We’ll have more than two dozen reporters and visual journalists covering the events in real time, starting early Monday morning.

Inauguration Day is nearly here. President Biden on Monday will be handing over power to President-elect Donald J. Trump at the U.S. Capitol in Washington.
After the day’s ceremonial events, shifted indoors because of cold weather, Mr. Trump is expected to sign a series of executive orders. The night will end with inaugural balls.
We’ll have live coverage starting early in the morning and continuing into the night, with more than two dozen reporters and visual journalists on the ground and more poised to report on executive orders and gather reaction from around the country.
What time is the inauguration and where is it happening?
Mr. Trump’s swearing-in ceremony will begin at 12 p.m. Eastern, but the action will start earlier, as the Trumps arrive for morning services at St. John’s Church in Washington.
The swearing-in will now happen inside the Capitol Rotunda. It will be the first time the ceremony has taken place inside since 1985, when Ronald Reagan was inaugurated for his second term. Bitter cold conditions prompted that move, too.
Mr. Trump, in announcing the change in plans on Friday, also effectively canceled the traditional parade, noting that guests would be invited to view the inaugural proceedings at the nearby Capital One Arena. He said he would join them there after the ceremony.
