But the inauguration was supposed to be virtual? There wasn't going to be a parade or anything? They even demolished the parade stand things?

Also, why the barricades around the capital? Why the military? Why not just the dc police? The protests are over? Everyone went home, right? Trump can't coordinate the 1.whateveritwas million people to get to DC again?

I know I might be high on hopeium, but something isn't adding up.

Lets assume Joe Biden will be going into the WH on the 20th, no parade, inauguration virtual or not. There was a huge protest on the 6th. It would only be logical to build barricades and up the military presence on the day he walks into WH. People do not need a parade or inauguration to protest (or storm the WH). Its just Occams razor, the scenario I mentioned requires the least amount of speculation, is the simplest explanation, and is probably right.

Biden has said their won't be a regular inauguration, because of the COOF I think (the catchall excuse now). I think he's holding it in his basement, then calling a lid.

It wasn't until the 6th. We typically don't need that much support.
