2025-29 -A Blank Canvas
PRESIDENT STANTON:
The Inauguration Celebrations Underway!
President-elect DeSantis and Vice President-elect Haley have been busy with Inauguration Celebrations and as they prepare to assume the responsibilities at Noon on Monday, January 20. The Biden's hosted a White House private dinner for Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff, along with the Blinkens. Biden is described to be in good spirits, despite the complete dominance by the Republican's over politics in Washington and across the nation.

The White House has released a statement
that President Biden's list of last minute pardons will be released tomorrow morning. As for the departure ceremony by the Biden's and Harris will not include will be absent Marine One, as they will both depart from the East Front by Limousine. The weather forecast is expected to be overcast, but still cold.
Already incoming White House Chief of Staff Byron Donalds has just resigned his house seat and the new Florida Governor, Jeanette Nunez will name the date of special elections as soon as Brian Mast (Incoming Veterans Affairs Secretary), Carlos Gimenez (Incoming Homeland Security Secretary) resign their own seat's. The special elections will likely be scheduled for the same day. Despite attempts by Senate Democrats are attempting to engineer a push back against Incoming Attorney General Ted Cruz. However Senate majority leader, John Cornyn , a fellow Texan has signalled a willingness to bypass any attempt of mischief making by Democrats. For his part, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee, Lindsey Graham has stated, "That there will be a speedy confirmation of Ted Cruz as our nation's Attorney General". Democrats have voiced concern that Cruz will spearhead the new administration's border policy, which likely include resumption of the border wall, a staple of the previous Trump Administration.
Next: A shortlived Honeymoon for a new administration!

PRESIDENT STANTON:
@2016, thank you, for that reminder; however, thankfully you beat me to the punch, so don't need to do it now, apologies everyone for that oversight. On to matters concerning Florida, the recently installed Governor Jeanette Nuñez has announced that her new Lieutenant Governor, will be the current Secretary of Department of Economic Opportunity, Dane Eagle , who was appointed to the position of by President-elect and former Governor Ron DeSantis in September, 2020. Eagle sought the Republican nomination for Congress in Florida's 19th Congressional District in the 2020 election. There had been speculation that Mike Giallombardo was being considered for the position, but Nuñez has instead opted for Eagle who was viewed as a better choice.
