think it is perfect sets the tone. doesn't overwhelm with lyrics. i feel like he was once married to somebody famous. >> but it is a coldplay it is cold. >> is that what it was about more than more about the band not the song. but exciting to be here we weren't there four years ago because of the chaos after all of the election stuff so we're back here again. it feels -- it feels like everyone is upbeat it feels almost like a super bowl. where the teams coming to town. lawrence: a good way to put it. brian: unlike that two teams with different fan bases. i feel like everyone is here for the country, and you notice that when that girl got emotional in the 6:00 hour, there's something about trump that represents the country. he's almost the vehicle for patriotism. ainsley: yes. brian: they chant trump and when they chant usa that is the ultimate compliment if you see

somebody and think i love the country and that's my representative. i think you're doing the right thing and i think they get the sense no matter what happens over the next four years he's doing it for the right reasons. lawrence: it is america first that comes with american economy, the american security. the health. everything is proamerica and these people that we see lined up they didn't demonize for eight years. every single name and now they feel with the president it is one thing to win the electoral college but another to win the popular vote what their view point is in the majority right now. i think there's deep emotion for those folks they're sad we not going to see the president there. but they're also excited. ainsley: so many people travel down here and spend a lot of money to come and because of the cold weather i think the president said five or seven degrees for the inauguration supposed to happen right here, and he's moved it inside for that reason. many thought it was for security reasons but when you talk to the

president he will say that's not it at all it is because of the weather and elderly people welcome at the event so he didn't want people to -- freeze to death. steve: including joe biden. the last time this happened where they canceled the outdoor festivity was 40 years ago. i was here 40 years ago covering for the nbc station here in washington. and the only engts were the balls. inaugural balls they had it indoors at the white house. it was much different things have scaled back. they're going to only have instead of a quarter of a million people who got tickets out on the great lawn, instead about 500 people are going to be under the rotunda. ainsley: yesterday we were in palm beach and donald trump's plane was on the runway and traffic was really backed up we knew he was leaving about that time there were people on the streets waving to him honking horns so excited that he was -- and we said the next time he

comes back to palm beach he'll be the president of the united states and he was flying on air force one. that big, beautiful white plane with the blue base and then his plane was flying half of the family. steve: air force one is any plane that the president is on. so -- it's one of those. ainsley: but this was the white one that said the united states of america on the side. lawrence: i told ainsley it became real for me when he did the salute. when you saw the salute of him getting back on a plane you knew we're back in business now. it's about to happen now. the next time he does the salute he'll be the president of the united states. ainsley: to the show last night and you took the fireworks display and the shot from behind where you see the back of donald trump and back of melania overlooking the crowd and the fireworkings above them. it is beautiful. brian: fire was coming up and down. i think it is going to be great too carrie underwood huge star.

last time around that big stars they wanted to come out and now you have carrie underwood there snoop dogg and also parker mckowl he will be there one of the singers mcgraw and then nelly so you've got -- >> lee greenwood. >> i saw mcgraw we did a diner at his brother's restaurant but i saw his brother on my train yesterday. they look just alike. it is like i'm heading to the inauguration. steve: let's not forget kidd rock he'll be on the show in the next hour so buckle up. brian: you talk about diverse generas. unbelievable rappers with country music stars. lawrence: that is how it was and now we're get thing back to some normality. ainsley: we're not going to see the whole crowd do the donald trump dance. we did --

lawrence: speaking of crowd we have griff jenkins live outside capital one arena he joins us now. hey, griff. reporter: hey, lawrence, good morning guys. the energy and the crowd is building out here. and by the way, they're going to have kidd rock billy ray cyrus in the village people, you're hearing trump chants here we're another 10th and h the end of the line goes blocks and blocks back. but where we are sort of a mid-point this line goes all the way back that way. around the corner, there's thousands out here. we're talking to some of the people ma'am what's your name? >> dorothy harp harpe. >> why did you come here? >> why not? >> trump is here that's why i'm here. >> i'm supporting donald trump. trump he won and he going make america great again. >> what does this moment in this president mean to you?

>> a lot. man. we were tired of the, you know, the old way. we got to go back make it good. going to make it better and bring prosperity peace, love, joy, and happiness all of that back to america. reporter: y'all agree with that? >> let's keep working down this line you can see people standing out here -- >> eovaldi, texas. >> what's this president mean to you? >> it means that our children have a future. we have to show america that we are not going to turn into a communist country, and we have to educate our children, and they get to educate their friends. reporter: thank you very much let's keep working this way. these people have been out here for so long and this is about the mid-way point here. let's just talk to some folks. hello. hi there. this is a guy i was looking for this is for brian. so brian kilmeade who is on

right now. what's your name? >> jason. reporter: was wondering what's bigger this trump rally or that commander vrkt last night because you got a redskins hat on. >> trump i'm here for the commanders rally. >> what's your name, ma'am? >> carol -- >> where are you from? >> wisconsin. >> came from wisconsin. >> heck yes we did. >> supporter of sean duffy. >> good. checking the phone checking to see -- so this rally why did you come? >> because i'm ready to have my president back. >> what's that president mean to you? >> freedom. >> all right let's keep working our way. santa monica. >> yeah santa monica, california. ten block away smoke everywhere.

kamala harris too -- >> you blame here. >> checking in with the crowd this morning. back to you. >> griff jenkins working the crowd. >> tell ms. dorothy i said hello i remember her from a diner in georgia -- >> good memory. brian: eight minutes after the hour a great law background went to college for it. fox news sungdz shannon bream. shannon welcome back. i know you'll pump for your show. shannon: welcome to washington guys great to have you here. >> thank you. brian: first off biggest storyline is inaugural other subplot is we have what's happening with the drama overseas with the release of the hostages and tiktok. but first off donald trump just seems to be on cloud nine. you saw him a little bit last night. going to have a series rallies and appearances today. can you describe and compare how this inaugural feels compared to

other years? shannon: well i have to tell you from eight years ago it feels very different than when president trump and melania former first lady soon to be first lady again when they showed they were scrambling. listen people who elected president trump loved that he was not a washington insider. but that meant thing a lot of ways he didn't know exactly what he was walking into. it feels like there's so much further down the line when it comes to getting their nominees getting their employees people lineds up to step into positions next weekend. his agenda, he knows how it works on capitol hill who is for him and against him. so it just seems a lot more organized and you guys have met a lot of the people that are here for the events and they're superexcited. lawrence: even "the washington post" are framing it this way. they're saying this, the president-elect donald trump is returned to washington. triumphant legal cases are behind hmm corporate executives flocking to mar-a-lago to meet with him and record sums of

money from the ceremony and republican party is fully in his control. on all areas it looks like he is getting five stars. shannon: and three oar four years ago you guys no everybody had, you know, written his political obituary. it was over. this is really one of the biggest comeback storieses in u.s. politics. just to see what a difference three or four years can make and our latest fox news polling has him at the highest approval rating we've ever measured him at. people have had four years of hem they knew the downside and upside now president trump is come back for round two and our polling shows that americans cannot wait for him to get back and the issues they care most about. they think he's ready to tackle on days one. so it is not just the people not just the volters but as you said big tech silicon valley so supportive of the left and democrats many business leaders, foreign leaders, i mean they're acting as if he's the guy that's going turn things around they're excitessed to see him back. lawrence: right.

steve: one of the issues that impacts a lot of people is tiktok there are 170 million americans on tiktok 5 million businesses. the congress passed a bill to essentially ban tiktok. supreme court upheld on friday said yep, it can go dark. last night, it essentially went dark but now, essentially because joe biden shannon, didn't enforce the ban. now it is up to donald trump, and just in the last hour or so donald trump posted on true social save tiktok. so if you had to guess it sounds like tiktok is gong to live. shannon: well you know there's a provision in the law that allows him to delay this ban on tiktok for 90 days if there's, quote, significant progress toward a deal and can president-elect make argument that it is actually moving ahead. can he show evidence of the statute has language like documents and agreements in place i don't think we're there. but people like kevin o'leerily

and other groups say we thought to get something done. has bytedance shown any indication that it wants to come to the table to make a deal so far no and it's had time. critics who say listen even if they align with president trump on a lot of things including senator tom cotton this morning saying good it should be dark we passed the law. they had plenty of time and made no moves to divesture so even people team maga and trump, they may split with him on this about of keeping tiktok alive and it can live. it just can't be owned by people who own is now. >> as long as it is safe. >> there's 30 other nations that banned it partially or fully including india more followers editor in chief is the secretary of the chinese communist party. it's all we have to do is take a look at it. this is absolutely a spying device for the chinese. there should not be a hard decision -- and president could have taken it out of his own hands let the supreme court speak. >> shannon you have your show

today fox news sunday right here on the fox news channel who's coming on your show today? shannon: we do so israel ambassador to the u.s. michael herzog waiting release of the three young women this morning. brand new senator dave mccormick from the battle ground state of pennsylvania tiewk him about unlikely friendship and how he's working together already with his fellow senator john fetterman from pennsylvania, and congressman jared democrat in the house got a lot to get done over there he voted for the tiktok ban what does he thinks about attempts to save it this morning? steve: shannon you're at a position overlooking the white house. are the moving trucks still there because i read that they started to move the bidens out yesterday. >> i haven't seen them we've heard a lot of activity. but yeah there are a lot of folks who are trying to get down to the area to see and watch what is one of the most precision related crazy things that happens in washington moving out the entire family moving an entire new administration, the trumps feel better position to do that, of

course, ainsley you talked with the first lady about this. she knows lay of the land this time around. >> uh-huh. she does and she said they have five hours -- on monday to move out. and move them in. >> she doesn't need to mention the drapes they're her drapes. she's had them before. we'll be watching your show thank you for waking up early with us. shannon: see you soon. steve: we'll be watching. ainsley: fox news alert cease-fire agreement between israel and hamas is in effect after a slight delay in the deal overnight. >> chief correspondent trey yingst joins us now from tel-aviv. trey any movement? >> yeah at this point guys good morning it doesn't look like it yet but the entire region waiting to see when the red cross vehicles will start moving with the three hostages inside. after 470 days of war, the second cease-fire agreement is in place. there was a slight delay this morning, because hamas failed it to hand over list of hostages

that they promised the israeli military responded by striking positions across the northern and central parts of gaza. now hamas has now released the list 6 names three women all believed to be alive. their names are romi kidnapped from the nova music festival and a british israeli who was taken and who was also taken from kafar and women will be referred first to the red cross and then to the idf and taken to one of three reception points along the border and transferred to a local hospital and getting striking images from inside gaza showing hamas gunman parading through the streets in white pickup trucks. an indication group is not yet defeated as vale lee officials have tried to explain. now as we look forward here, this is going to be a moment of hope for the israeli people. they have been waiting more than 15 months for this day. and these women have been held inside gaza for nearly 500 days. guys.

lawrence: trey, i keep hearing from people i know that are there especially some of my friends in the military. community there in israel, is that it is not a fair exchange we're talking about hostages people that did nothing wrong. reason why they're celebrating because their fighters are coming back. to gaza and they're going to go right back to the battlefield, right? >> absolutely. lawrence, and when we look at the list of palestinian prisoners who are being exchanged for these hostages, it is a striking difference. we look at the three women one was taken from a music festival and other two were dragged from their homes on the morning of october 7th against their will into the gaza strip. all unarmed individuals at home. and then you have the palestinian prisoners who are being released as part of this deal. and these are not people who were being held in administrative detention. these are people convicted of carrying out the planning for suicide attacks. that killed dozens of israelis in the past for bus bombings shoot attacks in the west bank so there's a stark difference in

the individuals who will get a taste of freedom today, and it really underscores what's at stake here. still inside the gaza strip, there are dozens of israelis believed to be alive that will come out as part of this three phase deal if it moves forward as planned. but in response these israelis have to give up nearly 2,000 palestinian prisoners some of them convicted of terrorism and murder among other charges. steve: just terrible. ainsley: thank you so much trey. donald trump gave a shoutout to steve witkoff yesterday our middle east envoy called hail great negotiator to negotiate a deal between israel and hamas this is going to be on several phases we saw the three that were coming home hopefully today and then trey said there will be three or four next weekend and go on -- so on and so forth. brian: 42 days test if israel will break it and try to take out fighters when they can. lawrence: i do give credit to the biden staffers some of them

spoke very highly of steve wilcott because they use each other for the negotiation and president may have not highlighted what incoming trump administration was able to do but many people in the staff suggested that they use the president's comments to their advantage. ainsley: i hope we get to see hostages coming home hugging their families and see some of them might want privacy but -- trey was telling us that they'll first go to a hospital to be checked out. yeah. then maybe. steve: 45 minutes should begin we'll be all standing by to see. >> carr shimkus standing by. >> good morning. this just in, president biden issuing five more pardon this morning including to late civil rights activist marcus garvey. biden also committing citizens of two more people we're going to continue to bring you the details as we on the moves as we

for this deal and hostage release for over a year now since the last deal took place, and over a hundred hostages women and young children came out. so, of course, we're very excited for the families that are going to be reunited with their loved ones. but we're also very anxious right, it's a prolonged deal. it's very fragile. there's a lot that can go wrong. but we have to keep hopeful and keep pushing until they all come out all 98 of them. >> ronan. >> listen, before prumple president trump was elected it was statistic let's face it. the fact that president trump had a clear message by inauguration i want to see hostages coming out or else there will be hell to pay made a huge impact in the middle east and we're hopeful that with his leadership we're gong to see all 98 hostages coming out starting today with a three female hostages that we know their family and we're so emotionally

involved in this as well. and thrilled to see them coming out. brian: how do you feel about the exchange as we see three hostages there you have -- others up there. you know these families. >> we do. we do. we've become one family hostage families we've been going through this crazy roller coaster. of emotions for 15 month nows. and we've heard so much about these young women. we've gotten really close to their family website and we're very excited and full of anticipation of meeting them. and seeing them rehabilitate own continue with their lives. >> both you parents holocaust survivors to threat against juice and anti-semitism is thing you grew up probably wasn't a day you didn't think about it and when you get the word that

45 americans so, of course, it is terrible to see them celebrating right now but you know what, we celebrate because we believe in the dignity of life. they believe in the dignity of death. and we believe that every soul is important and those are values. and we'll fight for them. and we'll bring all of the 98 people back with the leadership of president trump we trust him. we know he's going to do it we know he's going push all the partners in the region in the middle east to make sure that those 98 are coming back among them our son. we have to bring our son to a proper burial it deserves it he was the first responder with his tank to rush to the border to defend with his bid and with his team the country. and he deserves to come back and we deserve a place to go and mourn. >> that would be phase two. >> that would be phase two yes. brian: thank you for continuing

>> well firefighters making significant progress on containing the l.a. fires, but strong winds are expected to return as early as tomorrow morning. that's the last thing they want to hear. fox business correspondent

madison alworth joins us from altadena, california, with the latest. madison. reporter: good morning, steve, firefighters are still battling to contain these fires as the death toll unfortunately continues to rise. the palisades fire is now at just under 50% contained death toll there 10 people confirmed dead and the search still continues eaton fire which is what impacted here in altadena is at 73% containment. the death toll has rise opinion to 17 people here, and 8 firefighters have been injured. but the work is really just beginning here in altadena. yesterday was a soft opening of the neighborhood. so what that means is people were able to return to their homes for the first time and see what was left of their homes. we also met nick who stayed behind and was able to save a lot of his neighborhood. he did so by grabbing buckets of water from the pools in the neighborhood and using that to put out as many flames as

possible. eventually he got his handle on a water truck donated by the construction company he works for because when the fire broke out in his neighborhood the fire hydrant were bone dry. listen. >> i think the fact that the fire hydrants had no water was such a terrible game changer, and hopefully huge lesson learned -- going forward is some sort of backup water supply, some sort of really strategically protected reservoir for all of those fire hydrants, and something like this happens -- hopefully never again. >> president-elect trump has said he will probably visit california by the end of the week saying in an interview, quote, i was going to go actually yesterday. but i thought it would be better if i went as president. it is a little bit more appropriate i suspect. and back out here live firefighters they're racing against the clock because as you said steve those santa ana winds they're expected to kick up this week. send it back to you. steve: madison thank you. let's check back with winds with chief meteorologist rick who has

the fox weather for wind that's bad. rick: it is bad tomorrow and tuesday across parts of california and this is going to be a moderate to strong excuse me santa ana event. so going to have to watch this one very carefully could cause some additional fires and anything that would spark up. now i want to go to the other side of the country because we have a couple of big stories here. first one is a winter storm today winter storm warnings in effect anywhere you see that purple we're going to be talking about some spots maybe seeing five to 8 inches or so of snow. and a lot of that right around big city maybe new york city in that range heading up across parts of lower areas new england. going to watch that one closely behind it cold air settles in for tomorrow by the way sunday, today get that snow in d.c.. tomorrow around 25 degrees but it is going to be really windy feel 11, 12 like much of the day tomorrow and need to be careful there. one other thing down across the south tack a look at this winter

would democrats block this and booster and manufacturing -- >> start with the big picture here donald trump is not inheriting strong economy but a economy with a lot of problems. i mean, you've got massive deficits, you've got spending out of control in washington. inflation is rearing its ugly head again so this guy has his agenda in front of him buckle up strap up because on day one as many as 100 executive orders most of them dealing with the economy. and so -- this is going to be the president who immediately is going to be like secretary right out of the gate. now tariff issue i don't know exactly what that tariff level will be. i don't think, i think you said what 20 -- ainsley: 60% for china on the campaign trail. >> i heard 10 or 15%. >> i'm not a big tariff guy when trump talks about tariffs he uses it as a negotiating strategy to get countries to do what we want and perfect example

is with mexico. we got to keep the fentanyl and drugs out they're going to either cooperate or have a tariff. i've seen it first hand how he's used tariffs effectively as a tool. but give us about three months three to four months before the economy really hits a higher gear. because there's a lot of left behind. ainsley: what about energy? >> that's a big one for us trump we're going use oil, gas, our coal nuclear power we're going return to being i remember my first meeting with president trump i said mr. president, he was donald at that time i said we can be energy secure, and independent he said i want america to be energy dominant. so i think within two years united states will be the dominant country in the planet in terms of producing energy and that means we won't be dependent on iran or russia. we don't want to be dependent on opec so that is tiptop but the biggest of all is we have to get the tax cut done we have to get

it extended it to make sure everybody knows if congress fails, we're facing one of the biggest tax increases ever because all of the tax cuts will phase out on january one we have to get that done. ainsley: thank you so much stephen thanks for your help advising the president we appreciate it. gathering for maga victory rally this afternoon, in d.c., and griff jenkins joins us now from outside of that arena. hey, griff. reporter: hey, ainsley and steve is talking about energy and let me talk about energy with this -- ready to go ainsley. these people have been out here for hours. it goes for blocks and blocks.
