about being sidelined. if they are worried and if they are sidelined, they have no one but themselves to blame. they are all sellouts and bernie is a sellout too. because they compromise anti-work read by standing mute when liz cheney became the de facto running mate. but now they are trashing democrats who said that more of a radical position? >> i think that a lot of voters really don't like fake people. if during the entire tame through campaign season, you are saying that you are down with trans people for lgbt community and then you lose an election and then the next day, you say all of that stuff was wrong, i actually what people are more upset about is someone was doing something they didn't believe in just saying something. >> laura: so articulate.

aoc is grousing about congressman seth moulton who post election claimed party had gone to extreme staining "i have two little girls and i don't want them run over on a playing field by mail or male athlete but as a democrat, i'm supposed to be afraid to say that." well, that kicked off the family feud. grab the popcorn. >> i wonder what your response was to congressman seth moulton who suggested this week the democrats need to change their approach to transgender issues? >> i found that to be in at this the comment actually. i don't think trying to instill fear in joining the party that is instilling people is the right way to go about this. >> but it's about time we saw cracks of the democrat wall, the model for monolith. passed the junior mints. i want to give you a chance to your comment because i know you

have received backlash. the backlash i received was my point we can't have discussions as a party. instead, change has been traced to cancel people who bring up these difficult topics and frankly james voters. >> laura: given the inroads trump has made with the young voters, latino, black voters, are meant voters and even california, what the heck can democrats offer? abortion and saving democracy did not get it done, so why will he get it done in 2028? giving government given the epic failures of policy and messaging, who is left in the py credibility and any influence? after the trump win house minority leader jeffrey hakeem sounds like he's auditioning for something. >> we have problems we have to sell. we have to fix broken immigration system and fix the order and we have to fix and grow the middle class. we will have a family

conversation that needs to be clear-eyed, candid, comprehensive to figure out what happened on election night. >> laura: well, that is a tall order but with kamala going down in flames with obamas getting burned and with pelosi getting old, democrats need someone to lead them. when the pinch isn't really deep, jeffries actually becomes a viable candidate. congressman stacey plaskett calls the ultimate point guard with on court discipline. now, a course in the democrat regrouping. matt, let's not forget that guy kamala stupid late passed over josh shapiro a talented politician. he has a lot more likely than california liberal gavin newsom to gain traction, and we can only hope democrats may look at me repeat for something important. talk about a train wreck, yes, that is a doj joke, good luck

turn inside and outside, putting politics because all that losing swag goes down there hurt you but i will say it is nice to see leah listed the maca agenda in the top positions that they i feel like supporting someone would rather have and weasels in the top position it will beside hamas. progress. >> laura: beyonce is more like undermine trump, which is strictly what happened last time be on the same. >> but is so funny at that around in some position so your reaction to the news. >> i think the last time we kamala raised $1 billion and talked i said he's got to secure singing "can you pay my bills the border and only bad in the rush mark fight beyonce because she is broke. >> laura: i hope oprah did not cabinet post is. get that many, her production this is the starting lineup of my dream team who will be in the company did and i think oprah post. congratulations to the fox got it. to me that always entertaining family, pete, everyone whoopi goldberg wanted fans ofth loves p.m. great advocate for the tubes and a true patriot. "the view" she can relate to the it is a great choice and pulling working fans.e >> i appreciate people arear having a hard time, me too. their hair out and a lot of i work for a living and if i had all the moneey in the world woud hi-fi than mar-a-lago tonight periods be when i have to say, stacy, we have stephen miller not be here. i am a working person. >> i know, right? she shouldn't vowed to leave't white guy he white house aide. that show but vowed to leave the and susie wiles chief of staff country. people would chip in for what.

no nonsense, get the job done and i guess we will have if we started a gofundme like the will whoopi goldberg., kristi noem. i read something about kristi noem not come from but it looks like that will be confirmed that dhs. >> laura: when hite to be0 mi i mean, we have got ratcliffe at $60 million that you got the pe. the cia. what do all these picks have in common if you could give one word, billionaire out there. >> with a little coupon in, shes line and what they all have in might ge nt by. >> laura: but at least she common! >> proven results, proven tried to relate to the middle results. these are people shown ready to class. jus hit the ground running and they kamala, i was the middle class. will not be on-the-job training. they know what they are doing and they are loyalists, america whoopi goldberg in a better joba fan kamalama and that is not saying that you. all right, jimmy i watched your first patriots. >> laura: alex, there was show and always always fun. you're the best. scuttlebutt online with kristi noem having allowed a lot >> love you. >> laura: you take care and make sure to follo mw me on osha of afghan refugees or urged them to come into the dhs. media. amthank you for watching is since she did that, she should always. be the head of dhs. it is what do you make of that concern? >> l s >> carley: all eyes on >> i feel like she is someone who is sufficiently icy and cold washington, president-elect in the sense that she will get trum

stuff done in order to get ahead the agenda she is tasked with josie has the eye of the tiger and wants to be on the national stage. in that role, a role likely assigned in somebody to stand up to the media and not take any interference and the flak she will get from people on the left. she is a good fit for that. >> laura: it will be fascinating to see how this plays out and strong group of picks from president trump. stacy and alex, things. joining me now jason chaffetz. your reaction, jason, the pickup pete hegseth as secretary of defense. i have seen his name in a few articles. well, your buddy, your reaction tonight, incredible. >> i wish i could give the guy a high five. insert about it. donald trump is picking the best

people he could possibly pick. he loves his country and served his country in a true patriot. his heart is always in the right place. he will serve with victor mcvicker and wants to protect the country. he knows the issues. you have to let somebody who put it all on the line, put the uniform on and got out there and loves veterans and worked tirelessly behind the scenes to help veterans, protect veterans, take care of homeless veterans, and honor those who have given their life. you can ask for nothing more. i have got to tell you, you have hundreds of thousands of people who serve united states military. this has got to put a smile on their face, in a good, you know this pump, all right, america's back! we have donald trump as the president and j.d. vance as vice president and peak headset and the national security advisory. he is on a roll.

>> laura: pete hegseth and i just played my youtube video by accident on air. i remember he did this great bit on how the military, jason, has gone well. i was trying to find it so we could play it. he's been on that issue what wokifying are wires and middle class has done to military morale and recruitment. he has been on the problems in the deficit and recruitment like nobody's business. that is going to be a big, big task to undertake when he gets into the pentagon, which of course, he will get confirm no problem given his incredible background. that is a challenge because we have lost a lot of great an end women in the military because of how left things have gone inside the various branches. maybe not the marines, but the rest. >> i think rob o'neill who said,

we are arguing who should use which bathroom in the chinese are putting together a fighting force and building up their military. pete understands this and you put on the uniform and be out there in the combat theater like pete hegseth has. i think he will get easily confirmed. i dare any republican senator to vote against him. that is not in their best interest. we need to get him in place as soon as possible with relief on the way. this is exactly what america was striving for. i can't believe how excited i am that pete is going to beat -- i guess i should call him mr. defense secretary but i still want to call him pete. >> laura: well, i think he will go by pete, he will go by both. chasing, the thing we are not used to as republicans is just rock-solid nominees. because trump had some doozies

and he had some great picks. great people behind him who got a lot done for him. and there is always tension. that always happens. nothing new there. but he has -- and everyone makes mistakes and no one is perfect and won't be a perfect secretary, but this is unusual because the republicans have been undermined from within for a long time. both in the senate and in some of the appointments. i think trump above all, we are down with that. we don't have much time and we have to get stepped on it and we have to have transformational thinkers in these positions. i think that is what they are thinking. >> you are 100%, laura, oftentimes cabinet secretaries are like who is this person? to go find out they were part of the defense industrial complex of the past or hidden in some think tank somewhere and you are like, who are these people? thus far who is being picked out there governor huckabee to be

that pastor to israel, great picks. congressman waltz like i said national security advisor and we know these people and you have heard them speak from their hearts and sleep. that is exactly the kind of people. john ratcliffe as the cia director. that guy as big of a patriot as there is. that team donald trump is assembling, these are people we know they don't have nefarious tie of that than they love the country and want to serve president trump and serve the country. >> laura: all right, thank you very much. joining us lieutenant colonel daniel davis. colonel your reaction to pete hegseth named as trump's pentagon chief tonight? >> well, i have to say it was almost shocked because that is not a name anyone passed around talking about even being in the running. because it is unconventional, i am really helpful trump picked him because he will be one at

once a strong military but wants to keep us out of stupid wars and not get into any new ones which i'm really hope for an optimistic he can bring that to the table. >> laura: well, the big challenge for this country right now comes from china. in china, although they have economic issues and problems and we know population implosion in china, but they are still our most serious adversary in the globe, no doubt about it. so we will have to balance the need to continue to fund our military to keep pace with trina. and at the same time, rebuild our economy back home with manufacturing, new jobs that trump also plans to do. but this is what reagan had to do was rebuild the military and grow the economy. but he didn't have $36 trillion

in debt bearing down on him but horrific inflation and a country in malaise. but this is a different ball game. >> bit is, but i will tell you, pete will have a big test in front of him because frankly we have the under resourced the military in terms of what it can do. and mission it's not fulfilled to do. if we got into a war any time soon against china in china's backyard over in taiwan, the china sea, we are not equipped. we don't have the capability and infrastructure to sustain a war appeared to we have to make sure we don't get into anything in the near term and i would strongly advocate we need to build up defense capacity to make sure our strategy is tied with capability. there has been numerous reports come out just recently that showed if we got into a war with china we would run out of in receptiveness and long-range missiles long before china would.

it would be catastrophic if we got in there. hopefully, pete hegseth can fix the systemic problems. >> laura: well, i think at the same time the war in ukraine is not going well for ukraine and hundreds of thousands of people dead to. we spent $200 billion on it. a lot of republicans in the senate still want to spend billions and billions more. that is going to have to be on the table and discussed. president trump has made it very clear, he wants this ward to be over. he wants it to be done. we hope the results for the people of ukraine are going to be satisfactory. no one is going to get everything they want to hear. , do you agree with that that this ukraine issue is also going to be one of the first things with israel a situation we have to deal with? >> 100%. that is the reason i was so excited when trump first announced j.d. vance would be his running mate.

he was the leader on this and has been quite a long time about pointing out the reasons tangible, practical, strategic reasons why planning for this word is a losing proposition for ukraine in the united states. president trump has been consistent to say if he's elected that is the first thing he would do. what i can gather from talking to people inside the transition team, that is exactly what he is going to do. i could not be more strongly support about that because the war will not ever be won by ukraine side of. the longer we ignore that reality in the current administration is going to do, it will get more ukrainian people killed and more military lost periods me when we certainly hope so. retired u.s. army colonel, danny davis, thank you very much. joining us now, sorry, we are waiting on aishah hasnie but she's not hooked up yet. colonel davis, one of the things i've noticed and i keep seeing

pete's smiling face. one of the things i've noticed recent years with progressive caucus and the few mainstream democrats who have any power in the democratic party is that the squad types have been pretty silent and compliant on the war issue. and yet, they stuck with the democrats and they stuck with liz cheney and they didn't kick up a fuss with liz cheney with kamala harris. and now they have lost. so where did they go now? they sold their souls to the democratic party, and now what happens? i guess we have lost colonel davis. all right, let's hope i sure aishah hasnie but that's. senior correspondent, details that you might have regarding this pick of pete headset

tonight. >> laura, good evening to you. i would say this is the most recognizable pick so far in the president-elect's cabinet at least to the viewers, pete hegseth who has been for a while now we can "fox & friends" anchor and not joining folks on the couch after this pick announced by the president-elect. my phone is blowing up with people who are close to trump and the transition team over this announcement. clearly, this was a surprise. we had heard earlier in the day that pete was at mar-a-lago interviewing for something. he was visiting with the transition team. we didn't have any idea exactly what it was for, but this has now come as a total surprise to at least the contacts that i have around the trump campaign. i will rate off a couple of points from president-elect's statement which he is explaining

why he chose pete for the position. he talks about pete's history in the military, which you and i and the audience, obviously, are familiar with and how proud he is of his military experience. he is an army combat veteran who has done guantanamo they and decorated with two prom stars and combat infantry badge. i can tell you that this announcement we have been waiting for for a while because the president-elect has been building out national security team adding a couple of appointments. we are waiting for official confirmation on secretary of state. but this has been the biggest appointment so far from the president-elect and his transition team, laura. >> laura: rubio at state, ratcliffe at the cia, huckabee is going to israel to be at the u.s. ambassador to israel. where it is that kristi noem is

going to dhs. >> special envoy to the middle east. >> in stark comparison 2016 where i believe it took a week before they named chief of staff but this time around, it was within a couple of hours we found out about susie wiles. now, a rapid pace and some weeks but now streamlined through the campaign and president-elect is announcing his picks. >> laura: think it's a matching great to see you as always. stunning news. we know the manufactured age sham trial in manhattan to hurt trump before the election. but since that went down now they have a problem. sentencing them next president to prison. but rather than clean up the mess they made a will posit all. judge merchan agreed with alvin bragg that all proceedings put on ice.

but what does this mean fred trump? >> the trump team succeeded in getting delayed but what they don't want indefinite status and they don't want this to be lingering but they want to be able to get to a position where they can appeal. keep in mind they've never been able to get a full review of what happened at the trial. this trail is riddled with reversible error in my view. >> laura: chris clem though law clerk for justice glia and investor to mexico for president trump and doug schoen former impeachment attorney for president trump. chris, what is judge merchan goal to delay the link delayed this until 2029 question what. >> you know, laura one of the great lessons of this election is that you can't use the co court's to gain political ends. and i think judge merchan is in a situation where he is saying,

"never mind, it didn't work and we will hike the ball." his case was freak show sham from the start. and have a question it's, does he reverse it himself? or does he enter a final judgment let the court appeals. it should have never gotten there and a disgrace to the profession and judiciary periods me when it and david, pardon me for calling you have shown. we love both of you, but david, this is just so typical, judge merchan is vindictive and venal and partisan and you can tell from the outset that he wanted to stick it to trump and now just pausing instead of dismissing outright. >> no question about any follows that lead up the district attorney and district attorney acquiesced and pausing it in for trump team asked them to hold up

for a bit. the case must be dismissed and judge merchan, his conflict with sitting on the case. setting that all aside, it ought to be dismissed for the case office of legal counsel memorandum 201,973 say the federal government cannot prosecute a president, cannot indict, prosecute or continue with the prosecution. the same principles apply to the state in this case. proof that that is is considering what the principles are. it is a distraction and operation of the duties of the spirit of the president's unique alexander pickel has said no uncertain terms the president embodies indestructibility of the state. this is nothing new. 1883 just a story said "we cannot allow imprisonment to interfere with the duties of the presidency. the president is unique." it raises a separation of powers issue.

by the way, no fan of trump, law professor said we cannot allow a state prosecution to derail the functioning of the federal government. that is that the key here. >> laura: it is unreal, chris and david, both. we just received a statement from our boss at fox, he had set the exceptional host on fox & friends and best-selling author for fox news for a decade to. his analysis especially the military resume with the viewers and made the program a success it is today. we are extremely proud of fox news and wish him the best of luck in washington. coming up, a young republican just won a seat in philly. the state senate for the first time that this has happened in decades. he will join us next.
