#SundayRoundup time here at INTERZINE -- and, in case you somehow missed it: Joe #Biden is now the President of the #UnitedStates, succeeding former President Donald #Trump (THREAD)
In the eleven months we've been active, we've written a lot about Trump. @Thatadityaiyer discussed Trump's conspiratorial peddling of hydroxychloroquine as a cure for #Covid_19 back in May: https://interzine.org/2020/05/30/the-history-of-quinine-should-make-us-wary-of-leaders-who-claim-hydroxychloroquine-can-cure-covid-19/
@SDWwrites wrote about Trump's unprecedented threat to deploy the US military to repress #BLM protesters this summer: https://interzine.org/2020/06/04/in-case-of-emergency-break-precedent/
As Justin Faulhaber argued in October, Trump's anti - #Immigration policies are part of a long and painful history of xenophobia in the United States: https://interzine.org/2020/10/08/anti-immigrant-racism-in-the-united-states-american-as-apple-pie/
In November, @SDWwrites looked at Trump's preemptive, and illegitimate, attempts to cast doubt on the #Election2020 https://interzine.org/2020/11/03/when-elections-go-wrong/
And this past week, Cormac Kelly argued that the conspiratorial leanings of the #GOP will not be cast aside so easily after Trump's departure from the White House: https://interzine.org/2021/01/22/extremism-in-the-defense-of-liberty-the-rise-of-american-conservatism/
Trump was, in countless ways, a history-making president.
--First president to hold no public service position prior to election
--First president since Herbert Hoover to lose the House, Senate, and White House in their term
--First president to be #ImpeachedTwice

#JoeBiden inherits the #Covid_19 crisis, calls for #RacialJustice, a weakened economy, and a country distrustful of its own #democracy. Over the next four years, he'll make history as he tries to address these issues.
And we'll be there to put that #History in context.
