Supreme Court Evacuated Due To Bomb Threat During Biden Inauguration

As Joe Biden’s inauguration – which involves almost no actual people, but many, many flags – continues Wednesday morning, the Supreme Court has been evacuated due to a potential bomb threat, as the rest of the Washington DC area remains on lockdown.

An NBC News reporter broke the story.

Then at around 1020ET, a reporter from CNN “confirmed” the evacuation.

We’re waiting on more details to come.

Right off the bat, the question seems to be…how the heck did a potential bomb get planted amid 25,000 National Guardsmen and the nation’s most secure inauguration in DC ever?
