(2ND UPDATE) Donald Trump is sworn in as the 47th president of the United States

The speech echoed many of the themes he sounded at his first inauguration in 2017 when he spoke darkly of the “American carnage” of crime and job loss that he said had ravaged the country. In addition to declaring an emergency, the president will send armed troops there and resume a policy forcing asylum seekers to wait in Mexico for their US court dates, officials told reporters.

“The journey to reclaim our republic has not been an easy one, that I can tell you,” Trump said, before referring to the assassin’s bullet that grazed his ear in July. “I was saved by God to make America great again.” Trump, the first US president since the 19th century to win a second term after losing the White House, has said he would pardon “on Day One” many of the more than 1,500 people charged in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, attack. He skipped Biden’s inauguration and has continued to claim falsely that the 2020 election he lost to Biden was rigged.

But Trump will not immediately impose new tariffs on Monday, instead directing federal agencies to evaluate trade relationships with Canada, China and Mexico, a Trump official said, an unexpected development that unleashed a broad slide in the US dollar and a rally in global stock markets on a day when US financial markets are closed.

Trump, who surpassed Biden as the oldest president ever to be sworn into office, will enjoy Republican majorities in both chambers of Congress that have been almost entirely purged of any intra-party dissenters. His advisers have outlined plans to replace nonpartisan bureaucrats with hand-picked loyalists.

Trump Seeks to Delay Sentencing in Hush Money CaseFormer US President Donald Trump is making a last-ditch effort to delay his sentencing in the hush money case. He filed an appeal to a state court, hoping to overturn a lower court ruling that set the sentencing for January 10, just days before Trump's inauguration. Trump's legal team argues that a pre-inauguration sentencing would violate presidential immunity and needs to be halted. The case stems from a $130,000 payment made by Trump's former lawyer to adult film actress Stormy Daniels to prevent her from disclosing an alleged sexual encounter with Trump before the 2016 election.
