Transcripts For FOXNEWSW The Daily Briefing With Dana Perino

Step closer to providing a vaccine to the American People and breaking news coming just ds before the big Holiday Season kicked into high gear. The Moderna Company announcing today there candidate for the vaccine appears to be 95 effective according to per luminary data in the ongoing studies which shows strong protection against the coronavirus for those who will take the shot. The news coming one week to the day after pfizer revealed its own vaccine to be just over 90 effective. Both companies hope to get there vaccines for emergency use by the end of the year. This emergency use approval i think will happen in december, and then i think in q1 in the First Quarter well have full approval where every american who wants the vaccine that is of 18 years of age or older can get access to a vaccine. According to moderna, their vaccine will help people relying on global pharmacies for distribution. If approved, both companies will have big benefits. The moderna is more flexible, it can be kept in regular freezer or refrigeration so its amenable to that program we announced last week go into your local chain or Community Pharmacist and getting vaccinated. The pfizer one is really good for big institutional vaccinations, a whole hospital setting, several Nursing Homes at once. And distilled, initial supplies will be limited and rationed. They cdc will help Health Care Providers decide who gets it first. Dana appreciate it. Some areas are retightening restrictions as coronavirus cases continue to spike across the country. The nationwide total now topping 11 million. Its not just the fact that theres more cases, kc, its the fact that hospitalizations are also going up. Thats right, and also the positivity rates in various communities, certainly news of the vaccine is causing all of this guarded optimism but the reality is that right now governors across the country or having to deal with a surge in cases but also in deaths and crowded hospitals. That something we are seeing new jerseys governor today just announcing new restrictions that go into effect there tomorrow. Indoor gatherings now limited to ten people or less, outdoor groups maximum 150. The governor says one and 20 covid cases there has been reported in just the last four days. I our highest case counts are now low longer from when it first started, we are grappling with pandemic batik and we know people have begun to let their guards down. We have to get back in front of this virus. New mexico, oregon, Washington State, other places adding restrictions and michigan no longer having inperson school or amateur sports. Indoor dining also out for both michigan and Washington State and in north dakota, which has seen cases climb and its hospitals overwhelmed now there is a mask mandate through middecember. Cities also enacting their own rules, the city of chicago today has a two week stay at home or to go into effect and philadelphia also announcing new restrictions. Casey, thank you. Lets bring in dr. Natosha, an Emergency Room Physician in austin texas. Lets just start with the good news, when you hear the word about the Pfizer Vaccine and the motor in a vaccine do you feel like you can see some light at the end of the tunnel for all of the patients that youve been caring for this past nine months . Yes, dana, absolutely. This is an excellent news, we have pfizer, moderna, johnson johnson, we also have other vaccines that are in the works. And this is truly going to save lives. But its not going to be effective immediately, its going to take time to rule out distribution and administration and thats why its critical in the meantime we continue to practice social distancing, where your mask and avoid crowds. Thats very important, im seeing recently this past weekend for example a lot of my patients have been going to social gatherings and even small parties and having symptoms. I diagnosed several cases of covid last night and we have the power to control it, we have to be really careful until these vaccines are on the market and available. Dana lets talk about that a little bit. Dr. Fauci this morning on the today show was talking about the end of december. We project that by the end of december, that there will be doses of the Vaccines Available for individuals in higher risk categories from both companies. And this is something we are looking forward to. Dana in addition, can you talk about how Health Care Workers how this might also give them some hope . Health care workers, nurses, physicians, everyone at the hospital has been exhausted. We are in the 11th month of this pandemic, knowing that we have a vaccine coming and available is really a light at the end of the tunnel. We have to be careful though, we are still working on all the safety and deck of hissy data to go to the fda but our regulations for getting vaccines in this country is some of the strictest in the world. I have no doubt that we will be well and get vaccines out hopefully by december but i really want to encourage everyone that this is not the time to let our guards down, we are in our surge in many cities and we need to do Everything Possible that we can to make it to the finish line. We can see it, the vaccine is coming, we are hopeful that our Health Care Workers will be protected. Weve had 1700 Health Care Workers die of covid19 so far, they are just as desperate as everyone elses right now. Dana tell me about that, jeanette, ive been watching some of these workers and nurses saying why wont people listen to us, why wont they help take care of themselves . It really does feel like a lot of them are on the breaking point and have done really amazing work so far. I can understand, we are humans and suffering from pandemic fatigue. Some people are in denial, some people think it wont happen to me but i can tell you firsthand anyone can be affected from this virus. Please, hang in there a few months longer, we are going to have a vaccine on the market. This is temporary, we wont have to wear masks the rest of our lives but you arent only going to be protecting yourself, youre going to be protecting others and you yourself, one person can make a difference in saving the life and not being a superspreader. One person can spread the virus to ten different people, those ten people can spread it to other people. Its incumbent upon patients, upon the community to really be vigilant, stay strong, we will get through this, its just a matter of time. Weve come so far already, you just need to be careful. Dana let me give a last word to you, dr. Kathuria, i know you are concerned that people are getting tired. There certainly pandemic fatigue, we are also battling misinformation spreading and we also encourage people that this is temporary, we are heading into the Holiday Season right now, thanksgiving is coming very quickly and christmas and new years. These are times that are typically family gettogethers and we understand that but please put the lives of your elderly, your parents, your grandparents first and you have to have that sense of moral and social responsibility right now. It will get through this together if we just come together as a country. I have faith we can do that. Dana and have faith hopefully that the vaccines will work. Dr. Kathuria, dr.

Dana President Trump is facing more criticism as his team of attorneys prepares for more legal action this week over the election and chief White House Correspondent john roberts is live on the north lawn. Well spend the whole day together, john, you and me. There is no one i can rather think of spending more time with and enjoying it, its good to see you this afternoon. The president yesterday igniting a flurry of speculation and commentary after tweeting early in the morning about joe biden when he said he won because the election was rigged. The president spent most of the rest of the day just abusing the nation of any idea that joe biden actually had won. He only won in the eyes of the fake news media, i can see nothing, we have a long way to go, this was a rigged election. The president tweeting this morning i won the election. The Campaign Continues to try to challenge the vote count, the president is under increasing pressure from members of his own party to allow joe biden at least a provisional transition for the sake of National Security and continuity of government. But Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson going even farther than that, listen to what he said yesterday. I expect joe biden to be the next president of the united states, it was good to see President Trump tweet out that he won, i think thats the start of an acknowledgment. And its very important that joe biden have access to the Intelligence Briefings to make sure that he is prepared during times of transition. Just to put a button on that, Asa Hutchinson saying that the president weeded out that joe biden won but again, the president spent most of yesterday saying no he didnt. Barack obama adding his voice to the chorus last night, listen. A president is a public servant, they are temporary occupants of the office by design. And when your time is up, then it is your job to put the Country First and think beyond your own ego and your own interests and disappointments. Speak with the National Security advisor Robert Obrien saying today that if it is joe biden ws going to become the president , then the National Security council will participate in a professional transition of power. Obrien did add the caveat that people here at the white house right now would rather it be another four years of President Trump. It looks like we still got a few weeks ago, the Trump Campaign i was talking with him this morning, they sort of see the deadline here as being december 14 when the electors vote on who the next president will be. We could be in for another four weeks of this. And i assume that youll be here too. Dana we will keep doing this. Thanks, john. Election workers in georgia have until wednesday at midnight to finish a hand recount of the president ial race they are. Former Vice President joe biden leads President Trump in the state by about 14,000 votes, according to the fox news decision desk. That slim margin is leading to a hand recount. Georges secretary of state Brad Raffensperger joins me now. Thank you so much for joining me. Where does the recount stand right now . All going as planned, many of the counties here are counted and every will hit the deadline. Dana we know hes not happy with a lot of things, one of the things he tweeted this morning is the fake recount going on in georgia Means Nothing because they are not allowing signatures to be looked at and verified. Breaks the unconstitutional consent. Your response to that . We have signature matchups, twice signatures are asked when you ask for your ballot and the application process, we signature match that and we also send your ballot in an signature match that. This past year, the Election Officials were given the signature match training process and so they are trained at looking at signatures. Dana he is also complained about monitoring, tell me what you did. For the recount, its really an audit. Its a retelling of all the votes by hand. We have both parties there, republicans, democrats, and independence are available to watch the process to make sure its all transparent. Wed think thats really important, we understand that this race has national significance. Dana its not just that race, then of course you have to Senate Runoffs taking place on january 5. Thereve been some moves by democrats that you just may be people should just move to georgia to try to affect the outcome of that election. What are the verifications you have in place to make sure that if somebody has registered to vote since the general election, that that is valid and accurate and allowed . Registration part of the process requires by state law that you intend to be here and not leaving after the election. You have every intention to stay here permanently. Well be looking at everything a person that registers, and making sure that is their intent. Well be working in concert with our attorney general. Dana do think georgia should consider the law that allows people to move in and establish an ability to vote quickly . Where we are right now is where we have an existing law, we can look at all that in january. Right now we are just putting up the notice we will Work Together in tandem to make sure no one thinks they can come in here and game the system. Dana has it been important to you to defend yourself against these attacks . Its not so much me, its the process. At the end of the day, integrity still matters. We have taken a law, it was a shoddy bill and first thing i did was make sure that we for the first time ever, this year weve added our electronic portal that has photo i. D. To make sure we really know who are requesting the ballots. We continue to strengthen within the parameters of the lot the next session, well come back with a very robust election reform bill. Dana secretary of state of georgia, Brad Raffensperger. We really appreciate you coming on the show. Thanks, dana.

Jacqui heinrichs live in wilmington, delaware. Hi, jackie. Spooked by thin ranks and leery of triggering a special election, nancy pelosi is reportedly urging members not to take jobs in the Incoming Administration<\/a> according to a New York Post<\/a> article which also says hello sees Office Denies<\/a> it. The Transition Team<\/a> is reportedly looking at 20 house dems known for working across the aisle. I do know there are many people who are lobbying, my name was mentioned even before the election. Ive been very, very loyal to the ticket and i will remain loyal to the ticket. And congressman and 11 is being pushed for labor secretary by the United Auto Workers<\/a> union whose president is 1 of 9 labor leaders meeting with president elect biden right now about the economic recovery. Progressives one senator Bernie Sanders<\/a> on labor, and this weekend he was asked if he had any conversations about a cabinet post. His answer suggested yes. I talked to the biden administration, i want to do my best in whatever capacity in the senate or a administration to protect the working families of this country. Democrats tell me the looming georgia runoffs is throwing a wrench into a lot of these selections, they are already down Kamala Harris<\/a> in the sena senate. Dana many are blaming democrats for their losses on election day. But they dont seem to have learned their lesson, senator Bernie Sanders<\/a> also says most americans actually back the progressive agenda. Watch. When you talk about raising the minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour, when youre talking about expanding health care to all people as a human right, when you talk about effectively taking on climate change, when you talk about making public colleges and universities tuition free, these are not far left ideas these are common sense ideas that the majority of the American People<\/a> support and we will fight to make sure there and lamented. Joining me now really hurts fox news contributor. Great to have you, Bernie Sanders<\/a> got a lot of attention but so many who didnt get as much as congressman vincente gonzales, the average white person may associate socialism with nordic countries but to asian and hispanic migrants it recalls leftwing regimes. Theres a fight going on and charlie, i have to imagine you are enjoying this immensely. Indeed. And you know, the problem with what Bernie Sanders<\/a> says there is its a complete lie. There is no such thing as Free College Tuition<\/a> for people. Its a bumper sticker, it sounds like a good idea, id like free everything. I want free ice cream, i want free college, i certainly want free tuition for all of my children. The problem is there is no such thing as free tuition. Somebody has to pay for it. Although the idea of taking all of Americas College<\/a> professors and making them work for free or maybe work for bowls of soup, i think that would be a fun thing to try. But its not going to happen. And the idea that he was to protect working families by forcing working families to pay exorbitant tuition fees for other peoples families children to go to school, its nuts. Its a complete lie. Dana i knew that you were sitting there this weekend reading all this stuff circling it, highlighting it, laughing up a storm. Let me ask you, the usa today headline caught my eye. Democratic party is waging a war over its future as joe biden takes the helm. Can the biden Team Stay Focused<\/a> when the party is pulling itself in Different Directions<\/a> . Glad to be on again and im glad that charlie enjoyed that answer. The more that democrats get distracted by i dont think joe biden is and his team is not the more they get distracted by the two critical things the country wants. Figure out how were going to take this incredible burst of ingenuity, scientific breakthrough it seems like we had and i believe we have a path to a vaccine and therapeutics. How do we distribute that widely and fairly, and how do we focus on reviving main street . The economic fortunes of everyday middleclass americans and every day business owners. If the focus remains there, im not as concerned about some of the things senator sanders is saying, but jockeying for cabinet positions, this happens every four years whenever you have a new administration or reelected administration particularly a new one. Theres a focus on trying to figure out who gets appointed. The more joe biden focuses on how joe biden won, saying focus on how we resolve the issue around this virus and the more he focuses on how we revive and create a renaissance for Everyday Americans<\/a> thats where his success will come from. And if he is successful there, the country will be successful. Dana charlie, a lot of the progressives didnt help joe biden become the nominee, but they did help him to get to this point where he is president elect. So this is somewhat kind of natural i think, as everybody starts to settle in. And of course, harold, you are part of the same wing of the Democrat Party<\/a> which is the wing that we should have in america. The problem is, the party has been very much taken over by this other socialist wing that is really truly terrifying and not a healthy thing for the country. But absolutely, i dont think that those the biggest factor for why those progressives so they call themselves got on board for biden is their hatred of donald trump. And the interesting thing Going Forward<\/a> is eventually, donald trump isnt going to be part of the political scheme. Are they going to stick with democrats at that point . Dana one last word to you, harold. Again, stay focused on the basics. The tackling come of the passing the ball, the rebounding, if joe biden does that the country is going to be a better place in six months or a year, joe biden and Kamala Harris<\/a> will be better off politically. Dana nobody appreciates exports mina for more than i do, thank you so much to you both. Democratic leaders being accused of hypocrisy when it comes to covert restrictions.

Mike, is this lighting a fire under anybody in washington . Not that weve seen so far. The Senate Democratic<\/a> leader is blaming the majority leader on funding. We need a large, strong covid bill to deal with our problems. We have heard for months every time we get close to a deal, senator mcconnell says no. He has become the doctor know of covid just like he has been the doctor know of all the bills in the senate over the last several years. Mitch mcconnell says Top Democrats<\/a> need to get serious, i do think there needs to be another package, hopefully we can get pass to the impasse weve had and get serious about doing something that is appropriate. Government should be working and thats a real challenge, nancy pelosi has been holding up any covid relief bills. We need that assistance, weve got money sitting out for small business, for states and others. Thats why republicans have put forth many ideas and want to make sure we passed a covid relief bill. President elect joe bidens chief of staff said hes with the speaker. What Speaker Pelosi<\/a> has done a magnificent job of handling this, what i want her to do is we have her back and handling ts but we have the backs of the American People<\/a>. With key players in their respective corners its not clear if theyll get anything done during this lame duck congress. Dana im worried for the people. Thank you, mike. Do as i say, not as i do. Democratic leaders getting slammed for not following their own coronavirus restrictions. A Speaker Nancy Pelosi<\/a> canceled a dinner for new house members after facing backlash. Gavin newsom forced to apologize after going to a dinner party with a dozen people and chicago mayor taking heat for celebrating with bidenharris supporters after the election. Lets bring in trey gowdy, most of the trey gowdy process. I want to have some headlines here, the fact that the governor of california violated his own rules my d. C. Mayor again also, chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot<\/a>. You can almost feel the frustration from regular americans time to do their best and knowing these people that are suggesting important and Good Public Health<\/a> measures arent following them on their own. Dana, people hate two things in the world quite like they do hypocrisy and duplicity. When republicans meet it is reckless homicide, when democrats meet its all about healing and hope. When you watch looters steal christmas presents you are told you cant Exchange Christmas<\/a> presents with your own family you can celebrate joe biden winning but god knows you can celebrate thanksgiving with your family, i would just tell my fellow citizens look, ignore the leaders. There is a vaccine on the horizon. Do what you can to help your fellow citizens. Not because the mayor of chicago told you to or gavin newsom, do what you can to help your fellow citizens because i think the light is coming. Dana i think thats a really good point, you learn as a dad, you have to lead by example. Look, lots of things, it infuriates me when i see the duplicity of this Group Gathering<\/a> and theres no criticism but this Group Gathers<\/a> and there is. It infuriates me. And then when i hear the mayor of chicago lecturing anybody about anything, but im not wearing a mask and im not doing things to help Lori Lightfoot<\/a> or gavin newsom, im doing it to help someone in South Carolina<\/a> that i might bump into. And with this good news, dana, that a vaccine is on the horizon we have just got to take care of each other for maybe another six months and then we dont have to care about gavin newsom or Lori Lightfoot<\/a> or Gretchen Whitmore<\/a> or anybody else thinks. Dana are you looking forward to figuring out a way to have your holiday . Well, my mom carries much more influence with me than anyone else in the world and im not afraid of the governor in South Carolina<\/a>, im afraid of my mom and shes telling me where im going to be thursday and i will be there and tell cowboys kick off.

Senator tom cotton takes us through the breaking news. Eric erickson on the state of play in georgia and we take on the d. C. Mass from this weekend. See you in a few minutes, 15 minutes away on bill hemmer reports. Dana at least 20 people were arrested after violence broke out in washington following the million mag on march on saturday. Trump supporters clashed with counter protests in d. C. Stree streets. Good afternoon, dana, thats how the evening ended but thats a start, the main event was largely peaceful. Tens of thousands of Trump Supporters<\/a> gathering on Freedom Plaza<\/a> around the corner from the white house must so close in fact the president decided to swing by to start the day. Around the plaza he drove the motorcade on his way to golf in virginia. There were speeches, chanting, dancing, supporters telling us they had come from florida, georgia, texas, pennsylvania, all across the country. The crowd marched on the plaza, about a mile and a half down pennsylvania avenue to the supreme court. As that march finished, people fanned out into downtown d. C. And thats where fighting started. Antitrump groups and protrump groups like the proud boys were shouting at each other and in many cases verbal turned physical. A man through fireworks into a group of supporters sitting outdoors at a restaurant. Police also say one person was stabbed and warmed it could have been much worse. The size of the crowd is really not the issue, its how the folks in the crowd behave. So i think over the course of the weekend particularly on saturday, i was very impressed with the way that the metropolitan Police Department<\/a> was able to prevent more conflict than we did have. As for the march itself in downtown washington, there were a few counter protesters who stopped by that main event to walk down pennsylvania avenue. Many had signs that said trump lost or bidenharris, while the conversations between protrump and antitrump crowd were certainly intense nothing ever got physical. Dana pittard dana thank you. For more on this, lets bring in a host of media buzz howie kur kurtz. I cant stop thinking about what it wouldve been like to have firecrackers all of a sudden go off in the middle of your dinner. I wouldve been absolutely terrified. Of course then theres violence, back and forth, but in that moment that really stuck out to me and i wonder about your thoughts as the media covered or did not cover it. Howie who wouldnt be terrified . The media hasnt exactly ignored the violence and harassment at the rally in washington but they have downplayed it in ways that would be impossible to imagine it was mainly Trump Supporters<\/a> beating up liberal protesters. The event itself didnt get that much attention, thousands of people showed up, far more than expected. The president said it was tens of thousands but Kayleigh Mcenany<\/a> said it was 1 million, that claim was so far off the charts that that attention than the violence paid dana where do you think things go from here . We saw this build over the summer, we know that tensions are running high right now. And you had all of these reporters that fanned out across america to try to understand trump voters in 2016. What happened to all of that . I hope it doesnt go anywhere, because this could have been much worse as the police said. We also have videos of people who appeared to be affiliated with antifa or black lives matter roughing up, shoving, snatching signs from supporters who were just trying to have a peaceful demonstration. Now the Washington Post<\/a> does report that when they had that nighttime clash between the group of proud boys and antitrump protesters that there were provocations and assaults on both sides. Thats part of the story as well. But ive got to say, this is not a oneoff event here in the nations capital. There was an incident after a trump event where senator rand paul and his wife were harassed and chased by a group of liberal supporters. Not only to the authorities need to do a better job of knowing that this can be a tinderbox when you have people on different sides in this atmosphere but the media needs to do a better job of telling the story and not downplaying it just because it doesnt fit their preferred narrative. Dana its interesting, tomorrow social media tech heads are going to be back on capitol hill, they get a range of questions and the accusation and bias against conservatives usually comes up. Theres the Media Coverage<\/a> of course but you also have social media that feeds into this. I think thats a really big part of it. Howie the challenge for these giant Tech Companies<\/a> which i think have had a terrible 20 20 and onesided nature particularly of twitter of either blocking or censoring or putting warning flags on trump tweets and Trump Campaign<\/a> tweets. I think its going to hurt their credibility for a long time. But theres also the question of whether or not people use social media to incite violence, stir up hate, thats a fine line you want to respect peoples First Amendment<\/a> rights but you dont want to have your companies hijacked to contribute to the kind of violence we saw here in washington this weekend and other cities during the year. Dana it really hurts to see americans fighting in the streets like that. And q, how we. Republicans women winning a number of republican races and many of them flipping their races from blue to red.

Women will serve in Congress Next<\/a> year and thats because of several Incoming Freshman<\/a>s looking from blue to red. This is the year of the republican women because more than 50 of this Incoming Freshman<\/a> class made up of women or minority. We will have more women in the Republican Congress<\/a> and then in the history of congress before and its just only the beginning. We are just getting started. Dana we are now joined by one of those women, congressman elect from california. What made the difference in this race that you just one . I think what we saw was people tired of dysfunction. And so i campaigned on the message that i will go to washington, d. C. , to help break that partisan gridlock and bring some common sense and responsive leadership and work in an independent bipartisan way to represent their interests and their concerns. I think that resonated with the people in the 39th Congressional District<\/a> and im very pleased to be the 18th female member to add to the number of growing republican women serving in the 117th congress. It looks to be about three dozen of the us. Dana i know Kevin Mccarthy<\/a> is very proud of the fact that you all have one. I know he tried to focus on diversity for this class and no doubt he would call upon you to help you find others. I always wondered, what was it that made you decide to run . Because if they were to ever come to me i would say absolutely no way. I dont want to go through that but you were willing to do that. What was the thing that made you want to run for congress . First of all its a promise of america that is well, live and its real. As an immigrant, for me to have a quality education and start up a business and raise a family, serve the community the way i did in the state assembly and now having the opportunity to continue to serve my community as a member of the u. S. House of representatives, it really clearly sent the message that the American Dream<\/a> is very much alive. I continue to fight to ensure that same opportunity that was afforded to me is available for all americans, especially to the next generation. And im not a quitter. Dana thats obviously true. Within the Democratic Party<\/a> there is this argument and the Progressive Left<\/a> is saying we didnt cause any problems for the democrats that were running but if you look at the results of republicans did so well compared to the democrats. Do you think that phrases or policies like defund the police or things like that, medicare for all and that helps you win this time around . I truly believe so especially as we dealt with the aftermath of George Floyd Killing<\/a> and the demonstration that we saw, the civil unrest. People are looking for the leadership that can bring law and order and so our republican partys message of better. So i believe that had a lot to do with getting a lot of the republicans elected in this election cycle, especially getting elected female, republican women into the office. Id like to bring this diversity which is also inclusion, and i would like to help to change the narrative. Dana how happy and proud was your family when this race got called . Very excited. Remember, i was on pins and needles for ten days after this election, until ap called it and i still had to wait about 30 minutes after to get a phone call from my opponent congratulating me. We offered to have a trant transition in my First Priority<\/a> i told him was to ensure that the constituents needs were met especially with casework. Many of them are still struggling so i wanted to make sure that we agreed to the transition. A dana it will be wonderful to see all you do. I will see you on the five. Bill hemmer .
