see everyday, joining me now, chris, good morning to you appeared to now that elon musk and donald trump have teamed up, what does the future of space exploration look like under this incoming administration? >> i guess we will find out because the first trump administration, it is hard to argue the most consequential presidency for the space industry since probably john f. kennedy and the establishment of space for an art of medicine cords and reestablishment of the national space council, multiple space directives and really move things forward. what is interesting, prior to his election, donald trump did not talk about space and we have not heard about space plans coming into the second administration, which is why i say we will find out. >> todd: space equals military, you know that. president trump says we will lead the world and space exploration, what do you take that to mean specifically when

it comes to the military? >> well, the military and space are interesting because space by treaty cannot be militarized. and yet, we do have china being very active on the move taking out very important locations on the moon where natural space and where we operate communicationse satellites both chinese and russian satellites at potentially threatening the existence and operation of our systems, which is part of the reason why we have the space force building its own constellation satellites to try to create more resilient architecture. i think we will see increased space force budget and spacex activities and probably a move to the moon, which was a first term trump goal to put american boots on the moon the second term. he has a four year gap to make up the difference.

>> carley: wind we get a person back on the moon and mars and why is it important to do those things? >> the moon, geopolitical reasons to go back there and also a ton of natural resources, which if you believe the fact that the two, richest men in the world, elon musk and jeff bezos not been inked just in space but personal wealth to make mankindd interplanetary species kamala harris tinkle or jeff bezos to have millions of people living and working in space, you need those resources from the moon and other military bodies. likewise when you look at mars, a little bit more distant to look at the economic potential there. but at this point, but is more of printing foods on moon that it can be done and driving prestige that comes with that

type of activity. >> todd: chris, this is overwhelming to the average american and i hear space in my head explodes because it is so out there. so if elon musk and trump to accomplish space goals, what does that mean for average everyday american watching this with a cup of coffee in hand trying to figure out why does this matter to me? >> it does matter. people see it in their life and probably don't notice gps everything we try to navigate is derived from space. a lot of communication systems and critical infrastructure coach a but more close to home, it is startling. consumer see that service and enjoy it and find benefit from it. but i think the next 10-20 years, we will see wholesale change and the view how space impacts the economy in our daily life. as i speak today, we have four companies building private space stations , doesn't have missions

going to the moon. companies manufacturing pharmaceutical, and products, commercial products they can sell on earth. very early stages on that or to put at the end of t the day, a n of things to be done in space t. if you believe jeff bezos heavy manufacturing to move off the face of the earth and done in space and manufacturing on the ground. >> carley: it is interesting elon musk up with spending and we will see what he does with nasa and space for spirit jet those budgets can increase and something to watch. chris, have a great. fox weather alert, one person dead and hundreds of thousands as slams the west coast. >> todd: life-threatening flooding and blizzard conditions to that reexam. in the meantime powerful winds and downed trees and homes destroyed. >> carley: powerful windstorms to sweep across the u.s. this

police. he is held without bail. >> todd: while that career criminal out on the street despite multiple arrests, the manhattan d.a. consumed with donald trump who may have gotten a massive legal victory sentence for new york case could be postponed until 2029. a trump official telling "the that case is in shambles and ash heap of history a major victory for president trump. criminal -- brian, i look at this at more like a p.r. chess match at this point then illegal chess match. a statement from the trump team coach at the d.a. we are going after trump and will fight this case. so lately, i want to ask this, should trump want the sentencing to keep this case alive for the next four years, where should he want an immediate sentencing that provides the opportunity for him to appeal it now and end

it once and for all? >> hey, taught, great to be back. look, if i'm representing president trump i would file a motion to throw out the verdict based on the supreme court's ruling community. presidential immunity because remember, i would argue the only facts the jury decided tied trump to this alleged crime was the federal election, remember? that somehow, this was tied to influencing a federal election. and that falls under the supreme court's immunity ruling. so, i would file a motion now to try to get this verdict thrown out of court. if that doesn't work, obviously, you deal with this in 2029. but look, i would try to toss this whole thing out of court based on that ruling. >> todd: it but i believe they have tried that.

in order for this to reach the appellate stage, assuming arguments sake, judge merchan denies here a joke you have to be sentenced in order for this thing to ultimately be appealed and that is where the confusions end. jonathan turley says this creates a scenario where president trump is on a leash. interesting metaphor and eight president beholden to state and local officials whenever trump makes a new york decision if the case is active. your thoughts on that. >> look, he really is on a leash. i think the leash is getting longer and longer. look, at the end of the day, todd, i don't see any judge on the plan ever sentencing a president if you wait until 2029, a former president to jail on real late, let's it what it

is, a misdemeanor charge. and i think former presi president trump and president now, trump should forge ahead in the sentencing is now delayed until 2029. focus on doing his job. look, 2029, with the sentencing occurs and sentenced, for example, 30-60 days, it then he can appeal the sentence. he will get a bond, post bond, the out pending the appeal. by the time you get to 2029, todd, that entire climate of the country changes and i did not see this judge ever sentencing jail time. spain when he will be 83 years old and that needs to be mentioned by 2029. quickly before we let you go tammy annie trial and takes the witness stand revealing he was actually awarded humanitarian

service medal for relief efforts during hurricane florence. on the stand, one at the marine said you have to be someone who displays empathy above reproach to receive that metal. how important is that testimony to figure out daniel penny state of mind! >> i think it is a huge piece of evidence. because what daniel penny did -- this is what his argues are arguing, is heroic. this is somebody who stepped in and in the of danger poten potentially, other travelers on the subway and potentially saved lives. todd, at the end of the day, lawyers have to make the argument in closing, we cannot penalize somebody for stepping in and being heroic when we now live in a society where most people stand and watch. we have people across the country that will watch crimes

occurring. they will take videos of it and laugh at it while people are getting killed. here you have tammy stepping in and doing what he thinks is the right thing to do. that is the argument. look, i think he has a great chance of being acquitted to. >> todd: thank you for your time, carley over to you. speech at the lincoln riley murder trial resumes with accused migrant killer reportedd venezuelan gang tren de aragua. "the new york post" obtained dhs memo that says that by linking expanded to 16 states across the country and the memo stating "a population of venezuelan nationals increased potential for violent tda migrants is highly probable." charles marino former national security advisor and secret service agent and joins me now. thank you for joining us here to pay are here in the presence is growing but how worried should people be about this?

>> very as tren de aragua becomes a greater portion of the population and so will the reports of violent interactions with this by linking based out of venezuelan. after the final months of the biden administration, they will continue to grow in numbers and continue to expand around the country here and americans will, and fortunately coach, the targeted. we will hear many more stories. it is simply astonishing to me, carley, you have an administration under biden that allowed, designed, created all the conditions for this crisis to occur. you have ten to 15 million illegal migrants unvented into the country. they are telling the american public how dangerous that situation was? a place in the face of common sense. we will change they want the trump administration will change that meredith and we will have

those in the country illegally, those committing crimes on the run and looking over their shoulders. >> carley: charles how do you do that? donald trump shares your outrage and what is going on right now. many enters office, he will want to catch these people, identified them first, catch them before deported. how do you go about doing that? >> it has to be prioritized based on the level of threat, national security concerns, gangs like tren de aragua and ms-13 and down the line it will go to those not showing up for their immigration hearings, et cetera. but what i can tell you is i.c.e. will focus on where these violent gangs and criminals are going to be protected. that will be in sanctuary cities. what the sanctuary cities will find since they will not cooperate with i.c.e. and other federal agencies, they will see a greater representation of

law enforcement within their communities. they are doing nothing in the cities and states that protect these criminals and to protect their citizens. they were law enforcement is prevented from cooperating with i.c.e. to prioritize and remove these violent offenders. so i.c.e. will have to sent greater numbers into the communities. trump needs to use the power of the purse. that is my recommendation. if they don't want to participate overall public safety for citizens and states, they should not receive federal tax money in the form of public safety. this is hundreds of millions of dollars. >> carley: on that point despite trump's take great, clear repudiation of the open border policies, los angeles became a sanctuary city and many would be surprised they are not already one pair to they finally caught up to perception they're here are two of the vote 13-0 ae council members that harden their defense as defenses

against mass deportation. but when it comes to deportation, listen to what tom homan is saying donald trump's priority and the people he wants to get a that country first. >> out of the gate, national security threats and what politician i want public safety to remain to my community. give me a break! >> todd: to. >> carley: what does los angeles do here? with that in mind? >> in the grand scheme of things nothing. the sanctuary leaders are speaking as if a position of power when they really have none. unfortunately for them, immigration law is a federal responsibility and enforcement of such will be handled ultimately by federal authorities. so what they are doing a slightly delaying the inevitable. tom homan is right, they will make up for that discrepancy with lack of support of state

and local law enforcement and similar federal agents in. he will get the job done. >> carley: inevitable that they are telling could save lives. charles, thank you for joining us. have a great day and we love your insight is always. president electronic has name commerce secretary as he fills up his economic team. >> todd: american companies gearing up for a trade war with china. cheryl casone and how businesses are preparing and rnc cochair, lara trump, on the president's cabinet choices. ♪ ♪

his side are people in key positions. he can't do it alone. he meets his team around him and strategically taking these people to do just that, be by his side so when he leaves the white house and four years, this country is set up properly. things are back on the right track. my gosh, we have gone through the past four years and people are barely surviving, barely getting by and on the verge of world war iii. many people as chosen by donald trump in these key positions to make sure his agenda and the american people mandated november 5th is actually set forward. we are hopeful to see that and senate republicans have taken note, this is what the american people demand and this is what they should deliver exactly as donald trump as chosen. >> every term that pops up in the news people are not familiar with that term is recess appointments. what that would do is give the president the power to adjourn congress and the senators to go home and he would appoint

cabinet officials himself. to the concern is president trump as that in january, democrat president when he enters office in the future he would did that as well. do you think the recess appointment thing will actually happen? >> i hope we don't need to get there. and i hope enough republican senators who say yes, we understand the importance of these choices. we will go ahead and confirm these people. i think they have the ability to do that prior to january. the speed with which you have seen donald trump choose key positions really should signal what he wants to do jan january 20th. he does not want to waste time that get to work day one servant the american people and making sure this country is turned back around and things start working again in america. we have so much work ahead of us. so much has happened the past four years that has been detrimental. tell forget how quick will be started to see things move the right direction his first term

faces. well served and may have done this already. reach out to sarah huckabee sanders and kayleigh mcenany our colleague over the next two months. former white house press secretaries because they both experienced in a hostility on a daily basis during the trump administration. and i'm sure regardless if you are male or female mental toughness to this job that has to be established. as we saw out of karoline leavitt she would go on to cnn and msnbc during this campaign and what i always noticed was she is well-prepared razor sharp on the issues. the issues americans care about most. the economy, inflation and the border. bringing peace overseas. makes those with optimism and smile and authenticity. that's something that can't be taught. so, she is going to do just fine. that is my prediction. save the tape. >> todd: caroline and kayleigh working together in trump one. i'm sure they will lean on each other throughout the process. speaking of older president and very former president bill clinton says americans are more

they don't like seeing female boxers like we saw in pairs in the olympics getting pummeled by men pretending to be women. they don't like seeing young girls humiliated so long to get to high level in high school and college in sports only to see somebody up on the blocks getting a gold medal who they know has a chemical advantage. so, look. if you look at exit polls in the key swing states. the trans issue was a top issue. and he knows that you can't be the party that champions women as democrats have always said and then just say you know what? title 9 screw it. let men compete in women's sports, for example. >> a republican woman who doesn't like that stuff, especially a politician would definitely say huh-uh not going to happen under my watch if you elect me president. >> carley: incoming fec chair brendan carr made news over kamala harris having on got to
