‘Democracy Has Prevailed’: President Joe Biden Says ‘Unity is the Path Forward’ in Inaugural Address
President Joe Biden called for unity in his inaugural address on Wednesday, saying, “This is America’s day. This is democracy’s day… At this hour, my friends, democracy has prevailed.”
“America’s been tested anew, and America has risen to the challenge,” Biden said.
President-elect Joe Biden, tears in his eyes, says his only regret is that his son Major Beau Biden is not here "because we should be introducing him as president."

Something is different in the air today.
I can feel it all the way down here.
It feels good.
A sponge diver at Tarpon Springs, Florida in the 1940s. And then synthetic sponges put divers out of business soon after.
Peace.
You're right! Something in the air does feel different, it's like we've escaped from an abusive, psychopathic parent. And it feels really really good. Celebrate and then dig in to keep it going.
