baby to love and cradle and learn how to love a baby. will: this will not be broken. you can try all you want. [laughter] will: no. great morning to have you here. great day yesterday. donald trump as we mentioned visited the army, navy game. navy won, 31-13. a ton of people there along with donald trump. you had vice president-elect jd vance, you had secretary of defense nominee pete hegseth, vivek ramaswamy, elon musk, tulsi gabbard, wesley hunt, dave mccormick, john thune, mike johnson, house speaker, and daniel penny. >> russell brand. will: russell brand was there. rachel: such an eclectic group of friends. will: it was a really warm reception by the crowd. i believe we have something there, some sound that you can

watch. oh, well -- rachel: we'll come back to it. will: it was usa, usa, usa,. >> which was cool. will was there and we just want to give you a shout-out because he did the show yesterday morning with us and then drove down there and drove back but what i really enjoyed watching and just sort of seeing some of the pictures that you took is the camaraderie and the fellowshop that was -- it just looked like a terrific and warm environment. both inside the suite there and outside. will: it was fun. rachel: you're hearing the chants now, usa, usa, in the back ground. i love the daniel penny angle on this, donald trump sending a really clear message along with jd vance who is the one that invited him. but the message is these kinds of frivolous and mean and unnecessary lawsuits when this young man was just trying to do his job, you see these two together, both of them have had

to fight our justice system and the politicization of it by the left and they came out on the other side. now, i have to imagine, you said which was really interesting, i asked what was daniel penny like and you said he's an unassuming, shy person. you have to believe that this is going to have a lasting traumatic impact on him even though he's getting this embrace by the president and jd vance and the crowd. nonetheless -- will: he paid a high emotional tool, a high financial toll. all he tried do was step up and do the right thing and protect his fellow new yorkers. he's a shy, unassuming guy, not seeking the spotlight. that was in a suite with a ton of luminaries, political and pop culture celebrities. it was fun for me. it was the first time since standing and sitting right here on the set to see our former co-host. rachel: how's he doing? will: he's doing grai great.

he's doing great. it was a big bro hug. there's the president of the united states. he had a lot of things to say about "fox & friends weekend." i told him you broke up the band. he said you'll be all right. you've got rachel. [laughter] >> can we get him on, can you call him up and say mr. president, any time you want to call in on "fox & friends weekend," we would love to have you and we m miss pete obviousl. rachel: speaker johnson was there who does a great impression of the president. will: yeah, speaker johnson's a great guy. there were a lot of great people yesterday. there's a general atmosphere of enthusiasm and excitement, i'm just telling you. it's not -- rachel: it's not just. will: it's real joeful. rachel: it's not just inside of the suite at the game. you sense it everywhere you go. i went to the hair salon, talking about that, they were like tips are getting better and people are in a better mood and it just wasn't like that before this and so that's a major

difference. one area where people aren't feeling so at easie ease is oe drones and nobody wants to give us answers. here's new jeerly republican nen congressman calling for alejandro mayorkas to give us answers. listen. >> homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas shockingly said this week we haven't seen anything unusual. we know of no threat, closed quote. isisn't unusual? is he kidding? how does secretary new year's so infamously told us for years that our southern border is secure and closed that we know is not, can now insult our intelligence that we haven't seen anything unusual. the drones, i would suggest, such as a major military power, i've written defense secretary lloyd austin asking the pentagon

to authorize the use of force to down one or more of these unmanned threats to uncover the mystery. bring them down over the ocean or an area where there's no population, bring them down and find out who is doing it. rachel: we know who is doing it, guys. will: i think so. i think so. rachel: santa claus. will: the fbi is saying we're doing our best to find the origin of those drone activities but i think there's been a slight overreaction, that's the fbi official. by the way, people are not buying it. they're just not buying i we know who it is, it's us. the new york po post editorial post said sorry, the americans don't trust you on the drones or anything else. rachel: it was like a 1950s mom talking to her daughter and the daughter says mom's, what's a conspiracy theorist, and the mom says somebody who is six months ahead of the mainstream media.

we've been lied to so much over the last few years especially by this administration that's still in power that nobody believes anything and so you do see people having a lot of ideas about what it can be and now that elon musk has opened up x so that these theories are not being censored, people are out there because the government won't tell us what it is, they're trying to guess what's happening. >> the editorial board says the biden crew absolutely has blown its credibility on this front. earlier this year the white house stayed hush, hush about a chinese spy balloon that it knew was taking a tour of the american military bases. they fully plan to keep it a secret forever. only to be foiled when civilians spotted the craft. for that matter, why trust a white house that lied, again knowingly, about how joe would never pardon hunter. not to mention years of gaslighting about the border

being, quote, under control, and months of bull about inflation being transitory. rachel: all good points. will: yeah. so the monmouth county new gear snewjersey sheriff was on f "fo& friends." >> if this was a national security drone we miserably failed. drone technology is emerging so much faster particularly in the defense field and it's a matter of national security and it's a matter of public safety here in new jersey. and so when i got together and sent a letter to congressman smith, our congressman here in monmouth and ocean counsel of at this where we had a number of sightings. that letter said we need changes to the federal law. we have to be able to protect our public and our residents here and that would require loosening up in the ability for the state or at least the state policing units across the country to deconflict and to

dedrone if necessary, meaning take down a drone. so right now that rests solely with the federal government and i think that's the frustration. will: you both have alluded to this. the thing about it is, we know who is doing this because any other alternative than it is the united states would have required action, we would have already seen. rachel: correct. will: we would have shot it down if it was foreign adversary. rachel: that's right. will: they may be playing semantic games and word games that it's not the military. that leaves other alternatives like intelligence agencies. >> there's more than a dozen of them. black ops happen all the time. even if this is, for example, this could be testing of a new technology, this could be a test run to do mapping, geo spatial. we don't know. and as long as they obfuscate and they're opaque about the real reason they're up there, it makes people -- when they said the thing at the end, i love how mentioned this. you said overreaxe, i think you said that, rachel.

over reaction, if you don't know what's up there and you won't tell us what's up there, there's no such thing as overreaction. rachel: here's what's scary about it. you know the public is as they call it overreacting or potentially panicking, whatever it is that this is that they know what it is, they think we're going to panic more if they tell us the truth. that's what's actually scary about i here's donald trump on truth social saying the mystery drone, he posted this yesterday, the mystery drone sightings all over the country, can this be happening without our government's knowledge? i don't think so. let the public know and now otherwise shoot them down. jt. now, that is the kind of truth telling frank talk that i think people are looking forward to. we haven't heard anything from the transportation secretary, we haven't heard anything from the current secretary of defense. all those things may change. but people are going into the holidays and they just would like some answers. i live in new jersey.

i've seen them outside my window, right over my house and they're everywhere. will: yeah. well, we'll see. might take a new government. hang in there. one more month. >> those pictures right there, i'm fascinated by that. look how close that is. rachel: that's right outside my house. you can see how low it is because you can see that's a tree and again, i mentioned this earlier in the show. another time that i saw the drone and they're quite large, i was sitting on a couch in my room and looking out the window so that also tells you that's not at the level of an airplane. we are seeing drones and the social media and the sort of neighborhood apps all over new jersey especially in the area where i live which is by the way very close to bed minister, trump's golf course. it's all everyone's talking about. all they're talking about. will: right. good job by -- rachel: my daughter. knows i wouldn't be able to figure out -- will: can you show me how to

turn the video on. will you do this for me? rachel: i'm a gen nexter but when it comes to tech, i'm definitely a boomer. turning to your headlines. an online lee gale fund created by a group called the december 4th legal committee raised more than $107,000 online for the united healthcare ceo murder suspect luigi mangione. we're learning that high profile former prosecutor karen agnafilo who has gone after president-elect donald trump in the past is joining mangione's defense team. ag alvin bragg says the suspected killer could be extradited to the city from pennsylvania as early as tuesday. some democrat lawmakers are warming up to the doge idea and thinking of their own ways to cut government spending. elon musk's mom joined us earlier to react. >> if he's out of control and the more it's revealed it's just

horrifying and i'm happy that some democrats really are concerned about it too, of the waste and the spending. rachel: so far, at least one democrat has formally joined musk and vivek ramaswamy with their new doge caucus which is now bipartisan and one driver's christmas spirit may have landed him on the naughty list. wyoming highway patrol sharing this picked of a decked out mustang online. rachel: cookie time.

>> what better way to share christmas cheer than with sweets? we've been indulging plenty this holiday season and here we are. >> are you familiar with a cookie swap? it's a fun holiday gathering where everyone makes one batch of cookies but you leave with a variety of cookies. so that's a kitchen sink one. that's everything. so it's got like the m & ms, the oreos and you bake it. rachel: >> you want tins for everyone to take the cookies home. if you gift cookies, there's two ways to do that. over here, i wrote a heart felt note and i have the recipe on

the card and these cards are like -- they're personalized cards. you can see this has my name on it and this is a great holiday gift. here, i've actually just wrapped it in ribbon. these are holiday themed spatulas from tivola. they're called spatulardss. rachel: it's tough times. a lot of people feel the inflation. this is an affordable, thoughtful way of gifting to people. >> they really want that thought. i always tell my husband, i'm not interested in a gift. i just want like a really nice card because sometimes it's like the hustle and but bustle of evy day, i think that's what's important. >> this looks delish. >> when you are hosting a cookie swap or desert party, what i've done is made a phon fe and hot cocoa station. this crock pot is the multi-meal

multi-cooker. one side is hot cocoa. the other side is white chocolate fondue and i have all different toppings. i have cookies, strawberries, bananas. >> this is white chocolate fondue. >> yes. it's been here for a little bit. rachel: you get the gist. >> we've been here since 6:00 a.m. >> she was warning me. >> i was warning. the hot cocoa is delicious. but again, then i've got cute toppers, you get them at the supermarket and now people are always like okay, great, i want a cozy gift. these are affirmation socks from notes to self. there are affirmations on them. it's a woman owned company, they're made in the usa. rachel: what's the affirmation. >> there's strong, courageous, this is the strong and so much more. they're so comfy. i put them on today. it's nice. at the end of the day you can put them on and it's nice and coy. cozy. rachel: put them on and watch a

hallmark movie. >> i think we're going to the advent calendar, guys. >> let's do it. >> we're on day 15? >> we're on day 15. will: all right. >> all right, guys. will: you've been doing this. you made this for us. >> i've been hearing numerous times, moving things around here. who wants to open it. will: you got it, kevin. >> open it up and what do we have? >> these are our swiss army knives, two varieties, the huntsman which has 15 functions, a wood saw, scissors, bottle opener. this one is the rescue tool. so it's designed for emergencies and has 13 function, you can cut through seat belts and glass. >> every boy needs one of these at some point. this is an on your list christmas gifts. >> i love these. i have them too. today i didn't have one. i was like can i open it up? here's the screwdriver.

i needed it. we made it work. will: i can't fly home with them. rachel: boys will be boys. >> thank you, guys. >> thank you. appreciate you and thanks for the cookies too by the way. rachel: you know more about elon musk and vivek ramaswamy's doge but you may not know the inspiration that came from argentina. >> yes, indeed. here is how we're going to tell how the first year of cost cutting went and what it might mean for us here in the u.s.

rachel: argentina's free market president achieving an economic miracle this year, exposing its failing socialist neighbors while serving as inspiration for the push to curb government spending here in the u.s. the country's monthly inflation rate is as 2.4%, down from 25% when he first took office one year ago. our next guest says it all started by targeting waste and fraud. heritage research fellow and economist eg antoney joins us now. great to have you. such a fascinating story. what is the lesson of argentina.

maybe lay out how he did it, what kind of austerity measures he took and what's to come. >> rachel, i think the lesson here is it can be done. you know, in less than a year, malay has cut the monthly inflation rate by over 90%. that's absolutely tremendous. he did it by cutting excess government spending, he's rooting out waste, fraud and abuse everywhere throughout the budget. that's one of the key lessons that lawmakers need to pay attention to here in the united states. there can be no sacred cows anymore, whether you're on the left or on the right. we need to be willing to look into things like the pentagon's budget, go through defense spending, go through social security, medicare, et cetera, find waste, fraud and abuse wherever it is and root it out. illegitimate payments are i'll illegitimate payments. rachel: let's not pretend this is entirely painless. bringing down the inflation rate has caused economic hardship on the people of argentina but

they're just now starting to see they're turning the corner on that so things kind of get worse before they get better? >> well, one of the reasons why it's so easy for politicians to get away with excess government spending is the fact that it's very much like drinking, actually, where the positive effects come first. you get buzzed and the hangover doesn't come until the next day. the reason we have much bad inflation today, the reason we have high prices is because of the government spending we've done over the last several years, all those trillions of dollars in, again, mostly waste, fraud and abuse so it may be painful to start sobering up at first but that's the path to long run health. rachel: no question. people are experiencing some of the withdrawal symptoms from some of the government -- one of the things that's hard about doing this, first of all, i think the idea of having doge is going to make it sort of take some of the political pressure off of individual members, right? because there's now going to be

this organization that's going to start to direct where we're going to cut. and also start to look at it because the hard part is every politician can say i want to cut government spending but when that project gets cut in your district, then that's another matter, right? >> rachel, you're absolutely right. and this is why to your point a group likeis going to be so incredibly important. you need a third party to present ideas to both the left and the right to, again, illustrate the fact that we can't have any sacred cows anymore. right. we need to be willing to root out, again, waste, fraud and abuse no matter where it is and we can't let the special interests run the show anymore. that's what malay did in his country and that's how he was able to create the first government surplus in over a decade and by the way maintain a trade surplus. that's really important for a nation like argentina that is suffering from such low levels of foreign exchange. rachel: yeah.

he's also -- he's attracting a lot of foreign investment because of the news he's making. really fast, i have a couple seconds here. a big part of that was cutting the government workforce. that i think will be the biggest challenge for doge and the trump administration, correct? >> i think that's right e rachel. but it needs to be done. very to accept the fact that many of the workers are doing dduplicativ work. many aren't doing positive work. they're a net subtraction to the nation's economy. they have to go. rachel: a lot of them aren't coming into work. a lot of buildings are sitting empty because everyone's working from home and that's cut down on productivity. ej, great story, a lot of lessons to be learned and we do know that milay and elon and vivek have been interacting, i saw pic pictures of them togetht an event in mar-a-lago. thank you for joining us. great story. >> thank you, rachel.

kevin: 32 minutes after the hour now. it is the third of our 12 days of giving. today we're high lighting feeding america. they provided, get this, 6 million meals to those in need this year, operating out of 200 food banks across america. here with more is the president of feeding america, linda bishon. ism going to say it at the beginning, thank you for all you do. as someone who grew up food insecure, i know the important work you're trying to do, to not just look after families during

the holiday season but all year round. tell us about how things are going and the challenging that many families still face even at this time of year. >> thanks so much. thanks for sharing your story. really appreciate that. it is a difficult time. in fact, the rates of food insecurity are higher now than they were at the peak of the pandemic. 47 million americans are food insecure today. that's one in seven. and even more concerning, one in five of our nation's kids are facing food insecurity. kevin: you know what else really strikes me is people tend to have this idea that the food insecure are somehow people who you might see on the streets or people who have been displaced. i'm here to tell you, at least anecdotally, you can be working and have a job and still be food insecure. have you learned that and found that in your many years of service? >> you're absolutely correct.

one of the fastest growing proportions of folks that are served by local food banks are people who earned too much money to qualify for federal programs like snap. but not enough to cover all of the basic necessities. kevin: it's really incredible. and i know there are some amazing ministries and around many communities around the country that help and you have groups like knights of columbus and other groups that try zone in there and fill in the gaps but feeding america is really doing something that i think we can all celebrate and again not just today but all year round because what you have been able to do is cultivate this passion for community and partner with i guess a number of organizations, food banks all over the country, i want to say it's over 200. is that right? >> there are over 200 food banks in the feeding america network serving over 60,000 community based food pantries and meal programs and shelters that are providing meals in every

neighborhood across the country. there's an organization that is connected through feeding america and together we have the opportunity to move forward towards ending hunger. hunger.kevin: you can learn mot feeding america and help your fellow american by visiting feedingamerica.org, just use the food bank finder to find your local food bank. thank you so much, linda, we appreciate that and merry christmas to you and yours. >> thank you so much. happy holidays, merry christmas. kevin: tim cook, mark zuckerberg, jeff bezos slowly making their way down to mar-a-lago. why are they doing that? maria bartiromo breaks down why big tech is suddenly team trump. that's coming up. come on in, how are you?

will: we're back with a few headlines, a police dog in florida rescuing a missing child friday finding her stuck underneath a car cover in the hot florida sun. >> sweetheart, come on out. it's okay. that a boy. good job, buddy. will: thankfully the child was brought back to her family safe and sound. good job by thedog. a restaurant server in d.c. was let go after she said she would

refuse to serve the incoming trump administration. she said she would not serve any person in office she believes is a sex trafficker or who is trying to deport people. the restaurant bukard's saloon putting out a statement saying they're disgusted by her comments and she was fired due to their zero tolerance policy on discrimination. rachel: it's this administration that's complicit in sex trafficking over the border. will: now she doesn't have to worry about picking and choosing. she's doesn't work there anymore. after phil robertson's diagnosis last week, two of his sons joined us to talk about the outpouring of support their family received. >> we noticed that mentally we're like what's happening here. once we felt comfortable with the doctor giving us the diagnosis, we went public. actually, it's been a blessing

because somewhere in that outpouring he's really found a newfound peace. will: the 78-year-old robertson is said to still be in the early stages of the disease. and those are your headlines. let's turn to chief meteorologist rick reichmuth who has the fox weather forecast. >> it's cold out here guys. is it cold? very. >> how is nos new york streetig you in the cold. >> we love it but it is cold. >> take a look at the weather maps. we're going to have rain coming this week and some snow. the rain will be across the west. a big rain coming again in central parts of california, up into the pacific northwest, a lot of mountain snow as well in the pacific northwest, not as much around the four corners. rain coming across the tennessee valley and snow across the interior sections of the northeast. we're watching late this coming week for maybe snow across the cities, a slight chance. we have plenty of time to talk about that.

we had one storm yesterday, a big ice storm across parts of iowa, that storm mulling to thee east and bringing some snow that will turn into rain by the time we get to tomorrow. snow across entire i don't remember sec -- interior sections of the northeast and rain along the coast. back to you inside. will: thank you, rick. rachel: titans of the business world wasting no time to curry favor with president-elect trump, reportedly angling for spots on whatever business advisory panels he's going to form. will: in the tech world, meta, amazon and open a.i. all pledging seven figure donations to the inaugural funds with jeff bezos set to meet in marlo ga m. kevin: here to react, sunday morning futures anchor, maria bartiromo. i've been to mar-a-lago. i'm sure you've been to

mar-a-lago. a lot of tech titans making the journey to palm beach this coming week. what's behind all this? you can't be too transparent. i understand you don't want it to look as if you're saying this is purely transactional. but i do think they're trying to curry a little favor. what say you? maria: for sure, kevin. great to see you all. thank you so much. they want to be part of the conversation. i would say two words. regulation and anti-trust. those are the two issues that have been big issues for many ceos because the biden-harris administration has been stopping lots of deals. the ftc has a problem with anti-trust concerns when you see big mergers so they've been getting in the way of lots of deals and preventing many of these companies from getting larger and merging so that's the anti-trust part of it and then there's the regulation part of it. many of these companies have been just dominated by dealing with new rules and regulations under the biden-harris administration. they know president trump is going to do the opposite of

that, he's going to deregulate, in other words, take away some of the burdensome rules around the climate change agenda like one easy one which the securities and exchange commission put in place a couple years ago which made it unlawful to not have a plan for emissions impact from your customers and their customers and so all of these rules around the biden climate change agenda will go away, likely on day one, with president trump's executive orders. these ceos want a voice at the table. they see what has happened to elon musk, by the way, by partnering with trump on so many things and they say oh, look at this, he's got the president's ear. they want the president's ear as well when talking about regulation. so that's one of the issues, i think. rachel: i think crypto is also a big one on the table, isn't it. maria: for sure. that's why people are happy about paul atkins as the incoming securities and exchange commission head.

he will take over for gary gensler. paul atkins has been saying for a long time that all of the regulation around crypto has forced developers to go to europe and asia and do real big business and it's leaving the u.s. alone in not having that kind of expertise so paul atkins coming into the securities and exchange commission is going to do a lot for crypto legislation. people need clarity. we've got all of these different agencies running things. they want oversight over crypto. you've got the securities and exchange commission, the cftc. that's where also doge comes in because doge is looking to cut costs and one idea is to merge the cftc which is the commode commodities futures and trading decision with the s.e.c., the securities and exchange commission. pepeople want to know if paul atkins will get behind the idea. crypto is one of the issues and the ceos see people like david saks getting a white house role, running crypto and a.i. they want a voice at the table. we're talking about that this

morning for sure. we are leading off the program with utah senator mike lee. we're going to talk about the change in the regulatory framework to come. we're talking about the president's budget and his first 100 days. what will that first 100 days look like? we're told the priority's going to be the border, will be the border and then energy in the first reconciliation package. you know, you wouldn't think that they need a reconciliation package which means you only need a majority vote in the senate for the border. knowing the way america just voted but guess what? they don't have the votes for the border bill so they have to take it to the reconciliation package meaning the extension of the tax cuts is going to come later in 2025, something that the chairman of the house ways and means committee jason smith is not in favor of. i'll talk about the agenda and how likely it is that president trump gets his no, ma'am nos for this cabinet through. then we talk about devin nunes, big story as christopher wray

announced his resignation this week and kash patel coming in to run the fbi. devin nunes knows all about the political dirty tricks that were played on him and as well as kash patel and president trump with the russia collusion lie. yesterday, i'm not sure if you saw it, but president trump announced a new role for devin nunes, he's going to continue running trump media and technology group but he's taking on a new role of chairman, chairman of the intelligence architecture as an outside chairman. so we'll see. this is going to be outside people away from the federal government so that will be interesting to talk with devin nunes about this morning as well. will: we'll be watching. maria: see you in 10 minutes. thanks, guys. will: it's the final push of the playoffs as nfl battle injuries, in state rivalries and a brand-new quarterback. jen hale with all the action on fox, next.

yards each game for the rest of the season. i think he can do i he's been averaging 125. the steelers run defense, top five. circle that matchup on your calendar today. will: if no not that one, this a good game as well, bucs, chargers, crossover matchup. >> justin hartford, does he have the strength of 10 men? he's battling a thigh and ankle injury on his left leg. he's not going to have the mobility we normally see. how much is that going to hurt him today? because both of these teams need the w to get to where they want to go in the post season. so he's going to come out firing as much as he can on all cylinders. this will be a fantastic matchup, watching how much can he propel himself and decide mentally i'm going to test the injuries out and overcome them. those types of games are fun to watch. will: really quickly, to set us up here we have in the 1:00 games, we have commanders, saints, cowboys panthers.

we have jets, jaguars. i'll come back to center, i promise you. jets, jags. which by the way aaron rodgers it's not going to well in new york. >> definitely not going well in new york. will, i sat down with him last night for a pretty emotional and raw international view. interview. he's in an interesting place in life. if this is the end of his life as a tenure as a quarterback or his life with the jets, he wants to finish on a high note e said he went back and watched film of him as a young quarterback and it, quote, kills him to see how much injuries have changed him. the good news for him, he looked like himself last week, threw for 300 yards for the first time in three years, he really wants to build on that, make a statement finish to whatever the ending is. again, whether it's with the jets or in the nfl as a whole so aaron rodgers never dull, always interesting and a very curious head space right no. will: we'll be watching all of the games. thank you for setting it up for

us, jen hale. >> thanks for having me. will: more "fox & friends" moments away.
