I had a meeting, so I didn’t see all the introductions. Do I see Pelosi there? I’m surprised they don’t have her locked up in a bunker today.
I didn’t see the entrance of Elizabeth Warren but she posted a pic of herself and Bruce on Facebook and she’s wearing a big pink Planned Parenthood scarf 
And yes, Nancy Pelosi is there.
There is a designated survivor.
Those screens around the speaker don’t seem tall enough to me.
I’ve not been able to confirm it, but some years ago I read that the bandmaster at Fort Knox – site of a lot of ceremonies – got into trouble for his music choices. The band would play a rousing march when the visiting dignitaries would arrive but unfortunately some general was also a circus buff and recognized the tune, Here Come the Clowns.
Is there a thread or other posts about that? Because there’s no actual Cabinet yet, right? And since Ossoff and Warnock aren’t sworn in until 3 today, next on the list would be Grassley.
Corinthian leather.
The designated survivor is from the trump administration. They did mention who it was earlier, I can’t remember, the person was way down the pecking order.
It’s unfortunate that all of the Marine Corp’s favorite fanfares have been co-opted by circuses over the last 100 years.
Interesting - thank you.
I’m looking forward to Lady Gaga singing the National Anthem!
ETA: What the heck is she wearing? 
An emergency shelter in case violence breaks out?
A dress featuring a large gold dove holding an olive branch? Not the worst sartorial choice for the day, I’d say…
Man, she got some pipes.
The Space Force flag still looks stupid.
Is that a Mockingjay from “Hunger Games” that Lady Gaga is wearing?
Brian
I thought Lady Gaga was in a solid outfit earlier? To be honest, the thoughts of my conservative relatives losing it over her presence pleases me. She can wear whatever she wants, and she did a great job singing!
National anthem Now I’m tearing up.
Lovely! The dress is ick.
What, you think she’d dress boringly?
Like her fancy earpiece
BTW band of bad weather passing, clearing now across the river.
That was well done.
