    The west side of The Capitol is where Joe Biden will be sworn in as America's 46th President on Wednesday. This year's Inauguration will see far fewer people than previous ones, because of the security threat and closure of the National Mall, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic. Officials have actively discouraged people from coming to Washington, D.C. for the ceremony.
