The inauguration will take place inside the Capitol?

It's not the weather, folks, it's the crowd size!

Who's going to stand beside him this time? Melania or Elon?

You won't need the mittens this time, Bernie!

Trump has a new conduit to Hollywood.

I have little doubt that the "special envoys" are entirely expendable to The Donald.

Why will the inauguration really be held inside the Capitol?

Because Donald's return represents the second coming of Jesus Christ. Expect frogs to fall from the skies in Washington.

It is over. It is over.

Amazon will spend $40 million on a documentary about Melania Knauss, born as Melanija Knavs but generally known as Melania Trump.

Another bit from Ennio Morricone's soundtrack for "The Battle of Algiers" (Gillo Pontecorvo).

The extreme French politician Jean-Marie Le Pen died this week.

As paratrooper, he participated in torture in Algeria. And happily admitted to it in his later life. "Just following orders, people!" "Hey, the others did it too."

One of the practices that the French army invented in Algeria - later enthusiastically copied by military regimes in Latin America - was throwing people out of helicopters above the sea.

The Italian director Gillo Pontecorvo exposed the French army in his movie "The Battle of Algiers" (1966).

(No French journalist would go there; Charles de Gaulle saw to it that the movie couldn't be seen in France.)

Ennio Morricone wrote the soundtrack.

I'll be damned: The Donald was able to take the seat next to Miley Cyrus at Jimmy Carter's funeral. How did that happen?

Elon Muskrat conquers the world.

Another bit that Debbie Wiseman wrote for the BBC: the funeral of Queen Elizabeth.

The music was commissioned years in advance of the event.
