I believe days into the term which started on Jan 20th. Otherwise we'd be at 160s instead of 140s

Looking at the Crowd Counting Consortium data it's a little higher than 2017, but much less than 2025. At 140 days into office Biden's total was at 8150 (with 1020 of them taking place before he took office)
