President Biden spoke today with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu.

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to pass 100 executive orders with a focus on the border once he's inaugurated in eight days.

Fox's Madeline Rivera with that report. Gas prices remained stagnant over the last three weeks. Oil industry analyst Trilby Lundberg, publisher of the Lundberg Survey, says the national average for a gallon of unleaded regular rolls a penny to $3.14 a gallon. Lundberg tells us who's paying the most and the least. The low end in our January 10 survey, Houston is $2.53, and the high average is Honolulu at $4.50.
Denver, $2.78. Philadelphia, $3.17. Los Angeles is $4.35.
