inauguration of donald trump, 47th president. brian: right. ainsley: that's when it just hit me. i thought -- lawrence: you know when it hit he? when we took the shot -- you got to witness it live -- but him getting on the military plane yesterday. him and doing the salute. when he did the salute -- brian: first time in four years. lawrence: we're back in business, babe. ainsley: we were driving tot airport, and we saw him taking off in palm beach. and on the way to the airport we knew he must be on the road because traffic was backed up. they stop it around mar-a-lago so the motorcade can get through. steve: and now it's 15 weeks and includes a cyber truck. brian: the only other person that could do that the traffic, sean hannity. he's going to be on later. president-elect trump is set to have breakfast with gop senators before visiting arlington cemetery for the changing of guard and the laying of the wreath. ainsley: he then heads to the capital one arena to speak at a maga victory rally where we are

expecting thousands of supporters. steve: griff jenkins is outside of said arena and joins us a right now.

[cheers and applause] the weather's not even bad. you can see they are ready for that maga victory rally. president-elect trump's going to speak, vance is going to speak, elon's going to speak. they're going to hear from all sorts, kid rock, the village people, billy ray cyrus. what's your name? >> reporter: my name's barbara, i'm from new york. >> reporter: why did you come, and are you ready for this rally? >> i'm absolutely ready. i went to the msg rally, but i'm going to tell you something. i came to america 47 years ago yesterday, and now i'm here

today to witness, or tomorrow, the 47th president. you can't make make that up. >> reporter: what does this mean to you? >> reporter: it means a lot because my great grandfather was a miner, and my grandmother was born in west virginia is. then my father came here with my brother, they worked hard, and they brought all of us to america, and we came here for the better tomorrow, the land of opportunity. that's what we came for. >> reporter: and you gotta too going here. where are you from? >> reporter: i'm -- >> i'm from scranton, pennsylvania. >> reporter: why are you here? >> i'm a here for the 47th. we made it. we worked really hard to get here. the people put a mandate, right? so i'm just is proud, and i just, i want the see, you know, trump and make it official. >> reporter: did you get that tattoo because of pete hegseth? >> well, pete hegseth, yeah, you're right. but look, i have the that right here, and i'm going to -- the 45 right here, and i'm going to put

thanks so much, griff. the sights and sounds. griff jenkins still high from the commanders' big victory last night. a quick note, he says his kids really wanted to go to the inauguration, he was, like, i don't have any tickets, i'm working. they were so crestfallen. that's what you do. it's a great job, but -- lawrence: i would also say to those people because i know there's a lot of people who with traveled across the country, and they're disappointed they're not going to witness it. you've got a president now that is not going to be just stuck in the white house. i'm sure there will be more rallies, he's going to be visiting your hometown, and -- ainsley: speak to the press. lawrence: -- speaking to the press. you're going to get the opportunity. i know this is a full circle moment for people, but you should feel well because he's not going to be in bed at 4 p.m. he's going to be talking with the american people. steve: well, here's the thing, i flew down on an airplane from the new york area to here, and half the people on the plane were coming to the inaugural. and i asked, i was sitting where

people were walking by me, and they go, okay, do you have tickets? there are no tickets because 250,000 tickets were printed and given out, and the people would have been sitting all back there. but that event is not happening. and so i said, so if you don't -- are you going to a ball? not going to a ball. what are you going to do in washington? we might if actually be sitting in a marriott hotel room watching it on tv. they want to be here. everybody wants to be here, but given the limitations of the weather and the restrictions, they might -- ultimately, the tv will be the best place to see everything. brian: right. ainsley: we walked mt. he tell last night and ended up staying in the lobby for probably a good 40 minutes talking to people who were here and excited, some disappointed they're not going to be able to to go live and see him, but we understand it's because of the weather. you have joe biden will be there, all the former presidents too, so it's just going to be too cold. donald trump was saying it'll be, what, 5, 7 degrees?

i know that half the family threw -- flew on his plane yesterday, and half of them flew on air force one, the smaller one x it was really beautiful the see that plane on the runway because it's white, it and has the tiffany blue on the bottom. brian: right. we'll see if the president changes that scheme. he talked about it before. tom homan is one of the few after being named who did interviews, and he did it because he wants everyone to get ready, and he's going for mass deportations. i.c.e. is ready to go, and he's already bulking up the ranks. here's a little of the ajean you can expect to see tom homan do as early as tuesday morning. >> we're going to be targeted enforcement to operations. i.c.e. goes out, they're going to know exactly who they're looking for, pretty much where they'll find them. it's a well planned operation. they'll know who's in the house including children. this is the a well-planned operation. every target is well planned, and the whole team will be out

there for officer safety reasons. sanctuary cities, it's unfortunate. you would think the sanctuary cities, if they care about public safety, if they care about the safety of their communities, they'd let us in their jails. that's where we want to arrest the bad guy, in the safety and security of a county jail where the officer's safe, the community's safe and the alien's safe. steve: right. and we knew that there was going to be a big push after the president is sworn in at noon tomorrow. and we had tom homan on a couple weeks ago on the curvy couch when we were in new york city, and a couple days earlier it had been reported out of chicago that that a he had told a business group in chicago at a round table that the deportations were going to start in chicago. and then more details started coming out, and last week the "wall street journal" had a big story essentially detailing what i.c.e. was going to be doing in chicago. well, now they've decided given the fact that all that stuff has

leaked, what they're saying is the administration is reconsidering tear plans -- their plans, and now they're saying only some preliminary discussions about enforcement. we just told them to get ready. after this plan if leaked, the chicago city council voted not to help i.c.e. round anybody up. lawrence: well, or it's very unfortunate because we have to think about the legal ramifications of this. first of all, if i.c.e. is showing up to your doorstep, either you have a final deportation order, that means it's been add adjudicated through an immigration court, or you have skipped the appointment in some way where you didn't show up to get fingerprinted or anything like that or show up for your hearings or you're a criminal alien that has committed some sort of crime, makes you a risk to the country. so these are all cases that have gone through the legal process in some format. these are just not people that are going through the process to become citizens or asylum claims. so that's what they would be --

ainsley: well, and tom homan made a good point in that interview too. he said if you secure our border, your -- you're going to save lives. that's' the bottom hine here. we don't want the fentanyl crossing our border, we don't want criminals or terrorists coming over. he also said he's ready to take the handcuffs off of i.c.e. because they haven't been able to do their job. brian: right. and also on the wall, they're building the wall, drone, there's a lot of high-tech. and just quick, i think the self-deportation that mitt romney was mocked for, they said if you make things really tough when you get here with e-verify, people begin to not come or leave. and according to an immigration attorney, he goes, it's causing if migrants to leave on their own knowing that they're going to be deported or they could go back and go to mexico. because if you're in cuba and venezuela, you don't want to go back, i get it. it's not our problem, but i get it. they're going to look for another south american country. and remember, that's why a lot of them ended up in panama.

they realized they couldn't get in here, they ended up staying. steve: well, you would probably rather be in control of your destiny rather than the federal government, and that's why people are heading south or elsewhere. after the report leaked in the "wall street journal," i.c.e. made 150 arrests. they are still missing 864 fugitives. so when it does eventually begin, those 864 are going to b. ainsley: they'll be the first. lawrence: i don't know who leaked that, but that was a dumb move, to leak that to the press of the different locations that i.c.e. is -- i understand the reporter has to do their job, but whoever is in the administration that leaks it, you put the cops at risk when you start telling the locations that they're going to be. when they do fugitive apprehensions, those are some of the most dangerous situations, and we're dealing with criminals that have nothing to lose because they're going to get deported. so they have weapons, they fight the cops. it's just a dangerous situation which is why the administration

would prefer that the local cops take them in and just transfer them over. brian: meanwhile, 13 minutes after the hour. riewrns lawrence a fox news alert for you. the ceasefire agreement between israel and and a hamas is now in effect after a slight delay in the deal overnight. steve: okay. so three hostages, all women, are set to be released in just a couple of hours as part of the first phase of the new deal. ainsley: chief, our chief foreign correspondent trey yingst joins us now from tell avive. hey, trey. >> reporter: hey, guys, good morning. after 470 days of war, the second ceasefire agreement with of this conflict went into place in this morning. now, there was a bit of a delay in implementing the agreement. hamas failed to hand over the list of hostages that are set to be released today. this prompted the israelis to conduct a series of airstrikes across both northern and central gaza. hamas has now released those names of three women who are all believed to be alive, rom if i

gonen who was kidnapped from the music festival, emily, a british-israeli, and doron. on a briefing last night, an israeli official said the women will be transferred paris to the red cross and then the idf. they'll be taken to one of three reception points and transported the a local hospital. today we're getting striking maim images if from inside gaza showing gunmen in white pickup trucks, an indication the group is not defeated as a some israeli officials have tried to explain. here in israel there is hope for the first time in so many months. laterred today we do expect these hostages to be reunited with their loved ones here in israel. guys? brian: hey, trey, do you have a sense of what we're going to get a chance the see the hostages -- when? is it going to be after they go through the red cross and get evaluated for the degree of trauma they've been through? >> reporter: yeah, we'll have to wait and see. previously, the red cross was

not very empathetic to the hostages that were released in november of 2023, and they went through the streets of gaza. and people were cheering and jeering, throwing rocks and banging on windows of these vehicles as they drove through gaza. the israelis have requested to the red cross that this be done in a lower profile way to avoid such scenes, but those were the first images we saw during the first ceasefire about 50 days into the war. this time though we do know according to the israeli military the hostages are going to be brought to a reception point that sits along border between israel and gaza. there are three separate points, we are told by an israeli official, because they don't know exactly where they're going to be released inside the strip. at which point they're going to be evaluated by a team of psychologists, by army professionals ensuring that they're safe and in a location where they're secure, and then they will be transferred to a hospital here in central israel. we do expect to get some images along the way, but we don't know exactly where they'll be. steve: and, trey, quick question

for you. we know that steve witkoff who is incoming president trump's emissary in that region was involved in the negotiations toward the end of things. are the people of to israel optimistic that president trump, once he a takes office, might be able to do more things to get this, you know, all the hostages out more than joe biden did? >> reporter: absolutely. look, the incoming trump administration objectively played a critical role in getting this agreement done. steve witkoff was in doha meeting with the negotiating teams. we've talked with number of sources close to these conversations, and they say the pressure got the ball across the line. and this is important here because as we look forward, this is a three-phase deal. and with president-elect trump taking office tomorrow, the entire region is going to be looking very closely at what the incoming foreign policy is going to be as it relates to israel and the middle east. and this deal will just start to be implemented. as we look forward, it's

important to consider here these won't be the last conversations taking place in qatar. this is just the first phase of deal. and if it goes forward as planned, 33 hostages, some of them dead, some alive, will be released from gaza. but again, the bottom line here, this is a deal that is incredibly delicate. and if hen how see -- when you see those images inside gaza of fighters with weapons on the backs of wheat pickup trucks, it raises real questions about the past 15 months of war and what was accomplished from a military perspective. one final point here when we talk about the relation to the u.s. administration. you heard president biden talk about the deal that is on the table that was implemented this morning. it's pretty much the same deal that was on the table last may. what changed? there's a new president tomorrow, and there's a real clear indication in the region that things are going to shift in terms of the foreign policy of the united states in support of the israeli government here in the middle east. brian: absolutely. thanks so much, trey. on top of that too, the holding back, the the underreported

story. because it didn't work to israel's interest the bring it up, how many weapons systems and weapons were held back from the israelis, some of which would have done -- saved lives because they'd have been able to attack hamas right away, but they thought the weaponry was too heavy for the region and the area. that, i don't think, is going the happen at all with pete hegseth, the secretary of defense, and marco rubio as secretary of state. ainsley: trey was saying earlier that the next group to be released probably three or four from the humanitarian group, because they, you know, the women. brian: right. ainsley: they'll be released next weekend, if and he said this'll go on -- didn't he say six weeks? brian: 42 days. a. ainsley: how many hostages are still there? brian: 33 still alive, about 98 on the total roster. lawrence: i think the big concern is hamas is going to reconstitute. they've got more war fighters. they're going the plan something else. brian: here's the good news --

lawrence: there's an add a martian that's willing to push back -- administration, so that gives me hope -- ainsley: he said all hell will break loose. brian: where does the financing come from? lawrence: iran. brian: and who's gnat on their back right now with no missile defense -- lawrence: iran. brian: iran. and if we don't stop 'em. iran's on a fast pace to within a matter of weeks to having a nuclear a weapon. i'm pretty sure that is the red line for president trump more than any other world leader. you bring up nuclear weapons, that's when he takes action. steve: meanwhile, speaking of president trump, he's going to take the oath of office right under the rotunda which is live behind us right now, about 30 hours from right now. and it's interesting, given the fact that they're only going to be able to get 5, maybe 600 people in there, there's going to be a lot of members of congress who are not going to be there, in attendance. we don't know whether or not the tech bros are going to to be there. they're trying to whittle down

the list. we do know, however, that the president has already heard from senator bernie sanders because there's an op-ed on foxnews.com that was published 20 minutes ago. and, essentially, we know what bernie sanders has stood for through the years. he actually has has a plan, he does a little road map on places in the trump agenda where he agrees with trump, and then he's got some red lines on things he will not go for. and so, essentially, it's the game plan for a lot of democrats. ainsley: so let's start with what he will work with trump to do. he says i look forward to working with president trump on legislation that would end the absurdity of americans paying by far the highest price in the world for prescription drugs. brian: good. ainsley: president trump stated he wants to cap credit card interest rates at 10%, he's right. i will soon be introducing bipartisan legislation to protect americans from being ripped off by the credit card industry and look forward to his support. i look forward to working with

the trump administration if on new trade policies that will protect american workers and create good paying jobs in our country. brian: so what he won't work with him on is he wants the raise minimum wage, and scott bessent does not. engaging in mass deportations, he does not want to do that. he says about 20 million people in this country, many of whom have lived and worked here virtually their entire lives, part of our economy, he's not for that. bessent went on to say that he needed the raise the minimum wage, bessent says, i don't think so. i'm going to let the states decide what to do with that. i look forward to working with president trump when he stands with working families of this country. i will oppose him when he represents the needs of billionaires. that's' fine. that's all you want. when you have an opportunity to work with him, don't give him the heisman. and you pick those spot spots. and if senator schumer is going to be oppressive and try to keep his caucus down, they've got to push back because guys like

fetterman, if they don't do anything that trump wants to do, he's not going to get reelected. lawrence: i think fetterman is more in the mainstream than bernie sanders. brian: absolutely. lawrence: for example, when it comes to the border, that he only wants to focus on the criminals. obviously, that's the main priority, but the fact is, 10 million people crossed this border in the last administration. all of them are in the going to be able to stay. he talked about the minimum wage. donald trump is fighting for the worker. he's giving them no tax on the tips, no if tax when it comes to the overtime. a he's working -- so you may not get the minimum wage, but at least you getting something -- brian: bernie sanders might help him with the tips. lawrence: exactly are. then he goes to the climate -- that stuff is over. there will be clean opportunity for energy, but we're drilling. and we're going to drill a lot in this next administration. brian: you know what they say? he says if you have clean energy, if you have an alternative electric car, do it on your own without subsidies. i'm not going to put my foot on

the scale. let the american people make a choice. steve: ultimately, what bernie sanders is doing, he is realistic. he's a realistic politician. he knows that the republicans will have unified government. they're going to control both chambers of that building and the white house as well. and so what he's doing is he's saying, look, i'm one of the 60 votes in the senate that you're going to need to get anything through. so he just gave the president a list of stuff he will help the president get through. the other list? not gonna happen in the senate. ainsley: i love the the idea of interest rates being lowered for credit cards, because a lot of people, after inflation and what we've been through over the last few years with high prices, put things on their credit card -- can. lauren:s donald trump supports. that's. ainsley: sometimes the interest rate can be in the 20s. higher sometimes? steve: it varies. you've got to read the small print. brian: which nobody does. fox fox news alert, the long-e way awaited ceasefire that that goes into effect for the hostages, and hamas says the

release is going to happen today. i'll give you more on that in a moment. t... whatever you need you guys give me a call! ...to saving up... ...to income in retirement. you got this. vanguard fixed income funds can help advisors grow their clients' savings. vanguard. fifty years of high quality investments. can neuriva support your brain health? mary. janet. hey! eddie. no! fraser. frank. frank. fred. how are you? support up to seven brain health indicators, including memory. when you need to remember, remember neuriva.

moderate to strong event. i don't think as strong as the last one that caused the fires, but anything is problematic. they've got a lot of the fires under some sort of containment at this point, but we've got the winds coming back here again. you notice those darker colors, could be 70, 80 miles an hour again across some of the area. could make, certainly, some of those fires pop up again or new fires pop up pop up as well. the other big story we're watching is this cold air across parts of the northern plains. wind chill. thes this morning below if -40. that air moving towards the east coast and along with that we have a storm with winter storm warnings in effect all up and down the appalachians, up towards the northeast. some spots 5-8 inches of snow, and the snow totals forecast climbing a little bit from the if cities of new york to boston, maybe 5-8 inches in some areas around the big cities. all of this cold air really funnels down across much of the lore 48. it's going to be problematic.

and if we are going the watch a storm monday into tuesday right awe along the gulf coast, we could be talking about over 2 inches of snow in places like new orleans. is that cold having big impacts across the south. all right, over to you. lawrence: thanks, rick. we appreciate it. fox news alert, the ceasefire between israel and hamas is officially in effect after that hamas delayed delivering the names of three hostages to be released today. president-elect trump posted on truth social just moments ago, quote, hostages starting to come out today. three wonderful young women will be first. foundation for defense of democracy senior vice president jonathan schanzer joins us now. jonathan, thanks so much for joining the program. so we got the three names to be released. what is your biggest worry as this deal and this war, they say, comes the an end? >> well, i think we need to be clear here, i don't think this war's coming to an end. i think this is a ceasefire. what the israelis are saying right now is they have every

right the go back to the war after this first round. so these 33 hostages that are going to be released over 42 the days, after that i think all bets are off. i would expect the israelis, they do not want to watch hamas if bounce back, and that's the big concern, right in they can reconstitute. we've seen some of these videos of the hamas guys with their aks and rp pg driving through gaza trying to show everybody that they've not yet been defeated. that's the real concern in israel right now, and i think it should be a concern for all of us, to have an iran proxy after 15 months acting like nothing happened. lawrence: so this is going to be in phases, of course, as we reported. you just said it right here on the record, and i think many people know this, that israel is going to continue the fight. do you sorry that they won't release all of the -- worry that the e a that they won't release all of the hostages? >> early on you're going to see the lease. 900 prisoners today -- 90

prisoners that are going to be released if in exchange for these 3 women. that's going to go on for about two, maybe four weeks -- lawrence: then the soldiers as well. >> right. it's that second phase i just don't think we're going to see. the soldiers? israel would have to agree to end the war entirely in phase two, and i just don't think that's where the israelis are right now. i do think president trump's holding a few cards. i mean, if he wants to guarantee that the israelis can take care of the iranian threat, they might end the war for a time in the gaza strip because gaza's not their primary concern. of it's that iranian regime that the israelis are thinking about. it's weak. their air defenses were destroyed back in october. their ballistic missile capabilities are a weakens also. the israelis are looking at the entire region, not just gaza. lawrence: do you worry because the israeli hrt, the hostage rescue team -- some of the best in the world -- our folks,

military, navy seals, delta force, some of them train as well. some of i my sources tell me they're surrounding these hostages, it's a suicide mission. so do you worry that we may lose some of those folks? from yeah. i mean, i think that's been the concern all the way through. if you look at the way the israelis have been fighting this war for the last a 15 months, they've been really careful. and i don't think that's gotten enough attention. lawrence: yeah. >> they have tried to do everything they can not to take out those tunnels because they know that hamas has surrounded themselves with human shields. mohamed sin war, the guy that's running the war right now, yeah yeah sinwar's brother, he surrounds himself reportedly with so, 120 concern 10, 12, 15 live hostages. hooest going to have fewer to dr to do that with, but there's some serious decisions the israelis are going to have to make. lawrence: the great thing is they don't have handcuffs anymore.

they've got an administration that's going to support them completely. >> that's right. lawrence: jonathan, thanks so much for joining us. weave live in d.c -- we're live in d.c. ahead of the inauguration. a live report, look at those people. that's next. ♪ ♪ [cheers and applause] mylowe's rewards is here. join for free today to unlock member perks from the palm of your hand. with every purchase, all members earn point toward mylowes's money. get free gifts to bring home, member deals to get more projects done and free standard shipping. start earning for free with mylowe's rewards today. patients who have sensitive teeth but also want whiter teeth they have to make a choice one versus the other. sensodyne clinical white provides two shades whiter teeth as well as providing 24/7 sensitivity protection. patients are going to love to see sensodyne on the shelf.
