Donald Trump took the presidential oath for a second time at the Capitol.
WASHINGTON -- President Donald Trump returned from a campaign-style rally at a Washington, D.C., arena to the White House to sign more executive orders, including a sweeping one that pardoned those convicted of storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Earlier after taking the oath of office and events at the Capitol, Trump spoke to a roaring crowd at Capital One Arena, where he also signed several executive orders.
Now that he's finished signing the orders, Trump is attending several inaugural balls.

Following his remarks, Trump sat down at a desk in the Capital One Arena to sign what he previewed as a wide range of executive orders.
The first order rescinded 78 Biden-era executive actions, executive orders, presidential memoranda and others.
The crowd booed loudly when Trump brought up Joe Biden's last-minute pardons for members of his family.
"Did you know that Biden, while I was making my speech, pardoned his whole family? The brother. The whole deal was pardoned. Can you imagine that?" Trump said.
"Most of those bureaucrats are being fired. They are gone," Trump said.
He also said he will force thousands of federal employees to return to in-person work.
Trump is running through many of his campaign promises, some of which will be easier to accomplish than others.
"I'm revoking nearly 80 destructive radical executive actions of the previous administration," he said.
Almost immediately after Trump took the stage, he said he would be signing pardons for Jan. 6 rioters.
"Tonight, I'm going to be signing on the J6 hostages, pardons to get them out," Trump said. "And as soon as I leave, I'm going to the Oval Office and we'll be signing pardons for a lot of people. A lot of people."
