As President Biden's term nears its end, his administration is finalizing plans to address various issues before the transition to President-elect Donald Trump. Biden is set to embark on an international trip to Italy and Vatican City to meet with Pope Francis, Italian leaders, and discuss global peace initiatives. Upon his return, he will deliver two speeches focusing on foreign policy and bidding farewell to the nation.
Biden is considering additional pardons, measures to combat domestic extremism, and providing military aid to Israel amidst its conflict with Hamas. The Department of Justice is evaluating whether to prosecute 200 cases related to the January 6 events before Trump's term concludes.
