Summary

President Donald Trump is back in office after his inauguration, one that was marked by an "America First" theme. The President signaled that his second term will be focused on increasing energy production, securing the border, and growing the economy. The President spent the rest of the day attending celebratory events and signing executive actions in front of a crowd at Capital One Arena. FOX News Radio Political Analyst Josh Kraushaar joins the Rundown to discuss the tone of the President's inaugural speech, how Congress moves forward with a slim Republican majority, and what the first 100 days of the Trump presidency will look like. In his final moments before leaving office, then-President Biden issued a handful of last-minute pardons. Those pardoned include his siblings and their spouses, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and former Joint Chiefs of Staff and retired General Mark Milley. Biden asserts that accepting his pardon is not the same as an admission of guilt. Former lawyer for President Donald Trump and former federal prosecutor Jim Trusty joins to explain how preemptive pardons work and what precedent this sets. Plus, commentary from FOX News contributor Joe Concha. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
