Inauguration Day is both tradition and ceremony; Donald Trump will officially take over Executive control of the country amid highly choreographed ceremonies on Jan. 20. It starts in the morning when the current president — President Joe Biden, in this case — welcomes the incoming president at the White House.

Musk, the owner of car manufacturer Tesla and social media platform X, has been tapped by Trump to lead the proposed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), with biotech entrepreneur and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, after vocally supporting and financially backing his campaign for president.

A fake Truth Social post circulated as Trump told a crowd at AmericaFest: "He’s not going to be president, that I can tell you."
