Episode description

In the hours between Trump’s exit from the White House and Biden’s entrance, a team of cleaners will wipe down every surface and mist the air with disinfectant to rid the halls of any lingering virus particles. After that, masks will be mandatory and testing will be constant. POLITICO’s Alice Miranda Ollstein breaks down how Biden and his team are working to transform the White House from hotspot to bubble. Plus, 35 states file an antitrust suit against Google. And Biden plans to nominate Rep. Deb Haaland as the first Native American head of the Interior Department.

Alice Miranda Ollstein is a health care reporter for POLITICO.
Jeremy Siegel is a host for POLITICO Dispatch.
