Thousands of flags creating a “Field of Flags” are seen on the National Mall ahead of Joe Biden’s swearing-in inauguration ceremony as the 46th US president in Washington on January 18, 2021. With war-zone-like security, no crowds and coronavirus distancing for guests, Joe Biden’s swearing-in as the 46th US president will be a muted affair unlike any previous inauguration. Where Washington is normally packed with hundreds of thousands of supporters, celebrities, socialites and lobbyists, the US capital is eerily quiet ahead of Biden’s big day, which promises to be a mostly televised celebration of democracy.
