A day to remember.

Great contrast of a public servant and an insurrectionist.

You've created a great visual take on history here. To think that the convicted felon is getting a second chance to destroy the US is a nightmare that just won't go away!

I am dreading the trampling of our constitution, and the decay and tyranny this next administration is going to impose. I will not watch anything about the certification of votes today or the inauguration. Why give attention to a tyrant? A petty tyrant, who is angry that flags are flying half staff for President Jimmy Carter. Plus lying about how this is the first inauguration that has flags at half staff. His petty fellow Republicans who are not following decency and honor by refusing half staff protocol are equal reprobates. Thank you, Michael, for continuing to draw truth.

I’ve been praying that on Inauguration Day (which I think of as Foreboding Day) Washington, DC, gets inundated with snow. No one (or very few) show up and once again any aerial photo will show the truth that he’s a LOSER. These are the things that Loserboy has no control over nor does his unelected second hand. Anyone know if hordes of people with kazoos and other noisemakers are still planning to attend and disrupt things? God, I hope so.

Noisemakers & kazoos? I love it! What a great idea.🔥😂 Why pay respect to someone so undeserving. To anyone choosing that path, be safe!

Hard to believe 4 years have passed since the other 'date which will live in infamy' occurred.

"Just a year ago many Republicans joined Democrats in reacting with horror to the Capitol insurrection, denouncing both the violence perpetrated by the rioters and the role played by former President Donald Trump in stoking the outrage that fueled their actions with lies about a "stolen" election." -Jill Colvin, Associated Press

If January 6th 2021 was as claimed, a day of "legitimate political discourse", then they are cowards and liars who have no right to represent 'We the people'. Every Republican who ran for cover in fear, and who have supported Donald Trump ever since, should be drummed out of government.

I know that President and Mrs Biden will leave an orderly house. I try to temper my dread of what could possibly happen post-January 20th, with the hope that constitutional guardrails and legal impediments can constrain Trump's worst instincts.

🇺🇸 May the memory and legacy of the late President Jimmy Carter continue to be honored and respected during this time of national mourning. 🇺🇸

The difference between a professional and a dilettante playing one is, people get hurt.
