President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris inspected U.S. troops from the steps of the Capitol Building, Wednesday, January 20.

READ MORE: Democrat Joe Biden, a fixture in Washington for nearly a half-century, was sworn in Wednesday as the 46th U.S. president and called on Americans to unite in support of each other in what he called “a winter of peril and significant possibilities.”
Biden, at 78, becomes the country’s oldest leader ever after serving 36 years as a U.S. senator and eight as vice president. He took the presidential oath of office on the steps of the Capitol, swearing to uphold the U.S. Constitution and defend the country against all enemies, foreign and domestic, on a chilly, wind-swept day.
Shortly before, Kamala Harris, a former senator from California, the country’s most populous state, was sworn in as vice president, becoming the highest ranking female official in more than two centuries of U.S. history. She is of Black and Indian heritage.
In his inaugural address, Biden said, “My whole soul is in this.”
Biden promised to be the president of all Americans, not just those who voted for him in his victory in the November election over then President Donald Trump.
