Not to be forgotten, as the President now attempts to take over the Library of Congress:
He did something similar in February when he fired the Archivist of the US.
It's now three months later and counting, and he apparently has notified Congress of his reasons for doing so, as required by law. 🗃️

It has not been the norm for incoming presidents to fire the Archivist of the United States.
The president has the power of removal, but is required to notify Congress of his reasons, as @historians.org pointed out last week.
That notification does not appear to have yet taken place. 🗃️
