20.01.2025 โ‡ข The Day God's Chosen Returns with Golden Orders
โŒจTrump's inauguration as 47th president dominated media coverage, with morning ceremonies moved indoors due to cold weather. The event marked significant shifts in tone from 2017, with Trump claiming divine intervention in his return and wealthy tech leaders prominently featured.

Biden's final acts included pardons for Fauci, Milley, and January 6 committee members, attempting to shield them from potential prosecution. By afternoon, Trump's direct criticism of predecessors during the ceremony sparked coverage across media spectrum.

Evening events at Capital One Arena featured immediate policy implementation, including shutdown of CBP One immigration app and declaration of energy emergency for expanded drilling. The Gaza ceasefire implementation continued in parallel, with three Israeli hostages released after 471 days.

Conservative media emphasized divine mandate claims while progressive outlets focused on wealthy attendees, reflecting increasing polarization in coverage patterns.
