Oh man, that had to have been a moving sight. I'm glad you got to see that.
The Biden Presidency

WTF, this is still going on!
Tuned out for a while thinking it was over.

He's only just become president!
Still got 4 more years
Just found a few pics, we were there for ages just wandering around so must’ve been a little later when the mist had cleared sadly.
We volunteer for the cleanup crew to remove the wreaths every year. It's funny because it completely lacks the ceremony that laying the wreaths do. We bring broom stick and slide as many wreaths as we can on the stick and carry them to the haul away dumpsters.
Whose the lovely lady in pink?
He’s light on his feet makes a nice difference from that fat feck
makes a nice difference from that fat feckAre you taking about presidents or players?He’s light on his feet
Depends, I hear Bill was quite the player.
Dread to think what he will look like in 4 years, considering how the job ages Presidents. He already looks ancient.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t make the full 4 to be honest.
What actual force goes with the racial equality one?
The Muslim Ban is rescinded.
To be fair I think 9 of those were just rescinding Trump EO’s
I hope he's like one of those rich uncles you're praying will die soon so you can get your inheritance but he'll refuse to kick the bucket.
Jen Psaki talking now
Biden's first foreign leader call as president will be with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday,
Well the new press secretary is certainly an upgrade.
Not combative
Sharp remarks here although I do find the tradition of ceremonial oath taking for bureaucratic roles a little weird.
I really doubt this will heat up in the slightest, as I don't think Trudeau actually cares. For his government, focus is on building the TransMountain pipeline, which the Canadian government bought and will now want to see become profitable. The Canadian oil sector might not even need more than that and the Line 3 pipeline (as discussed here). However, Trudeau has to express this disappointment for the Canadian audience, as this is a big thing in the Prairies and the Liberals are already perceived as weak (or simply: evil) on the issue. So I think he's talking to Canadians here, and may not even bring this up with Biden on Friday (except if it's to make sure it appears in Canadian news reports afterwards).
Canada also has a public service oath: "I, ________, swear (or solemnly affirm) that I will faithfully and honestly fulfil the duties that devolve on me by reason of my employment in the public service of Canada and that I will not, without due authority, disclose or make known any matter that comes to my knowledge by reason of such employment. (Add, in the case where an oath is taken, “So help me God” (or name of deity).)"
Anyone want to start a sweepstakes as to when Kamala takes over presidential duties?
While he watches countdown
Great job by Springsteen with an excellent song choice to kick off the celebration tonight.
actually good stuff, though i think the pipeline didnt progress much even with 4 years of trump and zinke. would be good if now he held back on the insane prosecutions of DAPL protestors.
obligatory feck trudeau.
Hmm

that john harwood tweet is so embarrassing
Wow the star power for this inauguration is stunning, Trump must be extremely angry he couldn't get the same support.
You really think the narcist would have wanted to share his special night with anyone who might be considered more famous than him?
Trump’s inaugural events were “headlined” by B and C players.
The real stars show up for the Dems.
