It was to be the party of democracy in the presence and, instead, it will be a television show broadcast in streaming. Due to the restrictions imposed by the pandemic and the riots that could invade Capitol Hill as happened last January 6 on the occasion of the vote of confidence, Joe Biden’s inauguration ceremony as 46th president of the United States of America will be the most armored and restricted in the last hundred years: if more than a million people were present at that of Barack Obama and that of Trump more than 300 thousand, Biden will be satisfied with just a thousand selected attendees and a conspicuous connection by spectators, Americans and from all over the world, through the television and streaming channels.
Beyond the official channels of the Network, from YouTube to Facebook, from Twitter to Twitch, Biden’s settlement will be broadcast in America on major TV networks, from ABC News to CNN, from NBC to Fox, and on major platforms, such as Amazon Prime Video and Fox’s NewsNOW starting at 5.30pm Italian time.

Following the Italian time, it all starts around 2pm, when Donald Trump will officially take his leave of Washington, boarding the presidential helicopter bound for Andrews base in Maryland for the last time. In the meantime, the White House will prepare for the transition from one administration to another and then open the dance around 5.30 pm.

At 7.30pm Biden will move from the West Front of Capitol Hill to the East Front, respecting the tradition that sees in the walk of the president and the first lady a way to examine the troops deployed for the occasion. After the visit to Arlington Cemetery to pay homage to the tomb of the unknown soldier, unlike in previous years, there will be no no parade and no inaugural ball, which will be replaced, in fact, by the special TV hosted by Hanks.
