On January 20, 2025, Donald J. Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States, marking his return to the White House for a second, non-consecutive term.
"America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate," Trump said early on Wednesday to a roaring crowd of supporters at the Palm Beach County Convention Center in Florida.
Democrats from across the country re-affirmed their nomination of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to the presidential ticket on the second day of the party's convention.
Minnesota Democrats know Tim Walz's affable personality, but they want to see their governor use his DNC speech to tell the nation more on what he's about.
Wiping away tears after being introduced by his daughter Ashley, Biden waved to the crowd that held signs saying, "We (heart) Biden." Beaming, he responded, "I love YOU."

“We’ve got 78 days of hard work,” Gov. Tim Walz told Wisconsin delegates in a surprise appearance Monday at the Democratic National Convention. “We can sleep when we’re dead.”
Sen. Amy Klobuchar and Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan appeared at a breakfast event held Minnesota's DNC delegation, rallying up the delegates ahead of Monday's main session.
This year's Democratic National Convention will feature a presidential triple-header, as well as council and caucus meetings and other events hosted by some of America's leading Democrats.
The Minnesota governor, and now vice presidential candidate, has often talked about his service in the National Guard. Now others are talking about it too, and not always in glowing terms.
