historic event after trump travels to the white house to meet president biden. trump joined biden at musk at mar-a-largo and they sang "god bless america." ♪ wow! trump knows how to pick the singers. you have to give him a hand on that one. began with the "new york post" headline saying welcome back to president trump as he made to it the west wing in the oval office. the day ended with "god bless america." thank you. dvr the show. here's "america reports." >> we got to preserve the tax cuts, to preserve our economy. we have to secure our border, confirm judges as quickly as possible.

>> i'm going to be supportive and hopefully we can really get a lot done especially in the first two years. we have to do it now. >> we have a lot on our plate. we know the direction we're going to go. the president campaigned on it and that's what the america people responded to when they went to the ballot box. >> president trump was always engaged with members of congress, coming over, getting a chance to talk back and forth. we went to the white house. a lot of interaction to move legislation. >> john: the trump transition well underway, which includes new majorities in the house and senate given control of both chambers and the presidency. if that was a recipe for getting things done, there you go. i'm john roberts. good to see you today. >> thanks for having me. i'm gillian turner in for sandra smith. this is "america reports." republicans have now picked up two more house seats. they have reached the magic number needed for the majority in the new congress. they plan to move quick to start implementing the president-elect's agenda as soon as he takes office come day one. >> john: we're going to take to

john barrasso about what is in store in a couple minutes. first, democrats are laying out a last-ditch wish list for president biden. >> hillary vaughn is live on capitol hill for us. >> it's not over until it's over. house democrats are hoping to squeeze every last minute out of president biden's presidency that they can. they want him to start using his pen to push through executive orders on their wish list, everything from sparing as many illegal immigrants from mass deportation as possible to protecting entire agencies that they think would go away under president-elect trump. >> i think there's a lot that we can do around folks that have been here in our country. and need pathway to citizenship. >> we're still figuring out what agenda we want to pursue and ask the president for. there's some things that need to happen on immigration. >> one of the things i'm most worried about is some of the

promises like the department of education. anything the president can do to shore up the civil service that makes up the federal government is really important. >> democrats also chimed in on how some of their supporters have been reacting to this devastating election loss. >> some democrats are having a hard time coping with the election loss. some are uninviting their family for thanksgiving, some are divorcing their husbands and shaving their heads. this rationale behavior? >> i would have no where to eat if i uninvited republicans for thanksgiving. it's tough. we have to move on. >> we have reactions to certain things when things are unfortunate. we all overreact. >> so it seems that some democrats in congress are brushing off this loss a little bit better than some of their supporters. at least they're not willing to give up thanksgiving turkey over it. gillian? >> thanks, hillary vaughn on capitol hill. thank you. >> john: george bush liked to say, gobble, gobble.

republicans cementing their grip on power by holding on to the house. what will the first order for business for the united gop? let's bring in john barrasso. he's the new whip. it's official january 3. >> thank you. >> john: so holding the presidency, the house and the senate, president trump, when he gets in office, will expect a lot will get done. is the senate going to serve as a rubber stamp for the president or will there be thoughtful consideration of everything he puts there? >> what he represents an american agenda. voters told us they want secure borders, lower prices and make sure the economy kicks in and make sure we have more american energy. they want to restore our strength in the world stage. those are the things the morns want. the house wants, the senate wants and everything that president trump talked about during the election. that is the reason that we won. we've been meeting today. i just came from a meeting of

all the republicans that will take over as the chairman of the committees in the united states senate. the leadership team met earlier today focused on things that president trump can do immediately, in terms of restoring control at the borderline get back to enforcing the law and bringing back things like remain in mexico. those things worked. what he can do immediately to take the handcuffs off of american energy so we can produce emergency energy in place here. and getting his time confirmed quickly. no surprise he's making bold decisions and bold appointments and doing it more rapidly and thoughtfully than what happened in 2016 because he's been thinking about this all along. >> and he has the first term to learn from his experiences, something that he's spoken about. he wishes that he had made some different key decisions. were you surprised -- i don't know if i'd say i'm surprised, but i noted this week when he's

laying out the top tier cabinet posts, he's going with the national security bench looking at his national security adviser, secretary of state, secretary of defense nominations as opposed to more of an economic focus, treasury and commerce. it was interesting to see that's what he prioritized. >> we'll hate to lose marco rubio in the united states senate but he's the right person for secretary of state. he will project the same strength that president trump has been projecting and it's such opposite of what we've seen under the biden administration, which was a position of weakness, which invited those to come in and be aggressive toward us. so that was a great choice. we'll make sure as we were talking today at our leadership meeting, we take over january 3. the president doesn't come in until january 20th. we want to hold hearings on the nominees early so by january 20th, we can get ready that day

to vote and get as many cabinet positions filed day one. so the president has his team around him as quickly as possible. the president really does feel the clock ticking already. he says i only have four years. we have a lot to get done if we want to get america back on track. that's what the american people demanded with this electionout come? a big part of the conversation has been the nomination of matt gaetz to be attorney general. will he get confirmed? >> he will have a fair hearing and people will have a chance to vote. what i want to do and specifically with this and you'd expect the president to make bold decisions and appointments. look what happened to the president over the last four years. we have seen the justice department in this administration weaponized, politicized. they have dragged president trump through the court repeatedly. nobody should be above the law. nobody should be the target of the law. president trump has been the target of the law. when he talks about draining the swamp, it's'just all of washington but specifically the department of justice.

this is no surprise that the president has made a bold announcement and decision there. every one that he's nominated so far better than the people in there right now. >> a warning from your friend and colleague, senator chuck schumer. take a listen to what he had to say. curious your response. >> to my republican colleagues, i offer a word of caution in good faith. take care not the misread the will of the people and do not abandon the need for bipartisanship. after winning an election, the temptation may be to go to the extreme. we've seen that happen over the decades and it's consistently backfired on the party in power. >> what do you make of those words? >> the will of the people is known across the country. look at the results on election night. we want the country back on track. under the past administration, one in four americans say the

country is heading in the right direction. this is an election of are you better off than you were four years ago. overwhelmingly the american people said no. what we've seen with this election to whatever chuck schumer wants to believe is fine with him. what i know is the republican party has changed, expanded. hard working american families, young people. minorities. all of these folks have been struggling to get by, i think we're unified in trying to say we need the country back on track. what -- the story you just played prior to that, what the democrats are trying to force through in the final days before the next congress takes over, illegal immigrants becoming citizens. they're trying to hijack the process with these midnight regulations and rules. it's wrong to try to do that. we ought to let the new governing majority take on in the house and the senate and the white house and get this american agenda on the move to success. >> john: schumer's statement

about don't misread the will of the american people which is ironic because that's what the democrats believe the harris campaign did. >> they didn't listen. they were so focused on donald trump. they didn't listen to the people saying we want to shut the border, unleash american energy and get prices down. >> john: thanks, senator. a lot of work to do. >> thank you. >> thanks for taking time with us. so president biden is travelling to south american for the apex summit. the world leaders are fixed on the incoming trump administration. jackie heinrich joins us from the white house. >> president biden is on his way to south america for the first of two back-to-back summits where he will try to ensure the foreign policy priorities remain in place when he's gone. he's a lame duck. the incoming president is making calls of his own. trump gave his cell phone number to the indonesian leader in a

call this week and said call any time you want. trump is haunted by career government officials leaking calls during his first time. so he's flouting procedure and calling folks directly. he's already had a call with xi jinping that biden is set to meet with saturday. the white house would not share details about what trump and biden discussed when they were face-to-face at the white house yesterday. we can gather china was part of the list. >> i think for us to succeed in the long-term competition with the p.r.c., it will require a barn foundation. when it comes to investing in our alliances, the sources of strength at home, we'll advocate because they're not political issues but american issues that can serve this country. >> the chinese foreign ministry said they hope the two sides will work for peaceful co existence and win-win

collaboration to find the right way for china and the u.s. to get along in the new era to the benefit of the two countries and the world. those words, "new era" might hold some weight for the outgoing administration as president biden is trying to make sure that what he has done as president sort of stays in place during his trip abroad. we're hearing a bigger concern and bigger objective for his travel might be ukraine. there's worried that u.s. support might be a question mark under this administration, a big focus that he will have is on a sidelines talking to european allies and partners to sustain that fight and position ukraine for the best negotiation possible if it comes to that. >> if they sit down at the table at some point. jacqui heinrich from 1600 pennsylvania avenue. john? >> john: nonprofits that stayed to stop president trump's first term in office are having a

tough time. charles payne next on whether it would make a difference anyways. plus this. >> we want to really lean in to here is making sure that states are equipped to protect our constitution and protect our democracy. >> we also want to make sure there isn't a violation of people's rights with raids, for example. >> two democratic governors kick starting a playbook to counter trump's agenda. how it lines up with the message that voters sent last week. more on that coming up. losing hope, that's the re al disaster. al when tropical storm fred sent a devastating wall of water and debris down this river, it seemed hopeless. but when the waters receded, belfor was here. not just to rebuild, but to help restore the life of this community. belfor. restoring more than property.

nonprofits vow a new resistance. will donors pay? charles payne joins us. it's early yet. see how the resistance will shape up when the new administration comes in. the early signs are that the democratic party's donors, whether they're big or small, have some weariness and sort of exhaustion after the billion dollars that they poured in to kamala harris's losing race. >> there's no doubt. this is a time of intraspection if you're on the losing side. if you think about almost all the great warriors out there, the great generals, great strategists in military, the first thing they tell you is retreating is a good option. this may be the time to look in the mirror and see what you want to believe in.

yesterday real clear politics have a poll on economic sentiment, it erupted up 13% the first time its been positive since 2021. think about that. there's so much enthusiasm out there, so much animal spirits. you want to throw more money trying to dissuade that at this moment? >> john: here's what dave and ken wrote in "the new york times." nonprofits are finding that some supporters are not energized by another round of resistance. instead, they have been left exhausted wondering whether their donations made any difference. some are afraid they could be targeted by retaliation by trump and his allies by donating to groups that oppose his administration. clearly the trump administration is not going to take the resistance lightly when it comes to some sort of push back. let's put it that way. also, do you think democrats just realize, this didn't work in the 2024 election. so why should we try it again?

>> well, definitely have to -- they have to go back to the drawing board before you throw more money at it. this is the new york knicks strategy. let's throw money at it and lose every year. if you believe in what you believe in, fine. you have to find out why the american people rejected it and overcome their own echo chamber. when you start to say like worried about retaliation, those are the same sort of comments that turned people off in the first place. president trump is hitting the ground running, pulling together a cabinet and ideas. they're not looking backwards to fight people. any time those suggestions are bright up, you automatically turn folks off. if you want them to listen to your message, you made it that much harder. >> gillian: how much donor weariness would you a tribute to the reality that just in the last week or so millions of small dollar democratic donors found out that their money was

used to pay tens or hundreds of millions of dollars to hollywood celebrities? >> i'd be calling the refund desk. there's got to be a refund desk. honestly. think about this. they shouldn't be surprised in a sense that the biden-harris administration has opinion bragging about taking taxpayer money, billions and billions of dollars and giving it to the richest companies, american semi conductor companies. they took billions and billions of american taxpayer dollars and gave it to people with phds. they have this weird thing about them. they like taking money and giving it to the people that need it the least. does cardi b. really need money? these folks that got this money, millions of dollars, that they need it? by the way, how much of their support was organic when you have to pay them to show up? i'd be hitting that refund button fast. >> john: the fact that you had to buy the celebrities in the first place, i don't think donald trump did that with lee

greenwood. he showed up at every event. >> gillian: he might have paid for the air fare. i don't know. >> john: i want to ask you about doge. >> gillian: it's all the rage, particularly on x. here's what doge wrote on x. we're very grateful the to the thousands of americans that have expressed interest in helping us at doge. we don't need more part time idea generators. we need small government revolutionaries willing to work 80 plus hours a week on unglamorous cost cutting. if that's you, elon and vivek will review the top 1% of applicants. this sounds like an energetic efforts. >> the last two names that you said underscores the whole thing. elon and vivek. they're raw energy. a determination. they both understand how to deal -- i think one of the things -- i mentioned this yesterday. for a long time, there's never been this effort by our government to really take care

of our money. they could always get more of us, would demand more of it. when you come from a business background, the first thing you learn is roi. return on investment. we're talking about finally a return on the investment on the hard work, the blood, sweat and tears of the american taxpayer. we have heard these stories from $5,000 toilet eats to the waste going on right now. everybody knows, you don't have to be high i.q. the lowest i.q. to the highest i.q. knows our government the is marbled wasteful spending to the tune of $2 trillion or more. >> gillian: we have to leave it there. thanks for taking time with us. >> see you later. >> john: thanks, charles. appreciate it. the ceo of the online betting outfit says he's home was raided following president-elect trump's win. we'll have that story plus this.

correctly predicting the outcome. trump's victory. coplan said "it's discouraging that the current administration would seek a last ditch effort to go after companies that they deemed to be associated with political opponents. the incumbents should do self-reflecting and recognize taking a more pro business may be what would have changed the fate of this election." to that, elon musk replied indeed! the doj declined a comment on the raid and the fbi did not get back to us with a comment. the agencies are reportedly investigating polymarket for accepting trades from users based in the united states. election betting was legalized in the u.s. this year, but polymarket is not approved with the commodities futures trading commission. the platform is not supposed to be available in the u.s. polymarket gained a lot of attention this election cycle

partly because they accent cryptocurrency for wagers and stirred up some concerns about conflating opinion polls with betting markets. but they say it's a great barometer for the election because the odds are based on people's hard-earneded dollars and after all it correctly predicted the outcome of last week's presidential election. back to you. >> gillian: thanks, lydia. john? >> john: all right. court breaking for lunn inch the daniel penny man slaughter trials. jurors heard new testimony on choke holds by the marine sergeant that trained penny. it comes on the heels of chocking testimony from a key witness that took the stand and admitted that he lied. let's bring in judge jeanine pirro, co host of "the five." so the witness today is the one that trained daniel penny in choke holds. what did his testimony bring? >> well, it was very interesting because you had this marine veteran who had taught danny

penny all of the choke holds. what was interesting is that everyone on the jury and in the courtroom learned there's a myriad of different chokes. you've got the air choke, you have the blood choke, the front, the rear, the side and the figure four variation. the more they talked about it, the more you started to say, gee this is what is normally done when you have an aggressor situation. so danny penny's own instructors said we taught him all of these chokes, and it looks like he was doing the figure four variation. i'm not going to get too specific here. you may recall in some of the videos that we've seen, you got danny penny with his left arm on his right bicep. that's a signal that he used on the platform and at the police department telling law enforcement that i was using the figure four variation. they come in, the prosecution

says hey, look, the blood choke is only 13 seconds. the guy is out. then they said, wait a minute president what about the air choke? that takes two to three minutes. how do you know this? based upon people we have in the marines, they tap when they feel like they may pass out. the bottom line nothing is real in terms of all of that discussion until we got to this particular situation. when the former marine said look, we put them in a chock hold to make them unconscious. until they're unconscious, they're a liability. that is exactly where the junior was left. he had to get him unconscious. until the end, he was flailing, which is why the other person jumped in to hold him down. >> john: in effect, gonzalez, had another key piece of testimony. he admitted that he lied to alvin bragg's office. he said i fabricated to the

assistant ada. i told them that as things were transpiring, i was there on site when everything went down. i told the ada that neeley had struck me first and then everything went down. why did he lie, judge? >> well, because he felt that he might be charged with some level of homicide. so he had to change his testimony. basically say look, you know, neeley hit me, so i had to help penny hold him down. then we find out he didn't walk out to the train until a few minutes after it stopped or a few seconds. i think the most important part, gonzalez doesn't matter anymore. other than they chose to indict danny penny and not this guy gonzalez who lead and reached an agreement with the prosecution. the most significant thing today was a choke holds are a normal part of restraining an aggressor and you do it until they're unconscious. we know that jordan neely was

not unconscious. that's why gonzalez got involved. we know he didn't pull at danny penny's arm. if he pulled at it, it would have meant the joke was so tight. he pulled to get away never pulling at penny's arms. in other words, it was not too much pressure to the throat. if the me comes on and i expect him to come on tomorrow and say anything about the trachea, that will be extremely relevant. they may make out this case, the defense, on the prosecution's case. >> john: we'll see how that proceeds. meantime, you're involved in a terrific special for fox nation. it's about susan smith that back in 1994 drowned here children in a lake in south carolina. let's play a lit clip from the special. let's see. >> is she changed? is she ready to return to society? by looking at her institutional

record of disciplinary actions, it's not way that i believe she would make parole. >> since susan has been incarcerated, i say her behavior has proved the fallacy of the jury's thought that she would sit and be remorseful. i think susan is remorseful that this occurred to her. i think she's remorseful how how it affected susan. >> john: she's up for potential parole here, judge. what do you find out in the special other than the fact that there's people that say don't let her out of jail? >> no, the special is incredible. they put together an incredible timeline of what has happened while susan smith has been in prison. remember, a 3-year-old and i believe a 14-month-old, she watched them die as her car went in to the river and she blamed someone else for doing it. she had affairs with correction officers, both of whom lost their jobs because of it. she's disciplined several times. this woman is an operator.

although it's been 30 years, she doesn't seem to be that remorseful about her kids. the father of the children is very upset about the fact that she may make parole and the hearing is next week. you have to watch the special. it's really good. this woman is some operators. >> john: he says 30 years later, he's not gotten fully past it either. he's move on with his life but still sits in his mind all the time. >> you would never expect anyone to. thank you. >> john: all right. on fox nation, judge jeanine pirro brings us the story of susan smith. thanks, judge. good to see you. >> thank you. >> john: gillian? >> gillian: the fbi says a potential terror attack in houston was averted following that the arrest of a 28-year-old suspect. investigators say that man bragged about wanting to plan a 9-11 style attack and he also offered his material support to isis. mike tobin has the details. what charges is he facing so far, mike? >> one couldn't of offering

material support to a terrorist organization, specifically isis. we're getting information fast here right now specifically from douglas williams, the fbi special agent. he called this a great day because a terror suspect has been taken off the streets of houston. this is a 28-year-old who had been on the fbi's radar since 2017. they interviewed him multiple times. williams said after october 7, he was inspired by that attack and his behavior trended towards violence. he jumped to what williams said was the top of the list of security threats. the decision was made last friday to go ahead and arrest him. here's handani. >> the agents directed mr. sayed several times to put his hand up. he ignored their commands. he threw an object from his hand to the ground. continuing to ignore commands, the defendant once again reached

out for an on and appeared to smash it on the ground. agents later determined the object he smashed was his cell phone. >> the cell phone is particularly relevant because a lot of the evidence they're talking about thus far really seems to be communication and pro isis propaganda. a lot of images that were shared, coordinated with a web designer apparently affiliated with isis. he expressed a desire to attack overseas. he expressed a desire to attack domestically according to the fbi. he talked about using explosive belts. that throws us back to the second palestinian intifada. the detention hearing is today, gillian. >> gillian: seems like a lot of the would-be terrorists are inclined to sharing their thinking and planning online with other people. thanks, mike, for the details.

>> got it. >> the president-elect, former president trump, his threat is not just towards new arrivals and undocumented families. his threats are also against black families. >> john: mayor brandon johnson accusing president-elect trump of being anti-black. chicago says the mayor should read the room on what voters wanted in the election. she's coming up next. >> gillian: president-elect trump promised to shake things up in washington. his latest cabinet picks shows he's following through on that. more ahead. “the darkness of bipolar depression made me feel like life was moving on without me. then i found a chance to let in the lyte.” discover caplyta. unlike some medicines that only treat bipolar i, caplyta is proven to deliver significant symptom relief from both bipolar i & ii depression. and in clinical trials,

johnson is saying he's going to not help with the crackdown on i'llegal immigration. he's calling president-elect trump a threat to black families. take a listen. >> we're going to defend the people of this city. his attack, let's be clear, the former president trump, the president-elect, his threat is not just towards new arrivals and undocumented families. his threats are also against black families. he has a vision to destroy public education. >> gillian: chicago residents have sued chicago over the mishandling of the crisis. kata, thanks for being here. i want your reaction to mayor johnson's comments about illegal immigration and what he's saying essentially is he's going to continue to protect illegal immigrants in the city from

federal agents despite the law, despite the incoming agenda of the trump administration. what do you say about that? >> well, what we're seeing is here in the state of illinois, you're seeing mayor johnson and governor priska that they're going to dig their heels in. both of them are having trouble looking at the voter turnout, looking at the numbers of people that voted republican. not all of those people voted republican because they were supporters of president trump. a lot of them voted republican simply because they did not like these policies that the democratic party is pushing. i think instead of digging their heels in especially in the midst of the budget crisis that we're in here in both the city of chicago and in the state of illinois, i think the mayor and governor prisker have to look.

we cannot afford to look and not be in president trump's good graces with the financial situation that we're in in this city. so to dig his heels in, if anybody is hurting black families and residents of the city of chicago, it's mayor brandon johnson. >> gillian: i want to check in with you. i know you have a lawsuit that you brought against the city accusing them of mishandling the migrant crisis to the detriment of the people that list there. what is the status of that today and what you hope to achieve? >> what basically happened, we got a stay from the court. what the judge told the city of chicago as well as the residents in the community is that as long as the mayor and his administration did not bring the migrants in to our park, then they would not move to make a judgment. so with him finding somewhere else to send the migrants, we were able to avert having to go

in to a long court battle. >> gillian: so now president-elect trump says that illegal immigration in american cities across the nation is something that he's going to be focuses on from day one in the oval office. what would you like to see as a first move coming out of the trump administration? >> one of the things i want to see as a first move is for him to send mr. holman to the city of chicago, to the state of illinois and remember that, you know, we like to call them migrants but at the end of the day, they're illegal immigrants. they are here illegally. if you want to be in this country, if you want to be in this city, you have to go through the proper channels to be here the way you're supposed to be here. if you're not here the way that you're supposed to be here legally, then i think that mr. holman has every right to come in to chicago, the state of illinois and these sanctuary cities where these people are

being housed. let me tell you something else that people fail to understand. when you are a sanctuary city, all it means is that there's some protection from ice. it does not mean that we have to financially support and house these people when they come here and put our city in the budget deficit we're in. the citizens of chicago are not happy about that, especially when you're asking taxpayers to pay more money for less services when our communities are still blighted and disininvested in. you have a mayor that says hey, listen, i'm here and i'm fighting for the people. right now everything that we have seems to be going to the migrants. you have our mayor who pushed for the chicago teachers union to wrap funding for migrant students. they want to give migrant students 2,000 per month stipend. not all students that may be suffering or standing in need, but just migrant students.

what in the world does that have to do with education and funding teachers? you tell me. >> gillian: well, cata, we wish you the best going forward with the suit, with the issue. we hope you stay in touch with us and come back. >> thank you for having me. >> gillian: john? >> it did affect us. i have a business right here in the corner on main and madison. we would have illegals just like walking around, you know. people didn't want to really stop because they were afraid. >> john: the migrant crisis shifting the political landscape, flipping counties along the boreder from blue to red. we'll check in one texas county. >> gillian: and now mortgage rates are on a six-week climb. what that means coming up. i got the power of 3. i lowered my a1c, cv risk, and lost some weight.

in studies, the majority of people reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. i'm under 7. ozempic® lowers the risk of major cardiovascular events such as stroke, heart attack, or death in adults also with known heart disease. i'm lowering my risk. adults lost up to 14 pounds. i lost some weight. ozempic® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes. don't share needles or pens, or reuse needles. don't take ozempic® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. stop ozempic® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or an allergic reaction. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. gallbladder problems may occur. tell your provider about vision problems or changes. taking ozempic® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may increase low blood sugar risk. side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. living with type 2 diabetes? ask about the power of 3 with ozempic®.
