All right, from ABC News, the Senate unanimously confirmed Marco Rubio as Secretary of State with a decisive 99 to 0 vote, marking the first cabinet appointment in the president's administration. Rubio is the first Latino and the first Cuban American to hold the position. He is known for strong stances on China and his support for U.S.-India relations.
His confirmation was praised across party lines with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer acknowledging Rubio's qualifications despite some policy disagreements.
I am curious to see what the impact is, because it seemed like after he had his hearing in front of the committee that potentially the hard part here was over. Jody Ernst backed him. She was seen as a major roadblock potentially. So we'll see if this does it. But I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen.
From CBS News to Americans, Ryan Corbett and William Wallace McKenty have been released by the Taliban in Afghanistan as part of a prisoner exchange for Khan Mohammed, who was imprisoned in the U.S. on drug trafficking and terrorism charges. The exchange was the result of extensive negotiations over two years and occurred just before President Biden's term ended and Donald Trump took office.
Corbett had been detained by the Taliban since 2022 during a business trip to Afghanistan.
Okay, and here's something that we could have used last week from USA Today. Progresso unveiled a new innovative way for soup lovers to satisfy their taste buds. And the response was overwhelmingly positive. So last Thursday, the soup company announced the launch of Soup Drops, a chicken noodle soup flavored hard candy drop that resembles a cough drop. The first batch...
Sold out in under an hour, but Progresso posted on Instagram saying, don't worry, there's a fresh batch of soup you could suck on coming your way next Thursday. So that is tomorrow at 9 a.m. Eastern time at progressosoupdrop.com. Progresso saying there will be additional drops every week on Thursday for the rest of the month.
I do feel that the whole point of soup when you're not feeling well is that it kind of like warms you up and loosens up anything you've got going on. But I get it. Either they'll flavor it like the menthol or or maybe a citrus flavor. Why not just go for the soup?
Moj, at this rate, one of us will be sick like next week. Yeah, exactly. So we need to send them over.
Moshe, I think I have mentioned this on the podcast before, but there is a great cover of Rich Girl from Lake Street Dive. Highly recommend for anyone who likes that song.
Did I say she's a rich girl?
And now we need goodbye. Yes. Which doesn't have quite the same power.

Yeah, so let's get to some news here. Donald Trump is officially the president again and off to a quick start with a number of executive orders. We'll recap the inauguration and what's next for his presidency. First on immigration, declaring a national emergency at the southern border as immigration agents prepare for a crackdown on undocumented criminals in Chicago today.
The president issued a sweeping pardon, roughly 1500 criminal defendants charged in the January 6th Capitol attack. Plus, Trump declares a national energy emergency and signs executive orders proclaiming that there are only two biological sexes and halting diversity and inclusion programs in the government. Finally, Trump announced he'll rename the Gulf of Mexico and Mount Denali.
And right before leaving office, Joe Biden issues a number of controversial last minute pardons, including to several family members.
Another excuse for us to say, you get a pardon. You get a pardon. You get a pardon.
And last, we'll have a recap of the college football playoff national championship. And Mosh has on this day in history.
