trying to get out and head home for the holidays. we've got fox team coverage with madison scarpino in atlanta where they're trying to get out and then start with madison at hartsfield atlanta international airport. >> a lot of people are making the trip back home or going somewhere for new year. so holiday travel is still in full swing. officials here at the atlanta airport are expecting a busy weekend. things are going smooth so far, only about a 20 minute wait at tsa, but we are seeing some issues with flights nationwide. there are already thousands of delays and over 160 cancellations today and we saw the same sort of travel disruptions yesterday. >> definitely might leave out earlier than what we did because we barely made it and just be nice, be kind, be
8:02 am
patient. >> just hectic, you know, it's one of those deals you have you're at the mercy of the airlines and the weather, so-- >> and a big portion of the disruptions are from storms. severe tornados ripped across the south the past few days, extreme winds and hail and that weather is expected to continue this weekend. so if you're flying somewhere, just know that the delays might continue, but triple-a says that most people travelling for the holidays will be hitting the road, so, highways will likely be backed up. the storms have already proven to cause major issues on the roads in places like texas where there have been several crashes leaving people stuck on the side of the roads for hours waiting to get towed. so, whether you're travelling by car or by plane, make sure to give yourself plenty of time. triple-a is expecting nearly 120 million people to travel for the holidays this season, david. david: madison, thank you very
8:03 am
much for that and now specifics about the wicked weather that americans are facing as they're travelling back home. adam klotz is at the weather center with the latest. >> hey, david, a number of systems we're watching moving across the country, but none are more impactful than across the gulf coast. it's been an active couple of days and today might be the most active among them, a couple of isolated severe thunderstorms out there, severe thunderstorm watches in place and everything in the yellow. unfortunately, tornados ultimately we'll see across a fair large part of the states. and a scale of four out of five for the risk of severe weather. you'll have that this afternoon and ultimately run through the hours, and a pretty big area where you're looking at a risk of strong ef2 or greater, ap louisiana, mississippi, ultimately up into alabama. a large area where we're
8:04 am
expecting big tornados to spin up and run on the ground for a little while. we could certainly see severe weather. this is one of the situations where the worst of the weather happens in the evening hours and then runs overnight so there's a low risk of severe weather tomorrow largely early in the morning, so atlanta, folks flying there. we'll be talking about storms moving from overnight into early tomorrow morning and then sweeping across the southeast. obviously, storms that that can cause impacts as far as any kind of flight delays so we're looking at the yellow areas with some sort of delays likely because some of the weather, again, the largest system is that one moving across the southeast. by the time you get into sunday, folks who are maybe taking off for that new year's eve holiday or waiting longer to head back home, again, that whole system pushes up further off to the east coast. atlanta would be one of those areas that's likely impacted and again, i should point out we've been seeing rounds and rounds across the pacific northwest, we've noticed that
8:05 am
and felt that, and another one is coming back in. david, some of the ski resorts are seeing a ton of snow and always a little bit of good and bad with all of these weather systems. david: that's good news for those folks. thank you, adam. a financial storm, inflation is still a magic topic at holiday dinner tables this year as food costs continue to hit wallets, many are looking forward to relief that president-elect drumm is promising. can his plans, for example, lower energy costs, lower all costs, grady trimble has more from the white house. >> there is excess oil supply globally right now and the international energy agency expects another surplus in 2025 as well so that combined with president-elect trump's promises to expand oil and gas production in the united states could lower prices for everyday americans. >> we're going to have so much
8:06 am
oil and gas and other things, you won't know what to do with it, please, president trump stop, we have too much, the prisses are going too low, sir. i will direct every cabinet secretary to cut 10 old regulations for every new regulation, which i did last time. >> despite president biden's green agenda, the u.s. set a record for crude oil production in 2024, so, how will president-elect trump set another record in 2025 as you would expect he wants to? well, energy executives say there's all sorts of things he can do. they hope he'll ease drilling regulations and enact more tax incentives for oil producers. allow interstate pipeline projects and reshape programs for drilling on federal lands and off shore areas. and alaska's governor sent a wish list with items on it. and others are optimistic that
8:07 am
trump's energy policies will bring down prices. >> we're not going to have inflation, it will be price the deflation, the price of gas will go down and diesel will go down and the price of food will go down. >> and trump is expected to ease on lng that the president biden administration put into place and we expect on day one, perhaps, january 20th, executive orders to set his energy policy so he will not need the help of congress to get his energy policy into motion, david. david: grady, thank you very much. so can trump bring relief to consumers? kenny is at slate stone wealth and also a great chef. i wish i could talk to him about what he had for christmas, maybe if we have time. kenny specifically drill, baby, drill, how much will the
8:08 am
deregulation help to bring down all costs? >> listen if they drill, baby, drill and overproducing more than we are producing, certainly the price of energy is coming down. oil has been fluctuating between 66 and $72 range, but there is an oversupply for sure, it's the non-opec countries that are bringing that e additional supplies, opec is trying to control it, but non-opec is controlling it. and that would be a benefit across the spectrum. david: deregulation is not just on energy, he's talking about deregulating the whole -- we saw a huge increase in regulations, regulations are essentially a tax on business. it's an alternate tax, but just as harmful to the cost of doing business in the united states, particularly for smaller companies. big companies have the lawyers and the accounts and small companies don't. are we going to see a renaissance of small business
8:09 am
pause because of this deregulation. >> from your lips-- and they've got lawyers and the lawyers cost money and where they're getting that, from you and me. one way or the other, do thing that deregulation for small business, 100% and i can't wait to see how this unfolds. david: now, inflation is very simple and complicated according to the fed, but basically it's too much money chasing too few goods and you can deal with it in a couple of ways. decrease the money supply which the fed claims its doing and i have questions about that and increasing supplies. and trump wants to build this here and he could incorporate to 15%. i think that ireland has a corporate rate lower than that. would that, if it passes, would that bring a lot of businesses here and create more goods
8:10 am
which would also lower inflation? >> listen, i think it absolutely would create more business and you heard his other point, you know, anybody that wants to come to this country and spend a billion dollars and set up a manufacturing operation and start to make products in this country is going to get quickly permitted, no red tape eliminate the red tape and i think that's positive. yes, i think if we can bring manufacturing back and if we can have a robust manufacturing industry in this country, that's going to help to bring inflation down and a stronger economy and better for america. >> not everybody is on board, not just inside the beltway, but even states, particular states. we just had the new york governor hochul announcing she was going to create a new tax on oil and gas companies in new york, up to 75 billion and it's something called reparations for climate change and she blames them for climate changes which have costs affiliated with it and she says they owe
8:11 am
that to the american people as reparations, first of all, it may not pass in the courts and i hope it doesn't because it's insane if you ask me, but the bottom line is that, if it goes through, it's going to be passed right to the customers and we'll end up paying for that tax. >> passed on, it's not good for the economy and who is kathy hochul who decided to impose this fear, this tax, this fine on all the global energy companies. how about the idea, let's sit down and talk about this, and let's all come together. instead of being, you know, an anti-let's figure out how to do this together. we're going to raise more taxes and more money and fall on your shoulder and your shoulder and everybody in new york. >> it doesn't come out of the pockets of the oil guys. >> no. >> quickly, we have all of these companies many of whom run by people who weren't in
8:12 am
favor of trump, going down to mar-a-lago on bended knee, offering millions of dollars to help trump with the inauguration plans. what do they want? >> how amazing is that? suddenly, they're going down on bended knee, kissing the ring, they want to be on the right side of history, what's happening, whether it's the regulation, whether it's new policies. they want to be a part of this. they saw what he had under the first presidency and this time he's more focused than he was the first time and i think they realized that and they don't want to be left out in the cold and they're coming. it started with mark zuck burger zuckerberg and then the rest of them are coming, and they make sense. david: they want to deal. >> it the administration, to help build a stronger u.s.
8:13 am
economy for americans. david: i think that donald trump knows what's going on. he's been around the ring a few times. >> 100%. david: kenny polcari, happy new year. >> happy new year, thanks for having me. david: and blocking biden from selling off more border wall, and the biden team saying no problem. is it too little, too late? it's your money. and a shocking number of americans say their new year's resolutions is not to make new year's resolutions. kat is here. how about you.

>> the courts have ordered him to stop and you know, it's disgusting that they're going to take that border wall, like you said, we paid top dollar for and selling it for pennies on the dollar and now we've got to re-buy it? ridiculous. it's insulting, wait four years until we take control to sell a big piece of that border. david: and tom homan's reaction, and blocking the order, and homan says he's going to be working to secure
8:18 am
the border as quickly as possible, could the pace in d.c. slow things down? let's ask axios reporter. steven, thanks for be being here. it's obvious what's going on here, it's a parting shot from the biden administration to throw a monkey wrench in the border plan? >> you're right, i think that d.c. slows things down at every level and in trump's first 100 days, that's why the executive pen, the executive powers is going to be so important. the republican -- they have a two seat majority in the house of representatives, senate majority leader who has never been leader before, mitch mcconnell stepping aside after a long time, i would expect there to be hiccups on capitol hill and i think that the president-elect is going to get a lot done through the executive orders in the first 100 days. david: i think so. but again, there's still a
8:19 am
couple of weeks left and there are other things that have happened that seem to be, again, biden kind of trying to make things -- remember, there was a nice meeting between biden and trump at which trump said he thinks it's going to be a smooth transition, but there's somebody there in the white house pulling the strings is not making it so. biden's measure, for example, to assure, i think it's 44,000 bureaucrats to work at home for the next four years, runs counter to what the doge team said they wanted to do to get people back in the office, right? >> that's right. if you think the biden administration, the very first thing they did, especially when it comes to the border was actions that the trump administration had on. so-- the last final days that they're taking these shots at the trump administration, but look, the reality is that the
8:20 am
president is very powerful and president-elect trump will have a ton of power to do whatever he wants once he gets in office in january. david: he will, indeed. but he has another problem and this one is not with biden or with the democrats in general, it's the problem with republicans and the speaker battle. how long could that slow things down? i mean, if it does -- if trump is not successful at phoning these people and saying, stop it, i'm behind speaker johnson and i want to keep him there, if that doesn't happen, how long could that battle take place among republicans? >> it could take a long time. the speaker battle is a tricky one, it's not one where you just need half of your conference to become minority leader, you need to go to the house floor and get half of the house to vote for you. we saw it with kevin mccarthy, round after round after round
8:21 am
of him trying to become speak. i don't know if we will get it that. a lot of republicans on capitol hill who do have confidence in him, but as you know, the folks who is right, the freedom caucus, they're upset by the government funding saga. david: i'm going to try one more question, steven. we're having a little bit of problems. one more, the suggestion floated this week in the hill that democrats may try to block trump from becoming -- becoming the next president, certifying his election because he's guilty of insurrection, something that even jack smith didn't charge him with. does that have any legs at all or is that being dismissed down there? >> it's being dismissed. look, there's some democrats who think that way, but democratic leadership and rit large, especially i cover senate democrats, you talk to
8:22 am
senate democrats. david: okay. all right. i get your point. the point is that basically it's not going anywhere and it shouldn't. it's completely unconstitutional. well, stthank you for axios. what's happening with an immigrant charged with setting a woman on fire, and first, president-elect trump threatening to take over the panama canal, where it's headed next. toward mylowes's money. get free gifts to bring home, member deals to get more projects done and free standard shipping. start earning for free with mylowe's rewards today.

8:27 am
panama canal and while the some are calling the president's claims of chinese at the canal as nonsense, more on senior fellow and author of the book "china is going to war." i covered latin america for 12 years part of my journalistic activity, and i was unknowing how much they were controlling the principal zone parts, atlantic and pacific side and a cruise terminal. they have three bridges across the canal, another one is planned, a lot of chinese companies like huawei and they are in deep in panama right now. >> well, they certainly are and they're also deep in the canal zone, as you pointed out, they've got port operations at
8:28 am
both ends of the canal. general laura richardson when she was the head of u.s. southern command said that those port facilities and enterprises were dual use. in other words, they could be used in a war-time situation and china has many ways it can close down the panama canal. it can, first of all, those bridges, you know, we learned what can happen when a bridge goes down in march at the francis scott key bridge in baltimore when a container ship hit one of the piers. david: absolutely. >> the chinese have four bridges and they can do that and sink ships in the middle of the canal and a number of ways they can take the choke point out of the u.s. of the u.s. david: even if you don't have chinese soldiers marching around as trump said, you clearly have the influence, the military influence, the potential use of that panama canal against our military and if we're in any conflict where we have to use a canal. >> yes, and i believe that
8:29 am
china does have soldiers in the canal zone. so, it is that risk as well. so, it's just comprehensive and it's right for the president to talk about these issues because the u.s. navy is crucially dependent on the canal. and the chinese also want a military base at the tip of south america in argentina at the straits of magellan, and fortunately, they're not going to get it because of the recent election, but they'll try to control the tip of south america as well as the canal. david: obviously, panama, the government there refutes a lot of what the president has been saying and claims the incidents have been overblown and, we're aware of the influence you've been talking about. it wasn't too long ago that democrats were very concerned about this and may seem like ancient history, but when when jfk was running for president in the democratic platform they
8:30 am
talked about reaffirming, quote, our historic policy of opposition of the establishment anywhere in the americas of governments dominated by foreign powers, and they made this statement, the democrats did specifically because of what you said, if we go to war anywhere, we need to canal. >> yes, and since that time, the obama administration formally renounced the monroe dock d doctrine, going back fot to the 1920's. and secretary of state tillerson put back the monroe doctrine and i hope that president trump does that again. although countries may say they don't like american interference we should not allow the chinese to interfere and we know that the chinese are much more influential and interfered throughout south america. david: last question, president xi knows president trump,
8:31 am
donald trump knows president xi, how are they going to deal with this subject? >> i hope that president trump continues forward because he knows, as he repeatedly said, china is an adversary and also said privately that xi jinping is vicious. so, clearly, i think president trump knows that this competition is not a normal one with china and that we've got to take extraordinary measures. david: gordon, we thank you for that. see you later, have a wonderful new year. >> happy new year. david: and migrant officially charged with burning a woman to death on a new york city subway and mayor adams says that doesn't go far enough. what he wants to see happen coming up next. unlock member perks from the palm of your hand. with every purchase, all members earn point toward mylowes's money. get free gifts to bring home, member deals to get more projects done and free standard shipping. start earning for free with mylowe's rewards today. it's time to feed the dogs real food in the right amount.

>> the guatemalan migrants accused of might go a woman on fire on a new york city subway indicted on murder and arson charges on friday. new york city mayor adams wants him to face federal charges on top of the state charges. cb cotton is in our bureau with more on this week's hearing and another disturbing incident on the subway. >> that seems like the case. the illegal guatemalan migrant was not appearing at the hearing before. mta police were alerted to another eerie case, a homeless
8:37 am
man on fire at at mta station, a man in his 50's with burns to both legs and upper body. the man told police he was asleep and woke up on fire according to sources. man is now in critical condition. a krim investigation is ongoing. earlier in the day, the man accused was indicted for murder and arson by a grand jury. new york city mayor eric adams wants him to face federal charges for the heinous act. and the district attorney believes strongly that it belongs in state court. >> state law is more significant in this case. there's a possibility with life without parole. i have a lot of confidence in the people of brooklyn and the people who come and serve on jury duty here. >> so ice has issued a new immigration detainer for
8:38 am
zapeta, but the new york department says they will not honor the request and incoming border czar tom homan says that mayor adams wants to work and other officials should too. >> you should want to remove the safety threats r the community. if you don't want to help us get out of the way and we'll come and do it for you. >> the indictment will be officially unsealed on january 7th when he is expected in court. the woman appears to be homeless and they're doing everything they can using advanced dna and fingerprint testing to try and identify her, david. david: again, now, there's another one just last night. cb, thank you so much. i appreciate it. what does our next guest make of mayor adams push for federal
8:39 am
charges. let's ask inspector, attorney, and paul, another one, another person set another homeless-- we don't know the identity of the woman killed, but a homeless person in critical condition set on fire. i mean, i think that the feds have to come in just to straighten out what's happening in the city. >> yeah, i mean, things on the subway seem to go from bad to worse and we're at a 20-year high for homicides and we're being gaslighted and the woman was set on fire and killed by him. and the video where she was talking about the crime numbers and how great things are. understand something, kathy hochul, the governor of new york, could with a stroke of a pen, change the new york
8:40 am
sanctuary status and she could do it and she just won't do it. david: that's an extraordinary point. not only did she say that subways were safe before this woman was burned to death, but afterward, she was bragging about their subway security system. there's no bragging rights here, a person was killed, everything in their minds is reactive, let the criminals do what they want and then react to it instead of proactive to stop it from happening. >> yeah, that's exactly right. and anything that you would do that would secure the subway system is perceived somehow or another as being draconian, institutionally racist or tropes thrown at the police and law enforcement in general for this city. look, he should not have been on the subway, never mind in the country. because we don't-- alvin bragg's day one memo said i will no longer enforce fare
8:41 am
beating, and they climbed on board with that and you just walk on the subway. and it's become in effect a homeless shelter, people in there with serious mental illness and saw it come to a conclusion that nobody wanted in the daniel penny case, jordan neely should not have been there. and he was supposed to be under mandatory care and there's nothing in the city wherein you can separate people who are hearing voices telling them to hurt people, and nobody steps up. >> and then the revolving door of justice. the d.a. is always downgrading the charges to something below a felony that lets people out before they should be out on the streets and now you have, concerning this one case, the brooklyn d.a. is failing to honor detainment order from ice because it's a sanctuary city and you have this sort of, it
8:42 am
looks like a conflict between the mayor, the mayor does want more cooperation with ice, he met with tom homan, clearly the d.a. and the governor don't. they're still stuck in the sanctuary city deal. who is going to win that battle? >> here is the problem, in new york city, unlike the state, in new york city, the sanctuary status is statutory, and they passed the law, gonzalez is constrained and can't do some things because he can't do it by law and it's our crazy city council who the mayor should be pressuring here, not gonzalez or the d.a. is the city council that passed the sanctuary law. as far as taking the case federal i see no compelling reason to do it. there's talk about a parallel case, and you work this out, as in the mangione case.
8:43 am
and it would be life in prison and all of this is show. david: bringing it further out from new york, there's a backlash to the sanctuary cities and radical d.a.'s. it's happening in san francisco, in l.a., in chicago where radical d.a.'s, a lot of them supported by george soros, were getting -- letting criminals out all the time and the d.a.'s are getting replaced by somebody tougher on crime. could that happen in new york. >> we talked about it yesterday, and i was pessimisti like the '70s and '80s, more the sensibilities come to town. in the election were held tomorrow, alvin bragg would win again. david: you say bottomed out, i don't know how much lower the

>> so we're just three days away from that big ball drop on time square ringing in the new year. according to a survey by statista more americans are hoping to save more green in the new year and more are not planning to make any new year's resolution. joining us is kim tim of and alli green. kat, you have a little one coming in february and your little one has been growing inside for some time now. i'm wondering if you can afford
8:49 am
any resolutions regarding yourself as opposed to what happens when you have another one around. i was going to say if i want today save money in the new year, i probably shouldn't have gotten pregnant in this one because they're really not cheap anywhere, but especially in new york city, having a baby and room to put a baby is an extraordinary expense. but, yeah, i don't really do new year's resolutions in general. i don't think that they really work. if you really want to change something about yourself and that change has to be something deep inside of you that you're motivated by, something much more profound than the date on the calendar, but, yes, i am having a baby in february so, i am ooh, i can't really-- i've got to keep it alive that's as far as it goes. i've got to keep the helpless infant alive and try not to mess it up in any of the million ways that are apparently possible to do that. david: and again, we were talking about it. your ego disappears when you have a kid. >> probably good for me.
8:50 am
david: good for everybody, i think, in a way, but alli in some ways, your ego disappears when you have pets, i'm not comparing pets and human beings, i know there's a difference, but i do love my pets and sometimes people spend a lot of time. do you have any resolutions regarding yourself or the felines in your life? >> yeah, i mean, definitely to keep my pets alive, too. that will be a multi-year resolution, but i think i usually try to make very broad new year's resolutions and like to become a better person because nobody can hold you too much with that. and kat's right, they never work, people aren't held to them in any way and no one makes good ones. we should make resolutions for our friends, i think, tell them what to do in the new year. when someone says i need to stop drinking caffeine. no, stop drinking alcohol. that would be the way to go, i

need to lose 10 pounds, no, you need to stop drinking alcohol, one thing across the board. david: kat, one thing i noticed changed already since the election, maybe it's just me, maybe it's happened to you. i sense-- your book title is "you can't joke about that" after the trump election, people are less on edge what they can and can't say and certainly what they can and can't joke about now than before the election. have you sensed that or just me? >> i've heard people outright say it, i can say that because trump won. it's a matter behind closed doors, people would say things and pretending to be outraged and gaps between what people believe and willing to say that they believe. i think we have more in common and a lot more chill than we kind of sometimes will pretend to be to kind of put on airs. david: well, we're chill, but,

and airlines will charge you for bags under your eyes and charge for everything and people get upset about it and check your bag, lose your bag. it's impossible to relax, i don't think it's going to happen in the new year. david: kat, we're overcharged in an electronic way with the devices that we have because the social media, everybody wants to show off for social media, we're ones to talk, of course, we're on television where this is the king of social media, but the bottom line, people just seem to be more spoiled as a result of what they see on social media. one bad turn deserves another. >> oh, yeah, there's absolutely something to that, but you love seeing people take the shot on social media live when you get to watch behind the scenes, little action and as soon as the picture is done, they're miserable for fighting with their spouse. it's great when you get to see it live.
