Trump's final days in office are tailor-made to keep the spotlight on him at the expense of Biden, who is scheduled to take office at noon Wednesday, according to reports. Here’s a thread

Since the attack on the US Capitol, Trump has lost allies and faces a second impeachment trial. But until noon on Wednesday, he retains the vast powers of his office — and seems intent on using them.

🙏 Pardons 🙏
Trump is said to be planning a last-minute spree of pardons, which he can issue unilaterally and would spawn another chaotic news cycle.

The list was drawn up during a Sunday meeting between Trump, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, and other aides, and will most likely be made public Monday or Tuesday, @washingtonpost reported.

The list is not expected to include Trump, @cnn said, though the president is said to have considered pardoning himself and his family.

✈️ Skipping Biden’s inauguration ✈️
Trump has said he will not attend Biden's inauguration, which is set to be held under unprecedented security following the Capitol riot.

Instead he plans to fly to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, where he is expected to land just ahead of Biden's inauguration ceremony, a photo op likely to drag attention away from Biden in real time.

🎤 2024 candidacy 🎤
Trump was previously thought to be planning an even more audacious Inauguration Day spectacle, having touted the idea of announcing his 2024 candidacy to a rally of supporters.

That plan seems unlikely now, given his political struggles — if he is convicted in the Senate impeachment trial, Congress could move to bar him from all public office, disqualifying him from running again.

⌚️ The future for Trump ⌚️
Out of office, Trump will have a far smaller megaphone, with his Twitter account still out of his hands and bans on other platforms. https://t.co/HXkd2c1yiV

The first ever world map was sketched thousands of years ago by Indian saint
“Ramanujacharya” who simply translated the following verse from Mahabharat and gave the world its real face

In Mahabharat,it is described how 'Maharishi Ved Vyasa' gave away his divine vision to Sanjay


Dhritarashtra's charioteer so that he could describe him the events of the upcoming war.

But, even before questions of war could begin, Dhritarashtra asked him to describe how the world looks like from space.

This is how he described the face of the world:

सुदर्शनं प्रवक्ष्यामि द्वीपं तु कुरुनन्दन। परिमण्डलो महाराज द्वीपोऽसौ चक्रसंस्थितः॥
यथा हि पुरुषः पश्येदादर्शे मुखमात्मनः। एवं सुदर्शनद्वीपो दृश्यते चन्द्रमण्डले॥ द्विरंशे पिप्पलस्तत्र द्विरंशे च शशो महान्।

—वेद व्यास, भीष्म पर्व, महाभारत


Meaning:-

हे कुरुनन्दन ! सुदर्शन नामक यह द्वीप चक्र की भाँति गोलाकार स्थित है, जैसे पुरुष दर्पण में अपना मुख देखता है, उसी प्रकार यह द्वीप चन्द्रमण्डल में दिखायी देता है। इसके दो अंशो मे पीपल और दो अंशो मे विशाल शश (खरगोश) दिखायी देता है।


Meaning: "Just like a man sees his face in the mirror, so does the Earth appears in the Universe. In the first part you see leaves of the Peepal Tree, and in the next part you see a Rabbit."

Based on this shloka, Saint Ramanujacharya sketched out the map, but the world laughed
