The time finally has come. In less than 36 hours, President-Elect Joseph R. Biden will become the 46th President of the United States. He is becoming President in Covid times, where almost 400,000 people have perished to date because of the pandemic. Now in a new year of 2021, where everyone around the world is so thankful that 2020 is now behind us, and 2021 is here, Americans have a very capable and trusted man to enter the White House as the 46th President. The first African American with Indian heritage to be Biden’s Vice-President, a woman from the U.S. Senate that represented California, Kamala Harris is the perfect match to help Joe Biden through these challenging times. With the promise of a very capable man in the White House, the President-Elect has his hands full, mainly because of the actions of his predecessor, Donald J. Trump.
To throw a wrench in the works, President Trump incited the riots at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. on January 6th and perpetrated a violent threat in Washington D.C. to stop the transfer of power. For that idiotic act, president Trump was impeached for a 2nd time in less than a year. Just like how 911 forever changed the world, just like how Covid-19 has changed the World, September 6th at the Capital in Washington D.C. has transformed the United States into a very more dangerous world. It was difficult enough for Americans to practice social distancing before the riots, but the Trump supporters who led by Trump who incited the insurrection at the U.S. Capital now created an immediate crisis . Tonight, the National Mall is closed off to visitors. There will be no people at the mall to witness the inauguration because of recent riots, thanks to President Trump and his followers. The National Mall will be totally void of people who now has to watch the ceremony on television. Instead with 25,000 heavily armed troops are deployed on the streets around the nations capital to make sure that the inauguration will go without incident, this will be the first time in modern history that the plaza will be without people to witness the event. In Covid times, the chances that the mall would have been packed with people as it has several times in the past, is pretty much a non-possibility.
As expected on his first day in office, President Joe Biden will have about a dozen executive orders to sign, to directly overturn several executive orders made by president Trump. Details of the executive orders will appear in a future article. The next update to appear here will be on January 20, when Joe Biden becomes the 46th President of the United States.
