WASHINGTON — President Trump declared Monday “liberation day” for the country, vowing in a rousing inaugural speech that “the golden age of America begins right now.” The 47th president — roundly repudiating the Biden administration’s lefty legacy and “many years” of a “radical and corrupt establishment’’ — promised to bring about a “revolution of common sense. “From this moment on, America’s decline is over,” Trump, 78, told the packed crowd gathered inside the Capitol Rotunda for a pared-down event because of the dangerously cold weather outside. “There’s no nation like our nation. Americans are explorers, builders, innovators, entrepreneurs and pioneers....

They wouldn’t allow his father to leave the country to attend,so he filled in and did great!

MSNBC host Chris Hayes said Monday during President Donald Trump’s inaugural address that he seemed like “the cult leader taking a mulligan and telling you paradise is around the corner again.” Hayes said, “I remember being in that on that stage right next to President Barack Obama during that very, very cold morning. And the two inaugurations of Barack Obama and Joe Biden happened at moments of palpable, ubiquitous, and severe crisis, the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, the worst pandemic in 100 years. I mean, thousands of Americans dying by the day, America not knowing whether the...

After President Donald Trump is sworn in on January 20, he will then sit down for a luncheon at the U.S. Capitol hosted by the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies (JCCIC). But what’s on the menu? While the exact details for the 2025 event have yet to be released, if history is any proof, diners can expect to be served a three-course meal featuring a seafood dish, a meat entrée and a dessert – probably with ice cream. As Trump now calls Florida home, it would not be a surprise to see dishes influenced by the Sunshine State’s legendary...

Since his victory in November, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s allies have raised well over $200 million for a constellation of groups that will fund his inauguration, his political operation and eventually his presidential library, according to four people involved in the fund-raising. It is a staggering sum that underscores efforts by donors and corporate interests to curry favor with Mr. Trump ahead of a second presidential term after a number of business leaders denounced him following the violence by his supporters at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Mr. Trump has promised to gut the “deep state” and made various...

Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) explains why he invited the corrupt Manhattan judge who oversaw former President Donald Trump’s criminal trial which ended in 12 jurors finding him guilty go 34 counts of felony charges which should have otherwise been misdemeanors. The Republican is so confident that Trump will beat President Joe Biden in November and continue his legacy in the White House that he invited Judge Juan Merchan to take a front row seat at the historical event. “My view of inviting him to the inauguration is to show my recognition that what Merchan is doing unintentionally is re-electing… Donald...

WASHINGTON -- Now that the festivities are over, it is time for the masters of the media to stop asking inane questions of the new folks in town -- such as, "How do you like your new office?" -- and for the Obama administration to get down to work on a clear and present danger. Notwithstanding the "day one" and "first week" coverage, the most pressing issue confronting the American people isn't closing "Gitmo" or the always ephemeral "Mideast peace process" in the aftermath of Gaza or even "fixing the economy." Item No. 1 ought to be preventing the world's...

I rate Donald Trump along with Ike, Kennedy, Nixon and The Gipper as one of the best five American presidents of my lifetime. (I was born in 1957 on a day when Andy Williams "Butterfly" was on top of the charts.) I believe that what the Trump Presidency did for America and for the Western World would never have happened if he had not had smart beautiful women who loved him in his family and at his side. Words and images which I believe prove this can be seen by clicking the link in red type below the title of...

Fox News anchor Chris Wallace on Wednesday praised President Joe Biden’s inaugural address. Wallace said, “I thought it was a great speech. I’ve been listening to these inaugural addresses since 1961. John F. Kennedy, ‘Ask not.’ I thought this was the best inaugural address I have ever heard. Obviously, a lot of this event today, a lot of the president’s speech was colored by the emotion of the fact that exactly two weeks ago, 14 days ago, there was a mob of thugs of insurrectionists, of domestic terrorists on the inaugural stand. Joe Biden was saying democracy prevailed. We were...

John Roberts @johnrobertsFox .@KenCuccinelli says DC @MayorBowser requested crew-served machine guns be included in the National Guard's arsenal to protect the capital.

A rehearsal for President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration scheduled for Sunday has been postponed due to security concerns in the nation’s capital, according to reports. The rehearsal will be held Monday instead, Politico reported. Security has been boosted across Washington, D.C. since the deadly riot earlier this month at the Capitol. The Capitol complex has been locked down, and more than 20,000 National Guard troops are expected to be deployed ahead of the inauguration on Wednesday. More than a dozen D.C. Metro stations will be closed to the public in the days leading up to and following January 20. The FBI...

Joe Biden said Thursday it is important President Donald Trump attend his inauguration to deliver public testimony to the nation’s commitment to a peaceful transfer of power between political rivals. “Important in only one sense,” Biden told CNN’s Jake Tapper by way of qualification, when asked of the significance of Trump attending his inauguration.

I have assembled a comparison of President Washington's first Inaugural Address in 1789 with Donald Trump's equivalent: https://freedom-demokrasi-and-civilised-humanity.com/2020/05/01/washington-and-trump/ Who was the better communicator? Which president was more democratic?

MOSCOW (Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin traveled to his inauguration on Monday for a new six-year term in a Russian-made limousine, ditching his old stretch Mercedes to send a patriotic message of self-sufficiency amid increased tensions with the West.Putin, in power since 2000, wants Russia to reduce its dependence on imported goods and technology, a drive that has gathered pace since Russia was hit by Western sanctions. Some guests broke into applause at the sight of the car conveying Putin the short distance from his office to the Kremlin hall for the inauguration, Russian news agencies said.“It’s cooler than (U.S....

Trump-Pence Inaugural Celebration Money Bomb Thread What would we have done without FreeRepublic? We've fought, prayed, cried, laughed, shared, discussed, cursed, been banned, prayed more, laughed some more! Now we CELEBRATE ! What a celebration that will be: Cheers And Spirits for all! This year there will be no inaugural ball -- no way to pat each other on the back -- to personally thank Jim Robinson and family or the freepathon crew. Think of all the money you saved by not going to DC! Thus this thread. My cell phone limits me from posting beautiful graphics and pictures. They're...
