Update: Donald Trump Scores Five More, Maybe Six A-1 List Performers For His Inaugural

IMG_7845.PNGWASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Previously, The Adobo Chronicles reported that Donald Trump has secured four A-1 list performers for his January 20 inaugural. These include Jackie Evancho, Manny Pacquiao, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Justin Bieber.

Today, the Trump inaugural committee announced that five more A-1 list performers have been confirmed to make the inaugural a truly memorable and enjoyable national event.

The additions to the performers are:

  • The U.S. Army Band
  • The U.S. Marine Corps Band
  • The U.S. Navy Band
  • The U.S. Air Force Band
  •  The U.S. Coast Guard Band

When asked by The Adobo Chronicles how the committee was able to secure such A-1 performers, a Trump spokesperson said, “Well, the president is their Commander-in-Chief. They take orders from him.”

Earlier, the New York City Rockettes were reportedly committed to perform at the inaugural as well.  However, it now appears that only 12 members can be forced to perform, since they are the only full-time employees . All others who have refused to perform are freelance dancers and are not bound by orders from the Rockettes’ employer.

Until lately, only Jackie Evancho and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir have been confirmed to perform for Trump’s inaugural.

Today, the Trump inaugural committee proudly announced that it has received confirmation from an A-list performer in the person of Filipino boxing champion Manny Pacquiao.

Aside from being a boxer and senator in his native Philippines, Pacquiao is also a recording artist.

Trump expressed elation over Pacquiao’s confirmation, saying that the boxer-senator-singer has a worldwide following, including a bi-partisan audience in America.

Pacquiao has reportedly commissioned an international composer to pen two songs that he will perform during the Trump inaugural.

The two songs are titled, “America Will Be Great Again,” and “Trump and Duterte: BFFs.”

Here’s what awaits her homecoming.

On Wednesday, December 21, the Philippines Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a criminal case against her for allegedly ignoring the summons from the parliamentary committee and subcommittees. The department also accused her of obstruction of justice by stopping her former driver from testifying in front of a panel probing illegal drug trade inside a prison facility.

DOJ has also prepared a welcome ceremony fit for a returning VIP.  She will disembark from her plane to a tube that takes her directly to the national penitentiary.
