A historic day in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday with Joe Biden being sworn in as the 46th president of the United States. While the attack on the U.S. Capitol and the COVID-19 pandemic made attendance an all-time low, there was no shortage of memorable moments from the Presidential Inauguration. Here are some of the reactions from the event that welcomed Biden back to Washington on Twitter.

A lot of people commented on how cozy Sen. Bernie Sanders looked with his puffy coat and mittens. The moment has now been deemed meme-worthy by the masses.

13. Where can we find light in this never-ending shade?
“Where can we find light/In this never-ending shade?" Amanda Gorman asked as she began her poem at President Biden's #Inauguration. The country’s first National Youth Poet Laureate referenced everything from Biblical scripture to “Hamilton." https://t.co/t1NZwhReKM
