>> leslie: so much here. first of all it's great that we are getting the first batch out there to health care workers and those who are in long-term residential facilities, nursing homes, that is recommended by the cdc. here are a couple problems i have with us. one is, what do we do going forward when pfizer's additional dosing was turned away, they are going to go to the international community. we become behind the international community in line, that doesn't put americans first. secondly, we look at the number of doses coming out, one of the concerns i have quite frankly is that all of these are being put out in places like cbs, for example, no offense to cvs but i would like to see more vaccines available to doctors during this pandemic where those are a couple things i see is problematic going forward. >> harris: al all right, mollie >> mollie: this is absolutely incredible that we've been able to develop this vaccine so quickly. that is gone very well, throwing money at pharmaceutical companies and ha

she is your supervisor, isn't she, leslie? >> leslie: i'm sorry. they can't operate on people because there are no beds. the hospitals and health care workers are overburdened. hiding from the nazies, we get our reality check. stop being hypocritical, stop saying do as i say, not as i do. a lot of people went out tuesday night because wednesday night was when they enforce in california. if this makes us safe until we get a vaccine, let's do it for that health care workers who are exhausted, working night and day, as more and more people are coming in, as we are surging here in california and other states across the country. >> kennedy: well, restaurants have made it safe to dine outside, but now they can't do that. gillian. >> gillian: i would just point out that in addition to the hypocrisy, the hypocrisy illustrates for americans exactly why a lot of these policies don't work and aren't effective. it is precisely because people cannot follow them. you cannot have restaurants open with outdoor dining and then tell people they cannot go there to ea

howie: we don't need the courts, leslie. leslie: to will's point, oh, there is -- let the evidence play out. how many recounts does the state have to do? how many state attorney generals or governors or even republicans, you know, have to say, okay, i've certified the election and my count is 41 out of 42 that have been put forth. there's a point where you say, okay, the results are accurate. you may not trust the media but now you're not going to trust the courts, you are not going to trust every single person in the electoral process and every single state whether it's blue like california or red like georgia, there's a point where at the end of the day where you have to say, okay, i have lost the -- this. it's time to move on and let the country move forward because we are in a pandemic and constantly dragging the american people into this political fantasy at this point, if you will, is unhealthy on so many levels for this nation. howie: well, i think a lot of trump supporters do trust kellyanne conway, the long-time whi

leslie? >> leslie: well, defund the police is police reform. the problem is the wording is really bad for my party. i would agree with the president-elect on that. vice president-elect kamala harris said bad cops make good cops look bad. >> julie: you're right. >> leslie: according to the department of justice, let president-elect biden is doing, first of all, it is the justice department's responsibility. here's what it is. one of the responsibilities of the department of justice is to review conduct of local law enforcement directed by the violent crime control and law enforcement act of 1994. so all that he is doing, all that barack obama did, is basically saying to the department of justice, "do your job." if you notice, it's not saying systemic racism, it's regarding systemic misconduct. that's not only the department of justice's responsibility to oversee that and to ensure that, i think when you are preaching this message of unity, going forward it is something you need to do. they have been problems within police departments that make i

leslie: well, it is significant. at the end of the day, president trump has shown time and time again that when that loyalty is gone -- and remember, attorney general barr was as loyal as they came in the inner circle -- when that loyalty is gone, what is at stake for the country simply is no longer the primary consideration, but having that seat vacant is not a good thing. we saw that in the defense department as well. the transition process continues to be fraught, but the big story is, as tom said earlier, the pandemic over everything else. the big news is a vaccination, but there is a lot of work to be done. tom: good morning from new york. i've got eight ways to go, but the time that we've got -- i want to harken back to the warfare. i read from allan nevins years ago on the 1880's and 1890's. we seem to be back there with the polarization of congress, where it is truly embedded. administration's have a honeymoon, or is it gone in this day and age? leslie: i think there is no honeymoon, and not only because of t

biggest ipo raise of the year, if you don't include the green shoes, leslie, as mentioned. north of 70 billion. this will be the biggest one of the year snowflake was $42 billion. my recollection with snowflake was a $42 billion market cap when it came public so if you would have said in april that this would have been the biggest year in to 14 for ipos, remember, 2014 was a big one, ali baba i would have laughed at you, but the huge stimulus that we've, the rather notable holdup -- move up in the stock market combined with the fact that we've got a known name here in doordash and we have very large retail presence, larger than we had a year ago, has really combined. nothing beats an up market, so let me tell you, that's the most important thing going on here. >> yeah. >> you've really got a remarkable confluence of events, guys, that really push that thing to the stratosphere. >> bob, i want to circle back, two separate things at play. the first day pops for the ipos and then what happens when it gets in everybody else's hands interestingly enough that's been a pretty good

leslie, we look at the markets and the futures. it's not as if investors are taking this action by president trump as if it's going to derail the entire process it certainly looks like people are expecting one way or another this is going to get done, but the potential damage in the meantime and it's really unclear what the end game is going to be democrats jumped on this and said $2,000 sounds great to us let's just go ahead and get that done you're seeing some consternation out of georgia the senate candidates there on the republican side who are saying, well, wait a minute. maybe we can get to 2,000 if we can take some money away from somewhere else just a lot of motion around this investors though don't seem to be worried. >> i think one -- >> there's a -- i was going to say, leslie, there's a school of thought that this may be just delays the signing of some kind of funding for a few days. maybe you have to wait until the president's term ends in 27 days it's remarkable to see not only the showdowns here, but meanwhile brexit

leslie, why the appeal this year in particular? >> and what's remarkable about those statistics which include both operating companies and spacs, i should add, is the fact that there was basically no activity in the first half of the year the activity really started ramping up in earnest in june, and so when you think about it, we're real looking at basically a half a year amount of activity that has surpassed so many decades worth of activity that we've seen in years by any other measure. in '14 we are alibaba's ipo and large ipos in between then and still in this year, in this pandemic year, we have $170 billion worth. a huge driver is the fact that we've seen such a remarkable surge in spacs this year half of that have 170 billion encompasses blank check vehicles that were raised to fund acquisitions in the future and the rest of it is operating companies like snowflake, doordash, airbnb, three of the biggest once that we've seen this year. what's driven that surge was your question, and it's this idea that we've seen just a hug

leslie >> hey, melissa. in an unprecedented second stress test this year the fed said it will allow banks buying back stocks with limitations after they were prevented from doing so earlier this year jpmorgan has already said its board has authorized a $30 billion buyback program to begin in the first quarter of next year, and that stock popping on the news share repurchases made up about 70% of the industry's capital payout to shareholders pre-covid, but the largest u.s. banks voluntarily suspended buybacks in march as the pandemic-induced shutdowns that roiled the economy and the financial markets. the fed then said in june that all banks subjected to its stress tests were required to halt their buyback programs and cap their dividend payouts now, today the fed said that banks could restart share repurchases expanding similar limitations already in place with dividends these amounts are based on a formula that's essentially tied to the last year of the bank's income now these rules will be in place through

i respect leslie stahl greatly as a journalist. in her defense at the time known of us knew that the attorney general office or the f.b.i. investigating joe biden. even before a.g. barr was a.g. barr. this is not about biden. republican committee in december said they found zero evidence to die biden to any of this, that there wasn't any evidence of wrongdoing by the president elect. the scandal surrounds hunter biden and it could be a distraction. speaking of the distraction. in the media's defense when the story about the "new york post" came out and they should have reported on it and everyone more so there were bigger news items. one is the election. of course, the pandemic. the surge many areas started to have after we thought maybe we turned the corner with regard to covid. >> harris: you know, i hear you say that. i saw the competing way that the democrats handled the impeachment. again, we had pandemic coming. so i don't know where you are going but go ahead. >> this is about joe biden. to say he had no involvement, sorry,

our second topic is leslie jones, national treasure. working at 30 rock leslie jones was that rare cast member on "saturday night live" in that you could tell when she was in the building. these days she's the host of "super market sweep." and during the pandemic she's doing what we're all doing, she's staying home and watching tv. as far as we can tell she watches a whole lot of this network, and we're happy about that. her approach is both low tech and high volume. she shoots video of the video on her tv and supplies commentary, not all of it family friendly, but at least it lets you know you're alive. and it makes you question why'd uever want to hang out with boring people. she loves a good home camera backdrop. she gives nicknames to her on-air favorites. here's a sampling of her work during nicolle wallace's broadcast just today. >> your loss. >> go back to mar-a-lago. we'll come help you pack. >> come help you pack. yep. ooh, nicky, you look so cute today. petulant. petulant. that's right! tell them, coach! recuse yourself. >> ge

let's get out to leslie with more details on door dash. just how big could this ipo get, leslie >> it could be one of the biggest ipo's this year. currently snowflake is the largest. but this one is looking at $1.3 billion. i am told that the call started about 15 minutes that's where they hunker down and decide the price there is a little less art and more science involved in these discussions. they use an auction-like platform that is supposed to give them a more data driven sense of demanding as opposed to the traditional way which is more hands on between the bankers and sales investors. it is thinking it my bring a fuld diluted value of 36 billion. but investors may be willing to play a premium since door dash has been able to quadruple, al they they had losses in the third quarter. >> leslie, we will come back to you for those details. panel, let's trade it. you can't trade it yet, but you can feel what is happening with the ipo market the renaissance ipoetf is up 115% on today's basis. that kind of tells you guy, does this tell you

leslie: i suspect not. we will have to wait and see, but i think he will be having an interesting few hours trying to figure out how -- he does not strike me as the redesigning type. one never knows -- resigning type. one never knows. tom: if you are just joining us, the president with a bombshell last night in the 8:00 hour, a four-minute video simply saying the stimulus bill is unacceptable, a great assumption it will move markets. do we see that now? lisa: our kids are going up. -- markets are going up. tom: exactly. is agreed-upong now, you will get a democrat winning the georgia elections and a bigger bill that year. what is the damage done in between if there is not an earlier stopgap measure? gazillion, you add on 370 so i will call that 1.2 trillion plus. the president assumes we will cut programs, lisa. the first one he mentioned was aid to cambodia. he looked at all the pork in the bill and he wants to bring 1.2 trillion down. the: he was not part of negotiations at all. this came as a surprise to

leslie picker has the latest on the ipo process. >> it's important to underscore the rarety of this level of issuance in a single week. excluding spacs, we're expecting to see more than $7 billion worth of ipos this week. since the start of 2014, only three other weeks have surpassed that kind of volume. most recently, in mid september there was, if you remember, there was a big week of software debuts unity, jay frog went public. the only week that's saw greater issuance was in may of 2019 when uber went public and then september 2014 when alibaba went public what is different this time, though, is that the billions of dollars in new stock is coming weeks before the end of the year they lock in for insentive free purposes that is imperative for them to reach the benchmark. if the benchmark is nasdaq, they're looking at gains of 40% to beat for the year and that could drive up demand ipos can be a source of alpha with that day one pop that is so common considering both airbnb and door dash up the price ranges, it appears in talking to sources, it sounds like they're receiving greater than

. >> we have we will continue to in 2021 as well i know leslie will cover it closely. to your point, it's interesting. for quite some time i wouldn't say we were complaining but there were a number of investors said the companies that did go public did not do so during their great growth period because of the ability to raise so much capital in the private markets and so a lot of that key growth phase was actually left to private investors with the advent of capital available, we are seeing more companies that are in their development stage. not anywhere near profitability coming back to the public markets for good or bad. obviously they are more speculative in nature. higher risk given some may never see profitability. at the same time there is prospect for growth if, in fact, if they do succeed >> some of them are pre-revenue. when you compare last year we saw a lot of down rounds in the ipos meaning these companies were valued at higher levels in private markets than public markets. that caused a lot of ceos to start thinking how can i take advantage of going public
