Nice! I completely missed it. Did anyone else notice?

I must confess I was puzzled by the OP. I couldn't imagine Warren being subtle (a good thing in my book). But this makes total sense.

The date 11/3/20 was there, a USPS Mail jacket was there. The speech is almost worth re-watching to see them all.

what looks like a puzzle with different shapes (and a poster above it) that fascinated me, literally inches from the letters. I spent some time gazing at what looked like kids' drawings. That's it.

I felt a little better remembering that I spent a lot of last night with the speeches running in the background while I read or looked at other things. I didn't do that as much the first two nights and I think this shows me that it's a mistake. 😄

I likely will go back and rewatch. I want to see all of the fun little easter eggs. Plus, it was a good speech!
