year on the road. we'll do 55ish shows. >> brian: where do you go to get tickets? >> ticketmaster. that's where you always go to get tickets. >> ainsley: some people do their own website. >> sounds like a lot of work. >> brian: you get the keep most of your money. >> steve: what are you doing at 4:00 this afternoon? >> i'm probably going to be in florida. nice and warm. >> steve: when you are in florida turn on the tv. today is the premier of will cain's program 4:00 eastern weekdays at fox. >> ainsley: infrastructure at four. will has an announcement. >> lawrence: it will be great. >> the golden age of america begins right now. during every single day of the

trump administration, i will very simply put america first. >> bill: now, america, we're off to the races. first 100 days well underway. president trump promising a new american golden age. moments from now his first cabinet member will be sworn in. marco rubio, secretary of state to be sworn in by the newly sworn in vice president, jd vance. good morning, everybody. i'm bill hemmer back in new york city. a fascinating couple of days. we roll on today. >> dana: it was. i'm dana perino and this is "america's newsroom." it's warmer in the studio than last night on "the five." we're warm in spirit indeed. president trump took the reins at 12:03 eastern. >> bill: three speeches, more than 40 executive orders and proclamations, more than 100 personnel moves and more than 200 executive actions and took

nearly an hour of questions last evening from the oval office with the white house press corps. >> dana: reporters pressing him on what comes next. he said guys, be patient. >> here for 15 minutes. >> what was it like walking into the oval office this evening? >> what a great feeling. one of the better feelings i've ever had. >> dana: will cain host of the will cain show debuting later today is here with reaction. team fox coverage as well. aishah hosni but first to the white house and jackui heinrich is there. good morning. >> good morning, dana, what a 180 for the last four years around here when former president biden was occupying the oval office it was rare for the press to get into the oval, if we got in we would have aides shouting over us trying to get a question and shuffling us out of the room. in contrast, president trump brought in the full press pool

as he signed off a litany of executive actions and orders. multi-tasking, taking questions from the press as he signed those orders spanning issues like trade, energy, immigration and cultural issues and we all got to share in this moment live. take a watch. >> did president biden leave you a letter? >> he may have. wait. don't they leave it in the desk? i don't know. oh. >> was it there? >> thank you, peter, could have been years before i found it. wow, thank you. >> does it say anything on the outside? >> maybe we should read it together. i'll read it first and then make that determination. peter, thank you very much. i may not have seen this for months. >> free wheeling, talking to the press. for instance, he even

acknowledged while signing that order ending birthright citizenship it might face obstacles in court. he thinks he is on good ground justified trying to make that big change. we just learned we'll see more of that today. in her first interview carolyn leavitt announced we have to wait one more day for her press briefing because the commander-in-chief will be speaking for himself. >> i can confirm the american people will be hearing from the leader of the free world once again. president trump will speak to the press later this afternoon at the white house and we'll have a big infrastructure announcement. this man is already doing more in less than 24 hours than his predecessor did in four years. >> that big infrastructure announcement, we're awaiting details on that. we know vice president jd vance will be swearing in new secretary of state marco rubio. reports that john thune and mike johnson are heading to the white house today for their meeting with trump and also congressional leaders in the

afternoon. things are moving pretty fast and we're bringing it to you guys as it happens. >> dana: feels like we all got a shot of adrenaline. >> bill: good job. will cain joins us. big day for you, my friend. big debut at 4:00 today. this is the image you'll see second on the new white house webpage, all right? says america is back. before you get to that, you have this video of american military power which is quite impressive. he told america what he would do if he went back to the oval office. your view now to these executive orders got rolling out, will. >> he took no time to do it, bill. what a flurry of activity and it didn't even -- as you laid it out on the screen it didn't include all the parties he attended and ceremonies he attended as well yesterday. 78 years old. i know it's been said by worthy of mentioning once again he has more energy than someone like

me. for the american people what a day, 200 executive actions, all grounded in common sense, which he suggests puts us on the verge of a new golden age in america. i was watching the national title game last night but actually watching more of donald trump take questions for an hour from the oval office. it was more exciting than ohio state against notre dame. >> dana: i was watching it in the car with harold ford junior. this is boring, let's get back to the president. american exceptionalism is back by a columnist of their russell meade saying. aligning u.s. policy with the needs of the most dynamic future facing elements in the economy, the maga movement and its new found technology allies may be more consequential than many critics understand. i like to think way ahead in history, when people look back this time and moment of recognizing the need to press forward with america's advantage

on energy and technology could be the most transformational in this period of time. >> well, you know, dana, i think -- i won't try to make it too long of an answer but all three of us grew up in an age over the last century where we look at politics through the lens of left and right. ideology-based system. donald trump is not so ideological. not really republican, not conservative or right and pitted against the left. he have is a businessman and transactional. it will be grounded in good deals. also the values that led to the the volunteersmanship and entrepreneurs. whether or not it's energy or the set of billionaires on that stage yesterday, although in check by the people, populism brought in donald trump, we're on the cusp of launching into a new age for america.

>> bill: a phenomenal dynamic with the tech bros on stage. they got a chance to see what his job is like and what the movements are like. they canceled him four years ago and taken them back. >> i'll remain skeptical. >> bill: trump is no fool. he knows that's the future for information, for technology, for a.i. and the development here and everywhere around the world frankly. your show debuts at 4:00. tell our audience now, will, what your show is about. who is your first guest. go. >> i will need advice from both of you. dana is here twice to day to tell me what happens when news breaks as we learn today at 4:00 donald trump will have a big infrastructure announcement during the debut of my new show. i've always been in the morning. not used to being broken into by donald trump. today we'll have guest reaction to whatever that is at 4:00 that

infrastructure announcement. we'll have part of the tech crowd you will talk about started the university of austin. we'll have more guests in the coming days you will hear from someone like charles barkley as well. in this age. here is what i can promise you, i have been given instructions to be me. my goal is to do the same thing i've done in every program no matter what network. real and authentic with the audience as i pursue the truth. i won't always be right but i will always try to be right. it's a pursuit of the truth. that's what journalism is. >> dana: i'm glad you will be you. we love you and congratulations and we'll see you at 4:00. please make fun of the guys before you toss to us at the "the five." >> every day. >> i will. consider it done. >> dana: good luck. see you at 4:00. fox news alert here. cbp source has revealed the name

of the u.s. border patrol agent shot and killed during a traffic stop yesterday. the shooting happened in vermont about 12 miles south of the canadian border. molly line has the latest from that spot. hi, molly. >> good morning, dana. this border patrol agent that was shot and killed in the line of duty has been identified by sources as david mi will, land. killed at 44 years old. experienced agent that was here serving on the northern border. the shooting happened at a quarter past 3:00 on a section of interstate 91 that runs through coventry, vermont. the f.b.i. is calling an alleged assault of a federal officer. albany reports one u.s. agent was killed along with one subject and another subject injured is now in custody. the deadly incident happened in the sector of vermont, new york

and new hampshire, 295 miles of the international border boundary with canada. last year they apprehended more than 19,000 subjects from 97 different countries. since october 2023, it's more than a 17 fiscal years combined. the acting secretary of homeland security wrote every single day our border patrol agents put themselves in harm's way so americans in the homeland are safe and secure. my prayers and deepest condolences are with his family and loved ones. the last time an agent was killed in 2020. we came here in october to highlight the challenges and dangers that border patrol agents face on the northern border and our deepest condolences to everyone who lost this agent. >> bill: tough news there. back in d.c. trump team

confirmations picking up steam yet again. today elise stefanik, doug collins, both nominees set for hearings coming up in moments today. >> dana: we're waiting on the swearing in of marco rubio for secretary of state. he won 99-0. the woman who will serve the rest of his term in the senate ashley moody joins us live. >> bill: putting faith over politics. today is a day of tradition again. president trump will attend the national prayer service, national washington cathedral on his first full day in office. it is still chilly in our nation's capital but a beautiful sight. we'll take you there when it begins momentarily.

>> we know there are some changes. can you confirm that you have added back the diet coke fund? >> president trump: i just got here. my people come in. they are extraordinary decorators. >> bill: you have to give him a minute. peter doocy last night in the oval office about the diet coke button. that press conference went 40 minutes and they covered a lot of ground. he will come out later today at 4:00. >> dana: he felt like he could ask any question. what a turn around from before. >> bill: any moment now marco rubio will be sworn in as secretary of state after his unanimous confirmation by the senate and the process rolls on there. meanwhile top of the hour u.n. ambassador nominee elise stefanik will appear at her confirmation hearing. aishah hosni previews it all for us. >> good morning to you guys. that's right.

no surprise here marco rubio getting confirmed by a unanimous senate vote. every democrat and republican voting to confirm him. last evening he told us he was honored and about to be sworn in by vice president jd vance any moment here. he is expected to address the entire staff at the state department later on today getting right back to work. and one of the first things and priorities he will have is to help president trump end the many conflicts around the world including russia's war on ukraine. >> it will be the official policy of the united states that the war has to end and we'll do everything possible to bring that about in a way that is stable and sustainable. >> last night trump's dhs nominee kristi noem had a vote out of committee. defense pick pete hegseth favorably voted out of committee but this was a party line vote

and still some republicans that are undecided. susan collins is not sure yet about pete hegseth. sounds like they will have the 50 they need. while it is possible we could see a confirmation vote for him this weeks the democrats could try to the delay this whole thing. russell vought and john ratcliffe favorably reported out of committee. ratcliffe has democratic support. smooth sailing for him. congress woman stefanik has her hearing for u.n. ambassador. widespread bipartisan support because of her support for israel and we're watching these three very closely. tulsi gabbard, rfk junior and kash pat el. most controversial picks. their hearings haven't even been scheduled yet. we're working to find out what will happen possibly later on this month for rfk jr. >> bill: how comfortable are your shoes? >> we are used to this level.

>> dana: thank you. jd vance is about to swear in marco rubio to be secretary of state. >> thank you guys for being here. a great occasion, i will say it's pretty hard to top being sworn in as vice president and the buckeyes won the national championship the same day. a hell of a start to a run because marco is one of my favorite people in washington. and, you know, he is a son of cuban immigrants to this country. grew up in very humble beginnings but has a deep love of our nation. he is a bipartisan solutions seeker, a guy who can actually get things done but a conservative of great principle and great vision. i think more than almost any body i've met in washington, senator rubio understands the priorities of president trump and why it represents such a significant and frankly important and needed departure from a generation of failed

foreign policy. senator rubio will be the chief diplomat of the united states of america. but he will remain a friend. i'm proud to know him and proud to do this. senator rubio, thank you. [applause] i also of course want to thank president trump for nominating him and giving me a first easy swearing in. the first time i've sworn in an official in the united states government and i want to thank senator rich and making it easy. 99-0, right? i think even i wouldn't have got close to 99-0. senator rubio, a great testament to your career of service and this is a new chapter, man. i think you will do great. great. so i think we'll administer the oath and senator, you will say a few words, is that right? let's do it. okay. please raise your right hand'

repeat after me i marco rubio do solemnly swear that i will support and defend the constitution of the united states. against all enemies foreign and domestic, that i will bear true faith and allegiance to the same, that i take the obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of a vision. and that i will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office of which i'm about to enter. so help you god. congratulations, mr. secretary of state. [applause] >> thank you, mr. vice president for making time. it has been a busy 72 hours and maybe longer, but 96 hours, i

guess. but first i want to thank jeanette, my wife, who has been so supportive as the vice president knows well it is impossible to do any of these jobs we do including the senate but now in this new role without the support of our family and particularly of our spouses. thank you for being supportive every step of the way. i would not stand here before you today without that. i'm thrilled and grateful that all four of my children are here. the most important legacy any of us will leave behind and most important job i will have is father and husband and honored they were able to joins, amanda, daniella, anthony and dominic. i'm happy you can see this today and thank my colleague senator rich and his wife joining us. he managed the committee that brought us to this point but also one of my closest friends in my time in the u.s. senate. we by reason of chance we wound up basically being first and

second behind one another on seniority in every committee. we sat next to each other on the floor. people thought it was a plot. not by design but it is one of the most special relationships i have established. an honor to the with the vice president. someone i knew and admired and relied on for policy ideas before he was elected to the senate. i can't think of a better voice for the world and president's policies. as far as the task ahead, president trump was elected to keep promises and he will keep those. his primary promise to foreign policy the priority of the united states department of state will be the united states. it will be furthering the national interest of this country. he has given us a clear mandate. president trump made it very clear everything we do, this is true in government but especially at the department of state, everything we do must be justified by the answer to one of three questions, does it make us stronger, does it make us

saver and does it make us more prosperous. that's the promise he was elected to keep and the promise he will keep and we'll help him keep. a transformational moment. the united states, i think, is now as president trump pointed out last night and i believe deeply headed into a new era that i think will make the world a safer place. we have a president who made clear yesterday in his speech that one of the primary goals of american foreign policy is the promotion of peace. of course peace through strength, peace and always without abandoning our values, but i think it's extraordinary that it is something that needs to be said and hasn't been said enough in recent memory and we look forward to being a key part of helping the president achieve his agenda that he has a clear mandate to keep. if i may take the liberty for just 15 seconds to say something in spanish because i know a lot of people back home are very proud and i want to make sure i acknowledge that.

[speaking spanish] i just said i saved a bunch of money by switching to geico. that's what i said. [laughter] i want to end by thanking almighty god and my lord and savior, jesus christ, that is truly the single purpose of our lives. most important priority, the only thing that will matter when we take our last breath on this earth but this is an extraordinary opportunity that wouldn't have been possible without god's blessings. i'm honored and privileged. i thank president trump for his

confidence. we'll work hard every second of the day to help him achieve the agenda the american people have given him to achieve. thank you for being part of this today. god bless all of you. thank you. >> thank you. [applause] >> thank you. >> we'll talk more soon. >> dana: the new secretary of state marco rubio, who is i thought at that end note was so gracious to his parents who fled cuba and gave him a chance at a better life and becomes the secretary of state. >> bill: the first time around with trump's cabinet he knew them but a meet and greet. he got to know them when they were in the job. this time they were all handpicked. it will make a big difference this time. >> dana: he was confirmed 99-0. we have a new senator from florida. we want to bring her in now ashley moody. she was florida's republican

attorney general. she is now the new senator. maybe just a comment here about listening to marco rubio. i know you are friends with him. must feel very proud to see him take that oath. >> it is a great day for our nation and certainly florida is so proud. he is our first secretary of state from the state of florida. we could not be more happy for i almost said senator rubio, secretary of state rubio and his entire family. this is going to be a great four years under president trump and his incredible cabinet beginning with florida's own marco rubio. >> dana: senator, you are getting used to a new title as well. how are things going there as you try to figure out where to live, how to staff your office and what kind of shoes to wear? >> my excitement has carried me every day. as you may remember the last four years as attorney general of florida we have fought so hard pushing back on this

disastrous immigration policies coming out of the biden administration. i found out last wednesday night that the governor was going to appoint me to the senate. and so regardless of ledge is particulars my entire family is here and living out of hotels and suitcases but i cannot tell you how excited i am not just with the executive orders coming out yesterday from, you know, sending military troops to the border, canceling the cbp one app, remain in mexico. these are all things. >> dana: let me play a little bit of president trump. this is on the national emergency at the border. >> president trump: first, i will declare a national emergency at our southern border. [applause] all illegal entry will immediately be halted and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came.

>> dana: senator, our most recent fox news poll shows immigration and deportation were at the top of the list for priorities along with the economy and jobs. from your experience, what practical applications can the actions that president trump took yesterday have for attorneys general across the state or local communities that want to work with the federal government. >> one of the first things that biden did -- this is one of the reasons i don't say this lightly, he really became a trafficker in chief. one of the first things he did was tell local law enforcement officials to start releasing people who had been arrested on serious felonies here illegally back into the community. this reversed precedent under democrat and republican administrations. it was one of the first suits that we brought and it was frustrating because the courts told us states you don't have standing to sue. you can't sue. so we have an administration that dropped the ball, just let people into our country,

released those committing crimes into the communities and we had the courts saying that the states couldn't sue for that. the laken riley act that was passed last night by the senate changes that. and the executive orders that came out in a flurry yesterday. i commend president trump for living up to his promises. we have a commander-in-chief back in the white house that puts prosperity and safety for americans first. >> dana: senator, enjoy your time getting settled in there. i'm sure we will see you often an "america's newsroom," thank you. >> hope to be with you. >> dana: okay. >> this is an order creating and implementing the department of governmental efficiency known as doge. >> president trump: that's a big one. >> bill: one of the first big executive orders creating doge. lawyers are going to work. we'll see how it turns out and works out over time. stay tuned for more. another big one on the president's desk is defending

women from progressive gender ideology. >> thank goodness. we had our voices heard. i wasn't just speaking for myself but for so many people like me who reject the notion of absurdity that the democratic party has become. and minerals, nutrients for immune health. and ensure complete with 30 grams of protein.

policy. we have our panel here. great to have you both here with us. give me a little bit from president trump last night. call for number one, please. >> president trump: i will also end the government policy of trying to socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life. as of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the united states government that there are only two genders, male and female. >> dana: my friend was at the rally at capital one arena. that line got more cheers and applause than anything up to that point. >> which is funny. it is kind of a sophisticated abstract line socially engineered. the idea that the public rejects it outright. the executive order, wants to

bring about a common sense revolution. what could be more common sense than a simple declaration that sex and gender are -- there are only two of them, male and female. >> bill: from this woman to this man. >> are you a biologist? here is the thing. this was the key swing issue in the suburbs. i believe this. it pushed people. the left went way too far. it went to far to the left on this issue and people said enough. they were afraid to speak out. the minute it affected their kids with sports and locker rooms and everything else, that's when suburban moms and urban mom and dads said enough is enough. when they played that ad during football games saying kamala harris she would pay for transgender surgery for inmates. enough is enough. people watching this in the city said no. the left gone too far. trump is so smart to say this. >> dana: the most effective ad they had was she is for

they/them, i am for you. that ad was an award winner for sure. the other executive order is about ending an equity and dei in federal hiring. listen to him here call for number two. >> president trump: it's a big deal. merit. our country will be based on merit again. can you believe it? >> dana: you can pull it up here. it says federal hiring should not be based on -- they have to figure out all the legal language saying we want the best qualified candidates. >> sure, yeah. democrats embraced racial and gender ideology at their peril. at their detriment not just because it was a distraction from the kitchen table issues of illegal immigration and inflation but because these ideologies created real victims. the candidates that got displaced or passed over for a job when they were the most qualified because they didn't fit a racial quota.

when it comes to gender, female athletes disenfranchised in their own sport lost trophies, titles and scholarships before you get to the teenage victims. >> bill: the last line on screen. putting critical government functions at risk. risking losing the best qualified candidates. that goes back to merit, that goes back to achievement, what goes back to self-promotion, that goes back to a lot of things that trump is trying to build up in america. put your best people forward. >> if you are getting on an airplane do you want the best pilot or the one chosen because he or she checks all the right boxes? this is common sense here. we love equality of opportunity in this country. equity of outcome is just not american. not the american spirit. so many people have been passed over for a job or afraid of loseing their job because they don't check all the boxes. everybody wants the best. everybody does. even people saying we have to

fulfill this or that requirement. when you are on the operating table you want a doctor knowing how to deal with you from a surgical perspective not because they got a right prize in the cracker jack box, come on. >> bill: criticism about the l.a. fire department and he is going out there this week and see whether or not that comes up during that visit. watch this. >> i'm excited also for people to be able to start getting their lives back. tough at first, some people's lives are completely ruined. but, you know, like trump said the american spirit we can push on. >> bill: there is a sweeping executive order signed and issued for a pardon for more than 1500 january 6th defendants commuting more than a dozen sentences. jonathan turley wrote a book on this. he is our guest next. maya knows how quality care can bring out a smile. but it's been a few dog years

because most of supported people being held accountable. it was a terrible today. the justice department unleashed one of its top lawyers a shock and awe campaign and scooped up hundreds of people and often demanded really excessive sentences in my view. most of these people were charged with trespass or unlawful entry. most of them were not violent. the government tended to oppose bail. they kept a number of them for a very long time in segregation. some cases they demanded limitations on what people could say or read or associate after they were released. all of this tended to undermine their case. so when the president campaigned on this issue, i think a lot of people wanted to see this chapter closed and he certainly did that. this was broader than most people expected or even asked

for. >> bill: okay. that was one thing. here is another thing. apparently during the speech, that's when now ex-president joe biden pardoned many members of his family and chip roy in congress says implications that they needed the pardon. let's call them before congress and demand the truth. i don't know if that will happen. you write biden left any principal after these pardons. >> there is a reason he did this. when he was literally going out the door. you do that in the final 15 minutes because you don't want press scrutiny. and it really sort of stripped away any pretense from any of this. he couldn't say this was because his son was an addict or pending case. this was about protecting the biden family. i've been writing about the biden family for about two decades. and this is a city that really

values insider influence peddling. the favorite form of corruption. we've never seen anyone like the biden family. they are in a league of their own. we are talking millions of dollars that ultimately went through various accounts from foreign sources. we're talking about a president who repeatedly lied to the american people, a media that enabled all of this to happen. at the very end, he really fulfilled the worst stereotypes of his legacy. and i think that ultimately this is what will be the most lasting aspect of the biden legacy is this corruption. and this was an act of corruption. >> bill: thank you for your time. we've got a lot going on nice to see you. thanks. >> dana reads sports. >> dana: it's the buckeyes or bust. >> here they come. heavy pressure.

delivers, downfield, it is smith. he has got it. jeremiah smith. >> dana: ohio state beat notre dame to win the college national championship. the back breaker late in the game. qb will howard throwing to smith for a 56-yard gain. ohio state players and fans celebrating the big win. espn aired a message from president trump during halftime basically trump saying don't choose sides. >> inauguration day, president donald trump had this message. >> hello to my great fellow americans. this has been an historic and exciting day for our country. to all of the players and fans watching tonight, i know it's been a long and difficult journey. it's been a long season. but you have two tremendous

teams and get to the game and go out and fight hard and fight fair and let the better team win. >> dana: president trump's team knows how to blanket the field in the media and maybe they wouldn't have run that last time around. but i really commend their teams but also he is willing to do it all. that's -- believe me that's not always the case. >> bill: two great teams. ohio state, congratulations national championship. you have to think about two months ago, two months ago they were embarrassed on their home field by michigan. throw the flag onto the team. team 500 on the year. they ran the table. high stakes on the hill moments from now. confirmation hearing u.n. ambassador nominee elise stefanik gets under way as day two of the trump administration goes full steam ahead. you see, every year we take the finest fibers
