Can't speak for the rest of you political junkies but today is dizzying

[malaise]

We're now off to the Senate where Vice President Kamala Harris will swear in three new Senators.

[FakeNoose]

1. It's coming together nicely!

[lisa58]

5. Unlike the qanon plan

[Blue_playwright]

6. Tee hee!

[malaise]

11. Oh Yes

[servermsh]

2. I agree. Taking over the Senate today, because of runoff elections, is dizzying

Normally we would have taken (or not taken) the Senate on January 3rd. Here we had runoff elections so we don't actually take the Senate until today.

[lisa58]

3. I've been tearing up all day - so overwhelmed with the...

...reality of the day - and the ‘reality’ show guy magically gone

[malaise]

15. Kamala speaking now

Well sharing that infectious laugh with us
Oath of office time

[lisa58]

17. Tearing up again

[BlueIdaho]

4. We were promised a day of action.

I hope we also get a Presidential signing ceremony and maybe a White House press conference.

[lisa58]

7. Press conference at 7 eastern time

[BlueIdaho]

10. Oh Sweet!

Thank You!

[durablend]

8. Why haven't they been arrested yet?!?!?

Q is becoming restless!!!!

[malaise]

16. ROFL

Well we just took the Senate

[MineralMan]

9. Yes. Back to business,

and is there a lot of it.

[monmouth4]

12. I don't know about them but I'm already exhausted. I think they're all going to sleep well tonight.

[malaise]

21. Didn't walk this morning so I'll do an hour on the stationary bike

at 7.00pm.
And if we're tired can you imagine those literally involved in the proceedings.

[Auggie]

13. Yeah, but dizzying means good stuff is happening

Comparing today to four years ago and Trump's creepy inauguration.

[malaise]

23. Oh Yes - first it was relief watching that monster leave then sheer joy

Four years ago I was just pissed, fully aware of what was to come.
Today I don't want to miss anything.

[MontanaMama]

14. So happy.

But honestly, I'm exhausted!! I could hardly breathe until The Prez and the VP were safely tucked indoors.

[malaise]

19. Leahy is now President pro tempore

Oh Yes!

[MontanaMama]

20. Yes he is.

A change is gonna come.

[onetexan]

33. Joy Reid said that out loud that she was nervous too when they were walking in the parade.

She spoke for the rest of us apparently. Same here i was very relieved during that time, same as when the Obamas walks during their inauguration as well.

[liberalmuse]

18. This is an amazing day for sure.

Everything was just beautiful at the Inauguration. And I was absolutely stunned by Michelle Obama's purple suit. I'm not a fashionista, but that was the coolest outfit I've seen in a long time and she rocked the hell out of it. Not to mention how great Madam VP and Dr. Biden looked as well. I know that's superficial, but it was just icing on the huge celebration cake.

[malaise]

26. I don't find fashion superficial

We all like to look our best.
I'm watching everything tired or not.

[liberalmuse]

32. Glad to hear it!

I'm working from home so will do a more in-depth look at the Inauguration Day celebrations when I'm done. Those 3 ladie's outfits caught my eye (along with Lady Gaga's).

[FakeNoose]

30. All the women looked great

Michelle, Jill, Nancy, Kamala, Hillary, Amy, and everyone dressed nicely and respectfully.
Happy to see them ALL wearing masks too!

[onetexan]

34. i thought Mrs O's outfit was burgundy, & that Hillary's was purple, & the VP's outfit a stunning

shade between purple & deep blue. All of them looked lovely as usual.

[stillcool]

22. it's like every holiday ever celebrated

rolled into one, with a tinge of bitter-sweetness.

[H2O Man]

24. Recommended.

Heck of a day!

[Chainfire]

25. I have been in the recliner since daybreak watching the events unfold.

I now have a sense of calm that has escaped me for some time.

The adults are back in charge. Qanon is dazed and confused, and the people who have sworn that Biden would never enter office have been slam-dunked. Biden is working to de-Trump policies and Harris is swearing in new Democrats.

It was a good day for America.

[malaise]

27. That's for sure - a great day

and it isn't over yet.

Press Conference at 7.00pm

[Chainfire]

31. The darker side of me is also thrilled that a lot of people are having a horrible day.

All of the people that did not want a peaceful transfer of power. The deniers that Biden would ever assume the office, the haters that though they could bully their way around the Constitution, The Q bunch, White Supremist under which ever banner they follow, are in shock. Many of them are arriving at the conclusion that they have been lied to and played for suckers.

I know I should be above such feelings, but after four years, I am taking pleasure in their discomfort.

[pfitz59]

28. We've got to ramp up for 2022

And oust all the GOP traitors in the House and Senate. The videos of the Capitol invasion should be useful in every campaign. They own it. Not too early to start hammering away.

[Irish_Dem]

29. I know, all of it is overwhelming. So much happening.

And so joyous.

[Tommymac]

35. What happened to the Virtual Parade?

Better half and I have been waiting for it...

[malaise]

36. Don't know but I'm watching the virtual swearing in of Political Appointees

on M$NBComcast

[Buckeye_Democrat]

37. The Biden team is acting FAST!
