Good morning. It's Monday, January 9. This week is shaping up to be one of the most consequential of Donald Trump's transition, as senators prepare to consider as many as seven Cabinet nominees in committee.

An Orlando police officer was shot this morning on Princeton Street, just west of John Young Parkway, and the suspect is at large.
