5:30 pm
confirmed just tonight as secretary of state. >> pretty hard to miss the head of nearly every major tech company was at today's inauguration. what do you think that tells us about the relationship between the trump administration and the tech industry? >> reporter: yeah. it was striking to see a number of these ceos take some of the most exclusive seats in washington during the inaugural ceremony and luncheon that followed. that includes mark zuckerberg of meta who, as you know, ryan, has had a complicated relationship with president trump, especially after he was suspended from those social media platforms after the january 6th capitol attack in 2021. well, fast forward to now. meta donated around $1 million to the
5:31 pm
inaugural committee. we know that zuckerberg has had a private meeting with president trump and, you know, it's interesting to see how these tech leaders are trying to make amends and potentially work with a second trump administration. it's also striking to think back to last week when president biden in his -- former president biden in his farewell address was warning of the tech industrial complex and an oligarchy that was threatening democracy he said. >> definitely was a who's who of silicon valley. so within the last hour or so president trump signing pardons for thousands of his supporters who were convicted on charges related to the january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol. what can you tell us about that? >> reporter: yeah. president trump left capital one arena, headed straight to the oval office where he signed -- he continues to sign executive
5:32 pm
orders. that big one pardoning around 1,500 defendants convicted in the january 6th capitol attack, as we know, that was a campaign promise. notably, president trump did not mention january 6th or those defendants during his inaugural address, but then in later speeches went on to talk about january 6th. he criticized former speaker nancy pelosi, republicans who were on the january 6th committee, and he promised this large swath of pardons which tonight he made good on that campaign promise, signed that executive order. ryan, i can also tell you he just a short time ago signed another executive order declaring an energy emergency. we know that a key goal of the trump administration is to expand domestic energy
5:33 pm
production, expand drilling, and also take aim, reverse some of the biden era administration policies that were trying to promote clean energy and investment in clean or green tech. >> president trump very busy on day one. natalie brand live in washington, thanks for joining us. president trump also signed a series of executive orders on his first day to take action on immigration as well. it has been a signature issue for trump and helped get him elected. fresh off his inauguration, the senate passed a bill that would require federal authorities to detain migrants accused of theft and violent crimes. it could be a bill the president will likely sign, but here in the bay area the threat of federal action is creating fear in some communities. len ramirez is live in san jose with the details. len. >> reporter: ryan, there is a lot of fear in this community right now, especially among families with mixed status, that is, where a parent, a mother or father, is afraid that the government is
5:34 pm
literally going to come into their house and separate them from their children. immigrants and their supporters gathered on inauguration day for a show of solidarity, but they're afraid of what the incoming trump administration could do to their friends and family and are speaking out. one of the voices belongs to community organizer and elementary school volunteer, maria chavez, a mother of four who could be deported and separated from her u.s. born children. [ speaking in a global language ] >> reporter: she said she's going to continue to organize because her community and her family are sacred. [ speaking in a global language ] >> reporter: maria said the worst part of what's happening is the effect on her children, including a terrified 12-year-old son. [ speaking in a global language ] >> my son said he would hide me and would stay at home with me
5:35 pm
and help my older sister, who is 18 years old and goes to san jose state, bring them food. >> the fear is real for our community. >> reporter: she's the director of an organization that provides services to the immigrant community. >> we've been waiting for this day. we have done hundreds of know your rights. we've given out the red cards to our community, but we are afraid and what you saw today is the unity of a community that will stand up and speak their own truth. >> reporter: santa clara county officials were on hand to show their support and to remind the undocumented community that the sheriff's office is not a part of i.c.e. >> the policy basically states we will not cooperate. we will not give any type of aid to i.c.e. unless we absolutely have to and only in situations where there's criminal activity or criminal threat to our community. >> reporter: groups say they will continue to work with
5:36 pm
immigrants who qualify to help them get legal status. myra magana says the recent elections have prompted a spike in citizenship applications. >> there was a push to become a citizen and to have the power to vote and that's what it all is about. it's about voting and the power to change. >> reporter: and community groups have also been handing out these cards, yellow and red. these first came out in 2016 when donald trump was first elected to the presidency and they're back out again being handed around the community, yellow to report i.c.e. activity in the neighborhood and red if i.c.e. literally knocks on your door, what to do to assert your rights. even though people might not have legal status in this country, they're still entitled to protection under the constitution, including due process. >> len ramirez live in san jose, thank you. a new poll just released ahead of the inauguration finds a majority of americans support
5:37 pm
deporting undocumented immigrants as a general concept. the axios ipsos poll found 56% of americans support deporting immigrants in the country illegally, but that support drops significantly when you add specifics. 34% support deportations that involve separating families or sending people to country other than their countries of origin and just 38% support using active duty military to find and detain undocumented immigrants. up next, the fire that started last week in a monterey battery plant, coming up, the potential concerns surrounding the environment, including sea otters. california receiving $22 million to assist in the transition to evs, how that money will help drivers thinking about making the switch.

5:41 pm
toxic smoke tests show there is no health risk from the air quality. >> the air quality is good and that it's okay. the air is safe to breathe out there. >> evacuation orders have also been lifted and highway 1 has reopened, but that fire is raising concerns for those who make their home in the area, including sea otters. the otters live in the elkhorn slough reserve and are listed as a california endangered species. researchers are keeping a close eye on them as this fire continues to burn. >> they're a keystone species. they help protect the kelp beds offshore by consuming sea urchins and they help protect the seabeds here in the slough. so healthy sea otters mean a healthy environment. >> the elkhorn slough reserve has been closed until further notice. there are only about 3,000 sea otters left in california. today's inauguration was one of the few held indoors, how the weather has impacted ceremonies throughout our

5:45 pm
well, the cold weather in washington, d.c. pushed president trump's inauguration indoors, but this is not the first time mother nature has played a role in a president's swearing in. ten inches of snow fell in 1939 for president draft, seven inches of rain falling for fdr's inauguration and it was even colder for ronald reagan's inauguration, the last time the ceremony was moved indoors. >> yeah. i'd say it's wise to move that inauguration inside, much like president reagan. today with temperatures hovering in the lower 20s, it was a lot colder today. >> the wind chill made the temperature feel like 10 degrees in the d.c. area. let's check in with first alert meteorologist paul heggen. this morning in san francisco it was chilly, but nothing like that. >> no. it will be chilly the
5:46 pm
next couple mornings with cloud-free skies and winds. we'll drop down to close to freezing, but nothing close to what other parts of the country will be dealing with, including a lot of snow in the eastern two-thirds of the country. let's look at the satellite perspective here. no cloud cover really anywhere close to the bay area, a few clouds up to our north. the overall pattern keeping us dry has persisted over the past several weeks. we're on pace to have our third dryest january on record just because the area of high pressure that's kept us dry steering the storm track north has been locked in place. every once in a while it drifts a little closer, squeezes the atmosphere over the west coast and results in gusty offshore winds. we had those today. they're starting to die down, but it's a bigger concern for southern california. we'll talk more about that a little later on. first let's look where our temperatures stand. we have cloud-free skies across the bay area right now, beautiful post sunset sky
5:47 pm
looking towards the golden gate from salesforce tower, still in the 60s, 10 to 20 degrees warmer today than yesterday. 57 degrees is the cool spot now in livermore, not that cool and not even a hint of fog thanks to the offshore winds that are going to be weakening as we head through the rest of tonight. that's going to have an impact on how our temperatures behave through the overnight hours. we'll see temperatures dropping down into the neighborhood of freezing in a lot of locations. it won't be that cool around the bay, near 40 degrees, same for the coast, mid- to upper 30s in the santa clara valley, low 30s east of the oakland hills, 31 degrees in fairfield, exactly freezing in antioch and livermore by early tomorrow morning and subfreezing temperatures possible for the north bay, 31 degrees tomorrow morning in petaluma, 32 degrees in santa rosa, a cold start, not record setting. we'll make up for it. temperatures will be 2 to 6 degrees above average by tomorrow afternoon, mostly low to mid-60s. the cool spots on
5:48 pm
the map will get close to 60 degrees by tomorrow afternoon, low 60s east of the oakland hills and around the bay and temperatures in the santa clara valley reaching the mid-60s tomorrow afternoon, very similar temperatures wednesday and thursday, might be a couple degrees warmer. you'll notice a return of the haze on the horizon. the gusty winds today helped stir the atmosphere around and get rid of that smoke from wood burning stoves and fireplaces, but with calmer winds in place that will recollect on the horizon. air quality will be a mix of green and yellow dots, but more and more, we'll see yellow appearing on the map, moderate air quality. there's no rain to wash that stuff off the horizon. we'll be rain-free the next seven days and some of the long range data, while it's trying to bring some rain into southern california, doesn't show rain in the bay area until february. that would result in the third dryest january in the bay area. low to
