But who's counting? Althouse has the timer at Countdown.
At Power Line, The Week in Pictures: Two Days to Go! Althouse also finds "Trump is returning as a colossus." Writes Maureen Dowd, in "Trump Brings a Chill to Washington" (NYT) and "Many Americans who otherwise dislike President-elect Donald J. Trump share his bleak assessment of the country’s problems and support some of his most contentious prescriptions to fix them..." "... according to a new poll from The New York Times and Ipsos". At Hat Hair, Dave Strom finds projection among Democrats, Deep Question of the Week: Will Trump Execute Generals, Assassinate Media Figures? But that should scare us because it's insight into what they're planning. Dave Strom finds Democrats Now Threatening People Who Donated to Trump's Inauguration. Chris Rufo et al at City Journal worries Will the Left Disrupt the Inauguration? "A network of progressive groups and militants is preparing for battle." But NewsMax assures us Inauguration Protests Only Fraction of 2017.
At NewsMax, Sen. Ron Johnson tells Newsmax We Must Confirm Trump's Nominees. Teri Christoph at RedState worries about What Happens If We Don't Have a SecDef When Trump Takes Office on Monday? "Four years ago, Trump's deputy secretary of Defense, David Norquist, stayed on the job until Lloyd Austin was confirmed. If the Biden team won't offer the same courtesy, then it sounds like a plan is falling into place to ensure that the military might of the United States remains intact." Sundance at CTH hosts as Glenn Greenwald Gives Perspective on Tulsi Gabbard’s Changed Support for FISA-702. "Personally, given the change in position, the fallback position is to hope DNI Tulsi Gabbard moves to curtail the number of people with access to the database and provide demonstrable accountability for any unlawful use of it." Madeline Leesman at TownHall reports Kristi Noem Faces Off With Democrat Senators in Confirmation Hearing. Just shoot the dogs, Kristi. At NewsMax, Democrats Warm to Trump UN Nominee Stefanik.
Misty Severi at JTN reports First House Judiciary hearing to focus on border failures, two days after inauguration. Cremieux Recueil has Lessons About the Civil Service and Political Appointees. "What does history tell us about how the executive branch can run the government?" Trump effect? US News, Federal Reserve Says It Will Leave Climate Change Organization.

Absolutely brilliant answer.

Seriously this is how absolutely every single Republican must talk about deportations because this is the truth and this is where we are as a country because of the last four… pic.twitter.com/oyDK8MHJdl

At RedState, 'Bonchie' calls it
SCARY: Mike Johnson Recounts Meeting With Joe Biden, Shocks With Tale of
Senility and Subterfuge, details how Biden denied signing an order he had signed. "In other words,
someone had used subterfuge to get the President of the United States to sign
an executive order he didn't even know he was signing. Those around him were
weaponizing his senility to push through their far-left agenda, and Biden
wasn't even sentient enough to notice. That is the very definition of
shocking." Capt. Ed at Hat Hair, Johnson: Here's When I Knew Biden Wasn't Running Anything. The Maine Wire, We All Knew: Mike Johnson Meets Biden's 'I Didn't Do That!' John Ekdahl@JohnEkdahl, "Furthermore, his description of Schumer, Jeffries, Kamala, CIA Dir Burns,
etc all freezing in panic when Biden requested they clear the room so he
could 1-on-1 with Johnson confirms they were all in on the coverup." Hat Hair's John Sexton, How Biden's Inner Circle Managed His Decline. Sarah Arnold at TownHall, Melania Trump Slams Obamas for ‘Withholding’ Key Info During Transition. Sarah Hoyt asks Incompetence or Malice? Both of course.

WELL, BYE:
YouTube, at the Fourth Rail, Biden's SHOCKING Attempt to Amend the Constitution Overnight! Ed Whelan@EdWhelanEPPC "Guess who testified in October 2021 that the "President has no role" in the amendment process and "is not part of the amendment process"? Georgetown law prof Victoria Nourse." Quote Georgetown Law@GeorgetownLaw, "Congratulations to #GeorgetownLaw Professor @vicnourse on her decades of hard work advocating on behalf of women's rights and the Equal Rights Amendment #ERA, which Pres. Biden this morning said should be considered the law of the land. Read more: https://cnn.it/3CdaV5A" Beege Welborn adds John J. Vecchione@VecchTweets, "This is the biggest embarrasment for Georgetown Law since the persecution of @ishapiro . Do we have a professor who backs the "sovereign citizen" theory as well? John Eastman is being disbarred for a less crazy theory." Althouse, "In a political environment like this, you throw at the wall whatever you can." ""This is a political rather than a legal struggle.... It would succeed only in a different environment than we have.... The real question is what political message is being sent." Said lawprof Laurence Tribe, quoted in "Can He Do That? Here’s What Biden’s Move on the Equal Rights Amendment Means. Presidents have no direct role in approving constitutional amendments. So what could President Biden’s pronouncement recognizing a new one actually do?" (NYT)." Twitchy, We're SO Glad He's VP! Check Out How J.D. Vance Dunked on Biden's Lame Attempt to Amend the Constitution. JD Vance @JDVance, "Hey Joe if we’re doing fake shit on the way out can you declare Pete Rose into the Hall of Fame?

Fox news hosts the Great Victor Davis Hanson, Liberal California may have a political 'reawakening' after wildfire disaster, historian predicts "Californians may 'fuel a revolt' amid LA wildfires." Well, maybe, but I'm not holding my breath. The Orange County Register reports Investigators looking into whether Palisades fire kicked off by previous blaze. Did the winds whip up embers? Eric Spiegelman@ericspiegelman, "The water pressure also failed during the 1961 Bel Air and Topanga Fires. In the years after, LAFD and DWP planned a number of improvements, for those specific areas, to make sure that never happened again. One of those improvements was the construction of the Santa Ynez Reservoir, built expressly for emergencies in the Pacific Palisades. That reservoir was empty last week." Also at Fox, FEMA leaving thousands of Helene victims without shelter.
NewsMax, Judge Cannon Skeptical of Releasing Jack Smith Docs Report. Sundance, Judge Aileen Cannon Highly Skeptical of DOJ Request to Release Report on Mar-a-Lago Documents Case to Congress. Since she ruled he was illegally appointed, she should also rule that all his work is illegal "fruit of the poisonous tree." At Twitchy, AG Merrick Garland Gets a Rousing Sendoff in Video That Could Be of Assistance to Trump & Pam Bondi. Sundance, A Revealing Main Justice Parade Provides us with a Visual Scale of The Problem President Trump Faces. If they don't give Pam Bondi the same respect, they need to be forced out.
Mia Cathell at TownHall hears Fani Willis Demands More Taxpayer Money.
Sundance reports TikTok Social Media Platform Scheduled to Go Dark in USA Sunday. It did. And, President Trump Says 90-Day Extension for TikTok is Possible. NewsMax, 'Shark Tank's' O'Leary: Investors Have $20B to Buy TikTok. At Althouse, Taking down TikTok punched a hundred holes in my blog. "Where I had embedded video yesterday, it now looks like this:
Every post that had an embedded TikTok video now looks empty like that and is missing its point. Every post where I linked to anything on TikTok has been turned — forcibly, by our government — into something that would not be posted." It's January 19th. Do you know where your children are?
Sundance gloats as CBS Executives Debating Settlement with Donald Trump Over $10 Billion Lawsuit. "Trump’s lawsuit against CBS, which seeks $10 billion in damages, alleges that the network committed election interference by editing portions of an interview with Harris, favoring her campaign for president. Trump claimed CBS aired one version of the interview on “60 Minutes” and another version on its show “Face the Nation,” each containing different answers about Israel. CBS has said it aired a more succinct version of Harris’s interview on “60 Minutes.”"
From Campus Reform, Wellesley College offers ‘Queer Bible’ course to examine ‘varieties of gender in the ancient world’ and ‘queerness of gender’. "The class is ‘an examination of queer readings of the biblical canon and the canon of contemporary queer theory.’ The professor is also offering a course on ‘Decolonizing the Bible.’" John Sexton at Hat Hair reports a Detransitioned Student Prevented from Speaking About His Experience on Campus. The greatest modern heresy.
