painful under the eighth amendment defendant must come forward with an alternative method. he hasn't done so thus foreclosing his claim. nine inmates on idaho's death row. the last execution in 2012. the last ruling kohberger convicted at his trial in august could be sentenced to death. we haven't heard from the families of all four murder victims. some parents released a statement when we heard of the motions being denied in regards to the death penalty, we were overjoyed. justice is moving forward and one day in the not so distant future hopefully it will be served. this case is set to have another hearing in late january on motions to have the challenge to the search warrants in hopes of getting all the evidence against him thrown out. another long shot, sandra. >> sandra: we'll keep watching

that. dan springer for us. >> we've been called election deniers, liars, did i leave anything out? we the people of bucks county are fed up. yes, you are hearing us loud and clear. these are elected officials who blatantly admitted to disobeying the law. how can we have faith to up hold the law again? the answer is we cannot and they must resign immediately. >> i have to tell you standing here today listening to all these patriots and looking at how many people came out something is wrong with the way we're conducting elections in this county. >> gillian: name calling. there was a wide meeting angry with the ballot counting. i'm sandra smith. bill and dana have the day off. gillian great to be with you. >> gillian: we're very happy you made it all in one piece.

>> sandra: every morning is a battle, gillian. >> gillian: the pennsylvania recount is moving ahead moving forward. republican dave mccormick is maintaining his lead. incumbent democrat bob casey not conceding just yet. with that recount underway, bucks county officials say they will now comply with the state supreme court order to throw out illegal ballots after a county commissioner said this a few days ago. listen. >> i think we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country and people violate laws any time they want. so for me, if i violate this law it is because i want a court to pay attention to it. and there is nothing more important than counting votes. >> sandra: nate foye has more. >> this commissioner apologized yesterday claimed her comments were taken out of context and that she meant to refer to provisional ballots rather than

the mail-in ballots the state supreme court already ruled on. >> it was genuinely not the best words. i would do it all again. i feel terrible about it. i should have been more clear. please, i will be more clear in the future. >> but bucks county residents heard the commissioner say she would break state law and count ineligible votes. when she tried connecting her comments to abortion rights the crowd was not having it. >> when i inartfully spoke and used the word precedent talking about provisional ballots i was referring to the united states supreme court and the precedent that has been lost on many issues including roe v. wade. >> those boos were only the beginning. yesterday's meeting people accused their commissioners of cheating in the election and targeting conservatives. one man referenced president biden's comment calling trump supporters garbage. listen to this.

>> do you need to resign today. you need to be fired. we are your boss. you are a bane, a stain on this country. the world is watching. >> compared to all of you, being called garbage doesn't seem to be so bad. >> meanwhile in philadelphia city commissioners said they would follow but disagreed with the state supreme court ruling to only count mail-in ballots dated correctly. >> we know mail ballots that we get on time and we know the mail ballots we don't get in time and therefore i believe in my opinion that that ballot should count. >> pennsylvania governor josh shapiro reminded all election officials this week to follow state law. while three counties have already finished their recounts. senator-elect mccormick and bob casey gained a single vote. some counties are still completing their initial count because of legal challenges to

provisional ballots. senator casey is asking for more than 1200 ballots to count across nine lawsuits. mccormick wants thousands of votes removed from the count but that hasn't been ruled on by pennsylvania courts. >> sandra: that's a lot. nate foye, thank you. >> gillian: quite a story. joining us now is bucks county committee chair. let's play a little more of what commissioner said in that apology. i want to get your reaction. >> last thursday, when i spoke at the meeting that you are all here about, the passion in my heart got the best of me and i apologize again for that. >> gillian: do you think it was passion in her heart that led her to say that court orders in america are meaningless? >> i can't really speak for her intent. i only know what she said was so offensive to so many of us. absolutely you have to follow the law in this country. even if you don't like it.

that was her premise. she didn't like it. therefore she would not follow it. so her apology was accepted by the people but not believed that the sincerity was there. >> gillian: you really think the apology was accepted? >> some people definitely did. some people mentioned. some of the speakers said that. for the most part the majority felt it was a way to try to calm down the masses because there were a lot of people. an overflow room packed, the room that you could see on the camera was packed. there were a lot of people very unhappy with her. >> gillian: take a listen to this meanwhile. some pushback from the other side democrat josh shapiro weighing in on everything that went down. listen. >> i would note by the way that dave mccormick, when he was a failed candidate for senate two years ago, also chose not to waive the recount in that race. that will continue to play out. the most important thing is that the will of the people be respected. that all the votes are counted

and that ultimately a winner is determined based on the will of the people. >> gillian: what is your reaction specifically to his comment that dave mccormick's team last time around made the same exact decision that senator casey's team is making now. >> that's not my understanding. i was told they did not. i don't know where he is getting that. i don't recall a recount. the state mandates it. the candidate may say no. i heard people saying including dave he did not do that. i would have to check further. that's the first i'm hearing the governor say anything about it. he waited until the supreme cou ruling to say yes, you have to follow the law. >> gillian: what would you like to see the governor do or say now to try and -- i don't know if it's possible to sort of smooth over the situation now. a lot of damage has already been done. presumably we get the results of the recount soon and this will be put to bed.

what would you like to hear him say? >> i wish he said earlier that he supports the sup reams. everyone knows the law is the law. when they first did this these four comments his comment was they're damned if they do and damned if they don't. after the hoopla and supreme court came out again he then became on the side of the law. that's what i would like him to do. be with the law, not his opinion. >> gillian: here is an editorial quote from the national review. they say today bob casey jr. remains in the race and stakes his hopes on a statewide recount likely to put fewer than 100 votes from one column to another. he is humiliating his own party shamelessly inverting argument they have lodged against others who refuse to accept legitimate outcomes. >> to some degree. this is a large number we're

talking about, up to 17,000 or something the last i heard. that's very difficult to get on a recount. i think people have seen this in the past. on the recounts that have occurred, it has not changed and not changed any election ever. therefore it is almost like stop beating a dead horse. at some point you have to say okay, i lost, let's move on. he hasn't done that yet. >> gillian: we have had other republican electoral analysis even if every one of those 16 or 17,000 votes actually went to senator casey, he still wouldn't come out on top. it all doesn't matter anyway. pat, we have to leave it there. great to hear from you today. thank you for taking time with us. >> my pleasure, glad to be with you. >> sandra: president biden facing new scrutiny for hiding and largely avoiding the media as he approaches the end of his

term. alexandria is here. >> president biden had no public events on his schedule yesterday and but held a private ceremony to bestow the presidential medal of freedom to a pro-abortion activist. the press didn't find out it happened until after it happened. the recipient is a long-time president of planned parenthood. was it private because of her health? she is suffering from the same kind of brain tumor that took the life of the president's son beau biden. -that saddened many in the pro-life community. "washington post" article yesterday wrote calling on president biden to resign. he wrote this by nate silver. any particular reason to assume biden is competent to be president right now? it's very difficult job and

dangerous rule. extremely high stakes decisions in ukraine. he should resign and let harris serve out the last two months. >> mr. president, happy early birthday. mr. president, will you please talk to us? mr. president, president biden, please. >> as you can hear by the end of president biden's end of g20 reporters were asking him to stop and talk to the press. some even held up signs out there hoping he would read them and respond. reaching vice president harris right now would require a 4700 mile trip. she arrived in hawaii on tuesday for a personal vacation with second gentleman doug emhoff. harris has been largely out of sight since her election loss two weeks ago.

now the president is here at the white house today and will be holding an event with the boston celtics following their championship win, sandra. >> sandra: we'll be watching for that. thank you. >> he made the choice to take laken's life and destroy ours. he showed no mercy on laken when she was begging for her life. >> i plead to protect the world from this evil person by sentencing him to prison for life. >> gillian: the family of laken riley pleading for the defendant to get life sentence without parole. has russia crossed a new red line with its latest attack on ukraine? what it could mean for the ongoing war. the leaders of doge are weighing out cost cutting plan for the government. how much will they actually be

>> sandra: the international criminal court issued warrants for netanyahu and galiant accusing the two of crimes against humanity and war crimes for their roles in the conflict in gaza. icc issued a warrant for a hamas military chief israel claims to have killed earlier this year. neither israel nor the u.s. recognize the jurisdiction of

the icc which doesn't have its own police to enforce the warrants. gillian. >> gillian: there is this. ukraine's air force claiming russia lost an intercontinental ballistic missile this morning known as the icbm. the first time that weapon has been used in this war. the kremlin not offering a comment today. trey yingst is on the ground in kiev with all the details. hi, trey. >> gillian, good morning. ukrainian officials say overnight russia launched an icbm into ukraine targeting the cit city of nip row and raises questions that icbm can carry nuclear weapons. u.s. officials don't believe it was an icbm but a ballistic missile. the ukrainians have yet to update their comment and russians haven't commented on

the strike that injured two people or seven hypersonic cruise missiles they fired into ukraine. ukrainian forces are targeting deeper into russia using long range missiles. overnight the biden administration approved the transfer of anti-personnel mines to ukraine. the moves are seen by the russians as crossing a red line prompting officials in kiev to brace for an increase in missile and drone attacks. fox news visited a civilian emergency response center to see how the ukrainian capital is preparing for thieves attacks. the city's mayor says air defense is still working well but ukraine is fighting for its survival. >> almost three years later more than 1,000 days into this conflict, invasion, how would you describe the current state? >> it is difficult. difficult to explain have the feeling it is one long, long, long day and fighting to survive and we are are fighting for our future to be part of the

european family, to be a part of the democratic world. is difficult time because we do everything to be strong. russians pay attention for strong opposition. >> today was the first snowfall of the winter in the ukraine capital, a reminder how difficult this winter will be for ukrainian civilians as russians continue to target this country's power grid. >> gillian: trey yingst in kiev. >> we will take aim at the overgrown fourth branch of government and restore self-governance in america again. massive federal spending in a way that has never happened in our generation. >> gillian: ramaswamy casting the department of government efficiency as historic opportunity as they publish their plan to reform the federal government.

one of doge's first steps could be calling for an end to remote work across all agencies. we have the president of nbd capital and chief market strategist. what are they going to do and how much change are they really bringing are? >> i love this on so many levels. everyone thought they would be all show and no go. they laid out a concrete plan and precedent to act and areas they will act in. if there are two people that know how to fire and cut it is trump and elon. he has done it at x. there is a lot of areas. i like -- if you are tough on bureaucracies there is a lot of waste they can cut. 500 billion plus immediately. that's a big add to the economy. >> sandra: i want to put up on the screen following supreme court's guidance is the headline in the "wall street journal" will reverse a decades long executive power grab they say.

cutting federal government down to size. pursuing several major reforms including administrative reductions, cost savings. people are listening when you start talking about this. they talk about driving change through executive action based on existing legislation. their top goal is to eliminate the need for its existence by july 4th, 2026. a huge task. can they do it? >> i think they can. they set a deadline. government is full of people that kick the can down the road. businessmen and women no. i have to afford it and make changes and pivot. they have set themselves up for success and now they have to deliver. there is plenty of opportunity. the results speak more than the words. >> sandra: musk keeps talking about the size of government and number of federal employees and all the empty buildings in washington, d.c. where are all these people? this is part of the quote about ending remote work.

requiring that. it would be voluntary terminations that we welcome. if they don't want to show up american taxpayers shouldn't pay them for the covid-era privilege of staying home. this would be massive change. there are a lot of empty office buildings in d.c. >> massive changes but restores the employee/employer relationships. these people will be promoted to better opportunities in the private sector. it innovates and faster. you make more money in the public sector rather than government. >> sandra: here is what senator elizabeth warren is saying, for example. >> why is government efficiency a bad thing? >> he is talking about doing $2 trillion cuts and taking away people's social security in order to be able to do more giveaways for billionaires. >> where do you propose the cuts

start? >> i propose that billionaires give back the money that they are now taking in giant tax cuts. >> sandra: her take is start with cutting elon musk and ramaswamy. >> this is the prime example why we need to teach financial literacy in high school. taking back from the billionaires? the top 1% pay over 50% of the taxes in the country. the idea of paying your fair share. the way to balance the budget is not take money back from bill airs who earned it in a fair way but eliminate big government to allow the economy to grow the government. >> harris: trump is eyeing a crypto czar. >> bill: i am coming over to the camp believing it will be a

thing in his administration. put policies in place. i have a speculation in crypto. i think this proves it will be somewhat of a priority for the administration. i didn't think it was previously. >> sandra: a hot topic for many people and interested to see where he goes with this. good to see you. >> remove criminal aliens decreased 74%. for any governor or mayor who doesn't want public safety threats taken out of their communities you need to resign. your responsibility is to protect those communities. >> gillian: that's tom homan sending a warning to politicians in sanctuary cities who say they will continue to to refuse to comply with deportation efforts during president trump's second term. plus this. ice agents arrested three illegal migrants in massachusetts. two of them are now charged with raping children. one convicted already of committing the same crime in brazil. we have the governor's response for you coming up next.

>> i will never forget her and keep her memory alive. i hope justice is served for her, not only because i'm her father, but because she deserves it. >> sandra: the judge in the courtroom feeling the emotions of that moment admitting there is no such thing as closure in a tragedy like this. >> governors and mayors saying they stop tom homan and president trump. shame on you. your responsibility is to protect your community. they will not stop us. i will do this job. men and women from ice are going to do the job. you won't stop us. a word of advice. if you impede us there will be consequences. >> sandra: that's the incoming trump team throwing down the gauntlet. tom homan is warning sanctuary cities not to get in the way of trump's mass deportation plan. democrats are vowing to fight the program until the bitter end. joining us now is former chicago

police chief garry mccarthy. the perfect guest to talk to us about this today in the wake of the president-elect's touting of plans for mass deportation a lot of cities now are trying to bat ondown the hatches making moves that they believe will help prevent those policies from taking effect in those cities, new york, boston, denver, l.a. here is what chicago's mayor said two days ago. >> he is a threat to everything that is sensible. stop playing games with the people of this country. i understand that we have a challenge with immigration policy in this country. pass laws. don't make threats. >> gillian: what do you make of that? >> i'm astounded by the tone deaf arrogance of the democratic leadership in this country. they just got their butts handed

to them and while they are pointing fingers at each other they are doubling down on the same policies that got their butts kicked. there is a saying when you are in hole stop digging. they like to use gas lighting telling us we aren't really seeing what we're seeing. brandon johnson, pick a policy and we were just talking about laken riley. i lost my daughter to fentanyl back in 2022. same problem, same result. my daughter is gone and at the end of the day they came through the southern border. don't tell us the southern border has been closed. it hasn't been closed. people like this, people like this ibarra clown who actually got a flight to georgia on the american taxpayers' dime is overwhelming. i can't believe that they are not hearing what is going on. brandon johnson just achieved

something that i didn't think was possible. he got a 50 to 0 no regarding his budget. i don't know how you can do that. at least one person will think that you are making some sense but 50 to 0. he has been asked not to go to two the last two police officers who got murdered in the line of duty. police officer getting shot at five times the rate or shot at is 330 officer got shot at since 2020 in the city of chicago. number of them have been killed. a number of them have been wounded. in the last three days there are three on duty, off duty or retired police officers shot in chicago. brandon johnson can't have a conversation without saying black and brown people and slavery all at the same time. yet at the same time he is defunding the police in those neighborhoods. he eliminated one.

i listen to black and brown people raging about that. he is taking resources away from the very people who he is alleging to try to save. and fortunately i believe this guy is a one-term mayor. he could go down as the worst ever in the city of chicago. >> gillian: other cities, gary, did have success during the first trump term trying to deter the president, the former president's plans. they obstructed ice. so a lot of folks are now saying they think given the mandate the current president -- the incoming president now has maybe the scene will unfold differently this time. we'll track it. love to have you back. thank you so much. >> my pleasure gillian, thank you. >> gillian: you bet. ♪

we're also reporting right now the senate -- fox digital exclusive -- the senate majority leader chuck schumer reached an agreement with republicans allowing president trump to fill four higher tier circuit court nominations if republicans allow four district court nominations to go forward. you look at the judiciary committee meeting this morning. president-elect trump is not happy that biden nominated judges continue to make it acrows the finish line. for lifetime appointments. the biden administration still and democrats have the senate majority technically. trump says confirmation needs to stop and counting on republicans to make it sfop. -- two judges were appointed yesterday. they say the judges are qualified. republicans say they are too liberal on a wide range of subjects. republicans are doing whatever possible to try to slow down the

confirmation vote. the problem for republicans not all members are showing up. a biden judge was confirmed because senators cruz and mike braun were not present. they eventually made it back to the capitol but missed the earlier vote. schumer expected republican roadblocks over the next several weeks but confident democrats can continue to work in confirmations. biden has 220 judges confirmed and nominated more than 260. getting another 40 confirmed is unlikely in the next now less than two months. the problem for democrats if they need a tiebreaking vote, it is vice president kamala harris. she is in hawaii on vacation. we're told she could get on a flight back to washington if necessary to help break the tie and give another judge a push across the finish line. these numbers are ever evolving and democrats want to get as many as possible before the trump administration. >> gillian: which they have said openly there is no surprise, no secrets there and harris would,

of course, have to be in person in order to break that tie. hawaii is not so close to washington if you are looking to jump on a flight. don't know if you can do it. >> joe manchin and kyrsten sinema. they typically vote with democrats and sometimes with republicans and throws off a total. >> gillian: thank you. >> sandra: jaguar vehicles represent a high standard for luxury and have for a long time. ads are no different until now. this commercial aired over two decades ago. this is what they are now airing. ♪ >> many others are baffled. why they wouldn't include a car in the ad. elon musk is asking do you sell

cars? co-host of "fox & friends" weekend will cain. thank you for joinings. it begs the question, i don't think i saw a car in that ad. >> what are you selling? it is worthwhile and rational to say car manufacturers have often sold something other than the car. jaguar is a luxury brand. if unreliable. it sold aspiration. don draper. they sold sex through the vehicle of a car. what is jaguar selling to you here? it is not aspiration. they are selling something that first of all is unoriginal. it looks like an ad from the 80s. it went out of style five years ago. what are they selling? something cliche and passe. >> sandra: perhaps that's what is happening here they are trying to play to a completely

different audience. this is how they explain. a bran is a bold and imaginative reinvention. it has attracted attention and debate. the brand reveals only the first step in this exciting new era and look forward to sharing more on jaguar's transformation in the come days and weeks. they tout it as a win. >> proud of your pronunciation. but yeah, i mean, you would think that jaguar would follow learn the lesson of bud lite. campaign for kamala harris, disney, any of the string services that have not catered to their audience but a small segment of their ad department. it will be a failure like all the other athames in businesses. >> sandra: let's talk the trump

she is five years behind. like a trend that went out of style. the trend is believing that every athlete has to live up to a political litmus test. some of these guys who are probably following a trend and know it's fun to do the dance. the truth is i think it's a release. i see trump gear on sale at laguardia airport. people are coming out of the closet. it is a coming out party of people i won't be browbeat or afraid. i won't be lectured to any more by the likes of nancy armor. i will have fun and let you know what i believe about america. that dance is cathartic and letting off steam and support for trump. >> sandra: to take pen to paper and say that people didn't understand what they were voting for. it is basically saying that she knows better than you how you should vote. it is incredible. will, good to see you. thank you very much. gillian. >> gillian: jd vance on the hill
