The nation’s five living presidents gathered to honor former President Jimmy Carter in a pomp-filled funeral service at the Washington National Cathedral, a moment of solemn respite from the capital city’s political tensions and preparations for a new administration.

Jimmy Carter, the late U.S. president who served only one term in office and was widely admired for his humanitarian work after leaving the White House, was remembered during his state funeral on Thursday as a man who put honesty and kindness above partisan politics.

President-elect Donald Trump attended late President Jimmy Carter's funeral alongside other political rivals like President Biden, former President Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vice President Kamala Harris.
