Summary

It took seven months of back and forth between the two parties, but Congress finally approved more financial aid for Americans during the coronavirus crisis. The stimulus package will cost $900 billion and includes direct payments to most people. Plus, it will also extend unemployment benefits and offers more PPP loans to help small businesses. Chief economist of Moody Analytics, Mark Zandi discusses the covid relief bill, what Congress got right and wrong and how it will impact the economy. 2020 has been a big year for fraud as the Federal Trade Commission is reporting record losses to social media scams. Plus, the holidays are always prime time for scam artists trying to rip us off, especially now during the coronavirus pandemic with more people than ever doing their Christmas shopping online. Fox News Headlines 24/7 anchor Brett Larson tells us what we should watch out for when it comes to email and social media scams this holiday season. Plus, commentary by FOX News Political Analyst and Co-host of "The Five," Juan Williams. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
