there will be some remarks by various people, but not biden or harris. evante themselves with president trump because he's no longer in power and no longer on twitter. but the incentive structure that rewards bad behavior, president biden acknowledged this in his inaugural address when he said, quote, recent weeks and months have taught us a painful lesson. there is truth and there are lies. lies told for power and for profit, he's obviously referring there to the lies about the election, lies that were told by trump to hold onto power, and by his supporters in congress, but also in maga media on certain other cable channels. that incentive structure has not gone away, evan. >> yeah. and you know, that is, of course, going to be the fact of our lives. we're at the beginning of this process. we are not by any means through the woods. you know, we are in the midst of the dark winter, as he put it, and that applies not only to covid, it applies to the culture of the war on truth which we are contending with right now. and it is incumbent on all of us, those of u

dwight evans, you have a new congress, you are in charge, you've got the president, you've got the house again. 50-50, vice president harrisl give that important vote in the senate. what is your team needing to do to affect policy? dwight evans: first, good morning to you. i think that what we need to do is attempt to bring people together within the congress. i think that with president biden and vice president harris, the attempt to bring people together would be much advised. there is a joint connection between that and the economy coming back. i believe that president biden and vice president harris will demonstrate that type of leadership, so first off, with the vaccine distribution, labeling the initiative -- they will end the initiative that the president has put forward, the distribution of the vaccine which i think is very essential. the second part of it is dealing with the economy. dealing with the economy in terms of small businesses, investing in infrastructure, schools reopening. and the president, as he stated, is basically attempting to deal with both sides of the democrats and republicans. tom: congressman

harris family. a new beginning. evansting what you said about not only the significance of this church but also the significance of faith for joe biden throughout his life at key moments in his life. >> yeah. and at the worst moments. look, after the death of his late wife neilia hunter and his daughter in 1972, he said at that time, look, i had been raised on the scriptures and i could not find the answers in there. and one of the -- he actually went and said to the bishops, i don't know what to do. in fact, he went to the senate and said, i don't know if i can take my seat. i don't know if i have it in me. and the senate, there were these older members of the senate who said -- some of whom suffered terrible tragedies in their lives and they said the way you'll get through this is by throwing yourself into your work, by giving yourself a sense of purpose, a reason to get up every day. and you don't have the luxury of failing because you have these two boys at home and you have to succeed for them. he went off to the se

evan, thank you very much. now to our chief political sw correspondent. harry, how likely is it that trump could face charges here? obviously this all happened because of him, people believing the lies that he put out. he said we are going to walk down to the capitol and continued to say you will never take back your country with weakness. what are the chances of charges? >> they are serious. look. you have to see the episode as a whole. when you look at the protesters. whether they were serious insurrectionists, that is how you judge the top dog here who is trump. the acting u.s. attorney is making announcements that we should consider them as place holders. nothing that he does will in any way tie the hands of merrick garland when he comes in. he will be the one that rationalizes the entire episode and decides whether in fact trump deserves charges. it would be tough to go hard on all of the protesters and give a pass to the people that fermented the insurrection. once he does there are many considerations that will come in to play. they have to give them a h

evan, thank you for that report. >>> "vogue" in hot water as vice president-elect kamala harris's team said they were blindsided by change made to the magazine's february cover. a source says this is the image that harris and "vogue" agreed to for the cover. "vogue" instead went with this image for its print edition causing an uproar when it leaked over the weekend. the magazine in a statement said they felt, quote, the more informal image captured vice president-elect harris's nature. vogue plans to use both in its digital version. >>> let's take a look at markets around the world. markets in japan close for a holiday. european shares are an opener. it was record highs last week for stocks but here is your daily reminder wall street is not main street. a disappointing jobs report served as a reminder for the work ahead for the incoming biden administration. 140,000 jobs are lost in december, the first net jobs loss in april. women accounted for all of the job losses when you dig deep losing 156,000 net jobs while men gained 16,000. these are net numbers, of course. there are men who did lose their jobs in decembe
