Okay, what is it? [View all]
From SOTU. Someone asked who the distinguished woman is who escorted Joe Biden to the podium. So I found this photo. She's on the right.
She's Karen Gibson, Sergeant at Arms of the Senate.
Okay! Now the mystery.
The man on the left has what looks like a monocle or ring. Doesn't seem to have much refractive power. The white is probably a reflection of some of the house lights.
A monocle? The holder's finger covers most of the bottom rim. I've never seen such a gadget in the wild.
Have you? It's recorded for posterity.
