Alabama's newest Senator Doug Jones took the ceremonial oath of office yesterday from Vice President Mike Pence. Looking on were Jones' wife, Louise, his son Christopher and his son, Carson, who is capturing attention for the withering look he cast at the VP during the swearing-in.

Carson Jones, a-22-year-old zookeeper who lives in Colorado, confirmed to The Advocate last month he was gay. The side-eye was directed squarely at Pence, who has a long history of opposing same-sex marriage and equal protections for members of the LGBT community.

An image of the swearing in was posted to Instagram by Carson Jones with the hashtag "#nocaptionneeded" and "#wemadeit."

The image quickly spread on social media.

If you could take one photo that represents the concept of justice, this photo of Doug Jones being sworn into office standing next to his openly gay son and ummm Mike Pence facilitating the ceremony would be the one. pic.twitter.com/4BLIw6Fzyt — Devin Duke (@sirDukeDevin) January 4, 2018

Carson Jones told The Advocate last month he was "thrilled" with his dad's victory.

"We have been overwhelmed by the support of so many people that made this happen. Alabama made a really big statement that unity wins out. I couldn't be prouder of him or my home state," he said.
