With Neil Gorsuch sworn in as the 101st associate justice on Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court has finally ended its trying 422-day stint as an eight-member body. Part of the ceremony took place at the White House, a practice that has been frowned on in the past because of its partisan hue.

All other sitting justices also attended the Rose Garden ceremony.
