Donald Trump has been sworn in as the 47th US president.
The Tech billionaires, cabinet nominees and former presidents are all at the ceremony in the rotunda of the US Capitol
Minutes before Trump took the oath, Joe Biden issued pardons for members of his family
Trump is set to declare a “national emergency” at the US-Mexico border, declare drug cartels as terrorists, and scrap government diversity programmes as part of a blitz of executive orders in the coming hours
But he won’t announce tariffs on trade partners today, officials say.
He swears to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution.
