Biden's inauguration speech will last 20 to 30 minutes. Theme is “unity,” his aides say.
Trump in his farewell speech will say: “I am especially proud to be the first president in decades who has started no new wars.

“All Americans were horrified by the assault on our Capitol. Political violence is an attack on everything we cherish.”
“Now, as I prepare to hand power over to a new administration at noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning,” Trump will say in farewell speech.
These scripted words are what some advisers had been urging an irritable Trump to say all along: a new president is coming in Jan. 20 but the Trump movement isn’t over.

NEW: White House sends invitations for Trump’s departure event at Joint Base Andrews—starts at 8a Wednesday.

Guests must arrive between 6a and 7:15a; may bring up to five other people; and must wear mask, the invites say, according to one shared with me by an ex Trump official.
Trump’s “ceremony” is scheduled for 8 a.m. at the military base where the outgoing president will make his final departure aboard Air Force One.

He’ll be 1st living US president in more than a century to choose not to attend regular exchange of power.

It’s difficult to find folks who *are* planning to go to Trump’s departure events early tomorrow.

Ex national security adviser John Bolton and deputy Charlie Kupperman were invited; not going.

Same with ex chief John Kelly and ex comms aide Anthony Scaramucci; many others.

TRUMP says a new administration will be inaugurated on Jan. 20.
LATEST: Trump risked losing many of his White House staff to mass resignation after inciting a riot at the US Capitol Wednesday, but top officials have decided to stay on to smooth the transition to Biden’s administration.

One of Trump’s closest and longest-serving aides, Hope Hicks, has been considering resigning, sources told @nwadhams and me. She has barely been seen in the White House in recent days.

BREAKING: A top Pentagon official, retired Brigadier General Anthony Tata, has tested positive for coronavirus, sources tell me. It's the second time the coronavirus outbreak has hit senior ranks of the U.S. military.
Tata, who is performing the duties of an undersecretary of Defense, was in meetings with other top Pentagon officials this week including Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller, Deputy SecDef David Norquist, Gen. Mark Milley. Miller on Wednesday visited troops at Fort Bragg.
Tata likely infected by visiting officials, I’m told. Lithuanian Embassy told Pentagon their minister of defense had tested positive for coronavirus. Raimundas Karoblis met with Tata, as well as acting SecDef Chris Miller and US secretaries of the Army and Air Force, on Friday.

NEWS: Hope Hicks, who traveled with Trump aboard Air Force One to and from the presidential debate on Tuesday, and to his Minnesota rally yesterday, has coronavirus, sources tell me.
White House works to limit COVID-19 exposure “to the greatest extent possible” both on complex and when the president is traveling, spokesman Judd Deere says in a statement, without mentioning by name the aide who has coronavirus.
Scoop: No indication Trump has contracted coronvirus, but inner circle aide Hope Hicks has it, and is experiencing symptoms of the disease. She was in close proximity to him, maskless, in recent days. She was quarantined on AF1 on trip back from Minnesota.
