> pope benedict passed awayt 95. catholic leaders around the world are honoring his passing today. he's most remembered for outside the church for his surprise resignation. jackie heinrich ims traveling with president biden, we begin with lauren green, she's live outside the vatican city with a look at the pontiff's passing. hi, lauren. >> reporter: hey, jillian. there are preparations for the viewing and funeral of pope benedict xvi. it is really unprecedented. journalists are asking where is there a guest list of people who may be attending. we are learning of the last moment of benedict's life. the pope died yesterday and his apartment at the vaticans garden. benedict's last word were said in german,

his native tongue. jesus, i love you. pope francis celebrated the new year's mass today only mentioning benedict in the faithfuls and all over the world tweeted of benedict will be remembered of a lifetime devotion to the church and may he continue to be an inspiration to all. benedict will be repped as the first pope in the sixth century to resign. francis is scheduled to go visit the casket and body of pope benedict. the body will be moved tomorrow morning to st. peters biasilica >> the world will be watching that, lauren green reporting. thank you. >> let's turn to jackie

heinrich. >> good morning, jillian. president biden also released a statement commemorating the death of barbara walters. we have seen little of president biden on his vacation before the new republican-controlled congress greets him in 2023. >> president biden keeping a light agenda on holiday in saint croix where he said he'll firm up his reelection plan. >> there is an election coming up? i didn't know that? the white house is gearing up for a fight with republicans in the second half of this term. >> the biden administration sent a signal loud and clear that we'll do everything in our ability to prevent and block your oversight. >> the white house rejecting oversight demands from house republicans made the last two years claiming they'll carry no weight coming from the minority and will have to resubmit it.

>> we'll copy and paste and only change the date. >> the white house is stalling the investigations into the southern border and fentanyl and the energy crisis and covid origins and more. while the white house claims, they intend to work in good faith with the gop, official statement also took the dig liking subpoena threat, suggesting house republicans may be more time thinking of how to get books on hannhannity than preparing to together to help the american people. republicans blasting the administration over the southwest airlines melt down while president biden is in the caribbean. >> pete buttigieg does not have any inside of what he's doing. >> transportation secretary vowing accountability. >> we are in a position to use enforcement powers and fines to hold airlines to the things that they have now committed to us and pledged to us in writing. >> and the white house has kept

quiet on the house speaker's race. leader mccarthy is still short of the vote he would need to lead the chamber. at this point, it is unclear who biden will have to work with in the new congress. jillian? >> jackie heinrich reporting, thank you. house republicans prepare to swear in new members, they're saying good-bye to some long time colleague. this includes texas republican, kevin brady, he's stepping down after 26 years in office. he was always a major force in passing the 2017 trump tax cut. he's known inside washington for working across the isle with democrats. here is how ways and means chairman richard neil puts it. i trusted him. congressman brady joins me now for a bit of an exit

interview. welcome back to "fox news sunday" and happy new year to you. >> happy new year to you, jillian. >> let's kickoff the white house struggles. a handful is committed and not backing mccarthy. take a listen, there is no plan b here, the plan to get him elected is speaker. it does not matter. politico is reporting a group of house republicans approached steve scalise quietly, you got to be ready. is that true? >> my hope is kevin mccarthy elected for speaker and he led us of the majority and frankly, he has worked so hard to get us in this place and he's ready to lead. i am hopeful that we can get the conference. we have a big battle ahead. >> the reality is he can only

afford to lose four votes. at least five vowed not to vote for him. what would you advise in terms of concession to make happen of what you just laid out. >> i think kevin mccarthy understands his conference in a big way. he's worked with folks across the whole spectrum and he's funded frankly many of these races to make sure they are back to center district and we are back to stop this radical agenda and so i am confident he can pull these final votes together. it is not an easy job. speaker pelosi two years ago had to bring in sort of sneak in several covid positive quarantine members of her conference to try to cover the votes together. it is not easy to be speaker these days but i believe kevin mccarthy can unite us. >> it is not easy. sir, let's ta tatalk about george santos,

congressman-elect is facing a slew of investigations. he lied to everything and his religion and employment history and republican leadership though no condemnation, largely silent all together on the issue. do you think kevin mccarthy should condemn him?? >> i think this is troubling so ma mamany ways. at the end of t day, this is a decision whether he resigns or stays need to be made between him and the voters who elected him. he certainly has to consider resigning. i don't know this young man, he does not need my advice but one he can try politically ride it out. we have seen it happen in washington, d.c., or he can take the tougher choice, own every lie that he's made and apologize to everyone and anyone for as long as it takes. secondly, you got to change your life here

there is a real problem here. we are a country of second chances. when people are willing to turn their life around and own up to it and do what it takes and earn respect and trust again, we are willing to do that. i am hopeful he chooseses the right path here. >> looking for a yes or no answer on this, too. you chaired committee in the past, if you were chaired of the committee he's serving on, would you be comfortable of him on the committee? >> right now he's not the committee i led, he's got to take some huge steps if he wants to gain trust in respect of his district. he's going to make that decision. >> um, talking about the former president's tax returns now. you railed against the democrats' decision to release those. let's look back. >> overall objections and opposition democrats of the ways and means committee unleashed

the dangerously critical weapon, taxpayers. the era of political targeting and congress' enemy's list is back. >> as you well know, sir, it is this tradition dating back to the late '60s. the president voluntarily or candidates releasing their tax returns. why is president trump be an exception to history? >> well, this is not about whether president trump should release it. that's not the law. it is a tradition. it is not what is in those tax returns. that's between the taxpayers and the irs. this is a dangerous new president. it overturns 50 years protections for american taxpayers that began in the watergate era. now, that's all changed and the ways and means chairman of either party has unlimited power to target private citizens, not just

public officials or political enemies or supreme court and justices but private americans to seize their tax returns and make it public. and so every american ought to be frighten by this president because as i said the enemy's list is back and you may find yourself on it. >> take a listen to the former president in his own words and i will get your reaction. >> i am under audit, i won't do it? if i am not under audit, i would do it. while i am under audit, i would not give my taxes. i would love to give them but i am not going to do it while i am under audit. it is very simple. >> in release, sir, there is no evidence that the president was under audit during the years he told the american people multiple times that he's using that to not release his returns voluntarily.

>> in the return we saw, he's audit for all six of those tax return years and a number of eight of his business venture affiliated as well. those audits are not yet complete. this is not the point here, jillian. >> as far as he knows he's under audit from 2009 to 2013. he told the american people he was under audit when he was running for office. >> so, to my point, all of those six years that have been released are still under audit. the truth the matter is, it is not about whether he should release it or not. it is about whether americans should be targeted by members of congress for political purposes and having their private taxpayers return release and made public. this is the new reality. i think this is a dangerous new precedent and every american should be frighten. >> sir, i want to get some clarification, you are saying you have seen evidence of the president was in fact under

audit between 2015 and 2020, is that is right? >> in a six years of a return is released, he's under audit by the irs in all six years. >> i want to turn to this now, give you an opportunity to reflect your time in washington. when you look back, what do you think americans will remember most about the trump's years? >> well, i think you saw a very progrowth agenda and i am proud of the work i did with the president on reforming the tax bill because we saw 6 million americans lifted out of poverty and we saw household income growing more than one year than in all eight years under president obama and vice president biden. we saw in coming quality strengthen and many manufacturing jobs coming back and america's leapfrog, the most competitive in the world,

that lifted people of blue collar and lifted the people up sdp their wages were growing twice as fast as inflation. so different than what we have seen under president biden. that progrowth and security agenda, i think is very strong and that's what he'll be remembered for. >> you say that you are optimistic as you look forward for the country. you told the country chronicle, right now, sir, as you know house republicans are planning to open the new congress for a whole slew of investigations into president biden and his family. do you worry that looking backwards will take time and attention and energy away from solsolving current problem lik inflation? >> yes, i think that's only one element of a very strong agenda. how republicans made it clear that we want a nation that's

safe and an economy that's strong. we want a washington that's accountable and want to feature freedom. america has been in the dark for the last two years of what the government is doing. there is a lot of ways that needs to be addressed. getting this economy back on track is job number one. for republicans creating a nation that's safe in our communities along the border, equally a priority for us. i would not be frankly misled by one element holding watch accountable. this is not an agenda that's so sorely lacking. as i said, i am optimistic abouts the future. i know who i work with in congress. there is ahm middle class. they are serious about their jobs and working hard and trying to do the right thing. i wish people could see more of

that working class in congress, you would have more confidence as i do. >> well, we can hope that we'll hear from them more in 2023. congressman brady, thank you so much for taking time for us today. thank you for your service and best of luck. >> thank you, ma'am, take care. americans could see top find in administration officials grillment we'll bring in our sunday group to debate what 2023 will bring for the white house. and if president's plans for the back half of his term. we'll be right back. i can't believe it. here we are at the let us do good village. first community like this in america. a hundred families together that lost their loved ones. the kids that lost their mom or dad protecting us. and today is the day that we're going to deliver the first beautiful home to the thornton family. some wonderful people donated. a bunch of land in land o' lakes.

to let us do good village. having stood here on this same property with a shovel and now seeing a home where a family is going to move in. built all of our roads, all of our infrastructure is here. we've got several homes are under construction. and this is absolutely amazing to me. it's going to have a pool gym, rec center, beautiful facility, a movie theater where the folks, again, can live and heal and grow together. to see it completely done, to see it fully furnished, it's a blessing to be able to get a home like this. my children struggle a lot, but i feel like this community will bring a closeness with other children that are struggling with the same thing that they are. this is going to be my home. if you look around, can you just imagine the families like minded folks? that's going to be here. here at the let us do good village, we can bring all those folks together. this is something that america is missing. people seeing these things happen

inspire others to do good. we need to take care of our gold star families. tunnel to towers does that. this is a foundation that you should be a part of because not just helping me, but there's so many people like me that need help. this time next year, we hope to have another dozen houses done with another dozen families in. it's a way to say thank you to the americans that paid and made the ultimate sacrifice. every inch of this community has meaning.

that's timothy dolan. he passed away on sunday morning. let's bring in our fox news contributor, charlie hurts and kat katkathy lucy and richard f

happy new year to all of you. thanks so much for waking up early to be with me this morning. >> good morning. >> happy new year. >> outside the church, he also led his life by examples from humans of all walks of life. >> i think that's absolutely right, when you think about pope bened benedict, he resigned. he was the first pope to do so since the 15th century which we heard lauren green talked about here at the top of the show here. that was his legacy. he realized he was not the right person to lead the church in this new era and gave it over to pope francis. at the same time while he resigned, he remained quiet and he'll be remember for that. the leadership of staying quiet and resigning and knowing that i am not the strongest person to lead is something very powerful. >> certainly a complex legacy. let's turn now to politics.

katherine, we talked about in coming representative santos a moment ago with kevin brady, how does this type of a thing make it pass all the political operatives whose jobs it is to vet candidates and specifically how do democrats drop the ball twice? >> it is pretty stun thing and of the statements and we are still unpacting all of it, correct? i think there is a lot more we need to know of what happens in terms of candidate vetting and review from democrats. there was some reporting from local newspaper raising some questions before the election but that didn't really get picked up for whatever reasons. and, now you are in the situation where all of this has been revealed after he's been elected which creates problems. you are hearing calls from both sides of for investigation and questions of what to do and part

of his bio we are trying to figure out and where his finances are coming from. it really puts kevin mccarthy in difficult position as he heads into this vote on tuesday over the speakership. he's careful so far not to say anything critical about santos because this is a vote that he may need. >> charlie, how do you see republicans handle this? as they then welcome him into committee assignments. >> well, it truly is a remarkable example of a failure on part of the media, i think, to smoke more of this out before now. but, i think it is also important to remember that the guy does represent 750,000 new yorkers but he didn't just win. he won by six points, which is kind of extraordinary considering all that we are learning now. he sounds like a

real nut-job. it is not the fir first example where the med dropped the ball on this thing. other politicians who's done well for themselves and not the least of joe biden for himself spending his entire career lying about his biography and lying about his accomplishments and where he went to school. it is kind of interesting how much attention is being given to this guy while he does represent 750,000 new yorkers and that's a very important position, it is not like he's the leader of the party or anything like that. so, and i think it is probably god that we are digging into all of this and i wish we would have done it before the election, that may have been more helpful. >> for voters, richard, democrats have slammed house republicans oversight in congress. they lasered in the

investigation surrounding hunter biden, they say straightup the american people do not care. >> listen, this is going to be the question that we have to ask ourselves the next couple of days. what do the american people actually care about? do they want to see more blockbuster investigations in front of all the camera or they want to see congress that gets things done. right now as we speak kevin mccarthy does not have enough votes to be the speaker of the house and so as he makes more concessions to the far right, member of the freedom caucus of this party and give them things like anthony fauci and fbi and how rioters were treated when they were incarcerated. these will be questions the american people will ask us. on top of all that, jillian, they have to deal with

representative-elect, george santos and the lie after lie that comes out. while we are seeing some, trying to make comparisons between him and other elected officials. the difference is we know where those officials went to college and what they did. with george santos, we don't even know if that's his real name. >> joe biden got hounded one of his presidential campaign for lying and making stuff up. >> sure, saying you worked at goldman sachs and you didn't. >> i don't know how those lies are worse than the lies joe biden continues to tell today. >> or your employees used to work at the pulse nightclub. that's not true. the lies keep coming with santos. >> have you heard of santos before. >> we got to point out he even lied about his own religion.

>> katherine, what is it going to be like with this new congress to watch nancy pelosi aan anand aan ananstenny hoyer on the sideline. >> it is a new world and however it unfolds on the republican side. i think the big thing we need to be watching as we have been talking about it is how they are going to work together or not work together across the isle and with the white house, obviously, we are not expecting to see the kind of collaboration we have seen in the last two years. there is been significant bipartisan legislation, infrastructure and guns over the summer. there are some things that they have to work on like the debt ceiling. we'll see how they'll work together and house republicans have been very clear about a serious investigation and oversight that they want to do and how that'll define the next two years. >> panel, we got to take a break

right here. the supreme court case that's putting a praguetist justice against a purist and tearing up washington in the process. we'll be right back. young lady who was, you know, mid 30s, couple of kids, recently went through a divorce. she had a lot of questions when she came in. i watched my mother go through being a single mom. at the end of the day, my mom raised three children, including myself. and so once the client knew that she was heard. we were able to help her move forward. your client won't care how much you know until they know how much you care.

southwest is going to have

not only make them financially whole whole whole but find a w trust. i want to see what that means. >> i want to hear accounting of it and i want to hear pete buttigieg that he's going to audit that $7 billion. >> pete buttigieg promised that he'll pressure southwest airlines to make amends of tens of thousands of customers left stranded during christmas. they'll have to do a whole lot more than that to keep the airlines accountable. we are back with the panel. katherine, so pete buttigieg insists the airlines will make amends here but as bernie sanders both pointed out this week he tried to pressure the airline already on some important issues and walked away empty handed. >> certainly, secretary is saying that he's going to push to make sure that people are made whole and it was a dias

disasdisasterou disasdisasts over the holiday weekend for people. yeah, he's saying he's address this. he's facing pressure from the left and right on how this is going to unfold and what kind of measure he'll put in place and what kind of checks will be put on-air lines going forward and how he'll make whole. there is a lot more to this that we'll see how it will unfold and how it will be resolved. >> let's talk title 42 now, richard, supreme court justice neil gorsuch blasted the hill and the white house of his dissent dissdissent of the ruling. ele officials have failed to address a different emergency. we are a court of law, not policymakers of last resort. should the white

house do more? >> i have to agree with justice neil gorsuch, it is absolutely right. it is not the job of the united states supreme court to be making this decision. this is responsibility that falls on the united states congress. americans across the country sent 535 people to do this work and regulate what happens and update our immigration laws which is written in the earearly '80s. here is the thi there is a lot of blame put at the foot of the biden administration of what's happening at the southern border because there is a crisis there. what's congress going to do about it? we can't have old public health orders as a remedy to the problem. what you see the white house is currently doing at this point is we are going to try to work with some of these countries whether it is venezuela or cuba or haiti for folks to apply for asylum in their home country and decrease

venezuela border crossing. that's not enough. what needs to happen is new congress needs to pass legislation to secure the border and creates some sort of legal pathway for folks living in the country and shadows to come out and be part of our society. >> i mean so far looking ahead of 2023 seems a lot of hope but no chance to congress will do anything about immigration. charlie, what responsibilities do elected republican officials in the border states have here? >> well, i think that unfortunately because obviously immigration is a federal issue. the courts have ruled on that. i agree with richard, this should be a situation that is handled responsibly by the federal government. one bright spot, however, that president trump actually solved the crisis at

the border. members of both parties in congress sort of ignored since 1986. donald trump did solve the immediate crisis at the border by doing exactly what richard just said which is to go down and talk and work with mexico and other countries to keep the migrants from coming to our border in the first place. president biden chose to out of peak towards trump or because he cares more foreigners or he does with americans or he hates our border, i don't know why he made this decision to undo all of those things that trump put in place that solved the crisis at the border and created this humanitarian national crisis of millions of people pouring across our border. that's 100% created by joe biden. by the way, neil gorsuch, i also agree with him. the court is not supposed to be the legislative body of last resort. what's interesting is i

do think the court over gorsuch's objection did biden a bit of a favor by keeping title 42 in place because it is going to keep this horrible problem from getting even worse. >> katherine, i want to make sure we turn to the former president trump's tax returns, democrats released them. those returns are being held as a war shock test in washington. people are seeing them what they want to see. republicans say they are beautiful and perfeperfect, exempletary tax returns. >> that's often the way washington writes. everyone sees what they want to see. certainly, ahead of it coming out, democrats holding a different view and democrats were arguing it is necessary. certainly these returns show us more about how the president used the tax codes and they show

details of his chairable givings and there is a lot to unpack here. certainly, i think one thing to look at moving ahead is political opponents from both parties could try to use information on these tax returns as he runs for president and making arguments about the successes of his businesses or failures there. >> charlie, what did you make about brady's point that this is a new political weapon that's being unleashed and forget the fact that trump did not release them and congress should not be the one making that call. >> well, certainly donald trump broke a lot of norms that's not a news flash exactly. i do think it is a dangerous precedent and we have seen in the past, mit romney, for example, released his tax returns, that did not stop senate majority leader, har harharry reed, at the time

lying it on the floor and claiming romney did not paid any taxes which was a lie. he never apologized for it, destroyed romney's campaign. the big take away is two things. donald trump got poorer by serving in public office. people like joe biden and nancy pelosi made a fortune on government's salaries working in public office. that's a big difference. i think to me that's the most important takeaway. i don't really know why they are so upset about all this. >> richard, i am going to give you 15 seconds to put a button on it. >> this tax return shows that those folks have the ability to lobby congress can have tax

returns that look like donald trump, teachers and firefighters and professionals across the country paid more percentage wise in taxes than billionaires and millionaires like romney and donald trump. that's a very sad thing in the united states. >> all three of you, thank you so much for taking your time with me this morning. >> happy new year. protesters across iran captured the world's attention, raising questions of the future regime and the biden administration's efforts to stop its nuclear program. we'll bring in a former top bush administration, national security official telling us whether the nuclear deal is really, finally dead. that is coming up next. ♪

ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy predicting 20p 202023 will usher good countcountry. joining me now i michael allen, welcome to fox news sunday, happy new year. >> happy new year. in ukraine, this missile bombardment ushered in the new year and putin rejected president zelenskyy's appeal for some kind of a peace

summit. where do you make of where we are? >> the russians are trying to to lower the moral and saying to the europeans that we are in this for a longer fight. what the ukrainians want of is more assistance from the united states that they can grow their leverage to enable a future peace negotiation. i don't think it is right right now. i think russia still feels like it has cards to play. they're buying new weapons from the iranians and putting more troops on the feel. ukrainians feel like they have a long way to go after all their winning and they're making progress especially in the south so while zelenskyy can put out a peace plan to say here is where i want to get to eventually, no one is in the move to compromise, yet. >> to that point, zelenskyy is pursuing and asking for peace summit with the russians and at the same time he was in washington, he asked congress for this whole new slate of

offensive weapons. where does it tell you where he sees end game for this war? >> i think zelenskyy knows he has to keep his foot on the gas in order to go ahead and get russia out of the territory before the west gets tired of funding his campaign. i think that's the big rub here. he wants to signal especially to the europeans that he's willing to do peace talks eventually but zelenskyy came here to the united states and i was glad he did to thank the american people for their generosity for funding and transferring weapons to the ukrainian people. i think yu ukraine's defense and their war with russia is in the national security interests of the united states, after all they're a work against russia that's moving west ward and may have threaten nato. they're also able to degrade the manpower of the russian army so that we may be

able to pivot to asia and not worry so much about russia if they are degraded. these are things or reasons why we should support ukraine. >> to that point, take a listen to president zelenskyy, this is wh whwhat he said to the u.s. congress. >> your money is not charity. it is an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way. >> what would you say to those republicans who have criticized u.s. support of the ukrainians as a blank check? >> i think there is a lot ofover sooith that the republicans in the senate can do. the republicans will be in the majority here this week and they ought to launch an aggressive oversight campaign. the secretary of defense and state comes to the hill, testify what is the administration's plan and what is our end game and just how is all the money being

funded? i think at the same time we can support ukraine but be very tough with the administration on what the strategy is and how the money is being spent. putin's relationship with another adversary, iran, is growing stronger. iran is shipping ballistic missiles to the russians right now. the biden administration says there are iranian personnel on the ground in crimea right now. >> right. >> sounds alarming. >> it is alarming. the short range ballistic missiles is what we'll see increasingly more of. it is important for russia to try to maintmaintain maintmaint a strike capability into ukraine. i think we'll see more evidence of that going soon just because we have seen drones so far. iran is a state of terrorism and for

them to be assisting the russians is certainly a sight to hold. >> americans have been watching of these protests erupted in iran, an aging ruling class. do you think some analysts would say these protests could be a real tipping point, do they threaten the regime? >> so, not yet. the one hand i think it is promising that these protests are ongoing. second, i think there have been more broad base than just the students. think you need to be more broad base in order to have success. it would be great if the parents of the students were out there protesting as well. ree ree recently, you had oil workers who went on strike with solidarity with the students. you need to see more of that to get the regime really worry.

they had secret police and security services and they are brutal and fierce. they have killed hundreds of iranians and they'll put to death in persecution. they are in control right now but eventually, they are sewing the seeds of their own of destruction. >> what about the nuclear deal? do you think these protests and public opinion in iran is so firmly against the deal that could mean it is dead once and for all, really? >> i know biden keeps saying it is dead. his administration, however, it is not on the agenda right now. they want to revise it to do so. i don't think they can do it right now when there are protesters on the street and getting killed by the regime. but, i think they want to keep it warm and return to it one day because i think they just have this sort of religious deal they believe this is the best way for them to tackle the iran program and the iran issue even if the

deal that we struck with them is not that great on non-proliferation issues. >> maybe it is a kat that lives seven of its nine lives. michael, thank you so much for joining us. happy new year. >> appreciate it. >> up next, the cia opens its doors for a very rare glimpse inside the agency's headquarters, we'll look at america's top secret missions in history. ♪

reporters were allowed into the newly renovated museum. our jennifer griffin took us inside. >> reporter: at cia headquarters, you don't need a clearance to see its new renovated museum, filled with declassified gadgets like this powdered compact with coded messages embedded in its mirrors, drone or this pipe. >> this idea is you would bite down on the pipe and it would be able to send signals through your cavity through here. >> reporter: janelle nisie is the deputy. >> these artifacts have never been displayed here in our museum. >> reporter: the covert ex
