How come everyone in the picture has a blue tie on, including Barron? Is this some kind of a secret MAGA decoder ring?

Since Biden was also wearing a blue tie and his wife was wearing a blue coat, I have to say no. 😎

  1. Oh my! “My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over.” — Gerald R. Ford, newly sworn-in as POTUSA on the 9th of August 1974 A.D. Having lived through that period (b. 1960), I can bear witness that it wasn’t that easy, needed about another decade, even until that cold January day (1985), to get past that awful period.
  2. Glorious photo! Never seen Chief Justice John Roberts so radiantly saintlike. Seems to be blinding the (outgoing) VPOTUSA? Incoming FLOTUSA is all-hat-no-cattle & near-incognita but for the Holy Books thereby levitated. The outgoing FLOTUSA flashes her best ‘if looks could kill’ … And of course the ex-POTUSA grins like the cat who just ate the WH bird(s) …
  3. … in his infirmity — and his impunity — the joy of immunity — grants Oh Pardon Me!
  4. Then in the next moments, a spectacle best described as “watching [DJT] indict these gangsters to their faces while they had to sit right in front of him in that intimate setting in the rotunda.” Amen, Brother!
  5. Mañana? “[DJT] will reportedly declare a National Energy Emergency to boost American energy production and lower energy prices.” On top of Day-One orders to revoke the EV-mandate, end the GND, and re-exit the we’ll-always-have-Paris.

I love it! I bet Joe Biden and wife hated it, but they had to sit there and listen to it.

Great speech from President Trump!

Whether people recognise it now or not, this is an important moment in history. The fate of the Western world, it’s culture, science, democracy & other accomplishments, literally, looks brighter and more hopeful than it did just 2 months ago.

He really is the man for this moment and we should all be grateful that he won.

We’re not going to do the wind thing.

Now let’s hope we can get Farage in to make the same statement before our islands sink into the sea underneath the weight all the Labour party hypocrisy.
