Joe Biden has officially become the 46th president of the United States.
Biden took the oath of office just before noon Wednesday during a ceremony at the U.S. Capitol. The presidential oath was administered by U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts.
Biden was sworn in using a Bible that has been in his family since 1893 and was used during his swearing-in as vice president in 2009 and 2013. The 5-inch thick Bible, which could be seen on a table next to Biden s chair on the dais, has a Celtic cross on its cover and was also used each time he was sworn- n as a U.S. senator.
Hours after being sworn in as the 46th U.S. president, Joe Biden would sign 15 executive orders – including rejoining the Paris climate agreement, a 100-day mask mandate and reversing the Muslim ban – undoing some of the major policies of his predecessor Donald Trump.
“It is irregular and improper for this court to disable any rally. It is for the police to decide. We will allow you to withdraw. You are the executive of the country. You decide,” Chief Justice Bobde, heading a three-judge Bench, addressed Attorney General K.K. Venugopal and Solicitor General Tushar Mehta.
