of supporters packed into washington's capital one arena. topping the list, declaring an emergency at the southern border. >> 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. >> reporter: he also talked about attacking inflation, declaring an energy emergency, and taking back the panama canal and he described how he wants to be remembered when he leaves office. >> my proudest legacy will be that of a peacemaker and unifier. that's what i want to be, a peacemaker and a unifier. >> reporter: do you feel like the country needs to be unified? do you think there's still a lot of division? >> oh, absolutely. there is division, but we can unify around the flag, unify around the constitution. >> reporter: many traveled from out of state to be here for this moment. >> we're huge supporters of trump and he's done a lot for us and so this is the least i

could do. >> reporter: while the move indoors because of the extreme cold brought changes to the day, a raucous campaign atmosphere filled the arena celebrating president trump's return. supporters here who we've spoken to believe that president trump is more comfortable and experienced in washington this time around and will also get more done since republicans also control congress. back to you. >> and the senate just gave president trump his first member of the new cabinet, confirming marco rubio as secretary of state. some of the biggest tech ceos had prime seats at president trump's inauguration, most from bay area companies like apple's tim cook, meta's mark zuckerberg, and google's sundar pichai. they were all there sitting behind the new president. tesla ceo elon musk was also a big presence. he's

become one of trump's closest advisers. also there was openai ceo sam altman. he was recently appointed to san francisco mayor daniel lurie's transition team. the san francisco gop hosted a watch party for president trump's inauguration. about 100 people showed up at harry's bar in pac heights this morning. they had breakfast and people we talked to say they can't wait to see what's in store for the new administration. >> we're just excited to live in this era of somebody who believes in a dynamic united states, a dynamic economy and culture. >> i think overall it's a message of hope and unity for across the country. it's a message of we can return to our roots. we can celebrate entrepreneurs, celebrate the people that make our country great. >> people also gathered at manny's in the mission to watch trump's inauguration. the mood from the crowd was more quiet. one attendee told us there's a feeling of uncertainty amongst democrats

with the incoming administration. >> they look like they are lost, that they don't know what to do and i do know people around the same situation because of they still don't get it. it's a reality and it's coming for four years. coming up at 5:00, we'll have reaction from local leaders on today's presidential inauguration. before former president biden left d.c., he thanked his team and supporters at joint base andrews. he said he might be leaving office, but he is not leaving the fight. >> i hope to look back on these years, hope you look back on them, with the same pride i have of all you've done. it's been the honor of my life to serve as your president. i tell you what. the greater honor is being able to serve with all of you. >> the bidens will be spending time in southern california for a while with family. president trump overcame impeachments, criminal

indictments, and a pair of assassination attempts to regain the white house. this afternoon we're asking how americans feel about his return to power. cbs news director of elections and surveys anthony salvanto has the results of a new cbs news poll. >> reporter: ahead of donald trump's inaugural the cbs news poll finds there is majority optimism in the country about the next four years with donald trump as president. now put this in historical context, this 60% cbs news poll tracking presidents for many and look at how trump compares, a little more favorably than the last time he was inaugurated in 2017, a little more optimism there, but overall you see that optimism for presidents, while still positive, isn't as high as it used to be before our hyper partisan era. the other thing is what underpins that optimism? so much of it is about the economy. take a look at this. people rate the

economy now as majority bad, but they expect the economy in 2025 to be majority good and those economic expectations are a big part of why donald trump won in the first place. so maybe not a surprise there. specifically look at how a majority of trump's voters and a lot of americans overall expect his policies to get grocery prices to go down and then overall people, especially donald trump's voters, feeling like his policies will make them better off. so all about the economy there. and president trump is already taking action to try to crack down on immigration. coming up, his immediate plans for the southern border and how a bay area city is trying to push back.

a community in san jose is pushing back on president trump's threat of mass deportations. trump's deportation plan begins tomorrow. it's going to be targeting sanctuary cities that limit cooperation with federal immigration officials. earlier this month there were reports of i.c.e. raids in bakersfield in the central valley and meantime leaders in santa clara county are promising to support immigrant families regardless of legal status. they took to the podium insuring resources are available and promising to keep up the fight. >> we stand ready to take further actions as necessary to protect our residents from federal overreach and abuse. >> and san jose's undersheriff says the department will not be cooperating with federal deportation efforts unless it is a criminal matter. president trump is signing dozens of executive orders on

day one. he says his top priority is to declare a national emergency at the southern border. >> as commander in chief, i have no higher responsibility than to defend our country from threats and invasions and that is exactly what i am going to do. we will do it at a level that nobody's ever seen before. >> during his inauguration speech, the president promised to halt illegal entry into the u.s. he says he plans to send troops to the southern border to stop what he calls a "disastrous invasion of the country." the plan for mass deportations is also still in effect. the president plans to reinstate the remain in mexico policy that requires people seeking asylum in the u.s. to stay in mexico while their applications are pending and the president says he plans to designate drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. also the trump administration has ended cpb1. that is an app that had allowed

migrants to legally enter the u.s. and existing appointments scheduled through the app have now been canceled. today migrants in mexico waiting for their appointments got that message from the app. the move cuts off a key pathway for people who want to come to the country. homeland security officials said the app helped drive down migrant crossings by providing an orderly way to apply. with that option now gone and asylum restrictions in place, the border is seen as effectively shut down to asylum seekers. joining me to talk about all this is usf professor of law and migration studies and author of the book "humanizing immigration," bill ong hing. thanks for being with us today. i know you've spent extensive time at the border yourself. >> i have and it is disappointing these folks who have been waiting patiently who made appointments are now shut off from applying and these are folks that i've met time and time again. they're legitimate asylum seekers fleeing violence. >> from what you understand, is

that an accurate statement, that no more asylum opportunities actually exist as of right now? >> it sounds like it. it sounds like mr. trump is closing the border and not allowing anyone to come in. there will be lawsuits filed because the united states has international obligations to protect people who are fleeing persecution. so this is going to end up in court and the issue is whether or not we can stop people from applies something that we have an international obligation to permit. >> i know this is maybe out of your purview, but if you had to give advice to somebody who just had their appointment canceled at the border, what should you do now? >> yeah. well, find a safe place because the border is an unsafe location. one of the things that hasn't been mentioned that's important is that the remain in mexico policy depends on mexico. so mexico has to go along with this and the new president of

mexico has not been consulted by the trump administration. so i think we're going to see some tension here between our ally, mexico, and the united states because we need their cooperation. >> yeah. not only on that, but there's obviously the riff that's going to be coming with the gulf of america versus the gulf of mexico thing. so that relationship is not really getting on of to a very amicable start, i'm sure. the remain in mexico policy means hopefully mexico will allow you to stay? >> yeah. mexico isn't obliged to allow people to stay either. so if these people are caught between a rod and a hard place, if you will, i'm not sure what will happen to them. they may get deported from mexico. it's going to encourage more illegal immigration, people coming across the border illegally. these are folks who have been trying to come in an orderly fashion. so i think there's

going to be chaos at the border. >> yeah. let's talk about that because president trump has ordered more troops to go to the border now. we know there were already some troops there, but from your experience how do you think that will change things if there are more troops headed? >> well, the border's already militarized and this is going to make it even stronger enforced. there's a question of whether or not this is a national emergency. he's declared a national emergency. that's again going to be challenged in court and it's going to be interpreted eventually by the supreme court, whether or not this was what was intended, because normally the military is not supposed to work on domestic issues and therefore, it's whether or not the supreme court is going to allow this, but it's going to take months and months to litigate that issue. >> yeah. speaking of litigation, let's talk about this whole ending birthright citizenship. that by a lot of

interpretations would mean changing the constitution. is that even possible? >> it's very difficult to amend the constitution. under the 14th amendment if you are born in the united states and you are subject to the jurisdiction of the united states, then you're a citizen and that's what people who are born here get even if their parents are undocumented. mr. trump knows that. in order to get a constitutional amendment, you need two-thirds of congress and you need two-thirds of the states and that's just not going to happen. >> what else do you foresee coming down the line here over the next four years? >> well, of course, his big headline is mass deportation and i do think that he's going to be looking at so-called sanctuary cities like san francisco and chicago and new york and try to make an example. i think that i.c.e. is going to be using a list of folks that they have that are deportable, people that didn't show up for their hearings, for example, or people who have

been convicted of crimes that are deportable offenses. i.c.e. is going to go to those places of residence. they're going to do it with fanfare. they're going to do it in places of employment with a lot of fanfare and i think we'll see folks becoming very much afraid of even going out in public. >> we talked a little bit about the curtailing asylum and refugee admissions. you had mentioned the foreign influence in that and that america has a responsibility to take in some of these asylum seekers. do you think that other countries will sort of push back on these new policies? >> i do. see, i think that what we realize when we go to the border and interview people is that people are fleeing from all over the world to the u.s. southern border. we're still seen as a beacon of hope. so it's not just folks from central america and mexico trying to come across or

venezuela. we meet people from africa, from haiti, even from china and i think that, listen, all nations have a responsibility to help refugees, including the united states, and other countries like canada are doing pretty good and there are some parts of europe, although there's a division in europe as well, that are helpful. so i think that the solution to this is important countries coming together and solving the world refugee crisis in partnership and in collaboration. >> professor, always appreciate your perspective on that. trump's inauguration, of course, falling on martin luther king jr. day and caltrain continued a tradition with its mlk celebration train taking riders from san jose to san francisco followed by a march to honor dr. king.

>> i come here every year and i come here to keep the dream going, his legacy. >> yes, we honor and commemorate dr. king, but recognize that the choice is in our hands and we got to keep it moving forward. >> martin luther king jr. day is celebrated on the third monday of january every year. new san francisco mayor daniel lurie was also at today's event. the alameda county food bank honoring martin luther king jr. with its annual day of service, hundreds of volunteers bagged canned food and fresh produce to give to people who need it. it's described as the largest volunteer day in its 40-year history. our first alert weather now, it has been a chilly day around the bay and the wind has returned. parts of the area are under wind advisories until early tomorrow morning. our chief meteorologist paul heggen is here to talk about how long that's going to last. >> yeah. not that much longer

for the bay area. the bigger concern isagain southern california where the offshore winds resulting in critical fire weather conditions once again. we'll look at the big picture and turn on the wind arrows. it is another offshore wind event as the atmosphere gets squeezed between a big hill of air camped off out the coast and a storm system making its way through the great basin. the offshore wind is of primary concern in southern california the next few days. they have red flag warnings in effect until tomorrow, fire weather watches continuing beyond that into thursday. it's not the only active weather across the country. let's go farther east and all the pink and purple are winter weather advisories and winter storm warnings in effect all the way down to the gulf coast. this is unusual. some of these spots haven't been under these types of advisories in over ten years. it's an unusually cold air mass that's driven all the way to the south resulting in snow that is going to fall in places like houston and new orleans as we head through the next 24 hours or so, 4 to 6

inches of snow in places like houston and new orleans. it's going to bring those cities to a halt over the next about 24 hours or so. as we go farther down the line here, we'll try to wind the clock forward from 7:00 a.m. tomorrow through 7:00 p.m. that system will continue farther and farther east. here we go, animating all the snow along the coast. the warm part of the system is way out over the gulf of mexico. this will be an unusual and major story across the country. in our neck of the woods, we're just see the breeze gradually dying down through the rest of tonight. the offshore wind has county skies clear across the bay area today, no fog visible as we look outside now from the salesforce tower looking north towards the golden gate. 60s across most of the bay area, 10 to 20 degrees warmer than we were yesterday, even in the upper 60s in san jose and santa rosa, flirting with 70 degrees. the offshore wind is going to keep our skies clear through the rest of tonight. temperatures will dip down into the 30s. it's going to be chilly to begin the day, below

freezing around petaluma, at freezing for santa rosa, 30s along the coast of bodega bay. inland temperatures are within a few degrees of freezing and around the bay and along the coast dipping down to around 40 degrees. with clear skies overhead we'll warm up, temperatures up to the low to mid-60s in the santa clara valley, most of the bay area in the low to mid-60s, a couple spots along the coast in the upper 50s. very similar temperatures are in store the rest of this week, might warm up a bit more by wednesday and thursday. some of the warmest spot will be in the upper 60s by the middle of the week. in terms of rain chances headed our way, there aren't any. as the dry weather sticks around, air quality will become more of a concern. we had good air quality today, but it's going to reappear especially inland tomorrow. i don't think our air quality getting worse to

the moderate category, but the next seven days completely rain-free. looks like we might get into early february before the next rain chance heads our way. let's look at the seven-day forecast and we will just do one seven-day forecast for the entire bay area because everybody has the same temperature pattern, low to mid-60s through the end of the abbreviated post holiday workweek and temperatures back down to the mid-and upper 50s for the
