Late Night Today is for our readers who can’t stay awake to watch the shows. Everyone deserves a good laugh.
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert:
The day so many Americans have been waiting for is finally here.
While the socially distanced crowd and the glaring absence of an outgoing president made for a most unusual Inauguration Day for Joe Biden, a sense of optimism prevailed as did the feeling that a return to ‘normal’ may be possible.
In the Oval Office today in his first acts as America’s new leader, President Biden signed a number of executive orders reversing some of the worst policies of the previous administration, including halting construction on the border wall, ending the Muslim travel ban and revoking approval of the Keystone XL oil pipeline project.
Despite the pandemic, Joe Biden’s inauguration has plenty of pomp and circumstance, and Donald Trump shares a bizarre goodbye message after doling out tons of pardons on his way out the door.
How did Joe Biden’s swearing-in stack up against others? Here’s a brief history of presidential inaugurations, from a strict oath of office and inaugural speeches to presidential pettiness and parting letters.
