I'm seeing this reposted a lot. While I deeply disagree with what Columbia is doing, the original post is misleading. While the NYT's article came after Columbia's announcement of its capitulation, the quote from the DOJ lawyer is from Thursday - the day before the capitulation.

Deeply dislike what Columbia is doing, but that quote is from Thursday - a day before before Columbia's announcement on Friday.

Don't forget Louisiana has jungle primaries, so there is (or was) a potential path for his making it to the runoff and winning that runoff with a coalition that includes some pragmatic Democrats.

The inauguration was originally moved outside because Speaker of the House Henry Clay, upset that Monroe chose John Quincy Adams over him for Secretary of State, refused at the last moment to have the furniture in the House chamber rearranged for the inauguration.
