Members of Congress, the Supreme Court and other dignitaries have gathered at the U.S. Capitol for a lying-in-state ceremony for former President Jimmy Carter.

A Patriot, a Veteran, a Humanitarian and the 39th President of these United States.

A Good Man.

Seeing Mike Johnson eulogize President Carter made me sick to my stomach.

Beautiful service.

How did we go from Carter to the anal orange wart?

R7 It's an American tragedy. The only hope we have is that the moderate Democrats who similar to Carter, Clinton, and Obama somehow manage to defeat the far left progressives and the MAGAt Republicans.

Jon Ossoff looks unwell.

by Anonymousreply 9January 7, 2025 10:40 PM

Wouldn't you be unwell, given what's going to happen in DC on January 20th?

I think Chip Carter will be the next Carter family member to go. Soon.

Hakeem couldn't be bothered to wear a pair of dress shoes?

I love how Amy Carter basically looks the same as she did when she was 10 years old...just an older version of herself.

Please do not ignore the role of the media that smeared and railed against Carter, bullied Biden, the Media who built and enabled the excrement who will be inaugurated on January 20th.

^ Yup, I remember all kinds of mockery of Carter by the media. Now they're acting like he was the greatest POTUS ever.

What's the big deal? I'm the new President. He's the old President- and now the dead president- but I'm the new one. I won 3 times, he lost. I don't like losers...

Pelosi is using a walker. No more heels, Nancy.

Is there a cash bar?...

R11, right? I've been streaming this since they put his coffin on the gun caisson. Chip Carter looks like a Dickens' character.

C-SPAN is continuing with live coverage. The Rotunda will be open for public viewing beginning at 8:00 pm.

There are rumors AOC tried to trip her.

Amy Carter is the Rumer Willis of politics. She had an attractive mother, but didn't get her mother's looks.

Beautiful music from the military chorus.

R7 That’s so hard to fathom. From saintly Jimmy to devil Don. Is it a sign of the Apocalypse?

I admire Chip for walking to the Capitol. He was shuffling but kept on going.

I just want to know who the fellow in the wheelchair is. I had the sound off for most of today and Saturday's services. Is he Amy's husband?

R27 I think it was Amy's husband in the wheelchair.

Jason Carter , Jimmy's grandson, is the superstar of the family. Love him. He is Jack's son. Jimmy's sons were very close to him. Amy too. I saw a clip of him talking about himself and Jerry Ford and he was talking about their personal relat

It would be nice if Willie were there, R18. President Carter was an Allman Brothers' fan, too.

I see that Jeff Carter never grew into his most unfortunate looks.

I'm looking forward to the actual funeral. I hope his family speaks. His sons and grandson were so good at Rosalynn's funeral.

On Thursday, Gerald Ford's son Steven (formerly a hot actor on "The Young & Restless") will read a eulogy that his father (who died in 2006) wrote for Carter. The Carters and Fords became close friends for 25 years after Carter left office, in spite of continuing political differences, and worked together on many projects. Carter gave a eulogy for Ford, as Rosalynn did for Betty.
