Questions and observations: First: hope that all speakers were tested negative

All were too close to the microphone

Second: what will happen to all the flags?

Third: have the president and V.P. always sworn by different justices?

Fourth: were the traitors - Cruz and Hawley - there?

Fifth: what is the history of the Bible under Biden’s hand?

Sixth: no hand shaking with the justices, for obvious reaso,

Last: “Decency and Dignity” vs. “Carnage” - need to say more?

I saw someone wipe down the podium between every speaker.

And with such a stiff wind the threat of contagion is less, but of course it's always best to err on the side of caution.

Many of them have probably been vaccinated (Harris and Biden for sure), and they were outside, reducing the risk considerably.

Flags will probably be donated or recycled.

The Chief Justice always swears in the president; sometimes others swear in the VP.

Cruz was there, not sure about Hawley.

The Bible was an old Biden family Bible.
