Now how long do you think before they connect Riley Williams to someone higher up. I don't think she acted alone, more on orders from someone inside the Republican party.

No sign of that yet.

It sounds like she was radicalised online, but there is a question for me over the role and influence of her father.

It will be interesting to see how the story develops thats for sure.

It's just occurred to me that what I think many of us here in the US is akin to the feeling an abused spouse feels when they know that tomorrow they're leaving. You know it, you can see and taste it, but there's just that tiny piece in the back of your mind that won't let you believe it is really going to happen.

I think it'll be 'real' to me when Scrotus lifts off from Andrews.

Gosh I hope that (good) analogy doesn't carry too far.... for an abused woman the most dangerous time is when you're leaving.

Thanks Arr and all of you good people here.

Thanks for the new thread

Heck, Across yes. It's been a long long 4 years.

Watching CNN and seeing the thousands of flags behind the presenter talking, there is not a breath of air, the flags aren't moving whilst it's blowing an absolute hooley here!

I think tomorrow is going to be a very moving day for hundreds of millions of people.
It's like closing an awful book.

@JanuaryChill

Too true. And that's in the back of my mind, too.

I can only hope and pray he doesn't set the WH on fire as he leaves. Figuratively OR literally!

I am not going to believe it or tempt fate until the oath has been taken. I intend to watch with my 6 year old but im also apprehensive about 'what if something happens' live on air too.

Its such a weird feeling and im very nervous still.

I bet Biden doesn't get much sleep tonight. And boy does he need it with the amount of work he's got ahead of him.

I just love this tweet.

I have a message for all the little girls and boys out there who dream of growing up to be superheroes: Superheroes walk among us.

They’re teachers, doctors, scientists, vaccine researchers—and you can grow up to be like them too.

I bring .

By this time tomorrow, we may want or need .

Thanks for the new thread. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. The weather is appalling so I think I'll settle down with a jigsaw and CNN.

Is CNN the best one to watch? The ad gaps drive me mad, but I'm not sure any other live stream will be better.

Whatever about Trump not going to the inauguration tomorrow, I'm shocked that Airforce 1 wasn't sent to bring Biden to Washington . That seems even more petty (presuming there isn't a better reason to break protocol).

I was just panicking because I thought: if it starts at 11:30, I'll have to leave work really early.

OR I could remember that I live in the UK 🤦

De-lurking to say thanks for all the fab threads.

The memorial we beautiful and simple.

Looking forward to tomorrow and 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 there will be no trouble.

Checking in. The memorial service was beautiful. Can you imagine being the nurse, singing in front of so many people? I seem to recall even Beyonce didn't sing live at one of Obama's inaugurations?

Biden was originally going to go to Washington by train (cancelled due to security fears) so I guess they booked it for the Trumps.

I think it might be fairly common for the outgoing POTUS to use AF1 to travel home after they leave office.

CNN interviewing the nurse and her jumper has St Joes's on it (name of the hospital?) - very fitting 😆

I think it'll be 'real' to me when Scrotus lifts off from Andrews.

Tell me about it, roll on!

Today is a day for the history books!!! Trump leaves the white house today 🎉🎉🎉🎉
