>> welcome back, everybody. i really hope you're not watching this show at some airport gate and your flight is delayed, but you know, viewers are viewers, so we'll take what

we can get and hope we can get you there faster with handy tips how to handle the storm-related delays. 80 million americans are hitting the roads and skies this week, some who want to fly, they're having a devil of a time and let's get the latest from brandy campbell from sarasota, florida. >> hey, neil, many travelers are headed to the state of florida and triple-a says four or the top 10 destinations are in this state. something to be aware of if you're headed to the florida beaches, the presence of red tide. i want to give you a look at the beaches. a beautiful day and people are enjoying it, but red tide, known as a harmful bloom has been detected in some water ways. here in lido key, it's low level detected. and medium levels have been found in a few spots north of us.

in past years like in 2021, it was in high levels and caused fish kills. and caused respiratory issues if you were in the area. so far not getting reports of that and health experts say it's nothing to freak out over yet, but something to be mindful of. right know you, we do have some active weather that could be impacting your trips on the road. the system that brought the snow to the northeast yesterday is now off shore and bringing rain to the new england area, and snow in the mountains of vermont and new hampshire. so drivers you have to take it slow. when it comes to flights, the same could cause the system at boston international airport with the potential for visibility issues and wind. the west coast is dealing with the tail end of an atmospheric river that brought on heavy rain and strong wind. san francisco's airport could see visibility issues today causing some delays, and, neil,

going forward into thanksgiving week, our fox weather forecast sensor, they are keeping an eye on some potential issues with weather, back to you. neil: all right. in the meantime, brandy, good job covering the sleet and the snow -- wait, you're not. you're near an ocean. and you richie deserve it. >> it's kind of chilly. neil: rub it in. and have a great job. and have a great thanksgiving. it's kind of chilly. rick reichmuth, he said it would be chilly, icy, disturbances, and how widespread is this and how widespread does it get. >> let me say, brandy is normally in front of big things that have been destroyed and deserves a beach. neil: a little bit of a break. >> i would say over the last 45 to 60 days aside from the hurricanes that we've had, we've had a calm weather

pattern across the country and travel had been looking great and all of that just changed from our first significant storm that we've seen in the northeast in the last 45 days, we had drought that exploded across the northeast and we had fires, especially right here across into northern new jersey, in the new york area and over the last two days we've had a lot of rain and snow and in fact, rainfall totals across parts of long island, just over two inches, central park over an inch and a half and that's so welcome. i know. >> you're thinking, rain, we need it. sno no snowfall where we have the fires, and that's going to help. the other thing that the storm did was strong enough that it changed our overall weather pattern and i think now we'll see things become much more active. this here is tomorrow, and that

storm is gone and west coast is that activity and this storm here, that is a monday rain maker, not a huge rain maker, but it will cause some problems if monday is your travel day say from atlanta towards the mid atlantic, even into tuesday is going to be windy. wednesday, obviously, the big travel day, and we have a new storm across parts of the south again. more rain, more wind, snow across parts of the plains. and this isn't the worst storm we've ever seen on the wednesday before thanksgiving, but it will be somewhat disruptive and look what happens here on thanksgiving day. we've got rain across the eastern seaboard. we've got snow across the interior sections of the northeast, so we're getting into this active pattern and the last thing i'd say by the time we get to sunday, we have another storm developing in that same spot. so, hit and miss, three storms we're going to watch over the next week are going to cause some problems, but not so much so that you're not going to get there. you're going to be patient along the way. neil: got it, my friend. rick reichmuth on that.

let's say you are stuck at a gate and your plane has been delayed or canceled, god forbid. and steering us through this and works for him. but it doesn't work for me, but that's another story. and lee, people get frustrated, the last second a connection gets through, not going to make my plane, canceled, what do they do? >> number one, don't panic and realize that things are probably going to happen if you're travelling in this week in particular. be patient like i always say, get to the airport early, if things go awry and you get delays or cancellations, try to change your flight on the airline app so download the app for the particular airline that you're flying that day because it's easier than calling or surely, waiting in line at the airport. be proactive and again, just be patient and go in with the mindset that things probably

will happen. >> when you say early, what is your definition of early? >> the experts say two hours, i never actually do that because i'm on tv and i'll get there two hours ahead of time when everyone's travelling. >> all right, but you'll also talk not too long ago about whatever time you're trying to get out. it's best early morning, than not, because things sort of stack up, right? >> yeah, if you take the first flight out in the morning, i'm one of those people who don't mind the 6 a.m. flight because you have the whole day. if your 6 a.m., 7 a.m. flight is canceled. you have the best chance of getting that out that particular day. whereas if you fly at 8 p.m., and that flight is canceled you'll wait until the next day and get a hotel the whole deal. neil: i don't know if my wife has ever seen 6 a.m., but thank you for passing that along. what about how crowded they are. you hear about the fights that are, you know, picking up on flights, not all, i don't want to, you in, bash it, but over luggage and people now are allowed to bring virtually

entire thanksgiving meal on the plane with them in a carry on. >> people are creative, a little while bringing on peacocks. but if you can spill it, spread it, spray it, you can't bring it on. if it's solid bring it on. as i say don't check a bag if you don't have to, but don't bring things that would make you have to check a bag if you don't have to because that gives the airline more of a chance to lose your luggage. neil: you know, you mentioned the lost luggage thing that that is spiking again. i don't know whether it's all the people are flying and it's just the raw numbers that are spiking in a percentage terms and might not be that much out of the norm, but that gets people very nervous when they give up the idea of the carry-on and they just trust that the baggage will be on the plane they're getting on and be at baggage claim they're

getting to. is that a legitimate concern? >> sure, you never know, i've lost luggage a few times and only checked luggage a few times. people are using air tags, i think they're awesome. you can be in charge of your luggage, even if it's lost, instead of asking the airlines where is my luggage, you'll know where it is. if you're trying to get to houston, but your luggage is in kansas city, you'll know that and gives you power over the airline and you'll find your luggage, where if you don't, you're at the mercy of the airlines, which nobody likes. >> spirit airline fought for bankruptcy this year, and i understand that all flights and commitments and tickets are going to be honored, but scares a lot of spirit holders. earlier in the week some of them were trying to switch flights. what do you do in an event like that? >> you know, with airlines, that's not super uncommon to file for bankruptcy because things keep going. they keep flying and with spirit, that's what's happening right now.

people are still able to get in their flights and still fulfilling most of their commitments. so, i wouldn't like panic or anything like that. but the truth is, if you're flying spirit i would probably reconsider what you're flying anyway. neil: wild stuff. lee, be safe, be well, thanks for the tips, we always near to hear that. eventually i think what lee is getting at, you'll get to your destination one way or the other. it's hopeful. once you do, you will be ready to shop and we're told that next friday is going to be the black friday shopping day of the millennium. i added that because they really overhype these things. but shoppers are very, very active and they are very much spending big time. we'll explore why after this. ♪ ♪ but home is also your body.

>> all right. they're bad enough on their own, these missiles that russia has been launching into ukraine. they're capable of carrying nuclear weapons and he's reminding people what russia is capable of. and lifting oil prices largely on fears and rattling n.a.t.o. members. stephanie bennett has more from london. >> putin says that russia will ramp up the production of so-called unstoppable hypersonic ballistic missiles and president zelenskyy says it's clear in this war. putin says that they were escalating toward war after they allowed to hit russia with long range missiles, something that zelenskyy had been asking permission for for weeks in response, and warned the best that moscow would strike back

and it has by firing a hypersonic medium range ballistic missile. putin claims that no one in the world has no search weapons and warned more could follow and head of the forces says the new missile can be hit with nuclear or conventional warheads and reach targets across europe with no means of intercepting it, a senior source told reuters ukraine has lost over 40% of the territory in russia's kursk region it got in august. and after wave after wave of assaults. and soon counter back against ukraine soon as well. n.a.t.o. and ukraine are expected to hold an emergency talks, that should take place on tuesday. neil. neil: stephanie, thank you for that. stephanie, bennett in london.

to chad pergram on capitol hill, homeland security and fbi refusing to testify about this country. >> two witnesses, two hearings, two days, two cancellations. fbi director christopher wray and homeland security mayorkas, lawmakers are fuming. >> we need an explanation for this morning's cancellation. i definitely want to hear from them. >> before he had the top job, alejandro mayorkas served as a secret secretary. >> mayorkas is on the way out and reported that the fbi

director may be on his way out and they probably simply don't want to subject themselves to the circus that has become congressional hearings. >> lawmakers offered a closed session to mayorkas and wray, but they did not bite. >> gary peters took aim at wray, refusal to testify will only increase concerns people have been security and characterized it as a blow to trust. former michigan representative mike rogers wants to take wray's job at the fbi. >> people have lost faith in the fbi and then don't know it. somebody like me, i can restore that faith. >> and incoming president trump could fire wray, and they believe the calendar explains the no-shows. >> that's what they've been doing the last four years is running out the clock. we're accustomed how they stonewall and obstruct.

>> worries about terrorism often spike around the holidays. chad pergram, fox news. neil: thank you, it is the holidays and you're intrigued to do some shopping and most americans are. not all retailers are benefitting. there's target which disappointed and the stock tumbled this week and then there's walmart on fire because it gets you, apparently. the former ceo of walmart on that after this. lowe's knows when it comes to the holidays everything has to be seamless. save on lg's first ever zero-clearance refrigerator that has near flush installation for the ultimate built-in look. save at lowe's now during our black friday buildup event in store and online. ha, ha, what a hit! and if you don't have the right auto insurance coverage, the cost to cover that... might tank your season. ♪ so get allstate, and be better protected from mayhem, like me.

there's, of course, ai technology and vr technology and if you try that, my best suggestion is have a strong stomach. >> i had a big breakfast and this could end not very well. ♪ >> goggle time. o ooh. i survived. >> put this on you. >> oh. not good. and then there's a twist on an old favorite, the zero gravity wheel. in this case, see-through glass so you can see the riders pinned against the wall. no thank you. neil, back to you. neil: no thank you is right,

ashley. a brave man indeed. ashley webster on that. back to the more traditional concepts, you might notice that target this past week indicated things aren't that robust and doesn't see in terms of guidance things getting more robust. and bill simon is the ceo. and a lot of retailers seem to be on fire and gap with surprising numbers. not everyone, what is the common theme about those who are posting good numbers? >> hey, neil, good morning. good to be with you. i think it's size and scale, you know, walmart, amazon, costco, those guys have the scale and the size to deal with everything that's going on. target surprises me. target should be performing better and i think maybe they've got internal things they're going to have to sort through, but scale, size, it's very difficult to compete with in this market. neil: now, obviously and we've

learned it even from fast food giants from mcdonald's and the power of the value meal and power of value pricing and that, of course, is the cache behind walmart. what draws them these days? it might be an issue for a lot of people so how are people navigating that? >> as you know, neil, prices are still very high. and during peak inflation, walmart reported higher, more affluent customers traded into the business and appears they're staying and might be hurting target some. walmart reported, in the first quarters, non-food business, general merchandise prices same day sales and target reported

difficulties in those areas. during the peak of inflation, may be affluent customers came into the low food prices and looks like they're staying for general merchandise now. neil: that's interesting. i wonder, too, you're looking at future worries, and in your industry it seems to be donald trump's planned tariffs, whether it could be higher prices and it might be a cudgel for china and higher prices. it might backfire, are you worried about tariffs to come and how it could impact the industry? >> i'm worry about today kind of guy. there's enough to worry about today than what's going to happen down the road. i think the impact to tariffs are going to be two, three, four iterations. they'll be, you know, discussions and negotiations and eventually tariffs and then the responses to the tariffs. first from the manufacturers. are they going to shift

production or are you u.s. manufacturers going to beef up production? there will be a counter response from the consumer. those prices might go up, relatively speaking for those items they're actually lower and then there'll be a counter shift from the manufacturers based on what's happened in the consumer market. so, we're just at the very, very beginning of this. you know, potential, any potential impact from tariffs so i'm not too worried about it at this point. i think if you look back at the last round of tariffs, there was no discernible impact to the economic-- to the economy in general. clearly, marketing industry and specific impacts, but it didn't set off a massive wave of unemployment or inflation. neil: so your aoptimistic for the new year as things stand now? >> i am. i think we're going to have a very robust christmas selling season. i think all indications are that both sides of this

political dispute at least degree on one thing, they're glad it's over and we don't have to see it on our television and maybe some of the nastiness will ease up and i think that people who had their collective breaths held from a consumer perspective will start to spend during christmas and expect that to carry over in the new year. neil: we shall see. bill, i hope you have a very happy thanksgiving and bill simon walmart ceo and people are feeling confident and putting the money to work. we shall see how long that lasts. in the meantime, taking a look at donald trump and he's selected virtually most of his cabinet. these aren't all cabinet positions, but key staff members, looks pretty clouded, doesn't it? the fact of the matter is, it gets that way every four years. we explore the past and where it's going now with doris kearns goodwin after this. medicare plans side by side.

>> all right. well, just selected three weeks ago and almost the entire donald j. trump cabinet is in order and in place right now. these aren't all cabinet related poeings we're showing you, but gives you an idea how many positions need to be filled in short order, and he's doing it in record order. and 1933 when fdr was assembling his first cabinet. you could assemble these guys and notice they're all guys at a table like my thanksgiving

table, no kids, no one else, just guys in suits, that's how much it's gotten so big over decades. and enter doris kearns goodwin, and you know her from a book put out young people, the leadership journey, how four kids became president and read the book and i never had the qualities to be a president so i moved on. doris, great to see you always fun at the holidays and thinking of you, doris, on this story because i was amazed, the cabinet department, subcabinet departments there are and only so much room at the table and i guess that's where people sit behind the table who maybe aren't quite as important, but eastern gets in there. what's happened over the years? how did it get so owded? >> i think when george washington was there, only four, hamilton, jefferson,

randolph, and they could argue with each other. he called them not the cabinet, but the gentlemen of my family. it's true as each new department comes in, it grows. and now the subcabinet meet and cabinet levels meet and it's hard to have a discussion. jfk said why is the postmaster sitting here to discuss layoffs in cambodia. and it's hard to have the discussion bigger over time not only don't fit around the table, but don't have as much in common to have a common discussion. neil: it's interesting over the years and we'll recycle, and i don't know how much you can see, and you mentioned jfk and this time of year we were burying him. and a few more chairs, know the

just white guys, but women and minorities came in, by and large the one constant, it gets bigger and bigger and bigger, but so does the country. what do you make of it? >> so does the country. new departments are formed, postmaster general didn't have to be there before we didn't have a postal system. transportation, housing and urban affairs, commerce, labor, these are departments that grow with the functions of government growing so you need the cabinet official there. i mean, i still keep thinking back about the most incredible cabinet in history of course is abraham lincoln's and he had only seven at that time, but the incredible thing the top three were his three chief rivals in the campaign and somebody said you can't do that, they're more educated than you and celebrated and wants to be president. he said no, the country is in peril, these are the most strong and i need them by my side and lbj used to say it's

better to have your enemies inside the tent than out, and that's his way of talking. neil: the lincoln thing, what a great book idea would have been if you'd come up with it and team of rivals and maybe they could make movies about it. >> i wish i would have. neil: and throwing it out there, doris. and we had the main republican senator who became bill clinton's defense secretary and we've had various presidents who have those from opposing party, not that many. lincoln stands out to your point on sheer percentage having his rivals in the cabinet and that worked. doesn't always worked because we're paranoid of that today. how do you think the trump cabinet, what you're seeing it, hasn't been approved and stamped on yet, what do you make of it? >> well, you know, better cough first. yay, i'm okay. neil: good. >> what's interesting is that also, reagan had loyalty in his

cabinet, but he was loyalty to the philosophy and he also included competence and integrity as the two things that were important. what's important for a president, he needs people who can question his assumptions and argue with him, that's really, really important on the inside. that's what lincoln had, fdr had, and three republicans eleanor a welcome thorn in his side always willing to argue with him and with assumptions. as the cabinet fills out, maybe more people in the white house staff who can do that. the white house staff is equal to the cabinet proximity to power they're right there. they can talk to the president in ways that the officers can't and we've got a chief of staff who seems to be politically pragmatic in the way that james baker was with reagan. and diversity of thought is really important. that's why lincoln was able to figure out he could do the

emancipation proclamation because he'd figured out he had moderates, conservatives and liberals right in his cabinet and next to him. he knew what they were thinking. some wanted emancipation immediately and some never wanted it and union restored. he would say i made my consensus and even though they didn't agree with him still, he had shared credit, shouldered blanl and none made their disappointment public and you had a united cabinet going before the country and most important decision he would make, having them there is one of the real protections for the president and washington said, jefferson and hamilton would argue about everything, he said i loved to hear it and i need that diversity there. it makes it hard, but it's worth it. neil: i think that jefferson was just jealous of hamilton knowing some day he would get a broadway play and jefferson never would. that's a separate issue we could talk about. but, doris, what do you make

of, you know, the loyalty factor? obviously donald trump wants people who are preaching from his choir book and it important, i get that, but it can get pretty loud. we're told just for the treasury position, you know, it was almost a food fight, donald trump ultimately, you know, settled it with scott bessent, but it was dragging on and the knives why out and this one wanted this one and this one wanted this guy. how common is that for cabinet selections especially as cabinets got more influential and bigger and bigger? >> the difficulty today-- in lincoln's time they yelled and screamed at one another and mostly in their journals and diaries. now we hear about it and describing last night we heard the arguments are. at a certain point a president has to, as lincoln did, after a while sent them a memo said you're the members of my cabinet, i'd like to keep our

arguments within the family rather than outside and a leader has to be able to make that mix and allow them to argue, that's a good thing to do. on the other hand you don't want the country having to hear what they're saying about each other day by day and it's confusion and gives the press something, the arguments and debates between them. >> i don't know if there should be a law or requirement within the first year after you leave the administration, you can't write a book or tell-all. obviously, that's a little too naive on my part whether you're a democrat or republican. it is what it is, and the presidency has grown to be such an incredibly huge job, but it's huge as you've reminded me with fdr and certainly with abraham lincoln. i wonder what lessons we can learn from some of the greats? of course, you've written about lyndon johnson and the vietnam war and dealing with racism in this country and the civil rights act. but there are -- there are moments that challenge a president at an interesting

time and they're either up to it or they're not. >> yeah, i think that's what we always wonder. there's always a moment, not for the great presidents, but the civil war, great depression, world war ii, some of the problems we had in the '60s with civil rights and great progress we made during that period of time when you hoped that a president is up to that moment and depends not only on who is around him, it really depends on the temperament of the president, the character of the president, and the people they've surrounded themselves with will be a reflection of that. that's an example of who they are. but so far, america's come through in those critical moments whether it's the revolutionary war or the civil war, the great depression or world war ii, we've come through and emerged, not only we endured, but came through with greater strength. so i hope that young people who live through this polarized time can look back and what what it was like to be a person in that time with the anxiety that those great challenges provided, but somehow there was something in our character as a nation that allowed us to

emerge stronger than before. by the end of the civil war a terrible price was paid, but the original sin of slavery was gone. so the depression comes to an end with the mobilization for world war ii and the allies finally win world war ii without which western civilization would never have been achieved. democracy has been in peril many times before and we've come through and i want young people to think about so there's sol list so last. >> and that's why i love history. neil: and donald trump did it and captured voters who typically would have voted democratic, it's been done before with the likes of franklin roosevelt and john f. kennedy. roosevelt fascinated me, he was coming from one of the wealthiest families in the country, but maybe because of what he dealt with with polio and all, he did have the common touch and that means a great

deal, right? >> i think you're absolutely right, neil. adversity is something that a lot of leaders go through and if they come out the other side, as he did with his polio, there's a certain sense in which he could connecther people to whom fate had dealt a unkind hand. hemingway says everyone is broken by life and some are strong in broken places. and that's true of teddy roosevelt lost his mother and his wife on the same day in the same house, and when he come through it, your an a stronger person. neil: that's beautifully put. what a treat for us today. doris kearns goodwin, an unfinished love stories, history of the 1960's. and young people will like the journey and the four kids, some of the qualities they showed early on. i did read it and noted why i'm not president of the united states. doris, great to see you.

and lauren green has more. lauren. >> from the time carlo was a child he possessed an extraordinary faith even though his parents weren't very religious, but he brought his family to a deeper faith. he died of lukemia in 2006, 15 years old. a child of the digital age, teaching himself computer coding and his devotion to jesus led him to start a website, exceptional able to speak at five months. >> he was very advanced, and of course, also the performing of the faith, and the way he was able to speak, the fact that he wanted since he was very small, wanted to be inside the church for the blessed sacrament and the cross of jesus. so these were all vatican confirmed a miracle attributed to him, a brazilian boy was

healed from a pancreatic illness after playing to him. and a young woman was healed from a brain injury from a bike accident after praying to him where his bo law. and cannonization, they hope it inspires more young people. >> i think the children in holding him up is trying to draw those people back. it's the most pressing issue in my mind in the church today the disaffiliation of the young. >> poeb pope francis announced he'll be a saint in april. neil: isn't that amazing, i'm thinking of my two sons, wow, future saints. okay, what am i thinking? throwing it out there. we'll have more after this.

segue to bitcoin which is skrg a heavenly jump now, i'm done with these anologies, i promise. what is kind these? we're waiting to get to $100,000 bucks a coin and following its own drum roll, the naysayers and keeps going, going, volatile investment not for the faint of heart as you remind me. this was trading in the 40,000 area last fall and here we be. what do you make of this? >> right, so, i think that a bunch of it is the realization that, you know, trump got in. less regulation, he's a supporter of crypto and gary who was pushing back, for more someone more crypto friendly and ultimately when the election happened, this thing went from $70,000 to nearly

99,900, in close a to week. a big round number, they're going to push it there because it's a big round number, but i expect it to churn a little bit and digest the massive move that's had over the last two and a half weeks. neil: what's weird, too, kenny. normally rogue investments as this was considered, they say that often about gold and silver and platinum, but they've all been going up, the stocks have been going up, the major market averages this week. the dow is at a record. there's usually a dividing point, what would bring that on? >> listen, i thought we were going to have the dividing point after we had that russia after the election. it doesn't seem to want to come, but i think what is going to happen, i think that it's going to be more geopolitical than economic. i don't think it's going to be the fed meeting next month, i

think the fed is making it very clear to the markets, and to investors that they're probably not going to do anything next month. i think they want to get the markets prepared for that so there's not this overreaction, and as we move into the end of the year, i think it's going to be much more a geopolitical issue that's going to cause the markets to pause and trade back a little bit and digest. i think it's going to be-- >> and as a rule of thumb during presidential election years they do go up. nine times out of 10 it continues into the first half of the next year. do you see that as well? >> and listen, i'm bullish on the market in general, i'm bullish on the u.s. economy, i think it remains robust. i don't think it's out of control, but i am a little concerned that inflation, like everybody else, inflation's going to start to rear its ugly head and start to see that probably in the first quarter of the new year and i think that then is what will cause people to stop for a minute and don't get so excited and figure out what's going on with the economy because ultimately, it

is the economy and how companies could that price stocks, not all the kind of noise around it. neil: and finally, the consumer's doing pretty well. you can't deny that. >> i guess we're going to find out. it's christmas season and doing all kinds of big black sales starting next week and they're trying to get everyone excited because i think there's five less days, five less shopping days this year between thanksgiving and christmas so they're going to ramp is up. it's going to be interesting to see if they're able to ramp it up enough to get the consumer to come out and spend. i think that consumers will want to spend on experiences more than they do stock. neil: we shall see, my heavenly guiding light for these markets all of these years. kenny, keep it up. a saint in my eye and a good read of the market if you want to make money. everyone wants to make money. e so it smells first-day fresh for 50 days. 50 days!? and its refill reminder light
