OP
I would object to Biden trying to order an arrest as much as trump doing so.

I hope it is something protecting healthcare/jobs/people.

Crimes that come to light should be investigated by non-partisan employees and if there is evidence of them they should be handled the normal way. Either filing charges or taking it to a grand jury.
I dont want to become them.
To answer your question. Biden should have orders prepared to sign immediately reversing all of trumps executive orders. He wont need to fire any cabinet officials. They will leave with trump.

Its either flee or get a dose of polonium tea.
