America is making Donald Trump president again, and the billionaire Republican is scheduled to be sworn into office around noon Eastern time.

Trump — who will be only the second U.S. president to serve nonconsecutive terms, after Grover Cleveland in the 1890s — is expected to go big on executive orders and other actions on his first day back in the White House, including ones that aim to roll back some of his predecessor’s policies. It will be similar to how Joe Biden targeted a number of Trump initiatives by rolling out a raft of orders on the day of his own presidential inauguration four years ago.
