President Donald Trump delivered an address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday, outlining his policy agenda to an audience of lawmakers, high-profile guests, and family members.

On Monday, the White House announced the theme of Trump's speech would be "The Renewal of the American Dream."

Here's a recap of the biggest moments of the night in photos.

Trump Jr. and Anderson, a Palm Beach socialite, model, and the founder of the wildlife conservation nonprofit Project Paradise, were first linked in September. Trump Jr. was previously engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle.

"Pink is a color of protest & power. We're sending a message: Trump's policies are devastating women," California Rep. Judy Chu wrote on X.

The raised fist has become the president's signature pose following the assassination attempt he faced in July at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Early on in Trump's address, Rep. Al Green of Texas was escorted out of the House chamber when he disrupted the speech.

"Thank you, Elon. You're working very hard," Trump said.

"We need Greenland for national security and even international security, and we're working with everybody involved to try and get it," Trump said. "But we need it really for international world security. And I think we're going to get it one way or the other."

Trump also used his speech to acknowledge several guests in the crowd, including the widow and daughters of Corey Comperatore, a firefighter who was fatally shot while shielding his family from gunfire during the assassination attempt against Trump in Pennsylvania.

At many points during the speech, the Republican side of the House chamber stood while the Democratic side remained seated.

Trump's speech lasted 1 hour and 40 minutes, making it the longest-ever joint address to Congress.
