Presidents of the United States

 For a final time, outgoing US President Donald Trump has left the White House and made his way to Joint Base Andrews on Wednesday, just about an hour prior to the Inauguration Day of President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.

"I love the American people. This is a goodbye, but I hope it's not a goodbye forever," Trump told reporters shortly. He left the White House with his wife Melania.

Trump began his address by saying: "My fellow Americans: Four years ago, we launched a great national effort to rebuild our country, to renew its spirit, and to restore the allegiance of this government to its citizens. In short, we embarked on a mission to make America great again — for all Americans".

Western democracies must win back control of the boundaries of public debate from social media giants, Marietje Schaake suggests in an exclusive interview with Kathimerini.

Namely, his work is supported by only 34 percent of Americans, according to the results of the Gallup poll.
The agency reminds that Trump's average rating during the mandate was 41 percent, which is four percent less than all his predecessors since Gallup started collecting data, the AFP agency reported on its Twitter account.

U.S. President-elect Joe Biden's spokeswoman quickly dismissed Donald Trump's announcement on Jan. 18 that a COVID-19 ban on travelers arriving from much of Europe and Brazil would be lifted, underlining the fractious transition of power.

In 2019, John Kiriakou, a former CIA analyst and case officer jailed for revealing to a reporter the use of waterboarding in the interrogation of al-Qaeda suspects, sought a pardon from President Donald Trump. This had been revealed then by the Washington Times.

Members of the lower house of the American Congress accused Trump of inciting a rebellion before the intrusion of part of his supporters into the Capitol Hill complex.

YouTube has removed a new video uploaded to President Trump's account for violating the company's content policies on inciting violence. The account has also been issued a "strike" and is unable to upload new content for at least a week. It's presently unclear exactly which video prompted the action on Trump's account, or what it contained.

Republicans offered only modest reproach when President Donald Trump said there were "very fine people" on both sides of a white supremacist rally. They stayed in line when Trump was caught pressuring a foreign leader and later defended his handling of a deadly pandemic.
