7:01 pm
a massive security operation for the inauguration it was. a powerful blast ripped through a residential building in madrid killing at least 4 people and gas leak is suspected we hear from why would this is. that moment i knew we were working near the building we heard a massive explosion and we all ran outside to help people playing because we felt the walls vibrate and we thought it was in the university and when we went outside it was rubble in the street. from moscow you want your to international with me daniel hawkins were you are tonight's welcome to the program. that has officially now been sworn in as the 46th president of the united states bring to a close donald trump's 4 years in office and his speech biden called for unity at
7:02 pm
a quote historic time of crisis and challenge now ahead of the inauguration 200000 flags were placed on the national mall represent the crowds kept away from the ceremony due to the pandemic other safety measures don't relate to cope with the president and 25000 national guard troops are in washington to maintain security. and heidi was following the inauguration ceremony for us. in past inaugurations during i guess you say a normal inauguration there'd be hundreds of thousands if not more people behind me instead there are flags so obviously the coded pandemic we knew this was going to be a much scaled back and smaller and much more subdued affair because of the cove in 1000 pandemic but then add in what happened january 6th and the intense security the red zone through you know around the national mall and around the capitol that massive security perimeter of the 25000 national guard troops but nonetheless joseph r. biden giving a speech about a 20 minute speech a message underscoring unity in america perhaps one of the most divisive and
7:03 pm
divided times in this country's history saying that america or democracy is precious democracy is valuable this is a day about democracy not about the candidate and that despite the events on january 6th democracy has prevailed jennifer lopez saying also lady gaga you know sing the national anthem but you know it is it is obviously this is a much more scaled down affair and just getting here it was very intense you know getting through the city we had to go all the way around the perimeter we had to go through a coded testing site where they made sure that you know we were we were tested as far as those in attendance you know you have cabinet future cabinet officials you have the supreme court justices you have members of congress plus one they're only allowed to bring one guest usually members of congress would have a contingent of people that have basically a number of passes they could give out that wasn't the case this year so these are
7:04 pm
all things that are representative of the day which is you know nonetheless is a sunny sunny beautiful but cold and windy windy day. during his inauguration speech and said also america needs to confront what supremacy and an apparent reference the son trumps supporters of this all comes amid a climate overhauling charged language being used by both democrats and republicans against the shove a. host been sworn spoke to his porter goss' guests about hopes that it. the use of language is so important as a journalist i know words mean something and we constantly use language to to demonize and dehumanizing people on the other side it's leading us towards very drastic measures and i write about that are my overstating that no you're absolutely right listen the use of language is the most by which we communicate yes some of our communication modalities are non-verbal but we are a dialoguing animal and so to the extent that we can serve the meaning of words
7:05 pm
then we control the narrative and so let me give you an example rape used to mean that you know the reprehensible diabolical crime that it was i mean typically a male who you know a service is the right of a woman to have freedom of choice in terms of who she wishes to mate with but that wasn't enough so now we talk about things like visual rape right so if a man liers out a woman the wrong way well it might be reprehensible maybe you shouldn't do it but it's not a form of sexual assault but by altering the language such that someone who approaches you in a vulgar manner is engaging in linguistic rape someone who stares at you in a leering way is engaging in visual rape you create a new reality so of course language matters and you're exactly right that it's dangerous and to call your next door neighbor who is a white male who voted for trump the mystic terrorist is not going to result in
7:06 pm
good downstream effects and i always tell people there's only 2 options either we're going to resolve these issues peacefully through the battle of ideas or and 10152100 years we will resolve them violently is there something that needs to happen in terms of trying to find some form of unity from now former president trump or about to be former president trying to create a feeling of unity he has talked a lot about defending his supporters and protecting them but at the same time what could he do to say there's got to be a better way to treat these people and to not not just demonizing the but the humanize them. yes so i mean frankly i think the message of this unity. is not coming from trump it's coming from the incoming administration that strongly a spouses identity politics as a way to organize society identity politics by definition is the opposite of unity
7:07 pm
because it get allies us into tribes whether it be political tribes whether they be sexual orientation tries whether be skin color tribes it is the opposite of a unifying message or add a moment where there is such rage toward the losing side i don't think we've ever seen this happen before where rather than taking a victory lap rather than celebrating the win were seen almost like what you might call a sore winner is that is that how you would describe it. yeah well that the left is definitely projecting right that's what they get are classic projectors i like to say that projection is their game fascism or fascist is their name because that's exactly what they're doing what conservatives are currently experiencing here in america and really all around the world regardless of which you know nationalist or populist movement you may be a part of is just a full blown assault on behalf of the democrat party and their alliance with the
7:08 pm
tax social media and tyrants to eliminate any way start any opposition any any political dissent that's going to challenge you know the radical left agenda and so you're talking about your politics people have a reason to be scared one side is not allowed to speak and it's more than just not speaking is it not it's you don't have the right to speak and we're going to talk in your place in your stead about how you must be deprogrammed you must think differently if you don't change the way you think you should have a job you should be a lot of fly on airplanes you should be allowed to stay in hotels or air b.n. b. this is not a new phenomenon right this has been happening under the eyes and noses of lawmakers here in our country who have just decided to turn a blind eye to it because like you said it's easy for people to say well you know these things aren't happening or they can't happen on a bigger scale because you know maybe those people should have just found little
7:09 pm
quiet or you know maybe they were a bit too controversial but you know when you look at history and absolute horrors and acts of genocide and atrocities that happen this is the same behavior right that leads to it and this is exactly what happened in 1930 s. germany ok and a now president biden about president biden due to to assure people that hey we're not all in the me here and we don't have to be in a muse we don't have to continue that how does this growing animosity but tween us as chaos we can just come together as americans. that is an excellent question so i think in order to bring we have to honestly address what was the cause of so many trump supporters who may not have really been stopped for public events but they were stopped republican support drop them out of the follow what made them so excited they will follow everything that trumps it and there's a part of america that feels left behind for whatever reason they feel forgotten
7:10 pm
and if you know that neither the political parties back then and strong into that base in a considerable way i think to bring unity we need someone to talk to that base that there is talk of how do we deal with a troll supporters and deprogram them it's rather disconcerting at the same time it's not surprising when certain media avenues and certain people and even politicians have been convincing americans and other people around the world that donald trump was the 2nd coming of hitler that he was running concentration camps that he was going to genocide people that he's a white supremacist in a racist and all of this stuff and then a quarter of the country supports him 75000000 people voted for him if someone has been programmed to believe that then it's not entirely shocking nor surprising the way people are responding i think it was fairly easy to see it coming as i said at the same time it's extremely hypocritical one of the things that most one of the things that a lot of trouble opponents criticize donald trump for is that he is divisive and
7:11 pm
that he is polarizing and that he harms unity right so for people to say that and then at the same time be talking about you know reprogramming 75000000 americans or d. platforming them or trying to silence them or calling them you know nazis or nazi enablers all these very very you know inflaming terms it's extremely hypocritical because they're doing the exact same thing but actually far worse than what they complain that donald trump or even some of his supporters have been doing and it's weird how people can sort of see that blind spot due to their own political biases. i mean while biden is already fast that work implementing the new administration's agenda the president has signed 17 executive orders reversing some of trump's most controversial policies that includes undoing a travel ban on some muslim majority and african nations rejoining both apply
7:12 pm
a climate change of accord on the world health organization and despite such a promising beginning host chris hedges doubts the new president we're able to carry out that many changes in the domestic and foreign policies of the united states biden is a conservative he was picked by obama as a vice president because he essentially voted republican he is not a friend of the green new deal he doesn't support medicare for all universal health care e is a strong supporter of empire a fundamental structure of the american imperial power and corporate power at the heart of the american political system domestically will remain untouched i think that we have to acknowledge that the wide divide now within the american public still 40 or $50000000.00 trump supporters believe the election was stolen is not going to be addressed or healed in less these people are really integrated into the society which the biden ministration has no intention of doing and i think that
7:13 pm
there will be a particular target will be the left people who call these people out for who they are and they will play the game of the new cold war with russia in a way that the trumpet ministration did not now as biden takes the reins in washington he'll have to deal with a crisis of trust in the government the poll conducted of the filming of the capital found 4 out of 5 americans believe the u.s. is fooling apart a similar proportion of those they were still proud to be american reaction in texas and new york. i think there are real divisions and i think that comes from sort of i see caste system at least now. i mean there's there's a kind of political divides that are often sort of manufactured i think that through walk through things that happen at the capitol and yet i mean it's really easy to feel like they're going to be scolded for i would say that really not a good spot there has to be a lot of speed this country is going apart. you know that and then.
7:14 pm
serious everything you know about the president your 400000 individuals americans dying from 4 coronavirus you have millions of people unemployed you have a business is falling for bankruptcy your plate issues between the current president and the president coming it's not a very. it's a easy easy switch over i think it kind of what the current the new president biden is doing as far as trying to impeach steele trying to tell the president is kind of childish. with the inauguration and has of course been closely followed by media all over the world and after 4 years of critical coverage of the trump white house the narrative has seen an immediate see change those lights that are that are just shooting out from the lincoln memorial i look it's like almost extensions of joe biden's arms embracing america president elect joe biden and vice president harris
7:15 pm
told to grin instead of regret out of the privacy of our hearts if just for a moment so that we all could share it he doesn't keep a lot of things secret when it comes to his emotions and his and his family and his love for his family. media legal analyst a lot of joins me now life for more thanks for joining us the program today a lot of fanfare over the last few hours of the country clearly breathing a sigh of relief at the see the back of trump but how do you see this operation in light of the fact 74000000 americans also voted for trump on indeed many of them for election was allegedly stolen. i've instructed my family in the event i word to somehow ingest some poison and you rush me to an emergency room and you had to induce emesis vomiting for those at home if you don't have any syrup of ipecac please play today's media coverage because i
7:16 pm
think i would upchuck it was the worst saccharin just as ana dine nonsense the best of the best which you did not have in your little montage there was a fellow by the name of chris wallace who was on fox news facts news much which used to be considered conservative whatever that means and he said that he's been covering inaugurations since 1961 says j.f.k. ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country when we had stentorian oratory the only thing we have to fear is fear itself and chris wallace said with a straight face this was the best inaugural address he's ever heard. i'm in a parallel universe imagine every cliche everything you've ever heard thrown
7:17 pm
into a hat just pulled out and read and this this finding this almost. cult like it is incantations of the stage at the u. unity and what did he do within the 1st he went straight to the white house walked in and basically reversed a number of serious executive orders that president trump had such initially so in the day when he wanted to say we're all coming together we're all coming the other the 1st he does is give me that pen and there you go there's your unity and then by the way let me just say this we have a vice president kemal a harris. i don't even know what she's talking about she's. what are we the talk about her shoes her tennis shoes she worst chuck taylor don't
7:18 pm
converse tennis shoes and the new style and you abide can we talk about your kind of ice cream you like is that a puppy what kind of what breed is that i mean we went through 4 years of donald trump where the like him or not from the moment he even began to utter the words i'm going to run he had every intelligence agency i mean why do you tap and it was it just incredible i kid if anybody ever had any doubt as to how bought in sold this mainstream media are how they are the the apparatchiks the i guess the agents of the shadow government today was hit i mean it would trump's goodbye was i get down with it but joe biden this hercules in oratory where he said he wants to unite and not divide
7:19 pm
and then immediately starts talking about he said to have to white supremacy are i'm i'm still visibly shaken as you can see from this line of swerving away from from biden's 1st days there was a lot of speculation out of concern about how trump's presidency would end the security bill up in the lead to the to the ceremony what do you make of trump's final few days in office and indeed a very public historic snub of the now president bottom. not a fan of that at all sorry i was i. the president was in radio silence i don't understand i mean that i am because you know today when you say something that's not exactly a glowing praise of biden you think here's some trump shill or some lackey i've got to tell you something this is a guy who in the last couple of days he grant a pardon to little wayne and not julian assange to me i don't understand what
7:20 pm
he's doing he hasn't said anything and if the the the valedictory the finale did the snobs there's this is a man who had his chance to say i'm going to give you a legacy i'm going to be true chilean or reagan ask or j.f.k. jewish whatever adjective you want and instead he see came across to many people like a pouting petulant child so i was no fan of that either that's not the way to end a term at all so i'm not a fan of the valedictory the psion are the denouement and i'm surely not a fan of the introductory speech from president biden. the media you might say it's become as polarized as ever was the end of the trump president say much like the rest of country but what do you make of the coverage of
7:21 pm
quiet now he's in office i know you've noticed this this monumental change but do you think that's a sort of honeymoon period if it's going to wear off if things don't go on his way i mean he's facing a lot of challenges you know you you won't be able to know it. this is going to be the longest honeymoon you've ever seen that the honeymoon is the marriage i'm not even sure what that meant but it sounded good in my mind at least let me tell you something how how do you explain this the left the whatever you call these this orientation democrats their agent they're the people who do their bidding wars are the mainstream media and not only that if mainstream media doesn't do it you have social media that will absolutely pillory you that will destroy the followers and platforms working in concert for this apotheosis the beatification this
7:22 pm
canonization of st joe of biden the question we're going to ask who is and i've got to tell you something and you will never you'll never hear anybody say this but a lot of people who've been watching him as i have have been very concerned about his dare i say his senescence his dotage is mental acuity and as most of us know. problems with that don't get better don't improve with time you never hear one person ever talk about the oh and by the way hillary clinton today or yesterday or whatever because she's still trying to figure out was somebody acknowledge me she was sort of pod cast or something or they were nancy pelosi and what did she ask for a 911 commission to again determine russian involvement in what are you he won he won and let me remind everybody as well the senate is still determining whether they want to go
7:23 pm
through a senate impeachment to determine whether he to present should be convicted now get this it removed from an office that he's not in anymore he left it he's gone but they want to determine whether they should really remove him to make sure he has to run again this is this is crazy this is absolutely this is like a funhouse movie of these mirrors i can't this is i must be living in a parallel universe and it's the days that even over with. kid a badger 4 more years of this it's wild and what a time to be alive and sort of going to think in 4 years a lot of thanks for joining us that i hear naughty kids have you thank you sir. powerful explosion in central madrid has the story residential building owned by the catholic church at least 4 people have been killed and 11 injured i went as has
