As Donald Trump prepares to take the oath of office, security, protests, and unresolved decisions on TikTok dominate the lead-up to the event.

  • Donald Trump's second inauguration will be held indoors at the Capitol Rotunda due to freezing temperatures, marking the coldest Inauguration Day in 40 years.
  • The Supreme Court has upheld a TikTok ban set to take effect Sunday unless the app is sold to American buyers, leaving its fate to the incoming administration.
  • Protests are planned across Washington, D.C., including the People's March, which focuses on reproductive rights, environmental issues, and opposition to Trump's policies.
  • High-profile Democrats, including Michelle Obama and Nancy Pelosi, have announced they will not attend the inauguration, citing personal and political reasons.
