Happy New Year to you. >> The new year, a new Congress, a new president. [MUSIC] >> January 20th, 2017 will be remembered as the day the people became the rulers of this nation again. Americans want great schools for their children, safe neighborhoods for their families, and good jobs for themselves. But for too many of our citizens, a different reality exists. Crime, and the gangs, and the drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential. This American carnage stops right here and stops right now. [MUSIC] >> Now, there are many people here celebrating the inauguration of President Trump, but there are also many others who are protesting his inauguration. >> Now, here, let's mock, here, let's say this, let's mock, here, let's say this. >> The biggest inauguration protest in the United States history, the biggest single day protest of any kind in the United States history. >> Every continent around the world, millions of women marched in protest. >> A message, a historic rebuke to Mr. Trump and a declaration of feminism in a polarized America. >> [NOISE] [MUSIC] >> I'm establishing new vetting measures to keep radical Islamic terrorists out of the United States of America. We don't want them here. >> President Trump's executive orders temporarily restricting entry into the United States from several predominantly Muslim countries is now in effect. >> They can't deny that this is a Muslim ban, it is a Muslim ban. >> A federal judge has temporarily halted President Trump's controversial travel ban nationwide. So, what happens next? >> President Donald Trump announced his pick for Supreme Court Justice. >> Judge Neil Gorsuch, Neil Gorsuch. >> He'd be the most conservative Supreme Court nominee in 25 years. Be the eighth most conservative member on this court. That's what Donald Trump wanted in a nominee and I think that's what he got. [MUSIC] >> Tonight, a major shake up in the three week old Trump administration, national security adviser Michael Flynn is out. >> Flynn stepped down tonight amid a cover up scandal involving the Russians. >> Now, there are louder calls for an investigation into Michael Flynn.
