>> you know what, we will need a longer show with 30,000-footer or any level to build. good to see you guys, what a morning it is. this is one of the biggest swings from a past presidency, thankfully, hopefully, forgotten but not how horrible it was for americans to a new presidency in a change. the past pardons, look what they were, the current ones by the president now president trump that justice was delayed in due process delayed for so many americans. thing you look at important actions designating cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and important to take on the chinese tongues. look at the issues that are both cultural and economic and a matter of security. all of these things taken on. and i like the optics for the

president and the actions of being in the arena with the american people because what he signs and what he signed and what he will sign means something to every one of us. in some way, it affects our lives if not directly, the community which at this as a president, like you said, 60 minutes in the press are always open to the public. he is open to the public. it is a new look for america to get back to an idea that america is for the people, by the people, transparent and open to the people. 30,000-foot looking down, put inside the barricades and get a route to d.c., this is a joyful, reasonable, thankfully common sense day in america. >> todd: but it wasn't without some controversy, that controversy happening throughout the morning. all courtesy of joe biden with regard to his last-minute family pardons. "the wall street journal" editorial board writing the

following, this is inevitable political logic of joe biden's career campaign. ignominious final act who has never lived up to self advertising as protector of democratic norms. i think they nailed it, "the wall street journal" so much for saving democracy in that final move, literally, as the clock struck midnight or it in this case new. >> there is nothing surprising surprising about this. joe biden has lied to us from day one when he launched his presidency in charlottesville, the very fine people, end. that was a lie. barack obama repeated it to save kamala harris going into the election. both thighs many lies, hunter biden what did he do about the business deals? contrasted with president trump who did something we all have been calling for and that is resending that national security access of those 51 officials who

lied about russian collusion. so much of the biden presidency was about the biden crime family and taking care of themselves. and joe biden did that so when he pardoned his family and the extended members as well, you have to ask the question, why? what is it that they might know or be party to or have knowledge of? you don't do that unless you are protecting them the way he protected his son with 18 year pardoned. look at general milley. if general milley performed as he stated he did, then why is the pardon necessary? look at dr. anthony fauci. there are a lot of questions. >> carley: the president reacted to it yesterday saying it makes the family look guilty and sets a terrible precedence. he said it 21 times ten here is one of them. watch this.

only in front of the americans but on the world stage. that he will call it as it is, and yes, people sometimes might not like the mannerism or the style. but look at the substance of what he aims to do and what his presidency and that means his cabinet, the administration aims to do in working with the republican congress where they have a trifecta and where we also have a constitutional report with a constitutional majority that will look at things the way they should. it is all about doing the right thing. whether you do word count like mannerism or not, do you like the policies? do you like the economic policies for the energy policy or border security policy? the various ways it will take things on including culture when you look at the laken riley act and also turn it around, this woke is, the dei, crt, dangerous

rift. out government for way too long and doesn't belong there. government's role is not to create a culture that to be there to serve the people. >> carley: so true and moments with j.d. vance's kids, todd, did you see them? >> todd: that stood out to me because every child has a need for band-aids. she probably didn't have a cut. >> carley: that was the negotiation. if you have band-aids if -- >> todd: writes. >> carley: j.d. vance's son was so cute, so over it by the time of the prey to. it was a memorable day for the first and second family. david, thank you for joining us and we appreciate your insight as always. in after being shot during a traffic stop near the northern border in vermont, officials say two suspects in the car after the shooting and one of the

gets to stay and thereby you get to stay. most circumstances, it creates seriousness a deterrence on the issue. it will provide the court's ability to provide clarity on the issue. the courts need to weigh in on this and this is a role congress needs to define what needs to be subject to the jurisdiction of the court. they might outright rule in the 16 favor or outright rule he can stay. it demands clarity but either way it is important for the trump administration to show we are done on these issues of just letting anyone get in the system here just be when there is dis- incentivizing effect number one and clarity of the courts too appeared to the senate passes laken riley act by bipartisan 64-55 and how big of a game changer is as, jonathan ine fight against illegal migrant crime? >> this is a huge game changer on two fronts. one, it means anyone arrested of

a defense not convicted but arrested has to be detained by i.c.e. and the deported. it catered by the biden administration led letting everybody go. but this means going forward if you are here illegally and committed a crime, you will be retained and remove. this will keep people safer and would have saved laken riley's life and the biden administration would have done differently would have saved others lives too. it shows how important security is, public safety is, putting the american citizens and of the interest of the illegal aliens. but it shows split in the democratic party. i think a third of the democratic and hunters voted for the bill. you would not have seen the six months or a year ago. so they shows this issue has gotten to the democrats. they are thinking about it and clearly a split in the party on

this. is this a trend going relate upper on immigration, or will this way back the other way once trump gets in the office? that case woke up americans to the wars of illegal immigration is an nonenforceable law. it will ultimately be cause and effect that protects american public, which is the most important thing government can be doing. >> todd: and americans voted accordingly. jonathan fahey, appreciated. >> carley: the media's reaction to trump's nomination measured and balanced. >> he has decided to make good on his promise to be a dictator on day one. just. >> it is like a cultivator who keeps predicting different dates for the end of the world. >> todd: the coleader again. joe concha reacts to the media freak out next.

first baptist church will be attending the national prayer service later today. before that, he joins us now. good morning to you. how important is the message from the president of the united states saying he firmly believes god saved his life? >> well, i actually voiced that sunday night at the preinaugural dinner with the prayer with president trump and mrs. trump. i said it was god who intervened. i believe the president believes that. we have a president who believes in the power of prayer. i have known him for ten years. he has many times asked and small settings or large settings to pray. i remember one time i was in the oval office and there was a powerful general there. president trump said, you know, general, when you think about it, robert is more powerful than you are. the general looked perplexed. president trump said no, think about it every day robert talks to the one who controls everything that happens in the
