Original Note:

Deb Fischer's husband, Bruce, had a cane in his right hand and a bible in his left hand. His hands were already occupied. http://www.fischer.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/2025/1/fischer-sworn-in-for-third-term-in-u-s-senate https://nypost.com/2025/01/06/us-news/liberals-accuse-sen-deb-fischers-husband-of-snubbing-harris-handshake-heres-what-happened/?utm_campaign=iphone_nyp&utm_source=pasteboard_app https://imgur.com/gallery/Vbpfa4k https://www.c-span.org/program/public-affairs-event/senate-ceremonial-swearing-in-part-1/653963
