Cawthorn — now armed with a handgun, he said — took shelter in the office of a colleague. “It was a great bonding experience,” he said. “But it literally felt like a scene from The Lord of the Rings.

The incoming president’s preexisting day-one promises — rejoining the Paris climate accord, unwinding a range of Donald Trump’s more draconian executive orders — now looked like a mere starting point. Biden himself was planning to announce some of his final Cabinet nominees the next day in Wilmington; even his more controversial picks seemed as if they might have a far easier time getting confirmed than he had once expected. “I can’t believe we pulled it off,” one Democrat near the upper ranks of BidenWorld marveled to me as the day began. … [Read more...] about How BidenWorld Is Scrambling to Prepare for January 21
