the comic initial appearance by sean spicer in the briefing room.ry in the headlights in a now famous cheap suit. the first time we ever learned that trump's people were, in fact, willing to say whatever he wanted them to say. then came trump's obscene appearance at cia headquarters bragging about crowd size in front of the wall that honors the dead. but, of course, there was something else that day, something historic. the women's march, the day humanity decided to push back. 500,000 peaceful people in washington, huge crowds in cities and towns across our country and around the world for that matter. and on that day, a song emerged, co-written by a survivor of sexual abuse. it was rehearsed on skype across the country mostly among complete strangers, then shared with d.c. area a cappella groups. they sang it when they all got together for the first time at the march. it had the added power of being starkly beautiful as we get to hear again tonight. ♪ i can't keep quiet ♪ >> no, no, i can't keep quiet ♪ ♪ no, no, no, oh, one more ♪ ♪ i can't keep q

sean spicer didn't go out there because sean spicer was worried about the tweets around the photographsize, he was told to go out there by his boss, and lie to the american people. right. and so that was a direct descendant of how donald trump viewed the working press, the briefing room, and really the normalities of government. joe biden has been part of this machinery and process for 47 years. and so he understands how that room works. and, look, if that room works well, it actually serves the administration in a big way. it helps get that message out. it helps make the case to the american people of why you're doing the things you're doing. and i can assure you in a time of crisis, they will need that room and they will need the person behind that podium to be able to deliver a truthful message and have the people in that room believe it. >> and with that, jen psaki, the new press secretary for the 46th president of the united states, as she delivers her first briefing. let's listen in. >> good evening, everyone. thank you for joining us on this historic day. it is an honor to be her

welcome as you say, laura, sean - as you say, laura, sean spicer�*s first press conference was dominated size of the crowd with him and martian journalists and telling them off for not having a crowd size right. that ended up a crowd size right. that ended up not being true. he ended up telling what was later called alternative facts in that press conference. we have just heard joe biden, the new president, saying that he wants to bring becky since he and his administration, and as he was swearing in around 100 white house staff saying that if he hears them disrespecting people, if he hears them talking to people in a way that is not honourable, and he will stack them on the spot. i would imagine that in terms of the tone that she takes, that will be a difference that you will see. joe biden the new president did say that that would be a change from the last four years. we would be a change from the last four yew-— four years. we can see pictures ofthe four years. we can see pictures of the white — four years. we can see pictures of the white house _ four years. we can see pictures of th

lots of journalists - not lots of journalists omitting about not lots ofjournalists omitting about sean spicert first press secretary and his first press conference, very different, he was shouting atjournalists, telling them off and calling them alternative facts —— telling alternative facts, as they related called, about the size of the inauguration. jen psaki saying that truth and transparency is crucial to the biden administration. they said they will be giving journalists packs with information that they were outlining in that briefing so they could take them away and examine them, and also as you heard in that clip, they said they were having daily briefings monday to friday and bringing in those experts as well, those briefings with health experts on the coronavirus. i was fined the questions that come after these briefings really interesting. jen psaki was asked whether her loyalty is going to be telling the press what the president wants us to hear or giving the truth that the american public needs to hear. she kind of dodged that question a little bit but really overall a very differ

and that is the media in the press room and how they handled jen psaki versus kayleigh mcenany or sean spicer. here is the contrast. watch here. >> is it your intention to always tell the truth from that podium? >> how does president biden plans -- give us one, two or three legislative things he wants to get not executive legislation. >> can you give us color what is life for him going into the oval office? >> the contrast is obvious. easy like shooting fish in a barrel, right? this is the give and take that is likely to be forecast in these briefings. do they get tougher or not? >> well, we shall see. i mean, you know, the biden administration, to dana's point, the honeymoon. i think it will get into heavy water pretty quickly with what is probably going to happen at the southern border with mexico as some of these caravans come north. and if you wanted a real look into the difference between sentiment, which is what some of the white house reporters are now trafficking in and having your heart in the right place about issues like climate and immigration, mayorkas in his confirmation hearing

i don't think there's going to be a sean spicer cleanup job for any of the people who stayed this latethe administration. if you're still here six days from now, you'll have to deal with this taint six years from now. >> i would do anything to see jared on "dancing with the stars." thank you both. >>> president trump is likely packing up. stacks every empty boxes were deliver to the white house grounds and a moving truck was supported a short time ago. we'll talk about the incoming biden administration, next. inc biden administration, next hold the phone in front of you. how's that? get...get mom.

i was there when sean spicer came out to the briefing room and talked about the crowds and tried to make the case he had the largest crowds ever. period. it was so strike l. that really set the tone for the rest of the trump administration. what we would see from those press briefings which is that you would ask questions and you wouldn't necessarily get spin. you would get answers that didn't square with the truth. what we are seeing now is, i think, the incoming administration, the new president and the new vice president having a reset as it relates to that. brian, to your point, they are getting to work today. they are going to sign 15 executive actions. president biden will that will relate to the myriad of challenges that he's facfacing. the myriad of crisis he's facing. getting more testing for covid, rolling back some of president trump's most controversial policies including the ban on travel for muslim majority countries and passing a number of executive actions that deal with racial inequality in this country. of course, president biden speaking to that point at the top of his

an early moment from sean spicer where he came out on the second day where he said we had the biggestbut if you fast forward four years we got the big lie, that donald trump has won the election, which led to a revolt at the capitol and the death of five people. >> yeah. and, you know, the big lie is the product of myriad small lies that have been told over four years, or five if you count the campaign. and i think one of the central principles of authoritarianism is lawlessness, the leader feels he's above the law and not be-holden to the truth and lying is part of this prevailing over the truth, imposing your will and your fictional reality. so i think that pushing back in the name of accountability and transparency and decency as biden started to do, to speak to your former point, i think, you know, we do need -- the lesson of authoritarianism is all these guys started out testing the system. donald trump told us he could shoot someone and not lose any followers so you have to push back vigorously. but biden also has empathy, and we need to temper that, you know, bellicose masculin

if they hire somebody, sean spicer, shouldn't they decide who they put on their team?n opinion, that is an opinion. he has his opinion. i have my opinion. that is diversity. in terms of a hollywood blacklist and the like that is not going to be practiced today and shouldn't of been practiced in the 1950s and we need this diverse city where people put it out there. he wants to go after people, he may want to do that, i don't. others have opinions and that is the diversity we need more of, not less. we put it out there. other organizations try to cover it up. we don't. it is all out there. diverse opinions, got to defend the free amendment. brian: sounds like you are on different pages but what you are talking about is we are at a transition point in our company -- our country and joe biden talks about so many members of congress, talking about bringing the country to gather and uniting and you have this guy saying we should unite. what happened last week was terrible. at the same time don't ever let these people work. >> in terms of cancel culture he said in his op-ed t

sean spicers telling us that is the biggest crowd ever. kelly an conway. huckabee sanders. kayleigh mcenany. every time she opens her mouth. not every time but. people who are paid by the government and telling things that are not true, we put out a product of reliable information wherever they go. again, anybody, you know, this is not cancel culture. there is free work wherever they are. i wish them luck b. but they show they cannot be trusted for private companies to take the information they give. it is putting folks on notice, we are a private company. we believe in truth. the entire country needs a regimen where we agree on facts. and people who don't respect that need to understand that's how it will be going forward. . >> you know your industry much better than i do. during the rise of hitler -- by the way, we can draw the analogies. as far as we can talk about this being 1933. we can do that. a lot of businesses, german corporations saw hitler as a clown. they backed him because they thought he was going to be a bulwark against communism, against the rise of communi

according to bob woodward's book, he grew so tired of being asked to appear that he threatened to send sean spicer to afghanistan. can you commit to following in the footsteps of your predecessors and regularly appearing on tv to explain to americans where the administration asked servicemembers to risk their lives and why? >> i understand and appreciate the role that the secretary had and communicating with the american public. you have my commitment that i will establish a good relationship with the media and provide them access and information required to do their job and reporting out to the american people. >> thank you mr. austin and mr. chairman. >> thank you, senator joe legrand. >> congratulations, general, on your nomination and thank you for your appearance and your decades in military service. i must announce that i oppose the waiver of the seven year cooling off period. my decision reflects notot at al on you personally or the record but rather congress should no longer grant such waivers at all. i supported it for general matus with reservations four years ago which i quickly came to

sean spicer brought into this debate about how big the crowd was for the 2016 inauguration.rted from there and snowballed and it really never stopped. >> sandra: the president not attending the inauguration, as john roberts brought to us. earlier, the historical context. trump is the fourth president to not attend his successors inauguration. john adams, john quincy adams, andreandrew jackson. it's not unprecedented. it hasn't happened since 1873 through the nose will continue -- the news will continue. >> this is a fox news alert. president trump is condemning the capitol building siege and calling for healing across the nation. as he continues to face sharp criticism over the chaos wednesday following a speech where he disputed election results. the president is calling the violence unacceptable and promising know a peaceful transition of power. watch. >> the demonstrators who infiltrated the capital have defiled the seed of american democracy. to those who engaged in the acts of violence and destruction, you do not represent our country. to those who broke the law, you wi
