Inauguration Day 2025

January 20, 2025

Good morning!

Today is Inauguration Day as well as Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Today’s email will be short for the holiday, but let’s go over what the day should hold.

Last night, Trump held an inauguration eve rally at Capital One Arena in Washington D.C where he said, “you’re going to have a lot of fun watching TV tomorrow.”

It’s currently expected that he could sign over 200 executive orders immediately following the swearing-in.

A few things he mentioned last night:

  • He plans to remove over-classification of government documents by releasing records pertaining to the assassinations of JFK, Robert Kennedy, MLK Jr., and other topics of great public interest.

  • Proposed that America should own 50% of TikTok

  • Insinuated partial credit for the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas
