In contrast, his 2017 inauguration experienced a relatively mild 48 degrees with light rain. While the day itself is expected to be dry, pre-inauguration snow or rain is possible.

Trump’s recent complaints about the US flags being flown at half-staff during his inauguration are, to put it mildly, perplexing. He seems to view this long-standing tradition of mourning a deceased former president as a personal slight, a deliberate attempt by his political opponents to overshadow his moment. His outrage, expressed through a social media post, paints a picture of a man deeply concerned with the optics of his own event, more so than the respectful remembrance of a former leader.
The fact that the flags will be at half-staff due to the death of President Jimmy Carter, a man who served the nation with a very different approach, adds another layer to the complexity of this situation.… Continue reading

America voted for a dumpster fire — Democrats just need to let it burn itself out. This sentiment, while seemingly callous, reflects a deep-seated frustration with a political climate where reasoned argument and factual evidence seem to hold little sway. The sheer scale of the current situation feels overwhelming, leaving many feeling powerless to stem the tide.
The idea of simply letting things play out until the inevitable consequences become undeniable might seem appealing from a certain perspective. After all, it’s easy to say “let it burn” when you aren’t directly threatened by the flames. But this approach ignores the devastating potential impact on crucial societal structures.… Continue reading

Ocasio-Cortez’s reaction to the collaboration between Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Marjorie Taylor Greene is undeniably noteworthy. She labeled the situation “actually hilarious,” a sentiment that reflects a widespread perception of the unlikely alliance. The humor, of course, stems from the starkly contrasting political ideologies and personalities involved.
The pairing of Musk and Ramaswamy, both known for their often controversial and disruptive approaches to business and politics, with Greene, a figure consistently associated with extreme conservative views, presents a fascinating, and to some, amusing juxtaposition. It suggests an intriguing strategic dynamic, perhaps a calculated attempt to shake up the existing political landscape.… Continue reading
