Sunday, November 29: President-elect Biden unveils his first cabinet picks

The presidential transition is officially underway. He'll receive his first presidential intelligence briefing on Monday, days after announcing a national security team made up of longtime advisers and Obama administration veterans. For his part, President Trump continues to falsely claim mass election fraud while offering no concession.

Plus, one of President Obama's top economic advisors makes his case for why Congress should pass an economic relief package before Biden takes office.

And with more than 91,000 Americans hospitalized with Covid-19, hospital ERs brace for a post-Thanksgiving coronavirus surge.

On today's show: Julie Davis of the New York Times and the Washington Post's Seung Min Kim; Brown University School of Public Health Dean Dr. Ashish Shah and Dr. Megan Ranney of Brown University, Politico's Laura Barron Lopez; former White House economic advisor Austan Goolsbee.
