My kid thought that “swearing in” meant Joe Biden was going to stand at a podium on Wednesday and reel off all the curse words he knows. He’s understandably a little disappointed now.

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.
and
I hope y'all got all the thanks, tributes & coulda shouldas out the way, because on #Inauguration2021 Day I don't want to hear shit about anybody but Madam Vice President KAMALA DEVI HARRIS. She earned this historic moment, don't shortchange that!

Irish violinist Patricia Treacy, from County #Louth, will perform in #Washington tomorrow at President @JoeBiden’s #inauguration. She called around this afternoon with her Stradivarius. We recorded something together which I will post in the morning. pic.twitter.com/ysZmTT8G5r

I pray tomorrow will be a day of peace for all Americans. A day for love, not hatred. A day for acceptance not fear. A day for dreaming of our future joy as a country. A dream that is non-violent, a dream that provides safety for our souls. Love, from the Capitol 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/fATHiJHCq0

Biden
Good riddance to 4 very long, excruciatingly exhausting years of hate, selfishness, braggadocio, disdain, inhumanity…

1. Assange is not a hero in any way – he deliberately helped Trump win
2. The Berners who are equally keen to worship Assange are closely aligned with the Republicans. https://t.co/mEcbSPwmcC
and
The traitor Ed Snowden is mad that he and Assange are not getting pardons. https://t.co/2ts0HbOyYu

After 3.5 years working together, @donie and I have co-bylined a story. It's about a very scary phenomenon and you should read it even if I do regret the collaboration already. https://t.co/vLffJXdBaI
