vice president-elect kamala harris and her husband doug imhoff spent martin luther king day volunteeringice in the community. they spent their monday in washington preparing bags of food for families in need. the vice president-elect said the commitment to serve others and fight against injustice are important parts of dr. king's legacy. >> when we look at where we are in the country today, when we look at recent events, we know that a fight dr. king engaged in is still a fight in america, just to recognize the connections and our connection for responsibility and addressing injustices. >> it won't just be the united states. the eyes of the world will be on washington wednesday as joe biden is sworn in as the 46th president. and world leaders are getting ready to work with the biden administration after a tumultuous four years of the trump presidency. nic robertson has more now from london. good to see you, nic. what are the expectations and how long do some international leaders think it will take to restore relations with the u.s. to where they were before donald trump was president? >

inc chrisette met doug imhoff when she needed legal advice in 2015. >> we were so impressed with him. of the hour, yeah, you seem pretty cool, i might want to set you up with somebody. kamala harris. the attorney general? she said, yeah. i think you'd be great. >> you texted me that same night, you were at a lakers game. >> i was. >> i'm a warriors fan but i said, go kobe, or something. then, yeah you called me that morning, the next morning. >> i violated every rule of dating, i believe i leave this long, ram bleak voice mail. ended the call. from what i remember, that scene in "swingers." >> you should call me tomorrow, or in two days, or whatever, anyway -- >> that was me in the voice mail. i thought i'd never hear from her. >> reporter: harris had a break in her schedule and called him. >> we ended up talking for like 45 minutes to an hour and just laughing the whole time. >> reporter: a couple of days later, their first date. >> it felt like we had known each other, and i didn't want it to end. and so the next morning, i pulled the move of emailing her with my availabilities for

you're hearing republican lawmakers on capitol hill acknowledge that, and senator imhoff said today in an interview just a few hours ago that he had spoken to vice president pence, and that pence had been upset with what the president had been saying. that seems mild given the events that happened today, but for the vice president to say something like that is a notable departure from where their relationship has been. you saw the president on one of his final days in office be abandoned by top allies in the republican party. his deputy national security adviser resigning in protest over how he responded to this today, and other people considering doing so. so i think that speaks more to the president's legacy than a lot else over the last four years can really. >> 357,000 deaths. >> yes, and counting. kaitlan collins thank you very much for burning the midnight oil with us here. i'm chris cuomo along with don lemon, thursday morning, just moments ago, history, congress has officially certified joe biden's electoral college victory. now, president trump is saying there will be an order

i'm sure doug imhoff was the last last call. , her husband. there is no doubt that maya and kamala harris are incredibly close, trust one another, compete with one another sometimes like sisters compete. but that they are very good friends and very close. >> will also take a minute, doug hoff, the harris' has been on the second gentleman. i wonder what role you see him playing. obviously my and kamala grew up together they were sisters. but i think if i remember correctly from your book, doug and kamala did not meet until 2,132,014. they're raising two kids he's more recent addition to her life. so what sort of role do you think he will play a second gentleman and someone who harris talks to about policymaking things and looks to for advice. >> i have met doug m half a couple of times he seems like a great guy. i know people hit in los angeles who know him is a century attorney's managing partner is l.a. offices of two major law firms, entertainment lawyer. people in l.a. century city is full of a lot of really good lawyers. and he was one of

even, i have to say, if you come from a broken home, to look up at vice president harris and doug imhoffding up there together, i think, is reassuring to people. there was a lot to look at. aside from politics, that made people feel belonged yesterday. >> i absolutely -- i think part of it is representation matters, but i think that the way that they showed up. i think they showed up in a space -- because i don't think it's just a fact around the gender and race, but the way they showed up. they showed up strong and bold and with love and with light. that makes a difference. how you show up, you know, representation matters , the message matters, but also the messenger. i think their posturing and their offering, and what they saw, that makes a difference as well. so, yes, there were many black browns and black girls and asian girls that saw this young woman operating her gift s. so while her representation certainly made a difference, seeing her operate in her gift certainly has an impact, as well. >> operate is one way to put it. dominate is another. it was extraordinary. natasha, than

republicans like oklahoma senator jim imhoff, calling it a violation of my oath of office.mally this joint session would be a quick affair filled with pomp and circumstance but with these republican challenges, this could end up stretching late into the night, perhaps even into the early morning hours of tomorrow, but given all the false claims the president keeps making we have to keep saying this. the result in the end will be the same as it was since the election was declared more than two months ago. george, donald trump lost. joe biden won. >> that's right. this is all performance art today in the senate. >>> let's bring in chris christie and rahm emanuel and rahm, the senate races in georgia, raphael warnock, the winner, jon ossoff in the lead right now. so much at stake for president-elect joe biden if they get that senate control. >> well, a lot is at stake for joe biden, but more importantly, a lot is at stake for people who joe biden wants to help with investments and climate change, infrastructure, job training. it is because in the senate if you have the gavel,

have been given by the white house and we will have the vice president—elect, kamala harris and doug imhoffnary scene as we watch power in washington, power in america is shifting. it is shifting from the left—hand side of your screen to the right—hand side of your screen. it is shifting from donald trump who is leaving office, defeated as a one—time president, tojoe biden who has, on his third attempt for the us presidency, who will finally be taking the oath of office as the oldest president ever in american history. and he will have a vice president who is also making history as the first woman and the first person of colour also as a vice president. stephanie rawlings blake, former mayor of baltimore, joins us now. 0ne second, because there is donald trump. we were talking about a split screen. melania has changed. she left washington in black. she pays close attention to her clothes. she left in a sombre outfit and has arrived in florida in a suitably sunny dress. perhaps no secret that melania trump is happy to believe in washington. she was never particularly keen to take up her posi
