hello and thanks for watching. i'm matt pieper in new york, and this is "cbs news roundup." here are the top stories. on the eve of his inauguration president-elect donald trump promises to take swift action on a long list of campaign promises once he's in office. israel frees 90 palestinian prisoners in the west bank and hamas releases three israeli hostages from gaza as a fragile ceasefire takes hold. and some residents forced out by the los angeles wildfires are finally going home again. president-elect donald trump will take the oath of office in the capitol rotunda on monday. but on sunday night he held one last rally before becoming president again. he told the crowd he has a long list of executive actions that he's ready to sign. cbs's erika brown reports from washington. >> reporter: on the eve of his inauguration as the nation's 47th president donald trump held a victory rally before thousands of supporters. >> what a good feeling. we like winning, don't we, huh?

we're going to make our country greater than ever before. hello washington, and hello america. >> reporter: during the address trump brought billionaire elon musk on stage and the president-elect provided a glimpse into his plans for his second term at the white house. >> but starting tomorrow i will act with historic speed and strength and fix every single crisis facing our country. we have to do it. we're not going to have a country. >> reporter: the president-elect said he will visit los angeles on friday to survey the devastation of the catastrophic wildfires. >> we're praying for you all. we love you all. >> reporter: it is trump's first major speech in washington since january 6th, 2021 when he urged a crowd to go to the capitol to protest the results of the 2020 election. this time trump returns to the white house with a wide margin victory, and republican control of the house and senate. >> it's so exciting to be a part of history, to be a part of the republican history. i just -- i'm really looking forward to it. >> reporter: the president-elect's inauguration

will be held indoors at the capitol rotunda because of frigid weather sweeping across the nation. >> it'll be kind of like watching it at home. i was really hoping to be able to be outside and be part of that where you're actually with donald trump. >> reporter: trump closed out his rally dancing along as the village people performed "ymca," an anthem during his third run for president. erica brown, cbs news, washington. >> and cbs news will have extensive coverage of the presidential inauguration starting monday at 9:00 a.m. eastern right here on cbs. on our streaming channel cbs news 24/7 coverage begins at 6:00 a.m. so we will see you there. president biden meantime spent his final day in office in south carolina. the president toured the international african american museum in charleston where he gave what are likely to be his final public remarks as president. >> got to keep going. we owe it to all those who came before us. here on these waters. and all those who are going to

come after. folks, there's so much we can do. but we've got to stay involved. we've got to stay engaged. >> after their visit the president and first lady left for washington to prepare for monday's handover of power to president-elect donald trump. the popular social media app tiktok was back in service on sunday afternoon after trump promised to put on hold a congressional ban. tiktok stopped working for its 170 million american users late saturday night. that's because congress last year passed a law requiring tiktok's chinese owner to sell to a u.s. company by january 19th or be shut down. but it was back on line again just 14 hours later after trump said he will use an executive order to override the ban once he takes office. the first group of palestinian prisoners have been released from israeli custody as part of a fragile ceasefire deal between israel and hamas following 15 months of war. supporters flooded the streets in the occupied west bank to

welcome 90 palestinian prisoners who were set free early monday morning. as cbs's ramy inocencio reports from tel aviv, a few hours earlier the first three israeli hostages were set free from captivity in gaza. ramy? >> reporter: yes, and much of israel likely exhaled a collective sigh of relief. and we saw people let themselves smile and jump for joy after 15 months of war. now that those three hostages, who were held by hamas, are now free. their handover from hamas to the red cross happened at just about sunset in gaza city, and it was chaos. they were led by hamas militants and surrounded by a massive palestinian crowd. the three women are romin gonen, 24, abducted from the nova music festival. emily damari, 28, a british-israeli citizen. and doron steinbrecher, 31, a romainian-israeli citizen. now, all of them have turned a year older in their captivity.

it appeared they were able to walk on their own, which will be a relief to many who did fear their condition. they will still go through checkups and the long physical as well as psychological journey to try to reintegrate back into society. 30 more hostages are set for release in phase one. a handful every seven days. and that includes two americans. 65-year-old keith siegel and 36-year-old sagui dekel chen. the hope is this deal will hold for them all to be free too. ramy inocencio, cbs news, tel aviv. the l.a. county sheriff's department says more than 32,000 people in fire-ravaged people are still under evacuation orders. the california fires have killed at least 27 people and destroyed more than 12,000 structures. but as cbs's elise preston discovered, some residents whose homes survived the eaton and palisades fires are now being allowed back. >> reporter: weary residents are starting to return home. >> oh, i haven't been home in two weeks. i miss everything. i miss my whole life. but i'm lucky.

i have a house. >> reporter: the pacific palisades will need a massive rebuild, and friday los angeles mayor karen bass named a chief recovery officer to spearhead the effort where nearly 3,000 homes were lost. and california governor gavin newsom on friday temporarily banning the eviction of rental tenants who have opened their homes to people displaced by the fires. >> normally you put on this uniform and you're like i'm in rescue mode. >> reporter: when the deadly eaton fire broke out, rich de leon and other volunteers with the altadena mountain rescue jumped into action, helping people escape. >> it was terrible. the embers were blowing. it was like sideways rain except it was fire. >> reporter: while de leon spent the night helping others find safety, flames swallowed nearly 5,000 homes, including his. >> i mean, you just can't believe that this is your house. >> you lost pretty much everything. but you're still working. >> i am. >> you're still volunteering.

>> i am. >> why? >> because you debt to hang out with your friends and help people. >> reporter: despite an unimaginable personal loss, he's still living by the most golden of rules. doing unto others when they are most in need. >> it's beautiful here. it will be beautiful again. >> reporter: as these steps to recovery are being taken forecasters warn the l.a. area could see another round of santa ana winds early next week and wildfire danger could become critical again. elise preston, cbs news, altadena, california. and straight ahead here on "cbs news roundup," donald trump is about to complete the biggest political comeback in american political history. more on that when we return.

this is "cbs news roundup." i'm matt pieper in new york. in just a few short hours donald john trump will be sworn in as the 47th president of the united states. it caps what many consider the biggest political comeback in u.s. history. robert costa has a look back. >> reporter: four years ago donald and melania trump bid farewell. >> hopefully it's not a long-term good-bye, we'll see each other again. >> reporter: many in both parties believed trump was heading into a permanent political winter. especially after he sought to overturn the 2020 election. >> mike pence, i hope you're going to stand up for the good of our constitution and for the good of our country. and if you're not i'm going to be very disappointed in you. i will tell you right now. >> reporter: and a mob of his supporters attacked the capitol. >> usa! usa! >> good-bye. we love you. we will be back in some form.

>> reporter: but the 45th president saw the moment differently. as a pause. not an end. [ crowd chanting "usa" ] >> well, i want to thank you all very much. this is great. >> reporter: and now the trumps are back. >> to rescue our economy i will sign -- >> reporter: the soon-to-be 47th president is promising mass deportations, trade tariffs, tax cuts, and a smaller federal government. >> america has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate. >> i think it's going to be shock and awe. he's going to parade down pennsylvania avenue, swing those doors open at the oval office, and sign 100 or more executive orders that overturn the damage of the last four years. >> reporter: indiana's jim banks, a staunch trump ally in the house during the first term, was elected to the senate last

year. >> has he changed as a person at all, or is it the same trump? >> i don't think he's changed at all but i think he learned a lot of lessons. he's making it very clear to the republicans in the senate and the house we have a short window of time to get things done that we need to get done. that's a different attitude than 2017. there were a lot of things president trump wanted to accomplish in those first two years we never got around to. he's not going to miss the moment this time. >> you say, senator, he has a short window to get things done. is he effectively a lame duck? he can't run for re-election again. >> well, i would never call donald trump a lame duck. but the political reality is the midterms are right around the corner. >> reporter: getting congress to go along with his plans could be tricky. yes, trump has a bully pulpit. >> putin said that he wants to meet with me as soon as possible. >> reporter: to pressure world leaders, business titans and lawmakers. but the republican majorities are paper thin.

>> i am your warrior. i am your justice. i am your retribution. we will take care of it. >> reporter: trump's sense of vengeance also hovers, and critics worry nominees kash patel for fbi director and tulsi gabbard for director of national intelligence could upend institutions. >> what do you say to progressives, to democrats who still feel down about the election result? >> look, this is a very pivotal moment in american history, and you don't have the time to moan and groan. you don't have the time to live in despair. you've got to stand up. you've got to fight back. >> reporter: democrats and independents are adjusting to this new political reality. >> trump is a little bit crazy. but he's not stupid. >> reporter: and vermont senator bernie sanders, despite his many disagreements with trump, says he's keeping an open mind. >> we don't want to counter everything he's doing. there are things that he said

over the years that make sense to me. you want to lower the cost of prescription drugs in america, we'll work with you. >> reporter: for him the art of the deal persists. to a point. >> is trump's transactional nature an up or down? >> i think it's an up. but when you are going to sell out the american working class, which i suspect will be the case very often, we're going to oppose you vigorously. >> reporter: president biden in his farewell address gave democrats a playbook of sorts for how to define trump and his allies. >> an oligarchy is taking shape in america of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy. >> you used the term oligarchs to describe some of the allies of president trump. not a term we often hear in american politics. >> well, you know why i used the word oligarchy, bob? because it's true. >> cbs news will have extensive coverage of the presidential inauguration starting at 9:00 a.m. eastern. that'll include donald trump's swearing in, his inaugural

address and the parade to follow.

there were celebrations in gaza and on the streets of tel aviv as the long-awaited ceasefire between israel and hamas took hold. the bombs and missiles have stopped falling in gaza, and the first three israeli hostages have been released. elizabeth palmer reports on what comes next.

>> reporter: in gaza hamas and some of its supporters celebrated the ceasefire as a victory. but it has come at a devastating cost. amer al sultan, a cameraman for the bbc, learned his entire family had been killed in one of the very last airstrikes of this war. "right now the ceasefire doesn't matter to me," he told colleagues. "because everything in my life is gone. i have no one left." and nothing matters to the families of the hostages now except getting their loved ones back. for most, though, that's a long way off. this first phase of the agreement will only see about a third of them freed over the next six weeks. the release of the rest still has to be negotiated. >> he deserves this respect, of not having the body just rot away somewhere in gaza. >> reporter: udi goren's cousin tal haimi was killed on october 7th, and hamas terrorists took

his body into gaza. that made goren an activist, pressing israel's government to bring back all the hostages, both the living and the dead. the current deal, he worries, is very fragile. >> this is just moving on to the next phase of our struggle, and this might take months, and a lot can go wrong. everything can go wrong. >> reporter: the first hostage release in november of 2023 shows how it works when it goes right. hamas hands the captives over to the red cross inside gaza, and then the red cross takes them back into israel. israeli hospitals have special rooms ready now for the hostages about to be freed. gershon baskin is a former hostage negotiator. >> no one is going to come back normal psychologically and physically. they're going to be in really bad shape. when the israeli public sees the condition of the hostages coming

home, it's going to increase the pressure on the government to make sure that every hostage comes home. >> reporter: realistically, though, some will be buried forever in the wastes of gaza, along with thousands of palestinians lost in this war. >> elizabeth palmer reporting there.

inauguration outside. the event will now take place in the capitol rotunda. kris van cleave reports on the change in security procedures. >> reporter: moving things indoors makes it easier to secure the president, but it kicked off a scramble by law enforcement to secure a new plan. that includes the area around the capital one arena that will host around 20,000 people on monday. one of the big unanswered questions, where will everyone else go? we do know that by ground or by the air tens of thousands of officers will be watching. around 750 feet above the nation's capital the brand new state-of-the-art d.c. police helicopter will be in the sky over the inauguration. pilot jeff hertel. >> what are you going to be up looking for? >> the different crowd parameters and crowd control and suspicious vehicles maybe outside the perimeter area. larger trucks and stuff. make sure there's people with them. >> reporter: what does being up here give you that you don't have on the ground? >> the ability to see distances. like you can see a car running

fast. you can see like a rooftop at night to see if there's a burglar on top or if he has a weapon. >> reporter: while the swearing in will now happen inside the highly fortified and secured u.s. capitol, helicopters will be a key tool as the parade moves to the capital one arena in the heart of the city. they'll also be watching for crowds as many of those who would have gone to the national mall are now expected to gather somewhere around town. its on-board cameras can read a license plate from 1,000 feet up, sending back live video to the department's real-time crime center. >> it gives us the opportunity to really see what's happening across the city, especially in large crowds. >> reporter: d.c. police chief pamela smith. >> given some of the things we've seen play out since the start of this year, two vehicle-borne attacks, does that change how you prepare for protecting the inauguration? >> anytime there's i'll say homegrown domestic terrorism, it always makes us heighten our security efforts. >> what's keeping you up at night right now? >> the fact that there could be lone wolves out there, copy cass

that are out there. >> reporter: even with official events indoors d.c. police remain on high alert for violent protests outside the secured area. similar to those in 2017, where hundreds were arrested around president trump's first inauguration. eight years later expect more officers patrolling neighborhoods. >> we want people to come and protest, but we will not allow any type of violence in our stow. >> reporter: they're also concerned about -- you had 200,000-plus people who would have been on the mall. now perhaps looking for places to gather to watch the inauguration and perhaps mixing with some of those protesters. that's a bit of a wild card. but the chief stresses there are no credible threats against the district of columbia. >> kris van cleave reporting. "cbs news roundup" will be right back.
