Donald Trump has returned to the White House as the 47th president of the United States. His first day in office included a formal swearing-in ceremony, musical performances, a festive parade and a series of official receptions. Trump, 78, begins his second term with a unified government, with the Republican Party securing control of the Senate, the House of Representatives and the White House.
"America's golden age begins now," he said in his speech, adding that the country "will prosper and be respected" under his leadership as a "peacemaker and unifier." Trump also criticized the Biden administration and its handling of the immigration crisis, saying the country has a "crisis of confidence" in its government.
Tech billionaires, cabinet nominees and former presidents were all at the ceremony in the U.S. Capitol rotunda. Minutes before Trump was sworn in, Joe Biden pardoned members of his family, a decision his successor quickly criticized.
Trump is set to declare a "national emergency" at the U.S.-Mexico border, designate drug cartels as terrorists and eliminate government diversity programs as part of a series of executive orders within hours. But he will not announce tariffs on trading partners today, officials say. The inauguration ceremony featured many moments that made the rounds around the world.
One of them was the moment when tycoon Elon Musk, the richest man in the world and Trump's right-hand man, appears confused as he looks at the Capitol dome. This moment is making the rounds around the world.
The 47th President of the United States gave a kiss on the cheek to his wife Melania Trump, who chose a navy blue coat, with a matching hat with white details reminiscent of... a movie character. The coat was by Adam Lippes and the matching hat by Eric Javits, both American designers.
Tech billionaires and top officials from the new Trump administration attended the inauguration ceremony of the 47th US president in a festive atmosphere. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Google CEO Sundar Pichai were seen occupying the main seats at St. John's Church.
Media mogul Rupert Murdoch, FIFA president Gianni Infantino and former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson were also spotted.
