Donald Trump Sworn in as 47th U.S. President, Marking Historic Return to White House
Washington, D.C.—January 20, 2025—Donald J. Trump was inaugurated today as the 47th President of the United States, marking a historic return to the White House for a non-consecutive second term. The ceremony took place indoors at the U.S. Capitol Rotunda due to extreme cold weather conditions.
Chief Justice John Roberts administered the oath of office to President Trump, while Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh swore in Vice President J.D. Vance. The event was attended by a host of dignitaries, including former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton, alongside their spouses. Notably, tech industry leaders such as Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg were also present, highlighting the intersection of politics and technology in the current era.
In his inaugural address, President Trump emphasized a vision of renewed American strength and unity, stating, “We will restore our nation’s greatness and ensure prosperity for all citizens.” He outlined plans to declare a national emergency at the southern border and implement policies aimed at deterring asylum seekers, signaling a firm stance on immigration.
The inauguration was marked by heightened security measures, including the deployment of the National Guard, following previous assassination attempts and an attack. Despite these concerns, the ceremony proceeded without incident, underscoring the resilience of American democratic traditions.
Following the swearing-in, President Trump signed several executive orders and attended the inaugural luncheon with congressional leaders. The day’s events concluded with the inaugural parade along Pennsylvania Avenue, featuring military regiments, marching bands, and floats celebrating American heritage.
President Trump’s return to office, following a previous term from 2017 to 2021, mirrors the non-consecutive presidencies of Grover Cleveland in the late 19th century, marking a unique chapter in U.S. political history.
