logan permission from his delaware residents as well? the president goes to delaware because it's his home. it's also where his son and his former wife are buried and it's a place that is obviously close to his heart. a lot of presidents go visit their home when they are president. we also have gone a step further than the prior administration in many administrations in releasing visitor logs of people who visit the white house and will continue to do that now in its first year in office. according to the new york post, biden spent all or part of one hundred and one days in delaware and of course has given fewer formal press conferences than his predecessors. and is this why we haven't seen much of joey so far this week? joe is being prepped every day that prep sessions for his big four p.m. eastern one pacific time press conference tomorrow and the middle of an in and out burger rush out of the west coast. of course, the never ending flubs failures and far left lunacy here with reaction fox news contributors ari fleischer and laura trum

georgia has more days of early voting than delaware or new y york. georgia has no excuse absentee voting which delaware and new york do not have. if georgia or texas present jim crow emergencies, then so do a whole lot of democratic-run states. the senate democratic leader has gone on cable tv saying georgia is greatly restricting or eliminating early voting. that's a lie. proveably false. georgia has more early voting than new york. the democratic leader has tried to fearmonger about one rural georgia county that condensed multiple voting locations into one, one rural georgia county. well, the county is overwhelmingly red. they were clearly not involved in trying to suppress democratic votes. 70% republican in that one county in 2020. so take a step back for a minute. president biden's story is that democracy is on death's door. but he spent nine months chasing a reckless taxing and spending spree before addressing it. must not be that much of an emergency. citizens are meant to believe a return of jim crow is on the table. but this is only presiden

he is almost always in delaware presumably taking lots of naps.is first year biden spent more than a quarter of his time in delaware. >> harris: sean the right about that. sean hannitying after president biden for spending a little too much time in delaware these days. critics point out the president's continued lack of news conferences as we enter the second year in office. his ice cream cone looked delicious, though, didn't it? how bout sushi? i just had sushi for lunch yesterday. indian? ehh, maybe... how bout seafood? you know i don't like seafood.

the state of delaware is actually able to do it.o there's many other states, jersey and connecticut. we all do it. i don't know why there is an issue here. also, to comment on the individual that was talking about the 800,000 green cardholders voting in new york. why is that a problem? the problem is that it is against the constitution. am i not correct? ken: you are correct -- well, federal law as it relates to federal elections, you are correct. but states are giving the authority, if they choose to, to let whoever they want vote. the federal government doesn't govern that. this people are not supposed to vote in federal elections. one of the problems how do i is, how do you really segregate those folks out from the federal election if you are going to let 800,000 noncitizens onto the voter rolls. we have not seen elections run so smoothly and people are so on top of things that they can distinguish between a u.s. citizen and a noncitizens that are supposedly legitimately on the voter role. i'm under no illusions that those 800,00

georgia has more days of early voting than delaware or new york. georgia has a new excuse absentee voting, which delaware and new york do not have. if georgia or texas present jim crow emergencies, so do a lot of democratic run states. senate democratic leaders gone on tv and said georgia is greatly restricting or eliminating early voting. that is alive. provably false. georgia has more early voting than new york. the democratic leader has tried to fear mongering about one rule georgia county -- one rule georgia county. the county is over -- overwhelmingly red. 70% republican and that one county. take a step back for a minute. president biden's story is that democracy is on death store. but he spent nine months chasing a reckless tax-and-spend spray before addressing it? must not be that much of an emergency. democrats believe a return of jim crow is on the table. but this is only president biden's sixth priority after he was blocked from spending $5 trillion on windmills and welfare. democrats own behavior refutes their false asteria. 12 months ag

delaware. he blasted george's procedures regarding local election officials while pushing national legislation with almost identical language on the issue. the president implied things like popular voting id laws to be quote, totalitarian? totalitarian? ironic on the same day washington d.c. democratic mayor told citizens to bring a photo id and a vaccine card anytime they leave the house. the president repeatedly invoked the generate six riots. while himself used irresponsible de- legitimizing rhetoric undermine the democracy. the sitting president of the united states compared united states suit totalitarian states. they said our country would be in a talk or see if he does not get his weight. if he does not get his way. so the commander-in-chief propagandize against his own country, his own country to a degree that would have made flesh. there was no consistent standard behind anything the president said. he trampled through some of the most sensitive and sacred parts of our nation's past. h

and so, yeah, delaware, too. we're the first state, and we also have to be the first state to step up as well and make sure that everyone has the right to vote. >> i genuinely as an american feel that in addition to guarding against fraud, which is very little of in the united states, it should be as easy as possible for americans to vote because we are the best democratic republic when as many people as possible are represented, no matter who wins, democrats or republicans. but going over a lot of these election laws, i went in, preparing for today, and i saw, you know what? new jersey doesn't allow ballot harvesting. and that's a democratic state. delaware doesn't allow the kind of early voting that a lot of other states do. how come -- but then the journalist in me and the cynic says, well, how come democrats only complain about the voting -- strict voting regulations in red states, in texas and georgia and not in democratic states like new york? >> well, i think if you listen to any of the voting rights advoc

we are known for something called the delaware way. the delaware way for me is best explained by a tradition we have of on the thursday after the election each and every other year when all of the candidates, the winners and losers gather in the lower county which used to be a very competitive and now very much a republican county and they ride together, traditionally, in horse-drawn carriage's and they would come together and there would be bands and all of the high schools represented. at the end there was a ceremony went on of the committee chairs of the respective parties, the duma credit chair, now even -- the democratic chair, the republican chair, now even the independent chair and they actually bury a hatchet. the democratic chair grabs it and the republican chair grabs it and they put it in a box and they bury it with sand from dewey beach on the atlantic ocean. what happens on dewey beach stays on dewey beach. it is symbolic for sure. it says the election season is over. we are democrats and republicans, third party, but we a

neil: start with rehobeth beach, delaware.st before bad a new, the roads a little wet as those cars are swinging by. as we go through the remainder of the day, hope you had time to prep. here's a look at snowfall totals. salisbury, maryland getting 7 inches of snow already. ocean city, maryland four inches there. in virginia, 3.7. we will add some more. gusty winds. you can see snow coming through in the winds beyond cold out of the northwest as the snow wraps around the systems we give you the pick picture, snow extends into the carolinas, carolina, santa monica in georgia last night and early this morning as well, you can see a lot of places being affected by this. for the past 3 hours ocean city has added four inches of fresh snow. a lot of reports coming in out of south carolina, some from north carolina, 3.6 inches of fresh snow. look how it is circling and headed up to the northeast. blizzard warnings in place as well and those. warnings will take us through good portion of the day. over the morning hours mostly 20s. by

jon: lucas with the president there in delaware, thank you. former d.c.e detective joins us once again, ted, we know one of the four hostages has been released on armed and that is very good news, bodes well for what might happen here. >> it is absolutely good news. it's just what you and i were talking about just before -- earlier in this program if that is that the hostage negotiators are doing their job, they are trying to establish a rapport with the hostage taker -- of course they would want all of the hostages released but if they should get him to release the hostages one at a time, they are very much doing their job and one of the hostage -- hostages has been been taken out of position, this is tremendously good news. jon: i am looking at some of the images coming in from colleyville, you've got dozens and dozens, probably scores of law enforcement personnel, armored that awakens their but you don't want all of that parked in the parking lot at the synagogue, do you? you want to keep the response as invisible and low-key as you can in the immediat

no more laying low in delaware. president biden is set to hold his first formal news conference in many months. it comes on the eve of one year in office for him. i'm harris faulkner, you are in "the faulkner focus". the press will finally get a chance to put biden in the hot seat. let's see what they do. here is the list of where they could start. tough questions on high record inflation. biden's legislative failures which is disappointing progressives in his own party and can't get anything done. the explosion in covid-19 cases on his watch after he promised to shut down the virus. meanwhile some schools across the country are actually shutting down again. let's ask about that if we could. our own sean hannity says today's news conference is really about one thing. >> they aren't concerned at all about their failing policies, spiking inflation, rising gas prices, open borders, supply chain crisis or of course the americans they left behind in afghanistan that we will never forget. instead the administration appare

delaware has the most restricted laws and georgia, 17 days in person voting, delaware none.p boxes in ever district, in georgia, zero, in delaware. you just have to ask, no excuse needed, you get a mail-in ballot in georgia. you have to give a reason in delaware. both states have voter i.d. why didn't he give the speech in delaware and why did he wait all of this time before ever speaking up about the issue of voting rights? >> sean, you just gave out facts. democrats and joe biden, they aren't dealing with facts. it's lies. they have doubled down. for him to have the audacity to go to atlanta, after knowing all the facts you just articulated, they don't care about the facts. they are desperate. he went down there and played the race card to the 15th degree, with no effect. even al sharpton, the speech had no effect. he diverted away from the chaos with the inflation, the southern border, afghanistan, poor schools, and he's done a disservice for black americans. look at the urban cities. the crime wave. guess who gets hurt? black people. chicago. joe biden has not lifted a f

we are delaware ian's first. let's do the business -- we are delawarians first and let's go be the business of the state. for many years legislators on both sides of the aisle took that to the work we did. i can remember when i was lieutenant governor if i closed my eyes and muffled voices, you could not tell whether somebody was speaking -- you could tell whether somebody speaking on the floor of the senate was a democrat or republican based on what they are saying. now it has changed significantly since then. but when senator biden surprisingly won as a 29-year-old not old enough to take the oath of office until he turned he beat a long serving 30, republican two term governor, two or three term u.s. senator and he did it running that way. politics in delaware since we are so small, we are shy of a million people. one congressional desert. politics is very personal. it is more personal than partisan. governor cox said something that i think holds true in my state more than ever. politics is not as local as it u

delaware is now number two. they have three times the number of methadone clinics. >> there's multiple factors driving it higher in one state versus the other. they credit that they had 1 and 20,000. they have increased number of clinics and seen the number drop. >> the clinics will help. we massively expand. think about new hampshire. >> what would be the best thing state like ours could do? >> expand all types of treatment. expand or try types of treatment. >> thank you very much. i yield back. >> chairing the committee and time our members speak in the case and i would like my colleagues to weigh with me into the record. >> thank you -- are you yielding? i couldn't quite follow because you broke up here. >> yes. >> i would like to enter a video of parents telling their story for the record. it can be found at stopthevoid.org. i'd like to introduce that into the record. >> without objection. can you hear me? >> i can hear you now. you're breaking up a bit but we can hear you. sgla i have do objections. >> the

ten days of early voting and excuse only voting absentees in delaware is fine, but 17 days of early voting and no excuse absences in georgia is racist jim crow? senate democratic leader pretends it is a civil rights crisis that georgia has enshrined more, more early voting and more absentee balloting than his own state of new york has ever allowed. this is misinformation. it's a big lie designed to reduce faith in our democracy, justify top-down election takeover, and justify smashing the senate itself. some years back, a veteran democratic senator explained, quote, the nuclear option is ultimately an example of the arrogance of power. it would transform the senate from the so-called cooling saucer of our founding fathers talked about to a purer majoritarian body. that was then senator joe biden. he continued, at its core the filibuster is not about stopping a nominee or a bill, it's about compromise and moderation. now, before president biden abrummettly -- abruptly reversed this position he held for decades, he was actually in very good company. senator robert byrd of west virginia, the

your experience in delaware, you are not alone. there are people all over the country who do not have early voting, no excuse early voting available. they believe their elections run just fine without a -- it. but i would not say that the very first presidential debate, it occurred after voting had begun in many states. i can tell you a someone who has been a candidate five times, you have to target what you're trying to communicate to voters. this is what i'm going to do. if you elect me to act. you have to target that from election day, backwards. we have all sorts of different early voting schedules. that becomes very difficult to do in those national elections. >> let's to otis in detroit, michigan. a democrat color. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> will go to a republican. >> hello. how are you doing? works just fine. a question mark >> it is very simple stop the cheating with people living in one or more's vote. everyone has a social security number. a thumbprint, and eyeball print. if everyone was tied into a federal com

. >> harris: if you can't stay in her basement and delaware and not stay in her basement in delaware, they are going to have to figure something out. i want to get to afghanistan with you. the psident defended his withdrawal of the troops in afghanistan last august. watch how he did it. >> president biden: raise your hand if you think anyone was going to be able to unify afghanistan under one single government. it's been the graveyard of empires for a solid reason. it is not and susceptible to unity. there was no way to get out of afghanistan after 20 years easily, not possible no matter when you did it. and i make no claim. we had to get out without making those types of mistakes, what did you make of his answer yesterday? >> shannon: to echo my colleagues here he had a delusional not only sense of the facts but also a delusional offense of himself. i want to wrap that up with the polls and although he says that he ignores them, he shouldn't. that's what americans care about and how they feel about this president. it was clear yesterday that what the reporters think americans care ab

the president will come back from delaware. it gonna get some rain. special thanks to all of you for keeping the president freedom fighter top in the country. rachel and pete, do you want to do this again tomorrow? >> dana: president biden returning from vacation to a full-blown covid crisis. the virus is once again upending americans lives. the white house is short on solutions. good morning, i'm dana perino. bill is off. >> good morning everyone. i'm trace gallagher. this is "america's newsroom" paired the virus is causing holiday hangover for travelers. airlines to cancel flights, more than 3,000 today alone for bad weather making things even worse. >> dana: also not helping, makes messaging from the cdc.

also for delaware, 12 inches or snow, delaware and maryland 18.8, rehobeth beach 11.7, magnolia 9.5. massachusetts is feeling the brunt of this nor'easter. let's go to robert ray. it is tough. i'm going to let you take it because your picture says 1000 words. >> reporter: it is unbelievable. it continues to get worse. . these wind gusts pick up, they are well over 35 miles an hour which is as you were explaining present conditions. the atlantic ocean the visibility deteriorating. cannot see a quarter-mile is and the snowdrifts on the atlantic. i want to show you some of this. it is not snow but powdery. the winds are sustained, they are intense. the biggest concern in gloucester, massachusetts, america's first fitting -- fishing village, it will turn 400 years old next year, they are concerned about the power. if they lose power here it is going to be a massive issue. coastal flooding another concern. in 2018, the last blizzard they experienced they did see some of the water in the atlantic rush into some of these streets and roads. people here are hunkering down. even if you are in

states like delaware and new york. they don't go as far as the law that's being suggested by you democrats. for example, same-day registration for those who want to show up and establish their voter registration on the day of the election. this bill is going to require it. state of new york doesn't have it. the state of delaware doesn't have it. in fact, the state of illinois doesn't have it either. well, my message to them is good. let them get it. it's a good, positive way to expand the opportunity to vote. many states have done it for years without problems. those who are lagging whether they're red or blue should come into the 21st century. it should be our mission, our singular mission before anything else to make sure that every eligible american has the right to vote, that we eliminate the burdens and obstacles, the tricks and traps that have been set up in all these states to make it so difficult. and we ought to be singularly be embarrassed as a nation as we look at the film and all the videos and all of the p

right now there's no plan presents for the president, he's back at home in delaware. keep you updated should the situation change. jon: lucas tomlinson live in delaware where president biden is spending the weekend. the attorney general in texas, ken paxton joins us by phone. general paxton, do we know the motive here? >> i do not think we know the motive. for the ongoing investigation, i think there's still a lot we just don't know. jon: there were reports that there might be bombs involved, any confirmation of that or is that just another rumor? >> i think that's just another rumor, i don't think there's any confirmation of explosive devices on the grounds. obviously in evolving situation and we don't have the information. jon: local authorities, are they handling the investigation? i'm sure the fbi and atf must be involved as well ask. >> you got federal, state and local law enforcement authorities, local police, state police and federal authorities are all involved. jon: interesting some of the quotes we've heard from this hostage taker, he says he expects he's go

as far as voting goes, all you have to do -- i live in delaware. i drive 10 miles. stand in line, that's the way it's got to be. it is voter id and nothing else. guest: i am glad you have that experience when you can drive 10 miles and you don't have all the barriers. every one should have that same opportunity, the ease with which you talked about voting. it should be the ease by which every citizen should cast about. that's the thing that will protect this. host: for more information about the fight for voting rights by the naacp, go to naacp.org. you can follow on twitter as well. derrick johnson

georgia has more days of early voting than delaware or new york. georgia has no excuse absentee voting, which delaware and new york do not have. if georgia or texas present jim crow emergencies, then so do a whole lot of democratic-run states. senate democratic leaders going on cable tv and saying georgia is greatly restricting or eliminating early voting. that's a lie. provably false. georgia has more early voting than new york. the demagogue has tried to fear-monger one rural county that puts voting legislations into one, one rural georgia county. the county is alarmingly red, they clearly were not involved in trying to suppress democratic votes, 70% republican in that one county in 2020. so take a step back for a minute. president biden's story is that democracy is on death's door. but he spent nine months chasing a reckless taxing and spending spree before addressing it? must not be that much of an emergency. s citizens are meant to believe a return of jim crow is on the table. but this is only president biden's sixth priority after he was bloc

why aren't they going after delaware? why hasn't joe lifted a finger all these years to make voting more accessible in his home state? today during his big speech, jo was very usual confused, he referred to kamala harris as president harris, apparently jo believes he was arrested while marching for civil rights in th 1960s, a little fact check, that never happened very take a look. >> last week president harris and i stood in the united state capital to observe one of those before and after a moment and american history. i did not walk in the shoes of generations of students who walked these grounds, but i walked other grounds because i' so old i was there as well. they think i'm kidding, man. it seems like yesterday the first time i got arrested. anyway. >> never happened. for the record, while millions did in fact risked their lives and marched for civil rights many decades ago and lyndon johnson required the help of th republicans to pass the civil rights act of 64, the voting rights acts of 65, joe biden wa busy tryin

what i guess you call jim crow 3.0 last year because new york had nine days of early voting and delaware had no days, zero days of early voting. next i've heard complaints that georgia has reduced the number of ballot drop boxes in the state, even though they now require every county to have a drop box, as was not the case as recently as 2018. and that georgia has added new security measures to prevent fraud. once again, i hate to break the news that the democratic floor leader's home state of new york had zero ballot drop boxes, and the president's home state of delaware allowed for just five last year. and of course one of the democrats' favorite claims is that all those terrible republicans down in georgia have stopped campaign and political workers from giving food and drimptions -- drinks to people waiting in line at the polls. where could georgia have gotten such an idea? as it turns out the democratic leader's home state of new york also has a nearly identical law banning such electioneering near polling places. the democrats also say that voter i.d. is a kind of new jim crow. tha

he goes to wilmington, delaware. when the shelves are empty, get where pete buttigieg goes, he goes on paternity leave and when you know, he puts kamala harris in charge of the border, you know, guess where she goes when the border is being overrun by people? she heads over to, you know, vietnam. she heads over to asia. and these people aren't present. they are not fighting for this country. you know, the difference between them and my father -- my father sat there 24 hours a day and fought for the united states' best interest. these people aren't fighting. they have no energy. they no charisma and no fight. i think americans are seeing that as you stack up problem after problem for this country. and, you know, frankly embarrassing loss after loss for this country. >> jesse: yeah, you know they say half a life is showing up and they are not even showing up. eric trump, thanks for coming on "jesse watters primetime," always a pleasure. >> congrats, jesse. >> jesse: joe biden started the year saying he was going to get

judy, your experience in delaware, you are not alone. are people all over the country that do not have early voting that believe their elections run just fine without it. the very first presidential debate occurred after voting had begun in many states. and i can tell u.s. someone who has been a candidate five times, you really target what you're trying to communicate to voters. this is what i will do. you target that from election day back. and that becomes very difficult to do in the national elections. host: let's go to otis in detroit, michigan. otis, good morning. ok, we will go to less. caller: how are you doing today? host: question or comment? caller: it is very simple to stop the cheating with people putting in more than one vote. everybody has a social security number, a thumbprint and an eyeball print. if it was tied to a federal computer system, anybody that showed up with more than one thumbprint, social security, or i print would be just the five. this is something that could have been done along time ago and should have be

jen: the president goes to delaware, because it's his home. it's where his son and former wife are buried and it's a place that's obviously close to his heart. a lot of presidents go visit their home when they are president. we also have begun a step further than the prior administration and many administrations in releasing visitor logs of people who visit the white house and will continue to do that. go ahead in the back. i think we're done and we're going to move on. in the back. reporter: it was reported this morning the biden administration is reviewing e-commerce ali baba's business for u.s. national security reasons. can you confirm? jen: i really have to check with our national security team on that. i'm happy to do that and will get back to you after the briefing. in the back. >> i want to bring it become to voting rights. particularly the president's speech last week. i wonder if you can talk a little bit about how it came together and i wonder if you'll respond to criticism about it that it was too aggressive or divisive and that so

georgia's is much more reasonable than even delaware's is.fight in this nation about whether or not we should authenticate the vote. should we do as the democrats want to do to allow people here illegally to vote? that is what democrats are advocating in new york and california. so, yeah, let's have that discussion. should you have to show i.d., identification, or not? elizabeth: you need to show i.d. with health care in a doctor's office. in new york you have to show i.d., vaccine pass orport to ean a restaurant. nancy pelosi is nationalizing federal government to take over state election laws. that is what it is b they're moving to call an end for the senate filibuster to ram it through. nancy pelosi is calling the republicans legislative equivalent of capitol riots. watch nancy pelosi on this. listen to this. >> what they are doing, you pointed out very clearly, and i thank you for that, thatter this not only suppressing the vote, suppressing the vote, they are nullifying elections. elizabeth: have we ever, have they ever put forward anybo

>> i shouldn't say this, i'm going to get in trouble in delaware. election results, i said how did i do in scranton? i won every precinct. and so i used to drive up route 81 all the time to get not just to get to scranton but to get up to syracuse when i was at syracuse law school. now the entrance to get to scranton off 81 is the joe biden expressway. so i'm coming home, i'm coming home. but all kidding aside, i want to thank our commerce secretary, former governor raimondo for joining us and congressman mike doyle who couldn't be here today but who's done so much for this district. nearly three years ago i began my campaign for president right here in pittsburgh, the first major stop i made. i said back -- i said back then i was running to restore the backbone of america, the middle class. it's time we begin to build this country from the middle up and the bottom out so that we -- i've never known when a wealthy person didn't do well when the middle class was doing well. we always do better when ordinary, hard-working people have a shot. when i ac

matter of fact that's much more generous than what president biden's old state of delaware has offered in terms of early access to the ballot. so these clearly are not examples of jim crow voter suppression. these are commonsense measures designed to encourage people's confidence in the integrity of the voting systems. and to make sure that they're both accessible and secure. these efforts should not be colonized . they should be applauded. and they shouldn't be twisted beyond recognition. trying to manipulate the facts in order to achieve a me political outcome. if these state voting laws that are not designed to restrict access to the ballot , you might wonder whether there is a pre-existing problem. so let's have a look. did voters actually have a problem? casting their ballots. during the last election? well, the pew research center conducted a poll of the voting experience and found that the vast majority of voters , 94 percent, 94 percent said voting was easy. i don't think you can get 94 percent of the people to agree that the earth is round anymore . but here we have 94 percent

like blue point, new york, 13 inches, closer to that for bay shore, islip, 10 inches, you head to delaware 9.5. rehobeth beach, 9.70 will get close to that as you are getting more snow. as we look at portions of rhode island, four to five inches, those numbers go up as well as the storm tracks to the northern visibility drops quickly. we are keeping an eye on the weather and travel to and -- kiyana: is a travel restriction in many places if you're traveling, it is dangerous. here's the scene i-95 in aberdeen, maryland, 45 minutes north of baltimore where winter weather advisory and this morning. on the western shoreline of chesapeake bay, still pretty slippery even through the afternoon. that -- please slow down. use caution. several areas are dealing with many delays, not even driving conditions well into the afternoon. here is a look at late morning commute from the i-95 corridor or just north of maryland into the pa/delaware line through new jersey and new york. a lot of snow through this area where we see trouble spots, slick spots and low visibility. towards boston it will continue as
