On Monday, First lady Melania Trump lashed out at her critics in a statement. This is her first public remarks since last Wednesday's violent siege of the Capitol building by her husband's loyalists. Melania expressed sympathy for those who died during or from injuries sustained amid last Wednesday's riot. Business Insider reports she named each of the individuals. She misspelled the name of one rioter killed by Capitol Police. Melania lifted a line from her speech last August at the Republican National Convention.
On Friday, President-elect Joe Biden said he expects his January 20 inauguration to be a "more imaginative" virtual event. Business Insider reports the event will be much like the 2020 DNC. "It is highly unlikely that there will be a million people on the mall, going all the way down to the [Lincoln] Memorial," Biden said. The decision is in stark contrast to that made by President Trump. Trump began his term in 2017 by arguing about the number of spectators at his inauguration.
