Phantom pain is pain that a person feels in a body part, usually a limb, that is no longer there. That’s kind of how yesterday’s Presidential Inauguration felt. The limb missing was the lack of supporters and even protestors at the event. BOTH are part of American democracy, and both were totally restricted from the Capitol Mall. The Inauguration is an American tradition, but regular Americans weren’t allowed to be a part. How wrong is that? How difficult could it have been to pull off an event that allowed people with 28,000 National Guard troops in place to keep the peace? Fireworks are great to see… in person. On television

But OP, the WHO has, as of today, changed the way they count covid cases and...miracle of miracles, the number of new cases is dropping like a ton of bricks. Imagine that!

The inauguration scene looked like a post apocalyptic venue of a communist state. Only some present and past functionaries of government left with flag symbols representing what? Unseen were razor wire, fencing and 25,000 troops with rifles and ammo ready to kill anyone whom they thought was a threat. The scene is reminiscent of Tiananmen square the day after the massacre there, all hosed down, bodies removed and sterile of humanity. A fitting start to the new administration.

The images of DC devoid of people reminded me of the old movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still. "Klaatu barada nikto".

America died yesterday. Death of the Republic by Constitutional suicide. Never thought I would see the day. I was sick to my stomach when Clinton was elected two times. I was even sicker to my stomach when Obama was elected twice. Right now I’m even sicker to my stomach and heart broken. I’m spiritually and mentally preparing for 8 years of hell ahead and even longer if things go the way they are planning. It’s not looking good. The Bill of Rights and Constitution are now historic relics kept in the National Archive Museum to be remembered as the greatest documents ever prepared. Now they are meaningless. Those that took a sworn oath of office to protect and defend them so help them God have all been guilty of felonious treasonous acts high crimes and misdemeanors. They all lied.

#4, I share your dismay and I pretty much felt the same way since Pence betrayed us on the 6th.
BUT...it's not over yet. 74 million+ Americans are mad as hell and are making it very loudly known to the Republicans in Congress. Plus, we still have President Trump! He may not be in power right now but he still has WTP behind him as long as we don't give up. I'm not sure if it will be a new political party being formed that most of us would join or an overthrow of the Republican Party, but WTP are not done yet. It may be a long 2 years while we regroup but most of us have no intention of going silently into the night. Keep the Faith!

Per #4:
Like a number of states, the Pennsylvania House wrote a petition, signed by a majority of its members, to implore VP Pence to DELAY any electoral certification for 7-10 days to allow the PA House to meet and discuss the issue of a stolen election.
Under PA Law, the State Representatives are on break through most of November and throughout December, unless convened by the governor.
The Leftist S-bag governor refused to convene the state legislature--because it was obvious that the state's vote was stolen. He just wanted to run out the clock behind his fraudulent vote count.
Since the state legislature could not constitutionally meet until after January 6th unless the Dem Governor allowed them to, they merely requested Pence delay the electoral certification until after January 6th,
Pence refused this simple, honorable request

Dementia Jo had a phantom campaign, so it only makes sense to have a phantom inauguration and a phantom presidency. William Henry Harrison set the mark for all of that.

They shut Trump off from communications for the last couple weeks because Trump overshadows Biden so much that Trump gets a million viewers without try, and Biden get less than 10. That will not change going forward either. Trump will find a platform, and he will overshadow. That is why the Democrats are anxious to destroy Trump.

The people didn't look real, no expression in their eyes, they walked around like zombies or the living dead, lifeless clowns...did I hear somewhere during the day The House of the rising Sun or close to it played in honor of HUNTER? Where was HUNTER? Even some of the soldiers turned their backs to this treacherous thug. Anyone see that?
