Pres. Donald Trump moves swiftly to implement his new agenda after inauguration

According to the presidential inauguration committee, here is what will happen when Trump gets to the Capitol:

First, he will be sworn in around noon.

After, Trump will bid farewell to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. Biden is leaving the Capitol via helicopter to go to Joint Base Andrews, where he will hold a farewell event with his staff.

Trump will then visit the overflow crowd gathered at Emancipation Hall to watch the swearing in and later participate in a ceremony in the presidents signing room. He will eventually return to Emancipation Hall for a review of the troops.

President Joe Biden and President-elect Trump are riding together to the U.S. Capitol for Trump's swearing-in.

Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar walked them out of the White House.

First lady Jill Biden and Melania Trump rode to the ceremony separately, as did Vice President Kamala Harris and Vice President-elect JD Vance.

As President Joe Biden prepared to pass the baton to President-elect Donald Trump, he's followed the tradition of leaving his successor a note.

While Biden confirmed that he wrote Trump a letter, he did not say what his message was.

President Ronald Reagan started the ritual of leaving his successor a letter in 1989. Every president since has taken part in the tradition. But since Reagan's letter to Bush, each handover has been from a Democrat to a Republican or vice versa.

The peaceful transition of power is a hallmark of American democracy.

It's currently on display as Biden hosts Trump at the White House before they attend the inauguration together.

But four years ago, Trump denied Biden such a welcome. Instead, he bitterly left Washington hours before the inauguration while still refusing to concede he lost the 2020 election.

"The only president ever to avoid an inauguration is the guy that's about to be inaugurated," Biden had said when he confirmed he would be in attendance for Monday's events.
