joe biden never gave. >> a lasting speech you saw the photos of the family behind biden they were seated at theal side during the speech looking k like they were holding a seance and with the credits rolling trying just move over jane hissa old man persona by releasing a video showing him as a milk shake guzzling goofball grandpa. just give me 5 minutes on make m you that milk shake and still waiting for that milk shake i think when you heard the words a oligarchy other last night what went for your mind last night week. >> that he had noida what he was

talking about his slurring was extra noticeable tonight withyo eight words becoming one long tray and your ailment the medical staff and pretty sure is already checked out the t batteries in hishe life alert ty just left axelrod is so smart when he said that it's of the best speech i've ever heard by joe biden. the bar is pretty low like thi saying this is the best i colonoscopy i've e ever had regrouped give my regards to the doctor right. joe clearly doesn't get it he is like the guy who is supposed to make a wedding toast recites all of his escapades of the groom ii front of horrified guests theres is also something which makesat all criticism pointless he's blissfully ignorant of the past four years. another analogy criticizing a drunk who blacked out in doesn't remember he ran for walmartd

naked singing wesi are the champions. to him ithe t never happened thi why his speech left everybodyry colder thabon his body temperate there is no closure because with biden you can't come to terms s with somebody whomo doesn't know what the terms are. it is a window into politics in general all you noticed was the artifice the individual wasn't there right the speech was but now in bitter the m enterprisese meaningless and fake you just saw the jerk it had the a offensive cd you get avenued photoframe you areto only suppod to look at the frame not what's in it. it was a frame with nobody in it. f nicein to us for starting to sa. saying nice about the farewelll, address anything it's in the

rearview mirror and there is the site for the last final speech b no substance or direction nobod, will remember in a week and they talked about a cease-fire thate, when ted attempt at soaring i rather i wt and also faulting speechwriters for this. you have: a guy who is humiliad basically somebody lost -- was kicked out of his party said heh wouldn't beat donald trump wave know he was losing by 400 electoral votes. who somebody who is not a great oror eight or they try to give him lines that may be reagan could deliver and that they add on the pet project things for the things they're going to do and they would leave the white house where do you think the tech oligarchies tech is coming from houston to you thank you will see the super pacs fighting against the big attack a guy's day about them when they were

helping them on a russiann disinformation package theyey didn't care about any of thath they didn't care about them whem they were calling them telling them to take down disinformation on covid now they care. and i get a lot of those guys of turn on a dime that's how the election went i felt like at the end when he was talking about needing to get dark money out or politics that's what sent me over the edge it says every president needs to there's a chance to say goodbye and he served 50 years needs a patriot or whatever instead the democrats got more dark money than any entity in the historys of politics and this past election blew it all and last week he gave the medal ofre freedom toed george soros how cn you say that every polling shows nobody feels he's done a job good job. last night we had a fox news

poll mark came out today the "usa today" will nobody thinks anything is better are they trying to position themselves now against tech tycoons after losing them. >> i don't think so i don't think the democratic party wrotn the speech i don't agree what everybody said but the sentiment i agree with. speech could've been more cheerful and optimistic and talk more about his accomplishments or where he was born and raisedf and hoinw those values define ad inform his public service andad you woulerd hope the next generation of leaders would believe in the experiment of america and success of the nation we are accountable for. i don't believe you should ever begrudge people success and people came from humble backgrounds i understand the need and desires to want more growth for every american and

for all of us to be able to s share in the growth and prosperity and give people equal chances to succeed but going after the innovation and attacker community i love the word oligarchy it's one of the words i didn't get right in my eighth grade english exam so i've learned and known ever since then. nobody was trying to get back a under 11 presidents have been able to do this. a farewellar addressew like thig had everhty right to do what he did i would've done iti differently and they would have wanted to end on a cheery moreeu optimistic note because he did h lot of things the country i think will be appreciative of but listening to that i think greg and dana your points. kate clerg you say some thing earlier about it this is what people might remember his lesset marks. >> nobody will remember.

audie would take the opportunitf to warn the country about all l these things thaast he never talked about in the last four years. > to his credit use the word oligarchy is familiar with russian oligarchs who paido hunter, ukrainian oligarchs who paid him so to use the word is actually close to the businesshn deals that made his family richr that he will try to enjoy given he pardoned hunter for therdon crimes that came with enriching his family that way. in terms of the tone of the speech it showed how dishonesty was when he ran for office inse 2020 hd e was supposed to be a uniter saving the stall the country restoring unity and then instead he came out at the end as one of the most far left aggressive presidents we've ever had it's difficult to talk abou cheery accomplishments when your

>> katie: well the trump cabinet confirmation blitz continues as his nominees steamroll the democrats. today for more of the president-elect's nominees faced questioning from senators during confirmation hearings. character witnesses for pam bondi testifying on her behalf and trump attorney general pick who vows to rid the doj of -- lays the smack down on those who want to play politics. >> you are trying to engage be in a gotcha. nobody has asked me to investigate -- >> the president has -- >> we should be worried about the crime rate in california right now -- >> you are aware -- >> your job will be -- i am speaking -- your job will be to protect voters. >> i hope you answer, miss bondi -- >> you pointed your finger at me -- >> let me -- >> i'm not going to be bullied.

>> if president-elect trump asks, suggests, or hints that u.s. attorney general should investigate one of his perceived political enemies among would you do so? >> senator hirono, i wish you had met with me. had you met with me, we could have discussed many things -- >> i am listening to you now. could you respond to the question? >> katie: so, dana, would you like to comment on the exchange with the senator from hawaii? >> dana: getting to see her so much this week, the senator from hawaii commit is like watching bambi learn to walk. she starts off by reading the questions that her staff has prepared for her but she does it so slowly and it eats up all of her time which means the person answering doesn't have a chance to answer. the other thing is watching pam bondi yesterday, it's like you know how the whole campaign for the democrats against republicans is how much they hate women? like, it's unbelievable, especially the women coming out of florida. you have ashley moody being

announced to take over for marco rubio today, i thought that was kind of interesting. it also is jarring i think for the senators to finally have a different generation to deal with, right, the age difference of the senators and the nominees is quite stark. and noticeable. and the energy level right the there. today, dave ehrenberg is his name, a democrat who ran for the attorney general seat when pam bondi was running, he lost to the democratic primary. pam bondi went on to win that race, and then she hired dave ehrenberg to come and work with her on the opiate crisis, and he testified on pam bondi's behalf today and said you don't have to worry about her when it comes to following the rule of law. she will not be pressured. she is amazing. so to have something like that in this kind of environment to speak for you is something else. the other thing i would mention is this. went after scott bessent, of course going for the treasury

secretary position, and this quote just stuck out to me. non-white said we are in a clean energy arms race with china. will you be on the side that is for us or against us? and bessent, so comment smart, said china is going to build 100 new coal plants this year. we are in an energy arms race, and it is just refreshing to see some really interesting people come on board and try to get to be part of this cabinet. >> katie: suggest you have shifty schiff upgrading from the u.s. house to the senate, says a lot about california, unfortunately, and his questioning was about liz cheney rather than about real big issues facing the country at what the attorney general is going to have to focus on. >> jesse: if you close your eyes and don't know who is talking, you would think whoopi, joy, and sunny were asking the questions. paranoid questions about is trump going to do a third term, are you going to lay hand on liz cheney? these are not questions the

middle class cares about. this party thinks they want to get back to repping the middle-class. no one cares about this stuff. they already rendered a verdict on whether trump is going to be a dictator or not. but they are still clinging to this stupid playbook that is making them look even worse. you are starting to see what happens when the machine is broken. usually you expect these perfectly timed, explosive allegations to drop the morning of, or these narratives, these stinging questions, and the media is all colluding with the press -- with the democrats. you are usually kind of like, oh, my god, are these guys going to survive? that's gone. all of their donors don't want to give come all of their tech guys switched sides. the media is falling apart. journalists are going to private -- it is done. you are looking at a system, if this is going to continue this way, there is no resistance at

all. >> katie: harold come on that point, the process and getting these nominees actually confirmed can take quite a while. is there room here for senate democrats to work with the majority leader to try and push these nominees at a faster pace so the entire washington, d.c., government spectrum can get on with the american people's business? >> harold: well, i'm not sure how much -- first of all, i hope they do, to answer your question, i hope the president has an opportunity, two thinks they have sweeping authority, with pardons, and a lot of authority with this year, democrat or republican, very hard to turn back. i didn't see any of these nominees come i don't think our fit, i may disagree with some of them, i thought the democrats, to your point, jesse, they were petty, predictable, myopic, and to your point, it was just unserious. some of the questions. i think when you get to this point and lost the race, you said it before, greg, we are

still having lost this raised as you have to be thinking about the future and the things that matter. pam bondi gave as good as she got there, and those senators should understand that, but why not ask her, if you are serious about cashless bail, are you going to use it to your power as an attorney general to help cities across the country deal with crime? she talked about crime in california. if you are serious about mental health issues in your community where you have a lot of people on the streets, we do here in new york and other big cities do, ask if she is open to innovative, accretive programs to help cops at the local level deal with these issues and would she be willing to work with the hud secretary to deal with these things, take about your cities. i have said before, if the president is coming in who wants to do the kinds of things this president was to do, they're going to be things you disagree with him on but you have to sit with your top people where you live and say what are the five things that he can help us on? and ask those questions of those cabinet secretaries. i thought scott bessent, who is a friend, i hope they get confirmed, i hope all of them get confirmed, to be honest with

you, because you are not going to stop them. they may not be my cup of tea, katie, but there can putting themselves in a way that are going to help them not only get approved, but likely help them advance the agenda that they have laid out before the -- >> katie: greg, one of the things i liked about pam bondi's testimony yesterday is when she said we are getting back to the basics. we are going to go after cartels and criminals and drugs, so she is getting back down to what she is supposed to be doing, rather than his academic, woke ideology that has been in government the last four years. >> greg: i'm tired, frankly, of everyone saying that jesse is the shallow one at fox. [laughter] >> jesse: you are tired of that? >> greg: i am tired. i want to be the shallow one. so can we just admit what we are all thinking? republican nominees are h-o-t. though interrogators are n-o-t. democrats are nothing but a

collection of threes, may be a four, but mostly threes, gussied up, 3.2. think about the irony of tim kaine interrogating pete hegseth over heavy drinking. did you look at tim kaine? he looks like he just spent a 12 day bender after getting tossed from a homeless shelter. he looked like nick nolte's mug shot. how i want to steer this into an unlikely area. why do republicans look better? because they have a system. you are seeing the physical and the psychological unite. it is why pete and sean and pam, they tower over these unkempt goofballs. we know, and i am a health expert, as you know, years of working in health journalism, won many awards, we know when you put junk in your body you actually feel bad afterwards, you kind of get depressed about it. you say i am not going to do it anymore. what about the reverse? how do the junk thoughts when

they inhabit your brain make your body feel? it is why the left-wing activists don't just sound miserable, they look really, really miserable. negative thoughts generated by a victim mentality, elevated by the left, will change your posture, your skin, your fitness. why bother taking yourself seriously if the world is out to get you? if the world is out to get you, there is nothing you can do, so forget it. you are seeing the left say that fitness is bigoted, obesity should be a protected class, you are noticing how when they are faced with people who are aspirational in their work and in their physical presence, they want to destroy them. and i am here today to defend physically attractive and the sexually appealing. i want to be your gandhi, your martin luther king or malcom x or nelson mandela. >> dana: negative thoughts make you feel like --

desk and a tradition carried on by vice president and president since the 1940s. >> i am fully aware that i am a public face of a lot of our work, and as you all know, we have spent long hours, long days, and months and years together, it is not my nature two quietly into the night, so don't worry about that. going to continue getting work done until monday, and then i will keep you posted. >> dana: and paging dr. jill biden, the first lady is so clearly very bitter at the woman who led the coup against her husband, saying the stuff of nancy pelosi, "we were friends for 50 years. she is using her teacher's voice now and it was disappointing. being france for 50 years, you and i have been friends for 15, 16 years, you would never tell me to jump off a bridge, that is what the bidens were asking the democrat party to do. >> greg: nancy did all she

could. she lied for four years. what else can you expect from her? you know what the deal is? everyone loves to be a winner, and no one wants to be a loser. you know, the critics say trump is all about himself, but the bigger point is when he wins, you win because he takes you along for the ride. yothey are not on the right. trump is your lawyer, so if he wins, personally and professionally it is good for him, but it is also good for you because he is your lawyer. it just so happens good things take longer to happen and it took time for people to come around to this outcome, and i have said it before, joe biden was the worst halftime show in history. trump won, trump two, terrible halftime show with maroon 5, and now we can't wait for the second half to resume. >> dana: this is the harris definition of win, listen to

this. >> our definition of the win is the definition that takes us over a period of time, where part of how we measure the win is are we making progress? how we measure the win is based on the knowledge that it is an enduring fight. and that we must be strong. and that whatever the outcome of any particular moment, we can never be defeated. >> greg: wow. >> dana: it goes on from there. >> greg: that's amazing. >> jesse: so even when you lose, you win. >> dana: yes, that's how it works. >> jesse: at the end of the game, you have less points they other team, you didn't lose because the game just keeps going, and you keep improving, and it's how you played the game. this is an inspiring speech by a coach. >> greg: inspired by --

>> jesse: how do you spell that? >> greg: you are shallow, our new? >> jesse: i stopped drinking while i had a problem. >> dana: no problem. >> jesse: so washington is about power. how to get it, how to keep it. remember in mid-july how bad biden was doing, he had covid come bombed the debate, the donors weren't giving. nancy had to amputate, she had to come it was business, it wasn't personal. the kamala thing, she things it is one-sided loyalty. she thinks she has been so loyal to jill. she was asked would you do anything differently? nothing comes to mind. she didn't even criticize him at all, to the detriment of her own campaign. meanwhile he is out there leaking about her, sabotaging her, calling everybody garbage in the country, saying oh, i could have won. you have to be kidding me, man. i have stood with you every step of the way, and you do this? so here is her chance. she is supposed to be getting the biggest book advance of any vice president in american

history. >> dana: who is going to read it? >> jesse: if she tells the truth, it will sell more than greg's books, almost more than greg's books, because that is what people want. if she tells the truth about the last four years, i will buy the book, i will buy six of them, but if she doesn't and it is platitude, she's got nowhere to go. >> dana: okay, may be, harold, is that with the democratic party needs? someone to write a barn burner and tell all of the things -- >> jesse: cleanse. >> dana: get it out. >> harold: new. [laughter] what we need more is a reckoning with the party of listening to the country and an understanding that history says that when a party, democrat or republican, controls the white house and both chambers is this party does, president trump enjoys, the midterm is always a referendum on whether or not they were able to use that power. president trump, we talk about, it was a great victory, it was a resounding victory. democrats will say a few million more people, a couple hundred

thousand more people in states voted one way we would have won, well, they didn't. he won with a big number and he won the house and the senate. republicans nor should president trump misconstrue this. there was a basic calculation here. one, people were tired of the border was not secure. they wanted a president who would do it. two, they want america to be strong or than china and russia, and they believe president trump have a better plan to do it. perhaps even more fundamentally, jesse, they wanted to pay less for insurance and food and for clothing and prescription drugs and for the things that their kids need most. they wanted protection from their own neighborhoods of crime and their kids protected from the hills of social media and even a crippling national debt. the president will be judged on these issues. the nonsense that we're talking about right now, the kind of pettiness that we demonstrated in some of these hearings -- and these are my friends, many of these democrat senators, some of them did fine but most of them i didn't sense there was any concerted effort, there was an understanding that the country is looking forward. any effort on looking backward only cripples us more.

let's look forward, get a plan, and work with the president where we can come and counter him where we think he is wrong. >> dana: katie, i don't understand something i read this morning. >> jesse: how do you i feel? [laughter] >> dana: kamala harris and her husband are looking at apartments here in new york. and yet everybody thinks she wants to run for governor in california. so what is happening? >> katie: i don't think they know exact what their future holds, but she did say i am not want to go quietly in the night, so don't worry about that. they are going to try and revive her in some way. i am interested to know if the democratic party wants her to leave because of the trump loss like they did with joe biden, just go away, want nothing to do with you, or if they are willing to try again. this would be like the 80 millionth revival of who she is, she going to be in new yorker after she was trying to be all these things and they tried to roll her out multiple times? i don't know. the fight isn't just between these top leaders of the party -- obama, pelosi, the

bidens -- it is there voters. left leaning, but so political people who watched what they did to joe biden, and even if they didn't really like him, they didn't like the process. they didn't like that he was taken off with little explanation and that kamala harris was instilled. you are seeing that with a lot of left-wing comedians being able to joke about it now. they have to figure it out, but they are going to try to roll out her p.r. once again and see if it works. >> dana: we will see. >> harold: on "saturday night live" -- >> greg: why are you looking at me? so racist, you expect me to know that because i am white? >> dana: really, harold, really. unbelievable. coming up, time is running out for tiktok. can trump save it? ♪ ♪ doctor box, there were many failed attempts to fix my teeth. i retouched all my wedding photos, and it was even affecting my health.

[laughter] and i thought that this topic is not as interesting as the fact that dana perino steals from the homeless. >> jesse: care to defend yourself, dana? >> dana: i don't even know if i should try. okay, the moral dilemma was this, if you're at a hotel and they have really nice toiletries, do you ever take

them, or robes, and now you probably can't, but way back in the day when i worked on capitol hill, if i went on a business trip for the church group, i would take the extra toiletries and we would give them to the homeless. i didn't take them from the homeless. why am i explaining this? >> greg: no, no, no, that is not the story. you were supposed to give the toiletries to the homeless, but you said you did and you kept them. >> harold: going to defend dana -- >> dana: you guys didn't understand -- >> greg: and it happened at watergate! >> dana: and i hope this gets on tiktok. a couple of things. there have been a couple of interesting deep dive reports on tiktok, the first talked about tiktok's algorithms, the second these audio recordings that tiktok and police say, talking to china. nobody was for banning the app. the app can exist. the ownership must change. that is what the congress said.

and i don't understand why that is so hard. why can't we just get someone to buy it like jesse? >> greg: you have elon, you have kevin o'leary that are interested, some of your buddies, mr. rich fancy pants harold. are we kind of hypocritical now? i feel like i am because i was raging against tiktok as a propaganda machine, and now i am going, not so fast. even i can admit when i am wrong, harold. >> harold: so dana nailed this. the problem is who owns it. we have -- nothing is in dispute about the data and the amount of data they have, really the information about all of the information this company has. is it in our national security interests to allow china to have access to it? that is what is at stake. mike waltz, i hope he will be confirmed and be great at nsa. he things the president can issue some sort of executive

order. the protestant cannot issue an executive order to overturn a law that has been passed by congress and signed by the president. what he can do is have congress overturn that law and signing new law, but the issue here, and everyone needs to understand, dana, you nailed it, this is not about -- i don't use tiktok -- but everyone has a right to do it. the problem is who owns that data? are we comfortable as americans had in china, the chinese communist party having that? i'm not. that is what congress said, he group of republicans and democrats passed it, a democratic president signed it, and the court is likely to weigh in on this tomorrow. i hope president trump, if he doesn't like it, than ask the congress and the senate to pass a law that overturns it. i will be curious to know which of those congressmen and senators are going to go home and say i believe it's okay for the chinese government to own all of this information about my kids, myself, my neighbors, and other great americans. >> greg: you know it's interesting, katie, about tiktok, is i think what had a bigger impact than tiktok was

liberals of tiktok. because we never -- tiktok has billions of users or hundreds of millions of users, all of these crazy people on there, and we wouldn't have known how crazy the woke got if it wasn't for liberals of tiktok going through and finding out this stuff. it has a greater impact than i think people realize. >> katie: you are saying we shouldn't ban it because lives expose themselves on tiktok -- >> greg: literally. >> katie: don't go to -- to the mechanics, it will get caught up in court and someone will sue and they're trying to give bytedance some more time, but the bottom line is they have to divest and they can keep the app but they don't want to divest because the chinese communist party gets all this information, and is a spy tool for a foreign government, a bad foreign government. >> jesse: i wanted to be owned by our government. the government that spies on us. the cia. we can't have china own it, we have to have the cia own it.

that is really the argument here. do you want to be spied on? your own government or the chinese government? and there is no way that joe biden was ever going to be able to get in the middle of this. trump the only kind of president who can do a deal like this, bring everyone together, and he is doing it before he is elect elected. >> greg: a ball or move for a ceo's to start working before your first day, you know what i mean? committed everything set up of every time i had a first day on the job, fired everybody the week before. because i like working alone. all right, we've got to move on. up next, trump and vance's official portraits are here. trump is on the left. ♪ ♪ so, what are you thinking? i'm thinking...
