What now? asks David Corn in “Back From the Brink” after President Trump brought the
nation to the threshold of autocracy. Nathalie Baptiste helps address that question too,
in “The Racist Next Time,” writing that to fend off tyranny we must conquer bigotry.
Russ Choma looks at the many trials ahead for the outgoing president in “Lock Him
Up?” And in “To Depose a President,” Madison Pauly wonders if the women accusing
Trump of sexual assault will ever have their day in court. Becca Andrews looks at the
contest in Georgia in “Keeping the Faith,” and Jamilah King profiles a formidable new
leader in Congress in “March to Washington.” President Biden will inherit a financial
mess, but we have Kara Voght’s insightful piece “Wonks Progress Administration,” on
the key economists who have been advising Biden on how to fix it.
