Trump's January 20 Inauguration Moved Indoors Due to Expanded Security Concerns
Jan 18, 2025, 11:32 PM
In anticipation of President-elect Donald J. Trump's inauguration on January 20, 2025, security measures have been heightened around Washington D.C. The U.S. Secret Service has expanded the Initial Security Perimeter around the National Mall and other key locations. Reports suggest that the decision to move the inauguration ceremony indoors was influenced by security concerns, particularly due to the risks associated with open spaces near the U.S. Capitol. Sources within the Secret Service indicated that there were credible threats to Trump's safety, prompting the change from an outdoor to an indoor venue. This move has led to widespread closures around Capitol Hill, the Washington Convention Center, and the White House as part of the security preparations for the event.
