The politically charged air of Washington, D.C. has made a sharp turn, and not just because of the brisk winter chill. Donald Trump has reclaimed the Oval Office, and progressives are handling it about as well as a toddler losing their favorite toy. You can almost hear their collective gasp echoing in the halls of Congress as tears of despair double as their hydration strategy. The media, ever eager to spin a tale, attempted to show a side-by-side comparison of inauguration crowds, digging deep into the archives of 2017 to provide counter-evidence. But did they bother to mention that this time around, Trump was sworn in indoors? Nah, that would ruin the narrative!
Enter John Fetterman, the Pennsylvania senator who seems to have misunderstood the meaning of “formal.” While most attendees were bundled up against the cold, Fetterman strutted into the Rotunda clad in shorts, a hoodie, and sneakers. Perhaps he thought he was heading to a local café rather than a national ceremony. Why bother fitting in when you can be the poster child for “Embrace Your Inner Casual”? It’s not as if he should care about any expectations or traditions, right?
And speaking of expectations, CBS’s Gail King put her investigative hat on and conducted an important analysis of the crowd. Her findings? It was lacking in diversity! The horror! While the rest of the country celebrated the transition of power, Gail was busy counting heads and lamenting over what she deemed an unacceptable representation of “people of color.” What did she expect, a marching band of unicorns? Newsflash, Gail: normal Americans aren’t as fixated on racial quotas as the progressive elite. Maybe it’s time to stop obsessing over demographics in every corner of life and focus on, you know, actual leadership.
In what can only be described as a breath of fresh air, Trump’s new administration promises to ditch the diversity, equity, and inclusion mandates that have taken over government policies like they’re the latest TikTok trend. Gone are the days when every federal decision hinged on race and gender composition. Cue the applause, America; we’re heading towards a truly merit-based society! Let’s hope this “colorblind” approach brings along some common sense too. Who would have thought that appointing someone based on skill rather than skin tone would be such a revolutionary concept?
On the musical front, Carrie Underwood’s performance at the inauguration stumbled over some technical hiccups, leaving her to belt out “America the Beautiful” a cappella. And let’s just say it did not go unnoticed. Social media erupted with memes capturing that delightful moment—who doesn’t love a good “musical meltdown” to add some spice? Speaking of spicy, there was the curious case of Mark Zuckerberg allegedly eyeing Jeff Bezos’s fiancée like she was a rare Pokémon. In a world where every awkward glance gets scrutinized, this one rang with irony. Here we have titans of industry, power, and wealth overflowing, and what’s the headline? “Zuckerberg Caught Being Creepy.” If that isn’t modern-day sophistication, what is?
And let’s not forget about the immediate action taken against what can only be described as the “Biden Era Bubble.” Trump wasted no time issuing executive orders to undo policies left in the wake of the previous administration. Exit the immigration app designed to cater to would-be invaders attempting to coast into the country via a mere smartphone application. Instead, under Trump it’s back to “Show us your ID, not your app.” The crackdown on illegal entries will do wonders for border security, no matter how much Democrats decide to throw a fit.
As waves of liberal sadness break against the new administration’s shores, it’s a beautiful sight to behold. Say goodbye to the theatrics of the last few years. The audacity of those who traded in integrity for gossip needs a wake-up call. It seems like they just might be getting the rude awakening they’ve earned while the rest of America breathes a sigh of relief. So here’s to a brand new chapter replete with its rolls of laughter, mishaps, and a fresh dose of real governance. Buckle up; it’s going to be one wild ride!
