"Inappropriate behavior"

A priest who presided over an inaugural Mass for President Biden in January is under investigation for inappropriate behavior.

Santa Clara University said in a statement on Monday that an independent investigation is being conducted into the school's president, Father Kevin O’Brien.

[...]

O’Brien presided over a Mass for Biden, Vice President Harris, their extended families and congressional leaders at Biden’s inauguration. The Mass was held at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington, D.C.

The university's statement said O’Brien has been a friend of Biden’s for nearly 15 years, and has previously held ceremonies at Biden’s previous inaugurations as vice president.

[...]

John Sobrato, chairman of Santa Clara University’s Board of Trustees, said the school was informed by the Provincial of the USA West Province that it received accounts that O’Brien “exhibited behaviors in adult settings, consisting primarily of conversations, which may be inconsistent with established Jesuit protocols and boundaries.”

  

"Primarily conversations." So vague.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

Think the law will be ready for this one?

Newsflash

Trump says he won't attend Biden's inauguration.  

Of course, he has almost two weeks to backtrack, and that's a long time in Trump backtracking windows.

Pence will attend. (Which may be why Trump doesn't want to.)

White House aides are discussing the president and first lady leaving for their South Florida resort Mar-a-Lago the day before the inauguration so that they are not in Washington when Biden takes the oath of office, according to a Trump friend.

Trump could even leave that morning and have a rally upon his arrival in Palm Beach, said a former senior administration official. The president had previously considered counter-programming Biden’s inauguration with a 2024 campaign announcement, though aides no longer expect him to make such an announcement in the immediate future, if ever.

Trump wants to leave Washington before Biden is sworn in, in part because he wants to fly to Florida on Air Force One, the highly customized Boeing aircraft that carries the president, those officials said. If he leaves after Biden takes his oath of office, he would have to ask Biden to allow him to use a plane for his departure, as is customary. Technically, that plane would not be called Air Force One.

You surely didn't expect anything less

The man has been a prick all his life. He'll be one until the day he dies.

[Trump] is privately discussing using his waning powers as commander in chief to order up the exit he wants after dissing Biden by refusing to concede the election, welcome him to the White House or commit to attending his inauguration.

[...]

[He's] considering a made-for-TV grand finale: a White House departure on Marine One and final Air Force One flight to Florida for a political rally opposite Joe Biden's inauguration, sources familiar with the discussions tell Axios.

[...]

Immediately announcing he is running for re-election in 2024 would set up four years of Trump playing Biden's critic-in-chief

[...]

White House spokesman Judd Deere said: “Anonymous sources who claim to know what the President is or is not considering have no idea. When President Trump has an announcement about his plans for Jan. 20 he will let you know.”

Snotbox. This has been the Trump communications response to everything his whole term: you peasants are lucky to get anything. He'll tell you what he wants you to know when he wants you to know it.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
