[ cheers and applause ] >> seth: i wanna thank my guests christian slater, zosia mamet, everybody. thank you all for watching. we love you. [ cheers and applause ] ♪ ♪ right now at 11:00, a day of pomp and circumstance turns into a night of glitz and glamor. newly sworn in president donald trump and the first lady attending several inaugural balls, the celebrations going late into the night. all of this after the president was sworn in. he wasted no time in getting down to business, signing dozens of executive orders, some right in front of thousands of his supporters at the inauguration rally. others from the resolute desk inside the oval office on

the list of action items, stricter immigration, gender identity and tiktok. the backdrop of all this a peaceful transfer of power and the culmination of an extraordinary political comeback. yes, tonight, donald j. trump is the 47th president of the united states, only the second president in our nation's history to serve nonconsecutive terms. he's also the first convicted felon to hold that office. after his swearing in, president trump declared that america's decline, as he calls it, is over. vice president jd vance also sworn in shortly before him. vance is one of the youngest vice presidents in u.s. history. it marks a rapid political rise that propelled him from modest ohio roots to the heartbeat away from the presidency. now, once the inauguration ceremony came to a close, president trump used the power of the presidential pen to make big changes among the executive orders he signed, issuing pardons for roughly 1500 january 6th defendants and a crackdown on immigration. this sets the tone for an aggressive

first 100 days in office. here's nbc's thom jensen. reporter president donald trump got right to work on day one of his second presidency. within hours of taking office, i will sign dozens of executive orders. and he told the crowd at the capital one arena where he planned to start. everybody in this very large arena will be very happy with my decision on the j. six hostages pardons for roughly 1500 january 6th defendants, with some possibly release from custody as early as tonight. and that was just the start. so this is a proclamation declaring a national emergency at the southern border of the united states. that's a big one. a lot of big ones. he signed multiple actions on immigration and a change in the definition of birthright as it applies to u.s. citizenship. we're the only country in the world that does this with birthright, as you know. and it's just absolutely

ridiculous. but, you know, we'll see. we think we have very good grounds. the president also issued withdrawal orders from the world health organization and the paris climate accord, and he signed proclamations ordering government agencies to only recognize two genders, male and female. the san francisco republican party is deeply committed to the idea that all people are created equally. the incoming chairman of the san francisco republican party might not see eye to eye with the president on gender equality, but he says voters showed they're ready for change on issues like immigration, the economy and law and order. and so people do want law and order. they don't want people to be able to walk into walgreens and steal $900 of things and then only just be, you know, subject to basically no penalties. nbc bay area's legal analyst was following the swift actions from the oval office right through our newscast this evening and said some of these actions will likely see legal challenges. many of them will stick, some of

them will not. there will be an interesting situation. california, last time around, went ahead and filed suit in more than 100 cases and won most of them. so we'll see what happens. the president, though promising not to let up on day two. starting tomorrow, i will act with historic speed and strength and fix every single crisis facing our country. we have to do it in san francisco. thom jensen, nbc, bay area news. now, the ten executive immigration order signed by president trump are already reverberating and instilling fear in immigrant communities across the south bay, many wondering how it might impact them and what options they might have. nbc bay area's jocelyn moran went to a protest in san jose tonight, and jocelyn. immigration advocates are trying to figure out what the next step is. yeah, exactly. and there were actually a few hundred people at this protest. immigration was a big issue of the night. people tonight saying top of mind is president trump's mass deportation promise and birthright citizenship. tonight, we already know of at least one lawsuit against the administration, and no doubt

there will be more to come. tonight, a rally near santana row drew hundreds, many holding signs protesting trump administration policies, including deportations. we pain, pain to see so many people out here just fighting for it, i love it, but to know why they're here, it's what hurts the most. tonight, president trump sigd ten executive orders relating to immigration. among them declaring a national emergency at the us-mexico border. he also promised major immigration enforcement actions soon. can we expect ice raids in major cities? i don't want to say when, but it's going to happen. carol and erica heard about the protest and joined in for erica. she's thinking about her family, and my biggest fear is losing my parents. i can't imagine losing my parents. it's difficult to even think about anyone to think about it, because if i were to lose my parents due to deportation, my whole world would fall apart. earlier tay,

politicians, immigration activists and some law enforcement agencies in the south bay saying there is reason to fear but also reason to be hopeful, vowing that santa clara county will protect immigrants. the only way that we will collaborate with ice is if there is a criminal threat to our community, or if there's any type of criminal charges. but aside from that, we will not be cooperating with ice. one of our biggest concerns right now are his executive orders. president trump also signed an executive order trying to end birthright citizenship. it's already being met with legal action. tonight, the aclu filed a lawsuit calling it unconstitutional. we won't put up with ice at santana road this evening. people leaning on each other to support those now facing an uncertain future. that despite immigration status, whether you have it or you don't, everybody is united. everybody is in solidarity with each other. it warms my heart because i'm like, okay, we have support. we're here to back each other up. we're a community. reporter in san jose jocelyn moran, nbc, bay area news. also

worth noting here the cultural relevance of tiktok, another part of president trump's immediate agenda. an executive order that gives tiktok a 75 day extension. the president told the justice department not to enforce the law that bans the app for the next 75 days. this order does not overturn the supreme court's decision, but it does give the app time to find a u.s. company to buy 80% stake or face being shut down. mr. trump mentioned in the oval office tonight he might make a deal with tiktok, where the ownership is split 5050 between the parent company, chinese based bytedance, and the u.s. government. now, before all the balls in inaugural events, there was the official white house greeting early this morning, mr. biden and now former first lady greeted then president elect trump and his wife melania at the north portico, welcomed them back to the white house for a new term. the couples then shared the traditional inauguration day tea. today's events moved indoors because of the harsh winter cold outside.

the inauguration, taking place inside the capitol rotunda. presidential parade held at the capital one arena. a lot of big names in attendance, including former presidents bill and hillary clinton, georgend laura bush. barack obama without michelle obama, trump's former vice president mike pence also in attendance. for the last several weeks, we've known the silicon valley will have a major influence inside that trump white house. today we saw it. bay area tech leaders taking center stage, standing right alongside the first family and supreme court justices. elon musk, apple's tim cook and sundar pichai and sergey bn from google standing right next to mr. trump on the inaugural platform. also there, mark zuckerberg from meta and amazon's jeff bezos. they're not necessarily republicans, but they are businessmen hoping for favorable treatment from the president. they're clearly seeking an environment with as little regulation as possible. how do we start to empower the

federal government to be able to simplify, as well as accelerate how innovation is actually happening? elon musk, not only on the main stage with president trump during the swearing in, but later addressing the crowd at t that rally at the capital e arena. we've seen this over the last few months getting very excited on that stage whenever he speaks at a trump rally. during his impassioned speech today, musk made a gesture that some are comparing to a nazi salute. some elections are, you know, important, some are not. but but this one, this one, this one really mattered. and i just want to say thank you for making it happen. thank you. thank you. my heart goes out to you. those gestures or salutes causing some

raised eyebrows. not sure what his intent was tonight. marco rubio is the country's newest secretary of state. late this afternoon, the senate voted unanimously to confirm the senator from florida. rubio also cast a vote for himself. rubio now becomes the nation's 72nd secretary of state and the first cabinet member of trump's administration to be confirmed. florida attorney general ashley moody has been tapped to fill rubio's senate seat. two key trump cabinet nominees are one step closer to confirmation. pete hegseth, the nominee for secretary of defense senate armed services committee, has voted along party lines 14 to 13 to send his nomination to the senate floor. and john ratcliffe, the possible next director of the cia. senate intelligence committee has voted 14 to 3 to advance his nomination. all three votes against ratcliffe were cast by democrats. the full senate could vote on both candidates later this week. so what now for former president biden? some california sunshine. shortly after the transfer of power, mr. biden gave a final wave and then

took off on that military chopper. no longer marine one. it's called special air mission 46. took that to joint base andrews, where he gave a farewell to his staff. joe and jill biden then boarded a plane for santa barbara county. they'll vacation at a private home. in his final act as president, mr. biden issued a series of pardons for members of his family. he issued a preemptive pardon for his two brothers and his sister, protecting them from any potential prosecution. some republicans have condemned the move as hypocritical. other pardons included doctor anthony fauci and members of the committee that investigated the january 6th attack last month. mr. biden. mr. biden pardoned and tax charges. former viceun president kamala harris touched down in burbank earlier this afternoon after wrapping up inauguration activities. harris headed right to a fire station in los angeles to meet and thank firefighters. she's also going to be volunteering with the world central kitchen to

distribute food to the community. harris and former second gentleman doug emhoff will eventually head to their home in brentwood. all right. a live look at the capitol, where president trump took the oath of office today. we are already expecting the president to sign more executive orders. it is now tuesday in washington. stay with us for the latest developments in d.c. on air and online on nbcbayarea.com. we also have an entire section dedicated to tonight's inauguration events. we are back in 60s with tonight's other big headlines, including the latest from southern california. the wind unfortunately picking up again. but there are signs of progress in the fire zone. a break in at memorial stadium on the campus. it has the attention of police. what happened over the weekend? and the photograph? police would like you to see. and i'm chief meteorologist jeff ranieri. details on our frost advisory and where we'll get close to the freezing mark. plus, travel delays could stack up

and another red flag warning in effect for parts of los angeles and ventura counties tonight. the wind again has everyone on high alert. this is video from porter ranch this evening. you can see the trees just whipping around. the good news favorable conditions over the weekend did allow crews to gain more ground on both thealisades and the eaton fires. palisades fire, now 61% contained. tonight, the eaton fire in pasadena, in altadena in the pasadena area, is 87% contained. unfortunately, the death toll from both fires is at 27. more than 114,000 structures have been destroyed. more help is heading to the burn zones. governor newsom issued an executive order to speed up wildfire debris removal. the order aims to prevent more destruction in burn zones. if the region gets heavy rain later this winter or spring. removing debris improves flood protection and can stabilize hillsides. burned hills d not absorb water

well, which creates a potential for flash floods and mudslides that could wipe out homes in its path. the wildfires continue to raise concerns here in the bay area. san jose's mayor, matt mahan, is leading the effort to make sure his city is prepared. the mayor sent a letter to the city council calling on them to provide a wildfire preparedness assessment. that assessment would provide community transparency on details like water availability, brush abatement efforts, and what steps property owners can take to reduce risks. the mayor says the results could lead to changes in the city's upcoming budget. a positive update on the air quality near the moss landing battery plant fire south of the bay area. smoke and flames first broke out at the vistra battery storage plant last week. since then, though, local and federal officials have been monitoring the air. and tonight, they say they haven't detected any dangerous chemical levels. concentrations of small particulate matter have been measured at good to moderate levels. emergency crews say they

are waiting for the fire to finally burn itself out, and they're not sure how long that might take. tonight, a special car show memorial to remember the lives of three students from hollister high school who were killed last week. dozens of teenagers gathered for a car meet up in hollister tonight. the event was organized to remember the three seniors killed in that car crash last tuesday in gilroy. the mother of one of the victims spoke to us for the first time about her 17 year old son. i feel very appreciative of all the community being here for my son and the other kids, and to see that they were loved like this. it's amazing. it's amazing. victor was a very happy guy, a guy that he liked to move forward all the time holding no grudges, no nothing, just moving forward in life. students also remembered an 18 year old and 17 year old victim for their love of helping others. a fourth student involved in that crash remains in stable condition at

the hospital. a burglary at uc berkeley's memorial stadium. police say it happened yesterday around 4 a.m. they say a person has been seen in surveillance video prowling around before that person ultimately broke into a storage room and stole items. these are the photos authorities have released. they say this is the suspect. they say he was last seen heading westbound toward piedmont avenue. if you recognize him or know anything, you are urged to call the berkeley police. this was also a significant day as the country honored the legacy of doctor martin luther king, jr. the civil rights leader was assassinated in memphis, tennessee, nearly 57 years ago. doctor king was from atlanta, where today his daughter spoke at a church service to honor her late father. my father led with the spirit of love and did and said things from a place of love. for him, love was not impotent. it was not a resignation of power. he

understood that love and power, conjoined harmoniously, are essential to creating lasting social change. dignitaries, celebrities and family members attended today's service at ebenezer baptist church, the home church of doctor king. it's near downtown atlanta, where his burial monument is located. here at home, community groups in oakland honored doctor king by taking part in a day of service and a day of action. they cleaned up parks, streets and schools, grabbed shovels to plant trees and shrubs to beautify the neighborhood. hundreds of volunteers also took part in the mlk day of service at the alameda county community food bank. they prepared enough food for thousands of families in need. the volunteers range from black fraternities and sororities to corporate partners, youth groups, and service organizations. a one hour train ride today meant so much more than usual, as hundreds of people took the time to celebrate doctor king's legacy. people piled onto the

train in san jose, heading to san francisco, and along the way they found their own way to remember doctor king, either through trivia questions about his life, some drum tributes, and even dancing. for some, the train ride wasn't necessarily about the destination, but more on the journey to equality. and this is a very special day. i've been coming for the last what, last ten years? every year i come because he fought for justice, for justice and equality. once the riders arrived in san francisco, they joined t 4000 other people marching through the city to a rally at yerba buena gardens. very nice. this has been a special day across the country. jeff ranieri, joining us now to talk about our workweek. for so many people, that begins tomorrow. yeah. and it's shaping up pretty good here as we roll through the next couple of days out here across the bay area. we did have some wind today. that wind for us is gone. well, that will linger in southern california tomorrow. we'll get this area of high pressure, bring some sunshine. although the temperatures tomorrow morning are going to be chilly. check this out. frost advisory
