Ex-Trump Administration officials are on Twitter zinging Biden over policy and personnel. Ex-Senior Advisor Stephen Miller (@StephenM) began Wednesday, over immigration. Ex-U.S. Ambassador to Israel @DavidM_Friedman now recalling a 2016 UN resolution that was hostile to Israel. — PolitiTweet.org

@jimantle Amazingly, he's *still* technically Vermont's only Democratic senator. Jim Jeffords and Bernie Sanders being independents who caucused with Ds. — PolitiTweet.org

Less than five hours into being vice president, Kamala Harris already at work in the Senate. Swearing in new Democratic senators, Jon Ossoff (Ga.), Alex Padilla (Calif.), and Raphael Warnock (Ga.). — PolitiTweet.org

With Democrats now in the Senate majority, Sen. Patrick Leahy (Vt.) is Senate pro tempore, making him third in presidential succession. Behind VP Kamala Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Replaces Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) in the position. — PolitiTweet.org

Kind of a coda to the 2020 campaign with (light) snow falling as Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D) speaks, as an inaugural committee member. Her presidential announcement in Minnesota was held during much heavier snowfall. — PolitiTweet.org

If there's one good thing about the lack of crowd on the National Mall, it's that there won't be booing when Biden political opponents appear on stage. It's happened in recent inaugurations -- John Kerry in 2005 and Paul Ryan in 2013, just after losing on a national ticket. — PolitiTweet.org

@RuralChrisLee @PresElectBiden @JoeBiden Indeed. Republican inroads in the South are generally attributed to beginning in the 1950s and 60s, but really began with Herbert Hoover's 1928 victory. Carried Texas, Tennessee and other Southern states. Which then reverted to form under FDR/Truman. — PolitiTweet.org

@RuralChrisLee @PresElectBiden @JoeBiden And amazing that it's a non-issue politically. Quite an improvement from 1960 and certainly 1928. — PolitiTweet.org

Pardoned former GOP Reps. Randy "Duke" Cunningham (Calif.) and Rick Renzi (Ariz.) were among a group of mid-to-late 2000s lawmakers nailed by feds for corruption. Cunningham for a "bribe menu" from lobbyists/defense contractors, for illegal land swaps, among other bad acts. — PolitiTweet.org
