Reporter while President Trump was once again nowhere to be seen, First Lady Melania Trump today offered her farewell message to the nation. My fellow americans. Reporter in the prerecorded video, she seemed to allude to the attack on the u. S. Capitol by supporters of her husband. Be passionate in everything you do, but always remember that violence is never the answer. And will never be justified. Use every opportunity to show consideration for another person. Reporter but mrs. Trump will be the first first lady in modern history not to invite her successor to the white house before the inauguration, denying a courtesy to dr. Jill biden that Michelle Obama extended to her. Of course, President Trump isnt extending that courtesy to joe biden, either. Some of trumps advisers have been pleading with him to at least call biden and to leave him a note in the oval office, a longstanding tradition for outgoing president s. Shortly after taking office, trump showed david the note barack obama left him. And this was the letter given to me by president obama. We saw that image of him, we saw that image of him, the final morning that he was here, putting the letter on the desk. Which was, i wont show it to you, read it to you, but just a a beautiful letter. Is there a line you can share that struck you most . There were numerous lines, so wellwritten, so thoughtful. Reporter george h. W. Bush famously left bill clinton a note, saying, quote, you will be our president when you read this note. Your success is now our countrys success. I am rooting hard for you. Trump is instead planning a farewell ceremony for himself at joint base andrews, with great military fanfare. Then hell Board Air Force one for the last time and head to maralago, where moving trucks were spotted today. Before he goes, trump is expected to announce about 100 pardons. But sources tell abc news, the president is not expected to pardon himself or any members of his family or any close associates. And then theres the matter of his impeachment trial. Who will lead his defense is up in the air. It had been expected to be rudy giuliani, but giuliani told abc over the weekend that hes out, because he, too, spoke at the rally before the riot. Lets have trial by combat reporter giuliani says that makes him a potential witness. All right, so, lets get right to jon karl, live at the white house tonight. And jon, you showed that moment and boy, it took me back. In the oval office, right off the last inauguration. President trump was really so proud of that letter president obama had left for him. But i guess the question, jon, is that tradition of leaving letters for the next president now over . Reporter well, well see, david. I can tell you that several people close to President Trump have urged him to leave a letter to president elect biden. Whether or not he does remains to be seen. But this much is already clear, donald trump will be the first president , the first outgoing president in more than 150 years, not to attend the inauguration of his successor. In 150 years. All right, jon karl, our thanks to you, as well, tonight. In the meantime, president elect joe biden tonight, what he now plans to do on day one of his presidency. Heres mary bruce on that.

His team is laying out the plan for day one. Biden expected to sign roughly a dozen executive orders, undoing some of Donald Trumps most controversial moves. He will immediately rejoin the paris climate accord, reportedly cancel the Keystone Pipeline and will reverse the socalled muslim travel ban. And take the first step in his fight against covid mandating masks on federal lands and extending the pause of student loan payments. But bidens big ticket items, like that massive 1. 9 trillion stimulus plan, will require congressional approval. There is a lot to do. Some would say that ours is an ambitious goal. But we do believe, with hard work and with the cooperation and collaboration of the members of the United States congress, that we can get it done. Reporter Kamala Harris will make history this week as the first black woman and the first asianamerican sworn in as Vice President. Administering the oath, Justice Sonia sotomayor, the first woman of color on the supreme court. And it will happen on the same spot where that mob of Trump Supporters stormed the capitol. Harris today asked if she had any security concerns. I am very much looking forward to being sworn in as the next Vice President of the United States, and i will walk there, to that moment, proudly, with my head up and my shoulders back. And she will make history. Mary bruce, president elect joe bidens inaugural address will also be historic, they all are. But this one will be delivered amid a pandemic, this economy, a racial reckoning and just days after the deadly riot. So, what are you learning tonight . What does he hope to accomplish before the American People on wednesday . Reporter well, david, theres no question, this will be the most consequential speech of bidens life. He will be speaking to millions of americans who are hurting, hardhit financially and grieving, to many who are just plain angry, including many of President Trumps supporters. Hell be reaching out directly to them, too, as biden outlines his vision and plan to try to unite and heal this country. David . All right, mary bruce, with us all week, as well. Thank you, mary.

And news on the vaccination effort. Heres Abcs Steve Osunsami now. Reporter this week now marks a whole year since covid19 first appeared in this country, when the president was saying the disease would be handled. We have it totally under control. Its one person coming in from china and we have it under control, its going to be just fine. Reporter but the new numbers tonight arent fine. The number of americans killed by the coronavirus is now nearly 400,000. And the cdc warns that another 100,000 could die in the next month. The disease is overwhelming Funeral Homes tonight in los angeles county. The cemeteries cant keep up. Manuel Lopez Marquez died last week, but his family says they might not be able to bury him for another month and a half. When we called the cemetery, we were 102 on the waiting line. And it took about six to seven hours to get through to the mortuary. Reporter in hardhit communities, like this one in yuma, arizona, theyre waiting on new supplies of the vaccine, because they dont have enough doses for everyone who is eligible to get one. Pat parker in texas is one of the many who says shes desperate to get the shot. I dont want to die of covid. Its that simple. I dont want to die of covid. Reporter in california, theyre working through a setback. More than 330,000 doses are on hold until Health Officials can figure out why a small number of people at a single Vaccination Center suffered possible allergic reactions after getting the shot. The risk, which is so small of a severe allergic reaction, particularly in somebody whos never had a history, really is minute compared to the risk of just having covid. Reporter diana says it could have been Something Else that caused her reaction and says she doesnt want other americans to avoid the vaccine. I do have a lot of friends that have heard my story and still went and got their vaccine and i think thats amazing. Reporter Health Officials here at the cdc are now tracking variants of the coronavirus that are more contagious. They point out that the vaccine works against all of this, which is why they underline that an overwhelming number of americans need to get vaccinated. David . All right, steve osunsami. Steve, thank you. Overseas tonight, Vladimir Putins fiercest critic, Alexei Navalny, who was nearly poisoned to death, returning to russia and immediately detained.

And he was arrested minutes after arriving in moscow, kissing his wife goodbye. And tonight, Alexei Navalny has now been detained for at least 30 days, prompting outrage around the world. With his supporters outside, russias leading opposition activist was brought before a hastilyarranged hearing at the Police Station itself. The judge ruling navalny violated parole for an earlier charge. He spoke today in the court, saying, you just tore up all the criminal procedure laws and threw them in the trash. Navalny nearly died last year after being poisoned with the extremely toxic chemical weapon novichok. He fell ill on an airplane, blaming the kremlin for the attack, something they deny. He had this message for his supporters. Dont be afraid. Take to the streets. Dont go out for me. Go out for yourself and your future. Navalny is being held until a parole hearing later this month, which could mean years of additional jail time. David . All
