Islamic state remnants across the region. Those demonstrators storming the embassy upset that the u. S. Conducted those airstrikes on sunday. Yesterday, u. S. Secretary of state mike pompeo was on fox talking about really how all of this started on friday of last week. There was a rocket attack against an iraqi base that houses american troops. One American Contractor was killed. And four u. S. Service members injured. This was the reason that President Trump decided to launch this operation within iraq. But it has been controversial with iraqi leadership. Iraqi Prime Minister called it a violation of iraqi sovereignty. The iranian government who does back this Militia Group said this was support of terrorism by the United States. So the big question now is how is all of this going to affect future americaniraqi relations moving forward. What we know right now hundreds of iraqi demonstrators in baghdad have stormed the u. S. Embassy there are some reports of rubber bullets and tear gas being fired. Right now it does appear that those u. S. Embassy security guards are completely overwhelmed. This is set up to be a very difficult situation for u. S. Forces. And moving forward, we are going to continue to monitor this story throughout the day to see what unfolds at the u. S. Embassy in baghdad. Back to you. Griff trey, i want to ask you a question, as we watch this unfold, reports that the u. S. Ambassador and key staff have been evacuated. Do we have any indication when that has happened and sort of what the u. S. Response has been to security preparation . We are working to confirm that information at this hour. We do know back in may the United States put out an order from the state department to remove all nonessential personnel from iraq. This as demonstrations have rocked the country this entire year against the government. We actually sought Prime Minister resigning earlier this year and he stayed in that role really as a symbolic thing to try to keep the calm and keep some structure and order in the Iraqi Government. Again at this hour, we cant confirm the evacuations that have taken place. There are reports that all of the essential Embassy Staff has been ordered to leave the country. We are working at this hour to confirm that information that has been reported by reuters. As the a result of Iraqi Security officials who have spoken with that organization. One other point of note though, the United States has tried to maintain some presence there following what President Trump has described as the defeat of the Islamic State. All of this really has been ernesto twinsd because when you step back and look at the larger picture, this Group Hezbollah that was targeted in iraq and syria over the weekend by u. S. Airstrikes has previously helped to liberate the iraqi city of mosul during the height of the fight against the Islamic State. So moving forward this was a group that was supported by the Iraqi Government and, again did, have ties to Senior Leadership and still does today within the government in baghdad. Certainly going to be a difficult situation for President Trump and the administration to navigate in the days to come. Griff yeah. All right. Trey yingst in jerusalem. Thank you very much, trey. Rachel thank you, trey. Griff trey, very good important point this larger picture issue. If our viewers are just watching, these are harrowing images and certainly we are going to see violent images this morning as we try to ring in the new year. Whats important to note that trey hit on is the iranbacked group, hezbollah brigade, different than the one you are normally used to from the Lebanese Hezbollah still iranbacked has now been pushing control of the Iraqi Government and you had iraqis just weeks and months ago protesting that now the airstrikes, the administration send ago message after last week after an American Contractor was killed. The administration saying no. Were not going to let that go unnoticed. We are not going to let that continue. Sought administration, i think, we will see a statement at some points i hope this morning that says that that airstrike killing 25 hezbollah brigades was in response to attacking American Contractor and a strong response says that we will continue to respond in similar manner. This is about protecting american lives and about protecting iraqi lives. Rachel meanwhile, senator marco rubio just tweeted iran is directly responsible for orchestrating the storming of the u. S. Embassy in iraq and must be held accountable for it and the safety of every american serving. There yesterday, dean, we had, you were here with us and we had secretary pompeo on saying that, you know, while this is backed by iran, the iranian people dont like seeing this. They are suffering right now. Griff the iraqi people. Rachel the iraqi people. The iranians backing, this thiraqi people arent going to be happy to know this is where some of their money is going. Dean a horrible situation. Brings back memories of benghazi and that whole situation with our consulate there being stormed. Its an awful situation. And im really interested to see how the administration is going to react. Griff it is interesting, dean, as americans wake up and think perhaps about benghazi, we have to separate the difference. Trey mentioned in the fight for mosul and i was showing some of the producers pictures in november 21, 2016 i sought Iran Revolutionary guard come into the east gate it. Caused a standoff with iraqis who didnt want to let go. It was a power struggle now in the wake of americans withdrawing. Even though we have 5,000 troops over there we have largely withdrawn our footprint. The iranians have really taken a strong hold it is no surprise for our viewers to wake up and see iran is fomenting protests because they want to shift the iraqi peoples angst as you point out, rachel, on the u. S. Not on irans control within iraq. Rachel right. Absolutely. There is other evil out there. Right now evil exists so says the armed hero jack wilson who took down the killer or the shooter in that west texas church just recently. Listen to what he has to say as he recounts how he felt about what he had to do in order to save all those people. I dont feel like i killed an individual. I killed evil. I dont see myself as a hero. I see myself as doing what needed to be done to take out the evil threat. My training, you know, says that if i see a weapon, especially in that scenario because that is my job. I am the deacon in charge of security of the church. And the people that were on the security team, we have spent, you know, numerous hours training and working on, you know, just this type of scenario, hoping it never happens. Dean jack wilson doesnt want to call himself a hero that man is a hero. The situation that he was faced with and his the amount of training that he has done to reacted to that situation is amazing. We had dan bongino on yesterday morning. He was talking about how these guys reacted in that kind of pressure. That gentleman is a hero and, to take that head shot at 50 yards or whatever that was, 50 feet, thats a really tough shot. And its amazing under those sort of circumstances. Griff you are honorary Law Enforcement Police Officer. Once you get that training, when you need it most its there. Ken paxton the Texas Attorney general says i hopes other states and other chunks elsewhere with l. Take the lead here. We had an incident two years ago in shoulder springs where 20 people were killed. The legislature responded worked. We cant stop every incident. We need to be prepared as jack discussed. This church was prepared and they are an example of what can be done within six seconds they dealt with the issue and saved potential hundreds of people. I hope that other churches around the country will adopt policies like this and we can stop losing so many people when these incidents occur. Rachel anyone who questions whether this works or not, to have an armed person inside of a church, inside of a school, this is on videotape, thats what is so amazing about. This they were livestreaming this service so this was caught on video. Its just incredible. Again, he was welltrained as you said. He actually had a range that he trained the other security giewrdz on. Definitely the model of what you want in a situation like this. We have tomi lahren coming up on this show today. She strong Second Amendment rights advocate and hear a lot more about that. Meanwhile, says he would consider a republican for his Vice President but he just cant think of one right now. Listen. Our 21yearold is on the other need i wonder if joe biden would consider choosing a republican as a running mate . The answer is i would but i cant think of one now. [laughter] no, no, no, no, no. Listen. [applause] no, im serious. Heres what i mean. Let me say that there are some really decent republicans that are out there, still. But, heres the problem right now. The wellknown ones. They have got to step up. [applause] do you know what i mean . [applause] im not being a wise guy. But, a lot of people. Griff i love by the way biden just walks off camera and the cameraman no knock on him or her oh wait, he moved. So what do you think . Rachel do you think he is serious . I dont. The fact that he cant name one person that he would be willing to work with. Dean it was the funniest line without trying to be fun yuvment its hysterical. I just cant think of one right now. Its great that he is sort of reaching out. I like the fact that he would say its a possibility and then come back, of course, with the punch line. I think its nice to see a little bit of unity and crossing lines but i dont think thats going to happen. Rachel i think whats interesting, too. There is an element of trump in there. You dont know whats going to come out of joe biden. I think the voters really want that you do feel like he is really telling you what he thinks. And i think thats a positive thing for him. Although i dont think that he would really do that democrats wouldnt stand for it. Griff that moment the political reporter in me is telling he didnt have an answer. If you go back to mccain when he ran for president there was calls for unity. There was a consideration that he might pick jerome a bipartisan ticket. It would be remarkable thing to happen. Now look at today. We are tremendously more politically divided. You would think that he would have an answer. Mitt romney, i dont know, somebody at the tip of his tongue and is he walking all over the stage not able to think of anybody. There is 55 republican senators just pick one and throw it out there. Its a little bit disingenuous he doesnt have a name ready to go. Dick dick he threw out nothing. He didnt throw out a name. Griff toss to jillian. Happy new year. Jillian happy new year. Lets start with this. A Police Officer is hit by a car and killed killing a suspect in tennessee.

Griff griff disgraced former fbi agent peter strzok accusing the federal government of violating his rights to privacy and free speech. Claims antitrump texts were protected by the First Amendment even though he sent them on an fbiissued phone. Here to react Fox News Contributor and former federal prosecutor Andy Mccarthy author of ball of confusion. Happy new year to you. What is this court filing all about. Griff, happy new year. The court filing is about strzok trying to get his, you know, the attendant benefits of his being an fbi agent for such a long time restored. But, he said this is actually an easy one. He is simply wrong. You dont have a right, as a government employee, to use government facilities to do nongovernment work of any kind. And if you are investigating or if you are an investigator and you are investigating political Corruption Cases, you obviously dont have a right to talk politics, much less politics that connects to the people that you are investigating on your governmentissued communication devices. Thats like a nobrainer. Griff andy, strzoks attorneys argue though this leaves, quote, thousands of career federal employees without protections. No, it doesnt. Look, i was a federal prosecutor for 20 years. This is really easy, griff. You just dont use your government facilities in order to do nongovernment business of any kind. You know, we have had these, for example, under the hatch act we have had these secure measures in place, these precautions in place for years where people government officials whose jobs are closely connected with politics, know that they cant do politics, fund raise, talk politics on their governmentissued communications devices. And they have to use their own time and they have to use private facilities to do it. And it worked for everyone. Plus, strzok is particularly ill suited to be raising this claim on behalf of anyone because unlike most agent, he has a top level fbi official who was doing public Corruption Cases and his political chatter affected and undermind the investigation he was doing. So that puttin puts him in a vey different category. Griff sounds like first 2020 peter strzok will not succeed in this lawsuit. He will strike out. Griff thank you, Andy Mccarthy. Happy new year to you. Hope you have a good one. Thank you, griff. Happy new year. Griff armed shooter stopped in six seconds. Tomi lahren joins us live coming up.

Gunman opening fire texas church ending six seconds after armed members of the congregation stopped him texas law that allows open carry in places of worship. They are going to protect their congregation and they are going to protect the pastors. Look. Jason parttime who dont know pastors personally dont know how many threats they get. Camwatching him. You cant pull your gun first. Tough react. Jack wilson took him down. Thats the law you can carry if the church allows it. Rachel here to react is host on fox nation tomi lahren. Happy new year. Glad to be here. Rachel they cant be everywhere so thats why texas passed this law. How do you think people like joe biden, beto orourke, activists said its a bad idea to allow people to arm themselves in churches and schools. What do you think they do now that they have it this footage . You have a lot of democrats and antigun rights advocates being very quiet because they dont want to talk about what happened in texas because they know its a win for the Second Amendment and they know that its exactly why gun rights advocates talk about the assessment and how important it is. Its not just for hunting. Its not just for recreation. Its for incidents just like this because we understand that when you have gun free zones whether you have gun control laws and legislations and you increase those all you are doing is neutering lawabiding citizen like those very church goers in that church trained and ready to respond because is that true only way we are going to root out evil is for good people to stand up, to step up and do what they have been trained to do. Thats what you saw in texas. The democrats dont want to fess up to that. They dont want to own that they know it doesnt do anything to their antigun narrative that they will be pushing all through this election cycle. Dean seems like common sense to have targets hardened targets. Places of worship have unfortunately become targets it. Seems like common sense to harden those targets. Why is there so much push back from the other side . Its very idealistic. Gun control advocates believe the measures they are propose something going to save lives. They are wellintentioned. They dont live in society. More gun laws is not going to solve the problem. Good guys are always going to be the ones that stand up against bad guys. Bad guys dont care about your law us. If they cared about your laws they would respect the laws on the book to not carry a shotgun into the church and change lives. Its up to us to protect and defend ourselves and others. Griff tomi, quickly, you have a new episode of no interruption coming up. Watch this clip. Do you forgive the person that did this to you. Me and god actually talked about it. I forgive him.

Fox news contributor and former wall street Financial Research analyst liz peek is here to explain. Happy new years. Thank you. Rachel you say Michael Moore is right but not for the same reason that he says that. I think if run Bernie Sanders this time around come to their senses because he will be squashed by donald trump and nominate a middle of the road candidate next time. Michael moores contention is that Hillary Clinton lost in 2016 because she was too moderate. Because she didnt push for the revolution that Bernie Sanders is pushing for. I think he is totally wrong and history tells us this. Every time the democrats run a far left candidate, George Mcgovern in 1972, Walter Mondale in 1984, they lose in a landslide. Walter mondale won 17 electoral votes in 1972. And mondale won his own state only his own state in 1984, when democrats run, a middle of the road candidate, a moderate, jimmy carter, bill clinton that is their hope of winning the oval office. And not these far left candidates. Rachel but then that would leave, say, someone like joe biden, correct . Right. Rachel doesnt he look as flawed in many ways as Hillary Clinton . I mean a lot of people complain that she was corrupt. Now because of impeachment tainted with corruption. And most amazing this judgment to me that the democrats went after donald trump on ukraine, knowing that the one name that would be raised every single time we talked about ukraine was joe biden. Their frontrunner. Testimony almost an astonishing things. Now, of course we are coming up to a senate trial witness probably should be joe biden. And he is saying he wont appear. Which is kind of muddying the waters to future mildly. Michael moore thinks that joe biden is hillary light. Is he a moderate or he has positioned himself as a moderate. I dont think he is particularly a moderate candidate. I think is he still very leftleaning you have to be in todays democratic party. But thats his view. And i think he is wrong. I think joe biden probably has the best chance of beating donald trump. I dont think he has much of a chance. The economy is too strong. Donald trump has followed through on his promises. Michael moore said, the key issue is that Donald Trumps supporters have stuck with him through thick and thin. And they have absolutely no intention of moving away from him no matter. What so, i think thats a tough road. Rachel Michael Moore called it last time as far as trump support. Exactly. Rachel thanks a lot, liz. Grape oped. Catch it if you havent read it and thanks a lot. Thank you. Rachel coming up, hosting a Party Tonight . Well, if you havent started preparing, stick around, because chef george is here with some easy snacks that your guests will love.

Rachel trey yingst is live in jerusalem with what sparked the protests. Trey . Dean, rachel, griff, good morning. As we speak, hundreds of iraqi demonstrators have stormed the u. S. Embassy in baghdad. These demonstrators are supporters of the iranianbacked iraqi she a Militia Group hezbollah that was attacked by the United States on sunday in both iraq and syria. That group says that at least 25 of its fighters were killed in this response by the United States to rocket fire on friday that left one American Contractor dead and four u. S. Service members injured. What we know right now about the embassy that is being stormed, there are hundreds outside. And according to reports, u. S. Security guards are currently on the roof, firing tear gas, rubber bullets and sound grenades in an effort to push back protesters. Other reports from on the ground in baghdad indicate that Iraqi Security forces are being used right now to try to separate the crowds of people from the u. S. Embassy compound. We have also seen video of fires being lit. Glass being smashed. And also, people outside in military uniforms. Its unclear right now what military groups these demonstrators are from. Likely against supporters of this organization. Hezbollah. This as iraqi Prime Minister called the u. S. Strikes on sunday in iraq a violation of iraqi sovereignty. The iranian government in tehran calling the u. S. Action, quote support of terrorism. But, again, today at this hour, hundreds of iraqi demonstrators on the ground in baghdad storming the u. S. Embassy compound. We have not yet heard from the president. Just one tweet this morning from President Trump regarding u. S. Elections and joe biden, but nothing yet on this u. S. Embassy being stormed in baghdad. Well certainly follow this story throughout the day. Its a very difficult situation for u. S. Forces on the ground. As embassies in the surrounding area are confirming that u. S. Staff are still inside the embassy as hundreds of angry demonstrators do gather outside. Back to you. Griff trey, a quick question. That is we are seeing out there some people saying that these are protesters, demonstrators reacting to the developments also seeing much of that crowd storming the embassy right now as we see are closely tied with the Iran Revolutionary Guard Quds Force iranbacked militia. Well, the very interesting thing Group Hezbollah iraqi she a Militia Group receives direct support from the Iranian Regime in tehran. Additionally this group has ties to the Iraqi Government in baghdad. So, its all part of this extremely complicated web which is why you actually saw iraqi Prime Minister speak out against this action by President Trump and the u. S. Administration to strike within iraqi sovereign territory because hezbollah has ties to the Iraqi Government and also the iranians. So it puts the u. S. In a very difficult situation because, remember, there are more than 5,000 u. S. Service members still on the ground in iraq, helping the Iraqi Security forces to fight the Islamic State and remnants left of this organization. And moving forward, the big question is going to be what happens to the iraqiamerican relationship because we have seen so many officials in the Iraqi Government speak out against President Trump and the administration. The big question, will u. S. Troops stay on the ground in iraq . Will they continue to have this invitation by the Iraqi Government to stay there and fight isis . Rachel interesting. Griff trey yingst in baghdad. The bijerusalem. The administration clearly sending a signal with those airstrikes killing 25 of the hezbollah brigades not related to the lebanese one but one iran backed militia in iraq and the administration saying that you will not endanger, harm americans or iraqis. Remember it was the hezbollah brigades, iranback you had michelle that fired missiles into an iraqi base where we had u. S. Contractors with some troops now, some 5,000 in iraq. There is going to be decisions to be made, i am expecting at some point we will hear from the president. We will hear from the administration. I suspect that we will hear that they are not going to president actually treated american killed contractor wounding many. We strongly responded and always will. Now iran is orchestrating an attack on the u. S. Embassy in iraq. They will be held fully responsible. In addition, we expect iraq to use its forces to protect the embassy and so notified. Griff there you have it. As we were saying. This is going to be something that is going to play out over the next several weeks and months because, the iranbacked militia that has sparked all of this has been there since 2016. This is years in the making. And they are trying to take control their there. It was just weeks and months ago that you saw the iraqi people not generated by the iranians pushing back pushed iran influence. Now you see iran trying to push to turn this against the u. S. And certainly these are harrowing images. And pictures coming out. And we pray and hope for any american in that embassy or elsewhere inside the country. You were saying its been going on since 2016. Really been going on a lot lot longer than that iran, when we were in there fighting. When all those troops in there. So many iran munitions and things were come through. They have been putting pressure on for so long. Now that we have so few troops there, they are finding this to be an opportunity and certainly trying to make it them against its iran against the u. S. Rachel challenge for donald trump, i think, he has been saying that he wants to pull us out of this area and here we see another complication and something that may keep us there longer than we probably wanted. Griff that tweet there saying he will not tolerate for americans or iraqis to be endangered by this iranbacked militia. Rachel an armed hero, jack wilson, who took down a man who opened fire inside his texas church says he doesnt consider himself a hero. He says i see myself as doing what needed to be done. Take a look. I dont feel like i killed an individual. I killed evil. I dont see myself as a hero. I see myself as what needed to be done to take out an evil threat. My training says if i see a weapon, especially in that scenario, because that is my job. Im the deacon in charge of security of the church. And the people that were on the security team, we have spent, you know, numerous hours training and working on just this type of scenario, hoping it never happens. Dean that gentleman doesnt call himself a hero but he is the definition of a hero. Most heroes say im not a hero. Bless him. We had tomi lahren on earlier. Listen to what she had to say. You have a lot of democrats and gun right advocates out there being very quiet right now because they dont want to talk about what happened in texas they know its a win for the assessment. Its not just for hunting. Its not just for. We understand whether you have gunfree zones and have guncontrol laws and legislation when you increase those neutering lawabiding citizen like those church goers in that church trained and ready spo respond. Good guys are always going to be the ones stand up against bad guys. Bad guys dont care about your laws. They f. They cared about your laws they would respect about the laws on the book and not carry a shotgun into a church and destroy innocent lives. Its not going to change the mind set of a monster or killer or somebody who is mentally unstable. Griff you know, they say what defines a hero is what do you in a split second in a moments notice. Rachel in six seconds. Caught on video. I saw an earlier Facebook Post he basically thanks god that he was given this kind of training that he could certain his church in this manner. 240 people thank god he was there the most properly trained perfect model of what you want in a situation like this. With that training you dont know if you are going to react that way in those circumstances. And the shot he took was kind of brilliant. Its a very difficult thing to do and with a handgun at 50 feet. Moving target. And all of that happening. It was incredible. Griff ben carson addressing the homelessness in los angeles. What to do about it. Whether the administration could get involved. Well, secretary carson on fox last night heres what he had to say. I have been to california a number of times and i have seen those people. And first of all, i recognize that across the country, if you take the other 49 states and average it out, homelessness is going down. There is enough of an increase in california 16. 4 to drive the entire equation up by 2. 7 it. Tells you how significant the problem is it should be recognized that this is a state and local government responsibility. It is not the responsibility of the federal government. Federal government is quite willing to help, however. But its going to require, you know, local authorities and the state to cooperate. Stop throwing fire bombs and wanting to actually get this thing done. The blame game. Mayor de blasio came out and said it was trumps fault that this is happening. These things need to be taken care of within the states. I live in california. We see it every single day. We have there is a democratic super majority in california. And were undergoing an economic boone boom but they are not taking care of this crisis. Speaking of local. 30 of housing cost is because of regulations and ordinances and zoning. Things in liberal states and cities they are really friendly toward those things. This is why ben carson is saying we will jump in, we will help. But yall have to do your part. Homelessness going down in lots of places except for cities where mayors are blaming the president i got it. Rachel he did say that if you take california out, actually the homeless rate is dropping. Griff turn it over to jillian. Jillian following this story out of tennessee right now. A Police Officer is hit by a car and killed chasing a suspect in tennessee. Master Patrol Officer Spencer Bristol was running after a man on an interstate near nashville when he was hit. Two people under arrest. Colleagues in the Hendersonville Police department are heart broken. I hired him on september the 12th of 2015. And i never saw anyone who wanted to be a Police Officer as much as he did. Spencer bristols was an example of what an officer should be. Jillian officer bristol was a u. S. Navy veteran. He leaves behind a wife and 3yearold daughter. To extreme weather now. A major winter storm dumped snow from the midwest to new england. The Minnesota State patrol responding to nearly 200 crashes since monday morning. In north dakota, this police truck needed to be pulled out after getting caught in the snow. Winter weather stretching august the way to the east coast. In new york city, a wind turbine collapsed and fell on to a car. 2020 hopeful Pete Buttigieg take as jab at joe biden criticizing his sons ties to a ukraine gas company. I would not have wanted to see that happen. In my administration, well have a very High Standard around ethics. And making sure that we do everything we can to prevent even the appearance of a conflict. Jillian buttigieg making the comments to the associated press. He and biden are seen as democratic frontrunners in the 2020 race. Now a live look in times square where we are still hours away from 2020. But, its already a brand new decade in new zealand. 3, 2, 1. [cheers] there we have it. Thousands of people ringing in the new year with fireworks outside of australia. Officially ending its live possum drop this year after a years long battle with Animal Rights activists who said it was cruel to lower the possum in plexiglass box at the stroke of midnight. I didnt know that was a thing. Now you learned when i heard possum drop i didnt know there was a box. Jillian griff, you should go ask them. Dean my son ithem. Dean. Rachel only way to fix income inequality. Its not working so well for much of anyone else, that is corruption. We are going to make it easier for workers to join unions. Griff we have Charles Payne all ready to tell us whats going on happy new year. Looking so sharp im winning this is the Epson Ecotank color printer. No more buying cartridges. Big ink tanks. Lots of ink. Print about. This many pages. The Epson Ecotank. Just fill and chill. When you see auto government that works great for those at the top, works great for those with money, and is not working so well for much of anyone else, that is corruption. You need a union. Our government is there to represent the working class. We are going to make it easier for workers to join unions. Griff democratic hopefuls Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren claim the only way to increase wages for the working class is through bigger government and unions. Dean free market numbers tell a very different story. New wage Growth Numbers are off the charts and Blue Collar Workers are the big winners. Rachel here to react host of making money on fox business Charles Payne. So what do you say . You know, i have been talking about this for over a year because september 2018 was the first month in decades where not supervisory workers, Blue Collar Workers, wages went up faster than everyone elses. Its happened in 13 of the last 14 months. Rachel incredible. Rocket ship right now. I have got to tell you its really absolutely remarkable. The idea of talking about it reunions when they have been rejected by the public. Unfortunately people have been warming up to the idea of unions. Unions i think it was a gallup poll. The opinion of unions are 50year high. You get the story about the union guy, the uaw guy with the cigars and 6,000 villas. The money and so listen, the economy is working. America, the spirit of america is back. Its been unleashed. Its what we are all about. How does this young start up nation. Griff market is up. Is it helping the people argument its not reaching them. 55 of americans are in the market one way or another. 401 k s. Retirement plans, pension plans,directly in the markets. Over a jowmplet you will cant say 55 of americans for almost anything. Anything else. So, there is number one. One example i use is this year target stock is up 96 . Also for the holidays target hired 10,000 people. The same drivers that allowed them to hire 190,000 people is why their stock is up almost 100 percent this year. By the way thats called shared prosperity. Rachel you talk a lot about dirty fingernail job the dignity to work. And talk to us about what joe biden just said about coal miners. Oh my goodness. Rachel actually, lets take a look at the clip. He asked me toward the end of our administration joe is going to determine what the jobs of the future are anybody can go down 300 to 300,000 feet in the mind sure the hell can learn how to brahm as well. Anybody who can throw coal into a furnace can learn how to program for god sake. There is a reason they dont want him to talk on the campaign trail. Part of this discussion he talked about the reason he knows that coal miners can do this is in detroit, when detroit fell apart no one knew how to fix it. Put a black women and put them in his liberal friends told him it wouldnt work. Now they have the lights back on. The idea these black women can do it anyone can do it. So insulting on so many levels. Rachel is this coal minor comment the new deplorable. Worse and its dumb. Talk about facts beyond the emotions of this crazy thing he just said in this country the average minor job 200,000. Folks that work with oil and gas roughnecks 165,000. Average programming job 84 grand. Take someone making 165,000 and were going to just retrain them and teach them how to code. I mean, what are they going to do . Its just so far fetched its crazy. By the way, those Computer Programming jobs, 250,000 of them. But the next ten years its estimated we are going to need less. Going to go down 7 . Its hurtful though. Its hurtful to dismiss the intellect of those miners. Intellect of people of color. So despicable. Glad he said it but its hurtful he said it. Griff making money with Charles Payne 2 00 p. M. On fox business it. Will be very interesting to see what we have in the new years. We have a lot going on. One of those the worlds best se executives on the run. Cant wait to talk about it.

Murder mystery just named the most popular release on netflix this year. The comedy film stars Jennifer Aniston and adam sandler. 100 million. Thats how much universal could lose from movie musical cats. Earned just 38 million after two weeks in theaters. Dean . Dean from shutting down conservatives to removing mascots. It was a wild year on College Campuses across the country. Griff here to break it down craziest stories of 2019. Editor and chief of campus reform. Org. Cabot phillips. Great clips. Start with one where i live near d. C. I think that like the whole colonial thing is like a little white supremacisty. I would like to see a better moss scott. Colonial is kind of a touchy word. Did i sign the petition. I do understand that it is offensive to like other countries. I heard that you are not supposed to wear the colonials name when you go abroad. Griff oh my goodness. Cabot, why are you trying to get rid of the g. W. Colonial. Didnt you know colonial mascot sign of White Supremacy and fascism. A giants petition at George Washington to remove the colonial mascot which for these students who dont know it its just by definition someone that lives in a clone which everyone in north america was at the time of our founding. Its not some offensive term. But this is a growing trend of students doing everything in their power to remove anything that could offend them. And this is really the result of a culture that incentivizes people to be offended. People say when we say that something oppresses us or offends us the university will bow down. We saw other universe in wiping there was a push to remove the cowboy moss scott toxic mass can a lint. Pioneer mascot a sign of racism. Crusader in massachusetts removed because of a sign of religious violence a growing trend. Something we saw all throughout 2019. I think a few more mascots will be on the chopping block in 2020 if we allow this pc craziness to go on. Rachel absolutely. The next one is really close to my heart. It involves conservative students on University Campuses being taunted. Take a look. I cant talk if you are on split screen. You want one at a time then . [chanting pack it up] no justice, no peace no. Racist police. Tell us whats happening here and what conservative students face on campus in situations like. This there is a big difference between students confronting one another and having debates and meaningful dialogue and back and forth. Thats certainly protected speech. We saw in this video and many others is things devolving into mob mentalities, threatening language being used. Harassment in this video. Students were forcibly removing tables, packing things up. Get in students faces. Sadly that has become the norm. Many times these things just arent captured on video. When you are unaccustomed to hearing ideas that you havent ever heard before and on a College Campus thats conservative ideas. Naturally you are not going to know how to respond to them. For some conservative students, they want to set up a conservative group and go out and ideas and often met with intimidation peers have never met a conservative student. They dont know how to react. I dont want to have to hear this. This makes me uncomfortable and leads to tactics. Rachel groups selfsensors. Dont set up the tables or wear the maga hat. Dean talk about this one that took place on berkeley. A conservative gets punched in the face, this was a clip that went viral, take a look. [bleep] [bleep] that. Why my coworker there at the Leadership Institute Hayden Williams and he was on campus helping conservative students spread their ideas and clearly was attacked there. Its not just a few bad apples either that are committing these violent acts against conservative people. One in three College Students thinks violence is an acceptable response to hate speech. The problem is they label everything hate speech so violence becomes a much more common response. We need to hold these people accountable our conservative students to spread ideas. Rachel the Administration Needs to hold these students accountable and kick them out if they are doing that. Griff campus reform. Org. Hold them accountable in the new year. Thank you. Griff counting down to 2020 live in times square. Adam klotz is there. Adam . Hey, good morning, guys. Yeah, we have got all the activities, all the fun. Part of it. We have really cool hats.

Griff stabbing inside a rabbis home last weekend. This as a texas parishioner is hailed a hero for stopping a sunday service of the state law former secret Service Agent tim miller is ceo of loin art international. Happy new year to you. Thanks for being here. We are seein seeing this trend d perhaps the take away most recently out of texas is maybe more houses of worship would like this sort of thing. What do you say . Cialtion griff, first thanks for having me. Its great to be here. The culture in our society is changing. And churches and synagogues, we need to have plans, we need to have the ability to stop what we saw happen both in texas and new york interesting thing is one was at home another at a church. Those security concerns are not bound by traditional limits unfortunately its a new world and we have to think about it in a different way. Griff chow churches and synagogues and many with little means that cant afford to just hire traditional Security Service how can they better protect themselves . Thats a great question, griff. Thats what we try help with there are basically three things that any church, regardless of size needs. Thats a team thats focused on this. The right hearted team. Training, good training. And then technology. And technology such as cameras used to be, you know, cost prohibitive. And now they are not. And what i found is that if we go in and we help organizations, churches, you know, find the right people. Because what we dont want to do is we dont want to get in the way of the mission of the church. The church is a place where you want hurting people to come. You want them to be able to come and not feel like its a police state. But, you definitely need the ability to protect them. And thats one thing i think all churches across the country are waking up to. They need to have a plan. They need to have a team. And we saw mr. Wilson illustrate that beautifully. Griff sure. Beautifulfully texas. Griff he like you, years of training and fortunately kicked. In let me talk to you about the law though in texas. Should other states be emulating this . Are there lessons to learn from the texas law that provided the other key element aside from the personnel and that is the ability to have someone a good guy with a gun against a bad guy with a gun . Yeah. You know, griff, as you know, my background as a marine in the secret service, i swore to uphold and support the constitution. And the constitution provides protection. You know, for citizens to defend themselves. I am a big advocate for the state enabling churches and other organizations to protect themselves because can you imagine how this would have been different had they not had a trained team that was ready to act and respond and they had to wait several minutes for the police to come and im a big Police Supporter but that would have been a who are risk event and so it does rest now with churches to protect themselves. And i agree that having laws in place that enable them to do that is critical. Griff all right. Tim miller, thanks very much for your insight. Unfortunately, this is an era where, perhaps, we have to find our own solution. Thank you for being here. Happy new year. Thank you, its an honor to be here. Happy new year to you. Griff all right.

Talk to your doctor, and call 8442142424. Fox news alert breaking right now, angry protestors are inside the u. S. Embassy compound in iraq, the crowds setting fire and flags with american soldiers standing guard inside. Trey yngst live in jerusalem with what sparked the protest, trey. Rachel, griff, good morning, as we speak hundreds of iraqi demonstrators have stormed American Embassy in baghdad, multiple u. S. Security troops in u. S. Embassy compound trying to pushback protestors, so far we have seen images of fires being set outside and glass being smashed as Iraqi Security forces trying to calm the situation, President Trump did tweet blaming iran for orchestrating this attack on the u. S. Embassy, we have no evidence at this time this was a direct orchestration by the Iranian Regime but theres evidence on the ground that this is a result iranianbacked groups in the area, one piece of graffiti sprayed says no to america, thats the leader of irans revolutionary guard, remember all of this starting as a result of air strikes conducted by the United States on sunday against an iraqi shiite Militia Group, hezbollah, america killed at least 25 of its fighters in strikes over the weekend, those strikes were as a result of rocket attack on friday, one American Contractor killed and four u. S. Service members injured, all we have heard from President Trump is that one tweet, lets be very clear here, there are american lives at risk as a result of this embassy being stormed and as we speak Iraqi Security forces are working with those american Security Forces to try to push back demonstrators from the embassy and ensure that no one inside is hurt or killed. Back to you. All right, thanks, trey, quick question as you continue to monitor this, do we have any more indication as to how american civilians are doing in and around the compound . According to reports, the ambassador is not in the embassy, he was on a previously scheduled vacation, but what we understand right now is there are u. S. Forces inside the embassy, at each embassy you always have american troops to guard diplomats and ambassador, those taking part in the diplomacy of the United States abroad, right now, again according to report there are americans inside which complicates the situation further and only limited things that President Trump will be able to do from the u. S. , this is an operation that if theres something done to try to save the americans inside will have to be done locally, its very difficult and as we have seen in the past can be deadly when there are raids or different operations to try to save people from embassy thats being stormed, you can look back to late 70s in iran but right now its important to note that there are Iraqi Security forces trying to push back the protestors and we have seen images of teargas, rubber bullets and other crowd controlled techniques being used. Thank you very much, hes very right, trey, you have to look at this big picture, the president trying to look after american lives in and iraqi lives. We strongly responded and always will, iran is orchestrating attack on u. S. Embassy in iraq, theyll will held fully responsible in addition we expect iraq to use its forces to protect embassy and so notified as trey was mentioning, iraqi forces are doing that. He said also that someone spray painted remember it is head of iraqi revolutionary force, they are iranianbacked militia that were attacking security bases and the spray painting may be a very important thing to note because its a telltale sign protestors maybe more largely a orchestrated effort by iranian backed militia, to put the onus on americans because it was just weeks and months ago that the iraqi people were protesting irans influence on thinker own government. Marco rubio from florida tweeting its beyond dispute that the Shiite Militia in iraq arent just backed by iran, they are directed and controlled by them, any attacks by them, direct work of irans irgc and government of iraq which has enjoyed billions of dollars of u. S. Aid and health and protection of military, needs to be remember they have obligation to protect all diplomatic facilities. And, you know, i was pointing out earlier and i will say one more time, i was with oliver north in mosul, we watched irans revolutionary guard corp. , there was a standoff then and iranbacked militia, 3 plus years ago they were trying to exert influence and certainly seeing that manifest and play out now. Pallets of unmarked bills over to iran, this is the kind of stuff that they are fomenting in the middle east and against our troops, very troubling, indeed, we pray really for all those americans and everyone thats inside of that compound and inside of the embassy. Real tough situation. Absolutely. Here back at home we are talking about that hero down in texas. Jack wilson, he took down a man who opened fire inside texas church and he says he doesnt consider himself a hero, i dont know why because he is and he said, i see myself as doing what needed to be done, here he is. I dont feel like i killed an individual, i killed evil, i dont see myself as a hero, i see myself doing what needed to be done to take out the evil threat, my training, you know, says that if i see a weapon especially in that scenario because thats my job, im in charge of security at the church and the people that were on the security team, we have spent, you know, numerous hours training and working on, you know, just this type of scenario, hoping it never happens. Amazing man, complete hero, unbelievable reactions, you talked about it earlier, being a hero at the moment in time, 5 second, 6 Second Period time of life where you have to react, he certainly did and hes a tremendous hero. The thing about it, the targets being so soft. I think its just its so important to hardened these targets and thats why they had done and saved a whole lot of lives. You to think that a lot of people who are watching that go to church are thinking that maybe they are going to talk to their priest or pastor and say we need to do this. He was trained and trained other security people, so this is a really model example of what other churches can follow in order and synagogues to presenting themselves. He hopes other churches follow too. As you know, we had an incident several years ago, 2 years ago, 20 people were killed and the legislature responded, it worked, we cannot stop every incident, we need to be prepared as jack discussed, this was church was prepared and they are an example of what can be done and within 6 second they dealt with the issue and saved potentially hundreds of people. I hope that other churches around the country will adopt policies like this and we can stop losing so many people when these incidents occur. I think hes completely, Texas Governor greg abbott signed a bill that allowed the people to carry inside the church even though the joe biden said it was i forgot the word he used. He said it was insane. The exact opposite taking place. Interesting to see if this become an issue in 2020 campaign trail, ive certainly been there and continue to be there at the debates and out on the trail, Tulsi Gabbard was once candidate but shes causing headache. Shes not a candidate, is she . Didnt qualify for debate statement but contributing to the discussion out there and she put out there sending alarm on democrats impeachment obsession, here is what she said to say, listen. Unfortunately the house impeachment of the president has greatly increased the likelihood that donald trump will remain the president for the next 5 years. Now, first, we all know that trump is not going to be found guilty and removed from house by the u. S. Senate, its not going to happen. Second, the impeachment in my view will actually increase the support amongst voters and make him harder to defeat, furthermore the house impeachment has increased the likelihood that republicans will take over house of representatives. Wow. This is what the democrat, fellow democrat candidates dont want to hear on the stage. Its why they dont like her. Tulsi gabbard, theres no question, shes a liberal but marchs to her own trump. Shes an independent thinker. I cant be on the debate stage, i will take a page out of donald trump. There he is. I will put on twitter, shes stirring the conversation and making democrats rethink the whole impeachment strategy and see whats really going to happen, shes a truth teller and the democrats dont like her for it, if you recall snl portrayed her literal as wicked witch.

Well democrats finally get the message . We will ask a california conservative bring state residents are run to go greener pastures, according to new census data, hardesthit states like california, new york are seeing most mass peddous losing hundreds of residents. The south is seeing biggest surge, 1 million residents like texas, florida and the carolinas, whats behind the big move . Lets ask the mayor of laguna hills, california. Don, im a california resident; i know how expensive things are in the very blue state, i have considered moving out myself. Whats going on . You hit it on the head . Its too darn expensive to live on the state, democrat liberal policies contribute today that, excess regulations an taxes have made the same home in california 40 more expensive to build here than in other states, you cant blame people for moving out. Don, lets show our viewers here the median prices for homes in california, 589,000, in texas 232,000, its pretty clear with numbers like that youre going to have a lot more californians becoming texans. Well, you know, as mayor of laguna hills i know that the number one job of government is to keep us safe. Gasoline is 4 a gallon as you know, utility prices are high, income taxes are high and everybody, middle class and upper are leaving the state and homelessness increased by 15 and rest of the country trending downward. We want to show viewers, 21,000 Homeless Population there, how much of a factor there it is 21,306 Homeless Population in california, how much of a factor is that alone for the driver of exodus . Thats part of it, even middle class, theres good jobs in california, however, to be able to live near the good job might mean that you cant you cant pull it off, some people are driving 1 and a half to 2 hours commute to get to their jobs, 3 or 4 hours in a car and they are asking is this standard of living, quality of life worth it . I cant blame them. The top percent, many of them are fleeing, i was talking to a guy, super wealthy guy that i know in Orange County who was thinking of buying a home in wyoming, i can afford to buy a private jet and fly back and forth from california and still come out ahead of the taxes that id be saving from california, the homeless, you know, how can you afford a home thats over a half a Million Dollars when when youre just keeping on poverty.

Embassy compound in iraq. Live look at the chaos in baghdad, they are protesting after deadly u. S. Air strike in the middle east. President trump tweeting in response this, iran killed an American Contractor, wounded many, we strongly responded and always will, now iran is orchestrating an attack on trust embassy in iraq, they will be held fully responsible in addition we expect iraq to use forces to protect embassy and so notified we are, indeed, seeing iraqi forces according to trey yngst that iraqi forces responding and story that we will be hearing a lot more about. Theres a force there, you know, this is a telegraph punch, rachel, we have seen the iranbacked militia come in there and take control of the government, it was just a few weeks and months ago that the iraqi people were protesting. Now american response to protect americans and iraqi civilians, the shift focus moving towards, protesting against the u. S. , very fluid situation, indeed. Its going to be confusing for people out there, for sure. Switching gears, Democrat Joe Biden takes a swipe at bluecollar workers, learn thousand program, he says listen to what the president ial candidate has to say . He asked me toward the end of our administration joe is going to determine what the job of the future are, anybody who goes down should learn how to program as well, anyone who can throw coal in a furnace can learn how to program for god sake. This was worst than hillarys deplorable moment, insult of the intelligence of so many of the coal miners, joe coming from an administration that wanted to shut down coal Mining Industry and donald trump change all that, we are the number 1 producers of energy in the world. Charles payne was on earlier and emphatic, listen to charles. Part of this discussion also he talked about the reason he knows that coal miners can do this. They took a bunch of black women, community college, they got the lights back on, the idea and in joe bidens mind black women can do it, anybody can do it. Its so despicable. In 2017 the average miner job was 100,000, folks who work with oil and gas, 165,000, average computer pays 84 grand, essentially saying someone making 165,000 and retrain them. You know an observation as a reporter who has been 4 miles down in the coal mine in West Virginia and in the coal mine in ohio, its not just the dollars, this is a way of life for many of these people, for generations in as coal trying to make comeback under President Trump and foreign energy, they see an opportunity they dont want to be told yet again that what their families have done for generations is something dirty, something that shouldnt be respected and so Vice President biden has to be very careful that hes on raw nerves. Beautiful coal. Theyre not just shoveling coal into a purr furnace. Its more complicated than that.

In new oped next guest explains just how dangerous really is. Christopher ruffo, welcome and happy new year. Happy new year, looks like i missed out on the 9 million percent. [laughter] what did you think when you first heard about abolished movement . You know at first i thought it was a figure of speech or metaphor, as i dug in academic literature n popular literature, like magazine progressive outlets, i was astonished, i realized that the folks actually mean abolishing the police, getting Police Officers off the beat and in their logic replacing it with what theyre saying is either full political and economic equality that would eliminate crime or providing grants to poor communities under this idea that if you can solve the issues of poverty, you can actually eliminate the possibility of crimes. Sounds like fantasy fairy tale stuff to be honest, what would we look like if we didnt have a police force . What would this look like . Well, i think that this is really the contrasted vision, in this kind of progressive utopian vision, they envision the world of political equality, eliminate poverty and no need for the police because people are inherently good although theres alternative vision that would happen in the real world, i think you would see in city like seattle, new york, san francisco, abolish local police, wealthy neighborhoods quickly organize force to maintain order and unfortunately you see poor neighborhoods organize around criminal gangs because in a vacuum of power whoever can dominate physical violence will rule, i think it really shows that even if the people who they purport to want to help would be most effective by even a reduction or total abolition of the police department.
