Vice President-elect Harris was sworn in ahead of Mr Biden – becoming the first woman and the first black and Asian-American person elevated to serve in a role a heartbeat from the presidency.
The inauguration took place at the U.S. Capitol. Security had been beefed up after the building was stormed by violent pro-Trump protesters in a deadly riot on the 06th of January.
