karine jean-pierre coming up.hought it was interesting when he was asked about what he would tell michael waltz, the incoming national security advisor, the biggest challenges facing the united states, he said iran at its proxy groups needs to be dealt with. china is a preeminent challenge, and then what to do about russia-ukraine. which is what michael waltz has been talking to us about for years incessantly saying that this white house has not been doing enough to address any of that. i'm not sure how much of a briefing he needs. >> sandra: and he just said himself, jake sullivan, that karine jean-pierre is going to give us more scoop on what was said at that meeting between president biden and president-elect donald trump. interesting, some exclusive reporting from "the new york post" that spoke to president trump as he was leaving to jpa following the white house meeting. he said it is going very smoothly, both really enjoyed seeing each other. he said we talked a lot about the middle east. i wanted to know hi

let's listen in. >> secretary jean-pierre: incredibly proud of her.to step aside, he immediately endorsed her, and the party unified behind her. they did. >> reporter: my question is if you can or want to address the criticism that is being directed at him over this loss. >> secretary jean-pierre: there are going to be a lot of people who are going to say a lot of things. there going to be election experts who look under the hood in the next couple of days and weeks and months, as i've said already, and they are going to have their opinion on this race. what i can say that -- this is something the president says alt knocked down, you get back up. the president said this moment again. you know, this is a defeat, but we are not defeated. and the president believes he made the right decision on behalf of the american people and on behalf of his country to step aside. and we saw what happened in 2022 after the mid-terms. we saw where we were at that time. and this is how elections are. this is. it ebbs and flows. you win, you lose. and this is where we ar

is at the microphone. >> secretary jean-pierre: and exchange of views.red interested policies issues facing the nation and the world. president biden also raised important items on congress' to-do list for the lame duck session. including funding the government and providing the disaster supplemental funding the president requested. finally, the president reiterated what he said to the president-elect the day after the election and to the american people in the rose garden just last week: we will have an orderly transition and a peaceful transition of power. with that, as you can see, the national security advisor with me, jake sullivan, who is going to preview aipac and peru and g20 and brazil, the president is going to be leaving. jake, the floor is yours. >> thanks, karine, and hi, everybody. and going to make comments, about the trip tomorrow, but i know the issue you are most interested in hearing from karine is the meeting so i will not dally too long. i think it is important to lay out the president's trip over the next several days. tomorrow he t

what will karine jean-pierre say about this morning's meeting?icy to avoid homes with trump signs? we will tackle that. and can the "doge" really turned federal fat? i'm john roberts. come join sandra and me at the top of the hour for "america reports." we'll see you then. >> kayleigh: so this is interesting, as we approach the 1:00 p.m. hour. we can tell you that president-elect trump is there at the white house still meeting with president joe biden. now, look at the time. we are almost at 1:00 p.m. we know he walked in there at about 11:14 a.m., so we can officially say right now that this meeting is longer than the meeting that he had with president obama. that meeting lasted 90 minutes. we are approaching an hour and 45 minutes. we know this as president biden said, it was backgrounded, that he wanted to bring up the ukraine war. i'm sure that the subject of discussion. a bit ironic, though, because the ukraine war started on his watch. so i wonder what he's telling president trump at this moment on this matter. we will keep you updated as w

>> secretary jean-pierre: i don't even understand, why would it be awkward?or him, kept him at arm's length -- >> secretary jean-pierre: why would you characterize it as awkward? they have regular lunches. they meet and talk regularly. why would you call it awkward? reporter matt so there is no weirdness about the way things unfolded? >> secretary jean-pierre: to you see them yesterday when they honor our veterans and were together during the day making sure that we didn't forget about the brave men and women that fought for this country? did you see them together yesterday? did you see the show of force together? this is, look, i'm not even going to take the premise of the question. what i will say is the president and the vice president had lunch today. they have had lunch many times. they have -- they communicate with each other regularly. they had an opportunity to discuss the last 70 days or so of this administration. how important it is to get things done for the american people. and that is their focus. that is genuinely their focus. >> reporter: on hi

i appreciated aydin's words this morning and karine jean-pierre's. didn't so much appreciate the vice president yesterday she will use the word fighting and there was a dig in there. the way they've handled it so -- >> martha: i don't know if this is the answer we would've ever gotten from her in that moment but, you know, the american people obviously did not align with the idea that they feared fascism and that's american people of all colours and backgrounds and genders too broad of a very broad electoral victory from former president trump so it's very interesting. another moment we missed that i want to play because it has to do with a question that's come up it's a specific issue around hunter biden. in the past present biden said he would not pardon his son. after harris lost there is a lot of specular that indeed that was going to be forthcoming. that he was about to be sentenced in several weeks here was the answer to the pardoning question let's watch. >> his son hunter is also a fitting sentence next month does the president have any inten

karine jean-pierre replied, what he said still stands.ssy to the end. >> trace: we will play that coming up in a little bit. kevin corke live in d.c., thank you. let's bring in vivek ramaswamy's former communications director tricia mclaughlin along with birdseye consulting president and republican strategist carly bird. thank you for coming on. a lot of pushback to matt gaetz being picked for attorney general. here's what john fetterman had to say. >> it's nothing but trolling. even the republicans know who he is and we all know what the democrat side will be. that's where the interesting answers are going to come from, my colleagues on the g.o.p. that are going to vote or justify voting for that mess. >> trace: he's right on one thing, some republicans are saying it will be a very tough confirmation process. >> it sure might be, but, yes,, he's also known as a policy -- on the hill especially with those republicans who work with him. i am curious though. donald trump's smart, he probably knew that this reporting was coming up in the nex

jean-pierre: let's step back here.i think i've been and the president and the vice president has been pretty clear and understanding that the american people have spoken and respecting that. and have seen sisterly obviously one of the things that occurred was the pandemic. it did, i caused toll on incumbent parties around the world as a data point as something that we have seen pretty consistency, pretty consistently with g7 allies in this time. and obviously, one of the, one of the things that occurred was the pandemic. it did, it caused disruption it caused the supply chain to be disrupted and led and caused the economy to be turned upside down while we put policies. and we are in fact leading the world on the economy, it doesn't stop, it doesn't stop the fact that there has been a political tone for incumbents. that is something that i'm telling you as a data point to share because we know that you guys would have questions. that's a data point that i'm using. and i'm also saying that there's going to be election ex

what he said still stands. >> todd: karine jean-pierre saying don't let smiles fool you. trump and biden talked two hours, both committed to peaceful transition of power come january. >> carley: to the house, republicans have retained majority after gop secured 218th site overnight. >> todd: griff jenkins in washington. >> griff: the american people have clearly spoken giving republicans trifecta of power, clenched after house race in arizona was called. it brings that house balance of power 218 to 208. we'll see what the final number ends up being. speaker johnson wins another term as top republican. >> numbers you projected there will be reality and we'll have the majority. i think these seats, matt's for example, was to help us, it is an eight-week process to fill that seat. if we do this quickly and i've called governor desantis to ask him to start this thing, we can have that seat filled when congress begins. >> griff: and john thune will be next majority leader. >> we're excited to reclaim majority and enact president trump's agenda. we have a mandate from the ameri

host: the white house press briefing was yesterday where karine jean-pierre was asked about atu cream. -- aid to ukraine. here she is. [video clip] >> i don't want to get too far into it. jake sullivan thought president biden would have the opportunity and that the united states should not walk away from ukraine. so is foreign policy going to be on the agenda for tomorrow? ukraine specifically? >> i'm not going to get into the details of what is going to be discussed tomorrow. that is not what i'm going to get into here. you heard from the national, jake sullivan, our commitment to ukraine. that is something we have shown for three years -- russia's aggression into ukraine. you saw the president's global leadership. you think about making nato stronger. you think about the partners and the alliances that he has been able to bring together -- more than 50 countries. we talked about this on september 29, when we talked about surging aid, security aid, for ukraine, so that they are able to beat back russia's aggression. our commitment -- we have been very clear. we have been very public

white house press secretary karine jean-pierre was asked about this by mark meredith yesterday and she says she has no new policies to preview. >> i don't have anything to announce. i laid out for one of your colleagues what we have been doing especially since we moved forward with our executive actions in june and what we have seen encounters have dropped more than 55% and lower than we were four years ago. >> the app is reportedly set to be unveiled early next month in new york city which has been struggling with an influx of migrants. more than 23,000 migrants stÈre arrived in the big apple since spring of 2022. from a financial standpoint is city has spent more than 3.7 billion for asylum shelter, food and other services just this fiscal year. >> joe biden and kamala harris we saw an open border t12 million illegal immigrants. the worst in our nation's history. that's going to end and it will end on january 20th. >> the "new york post" reports up to 100,000 migrants will be enrolled in the first wave of the program. gillian. >> gillian: pennsylvania avenue for us, thank you. >> joh

[laughter] >> this is why karine jean-pierre long ago lost all credibility.aight face she trays to pretend that she doesn't understand the question. awkward? what's awkward about that? are you kidding me? [laughter] you know, biden resents kamala and, you know, she probably resents him, so they had a lunch. yeah, it's probably the testify in addition of awkward -- the definition of awkward, and it's silly for karine jean-pierre to deny it. elizabeth: it's going to be awkward tomorrow when trump meets biden at the white house. let's move on to this story -- >> oh, yeah. [laughter] elizabeth: okay, this controversy, why is new york judge juan merchan delaying until next week his ruling in the trump new york conviction involving the case of stormy daniels? what's taking so long? is this another violation of trump's sixth amendment rights to the speedy conclusion of a court case, gregg? why is it taking so long? >> well, i think the delay is giving alvin bragg and judge her if chan an offramp, and they should take the exit. the verdicts will nebraska if survive o

karine jean-pierre from a question from jackui heinrich. >> you said that the president would not considerstands? >> it stands. >> now that donald trump is moving into the white house in january the stakes are lower for president biden if he were to choose to pardon his son, hunter or commute a sentence. he is facing two sentence hearing next month on december 12th sentenced in his federal gun case in delaware. following monday out in california for a sentencing in that federal tax case where he pleaded guilty. former president donald trump was asked about a pardon for hunter and didn't come out and say no unless president biden changes his mind it appears hunter biden is scheduled to be sentenced in two cases next month. >> dana: we'll see if they say we've been very clear if that ever changes. thank you so much. >> bill: donald trump's election victory renewing democrats' anxiety of the u.s. supreme court. some are suggesting sotomayor should resign immediately so democrats can replace her during a lame duck session. how would that go over, right? shannon bream covers the coast. host of

out there and our own jacqui heinrich put a question to the white house press secretary, karine jean-pierrehlighted the difference between him and president biden that the threat donald trump was he was saying coach at the theater he was putting in american public and what he said after he was elected. listen here. speak of this administration message to millions of americans during the wake up the day aftee election and trump had their rights stripped away and democracy would complement the president said today we will be okay. so -- >> you are twisting everything around and that is really unfair. no, no, no jack. >> speed tooth did she twist anything around or repeat the president's words? >> repeat the president's words but the problem is when first elected he gave a good speech on unity and healing of the country and the other day on the election on his way out, he gave another good speech on putting these things behind the elections and showed by inviting donald trump to lunch. the problem is everything in between the biden administration just calling threats and democracy fascist and

so yesterday i gave karine jean-pierre the press secretary a chance to explain what the president meant when he said we'll be okay. this was her answer. >> this administration message to millions of americans that they will wake up day after the election if trump won and have their rights whipped away. democracy would crumble and the president said today we'll be okay. >> you are twisting everything around. it is unfair. i've been standing here trying to be very respectful to what happened the last two nights -- two nights ago. being respectful. >> we weren't twisting her words around. here they are. >> you've heard from the former president himself saying he will be a dictator on day one. to be praising adolph hitler is dangerous and disgusting. that type of language is hateful, disgusting, inappropriate and has no place in our country. the president has always been very clear-eyed about this. about the threat of the former president represents to our democracy. when this president decided to run in 2019 and also in 2020 he was very clear he was very clear what he was seeing, right? se

. >> i will let karine jean-pierre speak how it met to the meeting. president biden reinforced his view that the united states standing with ukraine at an ongoing basis is international security interest, to our national security interest because a strong europe, stable europe standing up to aggressor and dictators and pushing back against the aggression is vital to ensuring that we don't end up getting dragged directly into a war which is happen obviously twice in the 20th century on the european continent. the president has made this case and he will continue to make this privately and publicly and he will make the case that our investment in ukraine. the funds at the congress has appropriated, these are not just colors that were picking up and shifting over to another country these are dollars invested in the united states and american jobs producing american weapons that we sent to ukraine in american weapons that we are building to expand our own industrial base in her own military capacity to deter other adversaries all around the world. he laid
