OMG! This is insanity. Please swear them in at an undisclosed location.
Honestly @JoeBiden @KamalaHarris @RonaldKlain - safety first! We don't need the pomp and circumstance. Just keep Joe and Kamala safe until they can bring in competent people and fix this security mess. Please use an indoor, undisclosed location!
And @SpeakerPelosi please do not attend the inauguration. Just to play it extra safe. You three should not all be together.

U.S. Capitol on lockdown under threat from Trump supporters. This is sedition in plain sight.
Literally Trump supporters are storming our Capitol. Trump and everyone else involved in stoking violence should face trial for sedition.
Trump supporters have breached the walls of the Capitol. Per @CNN police are firing tear gas. This is terrifying.
