Party in the U.S.A.: All in a week’s work

It's been just under a week since Joe Biden took office as the 46th president of the United States, and already so much has changed. Biden is quickly reversing Trump's policies, working to get major legislation passed to curb the coronavirus and fix the economy. We’re also hearing from people like Anthony Fauci who were muzzled by the Trump administration and are now speaking freely and looking much happier. Trump, meanwhile, has been kicked off social media and he's facing an impeachment trial. So, he's been pretty quiet. What is he up to? This week Elamin calls up Ella Nilsen, who covers domestic policy for Vox, as well as Alayna Treene, White House reporter for Axios.
