    Concrete jersey barriers block many of the cross streets along K Street NW, police officers are screening people coming into downtown, and Metro has closed some of its busiest transfer stations within the security perimeter this weekend.

    More fencing is going up in a farther perimeter around the Capitol and White House. The National Mall and other National Park Service areas nearby are closed.

    Mayor Muriel Bowser is urging people not to come to the Downtown Central Business District area, which roughly stretches from east of the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial and north to Massachusetts Avenue. She also told would-be visitors to stay out of Washington.

    Many parking garages near the Capitol and White House were shuttered Friday. Vehicles left inside won’t be accessible until after the inauguration, officials said. Trucks delivering to businesses in the area will be sent to an off-site inspection point first.

    These are just some of the unprecedented security measures taking place ahead of President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration Wednesday. It’s set to take place just two weeks after a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of President Donald Trump. The FBI is tracking threats of violence at the U.S. Capitol and at state capitals around the country in the coming days.

    The Secret Service’s closure plan, which was released Friday and has a sweeping set of closures, is subject to additions or alterations as the National Special Security Event evolves. Closures are set for Saturday, Jan. 15 until Thursday, Jan. 21. The Secret Security has set up a Red Zone and a Green Zone.

    Red Zone: Vehicle traffic restricted to authorized vehicles only with proper vehicle placard. These areas have increased and hardened security.

    Green Zone: Vehicle traffic restricted to residents or businesses within the restricted area and National Guard personnel will be assisting with verifying traffic entering into the Green Zone.

    Purple Lines: Virginia to D.C. bridges closing Tuesday at 6 a.m. through Thursday at 6 a.m.

    Red X: Represent closed WMATA stations and closed streetcar service.

    Yellow X: WMATA’s Pentagon station closes Wednesday only.

    Red areas: Areas closed by the National Park Service

    Blue areas: Designated protest zones set up for permitted protestors only. Only 100 people per area are allowed.

    Yellow areas: Residents report some soft closure of streets in the Capitol Hill area, but they aren’t formally listed.

    tight: DC's Inauguration-Related Road And Transit Closures, Mapped - INAUGURATION EXPLAINER: Biden's event will be very different


    in case some forgot…….

    Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

    • Biden announces new science team, elevates office to Cabinet


    President-elect Joe Biden announced new members of his science team on Saturday as well as his plan to elevate the director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy to a Cabinet-level position for the first time, a move meant to highlight his commitment to science.

    "We’re going to lead with science and truth," Biden said at a speech introducing his new appointees in Delaware on Saturday. "We believe in both."

    Biden nominated Eric Lander to the position. Lander, who will require Senate confirmation, is a mathematician and geneticist who helped map the human genome and founded the Broad Institute, a biomedical research center known for their work on the gene-editing technology CRISPR-Cas9.

    Lander is also a biology professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Medical School and previously served on President Barack Obama’s council of science advisers.

    The decision to elevate Lander to Cabinet-level is a sharp break from President Donald Trump who spent much of his term downplaying and second-guessing health and science experts. The position Lander will fill sat vacant for nearly two years under Trump.

    Biden also announced Saturday that Dr. Alondra Nelson will serve as deputy director for science and society of the Office of Science and Technology Policy and Maria Zuber and Frances Arnold will serve as co-chairs of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.: Biden announces new science team, elevates office to Cabinet

    • Biden plans dozens of executive orders for early days of presidency


    Joe Biden is planning to sign dozens of executive orders in his first days in office, as he aims to roll back some of President Donald Trump’s signature policies on immigration and climate change while taking early action to address the coronavirus crisis.

    After being sworn in on Wednesday, Biden will rescind the travel ban on several majority-Muslim countries, rejoin the Paris climate accords, extend limits on student loan payments and evictions instituted during the pandemic and issue a mask mandate on federal properties and for interstate travel. Incoming White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain outlined the flurry of activity for Biden’s first 10 days in office in a memo to senior staff on Saturday.

    “These actions will change the course of COVID-19, combat climate change, promote racial equity and support other underserved communities, and rebuild our economy in ways that strengthen the backbone of this country: the working men and women who built our nation,” Klain wrote in the memo. “While the policy objectives in these executive actions are bold, I want to be clear: the legal theory behind them is well-founded and represents a restoration of an appropriate, constitutional role for the President."

    On Biden’s second day in office, he will sign executive actions focused on addressing the Covid-19 pandemic, including ways to help schools and business reopen safely, expand testing, protect workers and establish clearer public health standards. The next day, Biden will direct his Cabinet to work on delivering economic relief to families most affected by the crisis.

    In subsequent days, Biden will expand “Buy America provisions,” take action to advance “equity and support communities of color,” begin to reform the criminal justice, expand access to healthcare and work toward reuniting families separated at the border. Klain did not specify what these actions would entail, but the memo follows Biden’s introduction this week of his legislative agenda, which includes a $1.9 trillion relief bill.

    Klain conceded much of Biden’s agenda would need the support of Congress, a prospect that improved after Democrats took control of the Senate earlier this month. But any action in Congress is likely to be delayed as the Senate is slated to begin Trump’s second impeachment trial shortly after Biden takes office.: Biden plans dozens of executive orders for early days of presidency - POLITICO

    Did Boon Mee finally kick the bucket? I can not imagine him not posting his utter trash.

    If he did croak then I can only say that I have been bleating on about the dying GOP. They are fucked and dying like flies.

    During the primaries, Biden was not my choice.I was a Yang guy. I have to admit, I was very wrong.
    Biden is the perfect choice at this juncture. Once he puts the country together we will have time for ideology, For now we need a steady hand that can work with all involved, and knows the field.
    I have to say, so far I am very impressed with Biden.
    The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to catch up.

    I gotta give it to Joe- he cuts quite a magnificent figure, for a wheezer of his age. Better than trump, but he's just a wrong'un (Hey- You elected him). Keep him pumped with BeeGee's (Stayin' Alive) drugs, and I reckon he'll be fine. No, not donald.

    But I rather like Kamala, and should chance or misfortune thrust her into greatness, I reckon she would be more than adequate. She's got more balls than that Obamawimp.
