now but described it as generous. this morning he and vice president kamala harris will participate in a virtual prayer service that will be streamed nationwide. >> a lot of people would like to know what's in that letter. thank you. >> the new president got straight of work in a partially revamped oval office signing a series of executive orders and actions. he's expected to sign ten more today as part of an aggressive new effort to control the pandemic. our senior white house and political correspondent ed o'keefe has the details. ed, good morning. >> good morning, those executive orders are designed expand covid testing and vaccination programs across the country and in another sign of how things are changing this morning the new white house chief medical adviser dr. anthony fauci addressed the world health organization, a group that the united states is rejoining. his remarks came exactly one year to the day after the first confirmed case of covid-19 in this country. president biden's new nationwide covid strategy includes getting

100 million vaccines into the arms of americans by the end of april and safely reopening schools in the next 100 days. the biden administration plans to set up vaccine centers at stadiums and community centers and to deploy federal personnel to help administer shots. overall, mr. biden is expected to sign ten executive orders today that among other things require mask wearing on planes and trains and establish a health equity task force focused on racial disparities. mr. biden and his staff got straight to work on day one. >> i thought with the state of the nation today it's no time to waste. get to work immediately. >> reporter: in a redecorated oval office, the new president signed 17 other executive orders and actions, mostly rolling back president trump's signature policies. they end the so-called muslim travel ban, cancel the keystone xl pipeline permit, and hold funding for the southern border wall. the u.s. will also rejoin the paris climate accord. >> these are just executive actions. they are important, but we're going to need legislation for a lot of the things we're going to do. >> reporter: the administration is focused on setting a new tone. >> we're going to be judged

sides, both parties, to find common ground. >> reporter: but the president's policy agenda may not be as widely embraced. from a new immigration package to a covid relief plan. republican senator mitt romney is among those balking at the $1.9 trillion price tag to deliver new aid to struggling americans. >> we just passed a -- a program with over $900 billion in it. i'm not looking for a new program in the immediate future. >> reporter: lawmakers are also at odds over whether to grant a waiver to defense nominee lloyd austin, the retired general needs the exemption since he's only been out of the military for a few years. the house is trying to fast track a vote on it today to expedite his confirmation, but some are opposed even though these types of waivers have been granted before. gayle? >> thank you very much. the latest coronavirus numbers show the huge challenge facing president biden on this pandemic.

yesterday, u.s. officials reported another 4,200 deaths. so that brought the official death toll to more than 406,000 people. that's one year to the day since we learned of the first covid-19 infection in this country, think about that for just a second. so efforts to slow the spread are starting to hit a wall with some states running out of vaccine doses. our lead national correspondent david begnaud is in east lansing, michigan with more on this story. >> reporter: good morning, we are at michigan state university, this is where they do livestock shows and rodeos, but three times a week they drive people through to get them vaccinated. they'd like to add a fourth and fifth day but they don't have enough vaccines to do that. and that is not only the story here, but it's the story in other places around the country. with officials saying we've got the people, we've got the logistics ironed out, just send us more doses. as vaccination gets bigger, more election officials are saying the same thing to the federal government. >> double, triple what you're

sending to us, we're ready to provide the vaccines. >> that's the detroit mayor mike duggen. he has the full capability to get his city fully vaccinated in three months but he's just not getting enough vaccine to do it. >> we've got the convention parking structure where we could handle 25,000 vaccinations a week, and right now we're scheduling 6,000. we've pfizer right up the street. they'll agree let them sell them to the states. >> reporter: so far only 22 states and the district of columbia have used more than half of the doses they received. and moderna vaccines require two shots. to make sure they have the second shot set aside, some officials are halting new vaccinations. that's exactly what happened at baptist health in miami. they canceled all appointments for their first vaccinations because their expected allocation did not arrive this week. in san francisco, officials say they're going to run out of doses today. in new york city, mayor bill de blasio says they have the

capacity to vaccinate 300,000 people a week, but they're going to begin to run out of doses today, too. >> we've had to help 23,000 new yorkers who had an appointment this week that they will not be able to get that appointment for lack of supply. >> reporter: rivka press schwartz was one of those who lost her appointment. schwartz is a high school administrator in the bronx. >> it creates anxiety and maybe even a little sense of the coun. >> it's been so frustrating. thank you. anti-police demonstrators

greeted the inauguration of president joe biden with violent protests in the pacific northwest. they burned an american flag and broke windows at the federal courthouse in seattle. carried a sign reading "we don't want biden, we want revenge." they smashed windows and painted graffiti at the state democratic headquarters. witnesses say portland police appeared to respond with teargas and stun grenades. at least eight people were arrested. >> sorry to report that. a helicopter crash in western new york has killed three national guard soldiers. the national guard says the black hawk medevac chopper went down south of rochester last night during a routine training mission. witnesses report that they heard sputtering sounds and saw the helicopter flying low to the ground just before it crashed in a field. there were no survivors. officials have not revealed the names of the three troops who died. the local sheriff is calling them great americans. youth poet laureate amanda gorman is being praised this morning for her poise and her

florida is cracking down on a new trend that's being called vaccine tourism. reports show that people are traveling to florida from other states to get shots. some are even coming from canada and other countries. manuel bojorquez is in west palm beach with more on this story. manny, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, gayle. you can see from this beautiful location in west palm beach some of the reasons people want to visit florida. well, now the vaccine appears to be another. the governor has tried to be clear. he's not talking about so-called snow birds, people who own a part-time residence here and come down to spend the winter. he's talking about those who come here specifically to try to get the vaccine. can we say you've been hitting a brick wall trying to get the vaccine, every time you try? >> absolutely. >> reporter: as residents struggle to get appointments for vaccines, some are worried the

already limited supply may be going to people who don't even live here. >> right now my husband is over 65, and he called and went on line and put his name in, and after a couple of days got a response we'll let you know when it's comingment. >> reporter: still no vaccine. >> no. >> reporter: under florida's vaccine plan, health care, long-term care workers, and those 65 and up who are at least part-time residents are eligible to get the vaccine. according to data from the state department of health, of the more than 1.1 million people vaccinated so far, more than 39,000 reside outside of florida. governor ron desantis says people who get the vaccine need to live here, but he originally downplayed reports of vaccine tourism. >> we just want to make sure it's for floridians. >> reporter: but there's evidence it's not. the newspaper "lay llaye"layeri those from miami traveled to get the shot. yanina latorre recently posted

video on instagram showing her elderly mother getting vaccinated in miami. and local media says this celebrity lawyer from argentina got vaccinated while visiting the sunshine state. we reached out to both women but did not hear back. >> sort of a slap in the face to this community that is desperately trying to get vaccininated. >> repororter: francncis suarez the mayoyor of m miami where th vaccine supply is already limited. what do you propose happens or needs to happen then to prevent those who are coming just for a vaccine from getting them? >> i think what we need to do is be able to verify people's addresses and make sure that they're someone from the community. >> reporter: the attitude is almost winning the lottery. >> reporter: martin firestone is a travel insurance broker in toronto where the vaccine isn't expected until the fall. many of his clients usually spend the winter months in florida. >> they have no intentions of going down this year. only when the vaccine became available or they heard from their friends who were down in

distribution. and that setup is part of what has set the preconditions for this instance of vaccine tourism. >> reporter: it's not just happening here. a british travel agency is offering a vaccine tourism package for the egirquivalent o more than $30,000. it includes air travel to dubai, lodging, and both doses of the vaccine. in a statement the travel agency told us that remaining ethical is paramount to it. tony? >> all right. thank you very much. ahead, vlad duthiers will bring us the stories in "what to watch," all inauguration themed this morning. first,

she's 22 years odld, vlad. care to tell us what you were doing at 22. >> probably something silly and dumb. >> look where it got you. >> exactly. well, i'd say even now, i mean, what i did just this week doesn't compare -- >> i know it's true. >> she outshines us at her tender age. >> she's so wise, so interesting, so fascinating. she radiates -- >> brilliant. >> a dynamite writer to boot. >> exactly. wow. with that, tony, not able to live up to that. i'm going to try with the stories we think you'll be talking about today. for yesterday's inauguration, we want to highlight a few stories. one of them, capitol police officer eugene goodman escorting vice president kamala harris and her husband at yesterday's ceremony. goodman was named an acting deputy sergeant of arms ahead of the event. you remember goodman single handedly led an angry mob of rioters -- watch this -- away from the senate chamber after they broke into the capitol two

weeks ago. the reporting there is that the vice president and other members of the senate were just moments away from being confronted by that mob. officer goodman's a hero. >> he is. and i love the quiet service, as well. he's declined all interviews. doesn't want any attention. he's accepting the honor on inauguration day. that's it. >> yeah. >> we do hope he'll do an interview. >> we do. if you'd like to speak -- >> rujust saying. he looked so dapper in his coat. his name is goodman which you know is good man. he certainly is name -- his name matches what this man does. bravo to him. >> we salute you, officer goodman. another special moment that's going viral that didn't happen at the u.s. capitol -- watch this image. it's a lone person in a blue uniform kneeling at beau biden's grave in delaware with bowed head and clasped hands. this was as his father was set to tra to become president.

patricia talorico captured the moment saying it brought tears to her eyes. >> lovely photo. >> i hadn't seen that. >> we don't know much about the back story of this except apparently he was there through the entire speech. and she actually went back to check after it was over to see if he still was there, and he was. she said, some things in life you just let be. >> i was thinking the same thing. >> he walked away. >> i don't want to know the back story. the image is enough to tell me all that i need to know. >> so beautiful. >> i do want to know the back story. >> i'm curious, too. president biden said the day before was that his only regret was that beau was not taking the office because he thought he had presidential talent. >> the other thing that i noticed, he's the 46th president, and 46 was the age when beau died. i think there's something very poet nick that, too. let's talk about this, vice president kamala harris wore her signature piece of jewelry as she was sworn in. that pearl necklace is a nod to her sorority alpha kappa alpha. the founders andin corpsrators

of the first -- incorporrators of the first sorority are known as the 20 pearls. women took to twitter showing off their own pearls in honor of the vice president. two of vice president harris' sorority sisters tell us she is proof that a glass ceiling has been broken. >> it opens so many doors for especially like black girls like me to know that i can do anything. >> now this is not something that we can just dream of, right, and one day hope that it will come to pass. we're seeing it come to pass today. >> powerful moment indeed. the other thing that everybody, of course, is talking about, the prime time inauguration special, "celebrating america," featuring a string of a-list performers including john legend. watch this. ♪ you know how i feel river running free you know how i feel ♪ >> man, talk about a voice. ooh. legend belelted out t the covov nina simone's classic "feeling

hey, it's thursday, january 21st, 2021. i'm gale king. president biden is getting down to work after that big celebration yesterday. we'll talk to his new press secretary. left the fashion industry after groundbreaking work as a model and unicef ambassador. why her faith played a role in that decision in her first broadcast interview since she quit. in our more perfect series union, we talk with john fogerty helping us get through this painful moment in america. first, here is today's eye

opener at 8:00. all this pageantry shows the world how the peaceful transfer of power in america remains a powerful symbol of freedom and renewal. >> president biden urged americans to end what he called the uncivil war and spoke bluntly about all the problems wrapped up in it. in another sign of how things are changing, this morning the new white house chief adviser dr. anthony fauci addressed the world health organization. the pressure is on to quickly confirm the president's nominees and now the democrats have the advantage. this is where they do livestock shows and rodeos. but three times a week they drive people through to get them vaccinated. they would like to add a fourth and fifth day, but they don't have enough vaccines s to do it. it's not only the story here, but across the country. >> included a shoutout.

>> heck yeah. don't be fooled i'm still from the block. jack. >> i love how jennifer did that, though. because what she's saying according to my spanish friends. then he breaks into her let's get loud. i thought it was beautifully done. >> the impersonation of joe biden putting his hand on his hip and putting glasses on. >> well done. it is the first full day of the biden administration and that's where we begin after an inauguration focused on healing our divided nation. president joe biden was sworn in on a ceremony scaled back due to this pandemic with unprecedented security. in his inaugural address he pledged to heal the fractures in our society.

>> we must end this uncivil war that pits red against blue, rural versing urban and conserve tf ve ative versus liberal. we can do this if we open our souls instead of hardening our hearts. >> after arriving at the white house, the new president signed 17 executive actions. they include rejoining the paris climate accord and the world health organization, mandating masks on federal property and extending the pause on federal student loloan paymentnts. the e day e ended with a star-studded event called celebrating america at the lincoln memorial featuring a message from former presidents barack obama, bill clinton and george bush. in the end, the new president and first lady watched a fireworks display from the white house balcony as katy perry sang her hit song "firework." the biden administration

held its first white house press briefing. promises daily briefings that is a stark contrast which at one point went 300 days without one. vowed to be truthful and transparent and she joins us now from the white house north lawn. jen, good morning to you. >> good morning, tony. >> hopefully first of many appearances. >> we have a lot to get to but truthfulness and honesty. you say we both share the goal of providing accurate information to the american people, but the reality is a portion of the public, a meaningful portion that doesn't believe that and as mitch mcconnell said, they have been fed lies. so, how do you begin today to rebuild trust in our institutions? >> the best ant dote to false information is the truth and data and transparency and that's what we will venture to try to deliver on each day not just in the white house briefing from the briefing room but also from

this white house. so, we'll see if we can do it, but that certainly is our objective. i will say that the president himself is very committed to rebuilding trust. this is part of all of our objectives here part of my job as the press secretary and part of the policy team and the vice president job was the institutions the trust in them has been so frayed and trust in media and trust in government. it's going to take some time, though. it's not goeging to happen overnight. >> we'll leave it there for now. let's talk about the c covid pl overnight. it is described by some as maddeningly obvious and what detail can you put in what to expect rolling out a vaccine and providing enough vaccine for 100 million americans to get a dose in 100 days? >> well, he set a very ambitious goal, which you touched on which

is 100 million shots in the arms of americans in the first 100 days and some very clear steps that he is outlined to do exactly that and he'll talk more about them today. one is invoking the defense act because supply. we need more supply of not adjust the vaccines but the materials to get them in the arms of americans to effectively get this done. we'll have dr. fauci come to the briefing room today to talk more about it, as well. >> supply is a big part of this. defense production act would allow the federal government to take over factories and produce what is needed. are all the ingredients needed to be sourced around the world available to make more of the vaccines and speed them into people's bodies? >> well, as you note, a number of vaccines by the fda and abide by their guidelines here in the united states. there are more under consideration. as you also know. but one of the big challenges that we've seen is the ability to get the vaccines, the

medicine, the vaccines into the arms of americans, right. so, having the materials needed to get them out to communities and that has a range of different meanings. but really the physical manufactured supplies that are also important and not just the vaccine itself. also about getting to communities that don't have access to health care in an easy way and making it accessible and easy for people to go get the vaccine and know when to get it. i am sure you had calls from members of your family as have i. we need to do a better job about publicly communicating about it. >> another grandmother here in the united states that has not and it's a stark contrast. let's talk about the $1.9 trillion covid relief package. twice as large. joe biden knows the senate, kamala harris knows the senate. what conversations with republicans have begun to get this thing through? >> they already began those

conversations even before they both took the oath of office yesterday. those will continue to continue with speed in the days ahead now that they're having their first full day in office today, tony. the package was not designed to make it big and eye shocking with the size, it was designed because those are the key components needed to address the crises we're facing. money for vaccine distributions and allowing americans to apply for unemployment insurance for a longer period of time and money to reopen schools. what exactly are you going to cut from that bucket? it's all essential and all important in the moment we're facing in this country. >> jen, i want to talk about this moment. unity is on the table, a big part of the inaugural address but then on day one, just hours after that speech, 17 different executive actions rolled back significant parts of president trump's legacy. how do you square the push for unity with an aggressive push to undo what 75 million americans wanted to continue to be done,

they supported president trump. >> well, i'll say revoking the muslim ban. action taken by the prior administration i think that is helping to unify the country. and indicating to the american public that we are going to put climate change, address the climate crisis that is impacting communities, democrats, republicans, blue states, red states and helping people be healthy. that's going to help unify the public. you know, these are issues he took because he felt that immediate action was warranted. that we needed to take immediate steps in order to bring relief to the public. but he's also going to work with congress. he's already announced a number of packages on immigration and covid relief to do exactly that. these were steps that he felt were so imperative that he needed to take them on day one and he'll take more today on covid. >> hey, jen psaki it's gayle king. the presidential historian tweeted last night first press

secretary in four years. i wonder how long you intend to keep that going? >> nonweird. that's quite a description. i think i can achieve more than that, gayle, i hope. we're going to be briefing and i'm going to do the briefing monday through friday five days a week and bringing special guests and dr. fauci today and we want to introduce the diverse faces and voices that are leading all these efforts across government. we'll do that on a number of days. but, you know, my objective is to help rebuild trust with the public and i go into it every day with an understanding that there are healthy debates in there. that's the job of the media and my job is to kind of represent the views of the president. but that's what people should expect to see and that's healthy. that's part of our democracy. >> truth and transparency is a good start. we look forward to it.

society would end. that's what this means. it's a new beginning. and everybody needs to get off their high horse and reach out to their friends and neighbors and try to make it possible. >> so great to see the three former presidents actually showing their support for joe biden, saying we are here to support you. i remember thinking the night before, i couldn't sleep because i was worried. it was so tense, worried was it going to go okay, was anything going to happen. nothing had beened, it was safe. that -- nothing happened, it was safe. that was good to see. >> a nice display. >> please let it continue. former president bush there's a part two for this. former president bush talked about unity, reunited with former thread michelle obama at yesterday's inauguration. you know, the two have grown to be very close friends over the years is the word on the streets about the two. whenever they get together in these public events, she calls mr. bush her partner in crime at any major event where all the formers gather. and mrs. obama is making news

again with her ensemble. we're seeing a lot of praise on social media for yesterday's outfit. everybody was googling who is this? well, the head-to-toe plum ensemble is by sergio hudson, based in los angeles. it continues to be mrs. obama's tradition of promoting young black designers. i'm thinking how do we get sergio hudson's number? not everybody looks like michelle obama. >> no. >> but that outfit was perfection -- >> my daughter was talking about it. lot of -- lot of attention. >> who was she wearing, yeah. my story is about a former presidential candidate -- bernie sanders had an inauguration moment that's gotten a lot of love on social media. >> yeah. >> the vermont senator was seen at yesterday's ceremony sitting cross-legged in a beige parka, mittens, holding a mysterious envelope. the image of that seemingly unbothered senator has gone viral with people on social media adding captions like "this could have been an email," and "i am once again asking that you not talk to me at parties."

others photo-shopped him into scenes including the iron throne from "game of thrones," the bench in "forrest gump," and even a seat on the subway. >> that one is true to form. >> one of my favorites was shared by a band manager imagining sanders as a disgruntled merch seller at a concert. sanders' mittens have a sweet back story. he got them in 2016 as a gift from a vermont teacher, jen ellis, who made them out of repurposed wool and fleece. of course she did. ellis says seeing the senator wear them to the ceremony was particularly touching. >> ask yourself how often -- >> things from famous fashion designers to the inauguration, and there was bernie wearing mittens that i made in my craft room with a sewing machine that my mother gave to me when i was 12. >> i love that. >> i love it, too. >> i love that they're like 2-year-old mittens. how many mittens survive into a third winter? >> yep. i will say -- my favorite comment on the whole thing was

as somebody wrote in jewish yoga this pose is colon waiting for my wife at lohman's. >> i've seen husbands do that. >> a famous discount store in the northeast. -- >> during the show. >> let's look at what he said. >> people are loving your gloves. do you want to talk to us about your attire today, what you had in mind? >> you know, in vermont, we dress warm -- we know something about the cold. and we're not so concerned about good fashion. we want to keep warm. >> because there are all sorts of stuff on line about what is b-2s -- did he just shovel snow and decide to stop by. was he waiting in line at the post office? >> he looked like he was headed to the post office. >> holding a bus ticket or something. i think the gloves are stylish. >> in their own way. >> jen ellis says her email has been flooded. >> want the gloves. my "talk of the table" is about people who are going to be able to afford a lot of pair of

gloves. if you live in maryland -- mom, if you drove through and bought this ticket, please call me. it's a lottery ticket, one was sold in the county next to where my mother lives in maryland. >> wow. >> yep. single winner of the grand prize last night. it is worth $731 million. that is the fifth largest in u.s. lottery history. it was sold in allegheny county, northwestern maryland. i still remember when i was a kid my mom won $500 on a scratchup card, and she was dancing with lobster in the kitchen that night. bottle of wine. you know? it was wonderful. >> something tells me your mom -- i've met your mom, she would have called and said "guess what." >> she might have been passed out -- whoa. can't believe it. she'll call me in the morning. mom, if it's you, call me. i want to know. >> you want to know exactly what city was it sold in. we know allegheny county. somebody is doing the hula this morning. >> yeah. you may remember halima aden for her work as a pioneering model with several fashion

industry firsts. in 2016 the somali american became the first woman to wear a hijab the a state pageant. she was the first model in a hijab on the cover of "vogue ara arabia" and first to model a burkini in the swimsuit issue. in november she said she was walking away from the fashion world. what? and she was resigning as an ambassador for unicef. well, halima joins us now in her first broadcast interview since making that announcement. it's so good to see you again. i have to say i was surprised to hear this news. tell us about the back story. what were you thinking? what happened? maybe it's not a what happened -- >> yeah. >> maybe it's not a what happened. >> yeah. yeah. you know what, gayle, it's pandemic, i think like many people who have lost their jobs or are in that career change, i myself had to reassess my career. i had to rethink am i happy, am i content, and the truth is when i made the choice to pick faith

over fashion, mom over money, people over profit, that's when i became a true activist. you know, it wasn't when i was a unicef ambassador. it was when i chose to walk away from my career. >> you said at the time your career was seemingly on top, but you were not mentally happy. because you have been here before, and we were talking about your career. i have to say you did seem very happy about what you were doing and did seem to be enjoying it. what do you mean not mentally happy? >> i mean it took me -- like the first two years, i had full control over my hijab. i was the stylist. i was getting to pick what i wore. you know, i had my hijab written into the contract. in the last two years, i had less and less control over my image. obviously when you're a model, essentially you're a mannequin. my mother did not walk 12 days on foot from somalia to kenya for me to be a model, for me to walk on a runway. i am so much more than that. i'm excited to step back. you know, although i'm very grateful for all the

opportunities that were given to me, being a cover girl just wasn't what it was cracked up to be. and that's okay. >> what do you mean it wasn't cracked up -- little girls now pining to be on the cover of "vogue." what do you mean it without cracked out to be for you? >> for me i think i've always been about education and even when i was a unicef ambassador, you know, getting children's rights and education was at the forefront. so fashion robbed me -- i was supposed to graduate 2020, and my plan was to be valedictorian, top of the class. i was somebody who worked extremely hard. in 2016, you know, my modeling contract fell from the sky and into my lap. and it was just go, go, go. and because of the covid, because of the pandemic i slowed down. you know, covid shut down all the fashion runways. it shut down the city that never sleeps, new york. i hope you guys are rested. come to minnesota. >> i'm curious why you're also walking away there unicef. from what i've read, when you signed on to be a model you made a deal with your mom that you were going to do something with purpose, as well.

that's what unicef was all about. >> uh-huh. >> why are you walking away from both? >> because you know, i was photographed, i was a unicef baby. i was born and raise friday one of the largest refugee camps in kenya. and my childhood, you know, i can genuinely saying about photographed at my most hungry, my most vulnerable, at my most scared, it was not a good feeling. for me to grow up and become on the other side and join celebrities like selena gomez, pink, to becoming unicef ambassador, and then ironically to again be photographed at my most vulnerable, my most hungry, it was just -- life has thrown me this incredible journey that is so rare. but i'm ready to step back because it should be about children. it should be about education, not about unicef's personal brand. and that -- that is my fight with the unicef, it's stop photographing the world's most vulnerable children at their most hungry, at their most scared, at their most lonely, at their most -- just they need protection. and who's going to protect the

children from these very organizations that were made to protect them, that was made to help them? >> i know you talked often that your mom wasn't pleased. she must be doing the hula at your place now. what is your next chapter for you? >> you know, gayle, i don't quite know. but i'm 23 years old. and right now i'm sitting in gratefulness. i want to be grateful for everything and all this opportunity. like people don't -- where i come from, stories like this just never happen. so i'm excited to use this opportunity that was given to me to, you know, like do what i can for my community. and also pass the mic. it's time for me to be a mentor to young girls up and coming. >> you were certainly that. cheering you on. >> halima, thank you so much. >> thank you. ahead, our "a more perfect union" series talks to legendary singer/songwriter john fogerty about his powerful new music and spreading
