Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. How happy are we? Today, we're broadcasting from Washington, D.C., where our prayers have been answered. It is official. Joe Biden is gone. Kamala Harris is gone. Everyone is cleaned out of the White House press office. And Donald Trump is the 47th president of the United States. J.D. Vance, the vice president. Right now, it happened. The day began at St. John's Church where Donald Trump, his family, and incoming top officials worshiped and demonstrated that class and grace are back in the White House. Look at Melania, this incredible hat, absolutely stunning.
All right, so here we got a little fashion info for you. Lippis, it is a guy named Adam Lippis. who designed that beautiful dress. It was a navy blue coat. And then the hat was by Eric Javits, another New York-based designer. Lippis is 52. He rose to prominence as a creative director for Oscar de la Renta, but since 2004 has his own company. He also used to design for Target, so good for her for getting a guy who is close to being a man of the people. Mr. Trump and Melania then took a brief visit over to the White House where President Biden was heard saying two words to President Trump. Welcome home. Good line. This lovely little piece of jargon came just after Mr. Biden announced pardons for Dr. Fauci, the January 6th committee, General Mark Milley and many, many others to protect them from, quote, baseless abuse. and politically motivated investigations, because who would want to be the target of one of those?
And just before he pardoned five, count them, five members of his family with about 15 minutes to go in his presidency, Mr. Biden, for the last time, using his power to protect those around him. Yeah. I mean, we did Hunter in advance and then he did brother Jim and the sister and the in-laws and basically anyone named Biden other than his daughter, Ashley, who, as far as we know, has a substance abuse problem, but no criminality in her life. OK, so at noon, his presidency did come to an end per the U.S. Constitution. Trump's began. And take a listen to the reaction from Trump supporters in the Capital One Arena here in Washington. It's where I can't remember what they're called, but the hockey team and the basketball team play here inside. Thanks to the extreme colder. It is freaking cold in Washington as the new president entered the Capitol building on Capitol Hill. It's very cool.
So what you're seeing there is that they're not even they're not anywhere near the action. Right. The president's walking into the rotunda on Capitol Hill a couple of miles away. And so there were people who were in that room. Then there were people who were in the overflow room inside the U.S. Capitol building. And then these folks in the Capitol one building, which is the sports arena, were overflow overflow. And you would have thought they were right in front of him. given those cheers. The enthusiasm in this town right now is palpable. I mean, palpable. And here is the moment it became official when Chief Justice of the United States, John Roberts, swore in Donald J. Trump as the 47th president.
Please raise your right hand and repeat after me. I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear... I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear. That I will faithfully execute. That I will faithfully execute. The office of President of the United States. The office of President of the United States. And will to the best of my ability. And will to the best of my ability. Preserve, protect, and defend. Preserve, protect, and defend. The Constitution of the United States. The Constitution of the United States. So help me God. So help me God. Congratulations, Mr. President.
Wow. Shaking the hand of outgoing President Joe Biden, hugging his family. There was a moment there where Chief Justice John Roberts got started a little sooner than the family anticipated. So Melania had to step in sort of at the very beginning of the oath. And then you saw Trump's children come sort of like, oh, it's time, you know, like we got to get over there.
