book with my son called "that's what family's for" about leaning on your family during difficult times. 18.4 million children are fatherless in this country. why is keeping the new nuclear family alive and well in the holiday season. >> we're better than this. you think about what our founding fathers represented. you think about all the things that our soldiers and our military fight for.

you think about everything that we put so much passion into across the u.s. and it comes back to fathers. it comes back to family. and no matter what your perspective is, the father is supposed to be the head of the household and so when you take that root out of the family, you break down that foundation. little boys are in the streets. they had a new report showed that our children are three times more likely to be shot in the streets in america than they ever have been in the past and so that's because these boys don't have fathers that would uphold them and spank them and keep them accountable. you start looking at reading and math had proficiencies. you have entire schools in the most prosperous cities that we've had in our history, with no kids that can read and write and do math at their grade level. 71% of every dropout is fatherless. ladies and gentlemen, we have

an issue and if we don't put put programs in place. at the jack brewer foundation we run programs for these children, we go into the prisons. many of us don't think about prisoners. this holiday, you've got millions of kids they will wake up with their dads in jail. it wasn't their fault, whatever their dad did. their dads are in prison. these are generational curses. the odds of these kids going to prison are 20 times more likely than many of our kids. why? because they had a run-in with law enforcement and these kids are fatherless and so we have to remember what these deep rooted issues are doing, the i'll pacts they're having, -- impacts they're having, whether in the prison, whether in the juveniles, the kids in the schools. this is not a black, white, green, purple issue, not about money. there's a lot of families that are wealthy whose dads need to do their jobs and be fathers to their children. but my message is, it's hard to

do that without jesus christ. we do not have to have power. gee cuss christ was sent -- jesus christ was sent to us to heal us. all of our addictions, emotional depression and things we're going through right now as a nation can't be saved by our lord and -- can be saved by our lolord and savior jesus christ. >> children in poverty in the yaunited states has doubled sine 2022. check out the jack brewer foundation. merry christmas. >> god bless you. god bless everybody at fox for standing for truth. >> thank you. well, coming up, santa claus is coming to town and friends at norad are tracking saint nick as he delivers presents around the world. speaking of santa, we told you earlier who is on the naughty list. now it's time for the "fox & friends" nice list. first, the vincent bohananon and

sound of victory choir plays us out on this christmas eve. ♪ until the son of god appears. ♪ rejoice. ♪ rejoice. ♪ emanuel. ♪ shall come to thee --

merry christmas eve. earlier this morning we showed you who made santa's you naughty list. now it's time we show you the bright side and who made the nice list. >> so let's take a look at some of the americans helping our country become a better place. we'll start by the way with jonathan warback, a fed ex driver that famously this year rescued someone in a car he happened upon that was on fire. >> look at the video. unbeunbelievable that happened. not only does he make a fire fieryrescue, after he gave the e a statement, he continued to deliver packages. >> he was on "fox & friends"

you few months ago. here's what he had to say. >> this is just i guess a natural reaction. went around the corner or in a bend in the highway and saw the car on fire and there wasn't anybody else there yet. i was just the first one to come upon it so i pulled over and it was already on fire so i pulled over and grabbed my fire extinguisher from the truck and ran back there. >> he s said he had enough time to make the heroic rescue. >> that's hero stuff. the definition of a hero is what you do in that moment of crisis. now, officer brendan fraser also was on "fox & friends," he is trained for this stuff but even he went above and beyond the call. >> also making the nice list, brendan fraser, who rescued a baby, a famous video you can see where he got out, took care of the baby, took it from the mother. in fact, let's roll tape.

i think we have the sound on this one. we don't have it. you can see there, he takes the baby from the mother. she is asking entire time, oh, no, she is asking what he is doing, he says give me the baby and he ends up saving this baby. >> he performed cpr essentially by tapping it on the back. this black camaro was going 75, 80 miles an hour. >> trying to get to the hospital. >> someone says oh, there's a problem, pulls them over of, realize they're in distress. the baby makes it to the hospital and he saves the baby's life. >> and he was on "fox & friends." >> next on the list. jonathan isaac. this one's interesting. this is not an officer. this is not a fed ex delivery man. this is an nba forward for the orlando magic. he decided to align his faith, put his mouth where his money was. leaving nike to start his own product. >> jonathan isaac is doing something we talked a lot about. we talk about patronizing

companies that don't share values or finding alternative economies where there are products that actually reflect your values. jonathan isaac famous for standing for the national anthem with the orlando magic when many in the nba close to kneel. this summer launched the juda brand of shoes under the brand unitas. it's designed for people who believe, have faith, have these values and that's an example of the shoe right there that he's put out. jonathan was as well on "fox & friends." >> i believe exclusion was standing for the nation alan them. i didn't want to align myself with the black lives matter organization. i decided to stand up and i believe that values matter and today's day when we give our money to companies that don't support our values we're cosigning the message, i believe it stands for faith, family and

freedom and will work to bolster those values. >> we put jonathan isaac on the nice list as well. as we did dylan kaufman. >> this is near and dear to my heart. you get a lot of rough waves out there surfing. you can put yourself in a dangerous situation. this flag leler beach police officer saw two swimmers out there. he takes it upon himself -- he's not a trained rescue swimmer. he is a police officer but he goes in the water and rescues both swimmers and they survive, remarkable a stuff right there. >> another heroic action taken by some first responders, some average day american citizens like fed ex drivers who are doing things without much praise or fan fare that make them great americans and i would expect on santa's nice list. >> they're on the nice list. they're people we add a meyer

for actions -- admire for actions they took. the fifth guy witnessed the worst wildfire in 100 years take place in lahina. >> it's not the prompter. >> more than 2,000 people lost their homes and you, will, are going to make our nice list because you just days after, about a week later, you go to the island, spend days reporting. then you spend a month gathering more than a million dollars. you gathered gifts. you go back to the people to bring much needed relief and today i believe, correct me if i'm wrong, your gofundme has more than 2 and-a-half million raised. you continue to support the people in h hawaii which, that's why you make the nice list and are an everyday hero. >> thanks. that means a lot. thank you, fox. thank you to all of you. we did raise 2 and-a-half million dollars. it's an ongoing process of the quite honestly i was working on a new days ago, trying to

personally connect with every recipient, $12,000 grants for people who lost their homes, over 200 people received money thanks to your generosity. i appreciate being on the list. it's the generosity people watching that make this possible. it's one of the most meaningful things that happened in my career. it's a horrible tragedy. i saw the goodness in americans so thank you, man. >> great job. great job. merry christmas. thank you much. nicole, toss it over to you. >> i wish i was there. i would give will a big hug. certainly deserves to be on the nice list. it was wonderful, used your voice the way you did. we turn to headlines now. police arresting a suspect after he led them on a chase in what officers say was a stolen box truck through los angeles yesterday. officials say the driver tried to shake off law enforcement, swerving into the opposite lane, driving on the curb and more. the chase ended when he hit the

median and nearly flipped. no word yet on charges. and so what are the best christmas foods? a according to google's a.i. tool, cranberry sauce, turkey, gravy, stuffing, roasted veg vegetables make the top five. we asked you about favorite dishes. danny's christmas dinner fee insured seafood gum bow and potato salad. donna has been having homemade rravioli, sausage and meet balls for decades. also, prime rib and red wine. sounds delicious. this morning, a new report reveals the biden administration tried to keep the chinese spy flight secret from the american public and congress members. sunday morning futures anchor maria bartiromo is here to react. good morning, yay. merry christmas eve. will you be doing seven fishes tonight. >> i will not do the seven fishes, i never liked the seven

fishes even though i know it's the tradition. my sister does the seven fishes. ism not going to do it. i'll probably do two of fish. that will be fiefnlt we don't need to do seven fishes. we can't eat all that fish. >> we don't either. what is your take? former senior u.s. official responds that the chinese spy balloon, saying before it was spotted publicly there was the intention to study it and let it pass over and not tell anyone about it. they the weren't paying attention. maria: one word for you, nicole. that is brazen. i think this story indicates so much about two different stories. number one, it shows how brazen the chinese communist party is and the aggression that it ha has continued to spike and put on against america since joe biden walked into the oval office. what does beijing have on joe biden? i don't know, this is so brazen and aggressive of communist china to send a balloon.

it was the size of three school busses, that's how enormous it was. the second part of the story is also under the headline of brazen. the administration, how brazen can you get to decide that you are going to hide this from the american people. it wasn't until people in montana on the ground saw this crazy, huge balloon which is the size of three school busses flying overhead that we actually learned that there it was. so brazen on all sides. it certainly does indicate that the chinese communist party a is serious about overtaking the number one super power, the united states. he wants to overtake the u.s. as the number one super power and it is zeroing in on that narrowly focused with incredible focus and determination and it shows that this administration is not responding to that aggression in kind. we saw that over and over again with covid-19 and the leak from the wuhan lab and the ccp saying no questions, we're not having

any investigations, the u.s. responded with nothing. again, we have an incredibly brazen situation from the ccp and unfortunately a brazen situation from this administration as well by thinking they were going to just cover it up and not discuss this with the american people. john ratcliffe, the former dni was on the program when this was happening about a year ago and he told us straight away breaking news that, yes, this was a surveillance balloon and it was likely having a payload of massive surveillance tools to surveil america and its nuclear installations, he's going to join me this morning to talk about that. he also broke news with me recently that china is likely going to interfere in the election so we're talking about election interference both by the ccp and by the way by joe biden's henchmen, all of the efforts to take the vote away from the american people and let colorado's supreme court decide and the doj decide in terms the of who we want to see on that

ballot. we're talking about that this morning, i'm leading the show with ron johnson, senator from wisconsin then we'll talk with vivek ramaswamy and his wife about the current state of affairs with just a couple of weeks before the iowa caucus, we'll get into all of the above with john ratcliffe. we end the show with cardinal timothy dolan with a special message on this christmas eve about christmas and about hope overriding upset and light overriding darkness. he gave me a great tour of st. patrick's cathedral, incredible renovation. i'll bring all of that to you. >> sounds like a great lineup for sunday morning futures. thank you, maria, merry christmas. >> merry christmas, everybody. >> still ahead, grammy nominated song writer gavin mcgraw performs his song next.

♪ when people come, they say they've tried lots of diets, nothing's worked or they've lost the same 10, 20, 50 pounds over and over again. they need a real solution. i've always fought with 5-10 pounds all the time. eating all these different things and nothing's ever working. i've done the diets, all the diets. before golo, i was barely eating but the weight wasn't going anywhere. the secret to losing weight and keeping it off is managing insulin and glucose. golo takes a systematic approach to eating

that focuses on optimizing insulin levels. we tackle the cause of weight gain, not just the symptom. when you have good metabolic health, weight loss is easy. i always thought it would be so difficult to lose weight, but with golo, it wasn't. the weight just fell off. i have people come up to me all the time and ask me, "does it really work?" and all i have to say is, "here i am. it works." my advice for everyone is to go with golo. it will release your fat and it will release you.
