Yes, sir, in coordination with the secret service and the fbi, theyre screening all the personnel coming in. Cnns Alex Marquardt has more on all of the security preparations in washington, d. C. Reporter good morning, laura and christine. Here on the streets of washington, d. C. , it feels like the calm before the storm. The question is whether that storm comes, whether theres going to be more violence here in the nations capitol. They are certainly not taking any chances in the days leading up to and for joe bidens inauguration. We are just east of the capitol building. This is what has really become a fortress around the capitol complex. Youve got these eight foot nonscaleable fences. You have the razor wire on top of the fences and just a Staggering Amount of security in the streets of d. C. , many of which have been closed off. You have 25,000 National Guard troops who have been approved to be mobilized by the pentagon for the inauguration. They are from all 50 states, territories, and here in washington, d. C. You can see some National Guard forces there. They have been joined in this case on this street by some Supreme Court police. That just tells you to what extent there is this incredible patch work and coordination of Law Enforcement agencies. One concern according to the mayor of washington, d. C. , because things are so fortified, armed groups, protesters may look for targets elsewhere in the city and other state capitols. Listen to a bit of what she had to say on sunday. Im not only concerned about other state capitols, im also concerned about other parts of washington, d. C. What youre showing is really the federal enclave of washington, d. C. , not where the 700,000 of us live. So our Police Department working with our federal Law Enforcement partners and the United States army quite frankly also has a plan to pivot if we have any attacks in our neighborhoods. Reporter the mayor of dc also said this is the biggest security presence since 9 11. They are voicing confidence for their ability to have a secure event on wednesday for the inauguration.

Bidens rescue package includes investments needed like bigger stimulus checks, rental assistance, additional money really important for small business. The question now, will the plan pass in full . Even with democratic control in the white house and congress, moodys predicts a package only half the proposed size is possible. More aid is needed and now.

Good morning. 31 minutes past the hour on this Martin Luther king day. Im christine romans. 5 31 in the east. An Army Reservist with secret level security clearance and a long record of posting extremist views online is the latest wave of rioters charged. The fbi is investigating a tip that a woman who participated in the siege may have stolen a laptop from House SpeakerNancy Pelosis office to potentially sell to russia. Theres no indication that a laptop was taken. The fbi says the matter remains under investigation. Meanwhile, as officials braced for armed protests at state capitols, most protests turned out small and quiet. Well get to that in just a moment. Well, meanwhile here, President Trump is preparing to pump out a final batch of about 100 pardons and commutations on tuesday. His last full day in office. Three sources tell cnn the last big batch of clemency actions is expected to include white collar criminals. High profile rappers and his political allies. Aides dont think hell try to pardon himself, his kids or his personal lawyer rudy giuliani. We have more on trumps plans from jeremy dye month at the white house. Reporter good morning, christine and laura. President trump has been hold up in the white house for the last five days as he was impeached for a second time, the first time for a president in american history. The president has been unusually quiet given his track record over the last four years. That doesnt mean President Trump will be leaving the white house on a quiet note. Sources have told us that the president has been asking for a military style sendoff, either here at the white house or at joint base andrews as he leaves the white house in his last hours as the president of the United States. Separately were hearing President Trump is expected to issue more pardons as he leaves office. Hes already issued a series of controversial pardons. Were told that the president is going to be issuing more of those pardons and of course there is that question looming of whether the president will pardon himself. Something thats been hotly debated among constitutional scholars but hasnt been tested in the courts. Then theres this question of whether the president might pardon those rioters who stormed capitol hill on january 6th as senators an congressmen were certifying the results of the 2020 election. At least one of the president s allies, senator Lindsey Graham is urging president not to do that. There are people who are urging the president to pardon the people. You interrupted a joint session of congress. You tried to intimidate us all. You should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and to seek a pardon of these people would be wrorng. It would be i think it would destroy President Trump and i hope we dont go down that road. Reporter now these final pardons that President Trump is expected to issue before he leaves office, theyre not unusual for a departing president , but what is unusual is the way in which the scramble has taken place over the last several weeks with aides and allies meeting with the president to try and get him to issue pardons for political allies and to doll out these things as political favors. Thats how hes doing it versus going through the pardon attorney. Thats why according to the New York Times, some of the president s allies have been cashing in on this charging tens of thousands of dollars to help secure pardons for convicted felons and well have to see whether or not those people will get their money worth in the last couple of days. Christine, laura. Jeremy at the white house. Thank you for that. The National Security agency says it is installing Michael Ellis as its general counsel. Acting defense secretary Christopher Miller ordered paul macasoni to place that trump loyalist into the role. The role of general counsel at the countrys largest Intelligence Agency is a civil very advice position. It is not a political post. It could be difficult for the Biden Administration to remove ellis. President elect biden is not ruling out blocking President Trump from receiving intel briefings once hes out of office. Well certainly look for a recommendation from the intelligence professionals in the Biden Administration. Bidenharris administration once theyre in place. Well act on that recommendation. So obviously we dont have those intelligence officials in place yet. Hope the senate moves to confirm them quickly. Then well look at what they recommend in terms of intelligence sharing. President trumps National Security director warned that trump might be unusually vulnerable to bad actors with ill intent once hes no longer president. President elect biden plans to rejoin the paris climate accord, ending the travel ban on predominantly muslim countries and halting evictions and student loan payments. Mask mandate on federal property. Youll see him move on promises he made on the campaign trail to ensure we are focused on workers. Youll see him make good on the buy america promise. Youll see him make good moving towards a more just and racially equitable society. Youll see him make movement on climate, on jobs. Mr. Biden plans to use his executive powers to change the course of the covid19 crisis as safely reopen schools and businesses. Join cnn for live coverage of the inauguration of president joe biden. We have special all day coverage of this historic event. It starts wednesday morning on cnn. As we mentioned, Law Enforcement officials have been bracing for armed protests at state capitols over the weekend. Cnn has reporters across the country covering that part of the story. Reporter im bill weir in madison, wisconsin, where the governor had the outside of the capitol protected with plywood and had National Guards men inside. All day we counted a grand total of three pro trump protesters, two with long guns and one with a bicentennial flag. A lot of the plywood that went up in the summer is still there. Some propose banning the police use of tear gas and rubber bullets to stop violent protests. Im Miguel Marquez in harrisburg, pennsylvania. I want to show you what it looked like all day on sunday, empty. Not a single serious protester showed up. Thats a very good result for authorities here who prepared heavily to protect the capitol. The capitol will remain shut for the rest of this week, at least through the inauguration of joe biden, but the state of pennsylvania, like many, have issues Going Forward with extremism. There are ten republican members of the congressional delegation, eight of them voted against the Electoral CollegeGoing Forward in favor of joe biden. This is not going to end today. Authorities going to be on watch this week and certainly the months and years ahead. Im Josh Campbell in lansing, michigan, outside the state capitol. You see members of the National Guard and state police protecting this building. This following the warning about the fbi about protests with armed members across the country. On sunday we saw a small group here, about 25 people. Some of them armed including some selfdescribed members of the bugalu movement. We asked authorities how long they plan to keep the military and police out here, they are doing a threat assessment looking for available intelligence. That will dictate how long we see the show of force. Reporter im martin savidge. You had Armored Vehicles parked on the police steps. National guard troops, capitol police, Even State Police all heavily armed. Streets nearby not just closed but barricaded using dump trucks to protect people ramming through. In the end only a handful of protesters showed up. The show of force worked but the wide open question remains, what happens next. Im kyung lah in sacramento where the Security Posture here remains high. You can see that there is a six foot hyphens that is completely surrounding the capitol on the steps, the entranceway to the capitol, you can see police cars, chp vehicles as well as officers all around the building, but in a sign that the protests here did not materialize, those street barriers are just now starting to come down. Thanks to all of our correspondents for those updates. We move to coronavirus. Overnight we learned of more than 1700 new deaths from the vi virus. New Administration Takes over this week in washington with its own 234u7d plan to combat it. The pandemic will get worse before it gets better. Nearly 4,000 deaths a day. Almost 400,000 deaths total by the middle of february. We expect half a Million Deaths in this country. And we still yet havent seen the ramifications of what happened from the holiday travel, from Holiday Gathering in terms of high rates of hospitalizations and the deaths thereafter. So, yes, i think we still have some dark weeks ahead. Were inheriting a huge mess here, jake. We have a plan to fix it. The president elect laid out that plan, five concrete steps to move forward. I want to give the vaccine makers credit. They are producing vaccine. We think there are things we can do to speed up the delivery of that vaccine. One thing the president elect mentioned was using the defense production act to ramp up the production of particular type of syringes that will allow us to get six doses out of the viles versus five. Cnns paul bercammen has more from hard hit california. Reporter laura, christine, california continues to be bludgeoned by these cases. 42,000 new cases at the last count. Also 432 deaths. Over the weekend, an absolutely horrific benchmark eclipsed in Los Angeles County. That is 1 million confirmed coronavirus cases. How do they get in front of that . They have launched new megacoronavirus vaccination sites. One of them is at dodgers stadium. They suspended the vaccinations for sunday but they hope to at one point vaccinate 12,000 people. It is just daunting, all of this every day on these nurses, these firefighters and others in the battle against the virus. People are working nonstop. Theyre working hard. Talked to a captain who had two hours of sleep trying to set this up, trying to set up the logistics part of this huge on taking here at dodgers. You see him and he has a smile on his face because hes doing everything he possibly can humanly to make us successful and to make us efficient. Reporter the vaccination focus in Los Angeles County is for Health Care Workers and first responders, people in related fields. Again, they want to vaccinate people over 65 years old as they are in most of the rest of california but they are trying to get after those Health Care Workers first. Its just a tense situation. Of course, theyre crossing their fingers and hoping they dont somehow run out of vaccine. Back to you now, christine, laura. Paul bercammen, thanks, paul. U. S.

He was detained moments after arriving back in his home country five months after he was poisoned by suspected russian agents and nearly died. A lastminute Court Hearing is currently underway. Lets get straight to cnns from the time plied kin who is live in moscow. Bring us up to speed. What is going on in this hearing. Reporter hi, laura. It is certainly very fast moving and very controversial as well. Alexey navalny posted a video from inside that Court Hearing. He said essentially what happened he had no communication with his lawyer or his team. Then this morning they came into his cell and took him out. He thought he had meeting with his lawyers. He said, by the way, theres a hearing going on against you right now. That is to determine whether he is going to remain in detention. One of the things hes angry about is the fact that that hearing is not even taking place inside a real court. Its a make shift court inside a Police Station just to give you an idea of how fast things are moving here in moscow. Youre right, this came hours after Alexey Navalny touched down here in moscow. That in itself was remarkable. His plane was supposed to land at an airport in moscow and at the last second got diverted to a different airport. That means all the journalists and supporters waiting at the one airport didnt get to see him. Then he was detained before he made it on to russian soil. At that point in time throughout the entire night his supporters had absolutely no access to him. He continues to say he believes all of this is happening because Vladimir Putin is afraid of his return. He believes the russian state is afraid of his return. In the past the russian government has said that is not the case but certainly judging by what were seeing right now, we do see a lot of very, very interesting things going on around this return of Alexey Navalny. An entire airport in moscow shut down for an extended period of time and now this hearing inside a Police Station thats not even a real court, laura. Fred, thanks so much for staying on top of this.
