"But Trump has declined to sign a separate agreement with the General Services Administration that would have given his team access to secure government offices and email accounts, in part because it would require that the president-elect limit contributions to $5,000 and reveal who is donating to his transition effort…
…Trump’s team on Friday formally told the GSA that they would not utilize the government office space blocks from the White House reserved for their use, or government email accounts, phones and computers during the transition.
The White House said it does not agree with Trump’s decision to forgo support from the GSA, but is working on alternate ways to get Trump appointees the information they need without jeopardizing national security. Federal agencies are receiving guidance on Tuesday on how to share sensitive information with the Trump team without jeopardizing national security or non-public information…For instance, agencies may require in-person meetings and document reviews since the Trump team has declined to shift to using secure phones and computers."
Other reporting indicates that they will still not be using the FBI to conduct background checks on potential nominees.

Who are they using? The KGB?
That’s what you call a rhetorical question, right? The kind that you already know the answer to?

The entire thing is ridiculous. And it’s all a-ok with everyone in the government.
The congressionally mandated agreement allows transition aides to work with federal agencies and access non-public information and gives a green light to government workers to talk to the transition team.
…
Transition aides must sign statements that they have no financial positions that could pose a conflict of interest before they receive access to non-public federal information.
I’m sure none of them would ever lie about that /s
That picture may be the only time I’ve seen them both smile and it’s genuinely terrifying.
Biden just really doesn’t give a fuck. Dude spent over a decade complaining about how Republicans didn’t want to be his friend anymore, apparently all he had to do was refuse to hold any of them accountable, and now it’s all fucking chuckles again.
This guy lol
Are you sure these people are US politians?
