joining us n now, doug collins. great to he see you. happy new year.articular sound bite from kevin mccarthy, also your expectation on what's going to happen today. >> well, when that sound bite came up a few weeks ago i was expecting kevin to probably have already solidified the votes, came to an agreement, got it done. now we're walking into it, less than six hours away, in which there will be a vote and he doesn't have the votes going in and from what i heard on sort of both sides, there's more than just five. there is still a real problem. but the bigger problem here is, this is not the way the republicans wanted to start off a new majority, slim majority in the house because it ties up everything else they want to do. also an underlying thing, not just the ones vocal about not having kevin mccarthy as speaker, it's causing consternation among members saying what is the in game, what is the out game. they're asking for procedural issues that need to be worked on but, again, is this the way to go about it. some people feel it is. it is causing a rif

doug collins, always a pleasure. see you soon, happy new year. fox news alert. mainly or outrage over a decision to ground all u.s. flight departures yesterday morning after a system outage. it went overnight many hours. the faa and transportation secretary pete buttigieg claim they grounded the planes out of caution. pilots, however, are saying the decision was extreme and the archaic system being used going down was not such a big deal. republicans say the transportation secretary needs to take ownership. >> you say confidence in the transportation administration. i think the american people would say the lack there of. when you look at what took place earlier this week. over 7,000 flights canceled. i think pete is very struggling. i think there are a lot of people that probably don't like him too much today. he has some issues. he has to get his office straightened out. >> harris: new op-ed asking the scathing question is pete buttigieg the most incompetent transportation secretary in history? fox news senior congressional correspondent chad pergram with the

doug collins former republican congressman of georgia and mark former democrat senator of alaska. oug, i will start with you on first of all just reacting to what secretary pompeo was just saying. >> well, he has been saying out loud what many of us have seen firsthand. i was ranking member of the house judiciary committee and going through stuff with intelligence and the investigation of russia through impeachment. look, he has a wealth information to the media. he leaked. we know that over time and pompeo is confirming what a lot of us have known. this is a bigger issue. these people are being looked at for what they did while they were members. they are trying to draw the distinction it's revenge. swalwell and schiff were doing things not being on the committee because they have trouble telling the truth to the american people and adam schiff made a lot of leaks but also wrong misconceptions to the public. they don't need to be on there. >> harris: you know, senator, how is it possible that people can see it so differently? the facts are laid out for what they are. there were pr

harris faulkner and joining us today martha maccallum's, lisa boothe and former georgia congressman doug collinsesident biden is set to meet with the president of mexico later today after making his first trip to the southern border is president. a trip's critics say it was nothing but a photo op or as i call it a layover. the presidents meeting in mexico city comes in with more than 100 migrants being processed in the group out of texas but when the president stopped for 4 hours yesterday to see border crisis first hand he didn't see the usual things of migrant encampments we have been showing you for years. that's because they were cleared ahead of his visit. look at the photo right now. what you are about to see is el paso on wednesday versus el paso on thursday. we can pull that up maybe a little bit later. upon his arrival texas governor greg abbott handed the president a "your visit to our southern border with mexico today is $20 billion too little and two years too late" moreover your visit avoids the sites were mass illegal immigration occurs and sidesteps the thousands of texas property

bring in our panel now, jessica tarlov is co-host of "the five," and doug collins, host of the podcastear to you. continue on what you just heard from peter doocy, waiting for reaction on president biden, but the white house counsel, the office of the counsel spokesperson says tail end of that statement, when and as appropriate. isn't it high time that we hear from the president and his team directly on this? >> well, you would expect it to. this has been the issue that's come up. they have held the standard of the trump documents and we can get into that, but another issue where you have something that's been found, here is my key. interesting to me, november 2nd when this was found. we heard nothing, we heard nothing. >> sandra: before the election. >> before the election, before the election and the only question is this, was it kept after the election, did the fbi get notified, doj notified, when is the timeline here. >> sandra: what do you think are the answers to the questions? >> i think they probably did. if they -- if they are saying it was november 2nd they found this, who di

let's bring in doug collins, former u.s. congressman.ing member of the judiciary committee, host of the doug collins podcast. doug, now we have got three people under scrutiny. should we get a special prosecutor for mike pence even though one document has only been found? >> no. probably not. i think one of the bigger questions here is why is the classification process? i think senator cotton made reference to this what would be the actual impact to these documents. >> but there is a problem and we saw this when i was in congress. we talked about it in our judiciary committee that we are overclassifying. there is a lot of stuff out there like background documents. i'm pretty sure there is probably sensitive stuff in there but did it rise to the level of a national security risk? this is becoming a little bit out of hand and really what started all of this though was how the department of justice frankly went after donald trump and the way they did it, the way they publicly did it and now having to sort to go back and adjust to all of thi

i think we still have doug collins with us, the former georgia congressman. doug, if you can indulge that notion if this is personal for some of the members for whatever reason they're just not fans of kevin mccarthy and they're not going to budge on that. >> exactly. what i was saying a few minutes ago, neil, we were talking about. this has become personal. this is not a policy issue anymore. this is a personal issue. they don't trust kevin. for whatever reason they chosen it will not happen. at this point their main goal is to take mccarthy down. if byron donalds gets 19, 20 votes here, or more, if they do another round today, they will nominate somebody else. they will continue this, i disagree a little bit with the last person on, i agree we have an issue developing pressure on both sides but really now in the fourth ballot, those 20 don't have any pressure anymore. they already made what they are going to do. they made their bed. they know what consequences of this will be. there is no pressure on them anymore. the pressure was making the first vote again

doug collins and dnc deputy press secretary jose. doug, what is your take?s secretary one thing. biden administration has been serious about one thing, making the border open and serious about encouraging others to come across and serious about not dealing with in a way that could be bipartisan and what they have made this. i will take a different take. this is playing out politically but it is a national crisis in which just like the commissioner in arizona said. what do we do with these people going across the border with no impediment. the problem is a social issue and national security issue. play it out politically all you want. they are serious making sure nothing is changing on the border. i don't know how anybody can defend that? >> harris: jose, would you like to try? >> first and foremost we have to recognize the president on day one put forward a bill to congress. nothing has been done on that front. look, the whole container wall issue is a joke. arizona, with all due respect, is not lego land. it is the united states of america. we need a congre
