Hello, you're watching Terrestrial English.
00:06
We continue with our special coverage of the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump
00:10
that is happening just a few hours from now in Washington, D.C., inside of the Capitol
00:15
Building due to the cold.
00:16
And for more information, that's why we're going to have contact with our special envoy
00:20
in Washington, D.C., Carlos Montero, who has been on the ground since yesterday providing
00:24
us with all the latest information.
00:26
Remember, just hours from now, at noon time in Caracas, we'll have this inauguration.
00:33
Let's hear what Carlos Montero has to say.
00:36
Yes, it's two hours from now, it's very, it's really, really cold today, minus six Celsius.
00:47
And I want to tell you where I am.
00:50
This is a famous avenue here in Washington, it's Pennsylvania Avenue.
00:55
In normal circumstances, this is the place would be full of people waiting to see the
01:00
transition of power, because the Capitol is five blocks from here, White House is behind
01:07
me.
01:08
And this is where, after the ceremony in the Capitol, the president comes to the White
01:14
House and hear people celebrating.
01:17
But because the weather is so cold, the organizers decided, no, there is no way people can be
01:23
outside.
01:24
It's not safe for them.
01:25
We are going to do it inside.
01:27
It's going to be in the Capitol, but it's going to be in a place, it's called the Rotunda.
01:30
It's a closed place.
01:32
Tiny place is a problem for the organizers, because 300 people you can fit inside, and
01:38
there are much more.
01:40
They were expecting 200,000 people in the city, and the special guests, there were 2,000.
01:46
So there are not many of them that are not happy, because they are going to have to see
01:51
the transition on TV.
01:54
What's happened with the people who are supposed to be here?
01:56
Okay, some of them, they are going to be lucky enough to be in a stadium, a basketball stadium.
02:02
It's called Capitol One Arena.
02:04
Some of them spend the whole night waiting to have a good seat in that.
02:09
But it's not too big, it has a capacity for 20,000 people.
02:13
And then Donald Trump promised to go late this afternoon to the Capitol One Stadium
02:19
to see with all his followers.
02:21
What's happened today?
02:22
What's happened today?
02:23
Let's start with Joe Biden, he's the last day as a president.
02:29
He signed a preventive executive order for the people who did the committee, who investigate
02:37
the January 6th, four years ago, incidents, and also Dr. Anthony Fauci, for them to don't
02:43
have any problem, because they are scared that Donald Trump take retaliation on them,
02:48
because they were investigating what's happened, and also what's happened with the COVID here
02:53
in this country.
02:54
And then Donald Trump, he was in a church, in a pre-Cosmopolitan service.
03:00
He was with the vice president, and then he's going to the White House to have breakfast
03:05
with President Biden and his wife.
03:10
And then they're going to go to the Capitol, where it's going to be the ceremony at noon.
03:14
It's going to swear on a Bible, a Bible that Donald Trump's mom gave to him in 1950s.
03:22
And then he said he's going to start to work.
03:24
He's going to start work very hard.
03:27
People are going to be surprised.
03:28
He said last night when he talked in Capitol One with his followers, it's going to be how
03:33
great America is going to do, and how fantastic everything.
03:38
He's very optimistic.
03:39
He has a lot of energy.
03:40
I saw him yesterday talking to his crowd.
03:43
But the situation here is different.
03:46
There are a lot of people who are concerned about what Trump can do in his president 2.0.
03:52
He said he's going to deport, a massive deportation from day one.
03:57
Let's see what he has to say.
03:58
He's going to sign those executive orders.
04:01
They want to be 100.
04:02
Let's listen what he's going to say at noon, and then what he said tonight, and what about
04:07
those executive orders.
04:08
There are so many things we have to follow today, so it is going to be a very important
04:14
day news-wise, and we are going to try to inform you what's going on here from Washington,
04:21
but from Pennsylvania Avenue.
04:23
That's all from right now.
04:24
We'll be back with you at any time.
04:27
Going back to the studio.
04:28
Thank you, Carlos, for the information.
04:32
We'll stay tuned with you throughout the day to know everything that is happening in this
04:36
inauguration, January 20th, of President-Elect Donald Trump, President of the United States.
