Inauguration Day was March 4th until the 1930s. That's why they picked the day.

The Marshalls office posted it today because it's the anniversary of the event. It's "this day in history".

There is nothing wrong with providing historical facts, particularly on the anniversary of those facts. We're not going to purge history for a bunch of dipshits.

Just a friendly reminder from the US Marshals Office,.... magicarpet Feb 2021 #7

No. They are simply commemorating the beginning of Lincoln's journey Ocelot II Feb 2021 #9

It looks like they took down the original tweet. Beakybird Feb 2021 #8

I saw numerous people alerting the Marshall's Office, so maybe that prompted the removal. Nevilledog Feb 2021 #12

Took it down,... no shit,.. magicarpet Feb 2021 #13

Please note, it's not the only "on this date" post in their Twitter account. scarletwoman Feb 2021 #11

Good point. Duly noted. Beakybird Feb 2021 #15

That was my first thought: Do they post "on this date" notices often? . . . Journeyman Feb 2021 #17
