President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance are being sworn in today inside the Capitol Rotunda. The inaugural ceremony was moved inside for the first time since 1985 due to cold weather. Attendees at the inauguration include tech billionaires Elon Musk, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook and Google’s Sundar Pichai.
On Sunday, Trump held a rally at the Capital One Arena, where he vowed to spend his first day back in the White House issuing a blitz of executive orders.
President-elect Donald Trump: “We’re going to stop the invasion of our borders. We’re going to reclaim our wealth. We’re going to unlock the liquid gold that’s right under our feet. Liquid gold. We’re going to bring back law and order to our cities. We’re going to restore patriotism to our schools, get radical left woke ideologies the hell out of our military and out of our government. And we are going to make America great again.”
It’s expected Trump will issue about 50 executive orders today after he’s inaugurated. On Saturday, thousands of people gathered in Washington for a “People’s March” to protest Trump’s inauguration. Three hundred other marches were held across the country. We will air excerpts from the D.C. protest later in the show.
