"It all happens within two hours, you know, literally," he said of the quick transition after former President Donald Trump left office. "They move everything out and move something in."
It is funny. One of the ministers left and was replaced. Pretty much at the same time the announcement was made, the new minister was in the office with all of his furniture already there and set up.
@taiwan_girl I believe it was in McCullough's biography of Truman in which the move-in/move-out scenario was described.
It's remarkable that everything happens so quickly.

My story was about a Taiwan minister so maybe that is one thing that governments all over the world do well. 555

No gaffes! Not even anything about oh, you know, that guy. He runs the place!

Hey Jennifer we already know where you stand from your articles. And it’s opinion not news, please don’t blur the lines.

NBC, already lowering expectations:
Biden's first news conference offers opportunity — and risk
The president's audience is the American public, which will get to see how he handles scrutiny.
The big risk for Biden is that he could inadvertently knock his hyper-disciplined White House messaging machine off-kilter. But for a president who promised transparency, honesty and competence in government, an exchange with a full spectrum of television and print media offers the opportunity to draw a contrast with the frequent, freewheeling and often full-of-falsehoods interactions President Donald Trump had with reporters.
(gotta get that shot about Trump in, don't they, LOL)
His main audience is the public — White House aides will surely clip his highlights and distribute them on social media — but it will be the first time since he took office that Americans will see him tested by media intermediaries. In that way, it is Biden's most important shot to demonstrate that he will deal with scrutiny in a manner different from his predecessor's and with more honest openness.

I'd love to see Biden do a free-wheeling, off-the-cuff, sixty minute presser like Trump did on multiple occasions.
