Donald Trump reveals his official portrait.

The Biden era nears its terminus.

Donald Trump will return to Washington Saturday to kick off days of pageantry to herald his second inauguration as President.

The pageantry begins Saturday, when the President-elect leaves his Florida home to head to Washington. Trump’s advisers have not detailed how he will spend the first part of the day, and the only public event on Trump’s schedule is an evening reception and fireworks show at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, outside the city.

While Trump holds court at his club, Vice President-elect JD Vance will attend a reception for Cabinet members and host a dinner in Washington.

On Sunday, the eve of his inauguration, Trump is scheduled to participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery before heading to a rally at Capital One Arena in Washington. The rally will be followed by a private dinner.

On Inauguration Day, Trump will start with the traditional prayer service at St. John’s Episcopal Church before heading to the White House for a customary tea with the outgoing president and first lady.

Trump then heads to the Capitol, where his ceremony has been moved indoors as temperatures are set to plummet and make it the coldest Inauguration Day in 40 years. It’s not quite clear how the ceremony will be adapted to the Capitol Rotunda, but only a fraction of the original crowd will be allowed in.

After Trump takes the oath of office and delivers his inaugural address, there will be a ceremonial farewell to Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. As the new Republican government takes power, Trump will head to a signing ceremony at the Capitol to approve some of his first official acts, followed by a congressional luncheon and review of U.S. troops.

The planned traditional parade down Pennsylvania Avenue has morphed into an indoor event because of the cold, with Trump again planning to speak to his gathered supporters before he heads to the White House for a signing ceremony in the Oval Office. A trio of glitzy balls will follow in the evening, punctuated by musical performances.

    Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop
    Look at that low plane! Fine, then
    Uh oh, overflow, population, Common Food
    But it’ll do. Save yourself, serve yourself
    World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
    Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right, right
    You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light
    Feeling pretty psyched
    It’s the end of the world as we know it
    It’s the end of the world as we know it
    It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

    Finally the hologram is being powered down. That senile old fool has been nothing but a mumbling, stumbling, fumbling figurehead. He has no idea what he is signing. No idea what he is reading on the teleprompter. No more fixed press conferences. No more canned interviews by the liberal press. The four year coverup is finally over.
