a lame duck or outgoing politician is an elected official whose successor has already been elected or will be soon. An outgoing politician is often seen as having less influence with other politicians due to their limited time left in office. Conversely, a lame duck is free to make decisions that exercise the standard powers with little fear of consequence, such as issuing executive orders, pardons, or other controversial edicts.

Now that Biden’s a lame duck, having passed the torch to his successor at the DNC, what will he do during the final portion of his presidency?

Feel free to add answers, but make sure that your answer makes sense when prefaced with “Biden will do: <your answer>”. I reserve the right to ask for mods to N/A any answers which I determine to be off-topic. As this is likely to involve subjective calls, I won’t be trading here.

Answers will Resolve YES when an action has been reported by the White House, Biden himself, or multiple national US (or very highly respected international: BBC, Al Jazeera) journalistic organizations. Events must occur after market creation. All open answers will Resolve NO when Biden’s successor is officially sworn in.
