CBS News has confirmed President-elect Joe Biden has canceled his plans to ride an Amtrak train to Washington for his inauguration because of security concerns. This comes as the head of the FBI warned the agency is tracking "extensive" chatter online involving potential threats to the inauguration, but despite the security concerns the Biden transition team is focused on its coronavirus agenda with Mr. Biden unveiling a nearly $2 trillion plan to combat the pandemic. CBS News White House correspondent Weijia Jiang joined CBSN from Wilmington, Delaware, to discuss.
