WASHINGTON (AP) Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th president of the United States on Wednesday, summoning American resilience to confront a historic confluence of crises and urging people to come together to end an “uncivil war” in a nation deeply divided after four tumultuous years
Declaring that “democracy has prevailed,” Biden took the oath at a U.S. Capitol that had been battered by an insurrectionist siege just two weeks earlier.
Goodman was seen in photos and video fending off an angry mob inside the Capitol building on Jan. 6 as lawmakers tried to certify Electoral College votes.
