passionatener addressing not only cross border security issues. but also more internationally the threat of china. the threat of russia, being able to help our allies. >> and tonight, we are keeping our eye on who he is coming and going from mar-a-lago today president-elect trump posted a rather cryptic message to truth social saying we might see bill gates at mar-a-lago some time soon. bret? >> bret: matt, some news from the president-elect on tiktok and that issue. what can you tell us? >> >> yeah.

may effect more than 100 million tiktok users. on 10 days january 10th. the u.s. supreme court is scheduled to hear arguments on whether the u.s. can block tiktok entirely in this country based on grounds of national security. well, today, president-elect filed documents asking the supreme court to delay a januarg tiktok to divest itself from a chinese owned company. pleckets trump many he has the fewer make the decision about tiktok and country and considering a, quote: negotiated resolution. >> we will keep you updated, bret state senate can subpoena fulton county district attorney fani willis as part of an inquiry as to whether she has engaged in misconduct during her prosecuting of president-elect trump. ruling allows willis to contest remove willis ane

georgia election interference case because of her romantic relationship with one of her prosecutors. the suspect accused of setting a woman on fire in new york city subway train is under indictment tonight. authorities say sebastian zapeta ignited the clothing worn by a still undived woman sunday morning. correspondent nate foy is outside brooklyn supreme court tonight with the latest. >> my office is very confident about the evidence in this case and our ability to hold zapeta accountable for his dastardly deeds. >> a brooklyn grand jury indicted the illegal guatemalan indictment accused of lighting a woman on fire inside a new york city subway car. sebastian zapeta is charged with first degree and second degree murder as well as first degree arson. he waived his right to appear in court and faces life in prison without parole if convicted of the top murder charges. immigration and customs enforcement tells fox news

launched detanks for zapeta. they will not honor the detainer per their current policy. >> the city, not cooperating with ice to deport people who are in this country illegally wreaking havoc, committing crimes is just outrageous. >> democratic new york city mayor eric adams supports coordinating with immigration authorities. his press secretary tells fox news, quote: mayor adams has directed the nypd to work within our legal authority and in partnership with ice's homeland security investigations team to explore criminal charges against mr. zapeta khalil under the federal arson statue. but the brooklyn d.a. wants the case to u. remain at the state level. >> state law is more significant in this case there is a possibility of life without parole. i have a lot of confidence in the people of brooklyn and people who come and serve on jury duty here. >> the horrific attack is raising questions about mentally ill riders on the new york city subway system. >> nobody does nothing let them

do what they do. >> as for the victim in the attack, the brooklyn d.a. said today the medical examiner and nypd have made progress in identifying her, but five days after her death, they are still not quite there. we will see if they can identify her before zapeta's arraignment coming up on january 7th where his indictment will be unsealed and is he expected to attend in person. bret? >> bret: nate foy live in brooklyn. nate, thank you. president trump may hit sanctuary cities and states where it hurts the most when he takes office next month. that is shaping up to be something that is going to come down, based on what happens with the sanctuary showdown. we have this story coming up. meantime, william la jeunesse takes a look ice doesn't belong in our communities. leave that at mar-a-lago. >> san diego supervisors recently voted to shield illegal

immigrants, including criminal aliens from president trump 12k3w4r-6789 our sheriffs are not responsibility for nor should they be held accountable for participating in what is essentially a federal job. >> that is about to be tested. >> it is literally against federal law for a state or local government to tell jail officers that they cannot communicate with ice. >> one likely battleground between trump and sanctuary communities is the state criminal alien assistance program. it provides 234 million in taxpayer dollars for states and counties to help cover the cost of incarcerating criminal aliens. including sanctuary states like california and new york. many counties in these states also get millions from washington. >> hypocritical for them with one hand hold out their hand for federal funding to help pay for the cost of criminal alien and with the other hand block ice

from the jailhouse door to take away those aliens that are costing them money. >> the fight largely comes down to cooperation. sanctuaries refuse to honor most ice detainers or share information about when criminal aliens are about to be released from jail. [chanting u.s.a.] >> the question is will president trump withhold money if they refuse. >> i don't think that these communities really believe that the trump administration will go through with it. >> i think there are going to be enormous court battles if they try to cut funding. >> now, immigration is solely, by law, a federal responsibility and now sanctuary cities or states may try to protect illegal immigrants, including convicted felons but ultimately it is not their right to decide who stays and who goes. bret? >> bret: william la jeunesse live in los angeles. william, thanks. this is shaping up to be a huge travel weekend. aaa predicting nearly 120 million people will be away from home. tsa is telling fliers to come

ditch daylight saving time and park the nation on one time year around. >> i agree with him. florida already passed that. already signed by the governor. just waiting to be enacted. >> the incoming president declares daylight saving time inconvenient and very costly. he wants republicans to eliminate it. >> i can't stand it. i don't care if it's daylight savings or if it's -- you know what's the other one, standard time? it doesn't matter. >> flipping the clocks twice a year sparks chaos in the body'ser is indicated yum rhythms. >> we have increased risk of stroke and heart attack. much better to have a uniform time that your biological clock gets used to. >> there is a problem with abolishing the biannual time change. >> when have you daylight saving time causing a 9:00 a.m. sunrise. almost everybody wakes up in the dark. many places in the country would have sunrises either 8:30 or even 9:00.

>> congress wiped the time change in the 1970 to see save fuel during the energy crisis. >> daylight savings time became very unpop lash very quickly. people really dislike waking up in the pitch dark. >> so they undid it. but in 2022, the senate passed a bill to switch to daylight saving time permanently. >> is there objection? without objection, so ordered. >> thank you, madame president. and. >> however, the bill died in the house. presidents ranging from franklin del morose vet to richard nixon have changed the time via executive order but congress could have the ultimate say. the constitutional awards congress control weights and measures. while lawmakers can't create more time, they can give us the time of day. bret? >> bret: chad pergram on capitol hill. chad, thanks. up next, the panel on the trump border priorities plus winners and losers of the week and the year. as we go to break though, sad

when are you coming to the center of the universe, bill mar-a-lago. miss you on x that's elon's son. new year's eve's going to be amazing tjt. it has been a steady stream of people coming to see the president-elect. what does it mean for his agenda going forward? >> bring in our panel. harold ford jr. co-host of "the five." mollie hemingway editor and chief at "the federalist." bill mcgurn "wall street journal." mollie, it is quite something to see the list of folks, the bezos, tim cooks, the zuckerbergs, the bill gates making their way to mar-a-lago to sit and have dinner and pay respects and kind of, i don't know, talk about -- talk to the new leader of the free world. >> it's a start. and it's a good sign that things are going to be done differently than after 2016 when a lot of people on the left just refused to accept legitimacy of that election and began a large resistance.

and tech companies were a major part of that. with their censorship and their controlling of algorithms. it's nice that they're talking. it's nice that a few of them have given money to the inaugural celebration. but it's not that much money and i think what a lot of people are wanting is more of a substantive change with these tech companies. more of an investment in america and in american values. including the right to free speech, which has been so hampered by some of these tech companies. >> bret: harold, the meetings reportedly with canadian officials, two in particular the canadian foreign minister and the finance minister said to be at mar-a-lago for meetings and this comes, obviously after the dinner where you had justin trudeau the master bedroom come down. that started all of this stuff about the 51st state if they don't change their -- how they deal with money and the at any rate trade deficit. in fact, he the president-elect saying maybe wayne gretzky the great one should run for prime

minister and become the governor of the 51st state of canada. all this back and forth seems like a lot of it is in guest, it is getting message across clearly canadian officials are coming down here to talk business. >> no question. merry christmas, thanks for having me on. the president doing this comes in a long tradition of american presidents looking to meet and seeking and then having those meetings with the leading business leaders in our country. and then asking those leaders continue to vest in our country. i think the president is finding some challenge and some friction even in his own party as to how he deals with these great leaders and whether or not they are fully in favor of all the things a president campaigned on including immigration and border security. but, i give president trump a lot of credit. president biden is kind of off the scene here. president trump is dominating things. and is he bringing the most successful, the wealthiest

people to -- americans that is to mar-a-lago. and i hope as he brings these foreign leaders that he understands and i'm sure he does that these are not real estate projects. these are serious people, wealthy people, successful people. many of them elected leaders. and i think the american people including me are giving him the benefit of the doubt as he tries to make his border more safe and secure. as he tries to ensure that prices come down for everything from groceries to insurance and obviously gas is coming down a little bit now. but to everything that we buy. he will continue to get the benefit of the doubt, the president. and i think the country will be looking see who shows up new year's eve. >> bret: you know, bill, one of the things that is up in the air is the house speaker and that number of headlines about that, republicans use holiday break to try to resurrect war on mike johnson. razor thin house majority. creates headaches for republicans, former freedom caucus chair on johnson i'm going to keep my options open. here is representative andy

harris on that race. >> we just can't have him making the deals with hakeem jeffries but the deals have to be made with the republican conference. that's not what we saw in the last two weeks. we are working with the speaker's office to change the way things are done. to say make sure that we can advance president trump's agenda for the american people. and we will see if those commitments can be made. if they can't, then next friday could be a long day. >> bret: next friday obviously the speaker's race, bill. >> look, that's the first challenge for the republicans. can't get anything done unless he can pass laws. with such a slim majority gives the senators a disproportionate voice. i think that will be one of donald trump's challenges. can he unite the republican party around his agenda or sufficiently to get things through congress? also say, i agree with harold that the reaching out has by and large been pretty standard. what makes it different is that

most of these business leaders came out against donald trump. you know, they were pretty well-known to be in the non-trump camp. so that's why it's so interesting and as mollie mentioned, some of the big tech company, you know, suppressed the hunter biden laptop story by the post and so forth. that's what kind of makes it interesting. >> bret: okay. here we go. we are going to do some lightning round winners and losers. want a winner and loser for this week and then a winner and loser for the year. got 30 seconds each. here we go, mollie? >> molly: my winner for the week is the thaad missile defense system was our first successful intercept of a combat missile houthis directed toward israel. my loser of the week is costco which their shareholders asked them to drop their racist and sexist policies and they declined to do so. am i supposed to do the year as well? >> bret: yeah, go for it? >> elon musk is my winner for the year. elon didn't just invest

$44 billion in twitter but he also backed donald trump at great risk to his reputation and he won so he is my winner for the year. my loser would be iran and its proxies which have suffered so much this year. after the october 7th attack last year and israel did just a great job of making them less effective. >> bret: all right. harold? >> so, bret, my winner of the week is netflix. they are streaming success with nfl games really continue to show the kinds of challenges that linear and traditional media are facing from not only sports and politics but from everywhere. my loser of the week -- i don't eat a lot of desert. anybody's wife couldn't have my sweet potato pie and ice cream would have wanted to have it. i thank her for that hope can i have it more. my winner of the year is nvidia what an investment that is. start listening to people before we start talking again.
