The second inauguration of Donald J. Trump will be remembered forever, with Joe Biden handing over power to the business mogul and the 47th President of the United States being officially sworn in.
There were some major names gathered at the Capitol Rotunda, and alongside former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama, there was also Kamala Harris and others from the wider world of pop culture.
Jake Paul, Joe Rogan, Dana White, and Caitlyn Jenner are among those in attendance, but one of the big talking points is the gathering of the tech bros. Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg, and Sam Altman are among the Silicon Valley bigwigs who've gathered to see Trump's return to the White House.

It's an occasion they'll likely remember for the rest of their lives, but unfortunately for one of them, they'll likely be remembered forever for the wrong reasons. Jeff Bezos is the second-richest man in the world, and with his $239.4 billion trailing far behind Elon Musk's $433.9 billion, he's got some catching up to do.
While attending Trump's inauguration, Bezos was caught on camera seemingly scooping ear wax out of his ear.
It might not be as bad as being caught picking his nose, but with the moment going viral on X, it's clear that many of you are disgusted by the billionaire's gross habit.
One disgusted onlooker said: "Just watched Jeff Bezos dig ear wax out of his ear for a full 30 seconds."
Another said, "Does Bezos know he just was just filmed digging earwax out…… 😭," while a third joked, "Bezos needs to buy a Wush earwax removal kit from Amazon. STAT."
Despite some beef in the past, Bezos has been cozying up to Trump more recently. He butted heads with Elon Musk when the latter claimed that Bezos said Trump was going to lose the election.
With Trump championing a more tech-orientated future, he's already vowed to clamp down on Chinese exports and bolster America's manufacturing market by having more tech made there.
This isn't all Trump is known for, with him expected to sign up to 200 executive orders on his first day. During his inauguration speech, he declared a 'national emergency' at the southern border, saying he would clamp down on immigration and reinstate his Remain in Mexico policy.
His speech also promised a boost to the American auto market, with Trump repealing the Green New Deal. Finally, his 'drill, baby, drill' motto wants America to become the biggest exporter of energy in the world.
Despite there being plenty of controversy surrounding some of Trump's ideals, parts of the economy are already soaring. Bitcoin has hit a record-breaking new high, while the world's richest have only gotten richer since he won the election.
Musk, Bezos, and the rest are set to see their bank balances continue to boom, although it seems that $239.4 billion can't buy you clean ears.
