Warning: this episode contains strong language.

In his first week as president-elect, Donald J. Trump moved at
breakneck speed to fill out his cabinet with a set of loyalists
who were both conventional and deeply unconventional, the U.S.
Senate chose a leader who could complicate Trump’s agenda, and
President Joe Biden welcomed Trump back to the White House.

Times Journalists Michael Barbaro, Julie Hirschfeld Davis, Peter
Baker and Maggie Haberman, sat down to make sense of it all.

Guest:

Julie Hirschfeld Davis, who covers politics for The New York
Times.

Peter Baker, the chief White House correspondent for The New
York Times.

Maggie Haberman, a senior political correspondent for The New
York Times.

Background reading:

Matt Gaetz is Mr. Trump’s pick for attorney general.

John Thune is set to become the next Senate majority leader.

Mr. Biden and Mr. Trump’s brief public display of civility
was followed by a two-hour meeting behind closed doors.
