On Jan. 20,beautiful girls sex videos following an embattled first term and tense election year — as well as two impeachments and a felony conviction, a first for any U.S. president — President-elect Donald Trump will be sworn into office for the second time.
Observers near and far are gearing up for the ceremony with bated breath, as many stand on guard for the President's remarks following his incitement to insurrection on Jan. 6, 2020 — an inflammatory speech that would later win him suspension from several online platforms and an impeachment in the U.S. House. But the President's successful election season may signal a much more calm presidential transition this time around.

The inaugural events will be a relatively smaller schedule of activities than previous years, pulling from a $170 million inauguration committee fund (boosted by some of the incoming leader's biggest tech allies, including Meta's Mark Zuckerberg). Inauguration ball performers will include a country lineup of Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Kid Rock, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Lee Greenwood. The Village People will be performing at events throughout the weekend, and opera singer Christopher Macchio will perform the national anthem during the ceremony.

When Trump's presidential powers come into play
Many tuning in to Monday's ceremony will be wondering when Trump will be able to execute his executive powers.
Starting from the time of election to inauguration day (about 75 days), the incoming Trump administration will have been beefing up a roster of transition staff and volunteers to aid in a smoother transfer of power, explains the Center for Presidential Transition, a nonpartisan nonprofit. During this time, the President-elect will have also announced his picks for prized appointments.
A post-inauguration "handover" phase then begins, while the new administration enters a 200-day blitz period with the goal of enshrining as many early policy wins as possible. On day one of his presidency, Trump will have the ability to sign executive orders and reverse existing policies, which he has already pledged to do. Experts anticipate the new President tackling tariffs, immigration, and environmental policy almost immediately — some of these priorities, including tariffs and any federal employee rollbacks, will have immediate effects, while others will act more symbolically.
Trump will also immediately gain executive clemency powers, allowing him to pardon and commute the sentences of individuals. Americans can also expect more appointment and staffing announcements in the post-inauguration period.
