katie vance, his vice president, is a marine. they're excited for a new direction. >> now they all they all have their own style. it looks like melania has adopted donald trump style. yes she has. everyone is having so much fun. and then jd is doing the old ymca also for the audience at home. >> these men and women in uniform are having so much fun. they are dancing. they are celebrating their new commander in chief. it's a new day for america and america revival. >> that's what we're celebrating tonight. lisa. i wish every american could be in this room tonight. i know they are with us. >> they are with us in spirit and soul and we're with them. but this is the greatest day. it truly is a golden age. >> and sean, a vindication. wasn't that a great way to start his inaugural address today? i love that, amazing. >> it was amazing. >> i mean, it was getting depressing in this country between our borders and the economy. i mean, good grief, it was enough. >> it was like, let me get to work. i've got these executive orders and we're

it's going to be a golden age -- sandra: katie, final thought. >> usha vance along with the first ladynia trump. the tomb of the unknown soldier symbolizes the sacrifice of war in the past and modern day, and you mentioned pete hegseth, incoming defense secretary if he gets confirmed, you also saw the national security adviser, incoming, formerman michael waltz, also u.s. army veteran. they are veterans of the 9/11 generation. and with the backdrop of afghanistan of and how horrific and catastrophic that was and the demoralization of the military and the american gold star families and anyone who really has sun in the military who's -- someone in the military who served in afghanistan; what that did, there's a hot of damage there, and it's something that the current president, joe biden, who is leaving tomorrow never recovered from politically. and it's something that president donald trump has focused on as a result of what the consequences were for that. so there's some rebuilding to do with the morale of the military, and it's interesting the see the people he's brought into his adm

katy tur. heads up to jd vance. you might be needed to confirm pete hegseth for secretary of defense, after it seemed like hegseth was becoming a shoo in for confirmation, the chair of the senate armed services committee, republican roger wicker, indicated there could be three republicans now voting no. two just did. in the procedural round of voting, and one of them also issued a scathing statement on that no vote. hold tight. we're going to get you up to speed on whether this thing is going to pass or not. when it does, go to the full senate floor. there's also big moves being made behind the scenes on donald trump's policy agenda. he's signed a whole lot of executive orders, as you know, allocating a ton. >> of new powers. >> to enact his agenda. and now republican leaders are working to get him the money he needs to do all that. they're also working to find new ways to cut back, looking for so-called payoffs to cover president trump's desired tax breaks. think about imposing tariffs and getting rid of social wel

jd vance has indicated that this will make it smoother going through the senate, so that is the play here. go big or go home. katie: we have seen that play out and work or not work in other countries, like france and south korea dealing with political instability over budget. in brazil, currency assets tanked because of their fights. in the u.s. we have this red sweep unified government. doesn't make the u.s. different from those other countries? >> anything can go wrong. just because you have the seats. we saw that with the democrats, when they try to do bill back better, and they lost two members of -- in the senate of their own party, essentially forcing them to break it up into smaller pieces. republicans are saying we can do better than that, get the one big bill through. we will find out soon, but if i had to bet on it, from where i'm sitting right now i bet they pull off something close to what they are looking to do scarlet:. the question is always how you pay for all of these initiatives? through efficiency measures. do you see the do ge efficiency members paying for it? stephanie: this is a game and the

katie: good to speak with you. looking forward to checking in as we get deeper into 2025. coming up, paramount and cy vanceck at critics of their pending merger. details coming next. this is bloomberg. ♪ tim: let's talk media deals. paramount and cy vance responded to critics on the pending merger, arguing that the critical filings are defective and lack merit, showing that critics fail to show how they will be harmed by the deal and that some of the proposed measures are unconstitutional. paramount agreed to merge with sky dance back in july and it would make david ellison the controlling shareholder and ceo of paramount. taking a wider look into the world of entertainment, and the botts office, for the coming year with chris palmeri. i want to talk about the bots office in what's happening with paramount and sky dance. this deal really, as you know, just never ends. but, specifically, do critics have a problem with when it comes to this pending merger? >> there was a smattering of opponents. most notably is a group challenging them around partisan political groups, hence -- it tends to side with conserva

vance until he's done serving in office? >> so let me try to talk you off the ledge of this one a little bit, katie, and we'll see if it works. i think what the judge is doing here is he's trying to send a final message about the rule of law to a country that disregarded it when it voted to re-elect donald trump. and here's the technical legal skinny behind what he's doing. almost certainly if he had sentenced donald trump to custody and tried to incarcerate him, that sentence would have been suspended. and even if he imposed the conditions that we traditionally associate with a criminal conviction, fines or a term of probation and supervised release following pronouncement of sentence, those two would have been reversed on appeal by an appellate court because they would have infringed on the presidency. whether we like it or not, that's how the law would look. . by issuing this clean situation where he'll have the opportunity to lay out trump's conduct, to condemn it and explain why he isn't receiving a custodial sentence i think this is merchan trying to do the best he can in a difficult situation. and, you know, not for n

katie. now we're just in sourcing the labor to under come under, cut our own workforce in the united states. i talked about it, i did videos and segments on what j, the vance will never tell you that. is that those that said, you know, 7, they had 7000000 people of less than as wayland the last couple of years. and most of those people came to the united states desperate economically. and why? because of the sanctions that the united states economic kid man has imposed on venezuela and the whole point is to create pain in the populace. so they will have enough economic pain that they'll come together and then that through billions of dollars and see a money they will fall meant to revolution over throw the leader of that is way low . so then the united states can install a puppet. so then united states, economic had been in, corporations concealed their natural resources. you know, i tried talk to, well, i told my audience that there's more oil underneath that as well as, than there is in saudi arabia. and when i found out out, i knew that there was just a matter of time before we had to bring some democracy to venezuela because that's how they always do i
