population is not the most popular countries in the world with a population such as is, has uh, ford motor, wherever voice is just not, it just doesn't make sense symbols for our, for to i mean we could look it up because as, as a country, it does have people like i see where the people not to have a voice just doesn't surprise at all. but since our records are a huge population as well. so it's, this is of our present issues of our gifted people, of, for us is sick of a table where decisions are being taken. if you people cannot be deciding for the rest of the world that much in this world that we're in today, it just doesn't make sense. how would increased representation for african countries in the un security council impact global. this is a decision making, especially in regards to african issues as well as you know, there's a lot of security issues on the continent right now. and a lot of them, if i mean, i give this open, most of my not argue completely to bring where they are on the right. a lot of them are part of a projected, by the way, just so much injustice is being perpetrate

know at home that whether it's meta, whether it's walmart, whether it is mcdonald's, whether it's ford motormean, these are iconic brands that are making a decision to move away from diversity, equity and inclusion and move towards merit, excellence and integrity and i think mark zuckerberg is waking up to the reality that we are in a new age and the age of virtue signaling is over and the age of sound business decisions and judgments is here. and i'm excited about what he's done. i do think that -- you know, objecobviously he's got his past things that he has done that obviously a lot of people don't agree with. but ultimately he's woken up to the view that we can't be moderating people's speech online. we've got to stand up for free expression whether you're in government or in private -- in the private sector. maria: absolutely. daniel, great to see you this morning. thanks so much. >> thanks, maria. maria: all right. daniel cameron joining us. quick break and then the very least on the devastating california wildfires, 24 people are now dead, more than a dozen are still missing. we've go

mark fields, former ford motor company president and ceo, also a cnbc contributor, and mark, what areing. we talked a little bit earlier with phil lebeau about what to expect. but there's a lot riding on this for the company. >> yeah, i mean, listen, the big question is are they going to be able to eke out some growth. i think you heard the numbers. they have to deliver about 515,000 units in the fourth quarter to get a little bit of that growth. i think they'll do it, right, because the pr value, if you will, of being able to say you've grown for another consecutive year is important for them. if they don't, this is the first year they have a year-over-year decline in total yearly sales. >> and it's happening at a time when tesla shares have taken off. granted, a lot of that is because of the expectation that elon musk's close relationship with president trump could mean good things for the autonomous point of view. what has to happen in order to really see what's coming next for tesla shares? >> yeah, it's a great point, becky. you've seen the run-up and the anticipation, now it's a

general motors, ford. >> they reported the best annual sales and five years back on friday.oday up again, up four and a quarter% on gm with a washington post report that said president trump will scale back the tariffs 10%, 25%. he will scale them back, trump came out and said the washington post report is untrue and the automakers are up nicely on the possibility that it could happen. >> thank you very much indeed. karine jean-pierre called the white house press team the best in the business. the word the best, give answers like this. >> i will put the president stamina, the presidents wisdom and ability to get this done on behalf of the american people against anyone. >> media guide joe concha is all over this and coming up later in the show. tom homan says countries which refuse to take back illegal migrants will not slow trump's agenda. watch this. >> wearily have countries talking about taking back people from other countries. use give-and-take back the venezuelans that are here illegally, who's going to take them out, not venezuela. the fbi released new video of the ne

they were banks like bank of america, citi, jpmorgan, they were general electric, general motors, ford firms of that type of nature that both required a lot of capital, have relatively tight margins, would also be relatively cyclical, whereas you look at the companies that are dominating the s&p today and it's completely different. powerful monopolies that are growing rapidly with high free cash flow, net margins back in 2005 around 7% versus 12% today and when you think about a company like google or nvidia or meta, these companies margins are much more like printing money compared to what it used to be a couple decades ago, which is why i think we are still in store for a pretty powerful year ahead because those companies businesses are still firing on all cylinders and i think evaluations are very reasonable. >> brian and i were talking in the break alongside kelly about the aspect of who can make it and how they can do it. what's the topic you have for 2025. >> you look at the magnificent seven and i think there's a good reason they call them the magnificent seven, these really are

the defense department is about four times the size of general motors or ford, and the ceo of gm and president of ford have both been secretaries of defense, and people doubted their experience at the time. gm employs 163,000 people in modern times. the last organization hegseth ran had about 30. the president speaks to the nation tonight at five. we will, of course, carry that live right here on nbc bay area on our website, nbcbayarea.com, and on our app as well. all right. thanks, scott. 549 for you this morning, we want to turn back to our coverage of the southern california wildfires. today, dozens of animals impacted will arrive here in the bay area. this comes as hundreds of animals are filling up la shelters today in the bay's ginger conejero sah is live in san francisco this morning. bay area animal shelters are really stepping up trying to prepare and get ready and just help out. that's right. good morning laura and marcus. they've really made a push last week into the weekend and sf spca put up some good numbers. 70 animals found homes, over two dozen puppies. also found th

we have some big automotive companies like general motors, ford and genuine parts.of the major risks for coming into 2025. we talked about this a couple of weeks ago. here are the big risks for 2025. high tariffs is right at the top, the federal reserve could make a mistake or changes in the a.i. story. but to the extent that the trump administration with high tariffs is an issue. that could be mitigating is a major plus for the stuck market and broadening out. this strong handoff for 2025 and 2024. we have the greek economy for gdp and record corporate profits coming up. we have record net profits that we talked about all of this in the last two weeks. now if you mitigate some of these risks particularly tariffs to be much better potential outlook. i talked about how these undervalued sectors could get some love. look at these earning estimates for 2025. technology leaves at 21% but that is a p/e ratio of 30. healthcare is going to have the same growth and earnings has a 17. 30 versus 17. just two sectors but industrials have 20 or so. my point. if you go down the

ford and and general motors, who produce american cars because they've been under the umbrella of can produce hummers that gobble gasoline. you don't have to comply with efficiency standards. so i think it's a very serious problem when we don't impose very strict conservation measures. as i did when i was the white house on automobiles, on trucks, on home insulation, on the efficiency of our electric motors and refrigerators and stoves and the utilization of of solar power or and other things other than oil. did you use electricity? do you feel you've gotten a raw deal from a i guess the short term historians about on energy policies of your administration. well, i very seldom refer to it any more because it it fares well in comparison and they can't deny the figures that i just gave. i mean they official figures of the government, but i had to do a lot of very controversial things to get this done because i in all american automobile manufacturers to the white house at that time, there were five of them. most of them have not survived. and i told them that that i was going to impose

general motors increase of 20.8%, 8.8% gain for nord and honda, and take a look at shares of gm and forde last year. why are we showing you this? because both of them reported their best u.s. sales since 2019. and then there is rivian. this was really the auto stock of the day, if you will. the ev play of the day as well. up more than 24% as the company reported q4 deliveries of more than 14,000 vehicles. that eclipsed the street estimate which was at 12,700 vehicles. production of basically 12,727 vehicles for rivian. as you take a look at the annual deliveries, they now, you know, basically flat year over year, but gives people confidence that perhaps they can make it through the period where they are trying to get through to production of their next generation of vehicles and that's why you saw shares move substantially higher. take a look at the auto dealers and the reason we are showing you this is because the sales rate was expected to be about 16.5 million. i talked to a few people who say their calculations have it at 16.7, even 16.8 million. and as i mentioned earlier, we are lo
