thank you, paola ramos.trump, donald trump's nephew and author of all in the family the trumps and how we got this way. i just want to get your thoughts on all the things that we have seen today, including the pardon of 1500 insurrectionists and the commutation of six sentences, which would mean even some of the most violent insurrectionists have gotten a clean bill of health from your uncle today. >> well, thanks first, joy, for having me back on your show. >> i've been listening. just the spirit of what's been happening today and obviously just getting the news also about these, the news of the insurrectionists being pardoned and sentences commuted. i just want to add to your list of people who are living in fear, starting right now, a group of people that are very important to me and that i speak about very much in my book, caregivers for the disabled in this country, who are overwhelmingly from other countries who are mostly black. latino, they are going to be living in fear. and these are the people tha

msnbc contributor paola ramos.u here, because there's always tumult, and you do such an incredible job reporting on it. paola. but first, you know, it feels like when you talk about these mass deportations, blue states, sanctuary cities are going to be the target. can you tell me a little bit about the level of fear that you saw on the part of both migrants and the people who have been helping shelter those migrants inside new york city, right. >> you mentioned we end the piece on this idea of what are sanctuary cities now? and the first thing that comes to mind is eric adams on his way to go see trump. and then i think about floyd benefield. yeah. and i think if we zoom into that map now, you see this migrant tent city in brooklyn, a brooklyn where donald trump received 16,000 more votes in 2024 than in 2020. and then if you keep zooming in, you see that this migrant shelter is surrounded by pro-trump districts. and just to give people some context, these districts are literally just 20 minutes away from the statu

i think we have lost paola ramos. break in a few minutes, but that is air force one or, i think, air force two, perhaps getting ready to take. but donald trump's private plane emblazoned with the united states of america, taking him to washington, dc to begin the inauguration festivities. and we are going to take a little bit of a break, and we'll rejoin with our political panel to talk more about everything that is happening. but yes, this is the departure from mar-a-lago enroute to washington, dc. huge motorcade taking the president elect, the first lady elect and the first son on to washington, dc. >> are you overwhelmed with identity management in the context of omnipresent threats to your organization? hi. >> so no one knows what that means. >> what's happening? >> just explain. >> i want to help secure digital identity. keep it simple. >> like what? >> like when delivering a fresh uniform or viewing your results. >> yeah. it's bad. or making bread soon at the high school reunion. >> oh, i love that color. that w

joining me now is msnbc contributor paola ramos and conservative attorney george conway, president ofaw. george, your thoughts on not just the fact that donald trump might soon celebrate these folks in the white house, but that the way he chose to release them was that they got frustrated by trying to get his day one releases done on time. so they ended up saying, f it, release them all. they couldn't be bothered to go through them one by one to make sure they weren't releasing any people who beat the hell out of cops. now they get a tour. >> yeah, now they get a tour. i mean, it's. >> it's appalling. >> it is the most disgrace. >> it was the most. disgraceful end to one of. >> the most. >> disgraceful days. >> in american history. monday. >> and it's really. >> he's rewarding. >> these people. >> for their criminality. the first felon. >> of the united states. >> is rewarding criminals for. >> their criminal behavior on. >> capitol hill. their attempt. >> to overthrow the government for him. >> and you're absolutely right. this is going to be. >> january 6th, going to start. >> becom

joining us now, msnbc contributor paola ramos and peter baker, chief white house correspondent for the new york times and an msnbc political analyst. paola, you spent the day with one of the proud boys who was sentenced for his actions on january 6th. what did you what did he have to say? >> well, because first of all, i'm sure you recognize where i am right now. let me tell you that i'm in cafÉ versailles. cafe versailles is in the neighborhood of little havana, in miami, as you know. and i mentioned this visit because this is the neighborhood where enrique tarrio, the former chairman of the proud boys, and this is where he grew up, in this neighborhood in little havana, in miami. we just got an update from enrique tarrio family stating that enrique tarrio is scheduled to land here in the miami international airport at 3:05 p.m. from a southwest airlines. and as you mentioned, jose, yesterday, less than 24 hours ago, i was at a january 6th park and watch party that was organized by gabriel garcia, one of enrique dario's friends. now, gabriel garcia is also a proud boy. he's the son of

all right, still to come, msnbc's paola ramos has been following the trajectory of far right groups inrica for years. on trump's inauguration, she met up with a member of the proud boys. he once told her that he regretted his involvement in january 6th. you won't believe what he told her. the second that he received her. the second that he received his pardon.

paola ramos, thank you, my friend, for the important and essential reporting. you always do. you are a treasure. that is our show for tonight. now it is time for the last word with lawrence o'donnell and his very special interview with president biden. >> earlier this evening, president biden gave us his final interview as president of the united states. we were working with a tight time limit because the next thing on the president's schedule was a national security meeting. >> in fact, by the end of the interview, which president biden allowed to go well over the time limit. national security adviser jake sullivan was waiting for the president to leave, despite the extra time, we did not get to many of the questions that i spent days writing for this interview. the news cycle pays attention to president's public statements. >> history pays attention to their decisions. those decisions are not made in public. i went into the oval office today hoping to illuminate how this president made some of the most important decisions of his presidency, knowing that with the time limit,

paola ramos, thank you, my friend, for the important and essential reporting. you always do. you are a treasure. that is our show for tonight. way too early with ali. vitali is coming up next. >> look, the idea that we're going to be in a situation where. we could continue to have the chaos in the middle east without the running, the risk of starting a regional war is really, really not possible. and the idea that israel is going to be able to sustain itself for the long term without accommodating the palestinian question and their safety, their meaning, the safety of american jews. not possible. it's not going to happen. >> that was president biden last night, addressing the past week of negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage release deal between israel and hamas. the question is, will the israeli cabinet now approve the agreement? and also ahead, we'll have a recap of yesterday's confirmation hearings on capitol hill. the question is, how did nominee's answers compare to donald trump's own positions? plus, the supreme court could release its ruling today on the looming ba

and paola ramos, thank you for your brilliant reporting. thank you all. and that is tonight's reidout inside with jen psaki starts now. >> okay. >> let this sink in for a second. >> today started with the outgoing president, joe biden, who's still president at the time, obviously preemptively pardoning the people who investigated the january 6th attack on the capitol and the officers who defended the capitol that day. now, just a few hours later, the person who incited that attack took the oath of office for the second time in the very same building, the capitol, where the attack took place. and just moments ago, literally in the last 15 minutes in the oval office, which is a choice, trump issued pardons for approximately 1500 people convicted of crimes related to that attack and commuted the sentences of six others as well. and we're going to spend a lot of time talking about that through the course of this evening with a lot of people who know a lot about it, but but i want to catch you up just in case you're just tuning in to what happened today, becau
