trey: good evening thank you for joining us i'm trey gowdy. it is "sunday night in america". 2025 as a challenger changes so will government. republicans have been given the gift of governing. donald trump won the presidency in convincing fashion and the word mandate is used a lot in politics, the question is a mandate for what, what will be on the legislative and executive agenda and how quickly can those agendas be implement it. as trump begins joe biden leaves after half a century in politics to the extent people remember how things in, clio will not kind. after promising not to let me campaign on respect for the judicial system and then commuted the sentences of nearly every single death row inmate. it is one thing to be morally opposed to the death penalty. many people are, it's another thing to pick and choose when to honor a jury and went to ignore a jury. biden commuted sentence for 37 different pillars which means he overruled the will of 444 americans who served and sacrificed and were probably sequestered for the dependency of these trials, juries found the defenda

trey: mr.ecretary unique expertise when it comes to foreign policy how do you see u.s. policy changing under the second trump administration? >> i think it will look and feel to the appropriate people is like the first one. to the iranian leadership is going to look like on my goodness we will take out your number two official will put economic pressure on the iranian regime and ways of the biden administration simply failed to do and did not want to do instead of negotiate and think that's great news for slowing down the nuclear program. i think israelis will be comforted to know that they of leadership in governor huckabee and steve with half along with his team in a president who understands the importance of the ally. i think that really means good thing for the prospects of normalization with the gulf arab states they want to know america will have their back when necessary i think you see a fundamental shift in how the middle east create peace and prosperity and reduces the risk that our

trey: you are correct. when i was on the house intelligence committee i actually took a trip to the panama canal for the reasons that you just laid out years what i'm going to do i'm going to nominate you for the nobel peace prize, if you can keep the fractious house together, long enough to pass two bills, you deserve it and most people probably were watching what i was watching. i saw you go into that room and when they came out the two guys change their votes, you keep me in modest and if i were going to keep telling if it wasn't for dusty johnson we might be trying to elect a speaker. thank you for joining us on a sunday night. >> coming up tiktok kings and the balance is a skeptical supreme court heard oral arguments on a potential ban, leader inventors chairman kevin o'leary as part of a bid for the social media giant, he joined ut on that and big changes for big tech. that is next no. i can do some research. ya know, that's backed by j.p. morgan's leading strategists like us. when you want to invest

trey, thank you. we'll bring you back. >> joining us on the phone is bret baier, editor of "special report," fox news and special anchor, and you think about the iranian hostage crisis, you think about carter, and you think about president reagan taking over. the hostages released just after president reagan was sworn in. now president biden is obviously still president but you have to imagine that president trump saying there will be hell to pay, put a fire under and a tail wind behind these negotiations. >> no doubt. good afternoon. i think that it's important following up on what trey just said that you look at the the context of what president-elect trump said with his envoy steve woodkoff down in mar-a-lago, reiterating if it didn't happen, all hell would be to pay, and all of the questions it would look like, and there was a back end, and a lot of pressure, and a demand that hasn't been there, and woodcoff and others praised the biden of working together on working on a deal over weeks. but it i

trey, good to see you. i know you are from south carolina and some of the communities where you live were affected by helene. as you see the president touchdown today, how critical is it that he goes here first and he said he felt like he needed to go there first. yes, california is important. it was later in the game. this area didn't get what it needed when it needed it most. >> two reasons, one is practical and one is inspirational. if you came to my home today i would show you trees that were knocked down by helene that still have not been moved. i'm an hour south of asheville. so my hometown of spartanburg was devastated. without power for multiple weeks. you go north to asheville and others if it weren't for private citizens, private helicopters, that body count would be quadruple what it is now. there is a symbolism to him going there but also the practical impact. there is a democrat governor in north carolina. this has nothing to do with politics. henne mcmaster knows better what south carolina nee

>> brian: trey, what do you think is behind it? some say that there was a fear the prime minister could have his government collapse and he might have indications that that would happen if this was put in front or it was ratified. and, others say maybe he is having second thoughts. >> yeah. look. brian, it's great question. and an important point to note here. the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is facing significant domestic political pressure his own finance manager actually threatened to leave the government which could assist in collapsing this coalition if the deal moved forward. this is not a deal that is widely accepted by everyone in israel hostages out, hundreds of palestinians prisoners, more than 100 of them life sentences things like murder will have to be released as part of this agreement. there is a lot of pressure on the prime minister. of course, these details are going to be worked out in doha, qatar with these negotiators. look, there are real political concerns for the israeli leadership as it right wi

trey. >> trey: four were wounded in the heart of tel aviv. the attacker went to a wine bar and started stabbing civilians. he was chased by bystanders and caught and killed. >> there was a stabbing attack in tel aviv close to center part of the city. the assailant was shot. there are first responders trying to provide first aid. >> trey: learning more about the man's identity, he is a u.s. green card holder from morocco, he came to israel yesterday, he was living in the united states before that. this comes amidshaky ceasefire e eefr -- submitted his resignation yesterday. israel defense minister thanked him for his service and said he'll look for a replacement. israeli forces are still conducting that operation we discussed yesterday in west bank city, there is concern this could affect ceasefire agreement they are targeting hamas cells there. >> brian: wow. trey, how is this reverberating throughout israel and tel aviv with resignation of this general? a lot of people think when the w war, investigations begin. >> trey: absolutely, public o

dana: trey yingst, okay, so a couple of things.oes look chaotic and almost dangerous for these hostages as they try to get out as the clamoring around the cars, it's not very orderly. two, one of my earliest political memories is of the hostages being released, the americans being released from tehran and ronald reagan's enaugust ration. inauguration. and these young women and the other hostages have been held underground for longer than the americans were in tehran. we don't know what they've gone through. we will all be there to try the help them. are these the only hostages we expect in this first phase of the ceasefire, or are there more to come? >> reporter: so the first phase of the ceasefire will last for 42 days. in taillight, 33 hostages -- in total, 33 hostages will be released from hamas captivity during this time. we don't know how many of them are alive and how many dead, but this is the current agreement. they will be exchanged for palestinian prisoners -- [applause] and i want the just reed you an update that we just

trey yingst, thank you for your time, your excellent reporting and insights. i'm going to turn now in the final moments before we hit a commercial break to jameel jaffer for his final thoughts. i know you've been watching along with us, jameel, what do you what do you want to say before we send this off? >> well, i think one, you know, the point that trey just made about the women holding their heads held high on that stage as they're being paraded around, you look at what the israeli soldiers there have set up at that crossing point with the helicopter. they've set up white barriers so these women can be transferred without being sort of a media spectacle. and so the very different treatment that even in this moment that that hamas uses this as a, as a political ploy, while the israelis are simply trying to respect the women's privacy and get them home. >> exactly. thank you, jameel jaffer, for your time this morning. we really, really appreciate your insights there. and again, for those of you just joining us for israeli soldiers have just been released from

thank you, trey. bill: thank you, trey. there's a statement put out from the israeli government for the hostages and missing families, headquarters they have there. after 471 agonizing days in captivity, emily, doron and romi are finally returning home. it represents a beacon of light in darkness, a moment of hope and triumph of the human spirit. they've got more to go. dana: a lot. and that was very beautifully said by trey yingst. and let's bring it back here because there's another huge story happening in thest of all of this. the inauguration of donald trump just one day away. how he is expected to hit the ground running in his paris week. be right back -- in his first week. week. we'll be right start to break away from uc with tremfya... back. with rapid relief at 4 weeks. tremfya blocks a key source of inflammation. at one year, many people experienced remission... and some saw 100% visible healing of their intestinal lining. serious allergic reactions and increased risk of infections may occur. before treatment, your

trey and i talked about this before we came in. is probably the case in new york. in most of the country there is no problem if the state pros -- in new york they have equitable double jeopardy. what that meant as a federal prosecutor here we could win the turf battle. because if we go first, the state can't go at all. they are basically out as we used to say. i thought it was interesting the biden justice department evidently made a deal with bragg that new york could go first on mangione and then the feds would go. i would be very surprised if the trump justice department feels like they have to honor that deal. >> i hate to use the word collusion but pam bondi, todd blanch, kash pat elf they are confirmed will find out if there was collusion between bragg and garland to bring the case in state court. if there was collusion we'll know about it in about three months. >> john: more notes from inside the courtroom. judge merchan in says the trump trial was no different than all of the other criminal trials in the building. merchan attempting to create equivalents be

so trump is finally, trey, having a chance to let loose here.t michael cohen, notes he has been disbarred for other reasons yet allowed to talk like he was george washington. trump is not holding back here. >> neither would most of us when we know we aren't going to jail no matter what we say. there is a certain safety net when you know that you aren't going to get probation, you feel a little bit liberated. i think andy and i both used the word victory when you win the battle and lose the war. alvin bragg you spent months convicting donald trump and got absolutely nothing for it except putting him in the history books as the first republican since george bush to win the popular vote and electoral college. if you wanted to mount him to mount rushmore, bragg and merchan, you were successful. when you know you are not going to jail you can tell the judge exactly what you think
