Been watching the "President-elect's Inauguration Website."

The event keeps getting smaller and smaller.....

Is something “private” going to happen? What if it’s not broadcast?

First they removed the outdoor seating. I saw a video of the workers removing the bleacher-type seats.

Cancelled the parade.

Then they moved the "event" inside.

Then they closed it off to everyone but a select number of people. Told the Magats who had travelled all that way that their tickets wouldn't get them in and they should consider their tickets a "commemorative." LOL.

The Trump Inaugural Committee has put out orders to remove the Jumbotrons. They are removing them now, started at 11 a.m. This is per the National Park Service.

This means all the people waiting outside won't see (cough, cough) him getting signed in. (ahem, cough, cough).

=================================
New one at 5:45 p.m., Jan. 19

Now they've canceled the flyover due to weather conditions.
==================================

Next you'll be hearing he's decided to move it Mar-a-Lardo.
