>> hi again, alex. still at this point the painstaking process at least on the ground of doing this identification and recovery of not just the remains, but the belongings of the victims and i haven't seen the number change from the last time i spoke to you. 178 have been identified and they're using dna and fingerprints on the site. this is obviously going to be a slow and painstaking process. one factor that may be of interest that people are waiting to find out more about are the two survivors as you mentioned. those were two flight attendants that had been seated all of the way in the aft of the aircraft by the tail and you can see in the footage, the tail is the only part of the aircraft that maintained some of its structural integrity. so there are two. one is a male, 33, one is a woman, 25, and we haven't heard much about the woman, but she is in stable condition. the man, we heard, spoke to doctors in seoul and according to what the doctors said he doesn't remember exactly what happened. he kind

alex, thank you.m listening to alex, i'm thinking about the broader strategic situation that bbc news is in. recently, there were cuts announced. also, we know there's a shift in emphasis away from programmes towards digital. and in the middle of this, you have these very high—profile presenters who still have these very important connections with millions of people. and are also paid an awful lot of money. and i suppose... i don't think, i don't imagine that the decisions taken here, from the bbc�*s perspective, would've been about money. and if alex is right, mishal husain, we don't know why she chose to leave and we don't know what she was offered, but, you know, it looks as if perhaps the bbc was offering her something but she chose to leave. but there is this question swirling, isn't there, about the cuts that need to be made? bbc news is in the process of making these big cuts. it's looking to save a huge amount of money, and i suppose now i don't know whether alex, the next thing you'll be writ

among them on the house side, congressman alex mooney. the west virginia republican spoke on the floor this week for the final time. here is what he had to say. as the designee of the majority leader. mr. mooney: it has been the greatest honor of my life to serve the people of the united states house of representatives. i was elected on november 4 of 2014. believe it or not only won by three percentage points in a tough election. but the good people of 2nd district elected me five times to represent them for the past 10 years. i did not seek re-election. i ran for another office which i did not end. so my time comes to a close at noon on january 3. i have educated folks about how this works here and the constitution dictates which you are no longer a congressman and exactly at noon on january 3. and my 10 years will come to an end. first eight years in congress i represented 17 beautiful counties from the eastern panhandle of west virginia and down to this county. after the 2020 creance success west virginia lost one of our three seats. s

but that's just the way alex is. he's a great individual. and then you talked about it and i have to concur, having had numerous philosophical conversations with you, that you have been one of the strongest conservative voices during your time in the house and i was talking with another member, alex happened to be present, and we were talking about things and he made some point on what we needed to do to push the conservative cause forward to make america great and better as we move forward, and the other guy said, yeah, that's what we're going to miss. we're going to miss that, because we've been sitting trying to figure out how complicated it was and how you move this and that and alex would go, no, here's what you do. you go straightforward and tell people the facts. and that's what you've always done. and it's been greatably appreciated -- greatly appreciated. last but not least, through those 10 years we have developed a friendship. and that is a friendship that will be a lifetime friendship. and we will continue to do things together a

>> yeah, alex. it's a great question especially because we have talked about the growing influence that elon musk has had over the president-elect recently with the perfect reason that the near-government shutdown last week that he had such a big role in. now we're seeing he and vivek ramaswamy, his partner in leading this effort to cut government spending in an indirect way giving advice to the president elect as to what the future of the u.s. workforce should look like, encouraging him to allow more foreign technology workers into the u.s. with the use of these h-1b visas that elon musk himself had when first arriving in this country to work. this has ignited a lot of backlash especially with trump supporters who are in avor of a hard line approach to all forms of immigration, but there are still some who are saying that this doesn't rise to the level of needing to be concerned. they're saying they want to tamp down concerns that elon musk and ramaswamy have a very big influence over president-ele

. >> alex, good to see you, welcome back. my first thought is that it is surprising to see jd vance. because he has been pretty much in the private i for the last several weeks since the election. and we have seen the likes of elon musk and the back ramaswamy spending more time publicly with president trump and we have with the incoming vice president. so it is good to see them together, i suppose. and of course, mike johnson, and the house of representatives, has proven to be a staunch ally of donald trump and willing to go to whatever length it takes to get through his agenda. >> can i just ask, if you are a fly on the wall in that stadium sweet, what would you be listening for? or do you think is going to be all jovial? it is football, that's what it is? >> yeah, i think it could be a little light, but as you were talking about earlier, president-elect trump is continuing to make announcements from the sidelines, and focus on who he wants to surround himself with even more. i mean, obviously these folks have a lot that the

>> alex, it's interesting because we are hearing from president-elect trump, just notably, not about this funding bill that has now been signed by president biden in which notably as you heard julie mentioned, does not include that key demand from the president-elect about the debt ceiling. we know the president-elect just returned to mar-a-lago after he was at a golf course most of the day, and he has been active on his true social platform announcing new pics to join his administration. but what we are hearing reaction from, specifically to the passage of this funding bill is elon musk who we know played such an influence in a big role about how long it took to get this bill across the finish line. he posted in part, your actions turned a bill that weighed pounds, into a bill that weighed ounces, and the actions he's referring to, alex, are the cutting of hundreds of pages of policy from this eventual bill including healthcare reforms, legislation to crackdown on junk fees as well as legislation to give lawmakers in congress pay raises , and i want you to listen to house speaker jo
