President Biden, who laid out his plan to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, offered a sober assessment about the crisis.

If the final hours of Trump’s presidency were publicly anticlimactic and relatively sedate, they were characteristically frenetic behind the scenes.

Republicans said little when Trump did much the same thing during his presidency.

A Washington Post analysis of the 144 people who received clemency this week found that at least 45 — or nearly a third — had a link to the president or people in his close orbit.

A simple comparison of like-sized states shows how the pandemic can be better addressed.

For Democrats, ‘I feel like a huge weight has been lifted.’ For Republicans, ‘I feel like it’s a fraud … but I want to hear him out.’

Can anything get GOP senators to vote to convict Trump?

Biden plans to sign executive actions that will require masks on all federal grounds and ask agencies to extend eviction moratoriums.

President Trump came into office pledging to drain the swamp. He exits having extracted a bunch of allies who were neck-deep in the muck from it.

Folks, Virus, Crucible, Shoes: These are some of the words in Biden’s speech that no other president had spoken in an inaugural address.

Biden, never shy about commenting on inaugural addresses, called Reagan’s ‘brilliant.’ Bush’s was ‘incredibly good.’ Now he gets to deliver his own.

Gallup data offer a slight glimmer of hope.
