coverage all day long but we are not yet, you know why? because "the five" starts in ten seconds. thanks for joining us. ♪ ♪ >> juan: joe biden officially sworn in as our 46 president today. and it's in the oval office for the first time. biden stressing unity in his inauguration speech. promising to be a president for all americans. >> president biden: few people
2:01 pm
in our nation's history have been more challenged or found at time more challenging and difficult than the time we are in now. white supremacy, domestic terrorism, that we must confront and we will defeat. [applause] to overcome these challenges, to restore the soul and secure the future of america, requires so much more than words. it requires the most elusive of all things in a democracy, unity. i promise you, i will play as hard for those who did not support me as for those who did. we must end this uncivil war pits red against blue. rural versus urban. conservative versus liberal.
2:02 pm
politics doesn't have to be a raging fire, destroying everything in its path and we must reject the culture to which facts themselves are manipulated and even manufactured. our fellow americans, we have to be better than this. >> juan: it joe biden at the capitol today as he was he was inaugurated the 46th president of the united states. dana perino, i thought the most memorable line of the speech was when he said we need to end of this uncivil war, red versus blue and conservative versus liberal. he asked voters to give him a chance, especially those who did not vote for him. was the outreach effective? >> dana: while i think it remains to be seen. but i think the speech was fairly well received across the board.
2:03 pm
even as the nomination speech, it's what you do going forward, just a little bit here, signing some executive orders. there's a lot of them, 17 of them. some are quite benign and others are quite serious and i think the white house at 7:00 p.m. when they have the first press briefing we really need to explain why we are stopping construction on the border wall? why do we want to stop the xl pipeline? why do we think it's good to return to the paris climate accord, and other things like that. they have their work cut out for them but they had a pretty good day, i thought they organize it very well. a very strange day with a pandemic. i will turn it over to my colleagues who haven't had a chance to talk at today. >> juan: jesse, what about you? i'm interested to hear your response. chris wallace has heard a number of inauguration speeches and said it was the best he had ever heard of. it was upbeat, quite a contrast
2:04 pm
to president trump let's come together and let's heal. >> jesse: chris has heard a few more of these than i have, juan but i will disagree. personally i didn't think it was the best inaugural address i'd ever heard, i thought it was okay. what struck me was how he overreached saying this country was split down the middle on race and it like lincoln his whole soul is dedicated to uniting the country, healing this divide and funding this uncivil war. race wasn't even the issue in the election.
2:05 pm
i don't feel it jives with his community message and i think you will use the race card to divide and conquer. but as i said i will be fair to joe, i don't care what he says, i care what he does. so it would mean a lot if he did perhaps tell antifa to knock it off, and tell the fbi to stop locking up their political opponents. you know, tell the people that support him to stop canceling other people. that right there would do a lot for unity. in terms of the rest of this ceremony, and garth brooks pretty much crushed it and then you had amanda gorman, this young poet who read "the hill we klein." i almost shed a tear until i realized i'm a man and are not allowed to show any emotion. but that was very good. [laughter] >> juan: jesse, we know each
2:06 pm
other, you can shed a tear my man. greg, i have a puzzling one because and i don't have an answer to this question. you know, president trump is going to stay in office, and joe biden won't take office and that's all a fraud. what happens and now that joe biden is in office. >> greg: that's a great question, where did they go? they got promoted in the media. i guess he wanted me to take the bait. but i did watch the inauguration because i couldn't resist, because oddly enough, resistance is no longer acceptable or approved. now that they have one, it's all about unity and they all must join the ranks of rapid but cancerous. i don't know about you, i don't want to go out on a limb but i
2:07 pm
think the media coverage for the day feels slightly friendlier than the 14 years ago. and also i wrote a book on it and i believe there should be a call for unity until you consider the source, a candidate that push smears and other kinds of divisions, toward half a population. they seasoned it and watered it and culminated in a year of violence so the dems are great if they were creating a problem and saying they had a solution. this is called extortion, but a call for unity from joe is like a child calling for glue after smashing a lamp. so we can heal this so-called divide comes this hypothetical divide. we have to look at its roots, where did it come from?
2:08 pm
the fact is a divide and the us versus them has always been there but it was always one way only and it was the media and the elites attacking us. it was no attack response. the media had no qualms demonizing quick clarence thomas. bork, bush. mccain. the nra and pro-lifers. the midwesterners who fly over roofs and cling to their guns and their bibles. the reason there was no polarization narrative is because there was only one poll and then trump got us to come in and confront the end which is why he has been shoved out of the wilderness by those who believe. if the narrative of this national rift comes from the press to shift the blame off of them while preserving their profits which come from people ripping each other apart. americans aren't at each other's
2:09 pm
throats, it's the media industrial complex at america's throat and hence they are embracing out the identity politics which drives a wedge further between america and laying the american in you and the other identities that help to indulge in victimhood. but ironically we have the slickest president trying to be the most what was going to big pun, and i'm enjoying it other than that. although in an amazing inauguration, i agree with chris wallace, the greatest inauguration i've ever seen in my entire life, and alex go further than chris wallace. it's the greatest inauguration i will ever see, ever see. i think we should just stop the inaugurations. this is it. i'm going to cry again. >> juan: while there you go. kt, joe biden during his speech reminded us that 100 years ago here in washington they were trying to stop women from marching for the were right to
2:10 pm
vote and today we saw a woman become the vice president. also, the woman of color. what was it you are feeling about this? what did you think? >> katie: while i am happy for vice president harris and that she has ascended to this position but i also believe that all women who ascend to these positions should be celebrated. you had at supreme court justice amy coney barrett there today and her promotion to the supreme court was treated very differently then when we see a number of liberal women who reach these new heights and break these glass ceilings. i'm glad women feel like she can be a role model for them but i base my role models on experience and their credibility, sincerely based on the fact that there are just women. i do want to say something really quickly about joe biden and his calls for unity. we've been talking a lot about republicans and whether joe biden can unite with the republican party and whether republicans are willing to just
2:11 pm
agree with everybody and go along just for the sake of unity but i think you will get a lot of pushback from his left flank on this unity call. a lot of people on the far left to working with republicans. anyone who voted for trump might need to be deprogrammed or reprogrammed, shut out of the debate and may not have to compromise this by the senate close. there are two parties in the machine on a number of different issues. people are pushing him from his left on these issues trying to come from the ground. >> juan: president job biden readies a flurry of executive orders trying to undo a number of trump's key policies. that's next for you on speaker six. ♪ ♪

2:17 pm
[speaking in foreign language]. president biden is sending a set of executive orders and we will have video coming up and for that very soon. biden will use his pen to do things like this. terminate funding for the border wall construction, rejoin the paris climate accord and the travel ban that come up like the keystone pipeline and reengage with the world health organization. so as soon as we get that we will bring it to you. the other thing, biden's economic policy team signals that it will be the first administration ever to construct economic policy around issues like race, gender equality and climate change rather than traditional indicators like tdp or deficit ratios. i wonder how that will go. >> greg: when you were talking i kind of started thinking about how many inaugurations, i've been on this planet for 19 inaugurations and this is still the best one i've ever seen.
2:18 pm
i think that this is part of -- when we were talking about what's joe biden going to do if he became president, will he be able to face the woke mob? will he be able to actually stay in the center? this is the sign that he won't and that his spine as a weather vane as i like to say. but he reminds me of a furious spouse throwing all of her cheating husband's belongings out the second floor window. you know, there goes the golf clubs onto the front lawn. it's like a spasm that makes you feel good but you are not separating the down go mike from the bad. there are a lot of good things that trump did but because it's trump you have to get rid of it. so i ask you again, how is that for unity? you are doing it to satisfy some emotional need. >> dana: greg, we have the biden video. let's just play that and we will
2:19 pm
come back. >> president biden: the state of the nation today, no time to waste. as we indicated we will sign a number of the executive orders over the next several days to a week and i'm going to start today. the crisis of covid-19 along with the economic crisis, and the climate crisis, the executive actions that we are signing will help change the course of the crisis. but supporting underserved communities and these are just all starting points. we are in the process of the economy, the campaign and the backbone of the country. we are focused on that and i think some of the things we are
2:20 pm
going to be doing will be vital and there's no certainly today. so what i'm going to be doing, certainly, the executive the first one i'm going to be signing here relates to covid-19 and its requiring what i said all along, where i have authority, mandating mass and social distancing on public property and interstate commerce, et cetera. this is the first one i'm going to sign. the second one i'm signing, that's the support for the underserved communities and
2:21 pm
already you -- we want to make sure we have some how -- and the third, i'm going to sign and review what we are all here is the commitment i made that we are going to rejoin the paris claimant >> reporter: [inaudible question] >> president biden: because it is private i will not talk about it until i talked to him. >> the climate change, you are rejoining the paris claimant agreement.
2:22 pm
>> come on guys. press, let's go. thank you. >> dana: you have just seen the first photograph and video of president biden there in the oval office on the resolution doesn't signing a lot of executive orders. but he did just make the news and everyone was wondering if president trump did leave a letter for joe biden and he has done that and president biden is saying that president trump's letter was very generous but he would not reveal the contents because it was a private letter until he had a chance to talk to him. so we will give you a chance to talk about that or the executive orders. there wasn't a lot of flair in that appearance. just say, not a lot of flair. >> jesse: we are in for a rollicking four years and, my goodness, can that man work a room. he seemed tired, i will say
2:23 pm
generously, from the inaugural ceremony this afternoon. i was struck by the fact that he needed to read notecards to say what the executive orders that he would be signing war, considering he ran on these things. one of the executive orders, i had no idea what it was and he said something about returning equity to underserved populations. i don't even know if he knows what that means but i will say to use joe's phrase, god bless him. in terms of the border wall, it wasn't trump's idea to come up with the border wall, they said they wanted a wall here and they wanted it there because it works. so all trump did was deliver that. you take that away it makes the border patrol agents job a lot harder and it makes our country less safe. paris claimant, rejoin it. what do i care? it's unenforceable, if it's toothless. so i will save my outrage for stuff that really matters like the keystone pipeline.
2:24 pm
like why would you drive up gas prices and alienate the canadians just to kiss the of the chinese and the people in opec? i don't honestly think joe biden understands how the world works. he doesn't understand energy markets or geopolitics so that really scares me. on the travel ban, intel officials are already saying to keep it. because number one it's a pandemic and number two, these countries don't even share intel with us. and blood will be on his hands if anything bad happens. lastly, the w.h.o., if you are going to it, make it work for us and not the chinese. look to see if he's taking bribes because that would explain a lot of action from him. >> dana: but jesse, you're still going to give him a chance, right? >> jesse: still giving him a chance, i'm open minded. [laughs]
2:25 pm
>> dana: let's talk about the border wall. i think they are saying there was money appropriated for other purposes and the trump administration figured out a way to use for border wall construction and not the issue that they are stopping now. but i feel like they are not providing any sort of fulsome explanation as to why this make sense? >> katie: i can give you an explanation. the explanation as president trump said he was going to build a wall and he started building 450 miles of wall which were completed and therefore the left had to be against it despite border patrol and customs enforcement saying it was helpful in their efforts to combat drug trafficking, human smuggling and other serious national security issues. my understanding is that the 35e funding for that has already been allocated and stopping it now when we have this huge caravan coming up and this huge
2:26 pm
crisis and people being interviewed saying that we are coming to the united states because joe biden is going to help us, and then you stop building the wall in the middle of the pandemic when nobody else is allowed to come across a border without a negative covid test and international travel will continue to be shut down by the biden administration, it doesn't make much sense at all, dana, when it comes to the purpose of borders and the wall to reinforce it based on the facts on the ground from the agents that are working in very dangerous parts of the country. >> dana: when we see president biden there in the oval office he seems like he's going to govern just like he campaigned, low-key and in his mind, i returned to normal. >> juan: i think even the way he was sitting at the desk with a mask on sent a very powerful message as we stand here in the midst of this virus with 400,000
2:27 pm
plus people dead. that's quite a contrast to what we saw previously. to the point about the executive order, i just want to say that i think one of the weaknesses of trump using so many executive orders is that they can be done away with with the stroke of a pen by the next president if he signs an executive order. he ran on this and these were his promises and his pledges to people who voted for him and he was fulfilling that promise. how can you unify? policy differences in america are not the basis for division and disunity and discord. what's the basis for that is people who believe lies about an election fraud that never occurred and refused to say, you know what? i was wrong and that should have never gone out to the mic and people. people were misled and badly so. that's where this discord comes from.
2:28 pm
>> dana: you just heard a horn, that was not the train, i just want to say. katie pavlov? >> katie: he's also promising his supporters he won't be going anywhere. >> i wish the new administration great luck and great success, i think they will have great success, the things i've done have been just incredible and it couldn't have done it without you. so just a goodbye, we love you and we will be back in some form. so have a good life and we will see you soon. and q1. >> katie: trump is also reportedly talking about forming his own political party called the patriot party. so greg, we don't know what the president has planned but we know that people will continue working for him. so voters are standing by to see. before you know, what a
2:29 pm
contrast, right? what we saw first with president biden is somebody clearly not in charge of his own being. he did not know half of the stuff he was saying, it was sad and frightening and it's scary, and it's also a contrast in the energy. that's what worries me is that he will be rolled. biden will be rolled by the woke mob because you can see he doesn't put up a fight on anything. when jesse was talking about equity, that's a really serious piece of the puzzle. it's not about equality anymore, it's about equity. that shift should scare you. in terms of trump, when you look at what happened in that press conference, the media will not be able to quit trump because he won't have four years of joe doing that. trump however is a buffet of narratives that you can shape anyway you want.
2:30 pm
you can lie about them, you can say he was involved with the russians or he obstructed and colluded like juan always says. he you can do stories on crime or business or his tv future, he is an endless buffet of narratives both true and false. >> katie: so jesse are you joining the patriot party or do you think the patriot party should work within the confines of the republican party, so democrats don't win forever? >> jesse: well i already joined greg's after party so i don't know if i'm allowed to be a member of two parties. i honestly think that the patriot party might have just been a joke that somehow leaked to the press. it's not a serious thing. >> katie: but there is a logo. >> jesse: who made the dash i don't think it was the president that made the logo. i think the president will go back to mar-a-lago and he will unwind, not tweet because he
2:31 pm
can't tweet, he will reflect and think about how he made some deals overseas to rebuild the trump administration and make amends with a memoir and some speaking deals. but you know i wish he had been there at the inauguration today but then i think the media probably would have just fanatically obsessed over him and ruined the coverage. so maybe it was better that he didn't attend. you know we do have some news that i'm going to break there, some of my sources have read the letter that the president left for joe biden and the resolute desk. i will read it here and say, "dear joe, to make you feel at home i drew you a map that showed how to get to the basement. you're welcome. then he continues, i don't have any at advice for you because i went with my instincts here every day. i have great instincts, as you know, and that's why i fired jim comey.
2:32 pm
i just went with it. ps, thanks for building the cages, don't touch the wall, i booby trapped it. love, 45." that's what my sources are telling me is in the letter at the resolute desk. >> katie: while the good news about the white house basement as there a bowling alley there so maybe joe biden can go bowling. [laughs] >> dana: that's true. i don't really know how to follow that. [laughs] >> jesse: i have sources now. that's my new thing, i have anonymous sources in the biden administration. i can play that game, too. [laughs] >> dana: what you know what happens when you split the baby, it doesn't work. but earlier today, you mentioned the tea party and the trump folks populace said, figure out a way to work with the republican party, and can the
2:33 pm
republican party absorb all these different types of ideas into one party and maybe this past year if it's any indication, that doesn't work in terms of the voter turnout. you look at one, georgia. there were so many registered republican voters that did not turn out and i don't know how this can all work, but i do know that if it doesn't work there will not be many elections won statewide or nationwide for a long time. congressional districts, sure. those are gerrymandered in a way that can help republicans win. but when we talk about unity i think the democrats have a problem within their own party with unity, conservatives, libertarians, republicans, whatever this mix is on the republican side, they have an issue, too. >> katie: so juan, i have a question for you. can you not talk about
2:34 pm
president trump? can you quit him as we move into the next administration? >> juan: no problem here katie but when you ask a democrat about the patriot party, bring it on, let's see it. because just like everyone has said that will ensure that republicans don't win an election for a long time to come. it would just be disastrous but trump has divided the republicans. >> katie: while we shall see. coming up, and so the media's love affair with joe biden begins. >> greg: with a must-see monologue coming up next on "the five." ♪ ♪ ♪♪

2:44 pm
nicknames and bullying, i don't like it. but i think that sells for a lot of people. so the campaigning never stops and we don't get to solving problems for the country, we never get to talk about compromise and people who want to compromise are dismissed as a week. they are terrible. the emphasis is always on selling grievance, selling grudges, picking fights. i guess that is what gets a person to come back and listen to the next show but for me that's not what government should be about. it should be in the name of the american people and the best interest of the american people. >> greg: i think brett kavanaugh would agree with you, and jesse, this is why when we look at the stuff you cannot trust this industry, this industry that we are in because he's watching us transform the belief system, or their mentality depending on the party.
2:45 pm
>> jesse: well, juan said yesterday that people's politics shouldn't affect their job performance so when you heard all those hard news reporters saying trump's a white supremacist, that was not affected at all by their personal politics. he has been proven to be a card-carrying white supremacist, that's hard news, right, juan? of course not. that's a fair opinion affecting their job and that's what the problem is. >> greg: last word to you dana. we don't pick sides here but they do, don't they? >> dana: let me just say one thing that the biden team has benefited from. they are extremely tight-lipped. they do not leak, so far. that might change now that they are at the white house but their campaign, now the reporters are extremely frustrated, they have a disciplined approach. if they can bring that to the white house than their dealings with the media will probably be better.

>> joe biden sworn in as the 46th president of the united states today. let's get to our final thoughts, katie. >> i love this country and i look forward to watching and covering the biden administration. >> well, i think that's pretty sweet. jesse, i wanted to tell you after you had your recount of the letter from the former president to the current president, i was recalling that
2:57 pm
ronald reagan left card for george bush, it had a republican elephant with turkeys attached. what he rode was "don't let the turkeys get you down." i thought that was pretty cool. [laughs] >> it's a great tradition that does a lot of fun to report. and get to read, i guess. joe biden is going to talk to trump and to see if he will allow him to release the letter and it's probably written in sharpie. and it does probably all caps. we will all get a great kick out of that. but the media setting themselves up for a spectacular fall here. let me explain why. it is one thing for the mainstream media to get that show up their leg when they are covering someone like a jfk, a bill clinton, or a barack obama. these are young, idealistic, charismatic change agents. joe biden is not that guy. joe biden has no charisma, i mean he's got no energy. he's got nothing.
2:58 pm
so the media can only fake it for so long. how long are they going to be able to pretend that joe biden is the kind of guy that we need to worship and fame and hang up every word? because after looking at that performance in the oval office, they are going to lose even more trust. if they continue to fawn over the sky like he is jesus christ. they are going to get over that pretty quickly. >> juan: gag greg, john roberts didn't have any trouble with joe biden today. as i recall back in -- i guess it was '09, they had to do it again. but not today. everything went smoothly. what did you think? >> greg: i agree. it was the greatest inauguration i have ever seen. [laughter] i just want to touch on my final thought to go back to the whole unity message, embracing identity politics like joe did is the opposite of unity because for identity politics do exist,
2:59 pm
you have to keep a nonstop narrative of racial conflict and oppression going, and going, and going. there is only two things that can bring a unifying feeling to america. you have to stop calling people racist when they are not racist. and you have to legalize mdma. do that, everyone is happy. [laughter] >> juan: all right, sworn in the new vice president, kamala harris. and she used marshall's bible. what did you think? >> i think the fact that you have the first woman in that position, it's a big deal for women and a big deal for the country. it wasn't just women, a lot of people voted. i was glad to see it. i do think that there's a lot to watch in the future when you've got the filibuster fight, the power-sharing fight in the senate. today is a great day to talk about unity, we will see how it goes in practice.
3:00 pm
>> all right, dana. thank you very much. if the country could be as unified as we are here on "the five," then america is in great shape. that's it for us tonight. "special report" starts now. take it away, bret. >> bret: total unity, jesse. thank you. good evening from washington, i am bret baier. tonight, america has a new president. and the free world has a new leader following unique and understated inauguration ceremony held against the backdrop of lockdown security and of course a deadly global pandemic. president joe biden immediately took the reins by signing an number of executive orders, reversing several of his predecessor's initiatives. about 1,000 miles away, donald trump began his life as former president after four tumultuous years in office, leaving a letter to his successor in the desk. like
