Nancy Pelosi needs to go to the bunker in Nelson County, VA

Or someplace similar during the Swearing In. Just in case. And, she needs to be guarded by people 100% loyal to the United States.

There are no Cabinet Members for Biden on purpose, I think, because they thought their coup would work. So, Nancy needs to be 100% secure and hidden.

Working with these traitors, or what they are willing to do. After the insurrection and the inside job that was, an adversary might want to take advantage of this division and capitalize on it. Just like all these big corporations funding this stop the steal or save america rally. They need to be investigated, their money spread misinformation and created their army of traitors.

Who would have thought four years ago, we'd have child separated and caged from their parents, this scumbag diligently crushing our public institutions, selling our public lands to the scourge of the earth, giving away public money by the trillions, lying about a pandemic with 100,000s dead, and inciting an insurrection.

Get these traitors out of office and lock them up for the traitors they are. They hate our country and are capable of trying anything.

All the troops in the world can't protect from a determined and well planned attack from something like a missile or drone. Much as we've (Secret Service, military, or law enforcement, I mean) have tried to secure the scene, I remain terrified of some rogue nation or rogue operator using long distance device to injure somebody. That attack on the Capitol was somewhat organized by people s of yet unidentified. THAT realization scares hell outta me. Similarly, there has been discussion in the media about foreign involvement and funding for the traitors.

I'll feel a LOT better once the swearing in is finished and the orange anus is out of DC.

Because otherwise the designated survivor picked by the outgoing Obama administration would have been the highest in the line of succession who was not at the inauguration. But Hatch didn't announce it in advance, and in fact had suggested his intent to attend the inauguration. The secrecy was, they said, for security reasons. It's possible that something similar will happen with Nancy Pelosi.

I know I'd feel safer, but overall I'll trust Nancy and Joe and the experts who have earned their trust.
